Volume 2 The Wind Rises Chapter 44 Picking the Star Tower
In the quiet courtyard, the sunlight shines through the leaves, the dappled shadows fall on the ground, and a fallen leaf falls from the branches.
Wow, the sword slashed, the cold light of the blade flowed, and the leaves were split in two.
Liu Chen returned the sword into the sheath and caught the two halves of the leaves with his hands. "It seems that he has almost recovered, and his cultivation has also gone further, reaching the late stage of the Transformation Spirit Realm, and sure enough, fighting is the fastest way to improve his cultivation." Liu Chen thought in his heart.
With a bang, the courtyard door was opened. Liu Chen didn't have to guess, he knew that except for Liu Chan'er, no one could open the door to make such a big move.
Liu Chan'er jumped in and saw Liu Chen in the courtyard, holding the Biquan sword in his hand.
"Brother, your injuries are finally healed, I'm dying of boredom these days."
"Okay, I know you've been taking care of me for the past few days, and it's been hard. Why don't we go shopping in the west of the city today, there are a lot of new things", Liu Chen said helplessly.
"Really, that's what you said, not what I forced."
"Uh-huh, that's what I said, let's go".
Three days have passed since the family martial arts competition. In the past three days, Liu Chen has been lying in bed almost all the time, and he has not recovered until today.
Now Liu Chen has become famous and famous. On the way, I met many children of the Liu family, and they all took the initiative to say hello, so that Liu Chen and Cicada stopped and stopped, tired enough, and then went out of the gate.
In a courtyard of the Liu family, Liu Gu sat on a stone bench and looked up at the sky. The scene he had encountered in the past few days came to mind, his embarrassed appearance when he was defeated by Liu Chen, and he was angrily reprimanded by his father: "I have paid so much, you have lost two games in a row, and you have lost the quota of Tianlan Secret Realm, you have made me lose face in the family, you are in this courtyard to fend for yourself", the distant figure did not hesitate at all.
At this time, Xiao Si pushed open the courtyard door, walked in with a lunch box in his hand.
"Young master, should you ...... It's time to eat", Xiao Si put the lunch box on the stone table.
Thinking of this, Liu Gu clenched his fists fiercely. Hearing someone speak, Liu Gu turned his head to look, and his vicious eyes made Xiao Si take a few steps back in fear.
"You, tell me everything that has happened in the past few days", Liu Gu is eager to know to analyze his next situation.
"Less...... Master, in the past few days, everyone has been discussing the fact that the fourth young master won the first place in the competition, and everyone said that the fourth young master is the most outstanding genius among the younger generation of the Liu family. Everyone also said ......", Xiao Si said energetically.
Suddenly, "Shut up and don't talk about that wild seed anymore." Liugu was furious and slammed the stone table. "Phew, apart from these things, is there anything about my father?"
Xiao Si was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and hurriedly admitted his mistake. Hearing Liu Gu's question, Xiao Si hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, I heard that the eldest lord is ready to let the second son come back ......."
"Is it impossible, this is impossible, this is impossible", Liu Gu kept saying.
Then he grabbed Xiao Si's clothes, "Is it Liu Tong, is it not", Liu Gu's eyes were red, and his face was distorted.
"Yes", Xiao Si replied with a trembling voice.
"Haha, it's all over, it's over", is my father so ruthless, I can't wait to let Liu Tong take my place.
No, I'm not reconciled. It's all the result of that wild seed, and I must take revenge.
"Liu Chen, you won't be complacent for too long", Liu Gu muttered as he looked at the clouds in the distance.
On the other side, Liu Chen and Cicada have come to the west of the city.
The style of the pavilion courtyard here can be described as unique, influenced by the ink pavilion mechanism, the houses here are very high, four or five floors, five or six floors abound. In addition, it is equipped with an active lift, so you can go upstairs without taking the stairs.
Liu Chen knows the Ink Pavilion technique, which is unparalleled in the world. Forged weapons, incredibly powerful. For example, when the Nine Babies were killed, the demon arrows used were created by Moge.
But the example of using it in life, Liu Chen is still the first time to see it.
"I didn't expect that the trick can not only create powerful weapons, but also bring convenience to people", Liu Chen sighed.
"Brother, you'll be surprised by this, when you see the Star Picking Tower for a while, you will know what the creation of heaven and earth is", Liu Chan'er, pulling Liu Chan, walked forward.
Star Picking Tower, as the name suggests, describes standing on the top of the building, hands can pick up stars, its height is enough to make people feel amazing.
After turning a street, the view suddenly opens up. The huge star-picking tower stands here. Since it's early afternoon, there aren't many people, so if it's in the evening, it's bustling. When the time comes, the star building, the whole body shines, shines brightly, will attract many people to watch here.
Liu Chen looked up at the sky, "It's not a loss, it's a star picking building, it's worthy of the name, and I don't know how tall it is."
It's not the first time that Liu Chan'er has come, and she deliberately showcased: "Hehe, I know, Wen Jun told me that the Star Picking Tower has nine floors and is 100 zhang high, which is the tallest building in the south of the Xuan Dynasty."
The Star Picking Tower, in appearance, is nothing more than a whole made of wood, which is not surprising. But if you have the opportunity to go inside, you can discover the mystery.
The whole star-picking building is made of a huge nanmu as the top column, and the junction of the nine-story pavilion is not the whole, and it is connected by installing the slide rail, so the whole star-picking building can be rotated.
In order to build the Star Tower, the Ink Pavilion can be said to have used the mechanism to the extreme. In order to drive such a huge behemoth, the mages of the Ink Pavilion carved each layer with the Star Spirit Array, and not only that, they placed huge steel gears in the underground river to gain great power.
When the Star Picking Tower is in operation, the power can be described as earth-shattering. The arrow that shot the Nine Babies was the huge energy provided by the Star Picking Tower, so that it could cross such a long distance and kill the Nine Infants.
But all this is unknown to outsiders, only the leaders of the major forces in the city know. If you want to use him, you must have the consent of the Pavilion Lord and the City Lord.
Some people are curious why Mo Ge can build such a sharp weapon in Tianlan City under the rule of the Xuan Dynasty. This has to start with the first emperor of the Xuan Dynasty, because the matter is very long, I will not go into detail for the first time, and it will be slowly revealed later.
In short, the ink pavilion is equivalent to the affairs arranged by the emperor of the Xuan Dynasty in various places.
In the west of the city, in addition to the Star Picking Tower, which is the most worth seeing, there are all kinds of weapons, pills, cheats, and a few other columns, as long as they can be linked to practice, there are basically all of them here.
If you have a good eye and good luck, you may be able to find rare treasures in the big waves.
