Xuanxia

Chapter 1131 Anchor Point
In the fake Xishuo city.

The handsome man was walking in the city with a smile on his face.

Of course, his face now looks like Fu Qingzhou.

Why did he become like this?

In fact, it is difficult for the handsome man himself to give an answer.

He only vaguely knew that he was supposed to be the protagonist of this world, but he had no memory of what stories he was supposed to experience or what he was supposed to have.

But he understood that Fu Qingzhou had snatched away his position as the "protagonist".

Am I envious of him? Am I jealous of him?

Not really.

The handsome man knew very well that as long as the plan succeeded, he would be helping the world to complete an "upgrade". At that time, he would not only be recognized by the new heaven and truly integrated into this world, but with his abilities, he would definitely become the protagonist again.

Fu Qingzhou is just a soul born out of obsession. He has only been in this world for a little over twenty years. How can he compare to himself who is destined to be a god for all eternity?
The one who laughs last is the winner.

"Maybe... I just want to experience the joy of being the protagonist in advance."

The handsome man chuckled.

He leisurely came to the gate of Hong Mansion.

The gate of the Hong Mansion was still crowded with people. The master of the Hong family, Hong Ruohai, held a banquet to celebrate his son's return, but this was just an excuse. To put it bluntly, he also wanted to take this opportunity to reconnect with the celebrities and dignitaries from all walks of life in the city.

The handsome man smiled and walked forward.

He raised his hand, and suddenly there was an exquisite gift box in his empty hand.

"This young master?"

The servant came forward and politely bowed: "Who are you?"

"I am an old friend of Master Hong. I passed by today and wanted to ask for a drink."

The handsome man smiled and handed over the gift box: "Just say that it was Fu Qingzhou who came to see him."

Now everything in this city is just a thought away from him. It is a very easy thing to make Hong Zhi "remember" that he has such a friend.

But before the servant could respond, the three women passing by him looked over at the same time.

They were not others but Ning Wushu, Qiu Chan and Tang Jiao.

They were originally walking out of the mansion against the crowd, but when they heard the three words "Fu Qingzhou", they suddenly stopped and turned their heads to look over.

Seeing this, the handsome man was stunned.

He was very sure that he had not put anything about this name into the minds of the three of them...

Be

"Your name is Fu Qingzhou?"

Ning Wushu's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked, "Do you know Wu Yan?"

"Wu Yan..." The handsome man reacted very quickly and laughed: "Miss, are you talking about the writer?"

"Yes."

Ning Wushu blinked and said, "Isn't Fu Qingzhou the character in his new book?"

"Oh?" The handsome man's eyes narrowed slightly.

He did give Wu Yan the identity of a writer and made him a "best-selling author", but he did not care about what the other party wrote. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the city. If he has to worry about such trivial details, then even he would not have enough brains now.

Did Wu Yan...write Fu Qingzhou into his book?

"Haha, I see. Did he write me into the book?"

The handsome man smiled shyly: "We did meet once many years ago, but I didn't expect that there would be such a thing... I heard that the stories written by Brother Wu are selling very well now. It seems that I have to ask him for some wine money."

Qiu Chan and Tang Jiao looked at each other.

Is that why they stopped when they heard the name just now?
But they...

I obviously haven't read that book.

Then why does this name sound so... familiar?
"So you are Mr. Wu's good friend."

Ning Wushu's eyes brightened: "It's just that you look more like a scholar, not... like the young knight in the book."

"Haha, people in books are always different from real people." The handsome man chuckled again.

Ning Wushu looked at him seriously and said softly, "I am about to visit Mr. Wu. Mr. Fu, would you like to go with me?"

The handsome man's gaze stayed on her for a moment, then turned to Qiu Chan and Tang Jiao.

These two women, who are the most important to Fu Qingzhou in real life, are also secretly looking at her.

The way they looked at the handsome man was filled with curiosity, strangeness, inquiry, and familiarity...

The handsome man smiled. He came here to "make friends" and to "experience being the protagonist", so of course he had to go with them.

"In that case, it couldn't be better."

He smiled and said, "I haven't seen Mr. Wu for a long time."

"As for Brother Hong..."

The handsome man looked into the Hong residence and said, "Now that Brother Hong is back, it won't be too difficult for you to visit me anytime."

Ning Wushu smiled slightly: "Then, Mr. Fu, please."

"please."

The handsome man responded elegantly.

The group of four left the Hong residence and walked onto the streets of Xishuo City.

During the conversation, Ning Wushu mentioned why she wanted to visit Mr. Wu——

According to her, she has been a fan of Wu Yan's books for a long time, but she has not been obsessed to that extent. However, Wu Yan's new book "Xuan Xia" recently really made her immersed in it, and she also wanted to meet Mr. Wu and have a chat with him.

Ning Wushu found out that Wu Yan was living in Xishuo City, so he made a special trip to his adoptive father's house to stay. Today he sent a maid to buy new books and cakes to visit him. He bought the new books to prove his identity as a book fan, and the cakes were of course gifts.

"It seems that Miss Ning really likes this new book."

The handsome man smiled and said, "I wonder what story it tells?"

"Master Fu is the protagonist of this story, but he doesn't read it himself, but listens to it through other people's mouths. It's really not elegant." Ning Wushu chuckled and said, "Why don't you read it yourself?"

As she said that, she handed the book over without any hesitation.

If Wu Yan can use "Fu Qingzhou" as the protagonist, what does it have to do with the prototype of this protagonist reading the book?
The handsome man's eyes narrowed slightly and he reached out to take it.

When I opened the first page, a few sentences caught my eye.

"The setting sun is slanting, and the autumn wind is as sharp as a knife."

"The whole mountain is covered with fluttering maple leaves, and a red cloud hangs in the air, lonely."

"In the maple forest at dusk, a figure stepped on the yellow leaves all over the ground, walking step by step towards the mountains."

"He is a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing animal skins, deerskin boots, holding an iron bow, and a feather quiver hanging from his waist. He is very handsome, and looks like a young man from a wealthy family, but his face and body are covered with mountain dust, and there is an indescribable sophistication between his brows."

"Except for that somewhat childish face, he looks like an old hunter no matter how you look at him."

"Before the red sun sank into the mountains, the young man passed through the maple forest and arrived in front of a valley."

"He looked around, then suddenly knelt on one knee, clasped his hands together, took a deep breath, and spoke loudly to the deep valley ahead."

"Fu Qingzhou, the hunter from Qingwa Village, comes here to ask for the immortal's advice!"

"Master, please come and give me some advice!"

The handsome man's breathing was slightly stagnant.

Of course he knew how this story began.

He has been keeping an eye on Fu Qingzhou.

He knew very well that this was Fu Qingzhou's last hunt before leaving Bailu Mountain.

But Wu Yan shouldn't know this.

The handsome man's face was slightly gloomy. He quickly flipped the pages of the book, scanning through the stories that flashed out one after another.

Wan Du Mountain, Long Dabei, Langhuan Mountain, Ning Baimei... This story was temporarily interrupted when Fu Qingzhou first went to Langhuan Mountain, and the sequel has not yet been written.

"Snapped."

He closed the book.

“The book is not finished yet.”

Ning Wushu did not notice his complicated expression and smiled, "But the story is very exciting. It would be great if I could hear Mr. Wu's thoughts on the next part of the story."

"Indeed... it is well written."

The handsome man forced a smile and returned the book.

He doesn't understand.

How did Fu Qingzhou's story get into Wu Yan's mind?

Or is it just because Wu Yan is a writer in this world?
If someone else wrote the book, would they be able to tell the same story?
In the hearts of these people...

There are some special anchor points.

He must, must figure it out.
