Shuangshu followed Lu Yuan into a nervous mood.

After entering the two screens, the three of them finally entered the main hall.

The area of this hall is extremely wide, the decoration is simple, and it is full of exotic customs.

The hall was not discussing as the three of them imagined, but a round table was placed, and a room full of sixty or seventy people were sweating around the table to eat hot pot!

The hall is full of steam, full of spicy aroma and various meat aromas.

Lu Yuan raised his head slightly again and saw a slightly higher seat in front of the hall.

A thin-haired, skinny old man, dressed in a voluminous robe, was eating slices of meat with relish in his seat.

This...... Is it the leader of the Shunan Alliance?

Just such a bad old man?

Lu Yuan knew that people could not be disguised, and this bad old man did exude the powerful spiritual pressure of a sixth-order cultivator.

Lu Yuan led the three of them and stood not far from the old man and said:

"Juniors Lu Yuan, Guili, and Zhou Wanzhi have seen the alliance leader!"

"Uh-huh......" The old man glanced at them as he ate on the hot slices of meat.

When he had eaten all the meat in his mouth, the old man asked in a hoarse voice:

"What sect are you from? What do you have to say?"

Lu Yuan looked around: "Alliance leader......

"Oh! Hehe, it doesn't matter. It's all my own."

At such a close distance, the Sword of Silence Demon was able to use the "Phantom Heart" skill on him.

But there is a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides, and Lu Yuan is not sure that he will succeed.

In the event of defeat, the trio will be captured.

Therefore, he did not dare to make reckless mistakes.

Seeing that there was no chance to face it alone, Lu Yuan had an idea, and immediately replied, "Well, that's the case......

"Wait," Lu Yuan's words had just started when the alliance leader interrupted him, "The three of you, aren't you the people the old man is looking for recently?" Hehehehe!"

He didn't speak loudly, but the hall, which had been noisy before, fell silent in an instant.

There was only the gurgling sound of a stove boiling the soup.

Zhou Wanzhi's heart sank: It's over!

"Hahahaha!" Lu Yuan lifted his forehead and laughed.

Laughter echoed through the hall for a long time.

The audience was stunned by his laughter.

Hu Buhui taught him before he laughed when he encountered this situation, so as to allow time for himself to clear his mind and think of countermeasures.

At the same time, it can also make the other party unclear and dare not rashly attack.

It seems that this trick really worked.

The alliance leader also sneered, "I don't know why you're laughing. As soon as the three of you came to our Shu land, you were full of murderous spirit, and you destroyed more than ten demon caves in a row in one day, which is really powerful."

"Win the prize!" Lu Yuan thought to himself that he wanted to know anyway, so he wasn't so worried.

"In Xia Lu Yuan, after seeing the alliance leader this time, I realized that the rumors I heard before were false. Hey, alas, alas! If the alliance leader thinks that the three of us destroying demons are breaking the rules of the Shunan Alliance, then anyway, your cultivation is so much higher than us, if you want to kill it, you have to listen to it."

Lu Yuan's words successfully aroused the curiosity of the alliance leader: "Let's not talk about fighting and killing. What do you mean by what rumors you just said?"

Guili and Zhou Wanzhi were also confused: they hadn't heard any special rumors before.

Lu Yuan arched his hand and said, "I heard earlier that the leader of our Shunan Alliance is a person with a broad mind, great wisdom, and great tolerance. But after meeting today, I didn't think about ......."

The alliance leader was not deceived by this series of good words. He smiled and said, "Don't pour ecstasy soup on the old man. If you break my rules, it will naturally be a dead end!"

Lu Yuan saw that he was not in the trap

（M.. COM）

, and immediately said proudly, "Hahahaha! It's ridiculous that such a far-sighted predecessor didn't know it when he died, but he wanted the life of a low-level monk. It seems that you, the leader of the alliance, are really good."

People around listen

When he said this, they were all furious.

"Alliance leader! This kid is too arrogant. Kill him now!"

"Yes! Kill him!"

"Kill all three!"

"Kill! Kill!"

The leader waved everyone to be quiet.

He stared at Lu Yuan with wide, protruding eyes: "You said that this seat is dying? Hahahaha! Fun and fun!"

Everyone laughed too.

"The Shunan Alliance is in danger, but a group of people don't know it. Looks like I'm doing the wrong thing. No matter what, the younger generation will admit it! Come! Let's do it!"

Lu Yuan closed his eyes as he spoke, and put on a posture of being bound by others.

Some of the deacons were ready to come forward and tie up the three.

The alliance leader immediately said, "Wait!"

He walked to Lu Yuan's side suspiciously: "You said three times and twice that this seat is dying, and you say it. What's going on?"

Lu Yuan opened one eye and looked at him, "What? Want to hear it? This is your league's valet?"

The alliance leader waved his hand: "Add three pairs of dishes and chopsticks!"

After speaking, let the three of them sit at a table with themselves:

"Lu Xiaoyou has spoken openly today!"

Lu Yuan sat down and took a sip of herbal tea, and said slowly:

"The two major alliances of Southern and Western Shu, the strength in Shuzhong should be relatively weak."

As soon as these words came out, everyone whispered.

The alliance leader nodded: "Yes, so what?"

"The relationship between the Shudong Alliance and your alliance used to be good, but when it comes to your generation of alliance leaders, because of some things, the two sides are very unhappy."

"There is such a thing."

"So when Shuxi invaded Guimeng, Shudong came to help before, but now he is sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight. Yes and no?"

The alliance leader nodded silently.

"You're an outsider, but you know a lot about us old masters."

Lu Yuan smiled: "Shuzhong colluded with Shubei again, in a vain attempt to swallow your alliance first. However, Shubei is afraid of Shudong. At the same time, it was also worried that once Shunan was annexed, he would have to cross Shuzhong to manage a part of Shunan. The trick of 'Yue Guo to despise the distance" is very clear in "The Legend of Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period", I believe the alliance leader should have read it."

That allusion, the alliance leader naturally knows-

The Qin and Jin alliances wanted to annex Zheng. But Jin was located between Qin and Zheng. If Qin wanted to manage the Zheng lands, he would have to cross the Jin state. This is, of course, a very fatal thing.

If the relationship between the two countries is very good, it is needless to mention, if the two countries turn their faces one day, then Zheng Guo will be taken away by the Jin State.

The relationship between these three countries is just like today's Shudi Alliance.

Everyone was shocked by Lu Yuan's insightful remarks.

Everyone gave the young man a thumbs up.

In fact, these things are sporadically recorded in "Shushan and Shuhai".

Lu Yuan just integrated and processed them.

The alliance leader immediately changed his face: "Lu Xiaoyou seems to have done his homework for this matter. I appreciate you. So what do you do next?"

"Solve the elbow and armpit first!"

"You mean, settle the Shuxi Alliance first?"

Lu Yuan took a bite of the meat and said loudly, "Yes!"

The alliance leader picked up the wine glass and poured it full for Lu Yuan and his own glass:

"What's the best idea?"

"Win over the Shu ASEAN Lord."

The alliance leader laughed dumbly: "Hahahaha! This matter is even more difficult than the difficulty of Shu Dao!"

（M.. COM）

Lu Yuan clinked glasses with him:

"Of course I know your unpleasantness. How about we make a deal?"

"What deal?"

Lu Yuan deliberately said loudly, "A deal that is beneficial to the Shunan Alliance. It's just not appropriate to let more people know too much about it at the moment."

When everyone heard Lu Yuan talking, they had long hoped that he could come up with one

to solve the current dilemma, so they all consciously bowed their heads and ate hot pot.

The hall was again a sea of bustle.

Rose, and Tuesday didn't understand what Lu Yuan was talking about at all, so they had to squeeze out some smiles very cooperatively.

The alliance leader set up a circular soundproof magic circle very interestingly, covering the two of them.

"And both of them." Lu Yuan looked at Shuangshu.

The circle immediately expanded to four people.

"Alliance Leader, I don't know your name yet. But I've heard that you're a sorcerer, and that person will die instantly if your name is pronounced."

"Hahahaha! That's an exaggeration. Actually, it's not that godly. Old man Lu Teng."

"Lord Lu Meng's outspokenness is the beginning of our friendly cooperation." Lu Yuan smiled lightly.

"I would like to hear the details of the transaction that Xiaoyou said."

Lu Yuan took another bite of meat and said unhurriedly:

"Lord Shu is a real foodie. He loves hot pot, doesn't he?"

Lu Teng nodded.

"Guimeng has studied a lot of hot pot bases with them before, and developed many dishes and dipping sauces. The cooperation between the two sides is very pleasant.

"As a result, your last one broke his promise and stole many secret recipes to make deals with the North. The Shu ASEAN Lord obviously knew about this, but he couldn't grasp the evidence, so he could only pinch his nose and suffer a secret loss."

Hearing Lu Yuan expose all the ugly things about this alliance, Lu Teng's old face was a little unbearable. He smiled awkwardly and stroked his already thinning long hair.

"And the hot pot you developed is not only delicious and eaten regularly, but also strengthens the body, and even has benefits for cultivation and improvement. Of course, these are secondary. In fact, this matter is ultimately a matter of face." Lu Yuan and Shuangshu touched a cup, and then drank it all.

Guili wanted to pour wine for him, but Lu Teng snatched it and poured it for him.

Then he filled the glasses of the two beauties.

"He's such a big alliance in the Shudong Alliance, and he was stolen like this and suffered a dumb loss, how do you think they will be mixed up in the future?"

"Xiaoyou's analysis is very reasonable! It's really not a matter of simple recipes, it's a matter of face and majesty!"

Lu Yuan continued: "If you want to win over Shudong, I think you can send the secret recipe back generously first, bow your head and apologize. I wonder if you have that energy?"

Lu Teng's protruding eyes suddenly became as sharp as an eagle's skull.

He stared at the ground and thought for a while, then drank a glass of wine:

"Okay!"

"Good! The alliance leader really has a big picture." Lu Yuan said appreciatively, "However, this is not enough. Because these are their things."

"So what's next?"

"Next, just leave it to you."

"Little friend, are you really sure?"

"Lord Lu Meng, your cultivation is two orders higher than mine, and you can completely pinch me to death with your strength. Hehe. If I'm not sure, then I'm not playing with my own life?"

Hearing Lu Yuan say this, Lu Teng immediately made a decision: "Okay! Then let's go to the Dongshu Alliance on a certain day!"

"Okay. But don't rush yet. Lord Lu," Lu Yuan said with a smile, "I said before that we had a deal, and you haven't asked me what I want from you!"
