Chapter 177 Mission Begins(1/2)
More than a month later.
The Wuzhuang Temple in Wanshou Mountain is surrounded by monks floating in the sky.
Today is the first day of the Jiazi Xiuli Qiankun Trial Task, and the trial content will be updated today. After today, there will be a long time for outsiders to complete the tasks. As long as you complete the tasks, you can learn the magic of Xiuli Qiankun in Wuzhuang Temple.
This is the only two space magic in the world!
Shaoqing, a monk flew out of Wuzhuang Temple. This monk was before everyone looked down at the stone tablet at the bottom of the mountain.
The monks who knew each other saluted and said, "I have met fellow Taoist Lan Yu."
Taoist Lan Yu bowed to the surroundings and said, "Daoists, don't be impatient, I will update the mission now."
His hand pointed at the stone tablet, and the words on the stone tablet began to twist, and new words appeared in front of the stone tablet.
After doing all this, Taoist Lan Yu smiled and said, "The missions of this Jiazi have been updated. Some tasks are only available at one time. I hope that all fellow Taoists will seize the opportunity." After he finished speaking, he bowed to the four sides and left the stone tablet.
At this time, everyone couldn't wait to get on the stone tablet and went to the community to look over.
"Task 1: Go to the Dao Lotus Kingdom to retrieve the Dao Lotus Seed."
"Task 2: Pay 20 kilograms of ghost copper."
"Task 3: Cultivate a lotus pearl."
Everyone looked at each other in front of each other when they looked at these three tasks. Some people felt enlightened, some were confused, and some were scratching their heads.
Zhang Ying whispered to Pei Guoqing next to him: "What do you think?"
Several people who went to the community looked at Pei Guoqing and said, "Let's talk about it when we go back, there are too many people here."
Everyone nodded and drove Yunfei to Zhang Ying's courtyard. Zhang Ying's courtyard almost became a gathering place.
The group sat down, and then Pei Guoqing began to say: "As usual, Wuzhuangguan almost does not give detailed information on the tasks, and everyone depends on finding clues by themselves. Today, Taoist Lan Yu said something, saying that these tasks are one-time. Through comparison, I think only Mission One can be one-time."
Everyone thought about it for a while and found that this was indeed the case. They nodded in agreement.
"But where is that lotus country?" Zhou Wanquan asked the question everyone wanted to ask.
Pei Guoqing shook his head and said, "I don't know much about this, I still need to inquire. As for other things, do you have any clues?"
Several people shook their heads, and Zhang Ying said, "I can ask Qian Luo about this lotus shadow pearl. He is an expert in pearls."
Everyone nodded, so Zhang Ying took out the notes to summon Qian Luo.
Now Qian Luo has lived with Li Yuyao, and Li Yuyao's lotus pond and Zhang Ying's courtyard are not far away, so the sound transmission can be achieved.
Not long after, Qian Luo came to Zhang Ying's courtyard.
Everyone asked him to sit down, and then asked, "Fellow Daoist Qian, do you know what the lotus shadow pearl is?"
Qian Luo was stunned for a moment and said, "Lotus Shadow Pearl, why are you asking about this?"
Zhang Ying said: "This is one of the tests of this Jiazi. We must cultivate a lotus pearl."
Qian Luo suddenly realized that he had not joined in the fun today, so he didn't know the content of the trial. For a fairy like Qian Luo, even if he completed the trial content, he would not be able to learn the universe in his sleeves. There is nothing else, and demons are born with magical magic.
The one who has the strongest understanding of spells is humans. Although monsters are also very intelligent, there are also some smart monsters. However, the magic of Qiankun in the Sleeve is difficult to learn and master. This is why many monsters will not come to participate in this trial. After trying hard to pass the trial, they may not be able to learn magic at all, which would be embarrassing.
Besides, as a fish demon, Qian Luo is particularly insensitive to spells. Otherwise, he would not be even hard to fly. He had no meaning to Qiankun in his sleeve. But he knew about Lotus Shadow Pearl.
He thought for a while and said, "This lotus shadow pearl is a pearl with a lotus blooming lotus inside the pearl. This pearl once appeared in the market and was bought by the men of Wuzhuang Temple at a high price."
When everyone heard him say this, they immediately asked: "Then how did this pearl come from?"
Qian Luo asked everyone: "Do you know how the pearls come from?"
Some people were stunned, and Lan Jingling said even more cutely: "Didn't it grow in the water? I heard that they are all picking beads under the water."
"Yes, it should grow in deep water and between the cracks of the rocks." Xu Zhenru said affirmatively.
Zhang Ying looked speechless. Are these two girls serious?
It’s no wonder these two girls. Xu Zhenru, who lives in Xizhou, is located in a desert with scarce water sources, let alone produce pearls. Similarly, the same is true for the Blue Crystal Ling in Guizhou.
However, Zhang Ying immediately found that the other men were also in deep thought, and he felt a little panicked. No, did these people also believe the nonsense of the two ignorant girls?
Qian Luo's fish eyes widened, and he said helplessly: "Pearls are produced in pearl clams, not in water. Pearls are understood, they are just shells."
"Oh!" The five people and five demons nodded. Zhang Ying was almost choked to death, and these five people really didn't know!
Zhang Ying was a little speechless, but he kept up with Qian Luo's rhythm and said, "That is to say, we want to find this special bead mussel?"
Qian Luo looked at him and shook his head and said, "This is an ordinary pearl, and the lotus shadow pearl does not grow in the pearl mussel, but in the lotus pod. It is said that it is a pearl, it looks more like a special lotus seed. It just looks so similar to the pearl!"
Damn! Then why are you laying so many preparatory things? I have taken you a deviant position! Zhang Ying complained in his heart.
"Then we are going to find this kind of lotus?" Pei Guoqing kept up with the rhythm.
"Yes, not." Qian Luo said.
"No one knows which kind of lotus can produce this kind of lotus seeds, and it's a bit difficult to find this kind of lotus."
Everyone fell silent. It was indeed a trial of the universe in their sleeves, so there was no easy task.
At this time, Qian Luo thought for a while and said, "Actually, some people have a deep understanding of this pearl. His name is Old Man Guihe, and he is a monk at the ninth level of Qi training. You may know more when you visit him."
When everyone heard Qian Luo’s words, they felt excited again. It’s better to have clues than not.
At this time, Pei Guoqing said: "Since this is the case, it's better for everyone to act separately. Fellow Daoist Li and I went to find the news about the Daolian Kingdom. Miss Lan and Wu Yaoyao went to find the news about the Ghost Copper. Fellow Daoist Zhang and others went to find the old man Guihe?"
Everyone nodded and separated.
Qian Luo led Zhang Ying, Xu Zhenru and Zhou Wanquan to advance together. The cave of the old man Guihe was far away from Wanshou Mountain and took a lot of time.
On the way, Qian Luo said: "This old man from Guihe was also known when I was traveling around. He focused on cultivating pearls, while I focused on collecting pearls. I lived near his house for a year and had a good relationship with him."
There are many such people in this world of practice who have no interest in immortality and struggle, but are only interested in their own hobbies. Practice is just to extend lifespan, and the purpose of extending lifespan is to have more time to devote themselves to their interests.
The group flew and stopped and finally arrived at the place Qian Luo said.
"There is a small river bay ahead, where the old man Guihe lives." Qian Luo pointed to a swamp in front of him and said.
There is a large amount of soil exposed in this area, forming a large area of land. However, such land is made of mud, which will sink if you step on it. However, such mud is very fertile and there are various plants growing on it.
At the intersection of mud and water, a river-like terrain was formed. Suddenly, Zhou Baiwan pointed to the front and said, "It's on fire there!"
Everyone looked closely and saw a bunch of fire burning in the river beside the river. Qian Luo immediately said, "That is the residence of the old man Guihe! No, he must have encountered an accident!"
Everyone moved forward quickly and immediately arrived at the fire. Below was a lotus leaf, and a small house on the lotus leaf ignited a raging fire.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou! Hurry!" Zhang Ying drank.
Zhou Wanquan did not hesitate. He took out his true fire sword and waved it to the bottom. The fire on the lotus leaf was absorbed by the true fire sword, and the fire instantly decreased and disappeared in a short while.
But the cabin on the lotus leaf was burning to the point where only coke was left, and everyone hurried into the cabin to check.
A human-shaped coke lies on the ground, but his head and body are separated. This is when I beheaded with a sword and then set off a fire.
"Damn it! Someone took the lead in killing the old man Guihe!" Zhang Ying said angrily.
"They must have not gone far, we will chase him!" Xu Zhenru also said with a bad face.
Zhou Baiwan smelled it and said hesitantly: "The smell is divided into three channels, which one should we pursue?"
Zhang Ying took out a double-level music transmission note and tear it into four pieces. Each of them gave one piece and said, "Let's chase it separately and use music transmission note to contact it. Million points out the direction."
Million pointed to the east, southeast and west respectively and said, "It's these three directions, it shouldn't be very far."
Zhang Ying turned to Qian Luo and said, "Brother Qian is not good at flying, so you can cook his body here. If we don't look back, you can go back by yourself."
Qian Luo nodded.
The three of them left by themselves, and Zhang Ying chose the west side and rode the red tide and chased after him quickly.
The death of the old man Guihe was not accidental. There were not so many accidental things in the world. It must have been done by other people who inquired about the Lotus Shadow Pearl. It is very likely that they had already asked many useful things from the old man Guihe. Killing him to silence him was to prevent other monks from getting information. After all, if one person is missing, they will lose one competitor.
The Red Tide flies very fast and has not been flying for long. Suddenly, the surrounding scenery changed and Zhang Ying plunged into a vast white space.
‘This is a formation!’ Zhang Ying’s heart moved and knew that he had entered a formation.
"Brother is really good at calculating, and someone is immediately trapped." A voice sounded, and a Taoist appeared in front of Zhang Ying. The Taoist was wearing a purple gold crown, a big red robe, a purple lace on his waist, white cloud shoes on his feet, and a green radish fan in his hand. He was smiling at Zhang Ying.
The person he called the eldest brother had a tiger-eyed and wide-breasted forehead, wearing a colorful robe, and holding a copper mace.
"Boy! I think you came from Turtle River, you know so much about Lotus Shadow Pearl. We can spare your life when you say it." The monk holding the fan spoke first.
Zhang Ying did not answer, but looked around. He said, "This is a trapping formation. Unless you break through the formation or put away the formation, no one in the formation will go out. Including you and me."
When the two monks heard Zhang Ying say this, they looked at each other strangely, and this man was extremely calm.
Zhang Ying smiled and said, "Since I can't run away, I'm relieved." After that, he patted Chi Chao's tiger's head and got off Chi Chao's back.
"Boy, it seems that you don't know how powerful I am if you don't give you a little bit of pain." After the monk holding the fan said, the fan in his hand gently swelled, and a strong wind blew towards Zhang Ying.
Unlike ordinary wind, this wind carries the air of fire and dryness, and then the space is suddenly ignited, and a gust of fire wind is formed in an instant.
The wind assists the fire, and with the blessing of the wind, the fire becomes even stronger.
Zhang Ying did not hesitate and vomited a golden wind to meet him.
When the man saw the golden wind, he smiled and said, "What are you wrong with using it? You have to use the wind method. My wind-generating fire will not be blown away by the wind, but will be more vigorous because of the wind!"
He said that, the golden wind blew over, and the fire became even more vigorous. The scorching wind blew towards Zhang Ying, and the pearly golden cloud cover was immediately activated.
