Chapter 22 [Simple tasks]
In the early morning, Luo Xiao, who rushed over in front of the Qianchi Peak Mid-Level Supervisory Council, bowed to Yinghou Jiping and apologized: "Senior Brother Lao Ji has been waiting for a long time."
Ji Ping waved his hand: "It's okay, this is my responsibility, but it's your injury to Junior Brother Luo..."
Luo Xiao slanted his eyes and looked slightly raised because of the thick gauze. He smiled and said, "It's just a skin injury, nothing serious."
Luo Xiao's shoulder injury is indeed a skin injury, but the wound is cut deep and the blood is also lost. If it is a general fourth- and fifth-level warrior, he will have to be kept for at least ten days and half a month. However, there is no super supplement that can be used to replenish qi and blood, which is a super supplement that can replenish qi and blood. If there is, there will be two. Moreover, after cutting hair and marrow cleaning, the body's self-healing ability is greatly enhanced. Under these multiple factors, after recuperation for only one night, the injury has improved most of the time being. Except for not being able to deal with people for the time being, it basically does not affect normal activities.
Ji Ping looked at Luo Xiao's face, rosy and shiny, and it did not look like he was hurt. He secretly expressed his amazement in his heart and asked, "What do you say from the inspector's office?"
Luo Xiao smiled and replied with eight words: "I deserve to break into a private house."
Ji Ping laughed: "It's time! These wild warriors are lawless. When they touch the disciples of our martial arts temple, they should deal with it like this. It seems that the guys from the inspection department are both annoyed by these wild warriors. Okay, Master Jianzheng and Master Jianzheng are in the yard. Do you go in and report?"
The two of them entered the courtyard while talking and came to the main hall. Ji Ping stopped and stood up, while Luo Xiao stood at the steps of the hall and said loudly: "Disciple Luo Xiao, please see Master Jianzheng and Master Jianzheng."
Pang Yuanfeng's majestic voice came from the hall: "See you in the entrance."
Luo Xiao came in and saluted, but saw that the head of the lobby was in charge of Qin Qianqiu and the supervisor Pang Yuanfeng were already present, with his eyes wide open and staring at Luo Xiao.
Qin Qianqiu frowned and said, "Wei Sizheng from the Inspection Department sent someone to inform you about you early in the morning... What happened last night? Why did a wild warrior come to you?"
Luo Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Disciple will explain to the two masters one by one that as for why wild warriors came to the door, according to the disciple's guess, someone leaked the news that his disciple was on duty on Longyuan Mountain that day."
Qin Qianqiu and Pang Yuanfeng were both shocked. When they looked at each other, those people would know about Luo Xiao’s mission to guard Longyuan Mountain. After thinking about it carefully, there were really many insiders. For example, Yingyangtang, who issued the mission, such as the disciples who took turns with Luo Xiao; such as the patrol deacons and several disciples who went deep into Longyuan Mountain after Luo Xiao, etc. After careful calculation, it was difficult to find out who leaked the news.
Next, Luo Xiao told the truth about what happened last night, but just concealed the matter of Jiao Lin, saying that the two of Bengshan Bear and the Mountain Leopard were forced to search for their bodies, but they found nothing and were about to kill them. Fortunately, another evil guest came at this time, and he was lured to the east, so that the ghosts from both sides could beat the ghosts, and finally he got a bargain.
During the story, Luo Xiao tried his best to aggravate the injuries of the mountain leopard and the mountain bear. According to his description, it seemed that the two of them were exhausted and even an ordinary farmer could knock them over with a hoe.
Qin Qianqiu and Pang Yuanfeng looked at each other, although they felt incredible, they had to believe it. At the same time, they also recognized Luo Xiao's analysis, and someone did leak the news.
After Luo Xiao finished speaking, Qin Qianqiu knocked on the desk, pondered for a while, and said, "In view of your situation, I will give you two choices now. One is to turn into an inner residence and stay in the martial arts hall to ensure safety; the other is to receive an outing mission and stay away from right and wrong. Even if the news leaks and people cannot be found, those wild warriors will have nothing to do."
Pang Yuanfeng also said: "No matter which one you choose, at most you can bear it last month. The city guards will not let these wild warriors stay for too long, and they will be driven away sooner or later."
Luo Xiao's mind was changing and he analyzed the pros and cons. If he stayed in the Xiuwu Hall, it was equivalent to putting himself in an open place, and he would plot as he wanted. Xiuwu Hall was not a military and political important place, and could not stop a skilled warrior. Luo Xiao was not an important figure, he was just an ordinary red belt disciple and would not have any key protection. Therefore, choosing one is a target standing in the light, which was very passive and dangerous. When taking a mission, he turned the light into darkness, stayed away from right and wrong, and could also do tasks, accumulate achievements, kill two birds with one stone, why not do it?
Luo Xiao's thoughts were heard, and he quickly made a decision and bowed to Qin Qianqiu and said, "Disciple is willing to go out on duty."
Qin Qianqiu nodded slightly and called out in a deep voice: "Ji Ping."
Ji Ping, who was standing outside the hall, quickly turned around and saluted the main hall: "Disciple is here."
"Go to Yingyang Hall to get the mission copy."
"Disciple obeys the order." Ji Ping looked calm, but was surprised. This meant that this junior Luo would choose a task? But the self-selected task is a right that only a red belt disciple or above is the right one. How can a yellow belt disciple? But when I thought about it, it seems that it makes sense. The self-selected task stipulates that only a red belt disciple or above can take over, the purpose is to protect low-level disciples. Judging from Luo Xiao's situation at this time, going out to avoid the limelight is the best protection. The rules are dead, and flexible operation according to the specific situation is the correct way.
It should be said that Ji Ping’s idea is correct, but the facts are not that complicated. It’s just that some people have to keep a low profile due to their last resort, while others have to pay favors.
Soon, Ji Ping brought the mission copy and handed it to Luo Xiao.
This is the first time Luo Xiao looked at the mission section. He had no qualifications before. If he didn't look at it, he wouldn't know that the mission of Yingyangtang is very strange, from looking for cats, dogs and pets for people, from killing thieves to keeping safety in the country, from joining the army as a volunteer warrior, participating in patrols and defenses against the Tullers and surrounding countries... It can be said that there are all sizes and everything.
Luo Xiao browsed roughly, calmed down, and began to search for the taskbar according to the indicators he set.
His selection criteria are three points: one is that the time is long enough, at least one month or more; two is that the distance is far enough, at least a thousand miles away; three is that the task is moderate and the merit points are considerable.
In this way, it is not necessary to say that those who look for cats and dogs are looking for. Border defense will turn into border conflicts at any time. In terms of his strength, it is weak, and it is equivalent to committing suicide without authorization. Killing thieves is feasible, but after careful look, he found that the original large-scale layout was a killing mission, but it was all cut out in just half a month, but it was not the red line for completing the mission, but the blue line for invalidating the mission.
Luo Xiao thought for a while and realized that it must be the ones who rushed in from the three cities of Heshuo recently. Because these are mostly reward notices, there are rewards to kill these thieves in the thieves' city guards. With so many warriors from all over the world influx, how can the thieves under the jurisdiction of Heshuo County be unlucky? Perhaps this is also the large number of wild warriors pouring in due to the Longyuan Mountain incident, which brings the only positive side to Heshuo County.
Luo Xiao flipped from the front to the back, and then from the back to the front. When he was raising his chess, a sound of a spirit pigeon flapping his wings came from outside the hall. Then Ji Ping held the pigeon in one hand and held a piece of paper roll in the other hand.
"Yingyangtang has added a new mission."
Ji Ping originally wanted to give it to the two adults to see, but when Qin and Pang saw that the color marked on the scroll was ordinary first-level blue, they lost interest and waved their hands to hand it over to Luo Xiao. As these two people were not red emergency tasks, they could not catch their eyes at all.
Luo Xiao thanked him and took it and saw the task: Go to Baicao City to retrieve the information. The merit: twenty o'clock.
The content is very simple, but there is a lot of information. Luo Xiao knew that it was a city bordering the Tule people in the west of Wuyang Kingdom. He had never been there, but he had studied it in the history of various countries, and was about 1,500 miles away from Yishui City. Since it was a border city and a key border trade site, the martial arts temples in each city had intelligence points there. Under normal circumstances, intelligence summary and reporting were reported every month.
Although Luo Xiao was not very clear about this, he could guess it. He said that this task really meets his standards. The distance is far enough, and it takes more than a month to go back and forth. It is just that the information is handed over normally, and there is not much danger. The merit points are not low. It is mostly because the journey is long and it is a blessing to have it... But he has a question, the distance is not short, why do you need to pick it up and send it by manpower? Isn't it possible to pass a letter from Fei Ge?
Luo Xiao didn't know about this, but Ji Ping was clear about the various affairs around Qin Qianqiu, and said with a smile: "School Brother Luo doesn't know that he does use flying pigeons to deliver letters on weekdays, but it's only for spring and summer, and autumn and winter are not enough. It goes without saying that winter is too cold, and outside Baicao City is the grassland, and autumn is the season when eagle and falcons appear in the four seasons..."
Now Luo Xiao understood and immediately bowed to Qin Qianqiu and Pang Yuanfeng and said, "Disciple, please choose this task."
Looking at Luo Xiao's back as he retreated, Pang Yuanfeng smiled: "Level 1 blue mission, this kid is lucky. He just happened to encounter such a simple and suitable task."
