Chapter 44: The Fox Wedding
The day before the wedding, Tu Shanyue took Xing'er to a dangerous peak in Qingqiu Mountain to see the scenery.
After playing for most of the day, Xing'er felt thirsty, Tu Shanyue asked Xing'er to wait under the tree, and he went to pick wild fruits to quench Xing'er's thirst.
While waiting, Xing'er was bored and walked around the tree, when suddenly, a cold wind blew.
A wolf-like monster with a green face and fangs sprang out from behind a tree.
Xing'er broke out in a cold sweat.
The monster bared its teeth and stared at Xing'er who stood still, salivating.
Xing'er tried to escape, but before she could turn around, the monster pounced.
Xing'er instinctively raised her hand to block it.
The fangs of the wolf-shaped monster were about to bite Xing'er's arm, and the moon spirit bead in the colorful bracelet on his wrist suddenly appeared with a dazzling white light.
The vicious wolf-like monster took two steps back in fright.
Xing'er closed his eyes and waited for a long time, but there was no expected pain in his arm being bitten by the beast, but there was a burst of "fluttering" breathing sound beside him.
Xing'er lowered her hand and opened her eyes, seeing the wolf-like monster from before crouching at her feet, sniffing her scent.
The wolf-like monster disappeared from its hostility, and now it resembled a docile dog.
It sniffed around Xing'er, its fierce eyes becoming suspicious, and after a while, it burrowed into the surrounding dense forest and disappeared without a trace, leaving Xing'er alone in place.
A frightened, Xing'er covered her throbbing chest, and it took a while to stabilize her mind and sigh: "Isn't Qingqiu an immortal town, how can there be such a monster?"
Xing'er looked at the moon spirit bead on her wrist where the white light gradually weakened, and thought: It should be this bracelet that Xianggong gave me to scare away the monster.
Tu Shanyue quickly went and returned, holding two washed peaches in her hands, and when she saw Xing'er standing under the tree, her face was pale, and she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Lady, what happened during the time I left?"
"There was a wolf-like monster that suddenly appeared and then ran away. ”
"Wolf-shaped monster? That's a wolf demon that has been cultivating for more than eight hundred years, and it's almost faded from its demon bones and cultivated into an immortal body recently. ”
"He looked so scary, he wanted to eat me, but then the colorful bracelet suddenly glowed white, and he was scared away. ”
"Fortunately, I brought you a colorful bracelet in advance, and the moon spirit bead on it has my breath, and all the creatures in Qingqiu will avoid it when they see it. ”
Xing'er stroked the white moon spirit bead on the bracelet, and her tentacles were warm, "I didn't expect this moon spirit bead to be so powerful." ”
"It's not that the Moon Spirit Bead is powerful, it's your father-in-law who is powerful. "It's rare for Tu Shanyue to speak inappropriately.
Xing'er chuckled, and the frightened mood just now completely calmed down, "Why did you go for so long just now?"
"Heavenly Court sent someone to congratulate me, and I went to receive a congratulatory gift. Tu Shanyue said that the wind was light and light.
"Heavenly Court?Qingqiu still has a connection with Heavenly Court?"
"The successive patriarchs of the fox clan in Qingqiu have another title - 'Fox Emperor', one of the Five Heavenly Emperors. ”
"Heavenly Emperor of the Five Directions?" Xing'er was not clear about these levels of the immortal realm, and was curious about everything Tu Shanyue said.
"Generally speaking, the Heavenly Emperor of the Five Directions is the five powerful gods in charge of the immortal realm, and one of the Heavenly Emperors whose true body is the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox is the Fox Emperor, that is, the patriarch of the fox clan in Qingqiu. ”
"That's amazing!"
Xing'er felt more and more that the identity and background of the person she married was too powerful, so instead of being happy, she was very worried, "Xianggong, is it really okay for you to marry a mortal with such a background of the Protoss?"
"What's the problem?"
"In the mortal world, everyone pays attention to the right people, and the same is true of the fairy world, right?"
Tu Shanyue hugged Xing'er into her arms and comforted: "The wedding card for our big wedding has been sent to all over the world, and it's too late for you to regret it now." ”
"I don't regret it, it's the luckiest thing in my life to meet you and marry you. ”
——
On the day of the wedding.
The altar of the fox clan on the top of Qingqiu Mountain has become the place where Tu Shanyue and Xing'er held their weddings.
The elves and gods and monsters who came to congratulate from all over the world crowded the top of Qingqiu Mountain.
The person who presided over the wedding was the oldest Elder Shui of the fox clan, with white beard and white hair, and solemn eyebrows and kind eyes.
Early in the morning, there was a light rain in Qingqiu.
After a light rain, a rainbow appeared in the sky.
The creatures who attended the wedding said it was a good omen.
Tu Shanyue and Xing'er appeared on the altar wedding in red wedding dresses.
The wedding of the fox clan is generally similar to the wedding in the world, worshipping heaven and worshipping parents, and there is one more link in it - blood love.
Elder Shui used the fox clan magic weapon to cut the fingers of Tu Shanyue and Xing'er, and the blood of the two people dripped into the moonlight cup of the fox clan's altar, and the blood droplets fused, and then fused with the clear elixir in the moonlight cup, and the slurry turned blood red.
Elder Shui handed the moonlight cup to Tu Shanyue first, Tu Shanyue took a sip, and then handed it to Xing'er, who took a sip, sweet and bitter, with a slight taste of blood.
Tu Shanyue had told Xing'er about the wedding process before, and now the two of them are drinking the nectar of a fox flower that only grows in Qingqiu, adding blood to the honey, which has the meaning of eternal union and life and death.
After going through the wedding process, Xing'er was sent into the new house in the fox hole, while Tu Shanyue greeted the guests outside.
The new house is Tu Shanyue's former bedroom, which has been decorated and turned into a new house full of joy.
Xing'er covered her red hijab and sat quietly in the room, listening to the noise outside, sweet in her heart, but it felt unreal.
Suddenly, the noise outside died down.
Xing'er didn't know what was going on, so she lifted the red hijab, but saw the patriarch's wife walking into the new house alone.
"Mother?!"
Xing'er stood up and saluted the patriarch's wife, and at the same time wondered in her heart: Why did you wait for your mother-in-law on the wedding night?
The patriarch's wife can read minds, knows what Xing'er is thinking, and directly answers Xing'er's questions, "Yue'er doesn't know that I'm coming, I have laid an enchantment outside the new house, and people outside won't know that I've come." What I'll tell you next, I hope you don't tell Yue'er. ”
Mother-in-law's request, Xing'er was full of promises.
The patriarch's wife beckoned Xing'er to sit down at the table and began to tell the story related to Tu Shanyue.
Twenty-one years ago, the Protoss was fighting with the demons, and although they finally defeated the demons, the patriarch's wife was injured in the battle, and when she returned to Qingqiu to heal, she found that she was several months pregnant.
Because of the injury, the fetal image is unstable, and after using a large number of tocolytic drugs, the situation still does not improve.
Tu Shanyue was born prematurely into the world, and he was born without a heart.
The patriarch and his wife love their sons, and use the fox clan's holy treasure "Yuehua Stone" to maintain Tu Shanyue's life.
The Yuehua Stone is in Tu Shanyue's body, which can maintain his lifespan for twenty years.
Twenty years later, Yuehuashi will lose its power, and Tu Shanyue's life will come to an end.
When the patriarch's wife said this, she deliberately stopped to see Xing'er's reaction.
Xing'er's face was already bloodless, took the hand of the patriarch's wife, and asked, "Mother, Xianggong looks healthy, what you just said is just a story, right?"
"What I said is true, you have married Yue'er, you are the closest person to him, and you usually don't find out that he has heartache?"
"Xianggong has a heartache, but he has only had a few attacks, and Xianggong said that it was because he was too tired. ”
The patriarch's wife sighed, "The heartache is because the spiritual power of Yuehua Stone is gradually weakening, and when Yue'er is twenty years old, Yuehua Stone will completely lose its spiritual power, and Yue'er will ...... by then."
