Chapter 52: Lies
Although he had told Yan Xiqin in advance before leaving, He Ping still didn't want her to worry, and as soon as he returned to Annan City, he went straight to find her.
But to his surprise, Yan Xiqin was no longer there.
After some inquiry, he learned that Yan Xiqin was picked up by his third uncle, and he took Yan Xi with him.
In this way, He Ping can be regarded as relieved, her third uncle will not harm her after all.
The sky is full of stars, and I am intoxicated.
He Ping was lying on the bed, the temperature of the spirit plate on his chest was still cold, if Lin Guangyao found this magic weapon, he would definitely have to return it with both hands.
It's just that I don't know where Lin Guangyao has gone now, maybe Lin Guangyao died in the hands of Jiang Heng, but it is more likely that Lin Guangyao escaped with some secret treasure.
Looking back on the past, it is already embarrassing, except for him, all the people who took this task died, and none of them were spared.
But fortunately, He Ping himself survived.
He still has to go to the monk's workshop tomorrow to complete the task, He Ping still doesn't know how to complete the task, so he can only wait for tomorrow to ask again, these fifty spirit stones are too important to him.
It was enough to exchange for a few pills for cultivation.
In addition, He Ping will go to find Yan Xiqin tomorrow and report her safety.
After completing this mission, He Ping no longer wanted to take on such a dangerous task, he even wanted to learn a talisman drawing or alchemy skill, so that he might be able to earn spirit stones more easily, and it would not be so dangerous.
It's not that He Ping has lost his indomitable heart on the way to practice, it's that his cultivation is too low, and he doesn't want to become a nameless tomb on the mountain of Qianhong Town.
The changes brought about by the surge in divine consciousness to He Ping's cultivation speed were earth-shaking.
Coupled with the help of the aura beads, He Ping now has several times more limit of compressing aura than before.
The only pity is that the aura in the aura bead is almost not enough to support He Ping to refine his divine sense, and now its role is at most to restore his aura while bringing He Ping some help in cultivation.
The recovery of the aura beads was extremely slow, and He Ping estimated that it would take at least a few years to fully recover.
The fire pit in the Fire Spirit Bead was almost exhausted, and He Ping had to find some opportunities to fill the fire pit, otherwise if he could find a treasure similar to the Spirit Spirit Bead again, he would not be able to use it.
He Ping needs a lot of things, and these are all things that need to be considered in the long run.
......
Early the next morning, He Ping rushed to the monk's workshop.
It seems that there will never be less people in the monastic workshop, and every day there are monks who die, but every day there are also people who become monks.
After touching the boulder in the center of the monk's workshop with his hand, He Ping submitted his information through the boulder.
The completion of the mission of the Monk's Workshop is determined by the publisher, but the time limit for this task of besieging and killing the defector has passed, and none of the people who took the mission have returned, only the publisher has returned.
Lin Guangyao fled back, but he didn't stay long, he only hurriedly explained the situation about this mission to the monk's workshop, and then returned to Sanqingmen.
Although he narrowly escaped in the hands of Jiang Heng, he was not unscathed.
When Jiang Heng attacked, the evil qi had already entered his body, and he had to hurry back to Sanqingmen to seek overhaul to help him expel the evil qi.
The Monk's Workshop learned that this evil cultivator had reached the late stage of Qi refining and attached great importance to it after the evil was transformed.
The evil cultivators in the late stage of Qi refining are almost equal to the invincible ones of the same rank, and the monks can only wait for the major cultivators to come back before dealing with them, and they can only hope that this evil cultivator will not cause too much evil during this time.
As for the task released by Lin Guangyao, although Lin Guangyao thought that there was a high probability that no one would survive except him, he did not take away the task reward, first, he did not lack this spirit stone at all, and second, if anyone survived, it could be regarded as a little compensation for the survivors.
This task was temporarily put on hold, and it was not until He Ping submitted the information that he had completed the task at this time, and this task was re-raised.
After submitting your information through the boulder, you need to go to the other side to receive the reward, and this step can be regarded as verifying whether the task has been completed, otherwise if a task like He Ping's is not done, the recipient will not do it, but just go out for a few laps and come back to receive the reward.
There are too many people in charge of verifying Qi refining and above cultivators, and each person has a small table with chairs.
"Which task did Daoyou complete?"
As soon as He Ping sat down, the mid-stage Qi refining cultivator opposite glanced at him, and asked like this, looking very skillful.
The monk was unrecognizable, with a goatee and slightly small eyes.
"Is it the next task to complete the siege and kill the defector monk?" He Ping replied with his fists clenched.
But he didn't know that his words had startled the monk's heart.
As a member of the monk's workshop, this monk naturally knew about this task related to evil cultivation, and he also knew that after the evil cultivation was turned into a cultivator, he would never let other monks go.
He was suspicious of this little Qi Refining Pre-Stage Cultivator for a while, and wondered if he had come to impersonate him to receive the reward.
Thinking about it like this, it made sense, so he said in a cold voice, "Daoist friends keep saying that they have completed the task of besieging and killing the defector monk, do you know that the defector monk is an evil cultivator in the late stage of Qi refining?"
"Fellow Daoist, it is absolutely not advisable to receive a reward like this!"
He Ping was stunned when he heard this, and could only say truthfully, "Senior, Zai Xia has indeed completed this task, but the monks who were with Zai Xia all died tragically at the hands of that evil cultivator, and only Zai Xia was lucky to survive." ”
"You're still stubborn!" said the monk, "and dare to ask who your name is?"
"Under He Ping. ”
The monk touched the jasper in front of him, and after a while, after looking at He Ping's appearance, he said, "You did take on this task, but you definitely didn't participate, so you can't give you a reward." ”
He Ping was very helpless, so he could only continue to explain, "Senior, it is indeed Qianhong Town that went with them, and the rest of the monks are now buried on the mountain of Qianhong Town. ”
"Then why are they dead? and you are unharmed?"
He Ping was silent for a while, he couldn't reveal that he had killed the evil cultivator, but he couldn't say that the evil cultivator let him go.
If he said that he had killed the evil cultivator, not to mention that others did not believe him, even if he believed it, he would definitely have some suspicions about him, and he now had many heavy treasures on his body, such as spiritual energy beads, fire spirit beads, and second-grade divine consciousness, which could not be shaken out.
Since he was a child, he knew that his wealth could not be exposed, otherwise it would be easy to lead to death.
After thinking about it for a while, He Ping said to the monk, "Senior, that evil cultivator is dead, so I can escape." ”
"Dead?" said the monk, looking incredulous.
"When I was about to die at his hands," He Ping paused and said, "suddenly a great cultivator flew from the sky, but I was knocked unconscious by the evil cultivator at that time, and I don't know what to follow, and when I woke up, he was gone, and the evil cultivator was dead." ”
The monk's face was cloudy, and he said after a while, "Why did you come back after seven days?"
"When I passed out, I was still outside Qianhong Town, and when I woke up, I was already a hundred miles away, so it took seven days to come back. ”
