Beauty and the Bodyguard
4236 Chapter 4234-Lin Yi asking for help
the hong chamber of commerce was indeed a big client. every time they visited, it was a big business. as long as everything went well, the reward for this escort was enough to cover the other ten times. this was a well-known thing among escorts.
but at the same time, high returns often meant high risks. for a top chamber of commerce like the hong chamber of commerce, even in a place like the crescent sea area, it had its own logistics channels.
under normal circumstances, they did not need the help of the escort agency at all. however, once they did, it meant that the escort mission was beyond their capabilities. the difficulty was obvious.
what caused everyone to shrink back was that the destination of this escort was actually saliva peng island!
in terms of geographical location, although the saliva peng island was a small island in the black arc sea area, it was actually the one closest to the southern island.
The southern island was the gathering place of the spirit beast clan. Fierce spirit beasts could be found everywhere, and each of them was extremely aggressive. For ordinary human cultivators, it was an absolute forbidden area. The location of the saliva Peng Island was too close to the southern island. If one was not careful, it was easy to attract the attacks of those spirit beasts.
In addition to the threat of the spirit beast clan, there was an even more fatal threat on the saliva Peng Island, the miasma.
The miasma fog was unique to the southern island. To a certain extent, it could be seen as a combination of miasma and Sea Fog. It never dissipated throughout the year. To the spirit beasts, who had strong physiques and perception far beyond that of humans, it was not a big deal. However, to human cultivators, it was very fatal.
Being trapped in the miasma fog, not only was the visibility extremely low, but it was also easy to lose one's sense of direction. Most importantly, the miasma fog was highly toxic. Even a powerful cultivator would not be able to withstand it if they stayed for a long time.
Saliva ROC Island was too close to the southern island and was covered in miasma all year round. The locals who lived on the island had some immunity to miasma because they had been soaking in medicinal baths since they were young, but it was a headache for outsiders.
Therefore, if there wasn't a special need, a normal person wouldn't be willing to go to saliva Peng Island. It wasn't strange for the bodyguards to show such a cowering expression.
"All of you are the bodyguards of Qitian bodyguard agency. We have never treated you badly. As the saying goes, soldiers are trained for a thousand days, but they are used for a single moment. It's not very nice for all of you to be so polite when the time comes, right?" When Qi Wenhan saw this, his originally sunny and kind face suddenly couldn't hold it in.
The Hong Chamber of Commerce was not only a regular customer, but it was also very powerful. They did not just have business dealings with each other, but also had a strategic relationship that supported each other. No matter what, he could not reject Wei Zhaotong's request. No matter how difficult the task was, the Qitian escort agency not only had to accept it, but also had to ensure that it was foolproof.
Qi Wenhan also knew that this trip would not be an easy one. It was understandable for those in-name bodyguards to shrink back, but the problem was that there were also long-term bodyguards present. Normally, they did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to support them, but in the end, they retreated at the critical moment. How could this be!
Seeing Qi Wenhan's expression, the escorts couldn't help but look embarrassed, especially those who were permanently stationed there. They didn't dare to look at him in the eye. But even so, they were still unwilling to take this job.
"Young master, it's not that we don't want to take it, but we've already promised other goods, so we can't just abandon them." Someone braced himself and replied.
"I can understand that, but it can't be that everyone here is like that, right?" Qi Wenhan frowned.
"Young master, I'll go." At this moment, an escort finally stood up.
"I'll go too. " At the same time, another person stood up.
However, other than these two, there was no one else. These two were both long-term bodyguards. At the moment, they did not have any other scheduled tasks on hand. They were relatively free during this period of time. If they did not step forward, they would lose face. Therefore, they had no choice but to do so.
The rest of the people present, even if they were long-term escorts, as long as they had a valid reason, they would not be willing to take on this kind of job. As for those nominal escorts who could come and go freely, it was even more so. Whether they were willing to escort or not was entirely up to them. The Qitian escort agency could not control them at all.
"Is there anyone else who is willing to go? There are more goods this time, so we need at least four bodyguards to escort them. " Although Qi Wenhan's expression softened a little, he was still in a difficult position.
At least four escorts. This was Wei Zhaotong's request, and also the bottom line to ensure the safety of the goods. However, this escort was going to saliva Peng island after all. It was already good enough for two to come forward. It was really difficult to call for four at once.
Fortunately, these bodyguards were only a portion of the group. There were still many bodyguards who had not arrived. Qi Wenhan believed that as long as the mission was posted, it would not be a problem to gather four bodyguards. He just had to wait for two more days.
Of course, this was a last resort. If the great Qitian bodyguard agency needed two days to gather four bodyguards, wouldn't they be looked down upon and made a joke of?
Qi Wenhan looked around and his eyes finally fell on Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao with anticipation.
After all, according to the rules, Qitian bodyguard agency couldn't force a nominal bodyguard to take on any work. The other people present were all thick-skinned old foxes. Instead of counting on them, it was better to count on the two newcomers.
Lin Yi hesitated. He didn't have much of an impression of the island, and didn't know what the difficulty was, but he could tell from everyone's reaction that it was a hot potato.
If it were any other time, with his always cautious personality, he would definitely not step out and step into this trap. However, on second thought, with his and Huang xiaotao's current situation, it was actually a good choice to take this escort opportunity to go out for a while!
Cheng Kengtian shouted in public, saying that he would keep a close eye on the two of them. Once he was found alone, he would definitely come to cause trouble. With his and Huang xiaotao's current strength, they were definitely not the opponent of his servant who was at the peak of the early stage of the nascent soul realm.
Instead of staying in Qitian bodyguard agency and being unable to leave, it was better to take this opportunity to leave black arc city for a while. By then, even if Cheng qiitian wanted to find the two of them, it would not be easy.
However, Lin Yi still had to weigh the risks of this escort mission. Was it worth it to escape from Cheng keitian's sight?
"We'll go too. " Lin Yi thought it over and over again and finally decided to agree. Huang xiaotao, on the other hand, followed his lead and agreed unconditionally no matter what decision he made.
