Picking up cubs and cultivating immortality: Sect disciples can all read minds

Chapter 20 Chenjia Village Hundred Refined Snake
Jing Xi waited at the stall for five days. For five whole days, there was no one. Do you dare to think? !
The cold wind was blowing, and the fallen leaves were blown to the top of Jing Xi's head, making it look particularly desolate.

Jing Xi: "..."

At this time, the sect next door was preparing to close the stall, and the uncle came over to give Jingxi a few words.

It turns out that they are not here specifically to recruit disciples. A large number of special tasks will be released every time a fixed time comes in the mission hall of Sanxiu City.

The tasks in the mission hall are divided into four types: heaven, earth, black and yellow. Heaven level is the most difficult, and yellow level is the opposite. Of course, the more difficult the task, the richer the reward.

The special tasks are released by the Rogue Cultivators Alliance and can be collected at the Special Tasks Hall. They are simple and easy to complete and the rewards are pretty good. Therefore, many low-level monks will go to the Rogue Cultivators City to pick up the tasks at this time.

"Fellow Daoist Jing, you can also take on a task, such as collecting herbs. It's simple and easy to complete, and you won't come back empty-handed."

Jing Xi exchanged names with them. The uncle's name was Guan Fei, and he was an elder of Feiyan Sect.

"Thank you, Uncle Guan, for reminding me. I'll take a look right now."

Jing Xi thanked Guan Fei with a smile, and the two groups parted ways. There was nothing going on, and Jing Xi was going to see what the mission was.

The Special Mission Hall is crowded with people. The jade engraved with special missions is floating in mid-air. As long as you touch it, you will accept the mission. Casual cultivators in different costumes are frantically rushing to grab the mission, fearing that they will miss it later.

Jingxi held Wangshu with one hand, and as the crowd surged, she was squeezed into the center.

"Ding! "One good deed a day" mission: complete the special mission above your head and be rewarded with [-] low-grade spiritual stones."

As soon as the task was released, Jing Xi saw someone about to receive the task. It was too late, but soon, she moved and lifted Wang Shu up before anyone else could touch the special task -
Wangshu, a clever little ghost, stretched out his arm and happened to touch Mission Yujue.

The casual cultivator who originally wanted to take on this task went to grab something else with a dark face.

[As expected of my disciple, he and I have a tacit understanding. How do you say that?Minds think alike! 】

Wangshu blinked and handed the jade to Jingxi.

Yes, she is the baby who has the best rapport with Master!

Jing Xi probed his spiritual consciousness into Yujue, and his mission was to go to Liujia Village near Sanxiu City to deal with a Hundred Refined Snake in the early stages of foundation building.

Mission Yujue has an automatic navigation function, so Jingxi no longer fears getting lost.

Almost all the special missions have been accepted, and there are still a few useless missions floating in the air, which are the kind that are worthless and a pity to abandon.

After completing the task, you need to register the information. After registration, the casual cultivators walked together in twos and threes. Jingxi and Wangshu also followed the guidance of the task Yujue and went to Liujiacun to complete the task.

A quarter of an hour later, all the tasks had been taken, the Special Tasks Hall fell into silence, and the staff were preparing to pack up and close the door.

"and many more!"

Manager Zou, who was on duty today, was about to close the door when suddenly a middle-aged man blocked the door with his hand, preventing it from closing.

After Manager Zou saw his face clearly, he quickly opened the door again and said, "Master Mu, why are you here?"

Mu Qikai was panting and asked instead, "Where's the mission? That heaven-level mission."

Manager Zou was confused, "Master Mu, this is the Special Mission Hall, where did the heaven-level mission come from?"

Hearing what Manager Zou said, Mu Qikai's heart skipped a beat. He pulled Manager Zou away and glanced at the hall. Not a single task Yujue was gone.

"Have all the special tasks been taken?" Manager Zou noticed that Mu Qikai's tone was not very good. He, the two-foot-long monk, was confused and answered honestly, "All have been taken. There is not a single one left."

Mu Qikai persisted and asked, "What about the mission to Liujiacun? Who did it? Do you have any information?"

"Yes, yes, yes," Manager Zou hurriedly went to get the booklet. He flipped through a few pages and pointed to a piece of information on it and said, "Master Mu, it's her."

Mu Qikai looked over hastily, and then he was stunned.

Liujiacun is a small village that relies on Sanxiu City to survive. People here are ordinary people, and only the village chief is a monk with a first-level Qi refining.

When Jing Xi and Wang Shu appeared at the entrance of the village, the village chief, who had already received the news, was already waiting there.

"Immortal," after inviting Jing and Xi to his home, the village chief's attitude was very low, "I am the village chief of Chenjia Village. If the immortal can come to Liujia Village, I would like to thank the immortal on behalf of the whole village."

Jing Xi waved his hand, "Village Chief, you don't have to be like this. I'm here for the reward. The matter is urgent. Village Chief, please tell me the specific situation first."

Village Chief Chen nodded and told the situation of their village.

"Immortal, it's like this. Our Chenjia Village depends on the Sanxiu City for survival. Because it's not far from the Sanxiu City, the immortals from the Sanxiu Alliance come to the village from time to time, and monsters generally don't dare to act unruly."

"But a few months ago, a hundred-refined snake appeared in the mountains. Even if it eats the livestock we raise, it also eats people! In just a few months, more than a dozen people have been killed by it!"

When Village Chief Chen said this, he wanted to cry if he wasn't worried about losing his composure in front of Jing Xi.

There were not many people in their village, and the dead were young men and women. Without the backbone of the family, the elderly and children in the family could not survive. The Bailian Snake was really murderous!
"The immortals from the Loose Cultivators Alliance came before, but the Hundred Refined Snake was so cunning that it hid in the mountains and took advantage of the terrain, but the immortals didn't catch it."

When Village Chief Chen said this, he bravely glanced at Jing Xi. He was worried that Jing Xi would turn around and leave. After all, the monks in the Rogue Cultivator Alliance were more powerful than ordinary monks.

Jing Xi didn't think much about it. When Village Chief Chen offered to help her, she refused.

"It's better to get rid of the Hundred Refined Snakes as soon as possible," Jing Xi said seriously, "There's no need to catch the wind and wash away the dust."

Village Chief Chen flattered Jing Xi and took her to the places where snake monsters often hang out.

The village chief's home was a bit far away from there. On the way, village chief Chen continued to tell Jing Xi the information he knew.

"That Hundred-Refined Snake is quite strange. I have seen it, uh, stealing food and the fruits and vegetables grown by the villagers. I thought it was a good monster that only ate vegetarian food, so I didn't go and disperse it immediately. Build the city and look for immortals to solve it.”

Village Chief Chen looked very regretful, "When I first saw it, it was all white and had clear eyes. It would hide when it saw people and was very timid. When I saw it again a few days ago, it already had the rudiments of cruelty. I will fight for it." If you get even a little closer to it, its eyes will turn red!"

Thinking of the Hundred-Refined Snake he saw a few days ago, Village Chief Chen couldn't help but shudder. He had a nightmare last night, in which the Hundred-Refined Snake chased him with red eyes all night!

Jing Xi paused, "That's because it ate people, and the Hundred Refined Snake became vicious."

Monsters like the Bailian Snake are very docile and timid. They usually live in deep mountains and old forests. If they don't attack them specifically, they will not take the initiative to hurt people.

Jing Xi told Village Chief Chen about the characteristics of the Bailian Snake. Village Chief Chen looked confused. He didn’t know how the village had offended the Bailian Snake.

When he couldn't figure it out, he gave up. After arriving at that place, Jing Xi asked Village Chief Chen to hold Wang Shu and hide in a dark place, while she waited here for the Bailian Snake to come down the mountain.

Village Chief Chen said that regardless of whether there are people or not, the Bailian Snake will come down the mountain every ten days, rain or shine, and today is the day for it to come down the mountain.
