Wine Between Flowers Chapter 40: If it is an enemy, the road is wide
At noon the next day, the sky was bright, and a bright sun swayed down, and the warm sun shone on this land, illuminating the white sea and snow, like a jewel in the mountains, very dazzling.
This is the second day that Xu Huaigu and his party came to Baihai, and this small silk shop could not accommodate so many people, but fortunately, Xu Huaigu and the others are all monks, so it doesn't matter if they don't sleep.
So one night, the three monks sat in the shop and practiced, Yu Qin, Feng Damiang and Yi Yun squeezed in the shop and fell asleep a little, and the long night also passed like this.
When Xu Huaigu was the first to open his eyes and wake up from his practice, Yi Yun, who was already waiting on the side, hurriedly brought a cup of hot tea, helped blow it, and told him, "I saw that you were practicing before, so I didn't come to bother. In fact, early this morning, Chen Shaochun came to inform us, saying that he would let you meet at Annan Building at noon, and asked me to remind you to go over. Xu Huaigu took the tea, drank it all, and then handed the teacup back to Yi Yun, then covered his eyes with his hand, squinted at the sun outside, and said, "Noon? Look at this hour, it's almost there, and we have to leave immediately. Xu Huaigu softly reminded Zuo Qiu Xun and Huang Shan in Xinhu words, woke them up from their cultivation, and asked, "Are you going to the banquet?" Zuo Qiu Xun shook his head and said, "Huang Shan will follow you, and I won't go." You are a Three Realms Sword Cultivator, if you go alone, most of you will be looked down upon, Huang Shan is just right to follow you. Xu Huaigu asked suspiciously: "Then why don't you go, wouldn't our side be stronger if you go?" Zuo Qiu Xun smiled and said: "On this occasion, it is said that it is a gathering to discuss countermeasures, but in fact, it is basically to ask all parties to report to their families and say how many catties and taels they have in their cultivation." Only when you know the cultivation of everyone inside can you develop a suitable strategy. Huang Shan's visit is to save face for you, and I don't go to hide the strength of our side in case of unforeseen disasters. Xu Huaigu suddenly said, "I see, you are still thoughtful." In this way, the matter is very appropriate. If they can really defeat the ghosts of Lichuan Mountain, you don't need to use your sword, so as not to attract those people from the Tianhe Sect. Zuo Qiuxun nodded and said, "That's right, there are some things, and if you have experienced more, you will naturally see it clearly." Xu Huaigu asked Huang Shandao: "Do you have any opinions?" Huang Shan smiled, naturally continued to pat Zuoqiu Xun's ass, and said: "Zuoqiu Sword Immortal's idea is naturally seamless, I, Huang Shan, am a rough person, just do things." Zuo Qiu Xun smiled helplessly: "A wild cultivation pattern has been carved into the bones, and it can't be changed." Huang Shan said cheekily: "What's wrong with this, you have to change it?" Zuo Qiu Xun nodded slightly and praised: "Live thoroughly, yes, don't change." Huang Shan smiled and said, "Thank you Zuoqiu Sword Immortal for your compliment." Xu Huaigu picked up the sword box and said to Huang Shan: "Then that's over, let's go." Zuo Qiu Xun whispered, "Wait, I have something for you." Xu Huaigu and Huang Shan both looked at Zuo Qiuxun curiously, only to see Zuo Qiuxun take out a delicate small fan from a package beside him, and casually throw it to Huang Shan, saying, "Remember this, right?" Huang Shan caught it with one hand, and without looking at it, he quickly put it away, and said with a smile: "Of course I remember, isn't this a magic weapon of the Huashan we met on Hangshun Mountain?" Xu Huaigu thought about it carefully before he remembered this magic weapon fan.
At that time, when he was fighting with Huashan, this fan that could fan flames also made him suffer a lot.
After Hua Shan was killed, the treasure on this body naturally fell into the hands of Zuo Qiu Xun. Huang Shan could see the origin of the fan at a glance, but Xu Huaigu only remembered it after Huang Shan said the origin of the fan, which can be seen in people's hearts.
Zuo Qiu Xun glanced at what Huang Shan was thinking, and said with a smile: "It's not a short time to think about this thing, right?" Huang Shan didn't shirk either, and said generously: "Exactly, last time, in order to save Yu Qin, my magic weapon umbrella was destroyed, and it was indeed a big injury." Our Ye Xiu's net worth is all based on our lives, and if we lack a magic weapon on our bodies, we have no sense of security. Zuoqiu Sword Immortal, you have a high realm and a higher vision anyway, and there is no shortage of this magic weapon, wouldn't it be more appropriate to give it to me? "What Huang Shan said is indeed good, even the immortal soldiers who are extremely rare in the monks of the Six Realms, Zuoqiu Xun has two.
In addition to the natal flying sword, there is also the white jade seal that she got from killing Hua Shan last time, she has been trying to refine the seal for a while, but the immortal soldiers are extremely unruly, and they still can't be refined for a while.
However, it was only a matter of time before this immortal soldier started, and Zuoqiu Xun didn't value the magic weapon fan too much, and it was not bad to give Huang Shan a favor.
Xu Huaigu said with a smile: "Then start with this high-grade magic weapon, Huang Shan, you can gain a lot, presumably the combat power will be even higher, this time you can just go up the mountain to try this magic weapon." Huang Shan nodded yes, and then Xu Huaigu took Huang Shan out of this silk shop, ready to go to Annan Building for a banquet.
Just as she was about to go out, Aunt Feng suddenly ran out of the shop and fell to her knees.
Her face was haggard, the tears in the corners of her eyes had not yet dried, and she was even more pitiful when she knelt on the ground at this time, she looked at Xu Huaigu and pleaded: "My husband's life depends on you Immortal Elder, please be merciful and save him!" Xu Huaigu sighed and said solemnly: "Don't worry, we will naturally do our best." With that, he strode out of the shop and hurried to Annan Building.
…… Annan Tower is a famous building in Baihai City, and it is also the tallest building, which is nine stories high. As far as a restaurant is concerned, there are only a few such tall buildings in a big city like Xingqing City, but why can there be one in this small place?
It turns out that this Annan Building is not a restaurant, but a building similar to a watchtower, which was originally built to overlook the White Sea and use it for viewing.
It's just that Chen Shaochun wants to entertain monks from all walks of life today, and the specifications of the restaurant naturally can't be low, so he requisitioned the highest floor of this Annan Building as a banquet place.
This Annan Building is also a strange building. From the top of the building, this vast ocean of lakes is still invisible, like a large patch of snow lying in the middle of the mountains.
The lake in the distance is shrouded in clouds and mist, and the lake and sky are the same color, like a fairyland. On a sunny day, the line of sight is high, and the people who climb the stairs are not open-minded.
When it rains, the clouds and mist are approaching, fluttering as if in a sea of clouds, as if to fly into a fairy, it is really an excellent place to watch the scenery.
And today, Baihaicheng County ordered Chen Shaochun to hold a banquet on this high-rise building, banqueting monks from all over the world, and eradicating the ghosts of Lichuan Mountain in total.
At this time, it was already past noon, and the ninth floor of Annan Building was already full of guests, and there were only a few inconspicuous positions left vacant between the crowds, waiting for Xu Huaigu and others to come.
A tall bald monk sat beside Chen Shaochun, wearing a half-side golden and red robe, holding a string of Bodhi Buddha beads in his hand, while twisting the Buddha beads, chanting words in his mouth, and not speaking to the surrounding monks, naturally did not drink wine and eat meat, which was very conspicuous among this group of monks.
At this time, everyone was already a little impatient, so one of them said to Chen Shaochun: "Chen County Order, now the appointed time has passed, everyone has drunk and passed the half-round, and if you don't talk about business, I'm afraid everyone will get drunk!" Chen Shaochun looked at the empty seat, smiled and comforted: "You are all monks with heads and faces nearby, it's not me Chen Shaochun said, drinking these mortal wines, I'm afraid that even if you give you ten jars, you won't be able to get drunk, why bother to make fun of me about this?" Everyone, please wait a little longer, there is still one guest who has not come. The man shook his head, poured another glass of sullen wine, and drank it.
Chen Shaochun frowned, he told Xu Huaigu yesterday that he would invite them to sell at the price of thirty big beads, and he already looked up to them very much.
According to the prices of other monks here, a Three Realm monk was only worth five big beads, and a Four Realm monk was only ten big beads, and Xu Huaigu actually asked for fifty at that time, which made him startled and couldn't help but admire this young man's courage even more.
Besides, he was able to make that one of the Four Realms cultivators obey him, and the two women who followed him also had good temperament and demeanor, so he must have some real skills, so he made an exception and spent a lot of money to invite him to come.
It's just that at this time, all the guests of the banquet have arrived, and there are many high-ranking monks, so it is indeed a bit inappropriate to let so many people wait for him.
Among the monks gathered by Chen Shaochun this time, there were two monks from the Six Realms, one was the bald monk sitting beside him, and the other was a black-robed Taoist priest, but he didn't know the origin, but he also had the Six Realms for cultivation, which was a big help, and he found the door himself, so Chen Shaochun asked him to join in.
And among the people sitting in the scattered seats below, there were more monks from the four and five realms, and this time Chen Shaochun really spent a lot of effort and made up his mind to eradicate the evil ghosts of this Lichuan Mountain.
While he was thinking, someone finally knocked on the door again, and when he looked up, it was the swordsman with the sword box on his back yesterday and the Four Realms monk behind him.
Chen Shaochun smiled slightly and greeted warmly, but the lively atmosphere on this floor was broken by the arrival of the two, and it suddenly quieted down.
Xu Huaigu became the focus of everyone's attention, but he didn't care, he still walked in steadily, and greeted him in front of Chen Shaochun, and Chen Shaochun also arranged a seat for the two of them to sit down.
As soon as Xu Huaigu took his seat, someone found him. One of the Five Realms cultivators, Xu was not used to Xu Huaigu's arrogant behavior, stood up, and said in a strange manner: "Who did I say, let Chen County Ling and our group of people wait, it turned out to be the sword cultivator whose eyes were above the top, and it was really extraordinary." Speaking of which, young man, have you ever killed a ghost? Don't go up to the mountain and see the ghost when the time comes, you can't pull out the sword in the sword box, but you will lose face. Everyone just laughed, Huang Shan was a little blind, and was about to refute it, but was stopped by Xu Huaigu, he glared at the man and said, "What's the matter with you." The man ridiculed Xu Huaigu's goal had been achieved, and at this time, he didn't care whether Xu Huaigu had the final say, just shook his head with a smile and continued to drink.
This turmoil subsided, and Chen Shaochun saw that everyone had already arrived and was about to talk about some serious things, so he cleared his throat and said loudly: "Everyone! For a while, everyone put down their wine glasses and became quiet, ready to listen to Chen Shaochun's speech, and it can be seen that Chen Shaochun's status in the hearts of everyone is still not low.
"Lichuan Mountain is rampant with ghosts, killing people and goods, and doing all kinds of evil, for several months. This group of ghosts is extremely vicious, and their cultivation is very high, so this time Baihai encountered such a big crisis, I, Chen, as the county commander of this place, should stand up. All of you here, whether I paid for it, or wanted to kill ghosts and support justice out of morality, when we got here, we were all a team. According to reliable information, the ghost king of Lichuan Mountain has at least six realms of cultivation, and it is not yet known whether there are seven realms, so the difficulty of this operation can be imagined. But don't be discouraged, we also have Six Realms Monks! Chen Shaochun smiled heartily, stretched out his finger and pointed to the monk who was wearing a golden and red robe on his side and was dedicated to reciting Buddha, and said: "This is the bitter Zen master of White Horse Mountain in Middle Earth, that is, the cultivation of the Six Realms, and the Buddhist scriptures he has learned are specially designed to suppress and kill powerful ghosts." Everyone applauded together, bowed to the monk, Xu Huaigu also took a look, the monk did have some ability, in the midst of everyone, still in a clear state of mind, only care about chanting the Buddha, and did not say a word.
Chen Shaochun waved his hand again, pointed at another person and said, "And the Mo Rao Mo Cultivator on my right is also a Six Realms Wild Cultivator, he will also help us!" Xu Huaigu also looked at the strangely named Brother Mo, but he was startled, and suddenly the wine glass almost fell.
Huang Shan hurriedly patted him and said, "What's wrong with you?" Xu Huaigu didn't speak, and pointed to Brother Mo who was proudly accepting everyone's praise, and Huang Shan was also stunned.
Because the black-clothed monk named Mo Rao was clearly the one they met in Lucheng who colluded with the female ghost!
