"You have just arrived at the Black Carp Island, and you have no moral integrity at the beginning of your cultivation. You can't do such things as demon hunting, spiritual cultivation, array protection and crystal digging. You can only choose some simple tasks. I saw the whiteboard task recently issued by the sect, and three of them are suitable for you."
Xu Xing extended his first finger, He said: "First, feeding animals. We have many immortal birds and animals, which are useful for each other. There are also some on the Black Fish Island. The 'Spirit Beast Hall' in the sect takes charge of such things, so this task is also issued by the Spirit Beast Hall. All you need is to take care of the spirit animals on the Black Fish Island. You should feed them on time and wash them carefully, so it should be messy and hard, but it is inevitable."
Xu Xing extended his second finger, He said: "The second thing is to make pills. Actually, it's said to be making pills, but it's just because this is a task issued by the 'Dan Hall' of the sect. Now you have no experience or practice. Of course, it's impossible for you to really make pills. The tasks on the whiteboard are for you to fight, take charge of the heat of the pill furnace, and identify the medicinal materials to give to the senior brothers and sisters who make pills at any time, so the delay may be much longer than other tasks."
When the four teenagers heard this, they all frowned slightly. Their faces were not easy and good-looking. Although these tasks sounded simple, they were obviously not easy to do. Xu Xing looked at their expressions, smiled, and went on saying, "The third thing is to pick up shells. Every morning and evening, when the tide ebbs on the island, there are colorful shells on many beaches, which are the materials of some low-level arrays in the 'array hall', but they are mostly hidden in the deep mud of the beach, which is difficult to find. After this task, every 200 shells can be replaced with a spirit crystal."
He Xiaomei was stunned for a moment and said: "So many people can change a Lingjing?"
Xu Xing said with a smile: "Yes, the sect rules are like this. It is to train new disciples in difficult circumstances. Naturally, the tasks given will not be particularly easy. I have chosen these three things for you, and they are acceptable. As for more tasks on the green board, the red board and the yellow board in the future, the requirements are even more difficult, such as spiritual cultivation, demon hunting, as I said before, as well as runes, diving into the sea, crystal digging..."
Shen Shi raised his eyebrows and suddenly said, "Eh, we still have the task of writing runes here? Isn't that a side street?"
Xu Xing glanced at him, Avenue: "How to say, these five element techniques are really not comparable to the various mainstream Taoist magic powers that we will cultivate in the future, but this kind of magic has been around for thousands of years, and sometimes it is very useful. Especially for the practitioners in the refining realm, there are few magic powers that can be cultivated because of the Taoist practice, so they often practice one or two five element techniques at this time as a self-defense method. There is a special 'magic hall' in our school, which specializes in these five elements Although the practice of magic is not large, it will also issue tasks such as runes. After all, these runes are very popular with some friars, especially those who are not good at doing casual practice, and can earn a lot of Holy Crystal. "
"I see." Shen Shi suddenly realized, but then he heard Xu Xing smile, Avenue: "It's just that this way of writing runes is notoriously complicated and difficult. All kinds of runes of yin, yang and five elements are complicated and distorted. It's even more difficult to draw a rune array on the rune paper on this basis, let alone go through the last 'soul injection' difficulty, so that you can really make a rune. So even a rare and skilled rune master, it's also difficult to make a lot of runes. Disciples of all ages have done such duties There are also very few people who do business. "
Shen Shi nodded slowly. Xu Xing saw that he didn't ask again, so he stopped talking, Turning to Sun You, he said, "There are only a few tasks that I think are acceptable. You can think about them. Of course, you can also go to the whiteboard to have a closer look. Maybe there is another one for you. But you are new disciples after all, and the tasks you can do are basically on the whiteboard. The green, red, yellow and purple boards behind you are all difficult tasks. You may have to do it for a while."
Sun You nodded and said, "Thank you, Uncle."
Xu Xing smiled and said, "Well, that's it for the time being. You can walk around first and get familiar with it." At this point, he seemed to think of something, hesitated for a moment, and stopped.
Sun You's eyes were sharp. Seeing his uncle's appearance, he smiled: "What's the matter, uncle? Is there anything else?"
Xu Xing thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I thought of another thing just now, which is a little simpler, but... By the way, did you see those red clam demon families outside the Green Fish Fair on your way?"
All four nodded, and He Xiaomei made a gesture with her hand and said, "It looks strange. Two big clams grow on her like that."
Xu Xing said with a smile, "These Red Beng people have lived under our Lingxiao Clan for many years. After a long time, you will get used to it. What I just wanted to say is actually related to these Red Beng people, which is also a task, but it is not written on this whiteboard."
Sun You and others were all very curious. Sun You was the fastest. He said first: "What, there is such a task. What is it?"
Xu Xing smiled, Avenue: "In fact, it was the people of the Red Beng people who saw us asking new disciples to do all kinds of things. They have lived by the sea since ancient times. One of the favorite food in Pingyue is a kind of sea prawns called 'ghost noodles shrimp'. There are many in the waters around the Jinhong Mountain. But it is not difficult to catch such things as ghost noodles shrimp. When there is a fishing tide, you can throw a fish at random, and you can catch a lot of them, but this shrimp shell It is extremely hard to open with a knife and an axe. Only when you use a sharp blade to pierce through the crack of the lower abdomen shell can you just peel it and take out the tender shrimp meat. " Xu Xing made a gesture with his hand and said,
"Although the Red Beng people like to eat ghost face shrimp, their surname is very good and clean. They just want to eat the fresh and tender ghost face shrimp meat. When they peel the shrimp shell, they will make their whole body bloody and dirty. Therefore, they have always been regarded as a great hardship by the Red Beng people. After seeing that we have issued various tasks to the new disciples, they also have a similar pattern, saying that as long as someone helps them peel the shrimp, they will also reward Lingjing."
"Well..." Sun You and others realized that Shen Shi was very careful and thought of another thing quickly, saying, "Elder Martial Brother Xu, uh... what should I call it..."
Xu Xing smiled and waved his hand. "I'm a little older than you," he said. "Call me Uncle Xu when you meet."
Shen Shi nodded and said: "Uncle Xu, it's not said that demon families like the Red Beng people don't use Lingjing at all. How can they get Lingjing to pay us?"
Xu Xingdao: "Well, this is the case. Our Jinhong Mountain is the first Holy vein in the southeast. It is a well-known thing that the Holy Spirit naturally gathers together the heaven and the earth. Every day, it gathers many Holy Crystals. This Holy vein is buried deep in the Holy Mountain, but there are still very fine veins scattered around the end of the week. Some of them go deep into the sea floor outside the islands. The people of Hongbeng have an excellent surname, Shui, and can go deep into the sea floor without any magic weapons. So Ping From time to time, a small amount of Holy Crystal can be found from the sea floor. Although they are useless, since they know that our Terran people regard it as a treasure, they naturally collect it for trading with us. "
Jiang Hongguang hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Xu, how many ghost faced shrimps will be killed, and only the red mussels will pay us?"
Xu Xing replied, "One hundred ghost faced shrimps, one Lingjing." As he spoke, he stretched out his fourth finger and smiled, "So this is the fourth thing I told you about, peeling shrimp."
※※※
After leaving Xu Xing's side, the four people stood in the White Crane Hall for discussion. The four tasks that Xu Xing had just mentioned did not sound difficult. They could do them even if they didn't have moral integrity. However, after careful consideration, they did all the dirty work. Jiang Hongguang and Shen Shi were OK, but Sun You and He Xiaomei both had excellent family backgrounds. They didn't want to do it because they had suffered so much in Pingyue.
After discussing for a while, they decided to come to the whiteboard together to see if there were other more suitable tasks.
At this time, there were many teenagers standing under the white board. Obviously, under the Lingxiao Sect's rule that everyone was forbidden to bring Lingjing into the school by themselves, the top priority of these new disciples became to earn Lingjing for cultivation. After all, except for the only Lingjing given at the beginning, Lingxiao Sect seemed to make it clear that everyone needed to earn Lingjing.
The four people stood in front of the whiteboard and looked carefully for a while. They saw that there were countless square white papers on the whiteboard, which were stacked one after another. There were many strange tasks. But if you look here and there, it seems that no matter how difficult or tired it is or how much you pay, it is almost the same as those things Xu Xing said before. It is obviously more difficult to do than what he said.
Shen Shi looked at it for a while, and then thought of what Xu Xinggang said about the Talisman. He had been drawing runes for many years since he was a child, but he did not think that they could still be used in Lingxiao Sect. He could not bear it with his heart. After watching for a while, he did not find a more suitable task, and then he noticed whether there was a task related to runes on the whiteboard.
But he looked here for a long time and almost searched the whole whiteboard, but he didn't even find a word of the Talisman. Shen Shi frowned and said that Xu Xing was unlikely to cheat himself. After a moment's thinking, his heart suddenly moved and he looked around. No one noticed him. Several friends he had just met, Sun You, He Xiaomei, Jiang Hongguang and others, were also looking carefully at the whiteboard at the other end. He then walked around the whiteboard quietly and skillfully, but walked behind the whiteboard.
After the white board, there is a large wooden board with green color. According to Xu Xinggang, it should be called the green board. Like the situation on the white board, there are also many notes posted on the green board. However, the Lingxiao Sect disciples in front of the green board have much less money than the white board. Many of them are older disciples of the last round of five years.
Several of them noticed that Shen Shi came to the green board and cast some strange glances. Later, though, they probably thought that Shen Shi was just one of those new disciples who was curious, so they came to see a new one. So they didn't care too much. One by one, they turned around and looked intently at the note on the board.
Shen Shi was relieved and found the green board. This time, it was unexpectedly smooth. When he saw the third piece of white paper on the green board, he found that this was exactly a task issued by the Academy, and the content was to draw a special rune array on the rune paper.
Making rune paper is not to make runes, which is exactly what Shen Shi wants. He has no way to make runes at the moment, and the last pass of "soul injection" will not pass. But if he just draws a rune array, Shen Shi has some confidence with his connection that he did not fix it day and night in the past seven years.
He looked down at the happy place, but suddenly his eyebrows were wrinkled, and a look of amazement swept across his face. There were four characters clearly written below the note:
Materials shall be prepared by themselves.
