Chapter 97 This mission must be... so simple? !
There were a bit too many people.
Before, Chu Lu just wanted to get there as soon as possible and didn't think about anything along the way. After arriving at the destination and looking at the scene in front of him, he suddenly realized that there was another problem.
How should he find the invading female video character?
Three days have passed since the invasion of female characters. As long as the latter has any brains, they should have figured out the situation and hidden themselves by now.
There are at least 50,000 to 60,000 people in this county, so it will not be easy to find him.
Especially since his mission was quite special, it was taken by force and he had very little time.
If he is delayed here for too long and exceeds the task time limit, there is no guarantee that he will not arouse suspicion in the sect, and even send people to investigate and take him back by force.
Then it's really over.
Chu Lu was not without ideas.
He was thinking about posting a list and offering rewards for pairs. The first couplet would change from odd to even, and whoever could answer the quadrant would be the one who had passed through.
But when he thought about it carefully, this trick might not work.
After all, there are many non-travelers and non-urban protagonists in the female channel, and he also has to consider whether the other party is vigilant. Will doing so alert others?
The more Chu Lu thought about it, the more he realized how difficult this task was.
Although he doesn't intend to back down, he is not optimistic enough to think that he will succeed.
His heart was heavy, and as he walked forward, he prepared for the worst in his mind.
Think about how you would respond if the task failed.
After all, it would be too difficult to find a specific person among tens of thousands of people who might be deliberately concealing it in just a few days, unless the other party takes the initiative to self-destruct, but how is this possible?
Chu Lu sighed.
At this time, a girl passed by Chu Lu and happened to pass by a beggar. She saw that the beggar was pitiful, so she threw a copper plate over.
The beggar lowered his head and glanced at the copper plate still spinning on the ground, and said with a hint of coolness on his dirty face: "Woman, you are playing with fire."
Girl: "Huh?"
Chu Lu paused: "Huh?"
The girl said in confusion: "You beggar is so strange. What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't your head broken?"
The beggar showed another sneer: "Haha, woman, you are still pretending. Very good, you have attracted my attention!"
Chu Lu: "??"
The girl took two steps back, with a look of disgust on her face: "Idiot, you are so unlucky."
She turned around and wanted to leave, but the beggar suddenly stood up and reached out to grab the girl: "What are you doing? Do you think you can escape? From today on, you can only belong to me!"
The girl suddenly turned pale. She tried to struggle but couldn't get away, so she shouted in horror: "Help, help, the beggar is being rude!"
The expressions of passers-by on the street changed immediately when they heard this.
The people in this small county town were simple and unsophisticated, and they couldn't stand this kind of thing. Immediately, several strong men rolled up their sleeves and rushed over. They punched the beggar in the face, causing his nose to bleed.
But the beggar showed no fear and said nonchalantly: "I'm warning you. Don't challenge my bottom line, you can't bear it."
The strong men suddenly became even more angry.
"Damn, a stinky beggar is so arrogant, everyone, come on!"
Everyone swarmed up, pushed the beggar to the ground and beat him for a while before leaving.
Chu Lu: "..."
He walked up to the beggar who was beaten so hard that he couldn't even stand up. His face showed three parts shock, three parts hesitation and four parts prayer: "Well... you are not the president of a certain company, are you?"
A flash of sharpness suddenly flashed across the beggar's bruised and swollen face: "How do you know?"
Chu Lu's mood suddenly became complicated.
######
After that, he found a random place to stay, pulled the beggar over, and used two spells to heal the flesh wounds on his body and remove the stains on his body.
"Huh? Are you a Taoist priest?" The domineering president raised his eyebrows, "Yes, you have some ability. From now on, work for me. What I can give you is far beyond your imagination. If you refuse, you will no longer be in this world. A place of refuge!”
Chu Lu: "..."
He slapped the domineering president directly.
The domineering president was stunned for a moment, then became furious and wanted to fight back. Chu Lu pushed him to the ground and beat him violently. He continued beating him until he honestly admitted his mistake, and Chu Lu stopped.
Standing up again, the overbearing president is much more honest.
"I'll ask you questions, do you understand?"
"Um."
"The more detailed you are about your identity, the better."
The domineering president then told about his identity and background.
It was a rather old-fashioned background. The overbearing president claimed to be Li Tingyu and was the only son of the Li family. This Li family business has deep roots and wide reach, covering many key areas such as real estate, finance, technology, etc. The Wang family went bankrupt as soon as the weather got cold.
"How did you get here? What is your purpose?"
The domineering president shook his head and said he didn't know.
He claimed that his wife was having a caesarean section and he rushed to the hospital to get the doctor to stop because he wanted a child born at an auspicious time. However, before he could reach the hospital, he was involved in a car accident.
After that, when he opened his eyes again, he came to this place.
As for how he encountered obstacles at every turn and became a beggar in just three days, there is no need to say more. It is too insulting to wisdom.
After hearing this, Chu Lu frowned. He suddenly thought of Cuihua.
Different people, different genders, but almost the same situation.
This is by no means a coincidence, there must be some special circumstances behind it.
After that, Chu Lu interrogated him several more times. When he saw that he couldn't find anything out, he handed the domineering president over to the chat group.
The process of handing in is very simple. After opening the chat group, there is a pop-up window asking whether to hand in. After selecting yes, the overbearing president swipes and disappears.
At the same time, multiple pop-up windows popped up.
[The mission has been completed. 】
[The chat group begins to upgrade. 】
[Upgrade completed. 】
[The chat group has resumed normal operation, the private chat function has been turned on, the transcoding permissions have been upgraded, the information notification function has been turned on, the random addition function has been started, and the analysis of captured female channel characters has begun. 】
[Abnormal data is parsed, which meets the emergency start conditions of the wake-up program. 】
【Start to wake up. 】
[Qin Su will wake up in forty-five days. 】
After these pop-up windows popped up, the chat group that had been flashing red suddenly returned to normal.
Conversations among group friends also quickly appeared in the window.
Hua Honglian: "Huh? It's back to normal."
Luo Qingdie: "Let me try, can you see me?"
Zhu Shanlin: “I saw it, I saw it, oh, it’s normal.”
Xu Liniang: "I was so scared before. I thought I would never be able to chat with you again."
Liu Ruyue: "Cry loudly!"
Then when they saw that Chu Lu was silent, they started asking questions again and again, forcing Chu Lu to speak.
Then they began to discuss what was going on? Chu Lu watched their heated discussion, thought for a while and decided not to tell them for the time being.
He looked at the name 'Qin Su' in the pop-up window and was very surprised. He didn't expect to see this name here.
He had seen this name before. It's just that it's not in the world before time travel, nor in the world after time travel, but in the chat group, in the member column of the chat group.
When Chu Lu just joined the chat group and Luo Qingdie hadn't joined yet, there were seven people in the group including him.
However, there are only five of them, Hua Honglian, Zhu Shanlin, Xu Liniang, Liu Ruyue and Chu Lu. The reason is that the remaining two have been diving and have never come forward.
Qin Su is one of those two people.
Now it seems that she is not diving, but sleeping.
There must be many secrets behind this.
Chu Lu couldn't help but scratch his head a little, as if it had been broken out of context, but the pop-up window made it clear that he would have to wait for another forty-five days, so he could only bear it down.
"The urgent mission has been completed, and the chat group has returned to normal. Qin Su's affairs are not urgent, so let's complete the sect mission first." Chu Lu said.
So he got up and left the county.
########
A few days later, he completed his mission and returned to the mountain gate.
On the way back, he also solved the problem of cultivation.
He asked Luo Qingdie for the skills. Due to the upgrade of the chat group and the increased permissions of the transcoding function, not only the foundation building period, but also the skills of Jindan and Nascent Soul can be transferred.
Chu Lu took a set of Jindan Kungfu and learned a few of them on the way. Then he used mission rewards to advance to the early stage of Jindan. After practicing a few more times, he successfully concealed his skill level.
After returning to the sect, he deliberately walked around in front of several masters and found that there were no flaws, so he settled down and continued to be his spiritual pattern master's apprentice.
During this period, he also asked about Yi Xiaowan's follow-up situation, and after learning that everything was fine, he stopped asking.
Just like that, before you knew it, the one-month cooling time was up.
During lunch break, Chu Lu opened the chat group and said: "The cooling time of the Boundary Breaking Talisman is up."
Everyone: "Oh."
Chu Lu: "..."
"So does anyone need my help?" he asked.
Hua Honglian: "No."
Zhu Shanlin: "Chu Lu, although we are all in the same chat group, it doesn't mean that we are all equally miserable, okay?"
Liu Ruyue: "Suppress all enemies in the world!"
Chu Lu: "..."
——Obviously when Luo Qingdie told his miserable story, all of you felt the same way.
But since they don't want to help, Chu Lu can't force them.
"Okay, I'll get off then."
Hua Honglian: "Hey, wait."
Chu Lu: "?"
Hua Honglian: “No, let’s forget it.”
Chu Lu: "??"
Chu Lu: "If you have something to say, just say it! Don't forget it. Just be careful and you will lose your life."
Hua Honglian: "No, no, no, it's really okay."
Chu Lu: "..."
Chu Lu didn't say anything more, too lazy to argue with her. Anyway, if the situation is really bad, she will always speak up.
He closed the chat group, closed his eyes and started practicing.
After practicing until the next morning, Chu Lu slowly opened his eyes and checked the progress of his cultivation. It was very average.
If this situation continues, we won't be able to reach the middle stage of the Golden Elixir within fifty years.
This is too slow, but if you want to level up as quickly as possible, you must either have some adventures or rely on the chat group to post tasks. But there is no mission now...
"Wait." Chu Lu, who was distressed, suddenly remembered that he still had a new function that he had not tried yet.
"The function of randomly adding people!" Chu Lu said: "It looks like a function that can draw people into a group. With more people, there will definitely be more tasks."
So Chu Lu quickly opened the chat group and found the function interface. After opening it, three selection boxes appeared in front of him, and there was a refresh button in the lower right corner.
However, there is only one person in the selection box in front of me, and the refresh button is still gray with an exclamation mark next to it.
Chu Lu clicked on the exclamation mark, and a pop-up window immediately popped up.
[The function is not fully enabled. 】
Chu Lu: "..."
"What the hell?" He couldn't help complaining: "Did Bing Xixi buy this chat group? Why are all the functions incomplete?"
But complaints were complaints, Chu Lu still looked at the only person.
It was a woman, her name was Lin Xiao, she had a rather charming appearance, and she seemed to be a modern person based on her clothing. There are also a few words under her character box - tasks can be released.
Other than that, there is no information at all.
Chu Lu decided to give it a try. Anyway, there would be no consequences if he gave it a try. There was no difference if there were more than one person in the group or if there were few.
He clicked on the woman and a pop-up window popped up asking if he wanted to add her to the chat group.
Chu Lu nodded yes.
The next moment, an additional message appeared in the chat group.
[Chat group prompt: Lin Xiao joins the chat group. 】
When new people joined, the group members immediately became excited and greeted and chatted one after another.
Lin Xiao was a little confused at first, but gradually adapted.
The whole process was similar to when Yi Xiaowan first arrived.
After Lin Xiao had almost become familiar with each other, Chu Lu finally spoke: "The people who come here basically want to seek help. Are you in trouble too?"
Lin Xiao: "That's it, that's true. I'm really in trouble."
"Then do you need my help?"
"Um."
"Okay, tell me about the situation." Chu Lu said: "What's the world like over there? What trouble have you encountered? What do you want me to do?"
"The world on my side..." In the previous exchange, she already knew the identities of each group member, so it was not surprising to hear this question. She explained: "It is closer to Xu Liniang's world, but the technology on my side More developed…”
She briefly described the situation in her world.
Chu Lu nodded slightly. His previous judgment was correct. This was indeed a modern person, and he was probably the protagonist of urban literature.
After explaining the background of the world view, Lin Xiao then entered the topic: "As for the trouble I encountered, I can't explain it in a few words. I have to start from the beginning. It may be a bit long."
Chu Lu: "It doesn't matter. The troubles people here encounter are the type that they can't explain in a few words and have to start from the beginning. I'm used to it."
Luo Qingdie and Xu Liniang: "..."
Lin Xiao: "That's good. Let's start with my birth. I was originally the daughter of the wealthy Lin family, but when I was a child, I was miscarried and ended up living in the mountains..."
