Chapter 44 Ordinary Mission: Eliminate Demons
The place to accept the black list mission is inside the three teams' base.
It is a building with a plaque of "Black Hall".
There is no one inside the building, but the walls are covered with large and small black cloths with flowing and flashing words on them.
"This is the sub-list of the magic weapon black list. All missions can be passed to the sub-list through the general list. As far as I know, the higher the ranking of the team, the better the mission assigned. These missions are generally divided into five types: ordinary, difficult, disaster, calamity, and catastrophe. Only the captain can accept the disaster and catastrophe missions."
Liu Jingyu scanned the various missions in the lobby and continued: "Today is the first day. You can just accept an ordinary mission. The more difficult government missions will be discussed later."
Yun Ye nodded and looked carefully.
Ordinary missions are written in white, which is clear at a glance.
"Ordinary task, escort the caravan through Hongshan to Luoyun Town, expected to take seven days. Reward, one contribution point, three thousand black copper."
"Ordinary task (government), the spiritual power of the spiritual spring west of Hongshan spreads, which may attract demons. It is necessary to send people to guard for three days starting on March 5th. Reward, one contribution point."
"Ordinary task, someone in the family of the wealthy businessman Xudonglian disappeared, suspected of being haunted by demons, hired to clean up. Reward, one contribution point, one thousand two hundred black copper."
Looking at everything, it stands out that he is rich and powerful.
If you don't count the aristocratic families, the status of spiritual cultivators is actually very high, and it is the guarantee of the lives and property of the rich landlords.
Therefore, they need to spend a lot of money to hire spiritual cultivators.
A few thousand black coppers are few?
In fact, it is written on the black list that there are a few thousand, but the real number is ten times or even twenty times higher.
As for where the money went...
Naturally, it went to the government.
Black Armor Spiritual Law is a worker who sells himself to the government. Collecting 90% tax is giving face to Black Armor Spiritual Law.
If it is a slave with no power who can earn so much money, at most he will be given a few copper coins to avoid starving to death.
But even if 90% tax is collected, Black Armor Spiritual Law is still rich. If he is strong, he can easily make tens of thousands a month.
You should know that the monthly income of civilians in Baishi Town is basically hovering in the hundreds. In comparison, Black Armor Spiritual Law is extremely comfortable, which is completely worthy of their life-and-death struggle.
——This is the view of people in this world.
Yun Ye is very clear that the Black Armor Army has a high income, which is essentially an exploitation of civilians. It’s just that the noble families exploit the civilians and then pass them on to the Black Armor Army.
He is now a member of the Black Armor Army. Even if the big head is taken away by the government, he has to maintain order spontaneously.
But if he were a commoner, not only would he be exploited on weekdays, but if a demon came, not only would his whole family die, but the noble families and the government would not take the initiative to protect him. Instead, they would continue to exploit him and make him pay to fight the demons.
This experience was very against the will of heaven.
The situation in Baishi Town was already obvious. The natural law was completely distorted and disorder was everywhere. If it were not for the ease of spiritual cultivators suppressing the lower classes, the war would have already begun.
…
Yun Ye picked and chose and found one that met his expectations.
"Ordinary task, people frequently disappeared in the back mountain of Qingzao Village. It was suspected that demons were appearing. The villagers hired them to clean up. The reward is one contribution point and five hundred black coppers."
Qingzao Village is farther away from Mingzhu Village, close to a mountain, and dangerous demons appear from time to time.
If this is not resolved, the demons may run to the Mingzhu Village area.
"Qingzao Village? There is not much money here. Are you sure you want to go?"
Liu Jingyu frowned.
"?"
Yun Ye showed a puzzled expression.
"You don't think that the Black Armor Spiritual Technique can be dealt with with just a few hundred or thousands of black coppers, do you? The government has taken away so much, we can always get it back from other places, and whether a place is rich or not is naturally one of the criteria for measuring the quality of the mission."
Liu Jingyu said lightly.
Yun Ye understood, but he shook his head, and the flame jumped: "(I'm not familiar with it yet, it doesn't matter.)"
"In this case, use the identity card to record it, so that other team members don't choose this mission again." Liu Jingyu didn't say much nonsense.
Yun Ye used the identity card to record the mission according to her instructions, and soon a red frame appeared outside the mission text on the black cloth, indicating that someone had accepted the mission.
After the mission was accepted, a lot of detailed text appeared on the identity card, explaining more specific situations.
For example, where is Qingzaozhuang, who is the manager of Qingzaozhuang, etc.
The two walked out and ran into Zhu Zhaohong and the other two. Zhu Zhaohong still looked sharp. When he saw Yun Ye, he casually mocked him:
"I heard that you lost to Li Shui yesterday. Don't be discouraged. He is just one of the good people of the Li family. He is not a big shot. You will see more in the future."
"(Thank you Zhu Lingfa for your trouble. I will work hard.)"
Yun Ye left a flame text and passed by Zhu Zhaohong.
"Hehe."
Zhu Zhaohong laughed and exchanged glances with Liu Jingyu. The two did not intend to speak, but there was no gunpowder smell.
The Zhu and Liu families are hostile to each other, but Liu Jingyu is too low-level, and Zhu Zhaohong does not look down on him at all.
...
Yun Ye and Liu Jingyu went down the mountain. On the way, Liu Jingyu suddenly said, "Zhu Zhaohong is the most gifted genius in the Zhu family in the past few decades. Her strength is far beyond Li Shui. You'd better not provoke her, lest I get into trouble!"
Yun Ye was shocked when he heard this. Zhu Zhaohong was stronger than Li Shui?
Could it be that Zhu Zhaohong also has dual spiritual roots?
"Our Zhu and Liu families are the strongest families in Baishi Town except for the Ji family. They master secrets that you can't imagine. Even if you are born with strange flames, it's nothing to our Zhu and Liu families. You won't have a good end if you are arrogant because of your talent."
Liu Jingyu glanced at Yun Ye.
Although she is weak, her knowledge is not comparable to that of ordinary people. She knows the horror of the family.
A genius may be able to make up for the gap of decades, but can it make up for the gap of hundreds of years?
Both the Zhu and Liu families have monsters who have lived for hundreds of years. There have been many geniuses in the past dynasties, and countless secrets have been created.
For example, the secret method that the Liu family is most proud of is the fusion of spiritual roots, the wind spiritual root of the second zodiac.
Compared with ordinary spiritual roots, the wind spiritual root of the second zodiac is invincible, and the weakest is ten times stronger than ordinary spiritual roots. Whether it is fighting or practicing, there is a qualitative evolution.
If her uncle Liu Wujing really wants to take action, he will only be stronger than Yu Wen and cannot be weaker.
Similarly, Zhu Zhaohong is also a super genius who inherited the core inheritance of the Zhu family and mastered the secret method of the fire spiritual root. Although it is unknown how far he has come, he can never be measured by the standards of a newcomer.
The two ran for dozens of kilometers and came to a hillside. Yun Ye looked over and said, "Is that Qingzaozhuang?"
In the valley ahead, there are many houses and curling smoke, full of rural atmosphere.
There are a large number of jujube trees planted here, and green fruits are hanging on the treetops.
Liu Jingyu nodded: "Yes!"
