Chapter 63: The Sixty-Third Step of the Minister
After Grandpa Hu received the news from Hu Li, he sat on the top of the mountain vicissitudes and sighed against the cold wind. The little fox who grew up since childhood is about to get married, bah, bah, there is going to be a Taoist couple, and he is left with an old man in the Far North Mountain!
Ay......
The little goblins on the Far North Mountain are simply scared and crying, the boss has not been normal recently, and the entire Far North Mountain has suffered!
However, after the vicissitudes of life, Grandpa Hu began to go back to his cave to pick up the things that could be used as congratulatory gifts for Hu Li, and finally sorted out a big bag full of Qiankun. This big Qiankun bag is simply all-inclusive, there are all kinds of rare treasures left by the previous fox demon fairies, as well as this kind of spirit grass spirit pill spirit weapon collected by Grandpa Hu himself, and some strange little things.
After Grandpa Hu packed it, he sent a message to the two apprentices, not to mention what kind of chickens and dogs jumped after Xiong Ming and Lang Jun received the message, Grandpa Hu had already driven the clouds to the imperial city quickly.
Although His Majesty gave the marriage and sent the Internal Affairs Office to help Xiao Qiao and Hu Li handle all the matters of the wedding, the wedding was not ready for a while. Although it is not as troublesome to organize a wedding according to the rules of the prince as the emperor's wedding, it is not as simple as that, and the Internal Affairs Office is busy like a dog again!
Therefore, when Grandpa Hu arrived in the imperial city with a bag full of dowry (dowry), the wedding he expected had not yet begun.
"So, you're going to get married?" After Grandpa Hu heard Xiao Qiao and Hu Li's plans, he asked in a deep voice.
"Well, grandpa, you can help us preside over the ceremony of the Taoist couple." Hu Li nodded, looking at Grandpa Hu with bright eyes, Grandpa Hu glanced at Hu Li, and turned to look at Xiao Qiao.
"What Xiao Li said is exactly what I meant, we hope to be able to form a Taoist couple under the witness of Heavenly Dao. It's just that we still have a lot of ambiguity about the Taoist ceremony, and we need grandpa's help. Xiao Qiao directly changed his words from Grandpa Hu to Grandpa, Grandpa Hu didn't have time to care about these little things at this time, he looked at the two of them who were determined, and suddenly sighed, "Do you know what it means to become a Taoist couple?" ”
Xiao Qiao and Hu Li glanced at each other and looked at Grandpa Hu with some confusion.
Grandpa Hu stood up, walked to the window, looked at the distant sky, and said in a low voice: "After forming a Taoist couple, you will have no room to regret it." "Of course, there are many people who separate after forming a Taoist couple, and Grandpa Hu will not say anything about this.
Xiao Qiao took Hu Li's hand, squeezed his palm with a smile, and smiled at Grandpa Hu who was standing by the window: "It's so good." ”
Grandpa Hu did not answer, but looked at the distant sky. When the Nine-Tails had not yet left this realm, there had been many people who had combined with humans, but very few of them could really go to the end.
Although the Nine-Tails clan is not like the wolf clan, the dead-eyed guardian is a lifetime, and the Taoist companion is like losing his soul when he leaves, but there are many people who are infatuated, otherwise there will be no fox demons who are crazy about love in the book.
He didn't want Hu Li to end up like those clansmen who had various situations after being hurt by love, but looking at Xiao Qiao's attitude towards Hu Li, he couldn't say that Xiao Qiao was not sincere against his will.
"If you are really sincere, accept the unique Taoist ritual of the Nine-Tails Clan." Grandpa Hu finally agreed awkwardly, but left a way back for Hu Li. Even if Hu Li is a demon immortal, he can't escape the fact that he is not the same kind as Xiao Qiao, if the red line is really broken one day, it will not make Hu Li the injured party.
"The Nine-Tails Clan's unique Taoist ritual?" Hu Li looked at Grandpa Hu inexplicably, "Is there still this?" ”
Grandpa Hu hated that iron could not be made of steel, and glanced at Hu Li in his heart, and began to talk serious nonsense. Of course, it's not complete nonsense, but a little innocuous addition to the authentic Taoist ceremony.
For example, the Taoist couple ceremony that should have been completed after the two of them signed a Taoist couple contract was added by Grandpa Hu to a unique bond contract of the Nine-Tails clan led by Hu Li.
The Bond Contract does not cause any harm to both parties, and is not even as binding as the Companion Contract, but the Bond Contract can seal the dominant party's memories of the other party when one party betrays.
Naturally, the Taoist contract can no longer be held in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is even more impossible for the Xiao Mansion to be held away from the palace, and finally Xiao Qiao and Hu Li chose the location in the Hanshan Pavilion.
After this period of time, half of Hanshan Pavilion has moved to a small island in the South China Sea, so it seems a little empty, but it is just right for Xiao Qiao and Hu Li's marriage ceremony.
"A thousand years ago, the contract was to invite many relatives and friends to observe the ceremony, and there would be a respected elder in the clan to preside over the ceremony, and the banquet alone could last for a month. It's a pity ......" Grandpa Hu sighed, getting old and old, always remembering the past.
"But we don't know the elders, so it's good for grandpa to preside over it." Hu Li was wearing a red dress specially prepared by Grandpa Hu, and the dress was embroidered with Ji Wenfu prayers, which made Hu Li's facial features bright and exquisite.
Xiao Qiao nodded, echoing Hu Li's words, he was also wearing a red dress, the only difference was that the piping of the dress was black, while the piping of Hu Li's dress was golden.
Even Xiong Ming and Lang Jun, who came over in a hurry, nodded and pulled Grandpa Hu out of his memories, Grandpa Hu snorted, looked at Xiao Qiao and Hu Li, who were already wearing dresses, and raised his chin, "Since you're ready, let's start." ”
Xiao Qiao stood on the right side of Grandpa Hu, and his heart suddenly beat violently with Grandpa Hu's words. At that time, his wife was chosen for him by Xiao's mother, even if the woman did not meet his wishes, but for Xiao's mother, he still married the woman into the Xiao family and respected her.
But I have never had a heart-pounding feeling, I have never realized the joy of falling in love with Xiaoli, and I have never had the same tension as a hairy boy now.
The corners of Xiao Qi'ao's mouth turned up, his usual deep eyes were full of smiles, and he looked intently at Hu Li's delicate and bright facial features.
"Today, Hu Li, a member of the Nine-tails clan, and Xiao Qi, a cultivator in the world, are willing to become Taoist couples and jointly prove the Great Dao." Grandpa Hu picked up a jade bowl placed on the stone platform in front of him, and the jade bowl contained a rare spiritual liquid, "Drip the blood of each of their hearts in it." ”
Xiao Qiao and Hu Li glanced at each other, nodded, cut their fingertips, and a drop of blood from their hearts dripped into the spiritual fluid. The originally cool and thorough spiritual liquid was instantly dyed red, and as the blood of the two dripped in, Grandpa Hu looked at the two, "Let's start!" ”
"Hmm." Hu Li nodded, Xiao Qiao smiled and held Hu Li's hand, and the two of them spoke at the same time, "God is the proof, today Xiao Qiao/Hu Li is willing to marry Hu Li/Xiao Qiao, support each other, and prove the road together." ”
As their words fell, the blood in the jade bowl began to merge, and gradually the red in the spiritual fluid began to deepen, and a small pillar of gold with red appeared in the originally clear sky, and the pillar of light fell from the sky and fell into the jade bowl.
The blood of the heart that was originally fused suddenly divided into two drops, and at the same time, they each poured into the eyebrows of the two, and an invisible bond appeared in the hearts of the two. They could even feel the joy and surprise in each other's hearts, Xiao Qiao opened his eyes and smiled lightly, so that no one could leave anyone!
The small pillar of light began to gradually thicken, enveloping the two of them, and the more dazzling pillar of light made Xiong Ming and Lang Jun, who were watching the ceremony, suddenly take a step back. Even the disciples in the Hanshan Pavilion who were forbidden to go to the back mountain looked at the pillar of light that reached the sky in surprise, not to mention the Imperial City and the nearby towns that could be seen, some of them were already kneeling on the ground and shouting miracles.
And the two people shrouded in the pillar of light held each other's hands, listened to the voice that belonged to the Heavenly Dao in their ears, and laughed at the same time.
"Brother Xiao, we seem to have earned it!" Hu Li's eyes were shining, full of surprise overflowed from his eyes, and he was so excited that he almost couldn't suppress his desire to jump.
Xiao Qiao nodded and touched Hu Li's hair. The silky hair had turned back to snow when it was shrouded in a pillar of light, and the charm of the nine-tailed fox appeared on Hu Li's body for the first time, even though his ruby-like eyes were still full of innocence, but it added a unique contradictory charm that belonged to Hu Li.
The demon is also simple, contradictory and attractive.
"What's wrong?" The pillar of light gradually disappeared, and Grandpa Hu looked at the two of them suspiciously, and asked worriedly.
"It's okay, grandpa, Brother Xiao and I seem to have earned it!" Hu Li excitedly shared with Grandpa Hu the gift from the Heavenly Dao just now, "Brother Xiao and I are the first couple to form a Taoist couple in thousands of years after the mainland's spiritual energy failed, so the Heavenly Dao gave us a congratulatory gift!" ”
"Congratulatory gifts?!" Now it's not just Grandpa Hu, Xiong Ming and Lang Jun all looked at them in surprise, the congratulatory gift from the Heavenly Dao, this is really ...... Gone shit luck!
"Yes, it's a congratulatory gift that belongs only to me and Xiaoli." The corners of Xiao Qiao's eyes and eyebrows were full of pride that could not be concealed, and this kind of expression had never appeared on Xiao Qiao's face.
"What kind of gift?" Lang Jun was the most anxious, Xiao Qiao looked at Hu Li, and slightly lowered his head to meet Hu Li's forehead, "Xiaoli and I will never be separated." ”
"Huh?" Lang Jun didn't know why, but Grandpa Hu looked at them thoughtfully, and asked after half a sound, "What did Heavenly Dao give you?" ”
"A bond, a bond that belongs only to me and Xiaoli, whether we are reincarnated or not, we can always be together." Xiao Qiao couldn't help but laugh out loud, and he did.
"Well, no matter what happens to Brother Xiao and I, we will always be able to find each other in the future." Hu Li nodded, happily hugging Xiao Qiao's arm, his ruby eyes full of joy, "Moreover, my cultivation with Brother Xiao will get twice the result with half the effort!" ”
Oh big head...... Grandpa Hu pursed his lips, which means that no matter what, they can't be separated!
"Grandpa, let's continue, isn't the Taoist ceremony not over yet?" Xiao Qiao hugged Hu Li's waist and said with a smile.
He didn't know that Grandpa Hu said that the Taoist couple ceremony that was different from ordinary people's contract had Grandpa Hu's selfishness in it? No, he knows, but if this can reassure Grandpa Hu, he doesn't care. However, now that there is the guarantee of the Heavenly Dao, that bond contract seems a little redundant.
"Worship the ancestors!" Grandpa Hu waved his hand and motioned for them to kneel, Xiong Ming and Lang Jun stood in front of the two of them with a picture, the picture was a real nine-tailed fox, "Since the Heavenly Dao has given you a gift, then the contract I said before is not necessary, so it will be fine!" ”
Xiao Qiao hugged the excited Hu Li, full of smiles!
