Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World by Ming Yu
chapter-2178

Zhao Hai didn’t go out on a mission the next day. He was either cultivating in his courtyard or in the gang’s scripture pavilion to study the records of the gang.

The Ghost Child Gang has collected some good things. Naturally, the good things Zhao Hai referred to were the jade slips about the underground world, not the Ghost Cultivator techniques.

Zhao Hai has collected a lot of Ghost Cultivators. Moreover, those Ghost Cultivators were from powerful sects. The methods they have were more powerful than the ones in the Ghost Child Gang.

For one week, Zhao Hai’s life in the Ghost Child Gang involved practicing in his courtyard and going to the scripture pavilion. Most of the time, he was reading about medicinal plants and ores.

A week later, Zhao Hai decided to head out. He was prepared to take the missions issued by the gang. The missions provided by the gang were ones that weren’t given to outside cultivators. Naturally, these missions were harder than the ones in the mission hall. But in turn, the rewards were more generous.

The gang’s internal mission hall was smaller than the mission hall outside. There were also fewer people taking up missions. Now that Zhao Hai has joined the Ghost Child Gang for a week and had gained a deeper understanding of the underground world, it was time for him to take on missions. If he continued to delay, people might become suspicious.

There were only a few people in the mission hall when Zhao Hai entered. Zhao Hai knew these people, but they didn’t know Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai knew about them through the Space, naturally these people didn’t know who he was. But Zhao Hai didn’t mind it. As he looked at the mission board, a mission attracted his vision. It was a group mission. Ten people from the gang would escort a shipment of weapons from the gang to Ghost Wind City.

Ghost Wind City was under the control of the Ghost Wind Gang. The Ghost Wind Gang has a good relationship with the Ghost Child Gang. The Ghost Child Gang was quite famous for refining weapons. Its weapons were famous in the surrounding cities.

The Ghost Child Gang earned a huge income from their refined weapons. Thus, their weapon shipments were extremely valuable. This made escort missions more common in the mission hall.

There were two reasons why Zhao Hai was attracted by the mission. The first was that he could leave Ghost Child City. It’s been a month since he arrived in the city. The second reason was to make him more familiar with the people in the gang.

Zhao Hai saw that eight people have already accepted the mission. Seeing that there were only two slots left, Zhao Hai hurriedly walked to the counter and said, “I want to take escort mission number 33.” After speaking, Zhao Hai handed his identity token to the staff member.

The staff member received Zhao Hai’s identity token and discovered that Zhao Hai hasn’t taken other missions. The staff looked at Zhao Hai and asked, “Junior Brother, are you new to the gang?”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I’ve made Senior Brother laugh.”

The staff smiled and said, “No, no. I just saw that your eyes are quite good. Your first mission will be an escort mission. This mission is practically safe. Moreover, you can get to know a lot of people. This is a good choice.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Senior Brother is overpraising me.”

The staff member smiled and said, “There’s no need to be polite. Alright, you can take this mission. Report to the meeting point three days later. Don’t be late.” Then he handed back Zhao Hai’s identity token.

After receiving his identity token, Zhao Hai looked at the staff member and asked, “Senior Brother, what do I need to prepare for the mission?”

The staff replied, “There’s no need to prepare anything. Everything will be taken care of by the gang. Moreover, the gang will prepare your resting spots.”

Zhao Hai cupped his fist and said, “Thank you, Senior Brother.” Then he turned around and left. The staff looked at Zhao Hai’s back and said, “Interesting fellow.”

Zhao Hai returned to his room and immediately got in touch with Laura and told her about the mission. Laura and the others didn’t have any opinions. They supported no matter what Zhao Hai did. They would cooperate with him at all times. Having Zhao Hai figure out the situation in the underground world would be helpful when he would deal with the Ghost Cultivators in the future.

As Zhao Hai received his mission, a person entered Zhong Busan’s room. This person wasn’t tall, and his appearance was ordinary. Zhong Busan looked at this person and said, “Little Feng, I’ll hand this over to you. I obtained information that the Green Zombie Gang is going to do something. There would be approximately 50 people. Their leader will be Lu Qing. Be careful.”

Little Feng nodded and said, “You don’t have to worry. I haven’t fought with Lu Qing once or twice. He has no way to deal with me. Moreover, his protectors aren’t with him this time. And with the Eight Talents, I don’t have to worry about them.”

Zhong Busan smiled faintly and said, “Good. With the Eight Talents in your hand, you should be able to deal with the 50 people. As long as you can hold them down, we will come as soon as we can. We need to make the Green Zombie Gang bleed.”

At this time, an anxious voice was heard outside, “Gang Leader, I have something to report.”

Zhong Busan knit his brows and said, “What happened?”

The person replied, “I have information about Zhao Hai.”

Zhong Busan stared, then he said, “Come in.” The person complied and pushed the door open before walking in. He quickly gave a salute to Zhong Busan and then nodded at Little Feng.

Zhong Busan looked at the person and said, “Tell me what’s happening with Zhao Hai.”

The person replied, “Yes. Zhao Hai went to the Mission Hall just now. He’s taking the escort mission three days later. Gang Master ordered to report to you whenever Zhao Hai takes a mission. So, I’m here to deliver the information.”

Zhong Busan raised his brows and said, “He’s taking the escort missions? Do you think this is a coincidence? Or did he deliberately wait for this mission to come out?”

The person hesitated for a moment and said, “This one is unable to make sure. But according to what I saw, it’s just a coincidence.”

Zhong Busan said, “What made you think so?”

The person replied, “Zhao Hai hasn’t been out of the gang these days. He hasn’t been in contact with anyone either. He spent most of his time in the scripture pavilion. And he only pays attention to jade slips related to medicinal plants and ores. He only went to the Mission Hall one time before this, but he only went there to familiarize himself with the gang. Ever since he joined, it’s been a week. Therefore, it’s possible that he only came upon the mission.”

Zhong Busan replied, “Why do you think he only took the mission a week after joining the gang?”

The person answered, “Because he did that before. When Zhao Hai arrived in Ghost Child City, he first rented a house and then stayed there for five days. Besides eating, he stayed inside his room. It’s only five days later that he came out to take missions. I think this is Zhao Hai’s habit. After arriving in a new area, he would adapt himself first. Only when he understands the place would he take missions.”

Zhong Busan nodded, “That’s true. But all of these are guesses. Whether it is accurate or not will be revealed soon. If what you said is true, then I will reward you. I won’t punish you if you’re wrong. You can go.” The person nodded and then walked away.

After the person left the room, Zhong Busan said, “Little Feng, I’ll have to depend on you this time. We don’t know the origin of this Zhao Hai. Pay attention to him along the way. Don’t make him cause any trouble. If he’s really arranged by the other forces, you can go ahead and kill him.”

Little Feng nodded. Then Zhong Busan waved his hand. Little Feng gave Zhong Busan a salute before turning around and leaving. As he looked at Little Feng’s back, Zhong Busan muttered, “Don’t disappoint me kid.” Nobody knew if he meant that for Little Feng or Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai was unaware of this interaction. Although he didn’t prepare anything for the mission, understood its details.

Although Zhao Hai hasn’t been going around lately, he went to the gang cafeteria frequently. Moreover, Zhao Hai discovered that Yue Lin was a warm-hearted person. As long as it was within his means, he would offer his help.

However, Yue Lin only treated Zhao Hai well because Zhao Hai showed respect. He was unlike others who only gave him face because of his younger brother. Yue Lin could clearly see this in a person’s eyes.

The night after receiving the mission, Zhao Hai went to the cafeteria. There were very few people in the cafeteria at this time, making Yue Ling idle. To be honest, Yue Lin’s job was quite easy. Yue Lin only needed to be in the cafeteria until ten in the night and then he could go home. The rest of the time wasn’t his responsibility. It was because of this free time that Zhao Hai was able to converse with Yue Ling. Zhao Hai also ate more punctually compared to other cultivators. Cultivators spend most of their time cultivating and would only have the cafeteria deliver food to them. On the other hand, Zhao Hai went to the cafeteria in person.

Upon seeing Zhao Hai, Yue Lin smiled and said, “Junior Brother, you’re here. I was thinking that you wouldn’t come today.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Of course I have to come to eat my meal. I have no other place to eat at. Senior Brother, where’s the food? I’m hungry.”

Yue Lin laughed and said, “Don’t worry, it’ll be here as soon as possible. Come, sit. Tell me what you want to eat.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Whatever is good. Two dishes and a pot of liquor. Right, Senior Brother Yue, while I eat, I have something to ask you.”

Yue Lin smiled and said, “Alright. I’ll let them serve the food after preparing the meal.” After he said that, he turned around and left. Before long, Yue Ling returned and sat down opposite Zhao Hai. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Tell me, what’s the matter?”

Zhao Hai replied, “It’s about the mission I accepted. I don’t know what to prepare. This is the first mission I’ve taken since joining the Ghost Child Gang. I have to do well.”

Yue Lin laughed and said, “You’re afraid of affecting your title of Mission King? I heard that you were invited to the gang because you have done a lot of missions beautifully.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I can’t accept the name of Mission King. But I have done a lot of missions. The mission I took this time is an escort mission. There would be a total of ten people escorting a caravan of artifacts to Ghost Wind City. Brother Yue, how should I prepare for this mission?”

Hearing Zhao Hai, Yue Ling couldn’t help but stare, then he nodded and said, “Your first mission is actually this. It seems like your eyesight is very good. No wonder you’re called the Mission King. Hahaha. Actually, escort missions are one of the easiest missions in the gang. Since the escorted artifacts aren’t very valuable, nobody would care about them. With ten people escorting the caravan, you can also get to know them along the way. This is a good thing. You really don’t need to prepare anything for this mission. The place you’re going wouldn’t be far and there are supply points along the way. The route you’re going to is also familiar to the gang. All you need to do is to follow.”

Hearing this, Zhao Hai felt relieved, “Since it’s not far, why would the gang send people to escort it? Is there anyone in the vicinity who would dare attack the gang’s caravan?”

Yue Lin shook his head and said, “There aren’t a lot of people who would dare attack the gang. But if we don’t send escorts, then the rogue cultivators might get greedy and form thoughts. Therefore, having escorts is needed, even if only for show.”

Zhao Hai nodded, “So it’s this. In other words, there’s no danger? I was hoping that there would be fun along the way.”

Hearing Zhao Hai, Yue Ling laughed, “I only heard people worrying about dangers on the road. I haven’t heard people wishing to be in danger. Don’t worry, there will be no accidents.”

Zhao Hai smiled, “I was just joking. Nobody hopes to be attacked. If the road is really safe, then I’ll be relaxed. This might be the most relaxing mission I’ll take.”

Yue Lin smiled and said, “I don’t know about relaxing. But to you, this is a good opportunity to get to know others in the gang.”

Zhao Hai nodded. Although he has no good impressions of the gang, he had a good image of Yue Lin. In a bad crowd, you would always find a good person. But at the same time, you would also find bad people in good crowds. Yue Lin was a good person among the bad crowd.
