Chapter 580 Dragon and Tiger Gather
The noisy banquet hall seemed to become a little quieter. I noticed something strange and raised my head with a frown.
Under the stars, Jiang Chen, the owner of Century New Garden, walked towards me with everyone watching.
"Since you're here, why don't you go sit in the private room upstairs?" With a professional smile on his face, the resentment in Jiang Chen's eyes flashed away.
"I'm just a layman, not worthy of your elegant room." After taking a sip of red wine and swallowing the Bazhen crispy duck in my mouth, I stood up and walked to Jiang Chen: "Jiang, you are blocking the road."
Anger was boiling in Jiang Chen's eyes, but he forced himself to control himself: "There are distinguished guests upstairs. Don't keep them waiting."
I walked past him, grabbed the baked Australian dragon with ginger and green onion from the table and put it on my tray: "This is the first time I have seen a lobster that is one and a half feet long. The name of this dish is good - Longmen Diangui."
Sitting back down, I didn't have any stage fright and started eating directly. This banquet was for those hidden sects, so all the top chefs were invited.
"tasty."
Hearing my comment, Jiang Chen reluctantly grinned: "Gao Jian, don't be so naive. We have invited guests upstairs. If you go up early, everyone will not be embarrassed."
"It's really embarrassing for you, the dignified young master of Jiangjin Real Estate, not to be able to hire a street adult shop owner." I swallowed the lobster meat in my mouth and didn't bother to raise my head: "But what does your embarrassment have to do with me?"
To be honest, after destroying the Sanyin Sect, the Jiang family no longer poses much of a threat in my eyes.
He, Jiang Chen, is a tall, rich and handsome person who is worthy of envy in other people's minds, but in my opinion, he is just a good-looking idiot.
The Jiang family and the Huang family sponsored this banquet at the same time, in order to build relationships with those hidden sects.
I can still understand the behavior of the Huang family. The Jiang family, backed by the Sanyin Sect, is still so flattering, which makes me speechless.
The so-called future helmsman, the young master of the Jiang family, was just thrown outside to act as a waiter to deliver messages and invite people? Is this still the superior Jiang family?
Strength determines vision. If you have a high vision, you will feel small when you look at many things, such as Jiang Chen in front of me.
"Gao Jian, it's okay if you embarrass me, but if you make those Taoist priests of the Immortal Family angry, the consequences will be serious."
I looked at Jiang Chen's serious face and laughed out loud: "Everyone envies you for your glamorous appearance, but who would know that you are just a bunch of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves. The last owner has just been robbed, and you are in a hurry." Hurry and find your next master, you Jiang family really like to be kept in captivity."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Jiang Chen's tone suddenly became sharp, as if he was poked in a painful spot by me.
He was filled with anger and finally couldn't bear it anymore. Just when he was about to say something to me, a young man wearing a black monk's robe with a gold pattern embroidered on his collar reached out and put his hand on Jiang Chen's shoulder: "Brother Jiang, be calm and don't get angry."
This man looked to be in his early twenties, but his words seemed quite sophisticated.
"Brother Wei, why are you out? You're a guest from afar, and I didn't entertain you well." The anger in Jiang Chen's eyes immediately dissipated, and a flattering smile appeared on his face.
"I just came out for a look. I wanted to see in advance what kind of person the rumored ghost mother's husband is." The Taoist priest wearing a gold-patterned robe glanced at me and said, "It's a pity. It's not as good as being famous if we meet. It's me. think too much."
He smiled calmly and acted as if he was nothing more than that, and his behavior was exactly in line with the fantasy of most people present about Taoist heavenly masters. They all whispered to each other and nodded secretly.
There was only one exception, and that was me.
I threw the half-eaten lobster on the plate and stood up: "Little Taoist priest, did you just say that you wanted to see the ghost mother's husband?"
"Yeah, but I was very disappointed after meeting him." The young Taoist priest looked a little disdainful. He probably also judged people by their appearance. I didn't pay attention to this kind of person at all. Instead, I thought about what he just said.
"These sect disciples seem to have made a mistake. Wang Yu is indeed the child of the ghost mother, but I am not Wang Yu's father. No one knows where the child's bastard father has gone. ." Wang Yu is autistic and cannot communicate. The ghost mother is invincible in the world. Even if I have ten courages, I don't dare to ask her who her husband is. Due to various coincidences, no one knows who Wang Yu's biological father is.
"Lu Chen is a survivor of the Xinhu High School siege. He should have spread the news. Now everyone thinks that Wang Yu is my child and the ghost mother is my wife. If this misunderstanding is used well, it may have miraculous effects. ."
Seeing me getting up and standing at the table in a daze, the young Taoist priest thought that I was going to go upstairs with him. After all, anyone could tell that he was one of the distinguished guests being entertained today: "You know the truth, I won't care." You were so rude just now."
He turned around and walked out for a few steps, only to realize that something was wrong. Everyone around him seemed to be looking at him: "What's wrong?"
"Is this your attitude towards inviting people?" I walked to another location with a smile on my face, grabbed the golden sand king crab, and ate it happily: "The poor mountains and rivers bring out the unruly people. What the ancients said is so true. I don't know where the mountains are. The guy who jumped out doesn't even have the most basic manners."
Many people in the banquet hall were paying attention, and most of them wiped their sweat silently after hearing my words.
The young Taoist priest who stood motionless was also so angry that he could not calm down.
"Unruly people come out of poor mountains and rivers?! Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, the Patriarch of the Three Qing Dynasties, how dare this bastard dare to insult us Qing cultivators like this?!"
"Besides, you still want to be polite? Your mouth is so full that it's hard to speak clearly. Do you have the nerve to accuse me of being rude?! Where's your upbringing? Do you still have the shame?"
The young Taoist priest's fingers were trembling. He had been practicing Qing Dynasty for many years. This must be his first time going down the mountain. After getting used to the respectful attitude of the Huang family and the Jiang family, he made a 180-degree turn when he came to me and gave him It caused a big psychological gap.
"You, you stand up for me." Before the young Taoist finished speaking, someone came out of the private room in the distance.
"Gao Jian!"
The voice was very familiar. When I saw the person, I felt a little helpless. I picked up a napkin and wiped my mouth before preparing to go upstairs.
"I knew you would definitely share your bad temper with others. Come up here." The person who came was none other than Leng Qingxuan. He was mysterious and secretive. He deliberately lowered his voice and said to me: "Chen Jiuge from Xiaozhuangguan." Daochang Chen is also here, I have checked in with you, he is a very nice person, he should be able to help you."
"Don't worry about my affairs." I know better than Leng Qingxuan what kind of person Chen Jiuge is. He knows people, faces but not hearts. This is what he is talking about.
I stood up and walked side by side to the private room with Leng Qingxuan. The young Taoist priest and Jiang Chen followed behind me with sullen expressions.
When this scene fell into the eyes of interested people, they seemed to be able to discern something. They pointed at me, and there was no trace of contempt in their eyes.
Pass through the crowd and arrive at the private room.
The waiter opened the door. Different from the hustle and bustle outside, the private room was more like a poetry meeting held by ancient literati, with soft and soothing music playing and a faint scent of sandalwood floating in the air. It looked like there were scholars talking and laughing, there were no white people coming and going, and the people sitting in the room were all literati.
When I entered the door, the ancient music in the private room stopped, and a series of sharp, gentle, or indifferent eyes swept over me.
"Come here, please." Huang Boyuan's eldest daughter Huang Lan was also in the house. She led me to a position near the door and asked me to sit next to her.
Ancient music sounded again, and everyone in the room talked. I didn't know the purpose of Huang Boyuan calling me here, and because there were people from Miao Zhen Guan, I didn't dare to use my discerning eye blatantly, so I just used my peripheral vision to check.
"Gao Jian, you are so proud. It took three people to invite you in." Huang Lan secretly smiled at me. A strong woman like her occasionally shows such a girlish smile, which is quite lethal: "Everyone who came this time They are people from the Taoist sect, so don’t think of them as charlatans, these people have real abilities.”
"Your Huang family is one of the organizers. Please tell me where they came from." Only by knowing yourself and your opponent can you win every battle. I looked at Huang Lan's seductive lips and moved my body further away: "Except for me, there is no one else in the room." Fifteen people, not counting you and your father, besides Jiang Chen and Jiang Detao, there are eleven people. From the main seat downward, they are divided into six categories according to the styles of Taoist robes. The third category sits in the north, and the third category sits in the south. You will Please introduce them to me in this order."
I said a lot in one breath. After hearing this, Huang Lan was a little surprised in her beautiful eyes: "Your observation skills are good. You are a professional after all."
She chuckled lightly and began to explain to me: "Sitting on the north side is the Shangsan Sect. The old man sitting in the middle wearing a blue robe is the person in charge of this sect alliance, Qingcheng Daozheng's junior fellow disciple - Taoist Master Xu Yan. Standing behind him is the youngest inner sect disciple in Qingcheng - Xu Wugui. It is said that this child has amazing talent. He is only seventeen years old. He doesn't even have a Taoist number, and the Taoist method has already entered the palace."
"The Taoist in blue on the left of Taoist Xu Yan is Maoshan Yin Master Leng Qingxuan, and the Taoist in Jin on the right is Miaozhen Tianshi Lu Chen. These three sects are all famous Chinese sects and belong to the upper three sects."
"The six people sitting in the south also have a good background. The four monks on the left wearing black robes with gold patterns on their collars and cuffs are from the Quanzhen Jinshan Sect. They are named Wei Wenming, Wei Liangming, Wei Gongming, and Wei Jianming. They are all They are orphans adopted by the Jinshan Sect. They grew up together and have a very good relationship. Their names also come from the Jinshan Sect's general outline of mind cultivation: gentle, respectful, thrifty, tolerant, charitable and tolerant."
I nodded lightly and glanced at the young Taoist priest again. He was Wei Jianming, the youngest of the four.
"Sitting in the middle of the south is Lu Jingxiu, the mountain guard of the Lingbao sect. This man is the same generation as Taoist Xu Yan. He is usually taciturn, but he is very senior."
"Speaking of which, the last one is the most mysterious among them all." Huang Lan secretly pointed in that direction: "This Taoist priest comes from Xiaozhuangguan and is recognized as the number one disciple of his generation. It's strange that he There is no Taoist name, I only know that others call him Chen Jiuge..."
