Chapter 43: The Drunken Star Tower
Lin Chen was bored lying on the bed, falling into a state of crankiness, feeling that the end of the world was really coming.
The outside of the door was covered with dense dark lines, and even a fly could not avoid all the ears and eyes to fly in, not to mention that Lin Chen was a teenager.
"Saint Elder, are you there?" Lin Chen said anxiously, "I'm afraid I won't be able to help you." β
"Little brat, you must not die," came the voice of the old man, "our lives are one. β
"Since it's on the same boat, I'm in an extremely critical situation now, do you have any secret methods, pass me a few hands, and I'll get out." Lin Chen grinned.
"If you don't laugh when you should laugh, it may be a matter of losing face, and if you laugh when you shouldn't, it will be a matter of losing your life." The Saint Elder said with a serious face, "There is no shortage of masters in these dark lines outside the door, and it is basically a dream for you to break out." β
Lin Chen hadn't heard the Saint Elder's serious tone for a long time, so he had to listen patiently.
"You can't fool these people with your dancing fists and fire poison daggers......" Before the Holy Elder's voice fell, he heard Lin Chen's grinning voice again.
"So I hope that my seniors can pass on a few skills to ensure that the Holy Elder can ...... safely."
"It's really shameless and skinless, invincible in the world, I've served you, if you want to learn advanced exercises, just say it, I won't teach it anyway."
"Don't teach ......," Lin Chen pouted, "Then I'll go out for a walk tonight......"
"Don't, just kidding, by the way, how far have you cultivated now?" The old saint changed his words.
"Hey, you're still a Saint Elder, and you don't even know that I'm already a two-star Saint?" Lin Chen's mouth curled, and he said in a matter-of-fact manner, "We are grasshoppers on the same rope, if you don't do your best to me, don't regret it when the time comes......"
"You've reached the realm of a Holy Venerable?" The Holy Elder said incredulously, "I patronized my own cultivation, and I forgot about you in the past few days. β
When Lin Chen heard this, he wanted to kick him to death.
"Holy Venerable, all things are one, you may survive!" The Saint Elder's voice was tinged with a hint of worry, "I'll teach you the unique Saint Yuan Fighting Technique of the Saint Venerable Realmβborrowing the phase!" β
"Wow, that's a cool name, I hope the fighting skills you taught me are worthy of the name!" Lin Chen smiled, bounced up from the bed with a whoosh, and walked outside the guest room.
"The dark lines outside are dense," Lin Chen said with a look of resentment, "If you want to go out and play now, you may not be able to come back." β
Back in the guest room, a large piece of white paper was pasted on the wall next to the bed, and the eye-catching red color on the white paper blurred Lin Chen's nerves!
"Holy Elder, hurry up and teach me fighting skills, if I don't teach you, I don't have to teach you!" Lin Chen's voice trembled, as if the frozen snow was about to collapse.
On the white paper, there are a few eye-catching big words: Tonight, take your head! Drunk Fan Piao
β¦β¦
"It's a secret art that's about to be lost, and as far as I know, anyone who can use it now can count it with the palm of one hand......"
"It's all fucking burning eyebrows, and so much bullshit!" Lin Chen was about to jump up, "Hurry up and teach me!" β
"The most important thing in learning secret art is to have a correct learning attitude, the heart is like water, and the heart cannot ......be floating."
"Believe it or not, if you say one more thing, I won't learn, whoever loves to learn will learn!" Lin Chen was almost crazy, at such an urgent juncture, the Holy Elder could still open the conversation.
"Okay, count what I owe you in my last life!" The Holy Elder paused, "The Holy Venerable borrows the phase, which is divided into three levels, the Holy Venerable has one star to three stars for the lower one, which can borrow the power of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, the Holy Venerable has four stars to six stars for the middle multiplication, and can borrow the power of plants, trees, flowers and birds, and the Holy Venerable has seven stars to nine stars, and can borrow the power of the sun, moon and stars!" β
When it came to the end, the voice of the Holy Elder trembled a little, "Now I have passed all the mental methods and know-how to your mind, you ponder carefully, ponder a little is a little bit, tonight is the moment of the decisive battle, you cherish it, there is a possibility, tonight is your ......"
Lin Chen is going crazy, there are still 12 hours to go, whether it is a death knell or good news, whether he can see the proud sun tomorrow, it's all in one fell swoop!
The divine sense suddenly sensed a few lines of simple big characters, and Lin Chen silently wrote them down. Immediately after, the Holy Elder let out a sigh: Your divine sense should have sensed it, right?
"Holy Elder, is that all?" Lin Chen sneered, "What kind of fucking secret art is this, it's just a few words." β
"You know a fart," the holy elder saw that Lin Chen had entered the treasure mountain and didn't know the treasure, and his heart was cold, "The true transmission of a word, the false transmission of thousands of books, when I see that you kid has never received the true transmission." β
Lin Chen scratched his head and thought about it, feeling that what the Holy Elder said was very reasonable, so he stopped talking nonsense.
"Whenever the ceiling is rotten, the cheats are as thick as bricks, just throw them away, the road is simple, and the little fart children must remember this sentence in the future!" The saint elder said with a pretentious gesture.
"The lonely yang is not born, the solitary yin is not long, only I borrow the photo, and there is no one in the world......" Lin Chen closed his eyes, placing himself in an imaginary world where no one was in place, and secretly pondered the essence of borrowing the photo.
As if a bolt of lightning struck his forehead, the feeling of epiphany came suddenly, and Lin Chen's whole body was stirred, and he hurriedly captured that fleeting inspiration firmly in his divine consciousness.
For three hours, Lin Chen, who was soaked in sweat, closed his eyes and meditated, imagining for a moment that he had entered a desolate continent, alone with the ancient demon beasts; After a while, he was in the ancient battlefield of thousands of troops and horses, swallowing thousands of miles, holding a sharp blade and fighting with the enemy; For a moment, it was as if you were on the edge of a towering cliff, and there was an abyss at your feet......
For a moment, a look of great pain appeared on his face, as if he had been struck hard; After a while, his expression was distorted, as if he had encountered unbearable difficulties, sometimes laughing, sometimes singing, sometimes painful, sometimes murmuring......
Immediately afterwards, wisps of thoughts that had fought against the life and death of the opponent all came out clearly, from the time he was a child and invited to fight with the people of the clan, to the life-and-death battle with Scar just now, all the details of the battle, every move and every style were clearly reflected in the depths of Lin Chen's mind.
"Hey, Lin Chen, don't think about it anymore!" As soon as the Holy Elder's aura appeared, Lin Chen was excited, as if he had woken up from a dream.
At this moment, Lin Chen's face was very pale, without any blood, as if he had just crawled out of the pile of dead people.
"You're such a madman, it's really ...... to be able to have an epiphany to this level in just a few hours" There was a trace of fear in the voice of the Holy Elder, "You are now lacking in the Qi of the Holy Yuan, if you continue to have an epiphany, I am afraid that I will go mad and fall into the ......"
Lin Chen nodded slightly, suddenly felt that his neck was sticky, got up and looked in the mirror, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.
The face was full of tears and snot mixtures......
"I should be able to fight with a six-star or even a seven-star Venerable now, with my two-star Saint Venerable and my unique borrowing skills, plus the Flame Bible that I have long been familiar with!" Lin Chen's voice was trembling.
Adjusting his breathing slightly, Lin Chen looked at the eye-catching red handwriting on the white paper on the wall in a daze, he always felt that something was wrong.
This strong sense of disobedience made Lin Chenhe uncomfortable, and the image of the obscene little man drunk Fan Piao resurfaced in his mind.
"That's right!" Lin Chen slapped his head vigorously, "I finally saw it!" β
"But how am I supposed to get out?" Lin Chen secretly complained, "There are eyeliner outside, and if you go out rashly, you will definitely be followed." β
"Didn't you win a lot of gold?" The holy elder came out and said, "Don't use it now, wait for the next life?" β
Lin Chen woke up like a dream, and rushed to the place where the shopkeeper settled the accounts, and exchanged the 20,000 gold coins and white banknotes for 2,000 genuine gold coins.
Lin Chen walked away with a big bag of gold coins on his back and grinned, and the shopkeeper stroked his sore arm, looking at the neurotic in front of him helplessly.
Ten minutes later.
"It's raining, golden rain!" The people on the street were boiling, almost all the people participated in the queue to pick up money, and there was a crowd of people for a while, even if it was a festival, there was no such crowd and joy.
The face of the person who grabbed the money was full of smiles, and when he saw the golden rain of money falling down, he tightened his face again, and he didn't care about straightening his waist, and continued to pick up on the ground. Those who didn't pick up the money looked depressed, and the able-bodied people blatantly grabbed the money.
The scene became more and more out of control, Lin Chen became more and more happy, he enjoyed this feeling very much, standing on top of the crowd like a god, life and death, he alone had the final say.
β¦β¦
On the noisy streets, the sound of selling and bargaining was endless, and a middle-aged man with a black cloak and beard, who looked like a wealthy merchant, hurriedly walked on the road.
He lowered his head from time to time, asked the vendors selling melons and fruits about the price, and then glanced back and forth from the corner of his eye, and after confirming that no one was watching, he put down the melons and fruits again and hurriedly walked forward.
After walking for about two or three miles, I came to the center of the city before I stopped in front of a very luxuriously decorated flower building.
"Drunken Star Building", the rich merchant looked up at the plaque of the flower building, moved his footsteps, and walked towards the inside.
"Oh, this uncle, I miss my sister to death......" As soon as the rich merchant walked into the flower building, four or five women with heavy makeup greeted him.
"Oh, rare guests," a slightly old but soft voice came from afar, "we have all kinds of ...... here As long as the uncle likes ......"
The rich businessman estimated that the middle-aged woman who walked in front of him was the old bustard of Hualou, waved his hand to let the women go away, and didn't talk nonsense, reached out and took out 10,000 white bills, and handed them to the old bustard, "I heard that Miss Yueru is good, it's him." β
When the bustard received the white money, his happy expression had not passed, and his eyes suddenly became hesitant.
"If the uncle wants to find other girls to play, it's okay, it's just that this month is like a girl, and it's the top card of our Drunken Star Building, I'm just afraid of ......" The old bustard looked worried, "I'm afraid that the uncle's life will not be guaranteed." β
The rich merchant snorted coldly and didn't say much.
"Uncle doesn't know, Miss Yueru was taken over by the drunken Fan Piao, the third master of the Dark Night Assassin Group," the old bustard said cautiously, "I also think about you, uncle." Drunk Fan Piao, we can't afford to mess with ......"
The rich merchant took out another 30,000 taels of white bills from his pocket, stuffed them into the old bustard's hand, and said in a low voice: "I will only stay with her for ten minutes, and if you insist on passing it out, I can't do anything about it." β
