Chapter 389: Lishan's Old Mother
There was still an hour before the start of the Chongyang Banquet, Su Ji hurriedly walked out of the Xuanzong Pavilion, and as soon as he stepped out of the threshold, he saw the busy little eunuchs, each carrying a wine and fruit plate in and out, and the sound of hurried footsteps came and went.
"Hey, hey, hey, be careful! You idiots, don't you know what day it is, dare to make the slightest mistake, watch your heads!"
Hearing a strange shout of yin and yang, Su Ji turned his head to look, only to see the little carp pointing at a group of busy little eunuchs. Suddenly found that Su Ji came over, the little carp no longer commanded others loudly and stingily, hurriedly trotted all the way over, attached himself to a big salute, and greeted with a smile:
"Sect Master, it's still early. You can rest inside, and when the time comes, please beckon you over. ”
Su Ji looked around and asked, "Have you seen four children just now?"
"Sect Master is talking about the four children who came back with Lu Pressure Daojun yesterday?" the little carp thought for a while and shook his head.
Su Ji had the impression that the four children were obviously in the attic, but the work he had done to go to the toilet just now disappeared in a blink of an eye. Could it be that the children knew that they would not be allowed to participate in the treacherous Double Ninth Feast, so they went to the Chongjiu Palace early?
Thinking of this, Su Ji frowned and hurried straight to the Chongjiu Palace. As expected, one leg stepped into the palace gate, only to see Yuan Sheng, Princess Wansheng, Yang Xiao, and the three children excitedly laughing and playing in the banquet, chasing and running around the table.
"Bang!"
Su Ji was bumped into the arms by a child, it was Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao knew that he had made a mistake, and said hesitantly: "Master, you ...... You're here......"
Su Ji let out a wry smile, and said in his heart that this child was heartless, and not long ago he was worried about his father leaving him, but now he was giggling and playing.
Princess Wansheng and Yuan Sheng bowed their heads and exchanged a look, but they didn't expect that the front foot had just arrived in the Heavy Nine Palace, and the master would find the back foot so quickly.
Su Jiben originally didn't want to leave the apprentices with the impression of being a "strict teacher", but now he still has to keep a straight face, after all, this Chongyang banquet is unpredictable, and the children must not be allowed to go to the banquet.
"Wolf, why did you come with them?" Su Ji asked Hua Ru Wolf.
Hua Ruwolf said helplessly: "I can't stop them, if I don't come with them, wouldn't it be more dangerous?"
Su Ji sighed: "I'll only give you half an hour, and when the time comes, I'll all go back to Xuanzong Pavilion!"
The children glanced at each other and cheered as they ran towards a huge piece of chongyang cake in the center of the palace.
The shape of the chongyang cake is a delicate pagoda, which is taller than Yang Xiao and Princess Wansheng, and is the same height as Yuan Sheng.
Yuan Sheng cut a large piece of the red date with the most in the middle layer, ran back with a plate, and distributed it to the other children.
Yang Xiao and Princess Wansheng took it and took a look, only to see that there were small paper flags on the cake, and candles were lit at the four corners, which was beautiful and exquisite, and people couldn't bear to talk about it.
Princess All Saints asked, "Is this something for human consumption?"
Yang Xiao said: "It's not for people to eat, is it for dogs?"
The princess of all saints secretly said in her heart: I don't eat what people eat, I only eat people......
Yuan Sheng smiled, and Lang Lang explained: "I heard that this is called lighting the lamp and eating cakes, and with the shape of the exquisite pagoda, it has the meaning of ascending to the heights. ”
Looking at the three children chatting while eating, Hua Ruwolf couldn't help but fall into memories and couldn't help but think of his former self.
Hua Ruwolf and Su Ji are already participating in the Ninety-Nine Double Ninth Festival Banquet in Shenhou Mansion for the second time. A few years ago, that feast left many painful memories for the master and apprentice. Hua Ruwolf once instigated Su Ji to fight against Su Ji after the Chongyang Banquet, causing Su Ji to be imprisoned in Linglong Tower, and he almost lost his life at the hands of Jiang Xuan.
Half an hour passed in a flash, and Su Ji was about to beckon the children to go back, when suddenly a rush of footsteps came!
Lu Zhuan Daojun took Yunmengshan and his party and hurried to the Chongjiu Palace.
Niu Zhu looked anxious and said, "Senior brother, they arrived early. ”
"They?" the flower wolf was slightly stunned.
Li Rumei replied: "The sect elder is behind. ”
As soon as the words fell, more than 20 sect elders suddenly flashed outside the palace, each dressed in a fiery red totem costume, and their expressions were extremely fierce.
"Let's go!"
Hua Ruwolf urged, and hurriedly left Chongjiugong with the three children.
Su Ji suddenly felt a chill, and the cold hairs on his body stood up!
However, this sudden chill did not come from the twenty or so sect elders, but from the person behind them.
Everyone unanimously gathered their eyes in one place, and saw a woman standing among the red-clothed sect elders, wearing a high silver Liangyi Dao crown, her face covered with a white veil, and only a pair of eyes were exposed.
The moment the two met their eyes, the light in Su Ji's eyes was inexplicably trance.
The woman's hands have been soft and boneless to support the dust, the little thumb and index finger are slightly cocked, in the shape of an elegant and graceful orchid, wearing a white smoke gauze robe woven of light yarn, which can reveal the skin inside, adding a bit of charm.
Suddenly, an old sectarian took a step forward and introduced: "This is the old mother of Lishan, the fairy of the Eight Caves, the congenital Yuan Shi Yin God, the Nine Spirits are too wonderful in the Heavenly Brahma Dou Yuanjun, bathing in the Nine Quhua Pool, releasing infinite light, transforming into nine buds of golden lotus, should appear in the Nine Emperors Dao Body, as the mother of the Big Dipper stars, the comprehensive leader of the Seven Yuan Xingjun, the three realms of merit, and the Derun group, so it is also known as the Infinite Heavenly Venerable!"
Su Ji secretly wondered what a mess, he had never heard of such a long and so many names.
"Old Mother Lishan?" the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord muttered to himself, "Why didn't the little ancestor see this person when he was making trouble in the beacon tower in Lishan back then?"
Jia Lan said: "I heard that there is a ceremony to worship the old mother at the foot of Lishan, and every June 13 is the temple fair of the old mother of Lishan, which lasts for five days, when tens of thousands of pilgrims from all over the country go up the mountain to worship. ”
Lu Zhuan Daojun said: "Fart, fart, how many times have I been to Lishan, and I have never heard of the old mother of Lishan!"
The Hundred Eyes Demon Monarch said: "You haven't even heard of Daojun, doesn't it mean that she is extremely powerful?"
Lu Jian Daojun said solemnly: "You are wrong! Have you ever said a word? First there is Hongjun and then there is a day, Lu Jian Daojun is still ahead! Although my Taoism is not as good as that of Senior Brother Hongjun, I have lived long enough, I have seen all the ancient gods in the Hongmeng period, and there is absolutely no such person!"
I don't know why, the people next to me all felt that Lu Zhuan Daojun's tone was very serious this time, not like bragging, but really determined!
The Hundred Eyes Demon Lord muttered, "What do you mean...... This old mother of Lishan is a deceitful and famous?"
Another sect elder shouted: "The chairmanship of today's Chongyang Banquet should be sat by the old mother of Lishan!"
Lu Zhuan Daojun shouted: "Bastard, there is no place for you to talk here!"
As soon as the words fell, the old mother of Lishan moved her steps lightly, and her steps were very light, like a white cloud blown by the wind, floating in front of Su Ji, sending a wisp of elegant fragrance.
Niu Zhu couldn't help but take two steps back, felt a strong sense of oppression, and frowned: "Could it be that this old mother of Lishan is the backer invited by the one-eyed medical fairy?"
Li Rumei said: "No, if she was that backer, she would have already taken out the jade of creation and transformation by now, and it was logical to sit on the chairmanship." ”
Looking at the back of Lishan's old mother, the corners of Su Ji's mouth inexplicably flashed with a smile, only to feel that this woman seemed familiar.
Lu Jian Daojun frowned and said: "This guy does have some Taoism, but at most it is just a cultivation of the Xuanqing Nine Realms." Look, I'm going to teach him a lesson!"
Su Ji suddenly grabbed Lu Jian Daojun and said with a smile: "...... Let me go. ”
