Chapter 12: The Feast of the Virtuous
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, there were only less than two days left before the Lancang Jiufeng assessment.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door of the courtyard, and Li Yi hurriedly came to the door and opened the courtyard door.
As soon as the courtyard door opened, Wu Mochou saw Li Yi, squinted at the mess in the courtyard, and said with a smile: "Li Xiaoyou has improved a lot in the past few days, it's crackling, but it shocked my whole house!"
Li Yi scratched his head and smiled, and then said: "It's okay, it's just that the courtyard of the Wu City Lord has been damaged, and I hope that the Wu City Lord will forgive the sin." ”
Wu Mochou laughed, "Xiaoyou, you are really good at laughing, by the way, there is a gathering banquet tonight, if Xiaoyou has time, you can go with me." ”
"Juxian Banquet?"
Li Yileng paused, and then asked, "What kind of banquet?"
Wu Mochou said with a smile: "The Juxian banquet held by the great prince of Yan Kingdom, every time Lancang Jiufeng wants to start the entrance assessment, there will be geniuses from all over Yan Kingdom coming to the imperial capital, for these geniuses, the royal family of Yan Kingdom will naturally not despise them, therefore, His Majesty the Lord of the Kingdom will send a prince to receive these geniuses for him." ”
Li Yi groaned slightly, and then said, "It shouldn't be that everyone can participate, right?"
Wu Mochou nodded, "This is natural, only those who have status and strength are qualified to participate in this Juxian Banquet, or in other words, those who can participate in this banquet are almost 100% able to enter the Lancang Nine Peaks, otherwise, they will not be invited from above." ”
Li Yi smiled bitterly, "City Lord Wu, I don't seem to have received an invitation!"
Wu Mochou said with a straight face: "Li Xiaoyou, you can go with me, then what kind of invitation do you want." If you can, it's better to go for a trip, all of you go are the geniuses of this year, and if you can make some friends, it's also good for you. Even if you don't want to make friends, it's good to know the details of these geniuses!"
Li Yi thought for a moment, then nodded.
As Wu Mochou said, it is also good to be able to make some friends, and besides, he also wants to see these geniuses and demons in Yan Kingdom!
Wu Mochou nodded and said with a smile: "Then please prepare Xiaoyou, and we will set off later!"
......
After a while, Wu Mochou left the mansion with Li Yi and his group, and soon, they came to a restaurant in the center of the imperial capital.
Joan Louju!
Qionglouju is the largest restaurant in the imperial capital, with seven floors high, the outer layer of glazed lacquer gold, extremely luxurious and noble, and there is a couplet at the door:
Look at the blue sea and blue sky,
Sigh Qionglou Yuyu!
Seeing this restaurant, Li Yi was a little shocked. Even the little fat man Wu Yifan on the side was shocked, in his Mowen City, there was no such luxurious, such an atmospheric restaurant!
Seeing the expressions of the two, Wu Mochou smiled, "This is not the biggest, if you go out to see more in the future, you will find that the world is so big, there are no surprises!"
Li Yi nodded, he thought deeply about this! If it weren't for this Hanjiang City, otherwise, he would have been sitting in the Ye family for the rest of his life and watching the sky!
Wu Mochou took the two of them into the Qionglou Residence, and a good-looking woman immediately greeted her, "But don't ask the city, City Lord Wu?"
Wu Mochou nodded.
The woman smiled coquettishly, "There is still half an hour before the opening of the Juxian banquet, and the eldest prince has already arranged a top-grade beauty for the city lord of Wu, can the city lord of Wu wash the dust first?"
Hearing this, Wu Mochou's old face was slightly red, and he hurriedly shook his head, "No need, take me to see the eldest prince first." ”
The woman nodded, and took Wu Mochou and Li Yi and them upstairs, and when they reached the seventh floor, Li Yi was stunned by the scene in front of him.
This seventh floor is an open-air square, very large, larger than the mansion of the lord of Wu, and inside, extremely luxurious, surrounded by golden splendor, like a palace, even the feet, are paved by glass sheets, and you can clearly see the flowing water and live fish below.
"! I finally understood, the one at the door: look at the blue sea and blue sky, sigh Qionglou Yuyu. What does that mean?"
On the side, the little fat man Wu Yifan exclaimed, stepped on the glass piece under his feet again, and sighed: "Dad, this is the glass piece of Tianji Pavilion, which is made of rare earth reinforced with metal true qi, and is fired by using fire true qi to control the fire......! This Qionglou residence is too exaggerated!"
Hearing this, Li Yi shook his head and smiled, "The happiness of rich people is unimaginable!"
Wu Mochou smiled, "Little friend, this Qionglou is the property of Tianji Pavilion, and the wealth of Tianji Pavilion is not qualified to be richer than them. ”
As he spoke, he glanced into the distance, and then said, "Li Xiaoyou, wait a while, I'll come when I go!"
With that, he walked briskly into the distance.
At this moment, a young man came over and hugged his fist at Li Yi, "This brother has just come, right?
Li Yi nodded and smiled, clenched his fists and returned the salute, "Scatter one, Li Yi!"
"Loose cultivation?"
The young man was slightly stunned, his expression changed, and he glanced at Li Yi, "Don't leave it at that!"
With that, he turned and left.
Li Yi: "......."
The young man walked aside, and he hugged his fist at a man who had just come upstairs, "In the lower Huang family, Huang Shiren, who is the brother?"
The man returned the salute with a fist, "Xiao Yan, the son of the Xiao family in Xiapan Dragon City!"
Hearing this, the young man was taken aback, "The Xiao family of Panlong City, the capital of Feiyun County?"
The man nodded, "Exactly!"
The young man hurriedly grabbed the man's arm and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao, as soon as you come up, you will be attracted by your heroic appearance below, today you and I will see each other, come, come and come, don't get drunk tonight and don't return......"
Seeing this scene, Li Yi was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he shook his head and smiled, "Different places, different people, but the same recipe, still a familiar taste!"
At this time, Wu Mochou walked over, and in front of him, there was a man wearing a golden silk four-clawed dragon robe, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a handsome appearance and a faint majesty between his eyebrows.
The man walked in front of Li Yi, looked at him, and said with a smile: "This must be Brother Li Yi." ”
Li Yi looked at Wu Mochou, and Wu Mochou hurriedly said: "Li Xiaoyou, this is An Chongtian, the great prince of our Yan Kingdom. ”
Li Yi was slightly stunned, and then he hugged his fist at the eldest prince, "Scattered Li Yi." ”
The eldest prince nodded and said with a smile: "Brother Li Yi really deserves to be the person valued by the city lord of Wu, he is neither humble nor arrogant, it seems that in the future, he will have to be closer and closer!"
Li Yi was about to speak, but at this moment, a somewhat excited voice suddenly sounded in the audience: "Shen Sha, Miss Shen is here." ”
Hearing this voice, the eyes of everyone in the audience suddenly looked at the staircase.
The eldest prince in front of Li Yi also looked at the staircase, hurriedly sorted out his clothes, and then walked over.
Seeing this scene, Wu Mochou wanted to stop talking, but in the end he didn't say anything, he was naturally from the eldest prince's side. This time, I also wanted to introduce Li Yi to the eldest prince, but he didn't reveal too much about Li Yi, but just told the eldest prince that Li Yi was a sword cultivator with excellent talent. Now seeing that the eldest prince is so bland, he wants to say a few more words, but he is afraid of Tianji Pavilion, so he doesn't say anything.
It's good that the introduction can't be successful, if you let Tianji Pavilion know, then it really outweighs the loss!
In the midst of everyone's gaze, a woman walked up from the bottom of the stairs.
The woman is about twenty years old, wearing a red long dress, and her appearance is excellent, if she is still a little worse than Mu Yingying, but she is also a good beauty.
Li Yi retracted his gaze and looked at Wu Mochou beside him, "City Lord Wu, who is this person?"
Wu Mochou smiled: "Shen Sha, it is said to be the most beautiful in the imperial capital!"
Li Yileng paused, and then subconsciously said, "What about Mu Yingying?"
Wu Mochou said with a smile: "Miss Mu is famous in hundreds of countries, but she rarely misses her face in the world, so other people's impression of her is not on her appearance, Li Xiaoyou understands, right?"
Hearing this, Li Yi understood.
With the arrival of this Shen Sha, everyone's eyes in the audience were focused on her, and everyone also surrounded her, like stars and moons.
Beside Li Yi, Wu Mochou suddenly said: "This Shen Sha is not just beautiful, it is said that behind her is a pavilion master of Tianji Pavilion. Now several princes of Yan Kingdom are competing for the position of the crown prince, if any of them can marry her, then the position of the prince will almost be stable. It's a pity that this Shen Sha's eyes are higher than the top, and she once threatened that no one in Yan Kingdom is worthy of her. ”
At this time, Wu Yifan, the little fat man next to Li Yi, suddenly said: "I think Brother Li can!"
Li Yi glanced at the little fat man, "I, I have no power and no roots, in her eyes, I'm afraid it's not even a grass!"
Wu Mochou laughed, "Li Xiaoyou don't want to be arrogant, Li Xiaoyou is young and promising, if you have a heart, everything is possible!"
He didn't know who the person behind Li Yi was, but he knew one thing, not only was Li Yi not dead that day, but he hadn't been imprisoned in a prison that day. Later, there was some gossip that two Heavenly Machine Pavilion Masters died that day! Come to think of it, it must not be simple behind all this!
Li Yi shook his head and smiled, he glanced at Shen Sha in the distance, this kind of woman is arrogant, her eyes are higher than the zenith, he is not that interested.
The banquet gradually began, Li Yi and the little fat man Wu Yifan and Wu City Lord were at the same table, and the table was full of all kinds of delicacies, and it was still on the table.
Li Yi and the little fat man were eating happily, while everyone around them was drinking and chatting with each other, only they were eating like crazy!
Seeing this scene, Wu Mochou shook his head and smiled bitterly, turned his head to look into the distance, and then said, "You eat first, a few old acquaintances have come, I'll go say hello!"
Li Yi and neither of them responded to him, Wu Mochou shook his head and smiled, got up and left.
The little fat man sandwiched a few cabbages for Li Yi and a big chicken leg for himself, "Brother Li, you are such a cow, you have to learn not to eat other people's fireworks, eat more vegetarian dishes, and give me this chicken leg." ”
Li Yi: "......"
On the other side, there was an additional veiled beauty beside Shen Sha, and this woman was the beautiful woman on the sea boat of the Machine Pavilion that day.
Although the beautiful woman was talking to Shen Sha, her eyes fell on Li Yi in the far corner from time to time, and she didn't expect that Li Yi would appear here.
Sensing the beautiful woman's gaze, Shen Sha glanced at Li Yi in the distance, "Sister Qian, do you know that person?"
The beautiful woman nodded slightly.
Shen Sha laughed and said: "What kind of son is it, it is not easy to make a chaste and fierce girl like Sister Qian, and she has a spring heart again!"
The beautiful woman shook her head, "Sister Sha, what are you talking about? I've only dealt with him once or twice, and I'm not very familiar with him." ”
The corners of Shen Sha's mouth lifted slightly, glanced at Li Yi in the distance, and smiled like a fox, "I'm not very familiar, so you look at him three times and twice?"
The beautiful woman's cheeks were slightly red, "Sister Sha, don't talk nonsense, I've only dealt with him twice, I just saw him, but I didn't expect him to appear here." ”
