Apart from Mo Bai and his party, there were only Mr. Li, Li Xiu and Li Ling'er in the entire back hall, and the other clan members had no chance to participate.
As the head of the Li family, Li Xiu naturally wanted to attend this banquet, and because Li Ling'er knew Mo Bai, the old man also asked her to come with him.
At this time, the old man changed his clothes. After an afternoon's rest, he felt refreshed and energetic, and the smile on his face never stopped.
He took a look at everyone and found that everyone was here. He waved his hand and said: "Since everyone is here, let's serve the food quickly and don't let them go hungry."
Li Xiu tilted his head slightly, then nodded. Behind him, a middle-aged man immediately understood and waved to the side.
I saw a beautiful woman in dark pink clothes, holding a plate in both hands, walking slowly and quickly towards the hall, wisps of cigarette smoke drifting out from her body, it was the food on the plate.
Rise with heat.
Before they put it down, the entire hall was already filled with these fragrances, even the woody fragrance was covered up.
The woman placed the plate in her hand on the long table in front of everyone, then stepped back very respectfully, then turned and walked towards the small door to leave.
Mo Bai looked at the food in front of him. The dishes were very good, including meat, vegetables, and soup. However, due to the limited space on the table, there were only three meats, two vegetables, and one soup in total.
He looked at the others and found that everyone had the same dish.
At this time, Yichen was sitting next to him, and behind him was Nuo Xi, who was looking at the dishes.
Mo Bai smelled it. The meat and vegetables were very fragrant, but there was no spiritual fluctuation. The only difference was the soup. He picked up the spoon and turned it around, and the pure smell became thicker.
stand up.
Everyone didn't do anything, they just sat quietly. Mr. Li hadn't asked them to start yet, so it would be a bit disrespectful for them to eat now.
Mr. Li glanced at everyone and said quickly: "Eat quickly! If you don't eat the food, it will get cold."
Mo Bai and others started to eat. Su Fei and others were okay, but Shang Yu lost his grace a little. He picked up a large piece of meat and put it into his mouth. His mouth was stuffed with meat and he still sighed: "
It smells so good!”
Mo Bai also smiled helplessly. He looked at the contents of the soup with a spoon. In addition to the chicken, there were also some auxiliary medicines. These had no spiritual power fluctuations, only the small piece of medicine he saw at the end.
"Is this... blood ginseng?" Mo Bai asked in surprise. The color of ordinary spiritual ginseng is dark yellow. Since it is in the soil, it has a smell of earth elements.
But blood ginseng is different. Blood ginseng has a light red color based on dark yellow, and it tastes like blood, so it is called blood ginseng.
But he couldn't smell the blood of blood ginseng. After looking at it, he realized that the smell of blood ginseng was covered by the medicinal materials in the chicken soup, so he couldn't smell it, otherwise it would affect his appetite.
"This soup looks very tonic! It also has blood ginseng." Mo Bai exclaimed.
Mr. Li smiled and said: "Mo Bai has good eyesight, and he can see it even with blood ginseng. There are several medicinal materials added to it. You young people are always busy, so you should take a good supplement."
Mo Bai took a sip and immediately felt a heat entering his body, spreading to his limbs, and filling every part of his body.
The spiritual power moved the inner alchemy in the body, and the inner alchemy suddenly started to rotate. The green light emitted soothed the heat and turned it into a clear stream.
Mo Bai just needs to enjoy it slowly, and the inner elixir will help him refine these spiritual powers, while others need to continue to refine these spiritual powers.
Slowly enjoying the banquet, Mo Bai and others were talking and laughing, and the entire back hall was immersed in joy. Li Xiu looked at the old man, he had not seen the old man smiling so happily for many, many years.
Slowly, the look he looked at Mo Bai became softer and a little strange. It was really not easy to reach this level at such a young age.
It was getting late, the banquet was coming to an end, everything on the table in front of everyone had been cleared, and dinner had been finished.
"Senior, it's getting late, so we won't stay any longer." Mo Bai said respectfully.
Hearing this, Mr. Li looked outside the gate and saw that it was indeed very late. Unknowingly, they had eaten for so long.
He looked a little reluctant and said, "Why don't you stay a little longer?"
Mo Bai was stunned for a moment. In fact, he was a little reluctant to meet such a compatible person with superb swordsmanship. It was hard to make a decision for a while, so he turned his attention to Li Xiu opposite and let him make the decision.
Li Xiu also noticed Mo Bai's gaze. He glanced at the old man first, then shook his head slightly and imperceptibly, his deep eyes telling Mo Bai not to stay.
Mo Bai understood what Li Xiu meant, looked back at Mr. Li, and said: "Senior, I have been disturbing you for a long time, and you can't disturb me any more."
Mr. Li sighed. He couldn't stay even if he wanted to, and he couldn't stop him. However, he was indeed very happy at tonight's banquet, especially because the joking between Mo Bai and his friends reminded him of his youth.
"Okay! But before I leave, I have a gift to give you." Mr. Li said, and he waved lightly to the side.
Suddenly, several women came in with a square plate and placed the plate on the table in front of them. It seemed that they had been waiting there for a long time. Except for Li Xiu, everyone else had it, and Li Ling'er also had it.
When everyone took a look, they saw that there was a spiritual ginseng placed on the plate. The surface of the spiritual ginseng was smooth and clean, and the spiritual power inside was very strong, far beyond what the academy gave.
"I enjoyed this meal very much. Thank you very much for your company today. This is the best medium-grade ginseng. You must accept it. Ling'er, you should also accept it!" Mr. Li said with a smile.
Shang Yu picked up the spiritual ginseng and couldn't put it down. He gave each of them a spiritual ginseng. This Li family was really generous!
Su Fei cupped her hands and said, "Senior, this gift is too precious for us."
"Just accept it! If you have already taken it out, there is no reason to take it back." Su Fei was interrupted by Mr. Li before she could finish speaking.
When Su Fei heard this, she had no choice but to accept it, and then looked at Mo Bai. Mo Bai's performance today was logically impossible to be the same as them.
Mo Bai looked at Fang Pan. Like the others, his was a spiritual ginseng, but unlike others, his was pure and pure. It was light blue and very cold, as if it was frozen.
"Mo Bai, this thousand-year-old jade ice ginseng is of the highest quality. You must keep it, but there are many people coveting it!" Mr. Li said solemnly.
Mo Bai had heard of the thousand-year-old jade ice ginseng, which was considered to be at a low level among many high-grade elixirs. But when he suddenly took out a high-grade elixir, Mr. Li was really brave to take action!
He originally wanted to refuse, but when he thought that the old man would definitely not take it back, he had no choice but to accept it.
Li Xiu looked at this thousand-year-old jade ice ginseng and felt heartbroken. There were only a few high-grade elixirs in the entire Li family, so Mr. Li directly gave one of them to Mo Bai.
But it had to be this way, after all, it was rare for the old man to be so happy, and losing a thousand-year-old jade ice ginseng was nothing.
Mo Bai raised his hand, and a spiritual force wrapped the thousand-year-old jade ice ginseng and put it into the Qiankun bag. Then he stood up and bowed his hand to Mr. Li.
"Thank you, senior. It's getting late, so Mo Bai won't stay any longer."
Others also stood up and bowed to Mr. Li, preparing to leave.
"I'll see you off!" Mr. Li stood up and prepared to go up to see Mo Bai and the others off.
"Senior, stay here." Mo Bai said respectfully.
Li Xiu glanced at Li Ling'er next to him. Li Ling'er understood immediately and hurriedly walked to Mr. Li's side. Although they still looked very energetic, they were just afraid of something unexpected happening.
Mr. Li hurriedly stepped forward and escorted Mo Bai and others all the way to Li's gate. Only then did he feel relieved.
Compared to the back hall, the gate was much deserted. There were only two people guarding it. They were still the two from the afternoon. When they saw Mr. Li, they were a little surprised and their expressions became respectful.
"Senior, there's no need to give it away anymore," Mo Bai said with a smile.
"That's it! Ling'er, send the old man back to rest." Li Xiu said calmly.
Li Ling'er nodded with a smile, and then pulled Mr. Li back. The latter seemed reluctant to let go, but he was still pulled back by Li Ling'er.
Li Xiu, on the other hand, stood still. Mo Bai saw that Li Xiu hadn't left yet, so he didn't leave in a hurry to see if there was anything wrong with him.
After Mr. Li walked away, Li Xiu looked at Mo Bai with a hint of apology in his eyes and said: "The old man is over a hundred years old, let him have a good rest!"
Mo Bai could also see it and said: "Mo Bai understands. Senior, you are also caring about the old man by doing this. If senior has nothing else to do, then we will leave first."
"If you have time, come and see the old man more often. Li's door will always be open to you." Li Xiu said, his voice was very gentle. Not only his voice, but Mo Bai also saw Li Xiu's eyes.
gentle.
He could tell that Li Xiu's words came from his heart.
Other family heads showed themselves to be aloof, but Li Xiu was approachable, which also made Li Xiu leave a good impression on Mo Bai.
After several people left, Li Xiu slowly walked to Mr. Li's room. At this time, Mr. Li was lying on the bed and resting, while Li Linger was watching from the side.
Seeing Li Xiu walking in, Li Ling'er hurriedly went up and bowed his hands and said: "Master of the family."
"How's it going?" Li Xiu said softly.
"It looks like he was tired. He fell asleep as soon as he lay down." Li Ling'er whispered, for fear of waking up Mr. Li, who was sleeping soundly.
"My father is over a hundred years old, and his physical strength is constantly declining. He should pay more attention to him. In addition, according to my observation, Mo Bai is not a bad kid. I want to have a good relationship with him and bring him to see the old man more when I have time. I have already
I haven’t seen my father so happy for a long time." Li Xiu said.
