"I crush the disciple of the Heavenly Master of Maoshan King, Master Mo Rong!"

"I'm the master of Chengjun!"

"I press..."

In the Chunfeng Restaurant, everyone is bustling and noisy, and the shopkeeper is very busy, all because of this virtuous talent.

Tomorrow after New Year's Day, it will be a virtuous talent.

In the past few days, there have been significantly more people in Daxingcheng, men, women, old, young, Central Plains, Turkic, everyone, all kinds of languages and all kinds of costumes fill the entire imperial center.

"I didn't expect this sage to have such a big influence." Xiao Yu stood on the railing of the second floor and muttered to himself.

Xiao Yu has been staying at home almost these days, meditating and studying magic every day. After the last battle, with the help of the Dao Qi Box, Xiao Yu absorbed a large amount of Dao Qi, and his Dao Qi Tree really grew three or four zhang as he expected, and the Dao Source Land also expanded a lot.

"That's natural, my Great Sui is strong now, who doesn't want to show his face in front of the Great Sui Emperor?" Han Liyan looked at the crowd below and said proudly.

"But I heard that the saint is in Jiangdu today, and the imperial court should find a respected official to preside, and I don't know who it will be." Qinghua Taoist continued the conversation on the side.

Xiao Yu glanced at the Qinghua Daoist.

It's rare that this Taoist priest has changed his sex, and for more than ten days, the Qinghua Taoist locked himself in the Xuandu Temple and didn't come out, I heard that he was understanding some profound Taoism. The Qinghua Daoist has the support of a large sect, and he is expected to make a lot of progress.

Xiao Yu has carefully studied the talents in the past few days. The sages are mainly aimed at cultivators and martial artists from all over the world, and the conference is divided into two parts: cultivation and martial arts. Reckless heroes who don't know how to practice Taoism and magic can sign up to compete in the martial arts part, but cultivators can also participate in the martial arts part, but they are not allowed to use Taoism and magic.

The process of the two parts of the competition is the same, first the primary selection, and then the second selection, after each part selects 10 people, they no longer fight each other, but each shows their skills and force, and the final ranking is personally selected by the emperor or the high-ranking official of the court who presides over the conference.

Being able to obtain the affirmation of the imperial court is a fatal temptation for many people who are determined to do a great career but come from a poor background, so people with lofty ideals all over the world are eager to win the talents every year.

It seems that the competition pressure of this virtuous talent is not small, Xiao Yu thought secretly.

"Daoist, do you want to gamble? Let's press ten taels each, and see who earns more in the end? "Han Liyan and Qinghua Daoren are reconciled again.

"Bet on whom, who's afraid of whom. Hmph, a bunch of fools," the Qinghua Daoist glanced down disdainfully, "The really capable cultivators like to cultivate in Qingxiu, so their reputations are not very prominent. In my opinion, the top of the rankings is not easy to win. ”

"So, who do you choose?" Han Liyan blinked.

"Nonsense, of course I chose Brother Xiao. I don't know Brother Xiao's ability yet, it must be the first, no matter how bad it is, the top ten can always enter, I will all press Brother Xiao for these ten taels. ”

"Don't, don't, Qinghua, you listen to me." Xiao Yu hurriedly waved his hand.

But it's still a step slow.

"Hey, shopkeeper, I'm going to press." The Qinghua Daoist howled out with full anger.

The people downstairs were shocked by such a sudden voice and quieted down, and they all raised their heads to look at Xiao Yu.

"Qinghua, don't make trouble! Don't, Thanh Hoa! "The most uncomfortable thing for Xiao Yu is that he suddenly became the focus of everyone.

Han Liyan stood to the side with her hands behind her back, waiting to watch the excitement.

"Okay, who is the chief going to press? Or a disciple of a certain sect? The shopkeeper of the restaurant asked with a smile as he stood below.

It turns out that the village of Chunfeng Restaurant is divided into two kinds, one directly presses specific contestants, and the other is presses a certain sect. If you suppress the sect, no matter who it is, as long as the disciple of the sect wins in the end, the difficulty is much less, and of course the reward is much less.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were gathered on him, Qinghua Daoist was even more interested, and his thin face stretched out of the railing and continued to howl, "I will press 5 taels of both kinds, Xiao Yuhe, and, by the way, Brother Xiao, I haven't asked your teacher yet, which sect are you?" ”

"I don't know!" Xiao Yu replied angrily.

"Xiao what? What pie? "The shopkeeper didn't hear clearly.

"Brother Xiao, which sect are you? Alas, forget it," Qinghua Dao replied with a wave of his hand nonchalantly, "Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu, it's him, he is the big disciple of the Daxingcheng faction." ”

Qinghua Daoist pointed at Xiao Yu.

The crowd below exploded with a bang.

"Who is Xiao Yu?"

"I don't know, have you heard of the Daxingcheng faction?"

"This kid is crazy, what kind of faction name is this."

"That's it, you look at the way he looks, and I'm embarrassed to participate."

"That's it, it's still a big disciple, don't be ashamed."

The shopkeeper also has a black line on his face, this Taoist priest won't be playing tricks on me, I've lived here for so many years, and I've never heard of any "Daxingcheng faction"?

"Hahaha." Han Liyan laughed so much that tears came down, and she laughed while rubbing her stomach, "No, no, Taoist, I really have you, haha." ”

Xiao Yu's lungs were about to explode on one side, but the Qinghua Daoist still thought that he had done a good job, and made a thin face as if he was invited, "How about it, Brother Xiao, your fame has risen a lot in an instant, thanks to my cleverness." Hey, Brother Xiao, why are you rolling up your sleeves? Are you lucky? Hey, Brother Xiao, ah! What are you doing! ”

"Ahh A scream. The Qinghua Daoist was thrown sideways from the second floor.

......

New Year's Eve has finally arrived, and this is the first New Year's Day that Xiao Yu has spent outside.

Han Liyan and Qinghua Daoren did not keep the New Year with their families and fellow doors, but chose to accompany themselves in the inn, which made Xiao Yu very moved.

"Master, it's good for the apprentice to be outside, you don't have to worry, I hope your old man must take care of his health, wait for the apprentice to become famous all over the world, and then our master and apprentice will return to Motianling in style." Xiao Yu kowtowed respectfully three times in the direction of Motianling.

"Brother Xiao, don't be sad, Master Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely be fine." Han Liyan comforted softly.

"To Brother Xiao, come on, let's take a seat, the dishes are almost cold." The Qinghua Taoist limped and served the last dish.

"Brother Xiao, I salute you, I wish you a good start tomorrow and pass the re-election all the way." Han Liyan picked up her wine glass.

"And me, why don't you wish me?" Qinghua Daoist licked his face and leaned over, "It's really eccentric." ”

Brother Xiao smiled slightly, and the quarrel between the two added a lot of festive atmosphere.

"Qinghua, Brother Xiao wishes you success and dominance!" Xiao Yu craned his neck, "It's really good wine." ”

"Of course, this is what I stole from the Taoist temple, well, the good wine I took is much better than some people, I don't bring anything, I don't know how to cook, and I have to do it myself."

"Dao Ye? In the future, I can only call myself small in front of this eldest lady, you know? Han Liyan was going to pull the ears of the Qinghua Daoist again.

"What a shrew, do you think that Dao Ye will let you bully me if I have a leg injury, hum..."

The two of them got into a mess.

Daxing City on New Year's Day night is particularly beautiful. On this day, Daxing City temporarily canceled the curfew, the people can rarely have a few days of the year to be free to enter and exit the square at night, the whole city is naturally crowded with people, lively and extraordinary, Liren City and the metropolis are also almost open all night, the noise of the wine order, the shouts of children setting off firecrackers, the whole Daxing City fell into a laughter.

Suzaku Street is undoubtedly the most lively place, because every year the imperial court will set off fireworks on the street.

"Brother Xiao, hurry up, let's get started, let's hurry up and get a good position in front, don't worry about that Taoist priest with bad legs." Han Liyan shuttled back and forth in the crowd with a bag of food in her hand.

"It's on! Here we go! There was a commotion in the crowd.

"Oh, oh, here we go!" Han Liyan's eyes lit up excitedly, even a big family like Han Liyan can't see fireworks every day.

Xiao Yu has never seen fireworks, and his face is full of expectations.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Suzaku Street suddenly erupted with a loud bang from south to north, and the ground seemed to tremble slightly.

"Whoosh, pop" "Whoosh, pop" "Whoosh, pop"

I saw streamers roaring into the air, lighting up most of the night sky in an instant, and then rolling and exploding in mid-air.

One after another, fireworks burst into the air in mid-air. Green, red, yellow, and flowers warm the night sky throughout the cold winter, showing their beauty to the world, overlooking this powerful empire.

"Wow!"

"It's so beautiful!"

"Daddy, look, that image doesn't look like a colorful auspicious cloud!"

"Haha, silly boy, that's the colorful auspicious clouds of the gods."

The onlookers were immersed in this splendid and colorful beauty.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

"Look! Look! It's about to start again. The crowd boiled again.

Xiao Yu looked at the fireworks in the air and Han Liyan jumping around excitedly in front of him with satisfaction.

......

After the night vigil, Han Liyan couldn't hold it at first, and was sent home to rest by her subordinates, leaving Qinghua Daoist to stay in the inn to accompany her.

Xiao Yu stood by the window, looking at Daxing City, which had returned to silence, full of pride, "Xiancai, I'm here!" ”
