Chapter 30 Family Tasks
"You've asked the right place. All the instruments are listed in the Artifact Refining Hall, and only the flying sword is displayed in the warehouse."

"As far as the few refiners in the clan, the Patriarch dares not trust them to refine the spirit bamboo. Every time, he finds a second-level refiner who has made friends with him."

The old man stretched out his hand and made a move, and three dark emerald flying swords flew towards him suddenly, forming a circle of three talents.

Although it is refined with spiritual plants, but looking at it's incomparable sharpness and exuding bursts of murderous aura, it feels cool to stand next to it.

It is worthy of being the number one in killing and cutting, and the Feijian who is proud of the same level.

"To redeem a Black Bamboo Sword, you need [-] family contributions. But with your qualifications, the clan will definitely give it to you in a few years, so there is no need to spend contributions to exchange it now."

"Xie Laozhang made a point, just asking casually."

Bai Zichen took a deep look at Mo Zhujian, and for a moment he really wanted to return the two bottles of elixir and exchange Feijian for it.

But with reason in his heart, he still persuaded him.

"Although the Black Bamboo Sword is good, Zishen Pills are not only useful for me in the future, but uncle also needs them, so don't give them up."

Uncle Bai Jiu'an's limited spiritual root, even a well-known ascetic in the clan, barely managed to reach the eighth level of Qi Refining.

The key point is that Bai Jiuan is already 48 years old, and he will reach the important hurdle of 50 years old in only two years.

If there is purple ginseng pill to help, there is still a chance to improve his cultivation base.

"I'll send two bottles of purple ginseng pills to my uncle first... As for the Qi Buqi pills, I'll just take one every month, and I'll speed up the refining efficiency after I get used to it."

Bai Zichen estimated that he should be able to reach the peak of the fifth level of Qi refining before the end of the year.

"The contribution of the Bai Ling family is less than half of mine... Presumably the elixir has been used up. Something is wrong, my goal is to build a foundation, so why compete with a little girl."

After leaving the warehouse, Bai Zichen hummed a little song and went to look for Bai Jiu'an.

If I remember correctly, my uncle Bai Jiu'an took up the position of guarding the mine veins in the clan last year in order to accumulate cultivation resources.

In addition to the output of spiritual plants, this cold iron vein is the main source of spiritual stones for the Bai family.

As a first-grade middle-grade ore, cold iron can be used to refine middle-grade magical artifacts, or become auxiliary materials for top-grade or top-grade magical artifacts.

The value is not too high, the advantage is that this first-order mine vein is tens of kilometers long, and there is a large amount of cold iron exposed on the surface, so it is relatively easy to mine.

The monthly output of cold iron exceeds two hundred catties.

About five or six hundred ordinary miners and seven or eight clansmen stay on the mine all year round. The former excavate the ore and transport it to the warehouse. iron.

Bai Jiu'an, as the current Bai family, is a small number of monks in the late stage of Qi refining. They sit here, not only to guard against monsters, but also to deter wandering cultivators.

……

"Sister, don't give me the pill that Master gave you next time. If I hadn't used your two Qi-replenishing pills, you might have already reached the sixth level of Qi refining!"

Bai Wei, who had a tiger head and a tiger brain back then, has grown into a strong young man, and his cultivation has reached the fourth level of Qi refining.

"The sixth level of Qi refining, how can it be so simple."

Over the past few years, Bai Ling has become more and more succulent, his skin is as warm and moist as jade, and his hair is radiant with blue hair.

"The cultivation speed of Taiyin Suyun Xuanshui True Kungfu is much faster than the previous ones. It's a pity that my spiritual root is not compatible, and I can't switch to practice. Otherwise, I will definitely beg the patriarch to teach this method to you that day."

There was a trace of sadness on Bai Wei's face, and it disappeared in a flash: "Sister, I have accepted several family tasks in your name in the past two months, with the care of my master and the help of my family members, it was completed quickly. There are also sixty points in total. Contribution, combined with what you left before, can be exchanged for a bottle of Qi Bu Pills!"

Family tasks, there must be difficulties and difficulties.

As long as it is promulgated artificially, there is naturally room for manipulation. Honggu, as the elder of the family, and her disciple Bai Ling, who is the foundation-building seed of the Bai family, often receive some preferential treatment in terms of task content.

Even if other people have some opinions, at most they can complain in private, which can't make waves.

Like Bai Chongwu's nectar collection, an unsuspecting and low-cost family task, he had to travel to five places in Heishan County to collect five different nectars, which were used to refine a kind of advanced sandalwood.

The time on the road alone will take more than a month.

As for the return reward, there are only ten points of contribution.

The family missions assigned to Bai Ling are often near the clan land, and Honggu arranged for her subordinates to help, so they can be completed within a month, and the rewards will not be less than [-] points.

"Alright, the Buqi Pill has been discontinued for several months, so I just went to get a new one today."

The siblings went to the warehouse side by side and offered to exchange for a bottle of Qi Bu Qi pills, but they were rejected.

"Grandpa Mo, why is this? I remember the patriarch said that I can openly exchange all items in the warehouse, and there is no limit to the number of times!"

There was a hint of coldness in Bai Ling's clear spring-like eyes, probably because of practicing Taiyin Suyun Xuanshui True Kungfu, she already had a high-cold temperament at a young age.

But she often came to the warehouse, knowing that the old man was a monk of the same generation as the patriarch, so she kept restraint in her words.

The old man was also expected to build a foundation, but he encountered a second-order monster during an operation to hunt and kill monsters in the depths of the Black Mountain.Most of the companions were killed, and the old man managed to escape, but his meridians were ruptured, and he could not improve his cultivation in this life.

Since then, he has been guarding the mine veins for the Bai family, working hard, and returned to the clan land last year because of his old age.

"It's not that I don't change it for you, it's that you are late!"

The old man shook his head, his cloudy eyes revealed a gleam of light.

"Someone took away ten bottles of Qi Buqi pills in one go, and there are only two scattered in the warehouse. If there are more, we can only wait for the caravan to come back from Fangshi next month to restock."

"Old man, are you trying to frame me! How can someone exchange ten bottles at a time, even if they can really save so many family contributions, how can they still use Qi Buqi pills!"

Bai Wei couldn't hold his breath, and started to shout.

"Little brother, don't be rude. Ten bottles of Qi Buqi Pills...Grandpa Mo, the person who exchanged it is Bai Zichen?"

Bai Ling first reprimanded Bai Wei, thought for a while, and thought of a person whom he hadn't heard from for a long time.

He seems to be the only monk in the clan who has made enough contributions and has sufficient demand for Buqi Pills.

The old man ignored him, unfolded the bamboo chair, lay down on it, and covered his face with the scroll.

"Sister, that kid Bai Zichen changed so many qi pills all at once. Could it be that he wants to catch up? But judging from his cultivation speed over the past few years, it's obvious that he has overdrawn his potential ahead of time. Maybe he'll have to wait another two years before he can be killed." I am equal to the cultivation!"

Bai Wei has never had a good sense of Bai Zichen, and now that he has been preemptively exchanged for the Buqi Pill, the disgust in his heart has risen again.

How much of this disgust is because of Bai Ling, and how much is because of the resentment caused by the feeling that his opportunity was taken away by Bai Zichen back then, only Bai Wei himself knows.

A pigeon fluttered its wings and landed on Bai Ling's shoulder. After feeding a few grains of spiritual rice, she untied a note from the pigeon's feet.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

"Master said in the letter that the patriarch Fei Jian passed on the letter, and Bai Zichen and I will be the family's spirit guides this year."

The two things collided together, and they were both related to Bai Zichen, which caused a ripple in Bai Ling's calm heart.

The somewhat blurred figure of the young disciple who overwhelmed the sect and the young disciples of the major families in the Five Sacred Mountains Temple seemed to be vivid and clear again.
