Chapter 2: The Celestial Feast
It's been some time since the Nine Heavens, and it's usually fine. On weekdays, I can't see half a fairy shadow, let alone make fairy friends. It's really boring.
Looking back, this Biyou Pavilion has been cleaned up by me, but it is full of fairy spirit.
"Alasβ" I sighed sadly, and poured the jug into my mouth, but I didn't see a drop of it, and threw it on the ground. "This Nine Heavens Immortal Brew is so unpalatable!"
"Why is Shangxian so annoyed?" I saw a heroic woman in front of me, dressed in colorful white, holding a Qiankun folding fan, with simple hair and picturesque eyebrows.
"I didn't expect this secluded place to have a fairy friend meet here?" I wondered.
"The immortal is wrong, the little immortal Bai Yin, lives in a star-picking hall at the end of the Tianhe. "She has a kind face, and she can't help but feel warm when she looks at her.
"At the end of the heavenly river, isn't that even more immortal?"
"Yes, but it's so quiet and beautiful, and it's very much to my liking. She put away her folding fan and put her hands behind her back.
"It seems that Bai Yin Shangxian is also used to being alone. β
"Otherwise, I think that when I was a mortal, I lived in the downtown area, which was noisy and chaotic, so I decided to practice. Now that you are an immortal, of course this immortal will enjoy the freedom of this immortal!" she smiled and was very lively.
I thought to myself: you just haven't lived alone for 10 million years, and this is just new at first.
"What Bai Yin Shangxian said is very true. β
"The immortal can call me Bai Yin, and the same immortal doesn't have to be stubborn. β
"Little fairy is also ginger. I don't know where the immortals are going?"
"Yesterday I received the Jade Emperor immortal post, and today I went to his old man's birthday banquet, the hour is still early, so I am scattered here and enjoy the scenery of the Tianhe River. I wonder if Jiang would like to go with him?"
"I ......"
"Yijiang Shangxian, this is the Jade Emperor's birthday banquet immortal post, please go to the appointment on time. "A fairy appeared out of thin air, but it came just in time.
I took the immortal post: "Xian'e stays, do I need to prepare anything?"
"Of course it's a congratulatory gift!" Xian'e said and disappeared.
"This ...... Temporary posting, also ......"
"Yi Jiang doesn't have to mind, the Heavenly Palace is still like this, and the invitations to major events are all carried out in order according to the age of the immortals, the seniority, and the level of the immortals.
"It's okay, let's go to the appointment right away!" I was about to leave when I was pulled by Bai Yin. She held out a hand to make a request and motioned to me, "Where's your gift?"
It turned out to be this, the gods are all at their fingertips, and any immortal thing can open the eyes of the immortals of the Nine Heavens. I waved my sleeves, and a crystal clear snow lotus was suspended in the air, glowing with wisps of fairy light, which must be something extraordinary at first glance.
Bai Yin's eyes suddenly widened, and he said in surprise: "Such an immortal thing, it's really an eye-opener." β
"Now we can go. I said confidently.
Unexpectedly, I was pulled by my clothes and feet again, "Your face ......" I saw Bai Yin look at me with some embarrassment.
I'm confused, with my immortal appearance, it's already low-key not to surprise the immortals, why do you still dislike it like this.
I took out the fairy mirror and looked at it, oh my God! Maybe I was in a hurry that day, and I mistakenly took a snow lotus that was not yet fully ripe, so that there is still half a petal on the left side of my face. No wonder all the immortals in the hall saw that I didn't have an amazing appearance that day, such a large petal blocked my face, how could I say that I was beautiful?
"Bai Yin, you wait for me. "I went into my bedroom. Sitting in front of the vanity mirror, the petals were removed with the fairy method, and the whole person was refreshed. It is said to be meticulous, but it is only a dozen seconds of time.
We rushed to the main hall while enjoying the scenery of the Tianhe River.
"I didn't expect that Yijiang Shangxian is so beautiful, I'm afraid that the fairies in the entire heavenly realm are not as good as you. "Bai Yin praised me.
"How old is this Jade Emperor?" I abruptly changed the subject.
Bai Yin chuckled, "How old are the Jade Emperor's old men, they are all three million years old." β
Three million years old, just a child before God. I thought to myself.
In less than a pillar of incense, we walked to the front of the temple.
The hall is full of light, and the immortals are busy back and forth, but they don't see the immortals. I was informed by Xian'e that today's banquet was set in the peony garden, and Bai Yin and I went on a different route.
"The peony of this heavenly realm is extraordinary, the flowers are beautiful, graceful and luxurious, and the flowers are undefeated for a thousand years. Hakuin introduced to me.
Then, Bai Yin threw a question at me, "The snow lotus I just saw, I don't know where it came from, I have never heard of it, I have never seen it." β
"This is a common flower in my previous dojo Floating Jade Immortal Mountain, but it has absorbed the essence of heaven and earth and the aura of heaven and earth plus my immortal power nourishment day and night, this is the only one. "I'm busy explaining.
"I see. β
Under the guidance of the immortals, we sat down in turn, Bai Yin was next to me, and I could ask her for advice if I didn't understand. Originally, God also needs to understand a thing or two about the human accidents in this heavenly realm.
The ground is full of fairy energy, and the peonies around are all in full bloom, which is particularly delicate. The dancers appeared in order, the music sounded, and the feast began.
"It's a really good wine. "I said it alone.
"That's nature, and it's the only way to taste this kind of wine. Bai Yin glanced at me and said.
Sitting opposite me was a handsome man in a black robe, whose weakness could be felt in his breath, but his expression was confident, and he laughed heartily from time to time.
"This is the second prince of the Jade Emperor, and the seat next to him is the eldest prince Qianfanyi.
That Qianfan was dressed in a white fairy robe, with a resolute determination between his eyebrows, his expression was indifferent, indifferent, and his appearance was more handsome.
"These two princes are approachable on weekdays, but this big prince is difficult to get close to, there are not a few girls in the heavenly realm who love him, but he can't even look at it. Bai Yin said as he drank.
"So, who is that fairy?"
"She... She is the goddaughter recognized by the queen mother, and the name of the fairy of Yaochi is Meng Yao, and the queen mother loves her very much. β
"I didn't expect this celestial realm to be a relative......" I said helplessly.
"I thought that being a fairy could be unrestrained, but who knows, immortals have the rules of immortals. β
Yes, only I, the supreme god, can't understand any rules, and I am free, but I also have the desolation of God. In addition to the generalization, it was time for the immortals to give gifts.
The first gift is the Folding Sky Star King, "This is the ancient Qiankun mirror, this mirror can distinguish all things, recognize the original gods, know the past and present lives, and can also make the demons have nothing to hide." The white-haired old man said that he would whisker with his beard.
"Such a holy object, Xingjun is afraid that he will cut his love. The Jade Emperor smiled.
"It doesn't matter, at that time, there was a peaceful scene in the Six Realms, and this treasure has been idle for a long time, and the old man is willing to offer it. β
The second gift was Lu Yuan Xianjun, "This immortal umbrella of mine can punish immortals and demons, and its divine power is extraordinary." β
Suddenly, the Jade Emperor frowned, "Why did all the immortals present their own magic weapons one by one today?"
Zhetian Xingjun stepped forward and said: "I am waiting for the immortal age to be old, and now the magic weapon is useless, and it has been sealed for thousands of years. β
"What Zhentian Xingjun said is extremely true, and I hope that the Jade Emperor will consider it. Lu Yuan Xianjun said.
"That's it, and I'm up to you. The Jade Emperor seemed to be a little displeased after realizing it, and these old guys didn't want to serve, so they said it directly, and used gifts to spoil the fun.
"Father, my son presents you with a crystal glass cup. "It was the second prince who spoke.
"Oh, it looks like an ordinary cup. β
"Father doesn't know......" Fu Ran stepped forward and poured the wine in the Jade Emperor's cup into the crystal glass cup. Suddenly, the sake turned blue.
"Father, please taste it again. β
"Well-the wine becomes more mellow and delicious, and taking a sip will make Benjun forget himself instantly...... The Jade Emperor's face was happy.
"It's good if my father likes it. β
This Fu Dye really knows how to be diligent, and other immortals are offering magic weapons to new heights, which is not as real as one of his cups. As everyone knows, he also likes to search for some immortal treasures on weekdays, and there is no shortage of rare treasures, but today he celebrates his birthday with a small cup, and it is difficult to guess his thoughts.
Fudye into the table. Turning sideways to Qian Fanyi beside him, he asked, "I don't know what treasures the eldest prince has prepared today?" There seems to be disdain, there seems to be provocation.
I quietly asked Bai Yin on the side: "Aren't they siblings, but they are so flattering and rusty." β
"Do you know that the second prince was born to the current queen mother, and the eldest prince's mother is deceased, and she is still a mortal. Bai Yin replied in a low voice.
Qianfan stepped forward and gave the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and then saw him take out a handful of white jade Xiao, "This Xiao can concentrate and calm the mind, condense the soul, and the legend is that it is the personal thing of the ancient gods, named Zhen Soul Xiao, and the family teacher Wujie Tianzun nurseries and ministers transferred it to his father." β
Fu Xiqin, the soul suppressor and the father god, lost the two treasures of the Six Realms for thousands of years when they sealed the demon god, but now they are presented to the Jade Emperor as a congratulatory gift, and they are really borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, one day, these things will be returned to their original owners.
The Jade Emperor couldn't put it down and played left and right. Extremely satisfied.
"Tell the Boundless Heavenly Venerable for me, thank him for such a generous gift. β
"The retainers obeyed. β
Fu Ran under the table showed a look of dissatisfaction, he expected that Qianfan would not be able to come up with any decent treasures, and now he offered it, like a slap in the face, he really underestimated this brother, and he seemed to have no quarrel with others on weekdays.
The next congratulatory gifts of the immortals are all inspiring, some ordinary immortals, Bai Yin also completed the gift, she presented the millennium Bodhi jade chessboard, and the Jade Emperor was also very satisfied.
"It's your turn, Yijiang, it's all over. Bai Yin reminded.
I'm already a little drunk at this time, so let's offer it with the intention of drinking.
"Xiaoxian Yijiang, hereby present snow lotus. "I cast a spell to make the snow lotus bloom in front of the immortals. The immortals were talking a lot, and it was noisy at this time.
"This snow lotus has miraculous effects, it can heal injuries and enter medicine, repair the original spirit, and improve the ...... cultivation."
"This snow lotus glows with strange light, it is indeed not an ordinary heavenly thing, where did you get a little immortal?" the Jade Emperor asked rhetorically.
"It's just a coincidence, Xiaoxian can't control it, I hope the Jade Emperor can like it. β
"Very good, very good, all the immortals sit down. At this time, the Jade Emperor's interest was high, and he didn't care about asking about the origin of the snow lotus, so the fairy music played again, and the song and dance were staged.
This feast is really troublesome, but the food of this Nine Heavens is really delicious, and I feel like I am drunk in a trance.
