163, start
On January 1, 2008, the weather in Qianyang was no different from before, it was still cloudy and rainy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Qianyang city center, fountain, a private non-operating tea house.
When Zheng Yi came to this teahouse and explained his intentions, one of the people in charge of the hall arranged for a waitress to take him straight to the third floor of the teahouse.
"Coming?"
When Zheng Yi came to the third floor, Wang Qixing, who had blonde hair with a broomstick, saw him coming, and got up from the position he was sitting on to greet him.
The place where the four of them met was a teahouse in the center of Qianyang.
It was not arranged by Zheng Yi, but Zheng Yi who was notified by Wang Qixing and the other three after they came to Qianyang silently.
Since I didn't visit officially in the name of the governor of the state, I didn't have to pay so much attention to the etiquette, and everyone dressed casually.
The four presidents of the mysterious faction, in addition to Zheng Yi himself, Wang Qixing and Xu Shengzhi have already met Zheng Yi. The only thing I haven't seen is Shu Xingkai, the head of the mysterious faction, so when he came to the third floor, Zheng Yi's eyes subconsciously searched for Shu Xingkai's figure.
Because the third floor was empty and there were only four of them, Zheng Yi's eyes instantly locked on a square table on the third floor, and the two figures were playing a game of Go.
One of the figures has an elegant temperament and white temples, and it is Xu Shengzhi, the chairman of the Yuzhou Jianghu that Zheng Yi has seen before.
And the other person who played against Xu Shengzhi was obviously the president of Xiangzhou Jianghu and the head of the mysterious faction "Shu Xingkai".
After Zheng Yi responded to Wang Qixing, who came up, he looked at Shu Xingkai carefully.
Shu Xingkai's appearance looks about thirty years old, about 1.75 meters tall, and his appearance is ordinary, but a pair of dead fish eyes are very individual, and the pupils in them seem to be thinking about problems at any time, and there is no focal length, which makes Zheng Yi impressed at a glance.
Seeing Zheng Yi looking at Shu Xingkai, Wang Qixing on the side said with a smile: "How is it? Is there a big gap between Lao Shu's image and what you imagined?"
Hearing Wang Qixing's words, Zheng Yi withdrew his gaze, glanced at the other party, and said, "There is a gap." ”
He originally thought that as the head of the mysterious faction, Shu Xingkai should be a very powerful and domineering person, but it turned out to be a dead fish-eyed, and the eyes that seemed to be thinking about problems all the time without focus looked like a mad scientist who was obsessed with research.
While Zheng Yi and Wang Qixing were talking here, Xu Shengzhi and Shu Xingkai, who were playing not far away, slowly closed and stood up.
"Xiao Zheng is here?"
Xu Shengzhi, who had a one-sided relationship, walked over with a chuckle.
Shu Xingkai still had the same dead fish-eyed appearance, and after following Xu Shengzhi over, he looked at Zheng Yi with unfocused eyes, and said with a slight smile: "Finally met, hello, I am Shu Xingkai, the chairman of Xiangzhou Jianghu." ”
With that, he stretched out his hand.
Seeing this, Zheng Yi also stretched out his hand and shook the other party, and replied: "Hello, I am Zheng Yi, the chairman of Qianzhou Jianghu, and I have been a big name for a long time. ”
"You're welcome. ”
Shu Xingkai smiled, let go of his hand and retreated behind Xu Shengzhi, and said, "You guys talk first." ”
Zheng Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard it.
But at this time, Xu Shengzhi explained with a smile: "Xiao Zheng, Lao Shu has been like this all year round, he is no longer distracted all the time thinking about cultivation, martial arts, and spiritual issues, and he is multi-tasking, leaving only one distraction to think about his daily behavior and speak, don't you mind." ”
"Oh?"
Zheng Yi listened to the interest, as a member of the mysterious faction who studied the secrets of "God", Xu Shengzhi's multi-purpose statement was obviously not the kind of multi-purpose of simple ordinary people, it should be the differentiated use of "God".
This kind of "distraction" ability, Zheng Yi only knew how valuable it was when he got the "Xuanshui Ball" to try to distract himself.
If he had mastered this ability when he was in Japan, it would not have been so difficult to face Zhou Sheng, who was a half-step immortal, as long as he was distracted and controlled by the Xuanshui Ball to constantly split, attacking the opponent from various angles, so that the opponent's condensed blood power could not cope with it, and with the computing power of the "Nine Swords Algorithm" to spy on the flaws, Zheng Yi might be able to win easily.
Therefore, when he heard that Shu Xingkai actually had the ability to distract, he couldn't help but be very interested.
Be sure to ask for advice on distraction in a moment......
Thinking like this in his heart, Zheng Yi replied with a smile: "It's okay, only President Shu's concentration can give us the strength to resist overseas factions." ”
The mysterious faction originally had only three people, but it was able to compete with the overseas faction that originally had ten people, and the difference in individual strength among them can be imagined!
In addition to the headquarters of the Jianghu Governors of the Thirty-three Prefectures and Provinces, most of them are just opening up the Nine Veins, refining or refining Qi Mahayana, and a few are masters who can rank in the top 100 of the hero list, among which there are a few half-step human immortals and earth immortals.
In addition, among the five major factions, in addition to the overseas faction's "Fu Dahai" and the conservative faction's "Zhu Shen", the Northeast King "Jiangshan" who dominates the three northeastern provinces, as well as the "Huang Yaoye" who runs rampant in the south of the Yangtze River, and the mysterious faction leader "Shu Xingkai" are all at the level of "Three Flowers Gathering at the Top", condensing the masters of one of the three flowers!
Among them, the "Jiangshan" of the Northeast faction condensed the essence flower and achieved the human immortal, and was studying the refining of qi, but it was only at the level of ordinary Mahayana of refining qi; while the "Huang Yaoye" of the Jiangnan faction was more powerful, condensing the qi flower and stepping into the realm of earth immortals, and at the same time refining the essence also reached the level of a half-step human immortal; and the head of the mysterious faction, "Shu Xingkai", did not condense the essence flower, nor did he condense the qi flower, but condensed the divine flower and stepped into the mysterious and unpredictable level of the heavenly immortals.
The three of them have never fought, and they don't know who is powerful, in terms of realm, it should be Huang Yaoye, who is about to condense the second of the three flowers, to take the lead, but there are too many factors involved in this kind of battle, and the environment, martial arts, weapons, and so on must be considered.
Northeast Wang Jiangshan's self-created "Avenue Solo Gong" is incomparable!
And as a divine flower immortal who few people can condense throughout the ages, Shu Xingkai also made the other two unable to see through.
Moreover, everyone is a person from the rivers and lakes, and there are five emperors under horizontal pressure, and it is impossible to really be an enemy, just an occasional small action friction game.
"Hehe, indeed, Lao Shu is the biggest support of our department. ”
Listening to Zheng Yi's words, Xu Shengzhi echoed and smiled.
As soon as his words fell, Shu Xingkai, who retreated behind him, answered: "Old Xu is polite. If it weren't for your help with chores, I wouldn't have been able to concentrate on these issues. ”
"Hey, I said you've had enough of each other, sit down and have tea!"
Wang Qixing, who had been listening to the conversation between the three of them, rolled his eyes and said.
When the three of them heard this, they looked at each other and smiled and sat down one after another to discuss matters......
After that, the next day.
On January 2, the four of them flew from Qianyang Longbao Airport to Kyoto to attend the annual meeting of the Jianghu headquarters.
......
Thursday, January 2, 2008, Capital International Airport.
When Zheng Yi, Shu Xingkai, Xu Shengzhi, and Wang Qixing came out of the Capital International Airport, the sky in Kyoto was blue and cloudless.
"Hey, doesn't it mean that Kyoto is a city with heavy smog, which is worse than Yuzhou?"
Walking out of the airport and looking at the cloudless blue sky, Wang Qixing sighed.
"It's real fog in Yuzhou, not haze, thank you. ”
Xu Shengzhi on the side replied.
"It should be the Five Emperors, who have been blown away for the time being. ”
Shu Xingkai, who has dead fish eyes and no focus in his eyes, no longer thinks about cultivation, martial arts, and gods all the time.
Zheng Yi's heart shook when he heard this.
Is the level of the Five Emperors already able to command the wind and clouds......
"The four presidents, please, we have prepared the car and arranged the hotel for you to stay. ”
A sweet voice came from the side, a beautiful young woman in a professional suit skirt, standing beside several people, smiling.
When Zheng Yi and the four of them came out of the VIP passage of the airport, the reception staff of the Jianghu headquarters, four beautiful young women and eight strong young people, a total of twelve people in formal suits, had been waiting for them outside the airport passage for a long time.
And although these twelve people had already restrained their breath, Zheng Yi still felt the bloody aura on these twelve people when he left the airport passage.
The Jianghu headquarters actually arranged twelve masters to receive them!
It's so heavy!
In a state or province, whether a master has joined the rivers and lakes or not, as long as he does not commit a crime, then the two sides are in a relationship of mutual respect.
But the Jianghu headquarters in Kyoto was arranged to be a "welcome", which is really a bit of a "luxury".
Of course, these twelve masters "welcome" are just refining Hinayana and opening up the cultivation of one or two veins.
Compared to the thirty-three masters who came from the thirty-three prefectures and provinces, who were at least the leaders of the Nine Veins Refining or Qi Refining Mahayana, these masters who were only one or two vein cultivators were still very happy to come as "greeters".
The chairman of the rivers and lakes manages a state province, and he is at least a master of the nine veins, as long as he points a few words casually and misses something, it is also a lot of "wealth" for these masters of the first and second veins.
Therefore, Zheng Yi didn't see any resistance on the faces of these twelve masters.
And think about it, the winter in Kyoto is more than 10 degrees below zero, and only experts who are not invasive can greet them in formal clothes at such temperatures.
Of course, for the ordinary people around who didn't know the truth and were tightly wrapped in this weather, these twelve masters in formal clothes were no different from fools in their eyes.
Wearing so little in such a cold weather, isn't it stupid?!
"How many presidents have you welcomed?"
Zheng Yi, Wang Qixing, Xu Shengzhi, and Shu Xingkai were respectively led by the four beautiful young female masters to the car parked on the side of the road, the unified Hongqi car. On the way, Zheng Yi asked the young girl who was following beside him.
Four beautiful young female masters and eight young masters, one woman and two men respectively, followed Zheng Yi and the four of them, and walked towards the four cars.
"We don't know this very well, but the presidents have arranged to stay in five different hotels, and we are only responsible for welcoming the four of you, and the presidents who go to the other four hotels will be greeted by other people. ”
The young female master who followed Zheng Yi replied respectfully.
"That's it. ”
Zheng Yi looked thoughtful after hearing this.
Obviously, this kind of arrangement of the Jianghu headquarters was specially arranged for the people of the five major factions in Jianghu.
There are often frictions and struggles between the five major factions, and it is inevitable that there will be contradictions between them, and if they live in a hotel together, if they accidentally encounter a conflict, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The battle of the Nine Veins Great Masters spread, and the hotel and the surrounding buildings alone would be severely damaged, not to mention the ordinary people nearby.
Although there are five emperors who are under pressure, I believe that no one dares to do it, but in order to put an end to this kind of thing, it is the most reasonable arrangement to arrange the presidents of the five major factions in five different hotels.
"This year's arrangement is still the same as in previous years, right?"
Wang Qixing heard Zheng Yi's words, and immediately looked disappointed, "I thought it would be different, I still practiced hard and prepared to kill the fools on the other side of the sea, what a waste of expression!"
“......”
His unscrupulous words made the faces of the twelve "welcome guests" twitch, but they didn't dare to answer, so they could only pretend not to hear.
......
By the time the Jianghu Headquarters arranged a hotel for the four of their mysterious faction in Chaoyang District, it was already dark.
After getting off the Hongqi car and walking into the hotel, more than ten minutes later, Zheng Yi and the four of them were arranged to live in the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel.
“...... President Zheng, if you have any orders, just dial 2727 from the phone in the room, that's the room number where I live, my name is Zhao Xin. ”
After arranging everything, before leaving, the young woman who followed Zheng Yi said with a smile.
"Got it, you go and get busy. ”
Zheng Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.
Then, the young female master named Zhao Xin left.
"Bang. ”
After the other party left, Zheng Yi closed the door and prepared to take a shower first, but before he could enter the bathroom-
"Jingle Bell~"
The antique phone rang suddenly.
Zheng Yi frowned slightly.
He had just checked into the hotel, why did a call come in?
Frowning, he came to the phone and picked up the earpiece and put it to his ear.
There was silence in the earpiece for a while, and then a reluctant voice came: "Hey, your grandfather wants to see you." ”
It turned out to be Han Xiang......
This cousin in Kyoto, when Zheng Yi came to report to the Jianghu headquarters last time, was received by the other party - to be precise, the other party deliberately came to receive him.
"Nope. ”
Zheng Yi said coldly, and then hung up the phone directly.
He didn't have a good impression of the people on his mother's side.
In the life before he was reborn, he didn't see them until he encountered the disaster of annihilation, and now he has a little strength and status to recognize each other, how can it be so cheap?
"Jingle Bell~"
The phone rang again.
A trace of impatience flashed in Zheng Yi's eyes, and he picked up the earpiece and said indifferently: "I said no, please don't call me again, otherwise I will report you to the Jianghu headquarters for unauthorized access to my accommodation information!"
“...... Yo, there's a story!"
Wang Qixing seemed to have heard the gossip, and said excitedly: "What kind of plot? sadomasochism or absolute love or blue life and death love?!"
“...... It's you. ”
Zheng Yi said angrily: "Love you big-headed ghost, what are you looking for me?"
"I'm going to ask you to eat together. ”
Wang Qixing continued to say excitedly: "...... in the end"
"Whew. ”
Zheng Yi hung up the phone directly, not giving the other party a chance to gossip.
For the next few days, the four of them stayed in the hotel, eating and playing everywhere, and nothing happened until January 5th.
Then, the annual meeting of Jianghu headquarters finally began!
