037 Bonfire
The north wind is blowing and the snow is flying. At the foot of Zhongzhou Mountain, in a few simple houses, a group of people are drinking and having fun in the first snow of this winter.
The crackling bonfire was blazing, and young men and women roasted the yellow sheep around the bonfire. The girls were reserved and tearing the lamb in their hands, and the boys were shouting loudly with their wine bowls held high.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, but no one had any intention of going back to the house to take shelter. Spirits and cold wind, mixed with a little cold snow, this is the most enjoyable thing for men. Not only the men are arrogant, but even the girls are not lagging behind, and they are smiling and blushing when they frequently raise their glasses.
No one is afraid of the cold, and the disciples of the cultivators will still be afraid of the cold?
There is no one who is not happy, because today's snowfly brings a rare vacation.
Spirits, bonfires, roast mutton, these things that the inner disciples disdain, are already worth enjoying in the eyes of these outer disciples.
However, everyone is obviously not completely happy, and their eyes have been glancing at Zhongzhou Mountain.
After a while, Yang Fan, who had the best eyes in the crowd, suddenly stood up and shouted.
"Here, senior brother and he are here..."
When everyone heard this, they all got up and looked, and from a distance, there were really two figures coming from the mountains of Zhongzhou.
It was Flowing Fire and the Follower Suzaku who came.
This is the first snow of the year in Zhongzhou Mountain, the heavy snow makes everyone have no intention of learning, Master Tongxuan saw that everyone's mood was on appreciating the snow, and he was merciful to let everyone rest for a day.
The outer disciples were very excited, got together to discuss how to take a vacation, and finally unanimously decided to have a bonfire, eat barbecue, and drink spirits. Just as everyone was excitedly discussing how the bonfire would be opened, the ridicule of several inner disciples made them very unhappy.
"Grassroots... A group of grassroots..."
The ridiculer walked away, leaving the outer disciples angry. Just when everyone was angry, the clever Yang Fan came up with an idea and suggested that everyone go and invite Liuhuo to participate together.
"Senior Brother Liuhuo is the best among the inner disciples, and he can be compared to the Jade Qilin in terms of identity, let's invite him to see who dares to laugh at us..."
"Yes, Senior Brother Liuhuo doesn't have a shelf, so he will definitely be able to move..."
"That's it, Senior Brother Liuhuo can even tolerate such a sticky Vermilion Bird, it's impossible not to come..."
Well, the latter sentence is vinegary, and it must be a girl who is a little angry.
In the end, everyone unanimously proposed to let the steady Zuo Panyu and the clever Yang Fan go together to invite the fire.
Flowing fire really didn't have a shelf, and when the two explained their intentions, they agreed. not only agreed, but then rejected the invitations of Li Feiyang and Hou Wen.
Now the outer disciples had light on their faces, so they hurried back to the bottom of the mountain to set up a bonfire party, and waited together for the flowing fire that would arrive later.
When Flowing Fire and Suzaku walked into the courtyard, everyone gathered around to say hello.
Liuhuo put down the basket of dried and fresh fruits he brought with him, picked up the wine bowl and said.
"Thank you for your kind invitation, cheers..."
After speaking, he leaned his neck and drank a bowl. When everyone saw that the fire was so bold, they all raised their glasses and drank together.
I was a little anxious to drink the fire, and finally choked on the drink. Suzaku rolled his eyes vigorously next to him, as if he was angry and had no luck, but he was angry, and finally wiped the wine stains on his neckline with a handkerchief.
Seeing that Liuhuo was so easy-going, there was no shelf at all, and they all raised their wine glasses and poured wine.
There were even a few female disciples, smiling with spring on their faces, and their bodies swaying forward, wanting to have a drink with Liuhuo alone.
Liuhuo looked at the girl's watery eyes, and couldn't refuse, so he had to dry up the wine.
As soon as Liuhuo put down the wine bowl, Suzaku next to him quietly approached his ear and whispered.
"See? That's the one who really wants to make a sugar daddy..."
Liuhuo's face turned red when he heard this, but he didn't wait for it to be red. The soft flesh on his waist suddenly had a sharp pain, and the painful face turned white again, and it turned out that Suzaku had twisted him fiercely.
After Suzaku finished twisting the fire, he picked up his wine glass and drank it with his sisters like no one else.
Before the flowing fire could slow down, Yang Fan sat down beside the flowing fire with a smile.
"Senior brother, I salute you for a bowl, you can come and cheer us on, it's really... It's really..."
Yang Fan couldn't go on, and at this time, Zuo Panyu also came over with wine and said respectfully.
"I didn't expect Senior Brother to give us outer disciples such a big face, I'll do this bowl first as respect..."
After saying that, Yang Fan didn't speak anymore when he saw this, and then dried up the wine.
The bonfire is getting stronger and stronger, and the mutton is all crippled. Everyone gathered in groups, and the groups didn't know what they were muttering.
The drunken went back to the house to sleep, and the girls whispered around Suzaku, chattering and not knowing what to say, but from time to time they looked up and peeked at the fire, and then a group of people ate and laughed.
"Suzaku must be speaking ill of me..."Flowing Fire thought to himself.
The sun was sinking little by little, and no one was willing to add firewood to the campfire, and everyone drank a little too much. However, there are still a few people around the flowing fire, and they still talk about sex.
"Senior brother's performance at the Hundred Flowers Meeting is really surprising, and he was able to take out another small dragon from the fire dragon..." Yang Fan excitedly recalled the scene at that time.
Zuo Panyu was much calmer than Yang Fan, "Senior Brother can release fifteen ice ring techniques in a row, how did he do it? Can you give us a solution?"
The question of Yang Fan and Zuo Panyu resonated with everyone, and Liuhuo saw that everyone was very interested and willing to share it with everyone.
"Actually, it's not difficult to continue casting, the difficult thing is whether the magic weapon can suppress and digest so much vitality backlash, in fact, those ice ring techniques, the first six are all magic weapons to help me solve, and the next nine are all hard resistance from me..."
Liuhuo's answer obviously surprised everyone, and Zuo Panyu felt the most.
"Senior Brother's heart is really stable and ruthless enough, and he can resist the backlash of the Nine Ice Ring Technique on his own..."
"I thought the inner disciples were all pleasure-seekers or sinister and cunning people. But now it seems that the rumors are not true..."
Zuo Panyu's words touched everyone deeply, and they all talked about the dominance of the inner disciples.
Liuhuo was also unaccustomed to some of the practices of the inner disciples, and unconsciously pulled himself out of the inner disciples.
"Actually, I can only barely count half of the inner disciples, I was originally an orphan from the East Country..."
Liuhuo slowly told everyone about his life experience and cultivation path, and only after everyone listened to it did he really admire it from the bottom of his heart.
"I thought that we outer disciples were bitter enough, but compared to senior brothers, it was nothing at all..."
"Senior Brother's cultivation path is so difficult..."
"It is rumored outside that Liu Da is worshipping and has developed a new cultivation model, but I didn't expect it to be such a path of suffering..."
The long talk that night lasted for a long time, and everyone who opened their hearts shared the joys and sorrows in their hearts, and Suzaku watched quietly beside the flowing fire, and there was also some tremor in his heart.
Many years later, when Suzaku recalled the bonfire that night, he only said three words.
"It was on that day that Yang Fan and Zuo Panyu made up their minds to follow the flowing fire and never give up for the rest of their lives..."
"It was that night that the cultivation path of the Flowing Fire actually affected a group of awakened people, and in the end, these awakened people created a new path..."
"It was that night that I met a man who made my heart flutter..."
The night was already deep, the wind and snow were still very strong, and Suzaku slowly walked on the mountain road with the help of the drunken fire.
Originally, relying on Suzaku's cultivation, he could easily carry the flowing fire home. But somehow, Suzaku kind of liked the feeling of walking on the mountain road with him in his arms like this.
The drunken man was dead, and his mouth full of wine sprayed on Suzaku's face from time to time. Suzaku dodged the incoming smell of alcohol, and at the same time, he had to stabilize the body of the flowing fire.
When he saw the courtyard gate of his house, Suzaku was actually sweating profusely.
At the door of the small courtyard, the maids were still waiting, and when they saw the young master go home, they quickly took the drunken fire from Suzaku and took it to the room to rest.
Suzaku lay in his room, looking up at the roof, thinking quickly.
"It's almost time to go out on a mission, and I must report the information during this time to Lord Feng as soon as possible..."
"All kinds of intelligence show that the Yu family and the Li family will definitely make ghosts in the process of this mission. It's a pity that the information handed in by the shadows is too scattered..."
"As for the Vitality Array. The defense is so tight that it seems that there is no way to infiltrate it in the short term..."
"Lan Ji's attitude is very subtle, she was so suppressed by Liu Lao, she didn't immediately fall into the camp of the Yu family, it seems that this woman is very thoughtful..."
"The Hou family and the Shi family, although they are close, are far from the point of alliance, it seems that in the short term, the Yu family and the Li family are still headed by the Yu family and the Li family..."
"As for the old man Tongxuan, it seems that he is fully focused on ancient books and the Yuan Qi Array, and he has no interest in fighting for power and profit..."
"The other worshippers are all scattered, and there are no outstanding characters for the time being..."
In the middle of the night when the wind and snow were blowing, Suzaku stayed awake all night.
In the days that followed, Driftfire continued to go to class as usual.
But today Flowing Fire felt a little weird. After inquiring carefully, I learned that the Senate had decided to let the inner disciples go on a mission.
When Master Tongxuan approached the class, the ticket box held in the arms of the waiter behind him attracted everyone's attention.
"This draw task is limited to inner disciples, for the sake of fairness, all tasks are placed in the ballot box, and you can draw your own..."
"Let me remind you that this mission has not been released in the political hall, and your parents and teachers do not know the details of the mission, and the task arrangements are all undertaken by the Senate.
"These tasks are your graduation exams, and if you don't complete them, you will have to study with me for another year next year..."
Master Tongxuan's words were exchanged for a discussion in the classroom. Jade Qilin and Li Feiyang didn't care about their faces, obviously confident. But the children of the other worshippers and supervisors were a little blind, and they were all muttering quietly.
"Oh no, I heard that there are a lot of front-line tasks here, isn't this a matter of life?"
"If you can't complete the task, you have to study for another year? I can't stay for a month..."
"You won't let us go to the vast mountains to kill orcs, will you?"
"Are you going to explore the Jedi?"
"It's really killing our relatives, and we're caught up with what happened to us..."
Master Tongxuan saw that the class was in chaos, and he was not annoyed, and waved his hand to signal the waiter to report the ticket box.
The draw ceremony officially began.
