"Thank you, Senior Ma Mian, for the treasure. Don't worry, Senior, I will do my best to help you eliminate the ghost troubles in Jianye City." Shen Luo put away the ghost roar ring, bowed to Ma Mian and thanked him, and at the same time solemnly said said.
With a look of satisfaction on his face, Charming Horse took something out of his arms and threw it over.
Shen Luo hurriedly caught it and found that it was a small black plaque, which seemed to be made of some kind of bone. It had a circle of bone-white runes engraved on it, emitting a smart light and revealing a bit of mystery. feeling.
"This is a communication card. Keep it close to your body. I will use this to contact you at any time." said the seducing horse face.
A trace of curiosity appeared on Shen Luo's face. He had seen such a communication device in Fangcun Mountain's classics, which could exchange messages across a long distance.
It’s just that he had never seen such magical items in the Bai family or Chunqiu Guan, so he didn’t expect Ma Mian to be able to pick one out casually.
"How to control this thing?" Shen Luo played with the black card twice and asked.
"You don't have to worry about how I control it. Just accept my message." said the charming horse face.
Shen Luo was a little disappointed, but still nodded in agreement.
"Also, the relationship between us must not be known to outsiders. It will be of no benefit to you. After you help me quell the ghost trouble in Jianye City, I will have another opportunity for you." Gouhun Ma Mian said solemnly .
"Senior, don't worry, this junior will be measured." Shen Luo felt happy and assured again.
The soulless horse didn’t say anything more, and disappeared out of thin air in a flash.
Shen Luo looked at the communication spell card twice more and put it away close to his body. He did not stay here anymore and rushed towards Jianye City, quickly arriving near the city.
Since the frequent incidents of ghosts hurting people in Jianye City, the city gates will be closed as soon as the sun sets, no one is allowed to enter or leave, and a curfew is also imposed on the streets.
However, a mere high wall could not stop Shen Luo. He used his water-bending technique to form a water rope and with a little help, he easily crossed the city wall, entered Jianye City, and returned to the Bai family.
He originally thought that everyone in the Bai family had fallen asleep at this moment, but to his surprise, the accounting room was brightly lit and there were many guests who came to hand over tasks.
But at this moment, the expressions on their faces were different. A small number of them looked depressed, and some even had injuries on their bodies. It seemed that the mission was not going smoothly.
At a glance, Shen Luo saw Chu Li, the bald man who had ridiculed him before. His face was bruised and red, his expression gloomy, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Chu, didn't you go to do the mission in Youshui Village? Are the ghosts there so powerful? They actually hurt you like this?" The young man surnamed Feng said, "Pa" Diyi closed the folding fan and asked.
"Feng Ling, don't mention it anymore. I was tricked by the Lin family's Iron Mountain. That guy took advantage of the fight between me and Li Gui to attack with the Heavy Mountain Talisman. Not only did he steal the mission, but he also injured me. Me." Chu Li glanced.She glanced at him and said angrily.
"Don't be angry. I also met people from the Lin family today, but I didn't let them take advantage. Not only did I steal their tasks, but I also toyed with them, which can be regarded as revenge for you." Feng Ling unfolded his folding fan and smiled lightly.
Hearing this, Chu Li did not feel much better, but instead became even more angry.
What Feng Ling said clearly was to suppress him in order to promote himself, and he had no good intentions.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and a beautiful woman in red walked over alone from the dusty outside. It was Xie Yuxin.
The people in front hurriedly moved out of the way. Xie Yuxin slowly walked to the task table and raised her hand to wave.
With a "click", a broken gray-white jade pendant was still on the table, and an astonishing yin energy emanated from it.
Standing in the distance, Shen Luo's eyes narrowed. The yin energy on this gray-white jade pendant was still on his torn red sleeve.
"The hurtful ghost in Yizhuang in the west of the city has been killed." Xie Yuxin said calmly.
"It is said that the strength of the ghosts in Nayizhuang has almost reached the inescapable stage. Seeing that she is calm and relaxed, and her clothes are not messy, it is estimated that she can be easily killed."
" She is worthy of being the number one guest in the Bai family, amazing, amazing..."
"If I read correctly, this is the second time she has come to pay the task today, right?"
The guests nearby were talking a lot, full of praise.
Listening to the words of the people around him, Shen Luo gained a deeper understanding of Xie Yuxin's strength.
"Okay, okay! Please wait a moment and we'll handle it right away." The two Bai family stewards behind the table looked respectful, and one of them took out the task book and handed over the task.
The other person walked quickly towards the inner hall, quickly came over with a jade box and handed it to Xie Yuxin.
"Xie Keqing, this is the reward for this mission. Please keep it."
Xie Yuxin opened the jade box a crack and took a look inside, with a cold expression on her face. He showed a smile, as if the thousand-year-old iceberg was melting slightly, and everyone around him was stunned.
But the next moment, her expression returned to its usual indifference. She put away the jade box and turned around to continue checking the task list. It seemed that she would continue to take on new tasks.
At this time, Shen Luo stopped watching from a distance and walked over.
When Chu Li saw Shen Luo coming over, he immediately became energetic. The face he had just lost could finally be regained somewhere.
"Hey, isn't this Shen Dakeqing? I remember you took over the mission from Hongye Town, why did you come back so soon?" Chu Li immediately shouted loudly.
"Hey, it's really Shenluo. He came back too soon."
"The mission must have failed. I heard that Ouyang Sanjie of the Lin family also worked on Hongye Town. The mission is over, these three guys are not easy to deal with."
"He deserves it, given his strength., actually went to challenge the Red Leaf Town mission, and it was his luck to come back alive. "Other people nearby also saw Shen Luo and started talking about it, but most of them were sarcastic.
"Shen Luo, do you know the difference between the city we built and the rural place you stayed in before? Don't think that you can survive in the Bai family just by fawning over the two young masters. "Chu Li looked at Shen Luo, finally regaining some confidence, and said with a sneer.
Shen Luo ignored it, walked to the task table in a few steps, and took out the torn sleeve from his arms.
“The mission in Hongye Town is completed, this is the certificate. "He said lightly.
As soon as he said this, the nearby voices suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Luo and the red sleeve.
Chu Li He stood there blankly with a mocking expression on his face, looking quite ridiculous.
Xie Yuxin, who was checking the mission, noticed the movement here and looked towards it.
< p>The two Bai family stewards behind the table were stunned for a moment, and then checked the sleeves."It looks like the Yin Qi core of the ghost, but is it the one from the Hongye Town mission?" , still needs to be confirmed. "A Bai family steward raised his head and said.
"Do you still need to confirm? I just thanked Keqing for submitting the task. Why didn't you confirm it and just gave me the reward? "Shen Luo couldn't help but frown and asked.
