Today, the left stream hangs a silver building;
Today, tomorrow, the heroes of the star sea gather together;
Today, a feast is in sight;
…
Today, she has to find a way to rescue a "quasi" disciple of Yashan.
Everything is "today".
Wang said this, was he judging her identity or realizing the purpose of her visit? Jianchou couldn't figure it out.
All she remembered was that sword energy!
When exploring the dungeon of the Night Ship at night, a sword energy leaped up from the darkness and swept across, which was extremely amazing!
The hermit's sword, the king's.
With such a strong power and Kunwu as the support, they appeared in the Silver Building today. God knows what they are going to do and what evil intentions they have...
Maybe it's prejudice, maybe it's concern, or maybe it's just laziness to speak.
Jianchou didn't give a very clear answer in the end, but just smiled faintly: "When, only God knows."
The ambiguous answer can be said to be quite irresponsible.
But Wang didn't mind at all after hearing this, and even showed a hint of expectation. He just bowed slightly to Jianchou and said goodbye: "Then I will wait and see."
"No."
Jian Chou Ke said goodbye politely, returned the greeting, and stood there watching Wang Que leave. He saw Wang Que walking as leisurely as when he came, walking across most of the corridor and disappearing at the other corner.
Tan Tai Xiu, who had been standing nearby without saying anything, naturally watched as well.
It was only at this moment that his two handsome eyebrows slowly knitted together, and when he looked at Jianchou again, his gaze became much more strange: "It's ok that this person has good cultivation, but his temperament is a little too unique..."
Jianchou raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
Tan Tai Xiu smiled and said, "But even a person like this cannot know the fairy's name. It seems that I don't need to bother asking for the time being. Why not wait and see? Maybe I will know it today."
"Master Tantai..." Jianchou suddenly felt helpless and had to explain, "It stands to reason that since you have invited me so kindly, I should tell you my name. But today, I am really inconvenienced. You have been treating me sincerely, and I don't want to just give you a fake name to fool around. Please forgive me."
"Haha, it's okay, it's okay!"
Actually, Tan Tai Xiu did mind it at first, but then he thought about it and his purpose of approaching Jianchou was not that simple. He was attracted by the other person's physique, so they were of the same caliber. What was there to worry about
He waved his hands quickly: "Names and surnames are trivial matters. It is more important to watch the fun together today. Fairy, please come in."
As he spoke, he had already walked directly to the door of the fire room and pushed it gently.
There were already formations drawn on the two doors, which were connected to the teleportation formation in the lobby on the ground floor. They could sense Tan Tai Xiu's breath, so they opened to both sides in the blink of an eye.
A spacious and bright room appeared in front of Jianchou.
An exquisite cloud-ink painting screen separates the inner and outer rooms. In a tall jade vase is inserted a small-leaf star bamboo unique to Tomorrow Star Sea. Walking around the screen, you can see landscape scrolls hanging on the walls on both sides. On the outside is an open window with a few rolls of bamboo curtains hanging.
There was a round table in front of the window, with all kinds of spiritual teas prepared. There was also a Boshan stove with inlaid gold cloud patterns on it, with the incense smoke curling up.
Tan Tai Xiu went inside, walked to the bamboo curtain in front of the window, opened a crack, and took a look outside.
"The layout of Baiyun Tower is special. You see, this room is located on the inner side of the Chinese character '回'. The surrounding area, including the two floors below, is where we receive today's guests. The high platform at the bottom is the 'Across the Shore Platform' for display."
"Does it mean 'watching a fire from the other side of the river'?"
Jianchou looked around and walked up, standing beside Tan Tai Xiu, looking outside through the gap in the bamboo curtain that he had opened.
It was just as he said.
The Silver Building was a hundred feet high, with ninety-nine floors in total. At this moment, the platform across the river, which could be raised and lowered, had already risen to the bottom of the ninety-seventh floor. Surrounded by the surrounding high-rise buildings, it looked like a protruding mountain peak, or like an isolated island that was not connected to the surrounding high-rise buildings.
From the window where Jianchou was standing to the high platform, there was a gap of about ten feet, like a chasm.
"That should be what it means."
After all, this was originally a place for people to fight, and the spectators who did not participate in the fight would naturally just "watch the fire from the other side of the river".
Tan Tai Xiu looked at the platform across the river, and also at the mottled marks of swords and knives on its dark gray surface, as well as some old brown that had faded to the point of being almost invisible.
"This place was once a place of swords, blood, and shadows..."
"Isn't it the same now?" Jianchou looked back at him.
Tan Tai Xiu was startled for a moment, then he burst into laughter and looked back at her, his eyes full of meaning: "I suddenly don't believe it, the fairy just came to see the fun."
Isn't it obvious
Jianchou wanted to say that he didn't think he would believe it, but he didn't say it so bluntly: "Today, many heroes will gather in the Silver Tower. I am just an unknown person. Even if I want to join in the fun, I am afraid I don't have the strength to do so..."
This is the truth.
But Tan Tai Xiu didn't believe it.
"Fairy, what you said is..."
As soon as he turned around, he wanted to say something to Jianchou.
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his sentence, a loud laugh suddenly came from below the window: "Hahaha, life is full of encounters. Isn't this Xianshan Zhenren? You're here too!"
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Mingfeng, long time no see, long time no see!" A voice below also laughed and replied.
Jianchou was stunned for a moment.
She subconsciously looked outside through the small gap in the bamboo curtain, and saw that the bamboo curtains in front of the windows of the elegant guest rooms on the north and south sides of the 98th floor were rolled up. An old Taoist was standing on the south side, and an old man with a long beard was sitting on the right side, and they were bowing to each other.
It was obvious that the two knew each other and had no idea that they would run into each other here.
"Hmph, Xianshan Zhenren, Mingfeng Old Ghost..."
Tan Tai Xiu naturally noticed it as well, but he frowned and his tone was full of contempt.
"These two old fellows are only at the early stage of Nascent Soul cultivation and are about to die. How dare they come to this troubled place... How can they be so arrogant?"
Not good enough
Jianchou's eyelids twitched when he heard this. He inexplicably smelled a sense of impending storm from Tan Tai Xiu's words, as if a bloody storm was right before his eyes.
"Master Tantai, do you mean that they are not qualified to participate in today's 'price-raising'?"
"It's not up to me to decide whether they are qualified or not."
Tan Tai Xiu shook his head, but slowly let go of the long fingers that were holding the bamboo curtain. A hint of thought flashed across his pair of mysterious dark silver eyes.
"We need to see who will be here today."
Jianchou's mind was still very sharp. He immediately understood the mystery from Tan Taixiu's seemingly normal words: "It seems that the price of the Silver Building is due to a big shot coming?"
“… You don’t know yet?” When Tan Tai Xiu heard her say this, his eyes suddenly became a lot weird, but then he laughed out loud, “It’s just as I expected before, the fairy is indeed not familiar with some things in Xinghai.”
this…
Jianchou felt vaguely that he might have made a fool of himself again, but he was not embarrassed at this moment, and was even very calm: "Please give me some advice, Master Tantai."
"I don't deserve your advice, please look at this, fairy."
Tan Tai Xiu only felt that the role he was playing now, which allowed him to talk to Jian Chou and help her, was truly the best role to win the heart of a beauty, so he readily did not keep any suspense.
He flipped his hand casually, and a jade folding paper appeared in his palm.
"This is..." Jianchou was immediately surprised, "Zhilin Sou Rixin?"
"good."
Tan Tai Xiu casually opened it and handed the letter to Jianchou.
"When it comes to news in this world, Zhilin Sou dares to claim to be second, but I'm afraid no one dares to claim to be first. He doesn't know what's going on outside, but at least he knows everything about the Central Region. For a big event like the price increase in the Silver Building today, he will definitely follow. He knows how many invitations the Night Boat has sent out. Whoever comes will definitely be on the list."
"… "
Jianchou was speechless for a moment. He glanced at the letter and immediately noticed that in the lower right corner, where there was originally no text, there appeared the words "The Chronicle of the Price Raised in the Silver Building".
Are you kidding me…
When she left the Tiandi Nilu Inn this morning, she also read "Zhilinsou Rixin" to make sure she didn't miss any useful information.
But who would have thought that the memorial would change at this moment!
Needless to say, it must have been done by Zhilin Sou!
Wasn't that the case with the Zuo Sanqian meeting back then? In order to ensure that those who bought the jade notes could get the news about the one-person stage competition as soon as possible, Zhilin Sou would immediately modify the rankings after learning some information.
What we seek is accuracy and speed!
"I see… "
Jianchou sighed in his heart, and roughly understood the meaning of what Tan Tai Xiu had just said. He just pointed at the words "Feng Yun Lu" with his hand.
"brush!"
At that moment, it was like the floodgates had been opened.
A bright light shone out, and it turned out to be a large number of densely packed names, and the first line was - "Night Boat Invitation List"!
Sweeping the Dust House, Elder Xuyun;
Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Building, Chu Musheng;
Yujian Villa, Master Sujian;
…
There were a long list of names, one after another. Jianchou even saw Chen Yao's name among them, the first female cultivator in the southeast wilderness to become the Grand Sima of the Tongguan Post Station of the Three Demon Paths.
However, some of these names lit up, while others remained dim.
Tan Tai Xiu explained: "The list of people invited to the Night Cruise is here. Those who came uninvited are not yet known. The names that are lit up are those who have come, and the names that are dimmed are those who have not yet arrived. Just look at this and you will know how good today's show will be..."
What is bright is coming;
The gray one has not arrived yet.
Will the play be good
Jianchou looked at the long, mostly lit list, and the already heavy worry in his heart deepened, and he couldn't smile at all.
There are so many people, and each has his or her own background.
Now she is alone, how can she rescue Zuo Liu from such a siege
concern.
Discovered Qu Zhengfeng's name.
gray.
It lights up after a moment.
