Chapter 45



The waiter suddenly realized: "Wait, money, you haven't paid yet!"

After being reminded, Lu Chengji hurriedly threw a silver ingot behind him and continued riding on his way.

He rushed to the south gate of Changling County as quickly as possible.

After getting closer, he was finally able to see clearly that the white thing he had seen before was actually a white house with four words "Xianyuan Hotel" written on the gate of the white house.

He looked to the left and saw someone building a new house opposite the white house. It looked like the foundation of the house was almost completed.

"Every time, I am strong in the wandering loneliness, every time..." [Note]

Suddenly, a beautiful song came from the window of the white house.

The singing voice was melodious, with a bit of distortion, and the voice was extremely high, reverberating like an echo, giving people goosebumps.

Perhaps because this song is obviously much quieter, it actually highlights the advantages of the sound effects themselves.

It was indeed the celestial music from the outer world, it sounded so beautiful as if it were a dream, its numerous echoes surrounding him, enveloping his soul like a torrent.

Is this the effect that only immortals can achieve? How could ordinary people singing have such an effect?

Therefore, even though the lyrics of this song are written in plain language, driven by such beautiful sound effects, it sounds particularly moving.

He couldn't help but recall his experiences over the years.

After falling into the lowest point in his life, he worked hard to get up, stand up again and find a new direction in life, instead of giving up on himself and choosing self-destruction.

What a song that suits his mood.

Listening to such a song, Lu Chengji couldn't help but feel a little dazed, and all kinds of complicated emotions surged in his heart.

He dismounted and led the horse towards the hotel gate.

On the left side of the gatehouse, there was a black sign with a luminous edge. On the blue background, there were a few lines of white text: "If anyone breaks through in the Ice Spring, they will be rewarded with ten potatoes. Only the first forty people to receive the reward. Currently, eighteen people have completed the process. [Long-term parking of vehicles and horses is prohibited around the hotel. Please park in the underground parking lot.]"

Ice spring? Breakthrough? Could this ice spring help with cultivation?

What is an underground parking lot?

Lu Chengji looked to the right. There was a cabinet that looked like it was made of silver. Various things were placed in the cabinet, and many people were queuing up to buy them.

The purchasing method is very strange. Customers put money in and the cabinet will spit out the items.

Standing at the bottom of the stairs, Lu Chengji called out to the people in line, "Everyone, could you tell me where the underground parking lot is?"

An elderly woman in line pointed out, "See that path on the left that leads to the underground? There's a sign next to it."

Perhaps she was too idle to do anything, so she didn't stop after pointing out the way, but continued to talk endlessly. The main point was: how magical this hotel is, how magical the underground parking lot is, and how the hotel owner is really a fairy from heaven.

Lu Chengji's eyes widened as he listened. He didn't react at first and stood there stupidly for a while. After a while, he suddenly came to his senses.

It doesn’t matter whether the shop owner is an immortal or not. What matters is whether he can restore his meridians as soon as possible.

I saw that there was indeed a downward path on the left side of the gatehouse, and there was a slightly dim light at the end of the path.

Lu Chengji hurriedly thanked the old lady and walked over there. When he reached the railing, he suddenly received a piece of content in his mind and took a step back in shock.

This... is this the method of an immortal?

Based on what he was told, he blankly followed the steps to insert the bank card and parked the horse in the underground parking lot, his mind in a daze the whole time.

All this completely overturned his cognition and was something he could never imagine.

After tying the horse in the parking lot, he walked out of the parking lot in a daze and walked into the hotel.

The scene inside the store is another unimaginable one, magnificent, splendid and luxurious.

Lu Chengji didn't have time to look carefully. He looked around and saw some people gathered in front.

"Shop owner, thank you for your kindness in giving me new life. I have finally recovered my martial arts skills." A young girl was bowing to another young girl.

The girl who was bowing had a slightly trembling voice, with a hint of suppressed crying in her voice, and it was obvious that she was very emotional.

Lu Chengji's eyesight was really poor and he couldn't see her expression clearly.

The girl who was being saluted stepped aside and said, "I told you before, no need to thank me."

Next to these two girls stood some other people who were obviously there to join in the fun. Some of them were wearing black robes, tall hats, and long ropes around their waists. It was obvious at a glance that they were from the Xuan Jing Division.

Lu Chengji's heart moved, and he immediately quickened his pace and ran forward: "Can the severed meridians really be reconnected here?"

Feng Yuanning turned his head and glanced, quietly clenching his fists. What good day was today? Two people had arrived in quick succession needing their meridians reconnected. It looked like the mission would soon be complete.

She suppressed her excitement and nodded as calmly as possible: "That's right. If you have enough money, buy the ticket here." She pointed to the ticket machine next to her.

Lu Chengji was overjoyed. Why hadn't he come earlier? What a pity.

He glanced at the ticket machine next to him, and without thinking too much, he immediately went forward to buy a ticket and rushed into the backyard.

Feng Yuanning appeared calm on the surface, but in fact he was more anxious than Lu Chengji himself.

As we all know, gamers' obsession with completing tasks is as strong as a starving ghost who sees a piece of meat hanging in front of him but cannot eat it.

As long as a player receives a task that can be completed, he must complete it even if he has to use all means.

Feng Yuanning has the same mentality.

This is the last person. As long as this person also completes the restoration of the broken meridians, she will finally be able to complete the task and obtain the task reward: the reading room.

She couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

These days, Mingmei, the owner of Xiangmanlou, also collected a dozen secret books and gave them to her, but there was still no secret book that she could understand.

Now the only thing that can help her embark on the path of cultivation is the reading room.

Feng Yuanning was waiting, his heart had completely flown away, flying towards the reading room that was about to be unlocked.

Whatever the people around her did or said was completely excluded by her information receiving senses.

A moment later.

finally.

A system prompt rang out in her mind: "Congratulations, host, for completing the mission. The hotel building: Reading Room has now been unlocked. Please complete the setup as soon as possible. You have triggered a new mission. Please check it yourself."

Feng Yuanning immediately couldn't wait to open the system virtual interface, and the first thing that caught his eye was the data on the system homepage.

Hotel upgrade conditions: The restaurant has served a total of 1541/3000 people and completed 2/3 of the task.

Mission: The restaurant entertains 200 people in one day and unlocks the insulated takeout packaging box.

She took a quick glance and immediately clicked into the hotel management interface, first entering the reading room management item and checking it carefully.

Reading Room: Customers have a 5% chance of mastering the techniques in the book. The owner is not subject to any restrictions and can directly master the techniques in the book after reading it.

Books: None.

Please randomly draw books. You will have one chance to draw books every month.

Feng Yuanning was so excited that her heart began to beat faster. She clenched her fists nervously and clicked on the option to extract a book.

Suddenly, one book after another flashed by quickly on the interface. She opened her eyes wide and stared at them carefully, and found that there were many familiar books among them.

For example, "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng", "The Flying Dagger of Xiao Li", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Return of the Condor Heroes", "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", "Who is the Hero", "Investiture of the Gods", and "The Legend of the Swordsman".

After a while, the speed at which the books flashed gradually slowed down.

It finally settled on one of the books: The Return of the Condor Heroes.

Feng Yuanning was immediately disappointed. She had originally hoped to get lucky and win a fantasy novel.

In this way, wouldn't she be able to cultivate immortality directly? Unfortunately, she was unlucky and didn't get the chance.

Feng Yuanning copied 500 copies of the book, then entered the hotel's 3D map management interface and set up a reading room on the first floor of the hotel.

After the setup was completed, the lobby suddenly took up a lot of space, but it still looked extremely spacious, no less than an ordinary hotel.

After completing the settings, she closed the system interface and saw that there was indeed an extra room on the other side of the lobby.

The entire wall of this newly appeared room is made of glass. Through the glass, you can see rows and rows of bookshelves in the room, on which are placed five hundred sets of "The Return of the Condor Heroes".

The guests who happened to witness this scene were stunned.

The owner suddenly had an idea and used his power to benefit the customers again?

Very touching.

The owner always thinks so much about them. He not only brings them divine songs from outer space, but also brings them so many books.

Feng Yuanning took the lead and walked towards the reading room.

The other guests immediately followed her in.

When some guests who were eating in the restaurant saw this scene, they couldn't help but laugh.

They temporarily left the delicious food on the table, ran out impatiently to check the situation, and rushed into the reading room together.

Feng Yuanning took down a copy of The Return of the Condor Heroes and introduced it to the guests, saying, "This set of books is not just a novel. When you read it, there's a chance you'll be able to master the techniques in it."

The guests gasped in shock.

Song Yuluan suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "Shopkeeper, the reason you asked us to help you collect the exercises is so that you can deduce better ones based on those exercises?"

It turned out that the owner did have a purpose in collecting the skills, but it was not for herself, but for the customers like them.

She was glad that she was involved in this matter and that she was willing to help the store owner, which eventually paid off in her favor.

Unfortunately, the skills her master sent to her were rather rudimentary. If she could collect more advanced skills for the shop owner, would the shop owner be able to deduce better skills?

What was even more regrettable was that although her master had asked her senior sisters and others to send those basic skills to her for her sake, he ultimately missed the rare opportunity and never sent more disciples to Jianshan. Instead, he sent a letter to her ordering her to return to the mountain quickly.

She was still hesitating whether to go back to Jianshan, present facts and reason, and personally persuade her master.

But now, after seeing the books in the reading room, she was even more reluctant to leave Xianyuan Hotel, not even for a day.
