Chapter 730: Missing

The intense part-time work life lasted for another whole day, and the number of commissions accepted by Lin Xiuqi exceeded 20, although he was "atoning" for Gu Xiaoman, but before the truth of the matter was revealed, no one could be sure whether Gu Xiaoman was really guilty, let alone punished in advance.

At the behest of Sikong Suqing, Sikong Jing issued several rules regarding the entrustment of Lin Xiuqi.

First, once Lin Xiuqi completes the 100 commissions, he can be freed immediately, and if the result of the investigation of the Zhai Lele incident is that Lin Xiuqi and the three of them are guilty, they will be dealt with in other ways.

Second, Lin Xiuqi is not obliged to provide free services, and if the final investigation results show that Lin Xiuqi and the three are not guilty, all those who initiate the commission to Lin Xiuqi will need to pay back the payment.

Third, Zhai Lele is a victim, if it is unfair for others to take advantage of this income, but those who entrust Lin Xiuqi need to estimate the normal commission remuneration and give 30% of it to Zhai Lele.

There is also an additional statement that the Mangyuan Society will make every effort to adjust the Zhai Lele incident, and use all the means that the Mangyuan Society can use to make the criminals hand over three times the resources entrusted by Lin Xiuqi.

As soon as the three rules and additional statements came out, Lin Xiuqi's entrustment decreased instantly.

The monks of the Mangyuan Society have no evil intentions, but everyone has desires, and at first there were some serious commissions, and then gradually turned into a task that required a large number of spirit insects and fourth-level fierce beasts that were completely for their own benefit.

If this continues, the reputation of the Mangyuan Society will plummet, and in addition, such an intensive commission has left Lin Xiuqi with no time to cultivate, and if he doesn't mention whether he will have an opinion, the elders of the academy and even the dean will not sit idly by.

At the same time, the significance of the additional statement is significant, many of the people of the Mangyuan Society are monks of the Three Five Holy Families, and their status may not be high, but the influence of the joint voice should not be underestimated, if it is found that the heirs of a certain family have poisoned Zhai Lele and Gu Xiaoman, maybe the Three Five Holy Families will come forward directly, and according to the estimation of three times the value of the commission completed by Lin Xiuqi, a small family will go bankrupt in an instant.

This additional statement is to make the criminal surrender as soon as possible, otherwise it will drag down his family or sect.

Lin Xiuqi didn't care about Mangyuanhui's series of meaningful actions, he only knew that he finally had some free time, dragged his slightly tired body, returned from outside the east gate, and returned to the cave after delivering the twenty-third task.

He had just reached the halfway point of the mountain when he noticed a woman waiting.

"Guo Daoyou, why are you here?"

The person who came was Guo Xinying, her expression was a little flustered, obviously something had happened.

"Brother Lin, I'...... I want to ask you for help, I don't know if it's inconvenient for you?"

"What's the matter?"

"Cheng De is missing!"

"Brother Song is missing, when did it happen?"

"It was last night! I originally agreed to meet in my cave, but he didn't show up all night, and I didn't participate in today's compulsory course, I went to his cave to look for it, and found this!"

Guo Xinying took out a sound transmission jade talisman, and after inputting spiritual power, a picture appeared on the jade talisman.

There are some scribbled marks in the picture, and it is not even handwriting.

"Guo Daoyou, this is ......"

"Oh, that's right! Cheng De and I are from a casual cultivation background, and many times we will encounter accidents, so we have made an agreement in advance that if we can't notify each other, we will leave some codes that only the two of us can understand!"

"The meaning of these codes is ......"

"Ghost Spirit Sect!"

"Are you saying that Brother Song was captured by the people of the Ghost Spirit Sect?"

"I don't know if it was captured, it can only be said that it is related to the Ghost Spirit Sect!"

"Any other clues?"

"There are traces of battle in his cave, and there is some strange dark aura in it, I went to Elder Wu Shan for help, and she also thinks that it is very likely that the Ghost Spirit Sect monk did it. ”

"You came to me for hope......"

"I hope Brother Lin can help get Cheng De back! I and Cheng De are loose cultivators with no background, and we don't have any resources, only you are the strongest among the people we know, if there is any other way, I won't trouble you!"

As she spoke, tears flickered in Guo Xinying's eyes.

Based on Lin Xiuqi's understanding of Guo Xinying, this woman is indeed not the kind of character with exposed emotions, judging from Fang Cai's expression, it is obvious that she will hesitate again and again to ask him for help.

"I can try to find this thing, but I can't guarantee the result!"

"It's okay! As long as Brother Lin can help, no matter what the result is, I will thank you! Even if you serve for the rest of your life!"

"Guo Daoyou, we enrolled at the same time, Brother Song is humble, how can I stand idly by?"

"Thank you, Brother Lin!"

After that, Guo Xinying bowed, but was stopped by Lin Xiuqi.

"I don't know what kind of sect the Ghost Spirit Sect is?"

"The Ghost Spirit Sect is a ghost cultivation sect in the Ghost Domain!"

"Where the hell is the Ghost Domain?"

"Hmm...... Lin Daoyou, do you know that there is a ring belt in the enchantment?"

"I've heard a little about it, but I don't know it!"

"The Yuan Spirit Enchantment is divided into three ring belts: primary, intermediate and advanced, each ring has a different aura concentration, the primary ring zone has the lowest aura concentration, the four major academies, barbarian tribes and some small sects and small families are all in the primary ring zone. Some powerful forces, such as the Five Holy Families and the Grandmaster Palace, were established in the Intermediate Ring Belt. Originally, super forces such as the Three Venerable Families lived in the high-level ring belt, but I heard that in recent years, there have been constant conflicts between the strong in the high-level ring belt, and most of the forces have moved their headquarters back to the intermediate ring belt!

"Isn't that similar to the meridians of the earth?"

"Yes, yes, yes! It is indeed similar to what mortals call warp, so analogous, different rings are more like wefts!"

"Wait! Is there a barrier separating the rings?"

"Yes, to enter the intermediate ring belt, you need to reach the Jindan stage of cultivation, and to enter the advanced ring belt, you need to cultivate higher. ”

"Is it the same as the principle of entering the enchantment in the mortal world?"

"Yes!"

"The Ghost Domain has also been divided into three parts?"

"No! The ghost domain is more special, there are some dark aura that is difficult to eliminate all year round, which is not suitable for monks to live in, and over time, there are even some breaths that gradually gather into a gaseous thing to wander around, and are called ghosts by monks, and people who use ghosts as resources to cultivate are called ghost cultivators, and the ghost spirit sect is the sect of ghost cultivation, no!

"Is the ghost cultivator very powerful?"

"The technique used by the ghost cultivator is called the ghost technique, which has the effect of fascinating the mind, and because the sword is on the side, it will also become a half-human and half-ghost existence!"

"The price is too great, there is more than one way to become stronger, why bother!"

"Does Lin Xiuqi know what the strongest technique is?"

"Illusion exercises!"

"Yes! Except for some innate mazes, and some artifacts have hallucinogenic effects, real illusion techniques are extremely rare, according to rumors, there is only one sect that I don't know if it exists, and ghost magic is very close to illusion exercises, in order to become stronger, naturally many people are willing to take risks!"

"Is there anything else I need to be aware of?"

"Monks who fall in the ghost realm will give birth to a remnant spirit, similar to ghosts, and will wander around and strike at all living beings!"

"Could it be the soul of a fallen monk?"

"No, it's just a projection, but maybe it has something to do with the soul, and no one knows what it is!"

"Wait! If the ghost realm is similar to the meridians on the earth, wouldn't it be accessible anywhere!"

"No! due to the existence of a dark aura in the ghost domain, if it is allowed to spread, maybe the earth will be polluted, there have been powerful people who have blocked the ghost domain, and set up an enchantment barrier at the border, there are only six places where you can go to the ghost domain, and the closest to Mangyuan Academy is the Imperial Ghost City!"

Cui Wujun's family is in the ghost city!"

"That's right! The city lord of the Imperial Ghost City is the head of the Cui family, and he is also the father of Cui Wucheng and Cui Wujun, Cui Wenhan!"

"Guo Daoyou, where is Cui Wujun now?"

"I'll tell you the truth, I found out that it may be that the Ghost Spirit Sect monk also suspected the Cui family after making a move, but Cui Wucheng and Cui Wujun have already returned to the family one after another, and they can't continue to investigate!"

"I see, it looks like they really did it!"
