Chapter 51: Chapter 51
Tong Shangyan ran to open the door, and when the door opened, it was Yan Yu and Yuan Min.
Yan Yu got straight to the point, saying that there was a meeting within the Special Administrative Bureau, and Yin Tangfeng was invited to attend.
Yin Tangfeng responded, told Tong Shangyan to say a few words, and followed Yan Yu to the meeting, while Yuan Min happened to stay with Tong Shangyan.
The two chatted for a while, and it was almost time for dinner, so they knocked on the doors of Wang Lifeng and Sun Bin, and called them to go to the restaurant on the first floor.
During the Special Trade Fair, the large restaurant in the accommodation building will provide a buffet at regular intervals. The restaurant is located on the far left side of the building and can accommodate about 5000 people to dine at the same time. Since the number of people coming to the Special Trade Fair this time is far from so large, the restaurant is only open by the window The side with the better view.
There is also a small restaurant on the upper floor of the big restaurant, which is specially used for big bosses to open small stoves.
When they arrived at the restaurant, they saw that Lu Linglan and Li Lai had already sat down by the window for two people, they wisely didn't disturb them, and just found an empty four-person seat.
People came in one after another in the restaurant, some in small groups, or scattered. Tong Shangyan knew nothing about the metaphysics circle in Yu'an City, except for the Qingshan faction that he met once before, he didn't know any of them, but After watching too much, I gradually figured out a little bit of knowledge. There are still quite obvious differences in the clothing of each sect.
Take the Qingshan school as an example, everyone’s clothes are more formal, and the color is more crow blue; there is a school that is all plain and wide-sleeved Tai Chi clothes; One school is black and white.
Moreover, those sects with uniform costumes all have the same symbol on a certain position of the clothes. Tong Shangyan guessed that this should be the symbol of the sect, just like the cloud pattern symbol of Yunjin Temple. It is said that on the formal robes, the cuffs and The hem has a circle of embroidered cloud symbols.
Seeing more and more people coming to the restaurant, Wang Lifeng and Yuan Min gave him and Sun Bin two rookies a "class" to give them some confidence.
There are [-] sects that are eligible to participate in the special exchange this year. However, there are actually only five sects that are competitive and worthy of the name: Qingshan sect, Yuan family, Tianque palace, Tianchi temple and white family.
The relationship between Qingshan faction and Tangdi is the closest, so there is no need to introduce it; Yuan’s family is Yuanmin’s family, and they haven’t arrived yet, and they are expected to go to the island in the afternoon; Tianque Palace has already heard its name when Tong Shangyan got to know Shi Yu. , the group of disciples in the restaurant wearing Tai Chi uniforms with gray silk threads embroidered with gossip on their chests are people from Tianque Palace.
Tianchi Temple and Bai Jiatong Shangyan heard it for the first time, wearing navy blue Taoist robes, growing hair and wearing a crown, and a rectangular jade pendant around their necks. Those Taoist priests sitting near the entrance of the restaurant are from Tianchi Temple. Zhendao and Yunjinguan are two factions with strict rules and regulations.
The Bai family is good at magic circles, and the current patriarch, Mr. Bai, is one of the best. It is a pity that the Bai family is not prosperous, and belongs to a sect with few people. This time it is also the least number of people among the five sects. It is worth nine people. The clothes they wear It is more casual, there is no school logo on the clothes, and the color is mainly beige.
Another family that was famous but rarely visited was the Hu family that Tao Zhou followed.The Hu family has a unique family of secret skills, which is why they can be ranked in the Yu'an metaphysics circle. Unfortunately, the descendants of the Hu family are not very up-to-date, and they are not good at learning skills. Now it's all in vain.
Yunjinguan is also considered famous among the eighteen sects, just like the Yuan family, it is on the road.Yunjinguan has a small population, and they don't have any intention of being competitive. Every meeting is a matter of participation.
The rest of the clothes without obvious characteristics are either casual cultivators or young sects, and some of them are members of the Jiuhuazong branch.
The head of the branch of Jiuhua Sect in Yu'an City, and the current helmsman of the family have not yet released five clothes, so the relationship is relatively close. Although the strength of the branch is not good, but the number of disciples is quite large. The number of people is there. , the Special Administration Bureau is willing to make friends with it.
After Wang Lifeng babbled about these sects, he glanced at Yuan Min, and said cautiously: "Although the Yuan family is Xiao Yuan's family, you should try not to provoke him. Mr. Yuan is a traditional person, and he has a bad impression of our studio. You have met the Yuan family. People who can go around go around."
This was actually a bit harsh, but Yuan Min only pursed his lips and smiled when he heard it, and didn't refute.
Tong Shangyan knew that Yuan Min and his family were having a bad time, but he didn't know the specific reason. After he entered the studio, he didn't have much contact with Yuan's family, so he didn't want to inquire about it. Now that Wang Lifeng brought it up, because of the situation , he had no choice but to keep his doubts in his heart and remember Wang Lifeng's advice.
The rest of the big and small sects or famous casual cultivators have neither good nor bad relationship with Tangdi, they are all casual acquaintances, so it is good for each of them to keep their faces polite.
Tong Shangyan and Sun Bin kept nodding their heads in resignation.
Wang Lifeng was half full, drank some wine, became interested, and was about to talk to the two of them in depth, when he heard a quarrel broke out in the dining area.
The two quarreled, one was Tianchi Temple, the other couldn't tell from the clothes, but from what he said, it should belong to Jiuhuazong.
The two young men seem to be young, and the content of the quarrel is quite trivial. It is nothing more than this dish that I took a fancy to first.
The two parties were arguing red-faced, completely oblivious to the fact that they had become the focus of the entire restaurant, until someone on both sides persuaded them to leave, and this little turmoil passed.
Tong Shangyan said that they were sitting not far from the place where they had just quarreled, and while they could hear the content of the two young men's quarrel clearly, they could also see them clearly.
When the crowd dispersed, Wang Lifeng smiled and introduced the two victims just now: "The one in Tianchi Temple is the young apprentice of the temple master, and he belongs to the same family as Tong, and his name is Tong Yang. His strength is directly proportional to his temper. Look at how fierce he was just now." , how hard it is to beat someone up."
"Have you seen it?" Tong Shangyan glanced at the direction of Tianchi Guansi, and couldn't believe that such a thin young man was actually a ruthless character.
Wang Lifeng closed his eyes and nodded slowly: "Two years ago, there was an upstart with a lot of money and a lot of stupid people, and he invited several companies to drive out ghosts at home. The bridge of the nose and three ribs were broken with bare hands."
Tong Shangyan gasped with a toothache, and Sun Bin clutched his stomach feeling like he couldn't eat anymore.
"Nine, what about the Jiuhuazong?" Tong Shangyan drank his saliva and suppressed his shock. Anyone who dared to quarrel with the irritable boy is probably not a fuel-efficient lamp, right?
"The suzerain's son." Wang Lifeng quickly revealed the secret, "The ability... I heard it's okay, but I don't know if it's true or not."
He stopped to take a sip of the red wine, and then said: "If you don't pinch now, you will have to pinch tomorrow. At the test of courage, these two will probably avenge their old and new hatreds together. Hehe, we will have a good show then."
A bunch of question marks popped up on the heads of the two rookies who heard the new words. Wang Lifeng was a little drunk and didn't pay attention. , and began to simulate the actual operation in the afternoon of the next day.
There is a special practice field on the island. Before the team enters the field, tasks will be selected, and finally the selection will be made according to the completion of each team's tasks.In the past few years, a team of five was used to break through the level. I don't know if the rules have changed this year.
The practice field has artificially set check-in points, and there are low-level monsters, wandering spirits, magic circles, etc., because the simulation practice takes a long time, and it always ends in the early morning. , everyone privately called it the Test of Courage Conference. "
Sun Bin recalled the scene, and laughed out loud, "The name is really appropriate."
The three laughed when they heard the words, and the atmosphere at the table became more relaxed again. Wang Lifeng remembered what he planned to tell them in detail before, and "instructed" his little assistant Sun Bin to bring him some food and drinks.
Sun Bin walked towards the dining area without hesitation, but because he walked too fast, his feet slipped, and he threw himself on a young man in a linen jacket, and the plate in the young man's hand fell to the ground. smashed to pieces.
This sound attracted everyone's attention after the quarrel just now. Although Sun Bin grinned in pain, he knew that he was at fault and apologized to the other party immediately.
The young man whose meal was overturned had dark skin and medium-length hair, combed in a bun on the back of his head, and his forehead was extremely smooth.His face was expressionless and his outline was deep. Even a light-colored forest suit couldn't cover up the hostility emanating from his body.
Sun Bin was intimidated by his cold eyes, and his voice of apology became weaker and weaker. The black-skinned young man grabbed his collar with one hand, and the other hand seemed to be about to drop a fist, so scared that Sun Bin raised his hand to cover it.
Fortunately, someone nearby came out to persuade the fight and held the hand of the black-skinned young man, and Tong Shangyan and Yuan Min who found out that something was wrong rushed over in time, the black-skinned young man let go of Sun Bin with a cold face.
The two crossed their legs, and Sun Bin, who was already frightened, was walking back, when someone next to him sneered, and said in a strange way: "Tch, Tangdi's people, no wonder..."
Tong Shangyan immediately went to look for the person who spoke, but there was no trace. Then he went to look at Yuan Min, and saw him shaking his head to himself, signaling to take Sun Bin back first, and then realized that he probably already knew who the speaker was.
As soon as he returned to his seat, Tong Shangyan couldn't help asking him: "Did you hear that sentence just now? Who said it?"
Yuan Min nodded and said, "It's Bai Ce, the eldest son and grandson of the Bai family."
"He...why did he say that?" The studio is like a new home to Tong Shangyan. His own home is looked down upon, and clay figurines have a temper.
After confirming that Sun Bin was not injured, Yuan Min rubbed his forehead and explained with a headache: "Bai Ce has a high talent for cultivation, besides the Bai family's magic circle, he is also quite proficient in other Taoism.
He is younger than Brother Feng, and after he became famous at a young age, he is often compared with Brother Feng, and his character... is quite arrogant, and he has been compared a lot, so..."
Needless to say, you can guess the following words. How can a genius boy with a second-school attack allow himself to be overwhelmed by others?It is an inevitable result not to like Yin Tangfeng, and it is easy to understand that Hate Wu and Wu don't like Tangdi Studio.
Tong Shangyan: ...
"Didn't it mean that the relationship between our studio and this group of orthodox sects is still on good terms? Why do you still bring mine?" Sun Bin rubbed his knees and cast a resentful glance at Wang Lifeng, beginning to have doubts about his previous words.
After Sun Bin's fall, Wang Lifeng's mind was completely sober, and he didn't think about the free drinks or the food and drink, and his expression became serious: "They are all respectable sects, and they are always kind on the surface. What is the discord behind the scenes?" Can you make it clear in a few words?
Although the special trade fair is a serious matter, but these people who come here... don't they know people, know their faces, but don't know their hearts?
Bringing you here this time is also to keep your minds open. After all, you have been in this industry since the day you entered the studio. "
He flicked his finger on the table, but threw it like a huge chunk onto the calm lake, splashing water in the hearts of Tong Shangyan and Sun Bin.
