My book friend Long Aotian

Chapter 101 Books for Beautiful Girls

Time flies, and two more days have passed.

A new tomb was built in the ancestral land of the Wu family in Lin County.

This ordinary family in a county began to rise when Wu Wei withdrew from the sect and returned to his hometown to establish the Tiexian Sect. After decades, the Tiexian Sect was promoted to a Class-B sect and became a powerful family in the county. As a result, the Wu family also became a major family in the county, and their words carried a lot of weight in the surrounding area.

And today, this family has achieved glory that is unimaginable for even the top three sects.

The coffin was carried by Jie Yuanlang, Xiong Duozhu, Feng Xianwei and others. When it was buried, all the fairies in Baihua Valley came to pay their respects.

The one with higher status was a kind old man dressed as a landlord. The county magistrate served him trembling with fear and sweating profusely. Soon, the old man's identity spread like wildfire.

He was a high-ranking official who retired as prime minister.

Later, a dusty but noble man came on horseback.

He was seen dismounting from a distance, carrying a box wrapped in a bundle and walking towards the direction of the new grave. There were many worshippers and onlookers blocking their way, so he smiled, nodded, and gave them an imploring look, and the crowd dispersed on their own accord, making way for him and watching him pass by.

The man first nodded and greeted the Fairy of Baihua Valley, Li Bailong and others present, then exchanged a few words with the Prime Minister, and then walked towards Asheng's grave.

The county magistrate who was carefully serving at the side had his eyes wide open, and he could not stand steadily and fell directly to the ground.

The common people watched from afar, feeling puzzled. Then they saw the rich prince walk straight forward, put the package in his hand on the ground, hold Old Man Wu with both hands, whisper solemnly, and bow.

Then he bowed to the family members and Asheng's elders present one by one, and finally went to pay homage to Asheng. After the worship, he untied the package he brought and opened the box inside.

People suppressed their exclamations.

Inside was a nitrate-coated human head with a clear face and an expression of fear and despair.

The man bowed to Ah Sheng again, and his Yuan Qi turned into true fire, with a blazing light that burned the sacrifice to ashes. The dragon veins, royal blood, wealth and glory quickly turned into faint black air and scattered into dust between heaven and earth.

The confusion on Wu Wei's face finally turned into astonishment.

After doing all this, the man spoke and bowed to Wu Wei, then said goodbye to everyone one by one. The crowd parted like young bamboos, watching him leave with an indescribable awe.

They didn't start whispering and guessing each other's identities until the other person disappeared from their sight.

Later, when this man entered Lin County, held court, thoroughly investigated Feng Lin's atrocities, dealt with the aftermath of Lin County, and apologized and compensated the innocent people one by one, the people realized that he was King Zhao.

Only after the nobles from Baihua Valley and Lingyu Sect had left one by one did the common people dare to step forward to pay their respects.

There was an endless stream of people coming, some came sincerely, some out of curiosity, some simply to express regret, and some who were well-informed and knew that Tiexianmen had made the right bet, so they came to make friends.

No matter who the visitor was or what his intention was, Wu Wei and others would bow and express their gratitude.

After death, everything is empty, but the living's complicated rules and regulations are not meaningless. Every mourning, every worship, and every consolation will temporarily comfort the family's sadness.

After all, all the experiences in life together weave together the remembrance of the funeral. At this time, Asheng’s family will know that that short and innocent life has finally left its mark in this world.

Wu Wei stood aside, silently looking at the people passing by. Each face was sincere and full of regret.

He remembered Li Bailong's promise, the few words from the Grand Minister of Agriculture, and the token left by the emperor's uncle. The Tiexian Sect had been stuck at the checkpoint of the second-class sect for a long time, but now it had hope of making the leap to the dragon gate.

But the price is really too high.

The old man suddenly thought of many days ago, when he took Ah Sheng to the government office to receive the imperial grain and military feast, and met Li Bailong who came to look for County Magistrate Feng. He asked Ah Sheng to kowtow, but the child refused. Afterwards, he was so confident that he wanted to win the other party's eyes with his pride and achievements instead of bowing down to him.

He said that it is called, don't bully the young because they are poor.

Wu Wei didn't say much at the time, but he still sighed inwardly that the naive young man was ignorant of the world, and that life in the world was difficult, not as easy as in the books... However, time has passed, things have changed, and now everything is different.

He got what he had always dreamed of, but lost his Ah Sheng forever.

For a moment, he was overwhelmed with emotions, and after the drum broke, the old man burst into tears again.

Ah Sheng, I didn't expect that.

You kowtowed for Grandpa...

Boss Chen Botang also came to pay his respects.

In addition to paper money, incense and candles, he also burned many vernacular novels, including the hardcover collector's edition of "Legend of Huangji Zhantian", all of which are the store's best-sellers.

"Goodbye, sir! From now on, if you have any good books, our shop will definitely deliver them to you."

Including the sequel to "Legend of Huangji Zhantian"... as long as that deceased dares to continue submitting works.

Thinking of this, Boss Chen felt a little headache.

He finally got home the day before yesterday, and the bookstore was sealed and searched by Fenglin Huoshan. It was a mess. Fortunately, the Fenglin warriors were arrogant and disdainful of looting property, so all the property was intact.

However, the original manuscripts of the first four volumes of "Legend of Huangji Zhantian" that he had secretly hidden away were missing.

After searching for it for a long time, I couldn't find it, and I didn't dare to report the matter to the police, so I just let it go.

But Boss Chen didn't know that this precious author's manuscript was right at his fingertips, but it was buried deep in the ground and hidden in a coffin, and would become an eternal mystery and secret for future generations.

After paying his respects, he chatted with Wu Wei and others for a few words and gave his seat to others. Boss Chen did not come here alone, he also brought some new friends.

Those people also came up to pay their respects, and their attitude was quite respectful.

However, they all had some scars on their faces, showing some lingering fear of the catastrophe. The people in the Wu family could see clearly that these people seemed to be businessmen doing book business in the county.

Finally, Boss Chen took them away and left in a mixed double-powered carriage.

Carriages and horses rumbled by, and inside the spacious carriage, Chen Baitang sat in the first seat, looking at his fellow passengers in two rows with a deep gaze - these cheap idiots had all pirated copies of Chen's bookstore to some extent, cutting off his source of income, which was equivalent to a mortal enemy who had killed his father and mother.

Boss Chen even considered placing an order on [Is He Dead]

But within a dozen days, the situation changed.

These "friendly merchants" were first arrested one by one by Boss Chen using Jie Yuanlang's power to avenge their grievances. Later, when the Fenglin Incident occurred, they became scapegoats and suffered countless punishments.

Now, Boss Chen has returned to Lin County for two days, and his identity has changed.

In the eyes of Chen Baitang, the owner of Chen's Bookstore, the minor disputes in the past were indeed bitter and irreconcilable, but in the eyes of Murdoch Chen, the media tycoon of Da Qi, they were nothing.

"I have said a lot of things that need to be said in the past two days. I think that for a few of us, competing for a small market of only more than 10,000 people in Lin County, what is the future?"

"Now that I am valued by Jie Yuanlang, I am asked to go to Huazhou to develop a career. I have been thinking hard, fearing that I will fail to live up to the trust. I feel that I am alone and cannot do it alone, so I ask all my fellow townsmen to help me establish a publishing group with fellow townsmen from this county as the core, so that we can go to Huazhou together and create a career!"

Boss Chen glanced around and sneered, "We have fought for so many years, and I know all your evil methods. From now on, you can use such evil ideas on outsiders!"

Everyone was embarrassed.

"Since you've agreed, we'll sign the contract today and start preparing for the opening of a store in Huazhou tomorrow."

Chen Baitang lifted the curtain and saw that the carriage was not stopping. It was already quite far away from Ah Sheng's grave. Talking now would not disturb the young man's spirit.

Then his eyes turned cold and he looked around.

"After we go to Huazhou, we will no longer be enemies in the same industry. We are all upright people from Linxian County. We must work together and do a great cause. Let me be frank with you. If anyone rebels and harms our own people, or engages in piracy and counterfeiting..."

Boss Chen opened his eyes wide and uttered angelic and witty words.

"—I'll fuck your mother hard!"

At this moment, Li Bailong was seeing someone off.

After the Feng Lin incident was resolved in the past two days, several giants including the Emperor's Uncle, the Grand Minister of Agriculture and Zhang Zhenren jointly supported Li Bailong and cleared his name. All suspicions of being a demon sect in "Legend of the Emperor's Battle of Heaven" were completely cleared.

This meant that Mu Qingge's investigation mission was meaningless. At this point, no one cared whether Long Batian was related to the Demon Sect.

The Six Gates urgently summoned Mu Qingge back because the little guy was the only witness among the Six Gates to the fight between Feng Lin and Ling Yu, and the top brass of the Six Gates were eager to know the full picture of the situation.

And they were eager to remove Liushenmen from this major event.

"I have caused you a lot of trouble these days, but I haven't been able to help you at all."

“It has helped a lot.”

Mu Qingge talked a lot of private words with her third uncle, and then came to say goodbye to Li Bailong. The drastic changes in the second half were definitely not something a female constable could control, but she was involved in it and witnessed many things that she was powerless to do anything about.

Li Bailong looked at the girl's pretty face and sighed.

When the manuscript was to be submitted that night, this guy suddenly appeared out of nowhere, which marked the horrific beginning of his social death and made him quite embarrassed. But then again, if the little cop hadn't come and meddle in his business, perhaps the Fenglin Huoshan net would have been silently cast down, and it would have been even more troublesome to deal with it then.

The world is ever-changing, complex and disorderly, who can tell?

Mu Qingge said softly: "It's a pity that I still couldn't save Ah Sheng."

At that time, she was alone in Lin County and could not stand up. She wrote to Xiong Jingyan and Li Bailong for help, but it was too late. Ah Sheng's drumming was her last hope. As long as she could throw the Lingyu Sect's token to Ah Sheng, she could trigger the Lingyu Sect's protection mechanism... Unfortunately, the token was knocked down by the prince.

After all, the royal family wanted to see the joke of beating the drums.

"Senior brother."

"Ok?"

"I was born in a family of six gates. I have been exposed to too many injustices since I was a child. I knew early on that the courage, justice, kindness and righteousness advocated in books are always a little hypocritical."

"I have never been interested in upholding justice and righteousness. I only think that the Six Gates are just a tool of the court. However, I am even more unwilling to marry, so I decided to rely on the protection of my father and brother and live a mediocre life in the Six Gates."

"My father and brother couldn't stand my ignorant life at such a young age, and they thought my ideas were just perverse. My brother said that after reading a few files and learning some laws, I thought I had seen through human nature and could criticize and judge at will, which was a taboo in the Six Gates. He said that although the law was established by the court, my generation should use it to uphold justice. The way of heaven is clear, and there will always be worthy people under the blue sky."

"I disdained it and just muddled through the day, but they forced me to run errands and do the work, otherwise they would fire me. This time the job in Lin County is neither light nor heavy, neither dangerous nor frivolous, and they think it is very suitable for me... I didn't expect to meet a considerate senior brother who let me have a great time. I really want to continue living like this. Even someone is helping me think about the investigation report."

"..."

Li Bailong's expression was a little subtle.

Ever since Bai Xingxiang attacked, he had been on guard against the little guy, and felt that the other party was not that simple.

Mu Qingge smiled and said to herself, "I didn't expect that later... Alas, Bai Xingxiang, Ah Sheng, and you, brother, everyone made a choice that went against the world, everyone paid a price, and everyone was so stupid, but... there are actually people like you in the world..."

She looked at Li Bailong with a complicated look and a sigh.

"And, someone survived after all."

Li Bailong remained silent.

"Look, why am I saying this?"

Mu Qingge rubbed her face and showed a familiar smile: "Anyway, Junior Sister has to say goodbye. I heard that Senior Brother has a new job. One day, we can meet in the capital."

She took out something from her body, which was a sealed official document.

"After this drastic change, this item is no longer meaningful. I leave it to you as a souvenir."

Li Bailong opened it and took a quick look. It turned out to be Mu Qingge's work report. It was indeed meaningless... The Six Gates would never seal the files and keep such things.

Only after listening to the secret report would he order Mu Qingge to keep it secret.

Mu Qingge smiled and said, "Brother, it's best to look at this thing when you're alone."

She said this with a graceful smile, and got on the carriage. The driver waved his whip and the carriage headed north. She could also see the junior sister sticking her head out of the carriage and waving from afar.

Li Bailong also waved, and when the carriage drove away, he opened the document in his hand.

The first half was edited by Li Bailong for Mu Qingge, but it was later filled with comments and red circles.

The second half was written by Mu Qingge himself, from facts to reasoning.

The analysis was well-articulated and logical, and although it was not pointed out, even the newly appointed Prime Minister Haq could see that there was a huge problem with someone in this action report.

Damn little slut.

Li Bailong closed the document and just smiled.

At this point, Feng Lin’s crisis has been resolved, and with the endorsement of the three giants, the risk of his identity being exposed no longer exists, and no one will embarrass themselves by mentioning this matter anymore.

For him, the only concern about his identity being exposed was his social demise in front of his senior teachers.

But he is about to go to Huazhou, and he has the hope of being in charge of the Education Department and becoming a giant in Lintai. As time goes by, the elders will trust and rely on him more.

This kind of thing doesn’t really matter.

Besides...

He watched the carriage gradually disappearing into the horizon and smiled softly.

In the carriage, Mu Qingge looked around. The gifts from Baihua Valley filled half of the carriage. There were various rare treasures from Tianyi Pavilion, crazy cute dolls, and several lifelike, dreamy and beautiful paintings.

Happiness.

She folded up a scroll and her eyes suddenly focused. There was a booklet under the scroll.

The court official took it out curiously, opened it, and his face darkened.

When the private sects are hunting down the corruption investigation team, they will definitely leave relevant account book evidence.

The evidence even includes the fingerprints of Mrs. Song, beauty bloggers, and photography bloggers.

spit.

The little guy made a "pooh" sound and then laughed helplessly.

She put the booklet away and put it aside. Recalling this period of time, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. After thinking for a while, she took out another book from her luggage. It was "Legend of Huangji Zhantian".

Open and turn the page.

After a while, a faint sigh was heard from the carriage.

"Sure enough..." She chuckled, "I still can't bear to watch it."

Mu Qingge threw the imperial book aside and took out another one. It was beautifully written and bound, far better than "The Legend of Huangji Zhantian". The cover was embroidered with orchids and bamboos, and there was also a portrait of a woman looking up at the stars, with the three words "Langhuan Zhuan" written on it.

She leaned beautifully in the arms of the huge cloth doll, squinted her eyes, opened the book, and after reading for a while, she smiled with a sense of immersion.

Sure enough, this is the kind of book that beautiful girls should read.

Her movements became increasingly lazier, and she lay on her back in the doll's arms, her eyes fixed on the book, holding it high, revealing the last page cover, which was also stamped with a seal.

"Published by Huazhou Yunjiang Bookstore."
