Chapter Twenty-Five: Giving Yourself a Task for Your Coming-of-Age Ceremony
Bai Lingfeng soon came to the Hall of Transmission of Gong, he turned a corner at the main gate, and found the place where Yue Xiaoyang said that he could take the task.
Bai Lingfeng walked over, and in front of him was a large table ten meters long, with five elders sitting side by side, and opposite the five elders, there were five teams, all of whom were queuing up to hand in tasks.
Delivery tasks need to be queued because they need to be audited for completeness and authenticity.
It is convenient to take the task, and it can be said that you can choose from it.
In the sky behind the five elders sitting, countless scrolls floated in mid-air.
The outside of the scroll has an area with the mission written on it, and as for the content of the task, you can only see it when the scroll is opened.
Bai Lingfeng muttered in his mouth: "Stone Claw Mountains, Stone Claw Mountains, Stone Claw Mountains...... Mountains! Hey! Found it!"
Although these scrolls were far away from him, the monk's eyes, ears, mouth, nose and seven orifices had already been opened up as early as when he had just condensed his true qi and had just stepped into the condensing realm. Therefore, these scrolls are not big, and the fonts recorded on them are not large, and they are far apart, but Bai Lingfeng still saw it very clearly, and quickly found the scroll he wanted.
Bai Lingfeng was stunned and embarrassed.
He suddenly remembered that he didn't know how to take on the task. Moreover, he has rarely communicated with people for many years, and he does not dare to take the initiative to ask his senior brothers for advice at this moment.
He's not afraid of people, he just doesn't know how to get along with people.
In desperation, when someone came to take over the task, he secretly observed and learned.
But after waiting for a quarter of an hour, the people on the scene were either queuing up to hand in the task, or they actually got together to chat, and no one came to pick up the task.
Bai Lingfeng turned around his head and said in his heart: "There is no reason, looking at those people who are queuing up to hand in the task, there are so many people, under the cycle, there should definitely be more people who take the task than the person who hands in the task, why is there no one to take the task now?"
But things cannot be delayed, and he was "entrusted with a heavy task" for the first time, and there is no room for error. So he planned to pluck up the courage to ask his fellow doormates at the scene.
At this time, he heard a girl's voice calling him: "Senior Brother Bai, it turns out that you are here, I finally found you!"
Who? It's not Senior Sister Yue's voice, and Senior Sister who knows me?
Bai Lingfeng turned his head to look over, and at first glance he saw the senior sister who greeted him. A woman in front of him was walking towards him, with red hair, dressed in the outfit of a disciple of the Divine Sword Sect, with a red collar, belt, wrist guards, and shoes.
A true disciple with a flamboyant personality, a hot body, and bold clothes, Deng Qiushuang.
The clothes are really bold, and the costumes of the Excalibur Gate are tightly wrapped. Deng Qiushuang is different, her clothes have an opening below the collar, revealing half of her heart, and the interlocking bones are clearly visible. There were no trousers in the skirt, and a pair of slender and sturdy long legs loomed as they walked, attracting most of the attention.
Seeing that it was Deng Qiushuang, Bai Lingfeng was so frightened that he subconsciously took two steps back. In the face of Liang Runheng, in the face of Tao Hanting, or in the face of the siege of four ordinary disciples, he never flinched half a step.
But when he saw Deng Qiushuang, his deliberately sealed memory was awakened again, which was a stain on his life!
In a sense, this Deng Qiushuang is more terrifying than Han Haolin!
Deng Qiushuang's body was extremely fast, after he finished shouting Bai Lingfeng, Bai Lingfeng only had time to take two steps back, she had already come to Bai Lingfeng, and the two faces were only a finger away from each other.
She was smiling and carefully looking at Bai Lingfeng's face, but Bai Lingfeng didn't dare to move at the moment, and cold sweat broke out.
Bai Lingfeng and Deng Qiushuang were so close, he subconsciously looked at the same door around him. The senior sisters and sisters were only curious, but the eyes of the senior brothers were full of murderous aura.
In the end, Deng Qiushuang stood up straight, put her hands behind her back, one of her feet reached behind her back and tapped the ground with her toes, looked sideways at Bai Lingfeng, and said, "Senior Brother Bai, you have grown up, although you are not as cute as before, but you are more beautiful." ”
Bai Lingfeng carefully moved his body to prevent himself from touching places that he shouldn't touch, and then squeezed out a smile and said, "Senior Sister Deng, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Deng Qiushuang puffed out her cheeks when she heard this, frowned slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Senior Brother Bai, you are outside again, I like to hear you call me like that before." ”
Bai Lingfeng coughed twice in embarrassment, and said solemnly: "Senior sister, we have grown up. When I was a child, I stopped playing those games anymore. ”
Deng Qiushuang seemed to be frightened, but soon said with a touched face: "Yes, we have all grown up." ”
Then the conversation changed and said: "But no matter what, when you called me sister, you will be protected by me for the rest of your life, my lovely ...... Sister ~ Sister ~!"
"I still have the dress you wore before, but you can't wear it anymore. Ah, by the way, my sister has learned a lot of braiding methods over the years, and I will help you tie it again when I go back to buy you a new dress. Do you still like your old braids? But this time you have to be good, if you run away, your sister will catch you again. ”
Bai Lingfeng's dark memory was still awakened, at that time he was treated as his sister by Deng Qiushuang, dressed him in a skirt and a beautiful braid, and dressed up as a very beautiful and cute little girl.
Later, Bai Lingfeng escaped, but was chased by Deng Qiushuang. Under Bai Lingfeng's constant crying and struggle, she pulled Bai Lingfeng's braid and dragged it back to her residence for a few hundred meters.
Bai Lingfeng thought of the unbearable past, couldn't help but shudder, and immediately hugged his fists at Deng Qiushuang, and said: "Senior Sister Deng, I made an appointment with someone today to go out to practice, and I came to take over the task, so I don't have time to play with you, so I will leave." ”
Deng Qiushuang said: "Oh, you're here to take over the mission." Then wait a minute, I didn't find you just now, I just heard that today's master seems to be going to hold a relatively large ceremony, and a lot of various things are needed. Wait a minute, someone will come to issue a new task, and this matter is in a hurry, and the reward of the task will be increased by 30%!"
Her father is Bai Danyan's personal disciple, and the ancestor in her mouth is naturally Bai Danyan.
Bai Lingfeng immediately understood when he heard this, and said in his heart: "No wonder none of the surrounding peers took the task, and they got together and refused to leave, it turned out that they were waiting for a new task." But then again, what kind of ceremony is Grandpa going to do?
Deng Qiushuang saw his thoughtful appearance and asked, "By the way, Senior Brother Bai, where did you make an appointment with someone to go to practice?"
Bai Lingfeng didn't think much about it, and replied, "Stone Claw Mountain Range." ”
"Oh~" Deng Qiushuang pressed her finger against her chin, as if she had made up her mind.
At this time, an elder came out of the hall and said loudly: "Bai Lingfeng, the grandson of the sect master, will soon become an adult after the beginning of spring next year, and there will be a coming-of-age ceremony in the sect at that time. ”
"This coming-of-age ceremony will invite the great families from all over the mountain and sea realm, the ten sects in the world, and the Immortal Emperor Dynasty to participate. This coming-of-age ceremony is related to the face of our Divine Sword Sect, and there is absolutely no room for loss, so we must unite as one to do this well. ”
"There is still a little more than a month to go before Chinese New Year's Eve, the time is very urgent, and as for other tasks, I can't take them for the time being." During this time, all tasks related to the coming-of-age ceremony will be rewarded with a three-percent increase. ”
All the disciples talked about it all at once, the little sect master who had been missing for ten years was going to have a coming-of-age ceremony?
Deng Qiushuang pulled Bai Lingfeng and said happily: "Senior Brother Bai, look, it's your coming-of-age ceremony, it turns out that you are already sixteen years old." ”
Bai Lingfeng was also full of question marks, he didn't expect that the large-scale event that the Divine Sword Sect was going to hold this time was actually related to him, and his father would agree?
Deng Qiushuang counted her fingers and said, "It turns out that we haven't seen each other for more than ten years." It's all my fault for being a bad sister, but don't worry, I'll definitely make eleven dresses for me when the time comes!
Bai Lingfeng was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately said, "Senior Sister Deng, in fact, you don't have to be so polite. You think, these missions are all for my bar mig. If you complete one of them, you'll be treated as a birthday present to me. ”
Deng Qiushuang refused, and said, "How can this work? What is the difference between giving gifts like this and those random boys?"
Bai Lingfeng's face was full of black lines, was he originally a boy, okay? He looked up to the sky and sighed, if it was also a sin to be good-looking, he would rather not ...... Forget it, let me never recover!
The elder who spoke just now said, "Okay, without further ado, now issue a new task, all disciples remember that the task about the coming-of-age ceremony has a time limit, and it can only be completed on Chinese New Year's Eve at the latest." ”
As the elder finished speaking, the scrolls above slowly disappeared. After a while, new reels reappeared.
Bai Lingfeng suddenly became anxious, and said: "Ah! Don't start yet, I don't know how to take the task yet! No matter what, I'll find out if there is a task in the Stone Claw Mountain Range first." ”
Deng Qiushuang saw Bai Lingfeng like this, covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Senior Brother Bai, call me sister, I'll help you take the task of the Stone Claw Mountain Range next, how about it?"
At this time, Bai Lingfeng was anxious, because he had already seen and found that there was a task scroll about the Stone Claw Mountain Range that had fallen into the crowd, and now that it was crowded, he couldn't see how others took the task.
He had just met a new friend, and he cherished it.
And Senior Sister Yue, because they trusted themselves, they handed over this task to me, I don't want to disappoint them!
Bai Lingfeng looked at Deng Qiushuang's expression, his heart was refusing, but the three idioms that Yue Xiaoyang praised himself suddenly sounded in his mind: anxious for justice and righteousness, righteousness and thin clouds, and two wedges with a knife......
I don't want to disappoint my friends!
Bai Lingfeng held back three words even more difficult than Xiao Hei: "Sister Deng......"
"Sister is good!" Deng Qiushuang touched Bai Lingfeng's hair, she was very dissatisfied with this hairstyle, and she must comb Bai Lingfeng's hair beautifully when she turned around.
The golden light flashed in Deng Qiushuang's hand, and the token representing the true disciple appeared in his hand. Then he raised it to those scrolls and said to Bai Lingfeng, "What are they, you point them to me." ”
Bai Lingfeng immediately reacted, pointed at one of the scrolls, and shouted, "This way!"
After speaking, the scroll in the sky fell into Deng Qiushuang's token.
Bai Lingfeng pointed out to Deng Qiushuang the more than ten task scrolls about the Stone Claw Mountain Range that he had just seen, but in the end, only five scrolls were snatched. After that, Bai Lingfeng looked for the scroll in the sky again, and there was no more scroll about the Stone Claw Mountain Range.
Deng Qiushuang reminded: "No need to look for it, the sect prevents people from taking tasks randomly, only two tasks can be accepted in different places, and only five tasks in the same area can be accepted at most." ”
Bai Lingfeng exhaled, in this way, if you can get five task scrolls, you have completed the task perfectly, and you can go back to hand it over. He suddenly felt that he had just received a task from Yue Xiaoyang, and this task was to come over to take over the task.
He hugged his fists at Deng Qiushuang and said, "Thank you so much Senior Sister Deng this time." ”
Deng Qiushuang said: "What are you calling me?"
The corners of Bai Lingfeng's mouth twitched, "Sister Deng......"
Deng Qiushuang then grinned and said, "My sister is good." He touched Bai Lingfeng's head again.
Bear with me!
So Bai Lingfeng put a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying, and stretched out his hand to Deng Qiushuang.
Deng Qiushuang asked, "What is this?"
When Bai Lingfeng heard this, he immediately felt that it was inappropriate. said: "The task scroll just now, didn't you help me grab it?"
Deng Qiushuang took out one of the scrolls from the True Inheritance Token, shook it in front of Bai Lingfeng, and said, "This is the task I received." ”
Bai Lingfeng hurriedly said: "Sister Deng, sister, sister, you are my own sister! Don't play me, I promised my friend to come over to pick up the mission of the Stone Claw Mountain Range, and then go out to practice together." ”
Deng Qiushuang said with a smile: "I'm so happy to hear you call me so much sister." Then she put a finger to her chin with a look of embarrassment.
He continued: "But it's a bit difficult now. In order to prevent someone from speculating on the task scroll in the sect, if the task changes hands in the first three days after it is undertaken, half of the reward will be deducted. ”
Bai Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, there is still such an operation, but if you think about it carefully, it is still reasonable to do so.
"Then what if someone receives a task and can't complete it?, will that affect their development and plan?" Bai Lingfeng continued to ask.
Deng Qiushuang said: "Of course there will be an impact, in this case, you can ask for help from senior brothers and sisters, of course, you have to pay for it." Or team up with someone to complete the mission, and of course the rewards are the same. If you can't figure it out, you can only come back and ask the elders for help, but this is equivalent to giving up the task, there will be punishment, and you will have to pay the elders an additional reward. ”
Bai Lingfeng nodded when he heard this, this can indeed prevent some people from taking tasks randomly.
He was stunned, how could he care about this?
That's not the problem!
