Chapter 1040 Entering the door
The birthday banquet was held in Feng Mansion. When Yu Xing and his party arrived, there were already many carriages parked outside the mansion.
The courtyard gate is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, with hand-woven colorful knots hanging on both sides, and strings of strange and exquisite lanterns hanging.
A middle-aged man with a bright smile stood by the door, hugging each guest who came in. While receiving gift boxes and gift lists, he responded with words of congratulations. The breeze blew through his clothes made of expensive fabrics, causing the wide sleeves of his robe to flutter slightly. .
"congratulations-"
“Oh, Mr. Jin is so polite, please come in quickly.”
“Butler Feng is also looking radiant today. Last time we said goodbye...”
Hand in polite words, there was a bit of noise for a while.
At this moment, it was the time for guests to come in. There were so many people that Yu Xing could see at a glance several members of the wealthy businessman family who had visited his home the night before.
But what is more conspicuous than these people is the huge resentment shrouding the entire feudal palace. In the eyes of ordinary people, the invisible resentment is as slight as a wisp of smoke, but in Yu Xing's eyes, it is like a surging black tornado. , almost covering all the colors of the sky.
It is a cloudy day, or in other words, the closer to Fengfu, the gloomier the weather becomes.
Among the surging black resentment, some dim golden characters occasionally flashed through. They were embedded on top of the resentment, as if there were no rules. But if you look closely, you will see that these characters are like chains, locking the resentment in a hemispherical circle. Within the space, it is like an inverted bowl, holding the entire building of the Feng Mansion.
Firstly, it gathers resentment and prevents it from spreading outwards, and secondly, it rejects strangers and shuts out all those who do not have an "invitation letter".
Those who do not have an invitation to the birthday banquet will never be able to enter.
To put it more intuitively, today is the only day in the whole year that the Feng Mansion is open to outsiders.
That's why the birthday banquet is so important, because Master Feng and even Master Wanban are extremely mysterious and don't go out often. This is the only opportunity for those wealthy businessmen to meet Master Wanban.
As long as you are favored by all the masters and mention a few more words, you may be rich in life.
This opportunity is something everyone wants to seize.
Ren Yi held Qian San's face and observed everything outside the carriage, with a faint chill running down his spine.
The hypocritical and flattering smiling faces of the wealthy businessmen and the shrewd and arrogant expressions of the feudal stewards painted a ridiculous portrait.
No matter how rich you are or how high your status is, when facing a housekeeper, you will automatically put yourself in a lower position, put down your dignity, and grovel.
He whispered: "These people are so crazy that they seem to have been brainwashed."
"Maybe it's not like that." Zhao Mou's performance was more dedicated. He took advantage of Mrs. Those followers become cultists.”
Those who don't love money so much will still regard money as their life.
The general environment will distort a person's thinking. If everyone is doing it, strange things will become orthodox.
In this cursed town, the wealthy businessmen's love for money and admiration for all kinds of masters have obviously reached the limit of being sought after and become a sick branch. If this continues, sooner or later this branch will pollute the main trunk. Destroy the entire town.
Those who resisted, those who were poor and those who were unfairly treated in hiding, perhaps felt this morbid atmosphere, and they became alert to the danger and determined to break the current situation. "It's all marketed." Yu Xing's beautiful maid's face showed a half-smile expression, "Master Wanban is completely a created god. Mrs. Xue came to Fengtou Town early to build momentum for him, and then in Save the town that is about to be flooded in front of everyone - maybe the cause of the flood is also the work of Wanwan Master, and the evil spirits in the river cannot be formed naturally in a short time. "
“Firefighters set fires by themselves, and detectives kill by themselves. This is still an ancient town. People here have never even seen the intrigues in the bustling capital. How can they tell whether the gods created by Master Wanban are real or fake?”
Zhao Mou shook his head slightly: "A high-pressure environment needs an outlet. As long as the curse has not dissipated, the more powerful the person, the easier it is to be used as a spiritual support. I can't blame them for being stupid."
“Let's go, it's time to get off the car.”
They have been waiting in the carriage for a while. At this time, many wealthy businessmen and their wives have already entered, and it is a little quieter outside the door.
Yu Xing jumped out of the car first and conscientiously stretched out his hand beside the carriage to act as a support point for "Mrs. Xue" when she got off.
Zhao Yijiu got out of the car right after his brother, leaving "Qian San" at the end. Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that Qian San, the last person to get off the car, had a low status and was not even looked down upon by Mrs. Xue.
The steward Feng who welcomed the guests had ears and eyes in all directions and saw this scene without feeling anything wrong at all.
Even compared to those wealthy businessmen, his smile towards Mrs.
“Mrs.
Zhao Mou waved his hand, and the maid Yu Xing immediately handed over the gift box she was holding. There was actually nothing in it, just for show. After all, there were many guests coming and going today. Although Mrs. Xue was one of Master Wanban's most capable subordinates, she also Don't let the wealthy businessmen see this.
Butler Feng took the congratulatory gift and his eyes stayed on Yu Xing.
Compared with the false gift list, he was still more interested in the maid he had never seen before.
Among the four people, Mrs. Xue and Qian San are both members of the organization. On the surface, they are holding invitations, but in fact, they each have tokens that allow them to enter and exit Xue's house at will, and are not affected by the sealing formation.
The man from the Xue family is Mrs. Xue's husband. Only today he can get the invitation as a partner and come in for dinner.
But the appearance of the maid here makes people feel strange, because this birthday banquet is not allowed to bring anyone else, even Mrs. Xue has never brought extra ostentation on such occasions.
What's more, she is a strange woman that he has never seen before.
Thinking this, Butler Feng's eyes darkened, but before he could ask any questions, the little maid who handed him the gift box giggled, her voice was small, delicate and strange, and she said in his ears: "Staring like this Do you want to give your eyes to me?"
That's right!
The butler was not offended at all, but felt relaxed all of a sudden.
This tone, this feeling, what else could it be if it weren't for being an accomplice in the organization?
Mrs. Xue whispered at this time: "This is a new arrival. She is pretending to be a maid in my house for the time being. Don't ask more questions than you should. I gave her an invitation in every possible way."
The housekeeper understood, because there were still outsiders around, he only withdrew his gloomy eyes and put on a smile: "Hahaha, Mrs. Xue's gift is as generous as ever, please come in quickly!"
As for Qian San, after he handed over the gift box, he only received a slightly perfunctory greeting.
Ren Yi: “…”
