Chapter 029: A Tense Banquet
Meiyang Town is the base camp of the Gu family. Due to the protection of the monks of the Gu family and the law enforcement, the law and order here are quite good. Therefore, it is still brightly lit at night and full of tourists.
The carriage in which Qianxin and the others were riding, with the flow of people and vehicles into Meiyang Town, was not at all inconspicuous.
When I arrived in front of the Gu family's mansion, I found that someone was at the door to greet me.
It wasn't until the carriage stopped that Qianxin knew that it was to the Gu family.
The towering building like the city gate tower in front of me is actually the gate of the Gu family.
And the palace group on the mountain behind the door that shines in the night sky is actually the Gu family manor.
"A cultivation family is still like this, I don't know what kind of style the Spirit Sword Sect is!"
He looked up and couldn't help but be in a trance.
Gu Mei was just a little girl who had not entered the family tree, and the Gu family did not send anyone to greet her. Only Zhao Chanlin and others stood at the door and waited.
"Gong ......" Zhao Chanlin watched Qianxin get out of the car, and the "son" shouted halfway, only to find that he was his "cousin" on the surface. She can't call Childe anymore, and she doesn't know Qianxin's name, she doesn't know how to shout it.
After Qianxin got out of the car, Gu Mei and Gu Ping immediately began to greet him: "Qianxin, please come with me!"
The two dragged Qianxin one left and one right, refusing to give in to each other. Chishin began to hurt again.
Seeing Zhao Chanlin, Qianxin was like a savior, and hurriedly ran over: "Cousin, Qianxin is back!"
It looks like a long-lost reunion.
Gu Mei heard Qianxin shouting Zhao Chanlin's cousin, and gritted her teeth with hatred beside her: "Hmph! It's really a fake Brother Qianxin! This bastard used his sword soul to eat Brother Qianxin, and he came to lie to me! I must kill him to avenge Brother Qianxin!"
Qianxin suddenly felt a chill hit him: "Who is so hostile to me?"
Turning his head to look, there were only Gu Mei and Lou Yayi.
"Could it be Lou Yayi?"
Qianxin didn't expect that Gu Mei was ready to kill him, and shook his head inexplicably.
And Zhao Chanlin finally knew Qianxin's name, smiled and called him aside: "I have already said the matter of asking for employment." The Gu family originally wanted you to attend the dinner with me tonight, but I didn't expect your trip to be delayed so much. Now that the dinner is over, it's still time for the wine party. ”
Zhao Chanlin said it so easily, and it was obvious that she was making quite smooth progress in fighting for the Gu family to recognize her inheritance of the estate.
Now that the matter of hiring Gu Mei has been implemented, a stone has landed in a thousand confidences.
Although he is scared to eat, this cutscene is going to go anyway. In his heart, he also wanted to see what kind of virtue the upper echelons of the Gu family were.
So he nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the banquet!"
Seeing Qianxin agree, Zhao Chanlin glanced at Gu Mei curiously, and stared at her for more than a minute before removing her eyes.
"Although he is still very young, he is indeed a beautiful embryo. She secretly approved, but thought proudly: "It's just a little girl, I don't know anything, how can I attract men?"
After reading Gu Mei, Zhao Chanlin's eyes swept Lou Yayi beside her fiercely: Cheap woman, now you finally fell into my hands!
Lou Yayi didn't know that the old ghost was dead, and she still had the intention of saying goodbye to Zhao Chanlin.
In the past, the contact with the Gu family was done through her. Now there is a banquet, and Zhao Chanlin didn't tell her first, which made her very annoyed.
Lou Yayi walked up to Zhao Chanlin arrogantly and stared at her aggressively: "Where is the banquet held? Take me quickly!"
Zhao Chanlin glanced at her and said disdainfully, "You don't have to go." ”
"You!" Lou Yayi's heart was full of flavors. When did Zhao Chanlin, the illegitimate daughter, come out to meet the guests on behalf of the Yuzhai host? Do you really want to marry the Gu family man and go crazy?
She looked sideways and said coldly: "Zhao Chanlin, don't play ghost in front of me! You are not qualified to participate in such a banquet in place of the Yuzhai master! An illegitimate daughter of unknown origin, you are too embarrassed to come out and show your eyes? Also, your inexplicable cousin is not qualified to participate in the banquet!"
Zhao Chanlin chuckled: "Lou Yayi, haven't you just slept with Zou Chen a few times, and you really think you are a big man?" Are Qianxin and I qualified to go to the banquet, and soon the Yuzhai Lord will tell you." I'll let you see him!"
At the end of speaking, her eyes became very cold, and killing intent bloomed.
When Qianxin found out about the fight between these two women, she got involved in it again, and her eyes hurt incomparably!
Could it be that I am really stinking and beautiful and have been struck by thunder? How can I be implicated by women wherever I go? I have been shot while standing next to me, and I have been wronged so much! Lou Yayi, this woman is also too fickle. Last night, he begged to roll the sheets with me, but today he actually fought with Zhao Chanlin and swept me away. A hundred days for a husband and wife, even if it is only a stab, it is still a day. Why don't you save me some face?
Seeing that Zhao Chanlin and Lou Yayi were about to evolve from a verbal battle to a martial arts fight, Qianxin hurriedly pulled Zhao Chanlin: "Cousin, shouldn't we go?"
Zhao Chanlin showed a triumphant smile and raised her chin at Lou Yayi ostentatiously.
Seeing that Gu Mei was still standing with Lou Yayi, Zhao Chanlin was ready to completely isolate Lou Yayi, and pulled Gu Mei affectionately and said, "Mei'er, you haven't had dinner yet, have you? Go to the courtyard where I live first, where my sister will help you cook." ”
The tone and voice are so affectionate that they make people's teeth sore. And when she spoke, she smiled at Qianxin as if she was invited.
"I ...... Okay!" Gu Mei originally wanted to go back to see her mother. But the thought of running out and being caught back may be a bit of a hassle. If you go back rashly, you will have to affect your mother. Since this woman is the cousin of "Fake Qianxin", it is not so unfortunate for her to be involved. Thinking that there was still dinner to eat, she happily followed the two subordinates brought by Zhao Chanlin.
In such an instant, Lou Yayi became a lonely person with no one to care about. She was so angry that her face turned pale: "Zhao Chanlin, you wait for me! Hmph, do you think that if you hide from me, I won't be able to find a place for the banquet?"
After venting, Lou Yayi jumped directly into the passenger carriage in the Gu family's manor, and said to the coachman angrily: "Go to Zou Chen's mansion!"
Zou Chen is the younger brother of the Gu family's mother, the brother-in-law of the head of the family, and also Lou Yayi's concubine and eyeliner. Lou Yayi was isolated by Zhao Chanlin, and immediately thought of using Zou Chen to pull back a game.
Qianxin and Gu Mei followed Zhao Chanlin to the sword hall where the Gu family held a banquet.
The so-called wine banquet is actually a ritual for the upper-class monks of the Gu family to teach the children of the family by word and deed. The young children demonstrated their swordsmanship and cultivation on the martial arts stage, and the elders of the clan gave on-site guidance.
As a cultivator family that has stood for hundreds of years, the Gu family has countless children in the clan. If young people want to stand out from their peers, they have to fight desperately for opportunities to perform.
Therefore, the family banquet also belongs to the place where the elite children of the Gu family show their faces to earn performance. Being allowed to participate in the banquet is a sign of the family's attention.
If you can surprise the four in the family banquet, you will have a good chance to win the opportunity to become the first sword boy and get the family's key training.
If you become the first sword boy, you will be recommended to enter the Spirit Sword Gate, and you will get a second-level sword soul before the age of 20.
Although there is only one place for the first sword boy every year, its rewards are still coveted.
And today's family banquet has some special meanings.
Zhao Chanlin, who inherited Lao Hanzhai Manor and led more than 100 wrestlers and martial arts refiners, was actually a single young girl. This made the Gu family prepare to select a family man to match with Zhao Chanlin, so as to envelop him and completely swallow the monks of Lao Hanzhai. In fact, the reason why the Gu family happily recognized Zhao Chanlin's inheritance was not only because she was very loyal, but also because she was young, beautiful and single, which was very convenient to envelop.
Secondly, Zhao Chanlin's cousin, who is also said to be a beautiful young man, actually intends to ask the Gu family girl. This made many Gu family women who accepted the fate of marriage and were ready to recruit young talents for their families.
So, when Qianxin and Zhao Chanlin arrived, they found that the Sword Hall was almost full. And it's all young men and women.
These young people are very strong, and some people have already begun to fight on the stage.
Looking at the crowded banquet scene, Zhao Chanlin smiled at Qianxin: "You seem to be quite popular! There are twice as many people at today's banquet as last night." ”
Zhao Chanlin introduced Qianxin's identity to the gatekeeper, and the man shouted loudly: "Old Hanzhai Zhao Zhuang owner and his cousin Qianxin have arrived!"
Hum -
The discussion boiled like a tide.
When the main protagonist arrived, the young people who were playing the martial arts competition also stopped at the same time.
In the middle of the hall is the stage of the martial arts.
Facing the martial arts stage is the main position. At this time, there were already several elderly monks sitting on the main seat, and they were the elders of the Gu family. They also stopped commenting, and looked meaningfully at He Qianxin and Zhao Chanlin.
On the left side of the martial arts platform, the Gu man was sitting. One by one, they sat upright and did their best to show their bearing.
Their eyes all fell on Zhao Chanlin.
"Sure enough, it's a beauty!"
"Good figure, beautiful face, marrying her is also a wonderful thing!"
Most of the men looked at Zhao Chanlin greedily. Some people covet beauty, and some people covet the capital she brings. Only a few men had a proud expression on their faces, as if they were disdainful.
Qianxin glanced at these Gu family elites, and only felt that there were a group of mediocre people: "Compared with the Hanmen sword boys who appeared in Sword Trial Town, these people are only slightly better in terms of momentum and cultivation. One by one, they are all pretending to be the head of the second ancestor, and in terms of character and conduct, there are few good goods. ”
On the right side of the stage, sitting is a young woman from the Gu family.
Among this group of people, there are a few that make Qianxin's eyes shine: "These girls are much more mature than the men opposite." Whether it's because of family teaching or personal cultivation, they are still quite temperamental. There are a few who are also very showy and wise. ”
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little disdainful: "The Gu family still has good goods." Why are the women who went to Sword Town so disgusting this year?
Those Gu women were also looking at Qianxin.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
"The blood qi is so strong, and the cultivation must be very high!"
"He's seen it!"
Many people began to exchange heads.
A few with good bearing, but they are neither arrogant nor flattering, but nod at Qianxin dignified to say hello.
This "debut attention" is actually only half a minute.
Soon, a middle-aged and elegant man with a kind smile came out of the crowd and walked towards Qianxin and Zhao Chanlin: "Come, Chanlin, Qianxin!
This person looked like he had been a receptionist for a long time, and as soon as he learned his name, he shouted very affectionately. He led Zhao Chanlin to the first women's seat on the right, and Qianxin to the first men's seat on the left.
