The next day, Zhang Mu and the other two got up and had something to eat, and then began to practice basic swordsmanship without delaying for a moment. After all, only the lowest level is the most important.
I saw Zhang Mu's luck on his arm, he let out a light drink, and slashed forward with the Black Iron Sword in his hand. With a wave of his hand, the blade of the sword drooped to draw a beautiful arc.
Sheathing his sword, Zhang Mu took a deep breath, with a satisfied smile on his lips.
"Muzi, why are you progressing so fast?" Liu Li walked slowly from the side.
"Oh, good luck." If not, could it be that he said he practiced all night?
"Then I'm so jealous."
Zhang Mu wiped his nose and raised his eyebrows and said: "Liu Li, I always feel a little calmer. Given Liu Bao's personality, he won't let me go easily. But now that he hasn't come, there is a problem.
"
Liu Li also understood and said with a smile: "Since you don't know clearly, then go out and find out, otherwise you won't be able to calm down while practicing."
"Well, I'll go take a look."
"Let's go together." Then he folded the folding fan and turned around and said, "Sun Xiao, Xiao Han, you practice first, while Muzi and I go out to take a look."
Then, the two of them walked out of the practice space shoulder to shoulder and walked towards a place in the valley.
Qingfeng Valley is not a small place, and Zhang Mu's place happens to be a place with the rarest spiritual energy. However, he has not officially cultivated immortality yet, so it is not very useful.
Following the path, the two of them came to Liu Bao's wooden house. When they saw that it didn't look like there was anyone inside, they looked at each other and walked towards the wooden house.
When he came to the door, he stretched out his hand and pushed it open gently. Seeing that there was no one inside, Zhang Mu couldn't help but let out a big sigh of relief.
"Huh~ Don't worry, they're not here."
Liu Lidao: "Then where did they go?"
Zhang Mu grinned and said, "Whatever, just don't bother me." The two of them smiled and walked in the direction they came from.
When they reached a fork in the road, they saw several disciples in the training stage walking out chatting and laughing.
"It's a blessing this time. Let's go and have a look. It's best to get a dual cultivator to come back. That would be really great."
"It's not that easy. But speaking of which, this sect's beauty pageant is also a major festival in Mobei City. In addition to us here, there are probably female nuns from outside."
"It's really unfair. They can find a backer just by being pretty, and we have to suffer."
"Oh, this is the difference between men and women. They can enter the big sect with their beauty, but we can only climb at the bottom, and we don't know when we will be finished."
...
After listening to their words, Zhang Mu felt confident. It seemed that if Liu Bao was not here, he would be watching the beauty pageant.
"Hey, Liu Li, this is a good time."
Liu Li asked in confusion: "What's a good time?"
"Now that they have all gone down the mountain to look at the beauties, we just took this opportunity to get the mission. This way we can also earn some gold leaves, but we can't always use Xiao Han's."
"Yes, that's right, let's go." After saying that, the two of them walked quickly towards the place where they received the mission.
This quest does not happen every time. Generally, after good quests appear, they are taken away by high-level disciples. And even slightly similar ones are also snatched away.
The remaining tasks are nothing more than helping people in the world, and in the end they only get three or four gold leaves. This is the most, and any less is half a gold leaf, or even a portion of gold powder.
But this can be regarded as an income, which is better than having nothing to do.
Not long after, the two came to a house.
At first glance, I think it's quite big inside, and the furnishings are quite sparse. That's where tasks are distributed. There are a lot of papers, and it's obvious that the tasks recorded on them are tasks.
"Let's go over and take a look. I hope there are good tasks so that we can make a fortune."
When he came to the counter, Zhang Mu faced a disciple and said, "Senior brother, let's receive the mission."
The man said without raising his head: "Choose for yourself." After saying that, he lay on the counter with a very unhappy expression.
Zhang Mu has no time to care what he does. There are really not many people here now, and if there are more, they can't exceed a dozen. Obviously, most of them go out to see the female cultivators, which is a good time to select tasks.
In the past, there would have been a lot of people here, and trying to squeeze in every day would be a common thing.
Zhang Mu and Liu Li searched separately. They picked up a piece of paper at random and saw the words "Sanliu Village, help find a girl, and you will be rewarded with gold powder."
Seeing this, Zhang Mu grinned and put it down, and walked away. It wasn't that he had no sympathy, it was just that he couldn't save himself now, and he didn't have time to do such idle things.
Because he knows that if he wants to gain the respect of others, he must have enough strength. Only in this way will others not mess with you, and he will also have the strength to save others.
Zhang Mu glanced aside and picked up a "Yellow Maple Forest, the wolf demon is causing trouble. Kill one of the wolf demons and the reward will be thirty gold leaves." When he saw this, he couldn't help but smile.
He held the paper casually in his hand, calmed down the excitement in his heart, looked around and saw that no one was looking, and then pretended to be casual and walked up to Liu Li.
Zhang Mu poked Liu Li with his hand and held up the task paper to show him.
Liu Li was so smart. Seeing Zhang Mu like this, he already guessed that this task was unusual, so he pretended to be impatient.
When I saw the amount of gold leaves on it, my heart trembled, and my eyes showed unstoppable joy, but there was no obvious change on my face.
Liu Li whispered: "Muzi, I think this is it."
"Well, that's what I think too." After saying that, the two of them nodded and walked towards the senior brother who handed out the mission.
"Brother, we have made our choice." He said and handed over the task paper.
The man chirped after hearing this, took it casually, glanced at it, raised his eyebrows and said: "Ten gold leaves are more valuable than Youyi, but not Youyi. When the time comes, someone else takes it away, and I don't care."
Zhang Mu suddenly felt worried. Isn't this a joke? He had nothing but bruises on his body, and he asked for ten gold leaves. Isn't this an international joke?
Before Zhang Mu could speak, Liu Li said quickly: "We want the only one." Seeing Zhang Mu looking at him, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Xiao Han's, keep it with me when you go out. Isn't this useful?
Otherwise, you have to go back."
"Ah That's good."
Afterwards, the two of them took a piece of paper that was stamped by the character's disciple, and each had a copy, so that they would not be afraid of him cheating.
In this sect, there are usually no surprises when assigning tasks, that is, if the tasks are completed, they will not redeem them for themselves.
Now if you encounter this kind of thing, you can take the assignment paper and file a complaint. It will be accurate once and for all. This is how you don't have to worry about breach of contract.
After walking out, the two of them returned to the hut very excitedly.
I made some simple preparations and prepared some food and drinks. After getting ready, I started my first mission to eliminate demons.
The four of them came to the place where spirit beasts are rented and sold in Qingfeng Valley. All the spirit beasts here are rideable, but the higher the level of spirit beasts, the higher the price. Generally, those above the Qi refining stage need to use spirit stones.
Zhang Mu and others only had Lin Han's three thousand gold leaves in their hands. Even if they exchanged them for low-level spiritual stones, it was only three pieces, which was not enough to ride a spiritual beast.
Since the spirit beast cannot be ridden, we can only find a more patient riding beast.
Zhang Mu saw a fiery red pony at a glance, and with a smile on his face, he walked towards it.
When Liu Li and the other three saw it, their eyes lit up and they all walked towards Ma Ju.
In the end, each of the four people had a pony, and the rental price for each horse was one gold leaf. Most people didn't know how to ride, so this was really not something the poor could afford.
The four people got on the red horse one after another. When they got up, the horse started to jump. It seemed that even the tamed horse was not willing to carry people easily.
Zhang Mu has always liked Xianxia things. Although this horse riding is still far from Xianxia, he believes that one day he will be able to make a difference.
Slowly, I got the horse to ride smoothly, and quickly ran towards the outside of the valley. This time, I felt a sense of traveling pleasure.
It was quite miserable for Zhang Mu to say that he was beaten when he first came here. Now it was his first time to go out on a mission, and he was able to ride such a pony. Not to mention how excited he was.
"Drive..." None of the four of them were not excited. They were very happy riding on the horse, and they rode towards the yellow maple forest.
Huang Fenglin left Qingfeng Valley by land for about a day, and riding such a strong horse probably only took a few hours.
After five hours of trekking, we finally arrived at the outskirts of the Yellow Maple Forest.
The four people got off the pony and led the pony towards the path. Since it was common for there to be some beasts and demons inside, but this was the secular world, the four of them were not very nervous.
As for Qingfeng Valley, a place for cultivating immortals, why can’t people in the secular world see or find it.
Because there is a mysterious barrier ten miles away from Qingfeng Valley, which can only be seen through by those who are cultivators of immortality. Even ordinary people will walk out stupidly when they walk in.
People like Zhang Mu have tokens given by their sects, so they can easily open the barrier.
"Liu Li, let Xiao Han hold the foal, and after Sun Xiao breaks, you and I will walk on the left and right sides, trying to form a protective circle."
Liu Li and the others nodded, stood up as they had just said, and then walked slowly towards the front.
This was done to protect Lin Han, the youngest, and also to protect the foals, because these foals had to be brought back intact, and if anything went wrong, compensation would be required.
No matter what the price of the foal is now, the net worth of the four of them is not much, so how can they have the spare money to pay for the foal?
Zhang Mu and Liu Li walked on both sides of Lin Han. One held the black iron sword in his hand, and the other opened the folding fan to prevent sudden attacks by wild beasts.
Sun Xiao also entered a defensive state, holding short blades in each hand, and he looked quite imposing.
I walked forward safely for a while without any danger.
But even so, the four of them did not take it lightly.
After all, in this strange forest, it is better to keep your spirit at 100%. If you make a mistake and you fall, you will really die in peace.
At this time, there was the sound of tree branches breaking.
After Zhang Mu and Liu Li heard this, they immediately became nervous and quickly protected Lin Han and Ma Ju before looking around with great vigilance.
