Chapter 15: The Sudden Queen Medusa
"Ding, the host can go and buy the "Guanyin Heart Sutra", Guanyin used to be a real person of Cihang and belonged to the Celestial Empire, so her Buddhist scriptures are considered Celestial Dynasty culture." Receiving Su Yan's question, the system suggested to him.
"Guanyin Heart Sutra? Got it! Su Yan nodded, and then began to look at the place where he appeared.
Good guy, it's actually the county treasury of Qiantang County again, this is a sincere desire to send money to yourself!
What about the money, though?
Why are the boxes with the tax money gone?
Su Yan spared his head, very puzzled.
He didn't know, because he and Xiaoqing had a big fight here, which caused the doors to be broken, and Li Gongfu and the others were still asleep on the ground, the county order completely understood that it was impossible to prevent these thieves.
So, he moved all the tax money to another place, which was completely vacant.
"Well, if you don't, you won't, otherwise, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to help but go some way." Looking left and right, he didn't find any silver, and after a while, Su Yan gave up, he walked out of the original warehouse, and then jumped up and flew towards the outside of the county office.
Because of his speed, and most of the people in the county office were in the front hall, and there were not many patrolling in this backyard, no one noticed that a person flew out of here just now.
After flying out of the county office, Su Yan found a place where no one was around, and then walked straight to the street, found a bookstore that looked quite large, and asked them to buy three types of books.
First, the Guanyin Heart Sutra must be annotated.
Second, Han Feizi, there must be annotations.
Third, the Classic of Mountains and Seas must also have annotations.
These three books are all classics of the three schools of interpretation, law, and Taoism, and they correspond to the tastes of the three groups of people in the Douqi Continent, and it should be extremely suitable to use them as cultural classics for transmission.
Su Yan thought so in his heart.
"This son, you said that there are three books, and the small store has them, but if there is a note, the price will ......" The bookstore owner smiled at Su Yan, as if he was a little embarrassed.
However, Su Yan knew that he was embarrassed by this, and it was clear that the meaning was obvious.
"Is that enough? Give me as much as you want! Taking out the two silver ingots from Xiaoqing from his sleeve, Su Yan said to the bookstore owner.
Seeing that Su Yan's hand was so magnificent, it was twenty taels of silver, and the bookstore owner's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Come on, childe, don't worry, the quality of the books in the small shop is absolutely fine, and the annotations are even more first-class." As he spoke, the shopkeeper immediately began to instruct his subordinates to go to the warehouse to move books for Su Yan.
Twenty taels of silver, naturally you can't only buy three books, which can buy a lot of books!
During this Southern Song Dynasty, the price of books was still much cheaper than in previous dynasties.
Soon, hundreds of books were carried out by the clerk of the bookstore, originally the store owner said that he was willing to help Su Yan deliver them to the door, after all, he bought so many books, but Su Yan refused the kindness of the store owner, he asked to move all the books out directly, and he had a way to take them all.
Seeing Su Yan say this, the shopkeeper could only meet his requirements, and it was just right, and it also saved himself a trouble.
Twenty taels of silver, and two hundred copies of each of the three kinds of books were bought, which was okay.
took out the Leifeng Pagoda and put these books away, and suddenly, with a whoosh, under the shocked eyes of the owner and employees of this bookstore, all these books were collected by Su Yan into the Leifeng Tower.
Then, he said "goodbye" to a few people, and then calmly walked out of the bookstore.
"Boss, that man...... It can't be a god or a monster, right? After Su Yan left, the employees in the store spoke up to the owner who was still in a state of confusion.
When asked like this, the bookstore owner suddenly came back to his senses, bit his saliva, and said angrily to his employees: "As long as you talk a lot, whatever, let's open the door to do business, as long as people are here to do business sincerely, don't say that he may be a monster, even if it is a ghost, we will receive it!" ”
"Oh!" The employees in the bookstore bowed their heads in response, completely oblivious to the trembling legs of their boss, who was hiding behind the cabinet.
……
returned to the Douqi Continent with hundreds of cultural classics of the Celestial Empire, and appeared in the location where he was before he crossed, and he didn't see Xiaoqing and them, so he thought he was still doing what he told them, right?
Fortunately, Leifeng Pagoda is a magic weapon that can become bigger and smaller, and it can be used as a storage ring, otherwise with hundreds of books, Su Yan would not have the means to act at will.
"Now that the book is available, the next step is to find a suitable opportunity, so that the people here can willingly accept the influence of my Great Celestial Empire culture, that is, what kind of opportunity should I find? What a headache! I said system, is the big guy really doing this kind of thing to spread culture, can't you fight? It's simple and crude! Thinking a little bit of a headache, Su Yan immediately asked the system in his mind.
"Fighting is naturally a must-do for the big guys, but this is not in conflict with the spread of culture, if the host doesn't want to do this task, you can refuse, anyway, the system won't force it." The system replied.
Su Yan: "......"
Refuse? I don't want your silver-level martial arts treasure chest and a gold-level creature treasure chest?
Do you think I'll let such a treasure slip away from my eyes?
"Well, I'd better hold on and think hard!" Sighing, Su Yan said in a low voice.
"Boom!" At this moment, a colorful light suddenly flashed from the sky, stabbing his eyes subconsciously, and before he could open his eyes, he heard a blasting sound, and then the entire Stone Desert City began to riot.
"I'll go, what's going on?" The strong earth tremor made Su Yan's figure a little unstable, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to support the wall, and at the same time looked in the direction where the blasting sound just now came from, which was the direction of the stone desert city gate.
"Oh no, the snake people have invaded, everyone run!"
"Colorful light, it's Queen Medusa, Queen Medusa is here in person, hurry, everyone get out of here!"
"Fight, Douhuang is strong!"
……
Soon, a large number of residents in the city rushed wildly from Su Yan's eyes, and as they ran, they were still shouting something, because there were so many people shouting that the sound was very noisy, and people's ears hurt for a while.
However, Su Yan still heard a few words clearly, roughly saying that the snake people had invaded, and the leader was Queen Medusa.
Queen Medusa?
Su Yan's originally lazy eyes suddenly became bigger!
Oops, pills!
Run!
"Xiaoqing, Bai Fu, where are you, run, leave Stone Desert City!" Su Yan swept away his previous malaise and distress, quickly put away his thoughts, and ran in the other direction of the city with the large army, shouting loudly at the same time.
He didn't want to compete with a peak powerhouse like Queen Medusa, otherwise he would end the calf if he wasn't careful.
Queen Medusa's snake is different from Xiaoqing's snake, she is the snake king, and she is very powerful!
I'm a novice who doesn't have any combat experience and combat skills, so I still don't go up to join in the fun, anyway, this city is not mine, she wants to occupy it!
"Young Master, we're here!" Su Yan's shout was actually heard by Xiao Qing and the others, who were rushing towards this side, and then both sides ran towards each other, and then they were together.
"Young master, what's going on, why is everyone running for their lives, I've heard that the snake people have invaded, and what else is Queen Medusa, what's going on?" Seeing that Su Yan was safe and sound, Xiaoqing and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and then she asked Su Yan.
"It's similar to your demon siege, as for Queen Medusa, it's a powerhouse at the peak of the emperor, in short, it's very powerful, let's go quickly, don't get into trouble, I'm a little scared of that woman!" Su Yan said that he was going to take them with him, and he would rather run away than face the dangerous Queen Medusa.
He doesn't want to end up in the same fate as in the original book, or he'll go crazy!
"What, young master, are you afraid? Is that Queen Medusa so powerful? She's the queen of the snake people, right? I'm an upright pure snake, don't worry, young master, I'll protect you! Xiaoqing grabbed Su Yan and patted his chest and reassured.
Auntie, you can't beat me, I want you to protect me? Let's stop kidding, okay!
"Ding, the detection of the host triggered the butterfly effect, causing Queen Medusa to personally attack Stone Desert City, triggering a random world mission - fending off the snake people."
"Overworld, Random Mission: Defend against the Snake Man.
Description: Because of the butterfly effect caused by the host, Queen Medusa carried out an invasion of Stone Desert City that was not seen in the original book, causing many innocent lives to be sacrificed, please take your responsibility to help the people of Stone Desert City resist Queen Medusa, make the snake people withdraw from Stone Desert City, and return this land to the humans living here.
Rewards: A Bronze-level Sundries Chest, and a Silver-Level Elixir Chest.
Mission failed: All traversal channels are closed for half a year. ”
"What, the dog system, you are threatening me with closing the passage again, this time it's still half a year, what do you want to do in the system?!" was about to forcibly pull Xiaoqing to run away, and suddenly received a task from the system, seeing this task, Su Yan was so angry that he almost didn't scold his mother.
Dog system, do you know, I'm really afraid of Queen Medusa's snake?!
The tragic fate in the original book made me feel psychologically shadowed by her, do you know?
