Chapter 12: The Demon Bottle
Dongfeng Tea Ceremony Club, a quiet and elegant room.
The two sat quietly on a futon, separated by a wooden table.
The private room is not very big, but the layout is very exquisite, quite ancient, screens, calligraphy and paintings and other things are scattered, a four-corner table in the middle, several plates of delicate snacks are placed on the case, two cups full of tea, the heat rises, curling like a fairy mist, which makes people intoxicated.
"Curious tea fragrance!" Bai Yu took a sip of the tea fragrance, and suddenly felt clear and refreshed.
"This is Wendao tea, in the legend, it contains Wendao inspiration, known as just one sip, you can have an epiphany, of course, this is not the real thing, just imitation, but it also has the effect of refreshing the mind. She explained with a smile, "Wendao tea is rare in the world, and there are not necessarily a few people in the entire online literature circle who can afford to drink it, and I can't afford to invite you for the real thing." ”
"Hehe! Even so, I'm naked!"
Bai Yu smiled, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and for a moment only felt a clear stream down his throat, and the hairs on his whole body stood up, fluttering: "It's really good tea!"
"If you like it, I can give you a little, the real thing can't afford to drink, and there is still a little imitation. As he spoke, his jade hand flashed, and a delicate tea pot appeared, signaling Bai Yu to accept it.
Bai Yu was not polite, accepted the tea, and then said: "By the way, what will I call you in the future, I can't always call you editor, right?"
"Shangguan Yun'er! You can call me Shangguan!" she said generously: "I came to Wuyi City this time, specifically responsible for signing a silver contract with you, negotiating new books, and rewarding your champion to you on behalf of Dianniang Chinese Network and the Westward Journey Family." ”
"Champion reward?" Bai Yu's eyes lit up, he had been looking forward to this championship reward for a long time.
Shangguan Yun'er had a smile on her face, she also knew that Bai Yu was just an ordinary person before this, and she was very much looking forward to this championship reward, and she didn't talk nonsense, her hand flashed, and four items appeared on the coffee table, a bank card, a futon, a humanoid puppet, and a boxy box.
She pointed to the bank card and said, "There is 100,000 yuan in this card, which is the champion bonus of this Liaozhai essay." ”
"One hundred thousand yuan!" Bai Yu hurriedly picked up the bank card, his eyes lit up, whether it was before or now, the money in his pocket has never exceeded five figures, and one hundred thousand yuan is undoubtedly a huge amount of money for him.
Shangguan Yun'er looked at Bai Yu with a look of being a fan of wealth and was quite amused, and she continued: "In addition to the bonus, I will also give you the rest of the rewards on behalf of the website and the Liaozhai family. ”
"Other rewards?" Bai Yu looked at the other three items on the coffee table.
"100,000 yuan is just the basic reward, and better things are yet to come. Shangguan Yun'er pointed to the futon on the coffee table and said: "After the author writes a novel or fights, his popularity will be consumed, this futon is called Yunwen Futon, as long as you sit on it, you can recover your popularity faster and improve your efficiency." ”
After speaking, he pointed to another humanoid puppet and said: "This one is a puppet, there are three spirit runes planted in the puppet, as long as the spirit rune is stimulated by popularity, the puppet can help you fight and resist the enemy, a spirit rune is equivalent to the strength of a one-star author, if the three spirit runes are activated at the same time, the power obtained by this puppet is even comparable to that of a two-star author, but the number of uses of each spirit rune is limited, only three times." ”
Bai Yu's face was shining, they were all good things!
Finally, Shangguan Yun'er pointed to the boxy box and said solemnly: "You created the treasure book "A Chinese Ghost Story", and you were guided by the Liao Zhai family's Zhen clan god book "Liao Zhai Zhi Wei", which strengthened the power of the god book, so the Liao Zhai family also rewarded you. ”
"My "A Chinese Ghost Story" can increase the power of the divine book "Strange Tales from Liaozhai"?" Bai Yu was surprised.
"Of course!" Shangguan Yun'er said: "In the online literature world, the power of those divine books and holy books is not immutable, they themselves can also be cultivated, once there are works that can resonate with their avenues, they can be guided by them and enhance their own power." ”
"Wasn't I taken advantage of, then?" Bai Yu muttered.
Shangguan Yun'er couldn't cry or laugh when she heard this.
"Do you still think of being taken advantage of? Do you know how many people want to be taken advantage of by the Divine Book when they squeeze their heads, but the Divine Book ignores them? Your "A Chinese Ghost Story" is guided by the divine book "Strange Tales from Liao Zhai", which means that "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "Strange Tales from Liao Zhai" have a slight connection, and to a certain extent, they can borrow an extremely small part of the power of "Strange Tales from Liao Zhai", which is what many people dream of?" She glanced at Bai Yu and said: " Moreover, whenever such a work comes out, the family of the Divine Book will reward the author of the work with a treasure, be content. ”
Bai Yu smiled, and immediately felt a lot better, he looked at the last thing, the boxy box: "So the thing in this is the reward of the Liao Zhai family for me?"
"That's right!" Shangguan Yun'er smiled, and then said quite solemnly: "Among these things, this thing is the most precious, and it is a heavy treasure. ”
Bai Yu put away his smile and looked at the box.
Among the several items on the coffee table, only this one is in the box, and it is really the most special.
"This thing is the most wonderful, it is a fierce treasure, and it contains the spirit of killing. Shangguan Yun'er said cautiously opening the box and reminded: "Be careful!"
Click!
The moment the box was opened, Bai Yu only felt a killing aura coming from his face, enveloping him, like a sharp sword cutting down, suffocating.
Fortunately, this killing aura only lasted for a while, and soon disappeared and returned to calm.
Bai Yu looked at it and was stunned.
This heavy treasure that exudes a killing aura turned out to be a broken page.
At first glance, this page is not as large as an ordinary book, dry and yellow, with a crack in the middle, and even traces of insect moth, and the handwriting on it is blurred, and some handwriting such as fox demons and ghosts can be faintly seen.
"This page is called 'Demon Refining Bottle', which is one of the manuscripts of "Fox into the Bottle" in the second volume of the divine book "Strange Tales of Liao Zhai", and it has always been one of the treasures treasured by the Liao Zhai family, and it is easy not to leak out. Shangguan Yun'er said.
"Demon Refining Bottle?" Bai Yu was a little strange when he heard the name, but it didn't prevent him from feeling the extraordinaryness of this thing.
What's more, this thing is also one of the manuscripts of the divine book "Strange Tales from Liaozhai".
"Holding this thing, inspired by popularity, it can be like a canopy of heaven covering the sky, and it can be contained between Sumeru, and when facing the enemy, it can even be used to kill the words in it, and conjure up a bottle-shaped furnace to refine monsters, so it is called 'refining demon bottle'. Shangguan Yun'er explained: "However, this thing is not an original draft of Pu Songling, the first generation head of the Liaozhai family, but a handwritten manuscript by the descendants of the Liaozhai family. ”
Bai Yu took a deep breath.
There is no doubt that this is a great treasure, even if it is just a subscript written by the descendants of the Liaozhai family.
Close the box and pick up the four things.
But suddenly! Bai Yu scratched his head, he suddenly found that the bank card was okay, but he had nowhere to put other things!
Shangguan Yun'er smiled, took out a sachet-like thing, handed it to Bai Yu and said: "This is a treasure bag, made of special materials, containing space, which can be used to place some sundries and belongings, as long as the imperial envoy is popular, it can be opened, and it will be branded with his own mark in the future, as long as the gap between the realms is not too big, others will not be able to open it." ”
Bai Yu was stunned for a moment! This treasure bag is a space treasure in the online literature circle, similar to the storage ring in the novel, although it has no other power, but it is actually extremely precious, and there is no such thing in the reward, he looked at Shangguan Yun'er.
"Needless to say, thank you, you just have to write a book now, and when the writer level is promoted to a one-star author, the consciousness realm has evolved the law of space, and this storage thing is almost the same as if it is not. ”
"Thank you!" Bai Yu was not pretentious, took the treasure bag, the imperial envoy was angry, his consciousness probed into the treasure bag, imprinted his spiritual imprint, and then flashed brightly, and put the three items on the coffee table into the treasure bag, and then tied it around his waist.
Shangguan Yun'er saw that Bai Yu had put away the treasure bag, and said, "Okay! Since you have also received the reward of "A Chinese Ghost Story", let's talk about your new book!"
"Okay!" Bai Yu didn't talk nonsense, and sorted out his thoughts a little before saying: "About this new book of mine, I named it "Romance of the Dragon and Snake". ”
"The Romance of the Dragon and Snake?"
"Yes! "Romance of the Dragon and Snake", according to the classification, should be attributed to martial arts. Bai Yu nodded.
