Chapter 246: The lousy lottery
Chapter 246: The lousy lottery
Half an hour later.
Gu Heng returned to the capital, to his room in Yunxiang Tower.
He sat back on the bed and ate the brown sugar cake he had made by himself in the back room of the clinic.
This newly unlocked "teleport" function is really useful!
It took him only a moment of distraction to get back to Yunling City from the capital. Is there any other convenient way of transportation in the world? !
I heard that those masters who have cultivated to the highest level can travel thousands or tens of thousands of miles with a single thought.
Gu Heng is still a mortal with no cultivation, but he can do it, although it costs a thousand points.
"Well, let me see what other good stuff you have..."
Gu Heng was eating the brown sugar cake, clicking on the mall interface, and looking at the last new item added to the system...function?
In the mall, only two functions are actually unlocked.
"This is..."
Gu Heng saw clearly what was written on it.
"Random Tianchi: Spend 10,000 points to select Tianchi, and get four random selection results, limited to once. Note: Tianchi contains all kinds of things!"
He rolled his eyes.
Isn't this a lottery? And you only get one chance to draw four consecutive times!
Although he felt that this random Tianchi was probably the only bad thing among all the good things in the system, it was still better than nothing, so Gu Heng did not hesitate any longer and directly chose to spend 10,000 points and start drawing!
"Obtain a 'Panlong Peach'!"
"Obtain a copy of 'Returning Stardust'!"
"Get a piece of 'Sacred Wood Slice'!"
"Obtain a copy of the 'Sword Master's Regret' side quest!"
Gu Heng suddenly felt that the brown sugar cake in his mouth was not sweet at all.
I am speechless.
"...Why can't you even take out a mission?"
It turns out that "Tianchi contains all kinds of things" really means that there is everything. Even tasks, which are extremely abstract and shouldn't even exist as entities, are stuffed in there for you to take, right?
Well done to the system!
But Gu Heng was too lazy to complain. He had gotten a lot of good things anyway, so it didn't matter if he couldn't get any good things.
Gu Heng was actually quite interested in picking out a task. After all, it meant that he had motivation again and could do something!So Gu Heng opened the task interface and found that there was indeed an extra task there.
It just looks gray and seems to have a very low priority. Compared with those "correction of fate star cause and effect", it seems to be on a completely different level.
No wonder it's called a side quest.
After all, the system also said that the task did not have to be completed, so it didn't matter if he didn't do it.
"The Sword Master's Regret: Helping the Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect to reunite with her best friend who disappeared 2,600 years ago."
"Task reward: depends on the situation."
Gu Heng was silent for a long time.
Is the system playing tricks on me?
Although this task is simple and clear, it doesn't seem to be easy to complete.
Gu Heng had of course heard of the Wanjian Immortal Sect. Even a mortal who couldn't practice cultivation would have heard of the famous name of "the number one sword sect in the world". But such a behemoth actually wanted a mere mortal like him to help its sect leader find her close friend who had been missing for more than two thousand years?
What resources and identity does he have?
If she couldn't find it after searching for so many years, it would be a miracle if she could find it herself!
Besides, the Wanjian Immortal Sect is too far away!
That sect is located in the Western Regions, at the junction of Mobei and Zhongzhou. The distance is so great that it pales in comparison with that of 180,000 miles. It would be impossible to reach that place even if I wore the magic boots and walked for a year or two.
If you want to go that far, you need to rely on a teleportation array, but if a mortal tries to use a teleportation array... he will die.
It will be torn apart by the force of space halfway.
"Forget it, let's put this task aside for now."
Gu Heng curled his lips and closed the task bar. Anyway, there was no time limit for this task and there was no rush to complete it.
He looked at the other three things he had pulled out.
Panlong peach is a big peach that looks juicy and must be delicious.
Guiyuan Stardust, according to Gu Heng's knowledge, this thing is fluorescent powder, and it is obvious at a glance that it is useless.
The piece of holy wood is indeed a piece of wood half the size of a palm. It smells good, but that's all.
Identified as all garbage!
But peaches are edible.
Gu Heng didn't wait. This fruit couldn't be kept for too long, so he had to eat it quickly while it was still juicy.
Hmmm, this peach tastes pretty good.
Halfway through the meal, the little silver cat he had raised jumped out of its nest and walked to his feet.Gu Heng: "...Awake?"
This cat has been sleeping ever since they arrived in the capital, but he didn't pay any attention to it. Anyway, this little thing also slept all day when she was in the clinic, waking up occasionally. So he used bedding to make a small nest for her and let her lie down in peace.
Oh, yes, she must be hungry.
After all, apart from feeding her a sugar pill that he made himself when he set out, he had never given her anything else to eat.
Thinking of this, Gu Heng was about to take out the sugar pill when he looked at the half-eaten peach in his hand.
"Eat this."
Gu Heng threw the peach to the little silver cat, and she jumped to catch it and started eating it on the spot.
"Eat slowly, and don't run around after you finish eating. I want to sleep."
This cat understands human nature and what people say, so Gu Heng felt relieved. He spread his hands, fell directly on the bed, and began to squint.
"...Is this the legendary Panlong Fairy Peach?!"
Su Jinxi ate a peach while suppressing her excitement.
She knew about this peach, but she never thought that she would have the good fortune to eat this magical fruit that only existed in the ancient times!
According to rumors, this peach grows on the Tongtian Panlong tree that only existed in the prehistoric times. Eating one can not only increase your lifespan by 5,000 years, but also improve your blood and transform you! Break through some kind of limit!
Su Jinxi could understand the above, but found it difficult to understand "breaking the boundaries".
Surely, she would find out soon enough...right?
Although only half of this Panlong peach is left.
Su Jinxi nibbled the peach slowly, and then the fur on her body began to slowly change to a purer jade color. The original silver mixed with light jade color of the fur began to become more refined!
Her fourth level demon body is about to evolve to the fifth level!
Su Jinxi was very excited.
I have been stuck in the third level of demon body for thousands of years. The moment I saw Gu Heng, I drank the Star-Moon Divine Water and evolved to the fourth level. Now, several months have passed, and I have accumulated so much medicinal power by taking one pill every day...
Has she finally reached this point?!
She opened her eyes, and a terrifying aura suppressed Su Jinxi's petite body and began to change silently.
...
At this time, neither Su Jinxi nor Gu Heng noticed.
Tonight, the stars in the sky are exceptionally bright.
There is a star that is particularly eye-catching.
The other one also seemed to be glowing at this moment...
