sword sentient beings

Chapter 690

"It turns out this is a swordsmen's conference." Tang Zhao already knew it in his heart when he walked through the corridor.

Just like a swordsmith who forges his first sword will hold a sword-making conference, a warrior who becomes a swordsman, or a swordsman with potential as a swordsman, will hold a special conference and invite guests and friends to celebrate.

Maybe it's not worth celebrating among big sects and powerful forces, but in a place like this where a wealthy family has two swordsmen from one sect, why isn't such an honorable event worthy of a big event?

No wonder we have to hold such a big party every year, invite so many artists, and spend so much money.

Swordsman...

Just a year ago, this word still had a heavy weight in Tang Zhao's heart, but now it was as light as the wind.

The number of swordsmen under him once numbered in three figures.

What's that called? People are walking all over the street.

It’s really this moment and that moment.

Tang Zhao thought to himself that the protagonist of this conference is the young master, which is the highlight of the show. The performance in the hall is just the background sound, and no one even cares about the guests.That's good, then there won't be anything wrong.Just work hard and wait to get money.

The only variable is whether the young master can successfully become a swordsman.Although his success rate has nothing to do with the artist's income, it does affect the artist's income.If it succeeds, of course the master will be happy. Doubling the reward is a trivial matter. If it fails, it will be a big bad luck. It will be fine if the person is not kicked out.

It should work, right?
If we are not [-]% sure, how can we get so many people to see it?As arrogant as Xue Xianyun, he was so good at making swords that he asked his disciples to hold a sword-making conference.Since such a wealthy family has a good reputation, they would not want to slap the world in public.

The birth of a swordsman is also a good thing. The devil is overwhelming, and the world always needs a steady stream of new blood.

Tang Zhao thought so and continued to look for the hall's stage.

It should be said that this carriage house is not small. The courtyard has winding corridors and endless views. There are also trees, flowers and plants, and the scenery is good.

But when it comes to management, it's a mess.Although the Che family has many servants, they obviously have no experience in dealing with so many guests. In addition, in order to build momentum for his younger son, Mr. Che opened the door to welcome guests. As long as decent people bring some congratulatory gifts, they can come in and have a drink. .Therefore, the house was full of guests today, and the number of visitors clearly exceeded their reception capacity.Even if the guard used the official weapons for personal use and called in many inspectors to help maintain order, it was still not enough.The most obvious thing is that people are coming and going in various courtyards, strangers are running around, and there is no one to guide and stop them.

Looking at it like this, it's not surprising that the Che Mansion was missing something after the banquet.

Holding a conference is not that simple.

But the good thing about Tang Zhao is that he can walk around the house without attracting attention.

It’s not entirely unattractive…

"Ah, Brother Tang..."

Well, who knows me?

Isn’t this title someone from Sui’s class?
Tang Zhao changed his mind instantly, and when he looked back, he saw a young man with handsome features standing behind him.

Familiar, but not that familiar.

Fortunately, Tang Zhao's memory was pretty good and he said, "Brother Yue Lai?"

This young man attended the Jingzhe Villa Conference with him and went to Bai Yujing's Yuelai together.

After coming down from Bai Yujing, Tang Zhao said goodbye to him, remembering that he returned to his own sect in Youzhou...

Oh, this is Youzhou.

After all, they are acquaintances, and the reunion is considered a happy event. Tang Zhao smiled and said: "Brother Yue, are you okay? Are you here to witness that this young master has become a swordsman?"

Yue Lai smiled and said, "It's just by the way. This young master Che is a fellow disciple of mine. When he had the opportunity, he sent letters to several of our familiar disciples. I was doing a sect mission nearby, and I thought I could have a free meal." What's wrong with this? That's why I'm here, but you, why are you here in Youzhou?"

He respected Tang Zhao very much. Firstly, his life was saved by Tang Zhao. Secondly, he had seen Tang Zhao's power. He was in awe of him. He also wanted to get closer to him, so he smiled and said: "Since you have come to Youzhou, Why don't you contact me? I am also a local snake. I will accompany you around, eat special snacks, take a look at the scenery, and save you a lot of trouble. "

These are purely polite words. The two of them don’t even have contact information. Where can I find you?
Tang Zhao smiled and said: "It was a coincidence. I heard that a few friends were here, so I came to visit."

Yue Lai said: "Your friends are my friends, and my friends are friends of the Che family. Come on, let's go look for him together."

He was so enthusiastic that Tang Zhao couldn't help but ask him, "Where is the stage for singing?"

Yue Lai asked: "Which one? There are six stages set up here. There are big plays, drum music, and juggling. You can watch any one you want."

Tang Zhao said: "Then let's play drum music."

The corner player in Sui's class is a drummer.Yue Lai said: "When I came, the big stage in front was inviting a drummer to sing. He was good at singing and handsome. He got a lot of praise."

Tang Zhao smiled and said: "It's very possible, then show me there."

Although they are all guests, and they all come to the table to have wine, not every guest deserves to be in the main hall.Not even the front yard necessarily.

There were only eight tables of wine in the main hall and the left and right halls in the front yard. The banquet was sumptuous and expensive, and all the guests were respectable.

Yue Lai is a member of the Yanyun Sword Sect and has a good background. Naturally, he can be in the main hall, but he is not at the main table.

Most of the people at his table were of similar status to him, and they were accompanied by the young master Che Yu.He introduced cheerfully: "Everyone, let me introduce to you, this is from Yunzhou..."

Just as he was speaking, he saw that Tang Zhao had turned to look at the stage.

Opposite the main hall is the stage, where you can sing operas or perform folk arts. At this time, there was a woman singing drums on the stage, and an old man played the strings for her.There was also a teenage girl who played for her.

This female Drum Master has a good voice, clear articulation, and even if her appearance is not very stunning, she is still pretty.

However, the level of Zhenron's singing can only be said to be not bad, not amazing.

Especially the old man who plays the strings is very mediocre. Not only can he not support the singing, but he also hinders his performance. This makes this drum book just listenable to the ears of experienced nobles. It is not worth the money to just use it as background. The sound is just fine.

Why is Tang Zhao so focused?

It was because Yue Lai didn't have the skills to interpret fan diagrams that he couldn't see the emotion and joy in Tang Zhao's eyes. He didn't even notice that what Tang Zhao was staring at was not a beautiful woman, but a bad old man pulling the string.

If others were distracted during his introduction, he would be a little dissatisfied, but Tang Zhao was an exception. When he saw that Tang Zhao was distracted, he immediately turned around to smooth things over and said: "This friend of mine is not simple. If I had not saved my life when I went on the adventure, , where is today?”

Anyway, I said it first, he is very important to me and is my savior.No matter how he behaves, if you don't like him, you have to give me face and pretend that you can't see him.If anyone is looking for trouble, it's like slapping me in the face, and I will turn against him.Everyone, please be patient.

In fact, if he wants to point out that Tang Zhao is a swordsman, or even a young swordsman, who would be dissatisfied?But that would be too much noise, and he wouldn't poke it open without Tang Zhao's permission.In particular, Tang Zhao was from Yunzhou. In these days, the feudal lords and territories were closed to each other, which inevitably caused the states to become more divided.The states that are separated by each other are not in harmony. Some people may think, what are the masters from Yunzhou doing in our Youzhou?
Of course, the less trouble, the better.

Sure enough, he embraced him. His status in the sect was not low, so everyone naturally wanted to give him face. They said politely: "It turns out to be Brother Tang. I have admired him for a long time."

Of course, it's not that he wasn't happy when Tang Zhao was distracted. It's not rude to be rude, so if you're unhappy, you'll be unhappy.

Even though Yue Laizai is a direct descendant of the sect and has always acted tyrannically, can he still control the unhappiness of others?
At this time, Tang Zhao finally came to his senses and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I was just fascinated. Everyone, Haihan."

The people at the table were all young people, so it was okay to see Tang Zhao say it.Especially when the young master Che Yu was here, he didn't say anything, and the others couldn't say anything either.

After all, Che Yu will soon be a swordsman. Although they are still on equal terms now, it will be different after today.Whoever takes this step first among this generation will surpass their peers and gain the top position for a while.If others don't have the chance to catch up quickly, they may be under him for the rest of their lives.

Really, obviously Che Yu is not particularly outstanding, and he is not as valued as Yue Lai in the sect. If his family hadn't found a suitable sword for him because of his rich and powerful family, how could he have jumped to the top? ?
It's nice to have money!

The young master Che said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, your accent is not from the local area, so coming all the way to celebrate is also a way of giving me face. Since you like this girl -"

Tang Zhao raised his eyebrows, thinking what are you going to do to my Sister-in-law Sui?
Young Master Che continued: "Here, I'll give you ten taels of silver, and I'll send you a box of snacks and a jug of wine."

Tang Zhao thought to himself that this was a good idea. It would be too blunt to give him money when they met soon. But if the reward is what they deserve now, they will naturally accept it all, and said: "I will also reward ten taels."

Young Master Che thought, is it really because of Niuer?What have you seen that a girl of this caliber deserves to be admired?But for Yue Lai's sake, he still said: "This is all rewarded by Master Tang. I will ask that girl to come down and sit down and have a drink with you later."

Tang Zhao said: "No need to come over, I'll go backstage later."

Young Master Che said: "That's okay."

After saying this, his face was saved, so he said nothing more and turned to talk to others.Tang Zhao also smiled. After tasting Youzhou's banquet dishes, he could only say that the taste was salty and the craftsmanship was average.

After the drum song was sung, the woman took the string master down, and Tang Zhao also stood up and said, "I'm going backstage."

When leaving the table, I saw a group of people escorting a long, flat box inlaid with gold and treasures to the main hall. The shape of the box was undoubtedly that of a sword.

The guests thought the same thing, and they all stretched their heads to look sideways. Although they only saw the box, they couldn't help but look at it twice, as if they could make some connection with it.

Tang Zhao was not interested. He had seen a lot of swords, and he still had a lot of good swords in his hands. What's more, if he wanted to be able to cast one for fun at any time, it was better to go see Uncle Sui and the others.

However, when he passed by the box, Tang Zhao couldn't help but look back:
Is there really a sword in here?

The box doesn't look like an insulating material. Why didn't he feel such a high inspiration?
