Dance of the Gods of the Sea
"That's good. Yue picked up a wooden hairpin and gently inserted it into the ...... Shangguan Yi's hair.
Shangguan Yi slowly typed a question mark, stared at the moon, and his slow movements expressed a big question, what is this person doing?
"Now, this is my favorite ornament in this stall, in exchange, should you also choose your favorite one for me?As a friend, it's also fun to give each other your favorite items as a souvenir, right?" Tsuki's smile was dazzling, although her face was not very outstanding at the moment, but when her temperament bloomed with her smile, no one could resist this charm.
Actually, according to the principle of seeing people and talking about people, and talking about ghosts, the original meaning of a layer can be translated into n different words to express, and the most fundamental meaning of Yue's translated words is not what she wants Shangguan Yi to pick. But she didn't think there were any souvenirs to take back to Miss, so she came up with such a trick. After all, the young lady is not big, but she has a mature mind, so she can't be as so-so as she is dealing with ordinary people.
"How can this work, Yue's favorite thing is, of course, for me......" The emperor whispered angrily.
Shangguan Yi seemed to see the black qi spreading from her body to the surroundings at that moment, and the atmosphere was a little bad, although this was just her own psychological effect, but it was enough to prove that if she didn't do something, she would definitely be troubled by the emperor. Damn Moon, she must have done it on purpose......
"Well, she's kidding you, you know, she's shy, she's not good at expressing emotions, I'm different, I'm thick-skinned. She's hinting that I'll help her, nay, this is the treasure she gave you, you have to cherish it. Shangguan Yi lied without changing his face, or a lie that the three of them didn't believe, although some of the descriptions in it were very reasonable, but ...... That's a lie.
However, the emperor didn't care, happily took the wooden hairpin, handed the earrings in his hand to Hua Xiangrong, and said high-sounding words: "Na, these earrings are not bad, right? ”
Hua Xiangrong had to accept it with a red face, and handed the pendant made of unknown stone to Shangguan Yi in his hand.
Shangguan Yi took it, put it away properly, picked it up at the stall, and picked out his favorite thing for Yue.
In fact, they did this just to not collapse the character, and collapsed the character of the son + miss + second maid they deliberately created, after all, there are many people watching next to them, if they act recklessly, they don't know what it will become in the future.
"Sister, look, there are a few hillbillies who have never seen the world, and they actually like such accessories. When Shangguan Yi was choosing, he heard such a sentence not far from behind, and the condescension and disdain in his tone were quite obvious.
"Sister!" and the woman along the way with her didn't seem to expect her to say such a thing, and said with some reproach.
"Sister, I'm telling the truth, this stall is obviously ......" My sister seemed to want to say something excessive, but was interrupted by my sister.
"I'm sorry, my sister was spoiled and said something inappropriate, I apologize on her behalf, please don't take it to heart. My sister bowed to a few people apologetically, and pulled my sister to leave.
Shangguan Yi didn't look back, but the other three daughters, the younger sister, had already looked back and observed when they said the first sentence, so at this time, the emperor just said good-naturedly: "It's okay, it's just that you have to take care of Sister Ling in the future, and be careful of the trouble coming out of your mouth." ”
"I see. The elder sister answered the emperor before the younger sister could say anything, and then dragged the younger sister away.
"It seems that the two daughters of the Murong family actually came to the auction this time, hehe, should it be said that the goddaughter has no way or has a way?" Yue looked at the backs of the two of them, and smiled lowly, so low that the emperor didn't hear what she said clearly, only Hua Xiangrong seemed to hear a little bit.
"Na, uncle, what is this? Is this really a good business?" Shangguan Yi picked up a strange-shaped pendant, it was a pendant in the shape of a small bottle, it was not good-looking, and the place where it was put away was not good, so there were not many people who were willing to pick it up, or almost none, and those who occasionally picked it up would put it down immediately, and they didn't care if it was boring.
"There's nothing good or bad, I'm just doing business, I didn't steal or rob, I didn't rob or rob, I didn't play any obscene tricks, I sat upright, what you bought was your business, it had nothing to do with me, I was just a passerby who sold things. The uncle cleared himself very indifferently, as if he knew what Shangguan Yi was talking about, but he didn't seem to know.
"That's right. Shangguan Yi nodded, picked up the pendant and a bracelet made of very beautiful stones, the former accepted it himself, and the latter gave it to Yue, and then looked at the uncle and said, "Check out." ”
"A total of thirty taels of silver, thank you for your patronage. Uncle stretched out his hand.
The corners of Shangguan Yi's mouth twitched, and he said a little speechlessly: "Is your price fixed?"
"Not oh guest. The uncle said with a smile, thirty taels of silver sold for five pieces of general jewelry, and he made a lot of money.
"Huh. Shangguan Yi took out thirty taels of silver and handed it to the uncle, and did not bargain, although he knew that the uncle was waiting for him to bargain.
Everyone has their own way of life and values, and it is also his freedom for the uncle to choose to beg for life like this, Shangguan Yi feels that he has taken advantage of it, and it is also his freedom not to bargain, of course, there is another reason...... Shangguan Yi is really wealthy, compared to his uncle.
Immediately afterwards, a few people continued to wander around the city, watching all kinds of strange things from Shikoku, and finally returned to the inn after the sky was completely dark.
......
This night, no one came to do anything, so they could also sleep peacefully in bed, including Shangguan Yi also went to bed to rest after fiddling with the pendant for a while, after all, he had worked hard for a long time.
The next morning it was foggy, and the sky was not bright, but I got up when it was time to get up, and there was no way to get up.
"Hmm, what's going on outside?" Shangguan Yi got up and washed up in a bit of a daze, and asked the little monk who was a little earlier than him.
"It seems that the crowd who are going to see the emperor's worship ceremony is quite active. The little monk stood in front of the open window and looked at the crowd outside.
"Ahh
"What kind of stall are you setting up when the guests are gone, it seems to be like that. The little monk repeated the words of a stall owner.
"That's right, but hasn't the emperor gone yet? They are waiting so early, so it's better to go later. Shangguan Yi muttered, eating the food on the table.
"It doesn't look like it's dawn yet, but ...... In fact, it's not early, it's you who wake up late. The little monk reluctantly pointed out that Shangguan Yi was not, and then asked curiously: "Why did you get up so late today? Did you have a nightmare last night?"
Shangguan Yi was stunned for a moment, touched the pendant in his sleeve, and shook his head: "No, if the nerves are tense for too long, you will be very tired when you relax occasionally, so it's normal, right?" Anyway, there will always be a long time before the main drama starts, looking at the scene outside, it is estimated that the young master has only left for a long time, we don't need to rush, just take your time, as long as we don't miss the main drama." ”
"Drama?" the little monk looked at Shangguan Yi puzzled.
"Just look at it. Shangguan Yi didn't say much, because he didn't know either.
After eating, the two of them hurried over there slowly, except for the secret guards guarding the house, everyone else was rushing to the altar or had already arrived at the altar.
As Shangguan Yi expected, even if he has been grinding for a while, when he arrived at the altar, the ceremony was still in front of the process, the emperor in a sea blue dress was advancing the ceremony in an orderly manner on the stage, under the stage were kneeling people, and then outside were onlookers outsiders, and the dense crowd was blocked by the guards, watching at a distance from the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky, and there were people on the ground, on the wall, and on the roof, so many that the number was not clear, forming a tight encirclement, wrapping the emperor in it.
This is the emperor's stage, performing grand ceremonies in front of so many people, accepting the attention, admiration and questioning of thousands of people.
Shangguan Yi waited for a long time before he waited for the main drama he was talking about: , it was the same sword dance, but it was a completely different feeling.
When the emperor closed his eyes and burned incense, and then drew his sword and opened his eyes, Shangguan Yi narrowed his eyes, and the aura around him seemed to have changed...... Is it because of this person's sword dance? However, it makes some sense, even if he is a martial artist, if he wants to resonate with the world, he must at least be a master of the peak of the Triple Heavens, right? This person obviously doesn't know martial arts.
Shangguan Yi was not the only one who noticed this and couldn't figure it out on the spot, but no matter how incredible they felt, this kind of thing did happen, and it was in progress, and it became more and more obvious as the emperor's sword dance progressed.
The blue figure danced on the altar, or advanced and retreated, or jumped and fenced, the sound of the sword swinging was accompanied by the sound of fast and slow footsteps, and then with the vigorous and agile figure, coupled with the indescribable charm, it was like a real god dancing on the sword dance, which made people feel very dazzling for no reason, and even respected, and did not dare to look directly.
As time passed, the breath of the people on the stage became more and more ethereal, giving people a mysterious and unpredictable feeling. There was no other sound except for the sound of breathing and the sound of the heart beating, and it could even be said that the needle drop could be heard, and they were almost watching the emperor's sword dance with bated breath.
"In my name, I convey my message to you, may God bless the East China Sea with prosperity and strength, may the sea be peaceful and peaceful, may the people of Dongyu not suffer from it, and may I wish to be ......."
The emperor recited the prayer and completed the end of the sword dance, and his pious expression was as if he was really facing the gods, communicating with him and praying.
"Is it the pious wish and the effect of the sword that have aroused the aura of heaven and earth? It is really incredible, if this kind of thing is said to others, ordinary people may not believe it.
Is it the sword or the man's pious wishes? But how could such a pious man think about how to leave the throne in such a struggle, from the throne with the power of heaven, and from the country for which she cherished so much and worked for her. If the gods knew, they didn't know if they would be furious and send down natural disasters.
Although it is just a blessing from the imperial power handed down by the ancients, praying to the gods, but looking at such a picture, and thinking about the matter of the high priest, it seems that there is some basis for that absurd statement?"
When Shangguan Yi was guessing all kinds of possibilities in his heart, suddenly a very light sigh sounded, and at the end of the emperor, the sigh seemed to be: "The wish will come true." ”
"Goo. ”
Shangguan Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked left and right to see what the situation was, but there was nothing to gain, he couldn't find anyone who could do such a thing, and most of the people seemed to be indifferent as if they hadn't heard this sentence, was it only he who heard it?
Regarding this question, he asked the little monk, and the latter's answer was really nothing abnormal, and he had to suppress this uneasiness and continue to watch the ceremony.
The end of the ceremony actually means that the ceremony is almost over, Shangguan Yi waited for a while, and the little monk took the lead back to the inn, waiting for the moon and the emperor to come back.
......
"Have you ever seen the gods or heard the whispers of the gods?" The emperor looked at Shangguan Yi who raised this question with some surprise, put down the teacup in his hand, got up and touched Shangguan Yi's forehead, and said: "Of course the answer is no, how could you ask such an idiotic question? ”
"I see that your performance today is super good, it's just amazing, it can be said that it is shocking to the audience, so ......" Shangguan Yi scratched his head, he is now drinking tea with the emperor and Yue in their room, they have already run out of lunch, because Shangguan Yi has something to discuss with them, so they gather here.
"Why are you so nervous that you won't hit a ghost, right?" The emperor looked at Shangguan Yi with some ill will, she did hold a grudge against yesterday's incident.
"What about the moon, do you have any strange feelings?" Shangguan Yicai ignored her ridicule and looked at the contemplative moon.
"I just felt the change in the aura on the altar, and this change will exist for a long time, affecting the aura of the entire Dongyu, as for you, you should have felt something else, right?" Yue frowned, she had never learned about the rituals of other countries, this situation was generally impossible, but since it happened, it made sense.
I heard something saying, "Wish, it will come true," even though I may have misheard. Shangguan Yi was a little confused, and he now began to wonder if he was hallucinating.
"Probably, you're right. Yue said slowly, his tone uncertain but affirmative.
“...... Is this so?" Shangguan Yi also reacted, he was different from them.
