Chapter 9: The Marriage Contract
"Brother Li, it seems that today's Xining City is a little more lively than usual, then I won't be able to disturb it, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely ask for advice next time and say goodbye." β
Lu Lesheng saw such a scene for the first time, not to mention that he was still a loser, but he was by no means cowardly, so he was ready to leave.
"Hey... Wait, I haven't asked Your Excellency for your name, the so-called not to fight and not to know each other is fate, if I can, I am willing to make you a friend. β
Before Lu Lesheng had taken a few steps, Li Muqing chased after him, and a pair of clear eyes highlighted a bit of sincerity.
"That's natural, thanks to Brother Li's love, in Xia Lu Lesheng. Li Muqing, who was snubbed by many "big shots", actually came over to make friends with him, which suddenly made Lu Lesheng feel a little surprised, but his tone was also calm, he didn't feel that he had any conditions to make the other party interested.
"Lu Lesheng, make a living from music, good name, then Brother Lu, there will be a period in the future. β
"There will be a period later. Lu Lesheng clenched his fists, and then gradually disappeared into the sea of people.
And the white-haired old man didn't seem to change color because he was ignored, so he slowly walked in front of Li Muqing, and said in a slight way: "Victory is not arrogant, Corporal Lixian, worthy of being a spiritual master, old decay..."
"Okay, old man, don't you bother, I know that you are the sect master of the Heavenly Dao Sect, you have already said it, but I... Not interested!"
Li Muqing paused in his last words, deliberately suppressed his tone, for a while, the white-haired old man was extremely embarrassed, his face was extremely complicated, and he was also a sect master, so he simply refused, without a trace of tactfulness, people don't want to lose face?
"Hugh is rude, how did the teacher teach you?"
A sound like a bell came from the air, and suddenly the surrounding sound waves seemed to rise and resounded in the sky, and everyone didn't know where it came from for a while.
After a while, I saw a huge firebird in the sky, screaming and whistling with the firebird's pleasant cry, and exuding a very powerful aura of its own, and above the firebird stood a gray-clothed old man, he was dressed in a gray robe, pulled a Dao bun, held a floating dust, and carried a sword, which made people look like they had revealed a fairy wind and bones.
"Meet the master!" Li Muqing immediately clasped his fists with his hands and said humbly, even his posture was respectful, and he didn't dare to have a trace of disrespect.
The gray-clothed old man flew down from the firebird and landed on the ring, and as he raised his air gesture, the firebird got up and flew away, disappearing into the sky of Xining City.
However, the gray-clothed old man's eyes only swept over Li Muqing's body, and then he turned to the sect master of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and said quite gently: "Sect Master Mo, the inferior disciples are stubborn, and the old decay is not well taught, please forgive Sect Master Mo." β
"Ethereal real person, I didn't expect to meet your old man in Xining City, it has long been rumored that the Seven Star Sect is isolated from the world, and its disciples are all amazingly talented, but every few years, the selection of disciples only recruits genius boys... When I saw it today, it was true. β
The sect master of the Heavenly Dao Sect was proud of the world and instantly felt a little humble, after all, he was just a second-rate sect, and he was very different from the seven major sects in the Kyushu Continent...
"It's just a vain name and a naughty scumbag, let Sect Master Mo laugh, Sect Master Mo, please!" Before the words fell, he and Sect Master Mo slowly came to the side of the city lord Song Haiyun.
"Meet the Ethereal True Man, Sect Master Mo. β
Before the gray-clothed old man approached, Song Haiyun opened his mouth first. Although Song Haiyun is the lord of a city, his sect status is not comparable to him, even if it is an imperial city, he has to be respectful, not to mention a small city lord, for these young generations of Xining City, it is a supreme honor to be selected as a disciple of his sect, and he will definitely become the pride of Xining City in the future, so without exception, all the martial artists in Xining City can dream of entering these huge sects, even the imperial city is also the same, but the threshold of the sect is too high, and the illusion of most ordinary young martial artists has been stifled, just like the dream university on the earth, and it seems to be the real purpose of the city lord Song Haiyun to compete in martial arts to recruit relativesγ
"The Song City Lord doesn't have to be restrained, today I am arrogant and abrupt, and I also ask the Song City Lord to be surprised. β
The gray-clothed old Taoist brushed the dust, and came to Song Haiyun with light steps, only to see him with a crane on his back and a turtle's back, phoenix eyes and eyebrows, his complexion was still ruddy and elegant in his old age, although he was gray-haired, he also had an extraordinary temperament, but his complexion was extremely kind, making people look like there was no trace of majesty.
"The ethereal real person is polite, I have long heard that the spirit master has the power that is very human, and when I see it today, the rumors are true, such a good disciple is really rare, and in the future, there will be dragons and phoenixes among people, and the achievements are extraordinary!
Song Haiyun wanted to speak and stopped, but only pulled Song Xinran's hand slightly, pretending to be humble, his heart was already ecstatic, and his happiness blossomed, such a good son-in-law, but it was difficult to find.
"Master, I..."
Before the ethereal real person could speak, Li Muqing came over and said first, and before the words were finished, he was interrupted by the ethereal real person raising his hand, so that his rather gentle eyes swept over the girl beside Song Haiyun, and said calmly: "There is no beauty in the autumn, it is a beautiful woman, the country and the city are beautiful, and the people of the world are shocked, the Song City Lord is such a beautiful woman, there are few in Kyushu, but I am a naughty villain, my family has changed mutated, and I will not be allowed to marry within three years, but the matter has come to this point, I might as well come to my Seven Star Sect in three years, how about I personally preside over the marriage contract?"
"Master..."
Li Muqing felt aggrieved like a child at this time! He thought it was an ordinary martial arts competition, but he didn't see the banner on it clearly.
"Thank you ethereal real person for your love, the disciple is not only talented, but also a noble spirit master, my little girl is ashamed of herself, as for the three-year covenant, the younger generation looks at its fate, and does not strengthen the request, but the heart is the only daughter of my family, if you can let the ethereal real person can be brought into your sect, even if it is a disciple of the outer sect, you can be very grateful. β
"Well, this time with my apprenticeship experience, I have been looking for a person who has a chance, since it is destined, after this trip, let me enter the sect. β
"Thank you for the ethereal real ......"
......
...
With the gathering of many peerless masters in the ring, there were more and more people walking, and they did not disperse for a long time, and they were also humble and humble between them, and Gong Wei echoed each other and rode away with a few words, disappearing into the sky of Xining City...
At this time, the sun is about to set in the west mountain, so that the scorching sun under the Xining city will be cooler, from a distance to see the sunset began to sink, the sky came out of an incomparably brilliant glow, suddenly, the sky was dyed crimson, like a magnificent red ocean, as the sunset sinks, it becomes more and more red, red almost dripping blood, like a huge red peony blooming in the sky, full of fragrance.
Coming along with the red sunset, passing through a small wing room in the Su family's mansion, the white window goose paper suddenly became a little bright red, and it spread in Su Qingyun's room through the window outside the wing.
Mo Yuqin and the others in the wing room saw that Su Qingyun was getting better, and An Zuo's rest had already dispersed, leaving Su Qingyun lying on the bed alone, at this time he was not sleepy, the wooden box in his hand had been taken out to study when Mo Yuqin left, but after all, there was no reaction, Chen Xiaodong's fingers were still slightly bleeding, and the blood-stained wooden box was turned around in his hand, and the last expectation was also extinguished, a heavy and sad mood surged over his heart, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed, underestimating: "Spirit grass? She said that Spirit Grass could summon her, but it seemed that she couldn't help me..."
Chen Xiaodong's face changed very quickly, and his expression seemed to be very complicated, and then said: "No, I didn't know it last time, I have to ask again next time, there will definitely be a way, and what I need now is the spirit grass, yes, the spirit grass." β
At this time, there were many people gathered in the hall of the Su family, even the patriarch of the Su family also went out to sit in this hall, Mo Yuqin, as the previous acting patriarch, naturally would not be absent, and was under the patriarch, Chen Lao and Chen Yueqiu were sitting at the wooden table on the right, there were no vacant seats on both sides of the road, they looked sad and their faces were anxious.
"Yuqin, don't worry too much, the withering of the Red Flame Flower and the Phantom Jade Biluo Chrysanthemum Spirit Grass outside the wing room last night may not be what the ghost doctor said. β
I saw an old and pale white-haired old man, whose face was wrinkled like a chasm, making him look like he had been a hundred years old. His charitable look comforted the silent Mo Yuqin on the side.
"Yes, Su Qingyun's complexion today is also significantly better than yesterday, and Mrs. Su shouldn't be too worried. β
Chen Lao also echoed and said, regretting it, Su Xingchen, who once dominated the Nine Continents, disappeared mysteriously because of his own family, and this son will not live for twenty years, Su Xingchen's vein will fall here, fortunately, there is Su Meiqi to support all of Mo Yuqin's expectations.
"Thank you for your concern, I was just thinking about it, it seems that Yun'er made a marriage contract with Yueqiu more than ten years ago, right?"
Mo Yuqin thought about it for a long time, and finally opened her mouth, she was reluctant, Yueqiu is not only beautiful as a flower, good conduct, but also has a high talent for cultivation, such a daughter-in-law is naturally unwanted, but Yun's childhood is not good, she is afraid of misleading people's future, she doesn't want to be so selfish.
"Yes, yes, it's been twenty years, remember when they weren't born yet? remember that Xingchen was only twenty years old at the time, you were still a little cutie, but later..."
Chen Lao took a sip of wine, and began to recall it affectionately, telling the story of the year with the strength of the wine, intoxicated, and not paying attention, there was a trace of tears in the corner of his eye.
"Yes, time is really fast, twenty years have passed, and now the children have grown up, as for the previous marriage contract, Old Chen, I think it will be canceled. Yueqiu has been gifted since she was a child, her appearance is not good, and she will definitely be good in the future, but my family's Yun'er is full of cold and poison, and I am afraid that I will make the girl young by mistake. β
Mo Yuqin knew that Chen Lao's visit was not just to visit Yun'er, Mo Yuqin tentatively asked if they were here for this marriage contract, because Mo Yuqin felt that the current Su family had nothing to pay attention to except for that marriage contract.
"Ah, no, even if Su Qingyun is critically ill, but the young generation of the Su Mansion is not only him, for example, Su Daji's son Su Yunnan is not bad, anyway, the marriage contract is to marry the Su family, you might as well..."
Since the Su family is still a big family in Xining City, with a wide range of businesses, such as mining, tea industry, cloth mills, land and grain planting, etc., there are several elders, and the one who spoke just now is also an elder, named Su Bai, and together with Elder Su Daji, he is mainly responsible for mining.
"Presumptuous, do you have a part in speaking here?"
The old patriarch suddenly became angry, and with a wave of his palm, the table and chair in front of Su Bai were instantly shattered, his expression was very serious, and a pair of dark black eyes looked directly at Elder Su Bai, exuding a powerful aura of cultivation, which made Elder Su Bai shudder, and hurriedly knelt on his knees, and said with a humble posture: "Patriarch, it's not that I'm selfish, I'm also thinking about the family, after all, if she doesn't marry Qingyun's nephew, she will definitely marry an outsider, I just put forward an opinion, not his intention." β
"Why is this so, this is..."
Chen Lao was also surprised, everything exceeded his expectations, and he thought that he was here to withdraw from the marriage, and he didn't know where to open his mouth for a while.
"Aunt Mo, I, Chen Yueqiu, am willing to marry Su Qingyun, even if Brother Qingyun is riddled with cold poison, I am willing to stay by his side all the time. β
A crisp voice sounded in the hall, and everyone immediately showed an expression of amazement.
