Chapter 447: Dry mouth
"Where did Yang Guo go?"
Almost at the same time, in front of a newsstand in Huaguo, Chen Tao, who was a door-to-door salesman, also had the same doubts as the recruit Qi Fei and others, as well as all the readers who were watching Yitian.
At the end of the Condor, Chen Tao lost his mind for a long time, because after the end of the Condor, he suddenly seemed to have lost the most important thing in his life.
Door-to-door salesman, as soon as he heard the name, he knew that it was not a good job, but Chen Tao, who had just graduated from school, had to accept such a job to make ends meet temporarily.
During the work, Chen Tao endured too many disdainful eyes and shouting and scolding, every day of work, Chen Tao felt very tired, and then thought of the relationship after graduating from college, facing real problems and breaking up, Chen Tao felt that he was very depressed and painful.
And when Chen Tao was the most depressed and painful, the only thing that could relieve his emotions was "The Condor Heroes" in the martial arts newspaper.
No matter how much work pressure is and how boring it is, as long as he looks at the Condor, Chen Tao's mood can be quickly calmed down, because Chen Tao saw in the Condor that there is still true love in the world, and true love that is not afraid of distance, time, and the gap between each other's identities, and also saw how Yang Guo in the Condor has gradually transformed from a "bad boy" who is despised by many people to Yang Daxia who is feared by everyone.
Whether it is true love or Yang Guo's history of struggle, this is the reason why Chen Tao has to watch the Condor every issue, and it is precisely because of this reason that Chen Tao has become his habit of looking at the Condor every day, so at the moment when the Condor ends. Chen Tao's mood is very complicated.
He was not only happy for the love that finally had a lover in it, but also proud of Yang Guo's transformation from a "bad boy" to Yang Daxia, but he felt even more disappointed that he would not be accompanied by the Condor in the future.
After the end of the Condor. Chen Tao also read "The Story of Seeking Qin", although in Chen Tao's opinion, "The Story of Seeking Qin" is indeed a good book, but Chen Tao, who is used to seeing the Condor, can't fully devote himself to the search for Qin anyway, so slowly, Chen Tao put down the book of Xun Qin.
Without the company of books. Without his daily pastime, Chen Tao felt that his life had returned to its original state, and he felt endless pressure rushing towards him every day.
After the end of the New Year's holidays. Chen Tao started his boring job at one time, although he is much more familiar with the work than at the beginning, and the business volume and monthly salary are also much more. But his heart. But he was not happy, he still missed the mood he had when he first saw the Condor, so after he learned that the Condor Books were on sale, he quickly bought one, and then stuffed the Condor Books into his briefcase and carried them with him, and took them out to read in his spare time.
Early this morning, Chen Tao started work as usual, carrying a briefcase and stuffing his pocket with business cards, ready to start selling the products sold by his company door-to-door. However, when he passed by a newsstand, he saw that the title of the book "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" was written very large on the small blackboard of the newsstand.
Out of curiosity. In order to buy a bottle of water to drink at the newsstand, Chen Tao walked to the small blackboard of the newsstand and looked at it.
"Inheriting "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", connecting the author of the martial arts masterpiece "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which has swept countless readers, Qiming is publishing a new work!"
Before walking into the small blackboard, Chen Tao just had a trace of curiosity, but as soon as he saw this title, Chen Tao felt that he was suddenly excited, and his heart instantly began to beat wildly, because he saw the words "The Condor Heroes".
"Heaven and Dragon Slayer", start Guo Xiang's journey of chasing love, in the new year, Guo Xiang, the first person in martial arts, written by Qiming, will take you to the world of martial arts again!"
Puff, puff......
Seeing the publicity of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", Chen Tao felt that he was originally just a little thirsty in his mouth, but his mouth suddenly became dry and his heart was beating violently.
"Old ...... Boss, let's have a martial arts...... Martial arts newspapers! ”
Chen Tao said excitedly and pleasantly to the newsstand owner.
Chen Tao can bear the thirst, but the desire/desire to see the follow-up story of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and the story of Guo Xiang's journey to pursue love, Chen Tao can't bear it.
"Martial arts? It's sold out...... You don't know, there is simply not enough to sell! This Qiming, the book he wrote is so popular that I can't even read it, so I want to watch him write books all day long. ”
The newsstand owner said apologetically, and praised Qi Ming by the way.
"Sold out?"
Chen Tao suddenly became very disappointed, but with this family not, the next one must be in the mood, Chen Tao is not too disappointed.
"Yes, it was less than two hours after the door opened, and all the martial arts in this issue were sold out, and not only me, there are places that sell martial arts within a few kilometers near me, all of them are sold out, this "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" is too popular, but then again, there is a mass base of eagle archery and condor, plus Qiming's current fame, I am not surprised that the martial arts serialized "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" can have this result!"
The newsstand owner didn't know that Chen Tao was still in the mood of expectation, and was instantly crushed by his words, but explained to Chen Tao as if he had opened a chatterbox.
“……”
Chen Tao's heart was collapsed and speechless at this time.
"That, boss, can you sell me the martial arts you have in your hand?"
In addition to being disappointed, Chen Tao suddenly saw that the newsstand owner was still holding a copy of martial arts in his hand, so he asked in surprise.
When the newsstand owner heard this, he immediately cautiously shrunk the martial arts newspaper into his arms, and then said, "That's not good, I'll keep this and watch that." ”
After speaking, the newsstand owner suddenly saw Chen Tao's expectant and disappointed eyes, at this moment, the newsstand owner's heart softened suddenly, he seemed to see the frustration of his youth in society, but when he encountered hope, he fell short.
"If you really want to see it, I'll lend it to you and give it back to me after you've finished it." The newsstand owner said.
"Huh?"
"Thank you so much." After confirming the news, Chen Tao suddenly felt that he was too happy.
So Chen Tao bought two bottles of water. One bottle was given directly to the boss, and the other bottle was twisted open and drank first, then smacked his lips and happily walked to the stool not far from the newsstand with the martial arts magazine in his arms and sat down.
The newsstand owner drank Chen Tao's water. Thinking of his newsstand boss, martial arts will not be long before there will be new arrivals, so he shouted at Chen Tao's back, "This martial arts is given to you, just come and visit it often in the future." ”
"That's for sure!" Chen Tao said with a smile when he heard this.
After all, it's better to have it than if you have it, you can watch it anytime and anywhere, so Chen Tao feels really happy at this time.
"Today day. My luck will definitely blow up!! ”
Thinking like this, Chen Tao began to watch "Heaven and Dragon Slayer".
With the text of reading the newsstand to promote "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" before, Chen Tao knew that the protagonist of this book would be Guo Xiang.
But for no reason. When he saw Guo Xiang riding a little donkey, Chen Tao's heart couldn't help but tremble, and a beautiful girl's voice that he imagined suddenly sounded in his mind calling Yang Guo "big brother".
"Although I like to have a lover and eventually become married, I also hope that you can get Yang Guo's love!"
I saw Guo Xiang go to Shaolin Temple to pursue Yang Guo's whereabouts. and recalled all kinds of Guo Xiang in the Condor. Seeing that Guo Xiang went out for three years in order to pursue the news of Yang Guo, and his footprints were all over the place, Chen Tao couldn't help but be moved by Guo Xiang's infatuation with Yang Guo again.
When he shot the condor, Xiao Guo Xiang was sixteen years old!
At the beginning of Yitian, Guo Xiang was already a girl of nineteen years old.
For three years, he has been chasing the whereabouts and news of one, Guo Xiang's dedication to love will touch everyone who has love in his heart.
Yitian's story flashed in front of Chen Tao's eyes word by word, and then the words turned into the picture that Chen Tao thought and interpreted it in his mind.
Finally. When he saw Guo Xiang asking the colorless Zen master if he knew the news of Yang Guo, the picture in Chen Tao's mind paused temporarily. Instead, he looked intently at Yitian Zhengwen and waited for the colorless Zen master's answer.
However, when Chen Tao saw the colorless Zen master, he also asked Guo Xiang and said, "A few years ago, Yang Daxia came to our temple for a few days, and he talked to the old monk very well, and then he fought against the enemy in Xiangyang. At that time, Chen Tao was suddenly disappointed.
"Where did Yang Guo go?"
At this moment, Chen Tao couldn't help but ask himself for Guo Xiang and his curiosity.
But there would be no answer in this way, so Chen Tao continued to look down at Yitian.
Looking at it, although he hasn't gotten an answer yet, but in the text of Yitian, Chen Tao saw the key plot of connecting the Condor, and the reason why Monk Jueyuan should be punished.
“…… Guo Xiang asked, "Brother Zhang, what are they doing to bully your master?" Your master is full of superb internal skills, where are you afraid of them? ”
"The girl who is the author of this matter actually knows it, and it's not for the sake of the "Ranga Sutra". Zhang Junbao said.
Guo Xiang said, "Ah, is it the scripture stolen for Xiao Xiangzi and Yin Kexi?" "Zhang Junbao said" Yes, that day at the top of Huashan, the villain got the guidance of Yang Guoxia, and searched the whole body of the two people, after a Huashan, I can no longer find the traces of these two people, my master and apprentice are helpless, I have to go back to the temple to report to the abbot, the "Lenga Sutra" is written by the Bodhidharma Patriarch himself, the first seat of the precept hall blames my master for carelessness, so that the loss of such a priceless treasure, heavy punishment, is deserved. ”
Guo Xiang sighed and said, "That's called bad luck, what crime deserves?" She was only a few years older than Zhang Junbao, but she regarded herself as an eldest sister, and asked, "For this matter, I punished your master for not allowing him to speak?" ”
Zhang Junbao said, "This is the precept passed down from generation to generation in the temple, shackles to carry water, not allowed to speak, I heard the old Zen masters in the temple say, although this is a punishment, but it is actually very beneficial to the punished people." If a person does not speak, it is easy to improve his cultivation, and he can also strengthen his body by carrying water in chains. Guo Xiang smiled and said, "In this way, your master is not only not punished, but is practicing, but it is my troubles." ”
Zhang Junbao hurriedly said, "The girl is very grateful, Master and I are very grateful, and we will never forget it." Guo Xiang sighed softly and said in his heart, "But others have already forgotten about me." All he heard was the crowing of a donkey in the woods, and the young donkey was grazing in the woods. Guo Xiang said, "Brother Zhang, you don't have to send me." With a whistle and beckoning the green donkey to approach, Zhang Junbao was quite reluctant, but he had nothing to say.
Guo Xiang handed him the pair of iron-cast Arhats in his hand and said, "This is for you." Zhang Junbao was stunned, didn't dare to reach out to pick it up, and said, "This ...... This ......," Guo Xiang said, "I told you, and you accepted it." Zhang Junbao said, "I'...... I ...... "Guo Xiang stuffed the iron arhat into his hand, jumped over, and got on the back of the donkey......"
"It turns out that the reason why Monk Jueyuan was punished was because of the "Lenga Sutra" at the end of the Condor, Xiao Xiangzi and Yin Kexi stole the "Lenga Sutra", and Zhang Junbao and Monk Jueyuan did not recover the "Lenga Sutra", so they have to be punished, this foreshadowing is so deep, but such a deep foreshadowing, now digging it out does not feel abrupt at all, it is really worthy of enlightenment!" Chen Tao looked at Yitian and said secretly in his heart.
Understanding the reason why Monk Jueyuan was punished, Chen Tao was suddenly confused by Zhang Junbao's stunned appearance, "Stupid!" ”
And the reason why Chen Tao called Zhang Junbao stupid was because Chen Tao saw the embarrassment that Zhang Junbao showed when he parted with Guo Xiang.
When Guo Xiang went down the mountain, Zhang Junbao sent him off, which in Chen Tao's view, this situation is the easiest time to breed feelings, although he hopes that Guo Xiang can find her infatuated Yang Daxia, but he also hopes that Guo Xiang can have a good home and have someone who loves her, and Zhang Junbao is obviously very in line with Chen Tao's thoughts.
Honest, loyal, and not deceiving, Zhang Junbao's personality makes Chen Tao feel that he will be a good man, and more importantly, Chen Tao can see that Zhang Junbao likes Guo Xiang, so Chen Tao hopes that Zhang Junbao can bravely seize the opportunity, instead of watching the person he likes leave.
But to Chen Tao's disappointment, Zhang Junbao did not seize the opportunity, but did not even dare to reach out to receive the gift given to him by Guo Xiang......
"You'll regret it, you!"
Chen Tao looked at Yitian and said to Zhang Junbao in his heart.
With hatred for Zhang Junbao in his heart, Chen Tao continued to look at Yitian.
"Huh?"
"Who are these Kunlun Three Sages? Why do you dare to give Shaolin Temple a war letter? ”
Seeing that Guo Xiang was about to leave the Shaolin Temple, but was stopped by the colorless Zen master to ask about the Three Sages of Kunlun, Chen Tao's curiosity was also fished up at once.
……
On this day, because "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" was serialized in martial arts newspapers and magazines, the sales of martial arts climbed directly to 2.3 million, and all of them were sold out in less than three hours nationwide.
The peak sales of martial arts were originally less than 1.9 million, but once Yitian was serialized, it increased the sales of martial arts by 400,000, and this terrifying increase in speed surprised the literary circle and many publishing houses in China.
Sales, that is easy to improve in the early stage, but extremely difficult to improve in the later stage.
However, the newspaper of martial arts seems to have ignored this rule all along, and every time it is jumping to increase sales, how can this not surprise and shock industry insiders.
The sales of martial arts have risen, and the personnel of many publishing houses in China are shocked and surprised, but one publishing house is not only shocked, but also has a sense of crisis.
And this publishing house is Wenfang Publishing House, which serializes "Ming Long".
Wenfang Publishing House, a first-class publishing house in China, has an average sales volume of 1.9 million newspapers and periodicals, and a peak sales volume of 2.25 million.
The book "Ming Long" is the first step for Sun Simiao, the editor-in-chief of Wenfang Publishing House, to enter a super-first-class publishing house.
And "Minglong" did not disappoint him, in the first issue of Wenfang Newspaper, the sales of Wenfang Newspaper and Periodical increased to the level of its peak, and it also exceeded the sales of 150,000.
This data was originally excellent, and it was also what Sun Simiao was looking forward to.
But when Sun Simiao learned that the top sales of martial arts newspapers and periodicals had broken through the 2 million mark and had broken through to the 2.3 million mark, and there was only a gap of 100,000 from the peak sales of Wenfang newspapers and periodicals, Sun Simiao was a little panicked.
