Chapter 54: Provocation
"Master, the lord of the Million-Dollar Merchant Castle sent someone to send an invitation, saying that he was going to hold a banquet, and invited your old man to enjoy his face. A tall and tall fat boy walked into the Great Elder Hall and said respectfully to Sun Changsheng.
"Hmm...... Isn't this old boy already seriously ill, what kind of banquet is he organizing?" Sun Changsheng picked up a bowl of tea and blew it gently.
"The invitation said that it was because the young son of Shangbao Lone Star had returned, so Tibao mainly held a banquet to celebrate, and everyone in the town was invited, you are the number one person in the town, of course, you are indispensable, master. The fat boy in the hall said with a flattering smile.
"What? Lone Star is back? You read that right?" Sun Changsheng frowned, and the tea almost spilled on the ground.
"Master, what's wrong with you? The fat boy touched his head and said very puzzledly.
"Hmph, three fat man, go and call Sun Jian to me, and ask him to find me in the study!" Sun Changsheng slammed the teacup on the table, looking very angry.
"Yes, yes, I'll do it right away. Frightened, the fat boy ran out quickly.
After the three fat men ran out, they were out of breath and didn't dare to stop, and ran directly to Sun Jian's residence.
"Eldest prince, the master has something urgent for me to call you. The three fat men shouted outside the door.
"What's the matter, damn, I've just finished practicing and I'm ready to take a bath!" Sun Jian said very unhappily.
"Eldest prince, you better hurry up, the master seems to be very unhappy. ”
"Alright, you go back first, I'll go right away. ”
"Okay, then I'll go back to my life first, and the eldest prince should hurry up. ”
After speaking, the three fat men rushed to the Great Elder Hall without stopping, and then entered the study.
"Master, I've already been to the eldest prince, and he said to come over immediately. The three fat men bowed down and said.
"This kid, you don't get me into trouble, you go down first. ”
"Yes. Seeing that Sun Changsheng's face was wrong, the three fat men gently stepped on and went out.
After a while, Sun Jian came to the study.
"Father, why are you in such a hurry to find me?" Seeing that Sun Changsheng's face was wrong, Sun Jian asked softly.
"Hmph, what you told me last time that you killed Lone Star by accident and then threw him into the Spirit River, and said that he would definitely die, is it true?"
"Yes, my father won't pursue this matter, right? Lone Star has been silent for more than half a month, and Shangbao has no intention of pursuing it, so I don't think there's a problem. ”
"Hmph, you can see this for yourself. Sun Changsheng slapped the table, and an invitation on the table flew towards Sun Jian.
"This is ......" Sun Jian took the invitation, not knowing why Sun Changsheng moved.
"Ah...... This...... This is impossible, at that time, Lone Star was severely injured by me, and he was already dying, and he was thrown into the Spirit River, and he would definitely die. Sun Jian gritted his teeth and said excitedly.
"What's the use of saying this, it doesn't seem to be an accident, it's your deliberate attempt to kill someone. Sun Changsheng was so shrewd, he heard the mystery from Sun Jian's words.
"Father, I ......" Sun Jian was at a loss for a moment.
"Forget it, I'm not trying to hold you accountable, but now that the invitation has arrived, you can go to the banquet with me to see what the merchant castle is doing. ”
"Father, but, could this be a trap for Shangbao?" Looking at the content on the invitation, Sun Jian felt a little worried in his heart.
"Hahaha, trap, in the three towns in the southwest, there is no place where I Sun Changsheng dare not go, even if it is a trap, just a commercial castle, what are you afraid of it?" Sun Changsheng glanced at Sun Jian of Nuo Nuo with disdain, and said coldly.
"Yes, the father is right, and the child obeys. Sun Jian had no choice but to bow his head and admit his mistake.
In the evening, the million-dollar merchant fort is brightly lit, as bright as day, and firecrackers are ringing in unison, which is very lively.
At the gate, Ti Million personally greeted the guests, and he was very excited.
"Hey, the Lord of Tibao is full of energy, the Shangbao is full of joy, and the young man has returned safely, which is really gratifying. Mayor Zhi Sanping smiled and bowed.
"Haha, Mayor Zhi came in person, and I missed the distance, please come inside. "Ti million hurried forward to greet him.
"Haha, the castle lord is polite. With that, Zhi Sanping took Zhi Gang into the seat.
At this time, Lan Zaixi of Dianwutang came from afar with his daughter Lan Yancui and senior sect leader Lin Erhu.
"Ouch, Elder Lan, Sect Lin is here, the merchant castle is really shining, please inside. Ti Million smiled and stepped forward to salute.
"Lord Tibao is gracious. Lan Zaixi replied.
"Uncle Ti, is Lone Star really coming back, and where is he now?" asked Lan Yancui eagerly.
"Haha, thank you Miss Lan for your concern, Xiao'er is indeed back, please come in for a while. ”
"That's great. Lan Yancui said happily.
With the arrival of the guests one by one, Ti Million saw that it was almost over, but Sun Changsheng had not yet arrived, thinking that it was because of the festival between Lone Star and Sun Jian, maybe he would not come, so he turned around and prepared to go back to the compound.
"Lord Tibao, are you going to go back? It seems that you are very unwelcome to my Sun family. Suddenly, Sun Changsheng's mocking voice came from afar.
"Yo, Elder Sun, where are you, I thought you were busy with official business and wouldn't come. Please, please. Ti Million felt Sun Changsheng's dissatisfaction, and hurriedly went up to play the round.
"Ha, don't dare, what official business can I have, it's just that the eastern suburbs camp gives face, and let me preside over one or two here. Sun Changsheng understated and pretended to be a gesture.
"Haha, Elder Sun is still invited in, the banquet has already been prepared. Mention a million bowed down to invite in, Sun Changsheng entered the courtyard without looking, and Sun Jian and the three fat men behind him also swaggered into the courtyard.
Everyone sat down, and at this time, Ti Million stepped onto the presiding stage.
"Thanks to the blessing of God, my son Lone Star returned safely, during this time, everyone has tried their best to help for the business of Shangbao, and I want someone to represent Shangbao, thank you. After mentioning a million, he bowed to everyone.
"Tibao's words are serious, and we haven't helped much, but it's still a young man. Zhi Sanping said with a smile.
"Yes, yes. Everyone agreed.
"Haha, everyone is humble, Lone Star, come up, I want to thank you all this time. Ti Million waved his hand at Lone Star.
Although he didn't like such troublesome things, Lone Star slowly stepped onto the stage.
"Thank you for your concern, and now you are back safely, thank you very much. After speaking, Lone Star also bowed to everyone.
"Sure enough, it's him!How is it possible?" Sun Jian in the audience saw the most disgusted figure in his heart standing on the stage, his clenched teeth gurgling.
"Sun Jian's angry expression, could it be that Lone Star's disappearance really has something to do with him?" Lan Yancui glanced at Sun Jian and thought secretly in his heart.
"Okay, today is the big day for the return of the Lone Star Son of Shangbao, I propose, how about everyone toast the Lord of the Fort together?" Zhi Sanping began to find a sense of existence again, and raised his glass to everyone with a smile.
"Haha, thank you for bringing Lone Star. He raised his glass to the million.
Originally, there were many martial artists present, all of whom were not bird wisdom Sanping, but when they saw that they all raised their glasses, everyone echoed and raised their glasses.
In this way, the wine was finished, everyone was seated, and the feast began normally.
"Lone Star, it's great that you're back safely. At this time, Lan Yancui walked over and said to Lone Star.
"Ha, Blue Girl, thank you for still thinking about me. Lone Star saw a blue robe, elegant and refined Lan Yancui, in this noisy banquet, it can be regarded as a little refreshing.
"Yo, you young people should communicate, Uncle Li, reopen a table, let their young people get together, and call Zhigang and Sun Jian to come over. Ti million commanded.
"Yes, sir, I'll do it. Uncle Li turned around and left, and after a while, a new table was set up.
"Zhigang, hurry up, I didn't see the Lord of Tibao setting up a table to call you. This Zhi Sanping happily pushed Zhi Gang Dao.
"Well, I see, father. Zhigang said helplessly.
Although he is the son of Zhi Sanping, Zhi Gang and this father are not the same character at all, Zhi Sanping is notoriously weak and showy, and loves to be cheap, while Zhigang is more honest and has a more upright personality, which is a healthy and good boy.
In this way, the three young people talked and laughed together, and they were very happy.
"Smack...... Syllable...... Slap ......" With the rhythmic sound of palm clapping, Sun Changsheng stood up.
"Hahaha, it's a good day for the return of the Lone Star Son today, and everyone here is a figure with a head and a face in Jia Town, it's really a grand event. So, shouldn't we find something more fun?" Sun Changsheng said deliberately loudly, as if to demonstrate his authority.
Hearing Sun Changsheng's words, everyone was still for a while, not knowing what to say.
"Yo, haha, Elder Sun, I don't know what you mean?"
"Ha, it's not interesting, it's just that I heard that the Lone Star Son went out to practice secretly, I don't know how the cultivation is, and now a few young people are here, just enough to hold a martial arts meeting, one, so that young people can also show their faces, and second, everyone is also feasting their eyes." ”
"This, haha, Great Elder, Lone Star has just come back, and his vitality has not been paid, I'm afraid that it will sweep everyone Yaxing, so it's better to change the day." Ti Million said with a little embarrassment.
"yes, yes. Some businessmen chimed in.
"Hmph, are you secretly cultivating some magical skills, don't you dare to show it to the public? Or are you just a waste, afraid of losing the face of Shangbao, Lone Star, you are really such a useless person. Sun Jian suddenly sat up from his seat and said fiercely.
"Smack!" There was a loud bang, and the lone star shot up, and the scene was quiet for a while, and there was a sound of dripping water.
