Chapter 345 Paid Slacking Is the Most Enjoyable

Because they were afraid that the guests behind them would feel left out and get anxious, and cause unnecessary trouble, the banquet waiters arranged for the three of them to come in one after the other.

So even though the most basic welcoming etiquette still existed, which gave the guests some space to rest, such a strong drink was poured down in one breath... Once the alcohol was strong, how could it be so easy to slow down?

Having already drunk two cups in a row, looking at the third cup in front of them, no matter who it was, it was really a bit scary. And you can't just drink it. Everyone is a respectable person, and you have to say a toast before drinking, which is even more stressful.

So when Ji Ming looked around, he saw a room full of distorted red-faced monsters, trying their best to control their numb and tingling mouths and tongues, and holding up a barely able expression.

Those who knew said that they were praising the courage of the chosen people of God against the incarnation of the evil god, and those who didn't know thought they were chanting sutras and rapping for new Kpop songs.

Ji Ming: ...

Awesome, you Radiant people are really good at playing.

However, most of those who are stumped by these three glasses of strong liquor are low-level martial arts geniuses who can't even get on the professional panel.

There are still tough guys among the guests who don't frown when drinking strong liquor. After showing their empty cups, they came over to talk to Ji Ming.

Considering that the other party has surpassed the size of a double-door refrigerator in Korean comics and can directly play the fierce image of a super-strong and tough guy in Hong Kong comics, Ji Ming thinks he should be the contemporary Duke Jueqiao.

Sure enough, in the next second, this tough guy with a palm bigger than his head stretched out his hand.

"Hello, Mr. Chosen, I am the 18th Duke of Jueqiao, my name is Hetman, thank you for the hard journey."

"Hello, Mr. Duke, my name is Ji Ming, may the Holy Light protect you."

After shaking hands with him, Ji Ming raised his head and suddenly felt like he was back in kindergarten, trying to get close to the chef, wondering if he could have a piece of fried cake in advance.

But the man in front of him obviously didn't have the old uncle's honesty that Ji Ming could coax him into cooking for him every day. As the manager of the largest industry in the southern part of the kingdom, Hetman's seemingly rough appearance is naturally a meticulous old thief who is very careful and calculated.

It's a pity, so what?

Ji Ming's skill points are all in this field. Coupled with the dual influence of charm and suggestion, Hetman chatted with him for a long time without realizing it, so long that the length of time is already the sum of the previous two VIPs.

This is a very rude behavior. If someone is interested in making a fuss about it, saying that as the Duke of the Kingdom, he treats people differently and openly looks down on meritorious officials and royal descendants...

Although it is true that such groundless speculations can't do anything to me, who wants this mud to fall on them?

So Hetman could only resist the desire to continue chatting and found an excuse to end the conversation.

"I heard that you are here tonight, and there are more guests than I thought. Good things are good things, but as the host, I still have a lot of things to deal with. I won't stay here with you. Please understand."

"I understand, please do as you please."

The guests who finally survived these three deadly glasses of liquor and suffered a lot also relaxed.

At this moment, seeing Hetman turn around and leave, several smart people immediately came up and tried to talk to this mysterious and inexplicable God-chosen saint.

Although Ji Ming has done a lot in Sunshine City, it has only been less than three months since he started to operate. The main activity location is the extremely remote south of Jueqiao Pass, and many news are too delayed.

Therefore, after leaving Heisen Territory, his most complete deeds can only be circulated among a few sensitive senior officials in the kingdom and the core managers within the church. For more people, his biggest impression, or the biggest controversy, is still the phrase "God's Chosen from Outside Civilization".

The people think that the noble lords are not alive. They only know how to eat, drink and have fun all day long. I don't know where they dragged a vase out as this mascot. If they dare to let the barbarians take the throne today, they may be able to bring Shenlin into the pass tomorrow.

The noble lords think that the church masters are not alive. A bunch of hypocrites are scheming against each other all day long to seek power, and as a result, after so much time, this "God's Chosen Saint" made of 24K pure gold has fallen into the hands of outsiders, all of whom are court-level clowns.

The church masters were more direct. After hearing that Ji Ming had a high charm and many ways to make money, they all speculated privately whether this boy was a bastard of the cardinal, or whether he was in line with the traditional skills of the church and had some differences with the elderly Pope in terms of the issue of sex.

——In short, Ding Zhen of the other profession was identified as pure charm.

Therefore, these celebrities had already made up their minds to do their best and lick this young man first no matter what he was, but they unexpectedly found that Ji Ming was not only more decent than them, but also more noble than them.

"Wow, the chosen one is more elegant than I thought."

They continued to chat with the intention of digging for treasure and finding a happy mood, but were surprised to find that the chosen one in front of them was simply a good medicine to heal their pain. Every word he said was just right, and every speech was refreshing.

Whether it is a 50-year-old old-timer who has been struggling in the social scene for many years, or a rich girl who has just entered the game and is trying to exchange her beauty for future capital.

No matter what their purpose, experience, or thoughts are, they all unconsciously enter the rhythm of the language of the God's Choice and cannot extricate themselves, so in a blink of an eye, a large group of guests surrounded him, and the communication was vaguely centered on him.

Ji Ming can do this, of course, not only because of his charm and rhetoric. If it were just that, he would not be able to fool so many old thieves who would not show their eagles until they see the rabbit. The main reason is that he inadvertently revealed some of his own unique competitiveness, such as...

"Oh my God, what are these black air emanating from me? This... is right! That's right! I remembered that when I was taking a caravan out to do business, I offended an old wizard. It was from then on that my body became weaker and weaker. Was it because of the curse?"

Putting away the calming talisman emitting golden light again, Ji Ming smiled slightly.

"That's right."

"I thought you were only good at medicine, but I didn't expect you to know so much about antiquities. Haha, it's actually a treasure from the Holy Tree Kingdom back then. I'll have to thank my old brother later."

Ji Ming smiled slightly after moving the transparent box that the boss had pasted in his field of vision away.

"I know a little bit."

"God's Chosen One, I've been feeling weak~hot~very energetic~can't sleep~can you come to my room tonight to treat me~"

Ji Ming smiled slightly after moving away from the overly enthusiastic lady with the old man next to him.

"No."

At this point, the guests who were originally thinking about how unlucky they were today and had to endure both physical and mental torture found that they were reluctant to leave after just a few words.

If there is a visual reputation in this world, then the current value of Ji Ming should be rising at a straight rate in the local area.

Many guests who had not thought highly of the chosen one before also tried to squeeze into the circle and say a few auspicious words to him, so as to make him familiar.

"Haha, in fact, some of my caravans would also go south to Jueqiao Pass to do business with more distant places, so I have heard of the name of the chosen one before. Seeing him today, he is indeed handsome and heroic... Then I will not bother you anymore. I hope we can have a chance to meet again next time!"

The kind old man walked out of the circle with a smile, came to the corner in silence, and coughed lightly. Someone immediately came out of the shadows.

"My lord, please give me your orders."

The old man's eyes were fierce and he gritted his teeth.

"Investigate all our spies south of Jueqiao Pass and see what information they report to me? Is the Chosen One of the Holy Light Family a barbarian? Is the power of the church here extremely weak? I think they have never been to Sunshine City!"

"Yes, sir!"

The messenger who received the order immediately turned into a green smoke and disappeared. Only a faint scent of grass and wood remained on the spot, and it disappeared again quickly.

So after this, Ji Ming would feel from time to time that his merits seemed to have increased a little inexplicably, because he indirectly killed another bastard who deceived his superiors and bullied his subordinates, and made money from both sides, and his other behaviors were even more bad...

However, no matter how good he was at dancing with his sleeves and getting along with everyone, Ji Ming himself was the only one, and the celebrities from all walks of life were "flowing". Looking around, he couldn't chat with them at all. Feeling exhausted physically and mentally, he could only slowly attract the crowd to the toilet and then take the opportunity to urinate.

But when he got into this super clean toilet with a magic water supply system, he found that he was in such a hurry that he even forgot to put the wine in his hand back. He came in with a glass of light golden whiskey.

…

"Very fresh, very delicious."

After taking a sip to calm down, Ji Ming recalled the reactions of the people before and found that they should still be immersed in the pleasant chat atmosphere and did not notice his outrageous behavior, so he took another sip to celebrate.

Putting the empty wine glass into the storage ring, Ji Ming rubbed his stiff face in front of the mirror and suddenly felt like when he was still a worker, he would sneak into the toilet to take a paid shit whenever he had the chance.

Alas, playing games secretly is the most fun, and slacking off is also the most fun. Now recalling it, it seems that I still miss it a little bit...

So he, who originally planned to take a short break and then cheer up to fight again, suddenly didn't want to go out. After all, he had been sitting in a carriage for a whole day, and high-intensity battles were too tiring. It's better to rest for a while.

So once the thought came up, the world was wide, Ji Ming hummed a cheerful little song, and decided to find a clean cubicle to take a break, check his phone or something.

But just as he opened the first cubicle, he found a person squatting on the toilet in a strange posture, and in the next second, because his hands were inexplicably stretched forward and exerted force, he lost his balance and fell towards him.

"Ah!"

Ji Ming thought that he had just rejected too many times, and a few particularly greedy fierce men wanted to squat in the bush to gank him, so he was scared and quickly took the other party out of his arms, but when he looked closely, he found that it was an acquaintance.

"Eleanor, you...what are you doing in the men's toilet?"

Eleanor was still in shock and blurted out.

"I...I locked the door."

"No, there was no resistance throughout the whole process."

"But I... pulled it in advance, and it can't be opened."

"From your point of view, this door should be pushed, so of course it can't be opened by pulling it."

"But I... I was clearly pushing the door very hard!"

Now Ji Ming began to doubt himself, and even turned his head to look at the mechanical structure of the partition door.

"I've already told you that this door needs to be pushed, what's the point of pushing it?"

Now Eleanor was completely speechless. After taking it off and standing it up again like a piece of rice cake, she stood blankly between the toilet and Ji Ming, motionless as if the network was disconnected, and the color turned gray.

Ji Ming looked around and found that the sound of the party was still far away, and the toilet was still extremely quiet, so he felt relieved and asked another question.

"What? Are you annoyed by the party and want to hide and get through it?"

"Uh...ah! Yes!"

Eleanor instantly regained her ability to think and nodded vigorously.

"I'm not inexperienced in such occasions, but it's too tiring to be surrounded by a large group of people and chat! And I'm carsick, my brain is already groggy, and I feel that if I continue, I will definitely say too much and make mistakes..."

"...Then you sneaked away under the banner of convenience, but because you were dizzy and confused, you couldn't see the door sign clearly, and accidentally hid in the men's restroom?"

Eleanor exclaimed.

"Right, right! How did you know!"

Because I was also...

Ji Ming, who was glad that he put away the cup casually, otherwise he would be embarrassed today, showed an expression of "as expected", shook his head and sighed calmly.

"It's just a little cause and effect reasoning, it's not that mysterious."

Eleanor didn't say anything after hearing this, but lowered her head and kicked the ground with her small leather boots. When she spoke again, it was a strange sentence.

"In fact, I was looking at you just now."

She suddenly raised her head and looked at Ji Ming, with a bit of sadness in her eyes.

"I was thinking of helping you as a social elder, so that you wouldn't feel left out or embarrassed. But I saw that it was your first time attending a formal banquet in the Kingdom style, and you were surrounded by strangers you had just met for the first time, but you were able to chat with everyone, as if you were chatting and laughing with old friends you had known for many years."

...

"Ji Ming, can you tell me how you did it?"

"Ah this..."

Ji Ming showed his signature kind smile again, but what he was thinking was, do you want me to teach you social etiquette in the bathroom?
