Chapter Ninety-Four: Pull It All Away
In the private room of the restaurant, Sun Xiaoman said with indignation on his face: "Senior brother, this time we were dragged down by this hateful guy Ying Wuxin, you hurry up and stop him, lest we have no face to see people in the future." β
Li Zhengdao held a fruit knife in his hand, carefully picked up the plums on the plate one by one, and perfectly divided and planed them apart, leaving only the kernels, and his movements were very skillful and neat.
"I believe in Brother Heartless, you wait and see. Li Zhengdao smiled and lifted half a piece of plum pulp, "Senior sister?"
Facing Li Zhengdao's gentle smile, even if Sun Xiaoman was very annoyed, he couldn't refuse, took the plum, put it in his mouth, and bit it hard, still full of anger.
Bai Miaozhen watched from the side, her beautiful peach blossom eyes blinked, remembered something, and smiled.
On the street outside the restaurant, the crowd was noisy and became chaotic.
"Old Liu's carriage is here. I don't know who shouted, and everyone looked into the distance of the street, and the crowd gradually dispersed, and a brand new carriage slowly drove by.
"There's more to come!"
Soon after the first carriage appeared, the second and the third appeared, and drove slowly towards the theater, only about a hundred meters apart, as if to negotiate, and after a while the fourth and fifth cars turned from another street.
The people waiting on both sides of the street cheered and were happy as if they were celebrating the New Year, and the picture of everyone in the literary circles of the five countries appearing together was enough for them to brag about for a lifetime.
In the past, there were also writers from the Five Kingdoms who came to Taoxi together, but they only admired the scripts in their residences, and they would leave before the game when they were finished, and they had never gathered together like today.
In the theater, Lin Wenzhao said with a smile: "Let's go, go out to greet the five elders." β
"Yes. The servants agreed, and followed.
At the entrance of the theater, Zhou Qian and a group of servants occupied the best position in the line of sight, waiting quietly with a cold smile on his face.
"Mr. Liu Yuanlao has arrived. At the entrance of the theater, Zhang Zhi, the housekeeper of the Lin family, greeted with a smile.
The carriage stopped, and the coachman went to the back with the stool, and when it was ready, he reached for the door.
In the alley, Wang Banxian held a lit torch and shone it on the bronze mirror placed on the wooden shelf on the side.
On the smooth mirror surface of yellow, orange and orange, a blue ocean appeared, and the white giant ship, a huge white cylinder sprayed with flames, rushed into the sky at a high speed.
Under the reflection of the torches, the bronze mirror reflected a ray of light, which went straight past the people next to the carriage and landed on the door of the carriage parked in front of the theater.
At this time, the driver just opened the door, and the light reflected by the copper mirror passed through the door and fell on the carriage inside.
Liu Yuan, who was in his sixties, with gray and sparse hair and an old face, had just opened his eyes and withdrawn from the state of closing his eyes and recuperating his mind, and saw a scene on the carriage.
The blue ocean, the white ships, the huge white pillars sprayed with flames, soared into the sky.
"What is this?"
Liu Yuan was stunned for an instant, thinking it was a sneak attack, but he didn't feel anything, the old man blinked, and looked at the picture again, his eyes couldn't help but widen, and his hands began to tremble.
"A miracle, this must be a miracleβ" The old man trembled with excitement, and his mouth kept muttering.
"Who dares to be disrespectful to Mr. Liu?" At the entrance of the theater, Zhang Zhi, the housekeeper of the Lin family, shouted loudly, and in the theater, among the surrounding crowds, there were figures flashing in the building.
Lin Wenzhao smiled and raised his hand, stepped forward, and said to everyone: "Don't panic, everyone, there is no malicious intent in coming." β
"Young Master, do you know who did it?" Zhang Zhi said curiously.
The onlookers also looked curiously, and the noisy streets fell silent.
"Naturally, I know, tonight I want to invite the five literary circles of the five countries to read their own scripts, except for the friend of Li Zhengdao, the chief disciple of Zhengyang Daomen, who else can there be?"
"Nameless Xiaoxiao, dare to come and make trouble, come here, take it for me. Zhang Zhi shouted, and the Lin family members who appeared around him flashed one by one, and they were about to make a move.
"Hey, slow down, since they are all peers, Ying Wuxin Xiaodaoxia is so scheming, and he actually came up with such a way to attract Mr. Liu's attention, it can be described as painstaking, why don't we let Mr. Liu handle this matter by himself, and it can be regarded as giving Ying Xiaodaoxia a chance and giving Zhengyang Daomen a face, isn't it?" Lin Wenzhao said with a smile.
"Young Master Renai, then let Mr. Liu make his own decisions, do you want to see or not to see the unintentional little Taoist?" Zhang Zhi said with a full of anger, his voice was lang, and everyone in a radius of hundreds of meters heard it clearly.
"Alas, what else is there to say, Mr. Liu will definitely not see it!"
"Yes, Mr. Liu promised to come to the theater to appreciate the script for Young Master Lin, how can there be any reason to meet other people at this time, this is not equivalent to destroying his reputation!"
"This Lin family deliberately poured fuel on fire, just to make Ying unintentionally ugly. β
"It's also to blame this little guy for being too reckless and daring to rob people in front of the young master of the Lin family, isn't this tantamount to snatching food from the tiger's mouth and killing himself?"
"Haha, this time I shouldn't have lost my face to my grandmother's house. β
"Not only him, but also the chief disciple of Zhengyang Dao Sect will suffer this time, alas, how can poor Li Zhengdao have such a stupid friend. β
For a while, people on both sides of the street were talking.
In the restaurant, Sun Xiaoman stood up suddenly, walked to the window, looked at the street outside, and looked at Lin Wenzhao at the door of the theater, his beautiful eyes were wide open, and he was furious.
"Ying Wuxin, this time I want you-"
Li Zhengdao stepped forward and immediately grabbed her, "Senior sister, don't be impulsive. β
"Senior brother, I shouldn't have intentionally killed you this time, but you still defend him?"
"It's not maintenance, do you believe in senior brother?" Li Zhengdao smiled gently, "Eat another plum." β
Bai Miaozhen watched from the side, her beautiful eyes blinked, and she was very puzzled, it's all on this, why does the senior brother still believe in Ying Wuxin?
Liu Yuan got out of the car, his brows furrowed, and his expression was solemn.
"Old Mr. Liu, how do you decide to respond to the request of the unintentional little Taoist?" Lin Wenzhao bowed with a smile and got up to ask.
Liu Yuan stood in place, silent.
Lin Wenzhao smiled more and more proudly, it seems that this time it must be right, Liu Yuan should have no intention of refusing.
"Hmph, if you want to climb the high branches, you will be a bastard this time. The position of the door, Zhou Qian grinned.
"Lin Gongzi, I'm sorry, the old man wants to see Ying Wuxin's little Taoist. Liu Yuan nodded, turned around and walked towards the side alley, where the reflection of the mirror was falling on the carriage.
There was silence in the audience, everyone was stunned, their eyes were staring to the limit, and they watched Liu Yuan walk towards the alley step by step in disbelief, the back was as firm as a rock, and everyone who smashed it was dizzy.
Liu Yuan entered the alley and never came out, and the second carriage arrived, and the coachman opened the door tremblingly, and a ray of light flew out of the alley and entered the carriage.
Wang Mo, who was dressed in a black robe, got out of the car, nodded to the front, and walked towards the alley, this time without even saying a word.
The same is true of the three old gentlemen Yue Changqing, Long Yuan, and Xi Dewen who came later, got out of the car and nodded to Lin Wenzhao, which was regarded as saying hello, and then walked into the alley, and also did not come out.
