After Qi Xuansu's speech, no matter what the people below thought, there was bound to be thunderous applause.
If you move a little bit on the seats, you can also cover up the past with unintentional mistakes. If you really want to be silent and use this almost public way to slap Qi Xuansu in the face, the first person to be slapped is not Qi Xuansu's face, but Shi Daren's face.
Because it was Master Shi Da who decided to award Qi Xuansu the title of Friends of Dao Palace, Friends of Dao Palace can be regarded as an achievement promoted by Master Shi Da. When Qi Xuansu spoke, he also made it clear at the beginning that Master Shi Da asked me to prepare, and I am sincerely frightened.
If after Qi Xuansu’s speech, the audience treated him with indifference, were you targeting Qi Xuansu? Or were you targeting Master Shi Da rather than drinking? Do you think Master Shi’s decision was wrong?
In any case, Qi Xuansu is from Beichen Hall and cannot control them. This is one of the reasons why they are confident. Master Shi Da is different. As the master in charge of the palace, he can actually decide the future of some people, life and death, and even more
Needless to say, Master Shi Da is still one of the members of Jinque Xiaoyi.
However, Qi Xuansu can be sure that there will soon be rumors that he, Qi Xuansu, is too arrogant, looks down on the people in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, and even uses his past experience as an excuse. After all, Qi Xuansu's experience in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace is not very outstanding.
As for the award, it can only be said that it is quite satisfactory. His truly outstanding experiences came after leaving the Wanxiang Taoist Palace.
Even though Taoism has been transformed into Confucianism for so many years, the idea that all people are inferior and only those who study well is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
This set is still very powerful. It first demonstrates that Qi Xuansu's performance in Wanxiang Taoist Palace is not good, and then raises a question, since Qi Xuansu's performance is not good, why did he get promoted so quickly? From this, we can draw a conclusion, it must be a privilege.
If you worship your godmother and hug Master Donghua’s thigh, can you not rise quickly?
Then there is a reason to criticize and slander Qi Xuansu, thus erasing all Qi Xuansu's efforts and achievements.
There is a logic in this: academic performance directly determines the height of life. People who are good at academics must also be good at becoming officials. If they do not do well, it must be because the general environment is not good.
This is really the opinion of a scholar. Transforming what you learn from books into practice and applying what you have learned is not just about talking, it also requires a certain amount of ability. You can only learn but cannot use it, that is studying to death.
.
So the real reason is that people who are good enough are good at anything, including reading, being an official, fighting, etc. And some people are just suitable for reading exams, but not good enough.
Because these people have certain similarities and overlaps in their studies with those who are good enough, they mistakenly think that they are also good enough. When those people who are good enough soar into the sky and they cannot get ahead, they begin to blame others.
There is no shortage of people like this in the Taoist palace who can read but are not good enough.
Qi Xuansu doesn't care about this. There are many people who slander him, including these few.
When the title of Friend of Qi Xuan Su Dao Palace was awarded, it was time for a banquet.
Because the Chinese-style banquet was too serious and the hierarchy was too strict and clear, which was not conducive to showing the approachability of real people, it was changed to a more relaxed Western-style banquet. Huangfuji was still a little uncomfortable with it. After all, over there at Xidaomen, it was all big business.
avoid.
In addition to the normal red wine, rice wine, and white wine, this banquet also prepared "Drunken Life and Dreams of Death". This is a special wine. When Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were not yet developed, it was difficult for them to drink this good wine.
, because half of the family's wealth was spent on just one drink. Obviously, this was a high standard, mainly for the guests of Xidaomen. If it hadn't been for Master Shi Da or Sun Hewu who had said it, Dao Palace would have been reluctant to take it out.
Qi Xuansu is known as "a teetotal drinker", and he only makes an exception for Zhang Yuelu. There is an exaggeration here. How can he be a teetotaler? However, under normal circumstances, Qi Xuansu does not drink much, especially for someone who can get drunk like "Drunk to Life and Dream to Death"
of wine.
So he just ordered a glass of rice wine and pretended.
People kept coming to propose a toast to Qi Xuansu. Qi Xuansu was not arrogant enough to refuse them all, but he was just pretending, and had no intention of really letting go. His status was high enough, and he had some halo around him. Whether it was overthrowing the Wang Jiao
Crane, or the evil name of Beichen Hall, can make many people feel in awe and dare not get involved.
It is true that some people are picking trouble with Qi Xuansu, and there are also many people who are afraid of Qi Xuansu.
This is because the forest is so big that there are all kinds of birds.
But there are also those who are blind and insist on fighting Qi Xuansu.
An assistant manager came to Qi Xuansu with a few people, and wanted to toast Qi Xuansu, and even wanted to fight for wine. This kind of wine fight is also very particular. You can't use your cultivation to resolve the hangover, just rely on your own drinking capacity.
Otherwise, it would not be a fight over wine, but a fight over realm and cultivation. Not only would the fight fail to achieve a result, it would also be a waste of wine.
Under normal circumstances, anyone who wants to secretly use cultivation means that the wine is not good. If you use the rhetoric that wine is the character, you can link it to the character. So no one will do anything.
However, a martial artist has an innate advantage and his physique is there, so few people would ask a martial artist to have a drinking contest with him.
This is also the reason why these people dare to ask Qi Xuansu to fight for wine. In terms of cultivation, we are not as good as you, but our ability to drink is another matter. The key is that there are many people. They don’t know that Qi Xuansu is a martial artist. Now everyone in the Taoist sect defaults to Qi Xuansu.
It's a banished immortal.
Speaking of which, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu are well-known for their drinking capacity. Zhang Yuelu is famous for having a good drinking capacity. He can beat the "drunk life and dream of death" fierce man without any cultivation. Generally, no one goes to Zhang Yuelu's place to feel uncomfortable.
At the cocktail party, Zhang Yuelu was in an invincible and lonely situation, drinking by himself. Qi Xuansu is known as "a teetotaler", so others will inevitably think, why don't you drink? Is it not possible to drink? It is reasonable for husband and wife to complement each other.
.
So this drinking competition started.
They probably don't know how Qi Xuansu punished people who gave him alcohol when he was in the Taoist government in Borneo.
Qi Xuansu naturally refused all the drinks.
This assistant manager was a stranger. Although he was smiling hard, he had a sinister expression. He might be flattering to others, but he would be harsh to others. Qi Xuansu rejected him, and he felt a little uncomfortable on his face.
Qi Xuansu probably knows this person's psychology. Both of them are second-grade Taiyi Taoist priests. Neither of them has any knowledge. They are both likely to be promoted to masters of the palace. This assistant is a seventh-generation disciple and is older than Qi Xuansu. He may think that
The two of them are on the same level and should respect each other.
In his opinion, if Qi Xuansu did not drink his toast, he would not give him face, and he would be arrogant. This is obviously because he is arrogant and cannot tolerate the slightest disobedience. He really regards himself as a person.
Speaking of which, there are quite a few such people. After all, to be able to reach the position of second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest, everyone has some connections and backers. Take Pei Xiaolou as an example, apart from having a good character, there is nothing else he wants. Why?
Standing? Just because my brother is Donghua Zhenren! Although Qi Xuansu has just worshiped Donghua Zhenren as his teacher, the change in thinking will always obviously lag behind the change in fact, that is, many people have not turned this corner.
Qi Xuansu had no intention of delving into the background of Gao Fuli, and just wanted to make a few casual remarks. But at this moment, Ning Yuqing came over and also proposed a toast to Qi Xuansu.
Ning Yuqing is undoubtedly a beauty, and with her well-off family background, she is the most beautiful woman in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace. She is the dream fairy of many teachers and Taoist boys. She walked towards this side, and before she even reached Qi Xuansu, she was already
It attracted the attention of many people.
Men are quite worthless sometimes. Not only do they follow women with their eyes, but also their thoughts and emotions. When they meet a powerful woman, they will inevitably be slipped around, but they still enjoy it. Only when they end up in vain will they realize that they have no regrets.
and.
This is especially true for drunk men. When they see a beautiful woman, they have to go up to show off their masculinity. If there is a male companion around this beautiful woman, they will find trouble with that male companion to highlight their own masculinity.
Powerful. It seems no different from the male birds competing for female birds.
Ning Yuqing toasted to Qi Xuansu, and Qi Xuansu immediately felt full of malice.
Although most people were afraid of Qi Xuansu's status and did not dare to do anything, Assistant Gao had no such scruples and directly talked about Ning Yuqing. It was strange that Ning Yuqing originally brought a glass of red wine, but he insisted on saying that red wine cannot express
Sincerity must be "drunk to death". And
It is said that Qi Xuansu can stop drinking his wine, but he can't stop drinking the beauty's wine. It is the most difficult for him to accept the kindness of a beauty.
Qi Xuansu was not good-tempered. He had a violent temper, but he kept suppressing it and told himself to control his anger. However, some people in the palace repeatedly provoked him, which exhausted his patience.
So Qi Xuansu said, "Young Daoist Ning is my friend. You can drink her wine anytime, but I won't drink it today. However, you have to drink Gao Fuli's wine, and you must drink it."
Ning Yuqing glanced at Qi Xuansu in surprise. Out of a woman's intuition, she vaguely felt that Qi Xuansu was angry. So she said nothing and just silently stepped aside.
Assistant Gao was still unaware and said loudly, "Okay, Chief Qi is happy enough!"
Qi Xuansu said again, "But I am a person who doesn't want to drink. If I want to drink, I have to drink to the fullest. If anyone gives up halfway, don't blame me for being unkind. All Taoist friends in Borneo Taoist Prefecture know this."
.”
The few people following Gao Fuli were glanced at by Qi Xuansu, and they felt a chill on their backs. They wanted to give in, but because their boss refused to retreat, they could only bite the bullet and agree.
Qi Xuansu ordered, "Take two jars of 'Drunk Life, Dreams of Death'."
Ning Yuqing immediately asked the Taoist next to her to get the wine.
Soon, two altars of "Drunk Life and Dreams of Death" were delivered to Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu said, "No need to cultivate."
After that, Qi Xuansu opened a jar of wine and drank it all in one gulp. Because he didn't use his cultivation to resist, Qi Xuansu's face turned red, but Qi Xuansu relied on his martial arts body and still stood firm.
Qi Xuansu's face turned red, and Gao Fuli's face turned pale.
Only then did he realize that he had made the wrong calculation. "Here, what do you mean?"
"What did you say?" Qi Xuansu snorted coldly, "Drink."
Gao Fuli wanted to say something else, but he heard Qi Xuansu say, "Gao Fuli just said so much, and his admiration for me is like a torrent of rivers. It's all bullshit? Do you look down on me?"
When the words fell, Qi Xuansu had already pinched the back of his neck, "Since you don't drink, then I will help you."
Qi Xuansu's attack was like lightning, but in the blink of an eye, Qi Xuansu poured a jar of wine into Gao Fuli's mouth. Qi Xuansu did not forget to seal Gao Fuli's cultivation, so that he could not use his cultivation to resolve it.
For a moment, Gao Fuli felt like the world was spinning. He had completely forgotten his last name and his ancestors for eight generations.
As for the other people, they were not spared and soon became ugly.
This incident made Master Shi Dazhen extremely angry, and he suspended Assistant Gao from all his duties that day and asked him to wait for handling.
