Chapter 46: reunion
Tianshui Pavilion is the largest and most luxurious restaurant in Zhongdu. It is full of friends every day, especially during festivals, it will become a gathering place for powerful people.
There are the most exquisite decorations here, famous calligraphy and paintings can be seen everywhere, and all kinds of rare ornaments are dizzying.
Today's Tianshui Pavilion is different. The big shopkeeper of Tianshui Pavilion is standing outside the door, clenching his fists and salutes all the guests, saying sorry.
Although the disappointed guests were very unhappy, no one would feel comfortable returning home on the first day of the new year, but they knew more about the forces behind Tianshui Pavilion, and no one dared to make trouble in Tianshui Pavilion.
What made the guests most curious was who could have such a large amount of energy to cover the entire Tianshui Pavilion.
To know which prince arrives at ordinary times, it is just a private box.
"Mo Yan, you go back first!" Li Shiming got out of the carriage and instructed Mo Yan who opened the curtain for him.
He didn't notice the commotion at the entrance of Tianshui Pavilion. It should be said that on this day, the entire Zhongdu City is extremely lively, especially this street with a very heavy commercial atmosphere.
"Young Master, Tianshui customers are not accepting foreign customers today!" He walked to the door, and the big shopkeeper bowed and said.
Li Shiming was stunned for a moment. He didn't mean to meet on the third floor.
No matter how unfamiliar he is with Tianshui Pavilion, the grade of Tianshui Pavilion can be judged by just looking at the appearance of the building.
"I have an appointment with someone on the third floor!" he said with a smile.
"Master, please come in!" The shopkeeper put on his most sincere smile and made a gesture of invitation. Then he turned to the man beside him and instructed, "Take the son up!"
The shopkeeper is a sophisticated man, so he didn't doubt Li Shiming's words at all.
Although he didn't know who the party on the third floor was this time, he did know who was the one who booked this floor.
Li Shiming walked into the Tianshui Pavilion under the eyes of everyone outside the door either exploring, scrutinizing, or doubting, and led to the third floor under the guidance of the guy.
"Master, I can only take you here!" The man bowed and smiled.
Li Shiming nodded. He knew in his heart that this was a gathering of monks, and it was naturally impossible for mortals to approach.
The third floor is clear at a glance. There is a hall in the middle, and there are three boxes on each side.
There was no one in the hall, and he guessed that this gathering should be in a certain box.
"Li Xiaoyou is here!" Just as he was about to search in the boxes, a voice came, and then a door of light appeared in front of him.
Through the door of light, he saw many people sitting in the middle of the hall.
The main seat is Gu Jia, who is waving to Li Shiming.
It turned out that the third floor was actually covered by a magic circle, and even if mortals entered the third floor, they would not be able to see the scene of the cultivator gathering.
"I've seen Daoist Gu, I've seen fellow Daoists!" Li Shiming entered the gate of light and bowed to Gu Jia, then clasped his fists and made a circle around him.
His eyes swept across several people at the scene, and found that there were cultivators he knew.
For example, the old cultivator of the Hao family who sells talismans, such as cultivator Deng who sells magic tools, cultivator Liu who sells Lingzhi, cultivator Zhang who sells spell books, and several cultivators who have an impression of Li Shiming but do not know their names.
Of course, there were twenty-six monks sitting in the hall, and he had only seen very few of them.
"Fellow Daoists, this is Li Xiaoyou I recognize, please take care of me!" Gu Jia introduced with a smile.
"Since it was introduced by Daoist Gu, we will naturally take care of it!" A cultivator immediately answered, and the rest of the cultivators agreed.
Only the old cultivator of the Hao family had a hint of doubt when he looked at Li Shiming.
The first time he saw Li Shiming, he felt a sense of deja vu, but he couldn't remember when he saw Li Shiming.
The Hao family made a big scandal some time ago and lost two cultivators, which made the strength of the Hao family drop dramatically.
The most serious one was a third-level Qi refining, and a fourth-level Qi-refining monk was killed at the same time, which made Fangshi panic, and no monks dared to go to Fangshi.
This cultivator gathering was originally a tradition of the cultivators nearby. Meeting Gu Jia on the first day of the new year and sending over the spiritual stones due next year was also a means of deepening the relationship with Gu Jia.
The few sponsored by Fang City did not want any of them to contact Gu Jia alone, which would make one of them sit up and break the original balance.
As for the next year's profits from Fang Shi, it is also helpless to turn in the spirit stone.
If Fang Shi's business is not good, the so many spirit stones that come out will be regarded as filial piety to Gu Jia. If Fang Shi's business income exceeds the original estimate, then at the next meeting of the first day of the new year, the spirit stones that should have been handed in will be made up.
No cultivator will play tricks on this matter. This is not the interest of a cultivator family. They supervise and restrain each other.
"Tell me what's the reason, you want to hold a fair in the city?" After Gu Jia introduced Li Shiming, he continued the previous topic and asked. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
"Fellow Daoist Gu, this is our decision after discussion. After the two monks from the Hao family were killed last time, no monks came to the market. Even the monks who often came to sell items in the market were rumored to be unable to do so due to security reasons. Come here!" Deng Xiu said, spreading his hands.
"Little friend, drink a cup of spiritual tea, this is what I brought from the sect!" Gu Jia smiled and pushed a cup of spiritual tea to Li Shiming, and then turned to look at Xiu Deng with a stern look on his face. : "Tell me what happened?"
Obviously, he knew the thoughts of these loose cultivators. It was estimated that the killing of the two Hao cultivators made them worried and wanted to use his power to rebuild the market.
But the problem is that in the past, Fangshi borrowed his name, but now that Fangshi opened in the city, it was to borrow his strength, which was dangerous.
Although it is extremely rare among the loose cultivators to defeat Gu Jia, most of the loose cultivators who came to the Central Capital joined the sect for themselves or their descendants, and would never offend the cultivators stationed in the Tianhai sect.
But who can say clearly about the Xiuxian world? If Gu Jia takes risks, there is no reasonable explanation.
Li Shiming picked up the spiritual tea in front of him, took a sip, and felt an aura explode from his abdomen, and the spiritual vortex absorbed this spiritual energy on his own.
Feeling the changes in his body, he didn't stop. He poured the whole cup of spiritual tea into his mouth, not even two pieces of tea leaves.
The aura vortex frantically absorbed the explosively increased aura in his body, increasing the amount of aura in his body by more than half. He felt that he was not far from the third level of qi refining.
His eyes couldn't help glowing, what kind of spiritual tea was this, and it suddenly boosted his spiritual power so much, if he drank another cup, he would be promoted to the third level of qi refining on the spot.
