Chapter 150: The Wedding (I)

Lush woods on both sides, with a secluded middle road in between.

The Houtu Temple was built in the eighteenth year of Dongyang, and it has been eight hundred years so far.

This Houtu Temple is already one of the main temples of the Houtu system in the province, covering an area of 5,000 square meters, and the Houtu Temple is the core of the entire building.

The surrounding trees are 80,000 trees, which resemble a sea of forests that isolate the surrounding city.

This Houtu Temple, which is only a place for the Houtu priests to study and practice, is full of elegant and simple atmosphere, and is generally not open to the public, but at this time, the door is opened.

Fang Xin's wedding, due to the particularity of the fifth order, was a rather ancient ceremony, and the front and back were permeated with a quaint taste.

Lin Yanran came in the morning, and on this day, the sun was shining.

When she arrived at her destination, she was a little surprised, although she only worked in the school and didn't pay much attention to foreign affairs, she also knew that this temple would not be opened when she was idle.

"This lady, are you here to watch the ceremony?" Someone said politely.

"Yes, I am!"

"Then please come in!" The man was politely introduced.

Imperial buildings, water and land corresponding, although a small back earthen hall, there are also small lakes, but of course this small lake, only half an acre square, a blue road, into hundreds of steps, straight into the inner hall.

The road of bluestone, the two roads are planted with some ruel pine cinnamon, upward, shallow corridor, but the ninth step, to the inside, but see both sides, there is already a tea table, there are more than 20 people inside, each has a different posture, between the words, it is also very soft, and there is no noise.

Inside, everyone looked over, Lin Yanran felt the solemn pressure rushing towards her, and only then did she see someone beckoning, and when she looked, it was Hu Zhuzhu, and she hurriedly stepped forward.

"Pearl, you're here too?" Lin Yanran sat in front of her, this was a rattan chair, and she whispered unconsciously.

"Well, it's already here, do you want to see the groom today?" Hu Pearl asked.

"Oh, is he already here? Why don't you come out to greet you? Lin Yanran said very strangely.

"Shhhhh Hu Pearl took her hand, and the two walked inside, all the way without hindrance, through the corridor and courtyard, to an inner hall.

The door was not closed, just the air, the nose was already fragrant, comfortable, a piece of clear light poured in, at first Lin Yanran didn't think so, but when she looked up, she was taken aback - Fang Xin was dressed in white, hanging the curtain on his knees, sitting on a futon, and on his body, the three-foot transparent light emitted a **.

Lin Yanran almost thought that she was hallucinating, and couldn't help but rub her eyes, this was indeed a real brilliance, emanating from Fang Xin's body.

It is bright and beautiful, clear as promised, gushing and responding according to a certain melody, and the illusion is a light wave, like glass, and it is surging all the time.

"It's ......," she couldn't help but say.

"Shhhh Hu Pearl pulled her out of the door, and when she got outside, she complained and said, "Teacher, why don't you know?" ”

"You know what, what's in here?" Lin Yanran was still surprised, which made Hu Pearl a little dizzy, and after a while, she realized that she really didn't know, so she said with some amusement: "Does the teacher never care about cultivation?" ”

Thinking about it, this Lin Yanran can barely be regarded as a second-order cultivation, but she may not concentrate on cultivation, and she said carefully, and after a while, she understood, and muttered: "I have indeed seen the description of the fifth order, but I always feel a little vain, so I didn't care, I didn't think it was true." ”

"I was also surprised at first, I didn't expect him to reach the fifth order!" Hu Zhuzhu's face was full of joy, but it was for Xia Yubing, with this promise, Xia Yubing had a lot of vitality.

The two of them had their own thoughts, walked back to the front and continued to wait, Lin Yanran was shocked, and then looked at the guests, and indeed saw a few familiar faces, not feeling it for a while, thinking about it carefully, but there were a few big people who often appeared in the media, and they also met the parents of the second side.

After drinking tea slowly, and after waiting for another half an hour, there was the sound of horses' hooves and a few horns outside.

And the people present greeted them, and when they came to the door, they saw four riders in front of them, four riders behind, and another carriage coming.

"Mingguang Armor Ride!" Lin Yanran is a teacher, but she knows this knowledge, and she was immediately taken aback.

I saw these eight horses, under the morning sun, reflecting a gorgeous light, before and after the armor, polished like a mirror, the sun's irradiation, will emit a dazzling "bright light", so it is named.

The helmet, neck guards, ear guards, body armor, knee skirt, and shawl have two layers in the shape of a tiger's head.

Over the ages, although the people have forbidden swords, they have banned armor and bows and arrows, and those who have hidden weapons have been sentenced to one and a half years. More according to the law, etc.!

Therefore, in the past dynasties, there were still nobles who had a certain limited number of Mingguang armor horses, could it be that Fang Xin married a noble woman? Lin Yanran thought so.

The music of this temple is the sound of bells and drums, deep and surging like the heavens and the sea, and the resonance of the opposite, and full of pure melody, like the resonance of nature.

As the team approached, in the melody, Fang Xin changed into a groom's red clothes, and finally appeared in front of everyone.

The knight turned over and dismounted, straightened up, his bright armor was gorgeous and shiny, and his hand pressed the traditional long sword.

Without any dowry, Fang Xin opened the door, stretched out his hand, and took Xiao Bing's hand, and Xiao Bing came out in his wedding dress.

When they arrived at the door, the two of them walked together, and when they entered, everyone was divided on both sides.

As he stepped up the steps, he saw the holy light pouring down from the Houtu Temple, gushing out like a spring.

Fang Xin was not moved in the slightest, it seemed that everything was expected, Xiao Bing only tightened his hands, and his expression was not different.

One step, two steps, three steps...... Until the nine steps up the stairs, enter the Houtu Temple, and on the Houtu altar, the holy light is like a spring, emptying and flowing out, like a source of immortality.

The presiding priest did not seem to be moved, he did not care about the surprise and discoloration of the guests below, but said: "In the name of the goddess of the earth of the most benevolent, to witness your marriage, do you have any different intentions?" ”

Fang Xin and Xiao Bing had no different intentions.

It's just that involuntarily, Fang Xin remembered the wedding of Mei Changtian and Li Mei back then.

If we talk about divine grace, the two of them are naturally far above them at this time, but when it comes to the essence of marriage, it is not as good as the wedding of Mei Changtian and Li Mei.

Fang Xin and Xiao Bing are just a simple wedding ceremony, but the wedding of Mei Changtian and Li Mei is the most essential combination.

Validating each other with love, and then using love as a bridge, connecting the same qi and branches, honoring and disgrace, and working together with the son, so that the two blessings and misfortunes can be combined into one, this is in essence the highest ceremony.

But for Fang Xin and Xiao Bing, it is impossible to hold this kind of ceremony, many things cannot be shared, and relatives are no exception, so Taoists have no relatives.

"Houtu is the six ways, the practice of great compassion and great mercy, great compassion is life and death, great mercy is love, today in the name of love, Houtu witnesses, you and the two become husband and wife, and the ceremony is completed!" The presiding priest said this, and suddenly, a holy light like spring water fell directly on the two of them.

Then, the holy light, which is visible to the naked eye, disappears, and the ancient music plays.

It was a very brief ceremony, but it was very suitable for Fang Xin's current status, and at this time, the people who watched the ceremony let out laughter and celebrations, and stepped forward one by one.

The two who became husband and wife greeted the guests one by one, especially the elders and relatives of the two sides.

At this time, the host of the Fang family, Fang Shengxue, also came, this was a middle-aged man, Fang Xin took Xiao Bing and greeted him lightly, so he didn't have much to say.

Then came the feast, but the feast was made by the local temple itself.

The place of the banquet was in a small hall, facing the man-made lake, and entered by a small wooden bridge, and above the hall, there were thirty seats, which was just enough to accommodate hundreds of guests.

The title of the song "Haruka" is also played by itself, and this kind of music is also very suitable for the current scene at this time.

When it comes to the banquet, first serve refreshments, then serve food, four-style dim sum, and pour aperitif ice leaf wine.

Twenty minutes later, the main meal is served, with eight dishes, namely stew, roast, and fresh seafood, among which the bride and groom congratulate the guests with wine, especially the two parents.

After an hour, the tail dish is served, mostly refreshing things, the feast of the Houtu Temple of this era, not taboo meat, because in doctrine, when human beings have not yet reached the time when they can survive by absorbing the sun and the moon, eating animals and plants are useless, but after all, it is a temple banquet, and the taste is light, although so, all the guests are very satisfied.

For this kind of temple banquet, few people can make the 800-year-old Houtu Shrine specialize, especially the Houtu Manifestation, and many people have re-evaluated the relationship between Fang Xin and Houtu.
