Chapter 1264 Acting
"Be careful with your words!" Bing frowned slightly, looked around, and paused when he saw Lin Fan's table.
The square table is also called the Eight Immortals Table, but most of the time, there are rarely eight people sitting at the table.
The table at Xue’s was not small, but it was a bit crowded for two people to sit on one side.
The two extra people at Lingzhen Pavilion were half leaning on the corner of the table so that there was enough space. Seeing that Lin Fan's table was full, they couldn't help but take a second look.
It turned out that although the man and woman at that table were dressed in secular clothes, their looks and temperament were extraordinary, and they were obviously noble and beautiful people.
The people in Lingzhen Pavilion had seen guests who were more powerful than them, but they were all in prosperous cities.
Suddenly in this bustling border town I encountered...
"What's wrong?" Ding followed Bing's gaze and paused. "It can't be..."
Before he could even utter his guess, he heard a "bang" from the other side and a person stood up.
"I just can't stand you being like this, you always look so self-righteous!" Du Xingyu suddenly jumped up, smashed the wine glass in front of Yu Sinian beside him, and said angrily, "We are both disciples of Canghai Sect, what's so great about you?!"
The people around were attracted by the noise, and they all quieted down at once, eating the melons openly.
Yu Sinian brushed off the wine stains on his clothes without moving, slowly turned his head, glanced at the furious Du Xingyu with his narrow eyelids, and "snapped" opened the light-colored paper fan.
"I have money."
"It's not a big deal that you're rich!" Du Xingyu stepped back, raised his foot, and lifted up one end of the bench.
Yu Sinian fell down unexpectedly and was caught by Shen Xiuyuan who was beside him.
"Junior brother..."
Lin Fan wanted to applaud Du Xingyu for his quick response, but he also suspected that this was an opportunity for him to vent his long-standing anger towards Yu Sinian.
She stepped on the foot of Mu Jingjing, who was confused and trying to stop the fight, and gave her a chicken drumstick: "Eat."
"You have to help him too!" Du Xingyu's already red face turned even redder, his voice almost cracked, he pointed at Shen Xiuyuan like a grouchy woman, and then glanced at the other people at the table. "You all help him! Just because he's rich?! He keeps saying he's rich, but he can't even open one more table. You've all been bought by his petty profits and you don't even know it!"
"But when we go out, he is the one who takes the responsibility." Ao Hen smiled and quickly found his role. "Isn't it normal to listen to him? If Junior Brother can also take care of our food, clothing, housing and transportation, we will also listen to you. Right?"
After saying that, he slapped Ling Yichen on the back, who didn't want to participate.
"Yes." Ling Yichen endured the pain and was forced to take part in the performance.
"You guys!" Du Xingyu's eyes turned red, "You snobbish guys! Since we have all entered the Canghai Sect's immortal gate, everything should be judged by our cultivation level. How can you still be blinded by those money-grubbing things!"
"That's not what I meant." Shen Xiuyuan still maintained his character, stood up and inserted himself between Du Xingyu and Yu Sinian, as if he wanted to separate the two. "But our Canghai Sect has been in decline for many years. If it weren't for this money to support it, I'm afraid the sect would have been extinct long ago."
He pulled Du Xingyu towards the table of people at Lingzhen Pavilion and coaxed him in a low voice: "You know that the head of the sect is supporting him for the money."
"He has no spiritual roots anyway, and has no ability other than money. By the time you become a spirit being and ascend successfully, he will have already become a bowl of dirt. Why would you be angry with such a person?"
Du Xingyu shook off his pull, walked a few steps to the side, and stood on the aisle next to Lingzhen Pavilion: "I just can't stand him pretending in front of my junior sister!"
After saying that, he glared at Yu Sinian with a jealous look on his face. Between Mu Jingjing and Lin Fan, he quickly chose Lin Fan, who had a faster reaction, and gave her a dog-licking smile.
Lin Fan didn't expect to suddenly take on such a script, but Du Xingyu had already laid so much groundwork, and the attention of people from Lingzhen Pavilion also turned to Du Xingyu, so she had no choice but to cooperate and continue the performance.
"Humph!" She raised her chin, turned her head away disdainfully and didn't want to look at Du Xingyu, and smiled at Yu Sinian, "Brother, you have status, wealth, and a handsome face like Pan An, and you are also tall. Who wouldn't like such a refined and polite aristocratic demeanor? Senior sister, oh?"
"Ah, ah!" Mu Jingjing's leg was gently touched by Lin Fan, and she smiled sweetly at Yu Sinian, "Yes, yes..."
Du Xingyu instantly became like a wilted flower, squatting on the ground with his head buried in his arms. "Junior brother, junior brother!" Shen Xiuyuan circled around and pulled his arm, whispering to him, "Junior sisters are still young, it's normal to be deceived by that guy. When you become successful in the future, are you still afraid that the junior sisters will not see your goodness?"
"Really?" Du Xingyu's voice buzzed out, as if he was crying.
"Of course it's true! If you get promoted soon and reach the foundation-building stage, you can also be a manager. If you get promoted to the golden elixir stage, you will be an elder of our Canghai sect! Is there anything you want by then?" Shen Xiuyuan squatted beside him and advised in a seemingly low voice, but the voice could be heard clearly by the two tables around him.
"He's rich, isn't he? Let's spend his money, spend it hard. Why make it so hard on ourselves? Right? Spending all his money is also a form of revenge. When he has no money left, what will he have to show off with?"
Du Xingyu raised his head and looked at the sinister expression that Shen Xiuyuan was trying to suppress. He was speechless inside, but still pretended to be convinced on his face.
"Brother, you are right!" He clenched his fists. "Only those who can endure what ordinary people cannot endure can become the best! When I become successful, I will not forget your kindness in giving me advice today."
"Why are we brothers talking about this?" Shen Xiuyuan patted his shoulder with a smile and pulled Du Xingyu back.
Du Xingyu went back to sit next to Yu Sinian with his head down, then turned around and shouted to the shopkeeper who was standing at the kitchen door and watching, asking him to add a few more dishes.
"Eat your food!" Shen Xiuyuan called out to his fellow disciples at the table, and then bowed to apologize to everyone around him, "Sorry! I'm sorry for interrupting your meal."
Through their conversation, everyone knew that these people were Canghai Sect monks. Although they were disciples who had just entered the sect, there was still a difference between immortals and mortals, and they had not actually lost anything, so they all politely replied that it was okay.
The restaurant soon became lively again. Everyone continued their previous topics or quietly discussed the commotion they had just caused.
There was still no sound at Lin Fan's table, as everyone ate their own food. The atmosphere of a quarrel that had just ended and had not yet been resolved filled the entire table.
"Canghai Sect?" Ding asked in a low voice, "A small and unknown sect, right?"
"Yes." After watching the whole show, Bing didn't know whether to laugh or cry at his previous angry vigilance. "It's a poor family in the south. The sect is not far away. The leader is only at the Golden Core level. It is said that in order to make a living, he will accept anyone as long as they have money."
"No wonder." Ding nodded, glanced over there, picked up a dish with chopsticks, and smiled. "Look at this table of young disciples, each of them has their own thoughts, even if they don't focus on cultivation, they can imagine what the Canghai Sect is like."
The others also laughed and shook their heads, looking at the immature young men who were still in the cold war, teased them a few times, and then returned to the previous topic.
"Don't complain." Bing picked up the wine pot and poured wine for everyone. "The reason why we did this trip is also for a different reason. I heard that at the previous auction, a team was killed and their goods were intercepted outside the city."
"What?!" The others were hearing this for the first time and were all surprised.
"Hush!" C reminded them, "The higher-ups are afraid of losing face, so they kept it secret. I also found out about it accidentally."
"Is there anyone who dares to intercept Lingzhen Pavilion's goods?" Ding leaned closer to the table and whispered more quietly, "What did they lose?"
"It doesn't say," C also came closer and spoke in a very low voice, "but I guess the treasure key is very likely lost."
"No wonder!" A finally understood, "That's why they sent out so many teams and asked us to sneak over and check it out. Is it to confuse people?"
"It could be that the willing ones took the bait." Ding smiled and asked C. "Do you know where the key was lost?"
"I don't know." Bing shook his head. "Anyway, with so many people released, the person behind the scenes may not be able to find the correct answer accurately."
"That's right." Ding nodded. "Our journey was pretty uneventful. We didn't encounter any unusual situations."
"That's right!" B said with a big mouth, "Don't you see who our previous dealer is? It's not that easy for someone to take advantage of us."
"Keep a low profile," Bing smiled with narrowed eyes, glanced at the young disciple of Canghai Sect who was not to be feared, and took a sip of wine. "Keep a low profile."
It’s blooming!
Let’s enjoy the night-blooming cereus and cactus flowers together.
