Chapter Seventy-One: Registered Mercenaries
"Are we going to eat now?" Zhou Dazui asked, this guy has a soft spot for eating.
"Brother Zhou, I still have some business, I want to go to the north of the city to find a guard named Sha Xueqian, I promise to pay him back. Why don't you invite him to dinner? ”
"Sha Xueqian, that stupid boy! It doesn't matter if you don't pay it back, he often helps others advance the city fee, and he hasn't seen a few people pay it back, so he won't care. ”
"That's not going to work, I've got to talk. Chu Lingyu said seriously, he had a very good impression of Sha Xueqian, he was definitely not stupid, he was just too kind and too realistic.
"Okay, okay, I'll go with you!" Zhou Dazui was helpless, so he had to take Chu Lingyu to the north of the city. "That's his home, there is an old lady in his family, who said that she was injured by a demon beast, so she was paralyzed in bed. ”
Chu Lingyu knocked on the door, "Is Brother Sha at home?"
"Who?" Opening the door and seeing Chu Lingyu and the two, Sha Xueqian happily pulled him in, "Are you really called Chu Lingyu?"
"Yes, is there anyone else named Chu Lingyu?" he didn't understand why Sha Xueqian had such a strange expression when he heard Chu Lingyu's three words.
"Your name is Chu Lingyu?" Zhou Dazui also looked him up and down, "Hey! It's a pity that this Ling Yu is not Ling Yu!"
"Brother Zhou, what's going on?" Chu Lingyu asked curiously.
"More than twenty years ago, there was a refining genius in Western Qianzhou, named Chu Lingyu, who united many scattered cultivators and small sects to establish Lingtian Pavilion to fight for cultivation resources for our monks in Western Qianzhou and resist the monopoly and oppression from the big sects. But then he disappeared, and Ling Tiange was also suppressed and dispersed, he is a big hero in our scattered cultivators!"
While he was talking, Chu Lingyu only felt weird, and there seemed to be an inexplicable sense of familiarity with what he said.
"Since I'm here, I'll go see the eldest lady!" Chu Lingyu asked Sha Xueqian's opinion.
"Well, it's been a long time since anyone has come to see my mother. Sha Xueqian was very happy: "Mother, someone has come to see you." ”
"Hello aunt, my name is Chu Lingyu, I know a little bit of medical skills, can I show you?" can raise such a son, his mother must not be a treacherous person.
"Oh!" A glimmer of light flashed in the old woman's eyes, and she glanced at Chu Lingyu, which instantly dimmed: "It's too troublesome, my disease can't be cured." Although the old woman was not hopeful, she also stretched out her hand and asked Chu Lingyu to take the pulse.
Chu Lingyu could feel that this old woman's previous cultivation was not weak, I am afraid that there was a later stage of Jindan's cultivation, her injuries were too serious, resulting in a complete loss of skill, the meridians of the whole body were knotted, and the Jindan was dissolved, and only the continuation of the pulse could be re-cultivated. didn't know their identities, Chu Lingyu didn't dare to promise rashly, and only comforted, "Don't worry, auntie, you will definitely be fine." ”
The woman knew that her wounds had no hope of healing, and she did not care. She knew her son, and he was stupidly helping others again, and this time she met a person with a conscience.
"Brother Sha, I'm here to pay you back, and I want to invite you and Brother Zhou to dinner together. ”
"I still don't need to eat, I want to stay at home with my mother!"
"Silly boy, go with this friend! I'm fine at home. Go, go!"
"Oh, mother, here we go. ”
Coming to a tavern in the city, the three of them sat down and ordered. When the guy saw Zhou Dazui, he pursed his lips, "Zhou Dazui, you tricked the newcomer into inviting you to dinner again?"
"How can you be deceived, this little brother is voluntary! Did you say that you invited me to dinner?"
"Yes, introduce your signature dishes, one of each. Chu Lingyu said generously, and here Sha Xueqian tugged at the corner of his clothes, "Little brother, the signature dishes here are very expensive." ”
"It's okay, let's do it. ”
"Well, this brother is refreshing, I have made you a friend!" So he unceremoniously ordered a dozen dishes, and then handed the recipe to the two of them. Chu Lingyu ordered another dish of stewed demon rabbit meat, while Sha Xueqian didn't order anything more. After serving a pot of wine, the three of them began to eat and talk. With this movement of chopsticks, Chu Lingyu felt why this tall and thin guy was called a big mouth. That mouth is really powerful, and the speed at which he eats alone is not comparable to Chu Lingyu and Sha Xueqian. In this way, he didn't delay his speech, and he still answered the things that Chu Lingyu was interested in, which made Chu Lingyu feel amazed, where did he go after eating so many things?
Zhou Dazui really knows a lot, and he thinks that this name is not just something that can be eaten. The various sects and factions and forces in Xiqian Continent were like treasures, which made Chu Lingyu feel that it was the right time to invite him, although this meal almost killed all the spirit coins he had just exchanged.
At present, the largest sects in West Qianzhou are Jinyang Sect and Qingxu Sect, which are inextricably linked with the top sects in Zhongyu Prefecture, and every five years select young talents under the age of twenty-five in the whole state to send them to the major sects in Zhongyu Prefecture, and outstanding students will be included in the major sects to become inner disciples or core disciples, and various cultivation resources are abundant.
If you can worship a master who has traveled to the tribulation or Mahayana period, it means that you will have unlimited achievements in the future, and the worst one will be able to start a sect in Xiqianzhou in a few hundred years. Therefore, now the large and small sects in Xiqianzhou, except for a few ancient sects such as the Purple Spirit Sect, most of the rest are extensions of the power of the Zhongyuzhou sect family. It's a pity that such an ancient sect has also fallen, and only one or two cultivators in the Yuan Infant Stage are in charge, and they have also become a third-rate sect in this Western Qianzhou.
There are very few cultivators above the distraction period in the casual cultivation, and a large number of casual cultivators in Xiqianzhou are subject to the sect, doing the most arduous tasks and getting the least resources. The demon beast resources they hunt will be purchased by the sect at a very low price, but the elixirs, weapons, and magic weapons provided by the sect require them to spend a lot of money in exchange.
There are very few refiners and alchemists in the scattered cultivation, even if there are cultivation geniuses who are also recruited by the sect, those who do not want to enter the sect are easily assassinated, and the masters who can refine the elixir have hardly been seen.
"Speaking of which, we have to mention the Ling Tian Pavilion more than twenty years ago. That Chu Lingyu was a genius, he entered the Yuan Infant Stage in less than two hundred years, and later advanced to the power of distraction, became a refining master, organized Ling Tian Pavilion, and concentrated on cultivating cultivators and alchemists in scattered cultivation, and provided pills and weapons for scattered cultivation. Those ten years or so were the happiest ten years for us to spend our scattered cultivation, but unfortunately the good times didn't last long, but the Chu Pavilion Master disappeared, I think it was because he touched the interests of the sect and was killed!"
"Brother Zhou, shhhh Sha Xueqian hurriedly stopped him.
There were still a few loose cultivators around drinking, they looked over here, raised their wine glasses, and Zhou Dazui also raised their glasses, indicating that everyone didn't mind what they just said, and they wouldn't betray them.
"Let's go, why don't we go to my house, let's continue to talk!" Sha Xueqian invited them.
Zhou Dazui was a little drunk, and he pulled Chu Lingyu and kept chattering, "I didn't catch up, otherwise I would have followed Ling Tiange to do a big job!
"Brother, I'm optimistic about you! Don't spoil this good name!"
As soon as Ling Tiange was mentioned, that sense of familiarity came out of his mind, could it be that he really had something to do with this person?" "Brother is here through time, okay, don't make any more moths, I haven't finished the responsibility of Xiao Lingyu in this life!"
Coming to the small courtyard of the Sha family and throwing the drunk in his house, Sha Xueqian hurriedly went to take care of his mother, "Mother, we brought delicious food, Brother Chu and they will live in our house today." ”
"Well, my humility is kindness. However, my mother also said that the heart of defense is indispensable, and you still have to be careful outside. ”
Early the next morning, Chu Lingyu planned to go to the mercenary union to take a look, planning to take on a task, and he had to adapt to it first when he got here. He knew that the old woman of the Sha family must have some secrets, but he was not easy to ask an outsider, and before leaving, he put a bottle of elixir on the old man's table, which could take care of her body, and gradually recover to the extent that she could take care of herself.
Zhou Dazui hadn't gotten up yet, he slept very hard, and he didn't move, and Sha Xueqian went to the city gate to guard, and Chu Lingyu left quietly.
The old woman had actually woken up a long time ago, she took the medicine bottle on the table, opened it, and her mood suddenly became excited: Washing the Pulp Pill, Zhuji Dan, Qingyu Pill, Yunling Pill, Yangyuan Pill...... There are as many as ten kinds of mortal-grade and spirit-level pills, and this quality is definitely produced by a master-level alchemist, even if he is not injured, he will not be able to reach such a level!
"Chu Lingyu, looking at the age of this child, it should be very young, Pavilion Master, is it because you have taken away the pill and been reborn?" The old woman carefully hid the pill in her arms, such a thing is enough for the monks of the Jindan period to kill people and sell more goods. In the casual cultivation, there are not a few ruthless people, and she has to hide this thing: "There is hope that her son will build a foundation." ”
Chu Lingyu came to the mercenary union and registered an identity, because Chu Lingyu's name was too ostentatious, he still used the name Xia Yu, but he didn't change his face anymore, there are many cultivators in this world, and the disguise that is not smart enough is easy to be recognized, and it is easy to be misunderstood.
"In the late stage of Qi training, Xia Yu, a seventh-level mercenary, you can go and take on the task. After spending ten spirit coins, Chu Lingyu got a palm-sized shield-shaped identity plate with the pattern of two overlapping mountain ranges on the card, with Xia Yu's number on it and a red star below.
The red star is the lowest-level mercenary, and can only be upgraded if you complete the corresponding tasks and earn points. From low to high, it is seven to one level, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, once you reach one million points, you can upgrade to the Black Shield Medal, and with the Black Shield Medal, you will become the king of mercenaries. The remuneration of mercenaries at all levels is also different, and in order to obtain higher benefits, mercenaries will work hard to upgrade.
Hunting the fifth-level demon beast Red Flame Tiger, requirements, fifth-level mercenary...... Remuneration......
Escort the goods to Lotte City, requested, third-level mercenary......
Finding a Lost Item......
After reading a lot of tasks, there are really few tasks that a seventh-level mercenary can complete, Chu Lingyu is thinking about whether to enter a small team and follow to get a little points.
"Hey, there's one here, explore the secret realm of Cuizhu, there is no level requirement, and the points are 10,000. This is good, it doesn't require a level, and the points are quite high, that's all!" Grabbing the task card, Chu Lingyu went to register the task, and the people around him looked at him with strange eyes.
"What's the matter, is this mission very strange?" Chu Lingyu thought to himself, but with his own cultivation, he really wasn't too worried, there should be no problem with the mission that all seventh-level mercenaries could participate in.
