Chapter 142: Manager Ma's Thoughts (I)

Led by Suna, the two soon came to the gate of the deacon's hall on the side of the Cardinal's Council.

At this time, the deacon's hall was busy, especially near the "Shadow Crystal", there were several circles of people inside and out. Every disciple widened his eyes and carefully observed each refreshed task, lest one accidentally slow down the others. In addition, on the left side of the area where the "Developing Crystal" is located, there are several deacon disciples at a long jade table who are also very busy. In front of them, dozens of disciples were already lined up, and these disciples who had completed their tasks were waiting to receive their respective rewards.

The busy scene in the deacon's hall as usual made Lin Quan frown secretly. Judging from the number of people excluded so far, it will take at least more than an hour for your turn. He himself was used to it, but he was embarrassed to think that even Suna would have to wait so long for his mission.

"Hehe, Brother Lin Quan, don't worry. Come with me, you don't have to wait in line here. Come, follow me into the inner sanctum. The empathetic Suna seemed to see Lin Quan's concern, but she didn't care at all. After secretly passing on a word to Lin Quan, he walked directly to the back of the hall bypassing the deacon disciples.

Lin Quan was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, he hurried a few steps and swaggered behind Suna with a calm face. When he passed by the deacon disciples, he deliberately paid attention to see how Suna responded to the inquiries of these part-time "janitors". However, what surprised him was that Suna didn't say anything at all, just shook the sect jade talisman in her hand and made a strange gesture without a trace, and then the two of them were directly unimpeded.

After passing the "gatekeeper" level, they walked through the deacon's hall for a while, passed through several courtyards, and finally stopped in front of a delicate temple gate, Suna pointed to the four big golden characters of "deacon's inner hall" above the main hall and said with a smile: "Brother Lin Quan, we have arrived." ”

"Alas, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Brother Fool wouldn't have dared to imagine that the authority of the original first-grade disciple was so great! Not only could he enter and exit at will, but he could also bring a second-grade disciple inside. Looking at the little girl's smiling face as if inviting merit, Lin Quan couldn't help but sigh.

Although Suna only lit up her 'sect jade talisman' during the whole process, Lin Quan, who had excellent spiritual knowledge, knew that things were not so simple. Even if you exclude a few "gatekeepers" in the outer hall who are in the open, you will encounter at least three hidden cards along the way, secretly monitoring the two of you. Each of these three secret cards was composed of two monks with at least eleven levels of cultivation, and as for whether there were other people with higher cultivation levels hiding in the shadows, Lin Quan had no way of knowing.

Just a deacon hall that was not too important had such a strong garrison, and this discovery also shocked Lin Quan again, and secretly sighed that the Purple Void Sect was worthy of being one of the four major sects of the Great Zheng Kingdom.

"This ...... It's just so-so. Oh, Brother Lin Quan, don't be emotional, let's hurry up and choose the task. Suna grimaced a slightly mischievous face. She was delicate, and she didn't want to let these topics about the level of authority affect her relationship with Lin Quan.

"Okay, well, the foolish brother listens to Cortana's arrangement. Lin Quan smiled and walked into the hall with Suna.

It seemed that the inner hall was significantly smaller than the outer hall, and at a glance, there were only three deacon disciples in the hall sorting out the piles of materials in front of their respective desks. The arrival of Suna and Lin Quan did not cause them the slightest surprise, the people who were able to come all the way to the inner hall unhindered were at least first-class disciples, and the purpose of these heavenly pride was also to go to the sect mission, how could these people who had been in the inner hall all year round go to the trouble.

"Uncle Ma, disciple Suna asks to see. ”

Familiar with the way, Suna made it all the way to the deepest part of the inner sanctum, and did not stop until she was in front of a gate shrouded in a faint forbidden power. Then Suna called out in a coquettish voice, and at the same time bowed respectfully.

"Disciple Lin Quan paid a visit to Uncle Ma. Seeing this, Lin Quan didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly bowed.

"Suna, Lin Quan, they really found the old man here as Meng Lao Si said...... Hey, interesting, that's interesting. Ma Zhiyuan was very comfortable at this time, half-lying on a brocade couch, holding a good jade pot in his left hand, and constantly throwing a precious thousand miles of talisman in his right hand. He squinted his eyes slightly, silently, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, the old man's eyes suddenly flashed, and he straightened his waist and sat up straight. I saw him glance at a certain volume of classics in front of the case again before he made up his mind and muttered to himself: "Okay, the left and right are just an ordinary B-level disciple with no background." Now that you only need a little means, you can not only get the favor of the Meng family, but also befriend the genius of Leng Wanli, why not?"

............

"It turned out to be Cortana and Master Lin's nephew, come in. After quickly making up his mind, Ma Zhi took a big sip of spiritual wine in a happy mood, and with a wave of his right hand, the prohibition that shrouded the door had already disappeared. Then he waved his right hand again, and the special Thousand Miles Talisman disappeared at the same time.

"Xiao Na (disciple Lin Quan) has seen Uncle Ma. Uncle Wan'an. ”

"Hehe, the two teachers and nephews don't have to be polite. Ma Zhiyuan put down the wine jug, closed the book in front of him very casually, and said with a slight smile: "Xiao Na, since you can personally bring this Lin Shi nephew here, the old man will not go around in circles." Tell me, what kind of sect quest do you want to receive from the old man this time?"

"Uncle Ma. We just want to pick a task with more contribution value, preferably safer. Suna was unceremonious, and immediately said what Lin Quan had said.

"You want to be well-paid and safe, hehe, you little girl has a lot to do!" Ma Zhiyuan glared at Suna angrily, and the latter stuck out his tongue and grimaced.

Ma Zhiyuan shook his head, then moved his gaze to Lin Quan and said: "The tasks with more contribution points are the first long-term tasks, but the relatively safe long-term tasks have always been very boring and cumbersome, I wonder if there is anything else to add to Senior Lin's nephew?"

"It's Uncle Shi. The disciple asked himself if he still had a little experience in spiritual planting techniques. He once successfully completed the 'Baizhi Garden' task issued by Uncle Qin alone. Therefore, the disciple most wanted to find a task related to the elixir garden or the cultivation of spiritual grass. It doesn't matter how long the task is, no matter how boring it is. Lin Quan arched his hand and calmly said his plan.

"As far as the old man knows, Senior Sister Qin's 'Baizhi Garden' has planted a lot of hundreds of precious spirit grasses, among which there are dozens of kinds of fine products that are rare to see in the outside world, and it is not easy to take care of them. Well...... It seems that Master Lin's nephew is indeed very talented in spiritual planting techniques. Ma Zhiyuan glanced at Lin Quan with a little surprise, then narrowed his eyes and said with a little regret: "It's a pity that the old man doesn't have a long-term task for spirit plants here." I wonder if Master Lin has any other specialties?"

"This, the disciple once taught himself some superficial alchemy techniques, and often did some work on refining refining materials on weekdays. It would be fine if there was a similar task, but it would be even better if there was a one-person retreat room. Lin Quan took two steps forward as he spoke, and quietly took out a jade box that had been prepared long ago from his long sleeve and gently pushed it in front of Ma Zhiyuan.
