Chapter 66 The Secret of Novel Street
"Ah Xing, wake up."

In the early morning, with a sweet voice, Liu Xing woke up, put on his clothes, and when he walked out of the room, he found Liu Shiming standing at the door. Her face was full of joy, as if something great happened.

"A Xing, there is good news"

Liu Shiming said a little excitedly, "Last night, Lu Yuxin invited me to dinner and talked to me about the Taoshu team. Isn't Lu's Wine Industry planning to sponsor a team of Taoshu? Leave it to me."

Liu Xing suddenly realized that the last time Lu Yuxin told him about this matter, he did not expect it to be implemented so soon.

Participating in the Taoshu team may not be a big deal to ordinary people, but to Liu Shiming, it is a great joy.

Liu Shiming has been curious since she was a child, and she has a special liking for archaeological work.

In the college entrance examination that year, Liu Shiming's total score ranked No.3 in Tianhai City. With this score, he could enter any major in all key universities in Huaxia.However, Liu Shiming finally chose the extremely unpopular major of archaeology, determined to become an archaeologist.

Right now, the most exciting archaeological puzzle in Huaxia Kingdom is naturally the book coffin. Liu Shiming is now appointed as the captain of the book scouring team, and being able to participate in the book scouring plan to find the book coffin is almost the most wonderful thing for her thing.

"Ah Xing, you really helped me a lot this time." Liu Shiming said happily, "If you hadn't recommended it to Lu Yuxin, I definitely wouldn't have such a good opportunity."

"Sister, if you want to thank me, cook something delicious to reward me."

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

"Let's make dumplings!"

"Dumplings?" Liu Shiming was puzzled, "What are dumplings?"

"Uh..." Liu Xing suddenly remembered that there is no such food as dumplings in China, and said, "Dumplings are... reduce the size of the buns by two-thirds, make the skin thinner, and put them in water cook in."

Liu Shiming raised her eyebrows and rehearsed the entire dumpling-making process in her mind, asking, "Put the buns in water and boil them, will this be delicious?"

Liu Xing said: "The key is to make the dumpling wrappers thin and firm, without sticking to the pan."

"Oh." Liu Shiming thought for a while, pondered for a while, and said, "Okay, I'll try it when I have time. By the way, Ah Xing, how did you know about dumplings?"

"In a food novel..."

……

After breakfast, Liu Shiming started to make dumplings. She should be the first person in China to try making dumplings.

As for Liu Xing, he left the hotel alone, went to the Tianyuan Book Bar, and continued to dig the book coffin in the secret room.

A two-meter-deep hole had been dug in the secret room, but it was blocked by a layer of black magma, making it impossible to dig any deeper.

Black magma is the material for building the tomb of books, which means that there should be a tomb of books underground. As long as you find the entrance of the tomb of books, you can enter the tomb.

The ground cannot be dug deep, Liu Xing can only expand the excavation area.

Holding the field shovel, he buried himself in a fixed direction to dig the pit, constantly expanding the scope of the pit.

Eight hours later, a narrow channel about 6 meters long was dug.During the entire excavation process, the ground was always filled with black magma, indicating that the size of the tomb is not small.

"Ok?"

While digging, a straight crack unexpectedly appeared on the black black magma!

The crack is very thin, but it is more than one meter long. When the surrounding soil is dug open, it is found that the crack is not a straight line, but a rectangle.

"Is this crack a door?"

Crouching down, Liu Xing took a closer look, with excitement on his face, this crack should be an entrance!
An entrance to the catacombs.

Scanning his eyes, he saw a strange groove beside the crack. The groove was about 2 centimeters deep, showing the shape of a palm.

"What is this?"

Subconsciously, Liu Xing put his palm into the groove and pushed it hard.

hum!
Suddenly, the black magma ground under his feet trembled slightly, and then, the original cracks in the ground suddenly increased, like a black stone door built on the ground, slowly opened.

Not long after, a rectangular opening opened on the ground, about 2 meters long and 1 meter wide.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xing was both surprised and happy. He stood at the opening and glanced down.

"Is the cemetery below?"

There is a pitch-black underground space below the opening, and nothing can be seen at all. Liu Xing turned on the light of the mobile phone and decided to go down to have a look.

If it was before, he might not have the courage to enter such an underground tomb, but since he became fascinated by "Dragon Babu", he seemed to have tried in the martial arts world of "Dragon Babu". Naturally, it is also much larger.

With the light of the mobile phone, I saw a stone staircase under the rectangular opening. The stone staircase is more than 20 meters long and leads to the deep underground tomb.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Xing stepped into the opening and walked down the stone ladder, step by step, to the bottom of the tomb. After walking through dozens of stone steps, he reached the bottom of the tomb.

This tomb is more than 20 meters deep!

The tomb was pitch black, you couldn't see your fingers, and it was so quiet that you could almost hear your own heartbeat.

The mobile phone illuminated the light, and unexpectedly saw a red switch on the wall of the tomb beside him, and Liu Xing pressed the switch——

Whoa!
The surroundings suddenly lit up, and dozens of white lights were turned on at the same time, illuminating the entire tomb.

Gathering his mind, Liu Xing looked around and couldn't help being startled.

What appeared in front of us was a large underground secret room. The secret room was rectangular, like a long underground corridor. Although the width was only about 4 meters, the length was about 100 meters.

On both sides of the secret room, 200 golden bookshelves are neatly arranged. At first glance, it looks like a golden underground Great Wall, which is particularly eye-catching and imposing!
"Is this the tomb of books?"

Liu Xing was very surprised. He thought it was just a book coffin buried here, but unexpectedly there are 200 golden bookshelves, and the bookshelves are full of books.

It's more like an underground library.

Walking to the first row of bookshelves, Liu Xing scanned his eyes, and the titles of the books that caught his eyes were all weird, such as "Black Finance", "Money is Everything", "Laundering-Money Record", "Burning, Banknotes", "Thick Black Financial Merchant", "Money Rivers and Lakes", "Evil Way of Wealth Raiders" and so on.

These titles reveal a discordant atmosphere of money, and Liu Xing has never read them all.

Judging from the titles, these novels seem to be about money.

Liu Xing took down a copy of "Black Finance" at random. The cover was black, and there was a picture of information fluctuations in the financial market printed on it, and he flipped through the novel.

[Book Title] "Black Finance"

【Type】Financial Novel

【Grade】One star
[Matching degree] 1.7%
"A one-star financial novel?"

Financial novels are a common type of novel in China, and this type of novel is a double-edged sword.It can cultivate people's interest in finance and easily stimulate people's desire for money. Once addicted to it, they will become money worshipers.In order to make money, they may take risks, go astray, and become criminals who do all kinds of evil.

This "Black Finance" tells the story of using loopholes in the financial system to earn illegal economic benefits.It is impossible to buy a financial novel like this in a regular bookstore. It is obviously a forbidden book.

Putting "Black Finance" back on the shelf, another novel caught Liu Xing's attention. It was a novel with a golden cover, which was placed in the center of the shelf. Banknotes are particularly conspicuous.

【Title】"Money is everything"

【Type】Financial Novel

【Grade】Four-star
[Matching degree] 15.4%
"four-star?"

Liu Xing felt unbelievable, it was the first time in his life that he saw a novel with the theme of money, unexpectedly it was a four-star novel!
Flipping through it casually, this book "Money is Everything" tells a story about making money, and it introduces how to change from a commoner to a billionaire. The book contains a lot of knowledge about financial business and provides many Illegal means of making money, it can be seen that the author of the book has very rich knowledge and experience in finance.

At the same time, the plot of this novel is thrilling and fascinating. From the perspective of creation, it is indeed a rare masterpiece, no wonder it is a four-star novel.

Liu Xing paid special attention to it. The author of "Money is Everything" is Jin Santong.

"Golden Three Links? Where did you hear this name?"

After that, Liu Xing continued to check the novels on the bookshelf.

"Burning, Money", a financial novel, two stars, matching 1.6%;

"Thick Black Financial Merchant", a financial novel, one star, matching 2.6%;

"Money Laundering - Record of Wind and Cloud", a financial novel, none, matching 0.9%;

……

More than 30 novels were detected in a row, all of which were financial novels, and a quarter of them were star novels.

"What the hell is this place? Why are there so many financial novels?"

Liu Xing wandered among several rows of bookshelves, and found that almost every row of bookshelves were filled with financial novels. It was like a library of financial novels!

"Whose library does this belong to?"

He searched the bookshelves row by row, and when he got to the second row upside down, he saw some different titles: "Rules for Members of Money Book Club", "Development Plan of Money Book Club", "Files of Money Book Club Members", "Qian Book Club" Financial Reports, etc.

"Money Book Club? What?"

Liu Xing searched in his mind, and finally recalled the relevant information.

Money Book Club, like Goddess Book Club, is a reading club organized by book fans. These book fans are all fans of the novel "Money Is Everything".

Thirty-nine years ago, Qianqian Book Club sprung up and grew rapidly, becoming the most influential book fan organization in China.

The president of Money Book Club is Jin Santong, the author of the novel "Money is Everything".

Jin Santong is a top novelist, but he is also a money worshiper.In order to earn more wealth, Jin Santong began to use the members of the Money Book Club to carry out illegal financial activities. After that, the situation gradually got out of control, and even violent acts such as theft and robbery occurred.

The money book club had a bad impact on the society at that time, so the Huaxia police set up a special case team to crack down severely.Four years later, Jin Santong, the president of Money Publishing House, was arrested by the police, and the publishing house collapsed.

After being arrested, Jin Santong committed suicide in prison, and the case about Qian Publishing House came to an end.

Money Book Club has an illegal library, which contains a large number of illegal financial novels.These novels are easy to lead people astray and lose their minds by the desire for money.The Huaxia police have always wanted to find the illegal library of the Money Book Club, but unfortunately, after Jin Santong committed suicide, no one knew the location of the library.

In the past 35 years, the Huaxia police have made repeated investigations, but so far nothing has been found.

"Could this be the library of the Money Book Club?"

Liu Xing suddenly realized that there were not only a large number of financial novels in the library, but also many secret materials of Qianqian Publishing House, including membership records, files, financial reports and so on.

There are various indications that this is the library of the Money Publishing House, which the police have been searching for for 35 years.

"How come the library of Money Book Club is located in Novel Street?"

Just when Liu Xing was wondering, another book on the bookshelf caught his attention. The title of the book was "Construction Plan for Novel Street in Tianhai City".

When I opened it, I found that there were many architectural construction drawings of Novel Street in the book. The designer of these construction drawings was actually Jin Santong.

After that, Liu Xing found several similar books from the bookshelf, including "Fiction Street's Future 30-Year Plan", "On the Important Influence of Fiction Street in the Development of Money Book Club", "Design Plan for Fiction Street's Underground Bookstore", "Fiction Street Project Financial Report", "Novel Street Project Building Materials Report" and so on.

The printing time of these books was all 39 years ago, which was the time when Novel Street was built!
"Fiction Street is a project planned by Jin Santong?"

After reading these books, Liu Xing discovered an incredible thing. It turns out that Novel Street was built by Jin Santong 39 years ago.

39 years ago, Jin Santong decided to build a novel street in order to expand Qianqian Publishing House.Novel Street is a paradise for book buyers. Whoever controls Novel Street is equivalent to controlling all readers.

Therefore, Jin Santong bribed several high-level officials of the reading alliance, and then built a novel street in Tianhai City in the name of the reading alliance.

The construction team responsible for the construction of Novel Street is all from Jin Santong.During the construction process, Jin Santong secretly built an illegal library under the novel street, which is unknown to the outside world.

Jin Santong originally wanted to use the Novel Street to realize his grand ambitions, but shortly after the Novel Street was built, he was arrested by the police and committed suicide in prison.

With Jin Santong's death, the secrets of Fiction Street, like the library in front of me, were buried deep underground. In a blink of an eye, it has been 35 years.

"This underground library was built by Jin Santong more than 30 years ago, and the structure of the library was designed by Jin Santong himself." Liu Xing frowned slightly, "What does this library have to do with the book coffin? By the way, where is the book coffin? "

Liu Xing suddenly remembered that he came down to look for the book coffin. He scanned the surroundings and began to search...

"Huh? Strange!"
