Chapter 131 Willows by the Lake

After meeting the dean, he took the time to exercise again, and finally accompanied Song Lian to the woman's house for a meal. When he walked out of the woman's yard, Song Lian didn't know how many times he touched himself. With a round belly, he said with emotion, "I have to say that the dried cowpeas stewed with dried bamboo shoots are really delicious."

Chen Chao said with a smile, "Yes, my lord has eaten eight bowls of rice. If you hadn't bought some rice from time to time, I'm afraid that next time you won't be able to go to this eldest sister's house to eat."

Song Lian smiled and said nothing, very satisfied.

"I eat dried cowpeas and stewed dried bamboo shoots every day, even if I give it to the emperor, I won't change it."

Song Lian finally came to a conclusion, with some pure joy in his voice.

Chen Chao smiled and said, "Having a wife who can cook this dish is the most important thing, right?"

When Song Lian heard this, he immediately looked at Chen Chao and asked, "How long do I have to wait?"

Chen Chao rubbed his head and said with a smile, "Maybe we can't wait long."

He has been here for so many days, and he has actually already seen that the woman has some thoughts about Song Lian, but the woman is thin-skinned. Song Lian should always be the one to speak up about this kind of thing, but now Song Lian must be asked to speak. , Chen Chao also knew that his immediate boss was still hesitant and undecided. .🅆.

Song Lian snorted coldly, not very satisfied with such an answer, but still didn't say anything. He just said, "God is very calm these days, everyone is waiting for the Wanliu Meeting."

Chen Chao nodded and said, "I'm waiting too."

Song Lian asked seriously, "Are you sure that a monk from the Liang Dynasty won the first prize? This has never happened.

Chen Chao thought for a while, then smiled and said, "If it were before, I could at most tell you to give it a try. Now, I can say give it a try."

Song Lian sighed, "You still have to act within your ability for this kind of thing. Even if you don't win the championship, depending on your potential, you are destined to be an extremely important figure in our Liang Dynasty in the future. Don't think too much."

Chen Chao listened to this

The words were quite touching. Just as he was about to say something, Song Lian lowered his voice and asked, "Are you sure where you can go, the top eight or the top four?"

Chen Chao frowned and said, "What do you mean by this, sir?"

Song Lian said faintly, "The major gambling houses in Shendu have opened a few days ago. I have some spare money and want to spend it."

Chen Chao looked at him and was silent for a long time before sighing, "I didn't expect that I looked this way and that, but in the end I couldn't see the Lord clearly."

Song Lian's face didn't turn red, and his heart didn't beat. He said seriously, "How can it be so easy to see these things clearly?"

Chen Chao remained silent.

"Don't be stunned, tell me quickly so I can place the bet. How I live the rest of my life depends on you."

…

…

The chirping of cicadas continues to sound, and there are so many summer cicadas on the willow trees by the south lake of the academy. This means that midsummer has truly arrived, and it also means that the most important thing in the divine capital is finally about to happen.

The Wanliu Conference is about to be held.

This is truly a major event for the entire human race. After all, the establishment of the Ten Thousand Willow Club is, in essence, to discover real geniuses for the human race. Many years ago, most of the young people who shined in the Ten Thousand Willow Club will be All have become extremely important figures in the human race.

Although the Wanliu Meeting in recent years has not been taken as seriously as in those years, it is definitely still a first-class important event in the world of spiritual practice.

It was the first time for the Daliang Dynasty to hold such a grand event that belonged to the entire spiritual world, and they had no experience. However, Daliang Dynasty had been preparing for ten years for today, so there was no sense of rush. The venue for the competition had already been arranged, in Xicheng In front of a lake, construction started ten years ago

, up to now, the facilities are not incomplete.

There are many willow trees by the lake, which are similar to Nanhu. They were planted ten years ago for this day. They also complement the word Wanliuhui. There are some huge rocks not far away, which are quite flat and do not look like they have been trimmed in any way. They look like natural It is a stone platform.

And these stone platforms are far from just one, but dozens of them are standing on the lakeside. This is the place where the martial arts test will be held later.

Not far from Shitai, there is a hill along the lake, with pavilions on the hill.

Those pavilions are extremely wide. From a distance, they look like a high platform. In fact, they are a high platform. Standing there, you can see the lakeside scene.

In those pavilions, there will be big figures from various sects watching the scenery. However, the literary test has never been anything interesting. It is just about asking and answering questions. No one has always been too interested, but the martial arts test still takes more than ten people. It was just held today, but today is the day when the Wanliu Meeting begins. Even if the big shots find it boring, they still have to do enough to save their face. Although this year's host is the Daliang Dynasty, they don't take it to heart, but No one wants to lose the reputation of their sect over such a trivial matter. .🅆.

So after Chen hour, as the cicadas chirped, several rays of light rose from the clouds on the horizon, and several figures appeared in the clouds.

Those are all the real big names among the monks who came to the capital of the gods. Some are the leader of a party, and some are important figures such as the leader of a sect.

Perhaps it was because the Liang Dynasty held the Wanliu Society, or maybe it was because the Wanliu Society had not been as valued as it was in the past few years, and none of the truly top-notch sects had arrived.

No big shots came to watch the ceremony, and no young monks came to participate in the Ten Thousand Willows Meeting.

Several figures landed on the pavilion over there, and the young monks climbed up the steps and went to the area that had been divided in advance.

r>  They were also wondering whether the emperor of Daliang would be present at the Wanliu meeting today. If it wasn't the emperor, would it be the garrison commander?

For such a big event, there must be a powerful figure to calm the situation for Daliang Dynasty.

Suddenly, a cry of surprise was heard in the field.

Two figures appeared by the lake. A white-haired old man in hemp clothes walked slowly along the lake with a young girl.

Looking at the old man and the young girl, the monks soon quieted down.

The same was true for those big figures.

The realm of the old man in hemp clothes was too high. He was a great Taoist master, and he came from Wantian Palace, one of the two Taoist sects. They had no choice but to respect him.

The realm of the young girl was not high, but her status was too high. She was the saint of Wantian Palace. No one among the younger generation of monks dared to provoke her.

Thinking of the word "provoke", people couldn't help but think of the story from earlier.

In the distance of the pavilion, the monks of Laosong Mountain looked unhappy. The two people who had argued with Zhu Xia over the candied dates on the long street hid in the crowd quietly, not daring to look at the lakeside.

As the old man in hemp clothes slowly came to the top of the pavilion, the monks all greeted him silently, even the so-called big shots.

They all showed great respect.

Zhu Xia kept looking around, as if looking for something.

The first half of this chapter was written in the morning. I planned to post it as soon as I finished it. I was busy with some things in the afternoon. The stone in my body came out of the kidney and started to move down. This was originally a good thing, but the process of moving down was really painful. Friends who have had stones should understand that after torturing me for several hours, I am relieved now. This is the only chapter today. Please forgive me.
