Chapter 31: The Ninth Floor
The moment I opened my eyes, a dazzling white light suddenly appeared.
Shen Yan subconsciously closed his eyes, and two tears involuntarily flowed from the corners of his eyes.
After adapting to such an environment, she opened her eyes again, and found that she was not in the Emperor's Mausoleum, but lying in an unfamiliar room.
The maid in green clothes opened her mouth and asked, "Miss Shen, you have finally woken up." Is there anything else you don't feel comfortable with?"
"Where is this?" Shen Yan sat up, and the thing she touched in her hand made her whole body stiffen suddenly.
It wasn't a dream.
Holding on to the scroll that was stuffed by Xuanyue in the dark, Shen Yan's thoughts inevitably became chaotic.
On the scroll, there are a few small characters that read: Nirvana Heart Sutra.
["This is my cultivation method, after I go out, Miss Shen Yan can practice according to the above. Remember, be sure to bring my words to Master. ”】
The maid in Tsing Yi didn't poke her head to check the things in Shen Yan's hand, but just stood aside, and responded when she heard the words: "This is Yuyang City, the main altar on the ninth floor." ”
"Ninth floor?" Shen Yan muttered. She still remembered that Cangming said that he would introduce her to the ninth floor. But what happened in the Emperor's Mausoleum made her feel like she was struck by lightning, and the ghost doctor who saved her name, Mr. Cangming, can she really believe it?
Ninth floor, can you believe it?
"By the way, how did I get here?"
"It was the landlord who brought the girl back here. ”
The maid in Tsing Yi is not a person who talks much, but when Shen Yan asks, she will answer truthfully.
Shen Yan originally wanted to ask something else, but someone outside the door walked in with food.
"Miss Shen wants to ask something else, so let's wait until after the meal has been eaten. You've been sleeping for two days and two nights, so you're hungry, right?"
The new maid was wearing a light yellow dress, and her personality seemed to be more cheerful and lively than the maid in Tsing Yi, and after putting down the things she brought, she said to Shen Yan.
Shen Yan touched his stomach, he didn't say that he didn't feel much before, but now he suddenly felt that he was really hungry in his stomach.
She was not polite, and got out of bed and sat down at the table. The maid in the light yellow dress brought rice porridge and some light side dishes suitable for those who had just woken up.
Seeing Shen Yan eating, the maid in Tsing Yi bent down and said goodbye and left. The maid in the light yellow dress stood next to her with a smile and said, "The landlord is still outside and has not returned, Ling Yan knows that Miss Shen should have a lot of doubts in her heart, but these things still have to be asked to the landlord." Later, if the landlord comes back, he should send a message to meet Miss Shen. ”
Shen Yan happened to put a spoonful of rice porridge in his mouth, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but pause for a moment, and then reacted, "Thank you Miss Ling Yan for telling me this." ”
It seems that everything will only be known when you see the Lord of the Ninth Floor.
I don't know where Changsheng and Bai Shangxian are now, and what is going on.
With such worries, Shen Yan was a little absent-minded.
When it was almost dusk, Ling Yan hurriedly arrived at the wing where Shen Yan was, and said to her: "Miss Shen, the landlord has returned, if it is convenient for you to go to the small building with me now." ”
Xiaolou is not really a small building, but the name is called Xiaolou. But in reality, it's just a courtyard. I don't know if the owner doesn't take it to heart, compared to other flowers and trees have people to take care of and prune, the flowers and trees here are not only not a precious product, not to mention, or born with no traces of manpower to take care of pruning. It's just that Kankan has cleared a few important passages, and people can go down to the pavilion in the lake that is not too big or small.
The owner of the ninth floor is a very mysterious existence in the rivers and lakes, no one knows what she looks like, and no one knows whether he is a man or a woman. In the rumors in the rivers and lakes, the image of the lord of the ninth floor in the eyes of everyone is different, sometimes it is a young girl, sometimes it is a white-haired old woman, sometimes it is an ordinary man, sometimes it is a handsome Langjun...... In short, those who have seen the owner of the ninth floor see different people.
There were no guards in the small building, and even Ling Yan, who led the way, only took her outside the small building and stopped.
"The landlord is waiting for you in the Lake Center Pavilion. Miss Shen just needs to go in. ”
Shen Yan nodded, and after entering the gate, he couldn't help but be a little surprised to see the scene in front of him.
The Lake Pavilion is actually very easy to find, because there is only this lake in this small building, and you can see it after turning a corner after entering the door.
Inside the pavilion was a man in a thick fox coat sitting with his back to her, coughing from time to time.
Xu heard the movement behind him, and the man asked, "But Miss Shen has arrived?"
It was a cold woman's voice.
"Yes. Shen Yan paused slightly, then hurriedly replied, hesitated and said, "Shen Yan has seen Lord Su." ”
"You're welcome, just come and sit down. ”
Su Qing turned around, and it was indeed a woman. She looked very young, but her face was sickly pale, and there was no blood on her lips.
She covered her lips and coughed again, and after watching Shen Yan sit down in front of her, she said again: "That day, I heard that Mr. Cangming went to the Unbounded Forest, and I happened to pass by there, so I thought that I might be able to catch Mr. out for a few days." However, instead of waiting for Mr. Cangming to come out of the Unbounded Forest, he first saw Miss Shen appear at the edge of the forest. At that time, you couldn't wake up, and there was some chaos in Yanmen City, so I took you with me and left the boundless forest. ”
"Does Master Su know, can he know what Mr. Cangming's true identity is?" Not daring to tell the truth of the matter at the beginning, Shen Yan asked such a sentence with a bit of temptation.
Su Qing was slightly stunned and chuckled: "The true identity of Mr. is not a ghost doctor?"
"Of course not. When Shen Yan said this, his breathing became slightly short. She pinched the corner of her clothes and hesitated for a long time before saying, "Master Su may not believe it, but what I said next is true." ”
Then, she told everything she had experienced when she entered the Unbounded Forest this time. It's just that in the end, he led to the part of Xuanyue, only saying that he fell into a coma without knowing why, and when he woke up again, he was already on the ninth floor.
After Su Qing heard her words, she didn't say anything for a long time. But after a long silence, he covered his lips and coughed violently.
Shen Yan hurriedly stepped forward and patted her on the back for her: "Master Su, how are you?" Ling Yan should be outside, I'll go and ask her to find a doctor......
"No need. Su Qing waved her hand, and her perennial illness always gave her voice an illusory feeling. "Even Mr. Cangming can't cure my disease, and there should be no way to change someone. ”
Shen Yan suddenly fell silent. Regardless of Cangming's true identity, and what he did to wake up Cangyue, on the other side of the continent, when it comes to medical skills, no one dares to say that the second is the first. Even cultivators don't dare.
"Even if things are really as Miss Shen said....... However, my husband saved my life so that I can still drag my sick body to this day, which is also a great kindness to me. But I don't know what Miss Shen plans to do now?"
Su Qing knew very well that even if she was willing to stay with Shen Yan, with the premise of Cangming's trust, I am afraid that Shen Yan would not be willing to stay on the ninth floor. But in the end, it was Cangming who once passed on the trust to pay for herself, and now she has not received any news that the other party has changed her mind, so she also takes Shen Yan's matter to heart, so there is such a question.
Shen Yan didn't know where he could go or what he would do next. The disaster that she originally thought was caused by a respectful life-saving benefactor, and for Cangming, she had a very complicated love-hate relationship in her heart. But that inexplicable coma made it unclear what happened in the Emperor's Mausoleum. Just thought of what Xuanyue had confessed to her in the dark, and raised her head and asked, "Master Su, do you know Bai Zhi Shangxian of Guguan Mountain?" Bai Zhi and Cangming have been friends for many years, if Su Qing has also known each other for a long time, maybe he will also know Bai Zhi.
But in fact, Su Qing was not familiar with Bai Zhi, she only knew about the existence of this person because of the relationship between Cangming. Listening to Shen Yan's title, it is not difficult to guess that the person named Bai Zhi should be a cultivator of the Immortal Sect, and his strength and status will not be low.
Su Qing thought for a moment and asked, "Miss Shen is planning to find that Bai Zhi Shangxian?"
"Yes. Shen Yan nodded, "I have a very important matter that I need to find Bai Shangxian to explain to him." Can you ask Master Su to help find out where Bai Shangxian is now?"
Su Qing pursed her lips and said, "Since he is a cultivator, I can't guarantee that I will be able to find him." ”
Although she said so, Shen Yan was still relieved, and bowed: "Thank you landlord, it's good that you are willing to help." ”
Xuan Yue only revealed the news that the demon clan planned to make a comeback, but did not say when it was. Cangming is already good if he doesn't offend the Terrans because of Cangyue, and I'm afraid he won't help the Terrans anymore. Among the people he knew and knew, Mo Feiyu died. Since Jiang Zhiyuan, the old owner of Mingjian Villa, has had a deal with Cangming, he is not sure that the other party will definitely believe in him, Huaiyu is the new head of Taixuanzong, but he doesn't know if the other elders and disciples know what he really did, to find someone who can help this matter, the best candidate is Bai Zhi. Xuanyue is an immortal half-soul, and the other party will definitely not ignore this news.
If he couldn't find Bai Zhi, Shen Yan felt that he still needed to go to Taixuan Mountain or Mingjian Villa. In any case, this is a major matter for the entire human race.
With such a decision, Shen Yan planned to go to the first place next, which was Guguan Mountain. After coming out of the Emperor's Tomb, she didn't know what the situation of Bai Zhi and Changsheng was, maybe they wouldn't be in Guguan Mountain now, but as long as there was a glimmer of hope, Shen Yan also decided to go and see first.
Su Qing was worried that she was not a good girl with martial arts skills on the road, so she specially sent Ling Yan to accompany her, and also sent a token on the ninth floor.
"If you need help, you can take this to the altars. "She is really not suitable to go to a cold place herself, otherwise, Su Qing can go with her.
And now, they can only watch Shen Yan and them leave.
