The table is full of delicacies, such as red prawns, tender and fresh fish, and verdant seasonal vegetables, which are not only full of color and fragrance, but also full of colorful aura, which makes people salivate.

The food is good, the wine is even better!Su Sha Qingying picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "The elders will set up a big banquet, and we will set up a small banquet, everyone is invited." ”

The spirit wine is turquoise and full of aroma.

Du Ruozhou drank several glasses in a row and groaned: "Good wine, good wine." This wine is full of spiritual power, and a cup of belly is better than half a month of meditation. ”

After that, Chaoyan said: "Senior brother is happy and forgets to return, but is he nostalgic for this thing?"

Yan Ci took a sip of spiritual wine and said with a smile: "Senior brother, don't be jealous, it's also the first time to taste good wine." ”

Du Ruozhou didn't believe it, and said: "Senior brother, don't you drink wine and don't admit it? This is not the hospitality of the Shusha family." ”

Shusha Qingying said with a smile: "This wine is made from picking jade sycamores, and there are less than dozens of jars every year, and I have only tasted it for the second time since I can remember." ”

Du Ruozhou said: "Oh, if it weren't for the birthday congratulations to the head of the Ling family, I wouldn't have a chance to wait." ”

He stretched out his arm and poured a glass for Yan Ciman, shook the wine jug and said with a smile: "Senior brother, hurry up and drink a few more glasses, and I'll leave some for my junior brother." ”

Yu Lu put down the jade chopstick and said with a smile: "What a drunkard, look at what you said." People who cultivate the truth are accustomed to Bigu, and it is better to taste this delicacy at a glance. ”

Su Sha Qingying said with a smile: "It's okay to try it once in a while, the head of the family can't just drink some spiritual wine and eat some spiritual fruits when he sets up a banquet." ”

Du Ruozhou didn't have time to deal with the two of them, and together with Liao, they only cared about eating and drinking, and the rest of the people looked at each other and were secretly funny.

Yu Lu said suddenly: "The junior brother has been stranded for a few days, and I am afraid that a reprimand will be inevitable after returning to the garden." ”

Yan Ci hurriedly asked the reason, and Yu Lu said: "Li Yedi is looking for his junior brother all over the place, and Uncle Qingming is a little displeased. ”

Yan Ciqi said: "The family teacher is out of the customs?"

Yu Lu said: "Exactly, Uncle Qing Ming has advanced to the third Great Cultivator of the Void Netherworld Period of this Yuan. ”

Yan Ci was overjoyed, and when he saw that Su Sha Qingying was deaf, he couldn't help but sneer, secretly thinking that this girl already knew, no wonder Su Sha Qiu was so polite to herself, she wanted to hug her thighs, hum, they were really a good show.

Du Ruozhou pushed the cup to change the lamp and drank freely, Yu Lu frowned and said, "Senior brother, beware of the blame of Lord Wanfeng." ”

Du Ruozhou said: "Hehe, Qingying said that the infant monks all live on the top of the high cliff in the north and will not come here. ”

Yu Lu suddenly said: "Oh, no wonder the junior brother is so profligate!"

The feast lasted until the end of the day, and Shusha Qingying arranged a room for the rest of the people before leaving happily.

In the exquisitely decorated living room, the air is filled with a fresh smell, and at the antique low table, Xiao Ninglu leaned out of her slender sleeves to make tea.

The boiling water is poured over the tender green tea buds, the petals are as light and floating as jade, and the tea fragrance in the cup comes to the nose, sip slightly, and leave a fragrance on the teeth and cheeks.

Wan Lifeng sighed: "Holding a cup of Lingyin incense in your hand, you will forget about fame and fortune." ”

Huaxi said: "The entrance of this tea is slightly bitter, as if it was the youth of the world when it first set foot in the world, but the bitterness of the heart is sweet, and the mellow and strong fragrance linger between the teeth for a long time." After several ups and downs, the taste is light, fragrant and lonely, and the taster's heart is as simple as Jane. ”

Xie Bo'an smacked his tongue and said: "The old man doesn't know this truth, but the abundant spiritual power contained in it is quite helpful for people who cultivate the truth." ”

Xiao Ninglu said happily: "Qianjin Yi learned that the sound is difficult to find, and the concubine and the fairy miss it!"

Xie Boan said unhappily: "I have known my wife for a hundred years, isn't it as good as this little girl who knows a little about the tea ceremony?"

Liu Ruoxi said with a smile: "As the saying goes, the white head is as new, and the cover is the same, and Xie Lao doesn't have to worry about himself." ”

Xiao Ninglu also smiled and said: "Lingyin incense is a rare thing in Zhaoyao Mountain, Xie Lao is afraid that there are two or three out of ten of those who drink it, but he even regrets the false praise, and now he dares to ask about the crime?"

Xie Bo'an was stunned and said: "Hehe, in fact, the old man also admires it in his heart, but two or three out of ten is a little exaggerated. ”

Xiao Ninglu blinked and said, "There is always one or two of them, right?"

Xie Bo'an said with a smile: "It doesn't hurt for the old man to have a false name, and the lady will have to come up with this number after the birthday banquet." ”

Xiao Ninglu shook his head and said, "There was only a lion who opened his mouth yesterday, why did Xie Lao also come to fight the autumn wind?"

Liu Ruoxi pondered: "The Illusory Night Palace Lichen Daoist is also a tea ceremony, could it be this person?"

Xiao Ninglu said: "Exactly." ”

Wan Lifeng said: "I heard earlier that Li Chen and his wife are clan relatives, but is there such a thing?"

Xiao Ninglu said: "The common family of Lichen is also surnamed Xiao, and he is still a concubine and uncle on the genealogy. ”

Xie Bo'an quipped: "Uncle Ling came from afar, and Mrs. can't be stingy." ”

Xiao Ninglu sighed: "For this uninvited guest, the concubine really wants to be stingy." ”

Wan Lifeng was surprised and said, "What do you say about Madame?"

Xiao Ninglu said: "The Susha family has no contact with the Phantom Night Palace, and the Phantom Night Palace is not among the invitations to the husband's birthday. ”

Qunxiu was stunned, and Liu Ruoxi said: "Madame came to accompany her in her busy schedule, so you might as well say it directly." ”

Xiao Ning said with a bow: "Lord Liufeng's eyes are like torches, in addition to the Phantom Night Palace, Cheyu Island is also uninvited, this matter has been bothering my husband and wife for several days, so the concubine has come to solve it." ”

Liu Ruoxi understood the reason, and said in a condensed voice: "In the past year, this sect has killed several disciples of the Phantom Night Palace who were close to prying eyes. Although the two major factions may not tear their faces overnight, they did not expect that Li Chen would take the opportunity of congratulating his birthday to come to the test. ”

Xiao Ninglu was a little surprised and said: "The reason for this, Huang Fuyong once mentioned it slightly, saying that it was suspected that someone was carrying a strange treasure and worshiped under the gate of Tongchen Garden, and this treasure was suspected of causing chaos in the cultivation realm, and Li Chen sent people to spy on it as a last resort." ”

Wan Lifeng sneered: "I thought that Huang Fuyong was a humble gentleman, but now it seems that he is just a brazen person. ”

Liu Ruoxi said: "The four great families have lived in seclusion for a long time, and their status is similar to that of various sects, how can the Huangfu clan be willing to be vassals?"

Xiao Ninglu sighed: "The family originally shared weal and woe, but now the Huangfu clan has ulterior motives, and the Ji clan has also been desperate to serve the Great Wilderness Ruins. ”

Liu Ruoxi said: "The wind and rain are coming, and the neutrality of Shusha and Murong will be broken, so your mansion should make plans as soon as possible." ”

Xiao Ninglu smiled bitterly and said, "Although Fujun and Murong Houde have ambiguous attitudes, there are quite a few cultivators from the children of the family who worship Tongchen Yuan and Cheyu Island, and I am afraid that other forces have already lined up with us." ”

Liu Ruoxi said: "Even so, there is a difference between active and passive. ”

Xiao Ninglu was entangled in her heart for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Please allow this matter to be discussed again, but I don't know what happened to Cheyu Island?"

Wan Lifeng said: "How many people came to congratulate?"

Xiao Ninglu said: "It's Qiu Wulang, Elder Qin Wuya, and two accompanying disciples. ”

Wan Lifeng said: "Che Yu Island must have no malicious intentions, you can know it when you see it tomorrow, Madame doesn't have to worry." ”

Liu Ruoxi meditated for a while, and suddenly asked, "I don't know if anyone from the Great Wilderness Ruins and the Ji Clan is coming?"

Xiao Ninglu said: "Only Ji Pan appeared, and there was no one in the Great Wilderness Ruins. ”

Liu Ruoxi said: "Since Fu Liuyun took charge of the sect, the Great Wilderness Ruins has ignored the peace doctrine of the Fu Ling Agreement and wants to openly become enemies of the cultivation realm. ”

Xiao Ninglu said: "Lord Liu Feng thinks that the Great Desolate Ruins will invade this place. ”

Liu Ruoxi said: "With this possibility, the two demon leaders of Fu and Yang are empty, and we have to guard against it." ”

Xiao Ninglu said: "Although the gate of the array is open during the birthday banquet, there are many powerful people here, how can the Great Desolate Ruins have no worries?"

Liu Ruoxi said: "The Great Wilderness Ruins and the Phantom Night Palace continue to send people to spy on the forbidden land, I guess that they have a secret secret connection in private, if the Great Wilderness Ruins really have internal thieves here, how can we deal with it?"

Shocked, Xie Bo'an's eyelids jumped a few times and said: "The Phantom Night Palace is the right way after all, how dare you collude with the Great Desolate Ruins, the enemy of Xiuzhen?"

Liu Ruoxi said: "There are no absolutes, I just hope that the guess is wrong." ”

Wan Lifeng said: "No matter what, it's always right for us to be prepared accordingly." ”

Xiao Ninglu said: "The matter is big, the concubine will go to discuss with her husband, you can rest in peace tonight, if there is really something tomorrow, I hope you can help." ”

Wanlifeng said: "This garden and your mansion are in the same boat, and you should serve if you have something." ”

Xiao Ninglu said a thousand blessings and left in a hurry, Xie Bo'an said: "Is there an exaggeration in the words of the senior sister?"

Liu Ruoxi said: "It's just the worst plan, the little sister is restless after coming here, and I'm afraid that everything will not go well." ”

Wan Lifeng said: "For my brother, I will summon the garden master to report this matter." ”

Huaxi interjected: "Tomorrow is the birthday of Qiuhong Daoyou, even if the garden owner comes, it will be too late, senior sister is the think tank in the garden, can there be a good plan?"

Liu Ruoxi shook his head and said: "This situation is beyond my expectations, and I can only act tomorrow." ”

Seeing that everyone was worried, Liu Ruoxi smiled and said: "Everyone, the heritage of the Shusha family is more than what can be seen on the surface, if people can come and go here, I am afraid that the Shusha family no longer exists." ”

Everyone was a little pale, and when they saw that it was late at night, they went back to their rooms to rest.

The high cliff in the north is called the island of Wune, shrouded in light for many years, only a chain bridge made of fine iron enters, and its beautiful name is "the ladder of turning clouds".

A steady stream of guests passed through the dense forest, and a majestic chain bridge rose from the ground and reached into the sky.

Nearly 100 iron cables lead to the top of the cliff from the depths of the ground, and there are copper rings between the iron ropes, and the bridge is embedded with tough rosewood, and the flowers and vines on both sides are entangled.

The ladder is as safe as a rock, and stepping on it is like walking on the ground.

At the end of the ladder is an iron forest, with more than 100 iron trees in different postures, acting as rivets to firmly imprison the iron rope on the edge of the cliff.

Passing through the iron forest, the clear waves of the green lake are smooth, and the fish compete for food and turn up the blue waves, which contrast with the winding corridor.

Behind the archway of carving "purple gas comes from the east" is a wide courtyard, and the palace in the courtyard is lined up, and the grass and trees are verdant.

A pillar and a threshold are graceful and luxurious, and a branch and a leaf are pure and clean.

The small bridge and flowing water pottery are adaptable, and the strange stones of the secluded path are far away.

In the depths of the courtyard, the weaving black hall stands majestically, embroidered and carved, exhausts the glow, the four corners of the palace stand upright, as if spreading its wings and want to fly, its side Qiong floor surrounds, flying pavilion Liudan.

When the auspicious time came, the bell chime sounded, and the ceremonial officer invited the guests into the hall.

The interior of the Weaving Wu Hall is luxuriously decorated and extremely spacious, and more than 100 guests still look empty in it.

The long table was covered with a red cloth, and there was only one kind of spirit fruit on the plate: the spirit peach.

The spirit peach is emerald green, filled with green smoke, and is not a mundane thing.

On both sides of the hall, dozens of men and women in brocade clothes and jade clothes just sat down, with a deep and sharp aura, all of them were infantile monks.

The crowd was silent, not daring to raise their voices.

Shusha Qiuhong's eyes were warm, and he sat alone in the depths of the hall in a beautiful robe, and the word "Shou" inlaid on the painting screen behind him was suddenly dropped out with a pearl the size of a dragon's eye.
