Chapter 3 Mentor Mission
"Senior sister, what do you think my mission will be this time? It should be to go to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to get rid of demons! Cheng Xiaohu walked as he walked, his eyes full of excitement.
The task of the master is the task assigned by the Tang Dynasty Government to the disciples under the sect, and it is generally issued once a month. Among them, most of the elite disciples' tasks are to deliver letters for the elders of the sect, or go to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to clean up monsters, or clean up small thieves in Chang'an City.
Ye Qing looked at Cheng Xiaohu's excited appearance and chuckled: "Don't think about it!" With your little cultivation, it is estimated that you haven't even broken through to the second layer, and you won't be able to move because of those goblins! ”
"Then don't go to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, you can go to the vicinity of the division to deal with some small thieves! Anyway, just don't let me deliver letters again! Cheng Xiaohu spread his hands and said.
The two smiled all the way into a courtyard, the yard is not big, but it is exquisite, crisp pines and cypresses, turquoise bamboo, lotus flowers in the small pond, and the fine water on the rockery is slow.
In the middle of the courtyard, there was a table under the pines and cypresses, on which a young man in white was sitting peacefully.
When Cheng Xiaohu saw this person, his face became more and more excited, and he shouted, "Senior Brother Bai!"
When the man heard the shouting, he looked over and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Cheng, Senior Sister Ye, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
"Senior Brother Bai, we are here to lead the master's mission!" Cheng Xiaohu didn't talk much nonsense, and went straight to the point.
Bai Ye, the disciple in the Tang Dynasty Mansion who is specially responsible for issuing the tasks of the master.
"Okay, then you wait, I'll go get it for the two of you!" Bai Ye smiled.
"Hmm!" Cheng Xiaohu and Ye Qing both nodded.
White Night got up and walked into the back room, and after a while, when he came out, he already had two more things in his hand: a letter and a token.
After Cheng Xiaohu saw the letter, the excitement on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by loss and helplessness.
Cheng Xiaohu complained in a long tone: "No, it's a letter again??? Senior Brother Bai, I've been sending letters for two years, and I've almost let me run all over Chang'an, and you still ask me to send letters? ”
"Haha, this is all what the master meant, don't complain to me! Also, this delivery is different from previous deliveries. Bai Ye shook the envelope in his hand and said.
"What's the difference?" Cheng Xiaohu took the envelope and asked curiously.
"The person who received the letter this time is not in Chang'an."
"Not in Chang'an?" Cheng Xiaohu and Ye Qing couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this.
Bai Ye continued: "This letter was written by the master to an old man named Lei Heizi in Jianye City. So you need Xiaohu to go to Jianye City. ”
"Jianye City?" Before Cheng Xiaohu could speak, Ye Qing had already opened his mouth first: "Is it the Jianye City next to the East Bay?"
"Hmm!" White Night nodded.
After Ye Qing confirmed, he said again: "Senior Brother Bai, there are thousands of miles away from Chang'an. Shouldn't it be handed over to a brave martial disciple who knows how to soar the clouds in such a far place? ”
When Bai Ye heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Yes! Originally, this kind of task of going to Jianye City to deliver a letter should indeed be handed over to the Yongwu disciples to perform. But you also know that during this period of time, Beiju Luzhou was quite unpeaceful, and most of the disciples with higher cultivation in the mansion were sent to Beiju Luzhou! Therefore, these relatively simple heroic tasks can only be handed over to you elite disciples to perform! ”
After Ye Qing heard this, he shook his head and said: "But Xiaohu is still young, and his cultivation is not high, if he is allowed to go, I am afraid that there will inevitably be many twists and turns along the way!" You see, otherwise, it's good to exchange my master's mission with Xiaohu. ”
Ye Qing's task is to go to Chang'an City to clean up some small thieves, although it is very troublesome, but it is much easier than going to Jianye City to deliver letters.
Cheng Xiaohu listened to Ye Qing's words beside him, and black lines couldn't help but grow on his face. But thinking that Ye Qing also cared about herself, she didn't have a seizure to refute her, after all, his cultivation was not high......
"This won't work!" Bai Ye shook his head and said, "There are strict rules in the sect that each disciple's task can only be completed by himself."
"But......" Ye Qing suddenly stopped in the middle of her words, because she heard that the voice of the white night suddenly sounded in her ears.
"That's what the master meant!" Bai Ye's voice was not loud, but Ye Qing was magically able to hear it clearly, while Cheng Xiaohu's face next to him did not change, as if he didn't hear Bai Ye's voice.
Forcing the sound into a line, a spell that can only be mastered by at least the cultivation of a brave disciple or above.
Ye Qing looked at Bai Ye and was shocked in her heart, she never thought that this Bai Ye, who didn't look much older than her, actually had the cultivation of a brave martial disciple.
"The master said: Xiaohu, this kid is lively and free, let him stay in the house and have no intention of cultivating, it is better to try to let him go to the outside world for a trip, maybe there will be a different harvest!"
"It's just ......" Ye Qing was about to say more, and Bai Ye's comfort had already been transmitted.
"Don't worry! Jianye City was specially selected by the master for Xiaohu, and the road to this is a flat avenue, as long as Xiaohu is honest, there will be no big incident! ”
When Ye Qing heard this, her face was even more worried, which was what she was most worried about.
The two grew up together since childhood, and she knows what kind of character Cheng Xiaohu is!
It's so hard to get him honest! Don't look at Cheng Xiaohu usually looks extremely lazy, but deep down he is extremely righteous in his heart, even if he doesn't have a knife, he has to help empty-handed, as long as it is something he is not used to, he will definitely intervene.
In the past, when he was delivering letters in Chang'an City, he didn't get involved with a group of street bullies because of some trivial matters, but in that case, Ye Qing was usually watching from the side, so naturally nothing big would happen.
But this time it was different, Ye Qing received the task of going to the fifth layer of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to eliminate demons.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is located in Chang'an City, it is built by 50 years ago, when the Buddha of Zhantan Merit Tang Sanzang returned from taking scriptures, it not only hides ten thousand volumes of scriptures, but also suppresses countless demons and monsters, so the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is also known as the town demon tower.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is a total of seven floors, and the monsters living in it are also more dangerous than the first layer, and the demons on the fifth layer, even Ye Qing has to spend a lot of effort to subdue them, so it is impossible for her to go to Jianye City with Cheng Xiaohu to deliver the letter.
Ye Qing could only sigh helplessly, and his eyes were full of worry when he looked at Cheng Xiaohu.
Cheng Xiaohu was different from Ye Qing, his face was not only not melancholy but full of excitement, looking at it like that, he couldn't wait to set off immediately.
He grew up in the Tang Dynasty Mansion since he was a child, and he has been living in the Tang Dynasty Mansion The farthest place he went to was the weapon shop in the south of Chang'an City, but now, he was able to leave Chang'an City to go outside to see the world farther, how could he not be excited.
"Senior sister, don't worry! Anyway, I'm also an eighth-generation elite disciple of the Tang Dynasty, so I'm just going to deliver a letter, and it's okay to do this little thing. Cheng Xiaohu's eyebrows flew and Ye Qing was relieved.
Ye Qing sighed and did not speak.
~~~~~
At night, the moon hangs high and the sky is full of stars.
Cheng Xiaohu lay on the bed, tossing and turning several times, but he never fell asleep.
"Tuk Tuk!" Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Xiaohu, have you slept?" Ye Qing's voice came from outside the door.
"Not yet!" Cheng Xiaohu immediately jumped up from the bed after hearing Ye Qing's voice, and then walked over to open the door.
I saw that outside the door, Ye Qing was dressed in white and won the snow, and in front of her beautiful face, the moonlight had lost a little color.
"What's wrong? Masters. Cheng Xiaohu asked.
