Hearing Baihecheng's straight-to-the-point words, all the guests had different expressions and started talking.
"We have indeed heard about the ghost thing, but the head of the house summoned us, and there must be some arrangements." Xie Yuxin opened her eyes and spoke first.
"Yes. People in the city are now panicked. The government discussed with several of our aristocratic families and decided to gather the power of the whole city to summon capable people and strangers to fight against ghosts everywhere, and issued a ghost hunting list. To encourage you." Bai Hecheng nodded and continued.
"May I ask the head of the family, is this list unique to my Bai family?" Xie Yuxin asked again.
"Haha, this task list is not unique to my Bai family, but is issued by the government. It is available in the Yamen, Lin family, and Du family. The tasks above may be completed by others at any time, so everyone should look at it. Whichever mission you win, you must act quickly." Bai Hecheng said with a smile.
As soon as these words came out, all the guests present showed a trace of anxiety and were ready to make a move.
"Please be patient, everyone. A copy of the official ghost hunting list has been placed in the accounting room. The content of the tasks and the rewarded fairy jade spiritual materials are all marked in more detail. You can do it yourself later. Just go check it out. But before that, Bai has something to say in advance." Bai Hecheng stretched out his hands and pressed them lightly, his expression became serious.
When everyone heard this, they immediately became quiet.
“The tasks on the Ghost Hunting List are rich in rewards, but the contents are also very dangerous. You must act according to your ability. In addition, you are guests of my Bai family. If you complete the task, you must return to the Bai family’s accounting office. Report it, and then the Bai family will go to the government to deliver it," Bai Hecheng said.
Of course, all the guests had no objection to the danger. After all, risks and opportunities coexisted. It was impossible to wait for the reward to be delivered to your door without taking any responsibility. As for returning to the Bai family to pay the task, they all felt that Duty is due.
Only Shen Luo felt a little strange. He didn't understand why Baihe City specifically asked this?
"Everyone, at this time of crisis, I still hope that everyone can work together to overcome the difficulties and do our best to protect and build peace in Ye City." Baihecheng said with a smile on his face.
"Even if there is no ghost hunting list, it is my duty to conquer demons and eliminate ghosts. I will definitely not lose our reputation as the number one exorcist family in the Bai family." Xie Yuxin said He said, and the rest of the people also clasped their fists in agreement.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your words, I feel relieved." Bai Hecheng smiled and nodded.
Then, he ordered everyone to go to the accounting hall, where the details of various tasks had been posted.
Shen Luo also followed the crowd and walked out of the hall.
"Master, are you really not going to tell them about the fight between the Lin and Du families for the No. 1 exorcism family?" Bai Jiangfeng asked after everyone left.
"No, if this matter is leaked, these guests may have other thoughts. I have already understood it secretly, and neither Lin nor DuTalk about it. "Bai Hecheng shook his head and said.
"That's right. "After Bai Jiangfeng said that, he raised his hand and waved, and a piece of white silk appeared in his palm.
The white silk was filled with small characters written in vermilion. It contained the contents of the ghost-catching missions, but it was related to Baihe City. There are some discrepancies in what was said before. After the mission, the rewards of immortal jade and spiritual materials were not marked, only some numbers were written.
“The government is really good at calculating and coming up with the title of the No. 1 Exorcist Family. Complete the tasks on this ghost-catching list, and use the accumulated merit points to calculate the results, and let our three major families compete for the top spot. However, their rewards to the No. 1 exorcist family are also very generous. We have no choice but to fight for the management rights of three popular shops on Xuanwu Street and 30% of the transportation rights of the dock outside the city. "Bai Jiangfeng said with a click of his tongue.
"The government has nothing to do. The ghosts suddenly broke out recently. If they are suppressed in a short period of time, it will have a great impact on Jianye City. "Baihecheng said in a deep voice.
"But what's going on recently? Incidents of demons and monsters causing trouble occur frequently in various places. Is it true that some kind of disaster is about to happen as rumored by the outside world? "Bai Jiangfeng frowned.
"Let's deal with the matter in front of us first. "Bai Hecheng said noncommittally.
...
While Bai Hecheng and Bai Jiangfeng were talking, a group of guests from the Bai family had gathered in the Bai family's accounting room.
In the lobby of the accounting room, there is a wooden list that is about 10 feet tall. The various tasks written on it are arranged one by one, the entries are clear, and they are all in an unfinished state.
Shen Luo stood next to the crowd. Standing in the back position, I stood on tiptoe and looked over, and saw rows of densely written small characters on the list. It was a ghost exorcism mission. The location and reason were all written clearly.
There are more words behind the mission. Various rewards, in addition to immortal jade, also include some spiritual materials and other items.
"There are ghosts in the area of Nanmen Zhuangyuan Bridge. They are suspected to be water ghosts. They are good at diving, have great strength and thick skin. Killing rewards immortals." Two pieces of jade. "
"Liujia Village in the east of the city is haunted. Five people have been injured and several livestock have been plundered. The identity is unknown. The reward is a piece of fire, gold and wood. "
"There are female ghosts crying every night in Liulin Town in the south of the city, and the villagers are frightened..."
Shen Luo's eyes couldn't help but light up, the rewards for the list tasks are really generous. , there are two or three immortal jades, many of which are more than five, which is equivalent to his salary for several months or even a year. Although he does not recognize most of these spiritual materials, they all look extraordinary.
< p>"There are so many good things! "When Bai Xiaoyun saw this, there was also a hint of surprise on his face.When all the guests saw the task, their faces also showed joy.
Although they, the guests of the Bai family, can usually Enjoy some cultivation resources, but fairy jade is very rare. In addition to the normal supply, you can only get it by doing meritorious service for the house. Life is generally very tight. There are so many high-paying tasks at one time like this, but it is really Not often.
Shen Luo looked at it for a while, then shook his head slightly, looked away, and turned to leave.
p>It’s not that he doesn’t want to perform these tasks, but that he is self-aware.
With his current level of cultivation, he may not be a match for those ghosts when doing tasks, which means he is putting himself in danger; secondly, even if he can defeat some ghosts, he may still have to fight. It may not be cost-effective to spend some talismans and other items to come and go.
Now that he is practicing the unknown technique quite smoothly, and he has made two foreign fortunes, he is naturally not very interested in fairy jade and those materials. He came here this time just to gain some experience.
"Why, Brother Shen is not interested in these tasks?" Bai Xiaoyun came over and asked.
"There are too many people in front, I'll check again later." Shen Luo smiled and said casually.
"Why do you, a little kid with hairy mouth not yet fully grown, want to take the risk of exorcising ghosts? I'm afraid that if the ghosts are not exorcised, you will become a ghost first, right?" At this moment, a strange voice came from the side.
