Wei Wuji came to the council hall and found that many people were standing and waiting in front of the hall, and at a glance, it was estimated that there were almost thirty people. 【Reading.com】

Among these people, there are both men and women, of different ages, ranging from teenagers like Wei Wuji to those in their forties. Although there is a difference in the age of everyone, everyone is a cultivator, the vast majority of them have the strength of the martial arts quenching body of the First Heavy Heaven, and the few people are still the strength of the late stage of the First Heavy Heaven.

"There are a lot of people here, and I heard that the amount of medicinal materials needed by our family has increased greatly this time, and more people are needed. A man whispered.

"I heard that this time I went into the mountain, and the place where the medicine was collected was deeper than last time, and the danger increased a lot. Another said.

There are also people who have a different opinion, "You can rest assured, this time the accompanying guards have been added, and the place of collecting medicine has also been surveyed by special personnel." It is said that there are a lot of medicinal herbs growing in that mountain, and it is a great opportunity for us to earn family merits!"

"you, collecting medicine is drudgery, we are not collecting ordinary medicinal herbs, we must go deep into the mountains. Each time you enter the mountain, it will be less than 20 days, and more than 30 days, not to mention the hard work, if you encounter a monster, there is still danger. ”

The familiar companion next to him objected with a smile, "As for earning merit points, you have to collect precious and good medicines, as well as old medicines that are old, in order to get more merit points, and the merit points of ordinary medicinal materials are not much." ”

"Yes, there is a danger in entering the mountain, and a little merit point is completely exchanged for life. Look at how many people in our Weijiazhuang are willing to take the initiative to invite Ying and go into the mountains to collect medicine?

Wei Wuji stood not far away, listening to all the words in his heart, and then looked left and right. Sure enough, almost everyone looked stunned, and they were somewhat uneasy about this trip to the mountains to collect medicine.

At this time, the close confidant of the head of the family, Wei Ruishan, and Steward Wei walked in with several people.

The crowd hurriedly dodged to both sides, making way for a path.

"There are a lot of people coming, I don't know if it's all here? The time has come, let's start the roll call. Steward Wei stood in front of him, looked at the people below, and commanded the people next to him.

The man next to him nodded, flipped over and took out a roster, and began to roll call.

Wei Ningbo!

Wei Xiaohong!

Zhao Dongmei!

Zhu Zi period!

Wei Pei!

Everyone who shouted raised their hands to indicate that they had arrived.

Zhang Bohui!

No one in the crowd answered, and the named man glanced downward, shouted again, and when he was sure that no one answered, he put a mark on the roster.

After the roll call, Steward Wei began to speak to everyone, the content was the matter of going into the mountain to collect medicine this time, "This is a pharmacist apprentice sent by the family, named Wei Hong, this time he went into the mountain to collect medicine, and Wei Hong is responsible for the identification of medicinal materials." ”

Wei Wuji looked at Wei Hong, the pharmacist apprentice standing in front, this person is not very old, seventeen or eighteen years old, with an ordinary appearance, his strength has not entered the martial arts quenching realm, and he is still an ordinary ordinary person.

Standing beside him was a master of his own family, about forty years old, the depth of strength, Wei Wuji couldn't see clearly, it should be the escort who accompanied him this time.

"In addition, because we have to go deeper into the mountains this time, the danger has also increased a lot, and the family has specially sent someone to take charge of safety matters. This Mr. Guo Hai Guo is a cultivator sent by his family, and he has the strength of the Five Heavens of Martial Dao. ”

Steward Wei introduced to everyone, and Guo Hai also nodded to everyone.

Strength is respected, everyone did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly hugged their fists and bowed in reply, a voice of greeting.

"The guards sent by Weijiazhuang this time have also increased a lot of people. Steward Wei continued.

According to the past practice, the guards who enter the mountain to collect medicine are generally in charge of the masters below the triple heaven.

Usually, there are generally two triple heaven strengths and five double heaven strengths.

This time, the manpower sent was doubled, and there were four Triple Heaven cultivators and ten Triple Heaven strength.

Next, Steward Wei introduced to everyone the cultivator who served as a guard, among the four Triple Heavens, there was one person Wei Wuji knew, named Wei Li.

Wei Wuji remembers very well that Wei Li was disrespectful to Fluttershy and was beaten to death. Again, Fluttershy is a little reprimanded, not heavy-handed. With Fluttershy's strength, a single finger can make Wei Li's strength die a hundred times.

Wei Li was humiliated, so he naturally transferred this resentment to Wei Wuji. If it weren't for Wei Ruishan's concern about the purple-shirted woman, he wouldn't let everyone find trouble with Wei Wuji for no reason, I believe that Wei Li would have come to the door a long time ago, and the trouble to find Wei Wuji would come.

Ten cultivators of the strength of the Dual Heavens, Wei Wuji also saw a person he knew.

Xia Hai, Wei Wuji killed his cousin Wei Liang in the ring duel. At that time, Wei Wuji left, and Xia Hai wanted to step forward to intercept him, but was blocked by the guards in the ring, so he could only return with hatred. This person's hatred for Wei Wuji is better than Wei Li, and it is estimated that this time he will enter the mountain and take the opportunity to find trouble with Wei Wuji.

At this time, Xia Hai, who was standing in front of him, also found Wei Wuji, and his eyes showed a cruel look towards him.

This is a dead knot that never ends, and only killing can be resolved. Wei Wuji looked at each other without the slightest flinch.

Xia Hai saw Wei Wuji's eyes, and his heart was furious.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a man ran in panting.

"Bold! How can you break into the heavy hall of the council?" the steward shouted loudly.

Zhang Bohui was delayed due to the incident, hoping that he did not miss the roll call. The man said in a panic.

"Hehe, I've already ordered it. Steward Zhang smiled, turned sideways to the person holding the roster next to him and asked, "The roll call has not arrived, according to the clan rules, what should I do?"

"According to the clan rules, one of the two punishments can be chosen. The first is to deduct 20 points from the family's meritorious service, and the second is to deduct 15 days of errand service in the village, and the penalty is 15 days of errands. The man next to him replied.

"Zhang Bohui, did you hear clearly?" asked Steward Wei.

"Understood, Lord Steward, I chose a fifteen-day errand service, and the merit points are precious, so I'd better keep them. Zhang Bohui looked like a bitter gourd, and secretly called bad luck in his heart.

"Okay, when this time the mountain medicine collection is over, you will go to the torture hall to receive the punishment yourself, if you don't meet the deadline, the punishment will be doubled, understand?" Steward Wei waved his hand and said.

"Yes, I see, thank you, Steward. Zhang Bohui replied.

Steward Wei nodded, continued to say something to everyone, and then let everyone disperse, go home and prepare, and enter the mountain together early tomorrow morning.

Wei Wuji also prepared when he went home.

Originally, there was a fairyland space with a jasper gourd, where you could collect sundries, and Wei Wuji usually went into the mountains with ease.

But this time he went into the mountain with everyone, and in order not to expose the jasper gourd, Wei Wuji could only pack his bags and prepare his belongings and carry them on his back. It's a big bag, it's cumbersome, but there's no way around it, that's the only way to do it.

The next morning, the morning sun spits out a splash of red from the east.

Everyone arrived at the meeting place on time, and after the roll call, they went to the depths of the mountain together
