Chapter 205 The Restricted Area and the Top Ten Novel Contests
Yufeng Mountain, in the woods.

"How to cooperate?" Under a big tree, Liu Xing asked with his mobile phone.
"You can cooperate in any way, and you can ask for any conditions." The man was very straightforward, his voice was slightly hoarse, and he was estimated to be over 50 years old.

After chatting for a few words, Liu Xingfa felt that the man's voice was a little familiar.

After careful identification, I found that his accent is somewhat similar to Guo Zibao's!

"Guo Zibao is related to the Golden Gun Organization?"

Liu Xing remembered that Guo Zibao also had a golden gun, and his marksmanship was exactly the same as that of the Golden Gunners. Guo Zibao was probably a member of the Golden Gunners.

Liu Xing continued: "My condition is very simple, I want to see the book coffin first, and then talk about cooperation."

"No problem." The man agreed, "We can meet first, and the time and place of meeting are up to you."

Liu Xing thought for a while and said, "We will meet tomorrow night at Yufeng Mountain in Tianhai City."

"Yufeng Mountain? All right, everything is according to your wishes."
……

Liu Xing and the man quickly reached an agreement and finalized the time and place of the appointment.

The entire call lasted about 10 minutes.

When the call ended, Liu Xing immediately turned off the phone.

The negotiation went so smoothly, a bit beyond his expectations.
Swish!
At this time, there was a rush of footsteps, as if someone was running in this direction.

Judging from the sound of footsteps, there should be more than 20 people who came.

"It's so late, why are there still people on the mountain? Could it be the Golden Gun organization?"

Liu Xing frowned slightly. He had just used his mobile phone, and the signal of the mobile phone might reveal his current location.Theoretically, the Golden Gunner can find Yufengshan by virtue of Liu Xing's mobile phone signal.

The reason why Liu Xing went to Yufeng Mountain to answer the phone tonight was because of this consideration.

The footsteps were getting closer.

With a flash of his figure, Liu Xing soared into the sky, flew to the branch, performed the bone shrinking skill, and hid himself.

Not long after, more than 20 men in black rushed out from all directions and gathered under the big tree at the same time.

These men held two guns in their hands, a black gun in their left hand and a golden gun in their right hand.

It really is the killer of the Golden Gun organization!
After arriving under the big tree, more than 20 killers with the golden gun started looking around.

"Strange, why is there no one?"

"The mobile phone signal clearly shows that the other party is in the vicinity."

"Could it be that the signal was wrong?"

More than 20 killers with the golden gun searched the vicinity for a long time, but found nothing.

At this time, one of the golden gunners picked up the walkie-talkie and reported: "Brother Hu, there is no one on the mountain."

"Why is there no one?" A hoarse man's voice came from the intercom, "I just finished talking with him on the phone, and he must still be on Yufeng Mountain."

"We've already searched Yufeng Mountain, and we can't find anyone at all."

"Check it out again."

"clear."

After that, more than 20 golden gunners searched in the nearby woods again.

After tossing for two hours, I hurried down the mountain.

Liu Xing skimmed down from the tree and followed secretly.

When I came to the foot of the mountain, I saw a few vans parked by the side of the road. Among them, a man was sitting in a white van, about 55 years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a pair of eyes with sharp eyes.

The man was one of the top killers of the Golden Gun organization, named Guo Zihu.

"Brother Hu, we still haven't found anyone." A killer with a golden gun came forward to report.

"Forget it, go back first." Guo Zihu said, "Anyway, I will meet him tomorrow at Yufeng Mountain, and it won't be too late to catch him then."

After the confession, Guo Zihu and more than 20 killers with the golden gun drove away in a van.

Seeing this, Liu Xing basically understood the situation.

"Guo Zihu should be Guo Zibao's older brother, right?"

Guo Zihu and Guo Zibao's looks are [-]% or [-]% similar, so Liu Xing had such a guess.

"If Guo Zibao and Guo Zihu were brothers, things would be much easier."

As long as Liu Xing pretends to be Guo Zibao, he can extract a lot of information from Guo Zihu's mouth and find out the whereabouts of the book coffin.

……

The next night was the day to meet.
At one o'clock in the morning, Guo Zihu came to Yufeng Mountain again, ready to meet Liu Xing.

It's just that after arriving at the woods where the appointment was made, Liu Xing was nowhere to be seen.

Guo Zihu waited for two hours, during which time he kept calling Liu Xing.

Unfortunately, the phone is always turned off.

"You let me dove."

Only then did Guo Zihu realize that he seemed to have been tricked.

Turned around, left the woods, and hurried down the mountain.

When we came to the foot of the mountain, a middle-aged man in his 50s appeared in front of him, wearing black and white clothes. His appearance looked somewhat similar to Guo Zihu.

This man is Liu Xing, who has already used disguise to disguise himself as Guo Zibao.

"Abao?" Guo Zihu was surprised and delighted, and immediately ran over, looking Liu Xing up and down, "Abao, it's really you!"

Seeing Guo Zihu's reaction, Liu Xing knew that he had guessed right. Guo Zibao and Guo Zihu obviously knew each other, and they might be brothers.

"Abao, where have you been all these years?" Guo Zihu asked with concern, "Do you know that I have been looking for you all this time, and I thought you were dead."

With a long sigh, Guo Zihu said with emotion, "You were so impulsive back then, why did you suddenly betray the boss and leave the organization of the Golden Gunners without authorization... Sigh!"

After chatting for a while, Liu Xing learned something.

Guo Zihu and Guo Zibao are brothers, they were originally the top killers of the Golden Gun organization, and they worked for the same boss.

Thirty years ago, Guo Zibao betrayed the Golden Gun organization, escaped by himself, and was hunted down by the Golden Gun organization.

Since then, Guo Zibao has been hiding his name in the novel street, and secretly established a killer organization in Bohai Book City.

"Abao, why are you here?" Guo Zihu asked strangely.

"I live in Yufeng Mountain." Liu Xing lied in Guo Zibao's tone.
"You live in the mountains?" Guo Zihu asked, "By the way, have you seen a mysterious man haunting the area in the past two days?"

"What mysterious man?"

"I made an appointment to meet here tonight with a mysterious man, but he didn't come to the appointment." Guo Zihu introduced, "This man claims to have novels such as "Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji", and he can open book coffins."

Liu Xing followed the words and asked, "What book coffin?"

Guo Zihu moved close to his ear and whispered, "The boss has found a book tomb, and this book tomb is buried in the forbidden book area of ​​Yufeng Story City..."

"The forbidden area?"

Yufeng Story City is divided into several areas, including Romance Area, Science Fiction Area, Martial Arts Area, Competition Area, Criminal Investigation Area and so on.These areas are where the students of the Fiction Academy practice.

However, there is one area that is off-limits, and that's Story City's Restricted Section.

"The forbidden book area seems to be a forbidden area. If the book tomb is in the forbidden book area, you can't enter at all." Liu Xing reminded.

"There is a way to enter the restricted area." Guo Zihu introduced, "Next month, the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest will be held as scheduled. Any writer who wins the top 10 novel contests will have the qualification to enter the restricted area."

Liu Xingdao: "The contestants in the novel competition are top writers from all over the country. How easy is it to enter the top 10?"

Guo Zihu explained: "The boss has already made arrangements, and has secretly bought some top writers. In addition, the judges of the competition also include our people. In short, among the top 10 of the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest, our people must at least get 5 places. At that time, they can enter the restricted area and find the book tomb."

Liu Xing was surprised that the Golden Gun organization actually bought a group of top writers!
Not only bought top writers, but also bought the judges of the contest!
In this way, isn't this year's novel contest already controlled by the Golden Gun organization?
"Abao, it's too dangerous for you to stay in Tianhai City. If the boss finds out, someone will come to kill you. You betrayed the Golden Gun organization back then, and the boss will not let you go." Guo Zihu advised earnestly , "You leave Tianhai City quickly."

The boss he mentioned should refer to the boss behind the Golden Gun organization.

"Where is the boss now?" Liu Xing asked casually.
"The boss never shows up, so who knows where he is?" Guo Zihu said, "However, the boss seems to attach great importance to the tombs in the forbidden book area of ​​Story City. He may come to Tianhai City in person."

Guo Zihu wrote a note and stuffed it into Liu Xing's hand, "This is my mobile phone number, call me if you need something. I still have tasks to do, so I can't chat with you more, let's go first."

After speaking, he patted Liu Xing on the shoulder, and Guo Zihu left in a hurry.

Of course Liu Xing has the ability to capture Guo Zihu, but he did not do so.

Guo Zihu is just a killer of the Golden Gun organization, and he is only acting on orders. From him, the real boss behind the Golden Gun organization still cannot be found.

Therefore, arresting Guo Zihu does not make any sense.

Letting Guo Zihu go, on the contrary, there is an additional source of information. Liu Xing can learn about the latest developments of the Golden Gun organization through Guo Zihu at any time.
Judging from Guo Zihu's description, the book coffin is not in the hands of the Golden Gunners organization, but buried in the forbidden book area of ​​Yufeng Story City.

As long as you can win the top ten in the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest, you will be eligible to enter the restricted area.

"It seems that if you want to find the book coffin, you must participate in the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest."

Liu Xing has never studied novel writing, let alone a writer, so it is naturally impossible for him to participate in the novel competition.

However, he has a better way.

When the novel contest is over, Liu Xing can use the disguise technique to pretend to be the top 10 writers in the novel contest, and then sneak into the forbidden book area of ​​Story City to find the fifth book tomb.

Liu Xing has been invited to serve as the judge of the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest, which provides him with great convenience.
……

seven days later.

Early in the morning, Liu Xing came to Yufeng Fiction Academy.

He didn't come to class, but to attend the jury meeting of the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest.

The novel contest will be officially held next month, and related preparations have already begun.

The Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest is jointly sponsored by the four major novel academies of "Fenghuaxueyue" in Eastern China, namely Yufeng Novel Academy, Lianhua Novel Academy, Taxue Novel Academy and Guanyue Novel Academy.

Therefore, the novel competition is divided into four competition areas, namely Yufeng Competition Area, Lianhua Competition Area, Snow Walking Competition Area and Moon Watching Competition Area.

Liu Xing lives in Tianhai City, so he was invited to be the judge of the Yufeng competition area.

In addition to Liu Xing, there are more than 100 judges in the Yufeng competition area. These judges are all experienced old book appraisers, most of whom are over 60 years old.

Among this group of old book appraisers, Liu Xing, who is only 20 years old, is particularly eye-catching.

"You are the legendary genius book appraiser Liu Xing, right? You have heard your name for a long time!"

"The young people nowadays are really amazing. The blue is better than the blue."

"Yeah, talented people come out from generation to generation, and we are all getting old."

……

In the meeting hall of Xiaoyao Building, more than a dozen old book appraisers were full of praise for Liu Xing.

Among this group of old men were Zhang Qingchen, the president of the Tianhai City Appreciation Association, Zhao Changchun, the president of the Dongling City Appreciation Association, Guo De, the president of the Shangshu City Appreciation Association, and so on.

All of them are highly respected seniors in the Huaxia Guojianshu circle. They have been in charge of the bookmarking work for more than 70 years, and they are ashes-level bigwigs.

Now, Liu Xing needs to work with this group of old guys as the judges of the novel competition.

Several old book appraisers heard that Liu Xing has excellent book appraisal intuition and can quickly judge the level of novels, so they specially found a few novels to test Liu Xing on the spot.

Liu Xing tried his hand and used book eyes to identify the novels one by one.

The accuracy rate of the appraisal result is naturally one hundred percent.

His performance left this group of veteran book appraisers dumbfounded.

"It's unbelievable, Xiao Liu's book appreciation talent is rare in a hundred years!"

"His intuition for appreciating books is probably comparable to that of the Book King!"

"With Xiao Liu in charge this year, the champion of this year's novel competition may appear in the Yufeng Division."

"Our Yufeng Division has not won the championship for 20 consecutive years, and we hope to make a comeback this year!"

……
The Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest is divided into four competition areas, and the four competition areas are secretly competing, hoping that the champion of the competition will come from their own competition area.

As of this year, the Novel Contest has been held for 19 sessions, and the Yufeng Division has only won three championships in total.

The last time he won the championship was 20 years ago.

Although the contestants of the novel contest are writers, the judges are also a factor that cannot be ignored.

Because the works participating in the finals are all selected by the judges of each division.If the judges cannot select the best works in the sub-divisions, they will definitely suffer in the finals.

Yufeng District has not won the championship for 20 consecutive years. Whether it is a writer or a judge, they feel a little disgraceful on their faces.

After witnessing Liu Xing's unbelievable talent for appraising books, Zhang Qingchen and other veteran book appraisers suddenly had more expectations for this novel contest.

"Mr. Zhang, everyone is here."

"Okay, let's have a meeting first!"

After that, more than 100 book appraisers began to meet in Xiaoyao Building to discuss some issues related to the work of the judges of the novel competition.

At the meeting, the management of the Yufeng competition area jury was also elected.

Among them, Zhang Qingchen served as the chairman of the judging committee of the Yufeng competition area, Zhao Changchun served as the vice chairman, and Guo De served as the director of the office.

As for Liu Xing, he serves as a special advisor to the jury of the Yufeng competition area.

……

More than a month later.

The biennial Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest officially kicks off...
