Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Snow Clears

It is a little different from the coldness of Linfu, but the other four mansions are brilliantly lit, and the sound of fireworks is endless, and it is already night, but because of the cold winter wax moon, the city that should be shrouded in night is hazy, like a thin veil covering, which looks a little intoxicating.

Occasionally, a snowflake fell in the sky, but before it was half air, it was melted by the brilliance of the fireworks that burst into the sky, accompanied by a string of laughter like silver bells, and a group of young girls cheering and chasing after it.

Tianxiang House.

Maids in groups, or holding melons and fruits, or carrying incense burners, have walked towards the attic, the weather in the wax moon, in the night is the coldest, but in the Tianxiang Mansion is not such a feeling, a long corridor across a warm pool, there is spring water in the warm pool, the slightest heat to the surroundings, dissipate the cold, vaguely can also see runes emerging in the pool, if there is a formation wet again, must be shocked, this is a formation arranged by a great magical power, pull the heat emitted by the earth fire under the surface of thousands of zhang, and condense it in the pool to take heat, by eating to dissipate heat, so it will not feel cold or hot。

At this time, on the highest floor of this pavilion, there is a group of beautiful mountain maids surrounding the two ladies, a group of people are gathered together, talking to each other, but everyone's face is with a smile, but the difference is that several of the girls are wearing extremely eye-catching, the women of Tianxiang Mansion are mainly white, and only in special etiquette will they wear red, and today there are eight women wearing red clothes, sitting quietly on the side of the two women. "Sister, the daughters of your Tianxiang Mansion are so powerful, they have compared us all. A lady in purple clothes spoke, her words were a little unconvinced, but the corners of her mouth were smiling, and she looked at the woman in white in front of her with a smile. "Sister, where are you talking, you and I are from the same place, with the same root and origin, why were you teased by my sister. The woman in white shook her head and smiled, a little crying and laughing. "Aunt Hong, a few sisters are the ones who make us envious, they are more than capable of advancing and retreating in the hands of thousands of murderers, but it is our sisters who have dragged our sisters back, and let our sisters protect us. A young girl behind the woman in white spoke softly, her eyes bright, and she said crisply. "You, you know how to put gold on our faces, those who know the truth know that you are joking, and those who don't know still think that we are brave, is it possible that my sister bullied us in the mountains. “

A girl in red walked out from behind the woman in purple, arguing with the girl, and her momentum was not weak.

The rest of the people also stopped whispering at this time, and instead looked this way, and it was obvious that the words of several people aroused everyone's interest.

"Well, it's all a family, let's all eat, it's a celebration for your daughters. After a while, a large table was set up, and at the signal of the white woman, a group of maids took their seats, and their eyes were much brighter when they looked at the table of delicacies.

"Glutton, eat. The two women smiled bitterly when they saw this, and with a wave of their hands they went out of the attic, and when they were not far away, there was a burst of laughter in the room.

"It's so good, sister. ”

"yes, do you regret leaving the village? ”

"Maybe. ”

"Go back and see, the old man misses you a lot. ”

"Good. ”

Lee House.

"Dad, why aren't you outside, come here?" a young man in white spoke, but it was Li Yun.

A middle-aged man choked to death in white, his appearance was somewhat similar to Li Yun, but it was full of majesty, Li Yun was a little restrained in front of him, at this time, this man saw Li Yun like this, and sighed in his heart.

"Yun'er, have you ever blamed your father. Somehow, the middle-aged man suddenly said this, which made Li Yun a little overwhelmed.

"Brother Feng, why are you talking about this, you are not doing this for Yun'er, Yun'er will understand, right, Yun'er. A woman of thirty gave the middle-aged man a blank look, and then lovingly tidied up the cuffs of her child.

"What my mother said is reasonable, father, I didn't blame you, it was Yun'er who was ignorant before, so my father worried about it. Li Yun said to his father, Li Yun at this time was not as calm as before, but a good child in front of his parents.

"Go to the academy and take care of your brother. The middle-aged man seemed to have thought of something and instructed Li Yun.

"Yes, father. ”

"Hmm. ”

Wang fu.

Under an old tree, there is a thick layer of fallen leaves, the heavy snow weather has not covered these fallen leaves, and there is no one to sweep these fallen leaves, almost the fallen leaves of the entire old tree are here, at this time, a somewhat lonely teenager, standing on these fallen leaves, looking at the old tree overhead, did not move for a long time.

There are many branches of the old tree, and the thin branches cover every inch of the skin of the old tree, but the more this is the case, the more it seems that the old tree has been in existence for a long time.

In the distance, a woman of about forty years old stood under the eaves, looking at the figure of her child, and the woman could not help but sigh softly.

The young man seemed to be aware of it, and his body moved slightly, but he didn't look back, but silently operated his cultivation, evaporating the splash in his eyes. "Mother. “

After a while, the boy turned his head and looked at his biological mother under the eaves, but his eyes were a little evasive. "Child, your Uncle Yuan will be happy for you. The woman came over, the corners of her skirt swayed, her face was a little pale, and there were some crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, but this made the woman more calm and charming, and when the years deprived her of her youth and beauty, it also left her something special.

"Well, my mother should also take care of herself, and I will be back. The boy spoke, and the thought that he was about to leave his mother made his heart a little sour.

"This child, don't worry about your mother when you go outside, and don't blame your father, he also has a hard time about your Uncle Yuan. The woman continued, but the young man's face was complicated when he heard the father and son.

"Mother, has the banquet begun?" the teenager should continue the topic.

"My mother is here to look for you, go, there are a few people in the mansion, and it is also a matter of pleasure. The woman sighed inwardly, but smiled and spoke.

Then, the young man walked out of his yard with his mother, and after a long time, only the breeze blew through here, sweeping away a few leaves, and the young man was Wang Yuan, the only young man in the younger generation of the Wang family who had cultivated into the pupil of the Heavenly King.

In addition, in the city of broken incense, all the restaurants are crowded, except for the four mansions, the rest are the ethnic groups that have come out of the great wilderness, therefore, the living and traveling can only be in the inn restaurant, and the little baby of his own family has more or less entered the Tianyun Academy, which naturally earns face for the clan, so a celebration is also indispensable, but fortunately, at least one person in several ethnic groups has entered it, and there is no situation where none of the existing ethnic groups have entered, although some ethnic groups are not dominant in number, but it does not hinder the interest of the older generation。

However, a few families are happy and a few are sad, but in a restaurant, the atmosphere is a little strange.

This restaurant was wrapped up by the Thunder Clan, the Bone Clan, and the Fire Clan, although it is said to be three clans, but there are a lot of admitting defeat, there are more than 100 people, of which the Bone Clan has four teenagers into it, the Thunder Clan has three, and the Fire Clan has only two, but the number of Fire Clan is small, so the two places are also very good.

And it seems that the Fire Clan and the Thunder Clan have an older generation to know, therefore, the people of the Fire Clan and the Thunder Clan simply celebrated together, which is naturally very happy for the younger generation, and after some contact, they also knew seventy-seven eighty-eight, and even called them brothers, the older generation saw the natural stroking with their hands, and nodded again and again, among them, several teenagers who entered the Tianyun Academy sat together, discussing supernatural powers together, confirming each other's Taoism, or mentioning the mystery in the depths of the Great Wilderness, everyone was happy.

On the other hand, the Bone Clan was dull and silent, and occasionally when a teenager looked at the Thunder Clan Fire Clan, he would immediately be warned by his peers, because the faces of the older generation were extremely gloomy, and the Bone Spirit and Gu Yi and the other two teenagers who entered Tianyun Academy were eager to hide their heads, as if it was an incomparable shame to enter Tianyun Academy.

Of course, this is not the reason, if the name of the wood is here, it will be clear at a glance, because it is closely related to the name of the wood, without him, the ancestral treasure of the people will be swallowed, can people not be depressed.

"What's going on, the people of the Bone Clan have nightmares like dead fathers and mothers. "In the banquet where the Thunder Clan Fire Clan is located, there are young people who are puzzled, they are full of joy on their side, and they are indeed mourning over there.

A few teenagers and children are unscrupulous, although the voice is not loud, but some people in the bone clan naturally hear it, and after hearing it, it is called depressed, and they shouted in their hearts, can you still laugh if you lose your treasure?

"Pheas. There was a loud bang, but an old man in a skull robe smashed a corner of the table with one palm, and two angry eyes crushed with a thick coercion, and the teenagers suddenly felt a tightness in their chests, as if they had been hit by a giant hammer, and their faces turned pale.

"Hmph. One of the masters of the Thunder Clan snorted coldly, and the invisible actually emanated, and immediately blocked the coercion.

"Bullying the small with the big, can't you fail the clan rules of the Bone Clan?" A flame soared into the air, exuding a coercion that was not weak with the old man of the Bone Clan, and blocked its momentum back.

"Seventh, forget it, don't scare the children. An old voice came out, and the coercion emanating from the Thunder Clan Fire Clan disappeared into invisibility, and the two of them were also white, and their faces were a little solemn, but after the old voice came out, the tense atmosphere in the restaurant disappeared and returned to its previous appearance.

"Big brother. The old man named Lao Qi was displeased, but after seeing the eldest brother glaring, he stopped attacking.

However, a pair of eyes were staring fiercely at the Thunder and Fire Clan.

After such a trouble, the atmosphere of the feast is a little less lively, but for a kind of teenager is not the same, a fight, even a few driven, began to push the cup to change the lamp, at first I was worried that my own elders did not agree, but seeing the elders turned a blind eye, everyone was even more unscrupulous, and finally everyone's face was a little more red, for a time red light, there are many people who are obviously the first time to contact these things, some excited and some excited, unconsciously a little fluttering.

"We're getting old, and so are the kids. An old man in the Fire Clan stroked his long fiery red beard, and then proudly touched a glass with his little baby, the little baby was not shy, probably because of the smell of wine, and even called the old man to have another cup, the old man couldn't cry and laugh, the old man of the Fire was what the Fire Clan people called him, but he didn't blame him, and they toasted again and again, and he was very arrogant.

However, this scene fell in the eyes of the bone clan is extremely dazzling, there are many people who want to attack, but they are all stopped, they have to cast a resentful gaze on the bone spirit bone a few people, but the most depressed of them is the latter, at this time the nose is blue and swollen, and he woke up soon after being teleported over, but he was also confused, and he didn't even know that it happened, only vaguely remembered that he had a dream, in the dream he was like drunk, stumbled, and woke up to find that his head was full of horns, and several bags appeared on his forehead。

Not to mention here, in addition to the strange atmosphere of this restaurant, the other restaurants and inns are full of joy.

Since the children of all ethnic groups will practice the Tao in the same place in the future, the older generations of all ethnic groups are friendly and friends, and they are deep in the wilderness together, so they can be regarded as half a fellow countryman, and the fire clan and thunder clan are in general, the young and the young get along, the older and the older talk, in short, they all get along happily.

In another restaurant, the situation is a bit special, because the creatures on this table are people, to be precise, there are some spirits, so this banquet looks a little strange, but everyone seems to care.

Seven Kills was also among them, his face was slightly red, he was holding a wine jar in his hand, grinning widely, and looking at a little pig in front of him with a smile.

"I said, are you really a spirit, how do you look like other pigs? ”

Seven Kills drank to himself, not noticing that the little pig's face was already blue.

"You little baby, how many times has the old man told you, the old man is a divine beast, not a pig. With that, the two hooves poured a bowl of wine into their mouths, but the little pig's hooves were not large, so it looked a little funny.

"Isn't it just a pig? A young man beside Seven Kills spoke, but it was the Six Monkeys, the Six Monkeys were not high, but they insisted until the end in the second floor of the pavilion, and it was not that they appeared on the altar where there was the protection of cyan mist, but that they persisted in the bone domain until the end, and the Seven Kills were also puzzled, because with the strength of the Seven Kills, they also felt hard in the group of fierce beasts, but the Six Monkeys said that those fierce beasts did not attack him, and even took the initiative to give way to him.

"Boy, although the form of our spirit clan is similar to some fierce beasts, there is a big difference, those fierce beasts are not nine-trick creatures, and we are indeed different. "A black stone pressed against a jar of wine, and then there was a shock, and the wine in the jar scattered, but it was swallowed up by a few small holes in the stone, which looked a little strange.

"Hey, it's such a black stone, why is it so much like the flint in our village. "There was a boy with a misty look in his eyes, and then he came over and patted the black stone.

"Haha" all said that the child's words were unscrupulous, and the child's words caused everyone to laugh for a while, and the loudest laugh was none other than the tengu, in addition, a snake spit out the snake letter, which made people a little frightened.

When the black stone heard the sound, it trembled again and again, and it was obviously angry, but it was also depressed in his heart, because the black head was channeled out of a volcanic crater, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it was a flint.

In the attic on the second floor of this restaurant, there are a few people sitting quietly, and the wine and food in front of them are not moving, but there are some traces of the wine jug in the glass.

"Mr. Hu, is this the stubborn stone?" asked an old man with a graying beard, his eyes seeming to see through the floor to the black stone.

"Yes, but not out of the body yet, and the mind is like a child's. A gourd in front of the old man trembled slightly, and a sound came from the gourd on the tree.

"That child is a six monkeys, and he has the bloodline of the Ape King in his body, but strangely, the bloodline is not thin, but there are signs of atavism. "A peach tree next to the old gourd opened, and some of the peaches on the tree were already silver, and there was a fragrant smell, which made people smell it clearly.

"The eyesight is good, you can see it. The old man who spoke before squinted his eyes slightly and smiled, this person is the clan elder of the Seven Killings, and he has protected a few people all the way.

When you are young, it is always easy to forget your troubles, and a large part of them have been eliminated in this selection, and they were extremely troubled at first, but as the feast progressed, many people have forgotten their previous unhappiness, and they secretly made up their minds in their hearts, hoping that they could enter the next selection.

However, these outside world situations Mu Ming does not know, and there is no need to know, at this time, Mu Ming's little monk and the head of the Lin family are sitting in a pavilion, the pavilion is built in the water, but at this time the water surface has been frozen, and it is covered by snow, making this pavilion a little abrupt, only a white world to set off.

"Come, you don't have to be restrained, just like Fang'er. With a smile on his face, the head of the Lin family looked at a few people and smiled, and then raised the cup in his hand.

The little monk Muming did not have the initial restraint, raised his wine glasses one after another, and then drank it all.

With a mouthful of lilac liquid into his throat, Kiona only felt a burst of spiciness, but after a while, the spicy taste disappeared, and a cool taste spread throughout his body, and the pores of his whole body were dilated, indescribably comfortable, but his body was not cold, but there was warmth.

"What kind of wine is this, and how is it different from what I used to drink secretly. The little monk's eyes lit up, and he only felt that his cultivation had faintly made a breakthrough, and he was shocked in his heart.

"Haha all say that Buddhist monks are strict, but when it comes to you, it is an exception. The head of the Lin family replied with a smile.

"You can't blame me for this, my master said that the lamp oil was not good, so he took me to drink Buddha wine secretly. The little monk disagreed, and then drank another cup himself.

"There is still Buddha wine in the Buddha Gate?" Lin Fang was puzzled, her eyes trembled slightly, and her eyelashes were like spirituality.

Kinama is also curious, how can Buddhism have wine.

"It's not wine, but the dew collected by Buddhism, the grass and trees on the Buddha Mountain are shrouded in the Buddhist scriptures every day, over time, the dew from the plants and trees will have a trace of Buddha nature, the original red dust of the Buddha people, only because the six are not pure, miss the red dust wine, then collect the flower dew and the grass and trees to brew, so it is called Buddha wine. ”

It was not the little monk who spoke, but the head of the Lin family, but the little monk was surprised when he heard this.

"Uncle used to be a disciple of Buddhism?" the little monk said in surprise.

"Nonsense, your father is a monk. Lin Fang was coquettish and despised the little monk, and this reason was said.

Mu Ming also has strange eyes, and the eyes that look at the head of the Lin family are a little unnatural, and he secretly says, is it difficult to be vulgar.

The head of the Lin family was questioned by the little monk, and couldn't help but be stunned, and saw that Mu Ming's eyes were a little unnatural, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

"Ahem, you little baby, you will talk nonsense, I was never a disciple of Buddhism, but I knew a person in Buddhism, and I also drank some Buddhist wine. The head of the Lin family scolded with a smile and said the reason.

"I see, the little monk still thinks hehe, I don't know which monk I recognize?" The little monk was a little embarrassed and snorted.

"That person is your master, Fahai. The head of the Lin family smiled and looked at the little monk's eyebrows.

"No wonder, only my master dares to drink Buddha wine. The little monk was taken aback, but then relieved.

"Fahey. Mu Ming whispered softly, then glanced at the little monk, and nodded again and again in his heart, it turned out to be in the same vein, and the incense continued.

"Come, let's eat the food, it's cold. After glancing at the little monk, the head of the Lin family said.

Mu Ming and a few people are naturally not polite, not to mention, the craftsmanship of the Lin family master is really good.

"Daddy's craft has grown again. ”

Lin Fang took a bite and said.

"Yes, if you can get Fang'er's appreciation, your father's craftsmanship will be more progressive. Seeing this, the head of the Lin family laughed even more, and Mu Ming was also stunned, maybe only in front of Lin Fang, the man who was so gentle that people would be like a spring breeze would do this, and put the emotions in his heart on his face.

Ki Ming and the little monk glanced at each other, and they both saw a different look in each other's eyes, but they both disappeared in a flash.

There are lights lit around the pavilion, and the lights are slightly yellow, swaying gently, dyeing the surrounding white with the same color, making this space not have the coldness of white, but the warmth of pale yellow.

Mu Ming ate the meal, from time to time to say a few words, the little monk was surprisingly happy, and repeatedly filled Mu Ming, Lin Fang's eyelashes were bent, laughter came out from time to time, the head of the Lin family hung a gentle smile, in a trance, Mu Ming's heart emerged a taste similar to home, and his heart was full of warmth, and suddenly, Mu Ming found that he was no longer alone.

"Grandpa, you can rest assured. Kinawa whispered in his heart.

The next day, the white clouds in the sky suddenly dissipated, the blue sky returned, the sun was rising, the soft light of the master, shining on the city of broken incense, the city was majestic, like a mountain, under the light of the sun, making the city with a trace of hazy color, in this snow-covered world appeared extraordinary.

"At three o'clock in the afternoon, all the disciples went to Tianyun Academy with me. A sound came from the Broken Incense Building, echoing in the sky, shaking the trees in the distance and making the snow white.

"Are you leaving, I'm really reluctant. Kikina opened his eyes, a little nostalgia in his eyes, but there was a hint of anticipation.
