Chapter 268 The Battle of the Book Kings
Late at night, Valley of Unrequited Love.

The moonlight was like water, and a bonfire was burning by the lakeside in the valley. Liu Xing and Xiaolongnv were sitting together, eating a pot of boiled live fish.

This is a farewell feast.

The antidote for the Three Corpses Brain God Pill has been found, and Liu Xing is going to leave the world of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" tonight and return to China.

"This boiled fish tastes a bit bland."

"Is there any? It's just right for me to eat! How about I add some seasoning?"

"No, I've almost eaten enough."

Liu Xing wiped his mouth, and then said, "After I'm gone, don't be fascinated by "Zhu Xian" for the time being. If you fall into a coma again, no one can beg you. In short, you stay in the Valley of Unfeeling, don't worry about it." Act rashly, everything will be discussed after I come back.”

Xiao Longnv smiled and said: "You don't have to be so strict, I'm not a three-year-old child."

Looking at the sky, Liu Xing said: "It's almost time, I should go, you can do it."

"En." After finishing speaking, Xiao Longnv took out a white pill from her bosom, this pill is called Binghun Pill, it is very similar to Guixi Pill, it can slow down people's metabolism to almost stop.

As long as Liu Xing takes the Ice Soul Pill, he will lose consciousness. At that time, he will become a vegetable in the real world, and Hua Yingxue will wake Liu Xing up with music.

In this way, Liu Xing will be able to return to China.

Xiao Longnv put the Ice Soul Pill into a jar of daughter's red, shook it, then handed the wine to Liu Xing, said with a smile: "Shadow Man, I have already administered the poison, you can drink this wine."

Liu Xing took Nur Hong, glanced at it, and asked, "Half a year ago, Yang Guo fell into a coma after taking the Ice Soul Pill, right?"

Xiao Longnv nodded: "Don't worry, there will be no pain, after drinking, you will pass out immediately."

"Okay." Liu Xing put his daughter's red drink to his lips, and was about to drink it, but suddenly stopped and said, "Am I really leaving?"

Xiao Longnv smiled and said: "Got it, you can go with peace of mind!"

Liu Xing picked up Nvhong who had taken the medicine, and drank it gulply. As soon as the wine entered his stomach, the properties of the medicine took effect immediately, and he felt dizzy for a while, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.

Not long after, Liu Xing passed out and lay down on the ground, his body temperature dropped sharply, as if frozen, without any consciousness.

"Shadow man?"

Xiao Longnv called softly a few times, but Liu Xing remained motionless and did not respond.

"Should he return to China?"

After Liu Xing fell into a coma, the valley suddenly became quiet.

Sitting alone by the lakeside, Xiao Longnv rested her chin lightly with her small hands, staring at the lake in front of her in a daze.

She had lived in the world of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" for many years, and was used to living alone. The appearance of the shadow man was an unexpected surprise.

In the past six months, she had been with the shadow man day and night, but now that the shadow man suddenly left again, she was not used to it.

Raising her head, Xiao Longnu turned her eyes to the blue night sky.

"Will the shadow man really come back?"

……

The real world, the book king's secret room.

Liu Xing lay quietly on the floor, motionless, and he had turned into a vegetative state.

Hua Yingxue, who was waiting by the side, immediately fetched the jade flute and played the "Pure Heart and Pu Shan Mantra". When the song was finished, Liu Xing gradually regained consciousness and was successfully awakened.

Opening his eyes, Liu Xing sat up and looked around: "How long have I been fascinated?"

"About eighteen hours." Hua Yingxue asked with concern, "Shadow Man, have you found Fairy Burying Soul?"

Liu Xing nodded: "The Burial Soul Fairy is really fascinated by the little dragon girl in "The Legend of Condor Heroes". Unfortunately, she has also been fascinated by many other novels before, so she can't come back for the time being."

Hua Yingxue asked: "Then what should we do now?"

Liu Xingdao: "The Burial Soul Fairy once wrote a diary, and now I need to find this diary..."

Just as he was talking, there was a strange noise from the secret room next door.

Liu Xing walked into the secret room next door, and saw Yuxin holding a white bath towel, scrubbing the wet hair of Fairy Burying Soul.

At this time, Fairy Burying Soul is still unconscious and unable to take care of herself. Yuxin just gave her another bath and changed into new clothes.

"Yu Xin."

"Huh?" Yu Xin looked up, only to find that the shadow man had entered the secret room, "Are you back?"

"I just met Fairy Burying Soul in the world of "The Legend of Condor Heroes." Liu Xing introduced, "She has two words for me to convey to you."

Yuxin frowned slightly: "What are you talking about?"

Liu Xingdao: "The Burial Soul Fairy said thank you very much for helping her bathe and changing her clothes every week. She told you not to be too tired and pay attention to rest. When she returns to China in the future, she will definitely treat you to coffee."

Yuxin smiled and said, "You made this up yourself, didn't you?"

"You're really smart, but you can't fool you." Liu Xing said, "The Burial Soul Fairy actually wants to treat you to drink honey."

Yuxin smiled lightly again.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you here, I have something to go out for a while."

"Ah."

……

After leaving the book king's secret room, Liu Xing immediately did two things.

The first thing is, in the name of the reading alliance, Liu Xing publicized information about the Three Corpse Brain Pills in major media across the country, and introduced the dangers of the Three Corpse Brain Pills in detail, so as to remind the general public to be vigilant and avoid eating them by mistake.

The second thing is that Liu Xing set up a scientific research team to conduct research on the Three Corpse Brain God Pill.The entire scientific research team has a total of more than 2000 people, bringing together experts in more than [-] fields such as medicine, brain science, biology, reading science, and musicology.

This scientific research project is of great importance, so it was not disclosed to the outside world, but was carried out in secret.

At the same time, more than 100 celebrities who were kidnapped before had taken the Three Corpse Brain Pill, so they cooperated with the experts of the scientific research team to carry out related scientific research work on music and the Three Corpse Brain Pill.

After completing these two tasks, Liu Xing left Tianhai City and went to Lezhou City in the south of China, planning to find the diary written by Fairy Burial Soul.

If this diary can be found, it is possible to find a way to awaken the Burial Soul Fairy.

According to Xiaolongnv's memories, this diary should be hidden in the four novel schools of "Qinqi, Calligraphy and Painting".

The four major novel academies of "Qinqi, Calligraphy and Painting" were all founded by Fairy Burial Soul, and they are the highest schools of consciousness schools.

They are: Duanqin Fiction Academy, Regret Qi Fiction Academy, Burning Book Fiction Academy, Jihua Fiction Academy.

Among the four novel schools, Duanqin School of Fiction is the place where Fairy Buried Soul lived the longest. Therefore, Liu Xing plans to find someone from Duanqin School of Fiction...

……

Lezhou City, Duanqin Novel Academy.

In the meeting room of the Music Building, there were more than 40 people, most of whom were over seventy years old, and they were the most powerful figures in southern China.

Among them, including the deans of the four major novel colleges of "Qin Qi Calligraphy and Painting", members of the Southern Council of the Reading Alliance, the president of the South China Writers Association, and the president of the Book Appreciation Association.

They gathered together tonight to discuss the issue of the new book king in the south.

A few months ago, the news of the disappearance of the four great book kings at the same time had spread throughout China, and the disappearance of the Burial Soul Fairy was also known to scholars in southern China.

Dragons cannot be leaderless.

Now that the Burial Soul Fairy has disappeared, the election of the new book king has become a matter of greatest concern to scholars in southern China.

It's a pity that the position of King of Books is too dazzling, and many people are eyeing it covetously.

We held a meeting and discussed for most of the day, but it was still difficult to reach a consensus.

"The Reading Alliance has always had clear regulations on the election of the Book King." Cao Shuxiong, the dean of the Burning Book Fiction Academy, said, "As long as you win the novel contest, you will automatically become a candidate for the Book King."

Southern Huaxia also has its own novel contest, called the "Burning Soul Cup" novel contest. It is the highest-level competition in the genre of consciousness. It is held every two years, and it has been held for 20 times so far.

The winners of the Burial Soul Cup Novel Contest are all eligible to run for the Book King. Therefore, Southern China currently has 20 candidates for the Book King.

"Since there are already 20 candidates for Book King, we can vote." Cao Shuxiong said, "Whoever gets the most votes will be elected Book King."

"President Cao's method is the most fair."

"I agree with Lao Cao's proposal."

……

More than a dozen members of the council have expressed their opinions and positively supported Cao Shuxiong's approach. Most of these people have received Cao Shuxiong's favor, and they are basically from the same faction.

Cao Shuxiong is not only the dean of the Book Burning Novel Academy, but also won the second "Burning Soul Cup" Novel Contest, and he still holds the record for the youngest winner of the Novel Contest.

Since more than 30 years ago, Cao Shuxiong has been regarded as the most powerful successor to the king of books.

Now that the Burial Soul Fairy is missing, this is undoubtedly the best opportunity for Cao Shuxiong.

"I think the matter of the book king should be discussed in the long term." At this time, Tong Jiuxian, the dean of Duanqin Fiction Academy, put forward a different opinion, "Whether Fairy Burying Soul is really missing is still uncertain. The most urgent thing is to find a way to find Fairy Burying Soul , rather than rushing to elect a new book king.”

Cao Shuxiong retorted: "For the past two months, haven't we been looking for the Burial Soul Book King? Unfortunately, we have found nothing so far. The disappearance is absolutely true."

A member of the council agreed: "The Burial Soul Fairy has not appeared for many years, and she may have passed away long ago. The election of the new book king is imminent, and there is no longer any delay."

"It is also possible to elect the new book king, but one condition must be met first." Tong Jiuxian's voice sank, and he solemnly reminded, "The Burial Soul Fairy made a rule back then. If you want to inherit the position of book king, you need to enter the Burial Soul Palace. May I ask, who of you here dares to enter the Burial Soul Palace?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and the entire meeting room fell silent.

Hearing the words "Burning Soul Palace", many people showed fear on their faces.

The Burying Soul Palace is located in the secret room in the basement of the library of Duanqin Academy of Fiction.

Burying Soul Palace is the place where Fairy Burying Soul used to live. It is extremely mysterious and few people can enter it.

40 years ago, the Burial Soul Fairy once set a strange rule that only those who can survive in the Burial Soul Palace are eligible to inherit the throne of Book King.

40 years have passed, and no one has dared to enter the Burial Soul Palace. Even after learning that the Burial Soul Fairy is missing, no one dares to approach the Burial Soul Palace.

Because there are many chilling rumors circulating in Burial Soul Palace.

"Dean Tong, according to what you say, if no one dares to enter the Burial Soul Palace, why don't we keep electing the King of Books?" Cao Shuxiong asked.

Tong Jiuxian argued: "The Burial Soul Fairy set this rule back then, so she has her reasons. In short, whoever dares to enter the Burial Soul Palace, I, Tong Jiuxian, will support whoever is the book king."

Cao Shuxiong asked back: "Dean Tong, the Burying Soul Palace is set up in Duanqin Novel Academy, don't you want to get the moon first?"

Tong Jiuxian said in a choked voice: "Old Cao, if you are not convinced, you can enter the Palace of Burying Souls first. If you can come out of the Palace of Burying Souls alive, I will be the first to approve of you as the King of Books, how about it?"

Cao Shuxiong's face turned blue, and a cloud of anger rose in his heart, but he didn't dare to agree.

Tong Jiuxian followed the words: "Since no one dares to enter the Burial Soul Palace, the election of the Book King can only be considered in the long term..."

Cao Shuxiong interrupted in a cold voice: "Book King is related to the fate of hundreds of millions of scholars in the eight southern provinces, how can it be delayed again and again? This matter should be decided by everyone's vote!" Looking at the crowd, "Do you think so?"

"Old Cao is right, the new book king should be elected!"

"I support voting!"

"The Palace of Burying Souls was established 40 years ago, and we don't need to stick to it. Rules are dead, but people are alive."

"well said!"

……

Everyone commented again.

Whoosh!
Suddenly, a black shadow flew into the meeting room, like black lightning, across the air.

When everyone reacted, they found that a man in black was already standing in the center of the meeting room.

"Black... shadow man?"

Seeing this scene, more than 40 people at the scene stood up one after another, not daring to neglect in the slightest.

Although the shadow man is the book king in Eastern China, the book king is the highest leader of the reading alliance. From the position point of view, he is also the boss of everyone present here.

"Are you the Shadow Book King?"

Tong Jiuxian, the dean of the Duanqin Fiction Academy, stepped forward and asked tentatively.

Liu Xing groped into his bosom and took out a black book card, which was a special Book King card, and there was only one in the entire Huaxia Kingdom, and it was the ID of the Shadowman.

Since someone pretended to be the Shadowman a few months ago, the Reading Alliance has made a book king card for the Shadowman so that others can identify him.

Tong Jiuxian leaned forward and took a closer look at the black Book King card in Liu Xing's hand. He saw eight anti-counterfeit purple lights flashing on the card, just like the eight stars and eight arrows diamond crystal card with special effects, dazzling and dazzling.

"It's really the king of shadow books!"

Tong Jiuxian said happily.

After confirming the identity of the shadow man, more than 40 people in the conference room hurriedly saluted Liu Xing, and a member of the council offered to move a high-class seat for Liu Xing.

"Everyone sit down, don't be cautious." Liu Xing waved his hand, and everyone returned to their seats.

"Black Shadow Book King, why did you come to Lezhou City?" Cao Shuxiong asked strangely.

Liu Xingdao: "I'm here today mainly to tell you something. The Burial Soul Fairy has been found. She's safe and sound. You don't have to worry."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was instantly shocked.

Cao Shuxiong was dubious: "The Burial Soul Fairy has really been found?"

Liu Xing introduced: "I just met Fairy Burying Soul yesterday. She is living a very good life. Last night we ate a pot of boiled fish by the lakeside in the valley and drank two cups of the centuries-old daughter red wine." , the taste is good..."

"..." Everyone.

Tong Jiuxian showed joy, and asked: "The Black Shadow Book King, where is Fairy Burying Soul now?"

"She has some urgent business to do at the moment, so she can't come back for the time being." Liu Xing said, "As for the new book king, she has her own arrangements, so you don't have to worry about it."

Hearing this, Cao Shuxiong's face turned green all of a sudden.

"It's really great, as long as the King of Buried Soul Book is fine!" Tong Jiuxian heaved a sigh of relief, and said respectfully to Liu Xing, "King of Black Shadow Book, thank you for traveling so far to tell us the good news. It's rare for you to come and break the news." Qin Novel Academy once, I'll let someone prepare a banquet right now..."

Liu Xing waved his hand: "The banquet will be skipped. I have one more thing to do today. Fairy Burial Soul asked me to pick up something, and this thing will be placed in the Palace of Burial Soul."

After a pause, Liu Xing turned to Tong Jiuxian, "Dean Tong, where is the Burial Soul Palace, please show me the way."

Everyone was shocked.

Tong Jiuxian was also taken aback for a moment, and carefully confirmed: "King of the Shadow Book, do you really want to enter the Burying Soul Palace?"

"Yes, I want to go in and get something." Liu Xing asked, "Dean Tong, are you free tonight?"

Tong Jiuxian reminded: "The Black Shadow Book King, this Burial Soul Palace is weird and unpredictable. After entering, you will be close to death..."

Liu Xing comforted: "Don't worry, you just need to be responsible for leading the way, and I will go in by myself."
