Chapter 23: The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars
The steamed catfish in the center of the table is steaming hot, this is a dish, and it is also a soup, the taste is both fresh and delicious, and there is no trace of fishy smell. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Jinling City is the place where the top chefs gather, and the dishes provided by the inns and restaurants on the third and fourth floors are all of the best in taste, and can provide some rare dishes, such as live octopus dipped in sauce, such as crispy mice, in short, they are the best of the best.
The dishes were ordered by Li Tingxi, she and her younger brother often came to Jinling in the past, and they had a certain understanding of the nearby food, Shen Fei was responsible for spending money, and he had money, so he naturally didn't care about these.
The dishes on the table were steaming hot, Shen Fei and Nalan Ruoxue sat on one side, Tingxi and Ting Fang sat on the other side, the four of them were all handsome men and beautiful women, but they all had their own thoughts, and there was a mouthful of food without a match, and the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing.
The embarrassment of the atmosphere comes from many aspects, the most important thing is Nalan Ruoxue's jealousy, this little girl doesn't know what's wrong, after seeing Tingxi, she was jealous, looking at each other viciously, no rudeness at all.
The four of them sandwiched the dishes one after another, chatting occasionally for a word or two, Ruoxue deliberately showed that she was very intimate with Shen Fei in front of Li Tingxi, and she had to let Shen Fei pick up the vegetables for her, so she put her two free hands, hugged Shen Fei's arm, pouted from time to time, and looked forward to kissing back fragrantly, but unfortunately she never got a response.
Li Tingxi was very generous, not caring about Ruoxue's performance at all, and chatting with Shen Fei from time to time, just these two sentences, Nalan Ruoxue and Li Tingfang couldn't interject.
Objectively speaking, Tingxi is very mature and steady, very different from ordinary girls, her almond-like eyes reveal charming, gentleness and rare wisdom in women. Pink lips are thin and seductive, and it is rumored that people with thin lips can speak and speak.
After chatting for a while, Shen Fei began to lead the direction of the topic to Penglai Immortal Island, there are many rumors about Penglai Immortal Island on the rivers and lakes, but they are not true, Tingxi and Tingfang were born in Penglai, and their status is not shallow, so Shen Fei intends to ask some of these things.
"By the way, Tingxi, what kind of place is Penglai Immortal Island, is it really as described in the rumors, it is a pure land of bliss, composed of many powerful scattered immortals. Shen Fei took a sip of wine and asked intentionally or unintentionally.
After listening to Shen Fei's question, Li Tingxi also took a sip of the wine glass, and replied in a deep voice: "It should be said that this rumor is not true. Thinking before speaking, Li Tingxi's behavior is very calm, which is very different from when I first met a few years ago, and it should be the result of careful tempering.
"Oh?" Shen Fei wondered.
Tingxi sank, probably because she didn't feel the need to hide it from him, so she continued: "If you have to describe it, I think that although there are many scattered immortals on Penglai Xiandao Island, these scattered immortals are actually mostly marginal characters, and the three major families of the sun, moon, and stars are really dominant. ”
"The sun, the moon, and the stars again?" Shen Fei said unconsciously, before going down the mountain, the head of the sect had personally told him that Penglai Immortal Island was divided into three major families, the sun, moon and stars, and people from these three families must be extra cautious and cautious. It stands to reason that the people of the three major families will wear clothes embroidered with corresponding patterns on the neckline, even the Cuilan Xuan Xuan who is trading in Ruyang is no exception, but Tingxi and Tingfang are dressed very normally, aren't they people from the three major families? Suddenly thinking of this, Shen Fei was puzzled, but listened to Tingxi continue: " The origin of the three major families is the top secret of Penglai Immortal Island, with all due respect, but the history of their existence is much longer than the appearance of Shushan, they have lived on the sea for a long time, and have built a set of their own unique ecological environment centered on the empty mulberry sacred tree. The appearance of the scattered immortals is after the establishment of the Shushan Sword School, and it is the same until now, the immortals of Shushan have gone down the mountain for various reasons, some of these immortals have entered the Buddha country of the world, and have lived a life of entering the world, and some of them have lived overseas and entered Penglai Immortal Island, Penglai Immortal Island is a fairyland on earth, and the immortals who have entered Penglai Island have accumulated more and more over the years, and the owner of the island has established Juxian Pavilion in order to effectively restrain them.
Therefore, Juxian Pavilion is actually just a department under Penglai Immortal Island, and it can't touch the core of the island, and even the main island Penglai can't be allowed to enter. ”
"I see. Shen Fei took a deep breath: "In this way, it is not good for Sanxian to mix in Penglai. ”
"No one discriminates against them, but they also can't get in touch with the core of Penglai Immortal Island. Li Tingxi replied truthfully.
"So I get it. Shen Fei nodded, "But I still have a doubt in my heart, I don't know if Miss Tingxi is willing to answer it." ”
"Tell me about it. Tingxi said bluntly, she would not hide what she could say.
Shen Fei nodded, and said word by word, "We all know that the purpose of the existence of Shushan is to "follow the heavens and do the way for the heavens", the purpose of the existence of Buddhism is to "walk asceticism in the world and create a pure land", and the purpose of the existence of the Demon Sect is to "pursue the ultimate of strength", so what about Penglai, the immortals of Penglai Island, what is the purpose of their existence?"
"Well. Li Tingxi frowned slightly.
"Isn't it convenient to say?" Shen Fei was curious.
"Indeed, this is also the secret of our Penglai Immortal Island. Tingxi looked embarrassed
"Penglai Island has done a really good job of secrecy, no wonder it is known as the most mysterious place in the world. Shen Fei said this intentionally.
Brother Shen smiled. Tingxi smiled bitterly.
At this time, Ting Fang suddenly said: "The hair is short and the knowledge is short, what do you know, we people from Penglai Immortal Island have the noblest blood in Kyushu, and the residents of the island were born to accept the most sacred mission, compared with you Taoist priests who pretend to preach the will of heaven, we are naturally much more noble." ”
"Tingfang, you are talking nonsense again. "For her younger brother's heart to be straightforward and ruthless, Tingxi is really helpless.
Shen Fei frowned because of this, and said secretly: "The noblest blood in Kyushu, the mission that was born to accept? It seems that there is indeed a big difference between the real Penglai Immortal Island and the legendary Penglai Immortal Island. ”
After a moment of silence, Shen Fei raised his head and saw that Tingxi was teaching his younger brother a lesson, he couldn't help laughing, and then interrupted them: "The three major families of Penglai Island, Sun, Moon and Star, dare to ask which branch of them they belong to?"
"This!" Tingxi stopped again.
Still Tingfang's mouth was fast: "Of course it's the Ri family, stupid melon! Even if our sister and brother are within the three major families, they are also the most noble bloodline!"
"Tingfang!" Tingxi glared angrily.
"I see!" Shen Fei poured himself a drink and drank all the wine in his cup, "Thinking of the dark sky, countless stars surround the sun and the moon, it seems that the division of the three families of the sun, moon and stars is the same, the sun is in the sky, and the sun is in the middle." The position of the sun is naturally supreme. ”
"You're right, in Penglai, the status of the Sun family is the most noble, followed by the moon, the shadow under the night, and the last is the star. The real aristocracy is, in the final analysis, our Japanese family. Li Tingfang ignored his sister's obstruction and said proudly that his personality of great joy was really special.
Shen Fei showed a wicked smile and poured wine for Ting Fang: "The son of the Ri family, it turns out that your status is so respectful, come, have a glass of wine, Shen respects you." ”
Tingxi immediately stopped: "No, my brother can't drink." ”
It's a pity that before he finished speaking, Ting Fang had already drunk it all: "I see that your kung fu is good, so you will mix with me in the future, and I promise to eat and drink spicy food." ”
"In your Penglai Island, the scattered immortals have no status, and I don't have any status if I follow you. Shen Fei said both truthfully and falsely.
"It depends on the owner to beat the dog, if you follow me, your status will naturally rise, and it can't be compared with ordinary immortals. After a glass of wine, the court's face instantly turned red, and his speech became more open-mouthed.
Shen Feixin said: Okay, you stinky boy, treat me Shen Fei as a dog by your side, see how I treat you.
At that moment, he poured another cup for him: "Yes, yes, yes, in this way, I want to give another cup to my son." ”
"Okay, good on!" he said, raising his glass and drinking it all again.
Tingxi on the side quit and dissuaded: "Tingfang, you can't drink anymore, you ...... every time you finish drinking" The latter words were not finished, only heard the sound of "whoosh", Tingfang stood up slowly, overturned the table, his face was red, swaying, and his mouth was full of nonsense: "Good wine, good wine, hahahahaha
"Shen Fei, why do you always provoke Ting Fang, he is not strong enough to drink, and he will go crazy after two glasses of wine. For Shen Fei's two successive actions, Tingxi was a little unhappy.
Shen Fei didn't expect that there were such people in the world, after drinking two glasses of ordinary sake, he had already changed into a different person and began to play drunk, he overturned the table before, if he didn't dodge it in time, he would have soiled his clothes by the dishes on that table.
Ting Fang took advantage of the strength of the wine to lift the table, and the other people in the restaurant heard the sound and looked over one after another, and saw that the four people at the table had handsome faces and extraordinary bearings, and they were a little more interested. There are many wealthy merchants and immortals who have come here, and everyone is used to people with extraordinary bearing, but these four people can still attract their attention, because the temperament of the four people is even higher than the young and handsome people they have seen.
Among them, there are sharp-eyed ones, and they even recognize the identities of Shen Fei and Li Tingfang, both of them have amazing performances in the arena, and they are in the limelight, and the people who have just returned from the arena quickly recognize them, "It turns out that they know each other!"
Shen Fei watched Ting Fang start a drunken madness, as if he had changed into a different person, his eyes were cloudy, his body swayed, and he casually waved his palm and surged out a surging air current, shaking back those who dared to approach. Because the inn in Jinling City is under the unified jurisdiction of the Linghu clan, the store does not keep thugs in captivity, and a few slightly stronger shopkeepers came up to dissuade them without knowing how to do it, and were swept by the surging air current, and even fell and vomited blood because of it.
Seeing that her brother was going crazy, she didn't know anyone anymore, and her anger arose, and her hands were quickly sealed, and she was about to use the same means as before to seal the other party. Tingxi's technique of sealing is very ingenious, which is slightly different from the heavenly and earthly branch seals of Shushan, because the speed is too fast to see clearly, and I only vaguely feel that there are more complex and esoteric seals mixed in it, and the connection is more smooth.
When the seal was about to be completed, suddenly a winding and rugged tree stem sprouted from below the ground, the stem was thick, winding and rugged, growing extremely fast, full of tenacity, and the strength of Tingfang's palm could not break it.
The stem of the banyan tree grew rapidly, and soon enveloped Ting Fang, from hand to foot, it was forcefully entangled, forming a cage, and Ting Fang's strength could not get out of trouble.
Li Tingxi was really taken aback by the scene in front of her, she had only seen such a powerful wood system creation technique twice so far, once on the main island of Penglai Island, and the other time in Jinling. She suddenly turned around and looked at Shen Fei, who was shining with Xuanguang, and showed a surprised look for the first time: "This is what you summoned?"
Shen Fei slowly retracted the form, calming his breath, and after he closed the form, the banyan tree that was forcibly formed did not wilt away, "How about it, it's very strong." He laughed playfully, playfully.
The onlookers did not feel the slightest cuteness from his naughtiness, but felt terrifying, they had seen a lot of powerful immortal techniques in the fighting arena, like Shen Fei's trick of summoning a big tree with dense branches to restrain people's hands and feet, but they had never seen it, they had never heard of it, and Li Tingfang, who had beaten the little second brother to a mess before, was also helpless in front of the stem of the banyan tree that grew in this soil, which showed the power of this trick.
Tingxi was even more nervous, and asked suspiciously, "How did you do it?"
"Immortal art is used to save lives, and it is the biggest secret of immortal cultivators, so I can't tell you casually. Shen Fei intended to tease her.
Tingxi said: "Brother Shen Fei, I haven't seen you for many years, you have really become a lot stronger. ”
"I thought you could see through the fact that you were getting stronger as early as when you were fighting people in the ring. ”
"Although I felt it at the time, but after all, I didn't see you use immortal arts, this time, Brother Shen Fei, you must have had a great experience. ”
"Hehe, Sister Tingxi, I have indeed experienced a lot of things, and these are nothing compared to the purpose of my trip down the mountain. ”
"What are you doing when you go down the mountain on this trip?" Tingxi frowned again, and when she was with Shen Fei, she always seemed to be surprised.
I saw the other party's gaze slowly sweeping over the crowd, and said indifferently: "I have only one purpose for this trip down the mountain, and that is to be famous all over the world!"
Like thunder, like a thunderbolt, when the Shushan boy said these four words under the blue sky and white day, everyone was not surprised, but relieved, as if from the firm and iron-like eyes, they had already read the young man's grand ambition.
World-renowned!
In the past few years, how many young talents with this purpose have come to Jinling, and how many people have been able to return as they wish. Jinling is the shortest stairway to success, and it is also the most convenient passage to fall off the cliff.
