After all, Xia Ji was the one who made the image panel for himself. At this time, his mind moved, and soon a line of flashing red letters appeared in his mind.
[Kuroshio Mission 1]: In-depth investigation of abnormal events in the sect.
Difficulty: two point five stars
Summary of the event: In just three months after the destruction of the Court of Gods, the demise of Yaju, and the disappearance of Qiongqi, the entire Yanzhou sect began to erupt into inexplicable large-scale chaos. It seemed to be composed of mostly coincidences, but there was something weird inside. It is suspected to be related to Kuroshio and Qiongqi. A thorough investigation will be conducted within three years.
Mission reward: Take Miaomiao on a trip for three months.
Mission penalty: obliteration.
Of course, this "obliteration" was just for Xia Ji's own entertainment.
But three years, he felt, must be enough. Let alone a thorough investigation, the root of the problem could be directly traced and solved.
As for the "difficulty", he just made an estimate for himself. After all, it was just an "in-depth investigation." During this investigation process, there was almost no situation where enemies could eliminate him and Bai Zhu, but there were also unknown risks. And if you encounter Qiongqi or Kuroshio, there are also great risks, so the rating is 2.5 stars.
He set a difficulty system for himself:
One star means no danger to yourself.
Two stars indicate possible danger.
Samsung products are extremely dangerous and you may be seriously injured if you are not careful.
Four stars means possible death.
Five stars mean death.
…
"The difficulty of this task lies in the collection of information and the non-disclosure of identity. The Luoyue Sect may have deliberately hidden some secrets because they sensed our malice.
Only when the other party completely relaxes his vigilance can he get to the bottom of it and see the truest side.
Since the Kuroshio has undergone great changes, it is necessary to understand their current arrangements. With the presence of White Candle, it can also be clearly compared with the situation in ancient times, so as to know where the changes are. "
After Xia Ji analyzed it, he found Xiao Su and started patching the identity vulnerability.
After all, for the mortal kingdom, it is difficult to check the identity, but for the sect, it is not a very troublesome thing to send disciples to another place to investigate.
After making proper arrangements,
Xia Ji and Bai Zhu set off.
The first step is…
The two pretended to be a Taoist couple, and first went around the western part of Yanzhou. They would do things like visit the mountain gate, and at the same time pass on their identities.
It didn't take long for some sects in the west to know that this pair of Taoists were extremely powerful. They were both at the pinnacle of the Thirteenth Realm. They only had a chance to be punished and could become the best in the Fourteenth Realm.
The reason why there was no information about these two people before was because they usually lived in seclusion in the north and practiced. Xianyun Yehe was used to it, but due to some changes, they had to go south.
It was precisely this change that made the two of them learn from the painful experience and give up their carefree life, and seemed to start thinking about joining the sect.
After all, the world is undergoing great changes and the world is unstable. Rogue cultivators feel insecure outside. Only by joining a sect can one have more ability to protect themselves.
After "hanging out in this area", the identity of the two people does not appear to be out of the ordinary.
Then comes the second step.
During a battle between the Golden Lotus Sect and the Dragon Slayer Temple, the pair of Taoists "accidentally" rescued Mu Sangzi, the great elder of the Dragon Slayer Temple, and then secretly proposed the idea of joining the sect.
Dragon Slayer Temple has always been a well-known and upright sect, and it is also very strict in recruiting people, paying special attention to character.
It's just that when Musangzi saw the two people showing pure white good karma, he didn't hesitate much.
Generally speaking, the character of those who have good deeds will not deteriorate in any way.
In these troubled times, casual cultivators certainly want to join the sect.
However, the sect also wants to recruit powerful casual cultivators to increase the strength of the sect.
It's mutual.
So, Mu Sangzi took Xia Ji and Bai Zhu back to Dragon Slaying Temple and explained the situation to the temple owner.
The viewer first tests his qualifications and strength.
If these two are not good enough, Dragon Slayer Temple will not accept people.
After all, although Zhanlongguan is not the top sect in this one-third acre of land in Qi Country, it is still a large sect that can be ranked in the top ten. Although the number of people in the sect is not as high as the tens of thousands or even dozens of other sects. Thousands of people, but they are all elites who are very good at fighting.
The test results are clear at a glance.
Both of them have above-average qualifications, and are still some distance from geniuses.
Their strength is among the best in the Thirteen Realms.
The viewer is very satisfied.
After that, the visitor asked about their origins.
Regarding this matter, both of them were foxes among foxes who lied without drafting, and they talked a lot in a eloquent manner.
Most likely, the two of them usually practiced at the Yuehu Peak of Mianzhu Mountain in the North. Something unexpected happened this time, so they went south. They came here by chance. They usually visited the mountain gate, and I heard that Dragon Slaying Temple is here. Fang Dazong's sect has been thinking about it, but it has been suffering from no way.
But he didn't want to save the great elder Mu Sangzi by chance, so he came here.
The temple owner arranged for Xia Ji and Bai Zhu to stay. While asking people to pay attention to whether the two were really Taoist couples, he also sent people to Mianzhu Mountain in the north to check the situation.
But Xia Ji had already made arrangements in the north. The disciples of Dragon Slayer Temple who went to the north to investigate the situation would get information that was "slightly deviating from their description, but everything was within the reasonable and prudent scope of a pair of monks." , and then further investigation, the Dragon Slaying Temple disciples will learn that these two people offended a powerful sect named Escape Palace in the North, so they were forced to leave their original place of seclusion and give up their freedom. A life of ease.
If he goes to the Escape Palace to inquire again, he will get a complete answer.
Because, the Reclusive Palace was originally a sect held in the palm of the Wang family.
But this result is reasonable and reasonable. There is no way that Zhanlongguan will not accept these two people because of fear of revenge from Shi Zong.
As for the "life of a Taoist couple" between the two, Xia Ji and Bai Zhu played it very realistically.
They treat each other with respect on weekdays, but they sleep in the same bed at night. They understand each other perfectly in everything they say and do, as if they have lived together for many years.
After the viewer received confirmation from many parties, he chose an auspicious day and admitted the two of them.
Of course, the seniority of these two people will not be determined according to the order of succession. Instead, they will be directly accepted as disciples by the temple master and they will be designated as the fourth generation disciples of Dragon Slaying Temple.
You must know that today's Dragon Slaying Temple can be ranked as the seventh or eighth generation in terms of seniority. As soon as the two of them enter, they are already the master and uncle to the youngest disciples.
Normally, the two of them wear masks on their faces, looking like a blue bird and a white fox respectively. The viewer even specially asked them to take off their masks.
But Xia Ji and Bai Zhu did not refuse.
Xia Ji didn't know how many incarnations Bai Zhu had. Anyway, after taking off the white fox mask, he completely changed from a "lady" appearance to a "charming" fairy, like the one who usually haunts Goulan brothels. Oiran.
Xia Ji silently recorded this appearance.
For him, changing faces shouldn't be too simple. His seventy-two change of name to "seventy-two" actually shows that he has reached the extreme control of his body. He can change into any shape with just one breath.
Therefore, Bai Zhu and the viewer saw the same elegant and suave face with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. To their surprise, this face and this elegant temperament matched Bai Zhu's charming appearance very well. No one believed it even if they were not Taoist monks. .
Anyway, the viewer believed it, and he understood why the two of them wore masks.
Too prominent.
Too showy.
Although most monks are handsome men and beautiful women, there are indeed very few who can be so charming and romantic.
The two of them were tired of the worldly gaze, so they put on these two masks.
It's natural, as it should be.
So, the two people put on their masks again and looked at each other deeply. It seemed that they were all old-fashioned dolls. They usually did this kind of thing, and their professionalism was obvious at a glance.
After joining the sect, the two of them were taught the mysterious skills of Dragon Slaying Temple - [Dragon Sword Sutra], which was considered as a foundation. After they made certain contributions to the sect, they could be taught further magical powers.
The way of magical power is the foundation of a sect.
Good karma and bad karma all depend on the individual.
Xia Ji and Bai Zhu lived together for half a year.
Both of them knew what "playing for the occasion" meant. Naturally, they couldn't have any feelings for just half a year. On weekdays, they should eat together, train together when they should, and sleep together when they should.
In a blink of an eye, winter has arrived.
It was cold and freezing, and light snow was falling outside the window.
Farther away, on the platform at the foot of Dragon Slaying View Mountain, the sound of disciples practicing their swords could be faintly heard.
The cold wind howled and seeped in through the window gap, making a soft and sometimes heavy "hissing" sound, which made people feel a little hairy in their hearts, as if it was the closing time of the mountain in a ghost movie.
Xia Ji stood in front of the window, and the door behind him suddenly opened.
The cold wind only penetrated a little bit, and was stopped by the door that was quickly closed.
Bai Zhu walked to him, and the two of them stood in front of the window, looking out at the pure white scenery of hundreds of miles of mountains.
Bai Zhu opened his mouth and said quietly: "In this short period of half a year, Dragon Slayer Sect has had disputes with Golden Lotus Sect, Jianhong Sect, Qingfeng Pavilion, and even high-ranking figures have been injured or killed.
There is no trace of the cause, and there is nothing special about it except that it happens very frequently.
It can be said that if these casualties occurred within a hundred years, there would be almost no doubt at all, but they happened within half a year.
This is just the tip of the iceberg.
In addition, the great elder Mu Sangzi died after all. He died in the hands of one of the seven pavilion masters of Qingfeng Pavilion yesterday. "
Bai Zhu simply described this fact.
Especially things like "Musangzi is still dead" have a "Death is coming" flavor, that is, you may be able to escape death once by relying on luck, but you are destined to encounter death again soon.
Xia Ji asked: "How did you die?"
Bai Zhu said: "The subordinate forces of Qingfeng Pavilion had a small conflict with Dragon Slaying Temple, but the conflict became more and more intense due to the choices of all parties. At this time, in order to avoid a complete escalation of the conflict, both parties carried out the usual tactics here. Means - sect martial arts duel, the witness is the royal family of Qi country.
But yesterday, Mu Sangzi went to fight as a person sent by Dragon Slayer Temple, but was killed in the battle. That's what happened. "
"The royal family of Qi Kingdom..."
Xia Ji was a little impressed.
Previously, among the nine supreme gods in the Court of Gods, there was one supreme god who "attacked with blood evil energy". That supreme god was killed by him first, and he was the ancestor of the Qi Kingdom's royal family.
In terms of geographical location, the territory of the royal family of Qi Kingdom perfectly avoided the scope of the Twelve Golden Human Formation, and Scorpion, who had been curled up, lay down toward the northeast, with his back against the sea to the west.
Bai Zhu said: "On the surface, there is nothing wrong with the Qi Kingdom's royal family. It's just that the imperial power in this land is relatively heavy. When the two sects are fighting, it is normal to find the royal family to bear witness."
Xia Jidao: "During this period, I have been reading books in the Guanzhong Library, and I even helped them improve some minor flaws in the exercises in a reasonable and reasonable manner, which can be regarded as a great contribution, and thus gained more reading permissions.
Then, when I choose exercises, I will also mix in a few books such as sect chronicles. These sect chronicles are all public, but they can also be used to infer the tip of the iceberg from various major events. If it really exists problem, you can use this as a breakthrough.
In addition, I sit in the library every day and observe all the disciples who enter the library to read books. "
Bai Zhu asked: "What's the result?"
Xia Jidao: "Those disciples are very normal. I am almost sure that there is nothing wrong with them."
Bai Zhu fell into silence.
Xia Jidao: "What a sect needs to do is actually practice practice and control resources. Among these resources, the main ones are the embers of the fire disaster, the ruins of small mountains and rivers, and the karma dream area... because these already have areas. , is controllable.
What needs to be explored is the Kuroshio area. Only the Kuroshio area is rich in urn books, because for those who need to break through the fourteenth realm, the number of pages of the urn book is far from enough.
Since those disciples are normal, the problem probably lies with the higher-ups of the sect, that is, the thirteenth or fourteenth realm...
Since this problem is related to the Kuroshio, something fishy may be revealed when exploring the Kuroshio area. "
Bai Zhu added: "However, only the best elites of a sect are eligible to be buried. This means that resources need to be spent on the tip of the knife."
Xia Ji glanced at her and suddenly asked in a confused manner: "You come or do I come?"
Bai Zhu said: "Come on, I'm not good at rushing forward."
Xia Ji nodded and suddenly said: "It's done, you treat me to a meal."
Bai Zhu:? ?
"What kind of food?"
"Next time you pass by the Human World Restaurant, just treat me to a meal."
Bai Zhu:? ?
This... what does this mean
Could it be that there is some Zen secret hidden there
Bai Zhu thought for a while and asked, "What kind of rice?"
Xia Jidao: "The two of us can eat it, as long as it's within the standard of three taels of silver."
"Three taels of silver..."
Bai Zhu chuckled, she never brought any money, let alone three taels, but she still said "ok", just think it was the personal style of this strange tenth person.
Xia Ji nodded.
Then…
The heart moves with thoughts.
A new scarlet letter danced in his mind.
