Fuyao Kingdom, Canglang City.
As the largest island country in the vast East China Sea, the prosperous scenery here is not inferior to that of Kyushu in the Yu Dynasty. The difference may be that there were no fewer than ten large cities like the Yu Dynasty, while the entire Fuyao Kingdom could only support one Canglang City. Except for the capital, there are farmlands everywhere outside the city.
But no matter what, the prosperity of Canglang City is amazing enough.
In the famous Flower Tower in the city, in a three-story private room, behind a thin curtain, Chu Liang and Lin Bei were speechless.
"Can you appreciate it?" Chu Liang's eyelids drooped, "I can't anyway."
There is a high platform in the hall of the Flower Tower, and a group of dancers are performing on it at the moment. These dancers are all wearing splendid golden and white heavy skirts, with strange and distinctive styles.
But their faces were all covered with a thick layer of white powder and bright red lips. You may not notice any difference when looking at it from a distance, but under the outstanding eyesight of practitioners, it is somewhat scary.
"That's all for this crappy place." Lin Bei also lost interest, "No wonder Miss Xue and the others didn't come."
He was wearing a large navy blue robe and holding a round fan, looking like a local from Fuyao. There were also two glasses of sake on the table, as well as some various snacks... There were many styles, but there was really nothing delicious.
During this trip to Fuyao, Chu Liang came to help with the investigation at the invitation of Xue Lingxue.
If you just want to cancel this performance, then Nanyinfang just needs to take the initiative to release the news that there is no tour at all, so that everyone will not be fooled.
But if this is the case, it will be more difficult to catch the mysterious person pretending to be Xue Lingxue, and the problem will not be completely solved.
Therefore, Nanyinfang did not make any announcement, but prepared to come here secretly to check the situation.
If Xue Lingxue wants to invite a seventh-level master from her sect to assist, she can naturally do so. It's just that Chu Liang's intelligence is widely recognized in the world of immortality. It would definitely be better to invite him than the masters of the sect.
The first sect of Yun Dynasty had something to do and did not go with them. This trip was supposed to be Chu Liang, Xue Lingxue and Miss Iron Hammer.
However, when Lin Bei heard that Chu Liang was going to Fuyao Country, he immediately said: "What a coincidence! I have a friend in Fuyao Country, and he happened to invite me to be a guest. Since you are going too, why don't we go together."
Chu Liang was already accustomed to Lin Bei's wide acquaintances. He showed his talent before entering the Foreign Affairs Hall back then. Later, as the leader of the Four Overlords in Shushan, he had to deal with people even more. Moreover, most of them took the initiative to make friends with him, and since he was always loyal, it was natural that he had friends all over the world.
Nowadays, Lin Bei is no longer the young boy he once was. It is not an exaggeration to say that "Shushan Hu Baoyi, red cotton and timely rain" can be said about his status in the world.
The friend who invited him to Canglang City this time was the head of a local wealthy family, who had gone to Hongmian Peak to discuss cooperation.
Thanks to him, the few people received warm hospitality as soon as they arrived. A large courtyard has been prepared for them to live in the city. They also made an appointment to watch a performance at the Flower Tower in the evening.
All kinds of elegant things have always been popular in Fuyao Kingdom, which is known as the "Land of Wind, Flowers, Snow and Moon", and singing and dancing arts are especially respected.
Therefore, the reputation of Nanyinfang, which specializes in this art, is comparable to that of the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect in Fuyao. It is a pity that the disciples of Nanyinfang have never cared about this East China Sea island country and have never performed here.
Because of this, the news of Xue Lingxue's tour this time caused quite a stir in Fuyao.
…
"Brother Lin Bei! Oh, this must be the world-famous Young Master Chu! I have admired him for a long time!"
Not long after, a middle-aged man with a slim figure and a mustache came up and greeted the two of them as soon as they entered the private room.
"Hefeng Family Master." Chu Liang and Lin Bei also stood up to greet him.
The He family is one of the few big families in Fuyao. They have businesses in spiritual plants, spiritual beasts, elixirs, magic weapons, etc., so they have a close connection with Hongmian Peak.
"Brother Lin Bei and I met so late that I invited him to play in Canglang City a long time ago." After the greetings, Zefeng sat down and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that even Young Master Chu would come with me this time. I am really honored. .”
"Really?" Chu Liang also smiled: "I was worried that I would not be popular in Fuyao Congress."
This is not a lie, from Emperor Nv Feng to Chu Liang, the Yinjianfeng lineage can be regarded as the old enemy of Fuyao Kingdom.
"Hmm..." Hefeng pondered for a moment and said: "It is true that a small number of people in our country in Fuyao don't like Chu Shaoxia very much, but you won based on strength in the first place and won openly. Naturally, all reasonable people will be convinced."
With that said, he turned his head and asked Lin Bei: "Brother Lin Bei, what do you think of my Fuyao national song and dance?"
"Hey, hey, hey!" Lin Beilang laughed and replied: "Fuyao is indeed a land of romance, and this dancer's performance... has a unique flavor."
Looking at the pale faces, he hesitated for a while.
"Brother Lin Bei, don't be ridiculous. Compared with the singers and dancers of the Yu Dynasty, the singers and dancers of our Fuyao Kingdom can't be on the stage." Hefeng chuckled and said: "But I invited you here today because there will be a meeting later. The Dragon Dancer’s performance.”
"Dragon Dancer?" Chu Liang didn't know what it was.
After Hefeng explained for a while, the two of them knew.
It turns out that "Dragon" is the highest title for a dancing girl in the Fuyao Kingdom, and the person known as the Dragon Dancer is the strongest dancer in the country in recent years.
"The best dancer in Fuyao Country is definitely worth looking forward to." Lin Bei responded immediately.
The three of them chatted here, and then there were singers singing and musicians playing on the stage, all of whom were very skilled. However, as Xianmen disciples who were used to seeing Nanyinfang's performances, Chu Liang and Lin Bei were not very touched by this.
After a while, until all the performers on the stage had dispersed, the atmosphere suddenly became warm.
There were already excited cheers from all around, calling for the arrival of Dragon Dancer. It seemed that she was quite popular in Fuyao.
"oh--"
Following a burst of shouts, a long colorful gauze suddenly fell from the top of the Flower Tower. The long gauze landed in the center of the stage, and suddenly seemed to be swept up by a whirlwind. It circled in place for several weeks, dazzling the audience.
In the blink of an eye, the long veil turned into a waterfall-like long skirt with water sleeves, appearing on a woman with a slender figure and well-proportioned bones.
This woman's skin is exquisite and translucent, and her eyebrows are full of ripples. The face is cool and soft, and the figure is just right. Nothing more or less is not beautiful.
If she appeared alone, she would be a rare beauty; but when she appeared after those weird faces just now, she was even more stunning in the world.
"Dragon Dancer!" Lin Bei immediately joined the crowd shouting around her.
Chu Liang sat calmly and just admired it quietly. Although he and Jiang Yuebai are separated from each other, the word "manly virtue" is always in his heart.
After the cheers all around subsided, the Dragon Dancer on the stage gently nodded to thank the audience, then waved her sleeves and began her performance.
For practitioners, as long as they reach the first state, their body's flexibility and coordination will far exceed that of ordinary people, and there are no movements that cannot be performed. Therefore, ordinary dance rhythms are not easy to impress.
However, the dance of this Dragon Dancer is extremely smooth. From the first movement, it seems to hit a certain node that communicates with heaven. There seems to be some strange magic power between the waist and limbs, which can make people intoxicated. .
It's like some kind of illusion cast through dance, but it doesn't do any harm.
"Sure enough, he has some skills." Chu Liang nodded.
After reaching the seventh realm, his understanding of the Tao became deeper and deeper, and he could not help but look at everything in the world with a "Tao-seeking" perspective. This is also a common problem for every strong person in the Seventh Realm. They habitually look for every opportunity that may lead to enlightenment. Maybe this is the meaning of the "Asking" realm.
Just as the audience was gradually becoming quiet and intoxicated during the Dragon Dancer's performance, a sudden exclamation came from outside: "Ah!"
Then there was a loud bang!
boom--
A black shadow appeared through the floor, snatched Long Wuji away out of thin air, and then broke through the floor on the other side.
But in an instant, the Dragon Dancer who was performing on the high stage just now disappeared in front of everyone.
All that was left was a place filled with evil spirits.
After being stunned for a moment, the first shout came from the crowd: "Dragon Dancer has been kidnapped!"
