"Xiao Yan, the three of you stop what you have at hand, come here, I have something to tell you!"

Xiao Lai, who received the task assigned from above, looked at this task, pondered for a moment, and went to call Xiao Yan and the others over.

Xiao Yan and the three of them saw Xiao Lai's serious face, and Huangfu Nan, who originally wanted to drag it back, immediately threw down the work at hand and came to Xiao Lai.

Xiao Lai looked at the three people standing below, and nodded with satisfaction, "After these months of training, you have all made different degrees of progress, and now, it is time to test you."

Now, there is a task that the three of you need to complete, if you complete it well, in addition to the material rewards, you can also make an exception to promote Huangfu Nan and Tuoshe to inner disciples, and Xiao Yan on an equal footing, if you don't complete it well, come back and double the amount of training! ”

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

As soon as they heard the words doubling the amount of training, Xiao Yan and the three of them immediately came to their senses, they had experienced the feeling of doubling the good, it was really tiring that you didn't even want to lift a finger, that feeling they didn't want to experience again.

"Very good, now I will tell you about the requirements of this mission, our Xiao family has a lot of affiliated families and descendants, and they continue to provide the freshest blood and a large number of mineral resources from the Xiao family, and Wuliang Mountain is the existence of such a place.

Guarding this Wuliang Mountain is a descendant of my Xiao family, they have been stationed there for many years, mining the mineral resources of Wuliang Mountain for us, every year, only the spirit stones mined by Wuliang Mountain account for more than thirty percent of the entire Xiao family, and now, in the area of Wuliang Mountain, there is a group of unknown bandits, secretly stealing the spirit stones we mined, the number is unimaginable, but we have never been able to catch these bandits, so the following will report the matter, I hope that the clan can send someone to supervise, Catch these thieves who steal spirit stones. ”

"Then Master means let's go?" Xiao Yan took the initiative to ask, the three of them can be said to have only joined the Xiao family, they are not familiar with the affairs of the Xiao family at all, and Huangfu Nan and Tuoshe are still outer disciples, and this kind of important task related to family secrets should not let the three of them go?

Xiao Lai shook his head, "It's not what I meant, it's what I mean." ”

"Above?" This made Xiao Yan and the three of them even more surprised, what does this mean above, test? Or do some people see them unpleasantly and want to take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of them?

Seeing the doubts in Xiao Yan's eyes, Xiao Lai explained: "Don't worry, it should be just a test, I heard, I just heard that this matter was recommended by your little uncle, and I heard that it was strongly recommended!" ”

Brother Xiao? Hearing this person, Xiao Yan and the three of them felt a little relieved in their hearts, Brother Xiao should not harm them, the three of them glanced at each other, and then nodded.

"Okay, let's go!"

Since this was Xiao Yan's first time going out to do a task, Xiao Lai was extremely uneasy and spent the whole night with them about the affairs between the Xiao family and the clan, and also prepared very life-saving things for them, just like every parent who treats a child who is about to travel far away, and brought them every thing they can think of, although Xiao Yan and the three of them are extremely talented, but now their strength and experience are still shallow, what they lack most now is time, before they grow up, they can't just capsize in the gutter.

"Master, we know, you can rest assured, we are only here to catch thieves, not to fight hard, there is no danger." Huang Fu Nan looked at Xiao Lai, who kept stuffing things for them, and said with a smile, seeing Xiao Lai like this reminded him of his grandfather, his grandfather also told him so, but unfortunately, he will never see his grandfather again.

"Don't be too careless, this time, I always feel weird, in short, you just be careful, remember, if you can't fight, run, it's important to save your life!" Xiao Lai once again reassured uneasy.

"We'll be careful, Master, don't worry."

Send you a thousand miles, there will be a farewell, even if Xiao Lai is reluctant, Xiao Yan and they should go, the young eagle, only after experiencing being thrown off the cliff by the eagle, and then climbing up, can they really soar in the sky.

At the same time as Xiao Yan and the three of them left, on a hill not far away, Brother Xiao stood there with his hands crossed, looking at the back of Xiao Yan and them leaving, his eyes were deep.

"Ah, we're finally out! It's been a suffocating time! ”

As soon as Huangfu Nan left the Xiao family, it was as if he was happy, and the conversation box opened again all of a sudden, these days he is just cultivating, cultivating, and cultivating again every day, and he is already tired and unable to speak, plus he can't see Xiao Yan and Tuoshe for a few days, if he wants to speak, he has nothing to say, he can't let him talk to that wood-like Xiao Lai, this time, no one can control him, a mouth can't be idle, let's talk non-stop.

And Xiao Yan and Tuoshe have long been accustomed to Huangfu Nan's appearance, if he doesn't say a word along the way, then they will feel strange.

After a few days of hurrying, they finally arrived at the so-called Wuliang Mountain, because this is a place that belongs to the Xiao family, and outsiders are not allowed to enter casually, so Xiao Yan and they were stopped as soon as they arrived at the door.

Xiao Yan took out the identity document prepared for them by the headquarters, confirmed the identity card, and Xiao Yan and the others were put in.

"It turns out that it's from the headquarters, please come in, we've been waiting for you for a long time!" The man enthusiastically led Xiao Yan and the three of them inside, "The three adults are tired of traveling and traveling, we have prepared hot water and meals for the three of them, and washed the dust for the three of them!" ”

Xiao Yan raised his hand and said solemnly: "No need, just take us to see the place where the spirit stone was lost." ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "Okay, I'll take the three adults there." ”

Later, under the leadership of this person, Xiao Yan and the others came to a dark cave, and there were a few dimly lit candles in the cave, with the help of the light of this candle, Xiao Yan and the others could barely see the road under their feet, and after turning around, they came to a door.

"This is where we used to store spirit stones, this door has a net weight of ten tons, and without a key, manpower can't open it at all, and in addition to the key, to open this door, it takes several complicated processes, and the only ones who know how to open this door are me and our patriarch."

As he spoke, there was a "creak", and the stone door in front of him slowly opened, "Inside is where the spirit stone was lost, three adults, please come in!" ”

Huangfu Nan raised his foot and was about to go in, but Xiao Yan grabbed him behind him, shook his head at him slightly, and then stood at the door and said to the man, "Could you please go in with us?" ”

The man glanced at Xiao Yan, so he had to smile and nodded, "No problem!" ”

After entering, Xiao Yan only saw an empty cave with nothing in it, and he asked strangely, "Didn't you say that this is a place to store spirit stones?" What about spirit stones? ”

I saw the man smile weirdly: "I said it, it was the place where the spirit stones were stored 'before', so now the spirit stones must have been transferred!" ”

As he spoke, he only heard the sound of "tom", and the stone door closed suddenly, seeing this scene, Xiao Yan immediately exclaimed,

"Not good! Fooled! ”

He grabbed the man and said, "Open the door for me!" ”

The man smiled, "I've all brought you here, how can I open it again?" Besides, that door can only be opened from the outside, and the people inside can't be opened! Resign yourselves to your fate! Hahahaha! ”

At this moment, the mountain suddenly shook, and the whole cave began to shake violently, and stones continued to fall from the top of the cave.

"Oh no, the cave is going to collapse!"

As he spoke, he only heard a "boom", and a cave was instantly moved into ruins, and outside the cave, a person looked at the collapsed cave and smiled with satisfaction.
