Chapter 509 Shocked, a group of people at the banquet unexpectedly
The banquet started, and Chen Xiyi had already entered the arena, but he was arranged to go to a relatively remote corner. Besides him, there were three other people who were also treated in the same way. These three were all scholars, and they seemed to be selected as well. came in.
Ten people were selected this time, and the remaining seven were chosen according to luck.
Chen Xiyi also chatted briefly with these three people. These three people are all famous scholars, but they are all the top of the case, that is, they have been admitted to the first place.
From this, even if you don't need the Qi Wang technique, you can know that the luck of these two people is not low.
After chatting for a while, Lord Long appeared on the stage. This has nothing to do with them. After all, they are all with the dignitaries in front of them, and they rarely pay attention to the corners.
Besides, Chen Xiyi also saw Gao Chi, and he probably had the highest status in the audience.
However, the face of Taihu Dragon Lord is not very good-looking, and the remaining anger on his face has not disappeared.
Obviously, Taihu Longfei's move caught him off guard, and more importantly, he had no reason to stop it.
None of those old friends remained, they were all cleaned up.
It's just that the timing is not right now, and he knows the importance, so it's hard to say too much for the sake of a few lovers.
After all, if you want it, you can change the batch, but you may need to raise it again.
This matter can only be regarded as their own doing, and it directly hit Long Fei's hands. Originally, Long Fei would not say that she would take the initiative to deal with it, and it would also give him face.
‘I have to say that everyone in a high position is good at adjusting their mentality. ’ Chen Xiyi found that in just a few seconds, Taihu Dragon Lord suppressed all the emotions that should not have appeared, and exchanged glasses with the guests present like a spring breeze.
Of course, fringe people like Chen Xiyi eat and drink similarly, but the treatment is very different.
After he took a sip of the wine, he felt the green in his luck gradually spread, filling nearly one-tenth of the white.
Originally, it was only about one percent, but with just one sip of wine, it directly increased by nine percent.
"Good wine!" Chen Xiyi finished speaking slowly, and stopped caring about the wine.
One sip of this thing is enough, but the second sip has no effect.
Of course, there are also many branches here that can increase luck, but they are not fun, because most of them need to be in the limelight.
He managed to hide the cause and effect of the party struggle. If it gets more attention, it might be linked to it.
You must know that Gao Chi is above, and the other party seems to have seen him, so he raised his glass to signal, while Chen Xiyi also raised his glass with a slight smile and pretended to take a sip.
Just the wine in his glass can raise goldfish.
Soon it was time for the talent show. To be honest, Chen Xiyi felt that there was no competitiveness among the ten people who came in.
After looking at those famous families, whether it is talent or spells, they are far superior
'Holy shit, the luck of purple in the red! ! ’ Chen Xiyi swiped his qi art away, and saw a certain young scholar in a plain gown with a canopy of luck on his head. Among the people present, only Gao Chi, King Jingzhong, could hold him down.
'This is outrageous, you tell me that this kind of luck is mixed up like this, you can't say that the sky is about to send a big task to the people, you must first work your muscles and bones, and your heart? '
Chen Xiyi was muttering in his heart, of course, Chen Xiyi was not the only one who was muttering, everyone present who knew how to watch Qi was also muttering.
Especially Gao Chi, he was wondering if this kid was a relative of the royal family or the private posthumous son of his elder brother.
This matter is indeed outrageous, of course, it is exactly the case that it will be included in the list.
If there is anyone who can marry a dragon girl, it is probably only this one.
‘Although he is still a scholar, but just this time, I’m afraid he will skyrocket. ’ Chen Xiyi also muttered in his heart.
He didn't have any ideas, he just took it for fun anyway.
Chen Xiyi could clearly see that the other party's luck was changing little by little, and the purple luck spread a little bit, accounting for about two-thirds, directly changing from purple in vermilion to vermilion in purple. It's a world away.
Under the intentional guidance of a group of people, in the end the young scholar was also forced to come up and write a poem on the spot.
This process is very familiar to Chen Xiyi.
For example, someone wants to throw a brick to attract jade, and then provoke and ridicule, and then refute.
Finally, he slapped his face and pretended to step on the other party's upper position, and his reputation would come out.
After that, the dragon girl appeared, and she looks okay.
"It's really about showing off at the banquet, and then hugging the beauty back." Chen Xiyi briefly summarized the process.
The scholar on the side frowned when he heard Chen Xiyi's words: "Brother Chen, that poem is brilliant and majestic. It's a person with real talent and learning. It's not a fluke."
"Well, I know, I just want to express my feelings, this person has gained a lot of fame." Chen Xiyi knew that the other party was trying to persuade him, so he explained.
Chen Xiyi is not the kind of idiot villain who sees that the other party has such strength and insists on luck. Although he is a righteous knight who often plays the role of villain, it does not mean that he is idiot.
The other party has strong power. If someone really comes up to question plagiarism or has a problem, it will not resonate with the guests present. Instead, they will think that this is a clown.
People who are really capable will not rise up to question, but will use their talents to face each other head-on.
So it seems that the three scholars sitting with Chen Xiyi are very self-aware, and there is no showy behavior in the whole banquet, which is quite low-key.
Originally, they still had the idea of marrying a dragon girl, but after arriving at the scene, they found that they did not have any advantages, so naturally they did not want to humiliate themselves. Instead, they turned around and started to form a small circle, chatting and discussing , that's right, Chen Xiyi is also a member of this small circle.
Everyone was assigned to a corner, which showed that no matter their status or talent, they were actually pretty much the same, and they were regarded as the same kind of people.
The banquet ended soon, Long Jun intends to recruit that young scholar as his son-in-law, Gao Chi is also eager to recruit him under his command, and other forces or dignitaries also come to curry favor.
Among other things, as long as this person enters the official career or cultivates Taoism, he will have a smooth journey and achieve extremely high achievements.
It can be called a golden lump, so you have to make a good relationship quickly while the other party is not yet prosperous, or else when they grow up in the future, how can the icing on the cake be as good as giving charcoal in the snow.
The banquet ended quickly, and most of the people stayed in the Dragon Palace because of this. Fortunately, the Dragon Palace is relatively large, and there is no shortage of space.
But someone like Chen Xiyi who has no influence or ability is naturally not qualified to stay.
Chen Xiyi was thinking about how this increased luck manifested itself.
Luck does not grow out of thin air. Although it is illusory, it can still be translated into reality.
‘Maybe it’s fame? ’ Chen Xiyi thought of this possibility, after all, there are very few people around here who can attend the Dragon Palace Banquet.
Just about to leave, Chen Xiyi was stopped.
"Chen Xiucai, Concubine Long is here to invite you." A guard who looked like a shrimp demon stopped Chen Xiyi, with a very respectful tone, without any arrogance or disdain.
The nine people who left together could not help but look sideways at Chen Xiyi.
"Since it's the Dragon Concubine's offer, I can't refuse it. Everyone go ahead first, and I'll come later." Naturally, Chen Xiyi didn't refuse. It's not a good thing to refuse the other party's request on his territory.
Still in the back garden, Concubine Long is sitting in the pavilion, tasting tea.
"Thank you, Chen Xiucai, for finding out these evil spirits in Taihu Lake for me. I don't have a very good thank you gift, only a scroll of paintings for you, Chen Xiucai." Long Fei said straight to the point when she arrived.
As he spoke, a clam spirit came holding a scroll.
After seeing this painting, Chen Xiyi's impression of this dragon concubine immediately dropped to the extreme.
Of course he knows this painting, it is the painting that Chen Xiyi gave up before, and if he really wants to get it, the cause and effect of protecting the remnant of the family will fall on him.
But the problem is, the benefits are gone.
After a simple calculation, I knew the cause and effect. The co-author was to pave the way for your son-in-law, but it turned out to be cheating on me?
That's right, the winner of this painting is the young scholar who made a big splash before.
"I'm a person who likes to help others, so I don't need this painting, just leave it to Lord Long." Chen Xiyi's tone was very calm, but Princess Long couldn't hear it.
She didn't know the cause and effect, but she also saw the origin of this painting. It was very hot, and she couldn't stay in the Dragon Palace, so she had to find someone unlucky. Chen Xiyi came to mind.
Hearing Chen Xiyi's refusal made her a little displeased: "Chen Xiucai should keep it. This painting is made by a famous artist, and it just matches you, Xiucai. If you don't accept it, won't it make the world laugh at me for not understanding it? Gratitude."
"Since it's so precious, how dare I keep it. Don't mention it. If nothing happens, I'll take my leave first."
After Chen Xiyi finished speaking, he walked back without looking back.
In his deduction, the cause and effect of this painting has gone through such a hand, and it is even more important. If he really wants to follow up, he will probably feel uneasy.
The reason for this is likely to be that Gao Chi and Taihu Dragon Lord have reached a cooperation, making it even more dangerous.
As for why it fell into the hands of Concubine Taihu, it was naturally that the scholar gave the painting as a gift, and it was discovered by Concubine Taihu who was taking stock of the gifts.
"Hmph, don't eat the toast and fine wine, and wait until tomorrow morning to arrange someone to deliver it to him with great fanfare in the name of repaying gratitude, I don't believe he won't accept it." Taihu Dragon Concubine snorted coldly, and immediately ordered.
Chen Xiyi, who left on the other side, naturally knew what Taihu Dragon Concubine was thinking.
‘Once the karma and luck are formed, they will attract each other continuously. These are the traces, the traces left by people in the world. '
Chen Xiyi understands that it doesn't mean that he won't be infected if he doesn't take the initiative to contact the cause and effect. As long as he lives in this world, various ways of doing things will trigger various causes and effects.
And this time, that's it.
If it is said that after taking this painting, he can still gain luck, Chen Xiyi doesn't mind accepting it as a way of saving face, but now he really only has to worry about cause and effect. Personality, let alone an unfamiliar person.
‘Since you want to cheat me, don’t blame me. '
The cooperation between Taihu Longjun and Gao Chi is simply a way to kill. In the future, the parties will fight together, how can they stay out of the matter.
Since Chen Xiyi does not join Gao Chi's faction, he will definitely be an enemy in the future.
Then don’t blame him for being cruel.
As for the other party trying to force it to you, do you really think that cause and effect are so easy to avoid?
If it’s so easy to avoid karma, then there won’t be so many incidents. If Chen Xiyi picked it up at that time, it would be that he voluntarily took on karma, but he didn’t.
Then even if it was forced to Chen Xiyi, it would not be Chen Xiyi's turn.
What's more, he is about to run away, and the other party may not be able to find him.
