Chapter 245 102. The Banquet Opens

This night was a sleepless night for many people, but Li Aoz slept comfortably, recharged his energy and made all preparations.

He has finalized his doctrine, and if the plan fails, he will immediately turn the table.Anyway, Tianhuan has the handle in his hand, and he is a citizen of Red Arrow, so he is not afraid of being tough.

Kagami's reaction was quite surprising. This blunt and aggressive terrorist had not shown any signs of attack until now, and hibernated very cautiously, which saved Li Oz a lot of trouble.

"Now, come and enjoy the carnival."

With the opening of the Kowloon party, the crowd density in Joan Anjing almost doubled. Li Aoz was invited to avoid the rush hour travel, and a special car invited him to the venue of the banquet - Kowloon Temple.

After passing through the torii gates and the mountain path where countless white lanterns were released, Li Aoz stepped into the square under the guidance of two monks. It should be said that it is not easy to see such an antique temple in this era. The leader and the abbot of the temple are delivering a speech on the stage, and then the ceremony will be carried out under the guidance of the witch and the great onmyoji.

During the whole process, Li Aoz was not interested. He listened to the speech symbolically for a while, but actually scanned the crowd with his eyes, and clearly noticed a few frost-coated faces.

The appearance of the other party is serious and rigid, and the people who travel are all men. Basically, it can be ruled out that they are rich officials and rich people who are frost-plated-that is the secret agent of the third rule.

Li Aoz has the [Eye of Reality], so he glanced at it, and sure enough, these Frost Plated people are all [Rule [-] non-staff agents].

"The Frostplated Man looks like he's going to make trouble."

Li Aoz noticed that these people frequently came together with some strong men from the sky ring to exchange something, and their eyes turned to him from time to time.He couldn't help sneering: After reaching this point, you still want to borrow a knife to kill someone?
Frost's battle on the front line of Gurante was not going well, coupled with being repeatedly humiliated by Li Aoz, he must have been unable to hold back, and wanted to get rid of himself—but by using this three-legged cat method to instigate the strong to deal with him, then I'm a little bit overwhelmed.

Li Aoz didn't bother to talk to these people, but after thinking about it, these people might not be useless.

"Perhaps, it can be like this..."

He turned his head and stepped directly into the exhibition hall, admiring the weapons and blades made by various skilled craftsmen in Tianhuan this year.

This is the way to increase foreign exchange income at the Nine Dragons Gathering—the weapons of Tianhuan are well-known all over the world, especially cold weapons and swords, whether they are valuable for collection or used by strong individuals, they are the first choice without exception.

And at this kind of international grand event, not only is the order for weapons, but also a good opportunity for craftsmen to show themselves. Many unknown knife smiths, because their works are favored by others, even become famous overnight and achieve a class leap. Many people deliberately created some gorgeous and worthless weapons just to show off their skills and show off their superb skills.

Of course, in such an occasion, it is impossible to set up a street stall and let others play with it. All weapons have complex genetic code locks. If you like it, you must communicate with the craftsman to confirm it before you can open it for trial use.

Of course, such a strict screening method is a bit unfriendly to most buyers and spectators. There are also opportunistic and shoddy existences. No one wants to spend a lot of energy, and the weapons they buy in the end are just flashy. Therefore, most of the time, the organizers of the Kowloon Gathering default to the fact that the two parties have reached a consensus, and give a relatively objective evaluation price.

Do it at your own risk, and that's the fun part of this shopping.

Quite a few spectators and buyers carefully identified them in various ways. Those who came to the party were obviously from good backgrounds, and they all had some means and instruments for identification.

But even so, Li Aoz opened the [Eye of Reality] and scanned around. Out of ten people, at least five bought inflated prices, and one person bought a decent product.

For this kind of work of appreciating treasures and shopping for goods, [Eye of Reality] is like opening the door. The quality and attributes of the goods are directly in front of him, and he even only needs to scan the name to see if it is genuine.

[It saves a lot of effort - if the players have the opportunity to participate in this party, they will probably thank me to death. 】

Li Aoz pretended to visit some booths, and there was always a Frost Plating agent quietly following him behind him. Li Aoz didn't take it seriously, and took up weapons to try out from time to time, and even communicated with some craftsmen.

However, soon, the sarcastic remarks made by the Frost Plater behind his back showed their effect.

Li Aoz put down his threat, shook his head, and said to the craftsman:
"This weapon is not suitable for my combat style, and it is too short. However, the workmanship is still very exquisite. I hope you find a suitable buyer."

There is nothing wrong with what he said, but before he finished speaking, a strange voice suddenly sounded from behind:
"Hey, the Red Arrow man is knowledgeable. Wakizashi, who is originally a short knife-shaped weapon, thinks it's too short."

Li Aoz glanced at the back, only to see a burly man with his arms folded walking towards him, making no effort to hide his Beta-level aura. He was wearing a loose samurai robe, and he looked like a warrior of the Dragon Sect. , There is also a poisonous snake spitting out a letter tattooed on its neck.

He walked leisurely, snatched the coercion from the hand of the craftsman, weighed it in his hand, and waved it twice, breaking the air with a dignified sound, then nodded:

"What? Isn't this pretty good? It's easy to blow your hair and break your hair."

As he said that, he pinched the oyster in his hand, looked narrowly at Li Aoz, and changed the topic:
"Hey, but there is no way - our Tianhuan is just a small country, so we are inevitably short of supplies. We have never seen the world, so how can we compare with the masters of the empire?"

The passers-by around seemed to know this warrior, and whispered:
"Hey, isn't that the vassal of the Hojo family - Yanagimon Shinsuke?"

"Red Arrow is out of luck. How did he get into trouble with this mad dog?"

"Liu Weimen's master was defeated by the swordsmanship master of the red arrow, and he could not bear the humiliation. Now this guy is an anti-red arrow demon."

The murmurs of the surrounding guests, as well as their attitude of watching the show, surprised Li Aoz - he never expected to encounter such a thing.

【Rule [-] How can you be so lucky to provoke such a person? 】

But if you think about it carefully, it's normal. The Rule of Three Gan is a professional in provoking Gonghuo. It is estimated that they have come into contact with many similar people.

The craftsman was overwhelmed by the warrior's aura, obedient, and did not dare to express his opinion at all. He looked at Li Aoz helplessly, hoping that he could say something.

Li Aoz glanced at the warrior, didn't want to pay any attention to him at all, turned around and was about to leave, but the warrior turned sideways and deliberately stopped in front of Li Aoz.

"Leaving in such a hurry? Are you so disdainful of our Tianhuan's things?"

Liu Weimen's words were full of teasing, and he made it clear that he was here to find trouble, and there was no need to follow his will.

——But after hearing these words, Li Aoz felt upset.

Li Aoz's eyes slowly lit up with a golden halo, and just as he was about to crush the short-eyed idiot to the ground, there was another scolding sound not far away:

"Hey! Liu Weimon, do you want to throw shame on the world?!"

While talking, a high-spirited man in military uniform walked over with his hands in his pockets, with a bad expression on his face. He stared at Liu Weimen and said coldly:

"This is the Nine Dragons Gathering, a sacred ceremony, where guests from all over the world gather. Do you want the people of Tianhuan to be ridiculed?"

"Oh? Isn't this Kim Tae-hyun from our capital's Security Bureau, the little general Kim?"

Liu Weimon didn't retreat at all because the other party was a senior officer, and reminded him with a playful smile:

"Your job is to protect Prime Minister Park's life, not to protect the dignity of Tianhuan people—on the contrary, only warriors can maintain the dignity of Tianhuan."

Ryuemon Shinsuke is a retainer of the clan. In terms of class nature, he is much higher than a pure soldier like Kim Tae-hyun. And say respectful words to yourself.

Jin Tae-hyun's complexion was not good. He originally wanted to mediate this meaningless farce, but instead he was ridiculed and humiliated, and his face immediately turned blue with anger.

Pointing at the other party, he yelled: "Who is messing around, can't you tell it yourself? Don't think that you can walk sideways because of Mr. Hojo Tokitaka's favor, this is Qiong Anjing! It's not your turn act wildly!"

"Hehe, I'm curious, is it not my turn, or is it not the turn of retainers like 'us'?"

Liu Weimon's new assistant spread his hands, and immediately confronted Kim Tae-hyun.

The conflict between the new army faction and the clan faction has been accumulated for a long time. The former is a little bit smug because of the status improvement brought about by the Kowloon gathering, forgetting the fact that this country is controlled by the clan group.

"If you didn't take the initiative to pick trouble with foreigners, why should I stop your stupid behavior."

Kim Tae-hyun confronted each other. He pointed at Li Ozi next to him:
"Everyone has seen it. This foreign friend just picked up his weapon and commented, but was blocked in front of Liu Weimon, an idiot, and refused to let him leave-what do you want? Put our Tianhuan in the international arena. , become an unreasonable barbaric image?"

"Only cowards care about other people's opinions." Liu Weimen didn't take it seriously: "What's more, the guy next to you is from the Red Arrow Empire, what? Are you protecting the enemies of the Sky Ring Kingdom?"

"I don't care about your personal grievances, this is an international event!"

"Okay, since I disturbed the order, you are here to arrest me, take me away, and put me in prison—what? Young General Jin, why don't you dare to do anything?"

Liu Weimen couldn't stop laughing, he could see the weak nature of Kim Tae-hyun, and he was sure that he was not capable of arresting Hojo's retainers.

No matter what, the country dare not tear itself apart with the Hojo family. Rather, the entire Tianhuan seems to be armed with the Hojo family. If there is any problem with the Hojo family, the whole country will be in turmoil.

Because of this, the retainers and warriors of the Hojo family are almost confident and reckless in the country.

Even if Liu Weimen really made some mistakes, Jin Taixian didn't dare to arrest him.

Liu Weimon made no secret of his aura of the peak strength of the Beta stage, adding another point of persuasion.

Tianhuan is a place where strength is the most important thing. In many cases, strength is a privilege, especially the dual identity of a Beta elite + Hojo family retainer like him. In terms of personal strength and influence, he belongs to the echelon of "not to be provoked".

Kim Tae-hyun blushed. If he really dared to catch Liu Weimon, the opponent would find his way back sooner or later. He didn't even need the Hojo family behind him to make a move. A top Beta-level samurai would be enough for him to never sleep well in the future. I feel it.

Let alone arresting people, even if he was really good at fighting, he wouldn't dare to do it on such occasions, what a serious impact it would cause.

Seeing that this man was deflated, Li Aoz simply put his hands in his pockets and looked straight ahead without any reaction.

This belonged to Tianhuanren's own internal power struggle, and he didn't want to intervene, but Liu Weimen humiliated Kim Tae-hyun all the way, and he didn't think it was enough, so he came to Li Aoz again and hooked his hands provocatively.

"Hey, Empire guy." Liu Weimen pointed to Li Aoz, and then pointed to the exhibition in the distance:

"I know you are not convinced, but my new assistant, Liu Weimon, is also a person who wants to save face. Today is a party in Kowloon, so I can't see blood—how about making a bet with me?"

"Not interested in."

"Don't refuse in a hurry." Liu Weimen said eccentrically: "Our country invites you to be a guest, and you are so perfunctory."

Li Aoz raised his eyebrows:
"none of your business."

"I see that you are beautiful, and you must be a noble family. There are countless treasures at this Kowloon party, but everything has a distinction between high and low, and there are differences between treasures."

Liu Weimen glanced at Li Aoz, and murmured in his heart: This guy is a handsome beauty.

But, who made you a Red Arrow man?

He spread his hands and suggested:
"You and I each find 10 treasures, and go to the jury to calculate the final value. If you have better eyesight, then I will admit that you did not humiliate the swordsmith of Tianhuan, and settle the cost for you. But if I am more favored Once you settle, you will settle the bill for me."

Li Aoz tilted his head:

"You are so ordinary, how can you be so confident?"

"Do you compare?" Liu Weimen said eccentrically: "Anyway, for you Hongjian people, each of you lives in a big villa and drives a luxury car with a V8 engine. Naturally, you look down on our Tianhuan people who lack resources. It's time."

"Pfft-"

This guy's inexplicable speech made Li Aoz amused.

"Provocation is provocation, don't say it so high-sounding." Li Aoz waved his hand: "If that's the case, then you wait to empty my shopping cart."

"Hehe, blind confidence."

Liu Weimen was overjoyed: he wasn't just deliberately provoking trouble, the wealth of the Red Arrow man can be seen, if he can really kill Li Aozzi, it will not only be able to avenge his master, but also a real benefit , Looking back, it is also very good to spread the word that I can let the Red Arrow people pay for me.

Fame and fortune, no matter how you think about it, it's all because of your own victory.

What's more, I've been prepared for a long time. Those Frost Plated people who communicated with me have already got a list of famous knife makers. As long as they pick according to what they said, they will definitely win in terms of total value.

"I'm sure to win!"

　I went to the hospital for a biochemical check, and took a film by the way, and it turned out to be bronchitis without accident.

　　Tomorrow, I will start paying off the debt and restore the update rhythm.
