Chapter 28: Moye Tower
The third floor of the Moye Pagoda.
"It's all hurting. The young man in black lowered his head and said lightly.
"Oh, what's going on?" asked another black-clad man with a shawl and a smile on his face.
Both of his arms were ruined by Shang Yuluo, and his meridians were damaged. The boy replied.
The man in white, who had been standing by the window and carrying his hands behind his back, was slightly moved when he heard this, "There is still salvation." There was a dazzling flame streak on his forehead, as if it was about to burst out, and the brilliance was dazzling.
"Mission failed?" asked the man in black.
The young man in black nodded.
"Shang Yu falls... Good... really deserves to be the head of the evil yin faction. The man in black was half-lying on the recliner, muttering as he sipped wine.
The man in white frowned and said, "You haven't removed any of the people on the list." A faint word, no blame, no questioning.
"Nan Wushi, Qiu Shuangxin, Han Lingfeng, Shang Yuluo, so many people are eliminated one by one, how troublesome, wouldn't it be nice to find a suitable opportunity to catch them all!"
The man in white seemed to have great trust in him, and muttered, "I hope so." ”
These three people are the supreme leaders of the Confused Hall.
The man in white is the hall master of the Confused Hall, and his name is Jiang Caiqing. Although he is the master of the hall, he never asks about the affairs of the hall, and all the affairs of the hall are entrusted to the lord Ye Weiyang to manage.
The man in black with long hair and a shawl is the lord of the Confused Hall. He is known as the world's first wise man, chic, evil and deceitful, he and Jiang Caiqing have been in a state of confusion for ten years, and they have a tacit understanding with each other.
The black-clothed young man is the number one killer of the Confused Hall, God Kills Lao Sangxin, that is, the Remnant Sun Sword Master who killed the two elders of the peasant family. She is the head of the killer, and her identity has always been kept secret, so she often disguises herself as a man and assumes the pseudonym Lao Tian when she goes on missions. The piccolo on his body is a musical instrument for playing the ecstasy, which is played especially for Mo Tiandu, who has taken a puppet worm.
Mo Tiandu was the former Remnant Sun Sword Master, and when he was imprisoned in the Confusion Hall, he refused to confide in the Remnant Sun Sword's sword moves. For this reason, Ye Weiyang gave him a puppet worm that could control people's hearts. The people who are controlled by the puppet insects have lost their autonomy, and his swordsmanship is not as good as before. But as long as Raussang's heart plays the ecstasy, the puppet worm can enter the realm of suspended animation, and Mo Tiandu will be able to recover his original heart.
Since Lao Sangxin received the Remnant Sun Sword from Mo Tiandu's hand, the two had a heart-to-heart connection, and when Mo Tiandu and Shang Yu fell into a battle with them, she obviously sensed the strength of the other party. So she blew an ecstasy on this side, and saw the fierce battle situation on that side from Mo Tiandu's heart, so she asked Mo Tiandu to pass the word to Ran Bizhi.
"Only success, not failure!" Jiang Caiqing once again told Lao Sangxin.
"Yes. Raussan bowed his head and said.
"What a handsome boy! Ye Weiyang said suddenly. His eyes were on the staircase.
Lao Sangxin and Jiang Caiqing both looked back. I saw a man and three women stepping upstairs, and the person who Ye Weiyang was staring at was the young man in white standing in the middle.
These four people are Meng Chuanqing, Yan Shangci, Sang Youwei and Wheat.
The person Ye Weiyang is staring at is Meng Chuanqing.
How did Meng Chuanqing and the others come to this Moye Pagoda? This has to start after Shang Yuluo left.
After eating, a few people saw that it was still early, so they discussed going to visit Suzhou City together. As soon as he walked downstairs, he was stopped by the young showman at the gate.
"A few people need to settle the money for the meal just now before they can leave the inn. The young showman squinted at them with a smirk.
"How much?" asked Sang Youyou.
"Five hundred taels. ”
"Five hundred taels?" Sang Jun exclaimed, "Why don't you grab it?" The meals they ordered were only two hundred taels at most, and the other party actually asked for a sky-high price.
"We do legitimate business. The young showman laughed.
Meng Chuanqing said suddenly, "During the Mo Evil Conference, aren't all the guests' meals free?" He remembered that Shang Yuluo had told him that this inn was only open at a sky-high price during normal times.
"That's true. But first-time visitors to the inn do not have this treatment. The young Xiushi said slowly: "Your name is Yang Oath, I have checked the list of guests in the past, and there is no name on you, which means that you are here for the first time." So, you can't enjoy that treatment. ”
Meng Chuanqing was speechless. This is clearly a black martial arts shop, and it is so black and arrogant. He had no choice but to admit it and look at Sang Youwu.
Sang You said worriedly: "Second cousin, don't worry, I can afford no matter how high the price he asks." Then she motioned for Sang Joon to pay.
Sang Jun took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, still gave them to the young Xiushi, and said, "Five hundred taels, don't count them." ”
The young Xiushi directly put the silver ticket into his sleeve and said, "If you want to stay, it's best to prepare enough silver tickets, one hundred taels per person per night." ”
"Mistakenly, accommodation is per room, not per person. Sang Jun said.
The young Xiushi shook his head and said: "This is the rule of the Donghua Inn, and the accommodation fee is calculated according to the number of people, one hundred taels per person." If a pregnant woman comes, she has to pay for the child in her womb, a total of two hundred taels. ”
This time, even Sang Youwu was stunned, and there was still such a business. She can also hold up a piece of the sky in the business world, turning her hands into clouds and covering her hands into rain, which can be described as a leader in this industry. She has dealt with all kinds of businessmen, but she has never seen such a black and honest businessman. This is clearly naked blackmail.
One hundred taels for one person, five hundred taels for five people, and they won't leave until the Mo Evil Conference is over, then they will have to stay for four nights, which adds up to two thousand taels. If you count their food expenses for the past few days, it will cost at least more than 3,000. Although this is a small amount for her, but for those ordinary people, it is an inexhaustible savings that cannot be spent in a lifetime! She finally understood why Long Gongzi's sentence of "free entertainment for three days" can buy many martial arts people, this is a curse!
Meng Chuanqing was stunned, looked at Sang Youwu and said, "Youyou... I think... Let's switch to another one..."
"Don't change!" Sang You said worriedly, "We'll live here." ”
Sang Jun was a little embarrassed: "Miss, let's change it! I don't have so many silver tickets on me." ”
Yan Shangci also persuaded at this time: "Why bother to vomit, as long as you don't leave Suzhou City, it's the same wherever you live." ”
With this persuasion, Sang Youwu became even more worried, "No! I want to live here." ”
Meng Chuanqing wanted to persuade him again, but Sang Youwu suddenly smiled and said: "I am a businessman, and I will never allow myself to do a loss-making business." Eat a trench and grow a wisdom, today I admit it, but before leaving Suzhou City, I must bring back the principal and interest. ”
The young showman looked at her with a suspicious gaze, "Are you a businessman?"
Sang Youwu ignored him and looked at Sang Jun: "How many silver tickets are there?" ”
"I only brought three thousand taels with me when I came out. ”
"There's not much left. Let's go, let's go get the money. ”
"There is no business for us in Suzhou. Sang Jun reminded.
Sang You was stunned, and then remembered that her master did not allow her to do business in Suzhou City. "Then you go out of the city to get it, and you must come back before dark. ”
After Sang Jun went out of the city, Sang Youwu had a relationship with Meng, Yan Shangci, and Mai and the four of them visited Suzhou City.
Meng Chuanqing bought a precious piece of jewelry for each of his three daughters in a jewelry store called "Jubao Zhai". What he gave to Yan Shangci was a pair of crystal clear jade bracelets, and in order to show his love for the house and Wu, he gave wheat a hosta, which moved the wheat.
The gift Sang Youwei received was a yellow ribbon, which Meng Chuanqing tied on her head with her own hands, and then took out a fist-sized blue bead from her arms and gave it to her. Meng Chuanqing called it a lucky pearl, saying that it could bring good luck to Sang Youwei.
Sang Youwu didn't know when Meng Chuanqing bought it, he said that he would let him take good care of it, except for a few people present who did not allow others to know about it, although he felt strange, he agreed. Only Yan Shangci's expression changed slightly when he saw the beads. That is clearly the demon spirit bead that Nan Wushi gave her, and the teaser actually handed over this hot potato to Youyou, isn't he afraid that it will cause you to kill Youyou?
As if he knew what Yan Shangci was thinking, Meng Chuanqing looked at her and said, "Don't worry, I'm measured." With his knowledge of the young sorrow, he knew that she would definitely regard it as the most precious gift of her life, and then sealed it and locked it in a cupboard, and she would not take it out unless she missed herself. Moreover, she is a businessman, so it is not surprising that she has rare treasures around her, so that it will not attract too many people's attention, but it will be more beneficial to hide the Demon Spirit Orb. As long as you find Nan Wushi and return the beads to her, everything will be fine.
After a few people came out of the jewelry store, they went straight to the Moye Tower.
The Moye Pagoda is seven storeys high, symbolizing the seven and the floating slaughter. The first floor of the tower is the registration point for participating in the Mo Evil Conference, the quota is enough, and the registration has ended. Meng Chuanqing and a few people, under the leadership of the tower keeper Bei Muhan, climbed to the second floor to pay homage to the demeanor of the goddess of Mo Evil.
The huge statue of the goddess of Mo Evil is made of white jade. The statue is seven feet high, but because it is molded on a high platform, Meng Chuanqing and a few people can only look up. Seeing this statue at a glance, Meng Chuanqing knew that it was natural for everyone in the rivers and lakes to respect Mo Xiaoxie so much. Mo Xiaoxiao on the statue made everyone feel warm, quiet, light, and elegant, and people couldn't help but want to look at it twice.
Meng Chuanqing originally thought that Mo Xiaoxie was like a fairy like a woman in white on the sea, but although Mo Xiaoxie on the statue was also dressed in white, he was dressed in a strong outfit. Her long hair fluttered slightly, and with the incomparable divine sword on her back, it gave people a heroic feeling.
"This is Mo Xiaoxie! It's so beautiful!" Sang Youwei couldn't help but sigh.
"She must be very lonely, giving people a sense of loss, as if she has gone through vicissitudes. Yan Shangci looked at Mo Xiaoxie's face and said calmly.
Meng Chuanqing looked at Yan Shangci and didn't understand why she said this. Mo Xiaoxie's face was calm and indifferent, where did she see the loss?
Yan Shangci suddenly smiled again: "It may be an illusion, there was a moment just now that made me feel that Mo Xiaoye was smiling at me." ”
This kind of self-comfort made Meng Chuanqing a little puzzled, Shang Ci was able to see through people's hearts, and his words were also deeply rooted in people's hearts. She said that Mo Xiaoxie was a little lost, maybe it was true, could it be that there was any secret hidden in Mo Xiaoxie that people in the rivers and lakes didn't know?
"The first floor is a flower, the second floor is a god statue, I don't know what the third floor will be?" Meng Chuanqing began to be curious again.
Bei Muhan shook his head with a smile and said, "There is nothing on the third floor, it is empty." After saying that, he was called away by other tourists.
Although he heard the scholar say this, Meng Chuanqing always had a strange feeling, looking at the stairs on the third floor, he always felt that something seemed to attract him. Before you know it, step by step, you get closer and climb the stairs. The three girls were puzzled and silently followed him.
There was no surprise on the third floor that brought Meng Chuanqing, just an accident. He didn't expect the third floor to be unusually quiet, with only three people.
A man in white stood in front of the window with his back to the staircase, and a man in black with long hair scattered over his shoulders was half-lying on a chaise longue, holding a jug of wine in his hand. There was a round table beside him, on which there was only a jug of water, three teacups, and a plate of dried fruits. A young man in black sat at the table with his back to the staircase, one arm resting on the table, and a seven-inch long sword lay horizontally next to his arm.
When Meng Chuanqing and the others went upstairs, the man on the recliner turned his head to look at him, and then the other two also looked back at him. Immediately, the man in white turned his head and continued to look out the window: standing there, he just had a panoramic view of the lion dance platform and even the Donghua Inn opposite. The black-clothed young man at the table stood up suddenly, his hand on the hilt of his sword.
Seeing these people, Meng Chuanqing was obviously a little surprised. sensed that since he went upstairs, the eyes of the man in black on the recliner have been staring at him, and he has never left for a moment. He suddenly felt unhappy, his eyelids tightened, and he suddenly looked back at him, and looked at him with a slight warning in his eyes.
This look at each other is like a blend of water and fire, wind and clouds. It seems that they know each other, but they are like a world away. At that moment, everyone stopped breathing, just to feel the brilliance of the moment, and at that moment, the air stopped flowing, just to watch the dazzling sparks that collided with them...
It's a strange feeling that each other feels that the other is a confidant, but they are their biggest rivals in life.
At this moment, the silence was surprising, as if the whole world was watching these two people, forgetting everything.
