Chapter 243
The Huangfu Ergou in front of him was clearly an old Daoist with white hair and a youthful face. His face was glowing red and he had the demeanor of a celestial being.
Moreover, Meng Jingtian found him in the most prosperous area of Xuan Lin City, in the most luxurious mansion. He was definitely a nouveau riche!
“You... are Huangfu Ergou?”Although the words “Huangfu Ergou”floated above the old Daoist’s head from the information he had read, Meng Jingtian still confirmed it.
Upon hearing his question, Huangfu Ergou’s face darkened and he coughed dryly, “Exalted goddess, are you called Master Longhu?”
“Uh, okay, ergou!”Meng Jingtian took a look. This fellow indeed had a title, master longhu. Moreover, he was a level 120 high-level NPC!
“May I know why the exalted Goddess is looking for me?”Huangfu Buttface glanced at Meng Jingtian and asked.
“I have a box here. Look, can you help me open it?”Meng Jingtian took out the mysterious ancient mahogany box and asked.
“This is...”when Huangfu Buttface saw the box, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, he asked, “A few days ago, the Chou Family Chamber of Commerce contacted the old Daoist about this box. I wonder how this box fell into the hands of the exalted goddess?”
“What? Dog Two, do you have a problem with this?”Meng Jingtian narrowed his eyes and asked.
Huangpu and dog two’s faces turned black again. “I don’t dare! Please come into the House of God!”
Meng Jingtian followed Huangpu and dog two into the house.
In front of the Huangpu Mansion’s entrance, the players who happened to see this scene immediately shouted.
“Quick, come and take a look! Someone has entered the house with the old Taoist Dog Slayer! Did he trigger some hidden mission?”
“Really? The old dog-beating Taoist priest has such a weird temper. How could someone trigger his mission? Last time, I saw him walking on the street. I wanted to give it a try, but when he saw my surname was Gou, he slapped me to death!”
“What are you doing? Last Time I met him at the city Lord’s mansion, I wanted to go up and talk to him, but I was slapped to death! Guess what? He said my pet is a White Wolf!”
“Er... brother, you are being wronged! What did the wolf do to him?”
“How the Hell Should I know? My Bad Friends said that wolves are close relatives of dogs...”
Meng Jingtian naturally didn’t know that as he entered the house with Huangfu Ergou, the Huangfu Mansion was in an uproar. One Dog on the left and one dog on the right were barking.
“Pa da!”Huangfu ergou, who was fiddling with the wooden box on the chair, frowned and opened the box as fast as he could.
He was even a little surprised that he could open the box so quickly. He was really a genius!
“Alright, Exalted Goddess! This object is called the compass. It can guide the gathering place of the spirit veins in the world!”Huangfu Ergou took out a black round iron plate from the wooden box and stuffed it into Meng Jingtian’s hand. Without waiting for him to ask, he explained.
“The place where the spiritual veins converge? That’s it?”To be honest, Meng Jingtian was a little disappointed. After all, it was something that Zhan Ying cared about very much!
“Exalted goddess, what do you think?”Huangpu ergou glanced at Meng Jingtian in annoyance and asked in return.
Meng Jingtian threw a divine examination technique onto the compass and began to examine it.
Nine Dragons Compass (divine rank) : guides the places where all the spiritual veins in the world converge.
Cooldown time: 24 hours
It was exactly as Huangpu ergou said. This broken plate was only used to guide the gathering place of the spirit veins. It was actually a divine rank plate, and its cooldown time was even longer than the Sky Mystic Armor!
“Thank you, Priest Ergou!”Meng Jingtian looked disappointed. He took the broken plate and stood up to bid farewell to Huangpu Ergou.
This name was really well-chosen. The more he called it, the more fluent it became.
“Please, God!”The corner of Huangpu Ergou’s mouth twitched. He stood up and sent Meng Jingtian out of the door.
“Holy Sh * t! Look, Look! That person walked out of the door! Did he really receive a mission?”
The players outside Huangpu mansion exclaimed when they saw Meng Jingtian come out.
Because they were in the city, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, Meng Jingtian used Shi Lezhi’s identity.
“Hey! Brother, what mission did you receive from the old dog-fighting priest? Reveal It?”
“Old dog-fighting priest?”Meng Jingtian was puzzled.
“It’s master longhu! Don’t you know? Old dog-fighting priest fights every dog he sees. People in the jianghu call him the old dog-fighting priest,”the player explained.
“There’s no mission. I just asked him for a favor.”Meng Jingtian laughed and shook his head when he heard that.
Npcs could set their name to appear in front of players. It could be either a title or their real name.
Obviously, Huangpu Ergou’s name was master longhu in front of these players.
As for himself, because the Sky Mystic Armor’s default notification showed the NPC’s real name, he saw Huangpu Ergou’s name.
“Help?”The player raised his voice again.
Npcs in “Tomorrow”had a lot of “Friendliness.”If their favorability was low, they wouldn’t even be able to receive quests, let alone help.
“Brother, how did you get a favorable impression of the old Taoist dog? I’ll pay 100 dollars to reveal it!”The player asked eagerly.
Don’t look at how they beat up the old Taoist dog and how he barked. No matter what, Huangpu Ergou was a level 120 NPC, the highest level NPC in Mystic Lin City. The benefits he had were naturally more than the benefits of low-level npcs.
“You’re overthinking it! 100 yuan. You should keep it for yourself!”Meng Jingtian glanced at this person, patted him on the shoulder, and left.
100 yuan was actually quite a lot for an ordinary person. After all, he could only receive a living allowance of over 2,000 yuan a month.
Unfortunately, 100 yuan was really too little for the current Meng Jingtian. He didn’t even have the mood to chat with this player.
After leaving Xuan Lin City, Meng Jingtian simply took out the compass and tried it out.
On the pitch-black compass, a dark light flashed. A needle kept rotating on the patterns and words that Meng Jingtian couldn’t understand and then stopped.
Fortunately, because it was a game, Meng Jingtian didn’t need to understand it. He just needed to look at the map and guide it.
Opening the virtual map, a small red dot appeared on it. It was the so-called gathering place of spiritual veins that the compass had just detected.
The location of the Red Dot was not far. Three thousand meters away, it was in a mountain forest near Xuan Lin City.
...
Meng Jingtian summoned Dark Phoenix and rushed towards the small red dot on the map.
The function of the compass really disappointed him. However, what was the meaning of this gathering place of spirit veins? It was worth the Warhawk’s attention. He also wanted to see it.
Three thousand meters was like a distance in front of a divine level mount like Dark Phoenix. With a flap of its wings, it reached its destination in less than a minute.
