Chapter 198 A Strange Person

On the flying boat, a middle-aged man saw that Su Ren was alone, so he came over and asked:
"Little brother, I don't know you. Are you going to Wanshan City to be a treasure hunter at your age?"
Although he couldn't see Su Ren's face, he could tell at a glance that Su Ren was not very old based on his many years of experience in judging people.
Moreover, most people who go to Wanshan City are there to become treasure hunters, so it's no wonder that others would make random guesses.
Su Ren shook his head and didn't respond.
Seeing this, the big man was not angry and continued to ask:
"How old are you, little brother? Have you ever considered joining a treasure hunting group?"
"Our group has generous benefits and there are dedicated people to guide you to upgrade. You just need to actively complete some tasks issued by the group."
"Don't worry, those tasks are related to your level and are very simple tasks."
The big man said this and looked at Su Ren expectantly.
Su Ren glanced at him, not understanding why this big man was looking for him instead of someone else.
Since he knew that I was young, why would he think of inviting me to join his treasure hunting team?
To be a treasure hunter, you must be at least level five.
Seeing him surrounding him and not leaving, Su Ren said helplessly:
"Do you know a place called Poison Dragon Ridge? I'm going there to do a mission."
"Poison Dragon Ridge? I haven't heard of it. Can you tell me more about it?"
"You also know that there are countless mountains outside Wanshan City. If you just say a name, few people will know it."
Su Ren took a part of the message sent by Manager Liu and showed it to him.
After reading the news, the big man grinned and said:
" Little brother, I have to say you found the right person!"
"What a coincidence! Our group is preparing to organize people to go to this place to collect three-flowered fruits."
"Do you think you would like to join our group?"
The big man took the opportunity to invite Su Ren again.
"No need. I'll pay you for guiding me. Just drop me off nearby."
The big man was a little disappointed when he heard this, but he still nodded and said:
"Okay, let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Laoba, and I'm the leader of the Eight Directions Treasure Hunting Group."
"What's your name, little brother?"
"Su Ren."
Su Ren said calmly.
Anyway, he would definitely be exposed if he acted with them, so Su Ren did not hide it and gave his real name.
"Su Ren? I seem to have heard of this name."
The big man didn't care and continued to introduce the situation of Wanshan City to Su Ren.
There are many forces in Wanshan City. In addition to the official forces, there are also several large treasure hunting groups stationed here.
Generally, when people need to find any rare materials, they will entrust these large treasure hunting groups to look for them.
They are efficient, but their fees are expensive.
There are other small treasure hunting groups or teams in Wanshan City. They are inefficient but charge low fees.
It all depends on whether the client is in a hurry.
After listening to Chen Laoba's introduction, Su Ren asked in confusion:
"Where's your group? Why didn't you introduce yourself?"
When Su Ren mentioned this, Chen Laoba looked a little embarrassed, but he quickly hid it.
Chen Laoba laughed.
"Well, we're almost there. Let's go have lunch after we get off the flying boat. Then I'll take you to visit our group."
"Then I'll take you around Wanshan City in the afternoon, and we'll leave the city early tomorrow morning."
Su Ren looked at his expression and became more confused .
He always felt that Chen Laoba was hiding something, and he regretted agreeing to let him take him to Dulong Ridge.
However, Su Ren did not sense , so he ignored him and walked to the deck to admire the scenery in the distance.
In the distant sky, countless mountains rise and fall, and surrounded by the sea of ​​clouds, it makes people feel like they are in a fairyland on earth.
A square modern city surrounded by mountains appeared in front of Su Ren.
At this time, the broadcast in the flying boat reminded:
"Dear passengers, the flying boat has arrived at Wanshan City. After the flying boat stops and lands, all passengers are requested to get off the flying boat in an orderly manner."
“Have a nice trip!”
"Brother Su, we are here."
Chen Laoba walked to Su Ren and followed closely behind him as if he was afraid that Su Ren would run away quietly.
"Well, let's find a place to eat first."
"Hey, alright!"
When he heard about the meal, Chen Laoba shouted excitedly.
Su Ren looked at him even more strangely.
Chen Laoba also knew that he had lost his composure a little, and hurriedly said with a smile:
"I'll take you to the most authentic restaurant in Wanshan City. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
"good."
Seeing Su Ren agreed, Chen Laoba took Su Ren off the flying boat and walked out of the transportation center.
After turning countless streets, the two finally stood outside a small alley only two or three meters wide.
"This is it. The things in this store are really good."
After Su Ren followed him in, he thought it was a high-end restaurant, but it turned out to be just a roadside restaurant.
"Captain Chen, as the leader of a treasure hunting group, do you usually eat this?"
Su Ren became more and more suspicious of his identity.
Chen Laoba touched the back of his head and said embarrassedly:
"Actually, I only come here occasionally, mainly because the food here is delicious."
"Okay, let's go in and take a look."
The two entered the store. The facilities inside were average, even a bit old, but there were 8 tables in total and 6 of them were occupied, so it seemed that the business was good.
Su Ren found an empty table and sat down, while Chen Lao Ba went to the kitchen to order food.
"Boss, mapo tofu, boiled platinum pork slices, and a golden flower egg soup."
"Hey, Chen Lao Ba, you've become rich now? You're ordering meat dishes today?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, someone's treating us today hehe."
The boss looked out and glanced at Su Ren who was sitting outside, and whispered:
"Where did you go to trick someone into joining your treasure hunting group?"
"Hey, don't accuse me, I'm just showing them the way."
"Please add more platinum pork. I haven't eaten it for a long time."
"knew."
Chen Laoba chuckled again, walked out of the kitchen and sat down next to Su Ren.
After a while, three dishes were served along with two bowls of rice.
"Try this boiled platinum pork slice, it's one of the specialties here."
"Platinum pigs are not cheap. One pound of meat costs tens of thousands."
Su Ren picked up a piece with chopsticks and took a bite. It tasted really good, spicy and smooth.
"Brother Su, I'm not polite."
Chen Laoba rolled up his sleeves and started eating with sweat all over his forehead. He ate five or six bowls of rice in one go, not even leaving out the soup.
After Chen Laoba finished eating, he saw Su Ren staring at him and said a little embarrassedly:
"I didn't eat breakfast, so I'm a little hungry. Sorry."
Su Ren shook his head, paid the bill and walked out with him.
If Su Ren hadn't been too lazy to find someone else to lead the way, he would have just left directly, so why would anyone follow him?
Judging from Chen Laoba's performance, it doesn't seem like something a leader of a serious treasure hunting group would do.
After wandering through various alleys for a long time, the two finally stopped at the door of a somewhat dilapidated courtyard.
Looking at the half-collapsed courtyard wall and the wooden door that was about to fall to the ground.
Su Ren looked at Chen Laoba and said:
"Is this the headquarters of your treasure hunting group that you mentioned?"
