Chapter 819: The Laughing Proud Wanderer
The group left the inn, and the vehicles and horses were already prepared. The female family members were led to the beautifully decorated carriages, while the male disciples waited for their horses on the side. Each animal was dressed very neatly, and the brand new saddles and bridles shone coldly in the sunlight.
It took less than an hour from the time Lin Pingzhi went to report the news to the time Wang Yuanba went to welcome guests at the inn. In such a short period of time, the carriages and horses were able to be prepared so quickly. This alone was enough to make Yue Buqun secretly astonished. This showed the deep roots of the Golden Sword Wang family in Luoyang.
Soon, they arrived at the Wang family residence.
The house was tall and majestic, with a red painted door that was solemn and majestic. The two large copper rings on the door were polished to a bright shine. Eight sturdy men were waiting outside the door with their hands hanging down. When they saw Wang Yuanba coming back, they shouted respectfully in unison: "Master, come back!"
The sound was loud and resonant in the streets.
Passing through the triple ceremonial gate, the gilded relief on the screen wall depicts the scene of Wang Yuanba fighting alone against the eighteen bandits of Taihang.
Yue Buqun stopped at the second courtyard and looked up at the iron horses on the eaves - twelve iron-cast goshawks were flapping their wings as if ready to fly, with blood grooves opened in their beaks, which turned out to be a mechanism for launching hidden weapons.
The black lacquer plaque hanging on the beam of the main hall is nine feet long and three feet wide. The governor wrote the inscription in pine soot ink mixed with gold powder. Below the four large gilded characters, three lines of small regular script recorded Wang Yuanba's deeds of rescuing the victims of the Yellow River disaster. The ink used was cinnabar mixed with rhinoceros horn powder. The handwriting, which was a bit old, had not faded at all.
Yue Buqun looked up at the plaque, nodded slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Wang Yuanba noticed Yue Buqun's gaze, walked forward, and said with a smile: "This is a little praise from the governor to the Wang family a few years ago. It is not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."
Yue Buqun smiled and said, "Mr. Wang is known for his chivalry and righteousness. He is well-known in the martial arts world."
That night, Wang Yuanba held a grand banquet to entertain Yue Buqun and his disciples.
The banquet hall was brightly lit, with dozens of tables neatly arranged and filled with delicacies. The servants shuttled between them, serving tea, water, dishes and wine with skillful movements.
This banquet was grand and impressive. The Wang family not only invited many well-known people in Luoyang's martial arts circle to accompany them, but also many gentry, celebrities, and wealthy merchants. The guests were dressed in gorgeous clothes and talked in groups of two or three. The whole banquet hall was very lively.
Yi Huawei was already very handsome, and this outfit made him look even more noble and elegant. He wore a moon-white robe, a black silk belt tied around his waist, and a warm jade pendant hung on it. His hair was tied on top of his head, and he wore a white jade crown. His face was fair, and his eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were bright.
When the guests heard that Yi Huawei had defeated the head of Qingcheng Sect, Yu Canghai, and other masters of Songshan Sect, and had also eliminated Tian Boguang, a rapist who was hated by everyone in the martial arts world, they were full of curiosity and admiration. When Yi Huawei walked into the hall, everyone's eyes turned to him.
Some impatient young martial artists couldn't help but stand up and want to find out what was going on.
"This must be Young Master Yue!"
A wealthy businessman in a silk robe was all smiles. He took the lead in picking up the wine glass and walked quickly to Yi Huawei. "Young Master Yue, a hero emerges from youth. It is my honor to meet you today. I would like to offer you a toast!"
As he said this, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
Yi Huawei returned the greeting with a humble smile on his face, and took the wine glass: "I don't deserve it, it's all luck, thank you very much, brother."
After saying that, he drank the wine in one gulp.
An old man with a goatee also came over, looked at Yi Huawei with burning eyes, nodded slightly and said: "Young Master Yue is so young, but he has such high martial arts and chivalrous heart. It is really a blessing for our martial arts world! I respect you!"
After saying that, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
Yi Huawei replied: "Thank you for your praise, senior. I still need to learn a lot from you."
For a while, there was an endless stream of people coming to toast him, and Yi Huawei accepted all of them. He looked calm, drinking one cup after another, with a gentle smile on his face all the time.
Yue Buqun, who was standing aside, looked at Yi Huawei with a trace of satisfaction in his eyes. He picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and secretly sighed in his heart that this disciple had made a name for himself in the martial arts world and would surely become the backbone of the Huashan Sect in the future.
Linghu Chong stood in a corner, watching Yi Huawei being toasted by everyone, and he couldn't help but feel a mixed feeling in his heart. Looking at Yi Huawei's current glory, he felt both envious and a little disappointed.
Wang Yuanba sat in the main seat, looking at the lively scene in the hall, feeling very satisfied. He stroked his beard and said to Yue Buqun with a smile: "Brother Yue, today's banquet is to welcome you and the heroes of Huashan Sect, and also to let everyone see young talents like Young Master Yue!"
Yue Buqun quickly stood up and bowed, saying, "Mr. Wang, you are too polite. It is a blessing for me to be appreciated by you all. I am sorry for bothering you during my visit to Luoyang. I hope you will forgive me."
"What are you talking about!"
Wang Yuanba waved his hand and laughed, "My dear brother and you are all honored guests. You are honored to come to my Wang family. Come, everyone, eat and drink well!"
After that, he picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
Everyone responded one after another, and for a while, the hall was filled with clinking cups and laughter.
In this lively atmosphere, Yi Huawei drank one glass of wine after another, but there was no sign of drunkenness on his face. While socializing with everyone, he also paid attention to the movements around him.
He caught a glimpse of Lin Pingzhi in the corner and saw that he looked lonely. He was moved. He found an excuse, got rid of the toasts, and walked towards Linghu Chong.
"Brother, why are you here alone?" Yi Huawei walked up to Linghu Chong and asked softly.
Linghu Chong raised his head and forced a smile: "Junior brother is the focus of the whole place now, I... I won't join in the fun."
Yi Huawei smiled faintly and was about to speak when he heard a slightly provocative voice from behind.
"Young Master Yue defeated Master Yu and Tian Boguang in a row. He is truly a hero born young. But, I wonder if he is exaggerating?"
The person who spoke was Xu Zhen, the chief escort of Longmen Escort Agency, who was sitting at the next table. He was tall and strong, with a somewhat complacent look on his face. In his hand, he held a pure silver wine jug engraved with Persian patterns, which shone coldly under the candlelight.
When pouring the wine, he deliberately slowed down his movements, and with a slight shake of his wrist, a stream of wine fell accurately from the spout of the pot into the jade cup seven steps away, filling the cup without overflowing. This seemingly simple action of pouring wine was actually showing off his deep inner strength.
Yi Huawei turned around and witnessed this scene, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He calmly flicked the edge of the cup with his fingers, and with a "whoosh" sound, the full cup of Bamboo Leaf Green instantly turned into several wine arrows, shooting towards the silver pot in Xu Zhen's hand.
Xu Zhen's face suddenly changed, and he felt a powerful force rushing towards him, which made his palm numb and the silver pot almost slip out of his hand. He quickly used his internal energy to resist and barely managed to stabilize the silver pot.
Chen Bao, the leader of the Luoshui Gang who was watching the fight nearby, couldn't help but burst into laughter. This man was short and fat, with a face full of flesh, and his laughter was full of gloating.
"Longmen Escort Agency is nothing special. Let me give it a try!"
Before the laughter died down, two iron chopsticks suddenly flew out of his sleeves, and went straight to Yi Huawei's eyes like lightning. Yi Huawei's eyes fixed, and just when the iron chopsticks were about to pierce his eyes, his eyes swept to the celadon plate on the table, and two peanuts suddenly jumped out of the plate. The peanuts seemed to be controlled by an invisible hand, and they accurately met the flying iron chopsticks.
With two "pops", the iron chopsticks penetrated the peanuts, and the remaining force did not decrease, nailing straight into the beam. Everyone looked up and saw the peanut crumbs falling, just landing on the nose of the Luoshui Gang leader.
Yi Huawei looked calm, as if everything that had just happened was just a trivial matter. He picked up a piece of crystal braised pork, slowly put it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and said slowly:
"Boss Chen's flying chopsticks skill has reached a certain level."
The sound was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone present.
Chen Bao's face flushed red instantly, and a hint of shame flashed in his eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, as if he wanted to rush up to argue with Yi Huawei immediately, but because it was a banquet at the Wang family, he suppressed his anger and just glared at Yi Huawei fiercely.
At this moment, everyone's attention was drawn to the incident. The guests around were talking to each other and discussing one after another.
Some were amazed at the kung fu that Yi Huawei had just displayed, and how he was so skilled at such a young age; others were watching Chen Bao's reaction, secretly wondering whether this conflict would escalate further.
"This Young Master Yi is truly a man of hidden talents!"
"Yes, at such a young age, he was able to resolve the attacks of Escort Leader Xu and Boss Chen so easily."
"It seems that today's banquet is not just about eating and drinking."
Just as everyone was discussing, there was a sound of dishes breaking in the west wing. Everyone turned around and saw Qingcheng Sect disciple Sima Wei with a furious look on his face. He kicked the stool beside him away, holding the judge's pen in his hand, and limped towards the main table. His right leg was a little lame, and he walked with one leg higher than the other, with a slightly awkward posture, but the hatred in his eyes did not diminish at all.
Sima Wei ran to the main table and slammed the judge's pen in his hand on the ground. He dipped the tip of the pen in the sauce spilled on the ground and drew a striking cross.
He raised his head, stared at Yi Huawei, and shouted loudly: "Yue, if you have the guts, take my Qingcheng Nineteenth Fight!"
Yi Huawei put down his chopsticks and stood up slowly. His calm expression was in stark contrast to Sima Wei's angry face. He turned slightly and bowed to Wang Yuanba, who was sitting at the main seat, and said, "Mr. Wang, I'm really sorry to ruin everyone's mood. But since this brother has such a refined taste, I can't refuse."
Wang Yuanba sat in the main seat, frowning slightly, with a hint of displeasure on his face. But he soon regained his smile, waved his hand and said, "It's normal for young people to be a little angry. But this is my Wang family's banquet, so just stop at a certain point and don't hurt the harmony."
Yi Huawei nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Wang, I know what to do."
After saying that, he looked at Sima Wei again, with a hint of pity in his eyes.
When Sima Wei saw Yi Huawei talking to Wang Yuanba, he felt that he was being looked down upon and became even more angry. He shouted loudly and swung the judge's pen, stabbing Yi Huawei's throat. This move was so swift that the tip of the pen made a whirring sound.
Yi Huawei did not dodge or evade. When the pen tip was about to pierce his throat, he tilted his head slightly, stretched out his chopsticks, and gently clamped the pen tip. He picked up a piece of chicken slices in lotus leaves and put it into his mouth, as if he was doing something very ordinary.
Sima Wei was shocked when his attack missed. He quickly changed his tactics, twisted his wrist, and used the Judge's Pen to cut along Yi Huawei's chopsticks, trying to cut the chopsticks off. At the same time, his other hand formed a claw and grabbed Yi Huawei's wrist.
Yi Huawei gently withdrew his hand, and the chopsticks drew an arc in the air, avoiding Sima Wei's attack.
Seeing this, Sima Wei's attack became more fierce. He used seven moves in a row, each one was fierce and fierce, with a flashing brushstroke that made people dazzled.
However, Yi Huawei was agile and moved his feet lightly, always cleverly avoiding Sima Wei's attacks, and the tip of his pen could never touch the corner of his clothes.
The guests were attracted by the fierce competition and gathered around to form a circle. They held their breath and stared at the two people, afraid of missing any exciting moments.
"This Sima Wei's Qingcheng Nineteen Strikes really has some skills, and every move is deadly!"
"But Young Master Yi is not simple either. He can handle such a fierce attack so easily."
"I don't know who will win this competition."
Sima Wei used the eighth move, "The Prodigal Son Returns", which was his specialty. In the past, countless opponents had fallen victim to this move. He turned his body halfway and stabbed Yi Huawei's chest with the Judge's Pen from a strange angle. The speed was so fast that it was hard to defend against.
Yi Huawei's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and just when the tip of the pen was about to pierce his chest, he suddenly stretched out his chopsticks and clamped the pen tip at an incredible speed. Sima Wei only felt a powerful force coming, and his arm seemed to be clamped by an iron clamp, unable to move.
Yi Huawei held the chopsticks and slowly wrote the word "rain" on the blue brick floor with the judge's brush. As soon as the stroke was made, everyone around him was stunned.
Yi Huawei slowly said, "Although your Qingcheng Nineteenth attack is fierce, the flaw in Songfeng Sword Technique is too obvious, just like the word 'rain', which is the flaw."
Sima Wei's face turned pale and he struggled hard to pull back the judge's pen, but it didn't move at all. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and the anger in his eyes was gradually replaced by fear.
Ten breaths later, Yi Huawei let go of his chopsticks, took a step back, bowed and said with a smile: "Thank you for letting me."
Sima Wei stood there in a daze, the judge's pen in his hand slowly dropped. After a long while, he murmured to himself: "I lost... I lost..."
After saying that, he turned around, dragged his heavy steps, and limped out of the hall.
Everyone looked at Sima Wei's departing back, and no one spoke for a while. After a while, warm applause broke out in the hall.
"Young Master Yi has great Kung Fu!"
“This competition was really exciting and really opened our eyes.”
"Young Master Yi is so young, but he has such profound martial arts and knowledge. He will become a great man in the future."
Yi Huawei bowed to everyone and thanked them, still keeping a humble smile on his face. He returned to his seat, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip of the wine.
At this time, Wang Yuanba stood up from the main seat, cleared his throat and said, "Today's banquet is to welcome Brother Yue and all the heroes of Huashan Sect. We are all friends. I hope everyone can make friends through martial arts like Young Master Yi, and don't hurt the harmony. Come on, let's continue drinking!"
Everyone responded, and the lively atmosphere in the hall returned. But this small competition made everyone present look at Yi Huawei with new eyes.
Yi Huawei knew that his reputation in the underworld would rise to a higher level because of what happened tonight. (End of this chapter)
