237 Special Missions
Zhao Xun had seen it before, and the spirit beast of the elders of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect had increased by a hundred times through the secret method. This is naturally more than the mouse in front of you, but in the same normal state, this mouse is still bigger.
Previously, Zhao Xun thought that the fourth-order spirit beast was already very powerful, but after seeing the corpse of the spirit beast processed by the coolie, he found that his previous knowledge was too little, and the mouse in front of him was a low-level spirit beast, but it was also a fourth-order spirit beast, that is, the strength of the early stage of the human Jin Yuan Realm, which was directly equivalent to a sect elder.
This is enough to see what a magical place the Flood Forest is, there are many spirit beasts here, and their strength is not low.
"What a daze, hurry up and peel the skin and take out the bones!"
Just as Zhao Xun was looking around and sighing, the supervisor urged Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun glanced at the man, and boundless anger erupted in his eyes, like a spirit beast about to kill.
The overseer unconsciously took a step back and asked, "You, you, what do you want to do?"
Zhao Xun retracted his terrifying gaze, bent down, and began to peel the skin and bones of the mouse corpse.
That overseer was just a cultivator in the early stage of the Jin Yuan Realm, and Zhao Xun could let him go to the Western Heaven with a single move of the sword, but he couldn't do that.
His current identity is a coolie, and he still has poison on his body, once he makes trouble, he will be noticed by the strong man of the mercenary group, which will be even more unfavorable to him, fortunately, he will honestly be a coolie of the mercenary group, anyway, when the time comes, he will also send an antidote and restore his freedom.
However, Zhao Xun came to the supervisor like this, and today's work is naturally much less than others.
The mercenary group has a rule that in order to regain their freedom, coolies must do a thousand points of coolie.
Dealing with the corpse of a spirit beast like this, if it is only ten or a thousand points a day, it will take at least three months.
This kind of work is not tiring, some people directly work here as coolies for three months, and they don't think too much about it when they get the access pass to the Honghuang Forest, but for Zhao Xun, who has his own plan, he can't afford to delay the time, and he has to earn enough work as soon as possible.
"Come on, come on, today's coolie came to collect his work. ”
After the coolies finished today's work, the supervisor gathered everyone together and scored them according to today's performance: "Deng Li is ten points, Liu Chan is ten points, and Chen Buzhi is ten ......."
Whoever the overseer reads his name, that person will come out of the ranks. When it was Zhao Xun's turn, as soon as the overseer raised his head, his eyes immediately changed.
Zhao Xun ...... Oh, it turned out to be you. ”
The overseer smiled on his face, and then became extremely angry, and shouted: "Are you trying to do something to me today?!
Zhao Xun lowered his head slightly, pretending to regret it very much.
The person who registered yesterday investigated his cultivation, and he used the "Hidden Scripture" to only show the cultivation at the peak of the Silver Dollar Realm, and the other cultivations were all hidden, and the person who investigated did not suspect it, because those who came to the mercenary group as coolies wanted to be looked up to, and there was no hidden strength.
Also, the "Yinwu" in the mouth of the overseer, that is, the "Yinyuan Realm" that Liang Wuguo used to say, is called differently in different places, but the essence is the same.
The overseer looked at Zhao Xun's appearance, then frowned and said, "Given your performance today, you only have one point today, do you have any opinions?"
"Nope. Zhao Xun replied, and he didn't feel pity.
However, the other coolies who were watching were all gloating, and the three of Dunley, who were in the same cell as Zhao Xun, had a playful smile on their faces, and their eyes showed incomprehensible contempt for Zhao Xun who was standing alone in front.
"That kid named Zhao Xun didn't earn enough ten points today, which means that he has to do one more day than us, haha, this kind of idiot actually dares to contradict the overseer. ”
Deng Li and the others used the topic of Zhao Xun to talk to each other.
After a while, those coolies who knew that Zhao Xun and Deng Li were in the same cell felt worthless for Deng Li one by one, and the disgust for Zhao Xun on their faces was even worse.
Zhao Xun didn't regard these people as any resistance at all, and there were no such people in his eyes.
As soon as he returned to the cell, Zhao Xun sat directly on his bed, cross-legged and cultivated, and he didn't pay any attention to the coolies who were getting more and more noisy with each other.
After a day's hard work, the cells were unrestrained and could move around each other, and as long as they didn't go too far, the mercenary group wouldn't care too much.
There are a lot of female coolies in the coolies, some of them are extremely beautiful, and when I ask them, they are actually disciples of big families who have come to experience from other places, although they are also named "coolies", but the appearance of each water spirit is by no means a real coolie.
On the contrary, they were very interested in this kind of life, and anyway, this group of more than 100 coolies would live together for at least three months, so they organized themselves and got together to have a good time.
The Nine-Tailed Fox Mercenary Group has that self-confidence, and they don't care about these coolies at all, but instead open a special restaurant for them, and as long as they pay money, they can enter and live happily.
Therefore, on the first day of those coolies, some people organized to go to the restaurant to drink and chat.
A beautiful woman, walking into the cell with lively steps, announced the news to Zhao Xun's cell, Deng Li and the others immediately shouted happily, but Zhao Xun slowly opened his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I can't go. ”
Zhao Xun said this, and then closed his eyes again and entered the cultivation state.
Deng Li and the others didn't regard Zhao Xun as their own at all, and the three of them happily walked with the woman, the woman didn't quite understand, so she asked Deng Li on the way: "Why can't the one named Zhao Xun come out?"
"Neurotic, cultivating all day long, the result is not that he is only one level higher than me, he is at the peak of Yinwu, and I am the eighth order of Yinwu. I don't work hard to cultivate every day, it's just that when I want to cultivate, I just cultivate, if I work as hard as him, I would already be at the peak of Jinwu. ”
Dunley immediately replied, the expression on his face fluttered, and he couldn't wait to show all his excellence in front of that woman.
When the woman heard him say this, her eyes immediately lit up with him, and she said, "Dunley, your talent is too high. ”
The days of coolie labor are actually very monotonous, but because Zhao Xun offended the relationship with the supervisor, each time he has a lot less points than others.
Everyone else has full scores, but Zhao Xun's score is not only not a perfect score, but also a pitiful one.
The next day, two points.
Day 3, two points.
Day 4, two points.
Day 5, five minutes.
Day 6, one point.
............
In this way, Zhao Xun continued to do it for half a month, and everyone else was already one hundred and fifty points, but he was still less than fifty points.
Those coolies looked down on Zhao Xun in their hearts, and on the other hand, they felt that Zhao Xun was very powerful, and anyone who stood in Zhao Xun's position would definitely be worse than death, and the psychological pressure was extremely great, because they were too backward, they didn't get what they deserved, and they would definitely be angry if they were completely separated from the army.
But Zhao Xun didn't take it to heart at all, he gave as many points as he could, and did as he could.
After a long time, even the overseer didn't want to target Zhao Xun anymore, and on the nineteenth day, the overseer gave Zhao Xun the first ten.
Of course, Zhao Xun didn't have any expression, he was not shocked, and he didn't care at all.
"Okay, Zhao Xun, you return to the team. I want to tell you something, it may be an opportunity for some of you, of course, in the front, you have to do what you can, if anything happens, the Nine-Tailed Fox Mercenary Group will not be responsible, and it is your own business to cherish your life. ”
The overseer closed the list, crossed his hands in front of him, and spoke to the more than a hundred coolies.
"Tomorrow there will be a small beast tide that will impact the walls of Otis City, of course, we will not let you coolies stop the beast tide, everyone knows that it is impossible, the main force of our six mercenary groups will do their best to deal with the beast tide, we will solve the big problems, but there are still some small problems, our six major mercenary groups do not have the energy to deal with them, so we need powerful coolies to come and help." ”
When the overseer had finished speaking, all the coolies turned their heads to each other, some of them were manic, others were evasive and frightened.
"Questions?"
"How many points can I get for once?"
"Twenty points. ”
After the overseer finished speaking, those people immediately looked disappointed, twenty points is only two days of hard work, and it is really not worth it to bear so many dangers, but the overseer continued: "Afterwards, there will be merit points, for example, if you get the task of killing the ground yellow rat, kill one and add ten points, if you kill more, it is very likely that you will be able to earn 100 points that day." Also, if any of you want to join the Nine-Tailed Fox Mercenary Group, this is your chance to perform. ”
When the coolies heard this explanation, they were silent for a while, and no one said anything, as if everyone was thinking about the gains and losses.
The overseer didn't want to talk so nonsense, according to the law of the past, even if the coolies were afraid of death, there would always be coolies who were willing to take the risk. In fact, the strength of these coolies is not very strong, and there are not many who can really help, and the Nine-Tailed Fox Mercenary Group just wants to find some talents so that they can develop into members in the future.
He looked through the list and said, "The form of registration is in small groups, and individual registrations are not accepted, and those who want to participate will give me an answer tonight." ”
With that, the overseer walked straight away, leaving behind a group of chattering coolies.
Zhao Xun's eyes blinked, and then he returned to the cell first, he didn't care so much, this time, he naturally wanted to go, in order to earn points, this was also his chance.
After the three of Dunley returned to the cell, sure enough, they immediately started a heated discussion, and then Dunley strengthened his voice and said to the two that he must participate in this operation, and asked the two of them if they would like to go.
"Do you want to, let's ask Zhao Xun if he is going?" asked one of them to Dunley.
Deng Li looked at Zhao Xun, who was cultivating, with a look of disgust, and said, "No need, the three of us are enough, there is no need for one more person to divide points." ”
――――
At night, the overseers register in the hall, and whichever group attends registers.
There are a lot of people coming, all of them are some groups to sign up, and single registration is not accepted, so Zhao Xun can only find the group and say, although it seems that no one welcomes Zhao Xun, but Zhao Xun is not in a hurry, he leans back against the corner and closes his eyes to recuperate.
In the crowd, a short teenager, carrying a sword on his back, asked around.
"Can I join you? I'll have a lot of ......."
"On the other hand, you are only in the middle of Yinwu, and if you go, you will be sent to death, and it may drag us back. ”
The young man had a young face and did not look very old, and he had been rudely rejected by several groups, and he was a little dejected.
"Come with me. Zhao Xun stared at the young man and said softly.
