Chapter 1928: You guys are truly not picky eaters
The two old codgers looked at each other and smiled, their mouths constantly emitting weird laughter.
This time Hong Zun had indeed been a big help, handing over all those troublesome low-star tasks to those prodigies, and without having to pay anything, it was truly a case of getting something for nothing.
Not far away, some disciples and deacons looked at the two people laughing weirdly and had complex expressions.
We are, after all, a dignified human Sacred Ground. If this were to get out, where would the Sacred Ground's face go?
People came to participate in the sect entry assessment, and you guys did well, directly turning them into free labor.
This heart is truly black.
Completely unaware of the inside story, the many prodigies had long since scattered.
The tasks Hong Zun gave had another common feature, which was that they were far away.
Just the journey alone would take a lot of time.
Like Qian Duoduo, holding the jade slip, it took a full six days to reach the so-called Li Family Village.
"What kind of bird-forsaken place is this? The nearest city is three days away."
Qian Duoduo didn't care about spirit stone consumption at all on this journey; if there was a teleportation array, he used it.
But even so, the nearest teleportation array to Li Family Village was three days away, which directly paralyzed him.
This task looked simple, but just the journey alone took Qian Duoduo so much time.
When he finally arrived at Li Family Village and saw the village chief, upon asking, Qian Duoduo was directly stunned on the spot.
"Village Chief, what you just said was..."
"Cough, cough, sorry, maybe this old man didn't explain clearly. It's like this: the evil spirit has indeed harmed many people, but I haven't had any clues until now, so I have to trouble the Immortal to take action to find and capture the evil spirit for us."
Huh???
Damn it, this Li Family Village doesn't even know the type, grade, or characteristics of the evil spirit. How the hell am I supposed to investigate?
Qian Duoduo looked blankly at the old village chief, his heart full of complexity.
How could such a complex task only be a one-star level?
And, the task description didn't say it only required taking down these evil spirits; why did he have to do everything now?
Probably guessing what Qian Duoduo was thinking, the old village chief couldn't help but blush, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"That, our village is really too poor, so... the reward is naturally a bit less. If the Immortal doesn't mind, this old man still has two pieces of old cured meat at home; the Immortal can take them back to have a snack."
Huh???
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo shook his head blankly. I'm a damn cultivator, seeking longevity, coming from ten thousand miles away to do a task for you, and you give me two pieces of old cured meat?
But even though he was helpless in his heart, Qian Duoduo could only nod and agree.
After all, this was related to his sect entry assessment. If he couldn't complete the task, he wouldn't be able to join the Dao One Sacred Ground.
But he still couldn't help complaining in his heart: what is the situation with this Sacred Ground, why do they accept any task?
Qian Duoduo didn't know that because of this, this task had been sitting in the Task Hall, and not even a dog would look at it.
If it weren't for this mountain-opening recruitment, and Hong Zun thinking of this trick, this task would probably still be gathering dust in the Task Hall.
"Alright, then can you tell me the course of events, old man?"
"This... there is no course of events."
"Not even a course of events?"
"No, by the time we discovered it, the people were already dead."
"What about clues in other aspects?"
"None either."
Well, there was nothing, just knowing that people had died. Qian Duoduo was directly depressed. Helplessly, he asked if he could see the corpses.
Hearing this, the old village chief nodded this time. Seeing this, Qian Duoduo felt a bit better; he should be able to find some clues from the corpses, right?
But when he followed the old village chief to the back mountain of the village and looked at the few graves before him, Qian Duoduo was stunned.
"This... wouldn't be..."
"Yes, the few victims are all buried here. Did the Immortal see anything?"
Looking at the few graves before him, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but want to curse.
I'm looking at a few tombstones, what can I see? Are you damn well teasing me?
He looked at the old village chief with gloomy eyes, and the old village chief said with an expectant face.
"Does the Immortal need me to prepare anything? Do you need to set up an altar for divination?"
Heh.
At this, Qian Duoduo was directly angered into laughter. Set up an altar for divination? I don't know how to do that stuff; that's for con artists.
"No need, find someone to come and open the coffin for an autopsy."
"Ah, you want to open the coffin?"
This time it was the old village chief's turn to be helpless. The people in the village all valued being laid to rest in peace, and now that the deceased had already been buried, opening the coffin again, he was afraid the villagers wouldn't be happy.
Thinking of this, the old village chief tentatively asked Qian Duoduo.
"Can't the Immortal use Immortal means? Like calculating heavenly secrets, predicting fortune and misfortune, and so on?"
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo's eyelids twitched wildly. Calculating heavenly secrets? Do you think heavenly secrets are so easy to calculate?
Let alone me, even if you called a Saint, he probably wouldn't be able to calculate any heavenly secrets.
Gritting his teeth, Qian Duoduo replied.
"I don't know how."
Seeing this, the old village chief's eyes became strange, clearly carrying a hint of scrutiny, as if saying: are you really an Immortal? You don't even know how to calculate heavenly secrets?
But he naturally didn't dare to say these words, so the old village chief could only accompany him with a smile.
"The Immortal has traveled a long way, why not rest for a while, and I will discuss it with the people in the village, how about that?"
"Fine."
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo said, suppressing his temper.
Soon, Qian Duoduo was arranged to stay at the old village chief's house, and at the same time, a group of villagers also rushed over to the front hall.
Looking at the old village chief in the main seat, they asked suspiciously.
"Village Chief, why do we need to open the coffin?" ===== CHAPTER 1929 =====
