El Tienau Calendar January 568, Free City, Shangri-La
One of the famous performing arts venues in Shangri-La, the "Magic City", Tianhe Senxie, where musical performances are the main selling point, is an open-air plaza built with no peeling tree trunks and branches and leaves. When summer comes, with the cool evening breeze, the sultry humidity is blown away, and the peculiar fragrance of pine trees and vines is broadcast everywhere, which always refreshes the audiences who come to the square.
Especially, as long as the weather is good that day, this place is also one of the most suitable places to look up at the stars in Shangri-La. People wear cool linen and come here in groups, staring at the stars shining on top in the night breeze, waiting for today Show in the evening.
Compared with other high-priced places like Fengxianglou, the price of Tianhe Senxie is quite civilian, and it ranges from several weeks to ten weeks every year. The Merchants Association that rules Shangri-La will invite popular entertainers. Or a group, sing for the people. By then, the people can enter the venue on the date of their turn with their own citizen certificate. It is completely free. This is the reward of the Chamber of Commerce to the citizens of Shangri-La.
Of course, after entering the venue, all ice drinks, fans, and flowers will be charged separately, otherwise it would be a shame to the reputation of Shangri-La Chamber of Commerce.
Because Tianhe Senxie gives people a peaceful atmosphere in the forest, and naturally relaxes the body and mind, so when the artists perform high-level performances that can match it, the soul shake is extraordinary, especially In the past fourteen days, the Chamber of Commerce has invited Leng Mengxue, a superstar singer who is half the sky right now, based on its own face and secretly high remuneration.
To give a voice here, to listen to her singing, is not just shaking, it is almost a kind of soul washing. Although there are thousands of listeners in the venue, no one knows what Ms. Mengxue is singing; more than 50% of the listeners lose consciousness when the singing is heard, and they just feel that the whole person is floating in a fairyland. , I don't know what exactly I heard, but there is still a passion in the audience. The applause and applause before and after the concert reverberated throughout Tianhe Senxie.
Shangri-La is the most prosperous city on the Windy Continent. Although it is located inland, due to the convergence of land and water transportation, all races are active in it. Affected by this, the languages and cultures circulating here are also colorful and cold. No one understands the songs Mengxue sings. This is not uncommon. Anyway, as long as it sounds good, this is the high acceptance of Shangri-La people.
At the end of the song, it was late at night, and the cleaning staff began to organize the venue to prepare for the performance tomorrow evening. Many hopeful fans waited outside and refused to leave, hoping to see Miss Leng's face.
Since his debut, Leng Mengxue has always maintained a mysterious image. Apart from singing on stage, he has never appeared anywhere else. Many caring people even waited in the background, but they still rushed out and couldn’t see it. . But when the name of Leng Mengxue became popular every day, and a large number of guards patrolled outside the private lounge, it was even more difficult for outsiders to get close and peek.
In fact, even the guards in charge of patrols didn’t know that the room they were ordered to guard was actually empty. Leng Mengxue didn’t really appreciate the luxurious style that Shangri-La people were accustomed to, so after the performance, They all take off their camouflage and wigs, and go to the corridors or common restrooms to rest.
The media and fans who are staring at the dedicated lounge are naturally unexpected. The one who wears a peaked hat, uses the tip of the hat and bangs to cover the beautiful face, holds a romance novel in his hand, and sits with his legs up. The **** the seat in the corridor is Leng Mengxue who turned many audiences upside down on the stage not long ago.
However, if someone pays special attention, you will find that this girl will appear backstage no matter where Leng Mengxue is performing, and the book she holds is from the original "lovesickness on earth" and "for whom alone Romance novels such as "Yiloutai" have recently become recipe secrets such as "Grab the Husband's Hundred Good Dishes" and "You Can Be a Medicinal Food Fairy".
At the time when the Forty Thieves of Alibaba were destroyed and Lancelow fled in a hurry, Feng'er was around.
Although her martial arts, courage and loyalty have helped a lot in the battle, when eating in the wild, Lancelow smiled bitterly and ate the food she brought. Feng'er with a strong sense of responsibility I feel that I have lost my duty.
Lancelow-sama would be very happy if he could cook a good dish. In addition, if he learns to cook food tonics, when Lancelow-sama is injured in battle, he can replenish his vitality while eating. To this end, to put the dignity of the inheritance of the six sun magical arts of the Dongfang family, she must learn the cooking skills well.
Because she wanted to delve into the pharmacology of food and tonic, she wrote a special letter a few days ago to ask a sister who is also in the free city for cooking recipes. She had heard people say in the Snow Mountain before that she had learned it in Yunmeng Guze. I believe he is a good teacher with a good cooking skill. The elder sister responded very quickly and showed rare kindness, but the handwritten manuscript sent was a bit strange, "Super must kill! A bite of the ultimate cuisine that poisons flying dragons". The effect is unknown, but it seems to be true. It's not like something for people to eat.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
Three rapid piccolo sounds interrupted Feng'er, who was concentrating on the picture of Wugongchangwang. (Suspected wrong or missing) This is a signal of remote communication. Putting away the book, she stepped a few times, she had entered a lounge next to her, and after confirming that there was no one, she used magical tools to open the shielding barrier for confidentiality, and then turned on the water mirror device, followed by Lancelow’s chief staff Qianxi smiled, showing vitality on the water.
"Sister, how are you? How about today's concert? It was still a success! Have you seen Old Man Cao Shou again? Don't be angry but rush to kill him with a sword. People, Eltinol will become difficult to deal with!"
As in the usual communication four days ago, Xiaocao greeted Feng'er, confirmed each other's safety, and handed her the newly compiled song manuscript to her.
Leng Mengxue's singing can have such an effect. In addition to Feng'er's superb singing skills and talented clear sound quality, Xiaocao's lyrics written in ancient magical language are also a major reason. Leaving aside the magical powers, the lyrics meticulously composed by this generation of talented women are quite literary in themselves, but every five sentences, there will be repeated hints such as "listen to me, listen to me", which makes the listeners. Crazy and crazy, unable to extricate himself.
"Miss, how is the situation in Jixia City? You look tired?"
"Tired? Hahaha, how could it be possible, sister, don't forget, I am a ghost, a ghost now! I am a pure astral body, I can neither sleep nor be tired."
Laughing is easy to laugh, but Fenger can still easily see the exhaustion on Xiaocao’s face. This is not too difficult, because in some respects, Fenger even knows Xiaocao better than Lancelow. grass. The astral body does not need to supplement energy through diet and sleep like a creature with a physical body, and the burden is smaller than that of a normal creature, but it does not mean that it will not be tired at all.
Even if you are a master of heaven, you have been busy all night for more than ten days, and the consumption is enough to be enough for the last violent fight. In this regard, the staff under the Lancelow group can be said to be friends with exhaustion every day. Fight for boundless official documents. Gengoro once complained: "I really envy Marshal Zhou, he is busy going in and out, and at least he gets a faint king, what about us? A mountain monkey!"
The little grass who strictly guards his own identity has never made any criticisms or complaints to her husband. Every day, he laughs and lets himself be buried in the pile of documents. In my heart, I somewhat admire my husband’s ability to cause trouble. Let one after another. The troubles are endless.
(It seems to be more miserable than when I was a queen before... Well, but things are always going to be resolved. Okay, let him get up and stay up until midnight...)
As everyone knows, while Prince Lancelow was doing nothing and wandering around, his chief staff, Cang Yuecao, became the busiest person in the new government. Although Feng'er was not in Jixia, she learned about these things from the brothel's intelligence pipeline every day, so she was naturally worried in her heart.
"Miss, are you busy alone? Do you want me to go back and help..."
During the period when Feng'er was still named Dongfang, in addition to martial arts, she also studied cultural affairs and went to study in Bailu Cave.
Although I dare not claim to be both civil and military like Gengoro, if she is by my side, it can somewhat reduce some of the work of the grass.
It’s just that Xiaocao’s answer has always been the same for this request that has been made many times.
The palms are closed, with a guilty smile on his face, Xiao Cao said: "I'm sorry! Sister, please bear with me more?
We now need to establish a good relationship with the brothel, so we can only put you there for diplomacy..."
The big boss behind the brothel alliance is extremely important to Feng'er, and she also considers her face, and has given Lancelow a lot of convenience in transportation and information transmission. If not, the civil war will be carried out. So far, the situation in Jixia City must be much worse than it is now.
There is one more thing that must be hidden. I have mentioned a lot of Reings secrets to Feng'er. If she learns that Big Brother Bai Qi is out of customs, she will definitely come back desperately to protect the Lord like her With his fierce temperament, the consequences of hitting the eldest brother will be terrible...
"...Moreover, sister, you are over there, it's more helpful than staying here." Xiaocao sighed, "It's a bit awkward, we are basically relying on sister you to make money to support us now, no You worked hard outside to make money, we might have starved to death..." For Leng Mengxue’s concert, Brothel League paid attention to the benefits behind it, but didn’t care much about the ticket revenue. It happened to be used as bait to lure back home. Feng'er, who looks like an arrow but desperately needs money, is forced to stay in Shangri-La for one performance after another.
People who don’t know the details will definitely be astonished, even if they make a lot of money every day, Leng Mengxue's life is so simple and almost boring, and it only takes one step to become a miserable life.
"I should have sent a lot of money back! Why is it still not enough? How much do I need? I have an exact goal, and I have more direction to work towards..."
I can hear that Feng'er has been working hard to make enough money and rushed back to Reins. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be meaningless to study the recipes here? In addition, although it is impossible to compare with forces like the Seven Great Sects, in terms of personal income, Leng Mengxue should also be the little rich woman on the Continent of Wind.
However...
"Sorry! Sister, the money you sent is mainly used to pay for the current expenses. Our husband and wife will spend the money. The deduction of other debts does not count. Only the money owed to the Taiyan Institute will be Sixty thousand gold coins..."
"Six...sixty thousand gold coins?!"
It was like being hit by a heavy rock, and with Feng'er's always calm and composure, there was shaking in her voice at this moment.
"This...this is a bit difficult...I will work hard for a while..."
It's not just difficult, even with Leng Mengxue's high salary, sixty thousand gold coins are still as far away as astronomical numbers.
Just as the old saying goes: Behind every successful man, there is an outstanding woman.
While Lancelow was squandering and letting his wife be buried in the document pile, there was also such a woman who was overwhelmed by debt in Shangri-La, striving to move towards a distant goal...
When Lancelow was partying in a bar, Ai Ling and Old Man Agou were dancing on the table, Fenger and Xiaocao were crying, there was a man who was in the boundless hell...
"Nuclear fist, missile potential!"
"Jinjue in the world, protect the body at the top!"
With a roar, Han Te lifted Sui Shi Jin Jue's body protection to the top. With the full support of Zi Dian Jin, the electric light flew around the body like a ten thousand golden snake. The hardness of the protective gold was doubled, and the whole body was plated with a The layer of metal is bright and the momentum is amazing.
"Drink!"
With this lower limit of drumming, Hante blocked the bombardment of the nuclear fist, and instantly turned rigid to soft, opened his palm in a unique area, slowed the enemy's retreat, and revealed the flaws.
"You dwarf! Send me to hell!"
Catch the flaw and use this opportunity to its limit. The Hongyi Dao extended from the palm Jue must once again perform its work. Hante waved the Hongyi guillotine knife, cutting away the white head in front of him.
The enemy showed a painful expression, as if he still wanted to do something to struggle, but the separation of the body and the head, even if the imperial etheric body was urged by the peak power of the small heaven, it would be futile. In the end, only a roar from Bai Qi was heard, and it disappeared.
"Huh! Crazy dead dwarf, this time I finally know how good I am!"
For a long time of fierce fighting and exhausting physical strength, Hante couldn't help showing fatigue when he was complacent and complacent. It's just that this mood didn't last long, almost at the same moment that Bai Qi disappeared, the sound of the wind rushing quickly sounded behind Hante.
(Oops!)
It was too late to respond. Suddenly, Lancelot behind him had already made a move, using the magic dragon king fist of the demon clan's unique knowledge. The demon skill brought up a cloud of black energy. At the weakest moment of the protection Jin Jue, he attacked from behind. Passing through Hante's chest, it sucked and eroded the source of strange energy.
"Livestock, beast! I won't be defeated like this..."
Even if he was unwilling, the weak Hante could only sit and watch his chest gradually dry out, and the flesh and blood essence with life energy was completely absorbed by Lancelow. The enemy who has won a huge victory, a wicked ridicule appeared at the corner of his mouth, followed by a string of heads blasting on his forehead... (Suspected wrong or missing)
After the eyes went dark, the ancient words "GAME OVER! YOU LOSER!" appeared, but the screams of dying and screaming happened only now.
"Wow ah ah ah~~~~"
The source of the pain is not the magic power of the heavens, but an electric shock from super power. For Han Te, who practices purple electric power, the electric shocks are the most insignificant attack on him. However, if these electric shocks are drawn from him and then sent out, if he attacks himself with the purple electric power with all his strength, the effect will be natural and natural. Different...
"He's XX, I quit!"
There was another roar. As a large pile of Primordial Magic Way equipment was electrocuted into scrap, Han Te broke through, and the helmet, eye mask and heavy wrist handle (suspected wrong or missing) were all smashed down by him. On the ground. His tight face was full of anger, as if he was going to find someone angrily to settle accounts, but he stepped forward, his facial features twisted into a ball, and his legs fell on his knees when he weakened.
It’s not surprising that there will be such a situation, because 60% of the electric shocks made by the system just now were concentrated in the groin area, and it used one's own power to attack one's own weakness, even under the violent force. He is a master with celestial power, and he can't bear it. Hante hasn't rushed to the sky, and his painstaking effort is already considered first-class.
The several technicians who came closer, looked at Han Te's embarrassed appearance and couldn't help but laugh secretly, but they still didn't forget to convey the message they just received.
"Master Hante, my eldest master would like to ask you to go see him immediately after you exit the simulator!"
"Just...what's a joke, he said to see me, I don’t do anything I don’t have money to do!" He spoke weakly, his expression distorted into a ball of face, wrinkles as many as a thousand years old Old tree, one can imagine his pain.
"I'm afraid I can't help you. The eldest master said that the toxins in your body can't last too long. If you don't see him, it's very dangerous."
The sore spot was pinched in the hands of others. Although he didn't want to, Hante had to give in and walked to the meeting place angrily. That was in the corner of the daytime camp, a completely enclosed factory building was erected. Nearly a hundred technicians were temporarily called in to assemble the Primordial Magic Way equipment under the command of the convener.
This is also one of the main reasons why there has not been a large-scale attack in the past few days: To cooperate with the battle plan, you need the Taikoo Magic Way weapons, but the inventory in the daytime camp is simply insufficient. To be correct, there is no master-level figure of the ancient magic way in the daytime camp, and they cannot create weapons by themselves. Previously, I cooperated with Ai Ling, but each time the equipment shipped was only enough for one time, after the attack was completed, the rest was just Some parts that no one knows how to use. Although there are technicians, no one knows how to reuse these parts. This is what Airing deliberately keeps.
Until Bai Qi left the customs, the situation finally changed. Unexpectedly, this Bai family is not only a master with a celestial cultivation base, but also has considerable achievements in the Primordial Magic Way. He summoned a team of technicians and asked about the current resource situation, and immediately handed in a few photos that night. Design sketches, order everyone to start assembling, and personally act as conductors.
For the lack of materials, the military needs sufficient funds, so they directly purchased the equipment they obtained from the excavation of the ancient ruins from the Brothel Alliance, and shipped them as quickly as possible. The original lack of manpower, after Bai Qi expressed that he wanted to recruit volunteers, about 40 technicians reported. They were originally members of the Taiyan Institute, and they left because they were dissatisfied with the style of the new prince. Now they have been given their contributions. Opportunity, work hard under the strict supervision of the instructor.
Compared with his arrogant attitude a few days ago, Hante is undoubtedly downright now. When he dragged his tired body due to excessive special training into the center of the factory, he saw dozens of technicians busy assembling. Objects, and the conductor sits on a table.
In Jixia, when people think of Bai Wuji, the Patriarch of the Bai family, he will always think of him wearing white clothes, stepping on clogs, a leisurely smile on the corner of his mouth, and tapping and walking in the academy—and At this moment, the scene that Hante saw will be the most vivid scene in his memory in the future.
Sit up without counting, Bai Qi sits cross-legged on a four-legged wooden table, with a hat on his head, holding a pack of drinks in his left hand, sipping the iced drink inside with a straw, and can’t stop at the same time Various commands are issued, a set of special high-speed keyboards are placed on the knees, and the right hand is flying on the head, entering a lot of data into the system, and then revising the various values that have been deviated.
The square drink that Bai Qi held in his hand was shipped by courier. It is a strange thing called "aluminum foil bag". I am afraid that only Sissi Corca Island is produced in the whole continent. According to his own explanation, it is five colors. While the flag was transporting supplies to the North Gate Tianguan, a copy was airdropped here by the way.
Skinny, he sits on the table like this, he is particularly inconspicuous, Hante can't even believe that he was defeated by such a dead dwarf who is not surprising a few days ago...Uh! Of course, the other party used unsightly methods, and this was the main reason for his defeat.
Hant had fought him on the day that Bai Qi rushed straight into the day camp alone. Although he was at a disadvantage at the beginning, he has gradually levelled, and when he was about to turn the situation around in one go, he was beaten out of his knowledge and fainted.
I remember the vast scenery at that time, as if I was in the boundless sea, and my last consciousness was in the vast sea, and suddenly felt the aura of the seven gods in the world, and the power was more powerful than what I had practiced. Particularly, under extreme shock, the defense fell, and he just knocked the enemy out.
When I woke up again, there were no obvious injuries on his body, except for a dull pain in his chest, and the dead dwarf faintly announced that he had poisoned his body. If he did not obey his orders, he would not get the antidote. He died from his injuries and was miserable.
I am used to seeing strong winds and waves all my life, how can I take this kind of intimidation to my heart, but this toxin is really extraordinary. After trying various methods, I can't find the location and solution of this toxin. Whenever it is shipped The power of the heavens tried to detoxify, and the pain went into the bone marrow in an instant, and blood spurted straight out of the mouth.
Oh! I don’t know what kind of poison it is. I’m so overbearing. In short, since his life is hanging on his hands, it doesn’t matter if he still pays his daily salary last month, it doesn’t matter if he submits to him temporarily, but I am very unwilling. , Because I later found out that the scars on his body were mostly from the nuclear fist, and there were no traces of the seven gods. In other words, this dead dwarf only used some kind of trick or illusion to make himself mistakenly believe that he is right. Only when the seven gods are attacked, will they fail and lose when they are shocked, and give him a chance to take the opportunity to poison.
(Wait! As long as I have a chance, one day I will give you a dead dwarf to pieces!)
Hant, who was full of irritation, gave in for the time being, he had cursed all the vicious words in his heart, and the other party didn't care about his emotions, and after some consideration, he spoke aloud.
"Okay! From today, you will be the first slave, work hard!"
He has lived in seclusion for many years. This person seems to have developed the habit of omitting his real name and directly calling the person's code name. Without knowing it, he gave Hante this harsh appellation. Just like this, when he noticed Hante’s arrival, he was just Speak lightly.
"The action is so slow! Slave A!"
"Don't just give people this bad code name!"
Every time I heard it, I felt angry, Han Te shouted back, and the other party had an expression that didn't put him in his eyes at all, and said coldly: "You are the one who is defeated, not me. Is there anything wrong with being called like this?"
"That's because you used despicable means. If it weren't the case, I would have cut off your dog's head." Thinking of failure, Han Te still felt unwilling.
"But no matter what method I use, if you fail, you have failed. Life and death are only a moment. If you die then, you can only complain to the Dark Blue Devil with these words." Bai Qi said: " You, who came from Alcatraz Island, shouldn’t say such ignorant things, and even though I use illusion, you still can’t find a way to crack it, right? If you and I fight again, are you sure that you will not be affected by illusion?"
Said a few words continuously, like pouring a bucket of cold water, Han Te was silent for it, and his expression became serious.
Bai Qi made no mistake. It was a duel of life and death. He didn't complain about surplus. No matter what the enemy uses, the outcome is the outcome.
In the past, I had realized this so that I could repeatedly defeat and kill opponents stronger than me. But since when did I forget this tense spirit? After the Arambat Mountain's power has been greatly improved, he seems to relax a lot, and when he enters the heaven and has the legendary shocking power, is he dizzy with that incredible satisfaction?
Recalling the battle with Bai Qi a few days ago, his illusion is so real, even if he pushes the Tianxin consciousness to the limit, he still can’t see through his illusion. On the contrary, he is even more confused. If the two fight again , I am not sure that I can crack it, so the result is a repeat of the old thing.
It's really strange. The guy in front of him is obviously only in the middle of martial arts with himself, and he is short. Why is he always under pressure in front of him? Moreover, what he said just now was very strange, "Go and complain to the Deep Blue Devil", this is not a common idiom. Usually people say "Go and complain to the **** of death" and "Go and complain to the Yama king". The name of the dark blue devil is in general. There is a forbidden word in the dialogue. Usually, no one will mention it except for the Magisters, so why...
"What did you mean by that sentence?" It was a big deal, and Hante's expression was so serious that it was almost gloomy.
Onlookers may not know what Hunter is asking, but the person involved is very clear. Glancing at Hante, he said in vain:
"The illusion of appearance can only deceive the eyes and ears. For me who can control everything, these things have no secrets."
Although his expression has not changed, the shock in Hante's heart is not simple to describe. The moment he heard Baiqi's answer clearly, he almost jumped. How could one's own greatest privacy be able to get a glimpse of it in such a simple way? !
He was flustered and disregarded his dignity. He hurriedly changed the subject. Han Te said, "Yes, didn't you say you are going to fight? Why haven't I moved yet? I can't wait to go to the battle. It's a knife!"
White eyes glanced over Han Jiang, seeming to mock his timidity after being revealed the secret, and said: "Not enough, the production line here has to progress, and it will take another two and a half days. Your current level is not enough to be sent to battle. I want you to practice for two more days." After defeating Bai Qi a few days ago and being forced to bow his head and obey orders, Hante was arranged to receive training, using Taikoo Magic Way equipment. Simulate the enemy's image, shut him in the simulation training machine, and continue special training. Using such a simulator for training is a general equipment for the five-color flag soldiers on Alcatraz. However, it is a difficult task to create a simulator suitable for the masters of the sky, especially the current system level. Can't keep up with the efficiency of the Heavenly Master's operation of Tianxin consciousness, Bai Qi therefore personally operated the software, while instructing the mechanics to assemble, while playing against Hante in a virtual mode.
In the decisive battle, after familiarizing himself with the enemy's martial arts skills, Han Te gradually won more and lost less. He chopped off the head of the dead dwarf several times in a row, and was full of confidence because of this, as long as he found the toxins removed from his body. The method, immediately slaughter him to vent his anger. Bai Qi didn't seem to care, and he still urged Hante to conduct special training.
"The ultimate goal you want to defeat is my short-lived brother-in-law. I will help you set the training mode. Try to practice a few more times."
"Correct, the ultimate goal I want to defeat is you dwarf." Hante shrugged, "But I also hate that mountain monkey. It's good to kill him before I defeat you. And... as long as... You and I join forces, are you afraid that you can't kill him?"
"A person with status like me would lose my identity when fighting against that kind of mountain monkey, so I took you as a slave. Just leave it to slaves to deal with monkeys." Bai Qi said. "But you shouldn’t underestimate the enemy, Slave One. The mountain monkey is not so easy to deal with. He still has many potentials that he doesn’t even know. The Japanese sage lurking in his body has a half-life cultivation base, as long as he can fully Absorbing and using, it is enough to be invincible in a small heaven, and you...can't beat him alone."
