Chapter 14

"Old woman, I'm back!" Xia Zhanyan suddenly felt a little more confident in speaking with those guys in his pocket.

"What are you screaming and screaming in the middle of the night!" The old woman sleepily got up from the bed made of hay, a few straws were tied between her gray and fluffy hair, her thin face was full of tiredness, and her cloudy eyes were narrowed into slits. , It seems that the whole person is more and more disabled.

The moonlight filled the entire ruined temple through the old wooden windows, illuminating the dilapidated Buddha statue in the middle of the temple very clearly.The expression of sadness and joy, the peeling red paint on the forehead, the mottled cheeks, the dilapidated Buddha statue under the moonlight looked at the old and the young in the hall with a trace of pity.

Xia Zhanyan smiled brightly, his eyes sparkled with starlight, as if he had received some great benefits, he looked at the old beggar with great pride.

"I brought back what you asked for!" She patted the Qiankun bag on her waist, and raised her chin towards the old beggar, like a proud cat.

"You're going to die, you woke me up in the middle of the night just because of this little shit?" The old beggar didn't give Xia Zhanyan the surprise and eager answer she imagined, but raised her hand and slapped Xia Zhanyan on the head hard, wrinkled all over His old face was extremely angry.

little shit...

Xia Zhanyan thought that he had spent a lot of effort and had to go through a lifetime of hardships to get the result. The Zhuanyan Grass King was described as a trivial matter by the old beggar, and the feeling of aggrieved spread from the bottom of his heart. .

"Here you are!" She took out the black ice box containing King Yancao and threw it to the old beggar.

Although he is an intelligent NPC, in Xia Zhanyan's private heart, he is no longer in the same mood when facing an NPC.

She was angry from the bottom of her heart, the old beggar was too ruthless, even though she was just an NPC, after getting along for a long time, she had very little contact with real players, and almost regarded the old beggar as the only friend in the game.

The old beggar ignored her eldest lady's temper, swept the box to the side of the haystack with her feet, then grabbed the neckline tightly, and lay down with her eyes closed.

This damned old beggar.What about mission rewards?

Xia Zhanyan had the urge to rush up and bite the old beggar to wake her up. The joy she had enjoyed in the Poison Dragon Pool earlier was completely wiped out by such a rush. Can't get out.

Think about it carefully, the task given by the old beggar is just a green task, and only someone like her who has never really understood the game will be so competitive, even if she has gone through a lot of hard work to finally get this Zhuanyan grass , for the old beggar, it is just a prop for ordinary tasks, there is no difference.

What she couldn't think about was just because she couldn't pass her own test.I always think about how much hard work I have put in, and how much reward I should get, so facing the indifference of the old beggar woman, I feel that all my hard work has turned into grievances, but when I think about it carefully, it is only a green task, and there is nothing worthy of earth-shattering Things, although the old beggar's reaction was heartless, it was normal.

Taking a deep breath, most of the anger in her heart has gone, but there are still some grievances, and her mood is still uneven. After thinking about it, she walked outside the temple.

The old beggar woman lying on the haystack suddenly opened her eyes, looked at Xia Zhanyan's back, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and then closed it again.

The moon hangs high outside the temple, and the mountains and forests in the distance are only vaguely black and gray outlines. The surroundings are silent, which makes people gradually calm down.Xia Zhanyan walked to the corner, where a lot of unsplit firewood was piled up.

"Crack, click..." There was a regular sound of chopping firewood, and Xia Zhanyan began to pick up the firewood and chop it methodically.

Simple and boring things can make her calm down slowly and settle her state of mind. Whether it is the thrill of the day, the ecstasy of joy, or the grievance and awkwardness just now, it will smooth out little by little.

The sky gradually turned white amidst her repeated movements.

There is night and day in the game, but the player has no difference between sleeping and not sleeping, so she didn't feel anything after chopping firewood in the middle of the night, but felt that her mood was much calmer, and her spirit was more relaxed, and she didn't know what to do with her hands. Unconsciously become fast.

The last piece of firewood was chopped, and the sky was completely bright.

"Ah—" The old beggar's old cry suddenly came from the temple, and Xia Zhanyan, who was stacking firewood, threw away the firewood in his hand and rushed into the temple in fright.

"What's wrong?" Xia Zhanyan ran into the temple.

The old beggar was holding the opened black ice box in a daze, standing motionless.Her gaze fell firmly on the Zhuyan grass, Xia Zhanyan had never seen that kind of gaze.

His eyes seemed to be resurgent, blazing, sharp, and full of hope.

The bright red Zhuanyan Grass King lay quietly in the black ice box. The four Zhuanyan fruits under the leaves of the grass were crystal clear and glowed with a faint blue light, looking very cute and pleasing.

"Huanyan fruit... I have waited for it! In 600 years, [-] chances for Zhuanyan fruit to ripen, I have finally waited for it!!" the old beggar muttered, eyes fascinated, and suddenly hugged the fruit. Xuan Binghe cried hysterically, just like when we first met outside the tavern.

How is this going?Xia Zhanyan didn't understand why the old beggar suddenly burst into tears holding Zhuanyancao after a night.

Ding-dong-

The system gave a pleasant notification tone, and a message appeared in front of Xia Zhanyan.

[System] Congratulations on overfulfilling the series of tasks of the old beggar in Fulai Town, the dream of the old beggar. The task is completed to a perfect degree, and your experience and comprehension have been greatly improved. You will also receive gifts from the old beggar.

What?Excess?Perfect?Xia Zhanyan looked at the prompt box that popped up and couldn't figure it out. How could the green tasks be divided into completion levels?Shouldn't this happen only for rare tasks above blue?

Xia Zhanyan's mood was fairly peaceful, and she didn't have much expectations.

The quest designer had a more lewd idea, so she couldn't guess what changes this quest would bring, so she could only wait and see.

"Okay, very good, very good!" The old beggar put away her tears, and her old face was full of joy.

"Smelly girl, take it!" The old beggar got a dirty and worn-out cloth bag from nowhere, and stuffed it into Xia Zhanyan's hand.

This is the reward for this mission.

Xia Zhanyan thought in her heart, but there was nothing on her face.

"I'm going to retreat for half a year. This month, you chop ten loads of firewood and carry fifty barrels of water every day. During this six months, you must catch ten rainbow sweetfish, collect the dewdrops on the top leaves of the mountain god tree every morning, and fill this small bottle. Etc. I'm coming out!"

The old beggar spoke quickly, explaining with the attitude of treating an apprentice
What……! ?

Xia Zhanyan's eyes widened as he listened.

She didn't even look at the rewards of the last mission, but this new mission came out, and it was so shocking.

Forget about chopping wood and carrying water, the rainbow sweetfish is a specialty of the Wansui River in the Immortal Valley. The scales of the fish can change color with the light source, and the fish has a strange fragrance, so it is called the rainbow sweetfish.This fish has no other role for players except ornamental value, but the NPC purchase price is very high, because this fish is very difficult to catch, firstly, it is very rare, secondly, its speed is very fast, and thirdly, this fish has certain attacks Power is hard to see, hard to chase and hard to grasp.

As for the mountain god tree, it is the tallest tree in Immortal Valley. Because the tree is already a thousand years old, it is enshrined as a mountain god tree by the townspeople. Light work or climbing with hands and feet is simply fatal, not to mention the dewdrops on the top of the tree.

what is this?She opened the mission book, and the missions on it had been updated. The old beggar series of missions—the tempering of the mind, were still green missions.

Task requirements: meet the requirements of the old beggar within half a year.

Calculated according to the game time, one year is one month in reality, and half a year is about half a month. If she meets the requirements of the old beggar, she cannot meet the requirements of the studio.

What a stupid task!
