Chapter 44: The Star Picking Conference

On April 27, on the shore of Jinglan Lake outside Qianze City, the sky was clear and blue.

Before dawn, there were a lot of people gathered by the lake to watch the excitement, and these were all in advance to occupy a place.

However, in the really good position, a platform has already been set up, chairs and stools have been set up, and the disciples of the various sects are only waiting for the entrance of the disciples.

The water surface is not rippling, a wooden trestle bridge is straight to the center of the lake, and the lotus-shaped white jade platform is flush with the water surface, which is the place where each sect shows its own unique learning today.

There were only four people in the Yunshan faction, and compared to the mighty teams of other sects, in terms of pomp, the Yunshan faction lost a lot first.

When they arrived at the shores of Jinglan Lake, the four of them were quickly submerged in the sea of people.

Fortunately, the city lord of Qianze City arranged a small servant to guide the way, although there were many people, it would not be chaotic.

Follow the bluestone path by the lake and walk all the way to the stands.

Yu Xiaowan walked in the front, she was wearing a tea-white dress today, the scabbard of the sword around her waist was made of ebony, wrapped in reckless skin, and decorated with silver agate, just by looking at the scabbard, you can guess that this is a rare good sword.

Yu Xiaowan walked in a crowd of brocade clothes, otherworldly and very elegant.

Those uninformed people watched from afar, and only said that this was the disciple who took the stage today.

Meng Qinghe is not badly dressed, the silver-red skirt looks very ostentatious, with her bright and moving appearance, on the shore of Jinglan Lake in early summer, like a blooming pomegranate flower.

It's a pity that the people who come to Jinglan Lake today, whether they are going to take the stage or watch the excitement, are all dressed luxuriously and gorgeously.

After all, in a crowded place, everyone doesn't want to look cold.

Ye Jibai was relatively low-key, he was wearing a crab shell blue robe, looking down at Meng Qinghe and the corners of his skirt, deaf to the noise around him.

If it weren't for Meng Qinghe, he wouldn't have appeared at the Star Picking Conference.

Yin Yunsheng walked at the back, looking around with a pair of eyes, compared to the restraint at the banquet in the City Lord's Mansion last night, at this moment, on the shore of Jinglan Lake, the disciples of various sects looked much more comfortable.

The seat of the Yunshan faction is next to the Tongtian Pavilion, which is also a sect of cultivating immortals, on the Sizhao Mountain outside the city of Chunyi, due to the long distance, there are only six disciples who came to participate in the star picking conference this time.

After greeting each other politely, the four members of the Yunshan faction sat down.

In the best viewing position of the stands, a girl in a smoky purple skirt looked towards the Yunshan faction.

Shangguan Lan sat on the right side of the girl, wearing an indigo robe pressed with silver thread moire, and she was extravagant.

But when he spoke to the girl, he bowed his head slightly.

It shows the dignity of that girl's identity, but I don't know what it is?

I heard that in previous years, there were more than 100 large and small sects participating in the Star Picking Conference, but although this year there are less than 100, there are 80 or 90 sects.

The small sects are not worth mentioning, even the city lord's mansion invites guests, and the ones who invite are all "major sects", and now those who can have seats are also the major sects.

However, the small sect also has to show its martial arts on stage, and if it is lucky enough to recruit one or two good seedlings to go back, it will also be a happy event.

But most of the small sects are mainly to join in the fun.

After all, it's not their turn to pick the good ones, and the bad ones are brought back with a few more mouths to eat, which is really not worth it.

And the Great Gate Sect really wants to recruit a few martial arts wizards back to ensure the longevity of the sect.

The rules of the Star Picking Conference, because there are many sects, for the sake of fairness, each sect decides the order of entry by lot.

Meng Qinghe had something hidden in his heart, so he pulled the stick holder at random, and then touched a bamboo stick.

The carved end is hidden in the stick, and the exposed bamboo stick does not make any difference.

It's a matter of luck, and there's no need to try it one by one.

Ye Jibai looked at her absent-mindedness, hesitated for a moment, and leaned over when Yin Yunsheng leaned his head to look at the bamboo stick in her hand.

"Hiss......" Yin Yunsheng gasped.

Senior Sister Meng's luck is really ...... Not ordinary!

Because there are many sects, just to show their martial arts on stage, they will arrange three or four days to carry it out, and then it will be the time for each sect to recruit new ones.

In the past three or four days, the order of play was arranged with "A, B, C, D".

Today is the first field, and the bamboo sticks in Meng Qinghe's hands are engraved with the two big characters "Ding Mo", which means that she is the last to take the stage, and it is not her turn today.

In fact, to be more serious, "Ding Mo" is not the last, because the last one to appear, there is no need to draw, and every year it is given to a singing team in Qianzecheng.

The troupe was a great performer for the star-picking conference, although few people would stay to watch it.

That is to say, Meng Qinghe's lottery of "Ding Mo" is equivalent to the meaning of the finale.

The little guy holding the stick bowed down and said with a smile: "Congratulations, our city lord watched the stars last night, and measured the sect that appeared in the finale of this star picking conference, and it will definitely rise to the top and crown the martial arts." ”

Meng Qinghe raised his eyebrows: Your city lord still has this ability?

Yin Yunsheng whispered: "Senior Sister Meng, don't take it seriously, I heard that every time the person who draws this lottery at the Star Picking Conference will hear this sentence. ”

Meng Qinghe had also heard this, and I heard that Ye Guzhou of the Yunshan faction drew the lottery of this "Ding Mo", but he was replaced by the Lingbo faction, and Ye Guzhou was the first to play in the end.

As a result, at the star picking conference with "beauty" as the first standard, Ye Guzhou became famous in a fight, and by the time Lingbo faction came on the field, there was no one in the stands.

Today's star-picking conference speaks with strength, and this draw to the finale is a gratifying thing.

It's a pity that Meng Qinghe's strength is average, she is afraid that she can't suppress this axis, as long as she makes a slight mistake, this finale will become a joke.

Fortunately, Meng Qinghe is thick-skinned, and she is not afraid of being laughed at.

Even Ye Jibai no longer mentioned the words "don't embarrass me".

He himself lost face last night...... Boss!

After returning to the inn last night, Meng Qinghe didn't dare to leave Ye Jibai's room, for fear that he would do something stupid while he was alone.

Outside the window of the No. 1 room of Tianzi in Wanli Inn is the Luoying River, if Ye Jibai jumps, he doesn't know where he will drift.

That's right, Meng Qinghe slept in Ye Jibai's room last night, but she swore that she didn't do anything.

She didn't even get on the bed, she sat on the pedal next to the bed, grabbed Ye Jibai's wrist, tilted her head and leaned against the edge of the bed and slept all night.

My neck still hurts terribly.

Ye Jibai slept like a pig last night, and when Meng Qinghe woke up in the morning, her hand was still clasped on Ye Jibai's wrist, and that guy didn't even turn over all night.

Meng Qinghe didn't expect that he would sleep so deeply, and he didn't even have a dream.

When she woke up, not only did her neck hurt, but her head was also uncomfortable, as if the drunk person was her, not Ye Jibai.

However, since she doesn't have to go on stage today, can she go back to the inn to rest?
