Chapter 224 The reason for toasting
"Senior Tang, you said it very well! But someone said that I am dull and even if I practice hard for half a lifetime, it will be mediocre." Xue Chang said with accusation.
"Who is so unsighted?!" Zhou Qiao cursed first.
But Geng Po retorted unconvincedly: "When did I say this? I just said that you have some qualifications, but you work too late and may not achieve much in the future."
"Isn't this the same thing?" Xue Chang pretended to be stunned.
"I'm talking about 'possible'. Do you understand the meaning of 'possible'?" Geng Po said anxiously.
"Maybe, or maybe not. I certainly understand this. Many fortune tellers often say this. Mr. Geng, you, a chef, want to change your career," Xue Chang joked.
"I'll kill you--" Geng Po was so angry that he just raised his hand. Seeing Xue Chang also stretched out his fist, his words came to an abrupt end. He took his hand unnaturally and pretended to touch his face.
Zhou Qiao laughed loudly.
Luo Dachui sighed, "I have seen several martial arts people who were sealed by the seven evil spirits of the Tang Sect before and died. Examples like Xue Xiaoyou who can survive its torture and improve internal strength are probably unique. Although Xue Xiaoyou has extraordinary skills to protect her and has extraordinary talents, if the other party is not slightly inferior in skills and coincides with the disciples of the Goddess Palace coming to save her, it is probably a great disaster. Xue Xiaoyou has such an adventure, which is really a blessing for the Buddha, and it is a blessing for heaven!" Luo Dachui was born in Shaolin Temple after all, and he couldn't help but call him Buddha.
His words also made Cui Keyan and others who originally wanted to try this method to enhance their internal strength have to consider it more.
"What are you talking about?" A familiar voice came from behind Luo Dachui.
Everyone looked up and saw that Ye Ziqiong and Ye San looked at them with a smile on their faces. Everyone stood up quickly.
"Because the people in your table are all our own people from the Iron Blood Changhemen, I will pay attention to everyone at the end and hope you don't take it a word." Ziqiong Ye held a big bowl of wine, her pretty face turned slightly red, and she said with a smile.
"No, no, no." Everyone waved their hands quickly.
Xue Chang was stunned for a moment: Luo Dachui, Tang Fangzhuo, Zhou Qiao, Geng Po are from the Iron Blood Changhemen, Feiyu Gang, Danshan Gang, Dengjiabao was built by the Iron Blood Changhemen, the head of the Kunlun Sect and the Iron Blood Changhemen are blood relatives, and the two factions are also closely related. Only the Xiaoyao Sect is different. Except for Hu Qiudi who can have some relationship with the Iron Blood Changhemen, Xue Chang has a good relationship with Geng Po, Shangguan Yi and others of the Xiaoyao Sect, there is no life between the Xiaoyao Sect and the Iron Blood Changhemen. Friendship, more strictly speaking, the demise of the Jincheng Escort Bureau, the predecessor of the Xiaoyao Sect, was directly related to the Iron Blood Changhe Sect. However, the Xiaoyao Sect received an invitation letter from the Iron Blood Changhe Sect. As far as he knew, except for the Jinghu Wulin Sect, there were only a few martial arts sects in other regions who were invited, most of them had a considerable relationship with the Iron Blood Changhe Sect. I am afraid that the Xiaoyao Sect was invited not only by Zhou Qiao, Luo Dachui and others, but also by Ye Ziqiong's expectations!
Xue Chang looked at Ziqiong Ye opposite the dining table. She was frowning at everyone at this moment, and said dissatisfiedly: "Dear uncles, you all claim to be people who can't fall into a thousand cups, but why are you drinking with a small cup? You can't compare to a woman like me!"
"I just said that I would be teased by the sect leader when I drink a small cup, but you just don't listen!" Zhou Qiao immediately complained.
"Master, you drink wine as water, how can we compare to it?" Geng Po just explained a few words, and Luo Dahui waved his hand straightforwardly: "Okay, stop talking. If you change to a big bowl, it is rare for us to drink with the master."
"It's still the right thing for Uncle Luo!" Ziqiong Ye praised and waved to the accompanying iron-blooded Changhemen disciples to change the wine glasses into large bowls.
After the wine was filled, Ziqiong Ye held the wine bowl and first tributed Luo Dahui, Tang Fangzhuo, Zhou Qiao and Geng Po. She said sincerely: "Four uncles, the Iron Blood Changhemen can return to Dazhou, establish themselves in Jiangling, and have the current foundation. It depends entirely on your unremitting efforts. I have gone from a little girl who knows nothing to the leader of the Iron Blood Changhemen who knows nothing. You are also inseparable from your full cooperation and support. So this bowl of wine is my Ziqiong Ye's sincere thanks to you. I will respect you first!" After that, she drank it very simply in one sip.
"Sect Master, you are too modest. You don't know a little bit. Although you are a woman, you are born to be the sect master!" Zhou Qiao praised with empathy.
"That's right, you have the style of an old sect leader and are much better than your father!" Tang Fangzhuo rarely praised anyone, but he always felt strange when he heard this.
"And, the sect leader's ability to drink is better than the old sect leader!" Luo Dachui also praised.
"Uh...uh..." Geng Po thought for a while and said, "You are also very insightful, and you know that I am the best candidate to manage the logistics affairs of the sect."
The other three immediately gave Geng Po a contemptuous look.
Gu Ma
The four of them made a joke and quickly drank the wine in the bowl in response.
Xue Chang saw it and sighed in her heart: When she was in Tiejian Villa a year ago, Ziqiong Ye was still a fledgling novice at that time. Although Luo Dachui, Zhou Qiao and others surrounded her, she seemed to take care of her as a child. Now she can control the situation, so that these senior iron-blooded Changhemen people dare not be too casual.
Ziqiong Ye soon filled another bowl of wine, came to Cui Keyan, and said solemnly: "Uncle Cui, I toast you this bowl of wine. Thank you for your care and care for me over the years! I will not be by my grandmother's side in the future, so I can only ask you to take care of her more!"
After discussion, Hua Haoyue and Ye San discussed that they wanted to train Ye Ziqiong, so they took her up the mountain since childhood. Although they did not take anyone as their teacher, anyone had to carefully teach her martial arts and knowledge. Since Hua Haoyue was busy as the head of the sect in the early days, Cui Keyan and Ye Ziqiong spent the most time together in the Kunlun School. It can be said that they watched her grow up since childhood.
At this moment, Cui Keyan looked at the heroic and capable girl in front of her and couldn't help but sigh: "Miqiong, you have really grown up, and it has greatly exceeded the expectations of the leader of you!"
Hearing this, Michelle Ye suddenly felt that her efforts over the past year were worth it, because as a representative of the Kunlun School, Cui Keyan's affirmation also represents her grandmother's opinion to a great extent. She suppressed her complacency and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Cui, don't worry, Iron Blood Changhemen will do its best to help you achieve the goals you want to achieve!"
Cui Keyan certainly knew what Michelle Ye was saying, and he looked at Ye San behind Ye Ziqiong.
Ye San nodded to him knowingly.
Cui Keyan felt relieved, and then heard Michelle Ye say at a lower volume: "Uncle Cui, about Senior Brother Ma... I'm sorry."
Cui Keyan smiled bitterly. One of his tasks this time was to try to match the marriage between Ma Lingfeng and Michelle Ye, but after Michelle Ye made a vow in public, this matter was no longer possible. But the matter had already happened. He could only sigh: "You can't blame you for this matter. In that case... you can only blame Lingfeng and you for not being destined to be together. However, the vow you made was too heavy. Your grandmother and father might be very dissatisfied with it."
Obviously, in Cui Keyan's view, even the wise and powerful Emperor Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty failed to expel the Northern Barbarians to the north of Yanshan Mountain. There is no possibility of peace now that has been peaceful for more than 30 years. Will Ziqiong Ye never have the chance to get married? Therefore, his eyes were filled with deep dissatisfaction and glance at Ye San and others, complaining about their inaction and incompetence, and allowing others to force Ziqiong Ye to make such a heavy decision.
Ziqiong Ye saw his thoughts and said firmly: "Uncle Cui, this is my own decision. Grandpa and all the teachers were completely unaware of it before. Even if my grandmother and father force me to do so in the future, I will not take it back! I firmly believe that we will realize this vow one day and regain the hometown of my ancestors! Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. The bowl of wine I toast to you has been drunk, and you haven't drunk it yet."
Seeing that Michelle Ye had made up her mind and could not persuade her anymore, Cui Keyan raised the wine bowl in her hand and signaled to Ye San.
Ye San was originally accompanying Ye Ziqiong to toast, but he was the only one holding a wine glass. After all, he was old and had a respectable status, so no one raised any objections.
Cui Keyan couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Senior Ye, the leader agreed to let Ziqiong follow you back to Dazhou. Have you not forgotten what you promised?"
The leaves were as deep as water on all sides, and they didn't answer, so they picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
Tricky didn't say much and drank the wine in the bowl.
Ziqiong Ye continued to toast Han Yeqiu, Li Changle, and Deng Buyan, thanking them for their selfless help to the Iron Blood Changhemen during this period, and hopes that from now on, the Iron Blood Changhemen will form a brotherly alliance with the Feiyu Gang, the Danshan Gang, and Dengjiabao, to help each other and resist foreign humiliation together.
This was actually a discussion before. The three gang leaders were officially established as soon as they touched the happy wine bowl.
Finally, Ziqiong Ye walked to Xue Chang with a wine bowl filled with wine. She didn't know how much wine she drank, but her graceful figure did not change at all. However, there was a hint of redness on her pretty face, which added a bit of charm to her vigorous heroic posture. Looking at Xue Chang, she smiled brightly and became even more charming: "President Xue, I'll respect you."
Xue Chang couldn't help but tease, "Is there a reason for this bowl of wine?"
Ziqiong Ye smiled and his expression became serious. He stared at Xue Chang and said softly: "Although I was born in Qingluo, I grew up listening to the heroic stories of my grandfather and the iron-blooded Changhemen people. I have always had a longing for the martial arts people in the Great Zhou. You are the first friend I met after returning to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Let me know that my longing for the martial arts people in the Great Zhou Dynasty is not just a beautiful imagination, but has strengthened my determination to stay here..."
Xue Chang's heart moved and asked, "What kind of longing do you think?"
Ziqiong Ye's eyes circulated and she said angrily: "If you want to hear my praise, just say it clearly."
Xue Chang laughed.
