Chapter 287 Serving the Grand Master?
Sitting on the jade horse, Xu Qiuqian looked extremely surprised.
"I didn't expect that the Red Eye Pavilion's base was also in Pingfeng City."
Qinglin smiled and said, "This is what it means to be a great hermit in a city. Most people who know about the Red Eye Pavilion think that the Red Eye Pavilion's base must be in a remote place. In fact, every time the base is changed, it is basically in Pingfeng City."
"I see. I remember you said before that there will be martial law in the next few days. Why is that?"
Speaking of this, Qinglin couldn't help but frown.
"Because of a heavenly mission, that heavenly mission requires us to kill a person, this person's code name is Earth Spirit Girl, her name is Xu Qiuqian, speaking of which, this person has the same last name as you."
Xu Qiu smiled faintly.
Qinglin continued, "Originally, the mission of the Earth Spirit Girl had been completed. Unexpectedly, for some reason, the Earth Spirit Girl's spiritual veins were restored, so the higher-ups issued a mission for us to complete this heaven-level mission again. Have you received this mission?"
"No."
"You probably didn't participate before. This time, only those who have participated in the Earth Spirit Girl mission before and those who are at the Earth level can take it."
I see.
"Did you pick it up then?"
"No."
Xu Qiuqian was puzzled: "Why? You should be a ground-level tasker, right?"
Qinglin hummed, and said embarrassedly: "I have been studying that hand recently. Apart from the three fixed tasks of the Red Eye Pavilion every month, I have been studying the hand at other times, including this time. Well, to be honest, I don’t even want to do the three fixed tasks every month, let alone the task of the Earth Spirit Girl."
“…”
She thought about whether Qinglin would accept the task or not, but she never thought that the reason was this.
It’s really... a bit laughable.
"Is that card so attractive to you?" Xu Qiuqian couldn't help but be curious.
"Of course, Fellow Daoist Xu should also know, right? The rules contained in this hand card space, although I cannot see through them with my current cultivation, I am fascinated by them. I always feel that if I understand them, my Tao may also undergo a huge change."
Hearing Qinglin say this, Xu Qiuqian became interested.
Previously, the system had disabled this function to prevent any impact on her entering the Void Mall. Now she could open it when she had time and try out what Qinglin had described.
But the most important thing now is to save Shi Qian and the others.
Soon, they arrived at the Chitong Pavilion.
The Chitong Pavilion is located behind an inn. The location is cleverly chosen so that no one would be suspicious even if unfamiliar monks come in and out, after all, it is just an inn.
Although it is called an inn, it covers a large area.
The scenery is also very nice.
You can tell at a glance that this inn has no shortage of spirit stones.
"How long would you like to stay, gentlemen? And which price range of cave would you like to stay in? We have rooms and caves here, you can take a look, there are four levels of caves available: Tiandi, Xuanhuang, and Dihuang!" Seeing the two of them, the waiter came forward enthusiastically.
"We live in the Deficit Soul Reaper Pavilion."
After these words came out, the waiter's smile faded, but his tone became much more respectful: "Sir, please follow me."
The two followed the waiter and entered through the path next to the inn.
In front of me was a dark corridor that could only accommodate one person.
"Just follow me, don't worry."
Xu Qiuqian nodded, walked about thirty steps behind Qinglin, and a light appeared in front of him.
"We're here." She heard Qinglin say, looked up, and was stunned, "Is this the base of the Chitong Pavilion?"
All you see is red and black. Everywhere seems eerie and dark, and looks extremely weird. The buildings are also pitch black, with some red dotted on them, and the red looks like blood.
On the pillars of each building, there is a giant python carved like the one on the token, with its mouth wide open and its pupils glowing red.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a decent place.
Knowing that this arrangement looked strange, Qinglin said helplessly: "The arrangement of the Chitong Pavilion is arranged according to the order of the Pavilion Master."
"It's quite unique." Xu Qiuqian nodded.
Qinglin was surprised: "Don't you feel weird and uncomfortable?"
After all, when a cultivator looks at such a place, anyone would think that it is the residence of evil cultivators or demon cultivators, and thus would develop a resistance to it. In fact, most of the earth-level taskers rarely come here, so they don't like it very much.
"It's OK. I can't say I like it, nor do I hate it. I just think it's unique."
After all, I haven't seen any weirdly decorated buildings in StarCraft. This one can only be said to have a dark style. Except for the giant python's red eyes that do make people a little creepy, other places look quite harmonious.
"The layout is nice." Xu Qiuqian praised.
It looks symmetrical and echoes each other.
Qinglin: “…”
"Not bad, your aesthetic ability!" someone suddenly said.
Xu Qiuqian looked over and saw a man wearing a black and red robe. The man had a handsome face and a bit of an evil look. He looked at Xu Qiuqian with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"You are the first one who can appreciate the layout of this pavilion master."
Xu Qiuqian was stunned.
Is this the Pavilion Master?
Qinglin beside him saluted and said, "Third Pavilion Master."
The Third Pavilion Master nodded.
"Qinglin, why haven't you been diligent in coming back recently? You don't even accept the Heaven-level missions. Don't you want to do this anymore?"
"No, no." Qinglin explained quickly, "It's mainly because I got a good thing recently, and I've been studying it recently."
The third pavilion master didn't care and looked at Xu Qiuqian.
"This is..."
"She is also from the Red Eye Pavilion, but she is at the Yellow Level. She came to me a few days ago and said she wanted to visit the Red Eye Pavilion, so I brought her here."
"Want to come to the Chitong Pavilion to take a look? What to see?" The third pavilion master raised his eyebrows.
He is not as easy to fool as Qinglin. At this juncture, this person's purpose may be...
"That's right. I do have another purpose. I want to come here to ask, besides accumulating tokens and completing tasks, is there any other way to improve my level?"
After these words were spoken, the Third Pavilion Master's doubts were largely dispelled.
It is true that every once in a while there are a few people who want to take shortcuts.
He looked Xu Qiuqian up and down and shook his head.
"A great Pavilion Master like you won't like that."
“???” What the hell?
But she didn't show that she didn't understand, she just followed the Third Pavilion Master's words and looked very disappointed.
Qinglin, who was standing next to him, was also extremely shocked.
"You, you came to the Red Eye Pavilion to serve the Grand Master? Do you know that the Grand Master..."
"Qinglin."
The Third Pavilion Master interrupted Qinglin and said, "The Second Pavilion Master wants to see you, please go over there."
Qinglin looked at Xu Qiuqian hesitantly.
"Don't worry, I will take care of your friend for you."
"Then I'll go and be back soon."
After Qinglin left.
The third pavilion master looked at Xu Qiuqian and clicked his tongue twice.
"Why do you want to serve the Grand Master?"
Xu Qiuqian was confused, lowered her eyes, and said in a sad tone: "If it wasn't necessary, who would do this..."
Who knows what the hell you are talking about!
The third pavilion master was startled.
He seemed to be thinking of something and lost in memories.
After a while, he came to his senses.
"Come with me."
