Chapter 53: Exquisite Cocktail Party
Sun Yi pointed to the round platform on the water and said: "The competition is on the round platform, because there are only eight, so two more platforms will be erected in front of the two pavilions in the south." "Sun Yi took all the disciples who participated in the Nanyue Peak, one is familiar with the venue, many disciples have never been here at all, only the door master level VIPs come to visit and it is open, this time I also invited the deacon who manages Nanyue Peak to explain the scenery of each floor to everyone, because Ziyang Gate is the master, if the disciples entertain friends from other doors, they have to explain to others.
Chen Tang was also amazed after walking around, Ziyangmen was very good at enjoying it.
The next morning, Xiaoshan Gate and Gulin Gate arrived, and the forty disciples of Ziyang Gate who participated in the competition received the disciples of the two gates together in the guest hall of the Nanyue Summit, and the disciples of the two gates were led by two elders and one inner gate master, and Ziyang Gate was received by the second elder, the third elder and Yin Chinese, the head of the inner gate. After several elders greeted each other, they took the elders and the two disciples to Nanyue Peak's residence to rest first, and the luncheon was held in the Cuifeng Hall of the second order of Nanyue Peak, with Ziyang Sect Lord Yun Ziyan and all the elders in attendance. Chen Tang and the others went to Cuifeng Hall to wait first.
Chen Tang saw Zhou Ling'er and Zhang Yi, the core disciples of Gulinmen and Xiaoshanmen, the former was a beautiful girl, but her demeanor was cold, she was a cold beauty, Zhang Yi had deep eyes and thick eyebrows, her face was like a knife, she was a handsome guy, but she was also not smiling. Two ice lumps again, Chen Tang smacked his lips.
The Linglong Cocktail Party is held every two years, hosted by the six gates in turn, the last time was hosted by Xiaoyaomen, and the battle rankings are Liuyan Gate, Xiaoyao Gate, Gulin Gate, Ziyang Gate, Xiaoshan Gate, and Xinghuo Gate. Therefore, at this drinking party, the disciples of Xiaoshan Sect all had unkind faces, and they were eager to surpass Ziyang Gate. Ziyang Gate was also eager to try to surpass Gulin Gate, but the three parties were cold to each other, and while waiting in Cuifeng Hall, Yin Chinese also warned a few words, how could the host be cold to the guests.
After a while, the luncheon began, and the disciples of Xiaoshan Gate and Gulin Sect were seated, and Ziyang Gate was also seated. The luncheon is a separate meal system, the left hand of the hall is the disciples of Xiaoshan Gate, one table for one person, the right hand is the disciples of Gulin Gate, the position of entering the door is Ziyang Gate, and in front of it is a round table, which is the seat of the elders. There is a large empty space in the middle, which should be prepared for dancing, playing music, or standing there to speak.
The elders and deacons also took their seats, and the luncheon began, the second elder of Ziyangmen stood up and said a few words of welcome, and began to serve food and wine, and the wine and food were all served, the master of Ziyangmen and other elders arrived, and all the disciples also stood up, Yun Ziyan stood in the middle and said a few words, and then toasted the guests at the main table with a few glasses of wine and left.
At this time, the disciples became lively, toasting each other and introducing each other.
Zhang Yi, the eldest disciple of Xiaoshan Sect, turned to Ziyang Sect and said, "Why didn't Meng Liangkun come?"
Sun Yi said: "Senior Brother Meng may be about to build a foundation, so I can't participate in this drinking party competition." ”
Zhou Ling'er was surprised, "Then you have one less core disciple in Ziyang Sect, how can you compete?"
Sun Yi pointed to Chen Tang's position, "I am a new core disciple of Ziyang Sect, and he participates in the competition. ”
Chen Tang stood up and arched his hand, "My name is Chen Tang, everyone is laughing." ”
Zhou Ling'er and Zhang Yi looked at Chen Tang, and they both floated with one word, but it's a pity. Such a handsome disciple had red spots on his face.
Zhou Ling'er asked, "In that competition, it was Senior Brother Sun who fought against us, right?"
Sun Yi shook his head, "No, it was the junior brother just now who insisted on fighting against a few people, and it was also experience. ”
Zhang Yi said angrily: "Ziyangmen, is this looking down on us?" Zhou Ling'er also looked at us.
Sun Yi smiled: "How dare you, my Ziyang Sect is also within the rules, and the core disciples can be changed at will." Besides, Senior Brother Chen is the personal disciple of the Supreme Elder of our sect, how can he look down on you. ”
Zhang Yi was speechless, in order to try his best to strive for a good ranking, Ziyangmen also showed his old face, but this is a rule, and it is completely okay.
Chen Tang saw that the faces of all the senior brothers of Ziyangmen were a little ashamed, so he said: "My senior brother of Ziyangmen can't participate in the competition, and my junior brother won't just fight against all the senior brothers, and give you a winner's place, why look down on it? ”
Zhou Ling'er and Zhang Yi looked a little better after listening to this, what this half-yin and half-yang kid said made a little sense, the senior brother of the family suddenly couldn't participate, and he was still the senior brother if he didn't build a foundation, so did he have to let the second senior brother fight against the senior brother, and the third senior brother against the second senior brother? As for this kid saying that victory or defeat is still early, it's a bit funny, the seventh order of the pneumatic realm is fighting against the peak, and he still dares to talk about victory or defeat?
The disciples of Ziyang Sect felt better after hearing this, and everyone originally had no feelings for Chen Tang, but now they all had some good feelings.
Several elders at the main table looked at the disciples bickering, and they also laughed, the fourth elder of the Gulin Sect was a beautiful woman, watching Chen Tang speak, and said with a smile: "Second Elder, your Ziyang Sect disciple is interesting, this child is very young, but he is a seventh-order cultivator, if there is no red spot, he must be both talented and beautiful." The beautiful woman can roughly see Chen Tang's age.
The second elder also smiled: "There are red spots, and Chen Tang is also talented and beautiful. When the beautiful woman thought about it, Chen Tang was tall, his eyes were deep, and the red spots on his face were even more bewitching.
The luncheon lasted for an hour and a half, and after the end, the disciples of the three sects played Nanyue Peak together, naturally forming a group according to the ranking, which was also an opportunity to get to know the opponent. Chen Tang naturally accompanied Zhang Yi and Zhou Ling'er, although the two were dissatisfied, they couldn't help it, and they also needed to understand each other. It wasn't until the evening that the disciples of the two sects went back to rest one after another, and the disciples of the Ziyang Sect did not return to their residences in the door, and Nanyuefeng had a lot of rooms, and they also stayed here to rest.
On the second day, the other three gates arrived one after another, and the last one to arrive was Xiaoyao Gate, which bordered Ziyang Gate, so there was no need to worry about the long distance and delay.
The Liuyanmen is a dark brown monk's robe, Sima Yan is a tall and mighty young man, the Xinghuomen is a gray robe, Zhao Yunfei is a scholar-like little white face, the Xiaoyaomen is a white robe, which looks very chic, and Liu Chaifeng is also a young man with a folding fan in his hand. The Gulin Gate is a cyan robe, and the Xiaoshan Gate is a black robe.
The six gates gathered, and the Ziyang Gate was a grand banquet, and the Cloud Gate Lord also led the elders to participate in the banquet, which was very lively.
On the third day, the day when the Linglong Cocktail Party officially began, the disciples of the six sects walked to the top of the mountain at the same time in the early morning, and the robes of various colors covered the stairs, which was very lively.
A bag of cigarettes, all the disciples have already sat down on the top of the mountain, each sect has a pavilion, and the remaining two are the pavilions of the elders, and the other is the pavilion of the presiding officer.
Xiaoyao Gate and Ziyang Gate are good, sitting in the second pavilion in the west, Liuyan Gate is good with Gulin Gate, sitting in the north two pavilions, Xiaoshan Gate is good with Xinghuo Gate, sitting in the east two pavilions, the servants send fruits, wine, and everyone drinks and chats.
