Volume 1 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 20 Greeting Relatives
"Selling steamed buns, fragrant meat buns."
The lid of the steamer was lifted, and a white mist rose up.
"Auntie, bring me two buns!"
Luo Mingzhang threw a few coppers on the bun shop and picked up two buns.
He picked up a meat bun, blew on it, and took a bite of it, which was fragrant.
"Well, it's delicious, it tastes so good."
A breath of white air came out of Luo Mingzhang's mouth, and he looked at Yu Xi:
"Do you eat?"
"What should we do now?"
As soon as he entered the town, he was trapped in the illusion, which made Yu Xi feel a little inexplicably anxious.
"You should eat, you should drink, the people take food as the sky, what is more important than eating, if you don't fill your stomach, how can you have the strength to work."
As she spoke, Luo Mingzhang's bun was stuffed into her hand, and a warm feeling spread from the palm of her hand.
Yu Xi picked up the bun in his hand, put it to his mouth, and took a bite, and the warmth seemed to be transmitted from his mouth to his whole body.
"If you want to break the real illusion, there are only two ways, first, to break it with force, which you and I can't do. The second way is to find the source of the illusion and find a way. ”
"And how do we find the source of the illusion?"
Luo Mingzhang pointed to the previous stall and said with a smile:
"Listen, what are they talking about?"
When Yu Xi heard this, she looked towards the bun shop, and at this time there was a woman standing there.
She gave the money, carried the bun, and said to the eldest mother:
"Did you hear that? Master Su's daughter is going to marry the county Chamber of Commerce, Boss Li's son. ”
"Your news is outdated, they are doing a happy event today, my men have been called to help, I heard that the team to welcome relatives is already on the way."
"Ah, is that today? Speaking of which, the Su family is also a scholarly family, but it is also worthy of Li Gongzi in the county seat. ”
At this moment, a boy of eleven or twelve years old sprang out of the house, and shouted at the two women:
"This Li Gongzi, what's so good, Brother Han Linsheng is the one who loves Miss Su the most."
The eldest lady glared at the boy fiercely:
"The children of the family, know what love is, hurry back to the house."
The woman in front of the bun shop also shook her head:
"Speaking of Xiao Han, it's a pity for him and Miss Su."
"Who's to say it's not...... It's just that this world is like this, pay attention to the right family, how could Master Su be willing to marry his daughter to a poor boy like him......"
Yu Xi's cultivation has reached the second-order advanced qi refiner, and her eyesight and ear power are far beyond ordinary people.
She found that not only this bun shop, but almost everyone was talking about the marriage between Miss Su and Li Gongzi in the county seat.
"You've found out a long time ago?"
"Just a little bit earlier than you."
Yu Xi saw Luo Mingzhang squinting with a smile, and took out his finger and compared.
If it weren't for his reminder, I really wouldn't have noticed this crucial detail.
"A real illusion, it is also an illusion, it must have a source, and this source must be someone's memory, such as this bun, its taste must also come from someone's memory of it."
Luo Mingzhang looked at Yu Xi with a smile, shook the bun in his hand, and then ate it clean in three or two bites.
"It's like a dream, there must be a core, or a theme, so the question is, Yu Xi, do you think, in this fantasy, what is the theme at this time?"
"This wedding!"
Yu Xi said.
There is no doubt that the core of this fantasy is the wedding that everyone is talking about.
In the form of a dream, not everyone thinks how important this wedding is to talk about it.
It's the subconscious of the owner of the illusion, who thinks that this thing he seems to care about very much, the people he knows well: the lady of the bun shop, the blacksmith at the edge of the village, and the shopkeeper of the inn......
In the judgment of the owners of the illusion themselves, how they will react to this wedding.
All these people's different reactions to this event came from the memories of the owner of the illusion, and together they made up this dream......
Yu Xi's eyes were a little different when she looked at Luo Mingzhang.
Regarding the real illusion, she had read the relevant records in the classics of the master's sect, but when she was in it, her eyes were still black.
And the young man in front of him, between seemingly random actions, has figured out the key vein.
If it weren't for his reminder, he still wouldn't have discovered these hidden details.
Just then, there was a commotion outside the town.
Red firecrackers "crackled" on the bluestone road outside Qishui Town.
A welcoming team of dozens of people slowly walked into Qishui Town from a distance, beating gongs and drums.
Headed by a handsome young man riding a tall horse.
The people of the town came out of their houses one after another, stood on both sides of the road, and watched the team from the county town.
One by one, the children chased the family and jumped and jumped.
For the people of the town, there are not many such lively things.
Luo Mingzhang stood in the crowd and said to Yu Xi beside him:
"See what?"
When Yu Xi heard this, he stared carefully at the team that greeted his relatives.
"Their faces...... I can't see their faces clearly......"
Why didn't she realize just now that all the people in the welcoming team did not have a clear appearance.
Even Li Gongzi, who was riding on a horse, she only subconsciously felt that he was very handsome, but after careful observation, she couldn't see his face clearly at all.
"The matter of welcoming relatives, in the memory of the master of the illusion, he has no real experience, he doesn't know anyone in this team, he just thinks that this Li Gongzi should be a handsome and handsome man."
Luo Mingzhang looked at Yu Xi and continued.
"Then the question is, why did this thing that didn't happen become the core of this illusion at the moment?"
"This matter, for him, is an insurmountable obsession."
Yu Xi thought about it and said.
"So, the clue we're looking for is in this wedding."
"Let's go along and have a look."
Luo Mingzhang grabbed Yu Xi's hand.
Feeling her struggle slightly, he just thought he didn't know, and continued to lead her along the crowd and walk forward.
It didn't take long for a high-gate compound to appear in Luo Mingzhang's sight.
The house was hung in festive red, and the door was written with two big characters "Su Fu".
At the gate, a middle-aged man with glasses and a bookish atmosphere stood at the door, greeting the passing guests with a smile.
Seeing the procession of greeting relatives, he led people to greet him, and his servants lit red firecrackers.
looked beaming, but I don't know why, Luo Mingzhang and Yu Xi felt a sadness from the bottom of their hearts.
At this moment, Luo Mingzhang suddenly sensed the wandering spirit who had lost contact in the town before.
A tragic picture passed through the eyes of the wandering spirit......
