0705_ Own work

In the end, Pei Cen did not come to the office to apply for the job. She made an agreement with Wu Heng that she would come to be Wu Heng's assistant whenever she wanted to do a task.If she is helpful in the task, she will be paid in proportion to the help she provided; if she is not helpful, she will not be paid;

Pei Cen: "If you think my assistant is in the way, you can refuse directly. I promise that I and my family will not cause any trouble for you."

Wu Heng: "It's not in the way, but it's really not fun to do tasks. Most of the time, you follow the process and it's very boring. Such as digging people's black history, looking for evidence of a lover's cheating, etc. are more exciting but easy to break the law. , other people will not entrust them to the Yunxiazong office. Oh, sometimes they entrust us to find missing children or people who may have died, but that often involves criminal cases, and our office will generally transfer it to the police, or At least it’s cooperating with the police, and it’s still not exciting.”

Pei Cen: "I didn't come here looking for excitement, I just... looking for something to do."

Wu Heng: "Understood, there is no problem, I will send you all the commissions I can bring with you, you can come whenever you want."

After Wu Heng handed in the previous batch of tasks, I selected another batch here. Based on familiar principles, after asking Wu Heng and not refusing, I gave him this batch again—as for some The staff muttered 'I also want to cooperate with Mr. Maoqiu'... It is said that the Yunxiazong office does not insist on fairness, Maoqiu chooses whoever is pleasing to the eye, so why change in the middle?

When I chose the task of finding things for all human beings, I was almost out of inertia, and suddenly a description that looked like my own job came into view.

Ghost hit the wall.

Many people have reported that sometimes people stay in the building where they work until after dark, and they will encounter ghosts hitting the wall, and they can't get out of the building no matter what.

Walking into the elevator, it was obviously the first floor, but when the elevator door opened, the floors that appeared were random except for the first floor.

No matter how you go down the stairs, you can only see the sign of the second floor at most, and then go down and you will return to a random floor except the first floor.

Some timid people jumped out of the window in fright, but when they landed, they returned to the floor where the window was opened.

In short, no matter how much he tossed all night, he was trapped in the building until dawn, and everything returned to normal again.

0706_Confirm

The main job of the monk staff in the office is to confirm whether the entrustment really belongs to the spiritual power category.If it belongs, it can be transferred to the Yunxiazong task office, and then the task office will arrange specific investigations and solutions.

If the staff is free and capable, they can also investigate and solve it by themselves, and finally hand over the whole process to the mission office, and the remuneration is also paid according to the rules.

So if you are lucky, you can do simple small tasks first when you are an office worker.

Of course, if you are unlucky, you may not be able to encounter simple tasks at all during your tenure, and even just checking whether it is a spiritual power task will still run into trouble at the Golden Core level, and you will be criticized by the task department if you get injured. Cross-border investigation without restraint.

"Am I really investigating? I was injured when I got close, I didn't see anything, and I haven't started the investigation yet, okay?" The office staff was very annoyed.

Mission: "Why didn't you stop approaching before you got hurt?"

Office staff: "Why don't you ask the troublemakers why they didn't put up warning signs outside their trouble spots?"

No matter how annoyed the office staff are, anyway, the mission office treats them as inexperienced, and they have to go deep into the enemy camp even to confirm whether there are spiritual fluctuations. medical bills.

——The contradiction between the manager and the managed is a stubborn disease that cannot be eliminated in any world or class.

"I'll take a look at this." I told my fellow monks.

They said: go, the task is simple, you can do it directly, we don't owe the task amount.

I don't owe it either, I just want to check it out.

Before I go, first, I have to get the cat back.

0707_Not a pet

"Ah... don't you want to do it?" Wu Heng asked, looking at Mao Qiu with reluctance.

Me: "Not necessarily, I found a mission that seems to be a monk. If I solve it quickly, I will let Maoqiu work with you when it is over. If my mission is delayed for too long, maybe I will return to Yunxiazong. "

Wu Heng: "I heard that some descendants of spirit beasts, due to genetic defects, have become spirit beasts that can be regarded as mortal beasts and can flow into the mortal world. Is there such a thing?"

Me: "The descendants of spirit beasts are mortal beasts. There are such things. However, it is hard to say whether it is considered a genetic defect, because it is like the offspring of monks who often do not have spiritual roots. They lack the entry requirements for cultivation. Spirit beasts Some of the descendants are also unable to exert the spiritual power they should have inherited because they do not have spiritual roots. This so-called mortal beast may become a spiritual beast if it encounters a certain stimulus or is intentionally washed. , so they are still classified as spirit beasts in many divisions, and it is not wrong to call them spirit beasts... Ah," I seem to have diverted the topic again, "What do you want to ask?"

Wu Heng: "...Oh, I want to ask, the kind of spirit beast that can be a mortal beast, I heard that its IQ is higher than ordinary animals, and can understand people's words? It's not as simple as 'sit down' and 'come' Instructions, but the kind of comprehension that can understand the meaning of complex sentences?"

Me: "It still depends on the species. But on average, they understand humans better than ordinary animals. But whether the IQ is higher is not necessarily true, because it may also be because their parents have established a mind connection with humans, which makes these mortal beasts more intelligent than ordinary animals. Easy to get close to humans."

Wu Heng: "Can I buy it?"

Ah, that's what you mean.Me: "My staff, it's not a big problem. I'll help you ask Beast Control Peak, what's your psychological price?"

Wu Heng: "One year's income."

In fact, there are many such mortal beasts on the Beast Control Peak, and many mortals come to buy such mortal beasts, and of course there are more spirit beasts.

Spiritual beasts with spiritual roots bred or captured by cultivation sects are generally not sold to mortals. As for mortal beasts that were spiritual beasts in the previous generation, they are generally not sold to private individuals, but will be handed over to those who can provide them with a clear understanding. Organizations where you work, such as the police.

Yunxiazong also has this kind of transaction with the mortal world. Anyway, Beast Riding Peak, Hunting Peak, and the Misty Secret Realm incidentally, such mortal beasts without spiritual roots will be born from time to time.If you don't sell them, treat them as weak spirit beasts with no potential for development, or use them for extra meals; if someone comes to buy them, pick some and sell them.

As Wu Heng said, mortal beasts with the blood of spirit beasts are inherently easier to understand humans, and although their lifespans are lower than spirit beasts, they are higher than ordinary mortal beasts of the same kind.They are stronger, have better senses, and are great assistants—and more expensive, of course.

"But you have to make sure you're buying it for a job, not as a pet," I said.

Wu Heng nodded: "Of course, I can't help wanting an animal assistant just because I have personally experienced the strength of Mr. Fuqiu's help."

Me: "I will be supervised."

Wu Heng: "No problem, I don't keep pets."

0708_breeding

I contacted Yan Ziqi and asked her to negotiate a deal with Wu Heng, because I was sure that Yan Ziqi had the mortal beast that Wu Heng wanted, the long-tailed hamster that Yan Ziqi brought back from Yuhe.

As we all know, whether it is a hamster or a mouse, their reproduction speed is very frightening. Although the reproduction speed of spirit beasts is greatly discounted like that of monks, due to the huge base number before the discount, it is still relatively easy for rat spirit beasts to give birth to cubs , and the general rule still applies: the lower the cultivation base, the less difficult it is to give birth.

In Yuhe, even people's cultivation is so-so, let alone hamsters. By the time Yan Ziqi left Yuhe, she took a pair of adult hamsters from her little friend Prince Yushen to take them away. The next litter of five little hamsters made up a whole family.

The pair of adult hamsters are spirit beasts, in the Qi training period, and among their five children, only one is a spirit beast, and the others are mortal beasts.After returning to Yunxiazong, the pair of hamsters continued to give birth. There were few spirit beasts and many mortal beasts, and the younger they were, the less beautiful they were from the seven brought out from Yuhe——Yuhe The beautiful Feng Shui is really not the same.

These little things were treated by the elders of Yushou Peak as children's practice toys, and Yan Ziqi raised them herself, so Yan Ziqi has complete control over the bunch of hamsters, and she doesn't need to go through others if she wants to give or sell them to anyone. agree.

In good conscience, Yan Ziqi is well-raised, so many hamsters, she didn't send even one to the secret place around the fog to rescue.Whether it is a spirit beast or a mortal beast, she raises it very carefully and is very caring.Most of the brothers and sisters with dark histories in Yushou Peak should feel ashamed of Yan Ziqi's meticulousness.

However, from the perspective of a beast master, Yan Ziqi was a little too meticulous.It's okay to be careful with spirit beasts, although the hamster's cultivation is so low that it is better than nothing, but you are so careful with mortal beasts, is it a bit distracting?

Yan Ziqi: "Shen Chen gave it to me, I promised him that I will take good care of it."

Brothers and sisters of Yushou Peak: Sister Yan, the reproductive ability of the rats is too embarrassing for the spirit beasts, you have to let them restrain themselves...

Yan Ziqi: "I want to raise them well and let them live freely."

I am sure that Yushoufeng would like someone to buy those hamsters that were born out of restraint, otherwise they would have to be reported to the Misty Realm with Yan Ziqi behind their backs sooner or later.
