Chapter 9: A New Mission
In this small underground studio, candles burned quietly on the walls, and between Xue Ling and Fang Bie, there was the half-peeled garlic basket.
In the garlic basket are garlic cloves as light as snowflakes and garlic cloves as white as jade.
"Shang Jiuge is a good person." Xue Ling said: "And she helped us." ”
"I'll admit she's a good person, but it's not a world where good people don't die." Fang Bei looked at Xue Ling and said quietly. "Everyone's path is their own choice, and Shang Jiuge's path is also her choice."
Xue Ling let out a long sigh: "Okay." ”
"You haven't said yet, why did she suddenly make a move with Hei Wu."
"Actually, I've already said that?" Fang Bei looked at Xue Ling and said.
"Huh?" Xue Ling was puzzled, but still reached out to peel the garlic.
"I said, in this river and lake, there are many people who want Shang Jiuge to die quietly." Fang Bei smiled: "Of course Hei Wu is one of them. ”
"Why?" Xue Ling asked.
"The root of Hei Wu is the cultivator of the Demon Gate Luo Sect Black Heaven Demon Gong, if you really count it, he is the mountain gate protector of the Luo Sect, of course, whether it is Hei Wu or the Luo Sect itself, they don't really regard him as a protector." Fang Bei said slowly: "But one thing is certain. ”
"That's the person from the Black Devil Gate."
Xue Ling swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Yes, Xue Ling has almost forgotten about this matter, probably because Ningxia and Heiwu were relatively quiet during this time,
"The roots of Ningxia are not very clear, but she is also from the Western Regions, and the devil is on her feet." Fang Bei said quietly while peeling the garlic, and there was no wave on the young man's face: "The demon girls of the two demon sects, seeing the genius Shang Jiuge from a famous and decent family in the Central Plains, it is not a matter of thought. ”
"But I don't feel like that's exactly the case." Although Xue Ling somewhat agreed with Fang Bei's words, she still had some unresolved questions: "And, when the Dragon Boat Festival said that Hei Wu didn't do anything, you were on the side?" ”
"So you expect me to go out and fight Hei Wu for three hundred rounds, and then heroically save Mei?" Fang Bei said with a smile: "This is not my aesthetics, Shang Jiuge has the ability to protect himself, at least at the hedgehog-level self-protection ability, as long as I can protect the Dragon Boat Festival, then my task will be basically completed." ”
"Besides, there's Sister Ping here." Fang Bei continued.
Xue Ling nodded: "Sister Ping really scared the two of them?" ”
Ningxia's true strength is still unclear, but Hei Wuwu is a real strong first-grade combat power, He Ping can face the difficulties?
"Excuse me?" Fang Bei said with a smile.
And at this time, there was a sudden sound of knocking on the door panel above, Fang Bei and Xue Ling raised their heads, and then heard He Ping's voice coming quietly: "What are you doing down there?" ”
Xue Ling had the illusion of being caught cheating at that moment.
"Peel the garlic!" Fang Bei said confidently.
Anyway, the two of them did have a basket of garlic in their hands.
"I think it's garlic!" He Ping smiled and said.
Then the proprietress stopped laughing.
"Organized carrier pigeons are coming."
"You two come up for a moment."
……
……
I have to say that the carrier pigeons organized this time came much faster than before.
and whether the carrier pigeon that entered Shang Jiuge's belly would cause trouble to the organization.
Fang Bei never had the idea of beating those pigeons, not because they were not tasty.
It's that those pigeons are expensive.
Forty taels of silver, to put it simply, is the level that Fang Bei's current salary in the Sky Soul Inn can basically buy one for about ten years.
Shang Jiuge roasted pigeons without losing money, because she was Shang Jiuge.
But don't eat your own carrier pigeons, in a sense, it is the same nature as stewed police dogs.
Fang Bei and Xue Ling came to He Ping's room, the proprietress 's room was basically the safest place in this inn, and of course all the tasks were handed over here.
As soon as the two of them sat down, He Ping threw two copper pipes at the two of them.
This was already a very routine behavior, Fang Bei and Xue Ling glanced at each other, and then began to pick up the copper pipe in front of them and open it.
The thin mulberry paper is covered with black and white letters.
"The completion of the Xuanzi number task (public assignment).
Mission Name: Assassinate the Seventeen Thieves of the Yellow River.
Description: The 17 thieves of the Yellow River are the scourge along the Yellow River, and their actions are rampant, so it is advisable to kill their leaders and seize their property.
Task Completion Rating, C.
Rewards: Fifteen Assassin Points and 20 taels of silver. ”
Xue Ling pursed his lips, not too surprised.
This is the first C in Xue Lingfang's task completion record.
The completion of the Hive's tasks is divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D, with Class A being excellent, Class B being good, Class C being barely qualified, and Class D being a major omission.
Of course, there is also the level of failure further down.
Class A will rise on the basis of the original task reward, Class B will be basically the same, Class C will reduce the income, and Class D will barely deduct points.
As for failure, it is the same as giving up a result, deducting half of the assassin points, of course, the biggest difference between failure and giving up is that if you give up, you can deduct points cleanly, but if you fail, in addition to deducting points, you have to draw a big question mark if you still have a life.
After all, the person who assassinates others will also have the consciousness of death at any time.
This time the task of assassinating the seventeen thieves of the Yellow River, because of the participation of Shang Jiuge, it is said that Xue Ling is close to the whole paddling, but there is no difference in the final result, and most of the property of the seventeen thieves of the Yellow River was successfully sent to the designated place, of course, unlike the usual assassination, this time the hive quickly received the news, so the feedback was also very fast.
Unlike assassination missions, the Hive needs to repeatedly confirm that the target is dead, after all, this is a matter of the Hive's reputation.
In the end, it was also expected by Xue Ling to give a third class.
However, in addition to the task about the seventeen thieves of the Yellow River, there was another piece of mulberry paper, and Xue Ling was a little puzzled, but he still opened it.
"Mission: Investigate Shang Jiuge's movements and information
Description: Huashan Shang Jiuge swords descends the mountain, and all contacts are required to report all her movements and information to the organization.
Mission Complete Rating, Lower A.
The task reward is fifteen points for assassins and fifty taels of silver. ”
When Xue Ling saw this task, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
And is the total Assassin Points now one hundred and fifty points? If it is 150 points, there are really only 50 points left before the promotion of the Bronze Bee.
"Why does the investigator Jiuge also have points?" Xue Ling couldn't help but ask.
"Because the organization did issue this mission." Fang Bei smiled and said, by the way, he handed the mulberry paper in his hand to Xue Ling: "Take a look at this task." ”
Xue Ling took the mulberry paper in Fang Bei's hand and opened it.
"Character Task:
Assassinate Luojiao disciple Ningxia. ”
