Chapter 374

At seven o'clock in the evening, the lights are on.

Liu Xing and Wang Lanlan left the Homeless Hotel together and went to the famous scenic spot in Donglou City - Yulou.

The Rain Tower was only a few hundred meters away from the Homeless Hotel. The two walked directly, and after a few minutes, they arrived at the entrance of the east gate of the Rain Tower scenic spot.

Yulou is located on the campus of Yulou Fiction Academy, which was originally closed to ordinary people.It's just that the Yulou has the ability to pray for rain. It has rained in time many times, and resolved the drought in Donglou City and many provinces in northern China. The Yulou has a special status in the hearts of the people. Many people come here with awe. Worship the Yulou just like worshiping the gods.

In order to satisfy the public's desire to worship the Rain Tower, the School of Fiction built a special passage for the Rain Tower on campus more than 20 years ago. Ordinary people can enter through this passage and visit the Rain Tower.

Due to the large number of visitors, in order to control the flow of people, the Yulou Scenic Area began to charge nine years ago.To visit the Rain Tower, you need to buy tickets first.

The Rain Tower is a ring-shaped building with four rings of buildings on its periphery, one surrounding the other, and the Rain Tower is located in the center of the ring.

Therefore, the tickets for Yulou are divided into four levels.

The lowest-grade ticket only costs 100 yuan, and you can enter the fourth ring building complex of Yulou, which is about 100 meters away from the center of Yulou, and can only be viewed from a distance.

The second ticket costs 800 yuan. Visitors can enter the third ring building complex of Yulou, which is closer to the center of Yulou, only about 50 meters away.

The third ticket costs 2000 yuan. Tourists mainly enter the second ring building complex on the second floor, which is only 20 meters away from the center of Yulou.

If you want to enter the Yulou Center in person and have a close contact with Yulou, you can only buy the fourth-tier tickets.This file is the most expensive ticket, and the price of a ticket is 10000 yuan.

Liu Xing has already booked two 10000 yuan tickets in advance, and he took Wang Lanlan directly to the ticket gate of the scenic spot.

"Sir, you bought the ticket for the fourth tranche. Please enter from entrance 4. As long as you keep walking along the ladder, you can reach the Rain Tower."

"Thank you."

After passing through the ticket gate, Liu Xing and Wang Lanlan walked into the scenic spot from the designated entrance, and a stone ladder made of white jade appeared in front of them.

There are 211 stone steps in total, extending upwards like a long snake. At the end of the stone stairs is a black circular building with a height of 50 meters, standing like a giant umbrella in the sky.

This black circular building is exactly the legendary Yulou.

"Little bone, let's go!"

"right!."

Along the stone ladder, the two climbed up step by step.

There are not many tourists who buy this ticket, and it is night, the long stone staircase looks a bit deserted, there are only about twenty or thirty tourists.

According to legend, the Yulou has the ability to pray for rain and is very mysterious. Many people are curious about the mystery of this building, and Wang Lanlan is no exception.

While climbing the stone ladder, Wang Lanlan secretly sensed the book "Hidden Potential", trying to discover the secret of Yulou.

When she climbed from the first stone staircase to the 210th stone staircase, she found nothing. This rain building didn't seem to have anything special, it was just an ordinary stone building.

While thinking about it, the two of them had already climbed the last stone ladder, and the rain tower like a giant black umbrella was within easy reach.

At this time, in the square in front of the Yulou, there are more than a dozen tourists who are worshiping the Yulou. They kowtow to the Yulou three times and say something in their mouths. Some tourists even light incense, which seems to be a sacrificial ceremony. , very solemn look.

"Dad, what are they doing?" Wang Lanlan wondered.

"It should be worshiping the Rain Tower." Liu Xing said, "This Rain Tower once benefited the people, and some people regard it as a god."

Wang Lanlan whispered: "But, I just checked it with the book "Show Hidden Potential", and this Yulou seems to be very ordinary, without any abnormalities."

Liu Xingdao: "You haven't fully cultivated "Show Hidden Potential" and only reached the second stage. It's not surprising that you didn't see the mystery of Yulou."

Wang Lanlan asked: "Dad, have you seen the mystery of Yulou?"

Liu Xingdao: "If there is a daughter, there must be a father. The daughter's "Showing the Hidden Potential" has not been practiced well, and of course the father has not practiced well either."

"..." Wang Lanlan curled her small mouth: Blame me?
After a few chats, the two stood by the railing of Yulou Square and looked eastward together.

According to the memory of the woman in red in the hotel, there is a story city secretly built on the east side of Yulou, called Paradise Story City.This paradise story city has been built for more than ten years, and it should be planned by Huang Lingtian.

Paradise Story City is different from ordinary Story City. Its buildings are not rebuilt, but remodeled from existing buildings.

在雨楼东边，有277家商店、12家旅馆、7家酒店、18座居民小区、4个休闲娱乐中心、1个体育馆、2家三级甲等医院……这些建筑都在天堂硌城的范围内，它们都是天堂故事城的一部分。

Although these areas were not separated by walls, they may have been controlled by Huang Lingtian.

This is a story city without walls.

Liu Xing was curious about what method Huang Lingtian used to control the story city.

In a story city without walls, it is easy to leak information.Paradise Story City has been in existence for more than ten years, but the book police team has not found any clues, which shows that Paradise Story City has very complete security measures.

"Is it related to brainwashing?"

Liu Xing secretly speculated that the residents in the Paradise Story City area were most likely to have been brainwashed, and these people might have turned into puppets, at the mercy of Huang Lingtian.

Swish!
Just as he was thinking, he heard footsteps.

Liu Xing turned his head and saw a middle-aged man with a big belly, about 50 years old, wearing a pair of thick glasses on his fat face, followed by two black-clothed bodyguards.

The two bodyguards stopped, and the fat man walked to the front of the Yulou, then knelt down on his knees and kowtowed towards the Yulou.

Seeing this, Wang Lanlan asked softly, "Dad, who is this fat uncle?"

Liu Xingdao: "His name is Li Ci, and he is the founder of Huaxia Giant Hardware and Software Company."

"Great Software Company?" Wang Lanlan had heard of this company before. Juhard Software is a technology company that has risen in China in recent years.

Relying on the self-developed office software WORKS and design software THINKER, the giant hardware software company entered the software industry of China at a rapid speed and became one of the most competitive high-tech companies in northern China.

As the giant hardware and software company got on the right track, the company's founder Li Ci's net worth soared rapidly, and he was already a frequent visitor on China's richest list.

Liu Xing was a little surprised that such a billionaire suddenly appeared in Yulou.

Li Ci kowtowed three times towards the Yulou Tower, got up slowly, and was about to leave when he glanced out of the corner of his eye and suddenly saw Liu Xing standing beside him.

"Huh?" Li Ci walked towards Liu Xing, with surprise on his fat face, "Isn't this Bill Gailou? Mr. Lou, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

While speaking, he shook hands with Liu Xing.

The identity of Bill Gailou was designed by Liu Xing last year. He has used this identity to deal with many rich businessmen in Donglou City, and Li Ci is one of them.

After a few greetings, Li Ci saw Wang Lanlan standing beside Liu Xing, and asked, "Who is this little girl? She looks so juicy."

Liu Xing introduced: "She is a daughter, her name is Hua Qiangu. Xiaogu, hurry up and say hello to Uncle Li."

"Hello, Uncle Li." Wang Lanlan raised her head and greeted politely.

"Hello, hello!" Li Ci sighed, and said, "Boss Lou, I really envy you for having such a lovely daughter. If I could have such a daughter, I would be willing to go bankrupt!"

Liu Xing said: "President Li, you are too busy with work to take care of your family, otherwise it will not be easy to have a daughter?"

Li Ci shook his head and said helplessly: "Mr. Lou, to tell you the truth, it's not that I don't want to have a daughter, but that I can't. I got married four years ago, and my wife's name is Qingqing. After getting married, I have been Want to have a child. Unfortunately, five years have passed, and Qingqing is still not pregnant."

Liu Xing was puzzled: "Why did this happen? Didn't you go to the hospital for an examination?"

Li Cidao: "I have visited every major hospital in the country. I have done all the checks that should be done, and the checks that should not be done, but after many checks, I can't find the root of the problem. Me and Qingqing There is nothing wrong with my body, but for so many years, Qingqing has never been able to blame the child. In desperation, I had to come to Yulou to try."

Wang Lanlan was surprised: "Uncle Li, what does your coming to Yulou have to do with being pregnant?"

Li Ci smiled lightly and said: "The Yulou can pray for rain, and it can communicate with the gods. As long as you sincerely pray to the Yulou, your wishes will come true. A friend of mine got cancer two years ago, and the doctor has already sentenced him to death. Later , he came to the Yulou to worship, hoping that God would allow him to live for a few more years. As a result, one month after the worship in the Yulou, his condition miraculously began to improve, the cancer cells stopped spreading, and the number decreased sharply .Until now, my friend is still alive and well."

Wang Lanlan's eyes were round, what happened?

Li Ci continued: "After learning about this, I also came to the Yulou to worship at the beginning of this year. I came once a week, rain or shine. As a result, just today, Qingqing became pregnant successfully. After a preliminary examination by the hospital, she I should really be pregnant this time. So, I came here again today to pay homage to the Yulou Tower, thanking it for its blessing and giving me a child."

Wang Lanlan looked surprised: "Is Yulou really so magical?"

Li Ci said: "I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it. Yulou is really the incarnation of the gods! In nine months, my child will be born."

After chatting for a few more words, Li Ci left first.

Li Ci's wife, Qingqing, is pregnant and is currently undergoing an examination at the First Hospital of Donglou City. Li Ci is going to pick her up.

"It's unbelievable that she was actually pregnant."

Seeing Li Ci's disappearing figure, Wang Lanlan was full of doubts and curiosity.She originally thought that Yulou seemed ordinary, but after listening to Li Ciyi, this Yulou can not only pray for rain, but also pray for blessings, and even make people pregnant. Isn't this too omnipotent?

what is the problem?

Wang Lanlan was thinking, at this time, the ghost book in Liu Xing's arms suddenly moved, and the fire phoenix hidden in the ghost book reminded: "The shadow man, Li Ci's wife Qingqing's pregnancy is weird, Qingqing Impossible to conceive."

Liu Xing said: "Do you know Qingqing?"

"Yes." Huo Fenghuang said, "Goddess Publishing House has arrested many young and beautiful women, and Qingqing is one of them. Three years ago, Qingqing was arrested by Goddess Publishing House. At that time, she was already suffering from cancer and breast cancer. The cancer was terminal. Not long after, Qingqing passed away..."

"Dead?" Liu Xing frowned slightly, "Qingqing died?"

"Yes, Qingqing died three years ago." Huo Fenghuang said with certainty, "Qingqing looks sweet, and she is four or five points similar to the Qinglian imperial concubine back then. I once suspected that she was Qinglian imperial concubine's descendant. People, I have thoroughly investigated her life experience, I can't remember wrongly. At that time, Qingqing had been married to Li Ci for more than a year, but had no children yet."

The more Wang Lanlan listened, the more confused she became: "If Qingqing died three years ago, why did Uncle Li Ci say that Qingqing was pregnant? How could a dead person be pregnant?"

"So there must be something weird about this matter." Huo Fenghuang said, "Li Ci said that Qingqing is now in Donglou No. [-] Hospital, we should go and have a look."

Liu Xing thought for a while and said, "Xiaogu, let's go."

"Ah."

So, the two turned around and left Yulou, heading for the First Hospital of Donglou City.

The First Hospital of Donglou City is located to the east of Yulou, which is just within the scope of Paradise Story City.

For the convenience of action, Liu Xing once again used "72 Changes" to transform into air, but Wang Lanlan continued to use "Invisibility".

When they came to the hospital together, Li Ci had already arrived by car.

Afterwards, Li Ci walked into the outpatient building and took the elevator to the fourth floor, followed by Liu Xing and Wang Lanlan secretly.

When he came to the door of an outpatient room, Li Ci stopped and waited anxiously.

After a while.

The door of the outpatient room opened, and a chief female doctor came out. Li Ci quickly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Doctor, how is my wife?"

The female doctor smiled and said, "Boss Li, congratulations. Qingqing is really pregnant this time. She is in good health and has no problems."

"Really?" Liz was very excited, and asked again, "Is it a boy or a girl?"

The female doctor smiled and said, "I'm just pregnant now, it's too young to tell."

"Can I go in and see Qingqing now?"

"of course."

"Thank you, Doctor."

After speaking, Li Ci pushed open the door of the outpatient room and walked in.

Seeing this, Wang Lanlan, who was in the invisible state, felt a little nervous, and said to Liu Xing who was in the air: "Dad, do we want to go in and have a look?"

Liu Xing said: "Of course."

Wang Lanlan whispered: "But, I'm a little scared."

"What are you afraid of?"

"There seems to be a Qingqing in the outpatient room." Wang Lanlan said, "Is this Qingqing a human or a ghost?"

Liu Xing said with a smile: "Even if it's a ghost, there's nothing to be afraid of. Aren't Xiaoqian and Huofenghuang ghosts? Besides, you have your father with you. Let's go, little detective, let's uncover the truth together."

"Ah."

After speaking, there was a wave of fluctuation in the air, the door of the outpatient room opened slowly, and Liu Xing and Wang Lanlan slipped in through the crack of the door...
