People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 38 Ending
Map shop.

Hai Bodong, who had regained his strength, and Chen Xiao, who had completed the follow-up, had no intention of staying outside the city and returned with Tengshan.

"When does Hai Lao plan to leave Mo City?"

Hearing Chen Xiao's address, Hai Bodong smiled with satisfaction.

This guy used to call me Ice Emperor all the time, how could he be so close to me now?

"I'll stay for three to five days at most. The mayor of Mo City had doubts about my identity before. I made such a big fuss today, and Tengshan has been coming and going these days. If you think about it carefully, you will know that my identity is not simple. If you stay any longer, you will not be able to rest in peace."

Hai Bodong responded with a smile.

He gave up the idea of ​​taking in a disciple and instead made friends with him, and suddenly he felt no more conflicted.

Chen Xiao nodded slightly. In the original trajectory, Hai Bodong's identity had never been exposed, and people often came to him to get close to him. Now that his identity was gradually becoming clear, if he continued to stay, the scene would only become more exaggerated.

"Boy, if you have something to say, just tell me. Although I just lifted the seal today, my strength has also recovered to a large extent. What you are struggling with may be just a simple act in my eyes."

Strength brings confidence. Hai Bodong is no longer an ordinary old man in a map shop. His behavior and speech truly have the aura of an Ice Emperor.

Hearing this, Chen Xiao no longer hesitated.

"There are indeed two small matters that require Hai Lao's help."

"Tell me."

"First, I'd like to ask Elder Hai to go to the place where Queen Medusa took the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire. The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire takes a hundred years to form and a thousand years to become a lotus. The flame originates from the lotus heart. Queen Medusa doesn't know much about strange fire, so I doubt she would take the Earth Core Fire Lotus. The Earth Fire Lotus seeds inside are valuable. If Elder Hai can obtain them, how about we split them 50-50?"

With Chen Xiao’s current strength, he is absolutely unable to go deep into the underground magma.

Therefore, if we want to verify this matter, we can only rely on Hai Bodong, the coolie.

With the friendship they have established over the past few days, and the fact that he would never have gotten it without Hai Bodong, it is only natural that they share the spoils equally.

"Is there such a thing? You, boy, are obviously of ice attribute, but you know a lot about strange fires. I've made a note of it and will go take a look tonight. With my sensitivity to that woman's aura and the correct direction, it won't be difficult to find the place where she entered the underground."

This is a good thing, and Hai Bodong has no reason to refuse.

In fact, even if Chen Xiao did not propose to split the spoils equally, as long as he was willing to speak up, given how much he valued Chen Xiao now, he would not refuse.

"When Ebi takes action, call me."

There is a two-headed fire snake underground.

Now Qinglin has also started to practice. If he can use the Fire Spirit Snake to initially activate the Green Snake's Three Flower Pupils and subdue it, the benefits will be great. He can also get a powerful bodyguard and feel more confident when traveling outside.

You can achieve multiple things with one stone, why not?
"No problem." Hai Bodong nodded in agreement.

"Another thing, that incomplete painting of Hai Lao."

As he spoke, Chen Xiao glanced towards the corner.

Tengshan and Yu Haibodong are not outsiders, so Chen Xiao does not need to hide it deliberately.

"You're really thinking about it! Didn't that woman tell you?"

Hai Bodong was very surprised. He had not forgotten the day when he first met Chen Xiao.

At that time, Chen Xiao was strolling around the store, and Hai Bodong was always watching his every move out of the corner of his eye.

But after seeing the incomplete picture, Chen Xiao behaved no differently from a normal person, so he never doubted it.

Now that I hear that, it doesn't seem to be the case. "To be honest, I do know a little about this fragmented map. It's probably one-eighth of the complete map. The thing recorded on it is also a kind of strange fire, and it's ranked very high. It's definitely not something that a Dou Huang or even a Dou Zong can covet. I'm not very interested in strange fire, but if I can collect all the fragments, it will be a very valuable bargaining chip."

As long as he showed his thoughts about the incomplete chart, it would not be difficult for Hai Bodong to guess that he knew some information.

Therefore, there is no need for Chen Xiao to be mysterious. It is harmless to reveal some information appropriately.

"Haha, you're taking things for granted. I won't hide it from you. This fragment of the map is the cause of my fight with Queen Medusa over ten years ago. After I got it, I studied it diligently for so many years, but to no avail. I also didn't get any information about the other fragments. To increase the possibility, I even split it in two and deliberately put one aside to attract interested parties. But over the years, only you have shown interest in it. What kind of luck would it take to collect them all?"

This is true.

For ordinary people, collecting the incomplete map is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

If it weren’t for a protagonist like Xiao Yan, he wouldn’t be able to find two copies of Du Xuan in his lifetime, let alone get them all.

"If you want it, take it away. I'm almost sick of it. I could draw it exactly the same with my eyes closed. If you're lucky enough to gather all the pieces, just let me satisfy my curiosity when you reveal the answer."

As he spoke, Hai Bodong flipped his palm and took out the other half of the incomplete map, throwing it casually on the table in front of Chen Xiao.

The reason why he could be so decisive was just as I said just now.

It is too difficult to collect the remaining maps, and there is no hope.

Besides, he did remember it clearly.

In addition, he also didn't want to ruin his impression in Chen Xiao's mind.

Chen Xiao bowed slightly in thanks, and without rushing to put away the half of the map on the table, he stood up and walked to the corner to get the other half.

Picking up the two incomplete pictures, Chen Xiao examined them carefully with curiosity, occasionally pulling them hard and letting out a surprised sound.

"Don't bother. The material of this fragment is very special. I have never seen it before. I have tried many methods, such as cutting it with a knife, roasting it with fire, freezing it in water, etc., but none of them can destroy it. Only this black stone ore can split it."

With a "click", a piece of mineral material the size of a palm, like obsidian, fell onto the table.

"What kind of mineral is this? I can't even recognize it?"

Tengshan, who had been silent all this time, became curious and picked it up and looked at it for a long time, but still had no clue.

Who is Tengshan? He owns the Miter family, the richest family in the Gama Empire, but even he couldn't recognize it. This shows how rare this black mine is.

"I don't know. I picked it up by chance when I was out of the city. I saw it was very sharp, so I brought it back and tried it. I didn't expect it could really cut through the remaining map." Hai Bodong shook his head.

Tengshan finished playing with it and Chen Xiao took it over.

Although it cannot be recognized, it is certain that this black mine is very unusual.

After all, Xiao Yan couldn't destroy the remaining map even a little bit when he used the strange fire to burn it, but Hai Bodong was able to split it up, which was an outrageous thing.

Now that he knew the reason, Chen Xiao could barely understand it.

After playing with it for a while, Chen Xiao put down the incomplete map and scratched the black stone ore.

In an instant, the two one-eighth-sized incomplete pictures were divided into four parts, becoming one-sixteenth-sized.

Resisting the urge to strike again, Chen Xiao picked up the four small pictures with a slightly evil smile.

Having gained something from the two things he had just finished, Chen Xiao was anxious to go back and study the advances in his mind, so he stood up immediately.

"Qinglin is probably waiting for me again, Hai Lao, Tengshan clan leader, I will take my leave now, see you tonight!"
