Chapter 331 Falling Flowers Intentionally
The welcome dinner at Hongshan College is different from other places: outside the main gate of the south of the courtyard, the director-level magic master personally welcomes the guests, and there are senior mentors and student representatives on both sides, dressed up to cheer. The guests greeted the guests in front of the door and then signed in to enter the venue. If you are interested in developing your connections, you can also share a compliment with the teachers and students of Hongshan College. However, such people do not have any real talents and knowledge, and it is difficult for teachers and students to maintain a good face. Only those who are famous and have extensive connections can chat with the masters in front of the door.
Compared with the golden signboard of Hongshan Academy, the tradition of going out to welcome guests is a clear proof of the hospitality of Hongshan people. Compared with the fact that Baiye City seems cold and arrogant. No matter the status of the banquet, no matter the status of the people, they must hold invitations to the venue guided by the guards.
However, this year, Hongshan College was extremely hospitable. The person who welcomed the guest at the south gate was no longer the director of the college, but the famous master Zhu Junshen.
This gray-haired and second-handed man in the world had no concerns about condescending nobleness. He stood outside the south gate himself and smiled enthusiastically at the guests who were constantly coming and going. Then he spoke warmly when the other party was flattered. Not only did the Grand Master achieve profound magical attainments, but his ability to welcome and send off was also extraordinary. Often, in one word, he could tell the guests' life proud deeds. Even if they were relatively mediocre, the Grand Master would inspire him as an elder.
Such an approachable attitude and knowledgeable knowledge of the world and the world are beyond words, which makes people admire him so much that he can do as much as Zhu Junshen? For a moment, the master appeared around him like a sage. The devils and Taoists from all over the world rushed to the Grand Master, just for a good word and a smile, and were overjoyed and grateful.
Only the college parliamentary giants who stand next to the master as their background will turn their attention to the secretary-general who hides his traces like a shadow behind the master from time to time.
The great master does have an almost omnipotent abilities in the realm of the Demonic Realm, but the one who truly knows the world is the one who can tire of daily trivialities. This is really a disadvantage for teachers and students to cooperate.
Of course, parliamentary giants will not really become a background board. When the master is crowded, they will come forward to divert the guests and show their magical powers to talk to the guests.
In any case, you must also block these guests!
The fanatical atmosphere outside the South Gate made most guests unaware that when they were having a happy group chat, the established dinner time had long passed...
Zhu Junshen, while playing the role of the South Gate God, blocking everyone outside the door, he was busy asking his beloved disciple who was on the front line in the blurred domain.
"Is Ying Ruoying not doing well yet?! What are you doing??"
Then Yuan Shi adhered to the duties of the juniors of the students and responded politely: "You don't have water in your mind, so you should know that you have time to waste your mouth and ask her directly if you have the best time!? I also want to know what she is doing!"
"Nonsense, if I could contact her, why would I ask you? She would have been out of the confusion!"
The grand occasion outside the south gate was really unexpected. Because one of the protagonists of the dinner, Princess Ying Ruoying, stopped in the basement of the Old Yulou Tower, ignored the grand exchange dinner!
The protagonist is absent, how will the banquet be held? Moreover, the situation of the eldest princess is unstable, who can have the leisure to drink and eat? What's more, besides Ying Ruoying, there is another master who is not in the state. In a helpless manner, Zhu Junshen personally visited the south gate, blocked everyone outside the door on the grounds of welcoming guests, and forced the dinner to be held.
But this move was just a temporary solution after all. No matter how great the master's face was, it was not as great as the people's gradual gurgling belly... When Zhu Junshen became more and more anxious, he heard a faint laughter outside the crowd. The laughter seemed like an iron attack in the harmonious south gate, which made him frown.
Maybe that person is here... It's really like it raining all night.
"Hard work, please give it up..."
"Oh, isn't this the Speaker of the Demonic Council of the Great Qin Empire? What wind has blown you? Has the fragrant wind of dinner and food blown to Baiye City?"
"That, I'm here to participate in the academic exchange..."
"Sir Speaker, now that the development of human demon civilization has encountered another bottleneck, the number of apocalypse has not increased for a long time. If you don't pay attention to such major issues that concern the world, is it considered to be incompetent to participate in academic exchanges at the sub-regional level? "
"Take both, both need to be taken into account..."
"Sir Speaker, are you taking into account both free meals and enjoying your presence? I heard that the bonuses from the Parliament headquarters this month cannot be paid out again?"
Chen Siwen was immediately embarrassed: "There is no certain amount of bonuses..."
Then there were some difficult words, such as "give less bonuses and more blessings." "Wolf culture" and so on. For a moment, the crowd was filled with joy.
In the eyes of many demon priests, the Daqin Demonic Taoist Council has long been an absolute joke. People like Chen Siwen who are wandering around are also an absolute joke. If they are content to support their elderly care in Baiye City, everyone will be at peace, but for various considerations, or the pressure of Baiye City, Chen Siwen always wants to do something "ordering the world" in the name of the parliament. Sometimes they call on the Daqin Demonic Taoist priests to practice frugality, carry forward the spirit of hardship and simplicity, and sometimes they call on people all over the world to gather ideas to overcome an incredible magical problem... They are obviously just a miscellaneous fish with no real power, but they will jump out from time to time to wave flags and shout, and Chen Siwen's reputation can be imagined.
But Chen Siwen has been the speaker for many years and knew that there was nothing to say to these people. She just lowered her head and responded to her colleagues' jokes in embarrassment, while walking straight towards Zhu Junshen.
Amidst a burst of laughter and scolding, Chen Siwen finally squeezed into Zhu Junshen, before speaking, shook his clothes seriously, and said solemnly: "Masters of the sequel, why is the dinner delayed?"
As soon as this question arises, the warm atmosphere of Hongshan College working hard at the South Gate suddenly stagnates, and people suddenly realize, yes, where is the dinner?
Zhu Junshen was also convinced and criticized many parliamentary giants under his command in the blurry realm, "Aren't you letting you stop him?"
So the senior mentors who held important positions in the college council had to complain one after another.
"Sir, this person is so thick-skinned that he is comparable to the original poem!"
"We have almost sprayed our saliva on his face. Even if he was cuckolded by the royal family 20 years ago, he was completely indifferent!"
"For him, verbal humiliation is like being reset to zero, and we can't do anything about it."
"And Master, you said you should fight with literature and not fight with martial arts? We can't just beat him up."
Zhu Junshen was helpless when he heard this.
This Chen Siwen is really a dog-skin-like character, which makes people feel a headache.
This is a person who came uninvited and could not stop him outside the door... After all, he was also wearing the golden signboard of "Da Qin" on his head. Although his influence was small, his "level" was not low. He had to eat with a stern face. Hongshan Academy did not drive him out like a beggar.
After all, when I needed this institution that could represent the "Da Qin" to wipe my butt, Hongshan Academy was not polite. It was at this time that Zhu Junshen felt that the institution of the Da Qin Demonic Parliament was really more harmful than good, and it was better not to have it.
But at this time, I really can't let Chen Siwen be a mess here.
The Grand Master personally came forward and led many giants of the council to block guests from all over the world at the southern gate, just to ensure that the dinner was carried out "as usual". As a result, Chen Siwen made the good situation turn yellow as soon as he came forward.
In a sense, this is really a character comparable to the original poem.
The Grand Master suppressed his impatientness and responded: "The exchange dinner for the demon priests is just a situation. What is important is that the person attending the banquet can gather ideas and speak freely. Compared with the word "dinner", communication is more important. As for where to communicate and whether there are good wines and delicacies as supplements during communication, it is a secondary issue."
These words immediately made many people nod in confusion.
It is right. Everyone traveled thousands of miles to Hongshan Academy. Of course, it was not because they wanted the superb skills of the chefs in the college. They saw that this was a rare feast of academic exchanges. Many rare big names would show up in public. Unlike those "communication meetings" where big people like to impersonate the snakes, this time with the Holy Yuan people as a catalyst, the demon masters of Qin must have shown their true abilities.
Such a grand event can be said to have long surpassed the scope of Qin State and its academic value is immeasurable. In comparison, let alone chatting and laughing with the great master outside the South Gate, even if you eat mud in the black swamp of the border county, everyone is willing to do so!
Chen Siwen was unmoved and even felt a little angry. He couldn't hear that Zhu Junshen was using beautiful words to perfunctory himself. The problem is that you can be perfunctory to the "Chairman of the Daqin Demonic Council" and can you still perfunctory to the Shengyuan people?
"Where is the Shengyuanren?"
As soon as this statement came out, the atmosphere around us changed again.
Yes, why didn’t you see the Shengyuanren?
Zhu Junshen had a headache even more.
The Shengyuan Ren...of course, he tried every means to stabilize it. Now he should drink herbal tea in the banquet hall while watching the educational documentary "Two Thousand Years of Hongshan" that was just filmed in the previous two years. According to the latest news from the on-site staff, the Shengyuan Ren had clearly seen it on the verge of the outbreak, just like a man using sphincter hardness to croton liquid, the situation was in jeopardy.
If it weren't for their leader Xu Bolian's temporary physical discomfort due to "unexplained reasons", he did not attend the banquet in time, resulting in the fact that the Shengyuan team had no leader, and the Shengyuan people would have had a attack on the spot.
However, after Chen Siwen reminded him, Zhu Junshen also knew that the delay tactics finally had their limits.
After all, Hongshan’s 2,000-year films are only 3 hours, so the on-site staff can’t be replayed again... And to be honest, the film was full of shame. The ending was Zhu Junshen personally starred in the chapter with the leader of the great rejuvenation of Hongshan Academy in the new era, and the praise for the master of the number from beginning to end... Then he cheated ten times the budget from the college’s finance department, which was the proud work of the general planning of the original poem in the last chapter.
With a hint of helplessness, Zhu Junshen had to bite the bullet and wave his hand: "In order to take care of the pretentious Shengyuan people, I have to ask you to move to the banquet hall for the time being. The college has prepared good wine and good dishes, so let's have a chat while eating!"
Cheers were everywhere for a moment.
After all, no matter how grand the academic event is, it cannot be eaten as a meal. After all, the guests have been talking at the South Gate for so long, and they have been hungry and thirsty. Moreover, in some remote areas, there is indeed a legend about Hongshan food. It is said that a once handsome and beautiful master of magic, who was once disfigured by the temptation of delicious food, gained tenfold in just a few years, and then entered the realm of masters in one fell swoop. This kind of delicacy that can be called a strange thing in the world is certainly not to be missed!
If you really want to break through the bottleneck of the master with food, let alone gaining weight ten times, you will be willing to even have symptoms such as weight gain and hair loss and hemorrhoids all happen!
At the greeting of the great master, guests flocked to the academy and followed a special person to the home court of the banquet. Only Chen Siwen looked solemn and stood in front of Zhu Junshen, and he wanted to speak but stopped.
Zhu Junshen didn't have time to play this couple game with him, "Guess why I'm not happy" and said impatiently: "What else does Speaker Chen have to do with you?"
Chen Siwen moved his lips, but he still wanted to speak but stopped.
Zhu Junshen waved his hand and said, "It's good if there isn't, then goodbye." After that, he was about to leave.
Chen Siwen was shocked and had to speak: "Master, I must be underestimating Hongshan Academy, but this time I deal with the Shengyuan people, it is useless to take advantage of opportunism!"
As soon as this statement came out, Chen Siwen was like a flood discharge dam opened by the floodgate, and he kept talking.
"I was worried that your Hongshan Academy did not pay enough attention to this matter. I claimed that my achievements in the past two years were slightly higher than those in Baiye City, so I didn't take the Shengyuan people seriously... They came in a fierce manner, but they lost their aura when they were hit by the eldest princess in Dongli City. But how profound is the foundation of the Shengyuan Demonic Dao!? This academic group is not the most elite team of Shengyuan, but along the way, under the leadership of Master Xu Bolian, the so-called academic exchange has already succeeded.
One-sided crushing momentum! Shengyuan's wanton criticism of the Qin people's demonic civilization is certainly rude, but he often hits the point in his words, making people feel heartbroken but helpless. Such skills are definitely not something that can be dealt with by opportunistic skills! Whether you show off your wealth or the acrobatics in the Sky Arena, you have not left the category of "opportunity". Just such tricks of carving will only encourage the arrogance of the Shengyuan people!"
Chen Siwen was furious when he said this: "Even if you Hongshan people don't like Baiyecheng, you should always shoulder the obligation of being a Qin people. In the exchange meeting of Baiyecheng, we Qin people have lost once, and Hongshan exchange meeting is not to be lost. Do you think that if Baiyecheng loses, you can lose again? It doesn't matter if you are a big mistake. On the contrary, Baiyecheng can afford to lose, but you Hongshan people really can't afford to lose! After all, the capital of Qin is Baiyecheng, and the status of your Hongshan City is not so legitimate!"
Speaking of this, it is almost alarmist, but if it weren't for this, Chen Siwen really didn't know how to convince these blindly arrogant Hongshan people to face reality.
He had already enjoyed the "wonderful performance" of Hongshanren in the Sky Arena before.
Unlike most people who were optimistic after the game, Chen Siwen was heartbroken after watching the game.
First, Chen Siwen never expected that the Hongshan people would use this strange trick to deal with the Shengyuan people... They ignored the long history of Hongshan City that had been preserved for 1,800 years, and put the glorious tradition of the Western Continent for more than two thousand years since the immigration era. Instead, they took advantage of the opportunity to use a snow mountain person to win face for their own family!
Not to mention the "scam" of fighting the Qin Jin generals alone is too much or too much. Chen Siwen doesn't think that Bai Xiao is really capable of confronting the Qin Jin generals head-on for two rounds, and only subconsciously classifies it as the Hongshan people's trick. Even if Bai Xiao is really capable, what can it mean? Did the Shengyuan people come to Qin people to fight with the Qin people by force? If so, it would be fine, because His Highness the eldest princess has won a game for Qin in Dongli City. But the Shengyuan people are here to "academic exchange"!
How do you plan to let that snow mountain man have an academic exchange with the Shengyuan man? How to polish bone spears, or exchange your experience in hunting in the North?
As for another person from Snow Mountain, Qing Yue... I haven't produced any outstanding achievements for so long. Obviously, the Demon Princess is not worthy of her reputation, and Hongshan Academy is not willing to make a big announcement. What's more, even if Qing Yue is really talented? At the dinner, the Shengyuan people asked you about Hongshan Academy's teaching experience, and you answered: Go to the Snow Mountain to dig the source of students?!
It has simply lost all the reserve of human demon civilization for two thousand years!
Secondly, Chen Siwen used all the savings he had finally saved outside the arena to bet on the Qin Jinjiang to win all the victory...
In order to take into account the face of the "Daqin Demonic Council", Chen Siwen insisted on living in Xinhu Restaurant. In the past two days, he has really been short of money for dinner. This dinner... he has to attend.
He came uninvited without being invited. If there was no reliable topic of conversation, Chen Siwen was really worried that Hongshan people would simply turn against each other and kick him out of the party.
So even if he didn't speak well at this time, he couldn't care.
"Master, please face the reality! Faced with the advantageous civilization of Shengyuan, we Qin people are indeed at a disadvantage! Therefore, we can only overcome difficulties smoothly by doing our best and walking on thin ice. Now is not the time to worry about "reservedness" and "face", and the first priority is to overcome the tribulation! Fortunately, I followed academic exchanges all the way and had some experience of the common tricks of Shengyuan people. Time is limited, so I will tell you carefully..."
Chen Siwen said while carefully observing Zhu Junshen's face. As expected, although the old man was actually about the same age as Zhu Junshen, no one was qualified to say that there was a hint of anxiety on his face.
Sure enough, the Hongshan people were actually just trying to calm down, and their hearts were already burning on fire. I think so, the Shengyuan people came in full force, especially Xu Bailian, after being suppressed by the eldest princess outside Dongli City, not only did they not bend it, but instead became even worse in the speech field! He had the level of a master and the advantage of Shengyuan's magical cultural heritage, and was invincible all the way in the Qin State.
Perhaps the Grand Master himself can suppress Xu Bailian, but what about the Shengyuan people behind Xu Bailian who are like wolves and tigers? How confident is Hongshan Academy to suppress?
But this time, the eldest princess supervised the battle on the spot. If the Hongshan people really did not fight well, the pressure they had to face would not only come from Shengyuan.
Perhaps Bai Yecheng has no way to deal with Hongshan Academy directly, but the eldest princess won the power of life and death against Hongshan Academy from the Chiyu Island Conference that year! If the highness saw that Hongshan people were ugly in front of the Shengyuan people, she would probably be even more ruthless than the Shengyuan people!
So Grandmaster, please be a little more panicked, and then I can sell out the "trick tricks" that I have been thinking for a long time, in exchange for several years of operational funds for the parliament... No, the Hongshan Academy dares to show off its wealth in front of the Shengyuan people. It is obvious that it has made an incredible fortune recently. It is not waiting for a price to be sold at this time. It is simply a pity for my decades of poverty!
However, just when Chen Siwen was already thinking a lot, Zhu Junshen sighed slightly and said to Xukong: "I understand, Master Xu Bolian is sure that he can't attend the banquet. That's a pity."
"Ha!?" Chen Siwen was stunned for a moment, feeling that the whole world seemed to collapse.
Xu Bolian is not here!? What the hell is that bastard doing? This is the best opportunity for you to show off your power, do you want to miss it for nothing?
And it’s fine if you miss the opportunity, what should I do with my brilliant ideas?! What should I do with the operating expenses of the parliamentary headquarters? And what should I do with my pension!?
No, don’t panic, things have not reached the point of despair. Even if Xu Bolian does not appear, the Shengyuan people will be depressed. There will be another variable in the banquet... The eldest princess Ying Ruoying!
As we all know, the relationship between Ying Ruoying and Hongshan Academy is extraordinary and subtle. If Xu Bolian attends the dinner, Ying Ruoying will probably watch the wall and wait until one side falls into a disadvantage before making a worse. However, if Xu Bolian does not attend, the Shengyuan people have no leader, and it is difficult to threaten the Hongshan Academy where there is a master in charge. Then... Ying Ruoying's attitude is hard to say.
With the willfulness of the princess, it is very possible to help the Shengyuan people teach Hongshan people a lesson!
But I have already made full preparations for this moment. My tricks include not only the plan to deal with the Shengyuan people, but also the plan to deal with His Royal Highness the Princess!
After all, Chen Siwen is the perfect Bai Yeren. When the eldest princess had not yet achieved her magical enlightenment, he was already witnessing her takeoff. Only some elderly Bai Yeren could know the many little secrets about the princess!
Chapter completed!
