Chapter 410: Underworld Mission
Shen Luo saw that his expression did not seem to be fake, and even felt a little pity.
"In that case, then I have to find another way, but I still have to thank Miss Ma. Shen Luo hugged his fists.
When Ma Xiuxiu heard this, she didn't respond to Shen Luo immediately, but frowned, looking down and thinking about something.
"Horse Girl......"
Shen Luo waved at her, and she came back to her senses and said with some hesitation:
"Actually, there is another way, it is possible to make that senior willing to help you with alchemy, I wonder if you are willing to try?"
"What method?" Shen Luo hurriedly asked.
"Shen Gongzi, I don't know if you have ever heard of the underworld mission?" asked Ma Xiuxiu a little mysteriously.
"I've heard a little, what's the matter? What you said is related to the task of the underworld?" Shen Luo was slightly stunned, and then asked.
"Not bad. In order to refine a kind of spirit pill, the alchemist senior has been looking for a kind of Huangquan crystal, a spiritual material that is a specialty of the Yin Division, but unfortunately this thing is extremely valued by the Yin Division, and it rarely flows out of the Yang World, so he can't find it. If you can get this thing, then the conditions for alchemy will be much easier to discuss. Ma Xiuxiu nodded.
"Huangquan Crystal ...... Since it's so precious, I'm afraid it's not so easy to get, right?" Shen Luo muttered.
With his previous experience in the few contacts with the Soul Hook Horse Face, Shen Luo knew that the things of Yin Si were not so easy to obtain.
"That's natural, but it just so happens that our Chamber of Commerce is planning to take on a mission from the underworld recently, and the reward is this Huangquan Crystal, if you are willing to go, I can arrange for you to participate in this mission as a member of the Chamber of Commerce." Ma Xiuxiu said.
"But I heard that if you want to take on the task of the underworld, you must at least be a Soul Condensation Stage monk? I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this little bit of Taoism, right?" Shen Luo hesitated.
"It's good to say that, but this mission is a group action, as long as the leader has the cultivation of the Soul Condensation Period, so the level of cultivation is not a problem, and the Bigu Period is enough. Ma Xiuxiu said with a smile.
"I also asked Miss Ma to inform me of the content of the task in detail, so as not to rush forward and drag the Chamber of Commerce back. Shen Luo also had a smile on his face, and asked with his fists clenched.
"Shen Gongzi, don't be presumptuous, generally speaking, most of the tasks of the underworld are related to destroying ghosts and eliminating evil, Shen Gongzi, you are proficient in talismans, and you have a powerful thunder talisman by your side, thinking about it, you are the best candidate to perform this task. Ma Xiuxiu waved her hand at Shen Luo and said.
In this way, Miss Ma has thought about it properly. Shen Luo smiled and said.
"That being said, I still want to remind you that this kind of task is generally not simple, especially this time the pay is so high, and the ghosts to be killed are not simple, you have to think twice before making a decision, just give me an answer before tomorrow afternoon. Ma Xiuxiu's expression was straight and she spoke.
"I took on this task. Shen Luo thought to himself for a moment and said.
"This task is still half a month away, you don't have to be too anxious to make a decision, the time is in time. When Ma Xiuxiu heard this, she was also slightly stunned, and said with some surprise.
"I thought about it, and I took it. Miss Ma has already thought so much about me, if I still hesitate, I will not live up to the girl's good intentions. Shen Luo smiled and cut the railroad to the point.
"Shen Gongzi is really courageous, but you don't have to worry too much this time, the leader of this mission is a late-stage Soul Condensation Worshipper of our Chamber of Commerce, he has done many underworld missions, he has not tasted defeat over the years, and the battle damage rate of each mission is very low. As long as you do exactly what he says, there will be no problem. In addition, I will ask him to take care of him a little more. Ma Xiuxiu's eyes flashed with a look of appreciation and said.
"Thank you very much. Shen Luo hugged his fists.
"Shen Gongzi, you don't have to be so polite with me. Ma Xiuxiu smiled a little again.
After that, she took her leave and left.
When it was close to noon, Shen Luo also left the small courtyard and went to the West Market, where shops gathered, to purchase a batch of rune paper and various spiritual materials for making rune ink.
He wants to use this half month to draw more talismans to deal with this underworld mission.
......
Time flies, and it's half a month later.
In the early morning of this day, without waiting for Shen Luo to rush to Jubaotang, a carriage came outside the door of the small courtyard, saying that it was sent by Ma Xiuxiu and picked him up to gather.
After Shen Luo packed up the talisman and magic weapon, he boarded the carriage and headed all the way to the west of the city.
Along the way through the streets and a city, the carriage walked for a long time, passing by a tall door, Shen Luo lifted the sedan curtain to see, only to find that it had arrived at the Yongxing Fang in the northwest of the city.
"How did you get here?" Shen Luo asked suspiciously.
"The meeting place is in Yongxingfang, don't worry, we'll be there soon. The groom explained.
Shen Luo originally thought that he should gather outside the city to carry out the task of catching ghosts, but he didn't expect it to be in Yongxingfang, which is close to the imperial city.
Along the road to the north, the carriage finally stopped.
Shen Luo jumped down from the car, looked up and looked ahead, and saw a magnificent tall building standing not far in front of him, and there were two stone lions of human height in front of him, which looked mighty.
"City God's Temple......"
Shen Luo looked at the plaque hanging on the lintel of the building, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Just as he was wondering, another carriage came from behind, and from it stepped down a tall man in a short brown shirt, with a huge brass axe on his back, and strode towards him.
He walked up to him, glanced at Shen Luo, who was a head lower than himself, and said angrily, "You are also here to gather?"
Shen Luo glanced at the man, and saw that his forehead was broad, the bridge of his nose was not high, his lips were quite thick, and he looked honest and simple, and nodded a little inexplicably.
"Me too, let's go together. The tall man raised his hand and walked up the stairs first.
Shen Luo hesitated for a moment, then stepped up and followed.
"My name is Lu He, what do you call me?" the man asked when he saw Shen Luo coming up.
"Sinking down. Shen Luo hugged his fists.
"It seems that you are participating in the mission for the first time?" Lu He glanced at Shen Luo and asked again.
"It's the first time, and I also ask Taoist friends for advice. Shen Luo said.
"I can't talk about any advice, I'm just participating for the third time, anyway, I'm just following Hu Yong's predecessors. Lu He said.
"Senior Hu Yong?" Shen Luo said in surprise.
"Don't you know? This time the leader is Hu Yong's senior, as long as you follow him honestly and listen to his instructions to do things, you will not easily lose your life. Lu He's eyes were full of convincing and said.
"Who is this senior Hu Yong, why is he so powerful?" Shen Luo wondered.
"You don't need to ask so much, in short, the most important thing to do the task is not to be smart, just follow the instructions of Hu Yong's predecessors. Lu He waved his hand impatiently and said.
As the two spoke, they crossed the threshold one after the other and walked into the gate of the City God Temple.
