Chapter 640: Planning
The banquet was held in the west side hall. The prince, with his distinguished status, sat in the north. Ni Zhuo was the host, sitting in the east.
Ni Zhuo had many wives and concubines, but it was inconvenient for them to show up on such occasions, so apart from Ni Zhuo and his daughter, only the five of them attended the banquet.
When we sat down, there were only four cold dishes and four braised dishes on the table. After everyone was seated, the hot dishes started to be served. They were not all served at once, but freshly cooked to ensure that the dishes served were freshly prepared.
Out of the pot.
A total of twenty-eight dishes were prepared for the dinner, but before all the dishes were served, Datou and others were full of wine and food. Seeing how tired they were, they did not keep them in the side hall, but asked them to go back early.
room to rest.
After Datou and others confessed and left, they explained the reason to Ni Zhuo. Previously, Ni Zhuo did not know that they came here immediately after the bloody battle with the Japanese pirates at Gupo Mountain. He learned that they were exhausted physically and mentally and were all injured.
While they were there, Ni Zhuo and Ni Chenyi felt guilty and hurriedly urged them to go back to their rooms to rest.
Ni Mansion has a special courtyard for guests to rest, and they all live in the same courtyard as Datou and others. When they went back, they happened to meet Yang Kai and others returning from feeding the horses. In fact, they were not going to feed the horses, but they were just worried about their horses.
That's why I went to the stables to take a look. In fact, the servants of the Ni family had already helped everyone feed the horses. They knew that everyone's horses were rare and valuable, and they even left a special person to take care of them at night.
Datou also took advantage of the night to bring Miss Bai to Ni Mansion. After feeding, it was already the second watch. He originally wanted to call Shi Xuanming to walk around the streets, but he was too full and did not want to move. In addition, it was too much.
Feeling tired, I gave up the idea and went back to my room to rest early.
I went to bed without washing my face, closed my eyes and fell asleep quickly. At this time, all the Japanese pirates had been wiped out, and the relief grain and grass had begun to be loaded and shipped. Although there were still many troubles, at least there were no urgent and imminent difficulties at the moment.
Things need to be dealt with urgently, and I can finally breathe a little easier.
At dawn, everyone was sleeping soundly, but they were woken up by the noise coming from outside the house, and they turned over.
Listening carefully, I found that the noise came from outside the gate. Someone was shouting in broken Chinese. I just heard that he was the number one master in the Tang Dynasty and came to challenge him specially.
Hearing this man yelling made me really tired. He was not the best master of the Tang Dynasty at all. The reason why Khotan's Protector of the Country said yesterday that he was the best master of the Tang Dynasty was just an exaggeration on purpose to give himself face.
Shang Tiejin, if he beats him, it will show that Monk Fan is very powerful in martial arts. If he loses, it will not be a shame to lose to the best master of the Tang Dynasty.
After finally getting a good night's sleep, I was woken up by someone early in the morning. Not only was I annoyed, but Da Tou and others were also annoyed. Before I could get up, Da Tou ran over angrily, "Who the hell is crying in mourning?"
Worried that Datou couldn't cope with it on his own, Shi Xuanming got up and followed him out. Yang Kai and Yu Yi also woke up, but they didn't open the door. They knew the abilities of Shi Xuanming and Datou very well. Even if the other party was a purple spirit practitioner, they wouldn't be able to handle it.
They are no match for the two.
Not long after, there were howls of ghosts and wolves crying for fathers and mothers from outside the door. Needless to say, the two of them must have done something serious. The others originally wanted to sleep for a while, but this time they were completely sleepless, so they could only get up.
Get dressed and wash up.
When I opened the door, I happened to see Da Tou and Shi Xuanming returning. There was blood on Da Tou's clothes, and the yin and yang wheels were stuck on his left and right wrists respectively and had not been recovered.
"Why are you still using weapons?" he asked casually.
Da Tou was still angry and said, "Damn it, there are not just one, but several of them are queuing up outside, all yelling to challenge you. If you don't kill them all, we don't have to do anything else these days. We're just going to accept their challenge."
"Kill?" He frowned.
"No killing," Datou shook his head and said, "Having a few cuts will make his memory long, and he will think about it one by one.
I want to be famous so crazy, they all want to step on you to become famous, it’s really a small thing that shakes a tree, and you don’t overestimate your own capabilities.”
Listening to Da Tou's words, he said nothing more. As the saying goes, hit with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches. When faced with provocation, the other party must pay the price. If the provocateur is allowed to retreat, countless people will follow suit.
When everyone woke up, the servants of the mansion brought breakfast to everyone. Four large food boxes were filled with vegetables, porridge, rice, soup, meat and eggs, everything was complete.
While everyone was having breakfast in the house, Ni Zhuo came with his servants and brought them the best gold sore medicine and fur cloaks made overnight. The temperature difference between day and night here is very big, so everyone came in a hurry and wore them.
They were all wearing single clothes, and everyone had to rush to Kunlun Immortal Palace next, where the snow never melted all year round and it was very cold.
In addition to the wound medicine and the cloak, Ni Zhuo also brought five hundred taels of gold, which were golden beans the size of soybeans. The people were going to stay in Khotan for a few days. These gold beans were the expenses Ni Zhu had prepared for everyone.
Ni Zhuo also met a grain merchant from Tianzhu today. He was the only one who understood the Tianzhu language, so he had to go and talk in person. After meeting everyone, Ni Zhuo got up and left. Before leaving, he informed Ni Chen that in the following mornings
Yidu has something to do and cannot come to accompany them.
Naturally, he knew that Ni Chenyi was not really in trouble, but Ni Zhuo did not let her disturb everyone on his side too early, because everyone on his side was injured. In the past few days, he not only needed to recuperate and regain consciousness, but also decided on a strategy to deal with the Immortal Palace.
A fierce battle may occur after opening.
After breakfast, everyone drank tea and chatted in the room. Even if it was just chatting, it was not a waste of time and energy without any purpose. They discussed important matters, but it was just a little leisurely.
"My lord, do you think Master Zhang and the others will come over if they hear the news?" Datou asked casually.
"Zhang Mo is sending Tongchen and others back to Shaolin Temple. They are still on the way at this time. She will definitely not come," said
He paused for a while and then said again, "Zhang Shan probably won't come either. Firstly, he is leading the troops and has no time to escape. Secondly, the amulet is a hot potato. No matter who gets it, there will be no peace in the future.
He probably won’t wade into this muddy water.”
After saying this, Yang Kai asked, "My lord, what are your plans?"
Said, "The rule of the competition is to stay on the stage for an hour. In this way, it makes no difference whether you leave early or late. There is no difference between coming alone and coming in a group, because only one person can appear on the stage at a time, and
You can't change people within an hour. To put it bluntly, you can't join forces and you can only fight alone."
Hearing the words, Yu nodded and said, "That's it. Last night, I carefully reviewed the rules of the competition and found that the rules were very carefully formulated and very fair. No one is allowed to take advantage of others."
He added, "The protective talismans are divided into three grades: gold, silver, and bronze, and each person can only play once. Therefore, before the end, those participating in the competition must decide which kind of talisman they want to compete for. It is not ruled out that there will be
For the sake of safety, the masters of Taixuan participated in the fight for the bronze talisman, and it is not ruled out that the arrogant Yelang who has no self-awareness participated in the fight for the gold talisman."
Yang Kai nodded slowly, "Yes, although the competition rules set by the Xian Family are very fair, they are also full of variables."
Da Tou looked up and said, "Your Majesty, let's not worry about what others think. Just tell me how you want to fight?"
"What do you think?" he asked with a smile.
Datou said, "None of the four of us have been promoted to the Purple Qi. It's probably very difficult to grab the silver ones. I want to grab the bronze ones. Each of the four of us will grab one."
"Which one should I fight for?" he asked again.
