Wine Between the Flowers Chapter 41: The Wine Banquet of Annan

The black-robed man was not as silent as the monk who only cared about chanting Buddha, and as soon as he was introduced by Chen Shaochun at this time, he modestly pushed his hand and said: "Although my cultivation is not high, I also want to contribute to the people of Baihai. With a kind remark, the monks felt that he was approachable and won the favor of many people.

At this time, it is to accept the praise of everyone, many people think that he is a high cultivator, and naturally he wants to have a good time, no matter what, leaving a good impression will only have benefits, not harms.

Only make money and don't lose money, all of you here are smart people, and if you can do it, you will naturally do it. So Mo Rao people also did not refuse, all the monks stood up in turn, toasted him from a distance, he did not put on a stand, but also smiled and saluted one by one, but left a good impression on everyone.

It's just that the monks toasted Xu Huaigu in turn, but Xu Huaigu just stared at Mo Rao fiercely, and he didn't plan to get up.

The eyes of all the monks focused on Xu Huaigu, so the atmosphere on this floor was once again embarrassed because of him.

The eyes of the two intersected, and Xu Huaigu naturally did not retreat. Although I don't know what the black-clothed Taoist priest is involved in this ghost killing operation on Lichuan Mountain, but just based on what he did in Lucheng, he knows that it will definitely not be a good thing, so Xu Huaigu will not give him a good color anyway.

It's just that the black-clothed Taoist priest still looked at Xu Huaigu with a smile, and seeing that Xu Huaigu had no intention of standing up, he actually got up by himself, took a glass of wine, raised it in front of him, and said to Xu Huaigu: "This Taoist friend doesn't seem to be in a good mood?" Also, I'm going to Lichuan Mountain soon, life and death are not yet known, I see that you are still young, and it is always normal to be a little scared in my heart, as an elder, I will give you a glass of wine first, and be brave! With that, Mo Rao raised his head and drank all the wine in his cup.

It's just that Xu Huaigu is still frowning, his eyes are full of disdain, and he doesn't pay any attention to what the black-clothed Taoist priest did.

He was also thinking about what kind of medicine was sold in Mo Rao's gourd, but this look fell into the eyes of other monks who didn't know the grievances between them, and it was Xu Huaigu's naked ridicule.

Mo Rao is a monk of the Six Realms, three realms higher than the sword cultivation of these three realms, as a senior, not only did he not mind that Xu Huaigu did not toast, but toasted him to give him courage, and Xu Huai not only did not appreciate it, but looked at Mo Rao people so hostilely, it was really too much to see.

Many monks couldn't look at it at this time, and their eyes were full of contempt when they glanced at Xu Huaigu. Mo Rao still pretended not to know Xu Huaigu, and didn't seem to mind Xu Huaigu's hostility at all, just holding a wine glass and smiling slightly, giving people a very cordial feeling, which made Xu Huaigu even more disgusted in his heart.

He just wanted to show people with this face, so that everyone could point the finger at Xu Huaigu and make trouble for him before going up the mountain.

Sure enough, the atmosphere among the monks began to be a little wrong, and some people began to whisper about it.

It's just that whispering among a group of monks is simply saying bad things in front of others, after all, everyone is a monk, and no amount of noise can escape their ears.

"This sword cultivation really doesn't know what to do, people give him face like this, he has to find himself unhappy, he is narrow-minded, and it won't be a big deal!"

"Don't talk about people like that, after all, they are sword cultivators with high killing power, so naturally they don't take us people seriously."

"I think his sword case is a bit good, it's not an ordinary sword box, and the sword inside is certainly not a vulgar thing. This person dares to be so rampant in front of the cultivators of the Six Realms, there must be someone behind him to support him, I really don't know which mountain cultivated such a sword cultivator, it's embarrassing! ”

"I don't know if you have heard, that person was just in Baihai yesterday, and he killed someone when he came in, but Chen County Commander did not blame him, and also brought him in, I thought that there must be a secret in this murder, and now it seems that this person is clearly good and bad, and careless of human life!" The monks talked a lot, and naturally they didn't escape Xu Huaigu's ears, but Xu Huaigu's face still did not change, and his eyes were cold.

Public opinion gradually became white-hot, and soon someone took the opportunity to point the finger at the sword cultivator from Xu Huaigu, talking about how arrogant the sword cultivator was, and not taking other monks in his eyes, the scene began to get a little out of control.

Chen Shaochun was very anxious, this was the opportunity he finally found, who would have thought that such a trivial matter as a toast would be brought to such a point.

He couldn't help but think of Xu Huaigu's lion opening his mouth yesterday and the scene of being late today, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart about Xu Huaigu's origins and how much true skills he had, and he began to wonder if he had lost his eyes.

Suddenly, the monks heard it suddenly

With a "bang", everyone's eyes suddenly turned to the place where the sound came from, and there was a man in a flower dress who drew his sword out of the sheath, and the sonorous sound was the neighing of the sword blade brushing the scabbard.

The man in the flower clothes raised his sword and said angrily: "You can talk about him, but don't involve the sword cultivation, otherwise, I will definitely not forgive!" It turned out that the man in the flower clothes was also a sword cultivator in the Five Realms, and he didn't plan to deal with this matter, but everyone's remarks gradually shifted from Xu Huaigu to sword cultivation, and he couldn't bear it, so he had this remark.

Everyone was shocked by the man in the flower clothes, and the man was so high in cultivation that the monks didn't want to make enemies with him, so they stopped talking.

Chen Shaochun just wanted everyone to calm down, and when he saw this opportunity, he hurriedly took the opportunity to say: "I have already introduced the two Six Realms monks in our group, and when we were drinking just now, we must have learned a little about each other, and I won't repeat the rest of them one by one, let's get down to business." Then Chen Shaochun told some information about Li Chuan Mountain, including the strength of the ghosts and the antenna terrain of Li Chuan Mountain.

It turns out that this Lichuan Mountain is a hillside on three sides, and the remaining side is a cliff, and that cliff naturally has no way to climb, so it can only attack from the other three sides.

Halfway up the mountain in the south, there is a dilapidated Taoist temple, known as Huanglong Temple, but the Taoist temple has been abandoned for more than a hundred years, and I don't know what the situation is now, but according to Chen Shaochun's intelligence, most of the ghosts are gathered in the west of Lichuan Mountain, so the Taoist temple is not the focus.

And the west is also the location where the business road passes, so Chen Shaochun plans to send more people in the west, after all, retaking the business road is the real goal of this time, so the bald monk Kuzen Master and the black-clothed Taoist priest were arranged to attack the west, and Xu Huaigu is only three realms, according to the realm, it is very ordinary among the people, so he was assigned to the operation of attacking the south, and the same is true of Huang Shan, and the leader of the person who attacked the south is the man in the flower clothes who used to make the sword before.

In the conversation that followed, the man in the flower dress also made an introduction. He is a sword cultivator of the Five Realms, from Qingfeng Valley, a second-rate sect in Dongfu Shake Continent, his name is Li Siqing, this time he traveled down the mountain to the neighborhood, and was called by Chen Shaochun with a letter of help sent to Qingfeng Valley.

Chen Shaochun was originally born in the army, and he was also a martial artist in the Five Realms, and he also had some friendship with Qingfeng Valley in the past, so Qingfeng Valley sent Li Siqing, who happened to be traveling nearby.

After that, there was another conversation, and after everyone set the general direction, there were their own leaders to discuss detailed plans, and try to let everyone perform their duties and play the best role.

There were a lot of people among them, and there was a difference between a monk sword cultivator and a talisman master, so the specific discussion was quite cumbersome, and it was not until the starry sky was late at night that the strategy was decided.

Everyone decided to take Chen Shaochun as the guide in the west, and there were Kuzen master and black-clothed Taoist Mo Rao as auxiliaries, and the most monks were sent.

In the south, Li Siqing was the leader, and the remaining seven or eight monks from the Third and Fourth Realms followed, and in the north, another monk from the Five Realms was leading, and as for the east side of a towering cliff, no manpower was arranged.

Then it is to choose the right time, there are strange people among the people, one of them is good at divination gossip, after divination, it is said that four days later is the second day of the second month of February, it is the day when the yang energy is vigorous, and the yin energy is lost, and the four days are good for the monks to make some preparations, so the time to go up the mountain is set after four days.

After explaining all the things, it was already late at night, so after Chen Shaochun smiled at everyone, he said some more greetings, and the monks gradually dispersed back.

However, Xu Huaigu was still sitting in his seat and had no intention of leaving. The black-clothed Taoist priest Mo Rao left with the rest of the monks he knew, and when he left, he didn't forget to look back at Xu Huaigu meaningfully, as if he was laughing at Xu Huaigu.

Xu Huaigu and his party hurt him a lot in Lucheng at that time, and now, he is better than Xu Huaigu.

However, seeing Xu Huaigu staying, he could also guess that Xu Huaigu had something to say to Chen Shaochun, most likely because he was in Lucheng.

However, he was not worried at all, and left confidently. After the other monks left, only Xu Huaigu, Huang Shan, Chen Shaochun, and the Kuzen master who had been chanting Buddha for a long time and had never opened his eyes were left.

Huang Shan glanced at Master Kuzen strangely, and felt a little funny, he wondered if this hard-working arrangement of Master Kuzen had listened to it.

However, the Kuzen master just continued to chant the Buddha, and he didn't seem to be interested in anything in the outside world. Chen Shaochun was also generous, seeing that Xu Huaigu didn't leave, and didn't care about Xu Huaigu's behavior today, he walked to him and sat down, poured him a glass of wine, and asked, "Do you have something to say to me?" Xu Huaigu said bluntly: "I have seen that Mo Rao person, he is not a good person. Two days ago, I met him in Lucheng, when he colluded with a female ghost of the Three Realms to kill the entire people of Lucheng, make sacrifices for his own magic weapon, and want to promote the magic weapon to immortal soldiers. Fortunately, I found out and the plan was destroyed by me, so I saved Lucheng. This person is insidious and cunning, fierce and cruel, and he will never participate in the killing of ghosts on the mountain because of the pity of the people, and he must have other purposes in participating. Chen Shaochun asked suspiciously: "Then you said that he sabotaged his actions in Lucheng, but he is a Six Realms monk, even if you are a sword cultivator with high killing power, it is only three realms, plus this Four Realms monk behind you, it should not be his opponent, right?" What happened between you in Deer City? Xu Huaigu was reluctant to say the existence of Zuo Qiu Xun, so he covered it up and said: "If you send someone to Lucheng to inquire about what happened, you will naturally have a conclusion, and as for how I defeated him, I have other ways." I'm just telling you about it, and it's none of my business whether you believe it or not. But if this person caused everyone to lose their lives, I am not responsible. Chen Shaochun frowned and said, "I know, but I can't take your word for it, I will send someone to Lucheng to verify." I'll make up my mind about it, and if it's really as you say, then I'll reconsider it. Xu Huaigu nodded, then got up and said goodbye: "Then this matter is over, I will leave." We'll see you again when we go up the mountain four days later. Chen Shaochun replied with a smile: "Then there is Lao Daoyou's contribution." Xu Huaigu finally smiled at him, returned the salute, and turned around to leave.

Huang Shan also got up and followed, and when he left, he didn't forget to complain: "Lord Chen, your wine is really not very good, and even the wine I ate in the Lucheng Inn can't compare." Chen Shaochun smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything, so Huang Shan also felt bored and left.

It's just that Xu Huaigu was walking to the door, but the bitter Zen master who had been chanting Buddha spoke: "Donor, stay here, I have something to tell you." ”
