Martial Arts: Gain a Jiazi internal force at the beginning!

Chapter 371 Night Banquet

Tonight's Mountain and Sea Club is far more lively than expected.

The Jing Shen Dao visited Shan Hai Hui late at night to seek Tu Lie's favor.

This was definitely not an ordinary visit, otherwise there would be no need to schedule it in the evening.

So what exactly is Jiang Ran doing here tonight?

Many people want to know.

Some people have no friendship with Shanhaihui, cannot enter the gate of Shanhaihui, or do not want to get involved in such trouble.

Therefore, they will choose to wait and see from afar.

The surrounding buildings, residences, and restaurants are the best observation points.

Although it can't be said that all the densely packed areas are filled with people, there are already many ghosts, ghosts, and snakes that have taken over.

There are also some people who have friendship with Shanhai and want to visit.

Except for a few people who Shen Tulie could not refuse, most of them had been turned away.

But even so, more than ten people had gathered in the backyard of the Shanhai Guild's general helm.

In addition to Shen Tulie and Jian Wusheng, there were people from the Jianghu and the court.

Shen Tulie sat in the main seat, feeling as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

His eyes swept over everyone present one by one.

The first to admire the last ones were the two women.

Although there were not many people present, the two of them seemed to only be able to see each other.

Since arriving, his eyes have never taken away from the other party.

It seems that humans and animals are harmless, but Shen Tulie knows that these are two people who are extremely difficult to mess with.

They are also known as the "Snow Ridge Divine Spiders", they are red and white in color, they are good at using poison, and their techniques are unpredictable.

Sometimes, until the person they targeted was poisoned and died, they didn't know how they were poisoned.

In addition, they also have a joint attack ability called [Qianluo Spider Flower].

Silk can be knotted into a formation, and falling into it is like a moth falling into a spider's web, making it difficult to find a way out.

However, they are quite decent people, and they are arrogant and have no one but each other. As long as no one provokes them, they can regard everything in this world as nothing and only care about each other.

This time they came to visit, mainly because they all wanted to see Jiang Ran, the upstart in the world.

As for the purpose... Shen Tulie didn't know either.

Sitting opposite them were two taciturn men.

Their fists were covered with old calluses.

He has a strong body and wears his clothes tightly.

The two are not brothers, but they look and look like brothers.

They are all like an old monk entering concentration.

Their reputation in the world is not great, but Shen Tulie knows that this is not because they are not good at martial arts.

It's because they lacked a suitable opportunity.

The background of these two people is quite big.

In the past, there was a very powerful sect named [Thunder God Sect].

There is a secret skill in the sect [Big Heavenly Thunder Thousand Strikes Fist], which makes people fearful when traveling across the rivers and lakes.

However, when the water is full, it overflows, and nothing can be done too much.

The Thunder God Sect knows that it is fearless in the world, and its actions cannot help but be arrogant and domineering.

Eventually he was abandoned by the world.

It took them decades to rise from the ordinary, but it took them only two or three years to fall from the top.

First, the disciples were always besieged and killed when they went out.

Afterwards, the Thunder God Sect tried their best to investigate, and another group of people died.

From then on, the Thunder God Sect became furious and wanted to become an enemy of Jianghu, becoming more and more arrogant.

The result is a situation where everyone is the enemy.

He was besieged by various sects and sects in the rivers and lakes, and finally ended up in a miserable state.

Almost all of the disciples died, and almost all of the inheritance was broken.

But time has changed, and now the Lei Shen Sect's secret knowledge has been discovered again, which has made these two people's martial arts successful.

They met Shen Tulie by chance when he was traveling in the Jianghu in his early years. They met each other after seeing their excellent martial arts skills.

They want to revive the prestige of the Thunder God Sect and live up to what they have learned.

But they were unwilling to wander around in the world as usual, thinking it was a waste of time.

Then you can only find a master to challenge.

It's a pity that there are too many masters in this world. They are in the limelight today, but they will fall like meteors tomorrow.

There has never been a suitable opponent.

Today's amazing sword is the most suitable opponent in recent years.

He wanted to make a name for himself, so he came to ask for an audience.

Naturally, Shen Tulie couldn't refuse.

Looking further up, sitting there was a somewhat pale young man.

He looked to be in his thirties, wearing a fox fur coat, holding a water bag in his hand, shivering in the cold wind.

Yuwenting...

When Shen Tulie saw this person, he felt a little headache.

The son of the Minister of Hubu.

Everyone knows that the Ministry of Households holds financial power.

This eldest son is someone that ordinary people cannot afford to offend.

Even for his father's sake, Shen Tulie couldn't turn him away.

Coupled with his poor health, it would be impossible to explain if Shen Tulie died outside the Shanhaihui with a hundred mouths all over his body.

And it's actually not a surprise that this person will come.

Yuwenting thought he was hiding it well, but everyone knew that he liked the eldest princess.

Of course, what you like is what you want, but whether it is more intentional or more calculating is a matter of opinion.

But where can things in this world be so pure?

Especially when it comes to situations such as power and wealth, and for people at their level, many things are often not as simple as ordinary people think.

Everyone is accustomed to this.

It's a pity that King Xiang has a dream about the goddess and has no intention of doing so.

The eldest princess only regarded him as a decoration.

But everyone felt that the martyr girl was afraid of stalking her husband. As long as Yuwen Ting did not change her infatuation, who knew what would happen in the future?

Even if the eldest princess cannot be moved, even if the current holy emperor is moved and decrees a marriage, can the eldest princess still disobey the holy will?

As a result, when the eldest princess returned to Beijing, she brought back Jiang Ran.

The romance between the two people was full of excitement.

I heard that the two of them are now sleeping under the same roof, or even on the same bed.

How embarrassed is this for Yuwen Ting?

It is a pity that the eldest princess Yunying is not married and has never been engaged to anyone. Wherever this matter is taken, Yuwen Ting has nowhere to complain about his grievances.

Although Shen Tulie heard that someone in the court once wrote a memorial to the Holy Emperor on the grounds that the eldest princess had misbehaved.

As a result, the Holy Father didn't even mention it at the court meeting.

At this time, many people were speculating that the Holy Emperor was very satisfied with Jiang Ran?

Is the choice of the eldest princess’s consort decided like this?

Otherwise, how could it be so indifferent?

Otherwise... even the Holy One thinks that the eldest princess is so old that it is time to get married.

She can't force her, but as long as there is someone she likes, she can love whomever... Anyway, just marry her, otherwise, she will become a hot potato.

All these things made Yu Wenting feel like there was a barrier in his heart.

When I came to visit today, I naturally wanted to watch Jiang Ran's show.

Shen Tulie's eyes averted from Yu Wenting's face, and when he looked across from him, he saw a middle-aged man sitting opposite him.

If I had to describe this person's sitting posture, it would be that of a dragon and a tiger, with extraordinary momentum.

This person has a great reputation in the court, and an extraordinary reputation in the army.

On the occasion of Wuwei, Gong Chuanxi.

He joined the army as a man in green clothes, fought and fought for decades, and rose from the vanguard to become a marquis.

He can be said to be a legend.

Although he has rarely fought on the battlefield in recent years, the contribution he has made can be said that as long as future generations do not commit suicide and rebel, the royal family will preserve the prosperity and wealth of his family.

But the arrival of this person made Shen Tulie a little confused.

Based on his status, he was actually not qualified to let Marquis Wuwei visit in person.

Even if Shen Tu Lie comes to visit him in person, whether the Marquis of Wuwei can see him still depends on his mood.

Even Shen Tulie couldn't understand the purpose of this person's arrival this time.

But...let's forget about this person for now.

The thing that made Shen Tulie feel on pins and needles the most was the person sitting on his left. He looked up.

He happened to be eye-to-eye with a young man.

The man smiled slightly and raised his glass.

Shen Tulie quickly raised his glass with both hands and saluted from a distance.

This person did not come alone...

There were four people following behind.

It's just that the figures of these four people are hidden under the cover of black robes, and their faces cannot be seen clearly.

But just from their breathing and body shape, we can tell that they are no ordinary warriors.

However, such a person is not even qualified to sit down on such an occasion.

This shows the identity of this young man.

This person's surname is Shan.

The current prince Shan Zhi!

If the arrival of Marquis Wuwei made Shen Tu Lie confused, then the arrival of the crown prince made Shen Tu Lie even more frightened.

I don't understand at all why Jiang Ran's visit led to the prince of the dynasty personally coming forward?

I can't help but have random thoughts in my mind...

Legend has it that the relationship between the prince and the eldest princess is not too harmonious. The prince even proposed more than once at the court meeting that the male should be married and the girl should be married... and he wanted to find an in-law for the eldest princess. The eldest princess turned pale with anger.

Now that Jiang Ran has an unclear relationship with the eldest princess, it seems reasonable to attract the prince to visit...?

The only thing that gave Shen Tulie some comfort was his mentor.

The mentor didn't want to see anyone easily, so he didn't show up at the table.

Instead, he hid in a small pavilion not far behind him.

Once Jiang Ran really does something excessive, his mentor will definitely come to his aid.

In comparison, Jian Wusheng, who was sitting on one side holding the table and eating and drinking, was really unreliable at all.

Looking up at the sky, the night is colorful and the coldness is getting deeper.

Shen Tu Lie has already begun to complain about Jiang Ran, why don't you come sooner?

Some of the people who came tonight were so powerful... He could hardly sit still.

Fortunately, no one in the venue paid much attention.

Some were drinking one cup after another, and some were looking around with smiles, seemingly interested in everything they looked at.

You can also close your eyes and relax, not paying attention to everything around you...

Just like that, time passed by minute by minute, and midnight was coming in a blink of an eye.

Jian Wusheng suddenly put down the half-eaten chicken leg, picked up a square handkerchief on one side and wiped his hands:

"The hour has come."

Why hasn't Jiang Ran come yet?

Everyone knows the meaning of Jian Wusheng.

But no one spoke...

Shen Tulie didn't say anything.

After all, the prince didn't even speak. Although he was the master here, the master acted like a thorn in his ass. It was really inappropriate to speak rashly now.

Jian Wusheng didn't care, but looked at Shan Zhi with a half-smile:

"This noble man... tell me, if Jiang Ran knew you were waiting for him here, would he still be so late?"

Shan Zhi's smile became more obvious. He never raised his head to look at Jian Wusheng, but said softly:

"Most likely it will.

"All the masters of the world often underestimate the princes and look down on the princes.

"Who will care about imperial power and wealth?"

Marquis Wuwei nodded when he heard this:

"Well said, they are all a bunch of rebellious officials and traitors."

Shen Tulie's forehead was sweating... did this sentence include himself?

But to put it bluntly, today is the situation of this group of "rebellious ministers and traitors". You two, who are above the court, came here and made such nonsense. Don't worry about Jian Wusheng getting angry and taking action with his sword. , let you see, what is a real traitor?

Jian Wusheng laughed loudly when he heard this:

"Wu Weihou's words are interesting, but I don't know, what is a rebellious minister?

"We have never collaborated with the enemy or treason, nor have we raised troops to rebel.

"Where are the traitors and thieves?"

"He is lawless, uses martial arts to kill people wantonly, and treats the laws of the dynasty as nothing. How dare he say that he is not a traitor?"

Wu Weihou sneered:

“Although Jin Chan’s troubles in the world are rooted in those evil demons and heretics.

“But you so-called decent people, do you think you can stay out of it?

"In my opinion, if you really want to do it, those evil heretics and people from the devil's sect may not be the opponents of noble families like you.

"But you just turned a blind eye and never intervened easily until things got out of hand.

“Thinking about it, it’s nothing more than an attempt to contain the imperial court.

"In fact, the Holy One should issue a ban on martial arts and ban this so-called arena!"

Jian Wusheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a faint sword light flowing in his eyes.

Wu Weihou fights on the battlefield and kills people everywhere, so naturally he is not afraid of the sword intent in his eyes.

Between the four eyes facing each other, there were faint sparks jumping.

I heard a burst of laughter:

"Okay, okay, both of you, please calm down. Calm down."

The speaker was Shan Zhi. He poured himself a glass of wine and said softly:

"As the saying goes, the whole world is not the land of the king, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers.

"The rivers and lakes are also a part of Jin Chan, and the masters of the rivers and lakes are also my people of Jin Chan... It's just that this method of governance needs more thinking.

“Don’t be easily beaten into rebellious officials and traitors.

"But we can't tolerate adultery...it's actually a big problem to decide the severity."

"Then what does the prince think should be done?"

Jian Wusheng looked at Shan Zhi.

Shan Zhi smiled:

"Why does the Sword Master care so much about this matter?

"I have long admired the reputation of the sword hero.

"I heard that the great swordsman walks around the world without being stuck in things.

“The trusty horse will follow the reins and go wherever the horse is inspired.

"How can such a person care about what the court does?"

"Anyway, Jiang Ran didn't come when he was supposed to come... Let's chat when we have nothing to do."

Jian Wusheng curled his lips:

"I haven't said anything since I asked a few questions..."

"You are a treacherous minister and a traitor, and you are inquiring into the affairs of our dynasty. Who knows what your intentions are?"

Marquis Wuwei sneered again and again.

Shan Zhi and Jian Wusheng looked at Wu Weihou at the same time.

The atmosphere was a little weird for a moment.

Shen Tulie smacked his lips, feeling that he should say something to lighten the atmosphere.

But with his mouth open, not a single word came out.

When I was in a dilemma, I suddenly saw a person sitting on the opposite wall.

The man was holding a small handful of peanuts in his hand, putting them in his mouth casually, pouring wine into his mouth, eating and drinking, looking very comfortable.

The most eye-catching thing is that there is a box with four corners hanging on his waist.

But the question is...when did this person appear?

Shen Tulie's expression suddenly changed:

"who!?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present followed Shen Tulie's gaze.

Then I saw the man on the wall slowly stood up, his mouth still a little unclear:

"Xia Jiangran...comes to visit...you guys wait, I'll finish the peanuts first.

"Speaking of which, where did the chef of Shentu Guild come from?

"How delicious is this fried peanut?"

Did you get the peanuts from my kitchen?

You're so rude!

Shen Tulie was furious for a moment and was about to stand up and say something, but finally lost his voice.

Jiang Ran took one step forward, as if he had turned into a stream of light, and he had already arrived in the middle of this scene.

His eyes swept over everyone present one by one, and while stuffing the last peanut into his mouth, he looked at Shen Tulie:

"Shen Tu Guild Leader, why is it so lively tonight?

"Are you entertaining guests in the backyard?"

Shentu Lie laughed angrily:

"That's natural... We are waiting here for the arrival of Master Jiang!?"

"Invite me to a banquet?"

Jiang Ran pointed to his nose, and then smiled dumbly:

"This is really strange. I am having a banquet, but there is no seat for me at this banquet. Before I arrive, you have already started the banquet. What is the reason for this?"

"Are you Jiang Ran?"

The first person to speak was the Snow Ridge Divine Spider.

The two people finally looked away from each other, and then moved to Jiang Ran together.

His eyes suddenly lit up and he said in unison:

"Good skin!"

"so?"

Jiang Ran was stunned. He had no impression of these two people.

I heard these two people say in unison again:

"Come with us and have a baby."

"???"

Jiang Ran suddenly looked at Shen Tulie:

"Head of the Shentu Association... don't even want this banquet!"

"This was not arranged by me..."

Shen Tu Lie's face turned dark and he couldn't help but look at the Snow Mountain Spider:

"What are you talking about?"

The Snow Mountain Spider did not look at Shen Tu Lie, and no one present was noticed by them.

They just looked at Jiang Ran:

"You are handsome, well-known, highly skilled in martial arts, and young.

“It will definitely allow us to have two children that are easy to feed.

"How about it? Our sisters are not ugly. I think you shouldn't refuse."

"...Are you two selecting breeding pigs?"

Jiang Ran was speechless for a moment:

"I think you two have found the wrong person...please..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw the two sisters looking at each other:

"He really doesn't want to."

"It doesn't matter, just capture him."

"What should I do if he doesn't cooperate after being caught?"

"Then drug him!"

"it is good."

The two of them have always spoken in unison since they started talking.

Even in this question and answer session, we all ask a question together and then answer a question together.

Waiting for the last word "ok" to fall, the two people flew up at the same time, chi chi chi, chi chi chi, there seemed to be invisible threads in the sky, covering Jiang Ran's body in all directions in the blink of an eye.
