Volume 2: Buddha's Hand Saves All Living Things, Subdues Demons and Attains Bodhi Chapter 67: Flying
In the brightly lit and jeweled hall, large chairs had already been placed and people of all kinds took their seats one after another.
This building ship is very peculiar. From the outside, it has five floors, but the inside is empty. Except for the bottom floor which can hold 300 chairs, each floor can also hold 100 chairs. When you lean on the railing and look out, it looks like everyone is sitting around a high platform like the moon surrounded by stars.
And on the top floor, there was only a big chair, an ordinary armchair covered with a soft Western carpet.
Unlike the people that dazzle under the lights, this big chair is mostly hidden in the shadows, with only a vague outline, and is quite inconspicuous.
But it is precisely this big chair that has made countless people look sideways, look up at it, be frightened at it, and even forget about life and death for it.
Until a figure sat on the big chair in full view of everyone, and then a sincere, gentle, and clearer voice was heard: "Thank you for your hard work on the journey!"
Hearing this, those who had already sat down stood up again, their faces filled with excitement.
"Sir, what are you talking about..."
"We have all been looking forward to this day. As long as you give the order, all our brothers will come here even if they have to die."
"That's right, sir, please don't be unfamiliar."
"You are too polite, sir."
"I never submit to anyone in my life except you, sir."
…
"Please take a seat!"
Another sound.
Everyone stopped talking immediately and sat down.
As everyone was staring at them eagerly, a secret door suddenly collapsed on the high platform, and tall and strong men came out one after another. Each of them carried an apricot-yellow bag on his shoulder. Each bag was bulging and stuffed with silver bills.
In addition to the silver bills, there were also strong men carrying large boxes on their shoulders, slowly walking out, a total of fifty people.
There are copper coins, silver, gold, antique calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and jade .
All these people went up to the platform.
It's not just the big shots who get a share of the money. Anyone who has made contributions, worked hard, and suffered can get a piece of the pie and enjoy ten days on the Qinhuai River.
Ye Kai and Ding Linglin came in at some point. Some people had not arrived yet, so there were many empty chairs. He was surprised to find that there was not even a guard here.
But he did not dare to make any big moves. Those martial arts masters who thought they were very powerful did not dare to act rashly, and even regretted coming in. Because with so many martial arts figures and masters of both the black and white worlds here, there was no need for any guards. They were afraid that any slight disturbance would result in death without a burial place.
So these people just dared to sit there quietly.
Ye Kai was still in shock when Ding Linglin suddenly tugged at his clothes and whispered, "Ye Kai, this jerky is so delicious, eat it quickly."
Turning around, I saw Ding Linglin secretly bringing a bag from somewhere, which was filled with all kinds of snacks, desserts, fresh fruit candied fruits, dried meat and preserved fruits. In her hand was a bowl of iced Tremella soup, her cheeks were bulging with food, and her face was intoxicated.
"Wow, I have lived my life in vain. How can there be such delicious food in the world?"
Seeing Ding Linglin's greedy look, Ye Kai's cheek twitched, and he ate a piece as well, and that was all.
Guo Ding looked at the two people who were huddled together next to him, eating voraciously, and changed his seat with a blank expression.
The old man with a bamboo stick and straw sandals also walked away with an expressionless face.
"Um?"
But Guo Ding, who had just sat down, suddenly felt his whole body tense. He never let go of his sword, and at this moment he suddenly felt a bone-chilling chill emanating from not far away, like a basin of cold water poured over his head in the dog days of summer. He was so frightened that he almost drew his sword.
His eyes turned and he saw a man in a gray robe sitting on a big chair not far away.
The man sat sideways, wearing a bamboo hat, and half of his face was very pale.
And there was an unusual bag on the man's back, which was made of a Buddhist robe, wrapped very tightly and covered in blood. One could faintly make out that there seemed to be a box-like object inside.
Just as Guo Ding looked over, the other party seemed to have realized something and put down the teacup, then stood up and pretended to leave.
But as soon as this man stood up, he saw two people and passed by them.
Guo Ding had already recognized them; he had seen these two people in the tavern.
Just as the three of them passed each other, the package on the man in the bamboo hat suddenly fell apart under the lamp, and it seemed as if it was cut open by someone. With a "swish", the blood-colored cassock was torn, and the things inside fell out and fell to the ground with a "bang".
This sound seemed extremely inappropriate at this time and place.
Everyone in the room looked at him coldly, with displeasure and even anger on their faces.
Some people were about to scold, but when they saw clearly what fell out, their expressions became extremely strange. The teacups in someone's hand exploded one after another, and everyone was dazed and moved.
It was a very old wooden box, engraved with Sanskrit, mixed with a few clear and distinct small characters that were enough to move everyone -
【Clavicle Soul-Stirring Heavenly Buddha Scroll】
As soon as the wooden box appeared, the man in the bamboo hat fell out, but the two people who passed by him reacted very quickly, took the wooden box in their arms, and quickly got out of the ship and escaped.
"Humph, you dare to cause trouble on Master Ghost's territory. Master, I will capture these two for you and let you decide their fate."
Just in front and behind, an old man from the martial arts world suddenly stood up and chased after them like an eagle swooping down on a rabbit.
"presumptuous!"
“Bold!”
"Sir, calm down. I'm going too!"
"And me!"
…
One person was leading the way, and then dozens of figures left their seats and followed closely behind him, each one faster and more anxious than the last.
Despite this unexpected change, the voice on the rooftop remained unchanged: "Let them go, the party continues."
Guo Ding frowned and looked back, but the man in the bamboo hat had disappeared without a trace.
Not only these people, many forces in the building ship have asked their disciples to pass the message quickly. For a moment, both sides of the river were filled with rapid shadows, scattered in all directions. Under the seductive night, murderous aura immediately arose, and the wind and clouds moved.
And at the top of the ship, there is a chair, a chair that overlooks the entire Qinhuai River.
The man in the bamboo hat walked out slowly from the shadows, took off his bamboo hat, untied his grey robe, and sat down with a flick of his sleeves.
As brilliant fireworks bloomed in the night sky, Li Muchan's face became clear under the light.
He looked at the world masters from both the black and white worlds who were suddenly moved at the news below his feet. His eyes trembled, and his calm eyes revealed three parts of contempt, three parts of disdain, and four parts of sighs, as if he was a roc high above, soaring in the sky, overlooking the mediocre people who were fighting for fame and fortune on the horns of a snail.
"It's finally my turn." Li Muchan let out a long sigh.
He had to go through this calamity because he was one of these people, trapped in the quagmire of the secular world and the whirlpool of fame and fortune; but now he wanted to try to see if he could climb out and become the one who stirs the whirlpool, so that he would no longer be bullied by anyone and continue to be at the mercy of others, with no control over his life and death.
Shangguan Xiaoxian survived this disaster and finally brought peace to the world and made money reappear.
Shenjian Villa has survived this disaster. Now all it needs is for Xie Xiaofeng to break through the barrier and then it can soar into the sky and fly freely.
Now, it's his turn to rob.
Once you get through it, you will be able to spread your wings and fly high.
This disaster must be extremely dangerous, because not only does he have to face the attack of the "Green Dragon Society", but he also has to fend off the murderous intentions of the "Money Gang", and perhaps even the "Demon Cult" will not let him go.
Li Muchan could already sense the murderous intentions lurking around him; someone was out to get him.
But he never likes to be passive. Good opportunities are not something that can be waited for, but created by one's own hands. Instead of waiting for others to come to him and being on guard all the time, it is better to take the initiative.
Li Muchan no longer minded making the martial arts world boil over. He sat with his arms and legs spread out, drinking tea, crouching slightly, looking down at the charming night scene at his feet like a tiger, squinting and smiling: "Then... come on!"
