Chapter Ninety-Eight: Mission, Qin Demon
Wu Su sniffled as he entered the room, and he smelled the smell of dragon tooth rice.
If the highest evaluation of music is to go around the beam for three days, then the dragon tooth rice can really go around the house for three days, and the taste of that fragrance can be maintained for a long time.
He was not surprised, almost all of them had prepared a lot of resources before coming, and even like him, they had been preparing for several years, and for this reason, they had postponed the time to come to the Heavenly Gate Sect.
"What are Brother Gu's plans next?" Wu Su asked after sitting down.
"I haven't thought about it yet, let's stay for a few days and see how it goes." Gu Sheng replied directly, he knew what Wu Su meant.
I want to know if the person who takes care of me has assigned a task to him.
Wu Su really showed a smile when he heard this, and asked, "Does Brother Gu's piano sound also have an effect on the fierce beasts and monsters?" ”
Gu Sheng nodded slightly.
"Reward the Honor Palace, Brother Gu also went to see it, right?"
"Those lowest-level tasks, often ten days and half a month, the harvest is too small, and they can only maintain the cultivation and live here. If you want to go to the second floor of the library, you have to save for a long time, let alone the third floor.
What's more, there are magic pills, each of which is expensive, but it is also practical for improving strength. ”
Gu Sheng nodded slightly.
Here, the stronger the stronger, the weaker the weaker, but after a period of time, the gap between the two sides will become wider and wider.
And it's not a safe place, and those ordinary tasks are not without risk, and you may die in an accident one day.
Not to mention that there is still friction between the Tianmen Sect and other sects, which can be seen from those combat missions on the mission, and it has to be considered in the future.
"What does Brother Wu think?" Gu Sheng asked directly.
"Those ordinary collection and harvesting tasks waste too much time, and the harvest is not big. There is one of the tasks that suits us in the task of clearing monsters, it is a dryad, and its strength is higher than that of you and me, but it is inconvenient to move and has obvious weaknesses. The risk is not big, the benefits are not small, especially the materials on the dryad are also quite valuable. ”
"In the area where the tree demon is located, there are a large number of silver-threaded snakes, and their strength is no more than the Forging Bone Realm, but the speed is amazing, and the venom is fierce, even the martial artists of the Tongmai Realm can't bear it, and ordinary snake repellent drugs have no effect on it. Brother Gu's ability couldn't be easier to deal with these silver-threaded snakes. ”
Wu Su said what he meant.
Gu Sheng knew which task he was talking about, and he saw it yesterday.
The most troublesome point of this mission is that there are a large number of silver snakes on the mountain, which is not a small threat to the Tongmai warriors.
Those silver-threaded snakes are raised by the dryad, and if someone wants to kill the dryad, unless the silver-threaded snake is cleaned up first, the silver-threaded snakes on the mountain will hear the sound, and there are still a lot of them.
If you want to clean up all the silver snakes all over the mountain, it will take a long time.
Before, a team of people suffered a lot of losses in this, and only cleared a way to besiege the dryad, but they were surrounded.
Of the three disciples of the Heavenly Gate Sect, one died, and the other two are still recuperating from their injuries.
It's a dangerous task, but it's also very rewarding. Ordinary tasks are only 100 contributions, plus 13 level 1 Bei Zhu, which is equivalent to about 180 contributions.
This task is five hundred contributions, one hundred second-level shell beads, and if all are exchanged for contributions, it is enough to have one thousand three.
Not to mention the materials on the dryad.
"Who else?" Gu Sheng asked.
For those who are new to the task, each task indicates how many people can complete the task.
For example, a normal task can only be completed by one person, while this task can be completed by five people.
If you go to four or five people, the income is about the same as an ordinary harvesting task, and there are too many people and too many variables.
In that case, Gu Sheng would rather find an ordinary task to do.
"It's just you and me, you're in charge of cleaning up the silversnake, and I'm in charge of the dryad."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, I've been in Yongzhou for so many years, it's not for nothing, otherwise I would have come three years ago." Wu Su's expression was unmoving, but his words were full of confidence.
"This task is also suitable for Yang Qi." Gu Sheng nodded at him.
After all, Yang Qi and there are many of them, if they don't want to be scattered to do the task, this task is the best choice.
"I'm already on the task." Wu Su said with a smile.
Gu Sheng estimated that if he didn't agree, Wu Su would also have a backhand.
"It takes fifteen days to go back and forth, and if you rent a shuttle boat, eleven days on the road are enough, plus up and down the mountain, a maximum of twelve days. Even if something happens, it's time to take on other tasks. Wu Su said again.
"Then I'll leave tomorrow." Gu Sheng thought about it and decided.
After Wu Su left, Gu Sheng and Yan Ruyu went outside to take a walk.
This place is called Tianmen Port, but it is the same as the name of Tianmen Sect, and the two high mountains in the distance are Tianmen Peak.
The Tianmen Sect is divided into two parts: the inner gate is in the Tianmen Peak, and the guest gate is in this Tianmen Port.
Seeing the robe on Gu Sheng's body, ordinary people stepped aside in awe, not daring to collide in the slightest.
Gu Sheng was a little unaccustomed at first, but after walking for a while, he gradually got used to it.
The style and folklore here are completely different from Da Zhao, and the clothes are mostly tight-fitted, and many women expose their waists and abdomen, with open-arm shirts on the upper body, and long skirts or wide-legged pants on the bottom.
Many men's trousers are only up to the knees, presumably because it is easier to get into the water and work on the boat.
The food is also mainly based on aquatic products from the sea, and along the way, there are all kinds of fried fish and grilled fish, steamed buns are filled with fish, and there are foods similar to octopus balls.
Yan Ruyu bought a lot of stuffed into the Qiankun bag, especially the grilled fish fillet.
As for the currency, it is also gold and silver, although the system is different, but it can be used, but the value is one-third lower than in Dazhao.
Gu Sheng remembered a popular science he had seen before, it was said that it was impossible to produce gold and silver in the planets, but supernova explosions and fell to the earth.
Gu Sheng's main purpose this time is the bookstore, there are many more kinds of books here than Da Zhao, especially all kinds of geographical chronicles, sea chronicles, maps, miscellaneous talks, etc., and there are them from all over the place.
The Confucian classics are much less.
It is said that these Confucian doctrines were all transmitted from Lingzhou, and both Dazhao and here were learned from Lingzhou.
Gu Sheng directly bought all the gazetteers, sea chronicles, and miscellaneous tales, and there were more than 100 copies.
Even if only a few of them have something valuable to themselves, they can't carry a large amount.
……
Early the next morning, Gu Sheng and Wu Su converged.
Gu Sheng took Yan Ruyu and Seti with him, after all, Seti had a strong ability to avoid evil, and she could avoid most dangers with her.
Wu Su led two subordinates, one was more than two meters tall and a somewhat straightforward man, and the other was an indifferent middle-aged man with a bloody aura.
The two of them first went to the Hall of Honors and changed the task to two people to take it.
When I got to the shore, I saw a slender boat about 20 meters long and shaped like a shuttle.
There was no building on the ship, not even sails.
"Brother Gu, don't look at this ship as inconspicuous, but it is extremely fast, twice as fast as the ship when we came. But the conditions are definitely much worse. Wu Su smiled.
"It doesn't matter." Gu Sheng didn't care.
There were only two people on the boat, and there was also the symbol of the Tianmen Sect on their clothes, but their strength was not high, a Taoist monk from the out-of-body realm, and a martial artist from the marrow washing realm, and greeted them directly with a smile: "In Xia Shangyong, you can find me if you have anything to do in the future." Two seniors, and a few other colleagues, please come with me. ”
"They are also sect disciples?" Gu Sheng asked in a low voice, the two big men made the boat quite fragrant, and he smelled the fragrance before he got on the boat, a bit like the smell of flower water.
"It's a subordinate branch of the sect, and it mainly deals with those tedious things." Wu Su replied.
Directly down to the cabin, the room is not small, full of thirty square meters.
There is a side window in the cabin that can be opened in normal times, but in case of strong winds and waves, the side windows must be closed.
After everyone boarded the ship, it was not long before the ship left the port, and sure enough, as Wu Su said, it was extremely fast, twice as fast as the big ship when it came.
Gu Sheng stayed for a while, and then went to ask Shang Yong.
The power system of this ship, Gu Sheng inquired about it on the big ship when he came, it is controlled by a magic circle, but it is similar to controlling the wind by himself, but he is manual, and he is semi-automatic.
However, he was a little curious about how the boat managed to avoid the sea beasts.
"Seniors don't know, my Tianmen Sect has an agreement with the gods in the sea, so it will not be attacked by sea beasts.
However, some giant beast cubs are very curious, and they always want to take a bite of this kind of boat, so the hull of the boat is brushed with a layer of tung oil mixed with the weasel glands.
This smell is a bit fragrant to us Terrans, but most sea beasts are extremely disgusted by the smell of sea ferrets, and will avoid it when they smell it from afar. Shang Yong explained with a smile.
"I see." Gu Sheng nodded, the status of this ferret in the sea is estimated to be similar to that of a skunk.
Along the way, everyone really didn't encounter any danger, Gu Sheng stayed in the room and read, and from time to time he drew some messy things, such as fruits and the like, and even drew a bag of dragon tooth rice, which was ten catties.
Three days later, the ship stopped at a wharf, and Shang Yong stood at the bow of the ship and said to everyone: "We will wait here for ten days, I wish you all a smooth trip." ”
"Thank you!" Gu Sheng nodded, got off the boat and went to a restaurant with Wu Su to wait, and the honest man named Li Xiao under Wu Su went to buy horses.
Gu Sheng played with a paper crane, and felt a little regretful in his heart, he found two paper cranes in the relics of the Taoist priest who died in Feng Jiu's hands, but unfortunately there was no way to use it, this thing needs special techniques to control.
If this thing can be used, it will be much more convenient.
Wu Su, who was on the other side of the table, was very interested, pointed out the window and said, "If you have been in Yongzhou, how can you see the vastness of the world?" ”
Gu Sheng looked out the window, and the walls of the buildings here were covered with colorful shells as decorations, which was beautiful.
Pedestrians also like to carry shells with them, not moire shells, but a kind of shells that are a specialty of this place, which are colorful and luster, and hang on the body like a jade pendant.
Yan Ruyu also bought a few, hung one on her waist, and was hanging it on Gu Sheng's waist with great interest at this time.
"But if you want to see the vast beauty of this world, you have to have strength. My generation cultivates, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and you should be brave and diligent. ”
"That's true." Gu Sheng nodded, and he didn't know if Wu Su felt something in his heart, or if he had something else in mind.
It didn't take long for Li Xiao to lead five tall horses with scales on their legs, and hurriedly went upstairs after being tied downstairs, poured a pot of tea first, and then said: "Master of the door, there is a kind of dragon horse abundant here, which is said to have dragon blood, extremely fast, long physical strength, and can travel two thousand miles a day." ”
"Now that I am a disciple of the Heavenly Gate Sect, what is my name as the sect master? In the future, the two of you are also going to enter the Heavenly Gate Sect, I am not one step earlier, I told you before. Wu Su reprimanded.
After saying this, there was a trace of wave in the eyes of the man who was quite indifferent, called Ji Yunfeng.
"Brother Wu!" Li Xiao was quite big, and he squirmed and said, "You also know, I'm not used to it." ”
"You don't use your brain!" Wu Su scolded with a smile.
"Go on, return Ryoma, can Ryoma sell you?"
"They don't sell it, but if I reveal your identity as a disciple of the Heavenly Gate Sect, they will sell it." Li Xiao said with a smile.
After everyone finished eating in the restaurant and packed a lot of cooked food, they went down to see what Li Xiao said.
The horse was a head taller than a man, with a back height of at least one meter eight, and he was tall and extremely powerful.
"Look, master! This horse's teeth, this thing eats meat. Li Xiaoxing burst open the mouth of a horse, and inside was a mouthful of sharp teeth.
"Anyway, can't you have a longer memory?" Wu Su gave him a kick and scolded.
……
This Ryoma is indeed extraordinary, extremely fast, and has a long physical strength.
It was originally expected to be a two-day journey, but it only took more than a day or two hours to arrive, and everyone still had time to rest.
"Childe, shall we take this horse back and raise it?" Yan Ruyu was moved again, and reached out to stroke her beloved horse, which was also close to her.
"Good!" Gu Sheng raised his head and looked ahead, this is a high mountain, a place full of spiritual energy, and also a medicinal field of the Tianmen Sect, planting red blood mushroom, which is the main medicine for refining the blood elixir, and is picked once every thirty years.
The last time I came to pick it, I found that there was an extra dryad and a large number of silver snakes.
Hence this task.
Otherwise, it will be burned directly.
After Gu Sheng looked at it, he directly drew a small house in the air, but in a moment, the house stood out in the air, as if it was like this.
Then he and Yan Ruyu went to the house to rest, at least there were no mosquitoes or anything, and they could sleep with peace of mind.
Wu Su outside looked full of envy, Gu Sheng's hand technique, he had been greedy for a long time.
Li Xiao walked around the house several times, amazed, and wanted to reach out and touch it twice, but was stopped by Wu Su.
After resting for four hours, Gu Sheng pushed the door and came out of the house, waved his hand, and the house dispersed.
"Next, it's up to Brother Gu!" Wu Su said to Gu Sheng.
"Okay." Gu Sheng nodded. "The location of the Dryad is in the lower third of the peak, and I will clear a way along the way, and when I get to the Dryad, you deal with the Dryad, and I will deal with the other silver-threaded snakes."
"Just do what Brother Gu says."
Brother Gu nodded, walked to the edge of the forest at the foot of the mountain, took out the Spring Thunder Qin and put it on his lap, and under the flicking of his fingers, the sound of the piano flowed out.
The cheerful, sunny-like piano sound spilled into everyone's hearts, and even Ji Yunfeng, who had almost no expression, had a much softened expression, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Wu Su sat on the ground, shaking his head to the sound of the piano, praising in his heart.
I have long heard the name of the Qin Demon, and at this time, Fang is well-known, if it weren't for the fact that the other party killed thousands of people with a piece of piano music, it would not be too much to call Qin Xian.
Even he gradually became a little distracted, only to feel that the sun was shining, and all those troubles were gone, and life was not bad.
It wasn't until the sound of the piano changed that Fang Cai came back to his senses, and suddenly felt a little afraid in his heart, and Fang Cai himself was defenseless at all.
When I opened my eyes at this time, I saw a large group of snakes densely packed in front of Gu Sheng, the snakes were cyan, but there was a silver line on their backs, and there were thousands of them.
And Gu Shengqin's tone changed, and the weight was reversed, which made people feel dizzy, as if they were drunk.
Gu Sheng smashed a drunken demon and turned it into the sound of the piano, with this song "Drunk, the power is greater, some of the thousands of silver-threaded snakes in front of them fell asleep directly on the ground, and some straightened up their upper bodies and swayed there, but they fell to the ground in a moment.
Thousands of silver-threaded snakes with the strength of the Bone Forging Realm, extremely fast, and extremely poisonous were put down by Gu Sheng.
"Poof," a heavy sound sounded from the ground.
Wu Su turned his head to look, only to see Li Xiao's guy with a drunken red on his face, lying on the ground and sleeping.
Wu Su couldn't wait to give Li Xiao a kick, and felt in his heart that Gu Sheng's piano skills were really terrifying, especially when he was defenseless, even he would be hit.
But if you have precautions, it's different.
Wu Su turned his head and glanced at Ji Yunfeng, this guy is still reliable.
However, Ji Yunfeng was also a little afraid in his heart, he didn't expect that he would be pulled into the sound of the piano so easily, and he was a little later than Wu Su when he sobered up.
Gu Sheng put the piano away, tilted his head and motioned for Wu Su to move.
He didn't want to do it, so he lured the silver snake over and killed it again, it was easy to dye his piano sound with killing intent.
Although it may seem like a cover-up move, this does happen.
Yan Ruyu looked at the dense silver thread snake, and ran directly behind Gu Sheng, also not wanting to do anything.
She is not afraid of killing, but snakes are different.
"It's just that you're drunk, you'd better move faster." Gu Sheng said.
Wu Su kicked Li Xiao awake, and then Ji Yunfeng and Li Xiao stepped forward with a sword and a long-handled broadsword, and slashed the silver-threaded snake all over the ground.
"Today is an eye-opener and an eye-opener, Brother Gu's methods are really amazing." Wu Su Dao.
Thousands of silver-threaded snakes are hidden in the forest, and everyone can go up if they are on guard all the way, but one careless person may be damaged.
Not to mention when facing the dryad head-on, if these silver-threaded snakes appeared, it would be troublesome.
"Anyone within five miles is here." Gu Sheng said that the trees in the forest were too dense, and the sound of his piano could only be heard for a few miles in this environment.
And from the foot of the mountain to the location of the dryad, it is almost a hundred miles.
Then they went into the forest, and sure enough, not a single snake could be seen.
Not only were there no snakes, not even birds and beasts, and there was silence.
You don't have to think about it to know that the birds and beasts here are almost eaten by these silver-threaded snakes.
It is estimated that in a few years, these silver-threaded snakes will either be greatly reduced in number, or they will breed everywhere, hunting outside.
