Chapter 41: Bai Yuanshen
After the two finished eating, they wandered around the street for a while, due to the lack of meals, Yun Zhen's stomach was still a little unfed, looking at the snacks along the road, Yun Zhen was ready to open his belly and eat in all directions.
Ye Wucheng, who was following behind Yun Zhen, looked at the cute little head of the woman in front of him, and the coldness that lingered for a long time in his eyes melted little by little.
Glancing at the light that was about to slant westward, Ye Wucheng's heart flashed with warmth, and a touch of sunshine that had never warmed him came through, he knew that this woman was not the cloud pillow sister he knew before, but the softness on her body and the words she said to protect him made him a little trance, maybe this life would be like this.
Yun Zhen looked back and saw Ye Wucheng who was infinitely sad in her eyes, she tilted her head and looked at Ye Wucheng, unable to understand why this bright and gentle young man had such sad eyes.
"What's wrong with you?" asked Yun Zhen.
Ye Wucheng came back to his senses and shook his head, the dimples on his cheeks inadvertently made him feel more haggard: "No, I just miss my brother." ”
Yun Zhen stopped and was about to stuff the candied fruit into his mouth, and said, "Can we not mention the person who spoils the scenery?"
Ye Wucheng smiled: "Why did my brother kick you out?"
Yun Zhen turned around and said as he walked: "I helped Jiuyou so much, your brother didn't say thank you, so he put me in Jiuyou Mansion who had been in a coma for three days, and told her to let her leave by herself when she woke up." ”
Ye Wucheng looked curious: "Then what did you help Jiuyou? Brother won't be so ruthless." ”
Yun Zhen looked back at Ye Wucheng, and after thinking about it, there was nothing that he couldn't say: "There are resentful souls in Lethe, you know, I helped him beat back so many resentful souls, and he fainted because of excessive spiritual power consumption, do you say that your brother is doing personnel?"
"Really, that brother has gone too far. ”
Yun Zhen, who was concentrating on walking forward, didn't notice the ruthlessness in the eyes of the man behind him when he heard this.
"yes, that's too much. Yun Zhen said angrily.
Ye Wucheng took two steps forward, looked at Yun Zhen and said, "I can't see it, you're quite powerful." ”
Yun Zhen raised his chin: "That's." ”
"Are you all so powerful?"
Yun Zhen shook his head and said, "My mana must be the worst in the mountains and rivers. Yun Zhen thought about it, although there are only two people and the fox brother in the mountains and rivers, there are many elves, and his spiritual power is much stronger than the elves.
"Really?"
"Yes. ”
The man's casual questioning, the indifference in his eyes and the sinking smile made the man more vicious, and he didn't see the bright smile at the dinner table at all.
Yun Zhen didn't look back, still looking at the dazzling pavings everywhere.
With slightly drooping eyelids, he put on the harmless white face of humans and animals, Ye Wucheng caught up with the cloud pillow in front of him and said, "Sister Yun, let's go to the gate of the palace city in front and take a look, I heard that there are floats in the street that have been prepared." ”
Yun Zhen nodded a little excitedly: "Okay, okay." ”
The crowded flow of people went to the gate of the palace city, and Yun Zhen and Ye Wucheng walked to the float, looking at the float decorated with white flowers and white cloth, they couldn't help but smile: "It's really wonderful." ”
"Why do you say that?" Ye Wucheng said with a disdainful look on his face as he looked at Yun Zhen.
Yun Zhen pointed to the float and said, "White flowers, the gods don't know and think it's a funeral." ”
Ye Wucheng laughed out loud and asked, "As far as I know, this is the highest etiquette of the Bai Yuan Festival, and only the float of the Bai Yuan Divine Throne is pure white. ”
Yun Zhen raised the corners of his lips and smiled: "Pure white, I want to see what kind of immortal this is." ”
"Doesn't Sister Yun know this immortal?" Ye Wucheng asked.
"I don't know, it's the first time I've heard that there are immortals who are willing to come to the world to be officials, and I don't enjoy the glory and wealth of the Nine Heavens, don't tell me that this is to sympathize with the people, I really haven't heard of it. Yun Zhen shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Besides, it's the first time I've seen someone stealing business with Yue Lao. ”
Ye Wucheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Maybe it's really an immortal, but you haven't seen Sister Yun." ”
Yun Zhen stretched out his head and looked forward, and replied casually without looking back, "I hope so." ”
The two of them crowded into the pavilion on the side with the flow of people, and the cloud pillow gnawed corn and waited for the time to arrive.
The last touch of red sunset sinks, people are more excited when the night rises, the lights are on, and the prosperity of Yunjiang City tonight is no less than the noise of the New Year.
After another hour or so, some people dressed up came over, with some strange runes painted on their faces, and Yun Zhen looked at it curiously, but still couldn't understand it.
Seeing that the people around them were wearing their carefully selected masks one after another, Yun Zhen and Ye Wucheng put on their masks and laughed at each other, and Yun Zhen said, "The mask is more like a sister and brother." ”
Ye Wucheng, who blocked half of his face, was more calm, but his voice was still clear: "Maybe it was really a family hundreds of years ago." ”
Yun Zhen laughed and quipped, "Maybe." ”
The streets with gongs and drums are very lively, and as one of the best events in Nanshu Yunjiang, people naturally attach great importance to it.
After a while, the solemn palace gate opened, and a sedan chair was carried out by the stars holding the moon, and Yun Zhen looked at this posture: "It won't be the emperor who came out." ”
An uncle beside Yun Zhen said: "Girl, you are laughing, how can this be the emperor, this is Bai Yuanshen himself, this year he will personally come to the street to pray for our Nanshu." ”
Yun Zhen grew his mouth in surprise: "This posture even the prince doesn't have such a big shelf?"
"You don't understand this again, our Nanshu enshrines Bai Yuanshen, and Bai Yuanshen is naturally above 10,000 people under one person in the court. ”
Yun Zhen laughed embarrassedly twice: "I really don't understand this." ”
At this time, Ye Wucheng gently patted the cloud pillow and said, "It's out." ”
Yun Zhen stood on tiptoe and poked his head forward, only to see a man being helped up to the float, the man was dressed in white, wearing a white cloak like a sack on the outside, and a high hat like a white gauze hat on his head.
Seeing this, Yun Zhen laughed: "White, also wearing linen and filial piety, this is a blessing or a white thing." ”
Bai Yuanshen sat on the float, raised his right hand with the orchid finger, and said in a strange voice: "Rise-"
At the sound of an order, gongs and drums were noisy, firecrackers rang out, and people dressed strangely began to dance in the style of "Demons Dance", and the parade officially began.
If Yun Zhen hadn't looked at Bai Yuanshen's burly figure on the float, just looking at this bewitching figure, the elegant orchid fingers and the voice of men and women, Yun Zhen would not have understood that this was a man.
As the flow of people moved, Yun Zhen looked at the passers-by who were worshipping along the road, wearing a mask and couldn't hide his excitement, he looked up at Ye Wucheng, who was wearing the same mask as himself, and asked, "You look at this immortal, do you think it looks like it?"
Ye Wucheng looked at the people on the float again and said, "I'm not a Nine Heavens Immortal, since he is so spiritual, maybe it's true." ”
Yun Zhen pursed his lips and said, "Yes, you haven't been to the Nine Heavens either, but from what I can see, this Bai Yuan God is definitely not a regular immortal." ”
Ye Wucheng's eyes behind the mask sank and asked, "How can you see it?"
