Chapter 993 The projection takes shape
There are about a dozen tables in the tea shop, which are already full of guests. Even in the aisles, there are tea guests standing, holding cups in their hands, waiting eagerly, just like a temple fair, which is very lively.
For the middle- and lower-class people who live a monotonous and dull life, I heard that reading newspapers has become one of the rare pleasures. At least it is more cost-effective than drinking alcohol. It is affordable to listen to it every three to five days, and you can also get the support of neighbors after returning home. He warmly welcomed them and told them anecdotes about the colorful martial arts world, as well as Vietnam and other places that were far away but seemed very close to him and others, adding a touch of color to his pale life.
This was what Qian Ping'an saw when he stepped into the tea shop, but he seemed to be in a trance, his thoughts drifting to the sky, and he didn't care at all about what he saw in front of him.
"I heard from my boss before that the four major rice merchants in the capital are joining forces to fight against the import of grain from outside the capital. They have hired assassins, hired martial arts masters, and colluded with court officials to restore the price of rice to normal levels. It seems that more than a dozen lives have been lost. , many grain merchants died..."
"The day before yesterday, the 'Wulin Express' published a letter from Tan Hai, the president of the rice trade of the five southern provinces, saying that he would join hands with the 'South China Sea Divine Sword' Lin Zutong to come to Beijing to pay homage to the left prime minister..."
"In the past few decades, there has been no great master in the world. The South China Sea Divine Sword and the Heartbreak Divine Palm are one of the closest ones. According to the words of the 'Wulin Express', this dispute over Mi Xing may not be resolved..."
"The people from the Cao Gang have been very angry recently. They would start fighting after saying a few words. Chen Xiucai in the alley said that sooner or later they would rebel and beg for food..."
Qian Ping'an's mind was constantly spinning with the news he had recently learned. The reason why he was in a trance was because he had an urge to try it. A lot of things seemed to be happening in the world. "Wulin Express" always described it as a turbulent era, which gave people A wonderful spring-like feeling.
The boss's rice shop is getting more and more difficult. It seems that I can't work as a waiter for long. Should I continue to work as a waiter in another shop and slowly become a steward, looking up my whole life and only see the sky surrounded by "four walls"? Go out for a while and seize this "era of great change".
If I go out to make a living, I have never learned martial arts and have very little capital, what should I do?
Well, goods from the north and south of the capital are getting cheaper, but it is said that these things are still not available in the small town in my hometown. That's right. Teleportation arrays currently only exist in large cities. How about half buying and half buying goods from the south?
Snapped!
The sound of the wake-up wood shook all directions. Qian Ping'an couldn't help but shuddered and returned to reality from his thoughts.
Looking up, he saw the storyteller picking up the "Wulin Express".
"As the old saying goes, a long sword has no mercy but a man has feelings. Even the Jingshen Sword is not exempt from the common saying. Today I will tell you about his romantic life." The storyteller twirled his beard and shook his head.
Everyone's spirits were immediately lifted. For them, romantic stories were much more attractive than anecdotes about rivers and lakes.
"The first time, I fell into an illusion and fell in love with the Lake Fairy, and tried to make the clouds, rain and yin and yang become swords."
…
"The second time, we passed through Washington D.C. late at night and the sword was bright, and we climbed up to the embroidery building and ran together under the moonlight."
…
"The third time, the oiran was kind enough to help Xiao Meng, and the red candle turned over the quilt without tears."
…
This issue of "Wulin Express" published three stories, which made Qian Ping'an and others restless. They hated that it ended too early and there was no follow-up. They also hated that the writing was too graceful but the key points were mentioned in one stroke, which made their blood rush and they felt helpless at the same time. It's like venting in every place, like entering a brothel and ordering an oiran, taking off your pants only to find that it's already dawn, and you've just woken up from a dream.
But can such an article be published in a newspaper? Can it reach the heights of elegance?
Everyone was a little confused for a moment. The current world is quite conservative, with only erotic pictures and the like, and the pornographic songs sung in brothels are famous for their explicitness. It is rare to see such elaborate and fascinating plots.
After leaving the tea shop, the story echoed in Qian Pingan's mind for a long time. He tossed and turned at night and could not sleep. He kept thinking about the development of the subsequent story, sketching the images of the fairies and ladies in it. He wished that the sky would light up soon and the "Wulin Express" would be serialized. Update soon.
Unprecedented fresh excitement made people's enthusiasm burst out. Coupled with Shang Jiuming's strong persistence, all the objections of "the world is declining and people's hearts are not the same as before" were suppressed.
"In the twelfth chapter, after visiting the embassy, Xiao Meng meets the devil for the first time, and his white gauze and pink body fade away to act as a demon."
…
"In the fourteenth chapter, both arrows hit the Forbidden Palace, and the hero tried to shock the gods and save the beauty."
…
The critical moment was gone again... Qian Pingan was anxious for a while, wishing he could catch the author and write seventy or eighty chapters. At the same time, based on his trust in "Wulin Express", he was extremely envious of "Shocking Sword" Xiao Meng, whose sword skills were outstanding. Wandering among beauties with their own styles, winning hearts one after another, you are simply a winner in life.
It's a pity that I'm not the Jingshen Sword... Qian Pingan sighed regretfully and walked out of the tea shop.
At this time, a person came out of the dark corner next to him, quietly came over, and said in a low voice: "Do you want to renew the book?"
"What renewal?" Qian Ping'an asked blankly.
"The continuation of the Jingshen Sword and the Demon Queen's Thirty-Six Forms of Su Nu, no abridgements, only five copper coins!" The man looked around and answered carefully.
Qian Pingan's heart moved and he immediately said: "Yes!"
While he was talking, he had already taken out five copper coins and bought a thin booklet.
"Remember, other continuations are adulterated. Only Layman Xiao Gao's is full of literary talent and rich in color." The man accepted the copper plate, left a few words and hurried away, looking for the next guest.
Qian Ping'an was so excited that he clutched the booklet tightly and returned home as if he were stepping on clouds. Then he locked the door, lit a candle, and opened the pages of the book.
"Fuck, I can't read, why did I buy it?" Qian Ping'an let out a roar of grief and anger.
This is the tragedy of illiteracy...
…………
In a certain restaurant.
"I don't believe that Jing Shen Jian is this kind of person." Gao Fushen held the hilt of the sword tightly, as if he was going to the "Wulin Express" headquarters to discuss the rights and wrongs.
His companion laughed and said: "How can a peerless master like Jingshenjian not be entangled with women? It's just a romantic affair, why bother?"
For men in this era, any romantic affair does not affect their image, but can actually prove their charm.
Gao Fuchen frowned and said: "The Jingshen Sword should be a swordsman who is devoted to the sword and only has the sword in his eyes!"
"No, think about it. When he escorted Lu Guan to Beijing, he was accompanied by a stunning beauty. His cooperation with the Demon Queen was also known to everyone. When he reappeared in the world for the second time, he was the first to find the Demon Queen and said If there is no adultery, I don't believe it." His companions increasingly felt that the secret history of romance was true.
"But, but..." Gao Fushen couldn't refute for a moment.
His companion shook his head and said with a smile: "Only a great hero can show his true nature. A true celebrity can have a romantic relationship. The Jingshen Sword can break into pieces without losing its vitality. Romantic affairs are just trivial details."
"That's true..." Gao Fuchen sighed. Although it made sense, the image of the Jingshen Sword in his mind seemed to be a bit broken.
…………
In each branch of the Demon Sect, there are evil demons who are grieving.
They were not lamenting that the Demon Queen had an affair with the Jingshen Sword. After all, it had been more than a hundred years and it was not a big deal. They were only angry that the secret history described the various branches of the Demon Sect as extremely incompetent.
But without the right to speak, there is no way to even protest!
Should he support puppets and build a new newspaper, or send dead soldiers to attack the "Wulin Express"?
…………
In a secret room somewhere, an ordinary person picked up the letter inside:
"Assassinate Shang Jiuming of 'Wulin Express'."
This ordinary person tore the letter into pieces and swallowed it, with a long sword shining in blue in his hand.
He is a world-famous assassin. He has no name passed down to the world, and he did not take the initiative to leave a name. He is just called the "faceless killer" because he killed so many people.
But he felt that he was a sword, a fish-gut sword, usually hidden in the belly of the fish and hidden in the map, covering up the light. When the sword was drawn out, the light would illuminate the sky so brightly that even he would be moved by it.
Shang Jiu Ming is already dead!
…………
The affair is harmless, and the image of Jingshenjian is slowly changing.
In the past few months, Meng Qi used the Excalibur puppet to carefully understand the feedback and the increase and decrease in subtle connections.
"It's still a little short..." He suddenly understood which direction to adjust!
He is the choice used by Demon Buddha Ananda to get out of trouble. Before getting rid of the suppression, he will definitely try his best to improve his strength. In other words, while he is still under his control, his "legendary image" will be close to "him" "I" will allow him to obtain legendary characteristics again in the future, improve his strength, and make it easier to break the seal through internal and external cooperation!
…………
Qian Pingan stepped into the tea shop again, full of energy, with sharp eyes, and seemed to have found his direction.
Yes, I came to say goodbye to the teahouse, and I will go to sea with King Xiaoyao!
With the teleportation array, when exploring overseas, you no longer have to worry about the goods being swallowed up by wind and waves. You only need to set up an array locally and send the harvest back. Therefore, many experts have set their sights overseas and organized fleets. King Xiaoyao is here After cooperating with Wulin Express, it is announced to the world:
The Age of Discovery is coming!
This made my heart surge, and a new life seemed to appear before my eyes.
"Today's headline: Zen Master Zhending reveals the true identity of the Jingshenjian." The storyteller's voice seemed a little solemn.
"What's your true identity?" Qian Ping'an was stunned.
"Zhan Master Zhending is a conscientious researcher of martial arts allusions. He believes that the Jingshen Sword is actually the reincarnation of the Demon Lord with a secret method! Otherwise, it cannot explain why his martial arts are like a gift from heaven. In just a few years, he can break the void and go away. Otherwise, It is not enough to explain why the Demon Queen favored him so much and fell in love at first sight. More importantly, the Demon Lord suddenly left when he was at his peak, became a monk, and left such a motto. This is too abnormal, and there must be demons. Strange, if he secretly prepares to be reincarnated, it would be very clear!" The storyteller took a breath, this argument was really shocking.
But Demon Lord’s essence was indeed absorbed by the Jingshen Sword to a large extent!
In a certain restaurant, Gao Fushen stood up suddenly and said coldly:
"I'm going to kill this Zen Master Zhending and let him know that he can eat whatever he wants but can't talk nonsense."
…………
A few months later, Zen Master Zhending found no such person.
But this article, which caused many people to fall into controversy, was highly recognized by all branches of the Demon Sect. The image of the Jingshen Sword was split, and the split part made Meng Qi feel that the projection features were unusually obvious, and the subtle connection was virtual but Already taking shape!
