Chapter 107: A Strange Venue
And in my ears, the footsteps of the Tong Emperor sounded.
I lowered my head, and a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of my mouth, in fact, I was not sure what Emperor Tong would decide, after all, judging from his appearance, he had always wanted to suppress me.
If he guesses what I'm thinking, I'm afraid he'll think of me or him first.
Then they disagreed, and they broke up.
But it turned out that my crazy decision made him even more interested than this, and this crucial first step was solved in this situation silently.
The design of this hall is quite unique.
Behind the door, there was a small foyer, through which I could officially enter the hall, and when I stepped into the foyer, the Tong Emperor was already walking side by side with me.
But the first thing I saw was Lan Xuan's slightly worried face.
She stood at the entrance of this foyer and waited for me, and when she had finished her work, her worries finally exploded.
I calmly met Lan Xuan's worried gaze, perhaps it was this gesture that made Lan Xuan breathe a sigh of relief, she had never been a verbose woman, she just said to me: "Ye Shao, before you step through this hall, there is still a chance to regret it." I can't guess what you're going to do for the time being, but in response to this situation, in the past ten hours, I have also come up with an emergency plan to deal with these gathered people. ”
Only then did I notice that Lan Xuan's always tired eyes had become obviously bloodshot.
I put my hand on Lan Xuan's shoulder and whispered, "You have worked hard, but I have no intention of turning back." But I'm definitely not impulsive, all you have to do is trust me. ”
"The fate of my birth has been predestined, I can only trust you." Lan Xuan looked at me and said seriously, but a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, a smile of encouragement.
This is Lan Xuan, smart, capable, but also has the courage to live and die without regrets.
I was moved in my heart, bowed my head and stepped across the hall, and the voice of Emperor Tong sounded in my ears: "I said Lan Xuan, Ye Zhengling of your Huo Nie family is a real madman, why don't you follow me." ”
"Mr. Tong, you're kidding again." Lan Xuan chuckled.
At the same time, Emperor Tong and I had already crossed the foyer and officially appeared in the hall, with Lan Xuan just one step behind us.
Therefore, in the eyes of all people, I and Emperor Tong came together, and their eyes fell on me and Emperor Tong at the same time, and the entire hall originally had some slight conversations, but at this time, it was silent, like a needle falling on the ground, and it could be heard.
I only felt the intertwined aura of all the demon hunters, like the pressure of a mountain, this silent gaze, and even more like a mountain thrown into the air, pressing heavily towards me.
I didn't even have time to look up at the people in the hall before I felt a sense of solemnity that I couldn't breathe, and my whole body was slightly hot, and I felt a little dampness, a kind of hot sweat under tension.
This kind of aura, if it were an ordinary person coming in, I'm afraid they wouldn't have the courage to move forward, right?
I think I'm also ordinary, but the firm decision in my heart made me raise my head suddenly, my steps are very steady, my expression is very calm, but my palms are full of sweat, compared to me, Emperor Tong seems to be much more relaxed and indifferent, the bamboo flute in his hand turns, as if he is just strolling in the courtyard.
"The head of the water boy family is really a good talent."
"Extraordinary."
"I heard that the head of the Tong family is very likely to reproduce the demeanor of the first generation of the head of the water boy family that day."
I don't know which woman started to praise Emperor Tong, from the short steps we walked from the foyer to the front of the chair, everyone in the hall began to praise Emperor Tong warmly, and I was naturally the 'waste' who was ignored.
I actually expected this situation in my heart, and I didn't care too much about it.
Anywhere in the world, there are their own rules, which divide the so-called high and low of the crowd, even this group of demon hunters who inherit the circle of self-cultivators is no exception, but the rules are different, and they will still have strength in this circle.
"Heavy form (valuing the form of magic, cultivation, etc.) and light heart (valuing the cultivation of the mind) is the most common mistake made by Taoists, and the rest of the cultivators, including Buddhist cultivators, are all the same. But I don't know that since ancient times, it is important to temper a heart. If the mind is clear, then everything is the same. ”
This was what Master said to me many years ago, and it is only now that I have deeply realized that it is not easy.
Not to mention everything, even today, didn't Emperor Tong and I draw a high and low in the eyes of everyone? Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Lan Xuan's expression, which was a kind of depressed discomfort and injustice, after all, my face is the face of the Huo Nie family.
I deliberately slowed down, gently shook Lan Xuan's hand, and then glanced at her vaguely, Lan Xuan squeezed out a reluctant smile at me, thinking that it meant to reassure me.
The attitude of everyone did not sting me, but Lan Xuan's expression stung me.
It turns out that people can't help but be pulled into all kinds of funny rules, and they take care of themselves and draw their own highs and lows, all because of such constraints? No wonder Buddhism says that it wants the six roots to be pure, not to jump out of the red dust, how can you use the most transparent heart to explore the world?
The greatest mercy is fairness, as the saint might as well say.
But how hard is fairness? And is it so easy to jump out of the red dust? If there is no emotional disturbance, where does the power of the mind come from?
At such a time, I turned my head when I thought of such a profound Dao Heart Enlightenment, but I saw Emperor Tong's still arrogant and disdainful face, sneered lightly, and said, "If you flatter me, I won't look down on you because of this." What I want is that Ye Zhengling admits that I, Emperor Tong, are the destined person. After all, Huo Nie and Shui Tong back then were indelible brilliance, but Ye Zhengling, do you admit it? ”
As he spoke, Emperor Tong raised his eyebrows slightly, seemed to smile lightly, turned the bamboo flute in his hand, flicked the long sleeves of Hanfu, and sat down a little lower in the main seat in the hall, with a lazy posture and slightly closed eyes, like a sword in its sheath, completely ignoring the embarrassing silence of everyone at this time.
Before, that position was originally sat by Liu Yinfeng's arrogant old man, but as soon as Emperor Tong came, he chose his position, and he couldn't hold his face.
I saw that his big hand holding the 'Iron Egg' was bruised, but in the end he gave up his seat before Emperor Tong sat down, hugged his fist at Emperor Tong, and then walked to the other main seat and sat down slightly lower, in a certain way, it can be regarded as an equal position with Emperor Tong.
It is estimated that this made him feel a little better, but in a second, that arrogant expression appeared on his face again, and the appearance of no one in his eyes seemed to be happy again.
Such a person is really arrogant to the point of 'cuteness', which is really hard to hate, and even some sympathy, in this era, if he doesn't make the right choice, I'm afraid he will be the first and most innocent kind of person to die, right?
But I didn't have the heart to think about it, but took a step forward, and finally sat down on my own throne.
The position of the Tong Emperor is close to me, when I walked to the main seat and sat down, I inevitably passed by the Tong Emperor, I glanced at him, and my heart was inevitably a little hot, that was moved by the seemingly casual Tong Emperor just now, and the arrogant words that have always been in line with his character, in fact, it inadvertently highlighted my status, relieved me of this embarrassment, and also made those who were full of praise shut up.
After all, how can I not care, am I the master here? If it is ignored by everyone, how will this biggest gathering of demon hunters in hundreds of years continue?
Even if I continued, I would have to become a venue provider, and I would no longer be able to dominate the conference.
Emperor Tong must have seen my grateful gaze, but he pretended not to see the general half-leaning on the comfortable seat, for this meeting, Lan Xuan also took a lot of effort, from the arrangement of the venue, the layout, and the ranking are carefully exquisite, and the only thing that cannot be changed is the back of this hall.
It's obviously a very elegant Tang and Song Dynasty ancient style, but it has a weird and complicated pattern, it seems to be a hundred beasts, but it doesn't seem like I have a weird feeling in my heart, but I can't study these at this time, under strong pressure, I sat on the main guard and looked up, and the sweat in my palms didn't dry.
But I still glanced at the entire venue with a calm face, and finally saw clearly that almost all the modern demon hunters sitting under the main seat were also clear.
Except for the Tong Emperor who was wearing Hanfu, because of the reason he was wearing, he looked different, and the rest of the demon hunters were very ordinary, at least there was no shocking difference in dress.
Just like that, walking in the crowd, no one would guess that their identity was actually a demon hunter.
Only here can they completely release their different aura, and in the world of ordinary people, if they converge this aura, they will completely disappear from everyone, right? In particular, the 'Lone Wanderer', that is, the Demon Hunter who has not joined any family, is even more low-key and reserved.
When I looked at everyone like this, no one responded to any respectful glances at me.
In the area of the family members, some family members would look at me curiously with different eyes, but in the area of the lone wanderer, many people did not even raise their eyelids.
I didn't speak, Lan Xuan stood behind me and subconsciously approached me gently.
