Volume 1 Morning and Twilight Chapter 179 Who is unlucky with the lanterns on the night lake
They also didn't understand why Wen Yuan suddenly had such a powerful power.
But there are still many smart people among them, but these people are not as loud as the woman just now, but quietly told the people below, "It seems that she does have an inseparable relationship with the demon clan." ”
Wen Yuan couldn't hear them, so naturally he couldn't do anything about them.
"Queen Mother, the emperor has summoned all the young ladies to go to the Night Lake to participate in the lanterns." The chief eunuch beside the emperor personally came to deliver the decree.
Finally arrived, Wen Yuan, who had been resting with his eyes closed after drinking some wine, had a bright eye at this time, and there was a good show to watch tonight.
The night lake is full of colorful lanterns, and the candlelight is soft and swaying, reflecting on everyone's faces, "The palace has not been so lively for a long time." ”
The queen and the emperor chatted, and the princes and princesses below were also very excited, just hoping that they could win the championship in one fell swoop.
Wen Yuan chose a remote corner to sit down, this place was the least noticeable, she could do what she wanted.
When the emperor saw Wen Yuan sitting so far away, his heart was full of doubts, but he also let her go...... This child can't help her now.
At the beginning of the spotlight competition, the first to play was Wen Yuan's rival since childhood, whose status was not low, and he was the niece of Rong Guifei.
She was all too familiar with drawing a bow and shooting arrows behind the door, and skillfully pulled the bowstring, and a flaming arrow flew out with a "whoosh".
The arrow crossed the dim surface of the lake and landed on a lantern in the distance, and the first lantern was lit without incident.
Followed by the second lamp, Wen Yuan would not let her get her wish, his hand waved lightly under his sleeve, and the arrow was blown by an inexplicable demon wind and fell into the water.
Each person has three arrows, and there is still this last arrow, and the woman is bound to get it, but this time it is even stranger, the arrow that is obviously stained with fierce fire oil on this arrow will not ignite no matter what.
I had no choice but to give up this last arrow.
The woman was wondering, and when she turned her head, she saw Wen Yuan, who was smiling and trembling, and rushed up directly, "Are you making trouble, aren't you?!" ”
Wen Yuan pretended to be pitiful, and spread his hands to quibble, "I'm just gloating, where can I control where your arrows go." ”
The woman thought about it, this Wen Yuan was just a waste, how could it be possible to attract a gust of wind to blow her arrows away, so she didn't bother anymore.
Some men's archery skills are not as accurate as women's, which really makes people laugh off their big teeth, Wen Yuan spared no effort to satirize these people, "It's really a joke, a group of men's archery is not as good as girls, why don't you go home and embroider, can't you hold the arrow and pinch the embroidery needle?" ”
After she said this, many of the men present bowed their heads in shame, and some of the women laughed along with Wen Yuan.
The piercing laughter was full of sarcasm and disdain for men.
The next person to come on the stage is also a person who has a grudge against Wen Yuan, but this is a man.
Gu Ye, a man Wen Yuan will never forget no matter what.
After the man pulled out the bow, he didn't shoot out for the first time, but aimed at Wen Yuan and looked at her provocatively, "Why didn't Princess Sunrise show her hand to everyone today?" Although the princess can't cultivate without a spiritual root, she is strong in martial arts, and she is not a problem with riding and shooting. ”
He did it on purpose, mentioning Wen Yuan's embarrassing past in front of everyone, "Some people who are not often in the capital don't know it, our princess Sunyang is a person who has no spiritual roots in thousands of years." ”
Some people who rushed back from outside to attend the palace banquet whispered, "It turns out that she is Princess Sunyang......"
"It doesn't look like a wasted person......
Wen Yuan took all these words into her ears, but now she didn't care anymore.
After all...... Who cares about someone who is not as good as himself?
"Gu Gongzi, don't provoke me, it's not too late to wait for you to shoot, but also, Gu Gongzi is the best among the cultivators in the capital, how can he not shoot, right?"
"That's nature."
At this time, Gu Ye didn't know that he had walked into Wen Yuan's trap, and after a while, he would regret the Haikou he boasted about, "If I miss an arrow, how about licking the soles of your shoes?" ”
"Okay, as long as you can get an arrow, I'll lick your shoes."
It's too much fun, and the people around them are staring at the two of them excitedly.
Then Gu Ye confidently pulled out the bow, but this arrow shot out, and it looked like it was about to fall on the lantern, but just as he was about to touch it, a fish jumped up from the lake and slapped out the fire on his arrow with its tail.
The arrow fell into the lake in front of everyone, Wen Yuan hid his face and sneered when he saw this, "How is it, Gu Gongzi, are you coming to lick my shoes?" ”
After all, it was a promise he made, and it was in front of so many people, and now Gu Ye went up to lick Wen Yuan's shoes, and it was not a repentance...... It's really hard to ride a tiger.
But Wen Yuan didn't mean to let him go, he actually took off his shoes directly and put them in his hands, still swaying, "Could it be that Gu Gongzi wants to regret it?" So many people can see it. ”
Gu Ye slowly stepped forward, leaned down and said in Wen Yuan's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Do you really want this?" Can't you give me some face? ”
Face? You didn't save face when you exposed my scars in front of so many people just now, and now you want to save face again?
That couldn't be, Wen Yuan simply exclaimed and caused everyone to look at them, "Huh?!" It turned out that Gu Gongzi was joking around just now, and those chips were too big, oops, it was Wen Yuan who was stupid, he didn't understand Gu Gongzi's deep meaning, and thought that Gu Gongzi had some habit and really wanted to lick my shoes. ”
The man's face was already flushed by her, and he could only take the shoe in Wen Yuan's hand and stick out his tongue to lick the soles.
Fortunately, even if the emperor stopped it, it saved Gu Ye's face, "Enough, just make a little fuss, what kind of body do you really want to lick your shoes!" ”
With Wen Yuan's current status and strength, she didn't take the emperor in her eyes at all, her face sank, and even her voice became lower, "A gentleman is hard to chase after a word, since he has gambled on his dignity, isn't losing to trample his dignity under his feet?" ”
The emperor felt angry that she had refuted his face, but he found that as long as he had a murderous intent for a pair of Wen Yuan, his heart would hurt unconsciously.
That kind of pain is determined by the degree of murderous intent he has towards Wen Yuan, just like at this time, just like a needle prick, he can't stand it anymore, sweating profusely and sitting down with the handle of the faucet, "Alas, you kid...... Whatever you want, I can't interfere too much in your juniors' affairs. ”
Does that mean it doesn't matter? The hearts of the people were slandered.
Seeing that the emperor was on Wen Yuan's side, Gu Ye was angry, and he was about to lick Wen Yuan's shoes.
But when his tongue was about to touch the soles of his shoes, he suddenly remembered something, "You said, as long as I shoot an arrow, you will lick my shoes, I still have two arrows left, I still have a chance." ”
"You don't think you're really going to be able to shoot a lantern right under my nose, do you?"
"You're just a piece of shit."
Wen Yuan sneered, "Heh." Okay, in this way, we will make a bet on this remaining lantern, if you can shoot one of them, I will not let you lick your shoes, and let you ride back to Gufu, how about it? ”
Wow –
The people around exclaimed in unison, this is also too big, bigger than just now.
But how could Wen Yuan be so confident that Gu Ye wouldn't be able to shoot a single lantern? There must be some deception in this.
It's a pity that the bystanders are clear, and the onlookers around have thought clearly, this Gu Ye is still blinded by the bet that Wen Yuan promised.
"Good! Let's talk about it! You can't go back, so many people have heard it! ”
"Naturally, I won't regret it, but ......" Seeing that Wen Yuan wanted to speak and stopped, everyone understood that she still had to add, "If you can't set it to the last one, you have to kneel in front of me and learn to bark." ”
There were those in the crowd who were looking forward to seeing Gu Ye learn to bark, and there were also those who were eager to see Wen Yuan being ridden as a dog.
"Okay!"
As he spoke, Wen Yuan stood aside and watched him shoot arrows, and Gu Ye seemed to have forgotten what had just happened and continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows.
Everything went smoothly at the beginning, just when Gu Ye thought that Wen Yuan would soon be ridden back to his house by him, Wen Yuan only moved his hand slightly, and the speeding arrow stopped in mid-air.
Then Wen Yuan made a two-finger pinching motion, and the arrow was broken in mid-air.
"Don't worry, you've got a lot of chances."
There were still a total of ten lanterns left on the lake, and Gu Ye still didn't believe it, and he couldn't shoot any of them.
He thought it must be a coincidence, and Wen Yuan couldn't have had the ability to control his arrows.
The second and third arrows were all broken by Wen Yuan in the same way.
"What are you doing?!" Gu Ye couldn't help but yell at Wen Yuan in the end.
But Wen Yuan was extremely calm, calmly looking at the man in front of him with a happy smile, "What's wrong?" The rules didn't say that I couldn't stop you from shooting the lantern, could it be that Gu Gongzi couldn't afford to play? ”
"Okay, since you want to do this, then the master will have a good time with you."
He covered his spell with an entire arrow, and this time he was sure that he wouldn't be disturbed by Wen Yuan again.
Wen Yuan didn't know what he did with the arrows, so he had a little hope.
This time, Wen Yuan didn't use his hands and feet on Gu Ye's arrows again, but turned to the lantern.
When the arrow was about to approach the core of the flower, Wen Yuan used hexery to wrap the lantern in a water ball, and the flames on the arrow were swallowed by the water ball, and it instantly lost its color.
She looked at Gu Ye provocatively, "It's okay, you still have eight more chances." ”
Gu Ye didn't do this until next time, sooner or later, she would have to kneel in front of Wen Yuan and learn how to bark, so she simply threw her bow and arrow in Wen Yuan's direction to interfere with her vision, and then punched Wen Yuan while she was unprepared.
It's just that before this fist touched Wen Yuan, it was pinched by a man, "This is not a man, I am willing to lose the bet, since you don't have the ability to light a lantern, then honestly kneel in front of Princess Sunyang and kowtow to learn how to bark." ”
