Zhao Lin selected the mission and said to Manager Hu: "Brother, I want to receive the Gengshen No. 9 mission."
Each task has an identifier, numbered by the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches plus a number.
Manager Hu was very familiar with the business. He knew which mission Zhao Lin was referring to without looking at the jade slips. He asked, "Is it the mission in the Yinfeng Realm?"
"right."
"Are you sure you want to choose this mission?"
"Sure."
"Okay, take out your body-illuminating stone and the jade slips you carry with you."
Zhao Lin Yiyan took out the jade slip, and with a movement of consciousness, he blocked out the contents inside.
The body-illuminating stone is my privacy. There are Lu Yuanxiu's practice records in the jade slips that I carry with me, and they cannot be shown to outsiders.
Manager Hu flicked his sleeves, and there was a vermilion judge's pen in his hand.
"This pen is called the Xingyuan Pen. It is not a weapon, but a small magic weapon that can write content into the Illumination Stone."
Manager Hu explained and released his magic power at the same time.
The Xingyuan pen immediately lit up, and a silver light flashed on the tip of the pen.
Hu Guanshi held the Xingyuan pen in his hand, writing and scratching in the void, and then a magical scene happened: the silver characters condensed and formed in the air, and flew into the Zhaoshen Stone.
"It's written."
Manager Hu returned the body-illuminating stone to Zhao Lin.
Zhao Lin took it and took a look, only to see a line of words appearing inside the Zhaoshen Stone: In February of the Guimao Year, Zhao Lin received the task of picking from the Yinfeng Realm, gold level Geng Shen No. 9.
Next, Manager Hu took Zhao Lin's jade slip and cast a copying spell.
"There are mission details inside. Junior brother must read it carefully and be prepared before performing the mission."
Zhao Lin glanced at the jade slips he carried with him and nodded with satisfaction.
I have to say that the sect has considered it very carefully, and the mission details include a detailed introduction to the Yinfeng Realm.
For example, the weather and terrain inside, what monsters and ghosts there are, how to protect yourself, etc.
It also lists all aspects of how to identify Yinfeng grass and star peony, as well as the harvesting experience of previous generations.
Zhao Lin saw the end and found a description: Two monks disappeared in the Yinfeng Realm twenty years ago for unknown reasons.
unknown reason?
Zhao Lin felt wary. The mission level was determined by the Zongmen Shanggong Hall. Generally there would be no problems, but things were unpredictable, so it was better to be cautious.
Manager Hu put away the Xingyuan pen and held it in his hand, "The task has been completed. We will notify all states within two days. I wish junior brother everything goes well and success is imminent!"
Zhao Lin also raised his hand and replied: "Thank you for your kind words, senior brother!"
It was still early, so when I left Shanggong Hall and arrived at Lingdao Temple, I happened to catch the morning class.
After morning classes, Zhao Lin found Dong Lingcheng in Chuan Gong Hall.
Dong Lingcheng is the brother who teaches martial arts. Zhao Lin saved him when he went to Jueming Mountain to clear out locusts. The two have always had a good relationship.
"Senior Brother Dong, I accepted a sect mission to go into the Yinfeng Realm to pick Yinfeng Grass."
Zhao Lin explained the matter in a few words.
The last time I received my good deeds, Manager Wang from the Confidentiality Department revealed a method of exchanging good deeds for spiritual stones: using your own good deeds to buy things for others in exchange for spiritual stones is more cost-effective than exchanging good deeds directly for spiritual stones.
When doing a mission for the first time, you must be fully prepared. Zhao Lin plans to master all four spells: Rock Armor, Ice Knife, Flaming Arrow, and Qi Watching.
Moreover, we learned from the mission details that the Yin Wind Realm is very dense with Yin energy, which is extremely detrimental to practice. If you want to stay there for a long time, you must take Sanyang Pill to combat the Yin energy inside.
In addition, Sanyin grass and Star peony grass are both negative spiritual herbs. If they are mixed with spiritual stones or other items, their medicinal properties will easily disappear.
Therefore, you also need to buy a lockable bag to hold the spiritual herbs separately.
These all cost spiritual stones. Zhao Lin only had more than a hundred spiritual stones on hand, which was far from enough. He came to Dong Lingcheng to exchange the spiritual stones.
In addition, Dong Lingcheng is a senior brother who teaches martial arts. He should have experience in this field and can also help him with advice.
"What, you accepted the mission?"
Dong Lingcheng looked surprised.
"Yes, I want to accumulate good deeds and spiritual stones as soon as possible."
Zhao Lin didn't hide anything and directly expressed his thoughts.
Dong Lingcheng nodded slowly, "Yes, but if you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools and have all the equipment."
Zhao Lin said with a smile: "I was just thinking of asking Senior Brother, apart from Bigu Pill, Sanyang Pill, and a special lock bag, what other equipment should I prepare?"
"Let me think."
Dong Lingcheng touched his chin and pondered for a while, then said: "You'd better buy another pair of inner armor. If you are attacked, it can protect you and reduce the damage."
Zhao Lin asked: "Inner armor...how much does it cost?"
Dong Lingcheng said: "Originally, the silk robes in our county are very good, but the price is too expensive. I guess you won't be able to part with them. An ordinary inner armor, even a cheap one, costs one or two hundred spiritual stones."
"In addition to armor, there should also be Huanhuan Dan for treating internal and external injuries, and Jin Sheng Powder."
"By the way, you can't stay awake in the Yinfeng Realm. Don't forget to bring tents, spiritual rice and other daily necessities."
Zhao Lin nodded, the money should be spent, and then asked: "Is there any more?"
"have!"
Dong Lingcheng continued: "When you go out to do tasks, you usually need to buy talismans, such as magic walking talisman, flying stone talisman, shield talisman, etc."
"As a martial artist, you don't need to buy these talismans, but there are two talismans that you must buy."
"What two kinds of talismans?"
"Warning Talisman, Hongyan Talisman!"
The warning talisman is also called the fireworks talisman. When in danger, it can instantly activate a large number of fireworks to seek help from nearby monks.
The Hongyan Talisman was originally called the Last Word Talisman. It was a talisman used by monks to convey the cause of their death when they encountered life danger or were about to die.
This kind of talisman is similar to the jade slip of true meaning. It can record all sounds and images within a few breaths and transmit these contents back to the sect.
This talisman's escape ability is so strong that even Foundation Establishment monks have a hard time intercepting it.
Holding this talisman, if someone wants to harm me, just release the talisman and the situation at that time can be recorded. It is a means of protection for sect disciples.
Therefore, the monk who created this talisman named it the Last Words Talisman. Later, he felt that the name was unlucky, so he changed its name to the Hongyan Talisman.
Both of these talismans are expensive, especially the Hongyan Talisman, which costs hundreds of spiritual stones.
Zhao Lin secretly felt heartbroken. Before the task was completed, he had spent a large amount of "a huge sum of money". He may not be able to make back the money even after completing the task.
But then I thought about it, all these equipment can be saved for the next mission. Once invested, it will benefit many times. The money that should be spent cannot be saved, and I feel relieved.
"Senior brother, I want to buy so much equipment, but I don't have enough spiritual stones on hand. I would like to exchange some good deeds with you for some spiritual stones."
Zhao Lindao made his intention clear.
"no problem!"
Dong Lingcheng agreed without thinking. Good deeds are scarce resources and no one is willing to use them easily. Zhao Lin is willing to exchange his good deeds for spiritual stones, which is very good.
He looked around, pulled Zhao Lin outside the power transmission hall, and whispered: "How many spiritual stones do you want to exchange for?" (End of Chapter)
