Chapter 34: The City Lord's Mansion

The next day, a few people rushed to the city lord's mansion early, and flying was not allowed in the city, and a few people could only find a spirit beast car to travel.

In front of the City Lord's Mansion, there is a vermilion gate with true spirit unicorns placed on both sides.

There was already a round and tall middle-aged man standing in front of the door, who seemed to be welcoming guests.

Seeing Ye Bai and his party get out of the car and walk straight up, the man quickly stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

Several people also honestly reported their names and explained their intentions.

"It turned out to be Master Zhao's disciples, and Liu Ming was the steward of the City Lord's Mansion. Come with me. Steward Liu smiled kindly.

A few people happily went, just entered the hospital and instantly felt the strange fragrance, there was a strange-shaped stone in the center of the hospital, the surrounding crystal clear water flow went up the river and washed the stone body, the stone body was covered with all kinds of fairy grass, and the strange fragrance around it may be emitted by this thing.

"It turned out to be passion stone." Sia's voice rang out beside him.

"Passion Stone?" Ye Bai was puzzled.

"Passion stone is a precious strange stone, every day can emit a kind of fragrance, some passion stone has more than a dozen kinds of fragrance, and some even reach hundreds of kinds, is a very high value collection."

Steward Liu glanced at Xi Ya in surprise, he didn't expect that this little girl actually knew the root of the passion stone.

"Miss Xi is very knowledgeable, this is something that the mansion master accidentally found in the Yunling Mountain Range more than ten years ago."

In the small talk, he soon came to the backyard, the backyard is wide, surrounded by all kinds of strange flowers, many elegant seats are placed on both sides, and the middle area sits Zhao Cheng and an elegant middle-aged man, the two seem to be chatting about something.

Zhao Cheng, who was chatting with the city lord Feng Xinglie, also noticed the arrival of several people, and beckoned a few people to come to the elegant seat, and Wan Kong was already standing beside him.

"Master, I still have to receive guests, so I will retire first."

Steward Liu stepped forward to greet Feng Xinglie, and retreated at his signal.

"Come and meet your Uncle Feng." Zhao Cheng smiled and pointed to the city lord next to him.

"Uncle Feng is good." The three of them saluted to Feng Xinglie together according to Zhao Qing's instructions.

"Okay, don't be so polite, let's find a place to sit, I'm more casual and don't have so much etiquette here."

The sound of the wind and the wind and the spirit also relaxed the few people who were slightly nervous at first.

Wankong took a few people to find a position close to Zhao Qing and sat down.

"Old Feng, when will the banquet start, I came on an empty stomach, just waiting for your Bibo wine to quench your cravings."

Before anyone could make a sound, a bald-headed man with thick eyebrows walked into the courtyard with two young people laughing.

"Pei Hu, you coarse man came quite early today, you don't want to think about Ren Yuanguo, but you are thinking about what I am doing with that little wine." Feng Xinglie chuckled and motioned for the big man to sit down.

"Renyuan Guo is a matter for juniors, and it is their blessing to be able to win it, and it is their fate to not be able to win it." Pei Hu waved his hand indifferently.

The two people behind Pei Hu stepped forward to salute Feng Xinglie and Zhao Qing, and then went to find a place to sit.

"It's been a long time, it's rare for Lao Zhao to see you bring several apprentices this time."

Pei Hu then stepped forward to greet Zhao Qing next to him.

"I used to take the boss with me, but today I have a rare opportunity, so I will bring these boys to see the world." Zhao Cheng pointed to several apprentices next to him.

"Let's talk about it when we're done with this, I'm going to find you to refine a spiritual weapon." Pei Hu said in a low voice.

Zhao Qing nodded without doubt, and Ye Bai next to him saw that Zhao Cheng was familiar with this person, so he asked Wankong next to him:

"Senior brother, who is this senior named Pei Hu? It looks like I'm quite familiar with the teacher. ”

"He is the deputy pavilion master of Wanbao Pavilion, one of the three major forces in Xichuan City, and the two people who follow him are his apprentices. The elegant and thin one is called Korean, and the rugged one next to him is Bae Yuan. Many of the various spiritual artifacts sold in Wanbao Pavilion are ordered by the master. ”

After listening to Wankong's narration, Ye Bai thought thoughtfully, it seems that it is estimated that the local forces that came tonight are all from Xichuan City.

Then an old woman in a white robe came and came to Feng Xinglie with a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl to say hello.

The woman motioned for the girl to find a place to sit down, and she sat directly next to Pei Hu unceremoniously.

"Granny Yu, you are here in person, you are really hands-on with your granddaughter. I have to meddle in everything. ”

Faced with Pei Hu's slightly mocking tone, Granny Yu didn't care, and directly closed her eyes to recuperate.

Seeing that Granny Yu didn't pay attention to him, Pei Hu shrugged his shoulders boringly.

"This is Granny Yu, the wife of the old gang leader of the Wushuang Society, and he is accompanied by his granddaughter Xiao Hongying, this woman is extremely rude, you be careful not to provoke her. It's not how strong she is, but that this mother-in-law Yu is extremely protective of her shortcomings. ”

Before Ye Baifa could ask, Wan Ming continued.

"At the beginning, his granddaughter fell in love with someone else's thing and wanted to buy it, but others did not agree with Granny Yu to directly injure that person, although she left the spirit stone to buy something, but this incident also caused a lot of turmoil later, or the city lord came forward to make compensation, and this matter was not over after that."

Will Wushuang be? He suddenly remembered that he met Xu Chang and others yesterday. Ye Bai looked at them while thinking about it, and seemed to notice something, Granny Yu glanced back at Ye Bai.

Seeing that Xiao Hongying, who was next to Granny Yu, also looked at him with her eyes, Ye Bai nodded, and said hello simply, Granny Yu smiled, and Xiao Hongying next to her did glared at him.

Wankong and the others on the side also laughed when they saw Ye Bai's embarrassed appearance.

"I said, why hasn't the old immortal of Donglin arrived yet? It used to be always the first to arrive. Pei Hu shouted.

"You old cat likes to gossip behind your back."

As soon as Pei Hu's words fell, an old man in a green shirt came from outside, with two women and a man behind him.

"If I don't say you don't know when it's coming, what? I've changed my taste over the years, and I like the finale. ”

"I said Pei Hu, if you changed your mouth, you would have said that you would have said that the Pavilion Master of Wanbao Pavilion would have been said a long time ago." Facing Pei Hu's words, the old man was-for-tat.

"This old man is the third elder of the Dan League, one of the three major forces in Xichuan City, and the Dan League is also the strongest of the three forces, and the few people behind him are not very clear." Wan Ming explained to several people.

"Yo! And senior brother, you don't know anything about Bai Xiaosheng, then I will have the opportunity to help you inquire at that time. Ye Bai said with a smile.

Wan Ming smiled and said, "Generally, some inconsequential people, there is no need to waste too much energy to find out the details, but these people can be taken by the three elders of the Dan League to be more or less valuable." ”

Ye Bai nodded and secretly wrote it down, and half an hour later, with the arrival of two strong men and two young people, the people were basically there.

"These two are the two elders of the Xichuan City Scattered Cultivation Organization, these two are still brothers named Qian Yu and Qian Yang, they are still somewhat famous in Xichuan City, and they met when they asked the master to forge spiritual weapons."

With the completion of Wankong's introduction, the banquet also began ceremoniously under the announcement of Feng Xinglie's up.

As the maids put the spiritual food in front of them, Wan Ming exclaimed: "This opening dish is all second-grade spiritual food level, it seems that we have the opportunity to eat the third-grade food king banquet today." ”

Ye Bai was indeed enjoying the food quietly at this time, and the spiritual food was processed by the spirit chefs through complex procedures, retaining the aura of the food itself, and sublimating the food itself with various ingredients to achieve the effect.

His process is more complicated than the pill, and the efficiency is not high, like the second-grade spirit food white jade Linglong Pagoda in front of him, it needs to be made a month in advance, although the speed is slow, but it is better than not having such troubles as erysipelas.

The atmosphere was also very peaceful in front of the food, and Pei Hu's table also tasted the popular Bibo wine as they wished.

The rich aroma of wine spread throughout the audience, causing Ye Bai and the others to squirm for a while, of course, they also knew that this thing was not something they could drink, so they could only covet it.

After three rounds of drinking, Feng Xinglie got up and said, "In addition to inviting everyone to come today, in addition to selecting Renyuan fruit, the most important thing is that the sea festival in Bohai City may start soon." ”

Speaking of this, the faces of the people at the table also darkened.

"It's been almost a hundred years since I thought about it. Alas! Pei Hu sighed.

The rest of the people didn't say anything more, and their faces weren't very good-looking.

"I have already sent someone to inform the Immortal Sect and the Yunyang Sect and other major sects, and I hope to fight the enemy together with you this time." Feng Xinglie arched his hand to a few people.

"That's how it should be."

"Wind City Lord rest assured."

Everyone returned the courtesy, but Ye Bai was indeed confused.

It seemed that seeing Ye Bai's doubts, Wan Ming also talked about some things about the sea festival.

"The sea sacrifice is a tradition once every 100 years for the Bohai people, and they will use the human race to sacrifice their ancestors as a way to obtain protection. But for some reason, this sea festival seems to have been advanced. ”

"This is also because Xichuan City is located near the Bohai Sea, and coastal cities like this will be attacked by large and small raids. Thousands of years ago, when the first sea festival of the Bohai tribe came, the human race suffered heavy losses because they did not pay attention, and although it was adjusted later, many people still died every hundred years. ”

Speaking of this, Wan Ming's eyes became extremely cold, his parents and grandfather both died in the last sea sacrifice.

Ye Bai was also calm, after all, he couldn't do anything with his own strength at the moment, and the most important thing in front of him was to quickly improve his strength.

"When is the sea festival coming?" Granny Yu asked at this time.

"The exact timing is not clear, it is estimated that it will be in two or three years, but we have to prepare in advance." Feng Xinglie said earnestly.

"Okay, things are not as bad as everyone thinks, with the support of the major sects and the royal family, it is no problem to resist the sea festival this time, let's go and pick the human yuan fruit first."

Feng Xinglie looked at everyone's heavy faces, and hurriedly comforted everyone and changed the topic.

Many young people who were brought by the elders were also excited when they heard that they could go and pick the human yuan fruit, after all, although they had heard of such a thing as the sea festival, they had never seen that kind of scene, and they didn't feel it deeply.
