Chapter 23: Competence and Responsibility
The advantage of becoming an outer disciple is that you can receive the pills within the quota for cultivation every month, and you don't have to work like a miscellaneous disciple, and there doesn't seem to be any bigger difference in the rest. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, outer disciples are also obliged.
You need to complete different tasks and accumulate contributions from your teachers. The contribution of the master can be exchanged for cash, and can also be exchanged for other pills and magic weapons, and if the contribution of the master is zero, then even the monthly quota will not be issued.
Seven days after becoming an outer disciple, the first day of rest.
Qi Guancheng couldn't bear it anymore and came to the courtyard where Luo Jiangshang lived with Huo Jun.
The two of them had already eaten up their one-month quota, and they realized the benefits of the elixir-assisted cultivation, and they couldn't wait to carry out the master's mission and obtain the master's contribution in exchange for the required pill.
"Okay then, I'll go with you to see it. ”
The effectiveness of the Qilin Hall in the outer gate is similar to the Cloud Chasing Tower on the periphery of the sect, and all matters related to the outer gate can be done here. This is the second time Luo Jiangshang has come here, and the three of them went straight to the handover point of the task. There are two large blackboards in front of him, one is a real-time updated task, half of which are personal tasks issued by inner disciples or elders, and the other is a public task issued by the Hundred Immortals.
The income from personal tasks is very high, and in addition to the contribution of the teacher, there are other treasures. But it was relatively difficult, and it was directly skipped by the trio.
Public tasks are much more basic, and the reward given is only one contribution from the teacher. However, there are a lot of disciples competing with each other, just because most of them are not highly cultivated, and the public task is generally to find materials and so on, there is no danger, and they are more than enough to do these simple tasks. Personal missions are usually carried out in certain dangerous places, and the risk factor is very high, and only the cultivation of the foundation building period and above will be accepted.
Qi Guancheng valued a public task and discussed it with the two.
However, a disciple next to him, with a big shoulder and a round waist, forced Qi Guancheng to squeeze away, and turned his head to glare at him: "Little ghost, don't get in the way!"
Because the other party's cultivation is higher, he is already a monk in the foundation building period, and he is a kind person, so he doesn't care about anything. However, when the three of them went to the window to accept the task, the disciple in charge said that the task had been assigned, and at the same time pointed to the big-shouldered and round-waisted foundation building monk, and asked the three silently, "Have you offended him?"
"He's Senior Brother Xi Tie......"
Luo Jiangshang frowned, what he hated most in his life was to oppress people with power.
Turning his head to look at Xi Tie, who knew that Xi Tie also had a provocative look. Luo Jiangshang's heart was on fire, and his hands reached into his pockets, but he was actually secretly casting his handprints.
Although it does not have the upper hand in the head-on confrontation, it is very easy to use for the Yin people.
Luo Jiangshang repeated the old trick, and reused the set used on Fu Gaojie on Xi Tie, so that he could taste the taste of bad luck.
After the operation, I saw Xi Tie suddenly fall and eat. The place where he fell happened to be dug a pit, and he was about to plant flowers and plants, when the dirt and filth were covered in mud and filth, and he looked very embarrassed.
", who dug a hole here?"
Xi Tie roared viciously, but unfortunately no one wanted to pay attention to him.
Perhaps he didn't want to continue to lose face, Xi Tie glanced at all the disciples, and immediately used Tengyun to leave the place of right and wrong.
"Hahaha, look at his face, the interpersonal relationship must be bad. ”
Huo Jun laughed immediately, and four or five people laughed together, and the disciple in charge who distributed the task laughed the most relieved: "Hmph, that Xi Tie, relying on the cultivation of the foundation building period, and the relative of the sect elders, is simply lawless in the outer gate." ”
Qi Guancheng saw the clue in it, and looked at Luo Jiangshang with an inquiring look.
"Was discovered by you?" Luo Jiangshang shook his head with a smile, "I stood up for a small trick, I have played tricks on Fu Gaojie before, this little trick is only effective for people whose cultivation is lower than his own, it is estimated that the mana on Xi Tie's body will soon be invalid, and his cultivation is much higher than mine." ”
Now, Luo Jiangshang's superficial cultivation is only in the middle layer of the Qi refining period, which is a big difference from the low level of Xi Tie's foundation building stage, which is very far away.
Qi Guancheng nodded thoughtfully, feeling that this little trick was very useful.
If in the battle, you suddenly give your opponent this blow, unknowingly, and unlucky for a while, then you can already be invincible.
"Senior Brother Luo, when will you hand it over to me?"
Luo Jiangshang finally agreed to teach him this left-way technique, but reminded him that he must not use it blatantly: "This is the left-way technique, which is despised by the righteous path, if the division commander knows, maybe he will be driven out of the division." ”
Luo Jiangshang said seriously, and Huo Jun, who listened, shook his head again and again.
In the end, the three of them still took over the public mission, and each prepared himself, planning to leave early tomorrow morning.
This is a task of collecting medicinal herbs, some pills can use artificially grown herbs, and some pills can only use naturally grown herbs, hence this task of collecting herbs. This is also a standing public task of the Hundred Immortals Sect, almost every day a certain amount of medicinal materials need to be quantified, and the task will be issued for the outer disciples to complete.
The medicinal herb that the three of them want to collect, called amber green, is a basic medicinal material that is in great demand, and many pills use it to balance and neutralize medicinal properties. At the same time, it is also one of the most widely distributed medicinal materials in the mountains around Baixianmen. Therefore, this quest is not dangerous, and it is one of the more sought-after quests for the outer door.
On the second day, before dawn, Luo Jiangshang, Qi Guancheng and Huo Jun were already carrying their medicine baskets on their backs, passing through the periphery where the miscellaneous disciples were and leaving the Hundred Immortal Gate.
When they came out of the mountain, they didn't walk the path of Tianyuan, just because Tianyuan was too dangerous, and usually only when new disciples entered, they would pass through Tianyuan, so that new disciples could feel the magic of nature. They went around the cliffs of the Heavenly Abyss and went straight out of the outer gate from the bottom of the valley, and they could quickly reach the outer edge of the sect.
The three of them stopped and looked at the smoke rising from the cooking, it was the miscellaneous disciples who had already gotten up early and were cooking on the fire.
A few days ago, Qi Guancheng and Huo Jun were still here getting up early and begging for a living, just to be able to enter the outer gate of the Hundred Immortals Gate with a little hope. Now, a few days later, both of them have become the 'outer brothers' in the mouths of the miscellaneous disciples, but they didn't expect that they would also have to get up early to do the task, and they would face greater danger.
"Alas, the world is impermanent, in fact, those who can't build a foundation all their lives are also very good, they can always live under the protection of the sect, and we have become disciples of the outer sect, so the burden of protecting the junior brothers and sisters is also pressed on us. ”
Who's to say it isn't?
With great power comes great responsibility.
The miscellaneous disciples couldn't cultivate, so they exchanged their labor for living space. The outer disciples' combat effectiveness is still insufficient, and they can only complete some tasks to support the core of those sects in the inner sect. The inner disciples are the ones who really carry the banner of the sect.
sighed for a while, and the three of them concentrated on the task.
The Great Cultivation of Heaven and Earth is the largest, and completing tasks to get rewards, whether it is exchanging money or finished pills or treasures, will be of great help to cultivation.
According to the topographic map, the three of them avoided the boundaries that were surrounded by red circles and marked with dangers, perhaps with powerful monsters living in them, or perhaps with other dangers. There is no more detailed explanation on the map, this is just something that Luo Jiangshang exchanged for a few Qingxin Pills, which is not good material.
Amber green only takes a year to grow, and it can adapt to any kind of growing environment, and it will exist almost everywhere in the mountains. However, the unrestrained collection of the disciples of the Hundred Immortal Sect has caused this kind of medicinal herb that can be seen everywhere to become rare now.
In the polder city of Yuzhu City, ten complete amber greens are worth one jade coin.
"In my opinion, it's better to take the amber green to Yuzhu City to sell it, ten medicinal herbs will give us ninety contribution points, and one hundred contribution points will be exchanged for a jade coin...... A thousand contribution points can be exchanged for an immortal jade, and how many amber greens do you need to exchange for immortal jade......"
Huo Jun's complaints, Luo Jiangshang only couldn't hear them.
"In the polder market, it takes ten complete amber greens to sell a jade coin, and in the sect, as long as we hand in the part with medicinal value, even if we complete the task," Qi Guancheng smiled and plucked an amber green so that Huo Jun could see it clearly, "You see, the medicinal materials we picked are only the stems and leaves of amber green, as for the root system of this plant is very developed, without professional tools, we can't collect complete medicinal materials." ”
Huo Jun saw that the roots of the plant were indeed still on the ground. After using mana to investigate, he also knew that Qi Guancheng was not lying, and the root system of Amber Qing reached at least ten zhang underground. No wonder it can be so tenacious and grow in any environment.
"If you want to dig up a complete plant, it's simple, I have a spell to escape the ground, which belongs to the left way, according to our cultivation, you can also go down to more than ten or twenty zhang underground, just dig its root system, and this position will not continue to grow in the next year, isn't it worth the loss?"
Luo Jiangshang was reasonable, and he also dispelled Huo Jun's greed.
The three of them looked for a conversation all the way, and the atmosphere was quite happy.
However, a loud roar came from the depths of the forest, like a tiger's roar, and like an angry roar, and a strong wind blew up the fallen leaves, and after a while, it was like a tornado, blowing the three of them staggering.
Luo Jiangshang hurriedly grabbed the two companions, and then carefully sensed the abnormality in the deep forest.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, you know it's going to be worse when you look at it.
A big eye-catching insect pounced on a disciple viciously, it was Luo Jiangshang's old acquaintance, Li Yuanlong.
There are still a few vitality around Li Yuanlong, presumably this group of people want to hunt demon beasts and catch Li Yuanlong as bait.
"Let's go to the front and see, what is it, there is such a big pomp and circumstance just by listening to the sound?"
Luo Jiangshang was about to find an excuse to go and take a look, Huo Jun's curiosity was first impatient, and the three of them also walked towards the deep forest with difficulty.
