Shen Luo ignored the people around him, his eyes swept over Ghost-Hunting List's list, and quickly stopped at one task.
"I will take over the task from Chengxi Mellow Fragrance Winery." Shen Luo walked to the task table and said.
"Yes, arrange it immediately." The Bai Family manager behind the desk also had a completely different attitude from before. He put on a flattering smile on his face and immediately took out the task book to record it.
Shen Luo After completing the registration, he walked towards his residence under the escort of everyone's eyes.
When he returned to the house, he took out the talisman paper he just bought from his arms and placed Talisman Ink on the table. After calming down for a while, he took a piece of talisman paper and began to draw Minor Thunder Talisman.
He painted all day long, and did not stop until evening. There was a thick stack of Minor Thunder Talisman on the right hand side, with more than thirty pictures. There were more talismans on the left hand side, but they were all failures.
"I draw more than thirty Minor Thunder Talismans in one day, which can be exchanged for more than two Immortal Jades, but the speed is not bad." Shen Luo muttered to himself, put away the talismans, and then closed his eyes to rest.
After nightfall, he got up and walked out of White Residence, heading toward the west of the city by familiar routes. He soon came to a large winery, showed his identity, and entered the winery.
Less than half an hour later, bursts of thunderous sounds continued to be heard from the village, mixed with the screams of ghosts, which soon disappeared in a low tone.
A moment later, Shen Luo came out of the winery, his face was quite pale, half of his right sleeve was missing, and he looked quite embarrassed.
"Without the help of senior Horse Face, it would be very difficult to face these ghosts alone." He raised his right hand and found three long scars on his arm. The skin and flesh were rolled, but not much blood was shed.
Although the cultivation level of the ghost this time was not too high, it was just like Early Grain-Bigug Stage, but its tracks were mysterious and its movements were like wind. Even though his Slanting Moon Step level was already high and he tried to be as cautious as possible, he was still injured by it. An ordinary monk would not be able to take it down without two or three Fasting Stage monks leading the team.
Fortunately, he prepared enough Minor Thunder Talisman, and eventually he was able to kill it by force.
He turned his left hand over and found a white bead filled with yin energy. It was naturally the object that the ghost condensed yin energy into.
"Anyway, the mission is completed, five pieces of Immortal Jade are in hand." A hint of joy flashed on Shen Luo's face, and he quickened his pace towards the Bai Family.
In the next few days, he spent the day at home drawing symbols, and at night he would occasionally take on some tasks that he felt he was sure of. After excluding the losses, the speed at which he earned Immortal Jade was also quite astonishing. He could often earn more than five yuan in Immortal Jade in one day.
However, after nearly two months of joint extermination led by three major families, the situation in Jianye City and nearby counties and towns has finally changed a lot. The number of existing ghosts has become less and less, almost to zero, and at the same time, no new ghost troubles have been reported.
Of course, towards the last moment, the competition among the three companies became more and more fierce, and some tasks that originally seemed a bit thankless were quickly eliminated.
Jianye City residents naturally discovered this change quickly. While they were overjoyed, they gradually resumed their original daily life and work.
It was not until the Beginning of Winter that the government officially announced that the Jianye City ghost trouble had been eliminated, and peace was completely restored inside and outside the city.
The residents held a grand celebration, with lights and colorful decorations everywhere in the city, to celebrate that the ghost trouble had been eliminated, and everyone laughed heartily.
The three great exorcism families, Bai, Lin and Du, have greatly increased their reputation because of their active efforts in exterminating ghosts everywhere. Bai Family was awarded the title of Jianye City "Number One Demon-Exorcising Family" by the government for exorcising the most ghosts.
White Residence In a study room in the inner courtyard, Bai Hecheng, Bai Jiangfeng, and some of the Bai Family's highly respected uncles and core disciples gathered here.
There is a large golden plaque placed on a large table in the study room, which reads, "Number One Demon-Exorcising Family", six majestic gilt characters.
"Many days of hard work have finally paid off, and the title Number One Demon-Exorcising Family is well deserved!" Bai Hecheng said with a hearty smile as he looked at the plaque on the table.
When the others heard this, their faces showed excitement.
"Number One Demon-Exorcising Family" not only sounds good, Bai Family has also received many benefits promised by the government, and its power has greatly increased, even overwhelming the Lin and Du families is just around the corner.
"Master of the family, Bai Family can achieve such an achievement only because of the joint efforts of the whole family. Those who have made meritorious deeds should be rewarded, especially those who are guests, and they should be good at recruiting." Bai Jiangfeng suggested.
"Yes. Everyone here will be rewarded later. Those guests who participated in the Hidden Wind Valley mission will each be rewarded with ten pieces of Immortal Jade." Bai Hecheng announced with a wave of his hand.
"Thank you so much, Master!" Bai Family Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this and hurriedly thanked him.
"Although the ghost trouble has been eliminated, you cannot relax your vigilance. From today on, while we, Bai Family Great Strength, are developing, we must also start hoarding supplies to prevent another big change from happening. The Lin and Du families need to be more vigilant." Bai Hecheng said in a deep voice with a solemn expression.
"Yes!" Bai Family Everyone agreed in unison.
Early the next morning.
"Thank you, the second elder, for sending it in person. I would like to express my gratitude to the head of the family." Shen Luo was in the small courtyard. He sent Bai Jiangfeng to the entrance of the courtyard, saying words of thanks.
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Shen, you deserve all this." Bai Jiangfeng smiled and quickly said goodbye and left.
Shen Luo walked around the room and picked up a small cloth bag on the table. It was just delivered by Bai Jiangfeng. It contained ten pieces of Immortal Jade.
Since there is no ghost exorcism mission, his rate of earning Immortal Jade has been greatly reduced. For the upcoming Ghost Market, he has to draw Minor Thunder Talisman day and night.
In fact, after the ghost trouble disappeared, the sales volume of Minor Thunder Talisman also dropped sharply. Fortunately, Shopkeeper Ma is very trustworthy and did not lower the price of Minor Thunder Talisman. In this regard, Immortal Jade's revenue did not decrease. After all, many people still understand the principle of being prepared.
"Forget it, just make as much as you can." Shen Luo sighed secretly, took all the talismans he drew yesterday, got up and went out, and soon arrived outside the Treasure Record Hall, with a look of surprise on his face.
I saw the Treasure Record Hall store door ajar, the windows inside were closed, and there were no lights on. The light was dim, as if something had happened.
His heart skipped a beat, Treasure Record Hall was now the only place where he could earn Immortal Jade, so nothing could happen to him, so he hurried in.
There were no changes anywhere in the store. Shopkeeper Ma and Ma Xiuxiu were standing next to the counter, discussing something in a low voice with heavy expressions.
"Master Shen, are you here to deliver the talismans again?" Shopkeeper Ma saw Shen Luo coming in, and hurriedly put on a smile and came forward.
Shen Luo Although Shopkeeper Ma felt that Shopkeeper Ma's smile was a little strange, he was relieved when he saw that everything in the store was as usual. He took out thirty Minor Thunder Talisman from his arms and handed it over.
"Master Shen's skill in drawing talismans is really amazing. He can draw so many talismans every day, even a skilled talisman master is far behind." Shopkeeper Ma took Minor Thunder Talisman, took out two pieces Immortal Jade and handed them over.
Shen Luo smiled slightly, did not answer the call, took Immortal Jade and put it away.
"Shopkeeper Ma, at this hour, the store is still not open. Could something have happened?" He looked around and asked.
"Don't mention it. I've had bad luck recently. A batch of goods in the store were robbed by a group of thieves, causing heavy losses." Shopkeeper Ma sighed.
"Where was he intercepted? Is there anyone who can report it to the police?" Shen Luo asked.
"I was robbed by a group of water bandits in the Lishui River, which is eighty miles away from Jianye City. If something like this happened, I would naturally have reported it to the officials. However, the thieves were extremely cunning. They intercepted the goods and left without leaving any traces. The government has sent people to check, but no clues were found." Shopkeeper Ma shook his head and said.
Shen Luo fell silent after hearing this.
