Chapter 142: During the banquet (3)
The disciple said, "Two fellow Taoists are here to come down."
As he said that, he led Gu Xiu and the others forward, and then another disciple led the people behind him to come.
The disciple led Gu Xiu and his wife into a pavilion covered by a tall god mulberry tree. Gu Xiu saw that there were two seats empty on the table.
Therefore, the reason why there is a divine tree covering it is that the divine breath is thicker than other places.
Gu Xuan leaned into Gu Xiu's ear and said, "We are really lucky."
That's right? They have low cultivation, poor strength, and no capable elders, and can still be assigned to such a good place. It's purely because they happen to be two of them, and there were only two seats on this table, so the disciples led the two of them to come over.
As soon as he entered the pavilion, he placed the two of them down, and the disciples led the way left.
Gu Xuan is a familiar person. Although she is quite unwilling to let go of her because she first entered the tall and high-end place in Shangcheng City Lord's Mansion, her mentality has almost adjusted along the way.
As soon as she sat down, she asked a mid-stage female cultivator next to her, "Fellow Taoist, I wonder how long the birthday party has started? We have been queuing outside for too long, and it has delayed the opening."
In fact, Gu Xuan was a little worried after asking this. It would be fine if she ignored her. At most, she would be a little embarrassed, and she was afraid that she would be sarcastic again. At that time, would she bear it or tolerate it? She seemed to be able to bear it in such an occasion, but she was always unwilling to accept it.
Fortunately, Gu Xuan's worries were not born.
The female cultivator next to her quickly answered her, "The birthday party has not begun yet. I heard that it will officially start when the Chen Dynasty is about to start. The singing and dancing on the stage are not the opening dance, but just to prevent the people from entering the mansion from being bored. This is what it is."
"So that's it. In this way, the City Lord's Mansion has been considerate quite carefully. Thank you for your advice." Gu Xuan said hurriedly, and asked her again, "I don't know what my friend calls her. Gu Xuan, this is my eighth sister Gu Xiu."
The female cultivator nodded to Gu Xiu, and then said, "I am Xiao Zhongyun, who is a monk in Fengshan City, and the two fellow Taoists seem to be cultivators from other places?"
Gu Xiu and the other two in Fengshan City have never heard of it. They must not be one of the top ten cities. In this way, they are either mid-city or small cities.
Gu Xuan had already replied, "Well, we are monks in Xianshui City."
After a few words, I became familiar with the two things in advance.
At this table, except for Zhong Yun who talked to them, although the other seven people were all monks in the Condensation Stage, they just looked at their attitude and familiarity. They were either classmates or companions who had been together for a while.
However, they were not as arrogant as the female cultivator she met when she first entered the city lord's mansion. She greeted each other and said nothing more. However, Zhong Yun seemed to be here alone, but she was chatting with Gu Xuan.
After a while, many people came to the area where they were staying, including those in the Condensation Period and those in the Dispersed God Period, but not in the True God Period. Zhong Yun said: "Since you are the True God Period, no matter where you are, you can enter the inner city to use a banquet by relying solely on your own cultivation."
While speaking, a disciple who was dressed up happily gave various desserts. The desserts were in various shapes, colors, shapes and even fragrances, which seemed to be the same as real flowers. More importantly, as soon as these desserts were served, everyone could detect the divine breath contained in them, which was even richer than ordinary monster meat.
No one was polite at this time, so they all started to have their own snacks.
Gu Xiu had just solved a piece of osmanthus cake when he heard a noise not far away.
It turned out that it was one of the monks at one of the tables. They started arguing in order to compete for snacks, and some people even had their magic weapons.
But before they fought, a disciple of the City Lord's Mansion in the late stage of Ningxi came to mediate. I don't know what he said. All the monks at that table lowered their heads, and some people were talking to the City Lord's Mansion with earnest expressions. In less than a moment, a farce of dispute subsided.
"Sixth Sister, I saw the Ninth Sister. She sat with that fellow Taoist Shi. There were several disciples from the Lord of the Rock City Mansion on that table."
When Gu Xiu was just attracted by the dispute, he glanced at Gu Yue and his group not far away from the table.
"Nine Sister?" Gu Xuan was a little surprised, "Didn't she come with the Lord of Rock City? How could she sit here? Could it be that the one who was sitting in the long-eared carriage we saw before was not the Lord of Rock City?"
Gu Xuan said, her eyes already looked at Gu Yue along Gu Xiu's prompt.
It was indeed Gu Yue, Shi Meilan, and several other disciples from the Lord of the Rock City Mansion.
"Why are the fourth brother not here?" Gu Xuan said in confusion.
Gu Xiu said: "The fourth brother has good qualifications, so he must have been brought into the inner city by the Lord of Yancheng."
Gu Xuan nodded, "You said this, there is a possibility. Eighth Sister, have you noticed it? Ninth Sister and that fellow Taoist Shi, their faces were ugly. It must be because they were sulking because they could not follow them into the inner city."
Gu Xuan was quite gloating about this.
As she said that, she said with some confusion: "Actually, it is understandable that the fourth brother can come to Shangcheng with the Lord of Yancheng. After all, even Yancheng, there should be few people with natural divine veins. It is not surprising that the elders of the Lord of Yancheng's Mansion are valued by the elders of the Lord of Yancheng's Mansion with the fourth brother's qualifications. However, Ninth Sister, she has an ordinary qualification and has only been in the Lord of Yancheng's Mansion for only two or three years. It seems very strange that she can follow Shangcheng this time."
"My ninth sister is smart, and smart people always have many ways to achieve their wishes." Gu Xiu said lightly.
At this time, Zhong Yun reminded the two: "The birthday party seems to have begun."
Gu Xiu and Gu Xuan hurriedly looked at the cloud platform above, and saw that the fairy who was dancing gracefully on the stage was gone, and replaced by a big word "Tao". The word "Tao" went from blur to clear, and then from clear to blur, the rapid change seemed to be just a blink of an eye.
Then, the word "Tao" generates two, two generates three, three lives and thousands of Taos, and the endless "Tao" is reflected in everyone's eyes and hearts.
Gu Xiu felt that his heart was hit hard, as if something was about to break out of the ground. When the last golden word "Tao" hit her eyes, Gu Xiu felt that she had been sublimated, which was a sublimation of her mood. She had always had a layer of mist before, and it became clear at this time.
At this moment, the entire Shangcheng City Lord’s Mansion, the outer and inner cities can be heard.
In the four major squares outside the city lord's mansion, although there was a scene-leaving array to put this scene on the mansion gate in front of the square, it was still a little short.
A monk with good understanding naturally also benefited a lot from it, but more monks with ordinary understanding were monks with good understanding. They only felt that this scene was shocking and did not get any other insights from it.
