Chapter 31: The Tower of the Stars
The two asked all the way to the camel market, which was actually a trading market, full of people, and merchants from all walks of life were shouting and buying here.
"It's so big here, how do you find her?" Yingli asked sideways when she saw the crowd blocking the road.
Chen Yin looked at it for a while and shook his head: "I don't know, the green bamboo girl only said that they would meet here." ”
"Brother Chen!" suddenly came from the crowd.
Chen Yin looked around, and saw a woman in purple embroidered clothes squeezing out of the crowd, grabbed Chen Yin's hand and looked up and down: "You're not injured...... right?"
"I'm fine, have they chased after you?"
"No," Chanyu saw the woman next to Chen Yin, "This is your senior sister?"
"Ah, yes, this is my senior sister Qi Yingli, this is Tian Chanyu girl from Xuanyue Gate," Chen Yin noticed something unusual, "By the way, why are you alone, Miss Luzhu?"
"After I entered the city with her, I met a wave of officers and soldiers who took her away, and I didn't know her well, so I asked to wait for you here. ”
Qi Yingli coughed a few times and said to Chen Yin: "You found the person, now the senior sister wants to drink." ”
"I know there's a restaurant up ahead, let's go there. Tian Chanyu proposed.
"It just so happens that I have something I want to ask," Chen Yin agreed, "How about Senior Sister?"
Yingli shrugged: "If you have wine, you can do it." ”
Chen Yin told Chanyu how to get rid of Ling Yin in the restaurant, and Tian Chanyu looked worried: "Uncle Shi added a force lock with you, but it was broken?"
"After he entered the cave, he untied it for me," Chen Yin made up, he was afraid that Chanyu would continue to ask, so he immediately asked, "Let me ask you about it, is there anyone named Xie Gu and Quan Dong in Xuanyue?"
"Senior Uncle Xie Gu and Senior Brother Quan Dong?" Chanyu looked puzzled, "Why do you ask them?"
"I just heard Ling Yin talk about them," Chen Yin said, "Are they powerful?"
Qi Yingli was drinking wine and listening attentively.
Chanyu nodded: "Uncle Xie Gu is the master of the second order, and Quan Dong is the senior brother of the second order, both of them have the ability of Bai Lone, but the two of them have bad tempers." ”
"Where are the two of them?" Chen Yin regretted a little as soon as he asked, blaming himself for asking too bluntly.
Sure enough, Chan Yuhu stared at him suspiciously, and even Yingli paused.
At this time, two officers and soldiers sat down next to them and ordered some food and drink: "It will be a great pleasure to execute the thief woman in two hours." ”
Chanyu glanced sideways, turned around and whispered, "They caught the green bamboo girl." ”
"Why?" Chen Yin breathed a sigh of relief, and the topic was shifted.
"I don't know, as soon as I entered the city, the green bamboo girl was stopped, and even someone took the camel away. ”
"I'll ask," Qi Yingli suddenly smiled and got up and sat down at the table of officers and soldiers with wine, "What did this thief woman do?"
"Little girl curious about this?" one of the officers and soldiers smiled and took the wine handed by Yingli and drank it all, "It's nothing, it's just burning, killing, plundering, and doing all kinds of evil." ”
"How come?" Chen Yin and Chanyu blurted out almost at the same time.
"What, how could it be?" the two officers and soldiers looked at the two of them angrily.
"We mean, how could a woman do such a thing. Chanyu immediately explained.
"Hmph," the officer and soldier said almost through their noses, "you must be outsiders, and you must be poisonous at night, have you ever heard of it?"
"Nope. ”
"Then you have to go and see this woman, while her head is still off," Xiao Er served the wine and food ordered by the two of them, "At the guillotine in the ironsmith, but it will only be an hour or two." ”
"Are you going?" asked Yingli after taking a sip of wine.
Chen Yin looked at Chanyu and nodded.
There was a large open space outside the ironcraft yard, and the executioner was standing on a three-meter-high platform with a knife in his hand, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a long time, and there were many people standing below, Chen Yin and they could only stand far away because they came late.
A prisoner in the shape of a woman wearing a hood on her head was pressed onto the stage by two officers and soldiers who were tall and tall, and stood on the stage without moving, and then several people who looked like officials took their seats in turn on the seats not far away.
"Is it the Green Bamboo Girl?" Chen Yin couldn't see it clearly.
"It doesn't look like it. Chanyu carefully looked at the female prisoner on the stage.
"Take off the prisoner's hood!" the prison officer let out a long howl, and the crowd in the audience was in a commotion.
As soon as the hood was removed, Chanyu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not green bamboo." ”
The prisoner is a woman in her thirties with unkempt hair, her face is full of injuries, it should be caused by torture, she closed her eyes slightly, the sudden light made her a little uncomfortable, the audience was deafening applause, the woman was not moved, she glanced at the people in the official seat expressionlessly, her eyes fell on the only middle-aged man dressed in his own government at the scene, and then smiled toothily: "Dog thief, if you kill me today, my man will destroy your whole clan tomorrow!"
"Green Bamboo Girl!" Chanyu pulled Chen Yin and called.
Chen Yin looked in the direction pointed by Chanyu, and a woman was standing listlessly next to the middle-aged man, dressed in pink and luxurious splendor, and at first glance she was a young lady from a dignitary's family.
"The identity of the prisoner is correct," the voice fell, the executioner's knife was out of her body, and two officers and soldiers pressed her head on a wooden stake, "Immediately behead!"
The woman looked up to the sky and laughed, the audience exclaimed, the head of the female prisoner rolled down the bucket in response, Chanyu also covered her eyes with her hands with a low groan, and buried her head in Chen Yin's arms, Chen Yin was at a loss for a while, but she enjoyed it extremely much, Yingli was a little angry when she saw this: "What's so afraid of this, it's not to cut off your head." ”
After Yingli said this, Chanyu raised her head with red cheeks and pursed her lips.
"At least now it's good to know that Miss Green Bamboo is fine," Chen Yin said in order to hide his embarrassment, "Senior sister, where are you living these days?"
"It's like it's called Shaxing Tower," Yingli interjected between the two, "but you can't go, junior brother, it's full of women." ”
I heard the green bamboo girl say that one of the two most famous places to practice power in the country of Ma Si is the Star Covering Tower. Chanyu said.
"Oh?" Ying Li raised her eyebrows, "I didn't pay attention, but I did see a lot of women in it to cultivate, what, you want to go in?"
"Ah," Tian Chanyu nodded, "That's where I came to learn from my teacher." ”
Yingli stared at Chanyu for a while, and then said, "Your power is in the realm of ten thousand sects, and your use has reached ten thousand sects. ”
"Well, I'm trying to find a way to improve the realm of derivation. Tian Chanyu told the truth.
"I've never heard of this method, but I can take you to the Star Tower, you can ask yourself. ”
"Thank you, Sister Yingli. Chanyu raised her eyebrows and smiled.
The Shade Star Tower is easy to find, he is the tallest building in the city, there are two streets around the corner of the ironsmith factory, you can see it from afar, a square attic with red pillars and gold tiles, there is a large courtyard in front of the building, four high walls, the main entrance is hung with a plaque of 'Shade Star Tower', two stone lions sit firmly at the door, and two pairs of women with swords stand in front of the lions.
"Miss Yingli. One of the women with a sword recognized Yingli and stepped forward to salute.
"Is your landlord here?"
"In the study," the woman with the sword noticed Chen Yin and Chanyu, "these two..."
"My junior brother, my junior brother's friend," Qi Yingli was about to enter the door, when she suddenly remembered something and turned around and asked, "My master is in the study?"
"The head of the moon didn't come..."
"Oh. Yingli nodded reassuringly and led Chanyu and Chen Yin into the door.
After the maid reported, Yingli and the three of them entered the study, Chishui was barefoot, was putting his legs on the desk, holding a bamboo slip in his hand and looking at it, the robe was stretched on the ground, Bai Huahua's thighs and the scabbard pinned to it were exposed like this, Chishui heard people entering the house, put down the bamboo slips and looked at it, and did not shy away when he saw Chen Yin coming in, which made Chen Yin at a loss.
"Little sister, what's the matter with me?" Chi Shui didn't look at it anymore, and picked up the bamboo slip again.
"It's not me, it's my junior brother who has a friend who wants to learn from a teacher. ”
"Male or female?"
"Female. Chanyu plucked up her courage and said.
Chi Shui showed half of his face from behind the bamboo slip and looked at the person who spoke: "Well, the appearance and figure are good, what do you want to learn?"
"I want to push the limits of derivation. ”
Chi Shui completely put down the bamboo slip in his hand this time, and laughed: "Who told you that this can teach people to improve their limits?"
"I just want to see if it's possible..."Chanyu was a little disappointed.
"At least it's not possible for me here," Chi Shui walked out from behind the table, "There is a cocoon in the tiger's mouth, are you from Xuanyuemen?"
"Ahh
Chi Shui also stretched out his hand and handed it to her, and the tiger's mouth also had a clear cocoon.
"You're also from Xuanyue Sect?"
"No," Chi Shui turned his head to look at Chen Yin, approached and touched Chen Yin's face with his fingertips, Chen Yin suddenly felt a warm jade delicate aura across his cheeks, and his heart was warm, "The person who makes weapons, the tiger's mouth is often cocooned, only Qingyue and Xuanyue make weapons in the main sect, and Xuanyue's disciples make swords, so you don't need to bring a sword when you leave the mountain, and Qingyue's disciples don't need to take a sword when you leave the mountain, and Qingyue's disciples don't know how to derive strength, and when you leave the mountain, you must not leave your sword, I don't seem to see you have a sword." ”
"That's what the seniors said. Chanyu sighed.
"If a woman is not self-reliant, she will be reduced to fish and meat, and I like a woman who is willing to seek progress," Chi Shui said, "This thing is just a tool, dispensable, if you are willing to stay, I can teach you the set of every weapon of the Qingfeng faction." ”
"Seniors are willing to accept me?" Tian Chanyu couldn't believe it.
"Everyone knows that Shaxinglou only accepts women with outstanding looks and femininity, you are satisfied, why don't I accept it?" Chi Shui sat back at the table and said to Yingli, "Little sister, are you going to abandon your head of the wind and join me?"
"Don't. ”
Tian Chanyu thought seriously for a moment, gritted her teeth and clenched her fists and said: "Thanks to my predecessors, I can afford it, but I still want to find a way to break through the force first." ”
"Come and tell me if you find it," Chi Shui smiled, picked up the bamboo slip, and shook his little finger, "Three little ghosts, if you have nothing else to do, just step down." ”
As soon as Yingli and Chanyu stepped out of the door, the door was immediately closed tightly, and Chen Yin turned his head with a puzzled expression: "Senior?"
"Follow me. Chi Shui's expression was serious, and without waiting for Chen Yin to answer, he turned around and took down the calligraphy and painting, and entered the back room.
"I'm fine..."Chen Yin reported safety to the two people outside the door and followed into the back room.
"What are you doing inside!" Ying Li listened to the room, and there was no sound anymore.
