Chapter 33: The Feast

Guangyao Qianming City, a black and gold city within a city, its name is said to have been a beautiful scenery when the city was first built.

Whenever night falls, there are often thousands of lights shining at the same time, and the sheng song continues. This is not to say how extravagant and lascivious the saints are today, and they hold banquets at the expense of people and money, but there are too many guests who need to be entertained, and these people are all from all over the world to come from all over the world to witness this magnificent imperial city, how can they not receive it?

However, that was a long time ago, and although there are still many people who want to go in and observe now, this imperial capital is no longer open to outsiders.

And those insiders who are allowed to enter, it is generally more comfortable to call it 'Thousand Ming City'. The castle is divided into an inner castle and an outer castle, and there are many rooms and gardens in the two parts of the castle, and all of them are decorated in different ways, so it can be said that each view is worth stopping and seeing. Members of the royal family and their families lived in the innermost and safest inner city, while the outer city was allocated to important officials and important guests.

At the beginning of the contact between the cultivation realm and the human world, a large amount of wealth and rare collections in the imperial capital were not less remembered by the people of the Demon Sect, and at the beginning, the other party only sent a small number of personnel to carry out a tentative attack.

At that time, the imperial court urgently summoned all forces and temporarily formed a special team to meet the invading cultivators, most of which were composed of soldiers in the court and warriors in the human world.

The martial artists of the human realm are not weak, but their strength is somewhat vulnerable in front of the cultivators, but because of the large number of people, they finally stubbornly resisted the subsequent attacks, and then finally ushered in the decent sects who got the news to come to help, and not far later, the mysterious Guangyao Ke also joined the ranks of guarding the human realm, so far, it can be regarded as laying the foundation for the prosperity of Guangyao City.

Now, I don't know how many cultivators are employed in Qianming City, secretly protecting everything in the imperial capital, on weekdays, these cultivators secretly patrol the city, and even life is in Guangyao City, the imperial court does not hesitate to spend a lot of money to take precautions, so as not to repeat the mistakes of the past, this news soon spread in the cultivation world, and the comfortable life and preferential treatment provided in the imperial city also made the cultivators who are willing to come to the human world endlessly.

From now on, there will be new cultivation almost every day. Bodyguards' door-to-door application, manpower is no longer a problem, and with the improvement of law and order in Guangyao City, many young people have almost forgotten this heroic history, but at that time, this temporarily established resistance team has been preserved, but these hired cultivators do not belong to this group, and this team has also been constantly reorganized, absorbed, and reorganized, and has become a person affiliated to the imperial capital, but its members are people from various forces in the city, among which there is no distinction between high and low.

The team now has a name as 'The Rock'.

Among the several major organizations in the human world, there are many people who are also subordinate to the rock, because the interests of the two do not conflict, so it is not very surprising that they belong to both sides, and they are completely allowed by the imperial court. In the past, if you wanted to join the rock, you only needed to have a heart to protect the human world and a force that was enough to protect yourself, so most of the members at that time were martial artists with different skills, but after a series of changes, the conditions for joining the rock have become quite harsh.

And the rock has also changed from the organization that once focused on the number of people to the current elite-based, extremely low-key secret organization, mainly responsible for secretly monitoring the security hazards in the city and investigating the news trends of the cultivation realm. The recruits are no longer limited to force, but also focus more on the mind, etc., so the current rock has become very different, and there are a group of people with very special positions among them, and the special reason is from the mysterious power in them.

This group of people with mysterious powers belonged to a small group of people, and most of them were still living in seclusion, and these people who came to the imperial capital would not want to appear in the world if they were not forced by the great threat brought by the appearance of the cultivation realm.

This group of people has a mysterious 'qi' in their body, which is the source of their strange powers, so outsiders also call them 'anomalous magicians', the qi of the aliens' physical energy is transmitted through their blood, which allows the magicians to cast some extremely powerful spells through a variety of spells written outside, and their unique way of nourishment, so that their average lifespan can be as long as hundreds of years.

If compared to ordinary martial artists, the average ability of an alien is stronger than that of most martial artists, but when all kinds of magical arts are placed in front of the devastating power of a cultivator, it is as ridiculous as a toy.

After the initial setback, the magicians have also understood that only by joining hands with the human forces can they survive the invasion of the cultivators and maintain the continuity of the race. Although the abilities of the magicians are limited, if they join forces to meet the Jindan cultivators, their strength will be increased several times, and at the same time, the magicians who are good at team combat can maximize the ability of the warriors.

It can be said that the addition of the magicians has brought a huge boost to the resistance of the human realm, so much so that in the future Rock Organization, a special place has always been reserved for this group of special aliens, and an area has been set aside in the outer city for the people they are willing to come here to live.

If it is full, another piece will be demarcated, which shows their status in the emperor's heart.

The god of the night, a thousand lights, like a galaxy reflected on the ground. In the outer city of Qianming City, in a banquet hall, a simple dinner is being held.

An abundant but not lavish dinner, with only a bowl of stewed lamb and a more abundant vegetarian dish, sometimes with a soup made with the freshest vegetables, two stir-fried dishes, but no drinks, but replaced by a large cup of tea. All these things were neatly arranged on dozens of small tables in the hall, and in today's simple, even very shabby feast, everyone sitting at the table did not dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction on their faces.

The men were separated by two rows, separated by the same distance, so that they could hear each other clearly when they spoke, and the distance between them did not allow them to interfere with each other's eating.

Above these two rows, however, there was a very different seat, in front of which stood in an open space, covered with exotic cushions, on which sat a man who was clearly not here, more like a wild man from some backward tribe, with exaggerated vermilion tattoos that spread from his neck to his arms, still dressed in sleeveless coarse cloth on the colder autumn nights, with only a dirty furry animal skin on his shoulder.

The muscles exposed by this person's arm are unusually strong, and the wheat-colored skin is glowing with a healthy luster, and every movement of his arm drives the muscles to vibrate vigorously, and the vermilion tattoo on his body is reflected like a red snake that has come to life, which is extremely charming.

Such a strong man with a rough appearance, but his facial features are delicate and exquisite, but around those warm eyes, mysterious totems are painted with black paint, which completely erases his temperament.

The wheat-complexed man looked at the people sitting in front of him, clapped his palms, signaled that he had something to say, and then raised tea to them as a substitute for wine.

"Thank you for all the contributions you have been making to Guangyao City, everyone will return to their respective posts after this meal, today is rude, I didn't arrange any more drinks. ”

"With your efforts and maintenance, the life of the people in the city is getting better and better, and your efforts are also obvious to all! The people have a very high opinion of us, and I am also honored to hear this good news, but I also want to remind you that the Demon Sect has disappeared recently, and it may just be in Taoguang to cultivate obscurity, which is very likely to be the enemy's plan to underestimate the enemy, so you must not be careless!"

"Don't worry, my lord!" came a uniform voice from the table, everyone gathered teacups, and drank them all after greeting from afar, and the maid on the side also carried a kettle to add tea to everyone.

Without a word, everyone had eaten unceremoniously, but everything here was very orderly, and it was clear that this was not the first time that such a feast had been held.

The man on the stage looked at everyone below while eating, and finally fixed his eyes in one place: "Jiang Yan, I will trouble you to stay for a while after eating today." ”

Jiang Yan heard the sound and looked up at the man in surprise, for him who was so busy that he forgot to eat lunch today, he was busy filling his stomach as fast as possible just now, and asked the maid for two bowls of rice in advance, after all, he had to rush back to work when he was done.

Jiang Yan wrapped his rice with a bulging mouth, and said vaguely: "No problem, Master Wu!" After speaking, he continued to bury his head and eat hard against time.

This Jiang Yan, who is reincarnated like a starving ghost, is Jiang Huaiyi's biological father, although he leads all kinds of decisions in the entire Jiang Mansion, but his appearance is very idle, if he goes to a strange place and says that he is the staple food of a large organization, no one necessarily believes it.

Calm, solemn, these words have nothing to do with him, if you have to describe it, he is more like a hard-working office worker. As the leader of the Jiang Mansion and the organization of the Source Crane, he is also a member of the Rock, and the Wu Lord who sits alone on it is the leader of the Rock, that is, an important member of the mysterious alien clan.

This muscular 'Lord Wu', whose full name is Wuzhen, is nominally the leader of the rock, but they are all at the mercy of the emperor in the end, and Wuzhen, a man who is rough on the surface and delicate on the inside, is also very clear about this in his heart, so he is also quite polite to each member on weekdays, and does not regard himself as a special person.
