Chapter 485 Coming and Going Ethereal 54
Everything seems to be calm and unwavering, but in fact there are undercurrents. Whether it is between the twelve demon kings, or the Great Spirit Clan, or the two demon clans, all of them have ghosts in their hearts, listening to the wind, frost, rain and snow, and waiting for swords and guns. This scene was a sign before the Great War.
But for Zhang Xiaobei, today is his great joy, he doesn't want to care about anything, he just wants to follow his plan and marry Su Qianxun in the church, and then leave the Ten Thousand Demon City. then went to the ghost capital to find Mrs. Meng, and then returned to Zhuxian Town to open his restaurant, open his gambling house, and be his richest man in Zhuxian Town, that's all; Even the matter of promising the ghost emperor Chen Jiu and Wang Yigua was left behind by him at this time, and in his heart, he only pretended to be the beauty of everything, especially the big wedding between him and Su Qianxun.
However, according to the customs of the demon world, the matter of worshipping and marrying can only be held after sunset. Because the newlyweds have a short night, when the white-headed beauty falls asleep, that is to say, after worshipping the church, she can be sent directly to the cave room. Before that, what Zhang Xiaobei had to do was to receive and greet the guests who came to congratulate the wedding, and he had to eat and drink with him from morning until dusk and sunset.
Therefore, after greeting Zu Long, Zhang Xiaobei went out of the Demon Emperor Palace, and the high priest Qin Wuming, as well as a group of servants and maids, were waiting outside him, ready to welcome the guests who came to attend the wedding banquet.
As far as the eye can see, the entire Demon Emperor Palace is full of colors, red carpet lanterns, phoenix tail candles, gongs, drums, firecrackers, pianos, flutes, and beards, inside and out, from the Demon Palace to all corners of the Demon City, it is very lively.
Soon, people came one after another, the first one, the second of the twelve demon kings, Yingyu. Zhang Xiaobei didn't have a good impression of this person, because yesterday the Demon Emperor Palace made Zhang Xiaobei the most difficult, and he was the fish. However, one thing is one thing, no matter how much Zhang Xiaobei doesn't like it, he can only smile and greet him respectfully.
However, the congratulatory gift given to Zhang Xiaobei by this Yingyu is more rare, not a rare treasure, nor a gold and silver vessel, but an egg, a very, very ...... The egg is very, very big, taller than the two Zhang Xiaobei stacks standing together, and the three of them have to hold it in a circle before they can barely surround the egg.
Among them, the most bizarre and incredible thing is that the egg is actually black, and it is not ordinary black, just like the pot of ash is smeared on it, black to shiny. When he came, the egg was carried by four big fish with wings, and Zhang Xiaobei was very dumbfounded by this scene.
Out of curiosity, Zhang Xiaobei also asked Yingyu what the origin of this egg was, but Yingyu couldn't explain why, only said that this egg was met by chance on the way to Ten Thousand Demon City, and there was nothing useful for the rest.
After the ceremony, the high priest Qin Wuming wanted to let the egg be carried down, but at this time, Zhang Xiaobei stopped it with a smile, and then took out his Qiankun bag Tianzang, shouted "Receive", and put this strange egg in it.
Immediately afterwards was the Gu Carving in the Twelve Paths Demon King...... Recruiting ...... Scourge ...... Wait a minute. The congratulatory gifts given by these demon kings are different from those given by Yingyu, they are all rare treasures. And one is more precious than the other, as if it is secretly compared. However, this made Zhang Xiaobei very happy, and all of them were collected into Tianzang.
However, among them, the most joyful gift for Zhang Xiaobei was the night pearl given to him by Bai Ze. Because this night pearl is not only bigger than a fist, but more importantly, this night pearl is not just a single one, but a box, a whole big box. When Bai Ze opened it at that time, everyone who saw it was amazed, and even Qin Wusheng, the high priest who had always been moody, couldn't help but look at it twice.
But Zhang Xiaobei was also clever, for fear that such a treasure would be snatched by others, so before everyone could see enough, Zhang Xiaobei didn't say a word, took out Tianzang and received it as before, and then continued to smile and greet the next person who came to congratulate him.
"Brother Xiaobei, congratulations!"
"Brother Liuyang!"
When he heard the joy, he saw that it was the ghost dance and his entourage that were coming. Zhang Xiaobei saw it, and immediately took the initiative to come forward and salute him, after all, he had a good impression of the ghost dance Liuyang. And Zhang Xiaobei learned that Ghost Dance Liuyang was three years older than him, so he affectionately called him big brother.
"Brother Xiaobei, when we met a few days ago, you and I said that we would not return home if we were not drunk. How about taking this opportunity to have a good drink today? Ghost Dance Liuyang smiled, without any highness shelf, standing with Zhang Xiaobei was like a friend for many years.
"Definitely, definitely!" Zhang Xiaobei was naturally happy and extremely happy, so he said: "Brother Liuyang, please come in, sit inside first, and I will come to greet everyone when I am busy." ”
"Wait Brother Xiaobei, today is your wedding day, how can I come empty-handed?" As soon as Ghost Dance Liuyang finished speaking, Shu Wu handed him a palm-sized box, and then Ghost Dance Liuyang handed it to Zhang Xiaobei.
"I said Brother Liuyang, it's good for people to come, what kind of gifts do you bring? You say you, really! Zhang Xiaobei said so, but his eyes were glowing when he looked at this box, and while opening it, he asked, "Brother Liuyang, what is in this box?" ”
"Immortal Pill!"
"Immortal Pill?"
With doubts, Zhang Xiaobei opened the box and saw that there were two brown pills inside, not very big, but faintly shining, making it look very mysterious.
"Brother Liuyang, can you really live forever after taking this pill?" Zhang Xiaobei looked at the two pills in the box and was very suspicious.
"Hahaha...... Brother Xiaobei, this Immortal Pill was originally refined by an ancient technique of my Great Spirit Clan, but it is a pity that this ancient technique has now been lost, and these two Immortal Pills have also been preserved from a long time ago, and it can even be said that among my Great Spirit Clan, there are only the last two. "Ghost Dance Liuyang knew that Zhang Xiaobei was very sensitive to all things about cultivating immortals, so he explained it very clearly and in detail, for fear that Zhang Xiaobei would misunderstand. After a pause, he continued: "As for Brother Xiaobei's question about whether he can live forever after taking this pill, I think...... It's Brother Xiaobei, you misinterpreted its meaning. ”
"Oh? Please also ask Brother Liuyang to say. ”
"This elixir does have the effect of prolonging life, for the beings of the four realms of my earthly realm, or the two realms of immortals and Buddhas in the heavenly realm, this elixir can prolong life for three hundred years. But for mortals like the Xiaobei brothers, it can extend their life for at least 10,000 years. ”
"What? One...... One...... One...... 10,000 years? ”
"Not bad! At least 10,000 years! ”
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaobei was stunned for a while, and whispered in his heart: "What are the townspeople of Zhuxian Town cultivating immortals for?" Isn't it just for immortality? But the result? Who's done it? Who will have eternal life again? And what about me Zhang Xiaobei? Wouldn't you be able to live for 10,000 years now? Hahaha...... If I knew how this Immortal Pill was refined, then if I refined a few thousand pieces and sold them, then ...... Wouldn't that make a fortune? Hahaha......'
"Brother Liuyang, can I discuss something with you?" Zhang Xiaobei smiled ill-willedly.
"What's the matter?"
"Brother Liuyang, can you tell me the recipe for this elixir?" Zhang Xiaobei is full of expectations.
"Brother Xiaobei, I won't talk about it just now, this Immortal Pill is the ancient art refining of my Great Spirit Clan, and now this ancient art has been lost, so ......" Ghost Dance Liuyang didn't finish his words, but the listener already understood.
"Alas! It's a pity! It's all money, but I didn't expect it to be gone! Alas! Zhang Xiaobei's face was instantly lost, he sighed and shook his head, and the people next to him were confused.
"Brother Xiaobei, forgive me one more word!" Ghost Dance Liuyang suddenly said: "These two elixirs are not easy to come by, Brother Xiaobei, although you don't like to cultivate immortal alchemy, but this elixir is also called the Tribulation Pill, as long as you take one of these pills during the tribulation, you can not only ensure the success of the Tribulation, but also greatly increase your cultivation." So Brother Xiaobei, remember to use it with caution! ”
"Thank you, Brother Liuyang, I remembered!"
Zhang Xiaobei didn't care about Ghost Dance Liuyang's words at all, after all, he didn't want to cultivate immortal alchemy at all. It was the ghost dance Liuyang, and when he watched Zhang Xiaobei throw these two immortal pills into Tianzang at will, he was actually very distressed in his heart.
Because after the great change in the Great Spirit Clan, all the Spirit Clan people fled for their lives, and they didn't have time to bring any treasures out. But it happened to coincide with the wedding of Zhang Xiaobei and Su Qianxun, and the things given should not be too cold, so after some careful consideration, it was decided to send this elixir. Originally, these two elixirs were specially prepared by Ghost Dance Dragon Yin for Ghost Dance Liuyang and Ghost Dance Tassels, but now, they have all entered Zhang Xiaobei Tianzang.
However, when he thought about Zhang Xiaobei and Su Qianxun's help to the Great Spirit Clan, Ghost Dance Liuyang felt a lot better, so he finished talking to Zhang Xiaobei and walked into the Demon Emperor Palace.
The next person who came to attend the wedding banquet was Dangkang, who helped Zhang Xiaobei arch seven grasses in Wanluo Mountain all night. Because if you cut it with a knife, the speed is too slow, and it is not as fast as directly turning into a primordial body and using an arch.
So when Kang came, his eyes were wide open and closed, and he walked a little staggeringly, and he even had to be supported by the person next to him. Zhang Xiaobei saw that even if he stepped forward to thank him, he didn't even ask about the congratulatory gift given to him by Dangkang, so he respectfully helped him into the Demon Emperor Hall and sat down. Seeing that the rest of the crowd was very puzzled, one of them thought in their hearts: 'What is the relationship between Dangkang and this kid?' Why is this kid so respectful? ’
They have such thoughts because when they came, although Zhang Xiaobei greeted them with a smile, what entered Zhang Xiaobei's eyes was all the treasures and gifts they brought. But now, Zhang Xiaobei is uncharacteristically respectful to Dang Kang, so this is something they can't figure out.
However, it was accompanied by a lot of discussions, and soon, all those who should have come came, and Zhang Xiaobei also entered the Demon Emperor Hall with the high priest Qin Wuming and sat down. Unlike before, when Zhang Xiaobei first came to the Demon Emperor Palace, he sat at the end, but now he is sitting at the front, after all, he is the home field today.
~~~
"Ladies and gentlemen, today is the big wedding banquet of the little girl Chihiro and Zhang Xiaobei, the emperor of the demon world, so we won't talk about any official or private affairs today, everything is based on interest." Zu Long waved his hand, and with the order of the attendant at the door, the dancing girl entered and danced. However, he said: "There is wine and food in front of you, you don't need to be polite, please feel free." ”
When he heard Zu Long's words, although everyone present greeted each other with smiling faces, they actually tensed up one by one. Because they all knew that there might be a problem with the food in front of them, so no one dared to move it easily, and in the same way, they all used the method of stealing beams and changing the beams for the pillars, and exchanged the banquet wine on the table for the wine they brought.
For this scene, Zu Long naturally saw it in his eyes, but he still had to pretend to be confused, in order to probe the reactions of the people present in this way, to see who was stupid and who was smart? Who's going to show their feet? Who will be a spy sent by the demons and demons? It can be said that there is an undercurrent.
At the beginning, everyone present could endure it, they could only drink alcohol and not eat food, but Zu Long moved his mouth to eat, and everyone thought that Zu Long was deliberately tempting, so they all endured it again, and no one dared to touch the food in front of him easily.
But as the hours passed, and by the time it was time for lunch, everyone gradually began to lose their drinks, and their stomachs began to get hungry. Everyone wants to leave and eat, but ...... But they can't go, they can't eat, they can only hold back, endure it, and are afraid that they will be poisoned if they make a slight mistake.
And at this time, in the huge Demon Emperor Palace, an extremely discordant voice appeared, saying, "What's wrong with you? Why do you only drink alcohol and don't eat food? Let me tell you, this phoenix liver is tender! And this money chicken tower, this and this...... Ginseng wolfberry sheep's head, sliced skin hanging duck or something, I tell you, these are delicious, if you don't eat them again, then they will be cold later! ”
The person who spoke didn't know anything, only Zhang Xiaobei, who was sitting on the side eating and drinking. If it weren't for the red wedding dress he was wearing, he wouldn't look like a groom official at all, but more like a hungry ghost who couldn't get enough to eat.
However, at this time, everyone present thought that Zu Long had deliberately arranged this scene. Therefore, no one dared to open their mouths to eat, not only did they have to endure it, but they also had to pretend that they didn't care about anything and were happy.
Among them, Ghost Dance Liuyang and his entourage are good, they know that there is a feast in this feast, so they have eaten a lot before coming, so they can still starve and resist.
As for Dangkang, he was too sleepy after a tired night, so when he came in, he found a remote and inconspicuous seat to sit. Then he pretended to be too drunk, fell asleep on the table, and had no idea what was going on around him.
Only those demon kings, although they had already seen through everything in advance, but because of their high pride, they had no preparation before coming. Now, the stomach is cold under the wine, and they are so hungry that they don't say anything about their chests and backs, especially when they see all kinds of delicacies in front of them but can't eat them, and when they hear the endless temptation from Zhang Xiaobei, they can't wait to rush forward to block Zhang Xiaobei's mouth, and then grab the food in front of him to eat.
"You see, this is the braised pork in the legend of our mortal world, the entrance is silky and not greasy, and it has a sugar fragrance, which is extremely delicious! This is what I, Zhang Xiaobei, specially asked someone to do, what? Don't you want to taste it? ”
Hearing Zhang Xiaobei's words, everyone present couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, but still no one dared to taste it easily......
