Wine Between the Flowers Chapter 70: The Eve of the Taoist Meeting
As it has been since its inception hundreds of years ago, the days of Breeze Valley have passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, not only did the tail of winter slip away quietly, but even the spring girl disappeared.
It is now the height of summer, and there are many trees and birds and beasts in the valley, and in this vigorous season, they have released all the vitality that they have nowhere to vent, so the sound of birds, cicadas, and beasts in the valley is endless.
I didn't expect that it would be almost half a year after such a pass, and there was only half a month left before the Dao meeting of the Zixia Sect.
Everyone knew about such a grand event, and everyone wanted to participate in it, after all, it was a competition for young talents in the entire East Fuyao Continent, and everyone was eager to get ahead.
However, after several rounds of selection, Qingfeng Valley only selected three people to participate in the final conference, namely Liu Wan'er, Xu Huaigu, and a disciple of Qingfeng Valley, Du Lezhan.
Xu Huaigu has naturally been cultivating in Qingfeng Valley for a period of time, constantly refining the sword pill in his heart lake.
The fact is indeed as Xie Qingyun said, that sword pill has a great help for his cultivation, every trace of sword intent can be swallowed by his lotus seed sword, and then turned into his own cultivation, so his cultivation speed is very fast, and now compared to the last time when he broke through the realm in Xiaoluoxia Peak, he actually broke another realm, and there are already five realms.
However, Liu Wan'er is not bad, she followed Xu Huaigu closely to break through the four realms, and then only practiced for four months, and even broke another realm, which can be said to be the fastest four realms to break the five realms in the history of Qingfeng Valley.
And this is still without the help of the sword pill, which is even stronger than Xu Huaigu, who is a natural sword fetus.
Therefore, the current Liu Wan'er has been accepted as the ancestor of the ancestral hall, alongside An Xiaoyu and another male monk of the Six Realms.
However, everyone knows that with Liu Wan'er's talent, if she continues to break through the realm, she will surpass the other two sooner or later, so everyone agrees that Liu Wan'er is now the first person in the younger generation of Qingfeng Valley.
It's just that correspondingly, Liu Wan'er is becoming more and more lonely and lonely. Without the lively temperament she used to have, she loves to ignore people when she sees them, except for seeing Xu Huaigu or Yu Qin, she can still have a smiling face, and then there are a few low-level disciples who are patrolling the mountains outside, and the rest of the people are almost smiling.
can't say whether it's good or bad, Xu Huaigu is just a little worried, and he can only be a little worried. He has been keeping the safe and sound card that Liu Wan'er gave him, and he believes that this brand can bring him peace, because there is a sense of truth on it.
As for the last one named Du Lezhan, he is a well-known figure in Qingfeng Valley, who is not usually very outstanding, but he stood out in several rounds of selection, so he naturally became the third person to participate in Qingfeng Valley.
After Li Siqing obeyed Xie Qingyun's order and faced the wall for three months, his mind was really calmer, and he no longer thought about things like the ancestral master's descendants or Taoist couples, but quietly began to practice.
During this period, he also had a few drinks with Xu Huaigu, and when he talked about it, Li Siqing had no complaints, but felt that Xie Qingyun had done the right thing, which made Xu Huaigu look at Li Siqing again.
Li Siqing also joked that if he hadn't broken through to the Six Realms in Lichuan Mountain, he might have a share of the Zixia Sect Conference this time.
It's just a pity that he didn't have the opportunity to compete with the outstanding generation of Dongfu Yaozhou. While everyone was gearing up for this Zixia Sect Conference, Xu Huaigu didn't care.
Originally, he was not interested in this kind of conference at all, and he stayed only because Xie Qingyun saved his life and gave himself such a great creation, so it was difficult to refute her.
Since he wants to earn some face for Qingfeng Valley, Xu Huaigu is ready to take a good ranking, not too high, not too low.
Recently, Qingfeng Valley has been very lively, in addition to the reason for this Dao meeting, there are also many sects that have come to visit.
Qingfeng Valley and Zixia Sect are both in the territory of Yamato, and they are not far apart, so many sects will come to visit this sect before going to Zixia Sect, after all, the valley master of Qingfeng Valley is also a monk of the Nine Realms, and it is worth having a good relationship.
Regarding this kind of gossip about the visit of the sect, there is naturally no other place in Qingfeng Valley that is more well-informed than the restaurant, so the business of the restaurant has been very hot recently, and it is often full.
Xu Huaigu made an appointment with Liu Wan'er several times and wanted to go to the restaurant to drink, but there were no seats, so he had to buy wine and drink while walking on the road, a little helpless.
After all, the restaurant is not a place for cultivation, and it only pays attention to first-come, first-served, and will not grab a seat because of whose cultivation is high.
There is no such rule when you come to the restaurant to drink, at least not in this one in Qingfeng Valley. However, with the breeze and bright moon in the mountains as a companion, Xu Huaigu and Liu Wan'er can drink freely, but today's drinking in the restaurant is not a private meeting between the two, but a third person-Du Lezhan.
I found him because the three of them had to go to the Zixia Sect Dao Meeting together on behalf of Qingfeng Valley and get acquainted with him in advance. However, Du Lezhan is more introverted, like a stuffy gourd, not very good at talking, so the wine is not very smooth, after the three of them exchanged a few words of greeting, Du Lezhan also knew that he was not likable, so he said goodbye first, leaving Liu Wan'er and Xu Huaigu to continue drinking.
Xu Huaigu's amount of wine had grown rapidly during this period of time, as fast as his cultivation, and when he first came to Qingfeng Valley, he could only drink two bowls, but now even if a jar of wine was placed in front of him, he could drink it cleanly.
Liu Wan'er doesn't like to smile more than before, and Xu Huaigu has nothing to do about it, after all, growth is inevitable.
Today's restaurant seems to be particularly lively, and many people are enthusiastically discussing the new group of people who have arrived in Qingfeng Valley.
The identity of this group of people is very unusual, which is why it has caused such a heated discussion. Xu Huaigu had already heard the words of the people around him, and said to Liu Wan'er: "They said that the people from the Fuyao Sect also came to Qingfeng Valley, is this news true or false?" Liu Wan'er said: "It's true, the mountain gate that the group entered yesterday was specially summoned by the valley lord today." Xu Huaigu asked curiously: "What is the situation of this group of people, and how is their cultivation?" "As the largest sword sect in Dongfu Yaozhou, and inextricably linked with himself, Xu Huaigu can't help but care.
Liu Wan'er replied: "There are a total of five people here, one of them is the leading elder, it should be the Nine Realms, and the last four are all here to participate in the Zixia Sect Dao Meeting." The leader of the four people is a sword cultivator named Yin Zishi, who is only nineteen years old this year, and it is said that the talent of kendo is extremely high, and it has only been five years since he entered the Fuyao Sect, and he has broken through all the way to the Five Realms, and now he is the cultivation of the peak of the Five Realms, and he is one of the candidates for the championship of this Dao meeting. As for the other three, they are all cultivators of the Five Realms, so the specific situation is not clear. Xu Huaigu nodded solemnly, and took the name Yin Zishi to heart.
Xu Huaigu began to step into the cultivation of the sect at the age of ten in Binxi, and is now sixteen years old. Six years have passed, although he is now also a Five Realms, but he clearly knows that among his five realms, the credit of the Sword Pill is the first, if it weren't for the chance to get this Sword Pill, now there are at most four realms, and this sword cultivation called Yin Zishi only took five years to reach the peak of the Five Realms, and now he is only nineteen years old, which is even stronger than Zuoqiu Xundu in the early twenties of the Five Realms.
As soon as he thought that Yin Zishi might be stronger than Zuo Qiu Xun, he naturally didn't dare to slack off. How many hole cards and means Zuoqiu Xun has, Xu Huaigu knows very well, presumably Yin Zishi will not be less.
It seems that the world's kendo is not only favored by natural sword fetuses, like Yin Zishi or Liu Wan'er, who are not born with sword fetuses, and their cultivation is still no worse than that of natural sword fetuses, there are still many people in the world.
It's just that the extra Heart Lake Flying Sword from the innate sword fetus is their unique advantage.
Xu Huaigu listened to the noisy conversation in his ears, it seemed that many people were not very friendly to the group of people from the Fuyao Sect, saying that the people of the Fuyao Sect were relying on the high-definition wind valley of the sect, so there was no one in their eyes, and they didn't take the disciples of the Qingfeng Valley seriously.
Someone proposed to write to the elders to get rid of this group of people quickly, and immediately got the secondment of the people around them, so the atmosphere of the whole restaurant was restless.
At this moment, five people walked in from outside the restaurant, led by an old man with a white beard, followed by four people, all four of whom were cultivators of the Five Realms, and it was self-evident who came.
Just on the cusp of this storm, the five people of the Fuyao Sect broke into the restaurant, and it was okay, and suddenly the eyes of the entire restaurant were focused on this group of people, which was very unkind.
However, the five people who came seemed to have expected this scene for a long time, and they didn't care, and stood at the door of the restaurant, and one of them walked out, smiled, and said loudly to everyone in the restaurant: "In Xia Ye Leng, from the Fuyao Sect, I have long heard of the name of Qingfeng Valley, and I came to pay a visit." He sneered and said, "However, I heard from a friend that although Qingfeng Valley's swordsmanship is superb, it is overwhelmed by our Fuyao Sect, the reason is that Qingfeng Valley's swordsmanship focuses on skill rather than strength, and it is often beautiful moves but not high in lethality, which is not worthy of its name." After listening to this, I was puzzled, is it so unbearable for our second largest sword sect in Dongfu Shaking Continent to be so unbearable in the mouths of others? So I'm honored to be here in Breeze Valley today, and I hope you will answer my questions and solve problems for me, so that I can see if it is as the man said. ”
"Please advise." As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the Qingfeng Valley Restaurant. Such outrageous remarks, it is clear that he is here to smash the field, the temper of the sword cultivator in Qingfeng Valley is not necessarily good, and for a while, the sound of wine bowls smashing on the table angrily sounded in the restaurant, and everyone looked at him as if they were going to eat him alive.
Ye Leng, who spoke, stayed where he was, looking around the restaurant, and the white-bearded old man who was the leader said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, my senior brother Ye Leng is a sword maniac, and he can't speak. However, since someone dares to question Qingfeng Valley's swordsmanship, I think you should want to prove it more than me, so you might as well fulfill his wish, let my junior brother suffer a little, and let him go back and tell his friend that Qingfeng Valley's swordsmanship is worthy of its reputation. Then he led the other three to the counter, ordered a few jars of wine, and explained, "You can teach him a lesson, but the rest of us just want to taste the wine of Qingfeng Valley, don't care." After that, a few people found a table and sat down, and really poured wine and drank.
Xu Huaigu looked at the white-bearded old man who was fanning the flames, and then his eyes shifted to the other three people beside him, wanting to find out who Yin Zishi was.
However, the three of them seemed to be only interested in drinking, and Xu Huaigu didn't see the difference between the three people, so he didn't know who Yin Zishi was.
Liu Wan'er saw that his eyes were there, so she reminded: "The one in green clothes is Yin Zishi." Xu Huaigu was suddenly, and at this moment, the man in green clothes also looked up, met Xu Huaigu's gaze, and smiled.
Xu Huaigu frowned, always feeling that this person was a little strange with his smile, as if he was hiding something.
