Siheyuan World, No. 95 Courtyard.

It was already April of 1966.

Today is the weekend, and the steel rolling mill is closed.

Ding Qiunan went back to her parents' home, leaving Xiao Shan alone at home.

Xiao Shan listened to the radio while chatting with other people in the chat room.

Watching the conversation between Ying Zheng and Liu Bei, Xiao Shan couldn't help but sigh, "None of those who have made their mark on history are easy to deal with!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Xiao Shan turned off the radio and came out of the bedroom.

As he prepared to open the door, he asked, "Who is it?"

"Xiaoshan, it's me, Guangtian!" Liu Guangtian's voice came from outside.

Xiao Shan opened the door and looked at Liu Guangtian, asking, "What's wrong, Guangtian? Is Second Uncle going to call another meeting?"

"No, no!" Liu Guangtian waved his hand and said, "My dad asked me to invite you to my house for lunch!"

Xiao Shan was taken aback: "Second Uncle would actually invite me to dinner?"

Then he looked at Liu Guangtian and asked, "Guangtian, what happened?"

"I don't know either!" Liu Guangtian shook his head and said, "My dad went out this morning to buy wine and food, and when he came back, he asked me to come and call you over for lunch!"

When Xiao Shan arrived at Liu Guangtian's home, he found that Liu Haizhong was unusually enthusiastic today.

As soon as he entered, Liu Haizhong took Xiao Shan's hand and said, "Xiao Shan, that brat Guang Tian has received a lot of care from you. I've been wanting to treat you to a meal for a long time! But I've been too busy with other things, so I've been putting it off. Today is the perfect opportunity to make up for it."

"Second Uncle, you're being too polite!" Xiao Shan waved his hand and said, "We've been neighbors for so many years, and Guang Tian and I are such good friends, just say the word if you need anything!"

While the two were exchanging pleasantries, Auntie Er had already prepared the meal.

Liu Haizhong, Liu Guangtian, and Liu Guangfu were at the table, while Xiao Shan was invited to sit alone.

While pouring wine for Xiao Shan, Liu Guangfu flattered him, saying, "Brother Xiao Shan, I've admired you since I was a child. A level eight worker in your twenties, you can't find another one like you in the entire city of Beijing!"

Xiao Shan laughed and said that he was just a little luckier.

"You two brats, I'd be satisfied if you had half of Xiaoshan's skills!" Liu Haizhong raised his glass. "Come on, Xiaoshan, let's drink!"

Xiao Shan picked up his wine glass and took a sip; it was still the familiar taste.

Shanxi Fenjiu!

After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, the atmosphere at the dinner table gradually became lively.

Liu Haizhong put down his wine glass, looked at Xiao Shan and asked, "Xiao Shan, the situation is getting more and more serious, and I'm starting to not know what to do!"

As time went on, the situation became increasingly dire.

People are noticeably more perceptive in the capital than in other places.

Therefore, even Liu Haizhong sensed the change in the situation.

Therefore, he specially invited Xiaoshan for drinks, hoping to get some guidance from Xiaoshan.

Upon hearing Liu Haizhong's words, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu both looked at Xiaoshan.

Facing the gazes of Liu Haizhong and his two sons, Xiao Shan smiled and said, "Second Uncle, industry is the foundation, the basis for national revitalization. No matter what, the workers will not be in disarray. Just stay in the workshop and be a master craftsman. No matter how things change outside, it won't affect you!"

"After all, not just anyone can be a senior technician. Without experienced masters like you, the steel rolling mill simply can't complete its tasks. If the steel rolling mill can't complete its tasks, it will affect the country's development!"

Liu Haizhong and his two sons all nodded in agreement, agreeing with what Xiao Shan said.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Haizhong said to Xiao Shan, "Xiao Shan, what you said makes sense! But I haven't been an official for so many years, and I've always had this wish in my heart! Xiao Shan, could you help me think of a way to fulfill this wish before I retire?"

Seeing Liu Haizhong's official-obsessed appearance, Xiao Shan felt somewhat helpless.

“Second Uncle, if you're content to be a worker, outside affairs won't affect you! But if you become an official, it's a different story!” Xiao Shan looked at Liu Haizhong and said, “As the saying goes, the higher you fear, the harder you fall. Second Uncle, are you sure you want to do this?”

"This..." Liu Haizhong hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and nodded.

Good advice is useless against a damned devil. Xiao Shan said to Liu Haizhong, "Alright, Second Uncle, you just wait patiently! Your chance will come when the situation changes drastically!"

Liu Haizhong immediately beamed with joy and repeatedly toasted Xiao Shan.

After the guests and hosts had a pleasant time, Xiao Shan left Liu Haizhong's house.

Liu Guangtian followed Xiao Shan to his home and asked with some concern, "Xiao Shan, do you think my dad can really become an official? He's not very bright sometimes and he's not good at speaking. He's fine as a worker, but I'm afraid he's not capable enough to be an official!"

"Guangtian, don't underestimate Second Uncle. He has a much better grasp of the situation than you do," Xiao Shan said to Liu Guangtian. "But if Second Uncle becomes an official, you should remind him more often, lest the higher he climbs, the harder he falls!"

Liu Guangtian nodded and left his home in Xiaoshan with a worried expression.

That evening, Ding Qiunan returned from her parents' home.

"Wife, have you eaten yet?" Xiao Shan asked as he watched Ding Qiunan return and was having dinner.

Ding Qiunan put down her things, found a chair and sat down: "I've already eaten!"

Xiao Shan nodded: "Did you tell your father-in-law what I asked you to say?"

When Ding Qiunan returned to her parents' home, Xiao Shan told her to tell her father-in-law that the situation was about to change drastically, and that she should just focus on doing her job well and not do anything that might cause trouble.

Also, make sure to carefully read the quotes and collections I sent them before.

It would be best to let the neighbors and colleagues know that they are reading these books.

"I told you!" Ding Qiunan nodded. "Dad said he'll be careful!"

Xiao Shan picked up his glass and drank it all in one gulp: "That's good!"

After dinner, Ding Qiunan got up to clear the dishes, while Xiao Shan went out for a walk.

Although with Xiao Shan's current strength, as long as he circulates his internal energy, the food he eats can be absorbed quickly.

However, people in Xiaoshan generally don't do that, and they still maintain the habit of taking a stroll after meals.

Xiao Shan strolled around the courtyard while watching the chat in the group chat.

Zhang Chulan: "@Huang Rong, Rong'er, you said before that your father was preparing to convene the second Mount Hua Sword Tournament. How are the preparations going?"

Huang Rong: "My father and I are on Mount Hua right now, waiting for Hong Qigong and the other Five Greats to arrive!"

Ren Weiyong: "Then we should do a live stream so everyone can enjoy it!"

Huang Rong: "No problem, I'll start a live stream when the fight begins!"

The world of Legend of the Condor Heroes, Mount Hua in the west.

It was formerly known as the Western Mountain and is one of the Five Sacred Mountains.

At this time, a number of martial arts practitioners had already gathered at the top of Mount Hua.

These martial arts practitioners gathered here naturally to witness the second Mount Hua Sword Tournament.

As noon approached, none of the Five Greats had arrived, and the martial arts enthusiasts who were watching the drama began to stir.

Just then, Hong Qigong, holding a dog-beating stick and carrying a large vermilion gourd on his back, slowly walked up to the top of the mountain.

Upon seeing Hong Qigong appear, the martial arts practitioners present became excited.

After a while, Ouyang Feng, who looked like a man from the Western Regions, also arrived at the top of the mountain.

Compared to when Hong Qigong arrived, everyone rushed forward to greet him.

When Ouyang Feng came up, everyone subconsciously put some distance between him and made way for him.

Ouyang Feng approached Hong Qigong, smiled, and cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "Brother Qi, how have you been?"

"What does it matter if this old beggar is unwell or not? I'll just take it one day at a time!" Hong Qigong replied with a smile.

Ouyang Feng tapped his snake staff lightly on the ground, then looked at Hong Qigong and said, "Seventh Brother, do you know why Brother Yao convened the second Mount Hua Sword Tournament ahead of schedule?"

"I'm not entirely sure of the specific reason either!" Hong Qigong shook his head, took the gourd off his back, uncorked it, took a sip of wine, and said, "However, I heard that Brother Yao recently visited various sects and borrowed quite a few martial arts manuals from them!"

Ouyang Feng's eyes lit up: "So, Brother Yao's strength has improved even further?"

For Ouyang Feng, the stronger the opponent, the more excited he becomes!

Although he was defeated by Wang Chongyang, Ouyang Feng was not discouraged. Instead, he always wanted to defeat Wang Chongyang and take back the title of the best in the world.

Unfortunately, Wang Chongyang died the year after the first Mount Hua Sword Tournament.

Ouyang Feng naturally had no chance to challenge him again.

"He should have improved!" Hong Qigong nodded. "Otherwise, Brother Yao wouldn't have convened the second Mount Hua Sword Tournament ahead of schedule! But as for how much he's improved, we'll only know after we see Brother Yao!"

Ouyang Feng agreed with Hong Qigong's words: "Seventh Brother is right! But now that Brother Duan has gone from being an emperor to Master Yideng, do you think he will still participate in this Mount Hua Sword Tournament?"

Before Hong Qigong could speak, Master Yideng, dressed in a yellow robe, appeared in everyone's sight.

"They've arrived!" Hong Qigong said to Ouyang Feng with a smile as he watched Master Yideng approach.

After the three exchanged greetings, Huang Yaoshi still did not appear.

After looking around for a while, Hong Qigong shouted to the sky, "Brother Yao, since you invited us to participate in the Mount Hua Sword Tournament, it's a bit unreasonable for you, the initiator, not to show up!"

"Indeed, could it be that Brother Yao is making fun of us?" Ouyang Feng slammed his spirit snake staff on the ground and said coldly.

"Amitabha!" Master Yideng uttered a Buddhist chant without saying anything more.

The onlookers were also whispering and discussing among themselves.

"Hahaha……"

Just then, a hearty laugh came from above everyone's heads.

The voice was ethereal and melodious, causing everyone's expression to change slightly.

Such profound cultivation!

Ouyang Feng, Hong Qigong, and Yideng all looked up at Lotus Peak simultaneously.

With their abilities, they naturally discerned the direction from which the sound came.

The three exchanged a glance, each seeing the seriousness in the other's eyes, and a hint of fervor deep within them.

Then Hong Qigong shouted, "Let's go, to Lotus Peak!"

The three of them trembled violently, and then instantly transformed into a silver streak, shooting straight towards the summit of Lotus Peak.

Lotus Peak is a single, perfectly formed boulder.

You need to have a certain level of strength to get up there!

Seeing Hong Qigong and his two companions heading towards Lotus Peak, the onlookers also flocked to Lotus Peak.

However, only a small number of onlookers were able to successfully climb Lotus Peak.

When Hong Qigong and his two companions arrived at the summit of Lotus Peak, they saw Huang Yaoshi and his daughter Huang Rong, who had been waiting for them.

When Huang Rong saw Hong Qigong and the other two appear, she promptly opened a live stream in the chat group.

As Huang Rong opened her live stream, chatters flocked in, eager to witness the second Mount Hua Sword Tournament.

"Seventh Brother, Feng Brother, Duan Brother, how have you been?" Huang Yaoshi greeted Hong Qigong and the other two brothers familiarly.

As for the onlookers who followed along, although their strength was already considered top-notch in the martial arts world, Huang Yaoshi still ignored them.

Sensing the aura emanating from Huang Yaoshi, Hong Qigong asked tremblingly, "Brother Yaoshi, have you broken through?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present turned to look at Huang Yaoshi.

At the same time, they pricked up their ears, afraid of missing a single word.

Huang Yaoshi nodded slightly: "That's right, I have broken through the Innate Realm and advanced to the Grandmaster Realm!"

"Excellent, excellent, excellent! So there really is a higher realm beyond the Innate Realm!" Master Yideng exclaimed excitedly. "The path ahead is not yet closed; this is a blessing for us martial artists!"

"I never expected that the four of us would actually get ahead of you, Huang Yaoshi!" Ouyang Feng exclaimed with a complex expression and a hint of jealousy.

Suddenly, Ouyang Feng noticed the pretty Huang Rong standing to the side and his heart skipped a beat: "Brother Yao, is that your daughter? I didn't expect her to be so grown up!"

"Indeed, it is my daughter Huang Rong!" Huang Yaoshi nodded.
