Chapter 2077 Dinner Begins

(4, 0);

The woman in gauze was stunned for a moment and then hurried to meet him.

Although she was a little surprised, she still said in a calm voice, "Dear guests, please follow me to the banquet venue."

Hearing her words, Lin Yue glanced at her and did not move immediately, but stood there and asked.

"Your family elder said that he would like to give us the scroll of inheritance to read. When can we start?"

“I’m not sure about this either.”

The woman in gauze was speechless for a moment and answered with difficulty.

Although she knew that the lame old man had arranged relevant matters, she was not sure when he planned to give the scroll of inheritance to Lin Yue and the others for viewing.

"oh."

This answer was not unexpected for Lin Yue and Qing Bingying. They looked at each other and saw the deep meaning in each other's eyes.

When the lame old man was privately awakening the group of ancestors, Lin Yue and Qing Bingying were not idle either. After a brief rest, they made a series of plans based on the current situation, striving to leave this closed area as soon as possible.

Now seeing that the woman in gauze was unaware of this, Lin Yue and the others realized that the lame old man must be planning something. He first dragged them under the pretext of a dinner party, and until now he has not shown any sign of taking out the scroll of inheritance, which is completely inconsistent with his desire to leave this area.

"Then let's go."

Nevertheless, one has to bow his head when under the eaves. If one leaves the town, it will definitely take a lot of time to look for relevant clues, and there is no guarantee that they will find them.

So Lin Yue took Qing Bingying and followed the woman in gauze, and went to the banquet venue she mentioned.

After passing through several long corridors, everyone finally arrived in front of a tall golden door.

"Dear guests, this is the banquet venue."

The woman in gauze turned around and spoke respectfully, then pushed open the golden door for Lin Yue and the others.

Boom——

Accompanied by a heavy friction sound, the door was slowly pushed open, and the scene inside the door appeared in front of Lin Yue and the others.

In a huge and magnificent room, there were more than a dozen rectangular tables. Some men and women in noble attire were talking and laughing about something. When they saw Lin Yue and his friends appear, the whole venue fell silent for a moment.

Everyone looked here in surprise. As the upper class of the clan, they had already learned the reason for holding this dinner from the lame old man, so they were extremely curious about Lin Yue.

Of course, with their shrewdness, they did not talk to Lin Yue immediately, but instead gave him and Qing Bingying a kind smile.

Lin Yue responded to them with a normal expression and nodded. Under the guidance of the woman in gauze, he and Qing Bingying walked to the table in the front.

"Please take your seats, my two distinguished guests. The elder will be here as soon as he finishes his business."

The woman in gauze said this respectfully, and then stood behind Lin Yue.

"Um."

After hearing this, Lin Yue found a chair and sat down, then looked around.

Different from the lively scenes at other tables, this table at the front only had two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, besides Lin Yue and Qing Bingying. They looked very indifferent and did not react at all when Lin Yue and the others took their seats, as if they did not exist.

At this moment, Lin Yue noticed the dishes on the table. His pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly, and his heart began to shake violently.

“These dishes…!”

Although Lin Yue didn't often show off his cooking skills, he had enough knowledge to tell that the ingredients of the dishes in front of him were all rotten!

He controlled his expression and looked at the other tables, and found that the dishes on each table were exactly the same, all made of rotten meat.

"Do the people here eat carrion...?"

Lin Yue resisted the urge to ask, and instead sent a message to Qing Bingying.

"Don't eat the food here for a while."

After hearing Lin Yue's voice transmission, Qing Bingying immediately nodded, then looked at the table in front of her puzzledly and asked Lin Yue.

"Friend Lin, are there any drugs in these dishes?"

"No." Lin Yue replied solemnly, "From what I've observed, these dishes are all made from rotten meat."

"What……!"

After receiving this answer, Qing Bingying suddenly felt nauseous and her eyes trembled violently.

She knew that the customs between each domain or race were completely different, but eating such rotten meat was really disgusting!

Just as the two were shocked by this discovery, cheers suddenly came from the meeting hall.

Lin Yue looked in the direction where the voice came from and found that it was a lame old man who slowly walked into the room, and those people in noble attire were greeting him flatteringly one by one.

"How can this guy have such a high status in the city?"

Seeing this scene, Lin Yue couldn't help but secretly said in his heart.

He knew that the lame old man was not ordinary, but in this place, the status of the family elder was obviously much more honorable than he imagined. In the entire dinner venue, except for the two middle-aged people at his table, everyone stood up and greeted the lame old man with a smile. (5,0);

The lame old man had a cold look on his face until he approached Lin Yue's table. Then his expression relaxed a little and he asked Lin Yue with a smile.

"Did you two have a good rest?"

Seeing the lame old man's attitude towards Lin Yue, the guests at other tables looked at each other with a hint of surprise in their eyes. They were not stupid and immediately realized that the identities of Lin Yue and the other two were much more important than they had imagined.

"very good."

Faced with the lame old man's question, Lin Yue did not stand up, but replied indifferently.

The lame old man was not angry when he saw this. He naturally sat down next to Lin Yue, then turned to the woman in gauze and gave instructions.

"Pass the order down, the dinner can begin now."

"OK."

The woman in gauze nodded, turned around and left to arrange for several other maids, and began to get busy.

Soon, new dishes were brought up by the maids.

Lin Yue then realized that the dishes previously placed on the table were just some appetizers, and the new dishes all contained ingredients that were unsightly.

From the lame old man's reaction, it can be seen that the appearance of these dishes was within his expectations, or it could be said that these were completely arranged by him.

"What does the patriarch mean by arranging these dishes?" Lin Yue asked with a cold face.

Although these words might cause trouble, Lin Yue still said them.

No matter whether this was a warning from the other party or some special custom, he needed a reasonable explanation!
