Volume 1: Rebellion in Chang'an Chapter 44 Hidden Mission
Zhenjiang City.
As the capital of Zhenjiang Prefecture, its grandeur is naturally incomparable to Yuanshan City.
Even though it was still a short distance away, Lu Qingshan could already see Zhenjiang City.
The city wall is majestic, blocking the way ahead like a towering mountain.
The city wall, built with basalt, is completely black and exudes a cold metallic luster.
A familiar feeling arose in Lu Qingshan's heart.
Zhenjiang City, a memory from long ago.
Unfortunately, such a magnificent city still could not stop the underworld.
Lu Qingshan walked quickly into the city.
The first thing he did after entering the city was to go to the Monster Hunting Alliance in Zhenjiang City to settle the mission.
If the task is not settled, then this unfinished task will always be displayed on his task history.
…
A huge mansion in the west of Zhenjiang City.
There are countless pavilions and towers inside, as well as groups of slaves and maids.
Zhenjiang City is the provincial capital, and every inch of land is valuable. The owner of such a grand mansion in Zhenjiang City must be of extraordinary status.
This is also true.
The owner of this house was actually a deacon of Zhenjiang City, the foundation-building cultivator Cai Heng Taoist.
"Master." A middle-aged man with ordinary looks hurried to the study, stood outside the door, and called respectfully.
"Well, what's the matter?" A male voice came from the study.
"Reporting to the master, there is a young monk outside who wants to see you." The middle-aged man cautiously probed.
The master of the family has been troubled by something during this period and has become a little moody.
So these servants have been doing things very carefully recently, for fear of offending others.
"Huh? Who's coming ?" There was a hint of surprise in the voice of the person in the room.
Young monk?
"The monk did not reveal his name..."
"However, he said that he could solve the patriarch's current problem. I dare not make a decision, so I hurried to ask the patriarch for instructions..."
The person in the room did not respond and remained silent for a while.
Finally, the person in the room made a decision.
"Go and ask him to come in, and bring him to me in the study."
"Yes, I understand."
…
The middle-aged man walked to the gate.
Outside the door, there was a young monk waiting.
It was Lu Qingshan.
"Sir, please follow me."
Under the guidance of the middle-aged man, Lu Qingshan strode into the Cai Mansion.
The middle-aged man brought Lu Qingshan to the outside of the study and respectfully said, "Master, the person has been brought here."
"Come in."
Lu Qingshan pushed open the door and walked in.
Inside the study, there is a paulownia wood desk with a pile of jade slips on it. Judging from the situation, the owner of this room should be handling official business.
The person sitting there was an elderly monk with gray hair, his long gray hair was combed neatly and meticulously, and he sat upright, like a green pine tree.
The old monk looked Lu Qingshan up and down for a while, and finally said, "You said you can solve my current troubles?"
Lu Qingshan looked at Deacon Cai, who was approaching his death, nodded, and slowly said, "Yes, Deacon Cai wants to find his only son who is stranded outside."
In a few months, Zhenjiang City will become a living hell.
At this moment, one can imagine how many demon cultivators from the underworld are hiding in the city.
Why would Lu Qingshan take the risk to come to such a dangerous place?
Go ahead to dangers?
Lu Qingshan is not that stubborn.
He had to come to Zhenjiang City for two reasons.
First of all, he has accumulated enough experience points at this moment and can break through to the foundation-building stage at any time.
To become a foundation-building cultivator, one also needs a foundation-building technique.
When he was in the Qi Refining Stage, the situation was critical and he had no choice but to choose the popular [Qi Drawing Technique] as his Qi Refining Technique.
Fortunately, the impact of Qigong is not very great.
But he can no longer be so casual about the foundation-building technique.
For him at the moment, only in Zhenjiang City can he find a high-level foundation-building technique that suits his taste.
Another very important point is.
Lu Qingshan needs to build a special fighting system.
He needs to learn some new skills and enrich his means.
"Jiutian" does not limit the number of skills that players can learn.
However, the player's experience points are limited, and they must be used to increase levels and upgrade skills. Sword cultivators even have to use them to maintain their natal sword.
It is better to be good at one thing than to be proficient in all things.
So normally, players need to control the number of skills they learn and try their best to improve their skill levels.
However, the skills that could be learned in the small county towns of Yuanshan City could not meet his requirements at all.
Only in a large human city like Zhenjiang City can you learn some powerful skills.
The Deacon Cai in front of him is related to a hidden mission, and the reward for the mission is a secret sword technique!
He had only heard of this mission in his previous life, but had never had the opportunity.
Now that there are no competitors, it is natural that Lu Qingshan would get the mission reward.
The mission background is not complicated:
Deacon Cai is approaching the end of his life, but on the surface, he has no Taoist partner and no children.
But Lu Qingshan knew that Deacon Cai actually had a love affair when he was young.
At that time, Deacon Cai and a girl from a small family became a Taoist couple, which was a beautiful thing.
Later, some evil practitioners violated Daxia's ban, killed innocent people indiscriminately, and refined evil magic weapons.
Deacon Cai was a member of Da Xia's [Pacification Division] at the time, and he led the monks to encircle and kill the evil cultivators.
Unexpectedly, due to a moment of carelessness, the evil cultivator escaped.
After escaping, the evil cultivator held a grudge and found an opportunity to massacre the entire family of Deacon Cai and his Taoist companion.
His Taoist partner, who was pregnant at the time, luckily escaped the tragedy because she went into the city to find Deacon Cai.
When his fellow Taoist learned that his entire family was massacred because of Deacon Cai, he was heartbroken and unable to accept it, let alone face Deacon Cai. In the end, he simply changed his identity and disappeared.
Later, although Deacon Cai killed the evil cultivator with his own hands, the fate of his wife and children being separated could not be changed.
Deacon Cai is now over 170 years old.
The lifespan of a Qi-refining cultivator is one hundred years, and the lifespan of a Foundation-building cultivator is two hundred years.
Recently, Deacon Cai has been feeling that his time is running out.
As he is about to die, his greatest wish is to see his fellow Taoists and his children who are living outside.
In the previous life, a sword-cultivating player completed dozens of rounds of a complex task before finally finding Deacon Cai's offspring.
Of course, such a difficult task also has extraordinary rewards.
The secret sword technique awarded at the end of the mission is truly a divine skill.
With the help of this secret sword technique, the sword-cultivating player enjoyed a brief period of glory.
Unlike the sword-cultivating player, Lu Qingshan did not need to do the extremely tedious and time-consuming serial tasks.
——He knew from the beginning who Deacon Cai’s offspring was and where he was at the moment.
Deacon Cai’s hidden mission is a competitive mission. Although there is no limit on the number of people who can accept the mission, only one person can receive the mission reward.
Once someone completes a quest, it disappears permanently.
Therefore, after completing the task, the swordsman player in the previous life generously announced his task process on the forum.
It has been so long that Lu Qingshan can't remember the specific steps clearly.
However, Lu Qingshan remembered the answer to the task clearly.
