Li Yue devoured the dishes on the table, his mouth full of oil. After hearing Yang Qiufei's words, he seemed not to understand. He turned around to ask Gongsun Yao, only to find that Gongsun Yao was not beside him. He looked around and muttered. He muttered: "Apprentice... Gongsun Yao... where did he go to play again? Ah Mao, A Hua, Xiao Tian... why are they all missing? When you meet the hall master, remember to tell the master that Uncle Yang wants me to beat him to death... …”
"They are the head of the main hall and the deputy head of the main hall." Yang Qiufei reminded.
Li Yue nodded repeatedly, looking around and talking to Gongsun Yao and his few child disciples, although they were not with Li Yue at this time.
Seeing that Yang Qiufei was determined to this point, everyone couldn't speak out even though he still had a mountain of articles to persuade him to enter. Everyone looked at each other in embarrassment, and some people smoothed things over and said, "We'll talk about these things later." , eat first, drink first!”
"Yes, yes! Let's eat first, drink first, and watch the marriage competition first!" The guests were shouting and cheering.
There is an empty arena in the middle of the banquet hall, which is the stage prepared for tonight's event. Since the Divine Weapon Competition has been suspended due to several turmoils and wars in Dayang Mansion, pure arena fighting is too boring and bloody. If Li Yue saw it, he would be aroused to murderous intent. , rushing to the stage to fight, that would be troublesome.
So these days there are no banquet activities every day. Everyone is already bored and just want to see a good show.
So an old man in the bandit-suppression team proposed a contest to recruit a bride. This old man had a daughter who was also in the bandit-suppression team. She was nearly 30 years old, but she was a widower, which made the old man quite worried.
When everyone heard that this daughter was also a strong bandit killer and not a young girl, they just thought she was a fierce woman who could punch a lion and step on a tiger, so they were not very interested in the marriage proposal.
But when the old man invited his daughter, everyone was shocked to see that although the girl was not extremely beautiful, she was elegant and gentle. She also knew how to heal wounds. She accompanied the bandits and was responsible for treating wounded soldiers.
Everyone was making a fuss and clamoring for a martial arts competition. Unexpectedly, more and more people joined in the commotion. Thousands of guests in the Dayang Mansion wanted to see this martial arts competition, and there were other women among them who were also instigating it. Or perhaps their parents wanted to join in the fun and gamble, so they decided to compete in a martial arts competition to find a bride. There were about ten girls.
However, although the name of the activity is "Recruiting a Marriage", only two or three of the dozen or so women are actually looking for husbands. The rest are mostly recruiting for "dining for two", "talking under the tree", "gazing at the moon on the water-viewing pavilion", etc.
Wei Jing's table was also very lively. A group of old friends were sitting around the table. A few days ago, after everyone learned that Fan Jun resigned from the post of patrol leader, they also resigned from the post of police officer. They had nothing to do and were just ordinary guests. .
Among these men, except for Fan Jun, who was a default partner, and Wei Jing, who had a partner he would never admit to, the rest were all bachelors. When they heard about the competition to find a bride, they were also very excited, and they were all gearing up. They promised to attend this hero meeting. , invite other old friends to have a wedding drink.
Everyone elected a host, who went on stage and shouted at the top of his lungs, shouting and making noise for a long time. The women who had originally promised to go on stage to recruit brides were shy and changed their minds, causing a large number of men below to jump.
"Can I participate?" A woman wearing a blue dress quietly walked to the stage and said to the stage.
The host bent down to look at her, stepped back in fright, pointed at her and murmured: "You...you..."
When the guests saw the host's reaction, they all thought that this girl must be disgusting. Even after they got on the stage, not many people came to the stage to compete, so their interest waned. However, when they saw the girl, they walked around to a high chair next to the ring. As he slowly took his seat, the guests who were close to him took a clear look. Some were stunned and speechless, and some stood up immediately, wanting to go on stage and compete immediately.
Wei Zhongyun sat down on the elevated chair facing the ring. She smiled lightly, her eyes slightly red.
She knew that such a crude method of putting Gongsun Yao into the sword box might not be able to successfully deal with them, but if Gongsun Yao returned to Dayang Mansion and found that she was already married, the rice was boiled, and the wood was already a boat, maybe Then you will be enlightened.
"Wow, she is the daughter of the Wei family!"
"Where's Mr. David?"
"Wei Changqing left with his students in the evening."
There was a great commotion among the guests. Yang Qiufei, Wei Wen and others above the chairman were also astonished. Wei Jing even jumped up, opened his mouth wide and gestured with his hands, shouting: "What's going on? Why is my cousin sitting there? Is she looking for a bride?"
"Slow down, take your time, don't rush, don't rush, let me tell you the rules first. Do you want to fight or not?" The host raised his foot and kicked the stinky guys who were fighting to get on stage.
When a group of guests saw that the first woman who came to court for marriage was not only a gentle and pleasant girl, but also her father was a famous swordsmith who came to the lake to make swords. She had a close relationship with Chuangtianmen and her conditions were first-rate in all aspects. At this time, thousands of guests There was a lot of commotion, everyone wanted to go on stage and try.
When Wei Zhongyun saw this scene, he couldn't help but tremble slightly, wondering who would win in the end.
When she thought that tonight she would decide who her lifelong partner would be, and it would be a strange man, she felt infinite fear in her heart.
But when the bright smiling face of Wei Zhiqian a few years ago appeared in her mind, the fear was reduced a bit. When she realized this not long ago, she remembered that she had not seen her sister for who knows how long. Such a pure and brilliant smile.
"Miss Wei..." The host stood at the edge of the ring and asked Wei Zhongyun who was sitting on a high chair: "First of all, let's make it clear whether you want to invite 'a meal', or 'watch the moon and eat snacks', or Is it the 'Tongtian River Watching Water' move?"
"I want to find a husband." Wei Zhongyun said with a smile.
"Huh?" The host was so surprised that he couldn't move. He turned around and took a closer look at the end of the main table. Wei Changqing was not in the Dayang Mansion at this time. If something went wrong, it would be troublesome. He asked three more times, and Wei Zhongyun's answer remained the same: "I want to find a husband."
The host then told what Wei Zhongyun wanted to do, and another round of applause erupted in the banquet hall.
The host walked around the stage and introduced the rules of the arena as he walked: "Those who want to fight will come up together. No matter how many people are crowded on the stage, after the competition starts, they will fight against each other. It's okay to fight more than one. Anyway, the last one Those who stand on the stage will get a 'one'."
"Getting one?" All the guests asked in confusion: "What does getting one mean?"
"It means winning one game." The host said: "As long as the last man standing on the stage in three consecutive games is the winner."
Some people began to shout: "What kind of rules are these, so complicated?" Some people retorted: "It's complicated. Isn't it just that if you win three games in a row, you will get a beautiful girl? This is called complicated. Are you pretending to be stupid?"
"There is also another rule that everyone should remember. Those who have been knocked off the stage cannot come back, otherwise they will not be able to finish it even if they are beaten for a year -" the host explained the rules clearly, stood up and left the stage, and shouted in the audience: " I want to fight to get on stage!"
However, there were far fewer people on stage than expected. A man from the east stepped out and climbed onto the stage, two men from the west also stepped onto the stage, and then two more people came on stage, making a total of five.
It turns out that since everyone needs to win three games in a row to be considered a victory, there is no need to worry, let’s take a look at the situation first.
"How can this happen?" Wei Jing roared, waving his hands repeatedly, shouting to Wei Zhongyun: "Cousin, are you drunk? Where is Gongsun Yao?"
Wei Jing turned around and shouted: "Find Gongsun Yao quickly!" Shui Bantian, Chen Kuai and others who were more enthusiastic immediately got up and went to look for Gongsun Yao who had been put into the sword box and carried away not long ago.
After the host gave the order, the five people immediately started fighting. Since this wedding ring was more of a reward after all, everyone started to compete half-heartedly, and soon the winner was determined. The first The guy who won the game was tall and muscular.
Wei Zhongyun originally closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes, she saw this fierce man. She was shocked and her thoughts were racing. She almost thought that this man was her husband. She couldn't accept it for a moment and closed her eyes again.
"Have you found Gongsun Yao?" Wei Jing looked at Shui Bantian and Chen Kuai who ran back to report. They shook their heads and said, "There is no one in the room. I don't know where they went."
"Keep looking until you find it!" Wei Jing shouted.
"You come and help me find him, so I can open up a mouth!" Shui cursed for a long time.
Wei Jing shook his head repeatedly and said, "I can't leave, I have to find a way here."
"Let me help you find him, too." Taoist Wang breathed out and stood up to help find Gongsun Yao. Lao Xu, Aunt Zhang, and Yu Erzui also got up and left the table to help.
