Chapter 1212 Fairy Spell

The banquet started when the new moon rose and when the moon was on the willows, Sun Ce determined the general principles with everyone. The specific arrangements he received were handled by relevant officials. There was no need to talk in detail at the banquet. Everyone talked happily, drank happily, and chatted and laughed. Some people thought of the god Yu Ji just now. At first, he used it as a topic of conversation, but later he gradually treated him as a joke and mocked him mercilessly.

Even cultural people, the temper of Han people is much more straightforward than that of later generations. They praise them when they like them, scold them when they don’t like them, and have no affection at all. The so-called taboos are often kept in books, and they often take into account in their lives. Even the emperor is confronted in the court, and it is naturally less psychologically burdening to confront a fake god on such occasions.

Seeing that the man was getting worse and worse, the women became unhappy, especially Mrs. Chen. Yu Ji was invited by her younger brother Chen Yi. Now she was embarrassed in public and even her face was lost. Xu Qian was given the Nanchang Order and was happy. After drinking two more glasses, she was a little proud, which made Mrs. Chen furious. She shouted Xu Qian in front of everyone and left.

Yuan Quan was not feeling well. Taking the opportunity of persuading Mrs. Chen, he took Yin Gui and others to leave the table. After they left, Yuan Heng and others stopped sitting and left the table one after another. Only adult men were left in the hall, and they were even more presumptuous. Xu Qian took the wine to cover up the scene, and did not take the episode just now seriously, and talked with everyone.

Sun Ce saw it and sighed in his heart. Whether these people are literary or military, aristocratic or poor families, they are all secular people, so how can they understand what Tao is? No wonder Yu Ji is unwilling to pay attention to them. Seeing that the gods only know how to seek elixirs and want to get something for nothing, they are not worthy of asking for Tao.

Sun Ce sat for a while and found an excuse to retreat, leaving Lu Dai to accompany him. Lu Dai was thoughtful, principled and flexible, so it was very appropriate for him to receive these people. When he stayed here, these people were not at ease. Only when he left could they drink happily.

Guo Jia also followed him out. The two went downstairs and saw that the first floor had reopened. Yuan Quan was chatting with the wives. When Sun Ce went downstairs, he rushed over and pointed to the military plan water pavilion not far away.

"Yu Shenxian is waiting on the third floor."

Sun Ce was very surprised. "What did you arrange?"

"It's my own decision. If there is any inappropriateness, please forgive me."

Sun Ce chuckled. Yuan Quan's arrangement is indeed inappropriate, and no one can get close to the military strategy. But this is not her fault. No matter how smart she is, she would never think of Yu Ji's tricks. "Since you left the gods behind, why don't you go over and ask for advice?"

"If he is a real god and has opportunities in the future, why bother to be anxious? If he is a fake god, it is useless to ask." Yuan Quan's eyes were like waves, and he smiled with his lips. "We don't have the wisdom of a general, so how can we know the truth or falsehood."

Sun Ce didn't say anything else, raised his hand to greet the wives of the family who were having a banquet, and walked to the military plan with Guo Jia. When he arrived on the third floor, Yu Ji and others were chatting. There were some wine, fruits and melons on the table. Although it was not rich, it was fresh, which was consistent with Yu Ji's identity. Seeing Sun Ce and Guo Jia go upstairs, they turned around and bowed.

Yuan Yao gave a gift and was about to leave. Sun Ce grabbed him and signaled him to listen together.

"Yu Gong, have you decided?"

Yu Jiqiang calmed down. "What decision?"

Sun Ce frowned. "I said it clearly enough just now, right? Do you want me to say it again?"

Yu Ji was about to speak, but Xu Yue pulled his sleeve and whispered: "General Sun has a lot of things to do every day and has no time to say those polite words. Yu Gong, let's save those false stories. The general is a person who sincerely asks the truth, no more than ordinary people."

Yu Ji looked at Xu Yue and Sun Ce, and he was a little helpless. "Okay, let's save the mystery and tell me the truth."

Sun Ce raised his hand. "Before speaking the truth, can you please Mr. Yu express some sincerity? After all, you have the mystery in front of you, and I don't know if you can trust you."

Yu Ji smiled bitterly. "How do the general want me to show sincerity? Or do I turn stones into gold? I don't have any of these."

"What happened to your wine just now?"

Yu Ji blinked and stared at Sun Ce for a while. "Can the general tell me first why you are so suspicious of me? You must say that my spell is an illusion?"

Sun Ce smiled. Guo Jia also smiled and shook the feather fan in his hand. "Yu Shenxian, if you don't want others to know, you must not do it yourself. Before you reach Pingyu, Man Boning sent the young man who cooperated with you here. He is the one with broken legs, and you should have an impression."

Yu Ji suddenly blushed. He hesitated for a moment and unbuttoned his coat. When Sun Ce and others saw it, they couldn't help but look at each other and smiled.

Yu Ji's waist was wrapped with a translucent tube. Judging from the luster of the material, it should be the casing. It was almost empty inside, hanging softly around his waist, and both ends extended to his arms. Looking closely, there was still some residual wine inside. Yu Ji walked to the edge of the desk, picked up a glass of wine, blocked it with his left hand, poured it into the tube on his wrist. The wine flowed down the tube, and the tube wrapped around his waist became more full. Yu Ji hung his arm, and the wine flowed back into the cup.

Sun Ce suddenly realized that no wonder Yu Ji refused anyone, but he drank hundreds of glasses without any drunkenness. It turned out that he didn't drink a single sip. When the Han people drink, they would use their left sleeves to cover their faces. He used this as a cover to pour all the wine into the tube, and then performed a spell.

Sun Ce held back his laughter and reached out to invite him. "Yu Gong, now you can drink it, this wine is still good."

Yu Ji nodded embarrassedly, took off the tube and put it aside, put it on his coat. Yuan Yao poured two glasses of wine, served one to Sun Ce, and one to Yu Ji. The two raised their hands to signal and drank a glass. Sun Ce smacked the wine. He didn't have the ability of Yu Ji, and he drank a little too much today.

"Can I ask another question? What's going on with your spell like mind reading?"

"That's not an illusion." Yu Ji held the wine glass and put away his smile. "To be precise, it's the use of Taoism."

Sun Ce glanced at Yu Ji with an unhappy expression. "If you still want to pretend to be mysterious, I will not be with you."

Yu Ji raised his hand and signaled Sun Ce not to worry. "I heard it."

"Hear?"

"However, I have been a child and have been in Taoism for more than ninety years. I still have a clear ear and clear eyes. If the surroundings are quiet, even whispers may not be able to hide it from me. I can speak normally within 20 or 30 years old, and I can listen to someone walking within 100 steps, but I can't hide it from my ears."

Sun Ce was stunned and circled around Yu Ji twice, especially carefully observing his big ears. "Your hearing is... so good?"

"The desire to maintain essence, the connection is good, the kidney qi is sufficient, and the hearing is naturally good. Generals are plagued by mundane affairs, and aren't it the same that the lung qi is sufficient, and the sound of gold is strong?"

Sun Ce subconsciously exchanged a look with Guo Jia. When he heard Guo Jia say that he was golden and vibrant, he didn't believe it. Now he heard Yu Ji say this again, but he believed it a little. If you don't say anything else, Yu Ji's hearing is very perverted. He couldn't help laughing.

"So, I also have the talent for practicing Taoism?"

"The general is talented, but he is plagued by ordinary affairs, so he may not be able to go to the mountain to meditate." Yu Ji unconsciously restored his immortal spirit. "I returned from overseas because I hope that the general can cultivate the way to enter the world with a worldly heart, save the troubled times, and relieve the people from the upside down."
