Chapter 10: The Head of the Family
The man in gray sat on the ground with his chest clutched, looked at the noodle stall owner viciously, and refused to speak.
"I don't apologize yet!" the noodle stall owner's face turned cold, and he walked towards the man in gray step by step.
"I'm from the Yannan Su family, you'd better let me go. The man in gray was unwilling and reported his name.
The noodle stall owner stared at the man in gray as if he hadn't heard, like a wild beast staring at its prey.
The momentum of the noodle stall owner at the moment made Bai Xichen and the three of them on the side afraid.
"Right...... I'm sorry!" The man in gray was completely shocked by the momentum of the noodle stall owner, and his voice trembled a little.
"Take your people with you!" Seeing that the man in gray had already apologized, the noodle stall owner did not embarrass him anymore.
Before the man in gray left, he glanced at Bai Xichen and the others meaningfully.
"Thank you senior!" After what happened just now, Bai Xichen knew that the old man in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person, so he was even more respectful of him.
The noodle stall owner smiled slightly, and continued to go back to the stall to get busy.
"Senior, aren't you afraid of his revenge?"
Although the owner of the noodle stall seems to be very powerful, Bai Xichen is still a little worried about his safety, after all, the man just now is a young man from the Su family, and the Su family in Yannan is notoriously domineering, and the strength of his family should not be underestimated, I am afraid that when the time comes, I am afraid that it will ......
It's just that Bai Xichen didn't know that the young man of the Su family had already put this grudge on his account.
"Let's go! The old man still has to do business. ”
"Then don't bother. Bai Xichen thanked the stall owner again.
Seeing that it was about to be night, after the three of them left the noodle stall, they found an inn in Qingzhou City that looked good.
"Senior sister, it's hard to travel today, let's rest early!" Bai Xichen said to Wushuang.
"Well, so do you. ”
At this time, it was just night, how could Bai Xichen and Wufeng sleep like this, so the two took advantage of the fact that Wushuang went back to the room to rest, and ran out to play for a while before returning to the inn.
The next day at noon.
"Senior Brother Wuchen, it's time to get up. Frostless knocked on the door.
"Got it, senior sister!" Wuchen yawned and woke up the sleeping Wufeng.
At this time, there were people coming and going on the streets of Qingzhou, most of them were disciples who came to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and I saw them in groups of three or five, talking and laughing towards the Hua family.
"Brother Wuchen!" Suddenly, someone patted Bai Xichen's shoulder from behind.
Hearing this voice, Bai Xichen was overjoyed, and hurriedly turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Zimu, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm!"
Zhang Zimu smiled and arched at Bai Xichen, and then saluted Wushuang and said, "Senior Sister Wushuang is really getting more and more temperamental. ”
Generally, the disciples of the mountain sect will not bring their entourage when they travel, so Taihe Mountain only Zhang Ziyi comes to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet every year.
"Your little mouth is getting sweeter. Wushuang smiled softly, and then introduced her little junior brother Wufeng to Zhang Zimu.
Zhang Zimu said hello to Wufeng, and walked towards the Hua family with the three of them.
Several people were talking and laughing, and soon arrived at the Huajia Garden.
The Hua family is the head of the family, mainly to do business, so the residence of the family is also splendid, extraordinary, the two sides of the door of other houses are placed stone lions, only the door of his house is placed in front of the stone dragon.
The Hua family has a big business, so there are many rules, and those who come to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, even if they are the head of the mountain gate, don't want to step into the Hua family half a step without an invitation.
"We are disciples of Qianshan Wuwei and disciples of Taiheshan. Wushuang and Zhang Zimu handed the invitation to the gatekeeper, and only after the gatekeeper confirmed the registration did they let them enter the Hua family.
The people of the Hua family first took a few people to the residence, waited for everyone to put their luggage, and then took a few people to the Hua family's reception hall.
At this time, the hall was very lively, and there were hundreds of disciples of the mountain gate family sitting inside.
A few people glanced at it and decided to sit in the back as in previous years.
After everyone took their seats, it didn't take long for a middle-aged man to walk into the hall, the man's steps were steady, his forehead was bulging, and his whole body exuded a breath of inaccessible to people, this is the head of the Hua family, Hua Batian.
"Everyone, be quiet!" Hua Batian stretched out his hand and said.
As soon as Hua Batian opened his mouth to speak, the originally noisy hall suddenly became unusually quiet.
Hua Batian first spoke politely to everyone, and then talked to everyone about the content of this Hundred Flowers Banquet.
Hua Batian told everyone that in the past, the Hundred Flowers Banquet was mainly based on chatting and making friends, and touring the mountains and rivers, which has been the case for so many years, so in order to make the disciples of the mountain families more aware of their shortcomings and advantages, the Hua family decided to add two competition activities this year.
The competition is mainly divided into two categories: one is the intelligence test, and the other is the force test.
The intelligence test is mainly to test the knowledge and understanding of the disciples of each family on the mountain and stone spirits, evil demons and monsters, as well as on rare and exotic plants.
The main martial arts competitions are: swordsmanship, archery, immortal arts, light skills, boxing and free competitions.
After Hua Batian finished speaking, there was an uproar in the hall.
These disciples are all leaders in their respective sects, and they usually look like they are not convinced, but this year they have increased the competition, and many disciples have expressed their approval, and they all want to win glory for their own sects.
"It's going to have fun now!" Bai Xichen picked up his long sword and looked at it over and over again, seemingly not interested in this competition at all.
Seeing that everyone seemed to like the activities of the new home, Hua Batian nodded with satisfaction, and then told everyone. As long as you get the top three in a single competition, the flower family will give a certain reward. ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall, and the disciples who were hesitant before had already begun to move at this time, and even Bai Xichen put down his long sword and thought seriously.
"The competition will start the day after tomorrow, you go down and prepare well, and come to the main hall tomorrow at night to register. After Hua Batian explained the matter, he let everyone move freely.
"Brother Wuchen, which event are you going to participate in?" Zhang Zimu asked curiously, to be honest, he really didn't know what Bai Xichen's cultivation was after knowing Bai Xichen for so long.
Bai Xichen touched his chin and pondered for a moment, then shook his head at Zhang Zimu: "I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it tomorrow!" and then asked rhetorically: "What about you?"
Zhang Zimu put his arm around Bai Xichen's shoulders and said confidently: "If our Taihe Mountain's boxing and palm techniques are the second, then no sect dares to call it the first." ”
"That's right!" Bai Xichen nodded, expressing his approval.
Taihe Mountain's boxing and palm techniques, including light gong, mainly use the principles of Bagua and the Seven Stars, so many sects are inferior to them.
The Qianshan Wuwei faction majored in swordsmanship and immortal law, and Wuwei's swordsmanship was mainly based on deriving sword qi, and those who cultivated to the end of the world could not only derive ten thousand swords, but even be able to integrate human swords.
Since Wufeng was the first time to come to Huajia, everyone decided to take Wufeng to visit the entire Huajia Garden, which just happened to increase his knowledge.
