Chapter 68: Birthday Gifts

Wang Jinqi saw that the sword had been praised by Mrs. Xu, and his heart was very happy, and he stood in place with his lips pursed, making everyone around him look sideways for a while.

At this time, Wang Jinqi stood up at the table again, in his thirties, he cranked the folding fan, looking very gentle, only to hear this person say: "Old lady Xu, I am not talented, and I also brought something, which is not very valuable, but it is also considered to be a good heart." ”

When Xu Ziqian saw this person, his eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled: "It turned out to be Brother Feng of the Cold Sword Sect, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

That person's name is Feng Chong, he is the chief disciple of the Hanjian Sect, although he is not very old, his status among the crowd is not low, usually he has a good personal relationship with Xu Ziqian, I only heard him say: "Brother Xu is polite, just now I saw Senior Brother Wang offering a sword, my heart is very itchy, although the things I brought are not very valuable, but I can't wait to give it." As he spoke, he took out a brocade box in his arms, and slowly opened the box, and inside was a black bead.

Everyone present was attracted by his bead, but after looking at it for a long time, no one knew what it was, and they all waited quietly for Feng Chong's reply.

Feng Chong smiled slightly, held the bead in his hand with a handkerchief, and said: "Old Birthday Xu, everyone, this bead is called Qu Poison Pill, although the name is not very good, but it has a miraculous effect, as long as you put him on your body and carry it with you every day, ordinary poisons dare not approach, and it has the effect of Qu Poison and ward off evil spirits." ”

Everyone in the hall was immediately in an uproar, and they all started to discuss, and Chen Heng, who was at the same table as Ah Xiu, whispered: "If this Qu Poison Pill really has such a miraculous effect, it is really much more precious than the ancient sword of the Nanshan Sect. ”

Huo Dengxu nodded in agreement: "What Senior Brother said is that that the sword is just a thing, it is useless to the old lady, and it can only be used for ornamentation." ”

Wang Jinqi saw that Feng Chong had stolen his limelight, and his face immediately turned red with shame, but he didn't hold back a word for a long time, and turned back to his seat, sullen.

Feng Chong was very happy to see Wang Jinqi's appearance, he handed over the Qu Poison Pill, and the old lady Xu took it, held it in the palm of his hand and looked at it for a long time, he liked it very much, and hurriedly smiled at Feng Chong: "Feng Chong, you really have a heart." ”

Ah Xiu saw it clearly on the side, and said secretly: Looking at the posture of these two people, I'm afraid that the relationship between this Nanshan faction and the Hanjian Sect is not very good.

Feng Chong sat down, and someone stood up, it was Zhou Changqi, the son of the Zhou family, he first introduced himself, and then took out a rectangular wooden box, opened it and saw that it was a large ginseng, Feng Chong introduced: "Old lady Xu, this is the thousand-year-old ginseng brought by my father in the north, it is the best product for healing diseases and nourishing the body, and it is specially offered as a birthday gift." ”

The Zhou family is a martial arts family in this area, both practicing martial arts and doing business, and the family is very rich, of course Xu Ziqian knew that the things sent by their family must not be wrong, so he hurriedly took it over, and said in his mouth: "My father's birthday, let Brother Zhou spend so much, it's really unpleasant." Although he said this, the ginseng plant was already firmly grasped in his hand.

"Senior brother, the Zhou family is rich, look at this thing given by others!" Jiang Huan said with envy.

Chen Heng and Huo Dengxu both nodded in agreement.

When Ah Xiu saw that ginseng, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, he had seen a ginseng plant that was more than 400 years old in Shangling Sun Hecheng, which was much larger than this one, and he didn't know if the Zhou family's strain was 1,000 years old. Thinking of this, Ah Xiu had a lot of doubts about the heritage and strength of these martial arts sects.

Next, various sects and families have presented gifts, some of the birthday gifts are fragrant wood, some are the spices from the extreme west, and some send gold, silver and jade, to Wuluomen here, Chen Heng took out a pair of longevity peaches, made of sterling silver, weighing about ten catties, and the production is relatively fine, but among the many birthday gifts, it can only be regarded as average.

This time, a total of more than a dozen sects and families came, and the birthday gifts were piled up one by one, which made Mrs. Xu's eyes brighter and brighter, and the smile on her face became deeper and deeper.

Jiang Huan looked at the oily Huo Dengxu, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Huo, you see that the old lady Xu didn't even look at you, it seems that you, the son-in-law of the Xu family, are afraid that you will not be able to be the son-in-law." ”

Huo Dengxu pursed his lips and replied disapprerovingly: "Hmph, he just wants me, I'm not rare." ”

His words caused Jiang Huan and Chen Heng to laugh loudly, and only Ah Xiu watched quietly, eating from time to time, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

Jiang Huan glanced at Ah Xiu, and found that the more he looked at this person, the more annoying he became, and suddenly had a plan, he would definitely make this hillbilly ugly.

She waited until the gifts of the various sects were over, and suddenly raised her voice and said, "Hey, this benevolent brother, everyone has offered birthday gifts, I don't know what you have prepared, you might as well take it out for everyone to see." ”

Her words immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, they all thought that Ah Xiu was a member of the Five Romans at first, but now at a glance, it must not be it, and they all guessed Ah Xiu's origin.

Ah Xiu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Jiang Huan say this, looking at Jiang Huan's sly smile, he immediately knew that this woman was looking for an opportunity to embarrass herself.

He swallowed what was in his mouth, casually found a cloth to wipe his mouth, stood up and said with a smile: "Oh, in Xia Lin Xiu, there is no door or faction, I just admire the prestige of Mrs. Xu, so I came to celebrate my birthday, as for this birthday gift...... This ......" said that Ah Xiu stopped, not that he didn't want to give, but he didn't prepare at all, although he was carrying some things on his body now, but it was either the Great Illusion Dzi or the Beast King Formula, or the elixir, but let him send these, I was really a little reluctant.

Jiang Huan looked at Ah Xiu's embarrassed appearance, and her heart was very happy, she smiled and said, "This benevolent brother, take out anything and let us all see it." ”

With her taking the lead, everyone present coaxed: "Yes, take it out and show it to us." "You see that this brother is extraordinary, but his clothes are so simple, he must have a great background. "Young man, don't hide it, take out the birthday gift. ”

Even Mrs. Xu and Xu Ziqian also looked at Ah Xiu, which suddenly made Ah Xiu blush, and said secretly: I'm just here to eat and drink, how can I have any birthday gifts?

But at this moment, a woman walked in in the back hall, looking seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a pale green dress, showing plain elegance, with the flying fairy hair bun of the girl in the boudoir on her head, and her white face was very beautiful, especially a pair of big eyes, inlaid with long eyelashes, very cute.

When everyone present saw this woman, they were silent for a moment, and they all paid attention to this woman, and they forgot about Ah Xiu for a while, which gave Ah Xiu time to take a breath.
