Chapter 602: tea party
Chapter 602 Tea Poetry Club
Bai Cangdong complied, and planned to go over to have a look. Although most of the hidden elders in the Hall of Mental Cultivation are people who are no longer in power, their strength is not trivial, and they are also a very powerful force in Yuxu Palace. If they can get their support, it will be of great help to Bai Cangdong.
The next day, Bai Cangdong went to Yangxin Peak on time. After arriving at Yangxin Peak, he realized that there were not many people who participated in the tea poetry meeting. Including Bai Cangdong and Gu Qingcheng, there were only six people in total.
The other four people are two men and two women. They don’t seem to be very old. Among them, one is a sage and the other is a real person, and the two women are both sages.
"Brother Bai, don't be surprised. Qingcheng is just an idler. Naturally, he doesn't have the face to invite many disciples. These few are people who are familiar with me. To me, Senior Brother Bai is willing to come, which is already a matter of comfort." Gu Qingcheng smiled and pointed to the man of the sage class and said: "This is Yu Hua and Senior Brother Yu, a disciple of the Seventh Peak, and the grandmother of the Yu family is from the Bai family. In terms of seniority, Senior Brother Yu and Senior Brother Bai should be Cousins."
"Yu Huaji has met Senior Brother Bai, regardless of his cousins, if we talk about relatives, besides Qingcheng, all the people sitting here are relatives of the Bai family, so it's hard to talk about it." Yu Huaji said bluntly.
"I made a slip of the tongue." Gu Qingcheng introduced the remaining three people to Bai Cangdong again, this time without mentioning their relatives.
The real man named Kong Chuan, although he has not yet been promoted to a sage, is extremely talented in literature and Taoism. He can read at the age of three, and he can recite poems with five senses. It has already alarmed the whole Yuxu. It can be said that Kong Chuan is the number one talent in Yuxu Palace today.
The two girls are Mo Shuang and Yan Xiaxue, and they are also well-known talented women in Yuxu Palace. They are also the top choices in terms of martial arts cultivation. As far as female sages are concerned, Mo Shuang and Yan Xiaxue can compete for the first place.
After hearing the backgrounds of several people, Bai Cangdong couldn't help but secretly said in his heart: "Although Gu Qingcheng invited few people, all of them are very important. Yu, Kong, Mo, Yan, these four surnames are the most famous in Yuxu Palace. The power should not be underestimated, these four people are also the elite among the elite of Yuxu Palace disciples, this Gu Qingcheng is probably not a person who can be indifferent to fame and fortune."
Gu Qingcheng is not willing to be ordinary, Bai Cangdong thinks that this is not a bad thing for him, with Palace Master Yuxu and others around, Gu Qingcheng, as he himself said, will always be an idler, if he wants to gain momentum, It must be the enemy of Palace Master Yuxu and others, and the enemy of the enemy is naturally a friend.
Bai Cangdong guessed in his heart that the reason why Gu Qingcheng would win him over was probably because of similar thoughts.
"Today's tea poetry meeting, it's rare that Senior Brother Bai is willing to appreciate it, why don't Brother Bai come up with a topic first." Gu Qingcheng looked at Bai Cangdong and smiled.
Mo Shuang nodded: "It's exactly what I want. Although Senior Brother Bai's song "Haiyan" is very strange, it has the power to shake people's hearts. Presumably, his accomplishments in literature must be extraordinary. It is naturally very important for Senior Brother Bai to come up with the title." OK."
Several other people also agreed, just waiting for Bai Cangdong to come up with a topic.
Bai Cangdong pondered for a moment, saw the flowering branches outside the window in full bloom, and the delicate flowers were colorful and charming, so he said: "Then let's use the flowering branches outside the window as the title."
"Okay." Gu Qingcheng and the others nodded slightly, and began to think about what poems they wanted to make related to this delicate flower branch.
"Since it was Senior Brother Bai's topic, it is naturally Senior Brother Bai's finale. Xia Xue is not talented, so let's start by throwing bricks and attracting jade." Yan Xia Xue said, looking at Bai Cangdong with beautiful eyes.
"Senior Sister Yan is willing to act first, it is naturally the best." Yu Huaji laughed.
Several other people looked at Yan Xiaxue, waiting for her to say the poems she had written.
"I just thought of a couple of sentences. Don't laugh at me if I say something bad." Yan Xiaxue pondered for a moment, then said in a clear voice: "Yaohua has beautiful colors, and green branches are full of youth. I only pity Tianyi." Old, the dust falls in an instant."
"Senior Sister Yan is indeed a great talent. She can write such a beautiful sentence with rich words and connotations in just a few moments." Kong Chuan praised.
"It's good, but it's a little sad." Yu Huaji said.
"How about making a fun song for senior brother?" Mo Shuang said.
"It's okay." Yu Huaji thought for a while, and then said the poem he thought of.
Bai Cangdong suddenly discovered that he used to like this kind of arty tone when he was on Earth, even when he first arrived in the Holy Realm, he was also very interested in it, but now he suddenly couldn't calm down to listen to these verses, Feeling very restless physically and mentally.
"No wonder the ancients often said that it is difficult to have both civil and military skills. If you are exposed to killing and killing all day long, it is really difficult to have those poems that lament the wind and moon. Even if you write poems, you still have the spirit of gold and iron horses." Bai Cangdong suddenly felt a little dispirited. , Everything that was very poetic and picturesque in front of me seemed a little unreal.
"It's really strange. I used to just want to eat and wait to die. My biggest goal was to be a prodigal and live a happy life. Now I can't adapt to this kind of life. The environment has changed people too much." Bai Cangdong thought in his heart. He smiled wryly to himself, if he had just come to the holy world, he must be in high spirits at this time, but at this time he was a bit dull.
Bai Cangdong didn't pay attention to the poems written by Kong Chuan and others because his mind was distracted, even his eyes were a little empty.
Gu Qingcheng and the others are all elites among the elites, so it is natural to see that Bai Cangdong's thoughts are not on the tea poetry meeting, basically he didn't even say a few words, and couldn't help frowning secretly.
Kong Chuan was the last one to compose the poem, and after finishing it, he said to Bai Cangdong: "What do you think of my poem, Senior Brother Bai?"
"Naturally it is excellent." Bai Cangdong came back to his senses and said something copingly.
"I don't know what's so good about it?" Kong Chuan asked again, apparently seeing that Bai Cangdong didn't listen to his poems at all, deliberately making Bai Cangdong look bad.
Bai Cangdong smiled: "My attainments in poetry are very average, I just think it's excellent, but I can't say what's good about it."
Kong Chuan was naturally very dissatisfied with this answer, but since Bai Cangdong had already confessed, he didn't say anything more.
Yan Xia Xue said: "Senior Brother Bai, now you are left to be the finale, and we are all looking forward to your poems."
Only now did Bai Cangdong realize that he was also going to make poetry, but just now his mind was lost and he didn't think about any lines at all. Thinking about it now, he felt that his mind was in chaos. Sometimes I can't think of a song.
Bai Cangdong secretly screamed in his heart that something was wrong, knowing that there was something wrong with his Dao heart, if he couldn't calm down his Dao heart, it might have a great impact on his own cultivation.
When everyone saw Bai Cangdong standing there speechless, they all looked at him suspiciously.
Bai Cangdong smiled wryly and said: "I'm sorry everyone, I really can't think of a good sentence, so I will admit defeat and apologize to everyone with this tea."
After finishing speaking, Bai Cangdong drank the tea in the cup in one gulp.
