Chapter 17 Ordinary People Scheme
Ning Chen and Ning Yong sat by the window on the second floor of the restaurant, monitoring the street at all times.
"Look, Ning Zhuo appeared."
"Let's go!"
The two of them walked quickly, came to the intersection in advance, pretended to meet by chance, and bumped into Ning Zhuo head-on.
"Ning Zhuo?" Ning Yong shouted.
Ning Zhuo looked at the two of them, was stunned for a moment, and smiled: "It's you, Ning Yong and Ning Shen."
These two are Ning Zhuo's classmates.
Ning Shen pretended to sigh: "Since the big exam, we haven't seen each other, it feels like a long time has passed."
Ning Zhuo's heart moved slightly: "Although the time is short, if there are more things happening, there will naturally be the illusion that the time is long."
Ning Yong: "I heard about you. After the big exam, you fell out with your uncle and aunt and were unwilling to accept their help."
"Is it difficult for you to live alone now?"
"What do you do to earn spirit stones to maintain your practice?"
Ning Zhuo hesitated for a moment: "I am currently doing odd jobs in a government workshop. What about you?"
Ning Yong chuckled and said proudly: "We have joined the Demon Hunting Society!"
"We are buying supplies out of the city, and tonight we will go into the demon cave with the seniors of the Demon Hunting Society to hunt monsters."
"How is it, exciting?"
Ning Zhuo opened his mouth slightly in surprise: "You want to enter the Red Flame Demon Lava Cave? This is too dangerous, isn't it?"
"What are you afraid of? What can you do if you are afraid of death?" Ning Yong puffed out his chest and looked disdainful, "At a young age, you should wander around. If you don't take risks, where will the benefits come from? If I don't have money to speed up my practice, when will I be able to build a foundation?"
Ning Shen said: "Don't listen to him blow. There are monks from our Ning family in the Demon Hunting Society, have you heard of the name of Lord Ning Fighter?"
"We entered the cave under his leadership, and tonight is the low tide of the earth flame, so it is very safe."
Ning Chen tried his best to dispel Ning Zhuo's concerns.
Ning Zhuo showed envy.
Ning Yong looked at it and directly invited: "According to me, Ning Zhuo, don't do any workshop work. Just go down the cave with us."
"How many treasures are hidden in the demon cave?"
"How much can you earn in a week? Maybe, you have harvested a spiritual plant in the Red Flame Demon Cave, which is enough for your week's salary!"
Ning Zhuo shook his head, waved his hand, and refused: "My swordsmanship subject scores have always been hovering in the middle and lower grades. It's too dangerous to fight monsters, I can't do it."
"Coward!" Ning Yong stared and was about to speak.
Ning Shen stopped it with his eyes, smiled and said to Ning Zhuo: "If I were you, Ning Zhuo, I would go back and admit my mistake to my uncle and aunt, let them ask me to have a relationship, and send me into the family business. This treatment is definitely better than the work outside!"
Ning Zhuo immediately shook his head, showing his youthful side, and said in a firm tone: "Since I have already made this point, I will never bow my head like this."
Ning Shen chuckled: "Then if I were your uncle and aunt, what would you think when you saw you so down that you begged for a living in an inconspicuous small workshop?"
"Maybe I'm thinking: Look, this Ning Zhuo doesn't know the height of the sky, without our help, he can only live in hardship, and gradually become the lowest level among the monks!"
Ning Zhuo suddenly frowned, his face darkened, as if his defenses had been broken.
Ning Shen smiled from the bottom of his heart and continued to work hard......
After a while.
Looking at Ning Zhuo's departing back, Ning Yong said: "Ning Zhuo's grades are better than the two of us, but what's the use of this? He didn't easily fall for our excitement and promised to act with us tonight."
Ning Shen sighed: "Ning Zhuo, like the two of us, is an ordinary person."
"Think about it differently, if I were him, I would also be scheming."
"Alas......
Ning Yong saw that his companion was in a low mood and comforted him: "Although Ning Zhuo is our classmate, we have now belonged to Lord Ning Fighter. This time it was the order given to us by Lord Ning Zhan Ji himself. What is this kind of classmate relationship compared to our future? We are not familiar with him on weekdays!"
Ning Chen shook his head slightly: "Forget it. In this way, we can finally give an explanation to Lord Ning Fighter."
"Let's go."
In the evening, Ning Zhuo came to the meeting point alone.
Ning Yong smiled and led him in.
Ning Chen took him and came to the front of Ning Fighter.
Ning Zhan Ji was a middle-aged strong man with a burly figure and slender eyebrows. He looked Ning Zhuo up and down, expressionless: "Since they are all members of the Ning family, then I will take care of you this time and arrange for you to join the team."
"But remember, all actions are subject to my orders and arrangements."
"Junior understands!" Ning Zhuo hurriedly said.
In Ning Zhuo's mind, the information about the Ning fighter quickly crossed the aircraft.
Many years ago, the Ning family began to consciously send monks outward to various organizations inside and outside the Fire Persimmon Immortal City.
Ning Fighter is one of them.
他本身戰力很強，行事果斷，堪稱雷厲風行。他能夠在戰場中抓住稍縱即逝的戰機，因此嶄露頭角，是一位將領型的人物。
This time, Ning Zhanji was entrusted by Ning Zhen to accept the latter's money, so he sent Ning Chen and Ning Yong to provoke Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhanji looked at Ning Zhuo, then withdrew his gaze and assessed in his heart: "The three layers of qi refining are ordinary."
Soon, the personnel gathered, more than fifty people in total.
Among these people, the vast majority of them are surnamed Ning. A small number of outsiders are also closely related to the Ning family.
The Ning fighter led everyone and began to march towards the Red Flame Demon Lava Cave.
Fire Persimmon Immortal City is a typical mountain city.
The vast majority of buildings in the city are concentrated halfway up the mountain. The further you go to the center of the city, the higher the terrain, and the most central is the crater at the top of the mountain. The further you go around, the lower the terrain becomes, and it is the foot of the mountain that stretches out.
Ning Zhuo and his party climbed all the way up from halfway up the mountain. We passed through several checkpoints along the way, and the inspections were also very loose, and we finally reached the top of the mountain.
At the top of the mountain, the aura was obviously dense and scorching.
The air is filled with the smell of sulfur and is quite pungent.
Even though it was night, the crater was always filled with bright fire. With the help of the light, Ning Zhuo saw bursts of white smoke floating over the crater.
In this white smoke, many smoke larks flew around, rushing in and out.
Ning Zhuo and the others came to the edge of the volcano.
Looking down, you can see a wide, flat rocky area in the crater.
The crimson rocks are always emitting scorching heat. Some red rocks are closely connected, while others have gaps between the slabs, and under the gaps are flowing, bright orange-red magma. There are also holes in the rocks.
Some caves spew flames from time to time, some caves flow out of magma, and some caves are bottomless, which is a road that leads deeper underground.
The mountain wall and the rocky ground are almost at a vertical angle, and the surrounding mountain wall is glass-colored and unusually smooth. This is obviously artificial, and the entire crater is like a huge open cup.
Going to the center, Ning Zhuo found that the number of holes on the surface of the red rock was increasing, and the size of the holes was getting bigger and bigger.
Eventually, his gaze was fixed on the very center of the rocky land.
There, there is a magma lake.
