Chapter 45 Greeting the Guests
The cold and cold Meishan seems to be soaked in some kind of Spring Festival-like atmosphere, and the forests all over the mountains are full of joyful scenes, and the bursts of red light that were initially lit up in the mountains and fields are indeed issued by countless red lanterns hanging on the canopy, and the sound of gongs and drums is indescribably festive, as if thousands of people are walking down the mountain road with torchesβ
Everyone at the foot of the mountain looked at this scene in amazement, except for Wang Sanjiang, the rest of them were a little confused.
"Are you going to celebrate the holidays?" Chen Xian looked at Wang Sanjiang in confusion and asked in a low voice, "This is your local custom festival, right?" β
"It's not." Wang Sanjiang shook his head.
"It's so lively!" Lu Yisheng looked at the mountain with wide eyes, his face full of curiosity.
"It's not a festival and it's so lively...... Are you misremembering......" Chen Xian took his mobile phone and looked at the calendar, and said suspiciously.
Mu He dragged the corner of Xu Yanan's clothes with one hand, and tightly dragged Chen Xian's arm with the other hand, bouncing like a child watching the excitement, perhaps affected by the red and festive firelight in the mountains and forests, her little face looked particularly pleasing to look red and fluttering.
Xu Yanan and Mu He's reactions were not much different, she was also stunned by this sudden appearance at the moment, the red lanterns all over the mountains appeared without warning, although the red glow they lit up was a little weird, but it brought people more of an intuitive sense of joy, as if they could feel their heartfelt joy at a glance, and even be infected by their emotions......
The people of the Li family, who were still annoyed by the defeat at the hands of Chen Xian, couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the red lanterns all over the mountain, and then Li Daosheng and Li Zonglan's faces changed, and a look of extreme vigilance suddenly appeared on their faces.
"Where did these lanterns come from?" Li Songran's strength is low, and he doesn't seem to see anything wrong in this mountain, but it is very similar to Lu Yisheng's reaction, and he is full of interest when he sees everything, "What about their festivals?" β
"Have a fart festival." Li Daosheng said in a low voice, his tone was a little heavy, "This is the domain!" It's the domain of that old toad! β
It is common knowledge that some anomalous beings can use "domains" and create "domains", but Li Songran can't imagine that the "domains" created by the old toad are explained...... It can cover a mountain!
This point is not only difficult for Li Songran and Li Daolan to accept, but also for Li Zonglan, a stranger of the older generation of the Li family, although before coming to Meishan in Yunnan Province, their Li family had made a general estimate of the strength of Shenyi, but as far as the current situation is concerned, Shenyi's strength has exceeded their imagination.
"I thought it was about the same as me no matter how powerful it was...... It seems that our Li family underestimated this toad......" Li Zonglan said quietly, with a surprise in his eyes that had not yet dissipated, and his voice couldn't help but become a little lower, "If you want to get rid of it and take Meishan, it is impossible for us to do it at all!" β
As soon as the words fell, Li Zonglan saw that Li Daosheng did not speak, but seemed to be thinking about something with a puzzled expression.
"What's wrong?" Li Zonglan asked.
"I'm wondering why Chen Xian and why they're here." Li Daosheng's eyes were full of solemnity, after the previous fight, he had a deep understanding of Chen Xian's strength, so in his heart, Chen Xian was an object that needed more vigilance than the old toad, "Our Li family's festival with Meishan should not have reached the ears of the secret bureau, right?" β
"Guarding the Secret Bureau......" Li Zonglan frowned, his expression was a little ugly, "There is nothing in the country that they don't know, it's just a matter of whether they want to care about it or not, according to the past situation, like the conflict between Meishan and our Li family, as long as no one takes the initiative to report it to the Secret Bureau, they will not take action." β
"Our people will definitely not take the initiative to report the case to the Secret Bureau, so only Meishan ...... That shouldn't be. Li Daosheng frowned, and said incomprehensibly, "You have also seen the information of the old toad, the third grandfather, don't look at it, it usually has a lukewarm temperament, it seems that it can't afford to lose its temper with anyone, but this time it is obviously anxious...... Even if it goes to the Yin City for help, it can't go to the Secret Bureau. β
"Brother, could it be that the people who guard the secret bureau also want to find that baby?" Li Daolan suddenly asked, her eyes full of suspicion, "Since they know the vision of Meishan Tianxian, then ......."
"If the Bureau of Secrets wanted that treasure, they wouldn't be the only ones coming." Li Daosheng sighed and said helplessly, "The last time the Secret Bureau came forward, the people who were sent to the scene were all elite cadres from the headquarters, and there were no less than fifty people from the Armed Forces Department. β
"So they're not here for the baby?" Li Songran was also confused.
"Not necessarily." Li Daosheng muttered, his face full of suspicion, "Maybe they know that Meishan has a treasure, but they are actually here behind the secret guard...... It's not like this kind of thing hasn't happened, just look at who is in their team, Chen Xian and the one surnamed Lu, only they are the people who guard the secret bureau, and everyone else is not in the secret bureau, especially Xu Yanan's woman! β
When the two sides met for the first time, everyone in the Li family noticed Xu Yanan in Chen Xian's team, although they were also very curious about how Xu Yanan could get involved with Chen Xian, but because there were more outsiders present, and their Li family and the southeast Xu family were not very well dealt with, and there were even many conflicts in private, so even if both sides knew each other, they didn't greet Xu Yanan.
"I suspect that the Xu family received the news, so I found Chen Xian in private, you haven't watched the live broadcast last time, Xu Yanan seems to be quite familiar with Chen Xian." Li Daosheng analyzed in a soft voice.
"If that's the case, then it's fine." Li Zonglan smiled slightly, with a scheming face, "The old toad must be coming down the mountain with such a momentum, and it is estimated that he was annoyed by the people of our Li family, since Chen Xian and they also want to find that baby, maybe...... They're going to go up against the toad. β
Hearing this, Li Daosheng couldn't help but smile, his eyes were full of happiness.
"It's good for them to be on top, and we'll sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight when the time comes!"
At the same time, the procession of people walking in the mountains and forests is approaching the foot of the mountain, and the sound of gongs and drums is becoming more and more festive.
Under the curious eyes of everyone, many colorful paper figures slowly walked out of the forest, among which some people beat gongs, some drums, some played suona, and there were dozens of tall and mighty paper figures carrying three sedan chairs.
These paper figures seemed to know Chen Xian, and they turned around as soon as they walked out of the forest, and went straight to Chen Xian step by step......
"It's time to do it!" Li Daosheng was so excited that he was about to scream, and he couldn't help but imagine the picture of the old toad controlling these weird paper figures to beat Chen Xian, his pale face also became rosy due to excitement, and he kept muttering softly in his mouth as if he was casting some kind of curse.
"Right...... Closer...... There are so many of you who will definitely not be able to do it together...... But why didn't you see that old toad......"
In the expectant and excited eyes of everyone in the Li family, the tall paper figure walking at the front of the team had slowly come to Chen Xian, and then with a weird smile on his face, he raised his hand to Chen Xian-
"That's right! Beat! Hit hard! Li Daosheng continued to curse Chen Xian silently, the expression on his face became more and more excited, and his bright eyes seemed to have seen the cruel reality that Chen Xian would experience next.
Facts have proved that Li Daosheng's prediction was not wrong, and the reality is indeed so cruel that it makes people desperate.
Under the watchful eye of everyone in the Li family with great anticipation and malicious intent...... The paper man raised his hand and shook hands with Chen Xian, and then the two sides nodded and greeted each other amicably, and had an extremely cordial and friendly exchange without speaking at all.
"What the ......"
Li Daosheng's dirty words were about to blurt out, but because of his elegant and elegant image, he swallowed it back, and the two round eyes flew out of his sockets, and there was only shock on his face except shock.
What the is going on?!
I'm dreaming?!!
"Little Brother Chen, we are the ...... sent by Master Shen to pick you up."
The tall paper man's voice was very clear, and it seemed that the soul of a middle-aged man was stored in this paper body, and the words were very polite and polite, and the kind tone made Chen Xian a little embarrassed.
"Old Sun, this battle was also arranged by Master?" Wang Sanjiang suddenly asked, pointing to the red lanterns all over the mountains with a curious expression.
The paper man nodded, and the enthusiastic smile looked a little strange on the paper face.
"Master Shi said, Brother Chen is our honored guest in Meishan."
