Chapter 379 Giant Tree
After Zhang Song finished speaking, he turned around and walked into Xiao Yi's yard, and came to Xiao Yi's room.

Xiao Yi welcomed him into the room and sat down, then made tea for him himself.

Zhang Song drank tea, looked at Xiao Yi with a smile, and said:

"I said Master Xiao, we can be considered acquaintances. I heard that you were injured, so I came to see you specially. I don't know how your injury is. Are you okay now?"

Xiao Yi shook his head and said: "My injury is fine, I have taken the holy medicine for healing, I believe I will recover soon, I don't know why Master Zhang came to see me today?"

Zhang Song chuckled, and then said: "It's nothing. It's just that I heard that His Majesty is going to hold a banquet at the end of the year. He will invite all civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty, and invite young men from all the prefectures and counties of the Tang Dynasty to the banquet."

"I thought of you after I heard the news, so I wanted to visit you. Do you know when the banquet is?"

Xiao Yi said: "About the ninth day of December, at that time Datang will send someone to my Datang to announce the year-end exam."

"Moreover, I have to be informed that the young and strong from all states and counties of the Tang Dynasty will participate in the assessment together. Naturally, I, a little general, cannot participate in the assessment, so I can't go."

Zhang Song nodded and said:
"Then it's an honor for you to be able to attend the banquet this time, and I also heard that the food at the banquet is very rich, with a lot of rare ingredients, and I will show you to taste it then."

Xiao Yi shook his head and said, "Master Zhang, I can't attend this kind of banquet. My friends and brothers will also go, so I want them to attend."

"And I plan to go, after all, it's my neighbors' banquet, and I have to attend."

"Oh? Really? Since all your friends have gone, there's nothing you can do. How about this? I'll introduce you to you when the year-end banquet is held." Zhang Song sighed.

Xiao Yi nodded and said: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, but I really can't go because I'm injured, so I can't attend."

Zhang Song was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "I was injured, why is that? Could it be that your injury is serious?"

"Yes." Xiao Yi agreed softly, "So I can't attend the banquet."

Zhang Song frowned slightly after hearing this, and then asked, "Who injured you? Was it your Tang army? Or those barbarians from Xiliang?"

After hearing Zhang Song's questions, Xiao Yi felt bitter. These questions were not what he should answer, so Xiao Yi said: "Master Zhang, it doesn't make sense for you to ask this question."

"Oh? Doesn't make sense?" Zhang Song was puzzled, and then asked: "Since it doesn't make sense, then I won't ask. I wonder how you are recovering now?"

"It's much better." Xiao Yi said with a smile.

"That's good!" Zhang Song let out a long breath, and then continued: "In that case, it's inconvenient for me to stay for a long time, so I'll take my leave first."

"Master Zhang, go slowly!" Xiao Yi sent the guests away, and after Zhang Song left, he showed a trace of helplessness on his face, if he attended the banquet in this state, I'm afraid it would be embarrassing!
Just as Zhang Song left, a servant girl came in, she looked at Xiao Yi and said, "Master Xiao, Your Majesty asked this servant to see how your injury is."

Xiao Yi gave a wry smile, and then said: "I'm already much better, you go report to His Majesty, I will be able to get out of bed soon."

After hearing this, the servant girl walked out with a smile, and went back outside to report Xiao Yi's words.

When she came back, Zhang Song was sitting on a chair drinking tea, saw the servant girl coming out, and asked, "How is it, what did Xiao Yi say? How is his injury recovering?"

The servant girl shook her head and said, "Master Zhang, Master Xiao said that he will be able to get out of bed very soon, please rest assured!"

"Okay!" Zhang Song stood up after hearing this, and then said, "Then you should follow his instructions. Remember, don't let him know that you have visited him!"

The servant girl agreed and left in a hurry.

Zhang Song looked at the back of the servant girl going away, his face became extremely gloomy, and he muttered to himself:
"Hmph, Xiao Yi, since I can't kill you, then I can only destroy you. Since you can't participate in the banquet, then I will make you completely embarrass yourself at the banquet!"

Xiao Yi lay in the room for a while, and then got out of bed.

His injuries had all healed, and although he couldn't move, he could walk, so Xiao Yi planned to go down to the ground, walk around the yard, and practice his internal strength by the way.

He came to the yard and walked on the ground.

After walking two steps, Xiao Yi found that there was no one in the yard, and the flowers, plants and trees here were barren, obviously they hadn't been pruned for a long time.

He came to the east side of the yard, stopped beside a big tree, then activated his inner strength, and began to practice inner strength on the big tree.

This big tree is called Cangtian Tree. It is a very old tree that has existed for a long time in the history of Daqin.

The age of the tree is even older than the ancestors of Xiao Yi's grandfather, Xiao Yi's father, Xiao Yi's grandfather's father, and they have existed for a long time in the history of Great Qin.

It is said that this tree is thousands of years old, and it is the oldest ancient plant in Daqin.

Xiao Yi circulated his internal force and practiced on the body of the big tree. This big tree was very tough, and Xiao Yi's internal force hit it, leaving only a white mark.

Xiao Yi practiced continuously, and it took him a full two quarters of an hour to complete this set of martial arts. Then, he was satisfied and stood up from the ground.

The trunk of this big tree is thick and the trunk is three to four feet thick. It took Xiao Yi two quarters of an hour to practice it. One can imagine how difficult it is to practice this set of internal strength martial arts.

Xiao Yi glanced at the sky, then turned around and left the courtyard, walking towards the gate of Daqin.

Xiao Yi walked to the street, then walked to the door of a restaurant, looked up at the plaque on the restaurant, and then walked in.

Xiao Yi sat down at a table by the window, ordered two jugs of wine, ordered some dishes, and observed the flow of people in the restaurant while eating.

Although this restaurant is not very big, the business inside is very hot, and there are long queues every day.

After Xiao Yi finished ordering, he ate while watching the customers in the shop.

He was waiting for the banquet to begin.

This time the banquet is held at night, so the banquet will not start until the evening banquet is over until it gets dark.

More than an hour passed, and the restaurant was still full of people, and the hall was still buzzing with people, and there was no sign of leaving.
