"It's my first time going down the mountain. I want to be more prepared."
Xu Taiping smiled sheepishly.
Zhao Linglong also chuckled when she heard this.
"Relax. Although there are evil spirits and ghosts at the foot of the mountain, most evil spirits and ghosts can be kept away with a 'burning lantern'. As for the monsters, most of them hide in the mountains and practice secretly. If you don't provoke them, they will
It won’t come out.”
Qingxiao patted Xu Taiping on the shoulder.
"Take it."
Then, he handed several talismans to Xu Taiping.
"Senior brother, you don't have to spend any money. It's just an escort mission, so you don't need so many talismans." .??.
Xu Taiping waved his hands repeatedly.
He could sense that the talismans in the hands of Senior Brother Qingxiao had powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, at least the talismans of the middle and upper grades of the Huang rank, and even the Xuan grade talismans.
"Taiping, take it, our Seventh Summit will give a few talismans to every disciple who comes down the mountain."
As Zhao Linglong spoke, she secretly winked at Qingxiao.
"Oh, yes, this is our practice at the Seventh Peak."
Qingxiao immediately understood and stuffed those talismans into Xu Taiping's arms.
How could Zhao Linglong deceive Xu Taiping with such lame lies?
But seeing that the two of them were really doing it for his own good, he was moved and accepted the talismans without rejecting them.
"Thank you, senior brother, thank you, senior sister. This time we go down the mountain in peace, and we will definitely not disgrace the reputation of the Seventh Peak."
Xu Taiping said solemnly.
"How much is the reputation of the Seventh Peak worth? Your first priority is to protect yourself. As for this sect's training, you must do what you can. Even if you fail once, there will be another time."
Zhao Linglong corrected Xu Taiping.
"good."
Xu Taiping smiled and nodded.
He naturally knew this, but if the disciples in the peak failed in their missions continuously, the share of the Seventh Peak's annual income from elixirs and elixirs would also be reduced.
r
On the other hand, if more tasks are completed, the number of elixirs and elixirs available to the Seventh Peak will increase.
When Zhao Linglong and Qingxiao started to remind Xu Taiping of some things to pay attention to, an old man in commoner clothes ran over from the entrance of the Cloud Climbing Platform at a fast pace.
"Eighth Junior Brother? What is he doing here?"
Zhao Linglong said a little surprised.
"Junior brother?"
Xu Taiping glanced at Zhao Linglong, and then at the old man, with a look of confusion on his face.
"The eighth junior brother's name is Wu Liang. Like you, he also came up from the mountain. However, he was already over fifty when he participated in the Seven Peaks Competition. At that time, the peaks were unwilling to choose him. Master couldn't see it easily, so he was selected.
The seventh peak of income.”
Qingxiao explained to Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping understood immediately.
During the time when he was recovering from his injuries, he had heard about this senior brother Wu Liang from his senior sister Zhao Linglong.
"This is our junior brother Taiping, right?"
After arriving in front of a few people, Wu Liang looked at Xu Taiping with a smile on his face.
Although Wu Liang was only wearing cloth clothes, he was clean, his hair and beard were neatly trimmed, and he gave off an air of elegance.
"I have met Senior Brother Wu Liang in Taiping."
Xu Taiping immediately bowed his hands and said politely.
"No need to be so polite."
Wu Liang lifted Xu Taiping's hand.
"Taiping, are you going to escort the princess of White Tree Kingdom to Wujiu Kingdom?"
He then asked Xu Taiping.
"Yes."
Xu Taiping nodded.
"My hometown happens to be in the Black Eagle Country. Before I came to the mountain, I ran a small gang in the Black Eagle Country. If
Taiping, you are in trouble in Wujiu Kingdom. You can give this bag to the beggar on the roadside, and someone will come to help Taiping when the time comes."
As Wu Liang spoke, he handed Xu Taiping a cloth bag full of patches.
"Thank you, senior brother."
Xu Taiping immediately thanked him.
He took a closer look at the bag and found that on the mouth of the seemingly tattered bag, there was a poem embroidered with gold thread: "Thousands of gold have been scattered before the hands are tied, and the wind and wine will not make you feel lonely."
And this bag is heavy and bulging.
When I opened it, I found a bag full of gold.
"Senior brother, you..."
"Junior brother, Shanxia doesn't recognize merit, so bring some gold and silver to help you do things."
Xu Taiping was about to ask, but was interrupted by Senior Brother Wu Liang with a smile.
"Lao Ba, you are sending gold and tokens. Do you have something to ask your junior brother to do?"
Zhao Linglong smiled and patted Wu Liang on the shoulder.
"I can hide nothing from you, senior sister."
Wu Liang scratched his head and smiled at Zhao Linglong with a flattering expression.
"Eighth Junior Brother, Taiping is coming down the mountain for the first time, please don't cause trouble for him."
Qing Xiao glared at Wu Liang.
"No, no, no, I just want Taiping to send a message to my former subordinates, telling them that I hid the things they are looking for in the cellar of Yangmingshan."
Wu Liang waved his hands in panic.
"what?"
Zhao Linglong asked Wu Liang curiously.
"The leader of our gang has a token of merit and a few secrets of secret skills. I was in such a hurry when I went up the mountain that I didn't have time to explain these things to them."
Wu Liang was a little embarrassed and smiled.
"You have left behind the leader's tokens and the secrets of the sect's secrets. Are you sure? What kind of help do you have?"
Is Pie still there?”
Zhao Linglong looked at Wu Liang in disbelief.
"So, as soon as I heard that Taiping was going to the Black Eagle Country, I rushed over right away."
Wu Liang scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Brother Wu, if you just want to send a message, I can do it for you."
Xu Taiping thought for a while and finally agreed.
"Act according to your ability. Your mission is important. One year on the mountain and three years on the mountain. It has been almost ten years since he came to Yunlu Mountain. What kind of sect he is, he may still be there or not."
Qingxiao shook his head and said.
"Yes, yes, yes, Taiping, you do what you can."
Wu Liang nodded repeatedly.
He had no intention of forcing Xu Taiping to do it. He seemed to be just following fate and doing his best.
"Okay senior brother."
Xu Taiping nodded.
For him, the training mission at the foot of the mountain is naturally more important.
As for the matter of one year on the mountain and three years on the mountain, he had already known about it a long time ago, so he was not too surprised.
"If you think about it, it's been almost ten years since I left Qingniu Village. I don't know if my second uncle and the others are still in Qingniu Village."
He only sighed a little in his heart.
"Hey!..."
After a few people chatted for a few more words, a sound of cranes came from the horizon.
Then, a very huge crane flew from the sky and landed directly on the cloud platform.
"Xu Taiping, the time has come. It's time to leave and go down the mountain."
The crane shouted to Xu Taiping in a cold and arrogant female voice.
"Thank you, elder, for your guidance."
Xu Taiping cupped his hands at the crane.
There are three golden rings around the neck of this crane, indicating that his status should be equivalent to that of an ordinary elder in the sect, and his strength is at least the level of a demon king.
