Chapter 18: Walking Alone (Chapter 5)
I heard the bald head say this.
Chen Fan also immediately confirmed, this is his second senior brother Tao Xi'an!
I know the disciple of Mingyuelou from Bai Qiaoxin in Yandu City, who is also surnamed Tao, and cares about himself, he can only be his cheap second senior brother.
And with Chen Fan's contact at this moment, he also confirmed that his senior brother was a good person.
"Senior brother, why do you say that, if you can see me and Senior Brother Zhang Fan in the Martial Academy, you should know that the master's transformation, no matter what happened in the past, now you, me and the master are standing on the same position, and the master also asked me to see you, but I am too busy these days to find time-"
Tao Xi'an's eyes were complicated when he heard this, but he just smiled bitterly and shook his head, and didn't say much.
Chen Fan asked:
"I'm very strange, senior brother seems to know, I went out on a mission with Bai Qiaoxin and others, and there is something else, I don't know where did senior brother get the information?"
Tao Xi'an shook his head and said indifferently:
"I didn't get any news or intelligence, but I can tell that something is wrong, I have been in Bai Qiaoxin's fellow villagers for a while, and I know this woman well."
"She's not a good woman, and this 'fellow villagers' will not do you any good for a genius disciple like you."
When Chen Fan heard this, his heart was also warm, he had been in the martial arts academy for three months, but he actually forgot to meet this cheap senior brother at all, but he didn't expect that he had been paying attention to himself.
At the same time, Chen Fan was also a little speechless: "I just entered the martial arts academy, I shouldn't have offended anyone, right?" And this Bai Qiaoxin...... Is it okay to risk offending me? ”
Taucian shook his head:
"Your talent is original sin, and you can't avoid the envy of others...... If I hadn't told you about today's incident, if you left the Martial Academy, and you were still traveling with so many people, the information about your location would definitely be exposed, and it would be difficult to say what you would encounter when you left the Martial Academy......"
"Bai Qiaoxin may not intend to harm you, but her behavior is extremely irresponsible to you. You usually go to the Martial Academy, Fucheng, and even return to Yandu City, eating and drinking with these people, and the relationship with Lala is not impossible, but when it comes to going out on a mission and your own safety, you must not trust them. ”
Chen Fan was speechless.
He also knows that his strength at this age is too strong, which will inevitably lead to the jealousy of others.
Qinghe County may not have a genius disciple like Chen Fan for a few years, which is naturally different from ordinary people.
Chen Fan thought that there would be so many twists and turns, and while he became more and more cautious in his heart, he also kept these noteworthy matters in his mind.
In a place like the Martial Academy, only by being extremely careful can you have the last laugh.
At the end, Taucian said:
"If you really want to do the task, do it yourself. Also, make sure that no one else knows about your mission except someone you trust completely. ”
"You can even cultivate a team of descendants outside the Martial Academy, they can not be strong enough, but you must have certain means in the outside world that can help you complete the task more conveniently."
Chen Fan nodded, knowing in his heart.
……
Bai Qiaoxin not only failed to pull Chen Fan away, but was threatened by Tao Xi'an, she was not strong enough, so naturally there was no way to take the other party.
And all this is naturally driven by Wan Qing and others behind the scenes.
Wan Jia, where Wan Qing is located, is not a family in Qinghe County, but a big family in Guming County, and there are many grandmasters in the clan, which are ranked among the top in the two counties, and Wan Jia also attaches great importance to Wan Qing.
When Wan Qing learned the relevant news, he was even more speechless.
"Chen Fan has already arrived at the gate of the Martial Academy, this Tao Xi'an ......"
Naturally, he was furious at the man who had ruined his plans.
His heart was furious.
"Such a good opportunity is gone, Chen Fan will be more cautious, what should I do?" He felt a rare fluster.
Wan Tianbao narrowed his eyes: "I noticed one thing, in the past few days, Chen Fan's daily cultivation time in the Ten Thousand Illusion Hall has gradually become shorter......
Wan Qing narrowed his eyes: "What does this mean?" ”
Wan Tianbao said: "His yuan points are not enough, he just wants to earn yuan points, so he will agree with Bai Qiaoxin at the beginning and complete the task together......"
Wan Qing's eyes widened: "What do you mean ......?"
Wan Tianbao nodded: "How to earn a lot of yuan points in a short time, the Asking Heart Hall is not enough, the assessment time of Vientiane Realm is not enough, he only has the only way to receive the task, but with Bai Qiaoxin making such a fuss, Chen Fan is likely to turn everything into a private act." ”
Wan Qing's eyes flashed when he heard this: "There is still a chance to ......"
……
Chen Fan could wait in the martial arts academy for two more days, and almost all the yuan points were consumed.
Only then did he quietly come to the task pick-up place alone.
"Mingyue Lou disciple Chen Fan, you're going to have a mission?"
Disciples of the Martial Academy are required to complete a certain number of tasks every year.
As for newcomers, in the first year, they only need to complete one task, and ordinary disciples will not come to take on the task so early unless they are very short of yuan points.
Chen Fan nodded, and then checked the list of tasks he could take.
The standard of tasks that each person receives is also calculated according to their own Vientiane Realm ranking.
However, Chen Fan has about 400 people, but he is more powerful than many martial arts fivefolds, and the difficulty of the tasks he can take on is not low.
He looked at the list of tasks he could take, many of them were tasks to kill bandits and kill some monsters that were haunting the human realm.
The mission area is within the scope of Qinghe and Guming counties, with a huge span, and the task rewards range from just 100 to 7800 yuan.
There are even some special long-term missions to serve in the frontier of the Western Wilderness and kill monsters.
Chen Fan also learned about it in the introduction of the martial arts academy.
The Western Wilderness is extremely huge, with an area far more than ten times and a hundred times that of Daqian, not all of them belong to monsters, and there are also some human settlements in some distant places, and even countries exist.
It's just that there are not many human beings in the Western Wilderness area that is relatively close to Daqian, but there is a place called Ten Thousand Demon Ridge.
The territory is huge, and there are a large number of demon beast races.
Ten Thousand Demon Ridge is divided into different regions, not all monsters have to eat people, but it is true that there are quite a few demon beast tribes that often harass the Great Dry Border Pass.
Why Yandu City holds a demon slaying conference every year to hone disciples with life and death, and why the Great Cadres sent the Qing Python Army to guard the western region, it is because of the disaster of demon beasts!
Of course, some big demons are wise and knowledgeable, and they know that the big cadres are not easy to mess with, and the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains have not made major moves for many years, so Qinghe County can have a stable life now.
It's just that since the news of Emperor Daqian's illness came out, the demon beasts in the west in the past two years have also been ready to move, and the border is not stable.
Chen Fan thought of the senior brother who had already gone to the border pass, shook his head slightly, and rejected this idea in his heart:
"Killing demons on the border may be able to make me grow quickly, but it may also be able to die faster, I can grow rapidly now in the Ten Thousand Illusions Hall of the Martial Academy, and I can't take such a big risk!"
He is not a nameless junior before at this time, and on the premise of growing up to be able to ensure his own safety, it is naturally better not to do such dangerous things.
He only went out this time to earn yuan points that could maintain the use of the Ten Thousand Illusion Palace, and the goal was mainly on those tasks of killing bandits and searching for demons in Qinghe County.
His "Three-Foot Sword" is a great achievement, and he is worried about killing the enemy to break through, and it is just right to take these tasks.
He turned around and asked, "How many tasks can I take on at most?" ”
"Disciple of Mingyue Tower, you can take five tasks at the same time, but I want to remind you that many of these tasks are time-sensitive, and if you can't complete them and intercept them, you will also need to pay a certain price!" The staff at the mission reception replied.
This is also to avoid taking too many tasks at one time and not being able to complete them, but wasting task resources.
Chen Fan also frowned slightly, in this case, he naturally had to be careful to consider.
After thinking about it carefully, Chen Fan chose five tasks in turn, all of which were concentrated in the surrounding area of Yandu City.
First, you can go back to see your master and family.
The second is that the strength of the Baiyun Dao Pavilion radiates the most around Yandu City, which can bring the most convenience to Chen Fan to complete the task.
Only the master, he can fully ensure trust.
