I met the dean, took the time to exercise again, and finally accompanied Song Lian to the woman's house for a meal. When he walked out of the woman's yard, Song Lian didn't know how many times he touched her.
With his round belly, he exclaimed, "I have to say, stewed dried cowpeas and dried bamboo shoots really tastes great."
Chen Chao smiled and said, "Yes, my lord, I have eaten eight bowls of rice. If you hadn't bought some rice from time to time, I'm afraid that next time, my lord, you really won't be able to go to this eldest sister's house to have a meal."
Song Lian smiled and said nothing, very satisfied.
"I eat dried cowpeas and stewed dried bamboo shoots every day, even if I give it to an emperor, I won't even change it."
Song Lian finally came to a conclusion, with some pure joy in his voice.
Chen Chao smiled and said, "Having a wife who can cook this dish is the most important thing, right?"
When Song Lian heard this, he immediately looked at Chen Chao and asked, "How long do I have to wait?"
Chen Chao rubbed his head and said with a smile, "Maybe we can't wait long."
He has been here for so many days, and he has actually already seen that the woman has some thoughts about Song Lian, but the woman is thin-skinned. Song Lian should always be the one to speak up about this kind of thing, but now Song Lian must be asked to speak.
, Chen Chao also knew that his immediate boss was still hesitant and undecided.
Song Lian snorted coldly, not very satisfied with such an answer, but still didn't say anything. He just said, "God is very calm these days, everyone is waiting for the Wanliu Meeting."
Chen Chao nodded and said, "I'm waiting too."
Song Lian asked seriously, "Are you sure that a monk from the Liang Dynasty won the first prize? This has never happened."
Chen Chao thought for a while, then smiled and said, "If it were before, I could at least give it a try, but now, I can say give it a try."
Song Lian sighed, "You still have to act within your ability for this kind of thing. Even if you don't win the championship, depending on your potential, you are destined to be an extremely important figure in our Liang Dynasty in the future. Don't think too much."
Chen Chao listened to this
The words were quite touching. Just as he was about to say something, Song Lian lowered his voice and asked, "Are you sure where you can go, the top eight or the top four?"
Chen Chao frowned and said, "What do you mean, sir?"
Song Lian said faintly, "The major gambling houses in Shendu have opened a few days ago. I have some spare money and I want to spend it."
Chen Chao looked at him and was silent for a long time before sighing, "I didn't expect that I looked this way and that, and in the end I couldn't see you clearly."
Song Lian's face didn't turn red, and his heart didn't beat. He said seriously, "How can it be so easy to see these things clearly?"
Chen Chao remained silent.
"Don't be stunned, tell me quickly so I can place the bet. How I live the rest of my life depends on you."

The chirping of cicadas continues to sound, and there are so many summer cicadas on the willow trees by the south lake of the academy. This means that midsummer has truly arrived, and it also means that the most important thing in the divine capital is finally about to happen.
The Wanliu Meeting is about to be held.
This is truly a major event for the entire human race. After all, the establishment of the Ten Thousand Willow Club is, in essence, to discover real geniuses for the human race. Many years ago, most of the young people who shined in the Ten Thousand Willow Club will be
They have all become extremely important figures in the human race.
Although the Wanliu Meeting in recent years has not been taken as seriously as in those years, it is definitely still a first-class important event in the world of spiritual practice.
It was the first time for the Daliang Dynasty to hold such a grand event that belonged to the entire spiritual world, and they had no experience. However, Daliang Dynasty had been preparing for ten years for today, so there was no sense of rush. The venue for the competition had already been arranged, in Xicheng
In front of a lake, construction started ten years ago
, up to now, the facilities are not incomplete.
There are many willow trees by the lake, which are similar to Nanhu. They were planted ten years ago for this day. They also complement the word Wanliuhui. There are some huge rocks not far away, which are quite flat and do not look like they have been trimmed in any way. They look like natural
It's a stone platform.
And these stone platforms are far from just one, but dozens of them are standing on the lakeside. This is the place where the martial arts test will be held later.
Not far from Shitai, there is a hill along the lake, with pavilions on the hill.
Those pavilions are extremely wide. From a distance, they look like a high platform. In fact, they are a high platform. Standing there, you can see the scene of the lakeside.
In those pavilions, there will be big figures from various sects watching the scenery. However, the literary test has always been nothing interesting. It is just about asking and answering questions. No one has always been too interested, but the martial arts test still takes more than ten people.
It was just held today, but today is the day when the Wanliu Meeting begins. Even if the big shots find it boring, they still have to do enough to save their face. Although this year's host is the Liang Dynasty, they don't take it to heart, but
No one wants to lose the reputation of their sect over such a trivial matter.
Therefore, after Chen hour, as the cicadas chirped, several rays of glow rose from the clouds on the horizon, and several figures appeared in the clouds.
These are all the real big names among the monks who came to the capital of the gods. Some are the leader of a party, and some are important figures such as the leader of a sect.
Perhaps it was because the Liang Dynasty held the Wanliu Society, or perhaps because the Wanliu Society had not been as valued as it was in the past few years, and none of the truly top-notch sects had arrived.
No big shots came to watch the ceremony, and no young monks came to participate in the Ten Thousand Willows Meeting.
Several figures landed on the pavilion over there, and the young monks climbed up the steps and went to the area that had been divided in advance.
They are also wondering whether the Emperor Liang of Wanliu Club will be present in person today. If not His Majesty the Emperor, then will it be the envoy?
For such a big matter, a powerful figure must be there to calm the situation for the Liang Dynasty.
Suddenly, there was an exclamation in the field.
Two figures appeared on the lakeside, a white-haired old man in linen clothes and a young girl walking slowly along the lakeside.
Looking at the old man and the girl, the monks quickly became quiet.
So are the big shots.
The realm of old man Mai is too high. He is a Taoist great master and comes from the Taoist Wantian Palace, one of the two branches of the Taoist sect. They cannot help but respect him.
That girl's realm is not high, but her status is too high. No one among the saints of Wantian Palace and the younger generation of monks dare to provoke her.
When people think of the word "provoke", they can't help but think of earlier stories.
Far away in the pavilion, the monks from Laosongshan looked a little unhappy. The two people who had had a dispute with Zhu Xia on the long street were silently hiding in the crowd, not daring to look at the lakeside.
As the sack-clothed old man slowly came to the pavilion, the monks all silently bowed to him, even the so-called big shots.
They all showed great respect.
Zhu Xia, however, kept looking around, as if he was looking for something.

I wrote the first half of this chapter in the morning. I originally planned to finish it soon and post it. I was busy with some things in the afternoon, and the stone in my body came out of my kidney and started to move down. This was originally a good thing, but...
This process is really painful. Friends who have suffered from stones should understand that after tormenting me for several hours, I feel relieved now. That’s it for today. Please forgive me.
This chapter has been completed!
