Immortal quest system

Chapter 2 Mission Completion
"Beep beep, beep beep"

"I know, I know, I can't go! I'm so annoying..."

On the mountain gate of Hanqingmen, hundreds of candidates are struggling to climb, just for the chance to enter the immortal gate.At the foot of the mountain, an idle young man walked towards a piece of farmland with a helpless expression on his face.

"Digging Sweet Potatoes: 0/10"

The "task bar" in front of him kept flashing, and the alarm sounded endlessly.Chen Yao is no stranger to this scene, he has been exposed to similar things in the original world.It's just that the taskbar will only appear on the screen at that time, and will not jump into people's minds.

Why does such a thing appear in this borderless world of immortal law and dao karma?Chen Yao was also confused, and could only follow the indicated route, hoping that the siren would stop for a while.

After walking for about a stick of incense, a farmhouse appeared in front of Chen Yao, with a few acres of fertile land planted with many crops, and it would not be surprising if there were some sweet potatoes in the field.

"Oh, is it possible that we really have to dig ten sweet potatoes?"

Chen Yao was scratching his head in distress, but an old couple walked out of the farm house.

"Who are you? Are you a demon who came down from the mountain?!"

Although the old woman was already seventy years old, she was in good spirits and stared at Chen Yao vigilantly.The old man behind him also looked uneasy, as if he had a lot of prejudice against monks.

"That, old man, I'm sorry."

The alarm kept ringing in his head, and Chen Yao said helplessly with a cheeky face: "I have an unfeeling request, may I ask you to borrow some sweet potatoes? I will definitely repay you several times in the future!"

"no!"

The old woman's reaction was not what Chen Yao expected. She took half a step forward tremblingly and said angrily, "You monks are all monsters with evil intentions. My sweet potatoes are only for people to eat. Don’t give it to the demon! Go away!”

"Old man..."

"call……"

Chen Yao still wanted to fight for a few words, but the task bar in front of him suddenly turned gray and dimmed, and the siren stopped immediately.

Could it be that this task is considered a failure?No more alerts?

awesome!
Chen Yao was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed to apologize to the old man: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I also acted helplessly, I offended you so much, I'm really sorry..."

"Ding"

A strange sound sounded in Chen Yao's mind, and a new task bar appeared in front of his eyes. The content on the task bar directly made Chen Yao hold back the second half of his sentence.

"New task trigger: grab sweet potatoes: 0/10"

"Hey, I'll go! Are you kidding me?!"

Chen Yao was on the verge of collapse. In the original world, he was considered a game master, but he has been in the game world for so many years, has he ever seen such a nonsensical task? !

No, you can't be led by the nose by this crappy task!
Chen Yao became a little annoyed, turned around and ran towards the foot of the mountain, but stopped after running a few steps, and squatted on the ground with his head in his arms.

"Ahhh!! Don't make noise!! I'll grab it, can't I grab it?!"

Chen Yao's weird appearance made the old couple even more frightened. They ran into the house in a hurry, and after a while they caught up with a rake.

"Monster! Monster! Get out!"

The old woman didn't have much strength. Before she could hit Chen Yao with the rake, she was grabbed by the latter and snatched her away.

"Old man, I'm really, really sorry. I'm really forced to do nothing. I just want ten sweet potatoes. I'll leave when I'm done digging. I'll definitely come to the door to apologize someday!"

Chen Yao couldn't care less, he grabbed the rake and went to the field, and raked it down hard on the melon patch.

"Squeak!"

Who would have thought that this rake would startle a nest of field mice under the melon, and a few large mice would gallop out, brushing Chen Yao's ankles and running away.

"Fuck you Mickey Mouse!"

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Chen Yao slapped a field mouse to death with a rake, and threw it outside the field with a single wave.The rest of the voles probably felt threatened, and broke out of their nests one after another, fled in all directions, and disappeared after a while.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Chen Yao took the opportunity to kill a few more voles, and stopped when he saw that they had all escaped, panting heavily while leaning on the nail rake.

"Little, young man, I never expected that you look crazy, but you have such an old-fashioned heart."

At some point, the old woman had tremblingly walked to Chen Yao's side, her previous vigilance and worry were swept away, and gratitude was instead shown.

"My husband and I are old and have no strength. We have been plagued by rats for a long time, and we don't know who to ask for help. Young man, you have sharp eyes, you can see where the rat nest is at a glance, and calm down the rat plague for us. We really don't know what to do. It would be nice to be grateful..."

"I……"

Only then did Chen Yao come to his senses. It turned out that the old couple had made a mistake, thinking that he was a kind-hearted young man who was not good at speaking, and rushed to help them get rid of rats!

"Well, old man, I'm not..."

"Hehe, boy, stop talking, and don't call me an old man. If my grandson is still around, he will be about your age. Just call me grandma."

The old woman smiled kindly, turned around to discuss with the old man, and then turned to Chen Yao and said, "Young man, don't you want sweet potatoes? Dig, dig as many as you like, and take it as our thank you gift to you."

"Then... I, I'm not welcome!"

Hearing this sentence, Chen Yao was relieved, thanked him hurriedly, turned around and started digging, but within a short while, he had dug enough for ten sweet potatoes.

"Young man, you also carry this basket. Do you still have to rush up the mountain to find a way to enter the fairy gate? It's not easy to walk while holding sweet potatoes. It would be more convenient to have a carrying basket."

At some point, the old man had already brought a basket from the house, picked up the sweet potatoes that Chen Yao had dug up one by one, and handed them to Chen Yao.

"Old man, you... I..."

Chen Yao was also at a loss for a moment. Although he was very fierce to him before, these two old people are obviously not bad people.Maybe it's just some past grievances with the monks, which are hard to resolve.Now that I had knocked down the rat problem by mistake, the other party didn't know it, and even sent sweet potatoes and a basket, which made Chen Yao feel a little embarrassed.

"Then, I won't refuse."

Chen Yao bowed, reached out to take the basket and sweet potatoes, and was about to bid farewell to the old man, but suddenly there was a ding in his mind, and the task bar in front of him flashed suddenly, changing the text content.

“Sweet potato digging 10/10”

"Is this considered to be the completion of the task?"

Chen Yao is also very curious, what will happen after the task is completed?Will it be the same as the world before I traveled, will there be rich rewards?

"boom!"

There was a strange sound effect, and the task bar in front of Chen Yao suddenly exploded, and the gold powder scattered and passed through Chen Yao's body, obviously not a real entity either.

"Congratulations! Mission accomplished!"

A new prompt bar popped up, and there was a shining golden button under this line of text, with four characters "Receive Reward" written on it.
