Chapter 162: Thousand Petal Lotus
Zhang Ruyi was secretly frightened, he couldn't imagine that the ghost things were so cunning and so rampant, but unfortunately the righteous path was not good, so he let them do evil, "Warm nest girl, how is your injury?"
"It's fine, I'll take a break and go, I don't think they should come here again anytime soon. The two found that the warm nest girl had slender legs, a plump body, and a beauty.
Liao Birui heard that Shicai's flock of birds was a flying slave raised by witches, and now she is also a little afraid, if Shicai is late, the two of them are afraid that they have become hot bird droppings, "Now that they have flown away, you can also escape, we still have to hurry, let's go." ”
The warm nest girl said a few words of thanks, and the two were about to say goodbye and leave, when the warm nest girl suddenly thought of something and said: "The two of you stay, I heard that the two of you are going to Dongting Lake to find people, if I guess correctly, the person you are looking for must not be in Dongting Lake anymore." ”
"How do you know?" asked Zhang Ruyi, unwilling to let go of any news.
"The battle of Dongting Lake, I heard that there are many monks to participate, but the war has long ended, people have already left, a few days ago there was a group of ghosts were called by the gluttonous order to go to Taihu Lake to participate in the gluttonous feast, and what ice and snow wedding, I have long since abstained from eating flesh and blood, uphold the righteous path of practice, so I don't want to go, but I think that as soon as the gluttonous feast opens, the monks will definitely stop it when they hear the news, and the people you are looking for will definitely go to Taihu Lake, and you should go to Taihu Lake to find talents. ”
Zhang Ruyi and Liao Birui suddenly realized.
"There have been many offences in the past few days, and the villain was ordered by the princess to send the two out. A Yin soldier with a dark yellow face, two beards, and full armor, opened the stable where the Frost Moon Fairy Lang and Blue Butterfly were held, and sent the two out of the house.
Frost Moon Immortal Lang suspected that there was fraud in it, and asked, "Since she helped Bu Nanbei arrest us, why did she let us out, didn't she want to attack us?"
Yin Bing said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the two, I don't know the reason for this, but the princess has no malice in letting the two out, and the princess also instructed the villain, if the two of them want to find the floating snow fairy, out of the White Crane Immortal Residence, along the palace wall all the way to the northwest, there is a black green palace next to it is the Youzao Palace, and the floating snow fairy is there." ”
Let's go out first, if she wants to do it, she won't wait until today, Frost Moon Xianlang took Blue Butterfly's hand and said to the Yin Soldier: "Thank you for your princess's kindness, we won't go to the Youzao Palace." As soon as they came out of the stone gate, they found that the lake had been frozen by ice and snow, and there were countless ghosts running and working in the distance, and there were dozens of lights and candles that emitted green light hanging in the air, and the water tribes that usually patrolled were gone, and the two came to Zhenze Palace from along the ice cracks, and saw a black gas rising in the northwest, which was particularly eye-catching in the ice world.
"That's it, we're going along this ice wall. Frost Moon Xianlang saw that there was no one around the ice wall, so he walked with the blue butterfly against the wind, and soon came to the black air flow, and saw that there was a deep pool, the pool water was turquoise and rolling, and the black gas was rising, and there was a palace with green walls and green tiles not far away.
"This is the bottomless pool. Blue Butterfly pointed, Frost Moon Xianlang approached the edge of the pool, put his hand into the water, felt a cold air along his fingertips straight through the muscles and bones, frightened to retract his hand, Blue Butterfly said: "This pool of water is very magical, cold as ice all year round, but it can't be frozen, living creatures fall into the pool, it doesn't take a quarter of an hour, it can be peeled to the bones, and it will turn into blood in half an hour." ”
"It's so good, let's get out of here. The Frost Moon groom tried to know that this was true, so he left the cold pool, and looked at the ice wall and snow top of the Youzao Palace, reflecting a layer of cold light, this is a courtyard-style house, surrounded by a cold and shining ice palace, the two jumped over, crossed the top of the palace, fell on the patio, looked at no one around, walked towards the main hall, saw the silhouette of a person through the window screen, Frost Moon Xianlang recognized it as the Floating Snow Fairy, pushed the door and entered, "Sister Floating Snow, you have suffered!"
The Floating Snow Fairy looked back, it turned out to be Frost Moon Fairy Lang and Blue Butterfly came in, and was surprised and happy for a while, and hurriedly pulled the two to the inner room, closed the door of the hall, and made sure that no one was around, before coming back and crying with joy at the two, and said: "Brother Frost Moon, it's so good to see you again, I thought I would never see you again." ”
The last goodbye was almost goodbye!
"Me too, since Sister Jinhua and Brother Siejin were killed that day, and you were snatched away again, after I escaped, I and Xiaolan chased here day and night, just to save you out and find the wasp monster for revenge together. When Frost Moon Senro talked about the sore spots, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Do you see Sister Lone Butterfly?"
Frost Moon Senro shook his head, "There is no news of Sister Lone Butterfly. ”
"There are so many mechanisms here, how did you find here?"
"Speaking of which, thanks to Princess Katsuyu. Blue Butterfly wiped away her tears for Frost Moon Xianlang and said: "A few days ago, we pretended to be a herring slave picking tea to sneak into Zhenze Palace, but we were spotted by a herring monster, and then we strayed into the White Crane Immortal Residence and were caught by Princess Shengyu, she locked us up for a few days, released us again, and showed us the way to come here. ”
"Oh, it's her, it looks like she's going to help us this time, and I'm not wrong. The Floating Snow Fairy smiled with relief, and the Frost Moon Fairy saw that there was something inside, and asked, "Where is this Princess Shengyu standing on, have you seen her?"
The Floating Snow Fairy grabbed the Frost Moon Fairy and said, "Not only have I met her, but I also want her to help us complete a big thing, and I will tell you slowly when I have time." ”
"What's the matter?" Frost Moon Immortal asked anxiously, "Why don't we escape now and find a chance to go back to the Valley of Hundred Flowers to take revenge." ”
Frost Moon Xianlang didn't expect the Floating Snow Fairy to reject him, she said confidently: "I have already arranged, the great feud between Sister Jinhua and Brother Sieve Jin will be avenged in Taihu Lake, and the ice and snow wedding will be the day of our revenge!"
"What's the plan?" asked Frostmoon Senro and Blue Butterfly almost at the same time.
The floating snow fairy was just about to speak, when she suddenly heard the cry of the young lady outside the door: "Fairy open the door, the king is invited!"
The Frost Moon Fairy was about to go out to do something, but was stopped by the Floating Snow Fairy, "Don't be reckless, everything needs to be done carefully, you wait for me here, and I'll come when I go." ”
"Sister Floating Snow, you-"
"Don't worry, Bu Nanbei won't embarrass me, you must wait here for me to come back. ”2018
After the two of them were instructed, the Floating Snow Fairy went out of the inner room, opened the door of the palace, and saw the young lady outside leading a team of mussel soldiers, "Fairy, the king ordered the old slave to invite the fairy to Zhenze Ice Palace for a while." ”
"Lead the way ahead. ”
Surrounded by everyone, the Floating Snow Fairy walked through the long ice corridor, passed through countless beautiful ice palaces, and came to the highest and largest ice and snow palace.
The Floating Snow Fairy approached and said coldly, "It's not yet the time for the wedding, what are you calling me to do now?"
Bu Nanbei smiled on his face, and hurriedly went down the steps to give a salute, "Floating Snow Fairy, well, lady, today Zhenze Ice Palace is completed, I am invited to take a look, everything here is made for you." There is unquestionable control in the polite words.
"For me?" said the Floating Snow Fairy smiled disdainfully, "Those gluttonous lamps are also for me?"
"Well, that's it. "Step north and south for a while.
"Don't forget to promise me three conditions. The floating snow fairy walked up the steps, looked back at the ice and snow buildings under the Zhenze Ice Palace, in the golden afterglow of the setting sun, shining with a strange light, there are still many white elephants and wolves in the distance are still repairing the final ice wall project, those ghosts who have nothing to do gather under the gluttonous lamp to rest, waiting for the arrival of the big banquet, the ice sculpture of the witch clamour is full of standing, watching everything, and the green light of the gluttonous lamp is like a fate shrouded in everyone's head.
"Don't worry, my junior brother Huang Xian has come here, let him make amends to the fairy at the time of the wedding, and as for the blood of a hundred people, it is not a problem. Bu Nanbei followed the gaze of the snow fairy, appreciating all this with satisfaction.
The floating snow fairy will be suspicious, noncommittal, look at the ice and snow around her, and think to herself, who will be your lady, the floating snow and cold plum will finally bloom in the ice and snow, and then it will become a sea of plum blossoms and a sea of blood.
Bu Nanbei deliberately flirted, took out a green pill from his arms, threw it on the ice, chanted the incantation, the ground suddenly sent out a green seedling, growing in the wind, in the blink of an eye, the branches stretched out to the air, open the branches and leaves, spit out the buds, suddenly bloomed, it was originally a thousand-petal lotus, the petals overlapped, there was the size of a wheel, the petals were large and small, the more dense the heart of the flower, the petals were light red like the girl's blushing face, and the green leaves and red flowers looked particularly beautiful in the ice and snow.
"Solve the wine, can bloom in an instant. Bu Nanbei smiled: "This is a unique skill taught to me by the family teacher yesterday, the thousand-petal lotus of the Buddhist family, if it is placed in Taihu Lake, don't say a hundred people, 10,000 people can also be attracted, the lady said right?"
The floating snow fairy heard him say that his master, secretly screamed that it was not good, if his master was here, he was afraid that the matter of revenge would be greatly hindered, so he glanced at the proud Bu Nanbei, and rolled his eyes at him, "Hmph, carving insect skills." After going down the steps, he walked towards the Youzao Palace without looking back, and the young lady hurriedly followed.
"Lady, when the candles are in the cave room, the husband will definitely be gentle. Bu Nanbei said in the back, laughing to himself.
Suzhou Prefect.
Li Zhiping held the two white and tender little feet of Lu Er's grandmother in his arms, kneeling beside the bed, Lu Er's grandmother on the bed was napping, she didn't know what she was tasting in her dream, she couldn't stop smacking her lips, Li Zhiping looked at the tigress on the bed, and couldn't wait to shoot two knives in her eyes and stick them in her heart.
"Madame, sir, ma'am, rejoice!" the butler burst into the door, shouting incessantly.
Li Zhiping's body didn't dare to move, and hurriedly whispered to stop: "Shut up, be quiet, don't wake up Mrs. to sleep." ”
The housekeeper has long been accustomed to it, and said in a low voice: "Master, there is auspiciousness in Taihu Lake, you can go and take a look." ”
"What auspiciousness?" Li Zhiping hugged the foot in his arms again, "Don't make a mistake, the last time the bell tower was haunted, it was also said to be auspicious at the beginning, and it didn't matter how much silver the old man spent to exorcise demons." ”
"This time it's true, I saw with my own eyes, lotus flowers grow in Taihu Lake, the flower bones are the size of a grinding plate, pink and pink, you say that on this snowy day, lotus flowers actually grow on the ice, isn't this auspicious what is it?" said the housekeeper fifteen-ten.
"Ah!" Li Zhiping believed it this time, and almost threw Lu Er's grandmother's feet out in excitement, Lu Er's grandmother was so frightened that she sat up, "Get out, useless things, you won't be able to serve the old lady to sleep!"
"Madam, this time Xiangrui really appeared, let's go to Taihu Lake to have a look. ”
The shore of Taihu Lake has long been crowded with people, the news of the appearance of the Buddha's light thousand petals lotus in Taihu Lake has spread far and wide, the people of the four miles and eight towns have heard the news and come, they have brought incense and candles to worship, for a time the incense mist is swirling, the crowd is crowded, not to mention that there are thousands of people, just like the bazaar, the lotus flower is surrounded by water.
"Go away, go away, the prefect is here!" The officials pushed and shouted, clearing a road from the crowd, Li Zhifu and Lu Er's grandmother wore mink coats, sea dragon hats, and deerskin boots on their feet, each sitting on the shoulders of the two people, and came to Taihu Lake, only to see that the ice and snow clearing surrounded by the crowd, there was a lotus flower, those lotus branches and leaves are broad, the small ones are like pot lids, and the big ones are bigger than the wellhead, the green leaves are waving in the wind, the greenery is like a lotus, and then look at those lotus flowers, some are light red like the remnant sun, some are crimson like blood, the shades are different, the petals are as many as a thousand weights, one by one is as big as a dustpan, shining red light, one of the branches is actually a stem and three flowers, rare in the world, the Buddha light on the petals appears, against the background of ice and snow, the view is calming and relaxing, and there is a sense of silence.
Seeing that the lotus flower on the ice was so strange, Governor Li and Grandma Lu couldn't help but turn over and lower their shoulders, not wanting the ice to be smooth, the two of them stood unsteadily, and crawled to the lotus flower, bowing their heads down, "Amitabha, thank you for the Bodhisattva's mercy, show auspiciousness, bless us to be promoted and wealthy, and the lower officials must build a temple by the lake to worship, Amitabha!"
The two knelt down, and Li Zhifu stepped forward to help Lu Er's grandmother, and said with a smile: "Ice Lotus, unheard of, this is really a national auspiciousness, a godsend, I will gather the Chinese people in the city tonight to write a good green word, to ensure that the emperor is satisfied." ”
"There are good people here to guard it, so as not to cause extraneous branches and ruin our affairs. Lu Er's grandmother instructed.
Therefore, the prefect of Li ordered the officials to draw a circle around the thousand-petal lotus, and they were not allowed to approach within one zhang, so as to prevent the people from destroying the auspicious rui, and the lord should personally set up three animals, prepare sacrifices, worship the lotus Buddha, and pray for the peace of the country and the people, and the wind and rain are smooth.
The poor people who came to worship were dressed in rags and rags, shivering in the ice and snow of Taihu Lake, hearing that the prefect was so considerate of the people, they all knelt down one after another, worshipping the lotus flower and kowtowing to the lord, Li Zhiping was quite complacent, "This is what this government should do, please get up, please get up!"
