Chapter 49: The Birthday Banquet (2)
"It's very lively!" A cold-faced young man walked in from outside the courtyard gate and walked straight into the middle of the crowd, "Do you need me to let people tear down the courtyard wall so that the courtyard next door can also be seen, or I will invite the old lady to watch you two destroy his old man's birthday banquet." ”
His words seemed to inject a cold current into the boiling yard, and suddenly quieted the noisy yard.
Hearing his words, Shi Yan and Lu Ying, who were about to compete, glanced at each other awkwardly, and in the end, it was Lu Ying who spoke first.
"That...... Misunderstanding, the two of us didn't want to do it, we just verified each other's moves, you said yes, Shi Yan. After speaking, Lu Ying secretly glanced at Shi Yan opposite.
Shi Yan reacted immediately, and hurriedly agreed: "Yes, yes, we just verified the moves, and we didn't do anything, let alone destroy Old Lady Li's birthday banquet." ”
Although Mrs. Li is not the head of the Li family, she can destroy the big hat of the other party's birthday banquet, and neither of them can afford to bring it, and no one dares to bring it.
"Hmph! The cold-faced young man snorted coldly, and turned his cold gaze to sweep the crowd around him, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, today is a major event for our Li family, who dares to make trouble at the birthday banquet, don't blame me for being unkind." ”
Those who were glancing at him retreated, or lowered their heads to avoid the gaze.
"Li Gan, what you said, we are all here to celebrate Old Lady Li's birthday, how can we make trouble!" Lu Ying's face was full of smiles.
As soon as the words fell, someone in the surrounding crowd immediately chimed in.
"Yes, yes, we followed the elders in the family to pay homage to Mrs. Li, and wished him the happiness of the old man like the East China Sea and his longevity than Nanshan. As for the destruction of his old man's birthday feast, it is purely unwarranted."
"That's right, whoever dares to block Old Lady Li today, without your Li family's action, we will clean up that person. ”
"Yes, whoever dares to make trouble at the birthday banquet will offend all the families in our Tiancheng County. ”
......
Disorganized words came out of the crowd, chaotic like a noisy market, but everyone said the same thing, to ensure that no one would make trouble at the birthday banquet, and when it came to it, they simply began to compliment Li Ganlai.
Seeing that Shi Yan and Lu Ying couldn't fight, Long Zun was not interested in listening to the flattery of a group of people, especially the two members of his own family who came from the Long family with him, and they couldn't wait to lick Li Gan's toes.
All kinds of flattering words kept coming from his ears, and it made him sick to his stomach, and he almost vomited out the overnight meal.
Exiting the crowd, Long Zun returned to the hall at the back of the courtyard, and sat down at a random table near the door.
At this time, in addition to him, there were also two groups of people sitting around the two tables in the hall.
Although there were not many of them, they sat separately around different tables on the left and right sides of the hall, and only two or three people sat at each table, and they were not seen to communicate with the others around them.
Long Zun had already learned the identities of the two groups of people sitting inside from the mouths of the other two Long family disciples, namely the Zhao family and the Chen family of Tiancheng County.
Like the Li family, these people are also one of the three major cultivator families in Tiancheng County, and they all have a Great Martial Master Realm cultivator in their family.
As one of the three great martial arts masters in Tiancheng County, Old Lady Li, his birthday banquet Zhao family and Chen family will naturally send people to participate, but they have their own pride, unlike other small families, they need to go to the Li family.
Li Gan is a disciple of the Li family who is focused on cultivating by the younger generation of the Li family, and he is very dissatisfied with the arrangement to receive the young children of various families, so he has been cold-faced since he came to the courtyard.
In a bad mood, he naturally didn't have a good face for Shi Yan and Lu Ying, the two people who were preparing to compete, and the constant compliments from the crowd behind him slowly made him proud, and he began to be particularly resistant to the reception of this job.
While he was enjoying the stammering and flattery of the crowd around him, he noticed a discordant scene out of the corner of his eye.
A young man in a conspicuous place in the crowd, seeing his arrival, turned around and withdrew from the crowd without saying a word, and returned to the hall behind, so that the smugness he had just risen was replaced by a haze in a blink of an eye, and his face immediately turned cold.
Long Zun, who was sitting on the seat, didn't expect that such a trivial matter as he left the crowd and returned to the hall would make Li Gan resentful, and he really responded to that sentence, the leader of the person who gave the gift may not remember, but the leader will definitely remember the person who does not send it.
Long Zun, who was at a loss to know all this, sat on the seat next to the table, bored and lazy playing with the cup, watching the cup turn in a circle in his hand, and the wine inside formed a small whirlpool.
Li Gan's good mood that had just risen was because Long Zun disappeared again, and he naturally lost interest in the flattery and hugging his thighs in the surrounding crowd, and directly pushed away the crowd and walked out of it and came to the hall behind the courtyard.
As he passed by Long Zun, he glared at Long Zun fiercely, then raised his head and walked towards the table at the very back of the hall.
Long Zun, who was playing with the wine glass, naturally saw Li Gan's glare, and felt inexplicable in his heart, thinking that Li Gan's eyes were naturally like that, and everyone looked like a star.
As soon as Li Gan left, the rest of the people in the courtyard also dispersed and returned to the hall one after another, making the originally silent hall full of people.
As soon as most of the people entered the hall, they became reserved and found an empty seat to sit down, but there were still a few people who were unwilling to give up the opportunity to tie up with Li Gan, and pursued them forward, including the other two young people of the Long family who came with Long Zun.
Although the children of each family in the hall were very reserved, the seats were as close as possible to the children of the three major families, so the table where Long Zun was located was the farthest away from the people of the three major families and close to the door, and the seven or eight seats were mostly free, and only three people were seated.
In addition to Long Zun, the other two people sitting next to the table were a young man named Shi Yan and another child of the Shi family.
The days that Long Zun became a cultivator were numbered, and he basically had little contact with the disciples of other families, so Shi Yan naturally wouldn't know him.
The two of them were eating the various fruits on the table while talking in a whisper, while Long Zun was still bored fiddling with the wine glass in his hand.
The other two young men of the Long family walked back from Li Gan's table, and when they saw their disgraced appearances, Long Zun sneered, and he didn't have to guess to know that they had hit a wall from Li Gan.
The two of them came to the table of Long Zun, found two empty seats, sat down on one ass, and one of them grabbed the wine glass on the table, and drank the wine in the cup with a big gulp.
The other person turned his head to look at Long Zun, and said dissatisfiedly: "Long Zun, look at the place you picked, everyone sits in it, so that you have a chance to get close to the people of the three major families, and look at you again, like a janitor." ”
"That is, the two of us are going to have a relationship with the people of the three major families for the sake of the Long family, looking at you, only caring about eating and drinking by ourselves, I knew that the elder of the Long Li clan should not have brought you here. ”
