Moon Emperor

Chapter 440 Narcissus Empress
Seeing Su Yan's surprised expression, the Taihu Water God couldn't help but smile complacently, and other colleagues were also a little surprised.

Poyang Lake God smiled and said: "Good fellow, this treasure is extremely valuable. I didn't expect that my old friend would be willing to take it out."

"How about this, do you want to use this as a bonus and let's have another bet?"

Taihu Water God added: "This jade hook is worth all the chips in your hand, we will decide the outcome in one round! How about it?"

Su Yan came to his senses and laughed out loud, looking very bold, "Okay!"

In fact, Su Yan was determined to get this jade hook. He originally thought that it was just a key prop in the world of the book. If he couldn't get it, he wouldn't be able to trigger the next stage of the plot.

But Su Yan never expected that that damn old demon would actually turn Cui Xiuyun into this jade hook. While he complained and complained, he was also secretly glad that this way, he and his aunt would not have to face embarrassing situations. Problem.

Next, the gambling game between Su Yan and the Taihu Water God started again, and the Taihu Water God still took the lead. He took five throws and threw them into the jade basin. The first one threw two black and three red. To be honest, he had no chance of winning. big.

At this moment, Taihu Water God's old face turned pale immediately, and several other people were also shouting, slapping their thighs, and beating their hearts.

Hongze Lake God even shouted: "It's better to let me come."

"Shut up!" Poyang Lake God glared at him.

Next was Su Yan, with a serious look on his face, he held the throw with both hands and pondered for a long time before throwing the crucial throw.

The result is: red 4, black 5, red 2, black 1, black 1.

Su Yan only got two reds, he lost!

"Ha!" Taihu Water God jumped three feet into the air with an ecstatic look on his face, "I won, I won!!" His roar was about to explode through the water palace mansion, and dust fell from the beams, even Su Yan. He was yelled to the point of being dizzy.

The other water gods also hugged each other, laughed, and cheered. This time they could be said to have made a comeback. They had lost all night, but now they had won it back.

Su Yan didn't cheat this time, and he really lost the toss. It felt like destiny, but he didn't despair.

"Wait a minute!" I saw Su Yan pushing back all the chips in front of him, "I lose this one, but I still have tens of thousands of wealth on the boat, so I will use them to celebrate your birthday. I am still betting on this jade. Hook, let’s throw another round!”

The four water gods didn't care. They had just won a big victory. The Taihu Water God with his tail raised up even said: "Come on, come on, since Mr. Wang refuses to admit defeat, I can only convince you."

This time it was Taihu Water God who threw first. He had great luck and actually threw four reds and one black, and all four reds were 6s.

This means that even Su Yan can throw four reds, but unless he also has four 6s, he will definitely lose.

"I'm back, I'm all back, this night's luck lies in these two hands." The Taihu Water God couldn't help crying as he said this, and several colleagues were also shocked.

Chaohu Lake Water God saw Su Yan's heavy expression and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Wang, why don't you admit defeat? If you admit defeat now, you will only lose half of it, otherwise it will be said that we invited you to play all night, and in the end you lost all your money on this trip."

Although Su Yan looked heavy, he still waved his hand, "Brother, you are joking. Gambling houses are always willing to admit defeat. Do I, Wang, look like the kind of person who can't afford to lose?"

"Come! Take a look at my move." After saying that, he threw the fateful throw.

Due to Su Yan's skillful use of the inkstone, the five dice were spinning in the jade basin, and it took a while before they stopped one by one.

Red 6, red 6, red 6
Seeing this scene, the Taihu Water God's heart immediately tightened, right?No way? ?
Red 2. Seeing this, the four water gods felt a little relieved, but they still did not dare to relax and stared at the last throw.

Su Yan clenched his fists, opened his eyes wide, and shouted loudly, "Red!"

As he finished speaking, the last coin stopped spinning, and it turned out to be a red 4!

At this time, Taihu Water God's eyes went straight, and his whole body went limp, almost falling to the ground. The other three gods all looked in disbelief.

Su Yan was overjoyed when he saw this. He immediately picked up the jade hook and said, "Thank you for your generous gift. I will not take anything else. The sky is getting brighter. Please let me say goodbye."

Seeing this, the God of Poyang Lake couldn't help stroking his beard and sighed: "I heard that this way has its own profound skills, and it is not all about luck. Today I can see that your skills are indeed extraordinary. Let's stop here."

Chaohu and Hongzehu nodded quickly. They did not want to export all their wealth.

Only the God of Taihu looked lost, as if he hadn't come to his senses yet, "Jade hook, my jade hook doesn't, it can't go."

Seeing this, the God of Poyang Lake shook his head and said, "It's too late to have any more guests. Come on, please send me back."

It was still the same pair of maids in blue who saw them off. As soon as they left the mansion, the maid said: "My master, please remind me that what you got today is a rare treasure. If you take a boat across the river, I'm afraid it will be taken away by Madam Jade Mirror, so please be careful."

Su Yan naturally nodded in agreement.

In the secret land of Tianyuan, a mysterious area shrouded in black mist appeared silently in a corner again.

A man's joyful voice came from among them, "Haha! Today is exactly my destiny. No, everything is thanks to the blessing of the Immortal Lord."

Just as he was talking to himself, a ghost-like figure seemed to be attracted by the voice and came to Sakon.

This figure looks like a woman, but her face and figure are blurry, like a wisp of smoke or a wisp of white mist.

It floated swayingly into the black mist, and then in the temple in the center of the area, a man wearing a purple mask and a purple ribbon fairy robe let out a cry, because the "Wish Linglong" in his hand rang There was a thud.

"Someone has come in?" The man spread out his consciousness in confusion, but found no trace. Most of the people had been sent away.

"Forget it." The man murmured to himself as he continued to figure out how to gather all the mist that Yuan Linglong had dispersed back into the mysterious jade in his hand.As the exquisite sound rang out, that wisp of ghost appeared in the boundless sea of ​​books. To be precise, it appeared above the "Falcon Window Night Talk" and lingered beside it.

After a few breaths, the old book that had been closed opened again. One of the pages had this description: The two men in green clothes still came to see each other off and said to the king: "What you have obtained is a treasure. If you go beyond The water may be grabbed by Mrs. Yujing, so be careful." Wang nodded and said.When I returned to the boat, I felt as if I was in a dream.

Immediately, the brilliance of the page shined brightly, capturing the wandering ghosts in it.

After Su Yan returned to the building, he felt as if he had woken up from a dream.

After daybreak, the weather became clear, and the strong winds of the past few days finally subsided. The boatmen shouted to weigh anchor and unmoor, and embarked on the sailing journey again.

The next few days were uneventful. Su Yan did not tell anyone her secret. She just stayed in the room all day long, thinking about how to change Cui Xiuyun back into the jade hook.

But it's a pity that Su Yan doesn't have any magic power at present, so there is really nothing he can do.

So he could only say to Yugou: "Sorry, I have wronged my aunt for a while. After I finish the story, we should be able to escape from the world in the book."

Naturally, Yu Gou didn't react at all at this moment, and he still had a discerning look.

At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly came from outside, and the young boy's voice also rang out, "Sir, this is a place that crosses water. We are about to cross the Tiao River. As you ordered before, let the boy Let me remind you."

Su Yan's heart tightened when he heard this. He looked at the jade hook in his hand and smiled helplessly. He said, "I know, go ahead."

After the boy walked away, Su Yan secretly communicated with the Jade Slave, "I'm afraid that Mrs. Jade Mirror will come to seize the treasure next. Is there any way to keep the Jade Hook?"

If possible, Su Yan doesn't want to bother anymore. He wants to return to his hometown with the jade hook to see if he can directly trigger the finale.

"There is nothing I can do. I think Master, you seem to have the ability to predict the unknown. You have probably read this story, right? Then can you just follow it? Or, there are great dangers in the subsequent plot, and you feel that you can't survive it. ?" There was confusion in Yu Nu's tone.

"Well." Su Yan hesitated, "If the follow-up development is really the same as the story I've read, that would be okay."

"It's just that I'm afraid that this matter won't be that simple. If the old demon makes it difficult for me, if I add one or two changes at will, and add one or two plots that are not there originally, I'm afraid that I won't be able to withstand it. After all, this world in the book The upper limit of his power is very high."

"Then I have no idea. Let's take a step at a time. The world in this book is very weird." The last sentence of Yu Nu was almost muttered to himself.

That night, Su Yan held Yu Gou tightly in his arms and went to sleep. He even just pretended to sleep, hoping to do his best to deal with the thief. If he could communicate, maybe he could not follow the original plot.

But while lying there, Su Yan fell asleep in a daze. When he woke up the next day, he suddenly discovered that the jade hook in his arms was missing.

"F*ck!" Su Yan yelled angrily. He didn't even have time to put on his coat, so he ran outside angrily and shouted, "Where is the person?! Someone, someone has been stolen. Your master, my treasure has been stolen." !”

From all over the ship, guards, servants, boatmen, etc. heard the sound and hurried over. They all knew that in the past few days, the master was nervously holding a piece of jade and missing in the room. Could it be that the treasure was stolen?But who has such courage?
On the deck, when everyone was almost there, Su Yan spoke angrily about the theft last night, "Who do you think did this?"

Before the innocent guards and members of the Wang family could defend themselves, several boatmen said: "Master, Master Wang, it was definitely not us."

"There is a Narcissus Temple at the lower reaches of Tiao River. We don't know the name of the Narcissus Queen, but according to local legend, if a boat passenger passes by the stream carrying a heavy treasure, the Narcissus Queen will send someone to take it away."

Su Yan raised an eyebrow, "Is there such a thing? Did you make it up to deceive me?"

"Don't you dare, don't you dare," said an old boatman with gray hair, waving his hands: "If you don't believe it, our boat will be able to sail near the Narcissus Temple in a while. You can go down and have a look and ask around." villagers."

"Okay, then I'll go see it."

When the boat arrived in front of Narcissus Temple, Su Yan immediately asked someone to anchor and stop. He also took four or five of his men with him, and two boatmen accompanied him.

The Narcissus Temple is not large in scale, with only two entrances from the front and back, but the overall temple is well-maintained, clean and tidy. The decorations in the temple are also quite gorgeous, and there are colorful murals on the walls. It seems that although there are no temple blessings in the temple, there are still pilgrims. Maintenance, repairs.

When you enter the main hall, you can see a statue of a female fairy at the top. She is wearing an emerald jade crown and a cloud-like dress. She has a very beautiful appearance, a soft and charming face, and a pair of watery eyes. It naturally has a divine color of compassion.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing for Su Yan is that the statue's chest is very full, tall and upright. Although it is a stone statue, it still looks very charming and beautiful.

Su Yan couldn't help but be shocked when she saw this statue of Narcissus!He murmured to himself: "What's going on?"

The appearance of this statue is [-]% to [-]% similar to that of an old friend of Su Yan's, especially the characteristics of a certain part, that is, the one Su Yan ridiculed as "yourong is big".

But why is Yourong here?This time, Qingcheng Palace brought many elite disciples. Su Yan had seen many familiar faces before, such as Zhao Yan'er, Ning Ying, Xie Bingxin, and even the senior brothers Chen Yingnian and Yu Yumo were also there, but among them were not There was no sign of Yourong.

The last time I saw her was more than ten years ago. Ever since she and Yuzhen became Taoist couples, she had gone down the mountain alone with only her sword, saying that she was going to a distant place to practice. How could she appear here inexplicably?
Su Yan calmed down and thought seriously. Could this be an image of the world in the book that evolved based on the thoughts and desires hidden in his heart?
Even Yu Nu recognized Yourong and started yelling: "Isn't this the little girl from Qingcheng Palace with a fierce breast? Well, you Su Yan, you think about others day and night, right?" "

Su Yan was a little embarrassed, "I didn't, don't talk nonsense, there is no such thing as Yourong." Well, it seems that's right, the material conditions are bad.

Forget it, Su Yan put her doubts behind her. The most important thing now was to get her aunt back.

He went straight to the temple to look for clues. A group of his men were waiting outside the door, watching his master doing everything he could.

Su Yan first walked to a stone tablet erected on the right side of the statue.

The inscription on this inscription is in classical Chinese. It generally tells how the magic power of Narcissus Queen is so powerful, how she protects the people in daily life, and how effective it is after offering incense to her.

Anyway, they were mostly words of praise, but they didn't mention the name or name of the narcissus at all.

Su Yan found an ancient stele covered with dust behind the statue. The words on the stele had long been obliterated, leaving only the word "Jade Mirror" in the upper right corner that was vaguely legible. This was in line with the previous reminder of the maid in blue. Yes, Mrs. Jade Mirror is probably the name used by this Narcissus in the past.
