Chapter 33: The Mysterious Marriage Festival
"Who are you?" Tang Rao wondered.
"Miss Tang, under Shangguan Jin." Shangguan Jin's tone contained a hint of tension.
Shangguan Jin? Shouldn't he be with the heroine Lin Yue'er at this time, why did he suddenly appear here? Could it be that the plot is about to collapse, Tang Rao suddenly rose with a faint look of worry, his biggest reliance is to know the development of the plot, if the plot collapses completely, then he will have no advantage, and what will happen in the future will no longer be within his prediction. In this way, he lost his biggest dependence, but in exchange for the glimmer of vitality in his future, and now he can only plan early while the plot has not completely collapsed. Although there were hundreds of turns in his heart, he still had doubts on his face: "You are Shangguan Jin, the first merry son rumored in the rivers and lakes?" How did you end up here? ”
The first merry boy? Shangguan Jin said interestingly: "Miss Tang has won the award, and that is just everyone's love." ”
Looking at Shangguan Jin's peach blossom eyes that seemed to be smiling, pervert! Tang Rao instantly became vigilant.
"Rao'er, are you ready to eat?" Nangong Xue glanced at Shangguan Jin and said lightly.
"Alright, let's go." Tang Rao immediately answered, and then got up and prepared to leave with Nangong Jingxue.
"There is a way to meet thousands of miles away, and it is also fate to meet today, I don't know if the city lord of Nangong can enjoy his face and have a drink with him." Shangguan Jin said with a smile.
"Not necessarily." Nangong Jingxue said coldly and walked out first.
Tang Rao glanced at Shangguan Jin suspiciously, and hurriedly followed.
Looking at the few people who left in a hurry, Shangguan Jin showed an interesting look: "We will meet again." ”
The shopkeeper looked at Shangguan Jin and kept staring at the direction of Nangong Jingxue's departure, and couldn't help but remind: "Shangguan Shaobao Lord, don't look at it anymore, Nangong City Lord has already gone away." ”
"I heard that the lord of Nangong City has always had a cold temperament, and when I saw it today, it was really the case." Shangguan Jin shook the folding fan lightly and said with a smile.
"Who said it wasn't, but the city lord of Nangong was really kind, and he wasn't angry when he was slandered like that." The shopkeeper said in admiration.
"The city lord of Nangong is not angry, but the 'white-clothed devil' may not be able to say." Shangguan Jin said faintly.
"This, hey~~~" The shopkeeper thought about it and sighed helplessly.
As soon as Tang Rao and the others left the inn, they drove away. The more Tang Rao thought about it, the more wrong it became, where did the plot go wrong, and Shangguan Jin, who was supposed to be with the heroine Lin Yue'er, appeared here, and looking at Nangong Jingxue with a solemn face, it was inconvenient for him to ask, Luo Yiruo only looked at the anxious Tang Rao and was puzzled.
If you hold it like this, you will definitely hold back your internal injuries. Suddenly remembering the things that everyone in the inn was talking about, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother, has something happened in the Eastern Regions?" Why do they all say it's not from Windwood? And is this what we're going to the Eastern Regions to deal with? ”
Nangong Jingxue looked at Tang Rao and said softly: "Rao'er doesn't have to worry about this matter, just leave it to my brother to deal with, Rao'er just needs to be happy every day." ”
"Brother, I've grown up, I'm not a child anymore, I can help." Tang Rao did not follow the way.
"Yes, Rao'er has grown up, and she will be sixteen in a few months, and she can get married." Nangong said faintly.
"At that time, if Yiruo can also drink Dao Rao'er's happy wine, I don't know who has this blessing?" Luo Yiruo quipped.
"Brother, Yiruo, now you're talking about the affairs of the Eastern Regions, you, why are you all involved in me." Tang Rao said angrily.
"Rao'er, my brother has already arranged these things, and this time I went out just for fun." Nangong said lightly.
"Really, you didn't lie to me?" Tang Rao was suspicious: "Then tell me, why are you in such a hurry this time?" ”
"Of course, it's to rush to Shaxi Town to participate in the annual 'Marriage Festival'." Luo Yiruo interjected.
Seeing Nangong Xue glanced at him coldly, Luo Yiruo was shocked, and immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "If you lose your words, please ask the son to punish him." ”
"Brother, don't bully Yiruo." Tang Rao immediately maintained.
I didn't say anything. What's the hurry? Nangong said coldly.
"If you get up quickly, my brother is not so terrible, don't look at his often cold face, in fact, his heart is soft, every time I ask him, no matter what, he will immediately agree." Tang Rao stretched out her hand and knelt on the ground, Luo Yiruo comforted.
Looking at Nangong Jingxue with an undeniable face, Luo Yiruo smiled bitterly. Silly, I'm not you.
"By the way, you haven't told me what the marriage festival is?" Tang Rao was puzzled.
"The Marriage Festival is held once a year and only on the evening of the 10th day of the seventh month of the year every year." Luo Yiruo explained carefully: "The whole town is brightly lit that night, and men and women of the right age who have not yet married will travel with masks on their faces, and if they meet the opposite sex with the same mask as themselves, it means that the two are a godsend, as long as the parties do not object, they can become husband and wife." ”
"What if the parents and families on both sides are against it?" Tang Rao asked.
"No, because of God-given marriage, the family will only bless." Looking at Tang Rao, who was full of doubts, Luo Yiruo continued: "If you really forcibly break up without the wishes of the parties, it will bring bad luck to the family." ”
"Really?" Tang Rao said suspiciously.
"Naturally, it is true, in recent decades, there have also been several incidents of family opposition and forced separation, and as a result, all of them have been defeated, and none of them have been spared." Nangong was shocked by Nangong Xue, who answered the phone with an indifferent face.
"Then if two people who love each other but are not blessed, can they use this marriage festival to accomplish good things?" Tang Rao suddenly said with a look of surprise.
"It's completely impossible." Nangong said categorically.
Luo Yiruo then explained: "This is also a great miracle in the rivers and lakes, because this mask can only be seen by men and women who participate in the marriage festival, while those who do not participate see the same pure white mask." ”
"It's amazing!" Tang Rao exclaimed.
"The origin of the marriage festival can no longer be investigated, everyone only knows that in the marriage festival, as long as the heart is sincere, they will find their beloved. Therefore, this day is also the holiest day of the year in Shaxi Town. Luo Yiruo explained with a faint smile.
"Then if outsiders participate in this marriage festival, will they also find their beloved?" Tang Rao asked.
"What, Rao'er wants to get married?" Luo Yiruo quipped.
Tang Rao immediately rolled her eyes and said, "I'm just asking." Do you know? ”
"I really don't know." Luo Yiruo shook his head.
"Brother, do you know?"
"Rao'er wants to know, don't you know if you try it yourself?" Nangong said lightly.
"Just try, what's there to be afraid of, if I really run into it, it's a big deal that I don't agree."
Looking at Tang Rao, who was unconvinced, Luo Yiruo smiled faintly.
