Chapter 69
The guests in the teahouse shouted "One more", but everyone on the stage ignored them.
Amidst the fierce music, they quickly changed their formations, sometimes using uniform sword moves, and sometimes fighting in pairs. Then one party was attacked and retreated continuously, and was about to fall off the stage, but they fought back, each move became more fierce than the last, and finally put the sword across the opponent's neck to completely turn defeat into victory, causing the guests to scream in surprise. with applause.
These are all rehearsed.
As early as the martial arts team fixed the performance time and location, Fu Wenyu began to think about the follow-up issues. For example, you can’t have just one set of performances, otherwise it will become outdated very quickly.
So before they were too old, they rehearsed another set.
The new set has a longer performance, adds more confrontational elements, and has a lot of fighting scenes, as if the people on the stage are real martial arts people. In order to give people a sense of freshness, even the music was a new piece, so it caused a sensation in Liuzhou City after the performance, and people gathered to watch.
As the first audience, Gong Wenbin even suggested to Fu Wenyu that they should go to the capital to perform.
But Fu Wenyu refused.
Because most people in the capital have not read the story "Rebirth: Treasure Map" and have no concept of "martial arts", now is not a good time. Moreover, two sets of programs are a bit rare. It will be better to rehearse one or two sets after a period of time and form a small performance.
So Gong Wenbin had no choice but to go back with the deed, the copied storybook of "The Treasure Map of Rebirth", and some peripherals.
After sending Gong Wenbin away, Fu Wenyu, who had already written all the contents of the storybook and received the illustrations from Mr. Murong, devoted himself to printing the storybook. According to the previous plan, a total of 100 sets of the hardcover version and 5,000 sets of the regular version will be printed this time. The hardcover version contains all the sword manuals and the 'Chongyun Sword' that cannot be bought outside, while the regular version contains one sword move for every five hundred sets as a bonus.
In addition, at a time when martial arts teams are becoming popular again, the sword manuals for the first ten moves of the ‘Thirteen Moves of the Clouds’ have also been officially put on sale, and they were sold out as soon as they were launched. Because even people who are not interested in the dialogue or are illiterate want to buy a book to learn swordsmanship.
When people who came to buy learned that there were only ten moves in the sword manual, and the last three moves were only available in the hardcover version, the sales volume of the hardcover version increased slightly.
Here in Liuzhou, Fu Wenyu was so busy that he never touched the ground, but some changes also occurred in the distant capital. For example, the common people found that the number of tabloids they often read in the capital changed from one to two.
"Hey, why is there an extra one?"
The guy selling the tabloid smiled heartily and said, "Sir, the other one is a storybook. From today on, our capital tabloid will also print a storybook. Although it is for two sheets, we only charge the money for one sheet. If you like it, come back more often.”
"Script?"
The person who bought the tabloid also happened to be a reader, so he immediately opened it and started reading it. As he looked at it, he frowned in confusion.
"'Yunxiao Sword Technique', mind method, poisoning, annihilation..."
"...Rebirth?!"
"I actually got a new life?!"
"Interesting, interesting..."
Situations similar to this guest are happening in every corner of the capital.
There are three things in the capital: many officials, many rich people, and many literate people.
Not to mention officials and wealthy people, everyone is literate, but in and around the capital, even ordinary people, as long as their families are doing well, will send their children to school to learn a few characters. No one wants to be a waiter.
Because of this, the story of a new storybook was added to the capital's tabloids, and it quickly spread among all walks of life at a speed that could not be matched elsewhere.
The capital's tabloids also understand readers' thoughts very well, and the first print run was 10,000 words.
From when the protagonist Zhao Yunfei met a corpse and picked up a treasure map on his way back from hiking with his friends, to when he returned home and was discovered by his father Zhao Ya to be skipping class, he was punished by a lesson and then punished to kneel in the ancestral hall... and finally the whole family was killed. When Zhao Yunfei woke up again, he found that he was back fifteen days ago, so he was eager to prove to his parents and brothers that he was 'reborn'.
And five days later, it was another 10,000 words.
What these ten thousand words describe is that the Zhao family was "preemptive" at every turn. In the end, not only was the whole family safe, but the man in black robe was also severely injured.
The next 10,000 words are about the protagonist Zhao Yunfei wandering around the world and meeting several friends. The process is full of joy and sorrow, joy and joy. Another 10,000 words is about the plot of Tuoshan. Originally, many people suspected that Chen Lieyang, the ‘Flame Palm’, was the mastermind behind the scenes. He died tragically, causing numerous casualties in the Lieyan Sect.
In another ten thousand words, after Zhao Yunfei and Chen Jing came down the mountain, they encountered a man in black robe who came to snatch the treasure map. In order to avoid the pursuit of the man in black robe, the two were in a panic. Among them, Zhao Yunfei pretended to be an old woman to confuse each other's sight. Fortunately, with the joint efforts of the two of them, the counterattack was successful.
The intense and intense plots follow one after another, and the readers are hooked.
Correspondingly, sales of ‘peripherals’ have also been rising.
In the next half month, there will be another 30,000 words.
These 30,000 words are the fourth and fifth Jinchao plots in the novel. Zhao Yunfei and Chen Jing, who temporarily escaped the pursuit of the men in black robes, rushed all the way to the Miao family.
They first met Mrs. Miao, Chen Jing's grandmother, and then learned from her that the nursery they were looking for was not at home, but lived on a nearby island in the middle of the lake.
So the two of them rushed to the island in the middle of the lake.
Then they found Miao Pu talking to a man! The other party said that the dispersing powder that Miao Pu had made for him had run out, and asked him to make some more.
Dispersing powder?
The two instantly realized that the man was related to the black-robed leader!
Maybe it was the black-robed leader!!
Because during the time when Zhao Yunfei and Chen Jing rushed to the Miao family, the martial arts world was not idle, but major events happened one after another.
Three martial arts families and two gangs were wiped out one after another. They were all elders in the family or had participated in the operation to eliminate the drug cult thirty years ago. Now their families were suddenly attacked, and there were only a few survivors, which made people sigh.
Unfortunately, although Zhao Yunfei and Chen Jing discovered this secret, they were discovered by the other party when they were about to set up a trap to capture each other. The man saw that the situation was not good, and knocked Miao Pu away with a palm, and then got on the boat and escaped. So Zhao Yunfei and Chen Jing had to chase him by boat, and one of them hurried into the house to check whether Miao Pu was alive or dead.
Unfortunately, after a battle, Zhao Yunfei did not leave the people behind, and Miao Pu was also attacked by the opponent's "flame palm" and died of his injuries.
In grief, the two searched Miao Pu's house to see if they could find any clues about the black-robed man.
Then they found several letters and half of the "Poison Sutra".
It turned out that a few years ago, someone had approached Miao Pu, a "master hand" obsessed with poisons, and asked him to improve San Gong San in exchange for half of the "Poison Sutra".
Miao Pu, who was evaluated by Zhao Ya as "a person with a strange temperament, don't offend him", was indeed very strange. He lived in an island in the middle of the lake far away from people all year round, accompanied by snakes, insects, poisonous ants, and various poisonous flowers and plants. Not only did he not want to see outsiders, but even his own family members were rarely seen.
There was no good or evil in his heart, only various poisons, and he would never think about how terrible the consequences would be after the improvement of "San Gong San".
So for that half of the "Poison Sutra", he agreed.
As for why it is "half a book" instead of a whole book, of course it is because Miao Pu had obtained the first half of the "Poison Sutra" from the encirclement and suppression war thirty years ago, and has been studying it carefully over the years, so the latter half has an incomparable charm for him.
After learning the truth, Chen Jing's face turned pale.
"How could this happen..."
"How could this happen?!"
Her father died, and her uncle was an accomplice. Such a result was unacceptable to her.
At this time, Zhao Yunfei, who was standing by the table, picked up a piece of paper and blew the ink on it, and then interrupted her random thoughts.
"Let's go, let's leave here."
"I have drawn the face of that person, and quickly find someone to ask who he is. I always feel that he will be a person who surprises us very much, otherwise he would not always wear a black robe, and every time he appears, he will deliberately change his voice."
"Generally speaking, this kind of person is hiding around us." The strangeness of the black-robed leader was also one of the reasons why Zhao Yunfei suspected that Chen Lieyang was the mastermind.
It just so happened that the person the other party came to see this time was Miao Pu, a partner. In order to gain the other party's trust, he did not wear the iconic black robe, but a casual dress, with his face exposed. This allowed Zhao Yunfei, who was fighting with him, to see clearly that he was a middle-aged man in his forties, younger than his father.
Hearing this, Chen Jing quickly wiped his tears and chased after him.
The last person the two found was Old Lady Miao.
Old Lady Miao was also extremely sad about her son's murder, but when she saw the portrait drawn by Zhao Yunfei, she stood up in astonishment.
"Jin Chong'en!"
"This is Jin Chong'en!!"
Jin Chong'en, that was the first head of the Jin family to be exterminated in the world!
So this is killing 'himself'?
After receiving such news, Zhao Yunfei and Chen Jing looked at each other.
And seeing such a plot, both readers in Liuzhou and readers in Beijing were stunned.
But when they turned to the back, there was no more.
The plot stopped here. Whether it was the Liuzhou tabloid or the Beijing tabloid that printed 3,000 words at a time after the previous plot, there was only one line of big words at the end: "Rebirth of the Treasure Map" storybook is hotly pre-ordered. Whoever pre-orders first can see the finale first.
Readers in both places who were eager to know the next part immediately rushed to the bookstore.
Then, the pre-order contracts flew to Liuzhou like pieces of paper. Especially the hardcover version that started selling earlier than the ordinary version, and with unique sword manuals, character pictures, highlight plot pictures, Chongyun Sword and other gifts, the popularity was beyond Fu Wenyu's imagination.
In Beijing alone, the pre-order volume has exceeded 100 sets!
