Chapter 67: Mandatory Missions

In March, when the spring flowers were blooming, Luo Xiao's cultivation was also getting better, if nothing else, he was sure that the shadow of the wind would be successful before and after the summer.

However, at this time, the sequelae of his original "fame in a fight" also began to appear, and from time to time, black belt disciples who had exchanged the Shadow of the Wind Mystery cultivation method and even some deacons appeared in the Dragon Roar Valley, and this unpopular mystery suddenly became popular.

In order not to divulge his cultivation, whenever someone broke through, Luo Xiao could only avoid the side, and only after the other party failed and left in disappointment, he could practice for a while. Once someone came, he had to "give way", which greatly reduced his daily cultivation time.

In order to make up for the delayed cultivation time, Luo Xiao had to choose to practice at night or even early in the morning. However, in this way, the difficulty greatly increased due to the reduced visibility unexpectedly made up for the lack of difficulty due to the significant weakening of the wind after the beginning of spring, which can be regarded as a windfall.

Halfway through March, just as Luo Xiao was preparing to start a day of cultivation as usual, a Gushou disciple uncharacteristically appeared in front of his house made of thick logs, and this time it was not a meal, but a message, or rather, an order.

"Luo Xiao, a disciple of Xiuwutang, will return to the Supervision Yuan for training as soon as he sees the order?"

Luo Xiao looked at the instructions in his hand, it was indeed covered with the big seal of the Martial Arts Hall, this is true, but what could it be? Luo Xiao didn't dare to hesitate, and thought about it while packing up his things and getting on the horse. He had a hunch that maybe his cultivation plan was going to end early.

Sure enough, when Luo Xiao hurried up, returned to the Xiuwu Hall, walked straight to the top of the thousand-foot peak, and stepped into the Supervision Academy, the supervisor Pang Yuanfeng, who had been waiting a little impatiently, squinted his usual cold eyes, looked at the increasingly surprising disciple in front of him, and said lightly: "Since you are a black belt disciple, this supervisor will assign you a red-level task." ”

The black belt disciples of Xiuwutang are all elites who are expected to advance to the rank of samurai, and they have special protection procedures for this special group, and basically they will not be forced to assign tasks, which is also to prevent retaliation from being taken hostage. If there are indeed special circumstances that require the designation of a black belt disciple to send out the task, at least the supervisor, the supervisor, the chief teacher, and the chief deacon, and any two of the four major directors of the Xiuwu Hall agree and issue an order before it can take effect.

Luo Xiao saw that the compulsory task issuance order in his hand was issued by the supervisor and the chief deacon, and there was only one task: the three major martial arts halls of Heshuo County should be invited by the city guard of Baicao City to send three disciples to form three teams to assist the border army of Baicao City to go deep into the Gobi grassland and reconnoiter the situation of the Tule people. This quest is marked with a red level, and the participating disciples have a staggering fifty merit points.

"Each city will send a team, each team will approve eleven people, led by a deacon or instructor, and ten disciples above the fourth order. Pang Yuanfeng looked at Luo Xiao lightly, "You are a member of the Yishui team, the reason why you were selected is because of your Orion background, for a reconnaissance team, having a hunter as a teammate is very beneficial to completing the task." As a result, depending on your expertise and level, you'll be served as a team vice-captain. ”

Only then did Luo Xiao understand why he chose himself, of course, he understood the other meaning of "origin" that Pang Yuanfeng said, he was just a cloth kid, and when the border was needed, Xiuwutang would give priority to reporting. is also a black belt disciple, a child of a family like Wu Junyan, unless he takes the initiative to sign up, he will never appear on the list.

Luo Xiao was silent for a moment: "The disciple has something unclear, I don't know ......"

Pang Yuanfeng waved his hand generously: "It's okay, if you don't know, just ask." ”

Luo Xiao frowned and said, "The disciple doesn't understand, this is the duty of the border army, why do you want a disciple of the Martial Arts Hall to carry out such a task?"

"Because although the Wuyang Kingdom and the Tule people are tense, there are also Turle cavalry shadows on the border from time to time, and the caravans of the merchants are also frequently attacked, but the Tule people have not officially violated the border, and the two armies have not clashed directly. Under such circumstances, if our DPRK sends troops deep into the territory of Tul, once it is discovered and captured, it will be regarded as an unauthorized border provocation, and the consequences cannot be borne by the border army. Pang Yuanfeng stopped staring at Luo Xiao when he said this, "Now you understand?"

Luo Xiao nodded, without officially declaring war, it is indeed inappropriate to send troops deep into the Tule people's sphere of influence to spy on the enemy's situation, once they are captured by mistake, it will become an excuse for the Tule people to start a war. It is best to have an organization with no military background to take on the responsibility of reconnaissance in the vanguard of the army. And the Martial Arts Hall is the most suitable organization, and the actual combat is also an excellent tempering for the disciples of the Martial Arts Hall.

"The disciple has no doubts. Luo Xiao bowed and retreated, and when he turned around, he seemed to remember something, and asked casually: "I don't know where Lord Prison is?"

"I know what you're trying to say. Pang Yuanfeng snorted coldly, exuding a terrifying and powerful aura all over his body, pressing towards Luo Xiao like a mountain, "Supervisor Qin is being summoned to Beijing, and as for Chief Lei Sect, he has already been invited to the border to train and integrate the disciples who should be called to the border." How's that? Are you satisfied with the answer?"

Luo Xiao exited the lobby step by step, still feeling that the pressure was imminent, and it was not until he withdrew from the Supervision Institute that the pressure slowly dissipated. Luo Xiao gently wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long breath: "Qinglong Warrior, it's really terrifying. ”

Fortunately, after these months of hard cultivation, his breathing technique has reached the intermediate level, and the shell of breath is nearly twice thicker than before, covering the yuan core tightly, otherwise it is really hard to say that under such a terrifying pressure, the yuan core will not be uncontrolled and stimulate a rebound due to strong pressure......

......

Probably because of a paramilitary mission, it took only one day from the time it was accepted to the time it was assembled.

In order to avoid being approached by the secret organization, and in order to facilitate the gathering, Luo Xiao did not return to his own house, but lived in the disciples' house of the Xiuwu Hall. During the three years he spent in the Xiuwu Hall, he lived in this disciple's house for less than three months, that is, the period when he first entered the hall, and he did not return for more than two years after that. And because of the large number of low-level disciples who were recruited to the side, the disciples of this association were obviously much deserted, at least he was the only one in this eight-person shop where he was.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, after dealing with breakfast casually, Luo Xiao went to the meeting place "Third Martial Arts Hall" on time.

When they arrived at the meeting point, the members of the Yishui reconnaissance team had almost arrived, and there were nine people in total, except for the deacon who led the team and a team member who had not arrived for some reason.

Of the eight disciples except Luo Xiao, seven are red belts and one is black belts. I studied and cultivated in the same hall, and I didn't see anything when I looked up, and I basically knew my face, but I couldn't name it, and I didn't meet it on weekdays.

"Luo Mangzi, I watched you fight with Zhong Yan, haha, it's really reckless!" The blackbelt disciple stepped forward with a smile and greeted, "I'm Wang Yanjie, a disciple of the Heavenly Rank B, I'm glad to meet you." ”

The rest of the Red Belt disciples stepped forward to salute and introduce themselves:

"In Xu Yunkai, I am very fortunate to be able to go on a mission with Senior Brother Luo. ”

"In the next time, please take care of Senior Brother Luo. ”

"Under ......"

Luo Xiao returned the salute while secretly sensing the cultivation strength of these soon-to-be-becoming partners, which made him quite disappointed. Although most of these disciples are red belts, their breath is weak and unstable. Instability means that most of them have just been promoted to the Red Belt and their realm has not yet stabilized, while the weak breath indicates that their Yuan Species is on the small side, and most of them belong to the "bean level". Under normal circumstances, such a disciple with a superficial foundation, the fifth order is their peak, and there is almost no hope of being promoted to a warrior.

Even the only black belt disciple, Wang Yanjie, is only in the early stage of quenching his intestines, and his breath is not weak, but he is average, far inferior to Wu Junyan.

However, in the same way, Wang Yanjie was also quite disappointed after sensing Luo Xiao's cultivation: this guy is also very ordinary, on par with himself, it seems that he can defeat Zhong Yan, and it must be the mystery that he relies on...... Thinking like this, my heart became even more eager, secretly thinking that once this mission was successful, the merit points obtained would definitely be enough to exchange for the mysteries of the Shadow of the Wind and some resources needed for cultivation, and that unfathomable physical skill would definitely be able to be practiced by myself!

Just when Luo Xiao and Wang Yanjie were disappointed with each other, a middle-aged man with a beard with an iron turtle buckle also frowned and walked into the hall, looking at Luo Xiao, Wang Yanjie and other disciples, and sighed secretly: Are these the reconnaissance teams that he is about to lead out of the fortress? What a disappointment!

"The leader of the team is here!" the sharp-eyed Shi Yuan snorted, and his eyes lit up at the same time, "It's Wang Jiaoxi!"

He strode in front of the disciples around his beard, and his voice was like a bell: "I am the leader of this Yishui reconnaissance team, Wang Chong - assemble! roll call!"

Luo Xiao and the other disciples immediately stood in a row according to their rank and height as they usually practiced.

At the head of the queue was Luo Xiao, the deputy of the internal team, and shouted loudly: "Disciple Luo Xiao report." ”

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yanjie shouted: "Disciple Wang Yanjie report for duty." ”

"Disciple Xu Yunkai ......"

"Disciple Shi Yuan ......"

When the last disciple finished registering, Wang Chong frowned: "Why are there only nine people?

"Disciple...... Segment...... Duan Qinglan...... Check in!"

With the sound of panting, the last member of the team, a thin girl with a red belt around her waist, appeared in front of everyone.
