Volume VII Chapter 6 Yinshan Peony Festival
Volume VII, Chapter 6
"Peng Yao, wake up, don't sleep."
The time of half a pillar of incense has passed since the change of day and night, Peng Yao is sleeping more and more deeply, and the moon god, who has important things to do, can't wait, and gently wakes up Peng Yao.
"Hmm... What's wrong?" Peng Yao was sleeping soundly, she was dreaming, she would be woken up, and she looked confused.
"Go to Yinshan City." Luna Shindo.
"Where to do something, Peony Festival is not our festival." Peng Yao sat up, rubbed her eyes, and didn't want to go.
"Go play, go shopping." The moon god grabbed Peng Yao's playful character and said with a smile.
"Let's play, okay, it's been a long time since I've been on the streets." When Peng Yao heard this, she immediately cheered up, packed up and set off.
In Yinshan City, a hundred miles away, the annual "Peony Festival" is bright in the middle of the night.
The lantern corridor, the peony blooms, and the puppet show on the street kicks off, which is a traditional custom, people sing and dance, waiting for the peony petals with the wind and rain to fall into the city, and celebrate this time.
And I don't know that the heavenly palace above the clouds for tens of thousands of miles is the opposite.
~~~~~~~~~
Above the nine layers, the clouds are filled, and a glorious palace stands solemnly here, which has been revealed since the opening of the world, quiet and magnificent.
The palace is thousands of miles, the golden light is ten thousand ways to open up the road of the heavenly palace, the glazed light is reflected in the clouds, the colorful light is eternal, it extends all the way along the gate of the heavenly palace, and the position of the lord of the two palaces is at the end of the palace day and night.
The two sides of the hall are guarded by thousands of soldiers, and around the hall are two long dragon murals, lifelike, one is a white dragon, the other is a black dragon.
The position of the White Dragon Dongjun reigns all the year round, while his position as the Black Dragon Moon God has been empty for many years, no one takes care of it, and there is a lot of dust.
At this time, Bailong Dongjun was high up, slowly checking the book in his hand, and the atmosphere in the hall was solemn.
Directly below Dongjun's seat, the crescent moon god knelt on one knee, waiting for Dongjun to check the whereabouts of the world for half a year before he could get up.
Dongjun is also the sun of the east.
Dressed in white, with two sleeves in the breeze, long hair hanging down to the waist, slightly red and shining.
His sword eyebrows are sharp, his eyes are like torches, and when he doesn't move his face, the obvious sense of oppression has already hit people's hearts, as long as he raises his eyes and is stared at by him, his soul has been intimidated for seven points.
"Su Ru?"
Dongjun suddenly stopped, paused slightly on this page for a few seconds, mentioned the name of "Su Ru", and then looked at the Crescent Moon God with a sharp gaze.
"Who is this, and why is he interfering in the strange things?"
When the crescent moon god heard these two words, he was really frightened in his heart, and he could only quietly listen to Dongjun's question.
"He is a monk who has traveled the world and is also a demon master, he is strong, and when he caught Qi Qi and Wei Mei, he helped him, so he successfully won the case with his subordinates and Fu Demon Que."
The Crescent Moon God looked at Dongjun with a firm look and replied, not daring to have a trace of other looks, if Dongjun saw through and asked more, it would be difficult to explain.
"According to the usual practice, Bai Ze, you recorded these trivial people, all of them are understatements, why do you name them this time?"
Dongjun really found Confucius in Bai Ze's words and asked keenly.
"Poor Qi... It is one of the four murderers, the relationship chain between the demons, Su Ru helped his subordinates successfully arrest him, so he specially named him. ”
The Crescent Moon God was very nervous in his heart, but fortunately, his brain turned quickly, and his answer was quite fluent, and he didn't let Dongjun take advantage of the loophole again.
"What's the situation with Fu Demon Que?" Dongjun flipped forward and asked.
"At present, there has been no progress, Yu Kun is still developing the pill, the effect is not yet known, and it has been found... He has a tendency to refine demons, and he has already experimented with some little demons. ”
The new moon god reported, remembering the moon god's previous mention, he couldn't blindly tell Dongjun Fu Demon Que's current motives, so he truthfully reported what he found.
"Refining..."Dongjun's eyebrows sharpened a little more when he heard this.
Thinking that Fu Demon Que would never refine demons, but only teach, his behavior was quite weird.
But it doesn't matter, refining demons, in fact, in the demon master world, it's not a big deal, it's just that the main sect of Fu Demon Que doesn't do this.
Refining demons, mainly refining evil demons, those ferocious demons, have no intention of repentance, and have arrogant behavior, they will forcibly refine into good demons, or refine them into various medicinal materials, which can be regarded as doing good deeds for the rest of their demons' lives.
"It's okay, just keep an eye on it, and if there is any other movement, report it immediately." Dongjun got up and said.
"Yes." The crescent moon god hurriedly clenched his fists and received the order.
"Soon, I will go into retreat and cross the 10,000-year mark, and you will temporarily act as my agent for the rest of the political affairs."
Dongjun held his sleeves behind his back, turned around and spoke, the momentum was ethereal, and the sound resounded in the hall.
"Congratulations to the East Monarch Palace Lord on his 10,000th birthday!"
When the thousands of soldiers heard this, they knelt on the ground and clenched their fists, congratulating in unison, and the momentum shook inside and outside the hall, and the clouds were shocked and dispersed.
"Congratulations to the palace master!"
The crescent moon god was sincerely congratulated, but she was anxious, because there were still some things to deal with, and she could not stay here to take care of political affairs.
"Don't divulge it at this time, if there are evil people who are worried, the world will be in chaos."
Dongjun turned around sharply and asked everyone to be quiet, and hereby instructed, his face was serious.
"One more thing... Can you find any trace of the moon god?"
Dongjun suddenly let go of his eyebrows, looked at the dusty seat beside him, and asked calmly.
"My subordinates haven't found any trace of the moon god yet." How dare the crescent moon god say that he has found it, and immediately respond quickly, otherwise Dongjun will ask more.
"Let's take care of government affairs!"
Dongjun frowned again, gave a sharp command, and then turned around and left the hall.
Everyone sent them off, and the crescent moon god slowly walked to the big seat, looked through the books, stared at the word "Su Ru", his heart was reflected in his eyebrows, and then looked at the door of the main hall, and sat helplessly, dealing with government affairs first, and then making plans.
~~~~~~~~~~
The lights of the mortal world are like starlight in the sky, overlooking the splendor below, unconsciously, the moon god and Peng Yao have come to the gate of Yinshan City.
"Oh~ It's much more prosperous here than Xiaonian City."
Peng Yao lined up at the gate of the city to enter, looking left and right, he had already seen the fireworks in the city, and couldn't help but sigh.
"What are we going to do first?" Peng Yao turned around and asked the moon god, he did not turn back into Su Ru, but walked with a mask.
"You want to play all day long, and I have something to do when I go in." The moon god shrugged helplessly, hating that iron could not become steel.
"Even if there is something, you can't go in now, such a long line, and a few will take half a pillar of incense, so it's better to play for a while." Peng Yao said proudly that she was shot in the head by Su Ru.
"I really can't... I can only take the unusual road. ”
The moon god looked at this series of people from the side, the number was less than a hundred, and he thought of a move, if he couldn't, he could only fly in.
Waiting anxiously outside the city, there are already people in the city who are acting on high places.
The five members of the Night Palace were ordered to monitor every move in the city, and they were scattered among the eaves of the high places.
There was no strange development for the time being, and the large puppets on the streets marched along the streets, all on stilts, dressed in the appearance of gods, although not very delicately dressed, at least the respect of people to the gods, and the five could not help but praise their faith.
The onlookers on both sides of the street drank the peony wine one after another, and then knelt down to express their respect.
"It seems that there are still people who worship me." Suzaku saw the puppet that belonged to him, and communicated with everyone.
"What should I say, my python, how can it be made so much like a worm in the ground, and its momentum is half gone."
Xuanwu sighed helplessly, and the green python in his hand opened his mouth, also expressing dissatisfaction.
"Be content, there is no one who worships me."
Huang expressed puzzlement, Phoenix is obviously two kinds of gods, and it is too much to make only one appearance.
biu!!
While a few people were still talking, suddenly fireworks burst into the city, dazzling and dazzling, taking away the charm of the bright moon.
"That puppet, dressed up, but a tengu?" In the bright light, Suzaku saw the outfit of each puppet clearly, and suddenly thought of the deceased tengu god.
"yes, this one is so realistic, even Tengu's outfit is so detailed." The unicorn and everyone looked over and couldn't help but sigh.
After the fireworks, music is played in the city, and the puppet show is staged, and each puppet dances in unison, which is very lively.
At the same time, Suzaku discovers a frightened thing.
"How do I feel that this tengu puppet is always staring at me."
After several puppet dances, the eyes of the Tengu puppet can always meet the eyes of the Suzaku, and there is a kind of spiritual penetrating power that shocks the heart of the Suzaku.
"I'm not the only one who feels." The evil replied that she felt the same way.
Later, all five of them had such a strange feeling.
"It's not yet the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the moon is so bright and dazzling." In the end, Suzaku couldn't help but look at the bright moon in the sky, thinking about the tengu, and the inexplicable sense of resonance felt even more weird.
~~~
The sin of the tengu is also to swallow the moon and collide with the moon god, and is accused by all officials.
After the death of the tengu, the gods pointed the finger at the moon god.
Today's Peony Festival is also the day of the death of the tengu, and his tomb, standing here, seems to... Only one person remembers.
"Tengu God, this excellent peony wine, you have a bowl, I have a bowl!"
A man in a black cloak knelt in front of Tengu's tombstone, holding a bowl of peony wine, clinking glasses with another bowl on the ground, and then drank it happily!
"Ahh Good wine..."The man wiped the wine from his mouth, sighed, put down the bowl, and looked up at the moon in the sky.
The man gently pulled down his hat, revealing a face that was slightly frightened, with scars all over his face, his eyes full of evil spirits, and his mouth full of fangs.
"It's like... Somebody is always watching us, it's weird! ”
