Chapter 67: Chapter 67
"It seems that our group is finally here, so let me toast to everyone first!" Seeing the last two people seated, Sui Yuan stood up, toasted to everyone, and the rest also stood up.

"Congratulations to Sui City Lord's [-]th birthday, longer than Nanshan." Everyone congratulated in unison, and drank the wine in their cups in one gulp.

"I don't know if you've noticed this circular green bamboo canal in front of you? It's fate for everyone to get together today, why don't we play a game of 'Liu Shang Qu Shui'? So that everyone can get to know each other." Sui Yuan pointed at that place. Everyone also looked at the circular canal flowing in front of everyone present and applauded from time to time.

Liushang Qushui, also known as Liubei Qushui or Qushui Liushang, is a banquet custom in the old Shangsi Festival. During the banquet, people sit around the curved canal and place special light wine glasses upstream. Let him float slowly along the tortuous current, and whoever floats the wine glass will take the glass and drink.And so on and on, until you're done.The literati even developed this custom into an elegant gathering of celebrities, that is, whoever puts the wine glass in front of them has to compose a poem.

It seems that Sui Yuan has prepared such a program long ago. The clear water flows slowly among the emerald bamboo canals. The tables and chairs in this area are also arranged according to the circular shape of the canals, so that the clear water can flow to everyone. before.

After speaking, Sui Yuan clapped his hands, and a group of maids brought sake and wine glasses, and each distributed a copy.

"What kind of tricks is this old city lord playing?" Yan Kaiting looked at the surrounding people with different backgrounds, and whispered, only Fu Mingxuan could hear it.

"In short, don't be careless." Fu Mingxuan slowly poured a glass of wine into the boat-shaped glass.

"Then, let's go in order, Sui will come first?" After speaking, Sui Yuan poured a glass of wine into the special light boat-shaped wine glass, and gently placed the wine glass in the ditch.

I saw that the wine glass contained a small cup of sake, floating on the clear water, flowing slowly downstream along the canal, bumping a few times from time to time, and hitting the edge of the canal, but the wine in the glass was still stable in it and did not spill out. One drop.

Just when everyone was wondering who the first glass of wine would stop in front of, there was a sudden explosion, as if a stone had been thrown into the lake, and everyone was a little surprised. Looking at the reputation, it turned out to be the performance stage The show started again, it was a circus performing and training spirit beasts.

The explosion just now was the explosion of a ball of fire spit out from the mouth of the red spirit beast to the sky.Immediately, there was a burst of applause in the entire banquet area.

When everyone turned their heads, they saw that the wine glass stopped in front of Yan Kaiting, but Yan Kaiting didn't pay attention, still patting Fu Mingxuan on the shoulder, pointing at the spirit beast on the stage and saying something.

"Ahem." Fu Mingxuan coughed lightly, and said, "Brother Ting, you have won the lottery."

"Oh?" Yan Kaiting looked into the canal, only to see that the boat had parked in front of him and was still turning around.

Everyone looked over for a while, Yan opened the court to look at everyone, stretched out his hand to take the glass of wine from the canal, stood up, and said: "Yan's family Yan held court in Yujing, Yongzhou, and we are here today. The fate of the field, the junior is not talented, and there is no special skill, and reciting poems is even more difficult to talk about, so for this first glass of wine, I would like to thank Old City Lord Sui for his great love for me, a junior."

After speaking, he drank it in one gulp.

"Okay!" Cheng Xiaotian was the first to applaud, and Lian'er next to him was trembling with laughter.

Sui Yuan also smiled until his eyes narrowed, making it impossible for others to see the true expression in his eyes.The four people in Xiao Youmen also smiled faintly, and one of them glanced at Fu Mingxuan from time to time, while Fu Mingxuan's face was indifferent.The man in Duobao Pavilion was also smiling calmly, watching Yan Kaiting, and opposite, the woman in pink who was talking with the city lord's wife also glanced at Yan Kaiting and the two from time to time.

Then for the second time, Yan Kaiting poured a glass of wine and put it in the ditch. The boat floated and circled, and stopped in front of Cheng Xiaotian.

"Ouch, it's my turn!" Cheng Xiaotian stood up with a bang, took out the wine and drank it down, and then burped loudly.

"Hey, it's so dirty!" Lian'er, who was sitting next to Cheng Xiaotian, waved her hand impatiently, as if to drive away the alcohol smell floating in the air.

"Since I drank wine, I have to show it off. How about everyone here playing a big knife?" After drinking a glass of wine, Cheng Xiaotian's face turned red.

Yan Kaiting and Fu Mingxuan were also speechless, just now they were beaten by Yan Kaiting and fell to the ground in embarrassment, now they are going to play a big knife for everyone in front of the two of them?

Wasn't the big knife smashed into two pieces by Yan Kaiting with Tai Chu?Yan Kaiting felt contempt for a while, but wanted to see what kind of tricks this kid was up to now.

Before everyone could speak, Cheng Xiaotian jumped onto the performance stage, frightening the dancing singers into a panic.

"Go, go, don't stand in my way!" Cheng Xiaotian savagely drove all the singers off the stage, he took out two big knives from nowhere, and swung them on his own.

"This" looked at Cheng Xiaotian who seemed to be dancing for a while, Sui Yuan showed a slightly embarrassed expression, and said to the crowd: "Everyone, please forgive me, this Cheng Xiaotian is my elder brother. My sister's only son has been pampered since he was a child, and he made everyone laugh today."

"Where is it, brother Cheng is young, and his courage is indeed extraordinary, and he will definitely be a talent in the future." One of Xiaoyoumen said, Yan Kaiting and Fu Mingxuan both looked over.

I saw that this person had a thin figure, a lean face, and a unique voice, as if in a valley and ethereal. From the looks of it, he seemed to be the leader of the four Xiaoyoumen.

"His name is Luo Changsu, and he is the famous 'Ghost of the Empty Valley' in Xiaoyoumen. Don't listen to his nice voice. At critical moments, this voice can kill people." Fu Mingxuan whispered in Yan Kaiting's ear, and Yan Kaiting He also nodded, it was also the first time he heard the killing method using human voice as a weapon. It seems that the people in Xiaoyoumen are all different, and he doesn't know how Fu Mingxuan got to this point by himself. positional.

"After all, he is still my senior brother." Fu Mingxuan said.

At this moment, Cheng Xiaotian, who had finished juggling the knife, finally returned to his seat, panting and asked Lian'er, "Lian'er, do you think I'm good at playing?"

Lian'er pouted her lips, snorted softly, and said: "The monkeys on Wushan Mountain are better than you at playing tricks!"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help laughing, and they all endured it because it was in the way of face.

"Hmph!" Cheng Xiaotian didn't reply, probably because he was used to being beaten by Lian'er, he poured a glass of wine and put it in the ditch.

Unexpectedly, the wine was a little full, but it didn't float very far. It floated past Tu Yuyong, and stopped in front of the man wearing the finger puller.

I saw that the man looked elegant and magnanimous, he gently took the wine glass out of the ditch, stood up, raised his glass and said to everyone: "Mu Qianyu in Xiaduobao Pavilion, if you can come to participate in the city lord's meeting It is really an honor to have a birthday banquet, and for the third cup of wine, I will first honor the birthday star, City Lord Sui."

After speaking, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

After drinking the wine, Mu Qianyu took out a spherical magic weapon slightly the size of a teacup from his arms.

This magical instrument is small and exquisite, with a layer of metal grid on the outside, which looks like gilt, shining under the light. The nodes of the grid are inlaid with magnificent colorful gemstones, and in the center of the ball, floating A crystal clear blue light ball, like a drop of water shining with a strange light.

"This is a magic weapon I created recently, called 'Spirit of the Sky'. It has two functions. First, it is used to move and destroy objects in the air. Second, it is also the most important function. It is the distortion of time and space, and today I will show it to everyone for the sake of fun."

After finishing speaking, Mu Qianyu threw the spirit of space into the sky, and the sphere was fixed in the middle of the ring formed by everyone.

The ball was still spinning, and Mu Qianyu stretched out his hand, as if holding the ball from the air, twisted it slightly, then slowly withdrew his hand, and instantly pushed forward.The blue light drop hanging inside the Sky Spirit suddenly shot a light point forward, and the light point passed through the crowd like a flying arrow, and shot on a rockery in the distance, with a bang, the rockery exploded, It simply turned into powder, fluttering and falling down.

Such a rockery of more than two feet high turned into flying powder and disappeared in an instant. It can be seen how powerful this magic weapon is, and everyone exclaimed.

"So, what about distorting time and space?" Lian Er asked with wide eyes staring at Mu Qianyu curiously.

"Miss, don't worry, just wait and see me." After finishing speaking, Mu Qianyu put the empty spirit in his hands, rubbed his hands together, then threw it into the air again, and shouted in surprise: "Definitely!"

Before everyone understood what happened, they saw that except for the banquet area on the inner floor, all the people, objects, and scenes in the banquet area were frozen at this moment, as if time had stopped passing.

"Wow! That's amazing!" Lian Er clapped her hands happily, and everyone praised her.

At this moment, the surrounding scenery changed again, and the world seemed to be caught in a weird vortex, distorted into a grotesque appearance, whether it was people laughing, or all kinds of treasured delicacies on the table, or wind... A piece of cherry blossom blown up in the air seemed to be printed on a piece of silk cloth, and then twisted into a ball.

This state lasted for about half a stick of incense, and Mu Qianyu suddenly shouted: "Back!" Immediately, the surrounding scene returned to normal, and the guests laughed and laughed again, drinking and drinking, eating vegetables, as if what happened just now Nothing happened, the cherry blossoms rolled up in the wind fell on someone's head.

"What a powerful magic weapon!" Sui Yuan clapped his hands in applause, and said, "As expected of the Duobao Pavilion, it is so powerful!"

Mu Qianyu received Kong Zhiling, sat down, and said: "The city lord laughed at me. This is just a gadget I made casually. It's not worth mentioning, and it doesn't represent the real strength of Duobao Pavilion."

Hearing this, Fu Mingxuan and Yan Kaiting looked at each other.

A few days ago, Han Fenglai appeared in Yujing City, and the words at that time are still in the hearts of the two of them. Although they didn't understand at the time, but now seeing Duobao Pavilion, who made a big deal in Weiqing City, the doubts in their hearts suddenly disappeared. It became clearer.

If the Yetian Workshop hadn't played a role in the disputes over refining weapons that took place in Yujing City a few days ago, the suspicion of Duobao Pavilion would be even worse.

According to the rules, Mu Qianyu filled the cup with wine and put it in the canal. Everyone was looking at the boat full of wine, who would stop in front of it this time.
