Chapter 23: The Wedding Ceremony
The Xuanyuan Emperor's capital is located in the very center of the vast territory of Xuanyuan, and there is dark red magma flowing under it, and Yuan Ji remembers that in that land, the surrounding mountains and rocks will make a loud rumbling sound from time to time, followed by a gushing hot slurry, accompanied by billowing black smoke.
Those splattering magma everywhere are a fear and threat to foreign beings, but to the people of Xuanyuan, they are as valuable as spiritual water.
Everywhere you look, you can see the burning red rocks being pushed high into the air and falling at a gallop, leaving thousands of fiery red scratches in the air of the smoke screen, and the demons do not shy away from letting the hot slurry fall on their hair, shoulders, and clothes, and then laugh at each other.
That was the scene nearly 50,000 years ago, when Yuan Ji was a thousand years old, she sneaked into Xuanyuan to learn illusions.
At that time, she also saw the pentagonal white and translucent white Qiyi Stone in the Xiyuan Territory, the endless green Xuanxuan leaves in the underground forest of Nanyuan, and the colorful water spirit algae in the thousands of magical caves.
Thirst told Yuan Ji that those were the foods that the Xuanyuan creatures relied on to survive and replenish their spiritual energy.
At this time, there is a towering gray-black ancient tower in the Tianquan mirror, this ancient tower Yuan Ji naturally recognizes, more than 30,000 years ago, Mo Ziyan's mother, Queen Xiuyue, ascended the throne when Yuan Ji went to the palace, that is the Xuanyuan Tower, the residence of the royal family, and it takes a special spell to gradually show its full appearance.
In the picture, the surrounding area of the Xuanyuan Pagoda is full of people, men, women and children, rubbing shoulders one after another, thunderous and lively.
I saw that the spire of the ancient tower above the sky was like a blooming lotus flower in an instant, hanging out in all directions, and the demon spirits held their breath for a while, and their eyes looked at the circular holy platform in the center of the lotus without blinking, and the rock wall that hung down suddenly turned into a hundred steps, connecting the rose red carpet that had been laid in front of the main entrance of the ancient tower.
Jing Wei saw that the holy platform was quite spacious, it should be able to stand two or three hundred people, and the center of the back of the holy platform was the throne of the king of Xuanyuan.
The seat is ten zhang high, and the high backrest is inlaid with countless blood Ye stones, the blood Ye stones are angular and angular, each ridge line is so sharp, in the light of the setting sun, the light emitted by the blood Ye stone is bright golden red.
Next to the throne was a single chair of sterling silver encrusted with green gems, and on either side of the altar were two long tables made of rosewood, on which were neatly arranged six silver-based gilded wine glasses, and a dozen plates of dark green raw leaves and jujube red water spirit algae.
At the long table sat six people, no less than no less, the same number of wine glasses, and on either side of the throne closest to the throne sat Thirst and Ear, Hunger on the left and Ear on the right.
Yuan Ji was surprised that the full ears with long blood-red hair that reached the ground two thousand years ago are now full of vicissitudes, and the long hair is not there, only short shoulder-length hair, but in comparison, Yuan Ji is more curious and longing for the other four unfamiliar faces sitting next to her.
Xin Tong, who was on the side, seemed to be able to understand Yuan Ji's thoughts, so he said: "The previous deputy generals of Xuan Yuan all died in Hansuo Bay, and these four are all new generals, the two famous Erdong and Ai Chuan on the left guard the east source and the north source, and the two famous Zhong Jian and Pai Lan on the right guard the west source and the south source. ”
"Who guards Hansuo Bay?" said Yuanji.
"Back to the Queen, the defenders of Hansuo Bay, withdraw. Xin Tong said.
Yuanji turned her head, "Withdrawn?"
"Yes, the queen, forty years ago, Ye Thorn went to Xuanyuan, and formulated a new military system for the Demon Ziyan, and the abolition of the Hansuo Bay defenders is just a part of it, in addition, she also established a new legion, Mingdu Ling, which specializes in domesticating those demons who have just entered the Xuanyuan and are not on the right track, and the chaotic people who originally wandered on the mountains and hills were domesticated and arranged in rows. ”
When Xin Tong said this, he pointed to the slightly chubby man sitting next to him in the Tianquan Mirror and said with two black copper earrings: "He is Pai Lan, the current commander of the Spirit Crossing Legion, and also the guardian of Nanyuan. ”
"This seat remembers that those crazy demons were everywhere before Xuanyuan, and they all entered the ......army in the end," Yuan Ji paused when she said this, and couldn't help but feel that the leaf thorn that had only one side in the Tianshan Sacred Palace that night was indeed not to be underestimated.
Xin Tong smiled: "Queen, not all of them can enter the army, and some who are not skilled in cultivation will be assigned to make weapons or build city walls. ”
"In short, almost all the people of Xuanyuan are soldiers now, I remember that the master said that the area of Xuanyuan Nanyuan is the largest, and it is also a key defensive place facing Hansuo Bay, if you want me to say that the power of this Crossing Spirit Legion is really not small, not only controlling the source of soldiers, but also commanding the entire Nanyuan. Jing Wei on the side interjected.
Hearing this, Xin Tong bent the corners of his eyes, and said with a shallow smile: "Maybe I want to train him to be the heir of the Dharma Protector." ”
"Then I hope he's looking at it this time. Jing Wei sneered: "Don't be a big joke like the previous Qingjian, a naked thief." ”
Qing Jian, the commander of the original Hansuo Bay garrison of Xuanyuan, was previously a disciple of Qingshui Zhenren, the master of Tian'en Gate, and Qingfeng, Qingyi, Qingming and Mo Ziyan's father Qingfan were each other's brothers, and they were named by Qingshui Zhenren after entry.
It is rumored that Qing Jian was impatient by nature, and accidentally went mad during a practice, and his naked empty body was sucked by the force of Xuan Yuan, and he completely became a demon disciple. Later, because of his extraordinary qualifications, Qingjian was favored by Manda, and was promoted step by step to the deputy general under the protector, responsible for guarding the only non-Force entrance of Xuanyuan - Hansuo Bay.
But in the end, Qingjian was charged with stealing the Zhenguo artifact Lingsheng Jade into the Xuanyuan Purgatory-Black Demon Tomb, and has not yet come out.
At this time, a long-haired woman appeared on the stairs in front of the Xuanyuan Holy Platform in the Tianquan Realm, her hair was as red as magma sprayed from afar, her curved willow eyebrows, and her dignified demeanor.
Xin Tong said indifferently: "Queen, Xiu Yun is indeed dead, she is the daughter of Xiu Yun, the name Demon Xueqin, the eldest princess of Xuanyuan now, and the survivor of the Hansuo Bay War,"
Yuan Ji carefully looked at Mo Xueqin who was walking up to the holy platform step by step, her eyes moved back and forth from her eyes to her lips, her shoulders and fingers, until Mo Xueqin had already sat down on the chair next to the throne with sterling silver and green gems, and then Yuan Ji muttered to herself: "It's really not, but it's too similar, if you don't look closely, you think it's Xiuyun." ”
"Her father is Qingjian. Xin Tong said.
Yuan Ji was a little surprised when she heard this, after all, how could the princess of the royal family have feelings for thieves, and even if she fell in love for a long time, she had children and daughters who swept her reputation like Qingjian, leaving her bloodline, wouldn't it mess up the Xuanyuan royal rules......
At this time, even Jing Wei on the side was a little unacceptable, "Senior sister, are you sure you are not mistaken? If this princess's father is Qingjian, then she should have been stillborn a long time ago, how could Xiu Yue let her live to the end?" and it is even more impossible to be allowed to participate in the new king's queen ceremony as the eldest princess!"
"So they don't know about Xiuyue. Xin Tong said.
Jing Wei's eyes widened, "So now only we know, who can hide the background of the princess of this country?"
Xintong didn't answer, but looked leisurely at the full ears in the mirror.
Yuan Ji wanted to investigate this matter in detail, but her eyes were hooked by a pair of backs that suddenly appeared on the holy platform at this time.
The back is a man and a woman, the woman is a gray-brown floor-length hair, the hair color is slightly red, when she turned around, Yuan Ji saw a round goose egg face, saw the soft arc from the forehead to the tip of the nose, from the tip of the nose to the chin, the corners of her eyes were slightly curved, smiling shallowly, and the eyes were tender and quiet, looking forward to happiness.
Seeing the leaf thorn again, Yuanji's heart was calm and complicated.
She was the woman who galloped with Xin Tong in the Holy Palace that night, she was still the right protector of the Tianshan Empire at that time, and she was still wearing a bronze red chain on her wrist, and under the effect of the red chain at that time, her hair was just like the man next to her at this time, beautiful blood red.
She is the woman who broke into Xuanyuan alone forty years ago to steal the Lingsheng Jade for herself, but she is also the woman who broke into the Immortal Altar and let go of the Immortal Evil Spirit that Su Yu had sealed with all her strength, and it is also this woman who makes Xuanyuan now strong and strong, this woman, is this woman bad or good, friend or foe?
At this time, the man beside Ye Thorn also turned around, and when Yuan Ji's gaze touched his face, he couldn't help but shudder, and the cold sweat in his palms suddenly broke out.
Although Yuan Ji had already told himself countless times before he turned around, don't panic when you see Mo Ziyan, don't have any waves, be calm, be calm, because he is not Su Yu, he is another person, a complete stranger, a person who has nothing to do with him, but at this moment, Yuan Ji's eyes are still flushed with red tides, and she just looks straight at him in the mirror.
He has a fairy awe-inspiring eyebrows, a handsome and straight nose bridge, moderately thick lips, a perfect curvature of four high and three low sides, with an extraordinary temperament, in the eyes of Yuan Ji, he is Su Yu, the living Su Yu, the son of the gods who gave up all for himself and the Tianshan Empire.
After that, Yuan Ji forgot all the things that happened next on the altar, forgot what the Demon Ziyan in the mirror said to the people of the country, forgot the brilliant aurora that suddenly bloomed on the Xuanyuan Pagoda, and forgot the kiss he had with her......
Yuan Ji's gaze always stayed on Mo Ziyan, all the sounds in the world seemed to have disappeared, everything was silent, and all people and things that had nothing to do with the man in front of her disappeared.
The colorful sky disappeared, the solemn Xuanyuan Pagoda disappeared, the boiling crowd disappeared, the ears full of thirst disappeared, and even the leaf thorns finally became transparent.
Yuan Ji's eyes were only left with the fiery and red-eyed man, and she even thought that his hair and eyes in front of her could instantly change from bewitching blood red to elegant and sacred blue, she thought that he in front of her could suddenly turn into a giant dragon of the sky and sea, staring at herself with blue eyes like a clear sky, and at the same time telling herself, telling everyone that he was not Mo Ziyan, his name was Su Yu.
