Chapter 10 Ranking No. 10
Xu Qiuqian had also wondered what happened to the boy, but the most common answer he got was that he was dead.
Half of his face and body were corroded. He would not live long without help.
She didn't know why she cared about a boy whom she had only met once. Perhaps the emotions in his eyes were too powerful and complex, making her unable to imagine what a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy had experienced to have such a look in his eyes.
But it's just a thought.
She never thought of inquiring about the boy's whereabouts. If he was still alive, she would not go out of her way to get to know him.
However, we met again tonight. Maybe this is fate.
The boy's lips were pale and his eyes were closed. Xu Qiuqian dragged him to the bed that Chen Wu had built earlier. He planned to take the boy to see a doctor tomorrow. He leaned over to check his breath and found that it was weaker than before.
If this continues, it will probably be gone before tomorrow morning.
After thinking for a while, she entered the Void Mall and searched for what could be used to repair the injuries caused by the Corrupted Water Beast.
This search made her frown.
Because in order to repair the injuries caused by the corrupt water beast, at least 200 points are required. Once the skin comes into contact with the corrupt water, it will quickly corrode the muscles. The corrupt water is permeable and will penetrate into the internal organs little by little over time.
To repair it, the first thing to do is to cut out the dead flesh, and secondly, to thoroughly remove the dead water that has penetrated into the body.
But she doesn't have that many points right now.
Looking at the pitiful 10 points, Xu Qiuqian sighed, and finally chose the Wuyun Pill that could temporarily slow down the penetration of the corrupt water.
Each Wuyun Pill is worth 2 points and can last for two days. He still has 10 points, which means that as long as he can get 200 points within ten days, the other party can be saved.
She looked at the boy lying on the bed.
"Whether you can survive depends on luck."
If she couldn't sell the spirit stones needed for 200 points in ten days, there was nothing she could do.
After being busy for so long, Xu Qiuqian yawned continuously and fell asleep quickly after lying on the soft cloud bed.
1. Have a good night’s sleep.
Xu Qiuqian opened the door of the shop. Hong'an Street was still unusually quiet. There were a few half-dying shops here before, but no one knew when these shops had closed down. Now hers was the only shop still open as usual on Hong'an Street.
I stretched my body, stretched my muscles, and prepared to go out to find something to eat.
After her spiritual vein was damaged, she was no different from an ordinary person. She needed to sleep and eat. Fortunately, she had to sleep and eat in the interstellar space before, so she was quite used to it. The only thing she was not used to was eating.
Some time ago, I just bought some dry food such as whole grains to make do. I could buy a lot at one time and didn’t have to waste time going out to look for food for every meal.
I just finished the last of my dry food biscuits yesterday.
She had originally planned to just leave like this. There wasn't much in her store anyway, and no one could move the shelves and the Three Soul Bell. But then she thought about the unconscious person lying inside, so she closed the store.
Thinking of the dark yellow gas last night, and what Yu Jun had told her before, Xu Qiuqian decided to go to the so-called Xianwu Pavilion to take a look.
Less than half an hour later, Xu Qiuqian arrived at Xianwu Pavilion.
Xianwu Pavilion is very large and is divided into four areas: A, B, C, and D. Areas C and D have the most people, followed by Area B, and Area A has the least.
Xu Qiuqian took a quick look and found that the tasks in Area D were all very simple, and quite a few of them could be done by ordinary people. However, Area C and Area B had some thresholds, and only cultivators who had mastered the skills of Qi Refining and Foundation Building were required.
Anyone with any level of cultivation can take on these four areas, but they will need to withhold a portion of spirit stones to accept the mission.
These spirit stones will not be returned if the mission is not completed, so there is no situation of accepting missions randomly. Everyone accepts missions within their own capabilities. However, not all missions give spirit stones. Some also give materials, pill formations, weapons, talismans, and even martial arts techniques.
Anyway, there are all kinds of things.
Xu Qiuqian walked towards Area A, which was behind the other three areas. The cultivators entering and leaving Area A all seemed to be very powerful.
The missions in Area A are all relatively dangerous, especially on the left side, where there is even a mission ranking list with ten rewards from high to low. Xu Qiuqian noticed that the mission on Hong'an Street was ranked tenth.
She stared at the task.
"Senior, do you want to take this task?"
A cultivator saw Xu Qiuqian staring at the Hong'an Street mission and couldn't help but speak up.
“……”It seems that I have been mistaken for a senior again.
Seeing that Xu Qiuqian didn't say anything, the monk thought she agreed and said quickly: "I see that you are a stranger. I think you have just arrived in Youling City not long ago. Senior, don't think that this task is ranked tenth. In fact, it should be ranked first."
Xu Qiuqian then looked at the monk: "Oh? What do you mean?"
So the monk told her the rumors about Hong'an Street that Yu Jun had told her before.
“So this doesn’t mean that the difficulty of the missions on Hong’an Street can only reach the tenth level.
It was because the mission on Hong'an Street was upgraded to Grade A, and after many cultivators took it up and then gave it up, the City Lord's Mansion and several other large families stepped in directly. Later, even the City Lord's Mansion and several other large families were helpless and decided to put Hong'an Street on hold, so this mission was also put on hold and the price was never raised again, so it stopped at tenth.
If this mission hadn't been shelved, it would definitely be at the top of the list. If you want to take on the mission, you might want to take a look at this."
The monk took Xu Qiuqian to look at other A-level tasks.
"I'm also preparing to take on a mission. If you have time, we might as well work together."
It is impossible to cooperate.
If she were to take on the task of taking up armor while her spiritual vein was damaged, wouldn't that be courting death?
Xu Qiuqian had no choice but to change the subject and asked him, "What if someone takes the mission on Hong'an Street that you just mentioned?"
The monk laughed: "How is it possible? Everyone in Youling City knows how difficult this mission is, and no one would dare to risk their lives..."
Before he could finish his words, someone exclaimed, "The tenth mission in Area A has been taken!"
"..." The monk was speechless for a while, "There really is someone who doesn't want to live. I want to see who is the one who doesn't want to live."
The two of them rushed over with the crowd, and heard a young voice speaking arrogantly: "Isn't it just the tenth place on the list? The cultivators in Youling City don't dare to accept it, but I do! I am asking a disciple of Ji Zong, and there is no timid or cowardly person among the disciples of Ji Zong!"
The young man in green had a proud look on his face, and the other boys and girls who were dressed similarly to him also echoed her.
"That's right, we are asking for the disciples of Ji Zong!"
"We must complete this mission and let others know how capable we, the disciples of the Ji Sect, are!"
Only one of the girls, who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a beautiful face and a distinguished temperament, gave people a rather steady feeling. She frowned and said with a gloomy face: "Junior brother, how can you be so reckless? If you get hurt, how can I explain to Master when I return?"
No one knew what had touched the boy's heart, so he sneered, "You think I'm useless, right? Fine, you don't have to participate in this mission at all. I want to show my father that my ability is not inferior to yours!"
After saying that, he left angrily! The other boys and girls followed him out.
The girl sighed when she heard that, but did not chase after him. Instead, her eyes swept across the crowd watching the fun, and finally stopped on Xu Qiuqian.
