Although the little apprentice sister is weak, she can fight

A good day starts with a delicious breakfast.

"Is that enough, kid? If not, come back for more! You're so skinny, you should eat more!"

"That's enough, you see, there's no room left." Shen Qiao responded repeatedly, carefully took the full bowl of pickled mustard greens wontons from the aunt, and found a corner in the cafeteria to put it down.

The clear soup base is served with pickled vegetables specially prepared by the chefs, and sprinkled with coriander and sesame oil after serving.

Shen Qiao specially added some chili and dried shrimps, and this bowl of food makes people's mouths water just by looking at it.

She came here right after finishing her morning practice. The cafeteria had just opened, so there weren't too many disciples coming to eat.

Whether in his previous life or now, Shen Qiao’s most relaxing time is preparing three meals a day.

The food in the cafeteria tastes excellent, and the ingredients are all grown by the sect itself. The head chef is rotated among several food masters, and at least three windows are opened every day to distribute different meals.

Shen Qiao took a look at the menu today and it seemed that there were also shrimp fried buns and egg yolk porridge.

In fact, she seldom ate in the cafeteria on weekdays. She would pack up her food and take it away, finishing it on the way to the vegetable garden or the library.

The main reason why she didn't take him away today was for one thing - she could finally take on the sect's mission outside.

Most of these tasks are problems reported by ordinary people in the area under the jurisdiction of Tianxingmen.

It is divided into three categories: low, medium and high. The higher the level, the greater the reward.

Low-level and mid-level tasks are quite common, but high-level tasks are rarely encountered at their current level and status. Because these tasks involve human lives, they are all completed by the elders of the sect or their designated disciples.

Low-level tasks are difficult to obtain and do not provide much experience. High-level tasks are only seen once a month and there is no chance to come into contact with them, so Shen Qiao set his sights on tasks of medium difficulty.

Oh, there is one thing I forgot to mention. A week after the competition, she finally absorbed the entire Youran Grass. Now she is only one step away from reaching the state of Forget Worry.

It was still early to release the task list, so Shen Qiao ate slowly. He planned not to return to his residence for a while, but to go down the mountain to take on the tasks.

"Junior sister? You're here to eat so early."

Shen Qiao looked over when she heard the voice and saw Shang Mian coming over with a plate of fried buns. "Junior Sister."

Seeing that there were acquaintances here, Shang Mian simply sat at the table with Shen Qiao. "Don't worry, don't worry. Don't talk while eating or sleeping. If you have something to say, we can talk later."

This was exactly what Shen Qiao wanted.

The two of them finished their meal quietly, cleaned up the table and plates before leaving the cafeteria.

"I heard from Senior Sister that you want to take on a mission today?"

Shen Qiao felt warm all over after the meal and stretched unconsciously. "Yes, at this level now, I have to find some practice to practice."

Shang Mian nodded. "That's perfect. I'm planning to go down the mountain to buy some tools today. I'll go with you and help you get familiar with the way down the mountain."

"Okay, thank you very much, Senior Sister~"

The two of them talked as they walked, and soon they arrived at the place where the task list was placed in front of the mountain gate.

In fact, it is just to put a long table in the open space, and spread out the refreshed task scrolls according to the level area. There are different task logos on the seal of each scroll. The disciples look at the task logo they want to choose in advance, and then compete with each other in hand speed. Whoever grabs it first gets it.

In addition to these tasks released on the same day, there are also some tasks that need to be returned after failure. The general completion time for each task is three days. Except for special circumstances, any task that is not returned after the time limit will be automatically regarded as a mission failure. The sect will then send monks of higher realms to take over and provide support.

This was the type of work Shen Qiao accepted the most in his previous life. The rewards were high, and there was no need to fight for it, which was relatively convenient.

As expected, seventeen or eighteen low-level tasks were snatched up as soon as they came out, and the nine mid-level tasks were chosen from, leaving only a team task for the two of them.

Although I was mentally prepared, I didn't expect everyone's hand speed to be so fast.

"It's a three-person mission. There are only you and me, but we're still short of one more person. Why don't we ask Third Senior Sister and the others?"

Shen Qiao shook his head. "Big Sister took them to the library today, so I guess she's busy."

"Is that so...how about just grabbing one at random?"

Shen Qiao said he had no objection.

Shang Mian looked around until he saw behind Shen Qiao, "Senior Brother Mu!"

Senior Brother Mu?

Shen Qiao was full of doubts and turned to look in the direction of the voice, only to see that it was the senior brother in white clothes whom he had met during the competition that day.

"Hello, Senior Brother Mu Jiu." Shang Mian bowed to remind him, and Shen Qiao followed suit.

"Hello, my two junior sisters." Mu Jiu bowed.

After a few simple pleasantries, Shang Mian got back to the point, "Senior Brother Mu, are you here to take on a mission as well?"

Mu Jiu smiled helplessly, "Well, but it seems that I am late."

"Junior Sister Shen is taking on a mission for the first time today. We are short one of three people. Would you like to join us, Senior Brother?"

The three of them looked at each other.

Obviously, no one has any objections.

"Then thank you two junior sisters for taking me in."

The three of them successfully completed the last task and completed the registration. On the way down the mountain, they briefly looked at the general content of the task.

It is said that there has been unrest in Wanshou Mountain recently. Some residents reported that they heard strange singing when passing by at night. The most serious one was scared crazy. It is still unknown what exactly he encountered. The disciples stationed there went to check several times but failed to solve the problem, so this task was reported to the sect through various levels.

"The head of the hall in charge of that area is called Zhou Xian. According to the description, from the time they received reports from residents about the singing until now, they have searched the mountains three times. The first time they only encountered some common beasts, and the second time they didn't gain much either. The focus is on the third time." Shang Mian flipped through an attached report sheet and summarized it for the other two people.

"Because the first two searches yielded little, they sent more people the third time. However, during this search, one of the three teams encountered a problem. Only four of the five returned, and one disappeared."

"What do his teammates say?" This was asked by Mu Jiu, who was one step behind the other.

Shang Mian read it over and over again. "That's all it says. I'll probably have to ask in person for the details."

While they were talking, the three of them had already walked out of the mountain gate. Since Wanshou Mountain was not far away, it was enough for each of them to ride a horse to continue their journey.

"I remember that Junior Sister Shen hasn't taken horse riding lessons yet. Why don't you ride with your senior brothers and sisters? Otherwise, you might fall easily." The senior brother who manages the stables looked at Shen Qiao, obviously hesitant.

"No need." Shen Qiao rejected the kindness of this senior brother, took the reins from his hand, and jumped onto the horse with both hands.

I haven't ridden a horse for a long time, so I really feel familiar with it.

Shen Qiao grasped the reins and steed the chestnut horse for a few steps. The management brother beside him didn't dare to leave, fearing that the little ancestor would fall and be punished by the master chef. "Slow down, slow down, that's right, don't hold the horse's neck, slowly find your balance..."

Just as he was about to let go, Shen Qiao pulled the reins and yelled,

"drive!"

"Hey hey hey! Slow down! Oh my god, when did this little apprentice sister learn how to ride a horse? She's even better than an experienced rider!"

Shang Mian followed closely behind and said with a smile, "It's okay, we're following you. Let's go first."
