Chapter 80: Mission
Chapter 80 Mission
Sitting at the top of the hall, he recalled that after the conflict between himself and Gu Xi, he arrived at the Zhige Cave and met Uncle Feng, and it was also this Uncle Feng who gave him a volume of "Shadow Steps" exercises after he defeated Gu Xi, and left a message, saying that one day he would fulfill a wish for him to repay the gift of this exercise.
Now that many years have passed, Dugu Bo still thinks that the other party has long forgotten about this matter, and he never thought that he should always come, but this is okay, the account between himself and this Uncle Feng is also clear, and a big stone in his heart can be put down from now on.
Thinking like this, Dugu Bo became curious, what did this Uncle Feng have to do with his disciple of the outer peak. So, he put the jade slip in his hand on his door, and began to carefully examine the contents inside.
After a meal, Dugu Bo opened his eyes with a complicated expression, and put the turquoise jade slip on the table of the Eight Immortals on the side.
The matter mentioned in this jade slip is also very brief, it is that the low-level disciples of Yuyu City, the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom, where the Min family is stationed, are themselves missing when they investigate the disappearance of the descendants of the Feng family.
This Uncle Feng wants to let himself go to the task hall of the Government Affairs Pavilion to investigate the disappearance of this disciple, and let himself secretly investigate who is going to be unfavorable to the Feng family, and help this uncle's descendants get rid of this unfavorable factor.
As soon as this matter is over, then he and Uncle Feng can be regarded as two clear.
But Dugu Bo felt that this incident revealed something strange, a low-level disciple disappeared for no reason, so the crisis faced by the descendants of the Feng family was probably worse than he imagined.
And this matter also has risks that I am afraid I can't predict, of course, if there is no risk, this Uncle Feng will naturally not find him.
That Senior Brother Cheng came to test himself just now, and I'm afraid that Uncle Feng wanted to know if he had this strength at the moment, so he could rest assured that I would do something for him.
Secretly thinking about it for a while, although Dugu Bo felt helpless, but since he was short of people, he was obviously in trouble by himself. So he hurriedly walked out of the hall of the cave mansion, opened the ban on the Silent Xuan Valley, controlled the fairy sword, and flew in the direction of Guanxia Peak.
In terms of Dugu Bo's current understanding, there are dozens of large and small countries distributed on the islands of Luoyun Continent, of course, the so-called "big" and "small" here are also relatively speaking, even the smallest country here is probably larger than the total area occupied by one earth.
These mortal realms on Luoyun Island seem to have nothing to do with the immortal cultivation realm, but they are closely monitored by various large and small immortal cultivation families and sects.
These families and sects will naturally abide by the ancient precepts and will not affect the rights of the mortal world, and the dynasty will change, but although the immortal cultivators who appear in many mortal families have parted ways with their own bloodline, they are also more or less shaded because of their worries.
Of course, these mortal families themselves did not know that they were under the shadow of the immortal cultivators from their own families, so that they could step by step towards the wealth and glory of the world.
If there are no immortal cultivators in these families, then I am afraid that this kind of wealth and glory will continue for several generations, and if there are no more immortal cultivators, then I am afraid that they will slowly weaken.
In the mortal realm of the country where some of the big immortal cultivation families are located, the princes and nobles are often controlled by the descendants of the bloodline of the immortal cultivation family.
And these immortal cultivation families will also arrange their own eyeliner and stay there for a long time in the realm of their own immortal cultivation realm or in parts of the realm of the mortal realm.
Of course, the division of regions between the various forces in the Immortal Cultivation Realm does not completely coincide with the division of the regions of the various kingdoms in the Mortal Realm; this is a problem of a long and complex historical formation mechanism.
And these family garrisons have a few basic tasks.
The first task is to protect the descendants of the Immortal Cultivator Family in the region, investigate all kinds of unfavorable factors that endanger the descendants of the Immortal Cultivator Family or other forces and elders attached to the Immortal Cultivation Family, and eliminate these unfavorable factors without causing too much turmoil in the world.
The second task is to discover some mortals with immortal seeds in the region, and extradite them to become immortal cultivators, and transport them to the immortal cultivation family to maintain the scale and interests of the immortal cultivation family itself.
The third task: If you find that there are immortal cultivators from other immortal cultivation families or sects and some evil cultivators making trouble in the mortal territory of your own lineage, then you will also take action, deal with what you can handle, and if you can't deal with it, you must quickly report it to the upper echelons of your own family and sect for processing.
Of course, in addition to this, there are many things that will endanger the interests of the Immortal Cultivation Family.
These tasks seem to be a lot of work, but in fact, not that many things can happen in a few years, so most of the resident disciples are very idle, and most of the time they are cultivating on their own.
And these immortal cultivators are often stationed in the mortal realm of the place as martial arts masters, with a huge martial arts force and eyeline to monitor all the affairs of the region, many things are busy with the people below, and the stationed disciples only need to pay attention to some things that the people below can't handle and can't understand.
In the eyes of these martial arts heroes in the mortal realm, there are countless very mysterious martial arts inheritance sects in the world, and no one can find these mysterious sects, but they often regularly send some peerless masters to lead them.
But these peerless masters spend most of their time in retreat, and it doesn't affect their daily decisions, so they don't feel oppressed, but instead help them solve these problems when they encounter things they can't handle.
Therefore, although they feel helpless, on the whole, they feel that the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages, so they accept this reality.
And similar to this time, the disappearance of the low-level disciples of the Min family stationed in the Great Qi Kingdom is even more rare, so it will naturally attract some attention from the upper echelons of the Min family; of course, the Great Qi Kingdom is also the place where the descendants of the Feng Shi Shuben family of the upper echelons of the Min family are located, and he is afraid that he is far more concerned about this matter than others.
But this kind of worry is not as urgent as imagined, especially this worry will gradually fade into nothing as time goes by, and the relationship between the descendants of the family and oneself becomes more and more distant;
This state of mind that is far away from the world and unstained is itself one of the secondary effects produced by the cultivation of immortal cultivators.
For example, the cultivation of Juding Jue is mainly based on pranayama, body and mind, and the word "mindfulness" means not to be tainted by the world, not to be tired of the world, so that one's body and mind can reach a better order, close to the natural avenue, in order to seek longevity.
On the path of cultivation, pranayama and body adjustment are the easiest to do, and the most difficult thing is to adjust the mind; then Gu Xi obviously did not achieve the latter, so above the path of cultivation, although it is the qualification of the Tongding Dharma Body, the speed of cultivation growth is stagnant and not advancing, which is also the cause and effect of the body order not being able to reach a very high level.
This is one of the root causes of his master's persuasion and confinement.
It is also because the more immortal cultivators arrive, the more they will become less concerned about things outside the body, and this state of mind that regards all things as dogs is naturally not something that can be achieved in a day or two; of course, once they embark on the road of cultivating immortals, they are also destined to embark on a lonely road.
Therefore, this Uncle Feng did not go in person, but only sent Dugu Bo to solve the matter.
If it is finally confirmed that this matter will affect the interests of the Min family and the interests of Uncle Feng himself, I am afraid that these upper echelons and this Uncle Feng will come out in person.
There is a saying in Taoism that heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as dogs, and sages are unkind and regard people as dogs.
In the world of cultivating immortals, the mentality of those who are high in cultivation and those who are low in cultivation regard those who are low in cultivation as dogs, and the mentality of those who are low in cultivation as dogs is also quite obvious. This is also the closer to the avenue, the more there is no difference between good and bad, sad and joyful, harmonious as one, from there is nothing.
Dugu Bo is only a low-level disciple at the moment, so he still needs to engage in family chores, while those inner peak disciples and elders not only have no sundries, but also have much richer immortal cultivation resources than outer peak disciples.
That's the difference.
The government affairs pavilion is located to the east of the north peak of Guanxia Peak, but it is not very far; if Dugu Bo came from the Luoyou Valley where he lived in the past, which is east of the south peak of Qianlong Peak, the distance will be much shorter; but at present, the Lonely Xuan Valley where he is located is located near the top of the west peak of Qianlong Peak, so the distance to the government affairs pavilion is many times greater.
However, this was not even half an hour for his new flying spirit weapon's escape technique.
Since the last time he went to the family task hall on the third floor of the Government Affairs Pavilion to receive the task of chasing and killing Xuan Jiuyin, Dugu Bo has not been here for several years.
When I came to the mission hall, it was still the usual place, only the twenty or thirty disciples who were ridiculed were here, and after seeing the task on the huge round jade pillar in the middle.
Dugu Bo quickly set his sights on the tenth task.
This task is a three-year business trip to Yucheng of the Great Qi Kingdom, and in the reward of the task, the Min family contributed 30,000 points and 10,000 spirit stones.
Seeing this number, Dugu Bo's right ear jumped slightly, this business trip was basically a chore, those places had thin spiritual energy, and there were dangers, which was basically equivalent to wasting three years of precious cultivation time.
In the past, the contribution points of such tasks were quite high, and the spirit stones ranged from 30,000 to 40,000 to make up for the wasted cultivation time of low-level disciples.
But this time, the reward of spirit stones was only 10,000, which naturally made Dugu Bo dumbfounded.
It seems that the value of his "Shadow Step" is far higher than the "Nine Turning Techniques of the Dragon" that he cultivated at the beginning. No wonder the old ghost was not afraid that this task would be led by other disciples, among whom he didn't know how many spirit stones he had eaten by himself.
