Chapter 50: A Moonlit Night
The next day, when Hu Xianxian was practicing some small spells, he thought that when he first saw Cheng Haofeng, he made the teapot rotate in the air. She is cultivating with memories of her previous life, and she has improved faster than others, and she wants to see if she can control the object in the air.
When she saw the sheets and quilt covers drying next to her, she stood her left hand on her chest, pinched her thumb and middle finger, and pinched the other three fingers, cocked her fingers, and recited the mantra silently: "All things are formed, the form is transformed by the Tao, the qi is contained in the Tao, and the things follow the law!" Flower sheets, come! Taishang Laojun is as anxious as a law! ”
Hu Xianxian's right hand stretched out horizontally, waiting for the flower sheet to fly into her hand on its own, but she didn't even recite it twice.
When she was anxious, Sanhua came upstairs at some point, "Miss, what are you doing?" ”
Hu Xianxian was very embarrassed at the moment, and even more single-mindedly thought that the magic could work, and just when she was so anxious that she was about to faint, the flower sheet moved slightly. Hu Xianxian was overjoyed in her heart, and she concentrated even more on her mental strength, and the flower sheets finally fluttered towards her right hand. She was overjoyed, and when she was not careful, she forgot to grab the flower sheet, and the flower sheet was directly on her.
Hu Xianxian hurriedly spread out his fingers, wanting to lift the flower sheets covering his body, but the more he panicked, the more he couldn't open them. Sanhua looked at the messy ball of flowers arching in front of her, and laughed breathlessly.
Hu Xianxian shouted angrily: "Sanhua, are you laughing stupidly? Help me rip it off. ”
With the help of Sanhua, Hu Xianxian finally got out, and Sanhua couldn't help laughing. Hu Xianxian glared at her, her eyes were about to burst into flames, and Sanhua hurriedly ran downstairs. Sanhua only laughed, ran in a hurry, and fell downstairs as soon as the soles of her feet slipped.
Hu Xianxian didn't think about it, pinched the finger with her left hand, grabbed it forward with her right hand, and before she could read the formula, she shouted: "Come on!" ”
Sanhua's body that was about to roll down the stairs flew upside down, flew straight in front of Hu Xianxian, and fell on the floor. Her face was still ruddy, but her eyes were motionless and bulging out.
Hu Xianxian shook his hand in front of her eyes: "Sanhua, can you see me?" ”
Sanhua's eyes moved, "Mom-", after she cried, her expression gradually became lively.
Hu Xianxian patted her shoulder: "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Sanhua rested for a while before sitting up and asked if Hu Xianxian had saved her, and Hu Xianxian told her that she didn't know how to do it. While the two were talking, Hu Xianxian asked her what she was doing upstairs before.
Sanhua patted his head and said, "Look at my memory!" I'm here to tell you that Hu Shoubei, who suppressed bandits last time, got the emperor's holy decree to exterminate Panlong Village, and he came to see you and his husband after passing through Lingzhou. ”
Hu Xianxian was puzzled: "Look at me and my mother?" ”
Sanhua said, "Go quickly, I'm talking to Madame right now." If you don't go downstairs, it's time for him to go. ”
When Hu Xianxian and Sanhua came downstairs, Hu Yonggang was saying goodbye to Aunt Hu, and when he saw Hu Xianxian coming, he said: "I thought that Miss Hu needed to meditate and cultivate, so I didn't bother, but I didn't expect to disturb Miss Hu." ”
Hu Xianxian said with a smile: "Hu Garrison is busy with military affairs, we are honored to take the time to come to see my mother and daughter, how can we say that it is disturbing?" ”
Hu Yonggang clasped his fists and saluted: "Since Miss Hu doesn't think I'm disturbing Qing Xiu, I'll come to visit your mother and daughter after I exterminate the bandits." ”
Hu Xianxian smiled and bowed: "Our mother and daughter are preparing a celebration banquet here, waiting for Hu Shoubei's triumphant return." ”
Hu Yong had just stepped out of the house and waited for the sergeant on the street to run forward with him. Vendors and pedestrians avoided each other, and the dust kicked up by this group of military horses filled the sky.
A passer-by said: "This Hu Shoubei won the battle last time, and he was rewarded by his boss, and he also had to be married to him by Master Ge of the Guozijian, who was really proud of his life." ”
Several people echoed him, and Uncle Zhang, who sold steamed buns, said, "Why do I think he is a bit like an acquaintance?" ”
Aunt Liu, who fed the pigs with swill, also said: "I also feel like an acquaintance." Like who's coming? ”
As soon as she turned around and saw Hu Xianxian, she clapped her hands, "I remembered!" Looks like a fairy fairy her father! ”
Uncle Zhang frowned: "How can it be like Hu Dacang?" Alas, don't say it's a bit like. This man...... Xianxian, he can't be your brother, right? ”
Aunt Hu sighed, and Hu Xianxian said: "I have already asked him, his parents are from the capital family, and he inherited his father's position before enlisting in the army as a garrison." ”
Aunt Liu said: "This is really a coincidence, they are all surnamed Hu, and they look so similar." ”
Hu Xianxian said with a smile: "There is nothing strange about this, the surname Hu in the world was an ancestor thousands of years ago, of course there are similarities." ”
After the army was over, the people in the streets went about their own business.
Soon it was the Spring Festival, and Hu Xianxian closed the store in the past few days and let the guys go home for reunion. Hu Xianxian devoted herself to cultivation, and she always wondered how she saved Sanhua without reciting all the formulas that day, and she didn't think that the Spring Festival was any different from weekdays.
Aunt Hu always sighed for a long time, she said that other people's holidays are lively and festive, but their home is more deserted than usual. Hu Xianxian had no choice but to put down her cultivation first and take Aunt Hu around the city, and she was in a slightly better mood.
After the tenth day of the first lunar month, the men all returned to work, and the families were busy preparing the lanterns for the Lantern Festival. They were going to make a few lanterns, and Aunt Hu was also busy with them, so that Hu Xianxian could purify and cultivate.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, the city is full of lights and candles, and two red lotus lanterns, two red carp lanterns, and two red fairy peach lanterns are hung at the entrance of Hongbin Building. Guests said that these six lanterns were beautiful and auspicious, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.
Aunt Hu smiled comfortably and said to Sanhua, "Do it according to my arrangement, right?" It's a pity that I don't have good eyes, and if I do it myself, I can make new and strange tricks. ”
Sanhua smiled and said yes, which made Aunt Hu even happier. But Aunt Hu smiled and frowned: "This immortal, why is he bored in that hut all day long?" Don't come out to see the lantern days? ”
Sanhua said, "I'll go see Miss." As soon as she took a step, she saw Hu Xianxian walk out by herself.
Hu Xianxian greeted his mother and third uncle with a smile, and greeted everyone again. She looked at the lanterns at the door of her house and said with emotion: "The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is full of lanterns, and after the lanterns, this New Year is over, and it's time to be busy." ”
Hu Xianxian said and looked into the distance again, the lights at the corner of the street had more styles and more gorgeous colors, which made her feel in a trance that she was in the Qionglou Yuyu above the nine heavens. The colorful lights are just like the Qihua and green trees in the Heavenly Palace, and the people who walk leisurely in the Qihua and Bishu bushes also fade away from the cheesiness in the light and shadow, like a leisurely immortal.
Hu Xianxian gradually felt that those people were indeed laymen, because there was a person who stood out of the dust among them. He was Cheng Haofeng, dressed in plain blue clothes, and walked calmly towards her in the crowd.
Hu Xianxian couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes, but Cheng Haofeng's eyes were calm and calm, and he didn't make any waves because he saw her.
The colorful lights floated on his face, and his starry eyes seemed even more calm, and she felt that these quiet eyes were still a little different from the past. The difference is that his eyes are like the same calm and waveless lake, but today it is the calm of spring water, and the usual calm of ice water.
As soon as Cheng Haofeng approached, everyone in Hongbin Building greeted him, and after he greeted everyone, he said to Hu Xianxian: "Miss Hu, can you go to the lobby to talk?" The poor road has something to consult with you. ”
Hu Xianxian didn't answer, and went straight into the house and sat down. Cheng Haofeng also entered the house and sat down, and everyone followed.
Cheng Haofeng said that Hu Shoubei had broken through Panlong Village in Jingrongling, Zheng Tianba and Ye Guanying, brothers and sisters, accepted Zhao'an, and Gao Youbiao fled elsewhere under the protection of She Rimang.
Hu Xianxian's gaze swept lightly on his face: "Zhao'an of Panlong Village has been planned for a long time, and it is of course gratifying to be able to realize it now." It's just that it doesn't have much to do with me, so what are you coming to me to discuss? ”
Cheng Haofeng looked at the people in Hongbin Building, and then said to Hu Xianxian: "The origin of that She Rimang is very complicated, and it is necessary to find out who is behind him. Poor Dao wants to go to the foot of Qinglong Mountain to live in seclusion, and this trip is to invite Miss Hu to go with me. ”
Hu Xianxian had a lot of thoughts in his heart and did not answer. His bun is high, and there are no patterns on his light blue robe, but his simple makeup implies a bearing that cannot be ignored. Hu Xianxian wanted to obey his arrangement, but he was also a little afraid of his arrangement.
Aunt Hu was the first to refuse: "No! My daughter can't go with you to live in the mountains! ”
Cheng Haofeng wanted to say more, but Gui Chongxu suddenly appeared. He may have been in too much of a hurry, wandering around the ground before coming to a halt after several laps.
Gui Chongxu's sudden appearance made everyone dumbfounded, and Hu Xianxian asked him with concern: "Uncle Gui, what's wrong with you?" ”
Gui Chongxu grabbed her with one hand and Cheng Haofeng with the other: "Go!" There's no time for nonsense. Ma Zhenren asked me to come to you to save Qin Zhenren. ”
