Chapter Fifty-Six: A Chance Encounter, the Assassin [Seeking Collection]
"Isn't Pavilion Master Li tempted and wants to recruit this talent?" the old woman glanced at the lively Canglan City.
"It is rare to see such a talent who can be civil and martial, and the military and government go hand in hand......"
The meaning of Pavilion Master Li is self-evident.
It's just that the Bafang Pavilion family has a great cause, and there are countless such people who have seen it. The old woman was unimpressed...... After a few more conversations, it was just because the young lady was interested.
"Mother-in-law, why don't we go to Chengli to have fun~Okay~" Mingyue shook the old woman's arm lightly
"Good...... Good ......," the old woman shook her head and smiled,
"Miss......"
"No need Uncle Li, just have my mother-in-law with me, you can go and get busy" After speaking, he pulled the old woman out in a hurry.
Canglan Street is very lively at this time, the river is endless, and the people are boiling.
It was the fifteenth day of the first month, and it was the annual lantern festival in Heishui Country. The thriving Canglan City gives people hope, and the streets of Canglan City at this time are full of colorful lanterns of different shapes.
The girl Mingyue pulled her mother-in-law to run around excitedly, look here and there.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Lu Chen walked on the street in a green shirt without fear of the cold. It is strange to say that this Black Water Country is also strange! Only Nanli Prefecture, which is located in the southern land, will snow, but the land of the four states located in the north of the Heishui country has never snowed, even the Tianhan Prefecture, which is known for its coldness.
Lu Chen was amazed~
The annual Lantern Festival, the first festival he encountered when he first came to this world, Lu Chen still wanted to see it very much!
Lu Chen and his entourage walked on the street in light clothes, Xu Chu protected them, and Zhang Long and Zhao Hu opened the way.
Sure enough, compared to the small Dongshan City, this Canglan County Town is indeed more lively! After all, this is a big city with a population of no less than 30 million!
Isn't this the riddle of the previous life......
Lu Chen looked at the colorful lights on the side of the street, it really looked like it!
Langui Restaurant on Yuanyang Street is holding a grand lantern riddle!
Lu Chen wandered around and came here unconsciously, and at this time, the girl Mingyue also pulled her mother-in-law and happened to come here!
The nine-storey restaurant of Langui Restaurant is full of joy, and the row of lantern riddles attracts many customers and talents to come to the competition.
Lu Chen watched on the side for a while before he understood the rules, and there are many lantern fans on each floor of the nine-story Langui Restaurant, as long as you can answer nine lantern riddles on each floor continuously, you can get the final prize - one hundred taels of gold!
One hundred taels of gold is indeed a lot for ordinary people, and not only that, but this is also an opportunity to become famous! I believe that no matter for the sake of wealth and fame, I will not miss it.
Of course, Lu Chen was not interested in rewards,
But this game can make him feel a little interested.
"This young master, are you going to participate in the competition?" a waiter asked with a smile when he saw Lu Chen approaching.
"Play ......"
"Okay, that's for you~"
Immediately, nine lanterns appeared in front of Lu Chen's eyes, and there was a lantern riddle on each lantern.
Lu Chen became interested and opened the first one
It's an anagram, "Fly on the grass - guess a word"
Lu Chen knew the answer at a glance,
"Morning!"
"That's right, Childe is awesome - the next ......"
Awesome yarn......
Lu Chen didn't care, and continued to read,
[When the drawing is round, when the writing is square, it is warm, not cold without it - guess the word?]
It's still an anagram, but it's more difficult. Ordinary people really can't really remember it, but Lu Chen is not an ordinary person.
When you draw a circle, when you write a square, warm and cool? This has already given the answer.
"Day!"
"Childe Dacai ~ Next Question"
Lu Chen's footsteps didn't stop, and then opened the third riddle,
......
Lu Chen passed all the way and finally came to the ninth riddle, and at this time, there were already a lot of lively spectators behind Lu Chen, wanting to see if the young man in front of him would break nine riddles in a row and climb to the second floor
Lu Chen opened the ninth riddle and looked at it,
[Looking south at the lone star eyebrows and the moon rising - type]
This...... This is a little difficult, and the spectators behind him can't help but regret,
"It's a pity, this is too difficult, I'm afraid I can't guess it"
"yes, this reward is really not easy to get......"
......
Lu Chen was unmoved, but at first glance it was not easy, but Lu Chen understood it after thinking about it carefully
This "up the north, down the south, left west, right east", "south look" refers to the lower part of the word "hope", the word "king", "lone star" refers to a point, and "eyebrow moon" refers to the moon at the beginning of the month, like a skimm.
"Apostrophe" is added to the left of the word "Wang", and "point" is on the top of the word "Wang", and the combination of the three parts becomes the word "Zhuang".
But for a moment, Lu Chen gave the answer with just a frown
"I don't know if it's Zhuang?"
"Childe is really talented! It is the word Zhuang! Congratulations, Childe, please ...... upstairs"
Lu Chen nodded with satisfaction, and took his entourage to the second floor of Langui Restaurant.
The crowd of spectators behind him couldn't help but exclaim,
"I guessed it right!"
"Awesome, awesome"
"yes, I'm still blindfolded."
The second floor of Langui Restaurant is not much different from the first floor, and there are still a lot of people upstairs, which is very lively.
Lu Chen walked up the stairs, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a girl who made his eyes shine!
There is such a beautiful national color and natural fragrance in the world! It is simply a sinking fish and a goose closing the moon and a shy flower——
At this moment, Lu Chen felt that he was in love......
However, Lu Chen was not an ordinary person after all, he just glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, and then walked by not far from the girl with a look of passing by.
“...... It smells so good!"
Such a beautiful girl has no one to talk to?
Lu Chen looked at the old woman beside the girl, and turned his head to look at Xu Chu.
"Not weak-" Xu Chu only confided two words, but in Lu Chen's ears, he was surprised!
If you can make Xu Chu say that it is not weak, it is very strong!
You must know that after three months of cultivation, Xu Chu's current realm has reached the peak of the triple realm of the earth, and the six forbidden combat power is enough to be invincible in the earth-shattering realm!
can make Xu Chu say that he is not weak, then the old woman in front of him is at least the strength of the Nine Layers of Earth Evil, and it may still be the peak of Earth Evil.
When did this kind of character exist in Canglan City?
As far as Lu Chen knew, in the entire Canglan County City, there were only a few people who had reached the high level of the Earth Demons.
It seems that this time is time for Chen Deng to be more vigilant!
And as Lu Chen and the others went upstairs, the old woman next to the girl also frowned, there was actually an existence that she couldn't understand. The old woman raised her eyes and looked at Lu Chen and his party, a young man, and three entouragemen, looking at Xu Chu's majestic body, but she couldn't sense any strength...... It's strange, but it's possible that he's just an ordinary servant.
Lu Chen passed by the girl and stopped at a lantern riddle, and after a while, Lu Chen's eight lantern riddles attracted the attention of many people around him. At this time, the girl Mingyue on the side successfully answered nine lantern riddles with her smart little head, and just wanted to go upstairs when she saw the heroic Lu Chen on the side-
The girl tiptoed to Lu Chen's side curiously, her big bright eyes flashing with curiosity.
Lu Chen felt a little, and glanced back and happened to look at the girl!
The girl smiled, her eyes bent into crescents, and she raised her small fist to give him a cheering gesture~ Then she was pulled away by the old woman on the side, the girl stuck out her tongue, waved goodbye to Lu Chen, and then went up to the third floor......
What a beautiful and playful girl! Lu Chen's heart was rippling
The taste of love...... No, it's the taste of hormones~
Upstairs?
Lu Chen came back to his senses and opened the ninth riddle with a hiss,
[Shrimp playing in the water in the mountain stream on all sides - guess the word]
It's not a simple anagram, but at this time, Lu Chen's thoughts were flying, and he knew the answer just by looking at it.
"Mountains and streams on all sides" means that the four "mountain" characters are combined into one "Tian" character, "shrimp" is shaped like a lying hook, and "playing in the water" means that there are several points of water around the lying hook, and once combined, it is the word "Si".
"Lovesick thoughts!" Lu Chen opened his mouth to come
"Childe, please upstairs—"
Lu Chen didn't look at the people behind him who were talking, raised his eyes to look upstairs, and walked up quickly.
Look for the beautiful woman......
3rd Floor, Lan Kwai Building......
4th Floor ......
5th Floor ......
6th Floor......
......
8th Floor ......
Every time Lu Chen arrived at the floor where the girl was, the girl would exactly complete the nine lantern riddles...... Then Lu Chen could only watch the girl climb the stairs, making Lu Chen vomit blood in a depressed mood!
Gua Wazi is ruthless!
But watching this girl go all the way, this little girl is not only beautiful and fragrant, but also smart.
Lu Chen smacked his lips, huh...... Eight pounds and eight taels with yourself!
Regretfully watching the girl step on the ninth floor first, Lu Chen did not panic and started his own journey of lantern riddles.
Now it's the eighth floor, except for the guests who didn't participate in the competition, they can go up to the eighth floor, and basically all of them are handsome talents.
On the eighth floor, in addition to the girl who had just gone up, plus Lu Chen, there were five young talents.
However, looking at the five young handsomes in front of him who rarely couldn't wait, Lu Chen could think of the girl who looked like a fairy.
Obviously, everyone has a love for beauty.
It's because they are attracted to girls.
However, the riddles on the eighth floor are not so easy to guess.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be just a few people on the eighth floor.
Lu Chen passed all the way, and finally ushered in the last riddle on the eighth floor!
[One shade and one darkness, one short and one long, one day and one night, one hot and one cold.] - type]
It's-
What's so hard about that?
"The sun and the moon are bright!"
"Congratulations to Childe - Childe, please come upstairs with me, please!"
Lu Chen passed the test again, looking at the young talents who were meditating on the side, proud~ It's still nine years of compulsory education!
Shi Shiran went upstairs!
On the platform of the ninth floor of Langui Restaurant, Lu Chen walked up unhurriedly.
Pavilion, Haoyue, beautiful woman -
On the ninth floor of Langui Restaurant, there is only one lantern riddle that has not yet been revealed.
Lu Chen raised his eyes, but saw that two of the three seats had now been occupied.
Seeing this, Lu Chen realized that only three people could successfully come up to this last layer in the end.
In addition to the girl, the other person is a rather handsome young man, who looks afraid that he is not an ordinary person. However, Lu Chen didn't care, nodded to the girl and sat on the last seat.
The shopkeeper saw that the third talent had arrived, so he unveiled the last riddle.
......
But at this moment, four black-clothed people suddenly rushed out of Langui Restaurant, rushing to Lu Chen's side, smiling and smiling, a beautiful girl!
