Picking up an old shoe filled with mud from the place where the Drowned Ghost disappeared, he looked forward and could already see the stone wall. It seemed that there was nothing else behind it.
The Drowned Man's Old Shoes, quest item
Daoist Zhang's task is indeed not simple. These ghosts are not weak. If Ruoshui's skills were not high, there were many magic weapons, and he could restrain their attributes, it would be difficult for one person to complete this task.
No matter how many levels higher
After killing the three ghosts, his good deeds increased a lot. Ruoshui was satisfied and planned to return. However, when he walked to the area where the hanging ghosts were haunted, he actually saw a player using an octagonal box to capture the floating will-o'-the-wisps.
Yeah, she’s actually a female gamer
The girl was startled when she saw a person coming out of the depths of the cave. The movements of her hands slowed down, and several groups of will-o'-the-wisps that were attracted by the red divine light emitted from the box in the girl's hand took the opportunity to escape and hid in the cave.
Went deep into the cave
"Hello" is the first player he has come into close contact with after entering the game, and he is also a female player with a pretty decent appearance. Of course Ruoshui has to show off his masculine demeanor and say hello.
"Hello" the girl hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Did you come out of it?"
"Well, if you read correctly, I came out of the hole."
The girl who realized what she said was wrong blushed, and then explained: "I didn't mean that, I meant, there are several ghosts inside, it's very dangerous, you actually broke in alone."
"Oh, you're saying that since you know those innocent souls so clearly, they probably came to do Taoist Zhang's mission?"
"It turns out you also accepted that mission. I've come here to fight many times, but unfortunately I can't beat the Hanged Man. I've recently upgraded a few levels. I originally wanted to try to see if I could complete this mission, but I found out when I got here.
I don’t know where the dead ghost has gone, but I just took this opportunity to collect some will-o'-the-wisps and go back." The girl told Ruoshui everything about herself without any thought.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I've already killed those three ghosts." Seeing the disbelief in the girl's eyes, Ruoshui took out the hemp rope used to hang the ghosts and waved it in front of the girl.
The girl was surprised and said: "Did you really kill everyone?"
"Yeah, I don't know if these ghosts will spawn. If I kill them once, you won't be able to complete the mission."
I have to say that this little girl is still very innocent, and Ruoshui doesn't want to cause her to fail in her mission.
"It doesn't matter. Didn't you get the mission items? As long as we team up and deliver them, I can complete the mission."
Although she worked hard to complete the task, she can get her good deeds and rewards for free as long as she forms a team. This makes people feel a little unhappy, but it is still a solution that has the best of both worlds.
Ruoshui thought for a moment and was about to agree. Seeing that Ruoshui didn't speak, the girl thought he disagreed and added, "And I have clues about the follow-up mission. If you hand in the mission with me, you can also pick it up from Taoist Zhang."
What about the follow-up tasks?
Is there such a good thing? If Shui Shui agrees smoothly, he would be a fool if he doesn’t take advantage of it.
The system prompts that the little girl invites you to join the team. Please choose to agree or reject.
"Is this a nickname or a name? Haha!" After agreeing to form a team, Ruoshui couldn't help but express his opinion on the girl's name.
The little girl smiled and explained: "My friends usually call me that, so when I first created the character, I gave it such a name."
After joining the team, Ruoshui discovered that the little girl's level was actually two levels higher than his own, with as many as forty-level two.
"So you are only at level 40. You are so powerful at level 40. You are amazing." The little girl noticed Ruoshui's level and immediately expressed her admiration for Ruoshui.
"Good luck, just good luck," Ruoshui laughed and started to change the subject, "Your magic weapon is also very powerful. What is this box for? You are a little girl, why are you catching these will-o'-the-wisps?"
The little girl was very surprised and said: "Don't you know? These will-o'-the-wisps are hard to come across, but they have a wide range of uses. They can be sold to magic players to make magic weapons or flying swords. Some monsters also use them to polish their inner elixirs.
The prices sold at the auction house were very high. If I hadn’t recently obtained this heart box from Sister Mood, I wouldn’t have been able to catch these things even without the threat of being hanged.”
"I'm just saying, how can a girl have the courage to catch these will-o'-the-wisps? It turns out that these little things are so useful." Ruoshui's eyes suddenly sparkled, "It's still early anyway, I'll catch some to change money."
"Ah? You want to arrest me too, but..."
"But what?"
"How are you going to catch them? These will-o'-the-wisps are incorporeal. Otherwise, if I have the heart box, there is nothing I can do to catch them. We are not a demon race, and we don't know magic, so how can we catch them?" He said,
The little girl showed Ruoshui the properties of the octagonal treasure box in her hand.
Heart Box, a third-level capture magic weapon. After inputting mana, you can capture unowned treasures and various special items. The success rate of capturing depends on the level of the items. The capture level cannot exceed level five at most.
I was speechless. Ruoshui originally thought that he had defensive magic weapons and Yin Lei, and he was already the kind of person who looked like a mist on his ancestral grave. He didn't expect that the luck and character of the guy in front of him were so good that even if his ancestral grave was on fire, he had to know the capture type.
The magic weapon is definitely the best among the magic weapons of the same class. It may not be as powerful as other magic weapons, but it has so many uses that it is difficult to count. It is the kind of top-notch equipment that is necessary for masters.
Third-level capture magic weapons, in this current game stage where most players are still between level 40 and 60, are no less rare than fifth-level magic weapons. "This is what the prodigal son threw to the little girl."
!Why don't you throw two to me!" Ruoshui thought to himself
However, we still need to educate the little girl on how to keep our wealth secret. If you show something like this to others casually, doesn’t it make it clear that people will attack you? Even Ruoshui, when he saw the properties of the item, he had a feeling of murder and hiding.
Treasure's impulse
"Well, little girl, next time remember not to show the magic weapon to others casually. It can easily lead to criminal cases."
"Yes, Sister Mood said the same thing, but I can't always remember..." the little girl said embarrassedly
Having said that, although Ruoshui doesn't have a magic weapon to capture, the little girl does, so the "money-catching plan" is still feasible.
But the little girl's words woke up Ruoshui's dream of getting rich again, "But this box is very labor-intensive to use. I don't have enough elixirs. I probably won't be able to hold on for long. I can catch a dozen or so at most."
"
Well, this is the first time I’ve seen a player who doesn’t even bring enough elixirs for high-level tasks—Ruoshui can’t be counted among them, because this guy has never seen what elixirs look like in the game.
Reluctantly putting away her dream of getting rich overnight, Ruoshui had no choice but to watch the little girl collect will-o'-the-wisps with the pill heart box. She did not leave the cave with satisfaction until all the pills to replenish her mana were used up.
In this short time, the little girl caught more than forty will-o'-the-wisps, plus the dozens she had caught before seeing Ruoshui, a total of no less than a hundred will-o'-the-wisps were caught. These will-o'-the-wisps were put into the box.
It has become a material that can be placed in the inventory
Ghost phosphorus: a powder rich in yin energy that emits blue light
There are also a few top-quality goods that are of particularly good quality.
Bai Gugui Phosphorus: A powder with abundant Yin energy and emitting blue light.
The little girl looked at her inventory with satisfaction, briefly calculated the harvest, and then clapped her hands and said happily: "Great, these ghost phosphorus can be sold for at least one hundred taels of gold. The cassock that the little bald man saw two days ago finally has money.
Bought”
In an instant, Ruoshui had the urge to kill and rob money again. One hundred taels of gold. If this was a task, he didn't know if he would have to do it for a year. But he didn't expect that a translucent box suddenly appeared in front of him.
The little girl generously opened the transaction column, placed no less than fifty pieces of ghost phosphorus on it, and then clicked the transaction button.
Ruoshui, who was completely unaware of how shameless his behavior was, clicked the confirmation button without hesitation. Fifty taels of gold was a huge amount of wealth that he simply could not refuse now, and he had already practiced the Shameless Thick Skin Magic Art to the extreme. What he was thinking now
Yes, do you want to borrow the heart box and catch some will-o'-the-wisps to sell for money?
Forget it, the little girl doesn't have any scheming ideas, and she won't lend the best equipment to someone she just met. She should wait until the next time she finds a way to catch the will-o'-the-wisp.
After walking out of the cave, the two of them each flew back to the ruined temple with a sword light. The light blue and green sword light of the little girl was obviously a third-level thing. It probably had a speed bonus. It flew a few minutes faster than the flying crystal, but in terms of swordsmanship
Ruoshui's level of cultivation was obviously higher, so he flew neck and neck.
After the sword light fell, the little girl said to Ruoshui: "When I talk to Taoist Zhang later, I will speak. All you need to do is give him the quest items. I have other quest items that can trigger subsequent quests."
"Don't bother me. I'll give you the mission items and you'll be responsible for them." Ruoshui was probably affected by the little girl's generous behavior just now. He also became heroic and handed her all three pieces of rags he had worked so hard for.
As usual, Lao Zhang blurted out a string of compliments when meeting, but I don't know if it was because of the presence of a girl, but he didn't use idioms randomly.
The little girl handed the three mission items to Lao Zhang and had a long conversation about how much danger the two of them had taken to solve the noise pollution problem near Comrade Lao Zhang's house, and made Comrade Lao Zhang deeply feel that the two of them were doing it for his own good.
The mission was life-and-death, and he went through all the hardships. What a caring and public-minded good young man in the new era, so he burst out with strong gratitude. In order to express his gratitude to his two friends for their selfless help, Lao Zhang decided to take out the money he had packed at the bottom of the box.
Good things for both of you
So the little girl got a soul-expelling bell, and Ruoshui also got a third-level peach wood sword.
Exorcist Bell: A rare item. After wearing it, you can avoid active attacks by ghosts below level 60.
Peach wood sword: third-level flying sword, carved from century-old peach wood, with increased power against monsters and ghosts.
"With the exorcism bell, it is estimated that all the will-o'-the-wisps in the seaside caves will become the pockets of the little girl, my gold!" Ruoshui thought sadly and angrily, "Is it possible that you have to imitate the pretty boy and get rich with a rich woman?
