Chapter 136 Mandala(1/3)
Banquet House.
When the three of them entered the banquet hall, many guests had already arrived. This time, this competition attracted brides and created momentum in the martial arts world for more than half a year. More than 300 registered people were registered. After screening, one hundred people were finally selected to participate in the main competition.
Among the four major families, a younger generation of disciples were also sent. In addition to Li Changsheng, the fourth young master of the Liu family in Hedong, and the fifth young master of the Cui family in Guanlong, Cui Dongban, also came with the elders in the family. In the major sects, in addition to Shaolin's polite refusal to be concerned about the world, they also sent young disciples in the sect to try their luck. Some young and older knights who have become famous in the world also came here.
Although the Tang family is not one of the four major families, they are also considered famous families in the world. If these heroes and rangers are lucky enough to win in the competition and become the son-in-law of the Tang family, even if they are in the back, it will be an enviable beauty.
For this night banquet, more than twenty tables were set up in the hall. In addition to those who participated in the competition, there were also some famous knights in the rivers and lakes in Shu, and some noble people in Chengdu Mansion, who also received invitations.
The three of them found a remote wine table to sit down, and the guests arrived one after another. In a short while, four or five people sat on their table. One of them was Xiao Jinyan, who was talking big in the restaurant during the day.
When Yu Sifan saw the three of them wearing servants' clothes, he was a little puzzled, "You three are also participating in the competition to attract brides?"
Xiao Jinyan smiled, "Although this competition is aimed at the entire martial arts world, three places were given in the Tang Mansion. After all, the third lady is the number one beauty in Shu, who doesn't want to kiss her?"
Yu Sifan said, "Understand, understand. I think your martial arts are not very good. Tomorrow's martial arts competition, if you meet me, I will give you a chance to show off. Even if you can't marry Miss Tang San and show your face, maybe the girl in the mansion will take a fancy to you."
Xiao Jinyan thanked repeatedly.
Yu Sifan was very active and was born with a natural familiarity. In a short while, he became familiar with everyone at the table who participated in the competition. There were Tianshan School, Songshan School, and a monk from Putuo Temple. Yu Sifan asked, "Why, you, a monk, are also interested in Miss Tang's family?"
The monk said, "I don't have to quit the Dharma name, I don't have to quit the alcohol and meat, I don't have to quit the murder, and I don't have to quit the sex of women. Although I am a monk, you can't kill the restless heart of the monk."
Yu Sifan laughed, "Then you just get restless."
Xiao Jinyan took the opportunity to pull Li and Zhao. Today there were many customers and quickly completed their plan to make money. The two shook their heads and said they would not.
Xiao Jinyan said, "I will show you a demonstration, you can learn something first." After that, he whispered to Si Fan, "Yizhihua Hero, I see you are handsome and handsome, and your martial arts are outstanding at first glance. This time, this martial arts competition will attract brides, you must be the first name."
When Yu Sifan heard Xiao Jinyan's flattery, he looked quite proud, "You boy, have a good attitude!"
Xiao Jinyan took the opportunity to say, "But even if you win the first place, you will still be happy with Miss Three, right? Do you know what flowers the third lady likes the most, what color do you like to eat?"
"I don't know, you know?"
Xiao Jinyan smiled, "How come we don't know about this for so long?"
"Tell me quickly!"
Xiao Jinyan glanced around and saw that the other people deliberately pretended to be nothing, but their ears still stood up. Xiao Jinyan thought to himself that there was something to do and said, "It's not impossible to say it, but it's not very expensive to spend some money. One question is ten taels of silver, buy three and get one free."
Yu Sifan said in surprise, "So expensive?"
"Whether it is expensive or not depends on whether you think it is worth it or not." Xiao Jinyan said, "For those who can't even enter the finals, these silver is of course very expensive, but at first glance you will be able to win the championship. By then, you will become the son-in-law of the Tang family. This amount of silver is not enough for a morning tea."
Yu Sifan was right when he thought about it. He gritted his teeth and took out thirty taels of silver. Xiao Jinyan told him four messages with his ears.
When the rest of the people heard that he had the third lady, they all expressed their willingness to pay. Yu Sifan stopped him, "You can only tell me about these news."
Xiao Jinyan spread his hands, "Everyone gives money, your request is a bit too much. Why don't you give more and buy out the news about the third lady?"
"How many?"
"There are 50 messages from the third lady, you can just pay a thousand taels."
Yu Sifan thought for a while, "Forget it, it's too expensive. Anyway, it's useless if they know. They can't make it to the finals, haha!"
Xiao Jinyan smiled and said, "You can't say that. If I were you and became the son-in-law of the Tang clan, but too many people know about his wife's preferences, it would not be a good thing."
"What he said makes sense." Yu Sifan said, "But I don't have that much money."
A person next to him said, "If you don't have money, just go cool. Brother, I want your news too."
Xiao Jinyan whispered to everyone, "Do you want to know what color of underwear the third lady like? How big is her breasts? It only takes three hundred taels. This news is yours. Think about it, on the wedding night, everything you do reaches the heart of Miss Three. Miss Tang still loves you so much?"
When everyone heard that they wanted three hundred taels of silver, they immediately gave up the idea. However, a few people still spent dozens of taels of silver and bought a few messages.
Xiao Jinyan said to Zhao and Li, "I have learned it, there are more than a dozen tables left. You can try it."
Zhao Langjiang stood up, sank into his dantian, and said loudly, "Do you want to know what color and size of Miss Tang San's underwear are? It only costs 300 taels of silver!"
As soon as these words came out, seventy or eighty people had already sat down in the hall and looked over here. Xiao Jinyan pulled Li Qingcheng down, pretending not to know him, and lowered his head to drink tea.
The third supervisor Han Jixiang was in the hall and said angrily: "Tang Sanbao, what are you talking about? Come on, blow him out for me!"
Zhao Langjiang looked back at Xiao Jinyan, "Your move doesn't work."
Xiao Jinyan turned his head and looked elsewhere. Several servants came over and invited Zhao Langjiang out. Zhao Langjiang said to himself, "If you want to know, come here to ask!"
Everyone cursed and said that this guy was shameless and actually blasphemed our inviolable Miss Tang Jiasan in public, and suggested that he be disqualified from his qualifications to compete for martial arts and brides. Anyway, they are all opponents, and if you can reduce one, you will have one more chance.
At this time, Li Changsheng, the sixth young master of the Li family in Jinling, came to Yanbin Tower, saw Li Qingcheng, and strode over and said, "Third Brother, are you here."
Li Qingcheng signaled him not to talk nonsense, but fortunately, these people didn't know Li Changsheng, so they didn't think anything about it.
Li Qingcheng asked, "Do you want to know what color and size of underwear Miss Tang San likes?"
Li Changsheng opened his eyes wide and looked at him for a moment, waved his hands repeatedly, "I don't want to, don't want to! If I had known that you would have participated, I wouldn't have joined in the fun."
"How come you don't want to think, how can you not want to think, how can you not want to think?" Li Qingcheng was a little angry.
Li Changsheng laughed and said, "After all, it is the privacy of his future sister-in-law. I dare not inquire about it, I dare not to ha!"
Yizhihua Yu Sifan interrupted, "Who are you? How dare you fight for my wife?"
Li Changsheng looked at him coldly, "Who are you? How dare you rob me of my sister-in-law?" Although he was afraid of Li Qingcheng, he was quite famous in the world. He did not see it in ordinary people.
"I am a flower in the world, and I am ranked seventh in the list of young handsome men in Xiaosheng!"
Li Changsheng spent his whole life, "It turned out to be Yu Sifan and Yu Shaoxia."
"Have you heard it?"
"I haven't heard of it."
Yu Sifan said, "It's impossible, I spent 8,000 taels of silver to make a special issue in Xiaosheng Jianghu!" As he said that, he took out several special issue in Xiaosheng Jianghu from his arms and circulated it to everyone.
Li Changsheng flipped through and said, "Xiaosheng Jianghu Qiongzhou special issue, with a circulation of thirty volumes. Not bad, not bad, indeed famous!"
Qiongzhou is located at the southernmost part of the Ming Dynasty, with sparsely populated areas and not even a decent sect.
Yu Sifan's face turned slightly red, "Hmph, after tomorrow, this name will spread throughout the world!"
Li Changsheng threw the special issue back to him, "I wish you success!"
Yu Sifan said, "Who are you? You dare to leave a name. To compete tomorrow. If you can enter the finals, you can compete with you so that you won't die under my hands when you are in trouble, and you won't even be able to say your name."
At this time, a servant came over and said, "Are you the sixth young master of the Li family in Jinling? Our master invites you to the seat!"
Everyone here, except for Xiao Jinyan, who knew his identity, was shocked when they heard that they were the sixth young master of the Li family in Jinling, and their feelings were also felt.
After all, the Li family in Jinling is too big and is as famous as Shaolin and Wudang. Their sixth young master actually came to participate in a martial arts competition to recruit brides. Wouldn't his chances be reduced sharply?
Some people also think that the Li family in Jinling may not be all masters, maybe they are just famous. Despite this, they all hope that they will not be part of the same group with him tomorrow.
Li Changsheng said, "No need, I'll just sit here."
Li Qingcheng coughed and signaled him to walk away. Seeing this, Li Changsheng had to go to the seat with the servant.
Yu Sifan snorted, "I'm not afraid of the Li family in Jinling."
Xiao Jinyan poked Li Qingcheng, and Li Qingcheng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
The guests gradually entered the seat and sat down one after another according to their status in the martial arts world. Xiao Jinyan saw that Tang Bujing from the Bashan Sword Sect also came to the table and sat not far from his seat.
Among the guests, some did not participate in the competition to attract brides, but among the crowd, Xiao Jinyan, who came to watch the ceremony, saw Feng Qiansui, Lang Dazui, Chunyu Ying, and Tang Ao's table who had fought in Fuling City.
Xiao Jinyan also saw the Qingcheng Sect’s old man, who met in Baihua Tower, Yangzhou, and the Qingcheng two heroes Wu Suwei and Ai So-sou, who met in Suzhou City, and the three of them sat together with a silver-haired Taoist priest.
"The Qingcheng Sect has arrived, too?"
Li Qingcheng said, "The silver-haired Taoist priest is Shi Quanyou, the head of the Qingcheng Sect. The left leader is Li Jude, the eldest disciple, who was nicknamed Lingguang Sword and brought the art to the master. The other two, Qingcheng Ergou, I believe you know them all."
Xiao Jinyan remembered the eavesdropping on the tree yesterday. It seemed that both the Northern Zhou and the Qingcheng School came to the map of the Pear Blossom Needle, but this map was always in line with Tang Zhengfeng, so how would they do it?
Thinking of Tang Xiqiu asking him to steal pictures, Xiao Jinyan felt that things tonight might not be that simple.
At the beginning of the banquet, Tang Zhengfeng and his son and the main members of the Tang family came to Yanbin Building. Of course, Old Master Tang was old and generally would not attend such occasions.
Everyone congratulated the Tang family one after another.
For the Tang Sect, the only direct woman getting married is indeed a matter of congratulations.
Tang Zhengfeng picked up the wine glass and said to everyone, "Today is a night banquet before my niece Xiqiu's martial arts competition. As the owner of the Tang family, I am very grateful to all the passage doors in the world who can come to support me. Xiqiu is the pearl in the Tang family's hand. As my uncle, I also hope that she can marry a good family.
Our Tang family has been established for more than 500 years and has experienced ups and downs. We can always stand firm all the time. We rely on the support of all the colleagues in the martial arts competition to attract relatives. In this competition, we pursue fairness, fairness and transparency. The registered colleagues, from the seventy old man to the seven-year-old boy, from the royal power and wealth, from the peddlers, our Tang family does not care about their background, but only looks at martial arts and character!"
Xiao Jinyan laughed in his heart. Tang Zhengfeng said this with justice. If I hadn't heard the arrangement before the night banquet of the big manager, I would have believed it.
Someone shouted, "Master Tang, you said it well, but martial arts can determine the outcome, so how can you choose the first and second character?"
Tang Zhengfeng said loudly, "Good questions! During this competition, we will select four people who entered the finals from a hundred people. Xiqiu chatted with each other, eliminated the two, and finally selected them to fight the final."
"What are you talking about?"
"As for what to talk about, it depends on your own ability."
Xiao Jinyan was listening attentively, and suddenly Yu Sifan poked him with his hand and handed him a silver note. Xiao Jinyan looked down and immediately burst into laughter.
"What do Miss Three like to eat?"
"Changsha Stinky Tofu."
"Which day is her birthday?"
