I Use Idle Books To Become Saint
Chapter 682 Traveling Again?
"Young Master, Young Master, wake up." A sound of urging came to Chen Luo's ears. Chen Luo felt someone pushing him, and slowly opened his eyes.
"Young Master, you are awake. Hurry up, this servant will help Young Master change his clothes." The charming little maid said quickly, "Otherwise it will be too late."
Chen Luo turned his head, glanced at the little maid, and then carefully looked around, and woke up suddenly.
Where is this?
A bedroom I've never seen before, and a maid I've never seen before.
Chen Luo shook his head, didn't he discuss with his uncle about the ghostly place in Fengdu Palace before?
In my impression, my uncle just told me that the secret place to be opened is called River of Forgetfulness, how could I be lying here in the blink of an eye?
Could it be that he crossed over again?
Chen Luo sensed his own body, completely unaware of the existence of the mortal energy, so he turned on his soul... Damn it, he couldn't sense the existence of the sea of souls.
It can be said that Chen Luo is now an ordinary mortal.
Chen Luo stabilized his mind, looked at the maid again, and thought, "What's the hurry!"
"The sky is big and the earth is big, what else is bigger than this Young Master sleeping?"
"I didn't wake up, let me sleep for a while."
Saying that Chen Luo was about to lie down again, the servant girl panicked and quickly reached out to hold Chen Luo's arm, and said in a crying voice, "My dear Young Master, get up quickly."
"Today is the first day for the old man to return home. You are the eldest grandson, so you should go and say hello."
"If you miss the time, the old lady loves you, but the housekeeper's wife will definitely punish the servant. I beg you, the servant."
The little maid said tears were about to flow down her cheeks, Chen Luo probably had an outline in her heart when she heard that.
No matter what happened to me, my current identity should be the Young Master of a family of officials, with a grandfather who just retired and returned home.
"Okay." Chen Luo sat up again, got off the bed, let the little maid change his clothes, and said casually, "I haven't finished reading "Journey to the West" last night, did you put away that book? "
Hearing this, the little maid paused her movements, and said with a puzzled face, "Young Master, what book is Journey to the West?"
"This servant has never read or heard of this book."
Chen Luo frowned slightly, "What about "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? Or "The Romance of the West Chamber"?"
The little maid finally looked worried, and said, "What kind of books are those? Young Master, is there something wrong with you? I'll report it to the housekeeper's wife."
"Oh, it's okay." Chen Luo waved his hand, "Maybe I was dreaming too deeply, and these are the titles of the books that appeared in my dream. Alright, hurry up, I'll go to greet grandpa."
As soon as Chen Luo said this, his heart skipped a beat.
If it is related to the previous world, even if I have traveled to someone else's body, at least everyone knows these books.
New world?
No, we still need to collect more information.
Soon, the little maid bound Chen Luo to wash and dress up, and led Chen Luo to greet her.
To be honest, if this was the time when Chen Luo just crossed over, he would have been in a hurry, but Chen Luo is not what it used to be, both his mood and situation have been improved by more than one level. Therefore, even in the face of such a strange situation, he is still calm.
Following the servant girl to a courtyard deep in the mansion, the servant girl stopped at the door, while Chen Luo walked in directly.
Walking into the small courtyard, Chen Luo saw an old man sitting on a soft bed, drinking gruel. The old man looked very old, but his eyes were very bright. He looked at Chen Luo and laughed, "Here we are..."
Chen Luo hurriedly saluted, "Grandson pays respects to grandpa."
The old man waved his hand casually, and said, "Get up. Come and have some breakfast together." Then he said to the butler next to him, "Go and get some hot porridge for Young Master, and some pasta, young man ,good appetite."
The butler led away, and the old man looked at Chen Luo again, and said, "Come and sit, let's have some food together."
"Well, my grandson will eat with grandpa." Chen Luo nodded. He had already made some words out of the maid's mouth. There is still a sense of strangeness. And his father, who is closest to him in the family, also received the favor of this grandfather, and went to Beijing to be an official half a month ago.
So chatting, as long as you pay attention to yourself, you won't show any flaws.
On the contrary, Chen Luo hoped to get more information from the other party. After all, the other party retired from the second rank secretary, so he must have a better understanding of the nature of this world.
...
Half an hour later, Chen Luo hurried into the study of the mansion.
Chatting with the old man can't be said to be fruitless, but it is far from the result Chen Luo hoped for.
According to the old man, this world is more like an orthodox historical world, without any Transcendent power. The imperial court has been in power for two hundred years, and there are hidden dangers of nomads in the north, but at present it is only a disease of scabies.
"No way, did I really time-travel again?" Chen Luo flipped through the classics in the study, and the more he flipped through the books, the more panicked he became, unlike the time-traveling before, he had nothing to worry about after his grandmother passed away, and he just wore it. But now, in that idle book world, I have respected elders, love my senior brother, admire my followers, and... sixth senior sister!
I still have unfinished business and unfulfilled responsibilities!
How can I just wear it?
Don't panic, don't panic.
The first time I crossed, it was caused by falling into a cliff while driving.
But this time, I was just chatting with my uncle before!
Could it be that something happened in the middle, but I can't remember it?
Did you forget something?
Thinking of this, Chen Luo's mind trembled, he picked up a pen, and wrote two words on the paper: River of Forgetfulness!
In myths and legends, after death, people have to go through the gate of hell, take Yellow Springs Road, between Yellow Springs Road and Hades, the River of Forgetfulness is the boundary. The water of the River of Forgetfulness is blood-yellow, full of lonely ghosts who cannot be reincarnated, full of insects and snakes, and a fishy wind blowing on the face. There is a Bridge of Helplessness on the River of Forgetfulness, and there is a ghost beside the Bridge of Helplessness, named Granny Meng, who cooks Granny Meng’s Soup day and night, which can make people forget the past.
"Could it be related to the mystery of the River of Forgetfulness?" Chen Luo's eyes flashed a glint of hope.
Chen Luo thought for a while, stood up, and decided to go out for a walk to see if he had any new discoveries!
...
Because he was going out to find clues, Chen Luo left the mansion alone without any entourage and wandered the streets. According to the local chronicles I read in the study before, I know that the town I am in is called Goose City, which is a small town. The most commendable thing in this goose city is the soup blindly called "Eight Fragrance Soup". It is said that there is a cook who is best at this soup and is appointed as the imperial cook.
Not far away, Chen Luo saw a tea shop with a signboard of "Baxiangtang". With the idea of collecting as much information as possible, Chen Luo walked in and ordered a Baxiangtang.
After a while, the soup was brought up, and after taking a sip, it was really fragrant. Chen Luo was just about to drink the soup when suddenly a figure appeared from there and bumped into Chen Luo from behind. Chen Luo's hand shook and the soup in the bowl spilled all over the floor.
"Hey, I hit it, I hit it..." The man who bumped into Chen Luo was about forty or fifty years old, with a beard and messy hair, and a musty smell that hadn't been bathed in months. He pulled Chen Luo's arm, yelling, "I'm hit, I'm hit!"
"Go! Go! Go!" Immediately, the waiter rushed up and pulled the crazy-looking man away from Chen Luo, and then the shopkeeper went up to make amends, "Guest officer, I'm really sorry, I'm so sorry. Let that madman run in."
"I'll make you a new bowl of Baxiang soup."
"Crazy?" Chen Luo asked casually as he looked at the figure being pulled out.
"Isn't it..." the shopkeeper said while clearing the table, "His name is Fan Jin, and he turned out to be a scholar. He took the exam all his life, but he failed."
"It went crazy after that!"
"Oh, poor people too!"
Chen Luo was shocked when he heard the familiar name, and quickly dropped a bit of broken silver, and chased him out.
...
When Chen Luo ran to the door, he saw Fan Jin walking into an alley, and Chen Luo quickly chased after him.
But when Chen Luo ran to the alley, Fan Jin was nowhere to be seen, but the sight in front of him left Chen Luo stunned.
I saw paper money flying all over the sky in the alley, and the sound of mourning and weeping came from my ears.
A funeral procession.
In front of the team, I saw a young man holding a tablet, but the words on it were somewhat blurred.
Chen Luo quickly stepped aside, allowing the funeral procession to walk past him. It's just that when the coffin was carried by Setsuna, Chen Luo suddenly felt a sense of oppression in his heart.
It wasn't until the funeral procession walked out of the alley and towards the city gate that Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the alley from another direction, and walked onto the avenue.
Just after walking a few steps on the avenue, a baby’s cries suddenly came from a private house next to it, and then a middle-aged man ran out of the house, his face full of excitement, and he shouted, “I have a son, I have a son! son..."
As he said that, the middle-aged man took out a large handful of copper coins from his pocket and threw them towards the road. This is called giving birth to happy money. The person who has won the copper coin goes up and says auspicious words to the middle-aged man, and they both win the prize.
Suddenly the street became chaotic, a group of people were busy grabbing the happy money, and they crowded in front of the middle-aged man, cupped hands cupped fist, and said auspicious words of no money, which made the middle-aged man even happier, and sprinkled a few more Take the copper coins out.
Chen Luo couldn't help laughing, it was only half a cup of tea before and after the funeral and the birth, separated by an alley, this fate in the world is amazing.
...
After another walk, Chen Luo arrived at the county government office in Goose City.
In Chen Luo's view, the imperial court should be the place where luck gathers, and there may be some clues here.
It's just that as soon as Chen Luo walked to the county government office, he noticed a melon selling shed not far from the county government office.
The melon sellers were an old man and a young man. The old man was in his fifties with white hair, and the young man was in his twenties. Although they had put on some disguises, Chen Luo could tell at a glance that the other party was a woman disguised as a man.
Ordinarily, it’s not a big deal for a woman to dress up as a man to sell melons, but with the eyesight of the master of Chen Luo Martial Dao, he can see at a glance that both of them have kung fu.
Even though Chen Luo can't sense the mortal atmosphere now, and is just an ordinary son, his eyesight is still there.
Isn't it strange that two people with kung fu are selling melons outside the county government office?
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
And this demon may be the clue Chen Luo wants!
Chen Luo walked up quickly, and he didn't want to startle the enemy, after all, with the current combat power of own, it is simply a scum, and it is better to wait and see what happens.
So Chen Luo sat down at a nearby tea stall, ordered a pot of tea, and observed carefully.
After about an hour, the yamen seemed to be on errand, and many yamen servants and officials came out and walked towards Chen Luo.
Chen Luo noticed that the eyes of the melon selling partner fell on a somewhat obese official behind him.
"Assassination?" Chen Luo got up and found a safer direction to hide.
He doesn't intend to remind!
After all, his goal is to find some clues from the chaos.
Soon, when the official approached, the old melon seller took the lead in attacking him, raised the watermelon knife in his hand, jumped up, and rushed forward.
Suddenly the whole scene became chaotic.
"Well, practice Kung Fu outside, let's force it to rank nine!" When everyone was panicking, only Chen Luo stood in the concealment where he had already stood, and took a sip wearing a teapot, probably making an evaluation of the old man's force value in his heart!
As soon as the old man rushed a few steps, he was stopped by the swift-responsive yamen servant, who immediately turned around and ran into the yamen.
"Stupid!" Chen Luo shook his head. The young man disguised as a man had already left and stood guard in another direction. The few steps the official turned and ran happened to be heading in the direction of the other party.
I saw the woman slapped her waist with her hand, and immediately drew out a soft sword, and then the Sword Ray flashed, and blood sealed her throat!
The official fell down clutching his throat, and the woman yelled at the old man, "Go!"
Immediately, the two split into two directions and fled immediately.
Seeing this, Chen Luo immediately chased after the woman!
...
The reason for chasing the woman was that Chen Luo could see that although the woman's move looked fierce, it was actually just an explosive move. After that move was exhausted, she would lose her strength after a long time. And that old man is a real kung fu.
Of course, there is another First Stage reason. The old man attracted most of the yamen servants, and there were only two or three yamen servants who went after the women.
After all, the yamen servants can't see the details of the woman, they are human beings, so naturally chasing her is a soft persimmon.
Chasing women has greater confidence.
It's just that Chen Luo stopped after chasing him for a while.
Damn it!
My own body is too useless.
No matter how hard it took to chase two streets, I was exhausted.
Alas, it's been a long time since I felt the body of a mortal.
Chen Luo sighed, sat down on the side of the road, and took a breath.
Now it's all right, the only event that can be regarded as a mess, was missed by myself.
Chen Luo raised his head and saw the city gate not far away.
Before he knew it, he chased him to the city gate.
Looking at the city gate, Chen Luo suddenly remembered the description in the local chronicles of Goose City, with a big river outside and hundreds of feet across. Goose feathers do not float, but only the five trees of pine, cypress, locust tree, elm, and juniper can float on them and make boats.
Chen Luo frowned slightly. He didn't pay much attention to it when he looked at it before, but now he thinks about it, what are pine, cypress, locust tree, elm, and juniper? Wuyin trees!
The Great River... Could it be the River of Forgetfulness?
Thinking of this, Chen Luo suddenly felt energetic again.
to see?
Just do it!
Chen Luo stood up again and walked out of the city.
...
Walking into the city gate, the sudden shadow gave Chen Luo a chilly feeling.
The city gate seemed to be deeper than I thought, like a tunnel. When Chen Luo walked out of the city gate, I don't know if it was an illusion, but I always felt that the sky was a little gloomy.
Because Goose City is surrounded by a big river, some people come here on weekdays. Outside the city gate, there are only two wooden sculptured soldiers guarding the gate, which looks quite strange.
Looking up, there is indeed a long rushing river in the distance. The river water is not red, but it is not clear either. Chen Luo hesitated for a moment, but still walked towards the big river.
After walking for about half an hour, Chen Luo finally came to the riverside of the big river. Looking at the river, Chen Luo frowned.
If other rivers are flowing, then the river in front of me seems to be wriggling.
Looking around, there is no ferry on this river.
Chen Luo picked up a stone at random and threw it into the river. The stone fell into the river and sank directly to the bottom of the water without even stirring up a splash.
Chen Luo wanted to stretch out his hand to feel the river water, but as soon as he poked his head out, he saw a face reflected in the river. The face was distorted, bleeding from the seven orifices, as if shouting something!
Chen Luo was startled and stepped back.
There are weird!
At this time, Chen Luo didn't think much about it, and turned around quickly to go back to the city.
At this moment, a drop of water suddenly fell on Chen Luo's face.
Chen Luo froze for a moment, then raised his head, only to see the rain falling from the sky.
In the rain, there were suddenly flowers blooming on the shore of the dry grass.
It was a red flower that bloomed like a flame.
Like a prairie fire, flowers like Setsuna spread all over the shore, and Chen Luo seemed to be standing in a sea of flowers.
Chen Luo heard some movement in his ears, he turned his head slowly, and saw that the water in the big river started to turn red, and it turned into bright blood red in the blink of an eye.
Then, shadows crawled out of the river one by one, exuding a terrifying fierceness.
"not good!"
Chen Luo was shocked, and hurriedly ran towards Goose City, but soon, Chen Luo suddenly felt a chill in his chest, he lowered his head, and saw something that looked like a claw and a hand, piercing out of own's chest .
Chen Luo felt that his consciousness was getting weaker and weaker. At the last moment when he closed his eyes, he saw countless red monsters rushing towards Goose City.
Then, Chen Luo closed his eyes...
...
Netherworld, Fengdu City.
Lin Huang stood on the balcony of the sleeping hall, looking in one direction with worry in his eyes.
"Your Majesty... It's time for dinner." Shangguan Wan'er said softly behind Emperor Lin.
"Leave it, I have no appetite today." Emperor Lin waved his hand.
Shangguan Wan'er nodded when she heard the words, but still said, "Your Majesty, the King of Fengdu is stunningly talented, and the trip to the River of Forgetfulness will surely return in triumph."
"I hope so." Lin Huang said lightly.
...
"Young Master, Young Master, wake up." A sound of urging came to Chen Luo's ears. Chen Luo felt someone pushing him, and slowly opened his eyes.
"Huh?" Chen Luo was startled, wasn't he killed by a monster by the river before?
"Young Master, you're awake. Hurry up, this servant will help Young Master change his clothes." Seeing Chen Luo's eyes open, the little maid hurriedly said, "Otherwise it will be too late."
Chen Luo turned his head, looked at the little maid, and asked hesitantly, "What's too late?"
"Greetings to the old man!" The servant girl said quickly, "Today is the first day that the old man returns home. You are the eldest grandson, so you should go and say hello early."
Chen Luo was startled and sat up on the bed.
Gan!
Loop!
There are more than 700 characters missing in the guarantee, and I don't want to delay it, so I sent it first. The less words will be made up...
