Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Fragrance of Flowers and Wine
The universe is vast, there is a pole in the north, the first stars, as the king of the right pivot of the North Pole;
- "Miscellaneous Notes of Heaven and Man, Galaxy Chapter, Prequel"
"You're here. The purple-clothed immortal monarch stood on the south bank of the Silver River with a light smile, and greeted the young man in cloth who was lying on the opposite side and reading a book.
The young man looked very sleepy, and said angrily, "I'm here early." I heard that a certain star official had been promoted to a knighthood, and I wanted to come early to congratulate him, but I didn't know that I waited for a whole day in this empty galaxy...... I didn't sleep well!"
When Xingyuan heard this, he felt very guilty, "I'm sorry for making you wait for me for a day and a night......"
"Ah, a day and a night, you're so beautiful!" Gou Chen held the book and glanced at him, "I'll come here in the evening, and I'll wait for about an hour." ”
Hoshigaki muttered quietly, "Then you said it was a whole day......"
"I didn't say I'm worthy of you for a month. Gou Chenyi stood up and argued towards the Xingyuan on the other side, "One day in the sky, one year on the earth! The twelve hours of the heavenly realm are the twelve months of the earth, I have waited for you for an hour, and it has already been more than a month in the world." ”
Xingyuan has never had a way to deal with the crooked reasoning of this Northern Heaven Star Official, so he had to smile and shake his head, "Okay, even if it's like this......"
"No, yes, yes!"
"Okay, yes. Xingyuan jokingly said to the other party: "I did go to drink with my colleagues in Nantian last night, and I went to the bank of the Milky Way in the middle of the night, but when I looked at Beitian, I didn't see Lord Gou Chen?"
"It's the middle of the night, I went back to sleep early, do you really expect me to stay awake at night for you?" Gou Chenyi, who didn't suffer at all, turned his back and rubbed his stiff and sore waist.
Xingyuan didn't notice the small movements of the star official on the other side - he was just feeling guilty in his heart, he should have come to the bank of the galaxy earlier yesterday to see Gou Chenyi, but on the other hand, he was a little happy in his heart, and it seemed that Gou Chenyi, who had no concern, would actually think about himself in his heart.
"Then again," Hoshigaki was in a good mood, "how did you know that I was added to the knighthood?"
Gou Chen pointed to Yao Guang of Guide Dou Xingjun, "Your seventh star." ”
Xingyuan subconsciously touched his heart.
"I gave you this seventh star to exchange books with you, and now I have finished reading this volume of "Miscellaneous Records of Heaven and Man", so I will return it to you. As he spoke, Gou Chen put away the scroll, pulled over a layer of clouds in his hand, wrapped it casually, and still headed for the other side.
Xingyuan stretched out his hand to catch it, but said with some embarrassment: "When I saw Antares yesterday, I already gave him back the scroll of demons that I exchanged with you......
"Oh, I was about to say it," Gou Chen said, "That book is in me, ahem, taking up space in our Polaris-sama's palace, and Polaris-sama is about to let me return to the southern heavens, just so you can get it, thank you." ”
"You just said that Polaris-sama asked you to return the book?" Hoshigaki asked, "Polaris-sama has awakened from his slumber?"
Gou Chen was silent for a moment, and then said: "Oh, he is also half-asleep and half-awake every day. You know, after all, the catastrophe drained him a lot of energy. ”
Xingyuan thought of the drunken words that Nan Ha San said in his arms yesterday: "After that catastrophe, Lord Polaris slept there...... Hoshigaki, we're sorry for you......"
"Speaking of which, I haven't experienced the catastrophe, but I've heard about it. "Hoshigaki tried to inquire about the news from the star official of the Northern Heavens, "It is said that Lord Polaris used all his energy to protect the stars of the Celestial Realm by sealing the Nightmare Demon who tried to occupy the Celestial Realm, so he fell into a deep sleep......
Referring to the catastrophe in the heavenly realm thousands of years ago, the second-class star official of the Northern Heaven suddenly smiled cynically, and a pair of mandarin duck eyes with red left and blue stared at the fine star gravel in the Milky Way in a daze. The glimmer of the starstone reflected two reflections under Gou Chenyi's eyes.
"Gou Chenyi?" Noticing that the Northern Sky Star Official, who usually talked a lot, did not speak, Xingyuan called him softly.
Hearing the Immortal Monarch on the other side calling him, Gou Chen immediately regained his trademark hippie smile, "Hehe, anyway, Lord Polaris doesn't have much energy to care about us now, so it's better to ......"
He winked at Hoshigaki and winked.
"What's not as good as that?" Xingyuan was obviously not very comfortable with the topic that was suddenly diverted by the Northern Sky Star Official, "You have something to say to yourself, across a river, where can I observe your words?"
"Oh, I mean......" Gou Chenyi was a little mysterious, his right hand was sealed, and he used the method of sound transmission to hand his deliberately suppressed voice to Xingyuan's ear, "Let's go to the world secretly." ”
"Going to the world again?" Hoshigaki was surprised, "Or do you want to go secretly?"
Gou Chenyi stood on the other side of the river, jumping to his feet in a hurry, "Why are you shouting so loudly, for fear that the star officials of the entire Heavenly Realm will not know?"
Hoshigaki pursed his mouth at the right time, and after a while, he asked, "That...... What are you going to do in the world this time, shouldn't you eat sugar gourds like last time?"
"Is there only sugar gourd in the world?" Gou Chen: "There are more interesting things in the world......
"But, don't you like the human world very much?" Hoshigaki asked with a light smile to the star official on the other side.
Gou Chen was noncommittal, "Yes, I do hate the world, but the world is just very interesting, so eating, drinking, and having fun can't be delayed." ”
"As celestial star officials, we should be responsible for cultivating ourselves and protecting the world, how can we always remember such mundane things as eating, drinking, and having fun, and we need to know that playthings are demoralized......
Xingyuan's kind words and persuasion were inevitably a little deliberately old-fashioned when they heard from the Northern Sky Star Official.
Gou Chen dug out his ears, "Forget it, forget it, if you don't accompany me, forget it." Anyway, the Southern Dipper Star Monarch has been promoted to the Seven-Star Immortal Monarch, and he has a knighthood, and the friends who come and go can only be those first-class star officials with strong energy in the Southern Heavens. Drinking elixir and chatting with them all night is not considered eating, drinking, and having fun, and accompanying me, a second-class star in the northern sky, to the world has delayed the cultivation and growth of others......"
"This ...... I didn't mean that, but it's okay to play once in a while......" Hoshigaki explained busily.
"Then you accompany me to the world. "Gou Chen has been intercepted.
"The Milky Way Barrier in the Southern Sky can't be opened casually. Xingyuan was very embarrassed, "Last time, in order to let me come back in time, Antares actually ventured to the Sun Palace to steal the Golden Tiger Talisman......;
"I don't care, you have to compensate me anyway. Gou Chen crossed his waist with one or two hands, putting on a brutal look.
Xingyuan sighed lightly, "Then Gou Chen Gongzi will have another opinion." ”
"I'm going to drink flower wine. Gou Chenyi said it as a matter of course.
Xingyuan was stunned, "Flower wine...... What is it?"
"I'll be waiting for you tomorrow on the banks of the Milky Way, and if you don't show up again, I'll ignore you again!"
The wayward Northern Heavenly Star Officer dropped a wordful word and disappeared from Xingyuan's sight without looking back.
Hoshigaki was left on the bank of the galaxy, and he was alone: "What the hell ...... What is Flower Wine?"
Ziwei Palace.
Many second-class and third-class star officials were waiting at the gate of Xingyuan's palace, and a few were fourth-class or even fifth-class stars.
The news of the Southern Dipper Star Monarch's knighthood spread throughout the Southern Heavens in less than a day, and these middle and lower-ranking star officials, who rarely had the opportunity to meet with first-class star officials on weekdays, took this opportunity to visit in the name of Daohe, but Xingyuan closed the palace gate, and he was carefully studying what flower wine was.
"Could it be wine made from flowers?"
Magnolia, lily, rose, jasmine...... All kinds of flowers were spread on the jade round table of Nandou Xingjun, and a room full of fragrant fragrance was filled.
Xingyuan took the immortal wine rewarded by the Sun Monarch, except for the dozens of lamps that were shared with the Heavenly Wolf, River Drum 2 and Nanhe 3 yesterday, and all the remaining ones were put into this bottle of Xuanbing Cloud Fire without hesitation - this bottle was cast with the coldest Xuanbing in the Southern Heavens, quenched with the fire of thunder and lightning born in the clouds, and it was formed in its shape after 9981 days, and the stored things generated immortal qi and were inexhaustible.
And these flowers, which already contain the power of the Southern Dipper Star Monarch, soaked them in the immortal jade wine, and then stored them in the Xuanbing Cloud Fire Bottle, their mellow fragrance overflowed from the mouth of the treasure bottle, bypassed the palace courtyard, and even floated out of the Ziwei Palace Gate, which made this group of star officials waiting for the meeting hesitate. As a result, later, there were more and more star officials gathered at the gate of Ziwei Palace, and from the first to the sixth star, the queue became longer and longer.
"Which immortal treasure did this take, so fragrant and pleasant!"
"From the palace of the Southern Dipper Star Monarch, I think it must be refining some kind of golden wind and jade dew that nourishes the world. ”
"I heard that the source west of the Milky Way is a pool of blue water, and the water in the pool is like wine syrup, sweet like flower juice......"
"You guess and guess and there is no result, who will go up and knock on the door, pull Xingyuan out and ask?"
As soon as these words came out, all the star officials followed the voice to look - it turned out to be the Scorpio Star Monarch who barely left home, and he was actually led here by this mellow fragrance.
"Antares, you are highly respected, can you go and ask the Southern Dipper Star Monarch to open the palace gate on my behalf?"
A second-class star officer proposed to Antares, and several other third- and fourth-class stars chimed in.
"I'm not a highly respected person, but like you, I'm just a colleague who came to pay a visit. Antares waved his hand and said to the stars: "Since the Southern Dipper Star Monarch has closed the palace gate, he already has the intention of refusing us. You still don't know Xingyuan's temperament, he doesn't like to be lively, so let's disperse if there is nothing important to do, let's disperse......"
Before Antares could finish speaking, another first-class star official stood up, "No, I have to go and see the Southern Dipper Star Monarch......"
The white-gold-armored Sirius Battlestar pushed away the other star officials, stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and entered through the door, leaving the star officers looking at each other.
"Hahaha, look at what I'm talking about," Antares smiled and waved his sleeves, ready to go back, "It turns out that Nandou Xingjun has a visitor today, it seems that I'll come back another day......"
Seeing that the Scorpio Star Monarch was also going home, the other star officials all returned in a huff.
Antares, who fell behind the stars, saw that all the stars had dispersed, so he turned his hands behind his back, turned around, and came back to the gate of Ziwei Palace. He was also like Sirius, climbing the stairs and pushing the door in.
