Volume 1 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 76 Sinister Intentions

Lin Pinghe rubbed his temples tiredly, and monitored the whole afternoon, from the Xufu warehouse to the kitchen, from the study to the thatched house, a non-falling monitoring without dead ends, but nothing suspicious was found.

We can only wait a little longer......

When night falls, the lanterns are on, and the lanterns hanging everywhere in the Xu Mansion are full of joy.

The guests gathered, the plans were staggered, and the major banquets lined up from the living room to the water pavilion in the corridor, probably looking at the dozens of tables.

The important guests have not yet arrived, so only the maidservants and domestic slaves are busy preparing in the living room.

However, some of the people who wanted to climb the lower ninth class of the Xu family had already come to the door, and many people had already sat in the open-air banquet outside.

In front of the living room, Steward Yao was waiting for the reception.

The head of the Xu family is a concubine, not a wife, and a big family such as the city lord's mansion will naturally not have a patriarch to come, at most send a big housekeeper or send a gift to congratulate.

The patriarchs of some second- and third-rate families who have business dealings and some chamber of commerce presidents will naturally not be absent.

At three o'clock, a maidservant girl came to the door and invited Lin Pinghe to the living room.

Along the way, countless people came and went, and they saw the brightly lit hall from afar.

In the living room, ten large round tables were placed, and many patriarchs had already arrived to sit down and communicate with each other.

At the door, a house slave beside Steward Yao was holding a gift list and singing a salute:

"President of the Black Flag Chamber of Commerce, send a pair of blue-eyed butterflies!"

"The head of the Lou family, give eight magnolia grasses!"

"The head of the Huang family, send a shop in the south of the city!"

......

Lin Pinghe walked to the door of the hall and heard that the head of the Huang family, who ranked second among the four major families in Tianfeng City, had actually come in person and sent a shop.

This is a common sense, usually only the boss of the family chamber of commerce comes, will directly sing what the head of the family will be; if you send a housekeeper or give a gift, it will only be "Huang family, send a shop in the south of the city!"

Lin Pinghe was a little embarrassed at the door, he didn't have any gifts, although he came to kill people, he had to do it.

Steward Yao's family is fine, and he doesn't say much, he smiles and arches his hand, wanting to invite Lin Pinghe directly in.

Is Lin Pinghe the kind of person who doesn't give gifts when he eats? He said to the slave: "Let's just say that I, Lin Pinghe of Nanhua Academy, gave the head of the Xu family a sentence of longevity than Nanshan!"

The house slave's eyes flashed, and he sang with low eyebrows: "Lin Pinghe of Nanhua Academy, send a sentence of Shoubi Nanshan!"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding space suddenly fell silent, and then a lot of ridicule came out, and everyone present turned around to look.

Some whispered:

"Awesome, send a word, this word is worth a thousand gold!"

"What does Nanhua Academy want to give? Being able to come is the biggest congratulatory gift, what do you know!"

"Well, that's right, but it's a bit ...... cough cough ...... "A white-haired head of the family just wanted to say something, but he was afraid that trouble would come out of his mouth, so he pretended to cough to cover up the past.

A few people at the same table around him thought in their hearts: This old fox.

In addition to the head of the family in the living room, there are also some young people who followed, who are fascinated by the name of Nanhua Academy, and only hate their lack of talent!

Xu Chujie had already sat down with several young ladies who had come, waiting quietly without saying a word, and originally felt a large number of glances at her.

But as soon as Lin Pinghe appeared with the singing, he didn't have anything to do with himself in an instant, and sometimes he sighed very much, it was difficult for his thinking to keep up with this imaginative teenager.

Lin Pinghe was stunned, is the degree of freedom to be a house slave so high now?

The problem is that although Steward Yao was also stunned for a moment, he remained silent, and still asked the young man to go in with a smile on his face.

Lin Pinghe wondered for a moment, and walked directly into the hall.

"Haha, Lin Xian's nephew is here!" Xu Manyong's bold laughter came, eagerly grabbed the young man who was in the spotlight, and said aloud to everyone in the hall: "Heads of the family, presidents, many people must know each other, I solemnly introduce here again, this is a generation of Tianjiao Lin Pinghe-Lin Juzi!"

There was even more uproar on the field, how could everyone be considered a character in Tianfeng City, and the meaning of the title of the person was naturally understood.

Some young people have even more complicated visions, they are younger than themselves, and they have even broken through to the stage of Qi cultivation! Some are incredible, some are full of envy, and even more are angry and jealous......

A president smiled flatteringly: "Lin Juzi is really a young talent, the old man admires the five-body throw, if it weren't for Nanhua not allowing people to accept apprentices at will, I would like to worship you as a teacher!"

Lin Pinghe's face was also thick-skinned, and he nodded and smiled back, looking useful.

A family owner next to him was very disgusted with the same style in his heart, but he couldn't lose the opportunity to show his face, and smiled at Lin Pinghe: "The little girl in the family has always admired Lin Juzi's peerless talent, I don't know if I can be lucky enough to come to the cold house!"

Phew~ shameless, I'm ready to sell my daughter! I don't know how many people can't help but want to spit on this family owner.

Xu Manyong was afraid that the scene would get out of control, so he laughed at himself: "This is a big day for my Xu Mansion, as soon as Lin Juzi comes, he will turn against the guest!

Then, with Lin Pinghe, he introduced a white-haired old man on the main table, "This is Huang Rudong, the old master of the Huang family." ”

Lin Pinghe was just a little curious about the self-surrender of the head of the family, and he couldn't talk about anything else.

The two sides met once, and they took their seats at the main table.

At this time, I found that the world is still strong and noble.

Because Xu Chujie is a female dependent, it is inconvenient.

In addition, there are only Xu Manyong as the master, Huang Rudong, Lin Ping and the three people on the main table. Sit down in a three-legged position.

Young people like Xu Hao sat with some visitors of the same age, and the eyes of this table did not leave Xu Chujie's direction.

Xu Manyong, as the host, is naturally indispensable for an opening, thank you for enjoying your face and playing smoothly today......

Everyone naturally praised each other, you are happy, I am also happy.

Attendants and maidservants poured in, and all kinds of wine came one after another.

After a while, the musicians arrived, and the twelve dancers waved their cloud sleeves and entered the empty stage prepared in advance.

Suddenly, singing and dancing came out together, and the lights were bright.

After three rounds of drinking, Lin Pinghe's face was slightly red, and he was a little drunk, but his eyes were clear, and he inadvertently searched around, and still did not have the breath of a monk in the Qi cultivation period, could it be ......

Lin Pinghe couldn't help but glance at Huang Rudong a few more times, and secretly became a little more vigilant.

The descendants of the Huang family did not come, and Xu Hao became the highest-ranking among the young people, and his face was flushed by several peers, and he drank one glass after another of the best wine.

A young man drank some wine and asked sideways: "Brother Xu, does your sixth sister have a crush?"

Xu Hao also drank a lot, feeling a little drowsy, and looked in the direction of the young man's gesture, a beautiful woman who was independent of the world sat quietly.

Xu Hao only felt that his head was hot, and he directly pushed away the young man who was in the way, walked to Xu Chujie's side slowly, and said in a serious tone: "You, come to the study with me, there are some things to explain to you!"

Xu Chujie was expressionless, and followed Xu Hao off the table under the incomprehensible gaze of some female dependents.

Lin Pinghe also noticed this, thought about it, and said with his divine sense: "If necessary, control Xu Hao first, there is no need to sacrifice anything." ”

Xu Chujie, who was originally low-eyed and pleasing to the eye, suddenly took a step slower, turned her head to look at Lin Pinghe, and smiled slightly.

In an instant, like an epiphany, the fragrance appeared, and the whole hall was a little brighter......

A small episode, Xu Manyong frowned at the departure of his eldest son and youngest daughter, but in a blink of an eye, he returned to his original state, talking and laughing with visitors.

At this moment, after most of the night banquet, Xu Manyong clapped his palms, and the dancers seemed to have received an order to leave, and they passed between the tables of many guests, and even Lin Ping and the main table here had two or three dancers to take care of.

Several small family heads were full of light, but when they thought that the occasion was wrong, they forcibly held back and nodded with a smile.

The dancers faded away, leaving behind only the fragrance of rouge.

Suddenly, Lin Pinghe's eyes froze, and he held his breath unconsciously.

There is something wrong with the taste of this rouge! mixed with a slight powder of soft withered grass and the fragrance of the cloud-swallowing fruit......

"Elementary Alchemy" has a similar formula in it - Eliminating Cartilage Pill.

As the name suggests, it can make people's spiritual power suppressed, and their bodies are weak and weak for a period of time, which is very powerful, and it will also have an impact on the monks during the Qi training period, and the combat power will be greatly reduced!

Don't...... Xu Manyong wants to control these people?

Then there is no way, I have to be forced to do it! I just hope that the people of the Sword Sect who are planning behind it are also there, so that they can be caught in one net, otherwise it will always be a disaster.

Everyone in the hall was still immersed in singing and dancing, but no one noticed that except for Steward Yao and a house slave behind him, Xu Manyong was left, and the other house slaves and maidservants were all gone.

A young boy had drunk a lot, and suddenly found that he was out of wine, so he got up drunk and shouted outside, "Where's the wine?

Another kid joined in and said, "Yes, why is there no wine? I'll go out and ask!"

"Go, go!"

......

The house slave at the door unconsciously straightened his waist, and nodded at Xu Manyong on the main seat as he walked into the hall.

Xu Manyong got up with a smile, pressed it with both hands, and motioned to the guests to be quieter, "Everyone, everyone! With the happy event of my Xu family, the old man has a more important thing to say here, and there is a great opportunity to share with you." ”

"Xu family master, please say, what kind of good thing?" shouted a president with a flushed face and a thick voice.

Xu Manyong smiled and said, "I know a big secret of Tianfengwen here!"

He didn't sell Guan Zi, and when everyone was puzzled, he said it directly: "There is definite news: Tianfeng Wen secretly colluded with the Sword Sect to prepare to slaughter Tianfeng City and ask the Sword Sect for merit and reward!"

Immediately, the audience was in an uproar, most of the people were full of incredulity, and the hands of individual family owners who raised their wine glasses stiffened, and their drunkenness instantly sobered up a lot.

Xu Manyong ignored the reaction of the audience, looked down at everyone with his head held high, and said word by word: "I am ready to unite with you to crusade against the Tianfeng family and maintain the rule of Nanhua!" Then, he did not forget to bewitch: "After the deed is completed, such a great achievement, where will there be less rewards from the academy!"
