Chapter 2 Beginner Tasks

"I became a pure monk so quickly? Alas, really, what a trick! Let's go to work first. ”

In order to save his life, Liu Yu had to become a monk.

Fortunately, this Qingshan Temple is not big, except for the Daxiong Treasure Hall, there are only two monks' liao, one of which is already crumbling, and he can't even enter the house at all, otherwise just sweeping the dust is enough for Liu Yu, oh no, it is a pure industry monk tossing for a day.

After cleaning, Jingye threw the broom into the corner, lay on the bed and picked up the phone humming a little song.

"Mission accomplished, give me a reward!"

"The reward for this mission is one of two choices, please select the reward number." The phone responded.

"Just now I remember that the reward seemed to be a bell and a robe! This robe is not worth a bell, I choose a clock! As soon as Pure Industry finished speaking, he saw a burst of golden light above the mobile phone, and then, a black rag fell from the golden light.

"Ding! One Bell Reward Arrived! ”

Jingye stood up and scolded, "What a thing! What about the bell? If you don't give a copper one, at least send a cast iron one! That's good, give a cloth! I might as well have known that I might as well have a robe! ”

The phone vibrated and the metal rubbed again.

"Be careful with your words! This clock is not the other clock, and this reward is still very good, just right for you to use now. ”

Only then did Pure Karma remember that in ancient times, there was a kind of clothing that was worn on the body that seemed to be called a 'mouth bell'.

"Careless! I didn't expect the system to be so pitiful! ”

Looking at the black 'mouth clock' on his body, he couldn't tell what material it was made of, and there was no trace of stitching in the whole dress, not even the fine lines of ordinary knitwear, as if it was carved from a certain material.

Tugged hard, this dress can also grow and size according to the change of body shape, it is almost like a thin piece of rubber, which reminds Junye of an object that he had secretly studied but did not use when he had not yet stepped into society in his previous life.

With a slight frown, Jingye thought of a sentence he had seen in the book, 'The system is produced, it must be a high-quality product!' ’。

"I don't know what kind of use this bell will have, it doesn't look like a simple piece of clothing."

Thinking of this, Jingye planned to wear it under his coat, so that even if it was seen, it would not be too embarrassing, this dress was too ugly.

"Are there any more missions?" Jingye picked up his mobile phone and asked casually.

The mobile phone made a loud sound, "Novice tasks are not available at any time, theoretically there are only three mission opportunities, but you should think about your own food problem first, the system has detected that your body has not replenished energy for seven days, and you can resist for a day at most if you continue like this." ”

As soon as he said this, Pure Karma's stomach responded with a series of 'gurgling' sounds, and an unprecedented feeling of hunger came from within his body.

"I Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

Jingye instantly felt that he almost didn't have the strength to speak, and the vitality he showed when he cleaned the temple just now disappeared in an instant, and even the moisture on his skin seemed to evaporate, and he dried up slightly.

Jingye rushed to the back of the monk's dormitory, almost collapsing, where the temple kitchen was.

When I opened the lid of the pot, the pot was empty, and I opened the rice jar again and looked at it, and it was even more empty than the pot.

"System! You've killed me! This is to make me a starving ghost again! Jingye shouted hysterically, and there were 100,000 horses rushing through in his heart.

"Ding!"

The familiar voice rang out again.

"Now release the second Starter Mission!"

"Learn Luohan boxing and be able to practice it 50 times in one hour! Reward: A bowl of fasting rice, a bowl of water of life. ”

Hearing the word fasting, the pure industry monk immediately lit up his eyes, quickly picked up his mobile phone and read the task in detail again, and suddenly even had the heart to die.

"Luohan Fist!"

"Fifty more times!"

Two sparkling tears slid down from Pure Karma's white face.

"The system! Do you think I'm not hanging fast enough? And torture me like this! ”

The mobile phone rang for a while, and the emotionless voice came again, "Don't be moved to tears, let's hurry up and complete the task!" ”

"Impressed? I touched you with a hammer! ”

Jingye stared at the black and white villain who was demonstrating Luohan boxing on the mobile phone screen, and wanted to smash the mobile phone angrily, this picture quality is comparable to a mosaic!

Holding back the hunger in his abdomen, Jingye began to learn the movements of the little man on the mobile phone, and felt very awkward at first, but then there was a sense of comfort that came, and the hunger in his stomach was also reduced. Feeling the changes in his body, he began to study hard.

"It's amazing that it still has this effect!"

After practicing it in a good way, a voice immediately came from the mobile phone, "The first time, it took ten minutes and twenty seconds." ”

"OMG! It took ten minutes, so I can only practice a few times in an hour! ”

Hearing the time reported by the mobile phone, Jingye was immediately deflated, an hour is one hundred and twenty minutes, which is only enough for oneself to cultivate more than a dozen times, but the task requires fifty times, isn't this a proper pit person.

"It's okay, just wait a while to get it done."

Jingye comforted himself while practicing, and gradually, his movements became faster and faster. Before I knew it, half an hour had passed, and the time for Jingye to practice Luohan Boxing had been reduced from more than ten minutes to two and a half minutes, and it was only a little short of fifty times.

"My fast! My water of life! Work hard and you'll get you! ”

Pure karma wiped the sweat from his head and continued to practice. Unconsciously, I fell into a wonderful feeling, as if I was now a golden-bodied Arhat, and every time I waved my fist, my mood would change a little.

"If I hear it, the Buddha is defending the country for a whileΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

As the pure karma monk practiced over and over again, the small Qingshan Temple actually sounded the ethereal sound of chanting Buddhist scriptures, after this Buddhist sutra entered the ears, pure karma only felt refreshed, as if even time had slowed down.

Just when the pure karma was still unfinished, a voice rang out out at an inopportune time.

"Ding! Beginner Task 2 'Learning Luohan Boxing' has been completed, do I want to claim the reward now? ”

"Pick!"

Jingye didn't even think about it, and said directly.

The golden light flashed, and just like the 'one bell' scene just now, two small white porcelain bowls appeared in the void out of thin air, and slowly fell in front of Jingye.

The white porcelain bowl contains a bowl of white rice and a bowl of water, which looks like an ordinary home-cooked meal.

"What? This fasting has only rice and no vegetables? And this water looks no different from the water in the tank! ”

Jingye complained.

It's just that the hunger that disappeared just now surged up again, and Jingye picked up the white porcelain bowl and pulled it up directly.

"Well, it's delicious, I've never eaten such delicious rice!"

Jingye quickly finished eating a bowl of dry rice and then took the water and drank it in one gulp, and suddenly felt that his stomach was full, and his hunger was swept away.

"Ugh! What kind of rice is this? Why is it so fragrant? Even if you don't have any vegetables, you can just dry up a few large bowls. And this water, sweeter than the mountain spring water, is it sugar? ”

Liu Yu rubbed his chest down with his hand and said with a full burp.

"Rice is spiritual rice, and water is spiritual water. This rice is condensed by the power of incense, and the incense used in the bowl of rice you just ate is about the amount of incense burned in one furnace, that is, the amount of incense ash in an ordinary incense burner. The spiritual water is called 'water of life' and is taken from the river at the foot of the spiritual mountain, and it has the effect of removing impurities from the body, so it is best for you to prepare to expel the impurities now. ”

The metal grinding sound of the system sounded.

"Just such a bowl of rice will burn the ashes of a stove! No wonder people fight for a breath, Buddha fights for a pillar of incense, it seems that if there is no incense after becoming a Buddha, I am afraid that I will be hungry. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a churn in his abdomen, and something seemed to gush out from the middle and lower parts of his body.

"Ahh Isn't that a joke! ”

Jingye roared, rushed from the monk's dormitory to the southeast corner of Qingshan Temple with lightning speed, and just took off his clothes when he heard 'poof! Poof!Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·' After a few sounds, the pit behind him was like the Yellow River flooding out of control.

"System! You're cheating me again! ”

Jingye let out an unwilling roar, where is this water of life, and it is estimated that the rhubarb fried croton does not have such an effect.

Lifting his pants, Jingye began to circle around Qingshan Temple, getting familiar with all the things in this temple.

This temple is located in Daqing Mountain, Shangyi County, HEB Province, and has been built for thousands of years, but because of its remote location, far away from the Daqing Mountain Scenic Area, few pilgrims usually come here to offer incense.

In addition, the old abbot is old and unable to manage the temple, and he has to take care of the disability of pure karma, which makes Qingshan Temple even more dilapidated over the years, and even the golden body of Shakyamuni in the Daxiong Treasure Hall has no money to repair it.

"That's it, it doesn't look like a pilgrim!"

Jingye shook his head as he walked, and he looked at him with a straight tooth. In the entire temple, I am afraid that only the Daxiong Treasure Hall and the monk's dormitory where Jingye lives can still be entered, and the rest have either collapsed or are on the way to collapse.

After entering the Daxiong Treasure Hall, Pure Karma went straight to the "merit box" where he was most concerned. After finding the key according to his memory, he opened it and looked at it, and his head drooped like a deflated ball.

It turned out that there was only one banknote in the merit box, which was still a corner of the old version, and at the current price, I couldn't even afford to buy a steamed bun.

"Why am I so miserable! How could such a broken temple be put on the ground! ”

Complaining is complaining, what should be done still has to be done, after all, as the old saying goes, when a monk hits a bell for a day, now that Jingye is really a monk, the bell that should be hit still has to be hit.

But speaking of which, there is really a broken bronze bell in this Qingshan Temple, which is rusty, it seems that no one has moved it for a long time, the frame supporting the bell has long been broken, and the big wooden hammer that hits the bell does not know where to throw it.
