Chapter 2 Lottery
Looking at the dense grids and numbers on the turntable, according to the old man's explanation before leaving, it seems that all the combinations of the fourteen brocade boxes have been written on the turntable.
These four hundred and sixty-nine combinations are really dazzling. Bai Fei searched for a long time and finally found the grid filled with fourteen brocade boxes. Although there was only one in 469 chance of winning the ultimate prize, compared with the probability of winning the lottery in the real world, it was I don’t know how much higher it is.
No time, he thought, Bai Fei clasped his hands together and prayed silently. After a while, he pressed hard on the raised dot in the middle of the turntable.
The turntable began to rotate slowly, getting faster and faster. After a while, it finally reached the peak of speed and started to slow down. Bai Fei stared at the pointer of the turntable, his heart beating rapidly.
The pointer finally reached the end, and the speed was very, very slow.
"Walk a little more, walk a little more!"
Seeing the pointer faltering in the grid with only two brocade boxes, Bai Fei was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, because as long as the pointer passed one more grid, there would be the ultimate prize of fourteen brocade boxes waiting for him.
"Stop, stop, stop!"
The pointer did not disappoint him, and finally came to the grid for the ultimate prize. Bai Fei was very excited. He knew that the fourteen brocade boxes the old man left for him. Needless to say, each box would contain an immeasurable wealth. . Unfortunately, the pointer did not stop because of his cry, and finally passed the grid of the ultimate prize and came to the grid with only five boxes.
"Go one more square, go one more square!"
Bai Fei's heart ached for no reason. He knew that the pointer was at the end of its strength, which meant that the ultimate prize was far away from him. But if the pointer could take another step forward, the grid with ten brocade boxes would be enough to comfort him. His turbulent heart.
Hope is beautiful, but reality is cruel. The pointer did not move forward. Bai Fei waited for a long time and finally accepted this cruel reality.
"Five brocade boxes, it's okay, but people's hearts are not as good as snakes swallowing elephants."
After being unhappy for a while, Bai Fei calmed down and thought about it. It was enough to comfort him that he didn't move to the grid of those individual boxes. In fact, what does it matter even if you only transfer to one box? Shouldn't it be more meaningful for people to achieve achievements that are the result of their own blood, sweat, and hard work? In fact, not many people can maintain a calm mind in the face of various temptations.
After Bai Fei calmed down his excited heart, he began to look at the grid and found that there were five groups of numbers, No. 3, No. 5, No. 9, No. 10 and No. 13 written inside. He found that there was no movement on the turntable and brocade box, and suddenly got an idea and prepared to move the pointer with his hand.
Just when his hand was about to touch the pointer, the entire turntable suddenly chirped. After a while, it turned into five rays of light and rushed towards the corresponding five brocade boxes...
】
Standing in front of the No. 3 brocade box, Bai Fei excitedly stretched out his hands and pressed them on the box. The light quickly wrapped around his palms. Soon, the brocade box turned into dots of light, forming six large characters in the air: " The ring restores its vitality." After a while, the six words turned into a beam of light pointing straight into the sky, spreading around in a circle. The sky suddenly returned to what Bai Fei had just seen when he came in, and then a beam of light hit straight down and quickly spread around. The radiation went out, and after a while, the trees were green, the river was clear, and the fragrance of flowers filled the air. Everything returned to its previous beautiful scenery. Although the thatched cottage did not appear again, the comfortable atmosphere finally returned.
"mygod!"
Bai Fei yelled
sound, cheering endlessly.
This is really... there are not many words to describe Bai Fei's mood at this moment. He couldn't wait to come to the No. 5 brocade box, still stretched out his hands to press on the box, and another light still quickly wrapped around his palms, Immediately, the brocade box turned into dots of light, forming four large characters in the air.
"immortal!"
Before Bai Fei could react, the four big characters turned into a beam of light and rushed toward him, pouring in from the top of his head. After Bai Fei was dizzy for a while, he felt as if his whole body was about to explode. After a while, the pain passed, but he found that his whole body was full of energy and felt refreshed and comfortable as he had never felt before.
He had no time to think about it and came to the No. 9 brocade box again. No big characters appeared this time, and the brocade box turned into a beam of light and rushed towards him.
"Come again!..."
Just when Bai Fei was ready to endure the pain again, the beam of light had already entered the top of his head, and a few words suddenly appeared in his mind: Teleportation method, used once every twelve hours, the formula is...
Bai Fei didn't dare to neglect, closed his eyes, and studied silently.
I don't know how long it took, but Bai Fei opened his eyes, and he was completely different from before. It was obvious that he had completely mastered this technique and it had become part of his skill.
He calmed down and came to the No. 10 Brocade Box... This time, the light did not form large characters, nor did it rush towards him. Instead, in the light, a beautiful girl slowly emerged...
"Thank you so much for saving my life, young master!" The girl lightly opened her red lips and whispered like an oriole.
"You... girl, you... are you..." Bai Fei asked hesitantly before he could recover.
"My little daughter Gongsun Lv'e, thank you for rescuing me!"
"Gongsun Lv'e, Gongsun Lv'e... this name is so familiar!"
"Sir, my daughter is leaving. Please take care of yourself. Lu'e will be waiting for your arrival in the Heartless Valley."
"Don't... don't leave first... first!"
The girl looked at him affectionately, then turned into dots of light and dissipated in the air.
"Hey, old man, you really have great powers, but I am getting more and more confused."
While Bai Fei was thinking silently, he couldn't help but come to the brocade box that was finally drawn. This time, among the thousands of lights, a young girl still appeared, dressed in white clothes and looking very heroic. This time, the girl did not dissipate in the air as he expected. Instead, she gathered little bits of light into her body, and finally turned into a living and beautiful girl standing in front of Bai Fei.
"Xiu'er has met your husband." She nodded towards Bai Fei Yingying.
"Ms...sang Gong?"
"Don't be afraid, sir. Grandpa has already told me that he asked us sisters to serve our husband well in the future."
"How many sisters are there?"
"Well, there is one sister, Lu'e, and one sister, Qing. The other two sisters are separated from us. I hope you can find them back in the future."
"Sister Qing?"
"That's her -" the girl pointed at the ice sculpture and said, "Her name is A Qing, and her swordsmanship is very good. Grandpa told me that only you can rescue her from the ice sculpture."
"and you?--"
"My name is Li Wenxiu. My husband can just call me Xiu'er."
"Xiu'er, Xiu'er...Xiu'er, am I really your husband-in-law?" Bai Fei suddenly became excited and held her little hand.
"Well...Xiu'er will listen to her husband obediently from now on..." Li Wenxiu suddenly became shy and murmured.
"Oh, this
Ice sculpture, I still don’t know how to rescue your sister Qing. "
Before Bai Fei finished speaking, the remaining nine brocade boxes suddenly crackled, each brocade box opened, and soon they all turned into dots of light and dissipated in the air.
Li Wenxiu didn't know whether it was intentional or not, but she threw herself into Bai Fei's arms. There was a soft body in Bai Fei's arms, and a fresh and fragrant breath came, which made him feel extremely comfortable and couldn't help but hug her.
In those dissipated peripheral vision, Bai Fei vaguely saw some words such as "Great Perfection Wild Ball Boxing", "Ice Sculpture Breaking Ice", "Reshaping Technique", etc., which were obviously the secrets inside these boxes.
"Alas!" Bai Fei sighed.
"Ms. sir, what's wrong with you?" Li Wenxiu raised her head and asked.
"There is a shortcut to rescue your sister Qing, but it's a pity that I was too unlucky and didn't choose it." Bai Fei said.
Li Wenxiu also saw these words, and felt very sweet in her heart when she saw that Bai Fei had no regrets about using other skills such as "Dzogchen Wild Ball Boxing" and was only thinking about how to rescue his sister Qing.
"It's okay, sir, hard work pays off. We will definitely be able to rescue Sister Qing," she comforted.
"By the way, Xiu'er, can you tell me about your situation?"
"Okay, sir. Both of Xiu'er's parents died when she was young. After I returned to Jiangnan from the Gaochang Labyrinth, I met my grandfather one day, and my grandfather took me into the world of cultivation to learn my skills..."
"Gaochang Maze, where is that?"
"I heard from grandpa that it was the location of Gaochang Kingdom during the Tang Dynasty..."
"Then do you still know the place?"
"Remember, if your husband wants to go, Xiu'er will take him there. But..."
"But what?"
"But the entrance to the maze has been sealed by grandpa with a huge stone. It is difficult to open it without a magic weapon and a force of ten thousand pounds. My husband..."
"I'm just in a hurry. It's better to wait until I have the conditions and ability."
"Xiu'er believes in my husband, he will definitely become the most powerful person in the world."
"Thank you Xiu'er. There is no resting place here. It seems we should go out together."
"Um."
The two came to the ice sculpture, took a look at the girl inside, and said goodbye.
"Sister Qing, Xiu'er will definitely assist your husband to rescue you as soon as possible." Li Wenxiu muttered silently.
After Bai Fei and Li Wenxiu came out of the ring space, they had something to eat and went to rest.
Although Bai Fei is already his husband-in-law, the girl is shy after all, but Bai Fei's mind is not on this point now. Although the two of them are in the same room, they are not in the same bed after all.
The night passed.
Early the next morning, the two left the house.
"Mr. Sir, wait." Bai Fei was about to leave when Li Wenxiu suddenly said.
"What's wrong?" Bai Fei asked.
Li Wenxiu didn't say anything, but pointed to the small house in front of her, and then pointed to the ring on Bai Fei's finger.
"Xiu'er is still smart." Bai Fei immediately understood what she meant. Without saying much, he began to recite the mantra silently. A gust of breeze swept past, and the house in front of him disappeared. It seemed that it had been moved into the ring space as a whole.
Bai Fei used this technique for the first time and was so surprised that it had such an effect.
"Let's go, sir." Li Wenxiu said with amusement in her heart.
"Yeah, okay." Bai Fei responded.
