Myriad Paths

Li Qi didn't notice anything and returned home.

However, all was well.

Soon, the night passed and the next day arrived.

Li Qi sorted things out early, put everything behind him, and didn't think about them for the time being.

He felt that he had been a little obsessed recently and was a little too focused.

It's better to relax, watch the performance of Lingxiao Flower God, and promote your own witchcraft silkworms, which is all money.

Li Qi's money is completely enough for himself, because he can now easily produce Qi beads in the small world of his body.

Wu Jin's ability to 'create something out of nothing' is really terrifying. It is truly something out of nothing, appearing out of thin air. Although these energy beads are not even enough for his daily practice, it is no problem to maintain the youthfulness of his body.

But these are all for Rabbit to pay off his debts, so it’s definitely not too much.

Get up and walk towards Shangyuan.

Along the way, you can see rushing scholars, Confucian monks, and people watching the fun.

There are so many people in Shangyuan today.

Hmm...Li Qi saw this and opened his terminal.

Sure enough, there is also promotion on the terminal, the battle is quite big, and a lot of money should be spent on advertising space.

Such a dramatic cultural event is a must-see.

However, this kind of thing is just like a certain star's concert. It makes a lot of news and the scene is crowded, but it is only a small event in the life of the whole world, so it doesn't cause any big waves.

But it's enough. This is probably what Lingxiao Flower God wants.

Li Qi walked into Shangyuan in the crowd.

At this moment, Shangyuan is very lively. Not only the Flower Goddess, but also other entertainment workers have begun to perform here.

There is a girl from Qin who plays the flute, and her sound is so pleasant that she drunks the whole house.

There was a dance drama called Hongluo, and there was thunderous applause.

There are tricks like clouds, and people exclaim and praise.

There are also many vendors, taking this opportunity to sell flowers, drinks, and food with their mustard bags in their arms. They look shabby, but in fact they are mostly high-grade monster meat or spiritual wine, and even worse, they are Ganoderma lucidum and fairy grass. Usually, they are sold at a high price outside, but in Shangyuan they are selling them like street vendors. The price is actually more expensive, and more people are buying.

There are incense cars and tourists, and the sound of people calling for wine and seeing off guests is endless.

Cars and horses are going around, and people are gathering like ants, but it does not seem cramped because Shangyuan covers a very large area and everyone has a way to walk, so there is no crowding or crowding.

Li Qi walked among the crowd, looked around, and felt:

Visitors enjoy the flower forest, and the flowers entertain their hearts.

The gentle breeze is flying and clear, and the fresh clouds are thin and overcast.

But these are all peripheral. If you go further inside, you can see people other than tourists.

Li Qi went deeper, passed the tea tree frame, entered the wood incense shed, crossed the peony pavilion, passed the peony garden, walked to the rose garden, and then stopped at Lingxiao garden and looked inside.

This place is the real place where cultural gatherings are held, and it is also the courtyard where Lingxiao Flower God once lived in Shangyuan.

The garden that had been sealed for a long time was finally opened.

Almost all of them are monks of seventh grade or above. These are the people who really participate in the literary meeting.

The number of people is about several hundred.

Most of them were Confucian monks, each one talking loudly about the fate and pros and cons of Lingxiao Flower God, as well as this literary conference and how magnificent Liu Donghe's new article was.

But you can often see some calligraphers who have prepared paper and pen, eager to copy Liu Donghe's original work. Although I don't know how much charm they can copy, it is really impressive to see the authentic work of the third grade with my own eyes. It's a rare opportunity in a thousand years. If you have this opportunity this time, you absolutely can't let it go.

The other factions basically just come to watch the fun, join in the crowd, or eat and drink together.

When Lingxiao Flower God held a cultural party, it was naturally impossible for everyone to pay for the meal, so she arranged the banquet by herself, which was very painful to think about.

Because the ingredients on the flowing table in front of him were all the same eighth-grade products, and the wine was imported from Huliang with aged wine from the Taoist Immortal Family. Li Qi even saw the monkey wine that the Taoist hermits liked.

I don’t know when she bought it.

However, in addition to these normal people who came to attend cultural gatherings, Li Qi also noticed a group of people.

There are doctors, divination, literature and martial arts, and there are even monks from many niche schools, such as those who practice chess, but there are also several Confucian monks with impressive talents who take the lead.

Li Qi nodded slightly, thinking that these must be those Hanlins, the Emperor's personal advisors. Although they have no official status, their status is not low.

However, it should not be a formal Hanlin. After all, the Human Emperor is of the first rank. If you want to serve as an advisor to the Human Emperor, even if it is just a small matter, then the fifth rank or above is the basic requirement, or even higher.

Most of these people with an average level of seventh rank are Hanlin trainees, following the elders of the sect to qualify for qualifications and are studying.

When they gather together, they don't make as much noise as others, but do their own thing.

Li Qi looked at the leaders...

Well, there are indeed five levels, which are difficult to resist. It is estimated that these five levels are targeting the Lingxiao Flower God.

Chang'an is not a barbaric place, so it is unlikely to take action directly, but if you don't take action directly, it will be more difficult. If you are stumbling behind your back, the losses will be greater and it will be more difficult to solve.

For example, he hindered the opening of this cultural conference behind his back, used his personal connections to prevent this cultural conference from being held from the beginning, cut off resource channels, and did not allow Lingxiao Flower God to purchase the resources of the cultural conference.

If these Hanlins join forces, it will not be difficult to do this.

It's just...it seems that they don't bother to make trouble in this area, and even Lingxiao Flower God is not worried about this.

Yeah...too.

For those who can practice to a high level, their character can be seen by looking at their path. It is impossible for a Confucian monk to reach the fifth level without having done bad things, but he has a clear conscience.

Ask yourself about your Taoist heart and whether what you are doing is in line with your own Tao. Have you followed the ‘Tao’ that you recognize?

This kind of introspection is the norm for high-quality monks, so even Lingxiao Flower Goddess is not worried that these Hanlin will play dirty tricks to get her into trouble. They will just openly refute Lingxiao Flower Goddess at the cultural conference and force her to return to Baiyue.

To say how despicable this group of people are... that's not to say that in their eyes, what they did was a good thing, expelling bad money and expelling bad people from Chang'an. Instead, they were like high-flying flower gods who didn't know how to behave, clung to the powerful, and slandered the people. The purity of this Shangyuan.

As for Lingxiao Flower God, they also felt that they were slandering and spreading rumors to tarnish people's reputation.

how to say……

Even if their positions are different, even two good people will have conflicts with each other.

As for Li Qi...

In fact, he doesn't care.

Li Qi actually didn't care much about whether the Lingxiao Flower God could return to Shangyuan. Li Qi just wanted to do it for his own purposes. He just wanted to sell the Holy Flame and Witch Silkworms at a good price.

The grievances of Lingxiao Flower God have nothing to do with him, he doesn't care, and it is not his business to distinguish between right and wrong.

Li Qi was sitting aside waiting for the literary meeting to begin. At this time, he heard a voice coming from behind: "Li Qi, you are finally here. Really, I thought you wouldn't come."

The voice sounded a little trembling, and it sounded like Liu Shenzhi.

Li Qi turned around and saw Liu Shenzhi walking over, rubbing her hands.

He was still wearing a sexy outfit, a pink robe, and a Lingxiao flower in his hair, but he didn't show his usual demeanor at all, and instead looked very nervous.

"Why are you so cautious? Today's matter has nothing to do with us, so what are you afraid of? By the way, have you made all the preparations?" Li Qi asked.

"What if Lingxiao Flower God fails and is criticized in public... Then shouldn't we all fall down too? After working hard for so long, I don't want to fall here today." Shaking his head, Liu Shenzhi took a deep breath and calmed down. Feeling.

Then, he looked at the Hanlins over there.

Fifth grade...

I was so scared that I could only watch the performance of Lingxiao Flower Goddess today.

Li Qi followed his gaze and understood immediately.

Not everyone is like Li Qi, who faces high-level beings all day long and chats and laughs with the devil and witch god. Obviously, Liu Shenzhi is only an eighth-level being, and facing several fifth-level beings who have joined forces is too much pressure for him. .

Although Liu Donghe's cultivation level is very high, Liu Donghe will not deliberately show pressure on his son. To be honest, he doesn't feel much.

But now, in this whole place, the average cultivation level is upwards of level 7, and everyone leaks a little bit of aura from time to time, which is enough to make Liu Shenzhi of level 8 feel a lot of pressure.

"Her failure is a failure, what does it have to do with us?" Li Qi wondered.

He had only known Lingxiao Flower God for ten days. In fact, Li Qi didn't care about her at all, success or failure, as long as it didn't delay his promotion of the witchcraft silkworm.

"No... today, for the best publicity effect, I gave a robe made of witchcraft silkworms to the Lingxiao Flower Goddess. She will be wearing this clothes on the stage today. I think this will definitely be effective during the introduction... ..." Liu Shenzhi lowered his head and said to Li Qi.

Li Qi was stunned.

"Wai Ri, then, wouldn't our clothes be tied to the performance of Ling Xiao Flower God?" Li Qi immediately realized that something was wrong.

The robe made by the Witch Silkworm was worn on the Lingxiao Flower God. In other words, if the Lingxiao Flower God was high-spirited, they could naturally take the opportunity to publicize it.

But if Lingxiao Flower God slaps others in the face, it means he has also been slapped in the face.

Li Qi just wanted to use the Wenhui platform, but he didn't want to tie himself to the Lingxiao Flower God.

It is true that this can produce greater effects, but it also carries more risks.

"Are you stupid? Can we produce robes of level five or above? Isn't the most powerful creation only of level seven?" Li Qi became anxious and pulled Liu Shenzhi to sit down: "How could you even think of tying the chariot to it?" On her body!"

Yes, this was the reason why Li Qi was anxious.

Witchcraft silkworms can only produce seventh-grade magic weapons at most, and mass-produce magic weapons of eighth-grade or above.

This kind of robe is no different from the paper one in the battle of level 5 and above. When the two sides confront each other, the scene will be ugly!

Liu Shenzhi comforted Li Qi and said, "Don't worry, I have my own considerations. You see, this is a literary meeting after all, how can I do something about it?"

"You also know the style of our seventh-grade cassock. Because I am not even eighth-grade, most of the coding was done by you. It has a strong flavor of witchcraft. In addition, as the Lord of the Baiyue Kingdom, the Flower Goddess of Lingxiao, I wear it. There is a charm of witchcraft in it, which is more eye-catching than the common costumes in Chang'an."

"It will definitely shine by then, and some people will definitely ask where this comes from. If we add fuel to the fire on the terminal, we will definitely achieve greater results. Maybe this time we can just buy a six-level operator. The accuracy of the magic weapon silkworm can be improved to a large level. "

Liu Shenzhi said so.

But Li Qi looked strange. Liu Shenzhi's statement was not unreasonable, but he obviously didn't know much about the situation of the Lingxiao Flower God.

Lingxiao Flower God came back after risking his life. How could he really treat this literary meeting as an ordinary literary meeting?

Therefore, he looked at Liu Shenzhi and asked: "What you said... By the way, was this proposal discussed with you by Lingxiao Flower God?"

Liu Shenzhi nodded: "Indeed, she took the initiative to send me a letter, saying that in order to thank her father for her kindness, she would definitely help wholeheartedly. Since we want to publicize it, we might as well put on this suit herself, and then we can go out. Under the spotlight, I thought so and agreed.”

Li Qi slapped his head and sighed: "Brother Liu, you are not stupid, are you? How could you agree to her like this?"

"This does make sense. Besides, if she loses, she loses. What does it have to do with our magic weapon? Can it be related to the magic weapon silkworm? It is better to say that no matter she succeeds or fails, the quality of the magic weapon silkworm will be It's important to be noticed," Liu Shenzhi said nonchalantly.

Li Qi sighed: "This is the case under normal circumstances. Your consideration is not wrong, but have you ever thought that she would deliberately make our things look embarrassing?"

"On purpose? Why, she has no grudge against us, but we are benefactors to her, right?" Liu Shenzhi was puzzled.

"Because she has no way out! This literary festival is the result of her all-out effort. She is reminding me... No, she is hinting at me, warning me that she now has the ability to cut off our witchcraft silkworm business." Li Qiwu I tilt my head and have a terrible headache.

Obviously, in Li Qi's view, Lingxiao Flower God must know the importance of the magic weapon silkworm.

After all, Li Qi actually invited Lingxiao Flower God back for this thing, and Liu Shenzhi also invited Liu Donghe, which shows that this matter is very important. Lingxiao Flower God is not a fool and must have guessed it.

Obviously, Liu Shenzhi was not a fool. After the missing information was filled in by Li Qi, he immediately widened his eyes: "She wants to deliberately pretend that the witchcraft silkworm is of poor quality?!"

"If she is going to lose, I'm afraid this is it." Li Qi nodded, with helplessness on his face.

He coerced two people and asked them to contribute more to the affairs of the Cultural Society for their own business of witchcraft silkworms.

"This sucks-" Liu Shenzhi was about to say something bad, but his last quality stopped him, but his expression also darkened.

"It's useless to settle accounts with her now." Liu Shenzhi looked at Li Qi and responded calmly.

"Well, let's find a way for her to win. Settlements will be settled later." Li Qi nodded.
