"Hey, Xiaoliu, what do you think the master wants me to do in the meeting hall?" Yuanchu asked in a low voice to Linglingliu in the sea of ​​consciousness.

14: "Replying to the host, this is an important plot, and it is related to the heroine. Some time ago, more than children over the age of in Qingshui Town mysteriously disappeared overnight.

The residents of Qingshui Town asked Kunlun Sect for help, but the sect had sent out two groups of disciples, but neither of them could find out the cause.

In addition, the sect has lost contact with the disciples that were previously sent out in the past few days. The sect is worried that those children and the disciples that were sent out have met with accidents. I guess when Sect Master Yan asked you to go to the meeting hall, he was asking you to go and discuss this matter."

"You mean the heroine is also one of the missing children?"

Ling Ling Liu nodded and said, "Yes, host. According to the main plot, you have to go down the mountain this time to investigate the mysterious disappearance of children in Qingshui Town, find out the truth, and form a master-disciple relationship with the heroine."

At this moment, a line of words appeared in Yuanchu's mind.

Mission reminder: Go down the mountain and accept the heroine as your apprentice. Points reward: 100 points

Yuanchu had a sad face and was crying in his heart. He was thinking that he had just come here and had been a "lazy fish" and "playing rotten" for more than ten days or half a month. Now the plot was about to start so soon. Coming to the world of cultivating immortals, he was just an exploited worker.

The key point is that Ling Ling Liu was still making sarcastic remarks: "Workers, workers' souls, workers are the best. Come on, host."

Yuanchu was speechless about the system's behavior: "You are so naive, refueling, what oil are you refueling, it's almost like leaking oil, you can't refuel at all"

Half an hour later...

Reaching the "main peak"

"Hello, Master Yuanfeng"

"Hello, Uncle Yuan."

When Yuan Chu saw so many people greeting her and bowing, she felt secretly happy. She was just a small employee in the company, but she had never been treated like this. She was very proud of it.

Taking into account the aloof and indifferent temperament of the original body, I cannot be too "ostentatious". If the contrast between the characters is too great and people suspect that I have taken over another's body, that would be bad. It is better to stay hidden.

Yuanchu simply replied with a "hmm" and went straight to the meeting hall.

At this moment, she was wearing a light green symmetrical waist-hugging gauze skirt. Her three thousand black hair was loosely fixed with a white jade hairpin. The light green ribbon around her waist swayed in an arc with the wind, causing ripples in the wind. There was a dot of cinnabar on her brow. Her every frown and smile showed her charming demeanor. She walked lightly towards the meeting hall.

A new disciple exclaimed: "Master Yuan is so handsome, like a lotus emerging from clear water, so beautiful that nothing can compare to her."

Several new disciples also chimed in, "Yes, yes, she is really beautiful."

An older disciple of the Kunlun sect replied: "She is beautiful, but beauties are always thorny, so don't mess with them."

The disciples were puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

In an instant, a large group of onlookers gathered around, and the only thing missing was two benches and a plate of melon seeds.

Come, come, let me tell you, "You don't know that our beautiful lady Yuan, the head of Qingqi Peak, has a very arrogant temper. I remember that a fairy from Guanghan Palace came here a long time ago. For some reason, the two of them had a quarrel. Beautiful Yuan flew into a rage and immediately summoned her natal sword..."

"What are you talking about? Why don't you hurry up and practice. Have you all learned the water curtain techniques that the master taught today?" The head brother here shouted loudly.

Hearing the scolding from the head brother, the disciples were like frightened birds, and quickly returned to their respective seats and stood upright.

"You have time to gossip here instead of practicing your magic. Do you know that in three months, our sect will hold the Immortal Sect Competition which is held once every five years? Then we will see how you can embarrass our sect."

Yuanchu, who had not yet walked far, heard these remarks and quietly asked Ling Lingliu in his sea of ​​consciousness, "I can accept the compliments on my appearance calmly. After all, my beauty is not exaggerated. There were scouts who wanted to pull me into the entertainment industry, but I felt that the entertainment industry was too complicated, so I didn't agree."

"But the original owner's reputation judge is really not that good. And what about the Immortal Sect Competition in three months?"

Yuanchu had just read the entire book in a hurry at that time and didn't understand the details very well, so she could only ask the system.

Ling Ling Liu replied: "Well, this has to start with the original owner's life experience."

"The original owner's father, Yuan Lang, was the previous leader of Qingqi Peak. A hundred years ago, a huge battle between immortals and demons took place. Yuan Chu's father was seriously injured in that battle. After returning to Kunlun Sect, he died not long after. Before his death, he passed on all his life's cultivation to the original owner. After Yuan Lang's death, the original owner inherited the position of leader of Qingqi Peak, so she is also one of the youngest leaders of Kunlun Sect.

After that, the original owner's mother and Yuan Lang were deeply in love and could not accept this reality. She went to the extreme sea a few years ago to seek a way to rebirth for her husband.

Before this, the couple only had Yuanchu as their daughter, so they naturally spoiled her to the point of pampering her. Even if it was the moon in the sky, they would try to pick it down for her."

"But in the early years, when her parents were still alive, she was not so aloof and cold. After her father passed away and her mother also left one after another, when she was only 14 years old, her personality changed drastically. She became more aloof, cold and unkind.

As for the Immortal Sect Competition that takes place every five years, not only will the Kunlun Sect open its doors to recruit disciples, but it will also hold large-scale Immortal Sect Competitions and open Secret Realm Trials, and other sects will also send representative disciples to participate." Ling Lingliu added.

"I see. Let's go and see how they are discussing this," Yuanchu said thoughtfully.

Inside the meeting hall

The heads and elders of all the peaks of Kunlun Sect stood in front of the hall, discussing the matter in full swing.

Gu Huailiang, the head of Yuyang Peak, said, "Master, the disciples we sent to Qingshui Town have been out of contact for several days. There is still no news about the missing children. If we can't find the reason, we won't be able to give an explanation to the residents down the mountain and our disciples, which may damage the prestige of our sect."

Sect Master Yan, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, pondered for a moment, "Well, this matter should indeed be dealt with as soon as possible."

At this time, someone suggested: "Why don't we send another group of disciples to investigate."

"No," an old voice immediately rejected the proposal.

The head of Huazhong Peak, Gan Shifeng, stroked his white beard with one hand and said, "Master, I think we should be careful in this matter and take a long-term view. There are several disciples who have reached the Jindan stage among the disciples we sent out, but the truth has not been found out yet. I think this matter is quite tricky, so we should be careful."

The other peak masters looked at each other, and nodded in agreement, "That's right, we need to think about it carefully."

"Yeah, it's better to be cautious."

Everyone in the hall was talking about how this was inappropriate, but they couldn't think of any other solution.

Another moment passed.

Bai Ming, the head of Kunlun Sect's Herbal Medicine Hall, stepped forward, bowed to Sect Leader Yan, and said in a clear voice: "Sect Leader, our disciples may not be experienced enough. How about you select one or two of our heads and peak masters to lead a few disciples to re-investigate this matter?"

Sect Leader Yan only thought for a moment.

"can."

Then he said solemnly: "Everyone here has a cultivation base above the Nascent Soul stage, or at least has reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, and has rich practical experience. Is there anyone willing to lead the disciples to Qinghe Town to investigate this case and give an explanation to the people of Qingshui Town and the missing disciples?"

Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet.

Everyone who was discussing just now fell silent.

"Well, Master, Yuanchu is willing to petition to go to Qinghe Town to investigate the disappearance of the child."

As soon as she stepped into the meeting hall, more than a dozen pairs of eyes stared at her.

No one seemed to understand why a person who was usually cold, aloof and ignorant of the world would take the initiative to take this task. It was obviously not the style of the speaker that everyone was familiar with.

Everything has its pros and cons, and investigating a case is no exception.

If you do well, it will certainly become a good story. If you do not do well or fail in the mission, it may become a topic of conversation among others after dinner. The world of cultivation has always respected the strong. Only when you are strong enough will others respect and fear you.

Everyone has different thoughts, but some people are vying to be the first to stand out, so why should you get involved in this mess and bring trouble upon yourself?

Yuanchu observed the reactions of everyone present calmly, and no one raised any objections.

"Hmph, a bunch of old foxes," Yuan Chu complained in his heart, rolling his eyes.

About a quarter of an hour passed.

Finally, Master Yan asked in a gentle tone: "Xiaochu, have you thought it over? Do you really want to go?"

Yuanchu replied: "Well, I have thought it through."

"Okay, then the investigation of the Qingshui Town children's disappearance case will be handed over to Xiao..."

Seeing this, Bai Ming quickly interrupted and said, "Master, let me accompany Junior Sister Yuanchu. Junior Sister Yuanchu is still young and inexperienced. If she goes alone, she might suffer a loss."

According to Yuanchu's memory, in the original book, the original body was usually quite respectful to Master Yan.

But he was relatively cold to Bai Ming. In order not to expose his character, Yuan Chu carefully replied: "Don't worry, Senior Sister. I will not suffer any loss."

Bai Ming continued hesitantly, "But..."

But when she turned around and saw Yuanchu's determined eyes, she finally compromised and said worriedly, "Well, then Junior Sister, you must be careful and protect yourself."

Sect Leader Yan finally looked at everyone solemnly and said, "Then let Yuanchu handle this matter. Tomorrow you will take your five disciples to Qinghe Town to handle this matter."

"Okay, let's stop discussing this matter here. Let's all go. Yuanchu will stay."

Everyone: “Yes, Master.”

As the crowd dispersed sparsely.

Yan Youdao, the head of Kunlun Sect, said earnestly: "Xiaochu, you must be careful this time. If there is any problem, report it to the sect. The sect will do its best to help you."

Yuanchu replied calmly, "Well, I will do my best to investigate this case and report back to my master as soon as possible."

Yan Youdao smiled with satisfaction on his weathered face and said, "That's great. Don't try to be too aggressive in everything. Do it within your ability."

"I will not nag you any more. If you have nothing else to do, go and prepare for your trip down the mountain as soon as possible."

Yuanchu bowed and saluted, "Yuanchu takes his leave."

When Yuanchu leaves the meeting hall...

Inside the hall, Yan Youdao turned around and stood in the shadows, as if he was lost in some ancient memories. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Brother Yuanlang, Xiaochu has finally grown up..."

Just as Yuanchu stepped out of the palace door, Bai Ming grabbed Yuanchu's slender arm and pulled him towards him.

Yuan Chu was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at his arm that was being held. Bai Ming reacted, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he let go of his hand awkwardly.

Because of the original body's indifferent attitude towards her, Yuanchu only asked her calmly: "Senior sister, what's wrong?"

Bai Ming had a serious expression and said in a gentle voice, "Junior sister, be careful when you go down the mountain this time."

Then he took out a few bottles of pills and said, "This is Qingxin Pills. You can take it when you are poisoned. It can help clear the toxins from your body."

"This is a marrow cleansing pill. After taking it, it can strengthen your muscles and bones and achieve the effect of strengthening your body."

"This is the Six Void Qi-Calming Pill. It can be taken when you are bewitched by the outside world. It can clear the evil spirits in your sea of ​​consciousness, nourish your positive energy, stabilize your heart, and prevent you from going astray."

"This is the Purple Glazed Flame Tower. It can help you..."

Watching Bai Ming explaining these panaceas like a treasure trove, and comparing her original body's indifference to him, Yuan Chu suddenly became curious about why she was so nice to her original body.

Yuanchu sighed for a while, and opened her red lips slightly: "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Sister. I will accept these pills. I will be careful and return safely during this investigation."

Bai Ming: "Well, you must be careful. There are some urgent matters to be dealt with in the herbal medicine hall. I will leave first."

Although Yuanchu had read the original book, he was still not clear about some of the detailed relationships between the characters.

After Bai Ming walked away, he said, "Hey, Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu, why do you think Bai Ming is so nice to the original owner?"

Ling Ling Liu thought for a moment and explained:

"Well, well..."

"Although the original owner was cold and unkind, Bai Ming was indeed one of the few people who treated the original owner sincerely."

"It may be because Bai Ming's entire family was tragically killed by their enemies when she was young, and your mother brought her back to the sect while traveling outside her home, and took good care of her, and recommended her to become a disciple of the former head of the Medicinal Diet Hall."

"If it weren't for your mother, she would have been homeless. You are her only daughter, and she is no longer around. Of course, she treats you well in order to repay her kindness."
