Chapter 110: Please climb to the top of Penglai Mountain
The ranking order of [Colorful] is in no particular order, because the landlord who posted it himself does not know who is higher and who is lower in the strength of several people, but he ranks the approximate number of stars according to the strength that can be seen on the bright side.
Twelve stars.
This is the strongest rating among the known players, Bai Yan himself is a master with nine stars, and his strength is already quite outstanding, and Xiao San's assessment of how strong the twelve stars is already self-evident.
"There's a good chance he's the strongest player in Gensokkyo right now, I think." Wu Yinhe said, "The strength shown on the surface alone, no matter which group leader or lone master, can beat him." Lao Bai, don't blame me for being ambitious, even you. ”
Wu Yinhe already knew that he was the last "mysterious master" in the colorful ranking.
Bai Yan remembered the scene where Xiao San tore the monster apart, that kind of noisy wildness and domineering, he felt that he couldn't do that kind of thing.
However, Bai Yan naturally will not admit defeat easily, how can an opponent who has not experienced it personally know whether he wins or loses?
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "If it's okay, you have to compare and see before you know, one day you call Xiao San and talk to me again." ”
Wu Yinhe responded with a smile, and even joked: "Actually, Xiao San is still talking about comparing with the colorful ones all day long, and now there are almost no players in the old capital who can beat him, unless there are those lone rangers who rarely show their heads, otherwise if Xiao San says that he is the first in the old hell, no one will object." ”
"You can't do it either?"
Wu Yinhe didn't mention his specific strength to Bai Yan, but Bai Yan could vaguely guess that according to Wu Yinhe, he had to go all out in whatever he did. Presumably, the strength at this time is extremely strong.
"Nope." Wu Yinhe shook his head and said regretfully. "I've challenged him 44 times so far, none of which have been successful. I can't figure out where he is. ”
He smiled brightly: "I admit that he is better than me, but I will not give up, one day..."
Wu Yinhe's hand on the steering wheel tightened.
Bai Yan urged narrowly and said: "Peace of mind, you are talented, and you will definitely be able to sweep the Eight Desolations in the future** You are the only one, and Xiao San is nothing." ”
"Get out of here."
One sentence or two casually complained all the way, Wu Yinhe accompanied Bai Yan to the related. The department went through the delivery procedures.
"What's next, do you want my help?"
"Forget it, get your stuff home. It's also inconvenient to carry it around. ”
Bai Yan pushed away Wu Yinhe's help and said, "I made an appointment to take me out to eat in the evening." ”
"As far as you love to remember, I know, wait for my news."
Wu Yinhe was not hypocritical, he handed over the items to Bai Yan and drove away.
Bai Yan drove his classic car, and according to the address he received after paying the rent last time, he drove the car into the city center and turned around. It took a while to find the building.
Bai Yan spent a considerable amount of money to buy a new house in the city center, because the owner lived for two more months before leaving, so he could only rent it out for these two months.
"Seventeen floors..."
Parking the car in the garage downstairs, Bai Yan quickly reached the seventeenth floor of this building.
Because after buying a house, there is not much left on hand. He didn't rent a luxury apartment, just a general affordable house.
This room belongs to the landlord, so you can enter the house by entering the code lock set by the landlord.
Enter the password. Bai Yan walked into the door that opened automatically.
The structure of the house is simple, with warm walls. Opposite the door is a floor-to-ceiling window that looks down from the tall building. There is a feeling of weightlessness in particular. The outer room is the living room, which is a common area for the tenants, with sofas, long tables, virtual screens, kitchens, refrigerators and other common equipment, and there are hangers for hanging coats at the door, the whole space is not large, but it just creates a warm atmosphere.
With a door on the left and right sides, it was clear that the room would only accommodate two tenants.
There was no sign of anyone in the room for the time being, Bai Yan hung his coat on the hanger, and went in towards his left door.
The space inside the house is not too large, with a bedroom and a bathroom occupying it.
The house was empty, the layout was simple, but the windows were clear, and the landlord didn't leave anything but the bed and basic living equipment. Bai Yan roughly estimated the location, and began to go up and down a few times, carrying a bunch of his own things.
Although science and technology are now developed, there is a direct passage from the warehouse to the seventeenth floor, and Bai Yan hardly has to make any effort to move up, but there is still a section of road from the exit of the passage to Bai Yan's residence, all kinds of furniture, bits and pieces, large bags and small bags to move back and forth, but Bai Yan is not difficult. Beads of sweat from all over his body soaked his clothes, vaguely outlining the muscles of Bai Yan's body full of strength.
Judging from his appearance, Bai Yan undoubtedly belongs to the well-proportioned type, coupled with his lonely and cold temperament, others are more likely to feel that he is as thin as a bamboo, but in fact, his body is very strong, and his muscle lines are not as exaggerated as those that can hold up the whole of the clothes, they are basically streamlined, and his strength is hidden.
Since he was a child, he has paid attention to exercising himself, and although most of the things in the new generation can be assisted by technology, in his opinion, it is important to pay attention to his body.
It took some time for Bai Yan to tidy up the bedroom that he would live in for two months according to the arrangement of his old residence. Feeling empty, I remembered that there was a kitchen outside, and walked out the door.
Opening the refrigerator, Bai Yan smiled slightly and thanked the landlord for his thoughtfulness. The landlord specially prepared some dishes in the refrigerator for emergencies, Bai Yan took a few that he would do, and made a few dishes at random, by the way, the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and other seasonings in the kitchen are also readily available.
In fact, the new generation not only has an all-round housekeeper robot for housework, but also a magical food that can withstand a whole day's hunger after a few bites, but that thing tastes quite bad, and Bai Yan is really too lazy to buy a housekeeper to take care of himself.
A few steaming side dishes were placed on the table, Bai Yan smiled a little, and folded his hands and said: "Celebrate the joy of housewarming, and by the way, miss the old house again." ”
Close your eyes and read silently, then use your chopsticks to click and eat.
When Bai Yan is alone. Some of the behaviors are quite childish.
While eating, you can enjoy the sky scenery from high to low from the floor-to-ceiling windows. One of the reasons why Bai Yan, who is nostalgic for the old, chose this house is that there is a floor-to-ceiling window that is the same as his own.
The sky outside is boring, and the sky is of course 108,000 miles worse than the sky in Gensokyo. But when I didn't have Gensokyo, it was still unsatisfactory, and it was better than nothing.
After eating, he did some small activities as usual, and Bai Yan began his afternoon work. He has a habit of starting the next month's manuscript at the end of the month.
There was no idea for the time being, and just before the other tenant arrived, Bai Yan began to pace back and forth between his room and the living room to find ideas, occasionally writing down something on the virtual clipboard, and at this time he occasionally showed a very pure smile on his face.
When a person is immersed in their own world. Time tends to get fast. Bai Yan had just given his manuscript a good start, and wrote down the next ideas and outline, and the call of "Di Di Di" pulled him out of the world of the article reluctantly.
"Di Di Di" rang for a moment, Bai Yan frowned and didn't answer, it finally stopped.
It must be Lao Wu's call from dinner, but if he doesn't answer it, he naturally understands what I'm doing.
"Whew-"
Thinking so, he let out a soft sigh and looked up at the window. It's getting dark. The neon lights are connected together, as if to set the night on fire.
After all, the city center is no better than the suburbs where I lived before, in the evening, with all the shops. Clubhouses, and even ordinary buildings, turn on their own lights to illuminate the city at night.
Bai Yan walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down. Floating cars are constantly shuttling on the road, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians on the road. What catches your eye is a bustling scene.
Bai Yan looked at all this lightly and turned on the missed call. The signature is [Li Tiangong], look at the call record below, from before to now, there are more than a dozen calls.
"Ah, it turned out to be Brother Li... Embarrassed. ”
Since they knew each other in reality before, the two have been in contact from time to time, mostly through information exchanges or small talk, and the friendship has increased invisibly. Even if he knows Li Tiangong's identity, Bai Yan is still Bai Yan, neither humble nor arrogant, he still speaks how he should speak, without any flattery.
But his mind is not so simple. Wu Yinhe mentioned it, and he himself felt that Li Tiangong had some intention of soliciting him. Although Bai Yan didn't feel that he had anything worthy of the surname Li, he just took a fancy to it.
Since Li Tiangong is a representative of such a behemoth as the Seven Surnames, some things are actually unbearable to him, if the surname Li as a whole has any needs for himself, Li Tiangong will not be able to stop him even if he is good with himself.
With such a small role, what can the surname Li want? This is a question that Bai Yan has been puzzled with.
Since he couldn't figure it out, Bai Yan regarded it as Li Tiangong's appreciation of himself, after all, the time he cooperated with Li Tiangong, the outburst of the dark crow step was quite eye-catching.
Bai Yan was not aware of the fantasy Sky War or the abnormalities of the entire new generation of mankind.
His fingers moved up and down the callback button, and he didn't know where to go.
After a while, Li Tiangong's call rang again, Bai Yan pressed to answer, and Li Tiangong's face appeared on the virtual screen.
"Brother Bai, good evening."
"Brother Li is good." Bai Yan smiled lightly, which could be regarded as a greeting.
"Brother Bai is free tonight, there is something important about leaning the bow, if you want to meet Brother Bai, can you not be stingy?"
Li Tiangong's ordinary face, which has always had a smile of ease, showed a serious look, which was revealed from the virtual screen.
Bai Yan wanted to resign, but when he saw Li Tiangong's face, he swallowed what he was about to say.
"There is a small party, since Brother Li has something important to discuss, please inform me of the location, I will be there later." Bai Yan also said seriously.
Li Tiangong's expression slowed slightly, and his face was slightly happy: "Brother Bai doesn't need to bother, Tiangong has already sent someone to pick you up, and please don't be surprised by Brother Bai." ”
Bai Yan shook his head, with such great ability as the surname Li, it is not easy to find a civilian address, this is really nothing strange, just as Bai Yan has a lot of knowledge about Li Tiangong through various channels, Li Tiangong must have already checked Bai Yan thoroughly.
After a few more words with Li Tiangong, he hung up the phone.
sent a message to Wu Yinhe, "Li Tiangong said that he had something important to ask me, cancel it in the evening, and come back to talk in detail", and soon received Wu Yinhe's reply, "Don't be gullible, act cautiously, and be careful in everything."
Bai Yan smiled slightly, it was not a Longtan tiger's den, Lao Wu was really anxious.
Bai Yan didn't know that Wu Yinhe had always had unusual doubts about the involvement of the Chinese in the seven surnames in the game, especially when Wu Yinhe's parents suddenly sent him earrings, which made him even more suspicious.
It's not that I'm afraid of what Li Tiangong will do to Bai Yan, this society is not so dark. It's that he doesn't want Bai Yan's pure dream of flying in the sky to be artificially destroyed by something else.
After all, the only people in this world who have always cherished each other's dreams are each other.
Soon someone knocked on the door, Bai Yan looked at the surveillance, and there were four well-dressed young men outside, their eyes were bright, and the team was well-trained, it seemed that this was the person surnamed Li.
"Is it Mr. Bai Yan? We were sent by the young master to pick you up. The leading young man said respectfully to the surveillance.
Bai Yan casually put on a shirt, walked to the door, picked up his coat from the coat support, put it on, and opened the door.
"Hello Mr. Bai, my name is Fang Cun, I am the security captain of the young master, how to call me, just do what you want." The refreshing inch head smiled at Bai Yan.
Is this the big family? Security team or something... This is too Mary Sue, isn't it? And this inch, the look is really refreshing...
Even if Bai Yan has 10,000 complaints in his heart, it is inconvenient to show it on his face at this moment, since he was born, it is the first time that he has been treated with such respect, and his heart has not fluctuated when he is mistreated, but he is a little apprehensive at this time.
It can only be said that he really doesn't give orders.
"Square inch... Yes, then, take me to see Brother Li. Bai Yan reluctantly said lightly.
"Yes."
Fang Cun's group completely treated Bai Yan according to Li Tiangong's specifications, and they were very careful to entertain them, and when they drove, they also chose a special empty road, and took a lot of detours before they came to the restaurant where they had dinner with Li Tiangong last time.
The furnishings and style of this restaurant are very similar to the izakaya in the world, so Bai Yan was very impressed by this place, and later learned that this place is the same as the one at the last class reunion, it is the property of the surname Li, and similarly, there is no name.
When Bai Yan walked in alone, Li Tiangong was already waiting for him where he sat last time.
Seeing him, Li Tiangong smiled and said, "Brother Bai, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
"Long time no see."
The two simply greeted each other and sat down.
"Then I'll get straight to the point." Li tilted his bow and opened his mouth extremely happily.
"Hmm." Bai Yan stared.
Li Tiangong's ordinary face suddenly appeared with a flying look.
"In the name of my Li Qiangong, today I officially invite you Bai Yanfei to become the vice president of the Super Crossbow Guild [Penglai Mountain], in the future, there will be dozens of groups of more than ten races in the association, except for me, only you are from!"
