Chapter 127 Wishing you a promotion and great wealth, sir.
Lu Xiaofeng then followed Sikong Zhaixing and lay down inside the coffin. The space inside was quite large.
Even when Lu Xiaofeng and Sikong Zhaixing were lying together, there was still some space between them.
Looking at the two, Shan Tianxie suddenly thought of an idiom: Isn't this a case of "man on top of man"?!
He then shook his head, and similarly dug a solitary grave next to him.
"Rain, come lie down together!"
A blush crept across Xi Yu's face. She hesitated for a long time before finally lying down quietly next to Shan Tianxie.
At this moment, no one could tell that she was once a cold-blooded killer, the kind who would kill an entire family at the drop of a hat.
Xia Xueyi found a secluded grave by herself, hugged the Golden Snake Sword, and lay down inside.
Following the method taught by Sikong Zhaixing, the group then stuck a sparkler into the grave, which emitted a dazzling light in the night sky.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Shan Tianxie grew impatient waiting in the coffin and was about to break out.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside the coffin!
"They've finally arrived!" Shan Tianxie breathed a slight sigh of relief, thinking that something had changed in the plot.
The people outside should be the Kunlun slaves from the original game, who are specifically responsible for transporting guests to the Paradise Tower for entertainment.
The four Kunlun slaves walked up to the coffin and slowly stopped. They looked at each other, somewhat at a loss.
What day is it today? Three groups of guests in one place? This is beyond what the guys can handle, let's call for backup!
Within the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, eight more Kunlun slaves appeared in the mass grave.
Then, following the procedure, the group took out the prepared nails and hammered them into all four corners of the coffin. Then, in groups of four, they carried the coffin away.
In an instant, the coffin was transformed into a sedan chair, and the Kunlun slave was clearly gifted, carrying the coffin without swaying or shaking, making it even more comfortable than an ordinary sedan chair!
About half an hour later, Shan Tianxie clearly felt that the coffin had stopped moving.
Then, the nails were pulled out one by one, and the coffin lid was opened.
Dan Tianxie slowly stood up from the coffin and realized that Xia Xueyi's, Lu Xiaofeng's, and the others' coffins were not in this room.
Then, taking the opportunity to stretch, he began to carefully examine his surroundings.
The room was lit only by bright candlelight, and dozens of masked people stood around it.
A richly dressed man wearing a white mask bowed deeply upon seeing Shan Tianxie stand up and said, "Welcome to the Blissful Pavilion! May you be promoted and become wealthy!"
The dozen or so henchmen behind him also bowed in unison, "Wishing you a promotion and great fortune, sir!"
"This is the Blissful Pavilion?"
Dan Tianxie scanned his surroundings but found nothing particularly unusual. The strength of the people around him was also unremarkable.
Among them, the masked man has the highest martial arts skills, but he is only barely at the first-class level. How dare he use the name of Bliss?
"Please put on your masks!"
After the masked man finished speaking, a pink-clad maid came up with a tray on which were two exquisitely crafted masks.
"Is it because you're ashamed to be seen in public?"
Dan Tianxie said with a smile on his face.
"Of course not." The masked man shook his head.
"These are the rules of the Paradise Pavilion. After all, everyone comes out to have fun. It may seem like we're wearing masks, but in reality, we're taking them off!"
"Ok?"
Dan Tianxie looked at the masked man with some surprise. So philosophical?
However, he didn't say anything, but simply took the two masks and put one on his face.
"Fine Rain, you should have one too."
After the two put on their masks.
"You two, please come with me."
After the masked man finished speaking, he took the lead and led the way, with Shan Tianxie and Xiyu following closely behind.
The interior of this Blissful Pavilion is quite large, resembling a small maze. Without someone inside to guide you, it's impossible to find your way around.
After passing through countless corridors, Shan Tianxie and his companion, led by the masked man, entered the interior of the Blissful Pavilion.
The masked man explained the rules of the Paradise Tower to them as he walked.
"Let me introduce our establishment to you both. Our Paradise Pavilion has three floors. The first floor is mostly occupied by merchants and wealthy people, the second floor is mostly occupied by martial arts practitioners, and as for the third floor..."
The masked man paused, a hint of longing in his voice, "The third level is truly paradise!"
"Oh?" Dan Tianxie glanced at the masked man with interest. Now that he mentioned it, the third level was quite intriguing. "How do I enter the third level?"
"If one becomes an official of the first rank or above, one can aspire to become a martial arts master!" The masked man pondered for a moment and continued, "Of course, there is another way: one can also enter the third floor by receiving a personal invitation from the master."
"I see."
"I hope you two have a pleasant time here today! I'll take my leave now!"
After speaking, the masked man bowed and walked away.
Dan Tianxie watched his retreating figure and muttered, "He was a talented man, quite philosophical, what a pity."
"Young Master, what should we do next?"
Looking around at the diverse guests coming and going, Xi Yu whispered a question in Shan Tianxie's ear.
"Next, I came here to experience it out."
After Shan Tianxie finished speaking, he led Xiyu to the nearest gambling table.
After all, he's never gambled money in the world of martial arts before.
When Shan Tianxie saw the amount of the bet, he was slightly taken aback. Good heavens, the next bet will be at least one hundred taels of silver!
You should know that even the legendary Thief of Tongfu Inn only earns two taels of silver a month!
This amount of money is enough for an ordinary family to live comfortably for more than ten years.
This experience is better left untouched!
Just then, Shan Tianxie's eyes lit up as he spotted Lu Xiaofeng in the crowd.
The main problem is that this mask can only cover the upper part of the face. There is no one else in the martial arts world who can groom his beard to be as beautiful as his eyebrows as Lu Xiaofeng!
Dan Tianxie walked slowly towards Lu Xiaofeng. When he reached him, he found that Lu was alone and asked, "Brother Lu? Where is Brother Sikong?"
"Hey, where is it!"
Lu Xiaofeng pointed to a gambling table next to him, where Sikong Zhaixing was already playing happily.
Dan Tianxie smiled faintly, "Brother Lu, won't you come and play with us for a while?"
"Young Master Shan, please don't joke with me." Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard and laughed, "With my meager net worth, I'd probably be bankrupt after just a few rounds of this!"
Dan Tianxie then remembered that although Lu Xiaofeng was highly skilled in martial arts, he had the mentality of a playboy and was used to spending money lavishly on women.
He didn't have any stable way to make money; he usually just investigated cases and collected bounties. The expenses at the Paradise Tower were indeed beyond his means.
