Volume 1: Like Clouds Chapter 84: Oiran Conference: Session 1

The rain began to fall heavier and heavier, crackling down on the roof of the carriage.

Lu Tan looked at the sky through the small window, and the golden thunder light bursted, as if a giant dragon was peeping in the dark clouds, faintly ominous.

He withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes.

……

The venue was changed to the square in front of the palace, and the entire "stage" area was surrounded by fourteen carved phoenix-patterned beams and pillars made of earth-based spiritual power, and a huge piece of clear ice was laid flat on top to keep out the rain.

It can be seen that it is the handiwork of Shen Mengyu and Luo Xiangwan.

On the walls of the palace sat the royal relatives, and a group of bejeweled women sat on it.

After practicing with the training book given by the system, Lu Tan found that he was more deaf and clear-sighted than before. In his previous life, his eyesight was very good, and he could see the position of the bullseye from ten meters away, but now it is obviously a step higher, because he is standing under this wall, and he can even see the seats and expressions of the people above.

Luo Xiangwan, who was acting as the prisoner of the country, sat on the top floor, looking down on everything in the world. Lu Manshuang, who is the prime minister, and Shen Mengyu, who is the national teacher, sit on her left and right.

While the rest of the Lu family was sitting around Lu Manshuang, Lu Ning's face was hollowed out and thin, and he seemed to be very cold, holding a cup of steaming hot tea in his hand.

Only Lu Sisi, who was holding the child, sat farther away, and the rest of the Lu family didn't seem to want to be close to her.

Shen Mengyu was very sensitive, and seemed to feel Lu Tan's peeping, and his eyes swept over instantly. Lu Tan retracted his gaze, and together with Xiao Yanagi, he pulled his hood and found a corner to sit quietly.

Xie Wan and Xie Ruyun also have their own places on the city tower, and they have already taken their seats at this time, originally Xie Wan invited Lu Tan to sit on the stage with her, but Lu Tan thought that it would be very troublesome for him to go on stage with Xiaoliu for a while, and as the eldest son of the Lu family, if he sat on it but did not sit in the camp of the Lu family, I am afraid that he would have a lot of trouble.

But at this time, Lu Tan looked at Chen Qing'e, Zhu Yuanbao and others who were sitting in the front row of the civilian area under the stage, and had some doubts for no reason.

Xie Ruyun is a businessman, why can his status be so high that he can sit with the princes and nobles? And so naturally, no one questioned it.

In confusion, the contestants have begun to appear one by one.

A total of 25 contestants signed up, such as Yunguan, Yicuilou and Wanliuge each with six people, and the rest were selected from small shops or other cities. In order to cooperate with Luo Xiangwan fishing, Xiaoliu and Lu Tan never showed up, so there were only twenty-three people left on the stage.

Among these twenty-three people, there are as many as seven people with spiritual power.

It doesn't seem like much, but you must know that in the past few years, there was only one spiritualist in the Qinglou industry, but Xiao Yanagi was alone.

Xiao Liu looked at the spiritualist on the stage, felt a little pressure, and bit his ear with Lu Tan in a low voice: "If I can get a ranking this time, the money I saved will be enough to redeem myself, and when I successfully redeem myself, I will rest for seven days and seven nights, go out and have fun, and then go home to see my mother and sister...... It's just that now it seems that the competition is fierce! ”

Lu Tan turned his head and glanced at him with a strange expression: "This flag is not rising!" ”

Koyanagi was inexplicable: "What blessing?" ”

Lu Tan shook his head: "It's nothing, believe us, with the talent and looks of you and me, we will definitely be able to." ”

Xiao Yanagi nodded, thinking of so many new ideas and that touching poem that Lu Tan came up with, and relieved.

It's just that their voices fell, and a few viewers not far away chatted about the day, and the sound was not small, just in the ears.

"Why did Ruyun Pavilion send a few of them this year? What about Qinghuan Gongzi? And what about the son of the Lu family? That son is really beautiful, compared to the second son......"

"Shhhh Which son of the Lu family is good-looking, is also a civilian like you say? If you want me to say, he is playing in Ruyun Pavilion, and when he has had enough, he will naturally go home. ”

"No, no, haven't you heard of it? The rumor some time ago said that it was Lu Gongzi and Qinghuan Gongzi...... All disfigured by illness!! It is said that the second son was harmed! ”

"Ah......h

"And you're too ill-informed, aren't you? Qinghuan Gongzi is no longer irreplaceable. What is the Sun Cult, have you heard of it? Their secret method of preaching can allow ordinary people to have spiritual roots and use spiritual arts! The era when nobles could use spiritual magic is a thing of the past! ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and everyone immediately gathered around this man to inquire carefully what he meant, and there were also a few people who had also heard a little about Yang Yuanjiao and introduced them to others with him.

Lu Tan also had the task of killing the high priest of the Yang Yuan Sect, and he wanted to listen to some rumors carefully, but the host on the stage appeared impassionedly, and with the sound of thundering drums, everyone's gossip also disappeared.

For the people of Luoyun Country, the Oiran Conference is tantamount to the Spring Festival Gala, on this day, the commoners can also see the top of the Qinglou perform for them, and even choose their favorite one, this kind of opportunity to judge others for free is not common.

So everyone was very enthusiastic and applauded wildly.

In such an atmosphere, the host first had a meaningless greeting, and then introduced several judges of this year's Oiran Conference in turn: "National Teacher Shen Mengyu!" Prime Minister Lu Manshuang! ”

Every time a person's name is called, the audience will burst into warm applause.

Especially when Shen Mengyu was introduced, the thunderous applause almost knocked over the ice cubes seven or eight meters high.

"This time, we still use spiritual power blades to vote, three pieces per person, and you can voluntarily vote for your favorite contestants after each round of competition, you can have three pieces in a round, you can also vote in one round, or you can not vote at all! After the end of the third round, settle who has the most leaves! ”

Lu Tan felt a little novel, this method was a bit like a singing talent show.

"Of course, you can still buy blades with silver taels~ Each area has a responsible psychic master, you can find them if necessary, the price remains the same, and it will always be an affordable tael of gold!"

After speaking, the eight corners of the audience lit up with spiritual light, and each spiritual magician released spiritual power to signal everyone's position.

The atmosphere of the scene has been pushed higher and higher, and some women even frantically rolled up their sleeves, revealing a white and tender arm, and began to shake their arms, shouting the name of their main promoter on the stage.

The host was very loud to calm the scene, and he shouted the last sentence hoarsely: "Because Your Majesty is still practicing in Lishan, this time the highest award will be awarded by our Luoyun God of War An and the county lord on his behalfβ€”β€”"

After speaking, a beam of light hit Luo Xiangwan.

Luo Xiangwan stood up from the chair and waved his hand, and the inner layer of the ice suddenly turned into a waterfall, and the water splashed down, and then turned into countless leaves, three pieces per person, and flew into everyone's hands.

Lu Tan and Liu Qinghuan also got their respective leaves, and he touched them carefully, only to feel that his hands were cold and full of spiritual power.

also once again had a new understanding of Luo Xiangwan's spiritual power.

When Lu Tan ascended to a higher level, he discovered that a spirit master could perceive the rank of some spirit magicians who were lower than his own spirit level, but those who were higher than him could not perceive it.

For example, he now knows that Xie Wan is middle-level and Lu Ning is middle-level.

It's a very mysterious feeling, like when you meet a new friend, sometimes you can tell at a glance what kind of job that friend is, whether it's a salesperson, a service person, or a civil servant. But sometimes it doesn't work out anyway.

Looking at the human spirit level, I also feel this way, but the answer is more certain, it seems that he should be this in the dark.

It's just that for Luo Xiangwan, Shen Mengyu and others, Lu Tan never saw it.

The first competition was divided into two groups, one was a psychic and the other was an ordinary person.

Ordinary people changed venues, and some of them were probably relatives and friends, and they followed.

The remaining ninety percent of the audience stayed where they were, waiting to see the spiritual competition.

This is Luo Yun's first time in decades!

On the stage, a small servant carried seven half-person-high flower pots to the stage, and seven men of different shapes followed the stage, standing behind the flower pots with their hands down.

Lu Tan looked at a particularly familiar man on the stage, who was the man who was sitting on Lu Sisi's lap in the backyard of Buzhuang before, and was suspected to be the biological father of Lu Sisi's child.

But after that, every time he saw Lu Sisi acting with Chen Xiang, Lu Tan almost forgot about this person.

Observing him inquiringly, the new host came on stage with a small flower pot, stood in front of the stage with a smile, and introduced the rules of the game.

"This competition has a total of three incense sticks......

There is a spirit seed in the pot, and there is a palm print on the side of the pot. Press your hand and input the spiritual power into the flower pot, and the spirit seed will sprout, and the stronger the spiritual power, the more stable and more stable the spiritual power output, and the more lush the plant will grow.

After the introduction, the master of ceremonies also pressed his hand on the small pot in his hand, and after the spiritual power was entered, a vine slowly grew out of the pot, and the vine crawled out and fell softly around the pot, and there were several clusters of yellow flowers the size of rice grains shining with thunder on it, which was particularly conspicuous in this gloomy weather.

He's a psychic too!

Rao is Xiaoliu is sluggish, and he also realized that something was wrong: "Why are there so many low-level spiritual magicians recently?" Where the hell did you come from......"

Lu Tan shook his head and agreed with Xiao Yanagi's words: "It's really a little weird. ”

He raised his head and looked for Luo Xiangwan in the crowd on the city wall, only to see that Luo Xiangwan was also frowning, and was saying something to the people around him.

Lu Tan retracted his gaze and touched the fire god pupil hanging on his waist.

The audience didn't think so much, everyone just applauded in shock, and the master of ceremonies smiled and said that he was ugly and retreated.

The seven contestants couldn't wait, they rolled up their sleeves one after another, each scheming to show a piece of their arm, and each of them hung various bracelets and jingled, making the rich women in the audience scream again and again.

With the host's order, they put their hands on the palm prints on the flower pots.

Then something strange happened.
