If you become a monster, you will succeed

"~~"

Whistling in his mouth, Lao Li sat behind his desk, casually flipping through the information sent back from various places in Dachu. Although there are special reviewers below, he still likes to flip through it by himself.

"Master! Master!"

Suddenly, there was a call from outside the door, Lao Li frowned slightly, but he still spoke:

"What's up?"

"There's an expert outside who wants to see you by name. He has 18 falls in yellow clothes, and he is already at the level of gold clothes. He says he is your old friend!"

Wearing a coarse brown coat with a towel on his shoulders, the young man who looked like a waiter said, although he looks like an ordinary mistress, if there is a real fight, three or five grandmasters may not be able to win he.

"Old friend?" Lao Li raised his brows, although he didn't think there was any old friend in this area, he still nodded and said:

"Take him to the Bamboo Forest Pavilion, I'll be right there."

"Come on!" The young man turned and left, while Lao Li stood up, moved his body a little, and then slowly walked towards the bamboo forest pavilion holding a small red clay teapot.

The one-minute journey made him walk for almost ten minutes, but as the door of the bamboo forest pavilion opened, he got into the room with a whoosh, closed the door, and then said in surprise:

"Didn't you go back to Infinite City? I thought you closed the door!"

"The door is closed, but there are rules for coming!" Feng Xue spread out her hands and calmly sipped her tea. Then Lao Li patted his head pretendingly, and suddenly said:

"Look at me, I forgot that Xuanjun of yours is already a strange talk, what happened when you came back this time?"

"It's nothing serious, I just want to ask you something." Feng Xue crossed her legs, seeing him like this, Lao Li also relaxed, took a sip of the rice wine in the teapot, sat opposite Feng Xue and said:

"Ask me? What's the matter? If you want to know something now, just go to the tavern and buy it? Or is it about Baimonugatari?"

"There are no more hundred stories in this world." Feng Xue said calmly, Lao Li didn't react for a while, and after a long while, he digested Feng Xue's words, staring and saying:

"What did you say?"

"I said that there is no more Hundred Monogatari, and Qing Xingdeng swallowed all the strange stories about Hundred Monogatari, leaving only the big tengu and Yuzaoqian." Feng Xue was also afraid of irritating Lao Li, so she didn't tell him that it was her. Hammered Hundred Stories.

But Lao Li, as an old antique of the same era as Baiwuyu, even just such a result has already caused an unimaginable impact on him. He muttered "how could this be?" , as if in a daze, Feng Xue clapped her hands vigorously to wake him up.

"In short, I just want to ask you, what is on the top of the Tower of Babylon?"

Hearing Feng Xue's question, Lao Li suddenly broke away from his confused state, frowned and said:

"Why do you ask that?"

Looking at Lao Li's appearance, Feng Xue couldn't help but twitched the corners of his eyes. With this posture, he suspected that the bewildered posture before was all pretended by Lao Li.

But it seems meaningless to worry about this. He didn't give a positive answer, but responded calmly:

"It's simply curiosity. After all, the Tower of Babylon is so tall and it is the center of Infinite City. Anyone would be curious, right?"

"I'll just pretend you're curious." Lao Li didn't bother with this question, just like Feng Xue didn't bother about whether he was pretending to be stupid. He just pondered for a moment, and then threw it out as usual when Feng Xue asked him questions. A rhetorical question——

"Do you know how many floors there are in the Tower of Babylon?"

"Who knows? One thousand floors or two thousand floors? Anyway, from the outside, at least a few kilometers away?" I have to say that this question really touches Feng Xue's blind spot of knowledge, after all, the exterior and interior of the Tower of Babylon There are completely two structures. From the outside, it has no concept of floors at all. If you insist, only the ten-meter-high door can explain the height of the first floor.

But internally, each floor of the Tower of Babylon is more like an independent space, with the sky, the sun and the moon, even if these are false sky domes like landfills, each floor is at least tens of meters high After all, on each floor, there is a department store over 20 meters high.

Hearing what Feng Xue said, Lao Li showed a weird smile, shook his head, and reported a number that surprised Feng Xue——

120 floors.

"Only one hundred and twenty floors? Doesn't that mean that there are only 6,000 strange stories when the occupancy is full?" Feng Xue showed a surprised expression for this unexpectedly small number, but Lao Li nodded and said:

"To be exact, there are only 5021 ghost stories when the house is full."

"5021..." For such a meaningful number, Feng Xue thought for a while, then had a guess, and immediately said: "Fifty for each floor in the first 100 floors, one for each floor in the next 20 floors, and one for each floor in the last 20 floors. A tower master?"

"That's it." Lao Li didn't seem surprised that Feng Xue could guess it, and said in a flat tone:

"Actually, what I told you is only what I learned from others. As for whether it is true, I don't know. After all, I only climbed to the 67th floor at the highest. Tell me that the Tower of Babylon has 120 floors. The one on the first floor is also a resident on the sixty-sixth floor, um, it seems to be called...Sugawara..."

"Michizane Sugawara?" Feng Xue heard the surname "Sugawara", and immediately thought of one of the legendary three evil spirits of the Eastern Kingdom. Lao Li immediately slapped him and said:

"That's right, it's him!"

"But Sugawara Michizane should have been born more than a thousand years ago. If he had become Acquired Kaidan at that time, how could he be on the Tower of Babylon? If it was modern times that stole the power of Kaidan, how could he get from Baimonugatari's eyelids? Did you get the position of such a great god? And this kind of great god should not be so easy to usurp the throne, right?"

With just one name, Feng Xue had all sorts of doubts in her heart. Lao Li listened to his question, but didn't explain much, just shook his head and said:

"I don't know the specific reason, but what I can tell you is that Sugawara Michizane should be the Houtian ghost story born a thousand years ago. As for whether he has been alive until today because of his incense, or is he resurrected from the legend for some reason , I don’t even know, but what I can tell you is that from the fifty floors up, there are quite a few such old antiques.”

"In other words, there are many strange stories that were once regarded as gods in ancient times. In fact, they did not completely die out, but hid in the Tower of Babylon? This is not right, isn't the Infinite City less than fifty years old?"

Feng Xue was completely confused, but Lao Li just shook his head calmly and said:

"This is not something I can know. After all, I am only in my thirties as a ghost. I don't know if you ask me these questions about the elderly. If you want to know, you can only do it yourself." Go ask, of course, first of all, you must lay the basics well, otherwise, like me, halfway up the tower, your house will be stolen by someone, and that would be a tragedy in the world."
