The cannon fodder female partner becomes a god by practicing involution

Chapter 13 Dongqi Town

As one of the three super sects in the Lingyun world, Taisheng Sect has countless affiliated forces.

These affiliated sects include small sects and immortal cultivating families. Every year, they submit a certain amount of spiritual stones or heavenly materials and earthly treasures to the Taisheng Sect in order to seek the sect's protection.

This sect mission comes from a small immortal cultivating family.

The mission revealed that the town where the Lan clan is located has been seriously haunted recently. The clan leader sent monks to investigate many times, but with no results. People in the town were panicked. In order to calm down the trouble as soon as possible, they had to go to the sect for help.

The Lan clan was once glorious many years ago, but it has long since declined. Although it still submits spiritual stones to the sect every year, the amount is very small. The reason is that the clan is in a state of insecurity and lacks resources.

Taisheng Sect's rules since ancient times, the amount of tribute paid by affiliated forces every year determines the level of cultivation of the monks sent to help when they ask for help. In the case of the Lan clan, they can only send Qi refining monks.

Although it sounds a bit unhuman, in a world where the jungle is strong and the strong eat the strong, this is the law of survival.

In this mission, the five people who take it will each get a protective teleportation talisman issued by the sect. If they encounter a life-threatening situation, the protective teleportation talisman will be automatically activated and bring the person back to the sect.

Of course, if no danger occurs, and the task is handed over after returning, the amulet must be returned to the sect. This talisman is a short-distance directional teleportation. It will automatically expire when it leaves the designated range, and it is useless to keep it.

After understanding the contents of the task in detail, Shen Qingluo and Yao Molian briefly discussed it and finally decided to accept it.

After they agreed, the three people who came to invite Meng Zirui, Wang Fang, and Zhao Yanran were obviously relieved.

This is not because the three of them have any conspiracy, but because they have no idea about the task. Ghosts are most afraid of thunder. Yao Molian is the only Leilinggen monk in the outer sect. With her joining, the probability of solving the problem will be high. It will be much bigger.

Speaking of which, when this task was updated at the beginning of the month, they managed to get it with great difficulty. Because the contribution points were very high, each person could get a hundred points after completion.

Compared with other tasks with single-digit contribution points, it is really conspicuous.

For Shen Qingluo, one hundred contribution points was not much. The main reason why she chose to take it was because she received a system prompt: Go to the Lan clan and start a side mission.

The prompt was only this short sentence, and Shen Qingluo couldn't guess what the branch plot was.

As for Yao Molian, he purely regarded this mission trip as a small experience.

After the five people discussed it, they decided to set off at six o'clock tomorrow.

Returning to the cave, Shen Qingluo began to inquire about the system.

"Are there any other tips for this side mission?"

"It will be automatically triggered when the host goes to the town where the Lan clan is located."

"Can't you say it now? I'd better be prepared."

"No, after the side mission is triggered, the system will give some points and mall lottery opportunities based on the host's performance."

"Ok."

Shen Qingluo didn't ask any more questions and started meditating all night.

At six o'clock on the second day, the five people gathered together, led by Meng Zirui, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and headed for the Lan clan.

The town where the Lan clan is located is called Dongqi, where immortal cultivators and mortals live together.

A stream runs through the town and circles in the center. The Blue Clan is located in a giant water circle surrounded by the stream.

The moment he entered the town, Shen Qingluo received a notification tone from the system.

"There is indeed a fierce ghost causing trouble in Dongqi Town. This ghost has been given some opportunities and is very good at hiding. Please find the host. You can choose to save it or eliminate it, and restore peace to Dongqi Town."

After a person dies, those with extremely strong obsessions will remain in the human world if they do not want to be reincarnated. If they can withstand the soul-killing light of the first seven days when the sun rises, they will turn into ghosts, otherwise they will disappear into ashes.

There are four levels of fierce ghosts: white, gray, red, and green. Those who reach the level of blue are the ghost kings.

In the great world of Lingyun, the Taoist sect is prosperous, and all kinds of ghosts are suppressed. The strength of the ghost king in green is only equivalent to that of a monk at the golden elixir stage. The red-clothed fierce ghosts are equivalent to the foundation-building stage, the gray-clothed ones are equivalent to the Qi-refining stage, and the white-clothed ones can be dealt with by mortals with stronger yang energy.

Shen Qingluo asked the system with his consciousness: "What is the level of the ghosts in Dongqi Town?"

"Host, wait a minute, let me check. Well, I was promoted last night and became red. Before, I was gray with red. But don't worry. Among the five of you, there is one who specializes in thunder and will not do anything. What’s the problem?”

"Stop! Don't say that. The more certain you are about something, the more trouble will happen."

"Well, okay, host, you can do whatever you want. Just pay attention to your own safety. I'll hide first."

At the entrance of the Lan clan, there were two monks wearing light blue robes guarding the entrance. After Meng Zirui revealed his identity, one of them left and returned soon, followed by an old man with white beard and hair and several middle-aged people with obvious tired looks. .

"Old Lan He, please welcome the Immortal of the Sect."

Although he obviously has foundation-building skills, he treats the five Qi-refining monks with great respect.

Shen Qingluo knew very well that the leader of the Lan clan was not worshiping the five of them, but the Taisheng Sect who represented them behind them.

It is said that it is easy to enjoy the shade when leaning against a big tree. Although it is not appropriate to use it here, she still couldn't help feeling that a strong background can really bring a lot of convenience.

Facing the foundation-building cultivator, the group of five people did not show their support and turned sideways to avoid Quanli.

Meng Zirui bowed to the old man and said, "Clan Chief Lan, we are here to receive a mission from the sect. This trip is to solve the problem of haunting in the town."

"I understand that the five immortals have had a hard time coming all the way. You can go to the guest room to rest for a while. I will order someone to prepare some spiritual meals."

"Clan Chief Lan, you don't have to be polite. If the haunting is delayed for one more day, the town will not be peaceful. We are ready to start the matter immediately. Chief Lao Lan will tell you the details."

Lan He sighed softly, "The thing is like this. About three months ago, one day, a family named Liu in the east of the town came to the clan to ask for help, saying that their home was haunted. One of the elders was frightened and went to the scene. After hearing this, the old man sent a tribesman to go there, but nothing was found out. Not to mention the evil ghosts there, there was not even any Yin Qi.

But who would have expected that not long after, people in the town began to come to ask for help one after another, saying that they had encountered a fierce ghost. The old man sent his tribe again to investigate, but still found nothing. Considering that no more lives were lost, the old man did not pay attention to this matter. Until the past few days, People disappeared one after another in the town, and there were more and more rumors of hauntings. The old man went to check everywhere in person, but still couldn't find anything, so he asked Shang Zong for help. "

Meng Zirui frowned after hearing this, "There was no mention of anyone missing in the mission."

"Excuse me, Immortal. Ever since I learned that someone was missing in the town, I sent the younger members of the clan out to search day and night. When I asked for help from the sect, the sent clan members had not returned yet. I didn't know what the outcome would be, so I skipped it. This matter."

In fact, when Lan He asked for help from the Taisheng Sect, he had already expected that the person coming would be a Qi Refining monk, so he made the task as simple as possible to prevent the person coming from being afraid and giving up halfway.

Everyone present had guessed what he was thinking, but no one could tell.

If he considered it from the perspective of the Lan family, Shen Qingluo could understand the other party's approach, but he did not agree with it.

Concealing important information, if something happens to the disciples of the sect who come here, the consequences will not be something they can afford.

Considering it from our own perspective, we can say that we are disgusted with this approach.

At this time, Meng Zirui turned to look at his four fellow disciples, "My idea is to search the entire perimeter of Dongqi Town from the outside to the inside. What do you think?"

Wang Fang and Zhao Yanran remained silent and only nodded to express their approval of the proposal.

Yao Molian had a different view, "Why don't you go to the house that was haunted first and check it out?"

"Senior Sister Yao and I have the same idea." It was Shen Qingluo who spoke this time.

Meng Zirui simply suggested: "Why don't we split up and act separately? No matter which party discovers the situation, they will contact each other immediately using transmission notes. Dongqi Town is not big and they will be able to meet up soon."

Yao Molian nodded, "Okay, I happened to bring the transmission talisman."

Shen Qingluo was a little hesitant. Li Gui was in red, so it would be dangerous to move separately, but she couldn't say it directly, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain how she knew. After thinking about it, she said euphemistically: "What if the Li Gui in Dongqi Town is of a higher level?" high"

Meng Zirui waved his hand and said, "Whether there is a powerful ghost or not, I can't decide. Let's work separately to save time. Anyway, we all have the protective teleportation talisman given by the sect, so our lives will not be in danger."
