After the list was finalized, each sect leader immediately made arrangements and called his disciples to come to Wu Zhenshan.
Yunzhi also immediately sent a message to Jie Wei, asking him to come to Wuzhenshan quickly.
After the meeting that all leaders need to attend is over, each team will have a separate meeting.
However, it was now Youshi. Seeing that no one in the team had time to have dinner, Shen Zijin decided to throw a big banquet and invite everyone in the team to dine at the largest restaurant nearby.
Yunzhi's brows wrinkled again unconsciously. The people here who can become the leader have all cultivated to the point where they don't need to eat. Even if they have appetite, they are very shallow.
What did Shen Zijin want to do with this?
But Yunzhi could only suppress his doubts and follow the other heads to the banquet.
The Beizhen sect leads the first team, and together with the Beizhen sect itself, there are a total of six sects in the first team.
There is only one woman in Yunzhi.
Originally, it was rare for a woman to become the leader, and it became even rarer after being assigned to each team.
Therefore, Yunzhi is very conspicuous in the first team.
Moreover, in the first team, except for the Lishan sect, the other four sects are all ranked within the top ten. Coupled with their age and seniority, the heads of those sects all regard Yunzhi as their younger sister or their junior. .
Either he would give in to her, or his words and deeds would reveal his disdain for being of a higher status than Yunzhi.
Especially during the banquet, those people even intentionally or unintentionally avoided topics that Yunzhi could join in, as if they wanted to isolate her.
This made Yunzhi very frustrated.
Yunzhi was dumbfounded as the sects looked at each of them shamelessly in order to curry favor with the Beizhen sect at the banquet.
The more Yunzhi watched, the more boring she felt. She was afraid of getting drunk and did not dare to drink, so she could only pick at the vegetables in her bowl out of boredom.
She suddenly missed Jie Wei.
If Jie Wei were here, the two of them could mock everyone present with just one look.
Thinking of this, Yunzhi became more and more looking forward to Xie Wei coming here as soon as possible.
The banquet has come to an end, and everyone has eaten and drank. Shen Zijin remained calm amidst the praises, with a smile that could not be seen as always on his face.
He seems to be wearing a mask all the time.
In the end, Yunzhi couldn't stay any longer and sneaked out when he saw that other people didn't notice him.
This restaurant is built on a mountain and usually only accepts dignitaries. You need to be introduced by an acquaintance to get a seat. But both the scenery and the food can be said to be excellent.
Especially the scenery.
This place is located halfway up the mountain, in a bamboo forest. A small stream has been artificially dug out on the edge of the bamboo forest, and the stream leads directly to a lake not far away. The gurgling stream has a clear sound, and the moonlight shines on the stream, making it even more sparkling and beautiful.
Yunzhi walked by the stream, looking at the beautiful scenery here, and only regretted why he didn't steal some wine when he came out just now.
Good wine and beautiful scenery complement each other.
Yunzhi walked all the way to the edge of the lake. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
On the edge of the lake, there is a breath of fresh water, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
When Yunzhi saw no one around, he became more playful and prepared to take off his shoes and play in the water.
Just do it.
Yunzhi took off his shoes and socks, and the coldness when he entered the water made Yunzhi sober up.
But the soft touch on the soles of her feet made Yunzhi feel very happy.
Yunzhi lifted up her skirt and prepared to walk into the water again.
At this time, a cold and deep male voice sounded behind Yunzhi, "I haven't seen Master Yun for a long time at the banquet. I didn't expect Master Yun to come here alone. Are you having fun playing with water, Master Yun?"
Yunzhi suddenly looked back.
It turned out to be Shen Zijin.
He was holding a folding fan and standing quietly not far from Yunzhi. Seeing Yunzhi turn around, he twitched his lips at her.
Yunzhi's heart sank. When did he come? Why didn't he feel his presence?
Could it be that his cultivation has far surpassed his own?
Yunzhi's expression was calm. She originally wanted to reply to him in a weird way, but after thinking about it, she had to follow him for who knows how long. She had to lower her head under the eaves. In the end, she could only show a polite fake smile, "Let Mr. Shen laugh." It’s too stuffy inside, so I came out to get some air.”
Shen Zijin walked a few steps forward, walked to the edge of the lake, and said with a smile, "You and I have known each other for many years, why are you so polite."
Yunzhi gritted his teeth and suppressed the urge to scold him, "We haven't been apart for a long time. Our statuses between Chief Shen and I are now worlds apart. How dare we offend him."
Shen Zijin chuckled lightly and called Yunzhi's nickname, with a hint of grievance in his voice, "If Zhi'er said that, it would really hurt my heart."
?
Yunzhi frowned.
Is this person flirting with me?
After thinking about it, Yunzhi felt a chill and goosebumps all over his body.
Yunzhi gritted his teeth, pretended not to understand what Shen Zijin said, and changed the topic, "Why did Mr. Shen run out of the banquet? Did he find the banquet boring?"
"Boring? Don't you think it's interesting how those people flatter me?" Shen Zijin's voice had a hint of playfulness, "On the other hand, Zhi'er, who didn't want to talk to me at all and acted like he was being forced, was more interesting than them. .”
...
enough.
Shen Zijin always knows how to disgust herself.
Yunzhi's fake smile couldn't hold on any longer, and her expression gradually turned cold, "It's really an honor for me to let Mr. Shen have fun."
Shen Zijin's expression was teasing, and he asked, "I have heard some rumors that Zhi'er is having an affair with his own disciple? It is said that Zhi'er will take him with him wherever he goes... .”
Yunzhi sneered, "It seems that Chief Shen is paying close attention to me. I have never heard of such unfounded gossip. Chief Shen already knows about it."
Shen Zijin smiled, "I just like to find some entertainment when I'm bored, but I always feel that Zhi'er is someone who can do such a thing."
Yunzhi glanced at him coldly and didn't want to answer.
But my heart is very complicated.
She really didn't expect that Shen Zijin would even know about this kind of thing and take the initiative to mention it to her.
Shen Zijin never said meaningless things. I don’t know how long he has been spying on me...
Seeing that Yunzhi didn't answer him, Shen Zijin said again, "I don't know who Zhi'er wants to arrange to help you in finding the demon this time. It can't really be the direct disciple."
...
Yunzhi frowned. What was he trying to do? Why did he mention Jie Wei again and again.
Yunzhi replied, "It's him. He belongs to the small sect of Lishan Sect. There are not enough manpower. You also know that my two most capable disciples were injured during the trial and are currently unable to participate in the search for the demon."
Shen Zijin looked at Yunzhi with interest, "I just asked casually, why did Zhier explain so much? Is it because he felt guilty?"
Yunzhi snorted coldly, "Sink in the first seat."
Then he got up and left.
Unexpectedly, Shen Zijin ducked and stood diagonally in front of Yunzhi, blocking Yunzhi's path.
Yunzhi took a decisive step to the side, trying to avoid Shen Zijin.
The next moment, Shen Zijin took Yunzhi's arm with her backhand and took her into her arms.
Yunzhi subconsciously broke away, but from the corner of his eye, he saw several leaders standing in the bamboo forest not far from the lake. They were facing here, and they were afraid that they had already seen the two of them.
At this moment, Yunzhi and Shen Zijin were very close, almost right next to each other. Their wide sleeves blocked Shen Zijin's hand. In the distance, only two people could be seen leaning together. It was not clear that Shen Zijin took the initiative. Pulling Yunzhi.
When those people saw Yunzhi looking in their direction, they quickly turned around and left.
...
Yunzhi's heart seemed to have sunk to the bottom of the lake.
She gave Shen Zijin a vicious look, he actually wanted to frame her.
There is no need to talk about a man and a woman meeting each other late at night.
The rumors are probably about to spread.
But Shen Zijin just smiled at her and slowly let go of his hand.
