When Qi Ya and Ning Ling came back, it was already three hours later.

The sun sets in the west, and the sunset dyes the entire western sky red.

Su Man saw that their faces were not good, and remembered that they had said that the two women were missing, and the result might not be good, so he didn't ask again.

No wonder Ning Ling killed the killer as soon as he saw the head descending master, obviously not hoping for the survival of the two missing women.

When the sons and daughters of China fall into the hands of these foreigners, they will generally commit suicide as soon as possible, otherwise they must be worse than dead.

Therefore, the entire Chinese cultivation community pursues an attitude of killing all the Wu clan head descenders, Ujima swordsmen and onmyoji, Daguang swordsmen, Siamese boxers, Brahmin ascetics, etc.

The four of them spent the night on a small boat.

Su Man knew that Qi Ya and Ning Ling were masters of the Qi Transformation Period, and he had already determined in his heart that they were disciples of the Taihua Sect, and knew that if they wanted to return to Lanzhu Island, it would only take more than a quarter of an hour, but the two of them still accompanied him and Zheng Cao to eat dry food and fruits in the boat, and they respected the character of the disciples of the Taihua Sect in their hearts.

Qi Ya lay on the partition beam of the boat, holding her head, looking up at the starlight in the sky, and said, "Actually, we came out to take two missions. ”

"Seventy-three blue pearls will give you twenty-one gold coins. ”

"Investigate the cause of the disappearance of the two heroines, you can get ten gold coins, and you can also get ten gold coins for killing a first-grade head lowering master. ”

"And. ”

Qi Ya said with a smile: "We have found a new island, although it is smaller than Lanzhu Island, but it is not bad, and if you report it to Chang'an League, you should also have a reward of hundreds of gold coins." ”

Su Man thought to himself, it should be the lair of the Wu Clan's head descender.

Zheng Cao was already happily asked, "In that direction?" Why don't we go and see it tomorrow?" ”

Qi Ya said with a smile: "Eight hundred miles to the northeast, it should be nine hundred miles from Lanzhu Island. ”

It only takes an hour for two Qi Stage masters to fly once, but it takes more than a day to travel to the boat.

Zheng Cao said disappointedly: "This is too far, forget it, let's go back tomorrow!"

Su Man smiled and said, "The discovery of the island was done by Sister Ya and Ling'er outside the mission, and the income does not need to be counted in our mission." ”

Qi Ya and Ning Ling killed the head descending master, so that the pearl diving task could be successfully completed, and they contributed the most, Su Man and Zheng Cao were basically picking up blue beads and sharing them with others, they were already ashamed, how could they share the reward for discovering the new island.

Qi Ya waved his hand and said: "When I first took the task and went out, I said that I would divide it equally, and all the income would be divided equally, regardless of direct or accidental gains." ”

Su Man and Zheng Cao both refused repeatedly.

Ning Ling said with a smile: "The two sisters don't need to be so polite, this world is getting bigger and bigger, a few of our sisters can meet, and if we are together for more than ten days, it is a great fate, don't let us have a share because of a few gold coins." ”

Su Man and Zheng Cao heard this, so they had to give up.

The next day, the four of them set off back to Lanzhu Island, Ning Ling carefully drew the newly discovered island topography on Lanzhu Island, discussed and calculated with Qi Ya, and determined the relative orientation of the new island and Lanzhu Island.

Su Man's annotation and calculation of Ning Ling on the map are like reading a book from heaven.

Ning Ling explained for a while, and seeing that she didn't even understand many basic geometric arithmetic, she said: "Sister Man, this knowledge is recorded in the Taihua Treasure Pavilion, you can buy a set when you go back, and you will understand it by taking a look at it." ”

"There are books like this?"

Su Man was pleasantly surprised that she had been wandering around China for many years, and every time she went to a big city, she would look for a place to sell books.

Learning new exercises is one aspect, and the other main purpose is to see what has changed in the world and what has become of it.

It's a pity that there are a lot of ordinary martial arts books, but they are no longer suitable for her.

There are very few books that describe the changes and conditions of the world.

Ning Ling said that he had never seen any of these books of new knowledge.

"I don't know if there are Treasure Pavilions in other places, but there must be Treasure Pavilions in Chang'an. ”

Ning Ling said with a smile: "Sister Man, after going back to hand in the task this time, is it ready to take on a new task, or go back to Taihua." ”

Su Man was saving money and was about to buy a house in Chang'an, when he heard the words, he said: "I'll go and see the task again, and if there is a suitable one, I will take it, and after a while, I will return to Chang'an." ”

Ning Ling knew that this newly-met sister was very assertive, nodded, told Su Man her address in Chang'an, and said, "I've been out for three years, and I have to go back this time, Sister Man went back to Chang'an, so go find me." ”

Su Man wrote it down.

The four of them returned to Horseshoe Town, returned the sailboat, got on the passenger ship of the Nujiao faction, and returned to Chang'an Island after a few days.

On the periphery of the Chang'an League, there are still crowds of people every day, and it is very lively.

Most of the people who came back to hand in the task like the four of them got rich rewards, smiling happily and walking with the wind.

The four of them were still resting in the teahouse called Yuebanwan, the three of them drank tea and waited, and Qi Ya carried the task items to Taihua Building to hand in the task.

But half an hour, Qi Ya came back with a smile.

"Rich! Rich!"

Zheng Cao hilariously reached out and brushed the chair, invited Qi Ya to a seat, and poured tea again, looking like a dog's leg.

Qi Ya sat down with a horizontal knife and said in a deep voice: "Little ones, today you will drink wine in a big bowl and eat meat in a big piece." ”

"Big scales divide gold!" Zheng Cao said.

Su Man and Ning Ling both looked at them funny, and they both laughed and lay on the table.

Qi Ya laughed, took out the task receipt, and said: "Thirty-one gold coins for two tasks, ten gold coins for killing the head descender, Xindao gave us one hundred and eighty gold coins, and another twenty rewards for cleaning up Xindao." ”

"Sisters, we have a total of two hundred and forty-one gold coins. ”

The three of them cheered, thinking that they could get about one hundred and fifty, and they didn't want to have nearly a hundred more windfalls.

Qi Ya divided sixty gold coins for each person, and the remaining three blue beads were one for Su Man, Zheng Cao, and Ning Ling, and the last gold coin was just used to eat and drink tea, and the four of them celebrated in the middle of the moon.

After eating and drinking, Su Man said goodbye and left, taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, she had to go to Taihua Tower to see if there were other suitable tasks.

Zheng Cao also left immediately, she was traveling all over the world, doing tasks casually, and with this windfall, she could live comfortably for a few years.

Qi Ya and Ning Ling sent the two away, and also out of the teahouse, just about to speak, they heard a crane, a crane spread its wings, jumped out of the clouds, with overwhelming momentum, descended on the roof of Taihua, its wings fluttered slightly, hovering outside the nine-story balcony.

On the back of the crane, a slender young man glanced at the bustling street and walked into the ninth floor of the Taihua Building.

"Wow!"

"It's an official disciple of the Taihua Sect!"

"Which peak disciple of the Taihua Sect is this?"

Their disciple has been very active all these years!"

"Kongtong Peak is also very powerful, I've seen it, killing a Siamese boxer is like killing a grass chicken!"

"Which peak? The Royal Crane travels, at least on the four peaks!"

"Go to the four peaks! I heard that it is very powerful, but I have never seen it!"

......

There was a noise on the street, and he was amazed, looking at the ninth floor of Taihua Building, his eyes were full of envy.

"Ling'er, Senior Brother Yihua is here, I'm afraid I'm going to arrest you back!"

Ning Ling, naturally Yue Ling'er, covered her forehead when she heard this, "I said that I would definitely go back, but I didn't feel at ease, and I sent my brother to arrest me, hum!"

Qi Ya smiled: "A year ago, you said the same thing in Beihai, where does my aunt dare to believe you?"

"Let's go!"

The two of them didn't fly, they walked in from the first floor of Taihua Building, and went all the way up to the seventh floor of stairs, where a Taihua miscellaneous disciple who seemed to have a high status stopped the two.

"Two girls, please stop, the upstairs is a place for the disciples of this sect to use for their own use, and does not accept outsiders, please forgive me. ”

Qi Ya tilted his head slightly, and the long sword on his back struck out of its sheath for half a foot, revealing four Qin seals, 'Taihua Qi Ya'.

The miscellaneous disciples were startled, took a step back, and bowed.

"I've seen Aunt Qi!"

The Taihua Sect stipulates that those who use the words such as 'Zhongnan' and 'Shaohua' with their names with their swords can only be regarded as the outer disciples of the Taihua Sect.

Those who use the word Taihua and add their names are the official disciples of the Taihua Sect, who are basically disciples of the Qi Transformation Period, and there are only about 500 people in the whole sect.

These 500 or so people are the top existence among the more than 2 million people under the jurisdiction of the Taihua Sect and a radius of 6,000 miles.
