Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 96: Spread your wings and fly high
Yangxian Tower is the largest teahouse on East Street.
Although it is a teahouse, in addition to its 35 kinds of top-grade teas, what is even more famous in Wulong Town is their "Jingcai".
The so-called Jingcai means using only vegetarian ingredients in dishes, making various kinds of chicken, duck, fish and meat effects that are almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
Vegetarian food can calm your mind, and the taste reveals your heart - Yangxian Tower is also the place where Lu Huang, the master of Bailianfang, hosted a banquet to invite Tang Zheng back!
However, there are still ten days left until the time stated on Lu Huang’s invitation!
"If you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, don't go. Why are you talking so much nonsense?" Tang Zheng waved his hand as if to shoo away a fly.
"I won't go!" Ah Zhi snorted.
"Okay, I'll find someone else..." Tang Zheng said quickly, "Are you afraid you won't be able to find someone to invite for tea ?"
Azhi's eyebrows twitched.
When he thought about the last time Tang Zheng invited him to dinner, it was a wonderful dinner, and after the meal there was a satisfying counterattack, he felt itchy in his heart.
Of course, killing Feng Le also brought him some trouble. Their stars were attached with Feng Le's blood. Not only would they be discovered to have killed Feng Le if they got close to certain people, but there would also be the danger of star power disorder when they upgraded their stars.
But a trouble that can be solved by destroying the Qintian Sect is not really a trouble for him.
So, after struggling for a long time, he finally compromised: "I'll go!"
Azhi said these two words with great grievance and frustration. As a result, he wanted to tear Tang Zheng apart the next night. He felt even more frustrated because he had to change his words.
Because Tang was sitting by the window of Yangxian Tower, just drinking tea, cup after cup...
After drinking the tea, he went to the clean room in the yard to urinate, then came up to drink again, urinate again after drinking, drink again after urinating, and urinate again after drinking, and so on.
Azhi simply thinks this person is crazy!
"What on earth are you doing?" Ah Zhi couldn't help asking until he had already drunk the twenty-seventh kind of tea. "Aren't you eavesdropping? Are you not chasing people? Are you not fighting? Are you not interrogating people?"
"You think too much..." Tang Zheng rolled his eyes and continued drinking tea.
The tea served at Yangxian Tower is very particular. Different cups are used for each type of tea. When the cups and tea are matched together, the cups are more beautiful and the tea is more fragrant.
But Azhi obviously didn't care about these. After staying in the teahouse for two hours, he couldn't sit still anymore.
At first he thought Tang was waiting for someone.
However, after Tang Zheng finished drinking all 35 kinds of tea, he stretched out his hand to call a waiter over and said, "The cups in your store are very beautiful. Sell me one."
The waiter waved his hands hastily and said, "What are you talking about? You've already ordered thirty-five pots of the most expensive tea. Since you're so kind as to like the cups in our store, we'll give you a new set..."
"No, this is it. It's good." Tang Zheng picked up the teacup he had just used to drink "Hundred Flowers Morning Dew", stood up and said directly to Azhi, "Okay, it's fine. Let's go."
"Leave?" Azhi stared.
"Yeah, the tea is finished and the gifts are about to arrive, so why are you still here?"
"Are you making fun of me on purpose?" Azhi didn't even have the strength to lift the sword, so he wanted to pick up a brick from the ground and throw it at his face.
…
After returning to Tangjiabao, Tang Zheng basically spent all his time in the martial arts training ground except for going to the laboratory every night.
One day, two days, three days.
Five days later, when he finally reached the peak of one star, the last move of the dagger technique, which was also the final move "Hate Destruction", progressed extremely slowly.
Tang Zheng himself had read "Treading the Gate Notes" and overcome the technical hurdle. He had also learned according to Henmie's guidance, and even Tang Boyuan tried it himself despite his injuries. However, the finishing move is the finishing move. How to coordinate with the starting move, Chongguan, Yuxie and Yangxiao respectively, and how to combine and coordinate with the previous moves, all of which require practice.
Tang Zheng has an obsessive-compulsive disorder where he wants to have 100% proficiency in skills, so he will never just try out a single move superficially and think that he has learned it by just practicing the basics.
Tang Xiaotang and Tang Zixie finally made up their minds and prepared to start introducing the second main star!
In fact, as long as you reach the peak of one star, there are no more rigid requirements for attracting stars.
There have been people who, because they are in a good mood and have confidence, immediately introduce a second main star on the day they reach the peak of one star.
It's just that there are very few of them.
Of course, Tang Zheng has not yet decided on the choice of his second main star. Moreover, his "personality" also makes him very dissatisfied. In order to avoid playing out astrological talents such as "scalding pigs in boiling water" or "instant noodles entangled", he must wait patiently for a while.
The talent for astrology is no joke, it is something that will accompany him throughout his life!
Others quit smoking and drinking, but he quit being funny.
There are only five days left before Lu Huang returns the invitation!
In Tang Zheng's laboratory, the design draft for the secondary equipment was also completed. He showed it to Xiaotang. Xiaotang stared at him for a long time and asked, "That's Master Lu Huang. He finally came here. Maybe he won't have a second chance in this life! You won't let him... make such a little toy for you... will you?"
Tang Zheng nodded seriously.
Tang Xiaotang covered her face and ran away in tears...
"Hey, hey, stop running. Why are you running so fast?"
"Guiding the stars!" Tang Xiaotang answered without turning his head.
Tang Zheng was speechless , and he picked up another book on the table...
He did not practice that book, but just glanced at it from time to time as if it were an extracurricular reading.
…
Tang Xiaotang really went to attract stars.
One of her stars is lit up by the Tianfu star, and she is good at defense but not good at attack. In order to make up for her weakness in attack, her second life palace is about to introduce the Qi Sha main star!
Her idea of attracting stars is also very clear. The 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th life palaces attract Tianfu, and the 2nd, 4th and 6th life palaces attract Qishashen. This is a relatively concentrated and staggered way of attracting stars.
There are only two main star powers in the seven life palaces. The star power can be concentrated to be repeatedly cleansed by these two main stars. The characteristics of the two aspects will be continuously strengthened, but because it is not a method of attracting continuous stars, the danger is greatly reduced.
As Tang Xiaotang’s push to become a two-star star was such an important event, almost everyone in Tang Family Castle was present.
The Seven Killing Stars are very dangerous.
Moreover, it is an extreme attack and defense relationship with Tianfu Star, and there may be a relatively large rejection reaction after attracting the star.
A tense mood spread in Tangjiabao.
Tang Xiaotang is not even sixteen years old yet. If she can successfully introduce a second main star in one fell swoop, it will definitely be a feat that will go down in the history of the Tang Family Castle...
The star power gathers and surges bit by bit.
The more than 7,000 strands of star power in Tang Xiaotang's body were not particularly strong. After reaching the peak of one star, many people had to refine their star power to eight or nine thousand before they dared to try to introduce a second main star. However, Tang Xiaotang's first life palace introduced Tianfu Star. The star veins that had been continuously impacted by Tianfu star power were very solid. She was very confident in her ability to introduce stars.
Compared to Meng Fenghua's concern when attracting stars, Tang Xiaotang was more determined.
For the sake of Tangjiabao, the determination to become stronger all the way!
The fiery red thorn flowers dance in the wind.
The leather rope that tied up Tang Xiaotang's long hair broke with a "snap". Her long hair fluttered wildly in the night sky, and her young and energetic face was filled with a confident smile.
Star power goes from chaos to stability...
The manic power of the main star Seven Killings was not introduced into the second life palace all at once. The stars in her second life palace lit up for a while and disappeared again. Tang Xiaotang was not in a hurry. She introduced the power of Seven Killings again and again, a little at a time. Finally, the stars in her second life palace gradually filled up from a transparent circle. Until the power of Seven Killings became calmer and calmer around her, the second star in her life palace lit up.
The subsequent cleansing of star power had an even greater impact on the star veins. However, her first life palace was the Tianfu star, which is "the guardian of Tianfu and strengthens the body". She withstood this round of star power cleansing perfectly and succeeded in attracting the star!
The youngest two-star warrior in Tangjiabao was born.
"Congratulations, sister Xiaotang, has your astrological talent awakened?" Suddenly, another figure appeared next to Tang Xiaotang.
"Ah?" Tang Xiaotang clearly remembered that there was no one around her just now, but for some reason, she saw Tang Zixie's figure as soon as she finished attracting the stars, "Could it be..."
Tang Boyuan had already clapped his hands on the side: "Within one day, our Tang Family Castle has gained two two-star warriors! Tang Family Castle has a bright future, a bright future!"
Tang Zixie obviously completed the star-guiding task earlier than Tang Xiaotang.
Moreover, from the fact that he suddenly appeared next to Tang Xiaotang, it can be seen that his astrological talent has been awakened!
Tang Xiaotang shook her head: "My star power flow is normal, I don't feel any talent is about to awaken..."
Once one becomes a two-star warrior, the awakening of astrological talent may be earlier or later, but no matter how late it is, there will be no sign of advancement at all.
Tang Xiaotang's situation is a bit rare.
However, the star power in her body has all been gathered into two-star star power. Tang Boyuan patted her shoulder and said, "It's okay, take your time."
Tang Zheng had just arrived. Without saying anything, he walked over and silently hugged Tang Xiaotang and then Tang Zixie . Then he smiled softly and said, "Are you ready?"
Tang Xiaotang was stunned for a long while.
Prepare?
The "preparation" that Tang Zheng asked about, of course, refers to their actions against Yinlan Villa!
Tang Xiaotang's face showed a hint of joy: "We're ready! We'll go first tonight..."
Tang Zheng waved his hand: "No need to tell me. Five days later, after Lu Huang returns to host the banquet, you guys, just do as you prepared, that's all!"
"Ah, Master, you...does this count as a nod?" Tang Xiaotang asked.
"Okay!" Tang Zheng said with a smile. He said that the day he nodded, that would be the day they spread their wings and fly high!
…
As the day of Lu Huang's return invitation drew closer, Wulong Town became more and more lively. The conflict between Tangjiabao on West Street and Yinlan Villa did not affect the lively atmosphere of Wulong Town. Of course, various fake invitations also began to flow into the market.
On the third day, Yangxian Tower closed its doors to visitors.
All the waiters were given a holiday, because the entire Yangxian Tower was swept by Mo Feng and his disciples from Bailianfang, who cleaned the place from top to bottom, without the waiters having to lift a finger.
The shaky stair railings were reinforced three times with tempered steel, and the rotten windowsills were repainted with fish glue and lacquer, ensuring that there were no mistakes in every corner.
Sets of brand new teapots and teacups were placed on the table.
Baihua Chaolu is the best tea of Yangxian Tower. It has become the signature of Yangxian Tower because of its slightly bitter aftertaste and lingering fragrance, and the different taste every time you take a sip.
How could we not serve the best of flowers and morning dew at such an important banquet which only happens once in a century?
In the courtyard of Tangjiabao, where the world was filled with decadence and extravagance, Tang Zheng was alone, lighting a lamp and holding a cup of flowers and morning dew in his hand. He turned it over and over again, tapped it a few times, listened to the pleasant echo, and finally put it back on the table...
