Chapter 35 Exchange Conference
After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of a clue, Xiao Qi simply threw it aside, and when he came back to his senses, Li Zhuang was still chattering, Xiao Qi pushed the teacup in front of him, and watched him take the teacup and drink it all in a funny way, and asked, "After talking for so long, you are so thirsty?" ”
Li Zhuang nodded, his thoughts were still stuck on the previous topic and did not come out, "Brother Xiao, I think it is best for me and you, we can do whatever we want, and Master will not let us do those thankless things." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Xiao Qi smiled and shook his head, but he didn't speak, no one like them cared about what's good.
I'm fine, I'm old. Li Zhuang is still young and his temperament is undecided, so what good is it to be raised without anyone to teach him.
Li Zhuang poured a cup of tea, held it in his hand and said, "Brother Xiao, do you know the exchange conference in a month?" ”
"Exchange conference?"
Li Zhuang said excitedly, "Yes, all the elders and disciples in the gate will participate in the time, which can be regarded as the most lively time in the Xiaoyao Gate." ”
Xiao Qi shook his head, "I am inaccessible here, unlike you where there are many senior brothers, there will always be someone to tell you something." My master and brother were so busy that they had never heard the news of the conference. ”
Li Zhuang looked at him sympathetically, patted his chest and promised, "Brother Xiao, don't worry." I'll come and tell you anything in the future, and I've decided that you won't miss any of the big events! ”
Xiao Qi looked at him and smiled faintly, "Thank you, but it's just a little troublesome for you." ”
Li Zhuang waved his hand very chicly, learned from the appearance of a hero in the green forest, and said heroically, "What's this, it's just a few trips." Besides, I can also take this opportunity to practice my flying skills more. ”
After speaking, he swore to Xiao Qi, "Brother Xiao, when I come over next time, I will definitely fly better than now." ”
Xiao Qi was very sure of his words, "Of course, you are so smart, but you can fly steadily in a few days." ”
After receiving Xiao Qi's praise, Li Zhuang smiled, trembling and fluttering into the air, and flew away left and right.
After sending Li Zhuang away, within a few days, Xuan Jin, who had not been seen for several months, came to visit.
As the sun sets, everything in the small courtyard is dyed with a thin layer of golden yellow, Xiao Qi is dressed in white and sitting on the stone bench, his hair is covered with a faint halo under the reflection of the afterglow, the whole courtyard is like a silent picture, only the slight white gas of the teapot on the stone table proves that all this is true.
When Xuanjin pushed the door in, he saw Xiao Qi wearing golden light, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he was pouring tea with his hand. When the tea was poured into the teacup, the sound of gurgling water made Xuanjin anxious, and he only felt that Xiao Qi, who was sitting quietly at this time, was dazzling and piercing.
Xiao Qi turned around, his angular eyebrows and eyes were much softer by the halo on weekdays, and said loudly, "Senior Brother Xuanjin is really here, the tea that has just been brewed, come and taste the craftsmanship of Senior Brother?" ”
Xuan Jin suppressed the irritability in his heart, strode to sit opposite Xiao Qi, picked up the teacup in front of him and put it under his snort, and praised, "I didn't expect your tea art to be so good, junior brother, then I'm welcome." ”
After finishing speaking, he drank the teacup and drank it all, Xiao Qi frowned in surprise, "Senior Brother Xuanjin, what happened to you?" ”
Xuan Jin smiled bitterly, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't suppress his temper, and it seemed that he still couldn't get home. Unnaturally, he said, "It's all some miscellaneous things, and they don't get in the way." After drinking this cup of tea from my junior brother, my heart is already much happier. ”
Xiao Qi nodded, refilled another cup for Xuan Jin, and persuaded, "If that's the case, then Senior Brother just drink." This little thing, the junior brother can still afford it. ”
Xuan Jin tasted the tea carefully, until the anxiety in his heart was mostly gone, and then he said, "It stands to reason that my junior brother has just apprenticed, and I should take more time to explain the affairs of the sect to my junior brother." It's just..."
Xuan Jin wanted to speak and stopped, Xiao Qi persuaded, "Senior brother may as well say it directly." ”
Xuan Jin continued, "It's just that it's not long before the exchange conference, I'm really too busy to take a break, and my junior brother won't blame me, right?" ”
"Senior Brother Xuanjin is serious, I don't have anything to do here, it's still important to have internal affairs."
Seeing that Xiao Qi didn't pay attention to it at all, Xuan Jin's heart was blocked, "Senior brother, do you know about the exchange conference?" ”
"Two days ago, a junior brother I knew when I was at Yucai Peak came to see me once and talked to me in general terms, but it was not specific."
Xuan Jin nodded, "Then I'll talk to my junior brother about this exchange conference." ”
"To say that this exchange conference is a custom that has existed since the founding of Xiaoyaomen, and it is impossible to know how it arises. After hundreds of years of development, it has become one of the biggest events in my Xiaoyaomen. The whole exchange conference is mainly based on competition, and each mountain peak will send at least one person to participate in the challenge, in the form of a ring competition, standing in the end is the winner, regardless of life or death! ”
Xiao Qi looked up in amazement, "Life or death?" ”
"Yes, even if there are few disciples in the door, there will still be some contradictions, fighting is prohibited on weekdays, and the only place to solve the contradictions is this annual exchange meeting."
Xuan Jin raised his head and continued with a proud expression, "Besides, cultivators are fighting for their lives with the heavens, if they can't even think through this, how can they fight with the heavens!" ”
Xiao Qi was silent, lowered his eyes and looked at the tea cup in front of him for a long time without saying a word.
Xuan Jin comforted, "Senior brother, don't worry, not every fight will have a life-and-death struggle, only those who have old grudges will act like this." ”
Xiao Qi nodded and changed the topic, "Is there only a competition in the exchange conference?" Are there any other projects? ”
"Of course it's more than that. In addition to the competition, there will also be some things that have been accumulated on weekdays to be sold or exchanged. However, these are mostly private transactions between disciples, and the sect will not interfere. There are also some brothers who like to gamble and will bet on the situation of the competition, and they are all things like spirit grass and spirit stones. ”
Xiao Qi sighed lightly, only feeling that he was really poor and white in this free gate, and there was not a single spirit grass or spirit stone.
"Senior brother, I don't know how to get these things like spirit grass and spirit stones?"
Xuan Jin smiled, "I actually forgot to tell my junior brother that the disciples in the sect can receive two medium-grade spirit stones every month, and if you want more, you have to do the task of the sect yourself." Spirit grass can be planted by yourself, but the seeds are also bought by spirit stones, and some tasks will also reward spirit grass. ”
Xiao Qi nodded, it seems that this Xiaoyao Gate is not as good as he originally thought, and all the expenses for cultivation have to be earned by himself. But think about it, if the sect supports these people for free, I'm afraid that no matter how much wealth it has, it will be consumed in a few generations.
