Chapter 188: Going to the Banquet
"Hmm......" Li Lan nodded lightly with a bit of crying, and the jade fingers were still twisted in front of her, "That dance party was organized by the Shen family." Shen Lili of the Shen family is my good best friend, and this time her twelfth birthday was held in the form of a ball. ”
"The Shen family ......" Yun Yi muttered, he came out in a hurry, but he only had a general understanding of the situation in the Li Mansion, and he didn't know anything about other families and other forces in this sector.
Seeing this, Li Lan explained: "The Shen family operates the largest weapon shop in our Glory Ninth District, and the weapons of many families and forces are all from their family, and even the weapon channels of the crusader camp are obtained through the Shen family. ”
When Yun Yi heard this, he couldn't help but smack his tongue, no matter what time it was, some chambers of commerce and weapons dealers with background and strength would always be the objects that the forces were unwilling to offend, because such an existence was no longer just a simple family in a deep sense. Just like the Li Mansion, a large conglomerate, it is a transcendent existence among the dominant families of the Ninth District of Glory - because a family that holds the economic vein will always be the object of attachment and friendship by others.
"That ball, although it was Lily's birthday ball, was not just a gathering for us young people on some levels, but more of a communication and socialization. Such mature words came out of Li Lan's mouth, and it seemed a little more inappropriate for her age, but this was normal for a child who dominated the family.
Yun Yi frowned and said, "Then you still want to take me there?" Although my character is very good, I have no background and no strength, and going over with you will only embarrass you." ”
"Bah, bastard, you bastard, if you have a good character. Will you bully me?" Li Lan pouted and looked at Yun Yi with an expression that we don't need to discuss that you are a bastard. She snorted softly and said with some embarrassment. "As for why I took you there--does Miss Ben have a choice?! Miss Ben is notoriously bad-tempered, and she is rude and eccentric, and has few friends, and she has to dig three feet into the ground if she wants to find a male companion.
Yun Yi pursed his lips, if I hadn't looked at you differently, it would have been for the bounty. I'm not going to take on this task either...... Of course, just think about it, if you say it, I'm afraid you won't have a good life.
"As for embarrassment or not, isn't Miss Ben less embarrassed? Hmph! Just say it, whether to go or not!" Li Lan raised her eyebrows and looked at Yun Yi, although she looked up, she always gave people a condescending feeling. Yun Yi shrugged his shoulders, "As long as you are paid enough overtime, it doesn't matter if you are a cow or a horse." ”
"You...... You bastard!"
"Bastards have income. The good old man has nothing, and if you say I'm a bastard, I'll be a bastard. "Yun Yiman doesn't care, anyway, he will go to school after the task is completed. I don't think I will have more intersections with Li Lan in the future, "Take a good rest, although it will be that dance party in a few days." However, in the past few days, your cultivation will not be able to fall behind at all!"
Let's talk about it. Yun Yi looked at the sky that he cared about whether it was too late, and turned around and left the lakeside.
"Wait!" Li Lan's somewhat eager voice came from behind Yun Yi. Immediately, the delicate figure walked quickly to his side, "Bastard, I don't know your name yet!"
"My name is Yunyi, the clouds of the clouds, the elegant Yi. ”
Yun Yi waved his hand with his back to Li Lan, and his figure sank into the bamboo sea in a dashing manner.
"Yunyi...... Hmph, that's a pretty good name. The corners of Li Lan's mouth lifted a graceful arc, "Hehe, this birthday dance party is interesting......"
......
Another two days have passed, and Yunyi's sparring task is about to end, this day is the last day of the sparring task, and it is also the day when Li Lan promised to accompany her to the Shen family's Shen Lili's birthday ball.
Li Lan decisively handed over the proof of completion of the sparring task to Yun Yi before the dance began, and it seemed that she didn't think about whether Yun Yi would break the contract and run away. Of course, Yunyi naturally didn't do that.
On this day, the Glory Ninth District surrounded by mountains ushered in the most anticipated day - the twelfth birthday of the daughter of the Shen family. In Glory Heaven, a woman's eleventh and twelfth birthdays are extremely important days, and different families will choose to hold birthday parties for their children at different ages, and it is obvious that Shen Lili is the twelfth birthday chosen.
As Shen Lili's best friend and best friend, Li Lan took Yunyi into the luxury carriage early and galloped towards the Shen family at the other end of the sector.
Before approaching a dense forest of the outer mountains, the luxurious carriage finally stopped. Yun Yi got out of the car and looked, only to see that in the middle of that mountain range, a tall castle stood among the forests! The towering castle building was extraordinary, and he only glanced at it, and he fell in love with this kind of ancient castle full of Gothic architectural style.
"The Shen family has been a weapon casting master since ancient times, and their casting skills are inherited from the Alchemist Association, and it is said that some of the hidden old monsters in the Shen family have received the guidance of the legendary refiners of ancient times, and they have already stepped into the realm of 'Silent Casting' with half a foot!" Li Lan looked up at the ancient castle between the jungles and dense forests, and said leisurely.
Hearing the word "speechless", Yun Yi's expression couldn't help but move, and the hand under the sleeve robe subconsciously rubbed the silver badge awarded by Zhan Lao. He had seen books with the word "speechless" recorded in the library of the Department of History, but because he did not understand the ancient and modern characters, he recognized those words, but he did not recognize them......
At this moment, an old man who looked like a butler walked out from the depths of the dense forest, and a pair of guards followed him a few steps behind.
Li Lan smiled slightly, and after showing the invitation to the Shen family's unique ball, she and Yun Yi entered the ancient castle under the escort of the guards. Entering the castle, walking on the red carpet, Yun Yi suddenly felt comfortable, in the corridor corridor, you can see crystal chandeliers everywhere, the pillars are full of various peculiar styles of carvings, and the air is diffused with this kind of aristocratic atmosphere.
The aristocracy, in fact, declined with the dust of the glorious empire thousands of years ago, but the habits of some nobles are still preserved in many ancient families today, and the Shen family is deeply influenced by them. (To be continued......)
