Host No. 7749’s Law of Mission Failure

"What did you say."

The old man happily held two silver dollars in his pocket, "Hey, hey, now that I have the wine money, I can go out and hang out for a while again... eh?"

The old man looked at the girl and said, "Girl, have you changed your mind and asked me to tell your fortune?"

Lu Jian pursed his lips and frowned, "What do you mean, staying away from fellow countrymen?"

You can spy to this extent.

This old man might really be capable of something.

No, not maybe.

"That's the literal meaning~" The old man spread his hands, "If you get close, there will be blood and omens. If you stay away, your life will be smooth. Don't have inappropriate thoughts and don't touch unintentional things. You may be able to go home smoothly."

Lu Jian looked at him steadily for a few seconds, which made the old man touch the tip of his nose guiltily, "What, what are you doing?"

You won't be caught asking for more money, right?

Lu Jian lazily raised his eyes, "Senior, do you have a title?"

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, "This is it."

Okay, okay, I'm not asking for the drink money back.

Then he patted his chest proudly and said, "My nickname is Toyomi!"

[Check, is this person in the plot? 】

Ning Qi came back after a while: [No. 】

Lu Jian took a breath and didn't stay any longer. He got on his horse and drove towards Fengtou County again.

*

It was already noon when we arrived in Fengtou County.

She stopped at a post station, and the waiter took the horse behind to feed the grass, while Lu Jian kept running towards the valley to the north.

It's quite fast to throw down the horse and use Qinggong.

She jumped down from the tree and looked at the mountain village in front of her.

This is already the foot of the mountain.

Goulian Cliff is a natural chasm that opens between mountains. It is narrow and thousands of meters deep. It is also called Ghost Valley.

It receives very little light, and it is located in the north and high, which meets the conditions of a cold place. When you go up there, the temperature is almost 3,4 degrees Celsius.

Lu Jian smacked his lips and started climbing the mountain resignedly.

There are large tracts of ginkgo trees on the mountain. The half-yellow and half-green leaves are falling, and layers of thick leaves are piled up. As you walk, you can vaguely see a few ginkgo trees, which are as gorgeous as a bright gleam in this vast forest. The embellishment has a beautiful scenery that makes people trance.

As the steps progressed, accompanied by the rustling of the branches in the cool breeze, a vague white mist gradually filled the air, making it difficult for people to see the road in front of them.

The girl kept walking and kept walking forward without looking back.

The road up was getting steeper and steeper, and there were fewer and fewer trees on both sides. She grabbed a stone, looked at the mountain that was almost tilted at 60 degrees, and frowned slightly.

Her climb was not smooth.

Goulian Cliff is located in a cool and arid location. Logically speaking, there is no such thing as moss.

The surrounding white fog interfered with her vision. The girl turned back and looked down. There was a vast white fog, and she could even see the tops of other mountains. A sunset hung in the west, looming in the fog, and disappeared behind the mountains, leaving behind a Orange glow.

It's such a beautiful place.

The girl lost her grip and almost slipped down. Lu Jian quickly grabbed an ivy clinging to the tree above and avoided the fate of falling.

After a long time, at the top of Goulian Cliff, a hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed the edge of Goulian Cliff. Lu Jian pushed hard with his feet and finally climbed up.

She lay there like a dead dog for a long time, then supported her body with her arms and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

She had already memorized the appearance of Lingsi Kecao, but after looking for it on Goulian Cliff for a long time, she could not see any trace of Lingsi Kecao.

Lu Jian pursed his lips and made a bold and useless decision.

She went down and pulled some ivy up, tied it around her waist, and went down to Goulian Cliff to look for it.

Goulian Cliff is the natural chasm of the Ghost Valley, a huge vertically deep crevice, and Lu Jian climbed up from the windward slopes of the mountains on both sides of Goulian Cliff.

She tied one end of the ivy to the tree and went down to search carefully inside and out.

Nothing was gained.

Expected.

"Fuck me." Lu Jian was so angry that he almost cursed.

So what's the use of her coming here?

[Host, don’t be discouraged~] Ning Qi suddenly said.

Lu Jian was really tired, so he found a stone to lean on, looked at the dim sky, and prepared to spend the night on it.

Lingsi Kecao is a fairy plant, and it should not be found too easily.

She relaxed and her mind began to think wildly again.

In the lower world, there are warlocks, ghosts, demons, and some thin spiritual energy.

Except for warlocks, she has never encountered ghosts or demons, but this does not mean that there are none. Warlocks live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and demons cannot escape from the world. Even ghosts are hiding.

Until now in this world, she has never clearly done a villain mission.

According to the route given in the plot, she and Xu Chaochao returned to the Xu Dynasty 1,200 years ago. Later, she would fail to assassinate the male and female protagonist and die, and Xu Chaochao would separate from the male protagonist and return to modern times.

Needless to say, to leave you must find "painting".

It is not yet known whether it was the landscape paintings that she studied at the beginning or the beauty paintings that were hung in the main tomb. She personally prefers the latter.

Suddenly, Lu Jian was startled, as if he remembered something.

Unnecessary thoughts, unintentional things, what are they?

How could she have inappropriate thoughts? Are you going against the heroine?

It's somewhat possible.

Going against the heroine will not end well.

What is the unintentional thing?

Will it be a painting?

Lu Jian looked at his hands, a little confused.

It felt like the incomplete plot this time was like a layer of fog covering the road ahead, making her a little confused.

Finally, Lu Jian suppressed the doubts and annoyance in his heart and tried his best to fall asleep.

I'll continue my search tomorrow.

So, I hate charades the most.

**

[Small record in Ning Qi’s diary. 】

[July 7, sunny

Today is the second day that the host has been looking for the broken grass. The host still hasn't found it. The host is going crazy. 】

[July 7, light rain

Who would have thought that it was raining in this poor place, and there was no way I could find it, even though I felt like I couldn’t find Ning Qi even if I looked for it. 】

【July 7th, cloudy

The host finally no longer plans to look for that crappy grass in this crappy place, eh~]

Lu Jian jumped down from the windward slope of Goulian Cliff, facing a nearly vertical height, and used Qinggong to jump down from the footholds.

The slope gradually became gentle, first 60 degrees, then 40 degrees, then 15 degrees, and then gradually became gentle.

She also stopped using the jumping method and switched to walking.

It took her four hours to go up the mountain, but it only took her four-quarters of an hour to go down. She walked on the path she had walked before, going empty-handed and coming back empty-handed.

Since the task still needed to be completed, she did not return to the inn first. Instead, she glanced at the village at the foot of the mountain and strode towards the village.

An Qi said that the first person who discovered Lingsi Kecao was a farmer, and he probably lived in the village at the foot of the mountain. If he couldn't get a new one, it wasn't like he couldn't take the original one away.

……

When she got closer, she saw a group of people gathered in front of the village.

He frowned.

The leader was a young man in green clothes, and the goose-yellow figure behind him looked particularly familiar.

Lu Jian was not too surprised.

Ever since An Qi said that the so-called Master Tang was here, she felt that Master Tang might be an important person.

As long as it was related to painting, Xu Chaochao would not let go of this possibility.

After all, she has only one goal, and that is to find the painting and go back 1200 years in the future.

Some people over there also saw her and looked over here.

Xu Chaochao also turned her head and looked this way. At that moment, a strong light burst out from her eyes.

Lu Jian touched her face, a little confused. Is there something on her face?

Until the girl's surprised voice came over, "Sister Lu?!"

Lu Jian: "..."

She remembered that there must be something missing from her face——

She wasn't wearing a hijab.
