Qingyunzong.

main peak.

Yunshu Pavilion is the Book Collection Pavilion.

And Yunyou Pavilion is the place responsible for "providing opportunities for experience".

"Junior Brother Bai, you've only been a beginner for more than six months, and you want to go out to practice?"

"I want to see it and gain knowledge."

"Hey, although the younger brother is under the tutelage of an immortal, the training time is short after all, and most of the training tasks involve some strange things, it is not a trivial matter, the younger brother should think twice."

"Thank you, brother, for your suggestion, let me take a look first."

The elder guarding the Yunyou Pavilion just saw Bai Shan joining the pavilion, he seemed very enthusiastic and took the initiative to chat, but at this moment he heard that he was about to accept the task, but tried to dissuade him again and again, seeing that it was useless, he sighed softly and said: "Junior brother If you insist on this, put your hands on the black platform in the center, and you can see the task information, if you choose to let me know, I will register for the younger brother."

Black table?

It was the first time for Bai Shan to accept the task, and he was quite curious. He looked at the dark and cold stone platform in the center, and suddenly said: "Is the material of this stone platform the same as the Martial Arts Order?"

The old man said: "This is the sand spirit that is not popular in the spiritual iron. It can connect with the human spirit. To the immortals, this sand spirit is the waste rock in the sky, but it is quite rare for us."

Bai Shan asked if he didn't understand, and saluted: "Please enlighten me, brother, what will happen to this incoming spirit iron?"

The old man said: "The first-order spirit iron is called Shiling, and its weight is dozens or even a hundred times heavier than steel. This is the main material for making weapons in the Vientiane Realm, but it is quite rare in the world."

The weight is dozens of times, or even a hundred times that of steel?
Bai Shan suddenly remembered the heavy black needles in the metal honeycomb that he seized earlier.

Could the black needle be Shi Ling?

However, the person who manipulates the black needle is definitely not the Vientiane Realm.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "Can only monks in the Vientiane Realm use stone spirit weapons?"

The old man said: "Stone spirits also have high-grade and low-grade ones. The high-grade ones are a whole, but the low-grade ones are small and difficult to gather. Generally, monks in the Vientiane Realm don't use low-grade ones."

Bai Shan asked: "Where do the inferior products usually go?"

The old man shook his head, apparently ignorant, and immediately asked, "Why do you ask these questions?"

Bai Shan said: "Oh, I just thought that I might not be able to afford high-grade stone spirit weapons, so I thought about searching for some inferior ones in advance."

The old man was stunned, and said with a smile: "Junior Brother, it's better not to think about these things, just practice hard."

Bai Shan nodded, then took a few steps forward, raised his hand and placed it in the middle of the black stone platform.

Just like the information of the Martial Dao Order entered his mind. A lot of information about the training tasks emerged in Bai Shan's mind.

He picked it up a little, and looked carefully at a newly released task. After all, the previously released task may have already been solved.

Mission Name: Granny Denghua

Mission Location: Black Pine Farm in the western suburbs of Beijing

Task issuer: Owner of Black Pine Farm

Published: 51 years of Daqian, December

Estimated Difficulty: Easy

Task reward: Three low-grade spirit stones (provided by the farm owner)

Specific description (1/3):
Daqian 48 years, autumn.

In the black pine farm in the western suburbs of the capital, the owner's wife was seriously ill. She sought medical treatment everywhere, but was unable to be cured.The owner of the villa was worried, thinking of the deep love he had with his wife in the past, he even cried sadly, looking at the oil lamp in a daze.

At this time, the light of the oil lamp suddenly turned into a white-haired old woman. The old woman told the owner that as long as she burned three sticks of incense and prayed to her, she could help the owner's wife to heal her illness.

At first, the owner of the estate refused, but after a few days, his wife became seriously ill.In desperation, the owner had no choice but to treat the dead horse as a live horse doctor, burn three sticks of incense, and pray silently to the old woman.

That night, the old woman appeared, reached out and rubbed the owner's wife's chest, and the next day, the owner's wife recovered from her illness.

The owner is very happy.

Three months later, the old woman said that her daughter was an adult and needed to find a husband for her daughter, so she asked the landlord for help.The owner of the villa naturally disagreed, but after learning that the so-called "finding a husband" was just a puppet carved from the wood of the old locust tree, he still agreed.He himself is a man of dexterity, and after he carved the puppet, he gave the old Huai puppet to the old woman.

Seven days later, the old woman reappeared.The old woman told the owner that her daughter liked the husband whom he took care of very much, and she was going to get married tonight.It's just that someone needs to make the bed for marriage, and the old woman came here to ask the owner and his wife to make the bed for the couple.

The owner felt that the old woman was a bit insidious, so he refused with excuses. But that night, the owner's wife suddenly clutched her chest, screamed, and rolled on the bed in pain.The owner hurriedly lit three sticks of incense and prayed to the old woman.After the old woman appeared, the owner agreed to make the bed for the couple.As a result, the owner's wife's heart didn't hurt anymore.

After this incident, the owner of the villa secretly searched for an expert, but he was coaxed by some wandering Taoist priests, and took some plausible talismans and pasted them at home.But the old woman never appeared again.

Half a year later, just when the owner thought everything was all right, the old woman reappeared.The old woman said that her youngest daughter had also grown up and asked the landlord to find a husband for her youngest daughter too.The owner of the villa has a talisman, and he knows that the old woman must be a sinister and evil thing, so he firmly disagrees.

The old woman left without saying anything. That night, the owner's wife clutched her heart again, in pain.The owner of the villa tried his best to no avail, so he could only burn three sticks of incense again and pray to the old woman.

But this time the old woman did not appear.

That night, the owner's wife died.

After her death, her chest was a little shriveled. The owner checked and found that her heart was gone, and the skin outside the heart was as soft as a layer of skin, and it would sink even with a slight pressure.

The owner of the villa was terrified, and immediately reported to the officials the next day, but after the police came to check, they told him that there was no problem, so he left.

The owner was relieved, and then mourned his wife.

Seven more days passed like this.

Seven days later, at midnight, the Black Pine Manor was broken by a shrill cry.

That is the owner's sister.

The owner's sister was in pain like crazy.

After investigating, the owner found that his sister also had a heartache.

He knew that the old woman was coming again, but there was nothing he could do.

Fortunately, his sister was safe that night.

The next day, the owner wanted to move, but the hearts of the other female family members in the manor also ached, and they couldn't move at all.

The owner of the villa went to the government again, and the police officers suggested that he go to Zhongxing Gongyue Pavilion to exchange spirit stones, and then go to the imperial court for help.

Specific description (2/3):
Work hard for 50 years, winter.

Lin Quanquan, the elder of Cuizhu Peak of the Qingyun Sect, went to the Black Pine Manor and beheaded the old lady Denghua with the "Small Imperial Sword Technique".

According to Elder Lin's description, the Denghua old woman is just an ordinary ghost. When a woman in the manor feels distressed, she blows out all the candles in the manor, and then places a wooden figure beside the woman to trap the ghost and force her to show up.

The demon's strength is average, and it can't easily hurt warriors of level five and above. It can be killed easily with level 1 spells, or it can be burned with fire after it parasitizes the wooden dummy.

Specific description (3/3):
Work hard for 51 years, winter.

The owner of the black pine nut manor asked for help again, saying that the eldest daughter of the old lady Denghua had gone out to cause trouble.

The task was rated as easy given the information and coping styles available.

"This heart-digging Granny Denghua has been mentioned by Ningning several times, so she is a familiar face.

This looks like a good practice object.

It's just that before setting off, you can ask Miss Xiaomei again, which will be even more foolproof. "

After Bai Shan finished scanning "Grandma Lantern Flower", he continued to scan other tasks.

After this scan, he really found that the capital and even the surrounding areas of the capital are not peaceful, and there are many kinds of ghosts.

Then why didn't he meet?

After thinking about it for a while, Bai Shan knew the answer.

When returning from Crescent Bay, Yuche's maid was Miss Xiaomei
With Miss Xiaomei around, those ghosts should stay far away. Even if they accidentally strayed into someone else's territory, the ghosts would hide in hiding.

Afterwards, most of his activities were in the Song Mansion, around the Song Mansion, and Qing Yunzong.

The area around the Song Mansion is a prosperous place in the capital, even if there are ghosts in this place, they have been cleaned up.

Qing Yunzong and Han Yunfeng are under the eyes of Yingfengxian, where would any ghost who doesn't open his eyes go?
It can be said that this is a safe area.

But now, he will start to take the initiative to go to those unsafe areas.

Thinking of this, Bai Shan raised his head and asked, "Senior brother, is there any other senior brother who has taken up the practice mission of Granny Denghua?"

The old man raised his head and said: "This task is simple, of course I have it, but the younger brother can just go and have a look. If there are many people to take care of it, nothing will happen."

"Can you know which brothers and sisters they are?"

"You can't say that, Junior Brother, don't embarrass me."

"It's okay, I just asked casually."

Bai Shan nodded, that's not bad.

At least he can see what other people do first, and he can also understand what a ghost is from the perspective of a bystander.

After seeing it clearly, if he comes again by himself, he will be familiar with the way, which also saves him the process of self-exploration.

As for the three low-grade spirit stones, he will not try to get them by force.

He had already decided on this task in his heart, but with the idea of ​​reading it before deciding, he calmed down and continued to read. After all, he could grasp a lot of information just by reading the specific description of the experience task.

he looked at each
Suddenly, his pupils froze slightly.

A familiar name appeared in front of his eyes - Ice and Fire Nation.

He looked carefully.

Mission Name: Ice and Fire Nation
Mission Location: Country of Ice and Fire
Task issuer: Jingcheng Wuya
Published: 51 years of Daqian, December

Deadline: Daqian 52, the end of January
Estimated Difficulty: Difficult

Task reward: [-] low-grade spirit stones
Personnel requirements: I Ching washing marrow level and above
Specific description: Go to Wuya, after signing a confidentiality agreement, you can know

"Wu Ya in the capital, Ice and Fire Nation. Confidentiality agreement? And it was just released?"

Bai Shan's expression froze slightly.

A lot of memories came flooding back
The first-order monsters and beast tides in the Northland, Ji Yewang, the number one master of the Ice and Fire Kingdom who can project ice spears and freeze in the void, is a country that is becoming more and more chaotic.
And, the Yanyang Demon Tiger in the secret realm of Yantuo's Corpse, the statue of Jiuling Yuanhu.
"Maybe you can go and see, even if you don't go, you can go and listen to the secrets kept in the non-disclosure agreement.
Although this [Extreme Sun Chapter] is a fake, it is also the highest-quality exercise in my hands. Even if I don't practice it for the time being, I can still gather all the resources for cultivation for emergencies.

However, I still have to find someone to practice with.”

Many thoughts flashed through, Bai Shan raised his head and shouted: "Senior Brother, what is the mission of this Ice and Fire Nation?"

The old man guarding the pavilion said: "This was announced by a royal enshrined in Wu Ya. When it was released, he hurriedly said that he had to leave for the Ice and Fire Kingdom in less than two months. I really don't know the details.

Junior brother is interested, you can ask.However, brother really does not recommend you to go there.This marks a difficult task, not so easy to accomplish. "

Bai Shan nodded and said, "Brother, I'll take on the task of Granny Denghua first."

The old man smiled and said, "Okay, I'll register it for you right now, so let's take a look and have fun with this mission."

"Senior Brother Lao."

into the night.

Bai Shan being stalked by his own wife is another kind of intimacy.

After the cloud and rain, the two calmed down and had a pillow talk.

"Msanggong, it's so difficult to practice, I don't think I can do it"

"What did you practice? You can tell me."

Afterwards, Mrs. Song talked about the problems encountered in the practice of physical exercise.

Baishan is now a high-rise building, and he can analyze it by himself, so he sorted it out for his wife and raised the main points.

The little lady felt suddenly enlightened, very happy, and pestered her again.

After another cloud and rain, she fell asleep exhausted.

midnight
The little rascal arrived on time, quietly absorbing the yang energy.

Bai Shan recounted the mission of the "Grandma Lantern Flower" he saw during the day, and asked again: "Do these ghosts belong to the abyss?"

Xiaomei said charmingly: "No, actually this is not a ghost, but a ghoul."

"It's good that it has nothing to do with you." Bai Shan said, "Then what are these ghouls?"

Xiaomei said: "Most of them are born from corpses, but they are not the soul of the original owner of the corpse, but a hybrid existence born due to special circumstances and terrain.

Well.
Remember the Almighty Corpse I told you about?

Because of the kalpa contained in the body of the powerful corpse, the body will form a small world.

If a mortal corpse encounters a special situation and terrain, the body will give birth to a ghoul.

The rest are all reincarnated.

However, the dead can go to reincarnation, but the ghouls cannot.

The dead will regain their bodies after reincarnation, but ghouls can only obtain them through their own practice.

They eat the heart of a living person, swallow the breath of a living person, and eat the brain of a living person, because these three correspond to a person's source of qi and blood, source of essence, and source of primordial spirit.

The little lantern flower you mentioned is only eating hearts, so it should be a low-level demon ghost. Even if it is possessed, it is at most at the level of the fifth realm of martial arts. Just guard against the innate ghost skills it acquired when it became a demon ghost. OK. "

Bai Shan asked: "Is it really that simple?"

Xiaomei thought for a while, and said in a frivolous tone: "Not necessarily, uncle. Many of these ghouls like to deceive people. After all, they are all gathered by evil thoughts. What can't be done?"

Bai Shan narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Please elaborate."

Xiaomei smiled and said: "People know it, they know it. It's just those tricks to deceive people.

But, sir, you don't have to worry at all.

This kind of ghoul is afraid of aura, and even more afraid of the power that contains the power of fire.
From this point of view, uncle, you are their nemesis.

Not to mention the heart-eating little ghoul, even if it is a breath-sucking one, you have to take a detour if you really know your strength, my aunt. "
