Chapter 173 Mission Completed
In the next few days, the three of them traveled smoothly and did not encounter any monsters again.
Finally, thirteen days after leaving Qianyangfang City, Xu Feng and the others finally arrived at their destination - Wangyue Lake.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, the crucian carp crossing the river is on your right, don't let it escape."
"Where is it? Why didn't I see it?"
"Right behind you, yes, Fellow Daoist Xu, you can also help and drive it into the fishing net I have set up.
Okay, we caught them. Six of them were caught in this net. Including the ones we caught before, we have exceeded the mission goal of ten. "
"Is that enough? Let's go back to the shore first. It feels unsafe to stay on the lake. I heard that there are rumors that there are second-level monsters lurking under Moon Moon Lake!"
Seeing that it was successfully completed, Xu Feng planned to leave here immediately. After all, he had his own things to do when he came out this time.
"Okay, let's go back to the shore first."
Chu Tianhong glanced at Hong Hao who had put away the fishing net, nodded, and then the three of them flew to the shore with their swords.
The area of Wangyue Lake is quite large, fifteen or sixteen miles at its longest point, and eleven or twelve miles at its widest point. There are all kinds of first-level, middle- and low-grade spiritual fish and shrimps living in it.
The crucian carp crossing the river is considered to have the most delicious meat among them. Xu Feng often heard people say this when he was in Tianyunfang City.
In order to eat the crucian carp that crosses the river, there is a greedy monk who will come here to hunt monsters and catch this kind of spiritual fish to eat.
It was noon when the three of them arrived at the lake, and they spent two hours meditating to restore their spiritual power.
Then it took more than half a day to catch the crucian carp crossing the river, and it was already late at night.
At this moment, the full moon was in the sky, and Xu Feng looked towards the lake in front of him.
I saw the clear and clear lake water and the blue light of the moon complement each other, just like a harmonious picture of water and sky of the same color, jade and jade without dust.
"It's so beautiful!"
Hong Hao, who was standing next to Xu Feng, also admired the beautiful night scene.
When Chu Tianhong heard the two of them standing there staring at the lake endlessly, she curled her lips in disdain, coughed twice and said:
“Two fellow Taoists, it’s not too late to see the beautiful scenery later. Can we take the crucian carp that crosses the river out of the fishing net first?
The mission is about live fish. If we bring dead fish back, we have no way to explain it to our employer. "
Xu Feng and Xu Feng smiled at each other after hearing this, and then Hong Hao handed the fishing net to Chu Tianhong and asked her to collect the spirit fish first.
As we all know, storage bags can only hold dead things, not living things, because they violate the rules of the immortal world.
So if you want to carry living things with you, you have to find another way.
Finally, the great masters in the world of immortality refined special spirit beast bags to carry various living spirit beasts.
The price of a spirit beast bag is several times that of a storage bag, and a monk of average worth cannot afford it.
Xu Feng could afford it, but he didn't raise any spiritual beasts, so he didn't have one either.
But Chu Tianhong was different. Her identity was a first-level mid-level beast master, and she had a spirit beast bag hanging on her left and right waist.
And this is why Xu Feng feels that her identity is not simple. The investment in beast mastering is greater than that in alchemy. Without strong power, becoming a beast master is simply a daydream.
After Chu Tianhong put away the crucian carp crossing the river, the three of them sat together and began to discuss the next trip.
Logically speaking, there seems to be nothing to discuss about this.
Since the mission was successfully completed, it was only right to take the spirit fish back as soon as possible, hand over the mission, and then wait to receive the reward.
But the three of them had other plans besides catching spiritual fish.
"It's rare to come to a place so far away from Fangshi, and I feel a little unwilling to return like this!"
Xu Feng didn't beat around the bush and said it directly.
"Brother Xu means, do you have to stay here?"
Hong Hao asked with a half-smile. The three of them actually knew each other's thoughts, but no one wanted to point it out.
"That's right. Now that you've come out, you can't go back empty-handed. I believe you two traveled thousands of miles to come here for the mission reward of a mere hundred spiritual stones, right?"
Xu Feng nodded and replied.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I'm happy. In fact, the reason why I took on this mission this time was mainly to get the experience of hunting monster beasts.
But I was afraid of encountering danger when traveling alone, so I accepted a mission and prepared to travel together to avoid risks. "
Chu Tianhong also covered her mouth and smiled.
"Okay, then let's rest by the lake tonight and set out to find our targets tomorrow.
How about we meet back here when we have a satisfactory harvest, and then go back to Fangshi together? "
Hong Hao suggested.
"That's very good, but you have to set a time limit. It can't be indefinite, right? What do you think of a one-month limit?"
Xu Feng then suggested that he didn't know how long it would take to get the Xuan Binghua, so he set a more relaxed time limit.
"One month? Okay, just one month."
The other two pondered for a while and then all agreed.
"By the way, didn't the total number of spirit fish we caught exceed the ten required for the mission? How about I suggest roasting and eating the extra fish?"
After the business was settled, Xu Feng suggested.
He had been salivating over this legendary first-order mid-grade spiritual fish with extremely delicious meat, and now he had the opportunity to taste it, so how could he miss this opportunity.
"Okay, there are exactly three more, one for each of us."
"I have spiritual charcoal and various seasonings here, let's start now!"
The other two did not object, but strongly supported it. It seems that when faced with delicious food, the reactions of these Qi-refining monks who have not yet practiced fasting are similar.
After the spiritual fish was roasted, Hong Hao also suggested drinking some spiritual wine, but it was rejected by the other two. After all, they were in the wilderness now. If they were not careful and drank too much, they would be in trouble if they encountered danger.
In this way, after swallowing a delicious spiritual fish, the three of them sat on the ground in a triangle shape with their backs to each other, holding spiritual stones in their hands, and began to restore their magic power.
Although they had restored it once when they arrived before, they consumed a lot when catching spiritual fish just now.
In the outer area of the Wanshan Mountains where monsters are rampant, it is very necessary to keep sufficient magic power in the Dantian at all times.
When the first ray of sunlight of the sun shone on the lake the next day, the three people who had been meditating all night opened their eyes one after another.
"Brother Xu, I wonder which way you are going next? If we are going the same way, we can go together."
When they were about to part, Hong Hao asked.
"I'm going west. I remember when we passed by here, there were many monsters gathering there. It's a good place to hunt monsters."
Xu Feng said this deliberately. In fact, his real destination was to go north.
"Forget it, I don't have your skills, brother Xu. I'd better find some places where monsters are less frequented for training!
My two Taoist friends, see you in a month, take care!"
"Take care!"
After saying goodbye to each other, three different escape lights rose from the ground and went in different directions.
