At noon, all the righteous people on the rivers and lakes walked towards the main hall of Yijian Villa, and there were crowds of people along the way, talking and laughing one after another.

Yang Xueli was dressed in white, holding the Blood Spirit Immortal Sword in her hand, her face was cold, her bearing was outstanding, she walked in front of everyone, frowning all the way, and seemed to be thoughtful.

Yu Shuang and Pan Xincheng followed behind her, Yu Shuang looked around, followed quickly, lowered her voice, and said to Yang Xueli: "Senior Sister Yang, why don't you see Senior Sister Tian Fang and Senior Brother Qin?"

Yang Xueli glanced at him when she heard the voice, and said lightly: "They have returned to the mountain." ”

Yu Shuang was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "Back to the mountain?"

Yang Xueli's face was cold, and she said straightly: "Not bad." After so many things have happened, we can't make up our minds, so we need to inform the master as soon as possible and ask him to decide. ”

Pan Xincheng walked behind the two of them and said lightly: "There are a lot of strange things here, and it should be up to the Venerable Master Qingyang to decide. It's just that the status of the Liu Yangshan faction is not trivial, Qin Gongzi and Miss Tian are the proud disciples of your faction, and this time they suddenly disappeared from the birthday banquet, if Yijian Villa really has any intentions, I don't know if it will arouse suspicion?"

Yang Xueli turned her head and glanced at Pan Xincheng, muttered for a while, and said with a clear eye: "Later, I'll wait for the opportunity to act, it's not a secret, the Blood Spirit Immortal Sword can sense the demonic qi within ten miles of the vicinity, I have the same mind with it, since last night, this demonic aura has not stopped." ”

Pan Xincheng and Yu Shuang were both taken aback, Pan Xincheng frowned and said, "So, Yijian Villa has really colluded with the Demon Dao?"

Yang Xueli nodded slowly and said, "The enemy is in the dark, and I am waiting in the light, so don't act rashly." ”

Yu Shuang glanced back, and saw that everyone's faces were full of joy, and no one looked at them at all, he frowned, turned around and said, "Could it be that they are hiding behind us in the people who came to the banquet?"

Yang Xueli shook her head and said, "There are no people from the Demon Dao among the people who came to the banquet, this answer, except that Master Xie Zhuang can tell me and others, I am afraid that only we can find out by ourselves." ”

As they spoke, they had already walked outside the main hall.

The main hall has been arranged by the disciples of Yijian Villa in the early days to be very grand, the door of the main hall is open, the door beam is decorated with lights, red silk is man, looking from the door, a huge red "Shou" word hangs on the wall of the main hall. At this moment, the main hall was already full of banquets, and everyone slowly walked in like a long dragon, and sat down on the banquet under the arrangement of the disciples of Yijian Villa.

Yang Xueli and Yu Shuang were arranged on the same banquet, in the middle of the hall, Yu Shuang looked at the banquet, only to see that each seat was holding a cup of hot tea, the heat was curling, and the fragrance of tea was overflowing. The delicacies on the table were full of color and flavor, and looking at it couldn't help but make him swallow.

After everyone was seated, an old man dressed in the costume of Yijian Villa held a teacup in his hand, slowly walked on the main hall, raised his hands slightly, and signaled everyone to be quiet in the hall. At the end, he said slowly and loudly: "The old man is the master of the Yellow Flag Hall of the Mountain Villa, and all the Taoist friends have come from afar, making my Hanzhuang flourishing, and I am very grateful." ”

Yu Shuang looked at the old man when he heard the voice, and saw that the old man had a white beard and white beard, his lips were curled, and he looked a little familiar, it was the old man who received them yesterday.

I saw that the old man was full of joy, and said loudly: "The ancestors of Hanzhuang, the second owner of the village has left a will, and you can't drink alcohol in the village." So today, the old man will replace the wine with tea, respectfully to you, please drink this cup to your heart's content, and wish me a long life for the owner of Yijian Villa!"

Everyone in the hall was in an uproar, and they all picked up the teacups on the table and drank them all.

Yu Shuang held the teacup in his hand and watched everyone drink it one by one, only Pan Xincheng and Yang Xueli hesitated, holding the teacup and glancing at each other, Yang Xueli shook his head slightly, signaling Pan Xincheng not to drink it, but Pan Xincheng groaned for a while, and finally raised his head and drank it all, and finally whispered to Yang Xueli: "Miss Yang don't worry, Pan has his own way, if you don't drink, wouldn't it break the rules?"

Yang Xueli looked at Pan Xincheng and hesitated for a moment, then turned her eyes to Yu Shuang again, and groaned slightly, as if she was about to speak. Yu Shuang sat next to her, met her gaze, suddenly felt an inexplicable nervousness, and raised her head and finished drinking.

Yang Xueli's face was stunned, and at this time, there was suddenly a rather sharp-sounding voice on the same table, jokingly: "This tea is of the highest quality, mellow and moisturizing, why doesn't Miss Yang drink it?"

Everyone looked and saw that the man was sitting opposite Yang Xueli, wearing a yellow shirt, with a thin face and dark skin, about thirty years old, and he didn't know which school it was, looking at Yang Xueli with a smile.

They sat at the same table for eight people, and at this time, other people chimed in: "Yes, yes, Miss Yang is naturally beautiful, beautiful as a flower, this tea is fragrant, and it must have the effect of nourishing the skin and nourishing the skin." ”

A joking voice continued: "Miss Yang is so careful, could it be that she is afraid that the tea is poisonous, and the owner of Xie Zhuang wants to harm me and others who go to the banquet?"

As soon as these words came out, several righteous people at the same table who went to the banquet burst into laughter.

Yu Shuang frowned when she heard this, he knew a little bit about Yang Xueli's temperament, Yang Xueli was cold by nature, and a little arrogant, if she angered Yang Xueli, with her temperament, she might not have a seizure on the spot.

He turned his head to look at Yang Xueli, but saw that Yang Xueli was expressionless, his expression was cold, and he had no anger, as if he was deaf to their words. It seemed that Yang Xueli's cultivation was much better than he expected, so he put his mind at ease and whispered to Yang Xueli: "Senior Sister Yang, Uncle Pan and I have both drunk, it's okay, you just drink it, otherwise it will arouse suspicion." ”

Yang Xueli turned her head to look at the Purple Flag Hall Master on the main hall, and saw that he looked calm, so he finally picked up the teacup and drank it all.

Pan Xincheng smiled faintly and said to everyone: "Miss Yang doesn't like to drink tea, everyone has their own love, don't be surprised." ”

The man in yellow shirt sitting opposite Yang Xueli said with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that the Liu Yangshan faction is in the righteous way, and I am fortunate to see it today, it is really unique, admire and admire!"

"Exactly. ”

Yang Xueli's face was cold, and she turned her head to look at the main hall and ignored it.

Yu Shuang laughed dryly and said to everyone: "Uncle Pan is right, don't joke anymore." ”

Everyone's eyes looked at Yang Xueli, and when they saw that she was arrogant and cold, they couldn't help but be closed, and they couldn't help but stop talking.

Above the main hall, the master of the Purple Flag Hall stood with a smile and continued to say aloud: "Since the ancestor Xue Shangxia established the village, the Hanzhuang faction has been established for more than a thousand years. Under the leadership of the five optimus pillars of the righteous path 'Tiangong City', 'Liuyang Mountain', 'Lingyun Sect', 'Divine Spear Valley' and 'Jincheng Temple', our faction has always played the role of a vanguard, galloping on the battlefield, promoting morality, and comforting the ancestors. ”

Everyone in the hall applauded, and there was an uproar, and someone got up and said loudly: "Yijian Mountain Villa is worthy of its name, and it is really a model for my generation of righteous cultivators. ”

In the following opinion, Yijian Villa has not sought fame and fortune for many years, and has always been a livelihood for the people of the world, which is enough to be equal to the five major factions of the righteous path. ”

"Yes, what Brother Ran said is reasonable, if you talk about merit, Yijian Villa can be ranked among the Five Noble Paths. ”

“......”

At this time, it was already noon, Yu Shuang's stomach unconsciously "growled" twice, he looked embarrassed, looked left and right, fortunately the uproar was loud, under his best efforts to cover up, even Pan Xincheng beside him did not hear it.

He looked sideways at Yang Xueli, only to see Yang Xueli frowning, looking at the Purple Flag Hall Master without blinking, as if he was thinking.

At this time, a rather hoarse-sounding voice suddenly came from the back hall: "But the Demon Dao is still prosperous, and it is really a big trouble for my Dao henchmen to fight against my righteous path and plot against me." As righteous people, we must not be careless. ”

This voice, Yu Shuang heard it as soon as she heard it, it was the voice of the owner Xie Yuanzhong.

As soon as the words fell, I saw Xie Yuanzhong, the owner of the village, wearing a fiery red silk robe, opened the curtain of the back hall, and walked out of it with a smile. His complexion was ruddy, his hair was childish, and his demeanor was all over the place, and he seemed to look a little younger than yesterday.

Yu Shuang and Yang Xueli's complexions changed greatly, and the two glanced at each other, and they both saw incredible colors in each other's eyes.

The two of them had also seen Master Xie Zhuang earlier, he was full of demonic energy, with an old dragon clock, why in just a few hours, it seemed to be reborn, his body was righteous and awe-inspiring, and his demeanor seemed to exude a vigorous heroic spirit.

The two looked at Pan Xincheng again, Pan Xincheng was also suspicious, looked at the two of them, and couldn't help frowning and whispering: "What you said in the morning, is it really the owner of the village?"

Yu Shuang was also suspicious when she saw this, and she pondered for a long time, as if she wondered if she was wrong.

But Yang Xueli was firm in her eyes and said, "It won't be wrong, there must be something greasy in this." ”

At this time, everyone got up together and said to Xie Yuanzhong: "I wish the owner of Xie Zhuang a long life!"

Pan Xincheng frowned and looked towards the main hall, at this time Xie Yuanzhong had already walked to the main hall, he stood with his hands in his hands, his expression was graceful, there was a faint smile on his face, and after scanning the crowd, he slowly said: "Please sit down!"

After everyone sat down, Xie Yuanzhong said lightly: "Thank you, old man, for coming from afar and coming to the village." As the old decay said, these years the devil is rampant, all living beings are still in dire straits, the old decay is deeply ashamed, although he is nearly 100 years old, Hanzhuang has been governed in the hands of the decay for decades, but after all, there is no kindness to the common people, how dare you compare with the five leaders of the righteous path?"

Someone in the hall got up and interrupted Xie Yuanzhong, and arched his hand and said: "Master Xie Zhuang is serious, the owner of the village is already 100 years old, but he works hard for the people of the world all day long, and it is difficult to enjoy the joy of old age, he is really a model for my generation, today's third head of 'Hong Jiandao' Fang Xiao replaced wine with tea, toasted the owner of the village, wished the owner of the village good fortune and health, and longevity!" As he spoke, he picked up the teacup on the table and respectfully held his hands.

Everyone also picked up the teacups, stood up, and saluted the owner Xie Yuanzhong.

A little boy also brought the teacup at this moment, Xie Yuanzhong picked up the teacup, with a grateful look on his face, hesitated slightly, and said slowly: "Thank you for the kindness of the head of Fang, but this first cup can not respect the old man, but to respect the ......" Saying that, he suddenly leaned over, pointed to the two Taoist statues on both sides of the back hall, his eyes faintly burst into tears, and his voice said sadly: "Some time ago, it was reported that Yu Qiong sacrificed his life for the common people in the world, and the old man admired it very much, and after learning that this was true, the old man couldn't sleep all night, and washed his face with tears. The world loses an arm, I lose a pillar of the righteous path, the merits of the old decay in this life, compared with just a drop in the ocean, the first cup should be honored to my southern Daozun, I hope that he has nine springs to know, can bless me on the right way to destroy the demon as soon as possible, and return the world to peace. ”
