29. Tasks

Li Qianrou's hand holding the bowl trembled, and asked in a trembling voice:

"Did anyone knock on your door last night?"

"Yes, they knocked on my door first, then Bai Gulan's, and finally yours." Chu Nan said.

"Who knocked it? Did you open the door? Bai Gulan put down the bowl in her hand and asked nervously.

"I didn't open the door, I don't know who it was, I came to visit in the middle of the night, and I was either a traitor or a thief." Chu Nan took a sip of porridge and continued, "You two didn't hear it? ”

"I didn't hear it, I was so tired yesterday that I slept too hard." Bai Gulan glanced at Li Qianrou, but neither of them heard it.

"Okay. If someone knocks on the door tonight, I advise you not to open the door. After Chu Nan finished speaking, he took care of himself and left.

She's going to take a walk around and get a feel for her surroundings.

An hour later, Chu Nan finished walking around the nearby woods, and did not find any other houses, yesterday the sixth senior brother Fu Zhixing said that the senior brothers and sisters live in various places in the valley, but in this vicinity, only the three of them live.

Back at their residence, Li Qianrou and Bai Gulan basked in the sun by the river.

Chu Nan was speechless, these two chicks really have a big heart.

"I'm going to go to the Jiuji Mountain Academy, do you want to go?" Chu Nan asked.

"Good! It's so boring here. Li Qianrou opened her mouth to agree, and Bai Gulan did not object.

The three of them cleaned up and set off for the Jiuji Mountain Academy.

…………

Half an hour later, Chu Nan and the three of them sat on the Jiuji Mountain Square, looking at a wall on the mountainside in a daze.

This wall is a task wall, but the disciples call it the wall of life and death, which lists the demon killing tasks that are currently being carried out in Jiuji Mountain, as well as the life card of the executor.

There are a total of six missions on the wall today, and there are a total of fifty-six people's life cards on them.

"Are there only fifty-six people left today?"

"Yes, there were sixty-six yesterday."

"So last night, a total of ten disciples died?"

The surrounding discussions reached the ears of Chu Nan and the three of them, giving them goosebumps and chills.

"Ten people died in one night, it's too exaggerated......" Bai Gulan wanted to cry, she was afraid.

"No wonder we are recruiting disciples every day now." Li Qianrou also felt anxious.

Then the three of them lost the interest of strolling any further, and got up and returned to the Valley of the Strangers.

…………

Night, Valley of the Odds.

Today, like yesterday, after dark, it's pitch black.

Listening carefully, there was not even any sound of frogs, birds, fish and insects, and the silence was terrifying.

The wind occasionally blows before there is a rustle of leaves rubbing.

"It's so wrong, it's like it's cut off." Chu Nan said.

"Uh-huh." Li Qianrou and Bai Gulan nodded again and again beside them.

The two girls were too timid, and when they heard Chu Nan say that someone came knocking on the door at night, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to go back to their rooms.

Since the two girls were there, Chu Nan didn't let go of the chicken Youwei and Pupil Wangcai, but if you count the time, the demon mask man appeared at this point yesterday.

"Knock knock!" There was a sharp knock on the door.

Li Qianrou and Bai Gulan's eyes widened, and they were terrified, but fortunately, Chu Nan had greeted them in advance, so they didn't scream.

After three knocks on the door, the demon masked man turned around and went to Bai Gulan's room again.

No one responded to Bai Gulan's room, and the demon masked man came to Li Qianrou's room again, still knocking on the door in a hurry.

There were three more knocks on the door, but no one answered.

At this time yesterday, the Demon Masked Man left, but today he didn't, but returned to the door of Chu Nan's room.

"Senior sister, open the door, I'm the sixth senior brother Fu Zhixing."

Fu Zhixing's voice came from outside, and the voice was exactly the same as Fu Zhixing.

"It's the sixth senior brother!" Li Qianrou whispered, her voice pressed to the lowest.

"Stupid." Chu Nan replied.

"Why are you scolding me!" Li Qianrou was angry.

"It's really Senior Brother Six, why didn't you identify yourself at first, but knocked for a while, and no one responded, before you spoke? Besides, you don't have to visit in the middle of the night. Chu Nan still explained.

After Li Qianrou and Bai Gulan heard this, the two hugged each other tighter.

Chu Nan tried the system search, but through the door, it had no effect.

Seeing that no one responded, the demon masked people outside finally chose to leave.

This night, Bai Gulan and Li Qianrou all squeezed into Chu Nan's room and slept.

Early the next morning, Bai Gulan was cooking breakfast, and Fu Zhixing, who had not been seen for a few days, appeared.

"Have the three junior sisters adapted to life in the valley in the past two days?" Fu Zhixing asked with a smile.

"Sixth Senior Brother, did you knock on our door last night?" Li Qianrou took the opportunity to ask.

"No, I've been down the mountain for the past few days, and I only got up this morning." Fu Zhixing replied, not looking like a fake.

Then Li Qianrou told Fu Zhixing about the fact that someone knocked on the door in the middle of the night in the past two nights.

After Fu Zhixing listened, his brows furrowed, and he thought for a while before he spoke:

"A few junior sisters have done the right thing, in this troubled world, everything has to be careful, and this is also the purpose of my coming here today."

After Fu Zhixing finished speaking, he then handed Chu Nan a waist card to each of them.

"This is your waist card, with this card, you can go to all the classes in Jiuji Mountain." Fu Zhixing explained, and then continued:

"This is also your life card, everyone has two life cards, one on you and one in the sect."

"If you die, the Destiny Card will be destroyed with it."

"You will start to enter the mountain gate tomorrow to study, and you will also begin to accept the tasks assigned by the sect, I hope you can all survive."

Fu Zhixing said a lot in one breath, and he didn't know how many of the three junior sisters in front of him would survive, or how long they would live.

"Can I skip the task?" Li Qianrou asked, she grew up under the care of her family since she was a child, and she had heard of it and had never been in contact with it, but she was scared when she saw that the mortality rate on the mission was so high yesterday.

"No, once the task is issued and it is not carried out, it will be regarded as a deserter and will be executed directly." Fu Zhixing replied.

Li Qianrou and Bai Gulan both showed frightened expressions, only Chu Nan was expressionless, she had a lot of strange contacts, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

"This time, in addition to giving you life cards, I also have to explain some things to you."

"When you go on a mission, don't easily trust the people from the other peaks of Jiuji Mountain."

Fu Zhixing admonished.

"Why?" Bai Gulan asked.

"Because we don't have a good relationship with other peaks, and we even have a grudge, so we are likely to be targeted." Fu Zhixing explained.

Chu Nan and the three of them were speechless, there are so many enemies in the Valley of Strangers, no wonder you don't have to pay tuition fees when you enter the Valley of Strangers.

"If you are still alive after half a year, you will be allowed to become the inner disciples of the Strange Man Valley, this is the rule of our Strange Man Valley."

"Finally, I wish a few junior sisters good luck."

After Fu Zhixing finished speaking, he got up and left, leaving Chu Nan and the three of them looking at each other.
