Chapter 429

Chapter 429: Hosting a Banquet

Donglin City is the largest city within hundreds of miles!

Because it is close to the coast, it has the reputation of being a city by the sea.

Zheng Zhi and Xia Qiuchan arrived at Donglin City.

The city is majestic and magnificent, reaching a height of twenty feet.

On the city wall, there are guards patrolling back and forth.

They paraded with guns in large numbers, numbering in the thousands.

And on the city wall, there are steel cannons mounted one after another. The muzzles of the cannons are as big as heads, and their power can be imagined.

It is indeed a place of one city, so dense!

"What are you doing wearing a veil?"

Zheng Zhi turned his head and glanced at Xia Qiuchan, who was wrapped up tightly, and said: "We are not here to do anything sneaky, why should we be secretive?"

Xia Qiuchan: "..."

"What exactly are we going to do?"

She couldn't help but ask.

From the beginning to now, Zheng Zhi has been trying to sell things off, which makes Xia Qiuchan, who is not very patient, feel itchy and unbearable.

"Calm down, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

Zheng Zhi smiled lightly and remained calm.

When he said this, he deliberately lowered his head and glanced at Xia Qiuchan's "tofu".

The girl seemed to feel the gaze of a certain man, and her pretty face turned as red as a cloud.

"rogue."

He cursed hard and looked away.

At this time, Zheng Zhi also regained his composure and said, "You should have a way to contact those members of your family, right?"

"Brother Zheng Zhi, what do you want to do?"

Xia Qiuchan looked at Zheng Zhi with confusion on her face.

"Have a banquet."

Zheng Zhi smiled slightly: "I said, we are not here to sneak around."

"As the saying goes, be polite first and then fight. Since you are going to use swords and weapons, then naturally you must first meet the elders of your clan."

Xia Qiuchan: "..."

Zheng Zhi did not explain too much and strode directly into the city with Xia Qiuchan, who was full of anxiety.

The Deer and the Cauldron!

Donglin City's premier time-honored restaurant.

Because its signature dish "Griddle Pot Venison" is a specialty in Donglin, "Deer and Ding Ji" has a booming business every day, and there is never a shortage of diners who come here to visit.

It is said that even warriors who have long since tasted this dry-pot venison will find it difficult to quit the worldly fireworks after having a taste of it...

Zheng Zhi had just arrived at this kind of place, so naturally he didn't know about it.

However, Xia Qiuchan was born and raised in Donglin, so finding such a famous place to eat was not a problem.

It just so happened that Zheng Zhi had not smoked or eaten for a long time, so naturally he couldn't miss this opportunity.

He raised his head and looked at the three-character signboard "The Deer and the Cauldron".

Zheng Zhi couldn't help but be a little curious.

Normally, a coastal city like Donglin should be rich in seafood, but this so-called dry-pot venison actually takes the top spot in the food world.

This alone shows how extraordinary it is.

Curiosity aroused, Zheng Zhi led Xia Qiuchan in.

He was not short of money, so he directly ordered a private room and served all kinds of famous dishes.

"Notified?"

As soon as he took his seat, Zheng Zhi turned his head and looked at the girl beside him.

Hearing this, the girl nodded: "Before entering the city, I crushed the family's unique messenger talisman. Those rebellious people should know it by now."

"Then let's wait and see."

Zheng Zhi smiled slightly.

Immediately, he didn't ask any more questions, crossed his legs, and looked at ease.

At this moment, the waiter brought the dishes to the table.

Looking at the fragrant dishes on the table, Zheng Zhi smiled and said, "I haven't tasted Dongzhou's food yet, but I think the presentation won't disappoint me."

The venison has all five colors, and the light rising gas is like clouds, giving people a hazy feeling.

Under this fragrance, Zheng Zhi's whole body was shaken.

Without hesitation, he picked up his chopsticks and took a bite.

After a while, he said: "Not bad."

Such an intoxicated taste made Xia Qiuchan roll her eyes.

What time has it been and are you still in the mood to taste delicious food?

But Zheng Zhi obviously didn't care about this. He picked up the silver exquisite wine bottle from the table, filled it up for himself, and drank it all in one gulp.

"You can't eat meat without wine. This wine is sweet and delicious. It's just right for eating venison. Try it?"

Zheng Zhi handed the wine in his hand to the girl beside him.

"I can not drink."

Xia Qiuchan shook her head and refused.

She is not as big-hearted as Zheng Zhi.

Seeing that Zheng Zhi was eating deliciously, she couldn't help but ask: "Brother Zheng Zhi, are you so sure that my second uncle and the others will come?"

"Don't worry, not only will he come, but he will come in person."

Zheng Zhi smiled.

"Why?"

Xia Qiuchan was stunned.

"Because of confidence or curiosity."

Zheng Zhi put a piece of venison into his mouth and said: "This is Donglin, and it is also the territory of your Xia family. If you are meeting him for dinner so openly, you must be relying on someone, and they just want to see how much you rely on."

Xia Qiuchan wanted to say something else.

But at this moment, Zheng Zhi suddenly put down his chopsticks and stared at the door of the box: "Here we come..."

Xia Qiuchan's expression changed and she quickly followed Zheng Zhi's gaze.

Several figures come into view.

The leader is a handsome middle-aged man dressed in white robes.

This person is none other than Uncle Xia Qiuchan, the current head of the Xia family, Xia Guangchuan!

"I'm still wondering, with her temperament, how could my niece have the courage to invite me to dinner openly? It turns out she has something to rely on!"

The man in white spoke calmly, his eyes locked on Zheng Zhi.

After just looking at it for a few seconds, he withdrew his gaze and said, "But how can this guy with no hair even grow make you so confident?"

Xia Qiuchan's beautiful eyes were full of hatred, and she said angrily: "Xia Guangchuan, my father trusts you so much, but you betray him, how safe is your conscience?"

"Haha, conscience?

How much is a conscience worth?”

However, facing Xia Qiuchan's angry rebuke, Xia Guangchuan laughed loudly: "When people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. I, Xia Guangchuan, don't want to be a mere second elder for the rest of my life!"

"Niece Qiu Chan, if you recognize me and surrender, you are a direct descendant of the Xia family after all. I can spare your life."

Xia Guangchuan was outgoing and aggressive.

A powerful aura swept through the entire box, revealing the power of the Dharma Realm.

"You actually broke through the Dharma?"

Xia Qiuchan's expression changed.

In a place like Donglin City, there are only a handful of Dan Dan realms, but the Dharma phase realm is enough to dominate the place.

Even his father, at his peak, had only reached the peak of Dan Dan realm.

"This meat is good, would you like to try it?"

But at this moment, an inappropriate voice suddenly sounded.
