Chapter Twenty-Three: The Fire Is Re-Established
The Mid-Autumn Festival Insect Club in the Half Moon Building, after the election of the insect king, has always been a refrain from firecrackers, for fear that the sulfur in the firecrackers will smoke the fighting scorpions.
But the Autumn Insect Club, which made half of the city boiling, how could it be that it ran in the cold?
The victory and defeat had just been divided on the scorpion table here, and before the scorpion judge standing next to the scorpion table could speak to decide whether he won or lost, the scorpion player who had already done good things over there rushed to the window on the third floor of the Half Moon Building, opened his voice and shouted: "Na Jiu Ye has won!" ”
"Hurry up and bang on the ringer! The insect king of this year's Autumn Insect Club has shown his face! ”
"Hairpin pots, please come out quickly! This is to dress up the insect king! ”
Immediately, the bell team that had already been waiting in front of the door of the Half Moon Building was blowing and blowing lively, and the jokes were all ready-made - first a paragraph of "Da Gao Sheng" to be lively, and then a fold of "Xiao Feng Xiang" to listen to the idea, and then it depends on how much work the class owners of the bell teams from all walks of life have, all of which are taking advantage of the crowd to be lively, but they can show it vigorously!
Holding the gold leaf and silver thread wrapped out of the hairpin basket was also invited down from the incense table enshrined in the hall of the Half Moon Building, the Taishang shopkeeper in the old crown of the rise wore reading glasses to serve the craftsmanship with his own hands, and the butterflies with gold leaf stickers hung on the silver thread that was only the thickness of a human hair, trembling and jumping on the colorful silk flowers, looking as light and agile as a living thing.
Holding the scorpion jar containing the Seven Killing Scorpions, Na Jiu Ye looked dazed, and was surrounded by a group of scorpion players like a cloud, and hugged to the hall of the Half Moon Building without touching the ground with both feet.
In response to Na Jiuye, the second shopkeeper of the half-moon building, and the palm of the scorpion judge of the Autumn Insect Society, he was greeted by a big man from all over the world, and shouted at Na Jiuye with a bright voice: "Please insect king hairpin!" ”
In a daze, Na Jiuye stiffened his arm and put the scorpion jar in his arms into the delicate hairpin pot, and then put the hat-like base of the hairpin pot on his head by the palm of the scorpion judge of the Autumn Insect Society.
With the colorful hairpin pots, before Na Jiu Ye could speak, the scorpion players swarming behind him rushed out of the Half Moon Tower.
According to the rules of the Autumn Insect Association in previous years, the selected insect king winners had to wear hairpin pots and swim back to the street, until the five poison gods were sacrificed to the five poison gods on the five poison temples in the south of the city, which was regarded as a sacrifice to all beings in heaven and earth, and all kinds of gods, and firmly installed the title of the insect king on himself.
Crowded in the cracks of the people, the leopard almost used the secret small figure in the main gate of the fire, and finally squeezed to the side of Na Jiu Ye who was in a trance, and shouted in Na Jiu Ye's ear with a muffled voice: "Uncle, remember our big event!" ”
Blindfolded, Na Jiuye turned his head with a stiff neck, and looked at Xiang Youbao for a long time as if he was looking at a stranger, before he squeezed out a sentence from his throat: "Let's win?" ”
Stretched out his hand and pinched the soft flesh of Na Jiuye's waist and eyes, and Xiang Youbao stared at Na Jiuye, who was so painful that he almost jumped up, and shouted: "At this time, you are stunned, aren't you?" Touch the hairpin basket on your head, if you don't win this year's insect king, this hairpin basket can be on your head? ”
As if he had just woken up from a dream, Na Jiu Ye arched his hand to the scorpion player who was complimenting him casually, but at the same time, he looked at Xiang Youbao with a hesitant expression: "Do you really want to say that at this moment?" ”
Zha Xu opened his arms to protect Na Jiuye, who was constantly squeezed by the crowd, and nodded solemnly: "We have all discussed it at home-if you can win the insect king of this year's Autumn Insect Society, then Uncle Shi, you will come forward to re-establish the name of the main gate of the fire!" ”
Still hesitating, Na Jiuye snorted and said: "But in terms of kung fu and typesetting in the main gate of the fire, your uncle is really not a big deal!" If you really re-establish the main gate of the fire, then you can't stop looking for trouble."
patted his thick chest with confidence, but Xiang Youbao looked indifferent: "The one who opens the store is not afraid of the big-bellied man, and the kiln sister is still afraid of the rouge customer?" Isn't it the Eight Great Fighting Beasts? Back then, my master was able to train the eight fighting beasts in a year, and now I really don't believe that I can't learn what my master did! Besides, you are the master of this year's autumn insect meeting to serve the insect king, and among the eight fighting beasts of snakes, scorpions, eagles, dogs, monkeys, chickens, rats, and cows, you have already taken a share of the top incense! ”
Staggered forward, but Na Jiuye still shook his head vigorously: "Senior nephew, will you let Senior Uncle ponder again?" This cloud and mountain fog cover has won the insect king, uncle, I haven't recovered in my head."
took out an oilcloth ticket from his arms and shook it towards Na Jiuye, Xiang Youbao smiled at Na Jiuye with a sly face: "Uncle Shi, what else are you thinking about?" Aren't you just expecting that this autumn insect will be able to catch a few oceans on the roll-off ticket, close the door and let the junior sister accompany you for a few days of clean life? I'll tell you the truth - just from the time Master Xiong beat us out of our house and hung the dragon whip on the door frame of our house, you can be considered involved! Even if you don't want to show up, but think about it, Debelle and Qi Sanye, which of these two is the easiest master to deal with? If you can't bear it for a moment, they will be able to bite you back and kill you! ”
staring at Xiang Youbao anxiously, Na Jiuye slapped him fiercely: "Good guy, you are really the apprentice taught by your master - saving the game can also save your uncle into the scourge!" ”
put on a look of surprise and inexplicability, and Xiang Youbao shouted out to hit the sky regardless of it: "Uncle Shi, what you said is really wrong!" Not to mention the current forty-nine cities, but look for them all over the world, who is holding the ocean and stuffing you in your pocket, and by the way, worshipping you as an ancestor? ”
Blinking his eyes quickly, Na Jiu Ye seemed to understand something, and pointed at Xiang Youbao very angrily and shouted: "The bit of badness that you kid is holding back, you really don't understand when you are your uncle?" Originally, those old disciples in the main gate of Huo, as well as those masters who relied on the fragments of the alien beast diagram to serve the beasts from all walks of life, came to the door to find fault with dissatisfaction, didn't they just take the fragments of the alien beast diagram in their hands and send them to your arms? There is a hanging up of your uncle to carry it for you, and there are benefits for you to secretly stuff and be a chicken thief like you, I will see the second one in my life! ”
"The second? So who else is that? ”
"Your lack of virtue is smoking, you run away when you get into trouble, and you still have your own junior brother and your master!"
"You can't call me that master"
"That's all I said!"
"The matter of re-erecting the main gate of the fire"
"No way!"
In the chatter of Na Jiuye and Nalala, the five poison temples in the south of the city are already in sight.
In the temple of five poisons, five kinds of reptile poisons are enshrined. Except for the Dragon Boat Festival, when people with children at home can go to the temple to ask for a five-element talisman painted with five poisons to protect their children, and the incense can be vigorous for a few days, the deserted Five Poisons Temple is almost not patronized by anyone on weekdays. The old temple in the temple relies on a craft of writing with white sand on weekdays, singing the Five Poisons Sutra on the street to barely make a living, and he is counting on the rules of the annual autumn insect meeting in Sijiu City to choose the insect queen to worship the five poisonous gods, and you can also buy a few catties of pig's head meat to fight teeth and sacrifice meat.
Seeing Na Jiuye staring at the hairpin basket and being surrounded by the crowd, the old Miao Zhu, who was missing half of his front teeth, coughed fiercely twice and cleared his throat, and then stretched the half-old Taoist robe at the bottom of the box on his body, and pulled his neck to greet the door and sang the Five Poisons Sutra: "Born with five poisons and arsenic, what can I do"
didn't wait for the old temple town to finish singing a few sentences of the Five Poisons Sutra, and a few good scorpion players had already raised their hands and threw dozens of big sons: "Don't fucking howl your few words that don't slip away, hurry up and open the temple door to welcome the insect king, it's serious!" If you delay the time to worship the five poisonous gods, the lord will pour wax on you and light it to sacrifice the five poisonous gods! ”
With a flattering smile, Lao Miaozhu quickly picked up the eldest son who had the blood rolling on the ground, and did not delay to make a gesture to Na Jiuye, who was holding a hairpin pot, and put on an obvious pleasing look: "Say hello to the insect king!" After worshipping the Five Poison Gods, the things you are waiting for this year are guaranteed to be consecutive wins! I'm here to congratulate you again."
After fumbling around around his body for a long time, Na Jiuye looked helplessly at Xiang Youbao who was standing beside him: "Senior nephew, do you have any money on you?" ”
Raised his hand and took out two pieces of ocean, Xiang Youbao played with the two pieces of ocean in the palm of his hand, and looked at Na Jiuye with a coercion: "Then Uncle Shi agreed?" ”
"What do I promise you?"
"Re-establish the main gate of the fire"
"No way!"
"That's no money"
Seeing that the old temple was blocked in front of the door of the Five Poisons Temple, and the pleasing words in his mouth were refreshed one after another, Na Jiuye was so anxious that he stomped his feet vigorously: "You dead child, at this juncture, you are pinching your uncle?" ”
Confidently carried the two oceans into his arms, and Xiang Youbao smiled unceremoniously: "Hey, who dares to pinch you, uncle?" You are the king of insects who are freshly out of the pot and steaming at this year's autumn insect party, and the master of the hairpin pot! If you can't even take out two oceans in your hand, no one can believe it, right? Why don't you find these players around you? It has been spread all over the city in Ming'er Sijiu - the insect king at this year's Autumn Insect Meeting, and the two yuan of the five poison temple temple blessings are all turned over by others! When the time comes, your reputation will be greater, and your reputation will be greater than that of re-establishing the main gate of fire and being the head of the main gate of fire."
was so anxious that he turned around in place several times, and Na Jiuye was so hateful that his teeth were about to crush: "I promise you dead child, do I promise?!" ”
"You promised? What did you promise? ”
"Re-establish the main gate of the fire!"
With Na Jiuye's anxious roar, the scorpion players gathered around Na Jiuye suddenly quieted down, staring at Na Jiuye with their eyes and mouths open, looking at Na Jiuye with an angry face in a trance.
Hehe smiled evilly, raised his hand like a leopard and threw the two pieces of ocean into the arms of the old temple Zhu, who was chattering endlessly, turned around and shouted at the dumbfounded scorpion players around him with a bright voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am worried that all the masters walking on the scene in Sijiu City will be a witness - my senior uncle Najiu Master, I want to reopen the main gate!" When my uncle visited the Five Poisons Temple, and put on the hairpin pot of the insect king, it was the same thing, and the name of the main gate of the fire in the city of Sijiu would be poked down! Ladies and gentlemen walking on the scene, appreciating your face and shouting loudly?! ”
The gentlemen walking on the scene in Sijiu City have always been lively. In the fight, the knife man passed through the street covered in blood and wounds, and the shopkeeper had to give a thumbs up and shout in a bright voice - hard rod! The bodyguard's official took the dart car back to the capital from the mouth, and as soon as he entered the city gate, he could bump into a street of firecrackers and blow up his heart. At this time, he opened his voice and came out with the words of five levels and six generals, and the men on the street shouted that they met well, and they could be heard clearly by the palace and the palace.
Seeing that the main gate of Huo, which had been silent for many years, re-poked the banner in front of his eyes, the scorpion players who had just come over from the Autumn Insect Club on the street suddenly gave a thumbs up, opened their voices and shouted: "Na Jiuye is bright!" ”
"The insect king is mighty, and the fire is majestic!"
Turning around helplessly, Na Jiuye kept making a reply while holding the hairpin basket, while squinting his eyes angrily, staring at Xiang Youbao who smiled crookedly after the success of the trick: "You dead child can buy a fire and reopen the main gate with two oceans, you are really a good apprentice taught by your immoral master!" ”
