Chapter Seventy-Four: Choosing a Son-in-law
After yesterday's uproar, Mo Tear and Gou Jian's bad mood at that time instantly improved a lot, but after a night of baptism, the moment they opened their eyes, all the troubles came to their minds again.
Fortunately, not long ago, Mo Tear, Gou Jian, Lin Xiaomu and Da Xi Yaoshui were all notified that the Demon Lord was going to meet them, when they heard the news, Gou Jian was surprised, Lin Xiaomu and Da Xi Yaoshui were confused, and Mo Tear was extremely happy.
I asked to see them many times before, but I was refused, and now I actually took the initiative to see them. He believes that only by seeing the Demon Lord can he solve the troubles that have been pressed in his heart for a long time.
In fact, these days, the Demon Lord didn't mean not to see him, but he was too busy, after all, he hadn't been out for so many years, time flies, the vicissitudes of life, the outside has really changed too much, in these ten days, he not only has to understand the situation at the moment, but also met with many old people, where can he take care of their children.
At this moment, the four of them had just entered the palace, and everyone's eyes were on them, although it was noon, the palace was as dark and gloomy as ever.
Mo Tear and the other four people, who were stunned by the dark gaze that looked at their scalps numb, unconsciously lowered their heads, walked forward slowly, and finally found an inconspicuous position and sat down in panic.
The people present were made in two rows, and on the stone chairs on several steps, the Demon Lord sat on the chairs, looking without the slightest imperial majesty.
There was also a statue-like man standing next to him, that was the strongest general of the demon clan, Han Yu.
As soon as the demon lord came out, all the clans surrendered, and the three caves and twelve villages, which were originally in rebellion, had already been surrendered by He Ye, but after so many years, they were still ambitious, and they were ready to move in private, and they resolutely wanted to usurp the demon lord's government, but when they heard that the demon lord was out of the light, they were instantly frightened, and without saying a word, they came to ask for guilt hastily.
Most of the people sitting below were the leaders of various tribes, and they all knew very well that the thin old man sitting on the stage was not something they could afford to provoke. Although the entire demon race seems to be united, most of the reason is because of the existence of the Demon Lord.
Of course, most of the people here are seeing the Demon Lord for the first time, because their parents and grandparents have already died of illness and old age, and for them, the power of the Demon Lord is limited to the description of their fathers and grandparents.
Although these people were disappointed at the first sight of him, they still did not dare to be presumptuous, because in their minds, the Demon Lord was already a god-like existence, and who cared what he looked like?
The Demon Lord slowly opened his lowered eyes, and a voice like a bell suddenly sounded, shaking his heart, "Thanks to your love for many years, I have been sitting in this position. Naturally, the reason why I can sit all the time is because I have the ability to sit all the time, and if anyone is not satisfied, they can stand up and talk to me directly, and there is no need to implicate others and provoke chaos within the clan. ”
This sentence is obviously said to the leaders of the three caves and twelve villages, and it can be said that this is a warning, and it is also the first naked deterrence in many years.
When the leader of the Three Caves and Twelve Villages heard this, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat with fright, he was one of the few people here who had really seen the reality of the Demon Lord, and he had an unspeakable fear in his heart for the gray-haired old man on the steps.
When the other leaders heard this, their hearts were also cold, and everyone lowered their heads and kept silent, as if the air had frozen in the entire huge space.
"Since you don't have anyone to come forward, I don't want to see racial divisions in the future. The Demon Lord looked at the group of Vivino leaders under the steps, with a look of contempt in his eyes, he hoped that there would be a few warriors who stood up, at least to prove that in this era, there are still men in the Demon Clan who are not afraid of death, but looking at this scene, he was disappointed and even more angry.
All the chiefs immediately replied respectfully, "Yes, according to the orders of the sovereign." ”
The Demon Lord sighed, this one, sighed very decadently, thinking about the battle with the god back then, how happy the fight was, where would the people at that time be like now, for the so-called rights, living only promises, flies camp dogs, without the slightest openness, bravery, fearless.
"The deity has been in retreat for many years, and this time I called everyone to come and only say two things. The first thing is that the little girl has just recovered from a serious illness and has reached the age of marriage, so she wants to choose a son-in-law for the little girl. The second thing is that the Bai Yuan Sword that was lost a hundred years ago has been recovered, and it has begun to be reforged. The Demon Lord said lightly.
The leaders of each group were stunned at first, but the next second they immediately smiled and said flatteringly, "Congratulations, congratulations!"
And Hetian was very surprised, this matter was so sudden, the Demon Lord had never told him.
Mo Tear listened carefully beside him, his eyes flashed with disappointment, thinking that on this occasion, it would be difficult for him to ask questions to the demons, besides, the Demon Lord called them to come here, and what he said had nothing to do with them at all, so he thought that this time it would definitely be in vain.
"Tian'er, do you have someone in mind?" the demon asked directly.
Although the customs of the demon clan are open and the folk customs are fierce, but in this way, in front of the public, asking such a question, Hetian was both surprised and shy.
But thinking that my father had said everything in front of so many people this time, I couldn't marry if I didn't want to.
To be honest, she has been lying in a hospital bed for most of her life, so she has seen very few men, let alone understood, and the only man she knows the most is her own brother and Ye.
Gou Jian looked at him with a shy and tangled look on his face, and laughed loudly in his heart, let you bully me, let you beat me, and now you have retribution, right? Sure enough, the wicked have their own wicked people, and this person is still your father, it's really funny.
Thinking about it, Gou Jian actually laughed out loud, this laugh frightened Mo Tear, Lin Xiaomu and Da Xi Yaoshui, they all looked at him with frightened eyes, not to mention the others, and their faces were full of confusion.
"As a little brother, why are you laughing?" the demon asked.
Gou Jian was already frightened by his own smile, panicked, panicked, and replied incoherently, "I, I." ”
The four feelings of ink tears were surprised and delighted, this kind of such a big surprise can often only be brought to him by Gou Jian, this stupid boy, how many times in such a situation, because of his divine reaction, and caused irreparable consequences.
Today's such a big surprise is also a rare occurrence in Mo Tear's life, and he scolded angrily in his heart, "It's your business that people want to marry, what are you laughing at? What's so funny? It would be nice if you could be so happy when you married your daughter-in-law...... Although Mo Tear scolded like this in his heart, he still had to remedy this kind of pig-like teammate in time.
"Demon Lord, I was so happy at first, so I asked a heartfelt smile. You can think about it! Marrying the princess is a good thing that the whole family is happy about, shouldn't you be happy? shouldn't you laugh?" Mo Tear hurriedly opened his mouth to cover for Gou Jian, but for the jokes he said, he felt that it was a little too shameless, but there was no way, compared to face, life is the most important thing.
The other people cast strange glances at Mo Tear, and that gaze was enough to explain everything, probably narrating that the human race was really good at arguing and clever in his tongue.
Mo Tear looked at one after another from time to time, nodded slightly and smirked, trying his best to hide the past.
Da Xi Yaoshui and Lin Xiaomu also felt very helpless and angry when they smiled at the person who was in the ink tears, which was tantamount to pulling teeth out of the tiger's mouth and provoking beyond their strength.
But listening to Mo Tear's clever words, he actually solved all this, and inadvertently breathed a sigh of relief.
He Tian looked at Gou Jian and smiled innocently, and couldn't help but think of the young man in front of him who was fighting with him two days ago, when this young man, no matter how he hit him, he didn't fight back, and finally because he shot too hard, he had to go around with his hair, and he thought he was very funny at the time, and couldn't help but have a good impression of him.
Obviously, when she first started, she had a deep affection for Mo Tears, but now that she thinks about it, the kind of affection she had at the beginning may be a kind of gratitude, a kind of gratitude that he fought hard and wanted to save himself, not the love she understood.
The leaders of the other tribes have long been impatient, like the Demon Lord introduced all kinds of young talents, and said that it was amazing, today it is thorough, all in all, those people are all better than Pan An in their mouths, they are only eight buckets taller, and their strength is outstanding.
Mo Tear and Gou Jian can hear that these words are exaggerated, most of them are false, if there is such a perfect person in the world, he will still fall in love with you, a broken princess.
And Hetian listened to their words, and felt even more disgusted, dogs can hear it, these people just value her identity, if they can marry her, it can really be said that one person has attained the Tao, and the chicken dog ascends to heaven.
He Tian slowly got up, came to the center, bowed slightly, and said softly, "I already have someone I like, thank you for your concern and uncles." ”
The Demon Lord's eyes lit up in an instant, his body sat up a little straighter, and he asked happily, "Who is it?" ”
He Tian's gaze jumped, swept through the two rows of people, and everywhere his eyes passed, everyone's eyes were happy, but when he stayed on Mo Tear, Mo Tear instantly felt creepy, thinking that this kind of joke could not be made.
Gou Jian glanced at Hetian slightly, followed her gaze to Mo Tear, read something, approached Mo Tear's ear, and said happily, "Brother Mo, what a blessing!"
Mo Tear gave him a fierce look, pushed his head away from his shoulder, and at the same time observed Lin Xiaomu to see if he heard Gou Jian's nonsense just now.
As the saying goes, a woman's heart is as thin as silk. Lin Xiaomu had already seen through all this, but she still had a trace of confusion, he didn't see a trace of love in the eyes of Princess Hetian, but thought about it.
The corners of Princess Hetian's mouth opened a smile, she herself looked extremely moving, this smile was even more charming, but this smile was fleeting, Mo Tear looked at the scalp numb, Gou Jian was even more happy in his heart, thinking that there would be a good show to watch.
But in the blink of an eye, Princess Hetian's gaze suddenly shifted to Gou Jian's body, and she looked at her quietly for a long time, and finally slowly raised her hand and turned her head, and said, "Father, Tian'er, the person you like is him." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Gou Jian remembered that even his jaw was about to fall, his mouth was half open, his eyes were shocked, and he pointed at himself.
This little aunt and grandmother, if you don't play like this, how can you like me? Gou Jian finally felt a feeling of crying and laughing at this moment.
Mo Tear's mood changed, and he became much better in an instant, and he slowly put his head to his fear, and said in a serious voice, "Brother Gou, you are still blessed!
Gou Jian blushed instantly, but fortunately, there was not enough light here, and few people could notice the changes in his face.
However, when Princess Hetian pointed to Gou Jian and said that sentence, many people were surprised, and began to discuss, the discussion became louder and louder, and finally it was directly questioning. The voices of opposition echoed throughout the empty palace.
The Demon Lord coughed slightly, and all the chaotic arguments and objections came to an abrupt end.
"Oh my God, you're serious. The Demon Lord asked.
Waiting for the sky, her idea is very simple, instead of marrying each other like a tool with a man she has never met, it is better to choose the stupid and cute young man in front of her at the moment, at least she still has a good impression of each other, and the relationship can be cultivated slowly. What's more, the other party can't beat him.
The demon lord slapped his thigh violently, and his heroic voice sounded instantly, "Okay, my father is in charge for you, choose a good day, and get married." ”
Gou Jian was frightened like a mourner, what is this, why don't you ask me what I mean.
Gou Jian just wanted to stand up, but he refused loudly, but Mo Tear grabbed him, shook his head seriously, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito, "This is not the time to refuse, sit down first, and talk about this later." ”
Gou Jian listened to this, and after a cursory thought, it did make sense, if he refused in public in this kind of scene, the other party was a princess, and his father was still a king, which was equivalent to slapping them in the face.
So when he heard the words of Mo Tears, he lowered his head and looked embarrassed.
Since the Demon Lord spoke, the others didn't dare to raise any more doubts, and they hurriedly said hello.
The Demon Lord sat on the stone chair with a smile on his face, and He Ye, who had always been harsh and arrogant, did not raise any objections, but smiled calmly.
All of this happened so suddenly, which made Lin Xiaomu, Mo Tear, Gou Jian, and Da Xi Yaoshui at a loss.
Mo Tear thought about it carefully, this is not a bad thing, if Gou Jian and Princess He Water get married, no matter from one aspect, Gou Jian has picked up a big bargain, at that time, he can also rely on this relationship to solve all the troubles in happiness, why not do this kind of good thing? But the most important thing is that he still depends on how Gou Jian decides, if Gou Jian opposes, although things will become more unfavorable, he will still do everything possible to help this stupid brother.
