I lay on the bed, reached out to put out the light in the room, and closed my eyes again.

The next morning, after a brief breakfast, we set off for the place where the festival was held. By the time we arrived at the two-story ancestral hall, many of the residents had already arrived before us, and some of them looked tired, as if they had been keeping watch all night.

"Look! it's Jiu'er coming!" Suddenly, someone shouted.

Suddenly, almost everyone looked in the direction where we were, the peaceful scene was broken in an instant, and a lot of commotion broke out in this place because of Jiu'er's arrival, and countless eyes shot towards Jiu'er like sharp blades, but the strange thing is that none of these eyes were mixed with schadenfreude, on the contrary, most of the people looked at Jiu'er with a color of envy and admiration.

According to the instructions of the magnates at the party last night, Jiu'er was to sit on a specially set chair in the center of the second floor of the old ancestral hall, and I looked towards the center of the second floor of the old ancestral hall, and sure enough, a chair with a strange shape had been placed there.

It was a tall chair made of iron, with ancient patterns engraved around the chair, for some reason, on the left and right armrests of the chair, there was a faint layer of red blood, and the red light extended to the side, all the way to the back of the chair, and at the upper end of the chair, a huge beast head was carved, giving people a sense of evil spirit.

Looking up from below, it looks like a special chair for a foreign princess in a movie.

Jiu'er's face was not flustered, she looked straight ahead, and slowly walked towards the second floor, and the residents in front of her hurriedly dispersed to both sides, spontaneously making way for Jiu'er to make a wide road.

Liu Qian wanted to follow her daughter to the second floor all the time, but she was pulled by me without a trace: "Let her go up alone, and we will stay here." ”

"But ......"

I intercepted Jiu'er's mother's unspoken words: "If you don't want her to have any accidents today, just do what I say." ”

Seeing me say this, Liu Qian could only nod reluctantly, walked to Zhao Bing's side with a worried face, and looked closely at her daughter's back with her eyes.

Qing Yunzi and Cheng Qian did not appear here at this festival, of course, this is also part of the plan, I secretly thought, Qing Yunzi is steady, and he and Cheng Qian should have successfully completed the planned deployment at this time.

Thinking so, I looked up to search for Jiu'er this time, she had already come to the chair, not far from the chair, there was a set of red robes hanging, Jiu'er slowly came to the hanger, reached out to take off the red robe and put it on her body, after putting it on, she slowly came to the chair and sat down.

The material of the red robe worn on Jiu'er's body looks very special, not like ordinary fabric, and there are colorful circles painted on it, which makes Jiu'er sitting on the high chair look indescribably amazing.

Seeing this scene, the residents standing below immediately became a little agitated, and they exchanged heads and ears to the people next to them one by one, and as time went by, more and more residents came to this place, and the voices became more noisy, and this annual event made them in high spirits, and they all seemed to be very excited.

Jiu'er sat on the high chair and watched the crowd below, her face still looked calm, but her hands were tightly gripping the armrests, and her body was stiff and motionless for a long time, I knew that Jiu'er's heart was not as calm as she appeared at this time.

"Kwon has arrived!"

Suddenly, an unusually thick voice came from nowhere, and this voice overshadowed all the sound waves with an absolute momentum, making the originally noisy environment instantly quiet.

Like all the residents here, I turned my head to look at the source of the sound, and saw several men carrying a palanquin towards the ancestral hall, and the curtain of the palanquin was gently lifted from the inside, and then I saw the powerful people poking their heads out with indifferent expressions.

In addition to the man carrying the sedan chair, there was an old man and a young woman, who stood on the left and right sides of the sedan chair, and on the left was the old man, who held a wooden scepter in his right hand,* and wore his upper body, revealing his bronzed skin, although he did not show any expression on his face, but from the way he walked gave people a sense of arrogance and conceit.

The woman on the right has a good face, but her lips are very thin, giving people a feeling that she is not close to, she is wearing a tight-fitting trench coat and slowly follows the sedan chair.

"Who are these two people?" I had some doubts in my heart, Jiu'er had told us about the festival in detail in the past two days, but she hadn't mentioned these two people at all, looking at these two people, I suddenly felt a little uneasy in my heart, afraid that there would be some accidents because of them.

I thought Jiu'er should have seen it too, so I looked up at her, only to see Jiu'er looking at the sedan chair, but her face became very pale for some reason, and I could see a sense of uneasiness in her big eyes.

It seems that Jiu'er didn't expect the two who suddenly appeared, and judging from Jiu'er's performance, it seems that these two mysterious characters are not simple.

I turned my head to look at the sedan chair, only to see the four sedan chair men stop at the door of the first floor of the ancestral hall, and then quickly retreated, then the woman in the windbreaker stepped forward and opened the curtain of the sedan chair with her hand, and said in a respectful voice: "It's here, Lord Quan." ”

"Well," the magnates nodded lightly and got out of the sedan chair, "Let's go, let's go to the second floor." ”

The old man and the woman in the trench coat on the side nodded, and stepped on the stairs leading to the second floor with the powerful people. Perhaps because of the festival, the powerful people today are wearing very heroic clothes.

I kept my eyes on the exit on the second floor, watching the progress of the situation at any time. After a while, the three of them appeared next to Jiu'er, and the magnates first said something to Jiu'er, because the distance was a little far, I couldn't hear what they were saying, but Jiu'er didn't pay attention to him.

The magnates didn't seem to pay much attention, he turned his head and nodded to the old man beside him, who seemed to understand what he meant, stepped forward a few steps, and said loudly to the residents below, "The festival begins." Suddenly, the crowd below boiled.

After the old man finished speaking, he walked to Jiu'er's side, then closed his eyes, and at the same time whispered something in his mouth, just like this, after a minute or two, the old man suddenly opened his eyes, stretched his palm upward, raised it high above his head, and shouted: "Now!"

With the old man's loud shouts, I saw the air in front of him shaking violently, and soon, a palm-sized fireball appeared out of thin air, seeing the fireball appear, the old man hurriedly waved his scepter and catalyzed the fireball, and under his catalysis, it didn't take long for the fireball to grow in size little by little.
