Chapter 480: The Encyclopedia of Rivers and Lakes and the Invention of the Science Fiction School
Late at night, in the boudoir of the Silver Book Inn.
Yin Shushu stood at a desk, straddling a chair with long white legs, holding a brush in his small hand, and writing a letter.
Her writing is not pretty, but the font is unique.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Yin Shushu wrote the letter, folded the letterhead, sealed it in a white envelope, and then handed it to Liu Xing: "Xiao Er, you can help me deliver this letter to the paparazzi of Bagua Peak now." ”
"Bagua Peak Paparazzi Pavilion?"
Liu Xing is no stranger to this location.
The Bagua Peak Paparazzi is the most important department of the entertainment fiction school, mainly responsible for collecting intelligence and news in the Shulin Jianghu.
The entertainment novel school is a novel school that emerged in the rivers and lakes more than 20 years ago, and the disciples in the school are mainly entertaining novels.
The so-called entertainment novels refer to novels that describe the personal lives of celebrities such as the heads of various sects, grandmasters, elders, and masters of the rivers and lakes, including gossip news and even privacy scandals of these celebrities.
For example, why did Xiao Wu, the head of the martial arts novel school, choose to be single? Is the amorous master of the romance novel school a virgin? Qing'er, the chief female disciple of the mystery novel school, suddenly became pregnant and pregnant, who did it? What is the inside story of the divorce between the head of the science fiction school and his wife? Is there a Xiao-San involved?
As long as it is news or gossip news of celebrities in the rivers and lakes, the entertainment fiction school will do their best to collect it, and formulate a newspaper called "Shulin Entertainment Weekly" to publish the anecdotes in the rivers and lakes. The newspaper was distributed throughout the entire Shulin River and was sold in major bookstores and bookstores.
Because "Shulin Entertainment Weekly" has published a lot of unknown secrets in the rivers and lakes, it is deeply loved by the majority of readers. Its sales are also quite hot.
Although this newspaper exposed the privacy of many celebrities, it offended some schools of fiction. However, "Shulin Entertainment Weekly" received strong support from the imperial court, and the name of this newspaper was personally inscribed by Ji Xiaofeng, the prime minister of the dynasty. With the support of the prime minister, the major novel schools did not dare to act rashly against "Shulin Entertainment Weekly".
In recent years, Shulin Entertainment Weekly has become an important source of information for all major factions in the rivers and lakes, and the accuracy of much of the information in the newspaper is very high, all thanks to the excellent ability of entertainment fiction schools to collect intelligence.
The most important department of the entertainment novel school is the "paparazzi", and there are a group of disciples in the paparazzi who are good at digging into other people's privacy and secretly collecting all kinds of hidden information. Because these disciples are as sensitive as dogs, the Jianghu people call them "paparazzi".
The paparazzi team has been expanding in recent years, with more than 10,000 people, collecting celebrity anecdotes from all corners of the rivers and lakes.
And the headquarters of the paparazzi is the paparazzi. Bagua Peak is located in Bagua Town.
"Xiao Er, you send this letter to the Bagua Peak Paparazzi. Yin Shushu advised, "After arriving, give the letter to the pavilion owner of the paparazzi, Bai Xiaoshu." ”
"Bai Xiaoshu?" Liu Xing is also no stranger to this name, Bai Xiaoshu is one of the three elders of the entertainment novel school, and now serves as the owner of the paparazzi, and also serves as the editor-in-chief of "Shulin Entertainment Weekly".
Bai Xiaoshu is good at gathering intelligence, and he knows almost everything about the events that occur in the rivers and lakes. Known as the "encyclopedia of the forest of books", many readers want to win over Baixiaoshu, many of whom are famous and decent.
It's just that Bai Xiaoshu is not only the future heir of the entertainment novel school, but also deeply influenced by the common sense of Ji Xiaofeng, the prime minister of the current dynasty. A person of his stature is not something that ordinary people can afford.
It is said that in order to enhance the status of the Tan-American novel school in the rivers and lakes, the head of the Tan-American novel school once wanted to tie up Baixiaoshu.
It's a pity that Bai Xiaoshu doesn't appreciate it at all. He was an upright man and never accepted any form of bribe. Many of the heads of the novel school have eaten behind closed doors in Baixiaoshu's paparazzi.
Bai Xiaoshu's cold character is well-known in the rivers and lakes. It's hard to buy him.
"Boss, you said that this letter was going to be sent to Bai Xiaoshu?" Liu Xing confirmed.
Yin Shushu nodded: "I must hand it over to Bai Xiaoshu in person, and no one else can." ”
Liu Xing frowned: "Boss lady, do you know Bai Xiaoshu?"
Yin Shushu said: "It's not just that I know, the debt he owes to his mother has not been paid off yet." ”
"Debts?" Liu Xing was skeptical, "No, right? Bai Xiaoshu's "Shulin Entertainment Weekly" is selling so well, he must not be short of money!"
Yin Shushu put one hand on Liu Xing's shoulder and said, "Little Er, there are many kinds of debts in this world, and money and debts are only one of them. Bai Xiaoshu owes me not money debts, but fart-stock debts. ”
"Fart-stocks?" Liu Xing wondered, "What is this?"
Yin Shushu recalled: "When I was young, I didn't have nowhere to take a bath, so I ran to the river in Feilong Town to wash? One night, I was naked in the river bathing, swimming around, as a result, Bai Xiaoshu happened to pass by the river, ready to drink river water to quench his thirst, and then accidentally saw the old lady's PP ......."
"......" Liu Xing.
"My mother was a big girl with yellow flowers at the time, and after Bai Xiaoshu saw me naked, he was very upset. Yin Shushu continued to recall, "In order to make up for my losses, Bai Xiaoshu said that he would be responsible for me. I can ask for anything, and he will help me achieve it, and he will never break his word. ”
"If you look at it this way, Bai Xiaoshu can be regarded as a responsible and good man. Liu Xing wondered, "Boss lady, in that case, why didn't he marry you directly?"
Yin Shushu said: "Bai Xiaoshu is a eunuch. ”
"Eunuch?" Liu Xing suddenly realized, and pointed to the letter in his hand, "After this letter is handed over to Bai Xiaoshu, the matter of "Golden Jade Relationship" can be solved?"
Yin Shushu said: "I asked Bai Xiaoshu to publish a warning message in the "Shulin Entertainment Weekly", saying that some people in the rivers and lakes have been spreading rumors about "Golden Jade Romance" recently, trying to provoke the contradictions of the various factions in the rivers and lakes again. Back then, the battle between good and evil was because someone spread the rumors of "Golden Jade Romance" in Feilong Town, which led to the bloody battles between the various major factions, and countless casualties, only to find out later that it was fake news. Now, if someone dares to spread similar rumors, you know the consequences. ”
She explained it this way. Liu Xing really understood.
If "Shulin Entertainment Weekly" publicly declares, someone has been spreading rumors about "Golden Jade Relationship" recently. The person who is most scared is probably Guo Caifeng of the Dragon and Phoenix Inn, because she really spread similar rumors.
With this statement. can not only completely block Guo Caifeng's mouth, but also scare her half to death.
The influence of "Shulin Entertainment Weekly" in the rivers and lakes is beyond doubt.
"Xiao Er, "Shulin Entertainment Weekly" will publish a new issue the day after tomorrow, you should go to Bagua Peak now. Yin Shushu handed over the Soul Breaking Knife, "You take this knife with you, be careful on the road." ”
Liu Xing said: "Don't worry, boss lady, I will definitely give the letter to Bai Xiaoshu." ”
Yin Shushu specially advised: "Xiao Er, although this Soul Breaking Knife is for your self-defense. But don't use it lightly, especially not in front of decent people such as science fiction. It's not that I'm afraid of them robbing, but I'm afraid that they'll be careful. ”
"Be careful?" Liu Xing was puzzled, "What do you mean?"
Yin Shushu explained: "Didn't the sword king Li Baidao challenge the entire Shulin Jianghu back then? For example, Ke Hanghang, the head of the science fiction school, was fascinated by a science fiction novel at that time, and invented a new type of weapon called the 'revolver-gun', which can shoot something called 'bullet'. The firing range reached 400 meters. At that time, Ke Aerospace vowed that his revolver-gun could defeat Li Baidao's "Soul Breaking Knife Method". ”
As a result, when Ke Aerospace and Li Baidao faced off, Li Baidao sent out a knife light from 1,000 meters away. smashed the revolver-gun, Ke Aerospace was defeated, and even the body armor was torn to pieces by the knife. Eventually escaped naked. After this war, the science fiction school was ridiculed by many people in the rivers and lakes. This has also become a shame for the science fiction school. ”
As a result, the science fiction school has always regarded Li Baidao as an enemy. If only they could see that the Soul Breaker is in your hand. I guess I'm going to get you in trouble. Therefore, this Soul Breaker Knife can be used as much as possible. I have asked Zhao Dabao to accompany you to Bagua Peak, Zhao Dabao has rich experience in the rivers and lakes, and it should not be a problem to have him by his side. ”
Liu Xing nodded, hid the letter and the Soul Breaking Knife in his arms, and said, "Boss, then I'll go first." ”
"Be careful!"
"Understood. ”
After saying goodbye to Yinshushu, Liu Xing went down to the first floor of the Yinshu Inn and left through the back door.
At this time, it was midnight, but there was a person standing in the small courtyard at the back door, it was Zhao Dabao, the dart master of Baolin Bookstore, and there were two black horses beside Zhao Dabao.
"Little Er, you've finally come out. Zhao Dabaohan said with a smile, "Boss Yin asked me to accompany you to Bagua Peak, are you ready?" ”
Liu Xing stepped forward, looked at the two black horses, and asked, "Dabao, let's ride to Bagua Peak?"
Zhao Dabao said: "That's right! These two dark horses are the best horses in our bookstore, they have been walking darts for many years, their foot strength is good, and they have no problem traveling thousands of miles a day." ”
Liu Xing asked: "I heard that the science fiction school seems to have recently invented a new kind of mount called 'motorcycle', which is faster than Maxima, why didn't you buy a motorcycle to try?"
Zhao Dabao said: "Motorcycles are fast, but the price is really expensive! Motorcycles are mounts invented by science fiction schools, sold exclusively, in a completely monopoly position, and the price tag is surprisingly high. A motorcycle sells for 800 taels of silver, and a motorcycle with stronger power costs more than 1,000 taels of silver, who can afford it?"
"1,000 taels of silver is indeed a bit expensive. Liu Xing said, "However, like you who often dart, buying a motorcycle can improve the efficiency of escorting, and it should be quite cost-effective in the long run, right?"
"Xiao Er, you don't know anything!" Zhao Dabao sighed, "The current monopoly industry is really not a thing, you can pit you if you want to, there is no negotiation at all." The price of this motorcycle is expensive, but the gasoline used in the motorcycle is even more expensive! Gasoline is the ration of the motorcycle, and without drinking gasoline, the motorcycle has no strength to run, and gasoline is invented by science fiction, and it is a complete monopoly. If you can afford a motorcycle, you may not be able to afford gasoline, this is a big hole. We made a careful calculation and decided to wait and see for a while. If the price of gasoline hadn't come down, I wouldn't have dared to buy this motorcycle. The science fiction school is one of the eight major schools, and I didn't expect it to be so black, and it will do whatever it takes to make money. ”
Liu Xingdao: "In this case, you should find the media to expose it, such as Bai Xiaoshu's "Shulin Entertainment Weekly". Use public opinion to suppress it. ”
"How can you suppress it? In the rivers and lakes, how many sects can suppress the science fiction school?" Zhao Dabao said. "The science fiction school has grown rapidly in recent years, inventing many strange mounts and weapons. Like motorcycles, automatic rifles, submachine guns, shotguns, rocket artillery, etc., all seem to be quite powerful. Like that automatic rifle-gun, I heard that it can shoot more than 150 rounds of bullets in one minute, which is faster than the martial arts novel's "Finger Magic", and the range is more than 1,300 meters. If this continues, the science fiction school may become the second largest school in the rivers and lakes, second only to the martial arts novel school. With such a big sect, who would dare to provoke them? Bai Xiaoshu is not afraid of heaven and earth, but he may not be idle enough to block the financial path of the science fiction school, right?"
Something comes to mind. Zhao Dabao asked curiously, "By the way, Xiao Er, what did Boss Yin ask you to do in Bagua Peak?"
Liu Xing said: "The proprietress said that it would be confidential. ”
Zhao Dabao understood: "Okay, I won't gossip." Little Er, get on the horse, let's set off immediately. ”
After saying that, the two of them each rode on two black horses and flicked their whips.
"Drive!"
Two black horses galloped out. Hurried in the direction of Bagua Town......
……
As soon as Liu Xing and Zhao Dabao left, Yin Shushu on the second floor of the Silver Book Inn had already washed the green belly pocket she had just taken a bath in, and she walked to the windowsill and hung up the green belly pocket.
The green belly - the pocket is still wet. It was dripping with water, and when a light breeze blew, the belly-pocket fluttered gently on the rope of the windowsill. It's good-looking.
Not long after Yin Shushu's green belly-pocket was hung up, a man nearby immediately saw it.
"Look. Boss Silver's belly-pocket is drying out again! Strange, it's a green belly-pocket that is drying today. Boss Silver didn't seem to have a green belly pocket before, right?"
"Yes, her most common belly-pocket is red, then pink, then blue or purple, and green is really rare. Could it be that Boss Silver has been liking green lately?"
"Maybe, I think the green one is also very good-looking, tomorrow is the day when Boss Silver comes to menstruate, and I am going to give her a green belly-pocket as a gift. ”
……
At the same time.
There is a castle in the easternmost part of Wyvern Town, and the name of the castle is Flying Knife Hall.
The hall master of the Flying Knife Hall is named Li Feiyun, he is the 21st generation disciple of the martial arts novel school, and he has been immersed in many sword novels and learned a flying knife stunt.
Nine years ago, Li Feiyun left the martial arts novel school and founded the Flying Knife Hall in Feilong Town, after several years of operation, there are nearly 500 disciples under the Flying Knife Hall, which is not a small force in Feilong Town.
At this time, in the castle of the Flying Knife Hall, the hall master Li Feiyun was practicing the flying knife.
"Report!"
At this time, a disciple hurriedly ran in and reported, "Hall Master, there is important information!"
Li Feiyun didn't look back, and continued to project the flying knife: "What intelligence?"
The disciple of the Flying Dao Hall said, "Half a quarter of an hour ago, the silver boss of the Silver Book Inn hung a green belly pocket on the windowsill!"
"Green belly-pocket?" Hearing this, Li Feiyun immediately stopped and asked urgently, "Can you see clearly, Boss Yin is really hanging a green belly-pocket, not any other color?"
The disciple of the Flying Knife Hall affirmed: "Hall Master, it's true! Boss Yin's belly is definitely green! Many passers-by have seen it, and everyone also thinks it's strange, why Boss Yin is hanging green today, he used to hang red. ”
Li Feiyun's brows moved slightly, revealing a solemn expression, and asked solemnly: "Is there a green lancet embroidered on the green belly-pocket that Yin Shushu hangs?"
The disciple of the Flying Dao Hall looked shocked and said with admiration: "The hall master is really like a god! can you even deduce what pattern is embroidered on the belly-pocket?"
"Extrapolating a fart, that green belly-pocket was given to Boss Silver by me. Li Feiyun said, "On Yin Shushu's 25th birthday, I gave her a green willow belly-pocket, which was ordered by a lot of money from the Western Regions. Boss Silver doesn't seem to like this color, I've never seen her wear it, I thought Boss Silver threw away this green belly pocket, and I didn't think it was still kept. Speaking of this, Li Feiyun couldn't help but smile.
The disciple of the Flying Knife Hall congratulated: "Hall Master, Boss Yin hung out the green belly-pocket you sent, which shows that she must be interesting to the Hall Master." ”
"You kid don't talk nonsense here!" Li Feiyun suddenly lowered his face again, and asked, "Yin Shushu has any unusual behavior tonight in addition to hanging a green belly-pocket on the windowsill?"
The disciple of the Flying Dao Hall said truthfully: "A quarter of an hour ago, Liu Xiaoer, the guy of the Silver Book Inn, suddenly left the inn, and he and Zhao Dabao rode in the southeast direction, and they didn't know where they were going. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Li Feiyun speculated, "Yin Shushu asked Liu Xiaoer to go out in the middle of the night, it seems that there must be something very important for Liu Xiaoer to do." Xiao Zhou, you immediately lead 20 elite disciples of the Flying Knife Hall to quietly follow Liu Xiaoer, secretly protect his personal safety, and ensure that Liu Xiaoer arrives at the location he wants to go to smoothly. ”
"Yes. ”
After saying that, the disciples of the Flying Dao Hall immediately set off, and the 20 elite disciples caught up with Liu Xing and Zhao Dabao at full speed and began to escort them secretly......
……
At night.
Two black horses galloped through a wood.
"Xiao Er, it's the first time you've gone out, are you afraid?" Zhao Dabao asked with a smile.
"What's so scary?" Liu Xing said, "We've been running for almost an hour, and it's not smooth." ”
Zhao Dabao educated as an elder: "Little Er, don't take it lightly, the rivers and lakes are sinister, anything can happen." However, you don't have to worry too much, with me Zhao Dabao here, there must be no problem. ”
Liu Xing asked, "When will we arrive at Bagua Peak?"
"If nothing else, it's noon tomorrow. Zhao Dabao said, "Bagua Peak is in Bagua Town, and it will be there after passing through the Broken Back Mountain. ”
"Brokeback Mountain?" Liu Xing said, "Isn't that the place of the Tan-American Novel School?"
"Not bad. Zhao Dabao said, "I heard that some homosexuals hid at the foot of the Broken Back Mountain to be bandits, and they specially captured some beautiful men and arrested them as husbands in the village. We need to be more careful when we pass by Brokenback Mountain tomorrow. After all, I'm so handsome, I have to guard against it. ”
