Weird cultivation of immortality starts with possessing a mysterious book
Chapter 55 Acceptance of Missions
Going to class day after day made Gu Xing feel like he was living in the past years of his youth.
But the progress of his cultivation every day, and the occasional weirdness, clearly told him that this was not the original world.
So Gu Xing took classes seriously every day and practiced hard.
During this period, he visited Taoist Master Xun's teacher.
That was an old man, Taoist name Hongchenzi, who lived in a Taoist temple called Xuanyiguan, which was said to have a history of thousands of years.
Because he came from a Taoist temple, Taoist Master Xun called himself a Taoist.
Unfortunately, there are not enough people in the Taoist temple, and there are only three or two kittens.
Taoist Master Xun once thought about letting him become a disciple, and he also told his master about it.
But when Hong Chenzi saw Gu Xing, he made some calculations and rejected the matter with a solemn expression.
He didn't say anything, he just kept chanting:
"Inappropriate, inappropriate."
After entering the Taoist temple, Gu Xing was not that eager to learn from his master, but he just felt a little sorry for Taoist Master Xun.
Not only did he lose his good apprentice along the way, but he also failed to become a senior brother with him.
So, after just a few cups of tea, he said goodbye and left.
As time goes by, the weather gradually gets cooler, and half a month has passed.
His cultivation level continues to improve, and he exchanges points for cultivation resources from time to time. Now Gu Xing feels that he is about to break through.
It's just that relatively speaking, he doesn't have many points left.
Standing outside the Taoist Hall, looking at the appalling balance in the token, Gu Xing sighed and stepped inside.
Entering the Taoist temple, the noise hit you.
For Taoist students, the most common place they go to is probably the Taoist hall, apart from their dormitories, the martial arts arena and the dining hall.
Cultivation requires resources, and for most students without background, earning points by completing tasks in the Taoist Hall is the best channel they can find to obtain resources for practice.
Gu Xing has no background, so naturally he is no exception.
So, he came to the Taoist Hall.
The thing that releases tasks in the Taoist Hall is something like a mirror. Different tasks are displayed on it, appearing and disappearing constantly. Disciples can take them as appropriate according to their own circumstances.
Gu Xing looked slowly from top to bottom.
"If the array dean wants to process the array materials, he needs to understand the formation-related disciples, one point per day."
"There are three five-flowered grass plants missing in the alchemy, and there is a reward of one point."
"..."
The tasks above are diverse, and the publishers are not only Taoists, but also students, and even some people from the outside world.
As long as they can get paid and the task is true, they can issue tasks in the Taoist Hall.
Of course, outsiders don’t have points, so they can only exchange money at exaggerated proportions.
Gu Xing watched carefully and was not in a hurry to take it.
Most of the mission points rewards are very low and the tasks are complicated. Gu Xing will not accept such missions.
After all, it's a waste of time, a small gain at a loss.
He originally thought that the progress of cultivation was not fast enough, so how could he still waste time on those chores.
Therefore, Gu Xing set his sights on tasks with less time and high rewards.
Most of these tasks are dangerous, and many may involve strange encounters.
But for the Taoist temple, they very much encourage their disciples to face the weird, as long as they don't die, the more weird they can kill, the better.
Therefore, such tasks often have high points.
For example, the one Gu Xingzheng was looking at——
"Horses are frequently stolen from the Ning family manor in the outer city. It is suspected to be something strange. Investigate clearly and solve the problem. The task will reward you with ten points."
"Note: There have been no casualties in this incident, but the strange traces are difficult to find. It is temporarily classified as dangerous and strange. It is recommended that disciples at the Qi training stage and above take it."
This mission had just been refreshed, but Gu Xing noticed that several people around him had some intentions.
And after some thought, he found that there didn't seem to be much danger in the mission introduction.
So he quickly stepped forward and snatched the task away.
And as the mission message disappeared on the mirror, those people were also annoyed.
Gu Xing didn't pay attention and handed over the details of the task to the staff at the counter.
The Ning family manor is located in the east of the outer city, and its main responsibility is to raise horses for the people in the inner city.
In this world, due to the strange existence, ordinary horses are actually relatively rare, because it is difficult for them to survive in the wild.
Moreover, practitioners don’t need horses, and ordinary people can’t afford horses. Only some villages and some horsemen still use horses to pull goods and people.
However, in this way, rare horses have become a tool for some people to show their status.
Because of this, the Ning family manor still occupies a piece of land to raise horses in the outer city where land is scarce.
It's a pity that the people in the outer city are still the people in the outer city. They have no practitioners. If something happens, they can only rely on the exorcism department and the Taoist temple.
As for the city defense troops, they only care about people and not about weird things.
Therefore, this task also fell to the Taoist Hall.
After accepting the mission, in addition to the mission details, there is also an emergency talisman.
After this talisman is activated, it can produce special fireworks. All Taoist disciples nearby who see these fireworks need to go to the rescue as much as possible. This is a guarantee for the Taoist disciples who go out to do tasks.
So, after packing up and carrying a package, Gu Xing rented a carriage and rushed to the Ning family manor.
……
"That boy left the Taoist temple again and accepted a mission to investigate the theft of horses in the Ning family manor in the outer city."
As soon as Gu Xing left the Taoist temple, Gu Pingsheng received a summons from Bai Yutang.
Then he went to the top of the tower, looked at the woman in the pool and said.
"Aren't you worried? The outer city is not as safe as the inner city."
"I'm not his escort."
Qingyue said lightly.
These days, Qingyue can stay awake most of the time relying on the effect of Yuehua Pool.
As for the time when he couldn't stay awake, he naturally ran to Gu Xing's side again.
During her waking hours, she was able to repair her injuries using her own methods.
It's just that the Yucheng City Lord's unique attack is like a tarsal maggot, which is difficult to eliminate.
Half a month later, her injuries were only one-tenth better.
However, as she recovers, her subsequent injuries will recover faster and faster.
But at this moment, her expression froze, and then turned dull.
She looked around and saw no familiar person, so she raised her legs and stepped out of the pool.
Then, one step later, he disappeared from Gu Pingsheng's eyes.
Gu Pingsheng looked at her disappearing back and sighed.
But a movement in his arms interrupted his deep thoughts.
The communicator sent a message.
"Dean, the city lord is here to visit."
Gu Pingsheng frowned and then looked away.
His eyes passed through countless obstacles and landed on the entrance of the Taoist temple.
Standing at the door was a burly man, wearing ocher red armor. There seemed to be blood stains on the armor, and he had an unmistakable ominous aura.
And he seemed to have noticed Gu Pingsheng's gaze, so he raised his head and smiled.
"Brother Gu, please stay safe."
But Gu Pingsheng didn't look so good, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out three words.
"Yu Ruyun!"
Yu Ruyun didn't care at all about the hatred in Gu Pingsheng's tone and laughed.
"Brother Gu really hates evil as much as he hates it."
"But I heard that Director Qing is in the Taoist Academy. Why don't you come out and meet him?"
