The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 194
Follow Zhu Hai to the Martial Arts Field.

The terrain here is open, and the length and width are all hundreds of feet!

The Martial Arts Field is surrounded by white jade railings. There is an entrance in the east, west and south, and the north side is backed by a cliff with a height of hundreds of feet. The distance between the two is about [-] feet. Located in a deep pool, because the water flow is almost close to the mountain wall, the water mist is not very large, and the roar is not too loud.Through the waterfall, Feng Jiuxiao can vaguely see a huge "Chi" character chiseled out of the cliff!It is several feet long and wide, and the stroke is several inches deep. The vermilion red lacquer is dazzling!
There are a pair of male and female stone lions on the left and right at the three entrances and exits, about three feet high, with teeth and claws, eyes wide open, mighty and terrifying!
The ground of the square is all paved with huge marble tiles, which can be seen as a lesson!In the center of the arena is a ten-foot-tall bronze statue of a god!

The statue has thick eyebrows and big eyes, red top and green eyes, a tall nose, and triangular eyes. Heavenly Master Shan Zhang!
Feng Jiuxiao couldn't help but move in his heart!Does Master Zhu Ba believe in the Orthodoxy?
He carefully observed the ups and downs of the surrounding mountains, but he saw that Zushan was sending out veins, and the dragon's head was going up against the water. Taking the direction along the water as the mountain, it was against the trend.Fengshui here is good, why are stone lions placed on three sides of the square?What's more, a huge "Chi" character is engraved on the north mountain wall?This is clearly a feng shui bureau!

Feng Jiuxiao couldn't help but fell into deep thought, thinking to himself: Could it be that there are evil spirits here?That's why they set up this evil-suppressing situation?What's in town?Could it be the Tiger Jiao?But the tiger dragon is just an ancient strange beast, it rarely appears in the world, and it doesn't easily cause harm to the world, so it can't be regarded as a demon.Feng Jiuxiao had been planning in his mind, and followed Zhu Hai to the martial arts arena.

At this time, the martial arts arena temporarily laid out a red carpet, and a stage was built on the west side of the martial arts arena. It seems that there will be a good show in Liyuan tonight, and a high platform was built on the north side. , "I am the only one" means.On the middle of the high platform, there is a grand teacher's chair, which should be the seat where the birthday man received the gift.On the east side of the martial arts arena, countless chairs are densely packed, neatly arranged like a chessboard.Around the martial arts arena, countless red lanterns are hung high, and there are also suspended ropes criss-crossing above the martial arts arena, and countless small lanterns are hung.Although the sky was not yet completely dark, all the lanterns had been lit, and the entire martial arts arena was as bright as day.

Because the managers of the Zhu family have communicated with everyone in advance, and the words are first. Although the Zhu family has a big business, the reception capacity is limited after all, and the accommodation space is still insufficient. Today, there are too many friends from all over the world, which completely exceeds expectations. Just for a moment, so the banquets are not set up in the Martial Arts Field, and the banquets are set up in each branch of the villa. I hope you can give me your understanding.

There are at least 3000 visitors, if they gather in the Yanwu Field for dinner, the problem of serving food will be difficult to death!The kitchen is not three or five feet away from here, and the nearest small kitchen needs to bypass a pond to get here!Serving food, serving food, and serving wine, even if they can be solved, will make the Zhu family jump up and down. Originally, the Zhu family estimated that more than 1000 people could come to the sky. They also underestimated the prestige and connections of Mr. Zhu Ba up!So eating is really not as comfortable as going to various branches, and it is still noisy here, so everyone understands very well.

Feng Jiuxiao naturally sat in the front row as the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Department.Liu Miezhou sat down next to Feng Jiuxiao.

A few white-haired old men sat down one after another on the left and right sides of them. Hearing that the servants called them "Master Zhang" and "Master Li", and since they were not wearing official uniforms and were too old, Feng Jiuxiao guessed that these people were all Some "past" officials who have returned to their hometowns.On both sides, there are some "now" officials in official uniforms.Look at the clothing level up to four products.There are also some who are not officials but come on behalf of the head of the family. As the saying goes: the seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister, the master is as big as the slave, and some people are sent by the first-rank officials of the current dynasty. Naturally, the seats should be higher.But because of no official position, no matter how high the front is, you can't surpass the fourth-rank officials!Otherwise, what is the official prestige of the fourth-rank officials?

At present, there is no one in the front position than Feng Jiuxiao!
Feng Jiuxiao smiled at Liu Miezhou, "I didn't expect to be the biggest official here today!" Liu Miezhou's melancholy eyes seemed to be even more melancholy, and he didn't speak, wondering if he could hear him, Feng Jiuxiao looked at him, Feeling very bored, he had no choice but to turn his head and look into the field.

When all the people in the black crowd were seated, dozens of strong men in red came in from the east gate, followed closely by the masters and young masters of the Zhu family, and a woman with a child in her arms entered the venue like a rushing water, and then the stars cheered. A group of young people from Yuedi appeared on the stage surrounded by the birthday star Mr. Zhu Batai!

After the dozens of strong men in red clothes first entered the arena, they lined up on both sides of the main seat, each of them mighty and majestic, quite powerful.

Feng Jiuxiao saw Zhu Batai's face was full of red, he was full of energy, his steps were vigorous, and he didn't look old. He didn't look like an 80-year-old man!
As soon as Grandpa Zhu Ba entered the arena, the guests who were already sitting couldn't help but stand up. Standing up alone led the people around him to stand up too. The ground was rolling like waves, and Feng Jiuxiao had to follow the tide and stand up too.

Thousands of people waited silently for Master Zhu Ba to sit down.

Grandpa Zhu Ba smiled and gestured for everyone to sit down with both hands.Thousands of people sat down in unison!

Feng Jiuxiao finally grasped the power of Master Zhu Ba!

The master of ceremonies for this big birthday was Jiang Bianhe, Zuo Sima from Caizhou.

After Jiang Bianhe's step-by-step opening remarks, he grandly introduced the life story of Master Zhu Ba. Every time he mentioned something exciting, the guests present applauded enthusiastically. Whenever someone was mentioned, he stood up and bowed to Master Zhu Ba. I bowed my hands to pay tribute, and my gratitude and respect were beyond words!
Although Jiangbian Crane spoke fast, the words were clear, and thousands of people present could hear them clearly!Feng Jiuxiao heard that he was very angry, and he turned out to be a master of the six realms!

After he briefly introduced the main brilliant achievements of Master Zhu Ba, he officially started the birthday celebration ceremony!According to the local custom, the children of the family pay their respects first, that is, Mr. Zhu brings his son, daughter-in-law, grandson, grandson-in-law, granddaughter, and grandson-in-law to kowtow to the old man, then the second and third masters, and finally the daughter and son-in-law. The daughter is already a "foreign surname".

Looking at the big family in front of him, Feng Jiuxiao couldn't help feeling: Zhu's family is really flourishing!

Then came the birthday party for outsiders.

Just the opposite of the seats, young people with low status pay birthday respects first.Jiang Bianhe read twenty people's names each time, and prepared in advance for whomever he read.Every group of ten people stepped forward to salute.Then when it comes to higher status, it is a group of five.

As the number of people decreases, the status and respect of those who worship birthdays become more prominent.Conversely, the more respected the status of the birthday worshipper, the more it looks like Mr. Ba Zhu's face is great, isn't it?
Watching others bow first and then present presents, the master of ceremonies sang loudly beside him and said that such and such would offer such and such gifts, for example, Wang Ruoying, the right Sima of Caizhou, came to celebrate his birthday and presented a set of Hetian Yuzhaoling Six Horses!For another example, Li Tianming, head of Liuhe Gunshao in Gwangju, came to pay homage to his birthday and presented a six-foot coral!
There are all the four treasures of the study room, antiques, famous calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver jewellery, silk and satin, and Liu Miezhou couldn't help asking softly: "Master, I don't know what we will give, can't we just give a sentence of longevity to Nanshan? "

Feng Jiuxiao also lowered her head slightly and laughed softly: "How can I? I have always been generous, and I don't do the business of sending goose feathers thousands of miles away. Since we are sitting in the first row here, with thousands of eyes watching, if we are empty-handed, it will not be a joke for the world At that time, not only will we be ashamed, but Wei Qiansui, the governor of the imperial city, will also be thrown in?" He patted his chest and said mysteriously: "Fortunately, there are still stocks!"

At this time, Jiang Bian recalled the Xiao family in the east city and the Xiao family in the west city, as well as some other aristocratic families in the city between the second and third rates.I saw two Patriarchs of the Xiao family bringing their wives and children to congratulate them.

The two Mrs. Xiao are both beautifully dressed, even more dazzling than their daughters from a distance.

After all, the two Mrs. Xiao were beauties when they were young. Although they are old, they still have charm.Seeing the fiery gazes from the guest seats, the two Mrs. Xiao's faces were even more radiant, and they were brilliant!The two masters Xiao kept frowning, but they didn't dare to say anything under the watchful eyes of everyone, and they would be even more embarrassing if they provoked the tigress to roar on the spot!
The two Mrs. Xiao were radiant in front of thousands of people. They were in a good mood at first, but as soon as the two ladies saw each other, their faces turned frosty!
The two of them competed on the same stage evenly, so they were both upset!

They returned to their seats resentfully.

At the end, Jiang Bianhe read their names one by one, because in the end they were all high-ranking officials or famous people, or local rich and powerful families.

Fortunately, there were only a dozen or so people, so everyone didn't worry about taking too long.

Jiangbian Crane sang: "Qiu Xiaoyun from Dafeng Hall in Guangzhou came to pay his respects! Present a jasper and peach tree!" Qiu Xiaoyun was tall, handsome, and imposing, which caused many women in the crowd to whisper.

"Is he the second young master of the Qiu family?"

"Yeah, really young."

"What? You think Qiu Er is a bad old man?"

"No, I've heard of his name since I was a child. It's been more than ten years. I thought he must be in his 40s or [-]s."

"He became famous at a young age! I heard that he killed someone at the age of 11!"

"Really? He looks so gentle and dares to kill someone?"

"Don't forget what his father does!"

"His father? Dong Batian of Guangzhou?"

"correct."

Some women whispered, causing the elders of the family next to them to frown, and someone deliberately coughed a few times to signal them to be reserved.

But little effect.

The elders shook their heads, the young people nowadays are really a headache.

Until Qiu Xiaoyun took his seat, the discussions continued.

Just listen to the riverside crane singing: "Chu Liuhua, the third young master of the Chu family in Caizhou, came to pay his respects, and presented a nine-story Boshan incense burner in the Han Dynasty!" The guests all exclaimed!
A skillful craftsman in Chang'an made a nine-story Boshan incense burner.The engraving is a strange bird and monster, and there are many supernatural beings, all of which move naturally.This is a famous furnace recorded in history books!Some old people even stretched their necks and widened their eyes to see the true face, but unfortunately they were too far away to see clearly.Unexpectedly, Master Zhu Ba was as careful as a hair, he waved to Jiang Bianhe, and Jiang Bian He listened to him, Zhu Ba Master said a few words, Jiang Bian He nodded again and again, and then said loudly: "The old man said that all gifts from relatives and friends The gifts will be placed in the Houshan Museum in a while, and those who are willing to watch them can go and enjoy them slowly." The guests' seats were full of cheers!Feng Jiuxiao had no choice but to admire Master Zhu Ba's exquisite heart!Thoughtful, good at empathy, see through people's hearts, know what others need, and give it to others in a timely and decisive manner. How can a person be so unpopular?

Mrs. Xiao in Dongcheng suddenly saw that good-for-nothing son-in-law suddenly became the young master of the Chu family, and came to pay respects on behalf of the Chu family. The first thing she did was the priceless nine-story Boshan incense burner. It was really difficult to talk, so he pinched Dongcheng Lao Xiao's thigh hard, and Lao Xiao's face turned purple from the pain, and he almost cried out, so he had to grit his teeth and hold back!Mrs. Xiao complained: "You trash! Why didn't you tell me that he is from the Chu family?"

Old Xiao smiled wryly: "I don't know, my father probably knows his identity."

"Your father must know! This old bastard even lied to his own family!"

"You! What did you just say?" Old Xiao's face turned green and pale!

Mrs. Xiao in Dongcheng stared, "What? What are you staring at? You want to hit me? Saying he is an old bastard dirty my mouth! You are also a piece of trash! I have been married to you for more than 20 years, what have I gained? Think Back then..." The more she spoke, the angrier she became, and the more she spoke, the sadder she became, and she gradually began to cry!
Jiang Bianhe coughed, and his eyes were sharp: "Today is Mr. Ba Zhu's [-]th birthday, I hope some people will distinguish the occasion, so as not to disturb other people's happy day!"

Lao Xiao immediately pinched his wife, his face was full of anxiety, and he said in a deep voice, "Do you want to die?"

Madam Xiao immediately shut up.

Compared with life, dignity and face are nothing!Although Mrs. Xiao is a snobby villain, she is not a single-minded fool.She had already seen murderous intent in Jiang Sima's eyes!
The next birthday caller, Young Master Ye.There was a lot of discussion among the crowd. "Isn't this the good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Xiao family in Xicheng? How did he become the young master of the Ye family?"

"Is it a person? Doesn't it look alike?"

"Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, isn't that your son-in-law? Hey, Mrs. Xiao, why don't you speak?"

"Okay, don't even ask, don't bother my wife anymore, this is our family business!"

"Hey, Lao Xiao is hardened today, and he knows to be a shield for his wife, and he has made progress!"

"You..." Old Xiao was furious over it!He looked at his daughter, then at his wife, both of them were in a daze, their eyes were empty.He knew that the two of them must have been greatly stimulated.Looking at the young master of the Ye family who was in the limelight and in high spirits on the stage, Lao Xiao was also a little dazed. Is this person still Xiaoye who knelt at his feet to wash his daughter's feet?Is it still that waste who is submissive to his family?

The future heir of the Ye family, one of the four major families!

The whole person looks heroic and majestic, how can he look like a half-bad son-in-law?
He happened to pass by his mother-in-law when he returned to his seat, and he turned a blind eye to the Xiao family.His former brother-in-law's eyes were shining, and he was so excited that he almost jumped up. He wanted everyone in the world to know that his brother-in-law was the young master of the Ye family!He was about to say hello to Young Master Ye, but unexpectedly Young Master Ye had already passed by, without seeing himself at all!Did you not see it, or pretended not to see it?The brother-in-law also fell silent suddenly.Thinking of his cynicism and insults to his brother-in-law in the past three years, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness.It was as if grandpa had left him a golden mountain, but he lost it casually.The family felt lost and could no longer be happy.

When the old Mr. Liu, the former Zhongshu servant who retired to the countryside, paid his birthday visit, only Feng Jiuxiao was left on stage.

In fact, everyone has long been full of curiosity about the two young people sitting among a group of gray-haired old men.

Such a young age, but such a high status!

Some are envious, some are jealous.

Due to the special status of the Imperial City Division, Feng Jiuxiao was the last one to read his name, "The deputy commander-in-chief of the Imperial City Division envoys Master Feng Jiuxiao to come to pay his respects!" The crowd suddenly went into an uproar!

"Huangcheng Division? Even the people of Huangcheng Division came to pay respects to Mr. Zhu Ba's birthday! Isn't this too much face? That is an institution with the privilege of "beheading first and playing later"!"

"By the way, I heard that a detective from the Imperial City Division killed eleven yamen servants in Zhuma Town yesterday, but nothing happened in the end. I don't know if it's true or not?"

Since Feng Jiuxiao didn't send the gift list in advance, Jiang Bianhe didn't know what birthday gift Feng Jiuxiao gave.Although there were ups and downs in his heart, there was no wave on his face.

At this time, thousands of people in the audience saw two young men, one white and one black, walking towards Mr. Ba Taizhu in a graceful manner, and then Mr. Jiang called out loudly, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Imperial City Division!Some of the guests also murmured: Bah!What a great authority!Huh?Empty hands?Depend on!You can't get things done if you don't have hair!Master Zhu Ba celebrated his birthday, these two people actually came empty-handed?No matter how awesome your Imperial City Secretary is, you can't be so arrogant, right?
However, the young man in white took out a vial as emerald green as emerald from his pocket, and said loudly: "Today, Feng XX specially presented a bottle of ice crocodile blood and a bottle of golden dragon gallbladder to Mrs. Zhu Ba!"

Jiang Bianhe's expression changed, and he lost his voice: "What?"

Although Feng Jiuxiao's voice was not loud, he was confident that everyone present could hear it clearly!
The crowd immediately exploded!
"What? Golden Flood Gall? The Golden Flood Gall has appeared again?"

"Ice crocodile blood? I heard it right just now, right? Is it the ice crocodile? The legendary ice crocodile, an ancient beast that breathed out into ice, is that ice crocodile?"

Master Zhu Ba's body, which had always been as steady as Mount Tai, trembled slightly at this time!
The Zhu family was naturally horrified, and the expressions of all the birthday worshipers changed dramatically!
Although many people are not from the rivers and lakes, they have heard of these ancient beasts, golden dragon gallbladder, ice crocodile blood, which one is not a rare treasure from ancient times?
People who practice martial arts can increase their skills for ten years!

Ordinary people add at least ten years to their life expectancy!

In the hands of a genius doctor, "life and death, flesh and bones" can be achieved, which is extremely miraculous!

Thousands of people have different expressions, including envious eyes, greedy eyes, and surprised eyes.

The scene was full of people's voices, and it was a bit out of control. The sound of gurgling waterfalls falling into the water and various music playing bombs were suppressed. Finally, the riverside crane reacted quickly and immediately sang loudly: "Lord Feng offers a bottle of ice crocodile blood!" Just, a bottle of Golden Flood Gallbladder!"

The crowd suddenly became silent gradually, and in the end they were completely silent.

Everyone is staring at the emerald green bottle!
The silence speaks.
