Chapter Forty-Eight: It's New Year
The secret realm is an individual who is based on the big world, but independent of the big world.
Secret realm, although there are not many in the Shenzhou Continent, there are also a lot.
The strength of a country, sect, or family is closely related to the number of secret realms they have.
Some secret realms are naturally suitable for the growth of elixirs, some secret realms are crisscrossed by demon beasts, some secret realms are rich in minerals, and some secret realms have extremely fast time flow......
In short, the benefits of each are different depending on the secret realm.
But one thing is the same, that is, every time the secret realm is opened, it is a big event, and many people will gather to enter and find opportunities. Either compete for elixir or grab minerals......
The Longmen Secret Realm is the largest secret realm in the Great Zhou Kingdom, and it is also the strangest secret realm.
The entrance of the Longmen Secret Realm is located between Fulong Mountain and Fuhu Mountain on the bank of Luoshui outside Luoyang City.
It opens every ten years, and now it's been ten years since the last time it was opened.
Dongluo squatted in the snow in the middle of the yard, pushing the snowman with his eyes intently. Erhei and Sanhei kept pushing snowballs from other places with their little paws.
Sanhei pushed a snowball bigger than him like a shell, panting and sighing tiredly.
Every time a snowball is pushed, lie on your back on the snow and rest for a while.
Xue Nianci introduced the Dragon Gate Secret Realm on the side.
Dongluo pushed a snowball over from Sanhei and pasted it into a big snowman, "You mean, on February 2 next year, when the dragon raises its head, it will be the time when the Dragon Gate Secret Realm opens?
Xue Nianci sat in a wheelchair and nodded: "Yes, not only the Eight Kings of the Great Zhou have been to the Longmen Secret Realm, but even Zhou Tianzi has also been there." Of course, not only them, but also many people who have been to the Dragon Gate Secret Realm, as long as you go to Qin Tianjian to pay a batch of huge spirit stones, you can obtain the qualification to enter. But it's not that you can enter after paying the spirit stone, and you have to pass the screening of Qin Tianjian. ”
Dongluo frowned and said: "Then if you spend a lot of money, buy a place to enter, and don't get anything in the secret realm, then you won't lose money!"
Xue Nianci opened his palm and caught a crystal snowflake that fell from a high place, the palm spirit qi surged gently, and the snowflakes kept rolling over his palm, and after rolling for a while, he grabbed it, and then melted in his palm.
Xue Nianci tilted her head and said to the young man who was moving snowballs as hard as ants moving: "Many families don't have only one person entering, as long as one person has something to gain in the secret realm, then all the previous efforts will not only not be lost, but even a lot of money." In this Great Zhou Dynasty, countless families arose in this way. ”
Dongluo looked up at Xue Nianci and said, "In a few days, I will go to Qintianjian to buy more than a dozen places, Aunt Zhang, you, me, the old housekeeper, Da Hei, we will all go." Anyway, we have a lot of money, and I don't feel comfortable spending it so lavishly when we have money. It's like the rich and noble don't return to their hometowns, and they panic. ”
Xue Nianci looked at Dongluo, who had the face of an upstart, and wanted to slap him on the face as soon as the mountains in the town. It's great to have money! It's not like that's how money is spent!
Xue Nianci took a deep breath and said, "You can just go alone." We won't go, the Longmen Secret Realm is the most special secret realm in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the Longmen Secret Realm is a place of the end of the law. There is no aura in it, and there is no aura to use, and all actions can only rely on one's own body. So we're not going to hold you back. ”
Xue Nianci thought for a while and said, "If you enter the Dragon Gate Secret Realm, be careful of the man behind the old woman today, his body seems to be very strong. ”
Dongluo nodded, he would be careful without Xue Nianci reminding him.
With Dongluo's divine sense and observation, it can naturally be seen at a glance. The old woman said that she wanted to buy Erhei, but as soon as she appeared, her eyes did not fall on Erhei's body, but kept staring at him.
Staring at him as if he was looking at some delicious food, it sent chills down his spine.
Xue Nianci turned around and left.
The wheels are pressed with snow, leaving marks everywhere.
Xue Nianci stopped at the entrance of the corridor and glanced back at the busy young man.
Snowmen stand in the middle of the courtyard.
Crystal white.
There are Chen Baxian, Aunt Zhang, Zhang Baigui, Hua Qingyun, Xue Yuxin, and Dahei...... Of course, there is also him Xue Nianci.
But there is no winter fall.
The boy in the yard was still busy.
Maybe the next snowman will be him, maybe not.
......
Time always passes in a shaky way.
The snow melted and fell again.
The snow fell, and it melted.
Every snowflake is not alike, and every snowflake is not long-lasting.
It's almost the Chinese New Year.
There are people in Luoyang City, and some people are leaving.
Some are born, some are dead.
But in the end, there are more people coming than going.
Those who are born are more than those who die.
Every household in Luoyang City is cleaning their houses, ready to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.
Approaching the end of the year, Dongluo has been very busy these days, busy following Aunt Zhang around to buy New Year's goods. Like a little ant that never knows how tired it is, it keeps going back and forth between the major commercial centers and Zhangfu.
Even if there are mustard seeds, she can't resist Aunt Zhang's left hand holding the cat, the right hand holding the black ball, like a veteran of the shopping mall, male entanglement, high-spirited walking in the major streets of Luoyang City, see this, buy. See that, buy.
Dongluo persuaded Aunt Zhang many times that it is not easy for Uncle Zhang to make some money all year round, so he should save some flowers, and don't spend all his pitiful savings while Uncle Zhang is far away.
But Aunt Zhang said that I don't spend the money he earns, so do I have to leave it for him to raise other women outside!
Dongluo's face stiffened, so he had to say that Zhang Baigui was already a big man, and it was time to start a family. You see that he looks so dark, if you don't give him more wives. In the future, I may not even be able to afford to marry a daughter-in-law.
may think that Dongluo has a point, Aunt Zhang thought about it and went home after thinking about it, and stopped buying anything.
I thought that Aunt Zhang might stop for a while, but not long after she got home, Dongluo was called by Aunt Zhang to go shopping spree.
Aunt Zhang said that if he kept this money for him, he didn't know if he would spend it on that woman in the future! It was better to spend it now, so as not to die in the future and leave Zhang Baigui's little rabbit cub cheaper for other women.
Now it's bitter, like a little ant, the winter falls.
Every time I come back from sending something, I can see Xue Nianci's smiling face, not in front of the window smiling at a tree and plum blossoms, chanting a few words.
It is to sit by the small lake and feed the fish. Watch a large school of fish make a splash of joy.
Or make a pot of tea, burn a pot of sandalwood, sit in the bamboo forest, and play a song for a group of maids in Zhang's mansion, looking intoxicated and calm.
It is itchy to see the roots of the winter teeth.
Fortunately, whether time is difficult or easy, it will pass after all.
Before you know it, it's already the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Dongluo, who thought he could rest and rest, was taken out of the warm quilt by Aunt Zhang early in the morning.
Sticking couplets is an indispensable procedure for every household during the Chinese New Year.
Dongluo's task today is to paste couplets.
The old housekeeper of Zhang's Mansion smiled and carried a bucket of paste, following behind the two teenagers.
Many times, Dongluo was afraid that this old housekeeper would fall down accidentally, so he deliberately slowed down.
When pasting the couplet, the old housekeeper and Xue Nianci said that the paste was crooked, and the other said no, which made Dongluo a little scrambling.
When eating Chinese New Year's Eve, Aunt Zhang, who made a sumptuous meal, did not forget to give them two a big red envelope, of course, and the three beasts, but it was first handed over to Dongluo for temporary preservation, and Dongluo took it without saying a word, and her face smiled like a flower.
Xue Nianci accepted it very reservedly, her face full of happiness.
In the evening, under the table lay a small stove with enough charcoal, and the two and three beasts sat around the fire, all dressed in new clothes.
There were a lot of food and pastries on the table, and Xue Nianci had a book in front of her.
Tonight, they will keep the New Year.
Year after year, it's been the same. It used to be two people, then it became one, and now it's two again.
A long, long time ago, he didn't have that much of a sense of these festivals, but now he realizes that it is these festivals that implicate many, many things.
For example, homesickness and nostalgia......
Even if the festival is the same festival, as long as people are different people, the love is not the same love.
It's like looking at the same bright moon in the sky, some people think of their hometown, some people think of their relatives, and some people only have coldness left.
On the prairie in Mobei, there is a horse galloping.
After running for a long, long time, the horses are tired, and the people are tired.
Finally stopped.
A figure quietly appeared behind him, "Young Master, do you miss the master and the lady?"
Immediately, the resolute-faced young man nodded, and when he looked away, there was nothing but a place of miscanthus grass swaying gently in the breeze.
The young man looked at the endless prairie and said loudly: "Lao Zhang, one day, I will take you from this grassland, all the way to the north, all the way to the northernmost part of the Shenzhou Continent. Let everyone in this extreme north no longer suffer from war, and let everyone in this far north land be the same as the people in Luoyang City, and live a happy good year. ”
The festival just makes the happy happier and the sad sadder.
This seems to be the case.
Compared with the jubilant Luoyang City, the north of the war every year has a little bit of festival joy at all.
As far as the eye can see, there are a few lights and a few stars on this prairie.
Lao Zhang looked at the young man standing on horseback and nodded silently.
There seems to be something more on these immature shoulders.
On one side is the family and the country, and on the other side is the people of Li.
He picked it all, and I believe he can pick it too.
This time it is not for a certain teenager, but simply for this sparsely lit prairie, in order to make this prairie a little more popular and happy.
Let everyone go home, let everyone have a home.
Lao Zhang, who bowed his back slightly, slowly straightened his back, and there was a snapping sound, like a firecracker.
Lao Zhang's eyes shone brightly and said, "Okay." ”
The first rays of dawn appeared on heaven and earth.
Dongluo got up lightly, went to open the door, and looked up to the east.
Suddenly, he couldn't help coughing lightly, and then Dongluo opened his mouth and spit out, and he spit out a piece of snow-white ice.
The ice hit the ground and froze another large area.
Under the reflection of the morning glow, there are layers of halo flashing, and the brilliance is dazzling.
Dongluo was stunned for a long time, and finally spoke: "What are you doing! It's the New Year, do you want to run out to take a breath? Why, you Heavenly Dao Seeds also pay attention to the New Year's Festival." ”
