Chapter 80: The Gambling Tower
Li Wenmu continued: "While I was inquiring about the news these days, I also found that many people were also inquiring about the news of Gongzi. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info has even been visited by someone who has visited the place where Childe lived before. Even outside our palace, there are many people wandering there these days, believing that they are observing Childe's every move. ”
"I'm afraid that by now, Childe's whereabouts have been recorded by many people and reported to them. ”
Lu Yu looked at Li Wenmu, although he didn't show much expression on his face, his heart had already begun to turn upside down.
Lu Yu didn't expect that after only a few days of passing the assessment and becoming a core disciple, his reputation had already spread so far.
This is not a good thing for Lu Yu, who has almost no foundation in the Nine Xuan Palace.
If he could, Lu Yu really didn't want to believe what Li Wenmu said.
But the experience just now clearly told Lu Yu that what Li Wenmu said was very likely to be true.
"Li Wenmu, in your judgment, do you think there is any suspicion that this matter is deliberately promoted. ”
After thinking for a long time, Lu Yu suddenly asked.
Li Wenmu was stunned for a moment, and then understood what Lu Yu meant.
"I'm afraid Childe's worries are a bit superfluous. Li Wenmu looked at Lu Yu and whispered: "Although the son performed well in the assessment, the previous childe's disguise was perfect, and there were not many flaws. Everyone's attention to Childe is just because of Childe's blockbuster in the assessment and the attitude of Genmu Zhenren. According to my observation, there should be no one who deliberately fuels this matter and pushes Childe to the forefront. ”
"As for the anecdotal claims, most of them are assumptions based on the experience of previous assessments. In the middle of this, no one deliberately played anything. ”
Hearing Li Wenmu say this, Lu Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
What Lu Yu is most afraid of now is that someone is designing himself behind his back, deliberately hyping up, and pushing himself to the forefront.
After all, Lu Yu has too many secrets on his body that cannot be exposed, if someone really targets him so deliberately, then Lu Yu has to be careful.
After observing Lu Yu for a while, Li Wenmu spoke: "Childe, if you are worried that you are too eye-catching, why don't we go home today." When this wave passes in the future, we will be more prepared and then make plans. ”
Li Wenmu's idea is quite pertinent, because at this time, Lu Yu's foundation is too weak, and there are too many things that have not been clarified, and rash action is very likely to lead to unexpected results.
But after thinking about it for a long time, Lu Yu still rejected Li Wenmu's proposal.
"It's too late now. Now that we've arrived here, we've definitely fallen into the eyes of many people along the way. At this time, if we return the same way, it is a manifestation of weakness of heart, which makes people even more suspicious. ”
Lu Yu sighed and said, "If you come, you will be safe." Things have come to this point, and we definitely can't avoid it, so we can only move forward. ”
After listening to Lu Yu's words, Li Wenmu thought for a while, sighed, and finally could only nod.
Another quarter of an hour passed, and the teleportation array to the Shui Xuan Palace finally lit up. Lu Yu and his entourage, under the guidance of the disciples of the palace gate, walked into the teleportation array.
When everyone walked in, the entire teleportation array lit up, and a burst of gray light enveloped the entire teleportation array. It covered the figures of Lu Yu and the others, so that people outside couldn't see them clearly.
Brush!
The light of the teleportation array instantly skyrocketed a thousand times, and from a distance, it looked like a sun.
When the light dissipated, a teleportation array with a radius of more than ten zhang was already empty, and the nearly 100 people who were still there just now had disappeared.
When his vision was completely occupied by white light, Lu Yu felt that the space around him began to fluctuate.
This kind of change Lu Yu was quite familiar with, and when he was in Wanwu Valley before, Lu Yu often used the teleportation array.
Moreover, with Lu Yu's status when he was in Wanwu Valley, the teleportation array he used was much more advanced than this.
In addition to Lu Yu, Tietou, Zhou Qiang, Li Wenmu, and Monkey were all experiencing this kind of experience for the first time, and everyone was very excited, even Li Wenmu, who was quite deep in the city, blinked his eyes and looked back and forth.
After only a few breaths, before the ironheads could recover from their excitement, the white light around them had begun to dissipate, and the surrounding scenery had become clearer.
However, the scenery presented in front of Lu Yu and them at this time was completely different from just now.
"There we are. ”
The straightforward iron head stared at the unfamiliar scenery around him with wide eyes, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really fast." ”
Although Zhou Qiang and the others did not speak, it could be seen from their expressions that Lu Yu was also very surprised in their hearts.
Although they have passed the assessment, they have not yet fully adapted to their new identity. Today, it was the iron heads who once again felt the charm of the power of cultivation.
The distance of nearly 100 miles is fleeting, and this is the real end of the world.
It was the first time for them to have such an experience, and they were a little excited, and it was naturally understandable that Lu Yu was in a good mood.
After they are really familiar with their identity, as their strength and experience grow, they will naturally get used to it.
When the time comes, not to mention hundreds of miles, even thousands of miles, tens of thousands of miles will come in an instant, and there will be no fuss.
Lu Yu carefully observed the surroundings and found that the teleportation array of the Water Xuan Palace and the teleportation array of the Wood Xuan Palace were basically the same. It's all on a high platform.
Around the high platform, there are disciples of the Shuixuan Palace who are responsible for reception and management.
The clothes worn by the disciples of the Nine Xuan Palace are all uniform, but in order to distinguish the different palace gates, the colors of the clothes are different from each other.
Lu Yu was a disciple of Muxuan Palace, and the clothes on his body were turquoise. As for the disciples of the surrounding Water Xuan Palace, their costumes were aqua blue.
After walking out of the teleportation array, Lu Yu asked someone to inquire about the place of the gambling battle in the Water Xuan Palace.
The costumes of Lu Yu and the others clearly showed their identities, and coupled with Lu Yu's inquiry about the place of the gambling battle, the disciple of the Water Xuan Palace immediately knew the intentions of Lu Yu and his party.
His attitude towards Lu Yu and the others immediately became a little awe-inspiring.
Those who dare to go to other palaces to participate in gambling battles are all people who have full confidence in their own strength. None of such people are good at stubble.
Moreover, the clothes worn by Lu Yu were obviously the clothes of the core disciples. Although everyone belongs to different palace gates, no matter where they go, the core disciples can overpower the ordinary disciples.
Since he was already afraid of Lu Yu in his heart, he naturally knew everything about Lu Yu's problems.
He even took the initiative to lead the way for Lu Yu and them.
With the "enthusiastic" help of this disciple of the Water Xuan Palace, Lu Yu and the others successfully found the place where the Water Xuan Palace held a gambling battle.
It was a giant tower with seven stories high.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a giant tower. Because it covers an area of hundreds of zhang.
From afar, it looks like a huge mountain.
It was the first time I'd seen such a huge structure.
The palace assigned to Lu Yu by the sect before, its spaciousness and magnificence had already made Tie Tou breathtaking. But compared to the building in front of them, the palace they lived in was like a small dilapidated house.
"Oh my god, how did this tower get built so big!"
Not only did Tietou sigh like this, but even Lu Yu felt a little strange.
Isn't it just a gambling war, as for it!
Li Wenmu on the side saw the doubts in Lu Yu's heart, and said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, son. There's a reason why this tower was built so big. ”
Lu Yu turned his head to look at Li Wenmu, wanting to hear what he had to say.
Li Wenmu said: "There are tens of thousands of disciples in the entire Nine Xuan Palace, even if it is averaged to each palace gate, there must be thousands of people. Even if only one in ten of these people wanted to participate in the gambling war, there would have to be hundreds of people in each house. If there is no spacious place in each palace, then how can this demand be met and these disciples with excess energy can be accommodated? ”
After giving Lu Yu and the others a basic concept, Li Wenmu continued: "Actually, I said that one-tenth is still light, and there are many more people who really participate in the gambling war than this. ”
"The person who can become an official disciple of the Nine Xuan Palace is either very talented, or he has put in more effort than ordinary people. Most of these people are arrogant people. After cultivating the truth, his strength expanded, and his heart naturally changed, and he became more enthusiastic about fighting bravely and ruthlessly, in order to show his strength. And the gambling war just provides them with the best platform. ”
"The gambling station can not only show your strength, win the attention of countless people, improve your reputation, but also get a windfall, so that your road to cultivation will go more smoothly. Such a double thing naturally makes countless people rush to it. ”
Li Wenmu spoke eloquently, and the faces of the iron-headed people who listened changed several times, and they were surprised again and again.
"This senior brother is very right, it seems that the senior brother is also a delicate person. ”
As soon as Li Wenmu's words were finished, the disciple of the Water Xuan Palace who led the way hurriedly continued, and there was inevitably a little flattery in his tone.
Li Wenmu's identity is just a servant, but because of Lu Yu, a core disciple, this ordinary disciple of Shuixuan Palace also calls Li Wenmu a senior brother.
And his praise also successfully attracted the attention of Lu Yu and several people.
Seeing Lu Yu's gaze towards him, the attitude of this Shuixuan Palace disciple became even more respectful: "Because of the encouragement and generous remuneration of the palace gate, the disciples of all palaces are quite keen on gambling battles. Although the gambling tower of the main palace is huge, it can meet the needs of hundreds of people to gamble in it at the same time. But since the day it was built, it was full every day, and there was an endless stream of people entering and leaving the gambling tower from morning to night. Sometimes, you have to make a bet and even make an appointment in advance. ”
As soon as he heard this, Tietou immediately couldn't help but shout: "No, it's not enough for this tower to be built so big!"
"Don't be surprised, this senior brother, everything I said is true. The Shui Xuan Palace disciple continued, "As far as I know, this gambling battle tower of my Shui Xuan Palace can only rank four or five in the entire Nine Xuan Palace. The largest gambling battle tower in Jiuxuan Palace is the gambling battle tower of Daoxuan Palace, it is said that the tower has nine floors, dozens of zhang high, covering an area of nearly 1,000 zhang, can start thousands of gambling battles at the same time, and meet the needs of two or three thousand people at one time. ”
