Chapter 55 Opening of the Conference
Li Jiang really didn't hide from Mu Renqing on purpose, but was actually supervising Gaotai.
Because he was not sure whether his master and brothers could return to the mountain on time, he could only do it at that time, so as not to leave traces of wind and sun, which would make it dirty and unsightly.
The materials for the high platform can be sourced from the local area. Just ask someone to cut down a few pine trees, then peel the bark and build it together.
Needless to say, these people in the world are really versatile. Many of them are good at carpentry. As soon as Li Jiang asked about it two days ago, many people came, and they were free of charge. They were all proud to set up a stage for the grand event.
The guest carpenters had just cut down the trees, carried out the materials, and started working at the designated location under Li Jiang's order.
Li Jiang looked at a large area of empty space on the right side of the pine forest, which was bare, as if it had been gnawed by dogs. He whined in his heart, and went to talk to the people from the Longyou Gang.
!
What a bunch of rough guys, with no sense of aesthetics at all. Why don’t you chop down trees every few trees? If you have to crowd together and chop down one piece, how can I explain this to Mu Renqing?
Oh, it's a small case. Anyway, I have violated too many rules. As the saying goes, if you have too many debts, you don't have to worry. If you have too many fleas, you don't need to itch. Do whatever you like! I'm going to ascend later, so who cares?
Behind him, the flood surged into the sky.
The sun was getting higher and higher, and it was almost 11 o'clock. Li Jiang wanted to finish things early, because he didn't prepare lunch. How could he and the mute manage in such a crowded place.
Li Jiang's sharp eyes noticed that Mu Renqing and the others had come out. He quickly ran forward and said flatteringly: "Master, have you rested? You have traveled all the way through mountains and rivers, and you have been here for a long time. I think you are very tired."
Mu Renqing pointed at Li Jiang and snorted: "Don't be so playful! I'm not old yet, so I don't need your concern. I heard you..."
"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, master, the people carrying the wooden platform over there are calling me. I have to go over and have a look, don't let them mess it up." After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Mu Renqing's consent.
"You..." Mu Renqing was stunned.
Taoist Mu Sang who came out next to him laughed out loud. He had been in Huashan for a year or two and had seen many such situations.
"Old monkey, you little monkey is much smarter than you."
Hearing the teasing from Taoist Mu Sang, Mu Renqing came back to his senses, shook his head and smiled to himself, and said: "You are still too naughty and you still need to be disciplined."
Wow, everyone listening was dumbfounded? He injured his senior brother, crippled his senior sister-in-law and several apprentices, and it was determined by just a naughty sentence?
Gui Xingshu's family was even more sad. They didn't expect the master to be so confused. Even if Li Jiang killed many Tatars, he couldn't be like this! The serious crime of fratricide was just let off in such an understatement?
Yuan Chengzhi was not surprised at all, thinking that it was indeed similar to what he had guessed, and the master was fooled by this junior again.
Mu Renqing was really not confused. Of course, he was trying to protect his shortcomings.
He had learned about Li Jiang's actions after he came down from the mountain through King Chuang's spies in various places. He had also heard about what Gui Xingshu's family did in the world, and he had a good idea of what was right and wrong.
How about that the emperor loves his eldest son and the people love their younger ones? In Mu Renqing's view, Li Jiang had done nothing wrong, and he attacked his second apprentice and his family out of good intentions to maintain the rules of the Huashan sect. Who told this young apprentice to hate evil so much?
The young apprentice's methods are a bit fierce, but he is the next leader, and how he does things is his style. It is better not to get too involved, so as not to damage his prestige in the future.
Of course, proper beating is still necessary, otherwise this little monkey will be shaken up. We must let him know that things in the world cannot just rely on beating and killing.
The few people didn't stand for long before Li Jiang sent a member of the Longyou Gang to invite them to the high platform.
Mu Renqing was very considerate to his apprentice and led everyone up.
At this time, tables, chairs and benches have been placed above. They are all freshly made, revealing the original color of the wood, and a primitive style comes across.
Mu Renqing followed the instructions of the gang and sat in the middle of the wooden platform, feeling satisfied with the results Li Jiang had made in a hurry.
Suddenly, he paused his bearded hand and cast his gaze to the right. There was an empty space in the dense pine forest, which was very uncoordinated. In the blink of an eye, he understood who had done this!
Mu Renqing felt angry in his heart. He said, "Don't feel sorry for the child. This pine tree has been cultivated by generations of people in Huashan and finally grew so big. You just cut it down! I'll take care of you later."
Li Jiang didn't care about Mu Renqing's long face, and went to personally invite disciples from Wudang, Kunlun, Diancang and other major sects to sit on the stage. There are no people from the Shi family here. I heard that all their sects have closed the mountain.
Already.
Since this meeting was a bit hasty and no formal invitation was sent out, no senior people from these major sects were sent to attend the meeting. Instead, they came to join in the fun after hearing the news.
In order to show that this martial arts conference is a united, harmonious conference that can broadly represent various martial arts forces, Li Jiang pinched his nose and invited these shrimps to represent their respective sects on the stage. It was a big banner, better than nothing.
After everyone found their respective positions and settled down, Li Jiang stood on the wooden platform and summoned his inner strength to control the audience with his voice: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet. This conference has officially begun."
After the crowd fell silent, Li Jiang continued: "I, Li Jiang, a fourth disciple of Huashan, will be the host of the conference. First of all, I welcome everyone to come to Huashan to participate in the grand conference." After saying this, he started to applaud.
The people below don’t understand what a host is, and they don’t know how to applaud, but in the past few days, whether they know Li Jiang or not, they all know this great knight and hero who entered Shengjing single-handedly and killed many people in the Qing court.
.
Hearing the welcome expressed by the hero, everyone responded loudly, raised their arms and shouted: "You're welcome, hero Li!"
"Master Li, please tell me about killing the Tatars."
"Master Li, let's show off your skills."
"I heard that Daxia Li killed the wife of the Tatar Dog Emperor. I wonder if you...?"
…
Li Jiang listened to the chaotic sounds in the audience and cursed secretly: These people are so unorganized and undisciplined, they are so scattered.
But in my heart, I still had to put a smile on my face. I pressed my hands down to signal everyone to be quiet, and said calmly: "That is a topic for later, please be quiet now. Now, the host will introduce the various sects sitting on the high platform.
Representative, everyone applaud after me, like this..."
Li Jiang clapped his hands together and made a "papa papa" sound. Everyone knew it after seeing it. This is not a difficult move. Can't you "papa papa"?
There was a burst of "pah-pah-pah" sounds from the audience.
Seeing that they had all learned it, Li Jiang turned sideways and raised his hand and said: "The leader of this conference, uh, leader of the alliance, Mr. Qing, the head of the Huashan sect, Mr. Mu Ren, everyone applauds."
"Pa bang bang..."
Chapter completed!
