Chapter 10: The Banquet in the Hall
This Zhuangzi doesn't look big from the outside. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoBut when you get inside, it's something else.
Qu Mingde followed the people of the Tiannan Dart Bureau and entered Zhuangzi under the guidance of the old man.
After a flash of effort, I don't know where the old man called a little servant, and led everyone to a courtyard on his behalf.
"A few distinguished guests will rest here for the time being, and in the evening, my lord will entertain him with a banquet. The little guy said to Guan Yingxi, who was the leader.
Guan Yingxi nodded noncommittally and motioned for the little guy to take care of himself.
When talking, the two sides seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they invariably forgot the excuse when Miao Pengyun knocked on the door. It seems that the people of Tiannan Dart Bureau really came to Zhuangzi to visit its owner.
At this time, Zuo Chengwen said: "It seems that this master already knows our intentions." ”
With that, he smacked his lips and looked around again, as if looking for something.
"Wouldn't it be more convenient that way? Qu Mingde said.
Zuo Chengwen said: "It's indeed convenient! It's just that the people who sleep in this good place tonight can't help but be a little bit more." ”
"People die for money, and birds die for food, as has been the case since ancient times. Qu Mingde said: "Since the friends from outside are here, they must also be prepared for this." ”
"Then what about you, Brother Qu, I look at you, as if you don't care about what happened after you. What's the matter, are you also prepared before you come?" Hearing Qu Mingde's words, Zuo Chengwen stopped looking left and right and looked at him intently.
Since meeting Zuo Chengwen and others, Qu Mingde has always had a smile on his face, and it is the same now.
Hearing Zuo Chengwen's question, Qu Mingde just said unhurriedly: "I can't help myself, so I was involved." However, I'm ready to be a spectator, with you standing in front of you, Brother Zuo, I don't think it's my turn to be this bird or this person. ”
"Really?" Zuo Chengwen's eyes suddenly became sharp. "If Brother Qu is just a spectator, then, this talisman is full of wind and rain in the city, is it really made by God?"
Qu Mingde shook his head and said, "This, I'm afraid I'll have to ask God, anyway, I don't know." ”
Miao Pengyun and Guan Yingxi sat at the top of the place. For the conversation between the two, it is obvious that they will not be unable to hear it. However, when Qu Mingde said that he was just a spectator, except for Miao Pengyun who glanced at him, Guan Yingxi didn't even move at all.
Seeing the appearance of Miao Pengyun and Guan Yingxi, Qu Mingde breathed a sigh of relief.
Time passed minute by minute, but the owner of this house seemed to have forgotten the existence of everyone in the Tiannan Dart Bureau.
For a long time, it was as if the courtyard had been erected, and no one came to ask if they needed some tea.
Fortunately, Qu Mingde and others are all people in the rivers and lakes, and there is no shortage of this ability to endure hunger and thirst. Therefore, even if they did not come to pay attention to them, the people were still able to sit in peace.
Finally, when night fell, Zuo Chengwen picked up the big gun he put in his hand and stood at the door to look up.
Qu Mingde glanced at Guan Yingxi, who seemed to be a wood carving Bodhisattva, and then said to Zuo Chengwen: "Why is Brother Zuo so anxious. ”
"Hey. Zuo Chengwen laughed and said: "I can't compare with Brother Qu, Brother Qu is now sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai, but I have to think about my own things." ”
Before saying such a sentence, Zuo Chengwen had already looked outside four or five times.
"Wen'er, don't be impatient!" At this time, Guan Yingxi, a Bodhisattva who had been making clay sculptures, opened his mouth once. "They'll be here soon. ”
Hearing Guan Yingxi's words, Zuo Chengwen still seemed restless, but finally reluctantly came back. Only this time, he kept the spear in his hand, and he didn't mean to put it down at all.
Qu Mingde watched his movements from the side, and couldn't help but stroke his long sword as well.
Just like the conversation between him and Zuo Chengwen earlier, this is indeed a good place. And tonight, there will be many people who choose to sleep here.
Not long after Guan Yingxi spoke, there was finally a sound of footsteps outside.
As soon as the footsteps appeared, Miao Pengyun was the first to look outside, and then quickly retracted his gaze.
The next ones who reacted were Zuo Chengwen and Qu Mingde, and finally the disciples of the Tiannan Dart Bureau.
Guan Miao bent the four of them, and although they heard footsteps, they were still sitting on chairs. And the disciples who reacted last were stunned and all stood up.
"Ladies and gentlemen, my lord has already prepared a banquet, and I invite you to move a little and go to the banquet with me. The man stood outside the door and spoke loudly to the crowd.
At this time, both the disciples who were standing and Miao Zuo who was sitting turned their heads to look at Guan Yingxi. Only Qu Mingde lowered his head and stared at the sword lying across his lap, not knowing what he was thinking.
"The host set up a banquet, and we naturally can't live up to this heart. Let's go together. This is the third time Qu Mingde has seen Guan Yingxi speak today.
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and walked out first. Naturally, the others followed closely.
Zuo Chengwen glanced at Qu Mingde and said, "Brother Qu, you can follow me." ”
"Naturally, I also want Brother Zuo to block those frost swords and snow swords for me. Qu Mingde replied.
"That's the best!"
Under the leadership of that little guy, everyone dressed in all directions, and finally arrived at the main hall.
After entering, I saw that in the hall, seventeen or eighteen tables had been placed on both sides. On the table, there are vegetables, melons and fruits, and wine bottles.
"Tut-tut, I heard that the owner of this house is just a deacon of Huang Feng Valley, how can he put on such a show? It seems that Huang Feng Gu is still really hidden!" Qu Mingde looked left and right for a while, and whispered to Zuo Chengwen.
"Maybe!" Zuo Chengwen seemed to have changed his personality with Qu Mingde at this time, and after replying in a low voice, he stood behind Guan Miao and the others in a regular manner, looking at his nose and nose, looking at his heart, and looking like he didn't squint.
"Please also sit down at will, my lord will be here in a while. The little servant led the people into the hall, and after saying such a respectful word, he withdrew.
Guan Yingxi and Miao Pengyun looked at each other, and chose the chief on the left side to sit down.
Then Miao Pengyun said to everyone: "Let's sit casually, when the master comes out, everyone has to take a good look, what kind of extravagant character is this!"
The disciples received the order and sat down in twos and twos. As for Zuo Chengwen, he naturally pulled Qu Mingde and sat on the second seat on his left hand.
Not long after everyone sat down, there was another sound of footsteps outside. Then I heard someone say, "Ladies and gentlemen, please come into the hall and sit less, my master will be here in a moment." ”
Someone is here again!
