"Senior Sister, don't go!"

The junior sister quickly stood up and chased after him.

After a while.

Lu Zhiqiu flashed and slipped back.

However, there was no trace of her junior sister behind her.

Lu Zhiqiu went back and forth just to get rid of her.

This time it's finally quiet.

Lu Zhiqiu stretched and began to check the task boards hanging around.

She didn't need to look at the body-building mission again.

The mission of building the foundation is quite dangerous at the moment and it is easy for her to expose her cards, so there is no need to take the risk.

Ok.

Just find one in the Qi training level mission.

After Lu Zhiqiu made up his mind, he paced back and forth in the Qi training area, looking carefully.

But she looked around.

Most of these missions involve clearing out bandits who are robbing and looting nearby, or bringing justice to the towns and villages affiliated with the Jian Ji Sect.

It can be as boring as it can be.

That's it.

Let’s choose another way.

Lu Zhiqiu went straight to the disciple on duty in the Mission Hall and asked for a list of tasks, divided into categories.

Only then did she realize it.

Among the numerous tasks in the past, the most popular type was the one that involved solving abnormal phenomena in ordinary towns.

Because it often means safety.

After all, what in the mortal world could threaten a cultivator?

But Lu Zhiqiu saw it.

Wu Mengyu had surprisingly just received a mission in the mortal world.

She secretly complained in her heart:

Senior sister, you have the combat power of a great cultivator who has established his foundation, so why are you acting like a newbie who has just embarked on Qi training, and choosing the simplest tasks timidly?

It's totally unprofessional.

Lu Zhiqiu immediately slammed the table and said to the disciple on duty:

"Hello, I'll take this task too."

The disciple on duty asked:

"Let me see... Are you sure you want to accept this quest: 'Crops in Liusha Village are mysteriously withering. Requesting an investigation from the immortals.'"

Lu Zhiqiu nodded in confirmation.

Do not misunderstand.

Of course she wasn't going there for comfort.

She just felt that, based on her experience of reading online articles in her previous life, such inconspicuous little places were most likely to hide great opportunities, such as the appearance of some divine object, which disrupted the laws of heaven and earth, causing crops to wither, and so on.

Wu Mengyu has a mysterious origin, strong strength, and can provide security.

It would be unreasonable for her not to go for a walk.

……

At the gate of Jianji Sect.

Wu Mengyu was almost falling asleep from waiting.

Seeing Lu Zhiqiu holding the same task card as her, she was a little surprised and said:

"So the new partner they sent a message to from the Mission Hall is you?"

Lu Zhiqiu smiled slightly.

After chatting for a few words, Lu Zhiqiu asked casually:

"Speaking of which, Senior Sister Wu, why did you accept such a mission? Did you discover any clues?"

Wu Mengyu widened his eyes and said:

"No-Maj, what No-Maj?"

"I just think that this Quicksand Village is closer, the mission is easier to complete, and it won't disturb my sleep."

Lu Zhiqiu touched his forehead, feeling helpless.

She had just forgotten that this senior sister was a genius who could come up with the excuse that the flying sword caught a cold during the assessment.

Wu Mengyu chose this task.

He said it was to avoid delaying his sleep, and I guess he really meant it.

Main World: Chapter 15: Fishing out the real culprit

The two men flew down on their swords.

An hour later, they arrived at Chunping County where Liusha Village was located.

Because it is close to Jian Ji Sect.

This place is more prosperous than other remote counties. From time to time, you can see martial arts masters who have achieved great success in physical training, drinking and eating meat in the inn.

I guess he also thought that the one who is close to the water will get the moon first.

I hope that one day I will be noticed by an immortal, brought back to the sect, and be able to ascend to heaven in one step.

on the street.

Every few steps you can see shops selling weapons and pills.

They all boasted that the masters in their shops had learned from the immortals in the Jian Ji Sect and had real skills and knowledge.

After all, Jianji Sect is famous for its swords, and is also well-known for refining flying swords. Many sixth-grade sects come to Jianji Sect to place orders.

But as long as someone who knows the business takes a look.

He realized that these weapons and elixirs were all ordinary stuff and there was no way that they could contain any of the Sword Extreme Sect's techniques.

Sitting in the inn.

Wu Mengyu asked in confusion:

"Junior Sister Lu, why don't we just go directly to Liusha Village to investigate? Why are we wasting time in Chunping County?"

Lu Zhiqiu bit the chicken leg and laughed:

"Of course, it's to find out about the situation in Chunping County so that we can make a judgment."

"For example, I just heard that Huangfeng Village and Liusha Village have always had a feud. The two towns have been fighting over land for decades."

Wu Mengyu's heart moved:

"Could it be that Huangfeng Village, holding a grudge, used strong pesticides on the fields of Liusha Village, causing their crops to wither?"

Lu Zhiqiu took another bite of the chicken leg and said:

"No."

"Liusha Village has had a specialist inspect the land, and there's nothing wrong with it, so it wasn't poisoned."

Wu Mengyu was filled with black lines:

"Then after all this talk, isn't it all in vain? I still have to go to Liusha Village to investigate in person."

Lu Zhiqiu wiped his mouth and sighed:

"Let's go and take a look at Quicksand Village."

The two walked out of the inn.

Lu Zhiqiu was certainly not doing useless work.

She came to Chunping County.

Just to find out if there have been any major events in the county recently.

Are there any abnormal astronomical phenomena?

Are there any powerful cultivators fighting nearby?

Unfortunately, everything was normal and there was no sign of the opportunity that Lu Zhiqiu was expecting.

……

Quicksand Village.

Two sword lights flashed by.

Then two ethereal-looking women stood at the entrance of the village.

Seeing it

The old man at the entrance of the village was stunned at first, but then he quickly realized that the immortals from the Jian Ji Sect had arrived.

He quickly called out the villagers to welcome them.

Facing everyone's enthusiasm.

Lu Zhiqiu and Wu Mengyu exchanged a glance, coughed twice, and said:

"Grandpa, we have a mission this time. After we finish our mission, we must hurry back to the sect to report. Please take us directly to the fields."

The old man has lived for most of his life.

It has also received many immortals from the Jianji Sect.

So I am not surprised by this direct approach.

Leading Lu Zhiqiu and the other two to the farmland, he pointed at the withered crops that had fallen over in a field with a heartache and said hoarsely:

"These are the rush stamens we planted. They have a certain spirituality and can be used as auxiliary ingredients for many medicinal pills. Usually every autumn, the immortals in charge of purchasing from the Jianji Sect come to buy them."

"It's summer now, and the rushes are so tender. We even have people hold up boards to shade them during the day and fan them, hoping for a good harvest in the fall so we can sell them for a good price."

The old man pointed to several large wooden boards placed aside.

It can indeed be seen that Liusha Village cares very much about these rushes.

"But a month ago, the rushes in the village withered overnight, just as you two have seen. This is killing us. What will we eat and drink next year?"

The old man pursed his lips, looking sad.

It turned out that what was planted was rush buds.

No wonder the sect takes it so seriously and offers a reward as a Qi training task.

After listening to the old man's introduction.

Lu Zhiqiu and Wu Mengyu looked at each other, and each used the spirit-detecting technique to scan the farmland.

No trace of magic was detected.

In other words, it was not a hostile sect coming to cause trouble.

This is trouble.

The land structure has not changed, and no magic has been cast on it.

So why do crops wither?

Wu Mengyu sat by the field, supporting his chin with a depressed look on his face.
