Chapter 2 Tasks
Three days later, the main peak of the Tiangang Sect was above the 'Shenling Peak'.
Ye Zixuan and Feng Shan were standing outside a large hall, and near the entrance of the main hall, there were twenty or thirty disciples of the Tiangang Sect.
"Zixuan, this is the place to receive the task. Feng Shan pointed to the main hall in front of him and continued: "According to the regulations, the disciples in the sect have to come to receive the task once a month, and this piece is in charge of Elder Li, and the content of the task is also assigned by him, but generally new disciples will be more taken care of, and the task will not be too dangerous, and they usually follow some senior brothers to collect elixirs, or explore some terrain." ”
"Thank you. Ye Zixuan said with a smile: "I've been stuffy in that yard for the past few days, and my bones are about to loosen, so I want to come to take over some tasks to practice my hands, but it's troublesome for you." ”
Feng Shan waved his hand, and then took out seven or eight pieces of jade-like things from his arms and stuffed them into Ye Zixuan's hands.
"What is this for?", Ye Zixuan asked with some confusion.
"This is the Yuan Stone, which can increase the cultivation speed of the Yuan Force, and it is also a common currency among martial artists, and the sect will issue three to the disciples to cultivate every month. Feng Shan was a little embarrassed and said, "I have to use two every month, plus buy some things, and there is not much left, you take it first." ”
Ye Zixuan was stunned when he heard this, and from Feng Shan's words, he could know how precious the Yuan Stones in his hands were! It was simply Feng Shan's hard-earned money, how could he hold these Yuan Stones.
"No, no, no. Ye Zixuan brought the yuan stone in his hand to Feng Shan again, and said: "This yuan stone is so precious, and Brother Feng has already helped me so much, I must not accept this yuan stone!"
Feng Shan's face was anxious when he heard this, and he pushed the Yuan Shi back again, and said, "You can take these Yuan Shi Zixuan! ”
"Will you use it later?", Ye Zixuan was a little strange, "Why do you need to use it later?"
Feng Shan looked around, lowered his voice and said, "This is the rule, every disciple must give Elder Li some offerings!"
"Then what if you don't give it?", Ye Zixuan raised his eyebrows.
"I can't help it!", Feng Shan tugged at Ye Zixuan's sleeve, "Those who break the rules don't end well, I heard that some disciples don't give this offering either, but the task they received turned out to be to kill demon beasts, isn't this equivalent to nine deaths?" But there is no way, all the disciples' tasks are assigned by Elder Li, he is not happy, naturally he will not let us people have a good time." ”
"There is still such a thing, doesn't anyone care?", Ye Zixuan frowned.
"I can't do it. Feng Shan sighed and said: "The sect also turns a blind eye to this, after all, these elders are all in the realm of martial kings, and most of them have been promoted from disciples to elders, and they have worked hard for the sect all their lives, of course they want to make some oil and water when they are old, how can the sect blame them?"
Ye Zixuan nodded thoughtfully when he heard this, it is indeed as Feng Shan said, these elders are also eighty/ninety years old, and the old ones are even more than a hundred years old, dedicating all their youth to the sect, as long as it does not shake the foundation of the sect, for some of their small actions, who will say it, and who dares to say it? This benefit is the interest of all the elders, once this is moved, it is equivalent to shaking the entire sect!
"I'm innocent. Ye Zixuan shook his head, "I really don't understand this kind of thing, but since it is a rule, it is not easy to break it, but I am afraid that these Yuan stones will not be able to be returned to you in the near future." ”
"It's okay!", Feng Shan had a smile on his face, "You use it first, and it's not too late to return it to me later." ”
"Ye Zixuan!"
"It's coming!", Ye Zixuan shouted, then looked at Feng Shan and said with a smile: "I've been called, I'll go in first to see what this task is." ”
"Hurry up!"
The young man in the cyan robe who walked out of the hall glared at Ye Zixuan.
"Zixuan, go in quickly. Feng Shan pushed Ye Zixuan and smiled at the young man: "Senior Brother Li, he will go." ”
The young man surnamed Li probably knew Feng Shan, snorted when he heard this, and said, "What are you grinding, there are still a lot of people waiting behind." ”
Ye Zixuan felt a little uncomfortable when he saw this, and was about to speak, but Feng Shan on the side pulled his sleeve and shook his head at him.
Ye Zixuan walked in front of the young man surnamed Li with a cold face, and was about to walk into the main hall.
"Slow down!", the young man surnamed Li glanced at Ye Zixuan arrogantly, stretched out his hand, and said, "Do you know the rules?" ”
"Three?", Ye Zixuan's eyes narrowed.
"It's three, every disciple has to hand it over, you hurry up, there are still people waiting behind." The young man surnamed Li looked at some of the people beside him and said in a low voice.
According to what Feng Shan said just now, each disciple can only get three yuan stones per month, but this young man surnamed Li said that he wanted three yuan stones, this is obviously a lion's big mouth, if the elder dares to do this kind of thing, he is afraid that the sect will turn a blind eye again, and he will definitely not tolerate it!
Moreover, since Feng Shan was able to save these yuan stones, it proved that what the young man surnamed Li said was untrue.
Ye Zixuan glanced at the young man surnamed Li, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, seeing that he was a new disciple, he wanted to knock himself out?
"It's too much! I only have two Yuan Stones on me, but you want three Yuan Stones, isn't this forcing me to grab them?", Ye Zixuan suddenly shouted loudly, looking at the young man surnamed Li with a look of grievance and exclaiming.
"Be quiet!", the young man surnamed Li didn't expect Ye Zixuan to shout, his face was anxious, and he stretched out his hand to cover Ye Zixuan's mouth.
As soon as Ye Zixuan's feet moved, he dodged and continued to shout: "This senior brother, you can do it, okay! Two, I have two yuan stones on my body, three I can't get out of my way, I will send yuan stones next month, can I give you again?"
Ye Zixuan shouted, and all the disciples outside the main hall suddenly turned their eyes over, and from time to time they pointed at the young man surnamed Li and Ye Zixuan.
"Bastard!"
The young man surnamed Li gritted his teeth and glared at Ye Zixuan, as if he was going to eat him, his expression was resentful, and he wanted to make a move under his feet.
"What's the noise?"
A neutral voice suddenly sounded.
As soon as the young man surnamed Li heard this voice, his face immediately turned pale, and his feet began to tremble as if they were shaking.
"What's going on?", an old man wearing a black cloth shirt with a childish face and crane hair walked out of the hall.
The old man stared at the many disciples present, and then shifted his gaze to the young man surnamed Li and Ye Zixuan, with a hint of majesty in his voice,
"Li Feng, didn't I ask you to call Ye Zixuan, what are you arguing about outside?"
"Elder, me. Li Feng's face was anxious, and he wanted to speak.
"This senior, I only have two yuan stones on me, he has to have three yuan stones, otherwise he won't let me in, you tell this senior brother, I owe it first, let me go in first." ”
Ye Zixuan sneered in his heart, but his face showed a harmless look of grievance.
"Three?", the old man glanced at Li Feng lightly when he heard this.
"He's talking nonsense!", Li Feng's body trembled, and he hurriedly said: "Elder Mingjian, this is completely bloody!"
Li Feng's virtue, the old man naturally knew it clearly, snorted lightly when he heard the words, and said to Ye Zixuan: "Okay, come in." ”
The old man's soft snort, although it was light, but in Li Feng's ears, it was like a thunderstorm, and even his body was a little stiff, and he didn't dare to look at the old man at all.
Ye Zixuan glanced at Li Feng and sneered in his heart: "I want to blackmail the master, but I found the wrong person!"
Ye Zixuan entered the main hall with the old man.
The hall is very simple, except for a large row of bookshelves filled with books of various colors, and on the left near the wall, a wooden cabinet is placed, and the wall is densely packed with wooden signs.
The old man walked behind the wooden cabinet, glanced at Ye Zixuan, and said, "You are the new Ye Zixuan?"
"I've seen Elder Li, and the disciple is Ye Zixuan. Ye Zixuan clenched his fist at Elder Li.
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Elder Li's face, and he said with a smile: "I already know about you from Old Man An, I heard that you are quite liked by the ancestor?"
Thinking of Old Monster Hong, Ye Zixuan couldn't help but smile on his face, and said, "It's not a liking, at most it smells like it." ”
Elder Li nodded when he heard this, but there was a hint of discoloration in his eyes, you must know that Hong Lao Wei is a very strange person, and the people who can get along with him look at the entire sect, I am afraid that there are only a few people, that is, myself, as soon as I see this master, I also want to hug my head and run away, for fear of being teased by him, but Ye Zixuan in front of him is the person personally selected by Hong Lao Wei.
What this move means, naturally, is self-evident!
Elder Li took a wooden plaque from behind the wall, glanced at it, and then handed it to Ye Zixuan.
"Yicheng horse thieves were rampant, and they also collided with a stronghold of our Tiangang Sect in Yicheng, and three outer disciples were killed. Elder Li paused and said, "So this time, your task is to go to Yicheng with the other two to meet up with the outer disciples there and exterminate that gang of horse thieves!"
"Exterminate the horse thief?", Ye Zixuan looked at the wooden sign in his hand, and simply wrote the words 'Yicheng, horse thief, support'.
Ye Zixuan frowned, the content of the task was far from what he thought, and Feng Shan had said that most of the tasks that new disciples took over were just simple tasks to collect elixir, and the first task he took over was to go to Yicheng to exterminate the horse thief.
Since that group of horse thieves dared to rush into Tiangangzong's stronghold in Yicheng, and also killed three people, they must have a good force, but I am afraid that they have been entrenched in Yicheng for a long time, so bold and reckless, there must be some reliance.
However, Elder Li put this task in his own hands, but he didn't know if he was taking revenge on himself because of Yuanshi's matter, or what the reason was!
Elder Li picked up a book on the wooden cabinet and said to himself:
"I'd rather offend a villain than a woman"
"Chen Tianjiao?"
As soon as Elder Li talked about women, Ye Zixuan naturally thought of Chen Tianjiao, as soon as he entered the Tiangang Sect, he fought with her, and made people cry, thinking that as the daughter of the sect master, she wanted to make some stumbling blocks for herself, but it was very simple and easy.
