Chapter 10 Entering the house and causing a small night
Pass through the hall into the inner chamber (reach a higher level in one's studies or become more proficient in one's profess).
Xu Changqing was still a little apprehensive at the beginning.
Although I drank a little wine with Sun Laoqi from the old store of the Sun family in the past, I heard him talk about Xuanmen anecdotes, but after all, it was all hearsay.
"Gaozhou, Xu Changqing......" has a special person to sing the common name, the tone is unique, and the charm is full.
He listened first stunned, then happy. "It's all like this!"
was interrupted like this, and his mood relaxed.
The steps are calm and rhythmic.
When I entered the hall, I was even more relieved and disappointed when I saw everyone sitting or standing.
There can be more than 30 people in the hall, most of them are foils, assistants, apprentices or something, and there are 14 people here.
However, there was not a single master of refining and refining qi.
It may be out of place to use the standards of the distant ancestor Xu Yu to measure the Xuanmen of the current world. But it shouldn't be just three or two kittens.
In his mind, the retail investors of the old Xu family, who are in a single gang, can be passed down to this day, and the sect gang with the strength of the whole family can naturally do better.
Is Hu Nanguang's identity not enough, the price is not enough, please come to the true god?
Or maybe the finale of the show, the big horn is late, and the masters are still on the way?
Or is there another mystery in the hall, and there is a small hall for the initiators to rest and rest?
In the light of light, his mind was turning, and he felt that these three situations were the most likely.
At the same time, everyone in the hall was also looking at Xu Changqing.
There are those who look calmly and directly, those who look up and down, and those who drink tea and chat, and then scan with the corner of their eyes, and so on.
Most of the masters don't have any special expressions, this is the default, in the words of one of them:
is not famous, young, going to the meeting alone, facing the invisible coercion of a senior person, can be calm and calm without showing timidity, at least this qi cultivation kung fu is still good.
But in fact, Xu Changqing didn't feel any coercion at all.
These masters are not even 'scholars' in his heart. It is nothing more than a little means of health preservation, and the qi and blood are not lost with age. But in general, it still belongs to the level of a dark soul and a stream of energy, where can it constitute any coercion?
Look at the dress-up again.
Short gowns, tube pants, cloth shoes, trouser folds are not raw, cloth shoes are muddy and not stained, even the soles are clean and straightforward, the hair is carefully trimmed, and the small pendants, small ornaments, and gadgets in the hands are also carefully selected......
To be honest, this is really far from the image of a first-class industry insider in his mind.
The gang outside is not in tune, so they are cosplay, but the inside is also like this, this is the head of the execution of the karma, and they are like players who walk birds in cages and watch dramas and tea, is it appropriate?
"Huh? Wait a minute! There are special ...... too."
His steps have not stopped, and in disappointment, he should have given his hand and found a place to sit down, but he suddenly found a special existence.
A young woman. He didn't even notice its existence in the first place.
Since entering the Tao, all life has not been hidden within 30 meters, and this is the first case of this situation.
What does this mean?
He didn't think it was his own negligence, but thought that it was very likely that he had met a master.
"Obviously here, but people turn a blind eye, there is not even a cup of tea next to him, this is about a beginner, and the art industry is good......"
He had a judgment in his heart, thinking about how to talk and make friends, but he ended up provoking people.
I heard someone on the back of the oblique side: "In the name of medicinal herbs, what are these things?" Senior brother, do modern people still have this name? ”
Another voice said, "Do you understand the packaging?" It's all a complete set with the wear, which is called selling and shouting. ”
"But what is this nondescript thing wearing?"
"Personality, this is the same as a red vest, yellow pants, and a pair of green rubber shoes."
Xu Changqing stopped and turned around.
Outside, the forehead of the Hu Mansion steward, who was carefully watching the situation in the hall, began to sweat again. He thought with a little sadness and indignation in his heart: "It's going on again, is this the legendary mocking face?" ”
Of course, in fact, he knew in his heart that when this happened, he couldn't blame the pair of 'cross talk actors', and he couldn't blame Xu Changqing, but there were many rules.
The seating pattern in this hall is deliberately arranged in the form of a round table. I just don't want to make it clear, so that the saber rattling.
However, seniority is already a deep-rooted cultural tradition in the Celestial Empire, and even at the round table, you can sit down with a primary and secondary honor.
The one with his back to the door is the last seat, and if it is a feast, that position is the serving mouth. Facing the door is the main seat, which is divided into the guest of honor, the second guest and so on.
In this hall, the seats are divided into two circles, inside and outside, and there is much more than one entrance. In this way, there is more to say.
For example, the seats near the exit leading to the inner house are usually reserved for people who are close to the main family. The seats on the side corridor to the restroom are next to the next level than the seats on the side of the main entrance.
Because the people sitting here at the main entrance have the convenience of being the first to be familiar with each other, ordinary people can't take their turns.
Going deeper, don't look at the seats here are still a lot empty, but in fact, the seats are empty and the name is not empty, which position is probably who, the people in the circle are all clear, this is part of the agreed etiquette.
If you don't understand this set of rules, you will be regarded as vulgar and crazy, and you will lose face to yourself and your teacher, and if you are serious, you will suffer disasters. Like now.
Xu Changqing patronized and was wary of the initiator, and he didn't stop under his feet, and the result was that he crossed the line.
Yue is just the seat that is familiar with the face, this son is sitting on the Xuanmen figure, called Ma Lichuan, a native of Gansu, nicknamed Liema, is in his fifties, still relatively active, especially in the northwest, very famous.
Ma Lichuan can sit in a familiar seat, which is also to undertake the work, this job can be simply called: door god!
The door god card is a little ghost, and if the qualifications are not enough, it is a little ghost.
The current Xu Changqing is a little ghost in the eyes of people.
Subtext: We have all worked hard for many years to win this time, how old are you?
The nationality is unknown, and he was arranged by the main family to enter the house, and he also reported his name.
Well, to the hosts, everyone gives you this chance to show your face.
But correspondingly, you also have to be knowledgeable and interesting, after coming in, and the air group to make a circle for everyone, and then walk the outer circle, find a seat, no one said anything.
But how do you do it? Kick your nose and face and play arrogance.
Several famous people had their faces pulled, and the assistants and apprentices who were waiting around them followed closely and sat down, and the atmosphere in the hall immediately became solemn.
It was in such an atmosphere that Ma Lichuan's two apprentices improvised a 'cross talk' to explore the bottom of the sea.
There is also a famous hall for this flower work, which is called the master has something to do, and the disciple does it for him. If you win, you have a face, and if you lose, you can set up your own steps.
The atmosphere in the hall changed, Xu Changqing noticed it, and was slightly stunned, and then figured out the twists and turns here.
As early as when he was young, his grandfather Xu Fengshan told him: ordinary people compete for interests, Xuanmen fights for opportunities, interests are good, and opportunities are hard to find.
In addition, the people in the Xuanmen who violate the ban with martial arts and use the means of the Xuanmen are naturally more and more feared by ordinary people.
Therefore, practitioners should always reflect on themselves, and the rules of the practice should be more important, and they should also understand.
Sun Laoqi, on the other hand, told him about the current situation in the industry.
It is said that the hearts of the people in today's era are not ancient, and every time there is a grand event in the Xuanmen, there are always people who are counting on the famous people as stepping stones to soar into the sky.
Most of them are wild and stunned, and the shots are not serious. Fight for the future of other people's lives, and even your own lives.
And today, he seems to have played such a stunned young man who is anxious to step on people and fight for his life.
How does it feel from his current perspective?
In a word: the industry is deformed, and a group of people rely on playing with rules to enjoy resources and markets.
If you do this, you can't just complain about the endless flow of stunned people.
He ignored the two temporary cross talk actors and looked directly at Ma Lichuan.
The meaning is very clear: you have to give me an explanation.
"Hey, this is out of proportion!" The celebrities here are getting more and more angry. Stepping over the parties and calling directly to the backstage, this is further challenging the rules in the circle!
Annoying!
Several celebrities are already sinking like water, and some of them are in a hurry, and they are even ready to go beyond their bounds to teach this junior how to behave for Ma Lichuan.
But Ma Lichuan himself has not had a clear attitude for a long time.
People can't figure it out: the old horse is notoriously short-tempered, and the fierce horse does not bark in vain. Why is it that he is still being frightened by an unknown person?
Ma Lichuan's two apprentices were also puzzled, and said in their hearts: "The look was good just now, is it us, or do you personally reach out, but you will give another signal?" ”
Ma Lichuan is suffering words.
After Xu Changqing's magic robe was woven into the auspicious thing of Shensu, the time for raising the weapon was still a little shorter, and it was not yet possible to achieve perfect Taoguang cultivation.
Ma Lichuan is a connoisseur of strange things, well-known inside and outside the circle, and he himself is proud.
As a result, Xu Changqing turned around just now, and Shensu's purple brilliance was captured by Ma Lichuan.
Ma Lichuan, who knew the goods, immediately realized that Xu Changqing's ordinary coat was actually a heavy treasure.
After all, without the cooperation of treasures and wonderful methods, it is absolutely difficult to restrain the Ruixiang light of Shensu.
And how can such a treasured character be ordinary?
What's even more depressing is that his two apprentices are still talking about Xu Changqing's clothes, this is the apprentice of a connoisseur of strange things? It's so ironic!
Ma Lichuan didn't want to become a laughing stock, but there was no good solution, so he was stuck, very embarrassed, and in less than two breaths, he saw sweat on his forehead and sideburns.
At this moment, a female voice sounded in the corner: "Little brother, you see what other uncles are embarrassed about, don't hold on, how about I come and talk to you a few times?" ”
"Good guy!" Ma Lichuan howled in his heart.
The first few famous characters who sank like water in front of them were very dissatisfied, and one of them snorted coldly: "Where is this girl, what about the elders in the family?" ”
The one she called a girl looked like she was in her early twenties, tall and tall, with two long legs, which looked very eye-catching against the backdrop of tight jeans.
The appearance is ordinary, a melon seed face but the facial features are not delicate enough, the forehead is wide, the hairline is high, and a single ponytail is combed.
Just this look, it is estimated that not many people suspect that she is a student girl.
Of course, Xu Changqing doesn't see it that way, because this girl is exactly the person who makes him pay special attention.
In the face of his invitation, he said loudly: "I don't dare to ask for it." ”
