Chapter 20: The Spirit of the Pitcher (Three Watches)
When the hour comes, the banquet officially begins.
The drums of the dance hall of the song stage are singing in unison, and the dancing fairies are stepping on the clouds and mist, singing and dancing lightly, and the meaning is moving.
The Queen Mother is on the upper seat, and there are guest seats on both sides, the goddess fairy on the left hand side, and the male god fairy on the right hand side, looking at each other across the platform.
Xu was worried that these juniors were restrained, and the banquet started for a while, but the queen mother did not appear.
Because almost all of the people present were peers, everyone was either an old acquaintance or a new friend, and they all talked happily with each other.
It's just that there is such a trend, the male gods and the male gods talk about wine, push the cup and change the lamp, and the goddess and the goddess talk about the world and share gossip.
The Queen Mother's Yaochi Immortal Meeting also has another meaning, which is to grab the errand of the old man of that month, and match these young male and female immortals in the Nine Heavens.
Because of this, the Queen Mother saw that they couldn't take the first step for a long time, so she decided to come out and add fuel to the fire.
"Participate in the Queen Mother, Queen Mother Jin'an. The junior immortals greeted in unison and saluted respectfully.
Although Qing Huan doesn't know much about this, she has always had a bright brain, she moves her mouth when others speak, and she imitates others when they salute, and there is nothing wrong with her.
The Queen Mother's demeanor was full of grace and luxury: "No courtesy." "Raise your hand," now it is the lotus season of Yaochi, the scenery is the most pleasant, the beautiful scenery of good days, and the golden years, don't waste it." β
The junior immortals under the seat echoed the voice, and those who were thoughtful blushed blushing.
"Since you have come to this palace, you don't have to be too rigid about the number of heavenly court etiquette, and you can have fun. After speaking, the queen mother glanced at the maid beside her, and a tray immediately appeared in the maid's hand, and in the tray was a red gold cloisonnΓ© treasure hairpin, along with the hanging jade step.
The Queen Mother took the pearl hairpin, put it in the palm of her hand, and said: "This hairpin has a good name, Phoenix Peony, today the palace took it out and made it a bargaining chip for this pot throwing game." β
Pitching pot is a gambling play that has been handed down from the mortal world, often played at private banquets, in order to help the wine, I didn't expect that the very noble Queen Mother also has such an approachable side.
They are all immortals of the younger generation, and it is their nature to love to play, not to mention, in this ninefold heaven where there are many rules and words and deeds require compliance with the rules, it is rare to have such an opportunity, so I will release it.
The gods turned their hands over the clouds and rained their hands, following the gameplay of the mortal world, everyone can do it, but there is no fun at all, so these big gods and little fairies who like to be lively have pondered a new way to play.
Pitching pot game, pot and arrow is the most important ritual weapon, no pot can not be held, no arrow can not be shot, however, if it is an ordinary pot and arrow, and then extend the distance of projection, I feel that there is still something missing, not enough fun, therefore, I thought of a way, attached to the pot and arrow.
The machine spirit is the most psychic, and it is difficult to be tamed, no matter how accurate you are in your hand, you can't hold the machine spirit, and it is also in vain.
No, a purple-clothed fairy just calmed down the spirit on the arrow, and when he was about to throw the pot, he found that the pot had already run away, and he ran away, and he had to turn around and come back to be funny with the purple-clothed fairy.
The purple-clothed fairy was pushed and teased by the machine spirit, and one was annoyed and angry, regardless of whether it threw a pot or not, and immediately got started in person, to chase the machine spirit that jumped up and down and was naughty.
I'll hold you and see how I clean you up!"
When the arrow saw that the purple-clothed fairy had left it behind, his heart was unbalanced, and it also made the little character out of control, and with the body of the pot, he flew all over the field.
Everyone present laughed out loud.
When Qing Huan saw this, the person who was also laughing turned on his back, so happy that he couldn't find the north.
Princess Yuheng pulled her sleeve and asked, "Qinghuan, do you want to try it?"
"Me?" Qing Huan pointed to himself, "Forget it, I only learned the Cloud Soaring Technique yesterday, so I don't want to be embarrassed in front of so many people." β
"Haha. Princess Yuheng smiled and suddenly realized, "It turns out that you fell from the clouds that day because you couldn't soar the clouds, Xiao Qinghuan, you are too cute." β
Thinking of something again, he asked, "Then you can't soar the clouds, how did you get to the outside of the heavenly court?"
Qing Huan frowned slightly, how did she go, inexplicably, for some reason, she was taken out by that person in the Qiankun bag by mistake, this is extremely difficult to explain, so I had to say simply: "Someone else took me out." β
"Oh. Princess Yuheng nodded, and after a while, she asked again: "Did Bai Huaixian take you out to let off steam, and then you got lost because of your greed for fun, because when the fairy came up to pick you up, you were so angry." β
The corners of Qing Huan's mouth twitched, where is this, a woman in love, she always has to make up for everything to her sweetheart, she doesn't understand, she doesn't understand it.
"Xiao Qinghuan, why do you have such an expression and shake your head?" Princess Yuheng looked at her strangely.
"Nothing. Qing Huan stifled a smile, "But I thought of something very interesting." β
"What's the matter?" Princess Yuheng curious.
"Secret. Qing Huan's index finger was placed on his lips, and his eyes were blazing.
"Cut. Princess Yuheng pouted, "A half-grown child, what secrets can there be, it's just pretending to be an adult." β
Qing Huan grinned, noncommittal.
"But today you are well-behaved, except for always staring at others, you haven't done anything out of the ordinary, Bai Huaijun told you to take good care of you, don't let you cause trouble, and say what you say like a demon king of the world. Princess Yuheng took a cup of osmanthus and handed it to Qing Huan, "Taste this." β
Qinghuan took a big sip, melted in the mouth, sweet but not greasy, and there was still the fragrance of osmanthus after finishing her mouth, yes, she liked it very much. "I'm already well-behaved, and Bai Huaixian's appearance is pure smearing. β
This is what Princess Yuheng, who has known Qinghuan for a short time, can believe it, some time ago, in the Suyao Star Palace, after tricking Taiyin Xingjun into drinking extremely strong wine such as "Lechuan Water", she shaved Taiyin Xingjun's beard while she was drunk, and the person who couldn't go out for many days was not her.
"Bai Huaijun is not that kind of person, he is gentle and elegant, his heart is as careful as a hair, and he is a humble gentleman. Princess Yuheng was shy and timid.
"Yo, hasn't Sister Yuheng always been called Xianshang? When did you change your name and call Bai Huaijun. Qing Huan quipped.
"Yesterday, just now..."Before Princess Yuheng finished speaking, something flew in the direction where they were, and she was startled by the suddenness, "Ahh
And Qing Huan was startled by Princess Yuheng's scream.
It turned out that it was the jade pot spirit that played tricks on the audience.
