In the center of the hall is a long table covered with red silk, and the gold-plated tableware shines in the candlelight. The headmaster and others sat down one after another, and the night wind blew in from the window, causing the silk fabric under the table to flutter slightly.
At first, everyone just chatted among themselves, and soon the food was served on the table.
The aroma is rich, and the tempting taste of fresh soup and roasted meat makes Fu Yunge and the three people's index fingers tickle because they have barely eaten in the past few days. Without much politeness, Subiezhi took off his chopsticks first, picked out something delicious and started eating like crazy.
The leader and others saw them devouring their food, and although they wanted to laugh, they didn't show it. Later, when they had almost eaten and their hunger gradually subsided, the leader was eager to get down to business.
"I don't think it's a big deal about the Phoenix Halberd."
Unexpectedly, it was Subiezhi who spoke first. He picked his teeth with a toothpick and said to the leader casually.
"There is no need for Longji to take the initiative to cause trouble among them. Just deal with it. If there is a problem when the time comes, they won't come here to cause trouble."
The leader looked at him, brows a little hesitant: "This..."
"Onlookers are clear, listen to me on this matter, and I guarantee that your Dragon Halberd will be safe and sound." Subiezhi pursed her chin and said with a smile.
"This, okay..." Seeing that he was so sure, the leader didn't know what to say.
Fu Yunge and the others didn't know anything about this matter, and they couldn't help but become curious at this time. They turned sideways and lowered their heads to ask Long Tao next to them: "What is the matter about the Phoenix Halberd?"
Long Tao glanced at the leader to confirm that he was not paying attention to him, then he breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his voice to explain to the two of them:
"I only know roughly about this matter. It seems that there are differences within Fengji, one of the seven sects, regarding the decision of this action."
"Disagreement?" Dongfang Shiming began to think in his mind.
"Yes." Long Tao nodded, "It is said that the leader of Fengji has a disagreement with their second-in-command. Regarding the matter of holding a conference first and then joining forces to fight against Jiuche Xiaoying, it seems that Fengji fully advocated... …But their second-in-command seems to disagree. He advocates canceling the conference and going to war directly.”
"This..." Fu Yunge and the two were stunned for a moment.
"Then it got more and more intense, and there seemed to be disputes within Fengji." Long Tao frowned and said, "I don't know anything else. I only know that both their leader and the second master came to Longji to talk to the leader. , probably because of these things. After all, among the seven sects, the dragon and the phoenix have always been equally famous, and the two families are relatively close."
"That's it." Fu Yunge blinked seriously after listening.
Long Tao's expression was still a little regretful. He sighed: "If something like this happens to Phoenix Ji, the performance of this conference will definitely be affected. It's a pity that we can't compete as much as we want."
Suddenly, after Subiezhi swallowed a piece of duck meat, he waved the duck bone and continued: "I remember the last Golden Halberd Fengjian Conference. The winning sect was... Zhenshan Halberd?"
"No...that was last time." Disciple Long Hao corrected from the side.
"The overlord last time was the Jade-faced Rakshasa Halberd." The leader's nose slightly flared, as if he was a little unwilling.
Subiezhi didn't mind at all. He licked the golden grease on his lower lip and said with a smile: "It seems like a narrow victory, right? But it doesn't matter. You are already half buried, so you have to look away from some things."
The leader was not angry, but calmly smacked his lips and thought about Subiezhi's words.
Fu Yunge lowered his voice and said to Dongfang Shiming at the side of the table: "This leader is really good-tempered. It makes me want to say something nice to him."
Dongfang Shiming smiled slightly and declined to comment.
"You mean...you want me not to value the honor of the conference?" After thinking for a while, the leader looked at Subiezhi as if he had woken up from a dream, "In other words, you want me to help Qingkun, the second head of the family?"
"Who said that?" Subiezhi shook his fingers repeatedly, "As you get older, you need to keep up with your nutrition. After all, you are the type who wants to lose weight first. You can't even understand such a simple truth?"
"I would like to hear your advice." The leader said calmly and calmly without losing his temper.
"That is to say, don't be too constrained by fear and be timid." Subiezhi knocked on the table, "Worrying about your sect being affected and your reputation being affected. This is not your style back then."
"Prepare well for the conference, give the opportunity to the younger generation to have a big fight, and try your best to win the championship. Regarding the Phoenix Halberd, you can do whatever you want. If you are worthy of yourself, you will naturally be worthy of the sect. In this special period, a martial arts sect must do whatever it takes to win the championship." The terrible thing is not death, but the loss of energy in lingering."
Hearing Subiezhi suddenly talk seriously, Fu Yunge was shocked at first. However, every word he said made sense, and looking at the leader's calm expression, it seemed that it was not a problem that he worried about.
The dinner lasted very late. Afterwards, Subiezhi and the leader were mainly reminiscing about the past. In addition, they were both a little drunk, so the whole second half of the dinner was drunk.
Fu Yunge didn't drink much. It was late when they saw them, so the eldest disciple Long Hao sent someone to take them to the guest room down the mountain. When everyone went out, there were already stars outside, and the dark crescent moon thickened in the night sky, shining brightly.
After walking on a mountain road for a while, the cool evening air rushed into Fu Yunge's nasal cavity, making her very comfortable.
The guest rooms at the bottom of the mountain are more chic bungalows. Since there are not many guests, there is a lot of free space, so one person basically lives in one building. After opening the door, there is a small patio inside, which is more quiet and comfortable.
Farewell to Dongfang Shiming, Fu Yunge closed the door, turned around and sat alone on the steps of the patio, raised his head and took a deep breath.
Looking at the dark night sky, he felt completely relaxed. Running non-stop and being exposed to so many things, he felt that time to rest was becoming increasingly rare.
There was no one in the silent courtyard except himself.
The heat from the banquet surged in his chest, and the heat of the day made him feel that he was not happy enough. Seeing that there was a simple bathroom in the house, he slowly untied his clothes and prepared to go back to the house to take a shower.
"I asked, why did you all hold back your hands then?"
Suddenly, at this moment, a clean and lovely girl's voice came from the eaves.
