As soon as he thought about it, he called Mo Xiaocong directly to his courtyard, pretending to be ashamed and said with a grimace: "Cousin, you see, I am penniless now. I plan to go to the door to take on a few tasks to earn some money."
Get some spirit stones, but... I offended Master Uncle Ma badly last time, look... can you go with me and help say a good word in front of Master Master Ma?"
When Mo Xiaocong heard this, he immediately agreed, patting his chest and promising: "Cousin, this matter is all mine. Uncle Ma has always been a generous and kind man, and he will not hold grudges in his heart. Let's go!"
"Brewed, generous and kind? This word can also be used for him!" Zhang Yun cursed in his heart, but with a grimace and pretending to be in pain, he took out ten high-grade spiritual stones with his right hand, and suddenly there was a crisp "pop" sound.
He pretended to be careless while taking out something, and took out a top-quality spiritual stone that was filled with spiritual energy from Mi's Weapon Refining Shop and dropped it on the ground. He then picked it up hurriedly and put it in his arms.
Although he put away the top-grade spiritual stones very quickly, Mo Xiaocong had already seen them all. First, there was a flash of fire in his eyes, and then he secretly guessed with a suspicious look on his face: "Isn't this kid saying that he is incompetent?"
Did he get any money? But how to explain this top-quality spiritual stone? Did he see something? He deliberately acted like he had no money to show others!..."
Zhang Yun pretended that nothing had happened, handed ten high-grade spiritual stones to Mo Xiaocong and said: "Cousin, please help me say a good word in front of Uncle Ma. If he is not angry, I will go in."
Mo Xiaocong's thoughts were interrupted. When he saw the spirit stone handed to him, he immediately looked happy, but pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Cousin, what are you doing? Uncle Ma never accepts bribes. You are like this
Aren’t you making things difficult for me?”
"Brother just wants to express a little filial piety, can't my cousin help me do it?" Zhang Yun said, pretending to be slightly angry.
But in his heart, he was very disapproving and said: "Although it is only ten spiritual stones, I don't want to waste it easily. It is only temporarily stored now! But this can have the effect of attracting others. Imagine putting real money in it."
Being in front of a person can easily stimulate human greed."
"Before, whether Xiao Rang or the sect master suppressed Ma Sanyuan's punishment on him, it was very likely that he would doubt his identity. Before it was implemented, he would have scruples about doing anything to him. In addition, he previously thought that he
Having lost all his wealth, these factors will have an impact on his decision. Now that Mo Xiaocong sees that top-grade spiritual stone, and the temptation of these ten high-grade spiritual stones, it will easily arouse his murderous intention towards him.
.”
The two of them walked together to the small courtyard where Ma Sanyuan worked. Mo Xiaocong was very hesitant along the way. After several years of observation, no matter how stupid he was, he would still see some clues. Every time the newcomer had a large number of spiritual stones,
Or tell Uncle Ma about the high-level treasure, and the newcomer will either lose his life or be silenced in the next sect mission.
"Although Xiaoyun is a fake cousin, he is really good to me! Should I remind him and ask him to cancel his sect mission?...Should I see that top-quality spiritual stone?
Then, tell Master Ma about all your suspicions about him?..."
Mo Xiaocong was struggling fiercely in his heart. He kept talking to Zhang Yun several times, but he didn't say anything until he entered Ma Sanyuan Courtyard.
Zhang Yun saw everything in his eyes, like a bright mirror in his heart, and deliberately pretended to walk with his head down, not giving him a chance to remind him verbally, but he felt a good impression of Mo Xiaocong in his heart, and said to himself: "If this guy feels a little guilty,
If I have no feelings at all, then I must be in cahoots with Ma Sanyuan. Then after I kill Ma Sanyuan, I will definitely try to get rid of him. Looking at the situation now, although he has vaguely guessed some inside stories, his nature is not bad.
, just leave him alive!"
Mo Xiaocong slowly walked into Ma Sanyuan's room, but he didn't know that he had hesitated to speak just now, which inadvertently saved his life.
But when he saw Ma Sanyuan, he immediately presented him with ten high-grade spiritual stones and explained his intention. Then in Ma Sanyuan's soft and loving words, he immediately told Zhang Yun what he had decided to hide before entering.
Said it out.
Seeing the murderous intent that flashed unintentionally in Ma Sanyuan's eyes, Mo Xiaocong couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and secretly prayed: "Cousin, I'm sorry, I really can't deceive Uncle Ma. I hope you won't blame me under Jiuquan."
To me!"
Zhang Yun saw Mo Xiaocong walking out with his head lowered, his eyes flickering, not daring to look at him, and he immediately understood that the first step of his plan was successful.
Entering Ma Sanyuan's house, Zhang Yun first solemnly apologized: "Uncle Ma, I've done something wrong, please forgive me!"
Ma Sanyuan laughed, looking like a kind elder, waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "It's all in the past, uncle, how can I care about you juniors? I was also angry at that time, and I spoke a little too much.
Don’t forget it in your heart...
Now that they had finished talking in a few words, the two of them went straight to the topic. Ma Sanyuan then took out a piece of paper filled with sect tasks and asked him to choose:
Fire Cloud Twenty-nine Peak, mining of spiritual stone veins takes half a year, and rewards ten high-grade spiritual stones...
The seventy-six peaks of Fire Cloud mine mithril, the time limit is one year, and the reward is twenty-five pieces of high-grade spiritual stones...
On the edge of the bitter cold land in the north, hunt spiritual beasts to obtain spiritual beast materials, return to the sect to exchange for corresponding spiritual stones, one year of experience, and five high-grade spiritual stones as a subsidy...
Zhang Yun read all the sect missions in the entire article. Obviously they are missions that last too long and can be participated by most people. Moreover, the spiritual stones obtained from the missions are limited, so it is difficult for Uncle Ma to create something to kill him.
The opportunities, I believe, should be more than these.
As soon as he thought about it, he said with a grimace: "Uncle Ma, I am really inconvenient now. I want to do some tasks that are short in time and can earn more spiritual stones. I wonder if Uncle Ma can be accommodating..."
Ma Sanyuan was secretly happy in his heart, but he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Master nephew, to tell you the truth, I do have some tasks similar to what you mentioned here, but they are too dangerous. With your current cultivation level,
Since it’s simply impossible to do it, I think you’d better forget it!”
Zhang Yun looked happy when he heard this, and said firmly: "There is no way to catch the tiger's cubs unless you enter the tiger's den. Uncle Master, you are kind and generous, please show me those tasks?"
Zhang Yun endured the disgust in his heart and slapped Ma Sanyuan in the face against his will.
"Martial nephew, you should think about it again!" Ma Sanyuan pretended to dissuade him, but he had already handed another task list to Zhang Yun.
The first line of the task list is a row of big red characters: Sect Danger Task List: Be cautious! When you accept the task, you must sign a life and death certificate, and you are responsible for your life and death!
Zhang Yun secretly laughed in his heart: "It turns out that Ma Sanyuan has such a skill! That means that if you sign this life and death certificate, you can let him be slaughtered! But the first rule of the sect is to extract the souls of those who kill each other in the same sect.
Soul, never reincarnated... Presumably Ma Sanyuan's identity as the deacon should be one of his protective umbrellas! In each sect, the survival of the fittest has always been the rule, and they will not care about the life or death of an ordinary disciple. Ma Sanyuan took advantage of this loophole...
…”
Zhang Yun set his sights on a mission: Thousands of miles away, in the mountains at the junction of the Yuqizong and Baiyimen forces, there is an ancient cave called the Baidu Labyrinth Cave. The roads in the cave are not only as intricate as a maze, but also
It is full of poisons and poisonous insects, and those who enter will die or not...
However, the Baidu Labyrinth Cave is rich in two precious refining materials. One is the rare third-level refining material antler stone; the other is the soul carrier for forging soul treasures, which can also be ranked among the top among similar refining materials.
Ten, called Soul-eating Dew.
It is said that Soul-eating Dew is produced from the buds of a plant called Silkworm Soul-eating Bone-eating Flower deep in the Maze Cave of Hundred Poisons. This flower is extremely poisonous and has simple consciousness. It can actively emit venom to attack approaching creatures and poison them.
Finally, the huge petals are rolled into the flower like a clasp, slowly eating away at the soul and flesh. With the nourishment of a large number of souls and flesh, a drop of soul-eating dew may appear in the newly grown bud...
This mission requires you to enter the depths of the Hundred Poison Maze Cave and collect hundreds of drops of Soul-Eating Dew. You can imagine how dangerous it is!
Zhang Yun looked at this task, and his expression changed several times. In fact, he was really timid, but thinking that he didn't really want to get into collecting herbs, he pretended to think deeply for a long time, and then nodded solemnly and said: "Uncle Ma
, this is it, I really need the mission reward of these eight hundred high-grade spiritual stones!"
Ma Sanyuan looked at him seriously, sighed and nodded: "Since you have decided, I won't say any more. You will sign this life and death certificate, and there is one more thing I need to tell you again.
After receiving a dangerous mission from the sect, if you want to quit halfway, you still need to pay a fine of ten high-grade spiritual stones. This is a rule set by the seniors. It means that disciples who accept dangerous missions are urged to persevere after making a choice.
It’s completed. But you don’t have to worry about this. I won’t take advantage of your junior for the ten high-grade spiritual stones you asked Xiao Cong to bring just now. If you regret it, just treat it as the fine you paid!”
Zhang Yun knew how the other party could be so kind. These words were clearly cutting off his own path. If he hadn't said it, he would have considered the danger after returning, or he would have chosen to quit after encountering danger during the execution of the mission. There is nothing wrong with him.
.But he said on the spot that as long as he didn't turn down the task now, he would not give up halfway anyway. It would be a trivial matter to come back and be ridiculed by him, but if it affects his Taoist heart, the gain will outweigh the loss!
Zhang Yun did not hesitate to sign Zhang Xiaoyun's name on the life and death certificate that Ma Sanyuan had filled in, and received the mission badge. As long as he was prepared, he could set off on the Purple Crown Fire Crane at any time.
He also received a crystal ball with a map stored in it from Ma Sanyuan. After making sure to set off early the next morning, he said goodbye to the two of them and left. As soon as he left the door, he secretly released Xiao Kong and asked him to keep an eye on Ma Sanyuan.
, he returned to his residence to pack his things.
