Su Ye saw him pick up his crutches and slash at him, and hurriedly raised his sword: "Ah! Why are you in a hurry, old man? It's not a good thing to be so anxious at an old age. He shook off his crutches, and he had already sensed that this old man's strength was extraordinary, and he was either an elder or a deputy envoy in the sect, and he was not his opponent in terms of strength, so he put away his sword and smiled: "You won't really ask me to come to pick up people when I came to deliver the news, right?" Find out the current situation, people in our clan, whether to kill or kill is decided by our patriarch, and there is no room for bargaining when you return to the door. ”

The old man clenched his crutches, he couldn't figure out how the sect had specially sent the strongest disciple under the seat and made a detailed plan, how could it fail.

"It's okay to collect folk cultivators, and dare to set your sights on the Sheng family. If something happens to the young master Sheng, or is he really arrested by you...... Scold! Su Ye handed the letter over: "Think about how the once glorious Mingxu Sect fell out of the Ten Sects, that will be the end of your return to the Sect!" ”

"You! ……”

Su Ye stuffed the letter into his arms: "The news has arrived, farewell." With that, he raised his head and walked away in style.

The letter in the old man's hand was crumpled into a ball, and the anger in his chest was accumulating deeper and deeper, and his disciples had always been respectful to him, and how could he ever hear the hairy boy point to his nose and say such things to himself: "How can this be true...... Outrageous! Su Ze is in the first vein...... Bad Sect Plan! Outrageous! ”

"It's time to go north next...... Su Ye sat on the reef by the river and washed his face casually, put the fake skin back on the water, and suddenly changed his appearance that was very different from the original, and said to himself: "Yesterday, I received a flying pigeon from Brother Yan, calling me to meet in Shaoquan, I heard that the end is not going to hold a spring banquet?" Most of the five clans are here, what are you doing there? ”

"Isn't it...... Sheng Xuan resented that kid still remembered the promise he made with me as a child? Su Ye was overjoyed to think about this, "It just so happened that he had attended the Spring Banquet and went north with me to find the Cangyu Sword." ”

"You haven't written to me, are you trying to surprise me?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing, and tied the rag wrapped in the Wind Sweeping Sword a few more times to tie it firmly, hung it around his waist, and then walked briskly in the direction of Shaoquan.

The spring banquet is not only a feast for the five ethnic groups, but also a farewell ceremony for Ji Chun in the customs of the People's Day.

Peony Spring, at the foot of Jiuhua Mountain.

The city street has long been full of spontaneous stalls, and it is a large-scale market once a season, which the locals call "food spring". The big gathering lasted for five days, starting one day earlier than the Spring Banquet and ending one day later. There are sedan chairs tied with flower branches on the streets, which are the last spring flowers offered by the people to repay the five ethnic groups for protecting the stability of the world, and also for the respect and love of the ancient Xianmen clan.

After completing the assessment, Qiong and Sheng Xuan, who came here and Sheng Xuan, arrived at Shaoquan at the beginning of the "food spring", the gorgeous sedan chair with splendid flowers was carried from the Shaoquan City Gate all the way to the foot of Jiuhua Mountain, the convoy was in groups, the gongs and drums were noisy, and this cheerful scene was more than simply "lively" at all.

Such a grand scene is not only the first time Qiong has seen it, but Sheng Xuan, who has been unlucky twice, is also the first time to see it with his own eyes. The "prosperous age" that Qiong also knew in the past was just two words of understatement in the book, but he didn't want it to be so peaceful and prosperous, the Haiyan River was clear, and the people would so enthusiastically embrace the five major clans that sheltered them.

She was standing on the street to join in the fun, looking left and right, and was sprinkled with petals scattered on the high-rise platform, Sheng Xuan resented that she was panicked and dodged, and plucked the peach petals on her head for her, and couldn't stop chuckling on her face. Qiong also shook off her body and looked up, the girl who sprinkled flowers upstairs was wearing a red and pink dress, and her voice was babbling, and she smiled and sang at them: "Pretty sister, spring flowers are coming when you are lucky——"

Qiong didn't know whether to sing back or salute, so she simply smiled and beckoned to her, causing the other two girls standing next to the girl in pink to notice them, and she smiled and sprinkled a lot of petals at Sheng Xuan, "Brother Jun—look here—"

Sheng Xuanyan retracted his gaze and tightened Qiong Yi's hand, and said without looking back: "Hurry up." ”

Qiong also saw his ponytail mixed with a few petals flying in front of him, and a little red on his ears, and laughed and teased him, "Shameful? ”

Sheng Xuanyan held her hand with a little force, as if she was secretly complaining, Qiong also laughed, and walked quickly through the crowd market with him, because she had a sword pinned to her waist and was regarded by the people as a fairy vein to give flowers all the way, and when she reached the end of the long street, she already had a whole bouquet of flowers in her arms.

"Shall we go to the inn now? The spring feast will start tomorrow, right? Qiong also pinned the best-looking and plump peach blossom in her hand to Sheng Xuan's ear, and when he raised his hand to pick it off, she grabbed his hand and smiled at the corner of her lips. Seeing her smiling and sly, he pursed his lips and withdrew his hand, and let her fiddle with it: "Place the luggage first, according to what we have discussed, I have already arranged it." ”

"Really?"

Sheng Xuanyan saw that she wanted to walk around the market for a while, and replied: "The two inns in front of me are provided by the lord of this wine banquet for the people of the five clans to rest, and I can participate in the first day banquet, and the spring banquet on the second two days is a clan meeting, which is the affairs of the sect master and their affairs, and there is no need for juniors to participate." We'll rest here for a day, and we'll meet with Su Ye tomorrow night. ”

"The Lu clan and my clan are staying in the same inn, and the room I booked for you is close to me...... It is also quite close to the Lu family's dormitory, and there is only one floor in the middle. How about going there and resting first, and I'll come back to the market with you later?" ”

I don't know what kind of training I will receive when facing my master, Qiong Yi took a deep breath and suppressed her worries, and hugged the flower branch in her hand: "Let's go." ”

On the way to Shaoquan, she discussed many consequences with Sheng Xuan, such as Master Lu Bin not agreeing to the appointment between the two clans, or his parents not accepting him, even if he thought of a countermeasure, he was still a little apprehensive when he really had to face it.

"Nervous?"

"Hmm." Joan also smiled, "But they will always know." ”

Sheng Xuan resented the parents he was about to meet, and the words that Sheng Zijing had warned himself inexplicably appeared in his mind, "If you want to be good for her, just wait until you can be alone before talking about the future."

But he is not a patient person, and he has always been reluctant to procrastinate, for fear of change.

He calculated that he would be consummated at this time, and that he would be consummated from now on.

On the way here, Joan also asked him, "What if your father and my master don't agree?" ”

"That's up to us." Sheng Xuan's resentment replied like this: "I don't marry, I will do my life's work and guard Bai Xu." You don't marry, you find what you want in your life, and you travel through the world. I'll go with you as soon as I have time, and we'll be together forever. ”

In front of her, Qiong Yi smiled and pushed the large bouquet in her arms over, and asked herself, "Why are you stunned?" ”

Taking off the peach blossom branch on the side of her ear and putting it in her hand, Sheng Xuanren shook her head lightly and led her to stride forward.

*

On the third floor of the inn, Sheng's resting place is on the first floor of the backyard, Lu's is on the third floor, and Qiongyi's guest room is on the second floor.

As soon as the two of them entered the inn, an old waiter stepped forward and complained to Sheng Xuan: "Young master." His gaze stopped on Qiong Yi for a moment, not knowing what to call, so he remained silent. Sheng Xuanyan beckoned when he saw him, and the old attendant in the green beard and plain shirt nodded: "The old slave will do it." ”

Qiong also didn't know what Sheng Xuanyan ordered, his expression was puzzled, Sheng Xuanyan explained: "It's just to arrange a meal, go upstairs with me." She nodded, followed him into the guest room, the windows in the room were bright and clean, neat and generous, Qiong also looked around after entering the house, and saw a porcelain vase with exquisite patterns in the mahogany cabinet, so she took the flower branch in Sheng Xuan's arms and inserted it into the bottle, trying to fiddle with a beautiful combination, but the flowers were numerous, both wild flowers and whole branches, which were really complicated, and could not be placed at one time.

Seeing her standing on the edge of the shelf and arranging the flower branches, Sheng Xuan complained: "Qiong Yi, you rest here first, and I'll go back when I go." ”

Joan also raised her eyes to look at him, knowing what he was going to do: "Okay, go and come back quickly." ”

Prior to this, Sheng Xuanyan had not told his parents that he had a crush, nor had he shown any precursors of dating him, so it was too presumptuous and abrupt to bring Qiong Yi directly to them. Descending the wooden steps, he adjusted his breath, thinking that a punctual person like his father should have arrived at Shaoquan, and walked straight towards the most spacious and luxurious guest room on the first floor.

The door was half-open and half-covered, and the sound of falling chessboard came from inside, mixed with the voices of conversation: "I heard that the people of the five clans have arrived at this peony spring, and tomorrow's spring banquet may be a rare person."

"Xiao Jun is studying in Yichuan, it should be there."

"In the afternoon, my brother will definitely be here."

"Hmm."

Hearing the conversation between the eldest brother Sheng Xuanyao and his father Sheng Shangpei in the house, Sheng Xuanyao hesitated for a moment and pushed the door in: "Father, brother." He beckoned.

"Brother! Fang just told his father about you, which is a coincidence. When Sheng Xuanyao saw that it was him, he put down the chess pieces in his hand and smiled at Sheng Xuan. Sheng Xuanyan nodded, looked at Sheng Shangpei, his father was observing the chess game expressionlessly, and it took a long time to retract his gaze: "Why are you standing still in place?" ”

"Tell my father something."

Sheng Shangpei lifted his sleeves and took a piece from the chess box, and said lightly: "It's okay to say it directly." ”

"Fangcai." Sheng Xuan said unhurriedly: "I have asked someone to send a gift to Sect Master Lu, it is to propose marriage." ”

As soon as these words came out, the already quiet room was even worse, Sheng Xuanyao was directly stunned, and raised his eyes to look at his younger brother's eyes full of surprise, but because his father was inconvenient to speak here, the son who was about to fall on the chessboard was fixed in the air.

Sheng Shangpei turned around to face Sheng Xuanyan, and his tone couldn't hear the waves: "You? Propose? ”

"Yes."

Just thinking about Sheng Xuan's resentment of how old he was this year, Sheng Shangpei asked again: "Have a girl you like?" Is it someone from the Lu family? ”

"Yes."

"No." Shen Wei's voice came from the adjacent room, not wanting his mother to be in the side room behind the curtain. Before her face was revealed, her cold voice passed through the bead curtain and entered her ears: "You are only young now, and you are still two or three years away from the weak crown, why rush to get married?" ”
