Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety-Four: Maha's Subtle Mind, Sanyak Sanbodhi.
Luo Li withdrew his cold gaze, reached into his sleeve, and rubbed a cold thing wrapped around his arm.
The thing immediately started to squirm slightly.
A triangular snake head, the size of a broad bean and the color of ice and snow, quietly poked out from the girl's sleeve.
The green snake is as green as water, swallowing and swallowing silently.
An extremely cold breath spreads out lightly.
This is an "ice snake" as thin as a finger, but it is already a seventh-level monster!
This thing is a rare species of blood. Its cold poison is something even a sixth-grade master can't bear.
It is one of several seventh-level monsters that Luo Li has tamed. Because of its small body, it has become the only monster that Luo Li carries with him.
"Bing'er go back." Luo Li ordered gently.
The little ice snake immediately retracted into its sleeve obediently.
"Li'er, let's go into the city." Su Chuo glanced at Luo Li's little ice snake and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, although Li'er is young, she has the same tolerant temperament as her brother, and is not an impulsive person.
Jinguan City has a huge population, prosperous industries, and a mixture of fish and dragons. It is a place of wealth, aristocrats, and a world-famous place.
The two entered the bustling Jinguan City, and Su Chuo couldn't help but look at the location of Dongcheng.
That's where the Su family's mansion is.
She is actually no stranger to Jinguan City. When she was a child, when she was the legitimate daughter of the Su family, she often played in the city with her brother.
However, Jinguan City is too big, and she has never been to many places herself.
The two of them walked for several miles in Qinle Lane, which is lined with shops. Su Chuo suddenly pointed at a street house with red walls and said with a nostalgic tone:
"Li'er, that's the Mujia Theater, the largest theater troupe in Yizhou."
"When I was young, my brother and I came here several times to watch plays. The plays performed by the Mujiaban were really good, just like a dream in a wonderland."
"People from Jingzhou, Liangzhou, and even Yongzhou made a special trip to Jinguan City to watch the performances of the Mujia Troupe."
"A hundred years ago, the Empress Dowager also came here to watch a play."
"Unlike Tubo, the status of actors in Daxia is very low. But even so, the Mu family is not just any ordinary actor. Even the major forces in Yizhou will give the Mu family some face."
"If our Luo family class can be like the Mu family class, then it won't be a waste of time to act."
"Your brother's performance is already very good. The Tibetan people say that he can perform Rainbow Clouds. But compared with the Mu family, there is still a gap."
Su Chuo came to the Mujia Theater in Qinle Lane, of course, not to watch a show, but because...
The treasures that Lu Pianpian hid back then were buried in the Muji Theater.
When Luo Li heard this, he couldn't help but look forward to it, "Is it true? It's been a long time since I watched my brother's performance. I was cheering for him in my dreams."
"Is the Mujiaban's drama really that good? Then let's just go and watch it. I have money!"
"Okay!" Su Chuo smiled, took Luo Li's hand, and walked towards the red-walled theater.
Suddenly Lu Pianpian's voice sounded: "Su Chuo, what are you doing? Why are you going there during the day?"
Su Chuo secretly said: "Take Li'er to watch a show! Don't you want to watch it?"
"What a fart! Are you watching a ghost perform?" Lu Pianpian said.
"You haven't been to Jinguan City for many years, right? Hey, as early as eight years ago, the Muji Theater was destroyed."
"Otherwise, where would I put the thing?"
"What? The Mujiaban was wiped out?" Su Chuo couldn't help but stop and let go of Luo Li's hand.
Lu Pianpian said: "Isn't that right? The leader, disciples, protagonists, supporting roles, supporting actors, including family members, are all dead."
"The two to three hundred people in the entire theater were all killed overnight."
"The leader of the class, Mu Xianling, was raped and killed. She died miserably and was hung on the stage without any trace of her hair."
"It's a pity that famous actors have been tabooed by heaven since ancient times. Muxian Ling was probably the most powerful female actor in Daxia, but she died like this."
"All the pretty female actors in the shogunate troupe were raped and killed. The male actors had their eyes gouged out and their tongues cut out, and they died in the same miserable way."
Su Chuo couldn't help but clench his hands and shuddered all over, "Who is so cruel? The Mu family's opera troupe is just opera singers, why did it bring about the disaster of annihilation?"
The murderer is too cruel and vile.
Lu Pianpian said: "I don't know. Although the Mujiaban are opera singers, they are very rare monk actors, not ordinary actors."
"Since you are a monk, you will offend powerful enemies."
"After the shogunate clan was wiped out, this theater became a place of great danger."
"At night, it's so gloomy that strangers don't come near, and even the monks don't dare to go in."
"So, I simply put that thing in the Tokugawa Theater so that it would not be easily discovered."
Su Chuo was still a little puzzled, "Although ordinary people don't dare to enter the Muji Theater, it is still very popular in the bustling city. When it comes to hiding things, it can't be compared to the barren mountains."
"Why don't you hide that treasure in an inaccessible mountain forest instead of hiding it in the city?"
Lu Pianpian explained: "There are a lot of things to pay attention to when hiding treasures. For example, if you borrow the power of divine Gu, you can only raise it in the cold pool. This treasure must be hidden in a bustling city."
"The Bakke Theater is located in a busy city and is very popular, but most people don't dare to go in. It is the best place to store that treasure."
Su Chuo understood immediately, "Is it a treasure of fireworks and red dust? Is it a statue of a god?"
Lu Pianpian said: "You will know when you dig it out."
"Don't do anything during the day. That thing is big and can be easily discovered during the day. This is Jinguan City and there are many monks."
"You can find an inn now and wait until dark. As soon as it gets dark, I will do it myself."
At night, it is she who dominates the body.
Su Chuo frowned slightly, "Is it dangerous? Let me tell you first, I won't let Li'er take risks together."
"Hee." Lu Pianpian said, "The Shogun Theater is eerie and scary, even for ordinary monks."
"But now we have at least the fifth-grade perfect strength and a powerful life-saving magic weapon."
"Luo Li himself is a seventh-grade perfect person, and he also has my long-life lock to protect him, as well as a seventh-grade perfect poisonous snake monster."
"With so many things to rely on, what are you worried about? You are so cowardly."
"If the Shogun Theater is really that dangerous, will the big shots in the city not care about it? This is Jinguan City."
Su Chuo thought about it and was still a little worried. He decided not to take Luo Li to the Muji Theater.
She is different from Lu Pianpian, who is bold and adventurous.
She has always been a cautious person, at least she doesn't want to take Luo Li to take risks.
"Li'er, it suddenly occurred to me that the Mu family class had been wiped out a long time ago." Su Chuo said to Luo Li.
"So we can't see it as a show, so let's forget it."
Luo Li suddenly looked disappointed.
It turns out that the Mujia class is gone.
"Then where should we go now? Find an inn to stay in first?" Li'er asked.
The reason why she insisted on coming to Jinguan City was to see the world and broaden her horizons.
Su Chuo pointed to an inn not far away, "Let's go to Qingyun Inn. That's a first-class hotel."
"Let's get a room and settle down first, and then you can stay in the room."
"What about you?" Luo Li heard that Su Chuo or Lu Pianpian had to do something.
Su Chuo said: "Lu Pianpian is going to get the treasure. You are not needed there. I can go alone."
Luo Li shook his head, "That's not possible. I want to go with you. I also want to know what kind of treasure it is."
Su Chuo said sternly: "Sister Li'er, it's better for you to stay at the inn. I have perfect fifth-grade strength, so even if I run away, it will be much more convenient."
"There may be some unknown dangers in that place. I don't want you to..."
Luo Li smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll just listen to you. Who said you might be my sister-in-law?"
"I don't have to go. But I have a condition."
Su Chuo was a little helpless, "You say."
Luo Li's face became serious, "You must tell me where to go to get the treasure. If you don't come back for a long time, I should know where you are in danger."
Su Chuo thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll tell you, it's at the Makuya Theater."
"If I haven't come back in the early hours of the morning, I'm probably in danger. You must not go looking for me then."
"If something happens to Lu Pianpian and I, it will be even more dangerous for you to go. It won't help the situation at all, but you will get yourself involved."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'm not stupid." Luo Li said with a smile, "If you haven't come back by early morning, I will pay a master to rescue you."
Su Chuo then nodded and said: "Yes. If I don't return in the early morning, you can go directly to the Xuanwu Escort Agency on An Street nearby and pay the first-class escorts from the agency to take action."
"The Xuanwu Escort Agency is very powerful and has a good reputation in the world. It will do things well when it is paid..."
As Su Chuo explained, he led Luo Li to the entrance of the tall and gorgeous Qingyun Inn.
"Two young ladies, do you want to stay in a hotel or stay in a hotel?" The guest at the inn at the gate immediately greeted the guests with a smile.
With a quick glance, he knew that the two guests were monks and wealthy.
Even if the guests can't see the face, they can still tell the difference between rich and poor.
Su Chuo said directly: "We are staying in a hotel. We want to open a Tianzihao hotel with a suite and a third-grade micro array."
As expected, Su Chuo was born in the Su family and had extraordinary vision.
The room with the third-grade micro-formation is already the most expensive and top-notch equipped room in Jinguan City.
The only thing better than this kind of room is the private cave of a big shot.
The receptionist's eyes lit up, "Our hotel also has a sky-high guest room with a third-grade micro-formation. Of course, the price..."
Having said this, he looked at the two female guests again.
It seemed that they were evaluating whether the two of them would be willing to stay in the Tianzihao guest room.
Even rich people may not really be willing to spend that much money.
Therefore, although many people ask about Tianzihao rooms, most of them will give up when they hear the price.
Luo Li's chest puffed up, "Hurry up! How much does it cost?"
The receptionist felt relieved, opened his hand and said:
"It's not too expensive, ten thousand taels of gold a night, uh, it can also be a hundred spiritual stones, haha."
What?
Luo Li suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Ten thousand taels of gold...one night?
It’s too expensive!
Even if she made a fortune, she would still be reluctant to spend 10,000 taels of gold to stay in a luxury guest room for one night.
After all, she has been through hardships since she was a child.
"Okay, ten thousand is ten thousand." Su Chuo said without hesitation, "We want it!"
Compared with Luo Li's safety, she doesn't care about ten thousand gold.
When she went to retrieve the treasure, she would have to leave for at least half a day. Luo Li was alone in the inn, so of course he had to be safe.
This is also because although Su Chuo left the Su family long ago, he is still like our young lady in his heart.
Now that she has money, she is good at spending money.
Soon, Su Chuo took out a hundred spiritual stones and paid the rent.
The Tianzihao guest room is located at the highest point of Qingyun Inn. It is actually a luxurious meditation room with rich spiritual energy.
Outside is a three-grade micro array, which is very safe. Inside there are high-grade spiritual tea, spiritual wine, spiritual food, and everything else.
Standing on the window sill, you can release your spiritual consciousness unscrupulously and overlook the entire Jinguan City.
Su Chuo looked at the Muji Theater not far away and found that it was covered with thorns and overgrown weeds and had been abandoned for many years.
The embroidery households in the Red Mansion back then had long since lost their vitality and looked particularly desolate among the decaying grass and withered poplars.
As the sun sets in the west, the entire Shokaku Theater is filled with dusk and gloomy atmosphere, exuding an ominous atmosphere.
Su Chuo felt in a trance. All the decay in front of him seemed to turn into the lanterns of the past, when the lanterns were lit and the seats were full of friends.
Amid the sound of silk and bamboo gongs and drums, a woman in a Xiapei costume was waving her sleeves on the stage in a graceful and fairylike manner.
She sings in a clear voice, and her every move, every smile and every frown captivates the world and confuses all sentient beings.
Her clear shadow is like a bright moon, her voice is like the most beautiful poem in the world, her breath is like flying flowers all over the sky, her grace is beyond compare.
The artistic conception she creates is like a dream, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, making people wonder what night it is.
On that stage, she was the ever-changing fairy in the sky.
"Everyone! Aya!"
"color!"
Thunderous cheers sounded, and the whole theater was filled with lights and the sky was filled with excitement...
"Sister-in-law, what are you thinking about?" Luo Li's voice sounded, "Why are you so lost in thought?"
Su Chuo smiled and said, "I remember the grand occasion of watching a play in the Mujia Theater. The Mujia Theater at that time was really a grand scene in Jinguan City."
Luo Li looked at Su Chuo's expression and suddenly asked:
"Sister-in-law, you don't know anyone from the Mu family class, do you? Why do I feel that you are not reminiscing about old things, but like reminiscing about old friends?"
Su Chuo sighed slightly, his eyes complex.
"Yes, I know the leader of the curtain team. Her name is Mu Xianling. She is an old friend of mine. Unexpectedly, she has been in trouble for eight years."
She didn't tell Luo Li how tragic Mu Xianling's death was. It was the most tragic and undignified way for a woman to die.
"I'm hungry, let's eat." Luo Li said, "I want to eat fried whitebait, steamed duck..."
After a while, the store delivered sumptuous dishes. Luo Li ate heartily and his belly was full.
But Su Chuo was preoccupied and had no appetite. He was in a daze and only ate a few chopsticks of stir-fried lotus root.
Su Chuo accompanied Luo Li until the sun went down and then started drinking.
After a pot of wine, Lu Pianpian appeared.
Role reversal.
"Luo Li, just stay in the guest room as my sister does. Don't go out to look for me unless you have to."
Lu Pianpian gave a careless warning, grabbed a bear paw, took a bite, and left the room casually carrying a bottle of wine.
When the girl left the Qingyun Inn, the long street was already brightly lit.
The evening wind is bleak, the night is as cool as water, and the autumn mood is deep on the long street.
Lu Pianpian walked past a few beggars on the street and walked firmly towards the direction of the Muji Theater.
After walking only a mile, I saw a lively pavilion with eight red lights on the side of the street.
From time to time someone would enter with great interest, and from time to time someone would come out frustrated or excited.
Above the gate, there is a plaque hanging with the four words "Lucky Gambling House".
"Gambling house, huh..." Lu Pianpian snorted coldly and walked over with a stern look, her eyes disdainful and contemptuous.
However, soon after she passed the gambling house, her pace slowed down and she no longer had the momentum to stride forward.
Then, she stopped.
Then she started to move forward again, her steps firm again.
However, this time she only took seven or eight steps, and her steps became hesitant again.
Finally, he stopped again.
An inaudible sigh disappeared with the autumn wind.
The girl turned around and stared at the Lucky Casino behind her with a pair of beautiful eyes, the stars in her eyes were shining brightly.
Immediately, she paced, turned around, rubbed her hands and walked towards the gambling house.
"Lu Pianpian! What are you going to do?" Su Chuo suddenly became anxious.
"Are you going to gamble again? You really can't change the temper of a gambler? You have something serious to do tonight!"
"Lu Pianpian, stop right here!"
Lu Pianpian said: "It's still very early, what are you afraid of? You can't miss it if you pass by it. Maybe your gambling luck will come this time?"
"Sister, I'm only playing three games, it won't be a problem."
Su Chuo was about to cry, "Promise me not to gamble! You lost several times in Longcuo City. If it weren't for the fact that the Luo family brother is the city lord, you would have lost everything!"
"Don't you have a long memory by now?"
Although Lu Pianpian was wrong, she did not stop at all and argued:
"It's a small gambling pleasure, what do you know? When people are in the world, they go to the gambling table. Who doesn't gamble? What a fuss!"
"It's not like I don't have money. If I can win, I can even afford to lose!"
"Now that the urge to gamble has arisen, if I deliberately refrain from gambling, I'm afraid my thoughts will not be clear, which will be detrimental to my Taoist mind."
Harmful to the Taoist heart? Lu Pianpian, you are really good at talking nonsense! Su Chuo was so angry that he almost cursed her.
Seeing that he could not stop Lu Pianpian, Su Chuo had no choice but to retreat and do the next best thing.
"I've really had enough of you. One day, you will lose to me and yourself!"
"You just said you would only play three games, I hope you won't break your promise again!"
"Don't worry, sister is not that unreliable." Lu Pianpian stepped onto the steps of the gambling house, "Sister, I will only bet three times tonight!"
"Welcome, sir!" The gambling house at the door greeted the guests. When they saw the extraordinary veiled woman, they immediately beamed.
"This lady, please! Please! Please!"
PS: Madam Lu enters the gambling house - who can take the next sentence?
