Chapter 39: The Plum Hunting Banquet
To see is to see, and there is no other meaning.
Murong Xue understood what he meant, but she didn't fully believe it, she gently pressed the strings with both hands, and looked at him sideways, revealing an inquiry.
Li Xiu thought for a while and said, "There is some cause and effect between me and Wanxiang City, so I plan to come and repay the cause and effect." ”
Murong Xue frowned: "So you plan to use the sword trial conference as a stepping stone?"
Li Xiu nodded, and did not deny it, he mentioned this matter many times, but each time he faced a different person.
"I plan to visit the Qing Palace on the mountain after I see you. ”
Whether it is for any sect, worshipping the mountain is a very disrespectful thing, just like when the academy opened the sea of books, when people from Huangzhou wanted to step on Tang Guotian to become famous, it was as disgusting.
But worshipping the mountain is also the fastest way to become famous, and it is also a way to offend people.
After worshipping the mountain, no matter whether you win or lose, basically the relationship between you and this force will be cold, and there will even be resentment, so worshipping the mountain is not a trivial matter.
Murong Xue knew him very well, so after hearing this, he understood what he was going to do, so he sneered slightly: "Just like when it hung upside down, it's just that there are hundreds of thousands of people participating in the sword trial conference this time, can you still fight one after another?"
Li Xiu looked at her and said lightly: "There are many people who participate in the sword test conference, but there are not many first-class forces. ”
Wanxiang City is one of the five major factions, and the Warden Shenlong does not see the head but the end, and there are many monks who may not be able to meet the Warden in their lifetime.
Sanqi Cliff is a group of Confucian students, and Wuliang Temple is a group of monks.
Tiance is not a director.
Wanxiang City is one of the most prestigious forces in the Wasteland.
The sword trial conference he held was enough to make all the first-class forces flock to it, not to mention the opportunity to bear the snow in Cangshan.
There are not many first-class forces, only more than 300, and although it is a waste of time to fight them one by one, it is not difficult.
This is what Li Xiu meant.
The mockery on Murong Xue's face gradually disappeared, this was arrogant and frightening, but she knew that this was the truth, Li Xiu really dared to do this, and she could do it.
"And when are you going to start?"
There are still about nine months before the sword test conference, which is neither long nor short, but if you want to fight from house to house, it must be something that cannot be done.
"Ten days later. ”
Li Xiu replied.
Murong Xue asked, "Are you going to do it at the Plum Hunting Banquet?"
The plum banquet is a grand event in the Shangqing Palace, and if Li Xiu makes a fuss about it, the consequences will be more serious than worshipping the mountain.
"I didn't talk about doing anything, I just wanted to make a bet with them. ”
He didn't say much, and Murong Xue didn't ask much, but continued: "The Xunmei Banquet has invited a total of forty-six leaders of the younger generation of first-class forces around, even if you defeat them, what about the rest of the forces?"
This naturally refers to other families or sects among the more than three hundred first-class forces.
The first-class forces are also divided into upper, middle and lower, similar to the Shangqing Palace, even if you look at the entire continent, it is also the top.
Similar to the Ye family's comparison in the barren state, it is medium, and there has been a Ye Xiu in recent years, which can barely be regarded as middle and upper-class.
The rest of the strength is all over the wasteland, and some are even farther away than Tiance, so it is naturally impossible to find them one by one.
Li Xiu explained, "I will arrive in Wanxiang City two months early, when almost all the first-class forces will gather together, so it will be much simpler. ”
Murong Xue stopped talking, just like when she was in the Tang Kingdom, no matter how incredible things she had to do, His Royal Highness the Prince in front of him would think about everything in the future in an instant.
All that remained in the palace was the sound of Fat Bear chewing pills and spirit stones.
"Your piano is not an ornament. ”
Li Xiu glanced at the xylophone in front of her, it was not the one he broke in the academy, but it looked better than that.
Murong Xue's hand pressing on the string was lightly forced, and the xylophone made a clanging sound.
"What do you want to hear?"
Li Xiu thought for a while and said, "Hundred battle clothes." ”
Murong Xue didn't speak, but the faint sound of the piano sounded in the palace, echoing around her ears.
Li Xiu stood in place and listened to it for a while, and thought it was very good, the Hundred Battle Suit is an extremely difficult song, which is usually used to improve morale when the border soldiers are fighting on the battlefield, and it will also be used as a triumphant repertoire on specific occasions.
This piece is difficult to play, and the most important thing is to play it with a murderous and violent atmosphere, mixed with sorrow, remembrance and joy.
These are very complex techniques.
Many people can play the suit, but few people can play the suit well, especially the woman who rarely plays the battlefield.
But Murong Xue played just right.
Li Xiu listened for a moment and only felt two bad and slightly bad places, which was already extremely good.
He took out a chair and put it on the ground, then lay down.
The sunlight shone in through the window, and the two of them were far away from the window, so naturally the sunlight did not fall on them, but only shone on the ground, making the hall brighter and softer.
The hundred battle clothes kept ringing, and the piano was halfway through, and it had not stopped, and it was high.
Li Xiu leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, the sun always makes people tired.
Fat Xiong ate all the pills and spirit stones in the corner, burped and shook his fat flesh and jumped onto Li Xiu's belly, lying on his back with his feet facing the sky, and swearing in his heart that he would never be greedy next time.
When the battle suit came to an end, with the last excitement and joy and the melancholy that remained on the tail tip completely stopped.
Li Xiu had already slept soundly.
Murong Xue gently pushed the xylophone away, and sat there curled up with her arms on her knees, staring at Li Xiu fixedly, not knowing what she was thinking.
The plum feast is a feast.
Since it was held in the Shangqing Palace, and it was on the eve of the sword test in Wanxiang City, the descendants of the forty-six first-class forces and the accompanying monks who came to participate after the banquet would set off for Wanxiang City with the Shangqing Palace.
Therefore, the plum banquet is also used as an appetizer before the sword trial, and it is a large appetizer.
There were a lot of people in Yunlu City during this time, and countless monks were pouring into it, even if they couldn't participate, it would be a great thing to be able to see it with their own eyes and experience this grand event in person.
A total of 46 first-class forces came to participate, but more than 200 people received invitations.
These include some second-rate Heavenly Sons and some loose cultivators, as well as the top 100 monks on the Canglan List.
The gate of Shangqing Palace was wide open, and the city of Yunlu was full of people.
Everyone is looking forward to being able to make a splash at the plum hunting banquet, and no matter how bad it is, let the plum tree bloom a few plum blossoms, so that it can be regarded as passable.
Time is just waiting for it, and ten days have passed with just a snap of a finger and a blink of an eye.
Yunlu City was shocked at this moment, and then everyone in the city could see a huge projection appear directly above the Shangqing Palace in the center of the city, and the luxurious and magnificent, countless top-level cultivation resources were placed in front of the table, and there were figures flickering in it, and gradually more and more people appeared in the projection.
It was a courtyard with a plum tree planted in the courtyard, a bare plum tree with only plum branches.
Countless people's expressions suddenly became solemn, and they couldn't take their eyes off the sky.
That is the projection of the Plum Hunt Feast, and the people who appear in it are the people who participate in the Plum Hunt Feast.
The grand event of the Shangqing Palace, which has been eagerly awaited by countless people for a long time, officially began at this moment.
But Li Xiu was still lying in Murong Xue's palace, sleeping deeply.
