Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 30 A strange mission! (Please read the monthly ticket and recommend it!)

Although the Yuding Tower in Beiliang County is only a branch and is not large in scale, comparable to those branches in the provincial capital or state capital, it still has more than ten herbalists, and most of them are martial artists. Together, they can be said to be a considerable force.

Gu Yuan is just a newcomer who just joined the company. If there is really a good thing, how could it be his turn?
"You'll understand this later."

Zhou Zhong smiled mysteriously, but kept the other person in suspense. He didn't say much and after a few more words, he turned and left.

Gu Yuan didn't think any more and went straight to the second floor where Yang Han was.

Boom boom boom!
"Sir, this subordinate, Gu Yuan, requests to see you."

Arriving at the door of a room, Gu Yuan knocked on the door, and soon Yang Han's voice came from inside:

"Come in."

When Gu Yuan pushed the door open, he saw Yang Han sitting in a seat, holding a brush and writing something without even looking at him.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan closed the door and stood by respectfully without making a sound to disturb them.

After a full cup of tea, Yang Han finally put down the pen in his hand and looked at Gu Yuan. Seeing that he didn't say anything, a hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

Obviously, this young boy in front of him is not a fool who knows nothing.

"Ok?"

But the next moment, his eyes moved, and he discovered something. He was quite surprised and asked, "Have you already achieved the Great Mastery of Skin Refining and become a Martial Master?"

It has only been more than twenty days since Gu Yuan acquired martial arts.

It only took more than twenty days to complete the skin refining. This speed is really not slow.

Moreover, he remembered that the martial arts that Gu Yuan chose at that time was the "Spirit Snake Sword Technique" rather than the internal training martial arts.

It seems that this kid in front of me has some secrets.

"Your Excellency has a keen eye. I recently became a disciple of an old man. I have made great progress thanks to his guidance."

Gu Yuan lied without blushing or beating his heart.

"Well, that's fine. Since you've become a martial artist, there's a mission tomorrow, so I'll add you to the list."

Yang Han nodded in understanding, and the surprise in his heart quickly disappeared.

Refining the skin is just the first step for a martial artist. It doesn't matter if the speed is a little faster. With his knowledge, he naturally knows that there are many ways to do this.

For example, practicing some evil magic or taking some panacea.

Besides, Gu Yuan had been buying medicinal pigeons and other nourishing herbs recently, so he knew a little about them. With a master's guidance, it was not surprising that he could become a martial artist so quickly.

Boom boom boom!
Yang Han knocked on the table and said, "Tomorrow at noon, our Yuding Pavilion will have a batch of medicinal herbs shipped to Qingliu Town. Some of our senior herbalists have been assigned to other tasks, so we can't spare any extra manpower for the time being. When the time comes, you will go with them as an entourage."

As he spoke, he handed a contract to Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan took it and found that it contained simple information about the mission.

The general meaning was that the goods being transported on this mission were of considerable value, and he was required to follow as a guard, providing his own weapons, while the caravan would provide food and lodging.

This round trip transportation mission will probably take no more than ten days. When the mission is completed, you will receive twenty contribution points and five taels of silver.

When you think about it, these rewards are indeed quite generous. If it were any other time, it would not have been Gu Yuan's turn at all.

Moreover, Gu Yuan noticed that there were several people's signatures under this contract, including Zhou Zhong's. No wonder this guy was so mysterious just now, it turned out that he had known it for a long time.

Gu Yuan wrote his name on it neatly and pressed his fingerprint. Seeing Yang Han pick up the teacup and drink tea, he tactfully said goodbye.

But after Gu Yuan left the door, his brows furrowed.

"There's something wrong with this mission!"

For some reason, he felt that this mission was a little strange.

There were a dozen or so herb collectors in the entire Yuding Tower. How could it be such a coincidence that most of them were assigned out this time? Furthermore, wasn't the reward a bit too generous for such a simple delivery mission?

"Wait, with my current status, even if I noticed something unusual, what could I do? Could I still refuse?"

As he thought about it, Gu Yuan suddenly laughed at himself and shook his head secretly.

"Since Yang Han personally assigned me, he must know something about the situation and might even have some plans. I absolutely cannot refuse. Even if I tell him, it might get me into trouble!"

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan felt a little helpless.

This is the disadvantage of joining a certain force. You must follow the rules. The superior gives orders, and the inferior has to obey. Otherwise, there are plenty of ways to deal with you.

The only thing he could do now was to be as careful as possible.

The next day, in the morning.

Gu Yuan arrived at Yuding Tower early, holding a long sword and carrying a package.

At this time, a caravan had gathered on the street in front of Yuding Tower.

This caravan had a leader, as well as grooms, guards, cooks, etc., about twenty people, a total of six carriages and three horses.

Five of the carriages were already loaded with medicinal herbs, but only one was empty, but it was guarded by two young maids.

As for the herbalists who were accompanying him, in addition to Zhou Zhong, Gu Yuan also saw a thin old man who was holding a pure iron pipe that was more than three feet long. The pipe bowl was about the size of a baby's fist. It seemed that it could easily smash a person's skull, and looked very intimidating.

Gu Yuan felt a hint of danger from the old man.

Not long after, three more people walked out of the Yuding Tower.

To Gu Yuan's surprise, the leader was actually Deacon Yang Han, and the other two people behind him were a young man and a woman.

The woman had a beautiful face, with willow-shaped eyebrows, cherry lips, and fair and delicate skin. She was obviously a rare beauty.

There was an exquisite scimitar hanging on her slender waist.

As for the other young man, judging from his appearance, he is somewhat similar to Yang Han, and is obviously Yang Han's nephew.

However, Gu Yuan noticed that the young man looked at the girl with a hidden gaze from time to time, as if with a bit of obsession.

"Everyone is here?"

Yang Han glanced at them and said, "Very good. I'll give you a brief introduction so that you can cooperate with each other after you are familiar with each other."

He first pointed at the young girl and said, "This girl's surname is Xia, her full name is Xia Xiuxue, and she is also the daughter of our Jade Tripod Pavilion Master."

"This time, just like you, I am also an accompanying herbalist."

Then he pointed to the young man next to him and said, "This is Yang Jianfei, also a herbalist."

The girl, Xia Xiuxue, stepped forward and bowed slightly to Gu Yuan and the others: "Greetings."

Gu Yuan and his companions quickly returned the greetings and announced their names.

It would be fine if it was Yang Han, as the cargo was of considerable value, so it was understandable that he personally escorted it for safety reasons.

But the Pavilion Master's daughter actually came to do the mission, which was rather strange. Gu Yuan became more and more certain of his guess that there was indeed something fishy about this mission!
Yuding Tower has many branches. Except for the owner of the headquarters who is called "Lobby Master", the owners of all other branches are called "Pavilion Masters".

The Pavilion Master of Beiliang County was said to be a congenital martial artist. He was quite mysterious and had been practicing in seclusion. He rarely showed up, at least Gu Yuan had never seen him.

As the daughter of the Pavilion Master, her status is so noble that it is simply incomparable to ordinary herbalists like Gu Yuan, and there is no need for her to do such a task.

So when they heard that this woman was also going to come along, any discerning person could notice something was wrong.

At least, Gu Yuan noticed that the old man who smoked a cigarette knocked off the ash and was clearly a little wary.

Only Zhou Zhong seemed to be unaware.
