Lufeng struck a signature pose reminiscent of Conan and said firmly, "The relationship between NPCs is the breakthrough point for missions!"
Ignoring the surprised crowd, Lufeng began to explain to Chai Jin about Dunhuang's Yang Wenguang and a series of tasks: "Chai the Official, please calm down. I am sent by Yang Wenguang..."
After hearing Lufeng's explanation, Chai Jin shook his head, his eyes regaining some clarity as he weakly replied, "Oh, it's you. Sorry, I've been so haunted lately that I don't know if what I see is human or ghost..."
After a moment of contemplation, Chai Jin continued, "I'm really confused right now, Lufeng. I know you're a great hero; your deeds have spread throughout Wuliang Mountain, Sword Pavilion, and Dunhuang. General Yang Wenguang has mentioned your name to me. If you hadn't brought up that trivial matter about Dunhuang, I wouldn't have recognized you."
Lufeng felt an urge to hit the wall but was somewhat pleased that at least Chai Jin was back to normal. Seeing that he hadn't fully recovered yet, Lufeng didn't want to rush him.
After a long pause, Chai Jin rubbed his head and slowly said, "I'm really panicking right now. I can't sit still; I can't sleep; I'm on the verge of breaking down. I can't talk to anyone, and it's even hard for me to stay with anyone for more than a moment. Please go find Mr. Xiao Rang. He will be responsible for receiving you."
Lufeng couldn't help but feel delighted; the mission had arrived. He nodded and accepted this task—[Reception].
Mission Objective: Find Xiao Rang.
After receiving the mission, Lufeng paid no further attention to the confused NPC and had Wang Xiaojing and others receive the same task using the same method before quickly heading to where Xiao Rang was located.
Xiao Rang was in the southeast direction of Songyang Academy. After walking past a row of stone steps, Lufeng soon found Xiao Rang and explained some of the situation regarding Chai Jin, then instructed Wang Xiaojing and others to utilize their connections between NPCs to take on tasks separately.
Upon learning about Chai Jin's situation, Xiao Rang sighed helplessly: "Sigh, Chai the Official has been having nightmares lately. It's no wonder; there have been many strange occurrences at Songyang Academy. When Master Chai died from blood loss years ago, Chai the Official was still young and very scared. That left him with a lasting trauma—he can't stand the sight of blood."
"Sogasnai!” Lufeng nodded thoughtfully, feeling a headache from this absurd situation. After completing the task, he gained over two thousand in Experience.
"Recently, things at Songyang Academy have not been peaceful; people are anxious. Please proceed with caution," warned Xiao Rang.
"Thank you for the reminder!"
In this game of life and life as a game, receiving missions is the key to leveling up. Lufeng did not dwell on the cause of Chai Jin's condition and asked, "Is there anything I can help with? Please assign me any tasks; I will do my utmost to complete them."
Hearing this from Lufeng, Xiao Rang couldn't help but feel overjoyed and said happily, "Lufeng, Young Hero, it’s wonderful that you can help! The Jishan Slope was originally part of the Chai Family's estate but has now been ravaged by the Evil Ape. Please go help me kill five Evil Apes and also get some calming medicine for Chai the Official from Lu Song.
Lufeng was filled with mixed emotions; he had initially received no tasks, but now he suddenly had two to complete. This was truly a leap from quantity to quality. After looking at the task objectives, he naturally decided to tackle the closer task first.
Thus, Lufeng found Lu Song and explained the situation. Lu Song graciously prepared Calming Medicine for Lufeng.
After receiving the Calming Medicine, Lufeng expressed his gratitude and said, "Thank you, Old Doctor. My name is Lufeng. It seems we are connected from five hundred years ago. I have always admired your profound medical skills. I have heard that Brother Lu's medical expertise is like that of Hua Tuo reincarnated; hearing about it is not as good as seeing it in person, and meeting you today truly confirms your reputation... Oh, I apologize for calling you Brother Lu so casually out of excitement."
Lu Song was taken aback for a moment before bursting into laughter: "Haha, no problem! From now on, you can call me Brother Lu!"
" ding!"
System Notification: Congratulations! Your relationship with Lu Song has increased by 100.
A series of System sounds echoed in Lufeng's ears. After a while, he finally came back to his senses and couldn't help but reflect: Flattery never fails; it is indeed an unchanging truth throughout history. It seems every successful person has played the fool at some point. As long as one can receive tasks, what harm is there in playing the fool?
With the increase in relationship points, Lu Song became more amiable and began to discuss matters regarding Chai Jin.
After some conversation, Lu Song sighed: "Alas, Chai the Official truly suffers from a rich man's disease. The Chai Family is wealthy and powerful, not to mention that since Old Man Chai's time, they have held an imperial decree granted by the emperor that pardons all crimes. What could Chai the Official possibly fear?"
Lufeng shook his head in silence, feeling that sometimes fate is still fair.
"Look at me, Lu Song. I lost my parents at eight and was so poor that I had no choice but to work like a dog for the Chai Family, raising myself and my sister. I've never been intimidated by anything; it's just worrying over nothing. Yet my sister, Lu Ningxiang, has taken a liking to Chai the Official. Oh well, never mind. Brother Lufeng, you should hurry and deliver the Calming Medicine!” said Lu Song, somewhat helplessly.
Checking the task prompt, Lufeng noticed he could take on another task and, unwilling to give up, continued to flatter: "Brother Lu, you are truly kind-hearted! It is a blessing for me to be considered your peer. To express my gratitude for your high regard for me, please feel free to assign me any tasks; even if it costs me my life, I will certainly fulfill your mission."
Lu Song, flattered by the praise, felt his vanity satisfied and exclaimed: "Good! I knew I didn't misjudge you; you are indeed a fine man of the Lu family! Just right—I have another matter that requires your assistance."
"Please go ahead!" Lufeng gestured respectfully.
Lu Song nodded: "Not long ago, a doctor named Su Fei came to Songyang Academy looking for medical texts. As a fellow practitioner, I admire his dedication to medicine. I have a copy of the 'Medical Canon' written by a doctor from the Western Regions named Avicenna. Mr. Su Shi translated it into Chinese not long ago. I would like you to help me pass it on to Su Fei, as a contribution to our field!"
Delighted with this new task, Lufeng accepted it happily and then bid farewell to Lu Song, proceeding to deliver the Calming Medicine to Chai Jin.
Chai Jin half-heartedly took the Calming Medicine, and soon his anxious emotions calmed down, and his mind returned to normal. To thank Lufeng, Chai Jin readily assigned him four tasks: to help him kill five White-Striped Tigers, five Abandoned Wooden Men, and five Ying Shui Wolves at Jishan Slope, as well as to reject an appointment with Lu Ningxiang.
Eager to gain Experience, Lufeng happily took on the role of a 'runner' and found Lu Ningxiang again.
With the connection of Lu Song, Lu Ningxiang had no reservations and treated Lufeng like a brother, explaining the situation to him...
After listening to Lu Ningxiang's account, Lufeng finally understood that everything stemmed from a mysterious ghost fire, and he accepted Lu Ningxiang's request—to kill the Gatepost.
After completing all the tasks from Songyang Academy, Lufeng first arrived at the agreed meeting point at the entrance of Songyang Academy. After waiting for a long time without seeing his teammates, he boredly started reading the Medical Canon...
After a while, just as Lufeng was about to fall asleep, he finally saw the arrival of Wang Xiaojing and others.
"Boss, why are you here so early?" Seeing that Lufeng had come out first, Qin Shou said somewhat frustrated.
Lufeng smiled lightly and asked in return, "Did you guys take too long at the Lu Song siblings' place?"
After seeing Qin Shou nod, Lufeng couldn't help but feel a bit pleased with himself and then explained to Qin Shou the reason for receiving the tasks quickly.
