Chapter 8: The Night Is Silent
The dark night is the most terrible!
......
Ever since Lou Qingyue came back after meeting the messenger, she didn't say a word, and the smile on her face in the past few days disappeared.
"Brother Lou, what do you think, you say it, you don't say a word like this, it's really exciting!"
What the hell is going on? Even Xu Manlu is so anxious! A couple who usually have nothing to say and have no guesses to say at this time have nothing to say!
"It's nothing, let me be alone for a while, you can rest early......" Lou Qingyue looked at Xu Manlu and stopped talking.
Xu Manlu didn't know what to say, so she had to go back to her room, and this night, the two of them had insomnia at the same time......
The leaves are pale, the white dew is frost, the so-called Yi people, on the water side......
Lou Qingyue thought about how painful Xu Manlu had been in the past few years, and how much he missed him.
He often recited this poem to express the pain of longing, but now he ......
Lou Qingyue didn't know what it was like in her heart!
It was still a silent night, Lou Qingyue was lying on the bed, and she could hear her heartbeat quietly. In another room, the same sound of a heart beating fills the room!
Lou Qingyue was so curious, so eager to see the messenger, but when he saw it, why did he react so much? So, what happened?
It turned out that early in the morning, Lou Qingyue followed Xu Manlu to meet the messenger as usual. They took the ladder to the top of the mountain pavilion that they went to every day, and then walked forward for about a quarter of an hour, and in front of them was a blue sea and waves, a vast expanse, green like a pearl in the sea.
"It's amazing here, there is such a big and beautiful lake on the top of the mountain!" Lou Qingyue said in surprise.
"Brother Lou, this is not a lake, this is the sea!" Xu Manlu explained.
"The sea, it's impossible, this is on the top of the mountain, how can it be the sea?" Lou Qingyue asked in even more surprise.
"Brother Lou, what am I lying to you for, this is Beihai!"
"Beihai? Isn't Beihai in the northernmost place? Where Su Wu shepherded sheep back then, this is still a good story! Why did Beihai come here?"
"This North Sea is not the North Sea. The Beihai you are talking about, it is indeed in the northernmost part, Su Wu was exiled by the Huns to put sheep there for 19 years, eating grass roots and wool, he did not surrender to the Huns, but he was a loyal and righteous person. However, this North Sea is much bigger than that North Sea, and this North Sea is connected to the sea, and it is on the north side of the sea, hence the name. Lou Qingyue listened and found that Xu Manlu was good at learning, and she was happy.
"Then we're not going to the sea now, are we?" Lou Qingyue asked when she saw that there was only a sea in front of her.
"That's right, it's going to the sea!" Xu Manlu smiled mysteriously, and then put her thumb and forefinger in her mouth and whistled in a long tune. After a while, several divine beasts flew from the sky, the green dragon and white tiger, the vermilion bird Xuanwu, the white crane, the unicorn, and a buffalo.
Lou Qingyue wondered, how could there be a buffalo?
"Brother Lou, you must be wondering, how can there be a buffalo in such a place, right?" Xu Manlu is really Bingxue smart, and she can see through Lou Qingyue's mind at a glance.
"There are so many divine beasts, but this buffalo is too ordinary. ”
"Don't underestimate this buffalo, he is a mythical beast, not an ordinary buffalo, he can do everything from heaven to earth. Sometimes it grows wings!" Xu Manlu said, stroking the face of the sacred cow with her hand.
"Then let's take this sacred cow into the sea, okay?" Lou Qingyue said.
"You don't choose so many divine beasts, but you have to choose this buffalo!" Xu Manlu was puzzled.
"For the next experience, let's have a cow swim in the sea today!"
"Okay, then the cow swims in the sea! Brother Lou, go up. As she spoke, Xu Manlu stroked the buffalo a few times, and the buffalo seemed to understand what it meant, so she leaned over.
Lou Qingyue sat in the front, Xu Manlu sat in the back, and the two were close together. When he had sat down, the buffalo got up and walked out into the sea, but when he came into the water, he was on the ground.
"Wow! that's amazing!" Lou Qingyue said in surprise.
"The magic is still to come?" Xu Manlu continued.
I saw that the buffalo was walking in the water as if it was on flat ground, slowly, slowly, slowly, faster, faster, faster, faster and faster, faster and faster, faster and faster, so fast that Lou Qingyue was a little nervous, so, more and more nervous, more and more nervous, suddenly an acceleration...... Lou Qingyue screamed!
With Lou Qingyue's shout, the buffalo actually soared into the sky, growing two wings, the wings were colorful, as beautiful as a peacock's feathers, it flapped its wings a few times, and then did a gliding momentum to circle the sky a few times, followed by a dive, only to hear a loud "dong!", Lou Qingyue and Xu Manlu and the sacred cow disappeared from view.
......
After a while, I only heard the sound of "dong!", the sacred cow rushed out of the sea with Lou Qingyue and Xu Manlu and flew into the sky again, this time the difference was that there was no longer only one ocean in front of him, but over the land, the sacred cow landed in an open space, put down Lou Qingyue and Xu Manlu, Lou Qingyue didn't remember what happened just now, and felt a little dizzy.
"Brother Lou, it's like this for the first time, and I'll slowly get used to it later!" After speaking, Xu Manlu pulled Lou Qingyue into a building that looked like a palace, and the furnishings inside were not comparable to ordinary rich people, in addition to the splendor, there were many rare and exotic treasures that Lou Qingyue had never seen.
Lou Qingyue thought to herself, could this person be the emperor? But if he was the emperor, how could he live in such a strange mountain? Could it really be a fairy! The more Lou Qingyue thought about it, the more strange she felt, and she couldn't wait to see the messenger immediately, but fortunately, she was indeed about to see it soon.
Entering the gate, walking through the courtyard to the atrium, there were many guards in front of the door, all of them were vigorous, energetic, wearing sabers, standing neatly on both sides of the road in two columns.
"There are so many guards, it seems that this messenger is indeed a big man. Lou Qingyue was surprised.
"Of course, he's our commander-in-chief. All the people here are under his control, we all call him the big boss, and he is only under the orders of our god. Xu Manlu said and took Lou Qingyue and continued to walk inside.
Then came the nave, where there were three people. They can walk around at will, not so serious. Judging by what they are wearing, their status should be higher than that of the guards outside. They were all dressed in brocade and jade, but they looked a little strange.
"The three of them look weird?" Lou Qingyue asked.
"It's not like the Central Plains here, it's naturally different, these three are the big bosses and the chief of the guard. Xu Manlu said and continued to walk forward.
"The chief of the guard wants three?" Lou Qingyue asked.
"There are more than three, Brother Lou, there are twenty-nine in total. These three are only one of the twenty-nine chief guards, and each of the twenty-nine chief guards of our big boss also leads twenty-nine guards, all of them are extraordinary, especially these chief guards, their martial arts and immortal methods are all first-class. Xu Manlu said with a hint of envy.
"This big boss is really powerful, he can bring together so many powerful people in the rivers and lakes, and he can also use it for his own use. What an extraordinary person. Lou Qingyue praised.
"You'll see him soon, let's go. Xu Manlu took Lou Qingyue and continued to walk inside, and when they walked to the three captains of the guards, the three of them greeted Xu Manlu with a smile: "Sister Man is here." ”
"Here, you've worked hard. Xu Manlu also greeted them with a smile.
They continued to walk, and Xu Manlu took Lou Qingyue to see all the twenty-nine guard chiefs. These people are dressed strangely, and some even look strange. Lou Qingyue naturally had a lot of questions, and Xu Manlu was also very patient to explain them to her one by one.
At last they reached the last hall, where there was a statue of a god. Lou Qingyue thought it was a bodhisattva, Xu Manlu told him that this was their god. Saying that, Xu Manlu folded his hands and bowed to the statue three times.
Lou Qingyue looked at this statue thoughtfully.
Xu Manlu took Lou Qingyue to the back porch after worshipping, and walked to the leftmost room through the back porch.
......
Lou Qingyue couldn't help but sigh when she thought of this. If time could be repeated, he would rather not see the messenger.
Lou Qingyue got up from the bed and walked to the window, this scene seemed to happen often in dreams. He looked at the bright moon in the sky, and couldn't help but miss his hometown a little, so he blurted out a poem:
The bright moon rises from the peak, and the end of the world is in the sea of clouds.
High-rise buildings on this night, sighing did not answer.
The dark night is still a terrible dark night!
In the dark night, the most afraid of silence, the more likely it is that something terrible will happen!
But at this time, the silence on the splendid land of Cangnan was so terrifying!
Lou Qingyue clutched the log on the edge of the window tightly with both hands, he was pained, tangled, and depressed...... All kinds of tastes came to his heart, and he could only be silent!
At this time, in another room, there was also a person standing in front of the window, equally painful, tangled, and depressed......
There are many terrible things in the world, and one of them is between lovers, and the terrible thing between lovers is not quarrels and fights, but silence.
That's right, the person in the other room is Xu Manlu, her beloved brother Lou usually has nothing to say to her, but today he is so silent, and the silence makes her afraid.
Xu Manlu looked at the bright moon, as if she saw Lou Qingyue's face, that's right! That is Brother Lou's handsome face. However, at this time, Brother Lou's handsome face became full of mist. This-also Xu Manlu's beautiful face was full of mist.
......
So, what happened to keep this bad boy silent?
That day, in the last room, Lou Qingyue looked at the furnishings and decorations of this room was very peculiar, there were countless rare treasures, but she didn't feel congested, the whole room looked magnificent and majestic, and there was no lack of delicacy and delicacy, and the color was just right......
Lou Qingyue saw such an arrangement, Shi Cai felt ashamed, he once thought that he, the second son of the richest family in Jinguan City, never put anything in the world in his eyes, but now in this comparison, he feels that he is simply a beggar!
"It's so strange here, so many rare treasures, I've never seen it. Lou Qingyue couldn't help but sigh.
"Of course, many of the treasures here have been salvaged from the sea, and you still haven't seen them. Xu Manlu said.
So Lou Qingyue looked at it here, looked at it, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt amazing.
"Okay Brother Lou, let's sit down for a while, the big boss is coming soon. Xu Manlu took Lou Qingyue's arm and walked to the seat and pushed him to sit down.
At this moment, I saw a group of girls coming with tea. All of them are beautiful and moving, not only with delicate faces and slender figures, but also dignified and elegant, with light gaits. Shaped like Chang'e, like a jade rabbit. At a glance, you can see that all of them are extraordinary.
When they walked up to Xu Manlu, they smiled and said, "Sister Man, please use tea." ”
Then he put the tea in front of Lou Qingyue and said, "Son, please use tea." ”
The sound is so beautiful that it's irresistible.
Then these maids put a cup of tea on the master's seat, and Lou Qingyue grew old with these beautiful girls towards the master's seat!
"Poof!", Lou Qingyue squirted out the tea in her mouth that she had just drunk!
"You, you, you...... Where did you come from?" Lou Qingyue was extremely surprised, there was obviously no one just now, but in the blink of an eye, there was actually a person here!
No! Lou Qingyue even thought that this was not a human at all, but a ghost! Otherwise, how did he do it, or he would have made demon magic!
"Brother Lou must not be rude, this is our big boss-the messenger of the sound. Xu Manlu said and saluted this person, and also motioned for Lou Qingyue to salute.
Seeing this, Lou Qingyue hurriedly saluted and said: "In Xia Lou Qingyue, I have admired Mr. Da's name for a long time, and I have been thinking hard about not being able to see each other, and today I can finally see Mr. Fang's face, which is really a blessing for three lives." I lost my temper just now, and I was offended a lot, and I was offended. ”
Lou Qingyue is Lou Qingyue, no matter how serious the scene is, she can be naughty and rude.
"Young people don't have to be polite, please take a seat. After the big boss beckoned Lou Qingyue and Xu Manlu to sit down, he looked at Lou Qingyue and said, "Sure enough, it's a talent, not bad!"
Lou Qingyue also looked at the big boss, this person has a childish face and a loud voice, but there is a little peculiar - Dan lips and bright teeth, which is a beautiful woman in itself, but she was born on the face of this old man.
"How many days has Mr. Lou known so far?" the big boss asked.
"It's been half a month. Lou Qingyue and Xu Manlu said at the same time.
"How much do you know about us, the Outer Gods Organization, do you have any ideas?" the Big Boss asked.
"I feel like these are all very powerful people, and I am ashamed of myself. Lou Qingyue said.
"There's even more amazing things to come, but you haven't joined us yet, and some things can't be told to you, but when you pass the assessment and become a full member of our organization, you'll be able to learn more about it. ”
"Please also ask the big boss for more advice. It's just that I don't know how your faction organized all kinds of characters on the rivers and lakes here?"
"Hehe, Lou Gongzi, you have known for half a month, you should know that this is not something that ordinary people can do, nor is it a certain Jianghu faction, a wealthy family can establish a ......" The big boss stopped talking.
"Is it really ......," Lou Qingyue exclaimed.
"Of course, if it weren't for the joint organization of the major kingdoms, dare to ask who else in this world could have such great ability!"
The big boss continued: "Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there have been constant disputes in the world, wars between various vassal states, wars have been raging, lives have been ruined, the country has suffered, and the people have suffered. In the past, there were six countries united by Su and Qin to jointly resist Qin. Today, my god and the kings of all countries have organized the world's capable people here, which is to establish the unity of the world. ”
However, it cannot be made public, so it can only be kept secret. Lou Gongzi, you see that there are all kinds of characters here, some of them were high-ranking officials and nobles in the past, and some of them were grassy people in the past, and the bad guys came here, and after a period of study and baptism, they all became good people, so the ability to transform a person here is very powerful. ”
"Of course, an outstanding talent like Lou Gongzi can be even better! It's just ......" the big boss stopped talking.
"But what?" Lou Qingyue asked.
"Like you've seen people before and you've said to you, there's something to be done. And this investment is beyond the reach of many people. ”
Therefore, it is unacceptable for people who do not have courage and courage. ”
"To pass the test, you first have to give up a few things, such as fame, wealth, and even family. ”
Of course, you can also introduce this family to the organization, pass the assessment, and you can also enjoy the beauty of family harmony, just like Man'er. It's just that all of this needs to be done in secret, which is why the Man'er family suddenly disappeared into Jinguan City three years ago. ”
"Then why did some people disappear and the yamen wanted to post a notice to arrest the murderer?" Lou Qingyue asked.
"Hehe, Lou Gongzi, this is a means of the state, I think I told you before. ”
"I did tell you about it. Lou Qingyue said.
"Because this is not something that everyone can participate in, it involves the common interests of the major vassal states, that is, the great unification. First of all, you have to have a vision and be able to realize that this is a major matter for the country and the people, and secondly, you have to have the courage and dare to participate. So all countries use this method to screen out a large number of people in the first place. ”
"I see!" Lou Qingyue seemed to understand something.
"But how do you need to join?" Lou Qingyue asked.
"To put it simply, you need to hand over all your property to the organization, manage it in an organized manner, and then distribute it. Of course, you don't make friends in vain, here, there are people who need more wealth, so we teach him the way to make money, so that he can gain the ability to create wealth, and then obtain more wealth. Some people need to practice the immortal method, such as Lou Gongzi, then they will teach him the secret of cultivating the immortal method, so that he can grow faster. In short, what you need, we will teach you, and in the end, some people get wealth, some people get immortal law, some people get knowledge, some people become high-ranking officials, even if they become generals, they can do it. ”
"Then what if I join and my family doesn't want to join?" Lou Qingyue asked.
"That can only be their loss. There's no need to force yourself in this situation, but you might have to cut ties with them!"
"Break off the relationship?!" Lou Qingyue exclaimed.
"That's right!" because you are doing things for the common people in the world, and you are achieving your own career, and you are doing it in such a secret place, if they don't have this kind of long-term vision, they don't have this kind of courage, you have to cut off relations with them!" the big boss said Lou Qingyue fell into deep thought, glanced at Xu Manlu, Xu Manlu also glanced at the big boss, just where their eyes met, there was an indescribable feeling, this feeling was very strange.
"I wonder what Mr. Lou thinks?" the big boss asked.
"I haven't figured it out yet, let me go back and think about it. Lou Qingyue felt very embarrassed when he said this, indeed, he vaguely felt that this was a difficult cause and required huge sacrifices, but it was really difficult for him to cut off ties with his family.
"That's it, I think you still need to understand more, we have many people here who can figure it out in three or four days, you have been understanding for half a month, in fact, it is very simple, it just needs courage. Let's talk about this today, how about I try your immortal martial arts?" said the big boss.
"Okay, I want to see if I've seen any progress in the last few days. "Lou Qingyue has been a genius since she was a child, and she has traveled all over the world for many years and learned a lot of skills, especially the Freedom Heart Sutra and Mixed Yuan Taiji Gong that she learned in Emeishan before, which is even superior to martial arts and immortal methods. He took the opportunity to test how much he had grown.
As he spoke, he walked outside the hall, and the big boss first sent a chief guard to compete with Lou Qingyue, although the chief guard was first-class in immortal martial arts, but because of Lou Qingyue's Freedom Heart Sutra and the role of Mixed Yuan Taiji Gong, the skill was profound, and within a quarter of an hour, the chief guard was defeated.
"Okay, good, it's really a rare talent!" the big boss asked.
Then the big boss sent three chief guards to confront Lou Qingyue at the same time, so that it became a pair of three. Lou Qingyue was obviously at a disadvantage, but Lou Qingyue and the big boss both wanted to confirm that Lou Qingyue's immortal martial arts had been practiced to various levels, so they didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
Xu Manlu is most concerned about Lou Qingyue's safety, she is afraid in her heart, afraid that her Lou brother will make a mistake, but this is the meaning of the big boss, she dare not object, and at the same time, he also wants to know how powerful her Lou brother is.
As the two sides set up, the atmosphere became tense, and due to the large number of onlookers, everyone wanted to see how powerful the young and handsome young man in front of them was.
At the beginning, the four-person duel was not very exciting, everyone was trying to find out the bottom of each other, but they didn't expect that more than 100 moves had passed and each other was not divided into winners and losers.
Next, an unprecedented fight will shock the entire "Outer Gods" organization. First of all, one of the guards named Si Wuxian used the housekeeping skill "Innocent Swordsmanship", this sword method is called Innocent, but it is actually very evil, I saw that as soon as the Innocent Immortal Method came out, he suddenly spread his head, and in an instant, his hair rushed up to the sky, and then stabbed Lou Qingyue with lightning speed, and in an instant, it became ten million swords and stabbed Lou Qingyue at the same time.
Lou Qingyue had never seen such a strange swordsmanship, and if she was not careful, she would be stabbed into powder. However, Lou Qingyue said that it was too late and that it was fast, and she actually used the twelve gates of Yama, which required the immortal method to reach the first level before it could be used, and ordinary people could use three doors at most, and those who were powerful could use five or six gates, but Lou Qingyue could use twelve gates. However, there was no need to use the twelve gates here, and he only used one gate to block the attack of this innocent sword technique.
At this moment, another guard named Snake was rampant, and he actually used the technique of the Ten Thousand Snake Venom Sect, which may only be available at the level of the immortal law, which shows that this snake is also a powerful character.
This Ten Thousand Snake Venom Sect is a giant python that uses its body to exert powerful attack power, and at the same time, it can turn into countless small snakes to surround each other and attack at the same time, these snakes are extremely venomous, as long as they are bitten by him, or attacked by his venom, they will definitely die.
This Lou Qingyue is really a genius, and he instantly used the power of the divine turtle. This Divine Turtle is a move that Lou Qingyue and a Divine Turtle have completed together, first of all, they hide in the shell of the Divine Turtle, and the Divine Turtle also retracts all its body into the Turtle Shell, blocking the enemy's attack with the Turtle Shell. Because this Divine Turtle shell is extremely hard and can block any attack, no matter how powerful this Ten Thousand Snake Venom Sect is, it will not be able to break through this Divine Turtle Body.
Just after the attack of the Ten Thousand Snake Venom Sect was slightly weaker, the Divine Turtle suddenly attacked and destroyed the move of the Ten Thousand Snake Venom Sect, and then Lou Qingyue cast the Immortal Method, and the Divine Turtle suddenly turned into a huge ball and knocked down the Snake Ben Rampant with lightning speed.
Seeing this, another guard, the white phosphorus prince, immediately used Amaterasu white phosphorus. This Amaterasu white phosphorus is a white flame through the immortal method, just like white phosphorus burning, as long as it is touched, it will be burned immediately, and this Amaterasu white phosphorus is an inextinguishable flame, that is, as long as you are burned, you can only wait to be burned to death, and no one can save you.
Moreover, the flames were terrifying, and the people watching around immediately avoided it when they saw this.
At this time, even Lou Qingyue's divine turtle couldn't resist the flames of Amaterasu's white phosphorus. At this time of crisis, Lou Qingyue actually resorted to all kinds of amorous feelings.
This style is really powerful, and he can't help but blow all the fire of white phosphorus into the sky, and the people who are blown by his wind are as if they have eaten aphrodisiacs, all of them are red-faced, almost undressed, and want to do things for men and women.
If this trick is learned by people with bad intentions, I don't know how many people will be harmed. Fortunately, this Lou Qingyue is upright and high, and generally never uses this trick, today is life-threatening, so he uses this trick to save his life, but he didn't expect that many people would lose their minds, and they were about to untie their clothes, at this moment, the big boss Buddha sleeves waved, and all the people who were not mentally clear returned to normal.
Lou Qingyue secretly exclaimed in her heart: This big boss is really not an idle person, and such a simple action can solve his amorous feelings.
"Alright, that's all for today, the winner has been decided. Lou Gongzi is really a young genius, I didn't expect your martial arts immortal method to reach such a point! The big boss said, thinking to himself: This kind of talent is really rare, and he must want to leave him behind.
Subsequently, the big boss called Xu Manlu to the room and talked alone for a while, leaving Lou Qingyue to wait outside, I don't know what the big boss said to Xu Manlu, but Lou Qingyue had mixed feelings in her heart.
At this point, Lou Qingyue and Xu Manlu returned to their residence, and until now, Lou Qingyue did not say a word, making this dark night full of a terrible tranquility.
What earth-shattering things will happen after this dark night?
