Chapter 481: Two Girls and One Play
Leaving the palace, it was not early when Shao Xi returned home, and before going to the palace, Shao Xi was still complaining in his heart that he would not be able to live in peace these days, but at this time he was very happy.
This trip to the palace can be regarded as a new younger brother, although the other party's age is actually much older than himself, but if it is about status, then Xu Maocheng is really a younger brother at present.
After returning home, Shao Xi began to calculate that tomorrow would be the day of the Ninth Double Ninth Festival in early September, and it was time for him to go to Wangyue Tower to complete the transaction between himself and the seven sons of the Tang Sect.
Shao Xi took out the nine-eyed heavenly stone and the other twelve heavenly eye stones from his waist bag, and carefully checked them again, lest anything go wrong.
The twelve Heavenly Eye Stones are three red, three gray, one orange, and five yellow.
Although Shao Xi didn't know what the Seven Sons of the Tang Sect would use to exchange these Heavenly Eye Stones for him, Shao Xi believed that what the Seven Sons of the Tang Sect could take out in exchange for these Heavenly Eye Stones must not be ordinary things.
Shao Xi rewrapped these Tianyan stones and put them in his pocket, just waiting for tomorrow to go to Wangyue Tower to meet the seven sons of the Tang Sect for a while.
Previously, Tang Ming's appearance didn't look very eye-catching, but after hearing Lao Wu say that the other people were very distinctive, Shao Xi was also curious for a while, and at this time, he began to look forward to meeting those seven people tomorrow.
The next day, the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, Chongyang.
Shao Xi got up early in the morning, and made careful preparations at home, hung the waist bag containing the Tianyan Stone on his waist, and weighed it with his hands.
I thought that after today, the stones that had been in this waist bag for eleven years would be gone, and the empty waist bag could be filled with something of commemorative value.
Although it was late autumn at this time and the weather was already very cool, Shao Xi still inserted the folding fan with the words "A promise and a thousand gold" in his waist.
After all, this was a gift that Tang Qing brought to him at the beginning, and this time he went to meet and recognize each other.
After everything was ready, Shao Xi personally went to the backyard to take "Tingxue" out and went out of the house alone.
He didn't plan to take Lao Wu with him on this trip, although the old wine Mengzi was very experienced in the rivers and lakes, and he was old enough in front of the seven sons of the Tang Sect, but I heard that there was also a wine Mengzi among the seven people on the other side.
If these two guys meet and drink together, it is estimated that no one can stop them, and if they don't do it well, it will add a lot of trouble.
Besides, his trip was just to make a deal with the other party, and he had already learned the details of the seven people from Lao Wu, so there was no need to take him to show his eyes together.
Shao Xi got on the horse and did not immediately go to the Moon Tower, but walked around the city, and went back and forth to the Egret Academy, Yuyan Bookstore and Yuyantang to look at his business.
Seeing that it was approaching noon, Shao Xi walked to the Moon Tower.
The business of Mochizuki Tower is still as prosperous as ever, and it is close to noon, only to see people coming and going, and guests are like clouds.
Shao Xi came to the door of the Moon Tower, and the guy who greeted the guests had already run over to take the horse from Shao Xi, while the other guy led Shao Xi into the Moon Tower.
As he walked, he asked, "Childe came alone?" I don't know if it's in the downstairs lobby or in the private room on the second floor? ”
Shao Xi glanced at the lobby on the first floor, and didn't seem to see the person he wanted to see.
So he turned to the guy and asked, "I came here today to meet people, I wonder if you have a group of seven people here today?" It should be five men and two women. ”
That guy was very clever, and when he heard Shao Xi's question, he hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes!" It's not long after I arrived.,At this time, it's in the lobby on the second floor.,They also said that they were meeting here.,It turns out that the person they're waiting for is you? ”
As soon as Shao Xi heard that the seven people had arrived, he went up to the second floor under the guidance of the guy, and as soon as he ascended the stairs to the lobby on the second floor, he saw at a glance that there were seven people sitting at the two tables by the window.
Six people, to be exact, and one person was sitting on the window, one foot on a chair, the other on the lower edge of the window frame, leaning against the window and drinking alone, not like the other six were talking to each other.
Shao Xi recognized one of them as Tang Ming at a glance, and the guy also confirmed that these seven people were exactly what he had said before.
Shao Xi instructed the guy to bring the best wine and food to the two tables, and asked the guy to count these two tables in his own account, and the guy readily agreed and turned downstairs to prepare the wine and food.
Shao Xi took out the folding fan from his waist and "brushed" it and unfolded it, shaking the folding fan while walking towards the seven people, and only took a few steps to attract the attention of the other seven people.
Tang Ming looked up and recognized Shao Xi, hurriedly got up to greet him, and bowed to Shao Xi, and Shao Xi hurriedly returned the salute.
Tang Ming said to Shao Xi: "Shao Gongzi is really a trustworthy person, we have just come not long ago, Shao Gongzi came over, today our seven brothers and sisters are here to meet Shao Gongzi, Gongzi, please come with me, I will introduce the other six of our Tang Sect Seven Sons for Gongzi." ”
After speaking, he took Shao Xi to the other six.
Shao Xi and Tang Ming came to the six people, and when the six people saw Tang Ming bringing Shao Xi over, they were indifferent except for the one sitting on the window, and the other one in a wheelchair did not get up, and the other four people all stood up and looked at Shao Xi in unison.
Tang Ming introduced them to Shao Xi one by one.
"This is our eldest brother Tang Qing, the people in the rivers and lakes call 'scholars have no intention of using everything', there is no hidden weapon in the world that our eldest brother will not use, and pinching a leaf and petal can hurt people invisibly."
The person Tang Ming was referring to was a man in a cyan robe, who looked much older than Shao Xi, with a few handfuls of beards on the side of his mouth that looked like he was delicate.
Although his appearance is not handsome, he has the air of a scholar, if it weren't for Tang Ming's introduction, Shao Xi really couldn't connect him with a martial arts cultivator, and he looked like a teacher who taught.
That Tang Qing stepped forward and bowed his hand to Shao Xi, and said politely: "Down is Tang Qing, the eldest brother among the seven sons of the Tang Sect, and it is really a blessing to meet the son today!" Childe is really as my third brother said, not only dignified and magnificent, but also heroic, really an extraordinary person. ”
This Tang Qing is really as good as his name, his speech and demeanor are elegant, he looks modest and polite, easy and gentle, and he is not in a hurry to speak, but he does have the temperament of a scholar.
Shao Xi bowed his hand and saluted: "In Xia Shao Xi, the Xi of Morning Xi, I think I don't need to introduce myself more, I think Brother Tang Ming has already told you, and it is also an honor to have the honor to meet you today, and I am here to see you." ”
Tang Qing asked with a smile: "I wonder if the folding fan that the third brother gave to Shao Gongzi is still easy to use?" ”
Shao Xi smiled indifferently after hearing Tang Qing's question, and replied: "It's easy to use, and thanks to Brother Tang Qing's fan, I received a good apprentice, and I have to thank Brother Tang Qing for it." ”
Hearing Shao Xi's words, everyone present was surprised.
They had heard Tang Ming introduce Shao Xi carefully before, and they all knew that Shao Xi was only seventeen years old this year, and they couldn't imagine that a seventeen-year-old boy had already accepted an apprentice.
Moreover, I had heard Tang Ming say before, Shao Xi seemed to be at most comparable to Tang Qing in the realm of martial arts, although a young man in the "Imperial Qi Realm" could be said to be a martial arts genius, but when it came to accepting apprentices, it would inevitably seem too early.
However, it is none of their business that people are willing to accept apprentices, and they can't control others, so naturally it is not easy to make comments at will.
Although it was obvious that one of the men and women sitting at the table had a look of disdain on their faces, they did not say anything.
Instead, a little girl dressed in a yellow dress, with pink makeup, bright eyes and cherry blossoms, and a baby-faced girl said with envy: "I didn't expect that this Shao Gongzi had accepted apprentices at such a young age, so his martial arts must be very high, right?" I don't know how it compares to our big brother? ”
Tang Ming saw her speak, so he hurriedly introduced to Shao Xi: "This person who spoke is our sixth sister Tang Qiong, known as 'Thousand Hands Yu'e Silk Lock', good at silk ribbons and grappling skills, this girl has a lively temperament, simple and kind, and is a talker." ”
Before Shao Xi could salute Tang Qiong, the girl expressed her dissatisfaction with Tang Ming's introduction.
"Third brother, you are really excessive! It's just a matter of saying that I'm lively and simple, why do you say I'm a talker? Is it wrong to love to talk?
"The eldest brother is a little bit of a person when he opens his mouth on weekdays, and the article is reasonable; The second brother has to compete with others at every turn, and he always fights outside.
"The fourth sister's mouth is unforgiving, and no sentence is the same when it hurts people; Needless to say, the fifth brother was drunk and dreamed of dying one day, and it was difficult to say something to him clearly.
"The seventh brother is also a stuffy gourd, fiddling with those gadgets all day long, and he doesn't talk to me; And the third brother, you don't see anyone during the day, and you go to the roof at night, are you embarrassed to say me? Hum! ”
Shao Xi listened to the good guy! This little mouth is!
Tang Ming just introduced her, but she provoked such a lot of words from this girl, and she still didn't admit that she was a chatterbox?
Fortunately, there is no such person around me, otherwise I would not have to annoy myself to death?
Tang Qiong was like jumping beans, and this output counted the other seven sons of the Tang Sect, and the other people had different expressions.
Tang Qing couldn't laugh or cry on his face; Tang Ming was dumbfounded; The one in the wheelchair should be Tang Lou, who didn't react to Tang Qiong's words at all; The one sitting at the window didn't seem to have heard what Tang Qiong had just said; Only the other man and woman were unhappy.
I saw the man wearing soft leather light armor, thick eyebrows and square face, and a cynical face tilting his head and pouting and saying to Tang Qiong: "Sixth sister, you are the one with that little mouth, counting a few of us all day long."
"We martial arts cultivators can not move their mouths if they can do it, and if they have the ability to compare with me twice, they can beat me again, don't rely on the fact that you are a girl and always take advantage of us in your mouth."
At this time, the woman in the purple skirt, with a gorgeous and bright face, said: "The sixth sister, this little girl, can only talk about us!" She herself chirped like a little sparrow all day long.
"In the future, if any son marries her home, there is no need to raise parrots at home, but I am afraid that one day people will be annoyed by him."
This woman's words immediately provoked Tang Qiong.
"Fourth sister, I'm your sixth sister! How can anyone who is a sister say this about her sister? You still say that I can't get married, your mouth is so poisonous, if you find a mother-in-law in the future, it's no wonder if you don't make your mother-in-law angry! ”
The woman in the purple dress replied, "Who said I was going to get married?" Do you think I'm thinking about getting married at a young age like you? There is not even a little bit of a big offer, what good is it for a man? All day long, I just think about taking advantage of our women. ”
In one sentence, several men present couldn't help but shake their heads, who said that three women in one play? That's enough for two!
