Mortals ask the immortals

Hu Youwei's laughter led Qin Long out of the small building.

Duan Qing hadn't seen Qin Long for almost a year. Compared with a year ago, Qin Long looked no different, except that he had a more stable temperament.

"Captain, why are you so happy?"

Hu Youwei told Qin Long about the transfer. After listening, Qin Long was stunned for a moment, obviously very surprised, and then showed excitement, but his behavior seemed to reveal a trace of discomfort.

The three chatted at the door for a while, and then returned to their rooms.

Duan Qing stayed in his room for a while, and then received a message from Nan Ying.

According to Nan Ying, this transfer will be led by him personally, and twenty elite teams and five squadron leaders from Gaoque Camp will be selected to officially set off for Xingyunjian in two days.

Duan Qing was excited about this, but also felt that it was expected.

Because of the matter of Tianleizhu, Nan Ying obviously couldn't let him go to Xingyunjian at ease. After agreeing to help him with the transfer of Xingyunjian two years ago, he was probably determined to transfer together.

With Nan Ying's identity, it was obviously not difficult to get this quota.

In Duan Qing's nervous and excited waiting, two days passed quickly.

On this day, Duan Qing and the other two received a notice early to go to the outpost outside the city.

When the three arrived at the outpost, a medium-sized starship of a hundred feet was already docked next to the outpost, and dozens of patrol team monks were standing scattered on the open space below the starship.

In addition to Xiong Yi and She Tai, who had a very good relationship with Duan Qing, some people who joined Gaoque Camp at the same time as Duan Qing were also among them.

For example, the fat man Wu Ma of the Soul Search Sect and Huang Tianye of the Earth Spirit Sect were all outstanding among the same batch.

Duan Qing and the other two found a place to stand at the edge of the crowd and began to wait.

As time went by, more people came one after another.

After about an incense stick of time, there were already about ninety people on the open space next to the sentry post.

At this time, another group of ten people flew from Gaoque Camp and landed directly outside the crowd.

The leader was dressed in the captain's iconic white clothes, with silver hair and an arrogant look. He was the captain Zhu Shaoyin who had recruited Duan Qing in the past.

Behind Zhu Shaoyin, ten cultivators followed neatly. One of them was someone Duan Qing knew, Meng Suwen, a member of the Fire Spirit Bird Clan who was in the same period as him.

When Qin Long, who was next to Duan Qing, saw Meng Suwen, his eyes lit up and he stared at Meng Suwen without blinking.

With Zhu Shaoyin and the eleven people, the total number of people on the scene directly exceeded the hundred mark.

Zhu Shaoyin led his ten patrol team members into the crowd, and then scanned the crowd. Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something and his face suddenly sank.

Then, he slightly turned his head and gave a look to a braided captain behind him.

The braided captain understood and walked towards the crowd, saying loudly as he walked: "I don't know if you have heard that there seems to be a team in my Gaoque camp that has not completed a mission for more than two years!"

After hearing what the braided captain said, most of the people in the crowd looked puzzled, and only a few who knew the inside story glanced at Hu Youwei and others at the edge of the crowd without making a sound.

Duan Qing has basically not appeared in front of outsiders in the past two years, and Hu Youwei and Qin Long also live in seclusion, so very few people know about this.

At this time, the braided captain glanced and seemed to have finally discovered Hu Youwei and others at the edge of the crowd, and exclaimed hurriedly.

"Hey, isn't this fellow Daoist Hu! It turns out that fellow Daoist Hu is also going to be deployed to Xingyunjian this time. I thought fellow Daoist couldn't go this time!"

"Hehe, fellow Daoist Hu is so lucky. He has been idle for more than two years, and he can still have such a good thing. Unlike us, we are born to be tired!"

The braided captain deliberately dragged the tail tone for a long time, pretending to be miserable.

After hearing what he said, no matter how slow the crowd was, they realized what he meant, and all looked at Hu Youwei and the others, most of them with unfriendly eyes.

The team selected to guard the Xingyun Gorge on the spot was able to stand out from the hundreds of teams in the camp, which was accumulated bit by bit by the teams' hard work in completing the tasks on weekdays.

Although the number of tasks in recent years is not large, and the tasks assigned to each team can be described as leisurely, they have at least put in a lot of effort.

Now they know that a team has not been on a mission for more than two years, but was selected to guard the Xingyun Gorge. How can everyone accept this?

This is simply getting something for nothing!

For a moment, the crowd exploded.

"Tsk tsk, strange things happen every year, but this year there are more. Isn't it strange?"

"Hehe, I don't know who he flattered. He has been idle for more than two years, and he can still be transferred to Xingyunjian with me."

"Oh, people are so annoying when they compare themselves to others!"

...

Everyone at the scene almost unanimously ridiculed Hu Youwei's team. Only a few cautious people and several squadron leaders did not participate.

Listening to the sarcasm of the crowd, Hu Youwei's face was livid, he lowered his head and dared not respond, and he was very annoyed.

What others said was right. According to the normal process, it was indeed not Hu Youwei's turn to be transferred to Xingyunjian this time.

But it was not his fault!

He did not go out to perform tasks in the past two years, not because he did not want to go, but because the camp did not assign him any tasks!

Before meeting those Sui people that year, his Hu Youwei team ranked high in the camp. If they performed the tasks normally, they would be qualified to be transferred to Xingyunjian.

However, it is unnecessary and meaningless to bring up this matter now, because it is a fact that his team has been idle for more than two years!

At this moment, Hu Youwei couldn't help but feel like a dumb person eating bitter herbs!

Hu Youwei's silence further fueled the arrogance of the crowd, and the more they talked, the more they went too far.

"Dry tongue!"

Suddenly, a cold roar came from the starship next to them.

Hearing the sound, everyone looked up at the starship, and saw the slender figure in red standing on the starship. Everyone was silent and didn't dare to breathe.

Nan Ying looked around at everyone and snorted coldly: "Humph, if anyone talks nonsense again, cut off your tongue and use it as fertilizer for flowers!"

"Each squadron counts the number of people and quickly board the ship!"

After that, Nan Ying returned directly to the starship.

Nan Ying had already given the order, and the five squadron leaders including Zhu Shaoyin did not dare to delay any longer. They immediately counted the number of people and boarded the starship in an orderly manner after confirming that everyone was there.

Compared with the small starship that Duan Qing got from Lin Ruoming, this starship has no changes in its overall shape. It is still a structure with pointed ends and a slender middle, but the interior space is much more spacious. In addition to fixed seats, there is also space for people to move freely.

After everyone boarded the ship, the shield above the starship lit up, and the huge ship instantly left the ground and rushed straight into the sky, and soon completely disappeared from the eyes of the monks stationed at the outpost.
