Dusk is sinking in the west, and the lights are gradually rising.
Qi Yunrong had been sitting there for a few quarters of an hour when there was a knock on the door.
When he came out of the room, he happened to see Shao Yansheng handing a piece of yellow paper to Chu Zhuang, and earnestly warned: "There are several spiritual materials that require special methods to ensure that the spirituality is not lost. The poor Taoist has already marked it. When collecting it, Don’t forget this place, otherwise the formation will be defective and you will have to tear it down and rebuild it if you want to repair it, which will be extremely time-consuming and laborious.”
When Chu Zhuang heard his serious tone, he immediately calmed down and said firmly: "Dear guest, don't worry, I will supervise the actions of my subordinates carefully, and there will never be any problems."
This was the first time in Shao Yan's life that he went out on his own. After hearing this, he still gave a few instructions before he calmed down a little.
At this time, the two of them saw Qi Yunrong approaching. Chu Zhuang quickly counted the time, looked at the sky, and said with a smile: "It seems that the servants in the mansion have called the distinguished guest to get up."
He carefully folded up the yellow paper in his hand and put it away, guided the way with his hand, pointed to Chi Xinting and said: "The master has already prepared a banquet for the two of you to receive the wind and wash away the dust. Now that the time is approaching, I would like to ask the two of you to take a seat." yes."
Shao Yansheng nodded slightly in agreement, and the two of them followed Chu Zhuang to Chixin Pavilion. Qi Yunrong followed silently and looked calmly towards the waterside pavilion in the west of the pool.
I saw that the place had been lit with lights, and it was very bright and bright. A few auras were floating in it. Due to the barrier of the formation, I couldn't count the exact number of people.
She closed her eyes and came back, and Chi Xinting was already in front of her.
This is an octagonal pavilion, surrounded by water on four sides and connected by redwood railings, extending in all directions. The top of the pavilion is covered with glazed tiles, the eaves are high, and various kinds of lucky animals are carved, all of which have round bellies and are cute and naive. Looking at the carved beams and painted buildings from below, the curtains are as light as nothing, and the hanging rings and jingling bells move with the evening breeze above the pool.
The water around the pool is clear and green, with lotus and reeds planted in it, swaying. From a distance, there are rockeries and flowing water, and springs gush. When viewing this scene at dusk, there is even sunset, and the sky is purple and gold.
Even though Qi Yunrong was not someone who cared about unexpected things, he sighed in his heart at this time, the master must have put a lot of effort into this.
"The two kids are here!"
Hearty laughter arrived first, and a tall figure lifted the curtain. Chu Zhenqun greeted them as if they were ecstatic, and personally led Qi Yunrong and Qi Yunrong into the banquet and took their seats.
There are two large tables and one small table in the pavilion. There is a large table facing south, which is the main seat. Half of the two seats above it are empty because Chu Zhenqun stood up to welcome people, and the other half is occupied by a palace-dressed beauty. The woman has red lips, white teeth and white cheeks like snow, and a pair of long eyebrows flying into her temples, full of flamboyant beauty.
There is also a large table to the west and east, which is set up for guests. As for the small table to the east, there is a thin young man with a powdered face sitting alone.
After Qi Yunrong asked the maid, he now had confidence in the people in the pavilion, but he still listened to Chu Zhenqun's introduction:
"This is a clumsy thorn."
The woman in palace clothes stood up Yingying, her phoenix eyes were sharp, she glanced at the two of them gently, and then she said with a toothy smile: "I have heard about the great reputation of the sect for a long time, and all the disciples under the sect are geniuses. I am lucky enough to meet them today, and they are indeed worthy of their reputation. "
Qi Yunrong was shocked. Chu Zhenqun, Mrs. Xuxian, was hardly mentioned outside. Unexpectedly, she was a Fenxuan monk with a very powerful aura, not inferior to Chu Zhenqun!
Xu Shanglan was also sizing up these two people.
Gu'an Shao Yansheng had already heard from her husband that Liang Mianjin, a disciple of the Hunde Formation Sect, was a direct descendant of Liang Zhenren. He himself was not very important, but Liang Mianjin who was behind him had to be treated with caution.
Chu Zhenqun got acquainted with Chu Zhenqun early. At that time, Liang Mianjin was not overly occult. The two were friends of equals, and they were not close. They only communicated occasionally. Over time, Chu Zhenqun concentrated on running the business in Dingxian City and neglected to make friends with him. When Liang Mianjin After successfully achieving the position of real person, the two of them were already quite unfamiliar.
Now he is deliberately trying to please his disciple Shao Yansheng, but he is just looking for an opportunity to make amends with the relationship.
And the woman Shao Yansheng brought...
Xu Shanglan is not an ordinary casual cultivator. She grew up in the inner city since she was a child. Her mother was particularly good at divination and numerology, and she even became a guest at the True Infant Monk's table because of it. Her vision and knowledge are extraordinary. Although she has never learned anything from her mother, she Under the influence of his ears and eyes, his ability to understand people is still much better than that of Chu Zhenqun.
At a glance, it can be seen that Qi Yunrong's energy and spirit are far superior to Shao Yansheng!
This is definitely not because his cultivation level is higher than the latter. Xu Shanglan is well versed in his mother's teachings, and he can see that the eyes of the woman in front of him are shining with divine light, and there is a dazzling light between her eyebrows. At first glance, she is extremely talented, and she has an immortal behind her. Only a great sect can show such aura.
Shao Yansheng was inferior to her. Apart from his own qualifications, it also meant that the position and strength of his mentor behind him was even greater than that of Liang Mianjin!
Xu Shanglan rolled his eyes, and his smile became more sincere.
But Chu Zhenqun didn't know it at all. He raised his hand and said: "Quin Zi has admired the genius of the sect since he was a child. If I bring him here today, it will be a great blessing if I can get some advice from these two little friends."
The young man quickly stood up from his seat. He was not as arrogant as Qi Yunrong and the other two people had heard from the servants. He bowed his hands politely and said, "I, Xu Man, have met two distinguished guests."
His behavior made Qi Yunrong's disciples disgusted, but Shao Yansheng quickly accepted the greeting and said "I don't dare".
Then he took out a palm-sized array plate from his arms and handed it to Xu Man: "This is our first meeting, so I didn't prepare any generous gifts. This was made by my master in his spare time. It contains a small rock formation for self-defense." I hope you don’t dislike it for its function.”
Hearing that it was a formation plate made by Liang Mianjin, Chu Zhenqun immediately felt happy and said on behalf of Xu Man: "How dare you reject such a generous gift? Man'er, why don't you thank the guest quickly?"
Xu Man thanked him and took the formation plate away.
The venue was immediately filled with a harmonious atmosphere, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
Chu Zhenqun chatted with Shao Yansheng from time to time at the table. Perhaps he noticed that Qi Yunrong had a cold temperament, so even if he wanted to talk to her, he had nothing to say.
Xu Shanglan stood up gracefully, looked at her expression, and said with a smile: "You see Qi Xiaoyou doesn't move his chopsticks very much, but the food and wine at the table are not to your liking? Linfang is a bit remote after all, not as prosperous as the inner city... Xiaoyou, you can try it That Nine Ginseng Spirit Wine is brewed in my mother’s house, and it is quite famous in the inner city.”
Suddenly being picked up by someone, Qi Yunrong's expression brightened. He first praised the delicacies on the table, and then followed his words and said, "...is Madam's family from the inner city?"
The corners of Xu Shanglan's lips curled up, and he nodded slightly: "I still have some wealth, I just grew up in the inner city, but I can't compare with the monks of the sect."
She looked at Qi Yunrong, as if the hook bait he threw was bitten by a fish, and she became more and more happy and satisfied. Without waiting for the other party's reply, she directly invited him: "Since this is the first time for Qi Xiaoyou to come here, he must have never been inside." City, it just so happens that my Chu Mansion caravan is about to enter the inner city for shopping, little friend, would you like to go with us?"
