In just one month, with the help of the strong east wind of Charming Horse Face, he completed six or seven tasks one after another. Most of them were ghosts in the inedia stage or above, and the number was often more than one, because the ones to the back were , the relatively easy tasks have been completed long ago, and the rest are naturally difficult bones to crack.
Although his cooperation with Charming Horse Face was relatively secretive, over time, some clues were naturally discovered, and rumors began to spread that there was a master behind him to help, which is why it always went so smoothly. Complete the task by leapfrogging the level.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with this. With his cultivation in the middle stage of Qi Refining, how could he really fight against many ghosts that far exceeded his own cultivation, so he did not give any explanation for this.
No matter what, he was completing the task on the surface, and with such a high completion rate, Shen Luo's reputation spread not only throughout the Bai family, but even among the Lin and Du families. , and gradually became famous.
......
In a study in the inner courtyard of the Bai Mansion, Bai Hecheng, wearing a navy blue robe, was sitting behind the desk, listening to Bai Jiangfeng's report with a solemn face, his brows furrowing. The deeper.
“Master, the number of tasks completed by our Bai family has already steadily surpassed that of the Lin family and the Du family. No one family alone can match us. It’s just that the Lin family seems to have begun to spend a lot of money recently. Yes, I borrowed a few casual cultivators from somewhere at a high price to help me complete several tasks, which has greatly narrowed the gap between us," Bai Jiangfeng said, standing across from the desk.
"When looking at the Lin family, you can't just look at it from a single perspective. The Du family has been secretly communicating with the Lin family over the years, and I'm afraid they are wearing the same pair of pants this time. Beware of the Du family and the Lin family. The Lin family has completely formed an alliance and transferred some merit points to the Lin family, otherwise we will probably be caught off guard when the time comes," Baihecheng said after thinking for a moment.
"What the head of the family said is true, and I am also worried about this. Those guests from the Du family will only need to claim that they are working for the Lin family, and then all the merit points will fall into the Lin family's pockets and surpass us. It's not impossible for the Bai family," Bai Jiangfeng said with deep understanding.
"Third uncle, if you continue with your instructions, we will also increase the remuneration and encourage the guests at home to do as much as possible and take on more tasks. In addition, I will also send a letter to Dao Zhang Jiang of the Atomization Sect, Let's see if we can ask the elders from the sect to come over and help." Baihecheng said after thinking for a moment.
"There are fewer and fewer tasks on the list, and we don't have much time left. I'm afraid the distant water cannot quench the near thirst." Bai Jiangfeng responded, turned around and wanted to leave.
"Is anyone from the Lin Du family responsible for the task at Hidden Wind Valley on the southern outskirts of the city?" Baihe City stopped Bai Jiangfeng and asked suddenly.
“This mission is too dangerous, ranking first in difficulty among all missions, and the merit points recorded by the government are also the highest, almost equal to the total rewards of the following major missions. Although the Lin and Du families have good intentions, But he didn't dare to take this risk," Bai Jiangfeng replied.
"As long as we can complete this taskEven if the Lin and Du families unite, the merit points they gain cannot exceed us, right? Baihecheng raised his brows and asked.
"Coupled with the tasks we have completed, they will no longer be able to win... Family leader, are you planning to take over the Hidden Wind Valley task?" "Bai Jiangfeng said hesitantly.
"No matter what, our Bai family cannot lose to the Lin family. "Baihecheng said word by word.
"Master, the situation in Hidden Wind Valley is complicated. This task may not be easy to complete, and I'm afraid there will be a lot of damage by then. "Bai Jiangfeng said hesitantly.
"The government has come up with this ghost eradication task list this time. Firstly, it is to stabilize the situation that has become increasingly unstable recently. Secondly, it is also to see the background of each family in the city and the winner. The benefits are definitely more than what’s on the surface. So don't be afraid of losses, as long as you win, you will be able to make up for it. "Baihecheng said this.
"It is the head of the family who has thought carefully. "Bai Jiangfeng nodded and said.
"The third uncle's concerns are not unreasonable. We must plan well and minimize losses as much as possible, so that we can achieve great things with small things. Does Third Uncle have any ideas about the candidates to participate in this mission? "Baihecheng asked again.
Bai Jiangfeng thought for a moment and reported the names of several people. Baihecheng heard them and nodded in agreement.
"This mission, It's best to bring Shen Luo with you. "Finally, Bai Jiangfeng said again.
"Shen Luo... I've also heard that he has been performing very well recently. There should be someone behind the scenes helping him. After all, his own cultivation level is still a bit low. If he enters Hidden Wind Valley, the risk of falling is not small. " Baihecheng said hesitantly.
"The person behind him is definitely not low in cultivation. If he can help, it will be a big help for the trip to Hidden Wind Valley. As for safety, as long as he doesn't rush to the front to face the ghosts, with his talent in the talisman and his weird body skills, he should be able to protect himself. "Bai Jiangfeng said.
"If that's the case, we really have to let him take the risk. Regarding this mission, before actually putting it into practice, try to be as low-key as possible, just in case. " Baihecheng groaned.
While the two were talking, bursts of "bang" sounds suddenly sounded outside the house. A thunderstorm that had been pressing on the city for half a day finally opened a hole and rained down.
p>In the small courtyard, Shen Luo looked at the white light flashing from time to time among the clouds in the sky, as if he were a hard-working old farmer staring at a golden field, his eyes full of joy
The task he completed some time ago allowed him to earn a lot of fairy jade, and he also bought a lot of talismans and spiritual materials from the Lubao Hall. Due to the lack of thunder and rain, he could not draw the thunder talisman, so he could only keep trying. Drawing other talismans.
In the end, he consumed more than 20 pieces of Ziyun talisman paper to draw a flying talisman, which made him feel sore for several days. It was easy to catch a thunderstorm, so he immediately took out the blue frost paper and brush and ink, and began to draw the rising and falling thunder symbols.
He continued to work until evening, when the sky was getting dark.In the dark, the thunderstorm subsided, and Shen Luo's work of drawing symbols stopped.
Nearly sixty of the seventy-two green frost talisman papers were used, but only two thunder talismans were successfully drawn. In terms of success rate, it has improved a lot compared to before.
Although Shen Luo was almost paralyzed by exhaustion, he felt quite relieved in his heart.
Early in the morning two days later, Shen Luo was meditating and regulating his breath. Suddenly, he received a message from Ma Mian, asking him to meet outside the south gate of the city quickly. He neither mentioned the location of the mission nor made it clear. Task content.
Although Shen Luo was full of suspicion, he had no choice but to stop practicing, left the Bai Mansion, and hurried to the south of the city.
As a result, as soon as he left, Bai Jiangfeng arrived at his small courtyard. He shouted but no one answered. After asking the guards at the gate, he found out that Shen Luo had gone out.
Bai Jiangfeng originally came to inform him that he would set off with the team at noon tomorrow to perform a mission in the Hidden Wind Valley, but he didn't expect that Shen Luo had just left, so he missed the opportunity.
