Chapter 8: Love and Hatred (7)
The gongs and drums in front of Zhuge Village were noisy, and the crowd was crowded, and the team of the Sima family to welcome relatives relied on the skills of Paya and Singh to sing and dance. Looking at Sima Yingxuan and Zhuge Blade Heart who were smiling evilly on the city wall, Sima Xuanhuang and Dao Yan looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
"I don't know what the hell they're up to." Singh muttered.
"Brother Yun, do you think the road ahead is safe?" Sima Xuanhuang asked with a frown.
"It's obviously not safe, but I'm not Singh good at trapping." Dao Yan shook his head and said with a smile.
"Why am I again?" Singh said with a bitter face.
"Who made you drink too much last night and brag. When you sang to those young women just now, didn't you sing very happily? Now the opportunity to show your face has come, and you don't go, who goes. Paya teased Singh angrily.
Singh could only reluctantly leave the group and cautiously walked towards the gate.
Since today was the day of great joy for Sima Xuanhuang and Zhuge Yixin, and the 'eagle claw' was not with him, Singh wanted to find a branch or stick to help him explore the way, so he walked to the big tree by the gate of the village. After carefully observing and confirming that the tree was safe, Singh reached out to break a branch, but heard a scream from Paya behind him. Singh immediately flipped on the spot, only to see a dark, shiny, erect hair, fangs and claws, and extremely large spider slipping from behind. Singh was so frightened that he slipped under his feet, and sat on the ground with his buttocks, but he screamed as if he had been stabbed by something, and immediately jumped backwards, looking pale at the place where he had just fallen, and a colorful python was spitting snake letters, hovering from the sand and raising its head. Looking at Singh's embarrassed appearance, Zhuge Blade Heart and Sima Yingxuan on the city wall leaned forward and fell back happily. Singh was about to turn around and argue with the two of them, but saw Sima Yingxuan grinning and pointing behind him. Singh looked back and saw countless crimson scorpions crawling towards him with bright purple tail hooks and two huge claws waving from the sand in front of him. Singh was so frightened that his face was bloodless, so he had to turn around and flee to the gate. Hearing a crisp sound under his feet, Singh dodged left and right to dodge the bamboo poles that kept sweeping.
"You're pretty good, be careful." Zhuge Blade Xin praised with a smile.
Singh was about to show off after dodging the bamboo pole array, but he saw that the green smoke continued to rise from under his feet, and the sound of "crackling" firecrackers was everywhere. "Immediately a number of young men and women on the city wall threw their swim bladders filled with water at Singh, and despite his agility, he could not avoid it, and was hit up and down by the 'blisters' flying from all directions. Zhuge Blade Heart on the city gate and Sima Yingyu high-fived each other with satisfaction, and they were simply happy. Singh was forced to have no choice but to 'threaten' Zhuge Blade and said that when you go to Sima's house to welcome your relatives in the future, if you don't want to be so 'offended', quickly open the door and let him in. Sima Yingxuan was ashamed and delicate after hearing this, and took out a few sugar cubes from his pocket and prepared to call Singh, Zhuge saw this and hurriedly stopped her, telling her that according to the local rules, the unmarried girl who received the candy could only be eaten by the person she liked, and what if the candy was thrown out and let Singh receive it. Sima Yingxuan smiled shyly and stuffed a sugar cube into Zhuge Blade's heart.
In the hall, Zhuge Yixin was dressed in a shiny and exquisite silver suit, holding a silver bowl to feed the fragrant glutinous rice to Mrs. Sima. After Mrs. Sima finished eating, she smiled and took an antique wooden box from the hands of her clansmen, opened it, took out a greasy and icy jade bracelet and put it on Zhuge Yixin's hand.
"This is a treasure that my Sima family has only passed down to the patriarch's wife for generations, even in the Great Jin Dynasty, many queens can't ask for it, and you will be its master in the future." The clansman handed over a brocade box wrapped in yellow satin, and Mrs. Sima took it and gently brushed it on the satin surface with one hand and said, "Master Kujing doesn't like to be noisy, this is a gift he entrusted me to bring to you, and I wish you and your husband and wife to grow old together and tie the same heart forever." ”
After the wedding ceremony, Zhuge Yixin passed the position of patriarch to his younger brother, and the first thing Zhuge Blade Heart did when he became the patriarch was to ask Mrs. Sima to agree to his marriage with Sima Yingxuan.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw Master Kujing standing in the room waiting for the two, and after the three of them sat down, Dao Yan thought that there must be something important for these two elders to invite him here late at night, and he was about to ask, but he heard Master Kujing cough lightly and said: "Inviting Master Yun to come tonight is first of all to express my gratitude for destroying demon beasts, saving the people, and resolving the long-standing feud between our two clans. ”
"The master is serious, this is what the younger generation should do." Dao Yan said modestly.
"Master Yun Shi is young and promising, and his achievements in the coming day will definitely have a bright future, the old man wants to continue the story of Mrs. Sima before to tell you the ending of those three people, how about it?" Master Kujing said.
"Master, please speak." Dao Yan Dao.
After the elimination of the 'Nine Water Demon Beasts', the master, Zhuge Wu and Sima Kong formed a friendship of life and death and decided to do some good deeds for the common people in the world. Many years later, the three of them successfully completed their tasks, returned to the imperial court and were reused by the emperor, Zhuge Wu was unwilling to be an official in the imperial court, so he returned to Miao Jiang after bidding farewell to the two. After that, the master was imprisoned because of a woman who offended the emperor, and his life was in danger, Zhuge Wu immediately rushed from Miaojiang to discuss the rescue with Sima Kong, because the prisoner was too dangerous, the two discussed and Zhuge Wu went to the adventure to rescue, and Sima Kong stayed as a backup. As a result, the rescue plan failed, Zhuge Wu died tragically, and the master disappeared. Soon the emperor lost the war with the Western Regions and civil strife broke out, Sima Kong endured the humiliation, found an opportunity to send the woman to Dongying, and went to Miao Jiang to send back the ancestral white jade of the Zhuge clan, and after returning home, he made a family rule, the descendants of the Sima clan were not allowed to participate in anything related to the imperial court, and finally died of depression.
Dao Yan never thought that the final ending of these three heroic characters would be so miserable, and after listening to Master Kujing's speech, he couldn't help but feel sorry for them.
"Does Master Yun want to ask the old man why he wants to tell you about this?" Master Kujing said.
"Does the master feel that the present is very similar to the past, and wants to warn the younger generations to think twice before doing things?" Dao Yan Dao.
"Yun Shi is very sensitive, and that's exactly what the old man meant. When Lao Wei first met Master Yun, he felt that you were very similar to the master recorded in the Sima family chronicles, so he asked for a sign for you. But that doesn't count. If the cloud donor is willing today, he will ask for a sign himself. Master Kujing said.
With a crisp sound, Dao Yan picked up the bamboo sticks on the ground, and saw that it read: Heroism of the world, wind and snow, love of the moon, the fate of the lonely star, and the Buddha and the devil walk from their hearts. After Dao Yan saw it, he sent it to Master Kujing. After seeing this, Master Ku Jing sighed and shook his head, and took out another bamboo skewer from his sleeve and handed it to Dao Yan. Dao Yan took it and saw that it was exactly the same as the one he had just begged for, so Dao Yan asked Master Ku Jing for advice.
"This is a fateful lot, Lord Yun needs to cherish your partner more in the days to come." Master Ku Jing said affectionately, and Mrs. Sima also nodded.
Dao Yan returned to his room and found that Paya was lying in her clothes, so she gently walked over and planned to cover her with a quilt, but as soon as she approached, Paya suddenly sat up, hugged him, pouted and asked him where he went without her, and she participated in the haunting room for the first time since she was a child, and felt very interesting.
"No matter what happens in the future, I will not let you leave me." Dao Yan said affectionately.
"No matter what happens in the future, I will not leave you." Paya said with tears of happiness in her eyes.
Sima Xuanhuang and his wife reluctantly bid farewell to Dao Yan and Paya, and Zhuge Blade Heart and Sima Yingxuan agreed with everyone that after the Moon God Clan settled down, they must return to Miao Jiang to make up for the two of them. Loaded with various gifts from the Zhuge clan, the procession set out again to meet the leader of the 'Bai Zhen', while Joseph set out early to meet his lieutenant in the Yuan Dynasty on Zhongqing Road.
