Chapter 323

"Journey to the West?" Xiao Longnu asked, "What kind of novel is this?"

Liu Xingdao: ""Journey to the West" is a fairy tale novel. It tells the story of four men who went to the west to find another man to learn scriptures. There are 300 wordless books in the coffin under the sea, but this "Journey to the West" It has words."

Xiao Longnu came to her senses: "Could it be that something happened to me in the world of Journey to the West?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out at the moment." Liu Xing said, "So, I am going to pay attention to "Journey to the West" to investigate."

Xiao Longnv raised her eyebrows, ""Journey to the West" is a fairy-tale novel, so it's not easy to get absorbed in it, isn't it?"

Everyone's brain power is limited, and Liu Xing has already been fascinated by "Zhu Xian", taking up more than half of his brain power.It is even more difficult to continue to immerse yourself in other fairy tale novels than the first time you immerse yourself in it.

"You don't have to worry about being obsessed with "Journey to the West", I have my own way." Liu Xing said, "What I am most worried about now is not "Journey to the West", but the other two wordless books that have disappeared. According to Huang Dog , a conjoined twin named Shuangjiao aunt once picked up three wordless bibles near the book coffin under the sea, one of which was "The Legend of Condor Heroes". "The Legend of Condor Heroes" is already in my hand, But the other two Wordless Heavenly Books are still in the hands of Huang Xiaodou and Huang Mudan."

"Huang Xiaodou? Huang Mudan?" Xiao Longnu asked, "Are they also writers of the Eighteen Emperors of China?"

"That's right. The Eighteenth Emperors of China fled three writers, and Huang Xiaodou and Huang Mudan were among them." Liu Xing said, "Based on the information I have so far, Huang Xiaodou and Huang Mudan have already taken refuge in Fengmanlou. If you want to find these two wordless celestial books, you need to catch Feng Manlou."

Xiao Longnv analyzed: "Fengmanlou has eight old bookworms to assist, and he has secretly cultivated his own power in the imperial kingdom. It is probably a hundred times more difficult to catch him than to arrest the yellow dog."

Liu Xingdao: "This is exactly the reason why I came to you today. To arrest Feng Manlou, a more sophisticated layout is required, and every step must be preemptive. The 'top secret mission' I told you about last time, now should It came in handy."

Xiao Longnv said: "Don't worry, I have already arranged everything, everything is ready."

"That's good." Liu Xing looked at the sky and said, "I'll go back first."

"So fast?" Xiao Longnv was slightly startled, "Aren't you going to stay in the Valley of Heartlessness to have a meal?"

"I don't want to eat anymore, Huaxia Kingdom still has a lot of things waiting for me to deal with." Liu Xing said, "Fengmanlou will take action soon, I need to go back and make some preparations in advance."

Xiao Longnv pursed her thin lips and said softly, "Be careful yourself."

After explaining the matter, Liu Xing bid farewell to Xiaolongnu and returned to China.

……

Empire.

In a secret room, Feng Manlou sat around with eight old bookworms.

"Yellow Dog failed after all." Feng Manlou sighed, "He has been planning for so long, but he still can't kill the shadow man."

The old book beetle said: "It is not easy to kill the black shadow man? The black shadow man is a rare genius. Apart from other things, the attainments in the art of ecstatic reading alone are beyond our reach. Although we have also mastered the art of ecstatic reading, but People who are able to enter the mind are basically over 60 years old, and a genius with outstanding talent must be 50 years old to succeed. However, the black shadow man is only about 40 years old now, but he has already achieved the unity of human and book, which is really incredible."

Feng Manlou said: "This is also what I can't understand. With the ecstasy speed of our "Sunflower Reading Technique", it is impossible to achieve the ecstasy efficiency of the Sombra Man. If the Sombra Man does not use the Sunflower Reading Technique, and What kind of reading is it?"

Old Bookworm B reminded: "Could it be a human-brain connection? Maybe the black shadow man, like the yellow dog, has had a human-brain connection, and his imagination is beyond ordinary people."

Old Bookworm Beetle agreed: "I also have similar doubts. The shadow man may not be a person, but an organization. It may be a combination of many people."

"If the Shadowmen are really an organization, wouldn't our previous thinking be all wrong?"

At this time, Feng Manlou took down a novel from the table, the title of which was "The Secret Biography of the Shadow Man".

This "Secret of the Shadowman" is a documentary novel that Fengmanlou hired top writers to create, by collecting all the information about the Shadowman, and then writing it into a documentary novel.

As long as they have enough information about the Shadowman, the eight old bookworms can use the pre-reading technique to read "The Secret Biography of the Shadowman" and speculate on the future fate of the Shadowman.

Regrettably, the information about the Shadow Man is very fragmented, and most of the information comes from folk rumors, and it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false, which brings great challenges to the creation of the novel.

The most important thing in a documentary novel is authenticity. If the material of the novel is wrong, then the final documentary novel "Secret of the Shadowman" cannot accurately predict the fate of the Shadowman.

"We always thought that the Sombra was a person, so we put all our efforts into creating this "Secret of the Sombra." Feng Manlou said, "If the Sombra is an organization with a large number of people, how can we distinguish which one is which? The shadow man is real, which shadow man is fake?"

"This is the most difficult part." The old bookworm beetle sighed, "Although we have collected a lot of information about the shadow people, it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of these information. For example, two days ago, the yellow dog was killed A mysterious man named Huang Feihong was knocked down. It is said that Huang Feihong's martial arts is extremely high, and a set of "Foshan Shadowless Foot" shocked the audience. You say, is this Huang Feihong a shadow man? If it is a shadow man, then If it is written in "The Secret Biography of the Shadowman", if it is not the Shadowman, it cannot be written, otherwise it will affect the authenticity of the novel."

Old Bookworm Yi said: "Huang Feihong is just one of them, and there are many similar materials. For example, a few months ago, a mysterious old book policeman named Wu Mengda appeared in Novel Street, known as 'Uncle Da'. According to Sun Moon According to the members of the book club, this old book police gun named Wu Mengda is magical, and his actions are unpredictable. Do you think Wu Mengda is a shadow man?"

Old Bookworm C continued: "Also, according to the information just sorted out by our Sunflower Ninja Group, there is a major discovery that in recent months, a foreign man named Tom Cruise has come to Sun Moon Island. The name Tom Cruise may seem ordinary, but after repeatedly checking the intelligence data of Sun Moon Island, it was found that there were Tom Cruise in the locations of our more than a dozen assassinations, and he traveled all over Sun Moon Island. After the yellow dog was arrested, Tom Cruise mysteriously disappeared from Sun Moon Island. Do you think Tom Cruise is the Shadow Man?"

The old bookworm Ding said: "If you want to calculate this way, there are too many suspicious shadow people. Two months ago, at an auction house in Tianyang City, Hunan Province, a mysterious rich man named Li Ka-shing sold for 1.2 million yuan. Take a five-star tomb-robbing novel. We originally sent a killer to hunt him down, but this wealthy businessman named Li Ka-shing suddenly disappeared after leaving the auction house. Not long after, our killer also disappeared."

"Also, a month ago, we planned to raid the library in Kunfeng City to steal novels. As a result, we met a mysterious man named Huo Yuanjia, who defeated us with a set of "Huojia Boxing" 49 top killers. We have been investigating for a month, but we have not found Huo Yuanjia's identity."

"In addition, it is said that in the casino in Aomen City, a mysterious gambling master named Chow Yun-fat once appeared. In one night, Chow Yun-fat won 1.3 million yuan, and the name of the God of Gamblers spread throughout Omen City. Casino. However, since then, no one has seen Chow Yun Fat again."

"Besides, there are Hong Quan master Hong Xiguan who appeared in Pinghai County, Jobs who appeared in the beggar organization in Nanying City, the mysterious rich businessman Bill Gailou who appeared in Donglou City, and the mysterious pirate Luffy who encountered the Qiandao terrorist organization. , The mysterious black-clothed ninja Uzumaki Naruto encountered by the Imperial Ninja Group... In recent months, bizarre characters have appeared one after another. Are they the shadow people? Should we write the information we have collected into "Black Shadow" In "The Secret Biography of People"?"

"If these materials are Sombra, then it is no problem to write them into the documentary. But if they are not Sombra, this will seriously affect our judgment on the future situation."

Speaking of this, the eight old bookworms all frowned.

Although they can read ahead, if they can't find a suitable documentary novel, they can't speculate on the actions of the shadow people at all.

If the information in nonfiction is wrong, their pre-reading techniques will only lead to wrong guesses.

"How about this." Feng Manlou said, "We can write different versions of the novel, some novels include these materials, and some novels do not include the materials. Among all the versions of the novel, there is always one version that is correct."

"Old Feng, you are so naive." Old Bookworm Beetle reminded, "Every time there is a mysterious character, our novel version will double. 2 mysterious character, the number of novel versions is 1; 2 mysterious characters, the number of novel versions is 2; The number of novel versions is 4; 3 mysterious characters, the number of novel versions is 8...10 mysterious characters, the number of novel versions will reach an astonishing 1024. The more mysterious characters, the number of novel versions will skyrocket exponentially. "

"We have discovered dozens of mysterious characters now, Huang Feihong, Wu Mengda, Tom Cruise, Chow Yun-fat, Hong Xiguan, Li Ka-shing, Huo Yuanjia, Luffy, Uzumaki Naruto, Jobs, Bill Gailou...so many Mysterious characters, the number of novel versions we need is very large."

"What's more terrible is that the number of mysterious characters is still increasing. At that time, I'm afraid we will have tens of thousands, or even millions of copies of "Secrets of the Shadowman", each with a different version. Let me ask, With so many different versions of the novel, how can we use pre-reading to predict the Shadowman?"

Feng Manlou frowned, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Is there really no way to predict the actions of the shadow man?"

Old Bookworm C said: "The black shadow man is also a master of pre-reading skills, and his level is not lower than the eight of us. He probably expected that we would collect his information, so he intentionally confuses the public and released a bunch of true and false information." Difficult news confuses us. The more these news, the more we can't do anything about him. If this goes on, it will become more and more difficult for us to suppress the shadow man in terms of intelligence."

Feng Manlou asked: "According to everyone's opinion, how should we deal with it now?"

The old Bookworm Beetle said: "The Shadowman has already represented the Book King in the eastern and southern China at the same time. It is difficult for us to shake him in these two regions. The western and northern parts of China are our chances. If we can secretly control Huaxia With the addition of the power of the imperial kingdom to the west or north, we will undoubtedly have the upper hand."

Old Bookworm B went on to analyze: "Northern China is the place where schools are established. There are many construction institutions there. If there is no internal response, our people will not be able to attack at all. Therefore, Western China is a better choice. It happens that Huang Xiaodou and Huang Mudan has lived in seclusion in western China for decades, and is familiar with the western environment, which can provide us with a lot of convenience."

The old bookworm Ding added: "The shadow man just arrested the yellow dog, and it is when he is most relaxed, we can take advantage of it."

Feng Manlou thought for a while and decided: "It seems that it's time to win the west."

……

Huaxia Kingdom, Lezhou City.

In the Burying Soul Palace, Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue were eating seafood hot pot.

"This shrimp meat is not bad. The Taiji prawns in the South China Sea really deserve their reputation!" Liu Xing chewed the shrimp meat while drinking the wine.

Hua Yingxue picked up two slices of shrimp for him, put them in a bowl, and said, "If you like shrimp, ask the chef to cook more."

Liu Xing put down his wine glass, pursed his lips, and said, "I'm afraid it won't work. We'll be on business again tomorrow."

Hua Yingxue asked: "Where are you going?"

Liu Xing took out a stack of documents on the side, and said, "The Book Police Team has just collected information that there is an imperial ninja group haunting northern China. Among them, there is also a mysterious man who appears to be Huang Xiaodou."

"Northern China?" Hua Yingxue frowned, "Feng Manlou is going to attack the North?"

Liu Xing shook his head: "This is a little trick to make a difference. The north is where genres are set, and the four major novel schools designed by [Dream into Shenyu] are like a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. The secret passages of the organs are hard to guard against. How can people who are full of wind dare to rush in? Lou's real goal is the western part of China, so I have to go to the western part."

Hua Yingxue said: "You want to arrest Huang Xiaodou?"

"It's not just Huang Xiaodou." Liu Xing said, "I'm going to take Fengmanlou and the eight old bookworms together this time to avoid future troubles. After waiting for so long, Fengmanlou finally took action in the west. This is an excellent opportunity for the Old Bookworm Alliance to catch all of them in one go. I must go and see for myself. Yingxue, get ready and go out with me tomorrow."

"Hmm." Hua Yingxue asked, "What do I need to prepare?"

"In order to avoid alarming others, we need to change our appearance again and change to a new identity." Liu Xing said, "From tomorrow onwards, your name will be Yuan Fang."

"Yuan Fang?" Hua Yingxue said, "Yuan Fang is a pretty name. By the way, what's your name?"

Liu Xing said, "My name is Di Renjie."

"Di Renjie?" Hua Yingxue said, "Why did you choose such a name? Does it have any special meaning?"

Liu Xing said: "Don't you think that the name Di Renjie looks like a detective?"

"Detective?" Hua Yingxue said, "I don't feel much, but I think Di Renjie is like Huang Feihong, he looks like a martial arts master."

"You are wrong. Di Renjie is mediocre in martial arts and can only solve cases." Liu Xing said, "Yuan Fang is a master. Eat first, and when you are full, I will dress you up and disguise yourself as Yuan Fang."

Hua Yingxue was curious: "What does Yuan Fang look like?"

"Don't worry, as soon as you hear the name, you know that Yuan Fang must be a lovely girl."

After chatting for a few words, Liu Xing thought to himself: Although the disguise technique can change the appearance, it is somewhat troublesome, and each disguise takes more than ten minutes.

If you can be absorbed in "Journey to the West" and learn Monkey King's "72 Changes", it will save a lot of trouble...
