Good and evil are full of good, all of them are cultivated by me Chapter 127 The Ritual of the Western Regions
In the noise of gongs and drums, Wang Manxiu took a breath, bowed his head slightly, looked at the white skirt beside him, and smiled: "It's the first time for Xiaosheng to see such a thing with his own eyes." β
Zhong Liyan blinked his jade-like eyes slightly, and said softly, "What Mr. Bai said...... Is it a martial arts contest?"
Bai Yi nodded.
"I only knew that this matter had been mentioned in martial arts before. He raised his hand and scratched his neck, and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that there would really be such a 'competition to recruit relatives' in reality...... It's quite amazing. Xiaosheng understands that when marrying a relative, he must be the right person and find a happy family before he can be entrusted with his life; but what does this competition to recruit relatives want? It doesn't necessarily mean that the groom's fists are harder, right?"
Bai Skirt raised her eyebrows, looked at the somewhat incomprehensible look on his face, brushed her sleeves and covered her lips, and smiled: "Mr. Bai is right." However, this competition to recruit relatives has been a long-standing custom in the Western Regions. β
Wang Manxiu blinked slightly, looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, and said curiously: "Miss Yan knows why?"
The girl nodded, pursed her lips and said, "Uncle Hu has told me something before. β
I saw Zhong Liyan take half a step forward, step to the shoulder of the white cloth, cough, and the warbler's voice was eloquent.
She said that in the past, the Western Regions were not very peaceful, and one or two out of ten pedestrians on the road were doing murder and overselling goods, so the families with some money in the Western Regions all wanted their daughters to marry a wishful husband with some skills. Hearing this explanation, Wang Manxiu couldn't help but glance at the masked pedestrians with swords on the street, and thoughtfully held his cheeks.
She also said that although today's competition in the Qin Mansion seems to be using real swords and guns, in fact, most of the competitions are just archery and equestrianism. Don't look at both of these are still rough jobs in the mouths of the literati, but in that era, and even now, who can wear a hundred steps through the Yang and be skilled in bows and horses, which one is from a down-and-out background? If you compare the Qimen, it is even more true - in this world, there may be martial arts hermits with excellent kung fu, but there has never been a Qimen master from a poor family.
I don't know if it's because the Great Dream Emperor, known as the Jade Emperor of the World, gave a 'good' start.
"Pour ...... That's the same thing. β
Wang Manxiu pondered for a long time and nodded approvingly.
He lowered his eyes slightly, looked at the young but beautiful girl in the white dress in front of him, and suddenly smiled: "That Miss Yan, do you plan to compete in martial arts in the future?"
The girl was stunned.
"Huh?"
Faced with this sudden question, Zhong Liyan obviously didn't know how to answer - she raised her head blankly, looked at Wang Manxiu blankly with her almond eyes painted with purple eyeshadow, and opened her lips: "Mr. Bai, Mr. Bai, what do you mean......"
"At that time, let Xiao Sheng come and sign up. β
Bai Yi tilted his head slightly, shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
Suddenly, a breeze arose, raising the yellow sand on the ground, blowing the veils on the shoulders, and blowing the branches and buds on the trees.
saw the girl, first her eyes slowly widened, then her hands pressed to her heart, and finally her fair face quietly flushed with a layer of redness.
She let out a soft 'um-'.
I saw the white clothes raising their lips lightly.
Three steps behind the two whites, the two brocade guards, who never wore brocade clothes, also exchanged glances intentionally or unintentionally, and smiled lightly.
Wang Manxiu exhaled lightly, brushed the corners of his sleeves blown by the wind, and turned around to look at the lively ring.
Suddenly, the drums sounded, and the hour came.
In front of the grand mansion, two brightly dressed old servants grasped the brass doorknob and slowly pulled it open.
In the gate, there was a man and a woman.
The man, with a brown coat and a black hat, has a serious and slightly restrained face, while the woman, with a red dress and a vermilion cover, has a concave and convex figure, and stands in a free and easy posture, not at all like a deep boudoir bride who has never seen the world.
When the door was opened, he saw the old man walking in front of him with his hands in his hands, and the bride in full costume walking behind. Two maids in Tsing Yi walked briskly from the courtyard and followed behind the bride. The maid next to the left hand is holding a light red hydrangea with a golden red phoenix tail tattooed on it, and the other is holding the heavy daughter of the altar, Hong, and her steps are a little difficult.
The original noisy noise came to an abrupt end the moment the door opened, revealing the red. Everyone, whether they wore the red flower on their chests or not, whether they were men or women, almost all looked up at this red, their faces full of longingβof course, the white-clothed face standing at the outermost part of the crowd still had the same half-understood, confused appearance as if they did not understand.
Then, I don't know which wild wolf's Jianghu life first pulled his sharp voice and shouted "Jade Bone Girl!", and then the crowd that quieted down for less than a few moments suddenly exploded again, and the high-pitched shouts of "Jade Bone Girl! Look at me!" "Miss Qin! Marry me!" "Sister Qin! Sister Qin is getting married!" The high-pitched voices were like waves of water, and they were heard again and again.
Although Wang Manxiu already had a few tricks in his heart about the bride's popularity when he saw the crowd in three circles around the ring, when he saw the hundreds of people cheering and delighting together and making earth-shattering sounds, he still unconsciously took half a step back, swallowed his saliva, and sighed lightly 'good popularity'.
"It's called...... Qin Yugu?"
Looking at the bride in the red dress who slowly walked to the center of the ring, the white dress thought for a while, looked sideways at the white dress beside her, and asked, "Miss Yan, do you know her?"
Bai Skirt immediately nodded, and said softly: "Sister Qin's immortal posture is very famous in the Western Regions. β
Wang Manxiu blinked his eyes and chin and suddenly smiled: "Are you famous for Miss Yan?"
Zhong Liyan's face flushed, his fingertips pinched his sleeves, and he hurriedly whispered, "Mr. Bai is making fun of me again." β
"No. β
Wang Manxiu raised his lips and smiled, looked back at the two of them in Jinyi, and said, "Zhang Shan, Li Shi, do you say, is Miss Yan more beautiful, or is the bride in the ring more like a flower?"
The two brocade clothes immediately made a decision, and without thinking, they immediately clasped their fists and nodded, and said in a low voice: "It must be Miss Zhongli who is more captivating!"
The girl's face flushed for a moment, and the white clothes beside her laughed happily.
I saw Zhong Liyan biting her lip, lowering her eyes and whispering: "Sister Qin, Sister Qin, in addition to being beautiful and graceful, she is also an outstanding Xuanshi. Although her Qimen realm is not as profound as the Three Saints and Seven Heroes, she must be a hundred enemies who can take charge alone. β
"A hundred enemies?"
Wang Manxiu was slightly stunned, unconsciously lifted the black sheath Qinghe, raised his hand and pressed it on the wound on his chest, circulated a little bit of breath in his body, and said silently in his heart: That should be about the same as the current me, evenly matched-
Before Bai Yi's thoughts fell, a stinging pain rose from his dantian unexpectedly, penetrated deep into his chest and abdomen, and gave him a thrill.
Wang Manxiu hurriedly stopped his breath, shook his hand, took a long breath of turbidity, and shook his head.
Well...... I guess I'm better than I am now.
Bai Yi shrugged helplessly.
No longer thinking nonsense, he looked up at the ring, and saw that the dancing knives and sticks who had been active before retreated to the stage, leaving the center of the ring to the middle-aged man in a brown robe and the red-dressed bride behind him.
With the sound of two tiger skin drums, the noisy ring gradually fell silent.
The middle-aged man took half a step forward, glanced at everyone in the audience, cleared his throat with a fist, and said, "Welcome, heroes!"
I don't know if it's because of nervousness, the man's voice trembled slightly.
"Today is the great day of my Qin family, and it is also the day of great joy for one of you......!
The middle-aged man coughed, glanced at everyone in the audience again, and locked his eyebrows in contemplation for a moment.
"I won't say the rest of the congratulatory messages now! After all the heroes have decided on the fate of my daughter's jade bone, I will say it in detail one by one! Today's martial arts competition recruits relatives, the rules are very simple, the two of them can use all kinds of martial arts, all kinds of strange doors, as long as they can knock down the red flower on the opponent's chest, they will win! The one who wins the most times, if no one is willing to challenge him again, is today's groom official!"
The man's voice fell, and a loud shout of hello suddenly sounded from the audience.
Wang Manxiu on the side blinked thoughtfully.
I thought that the one who defended to the end won, but the one who defended the most times won...... It seems that it should be to prevent some opportunists from shoddy, right?
Wang Manxiu narrowed his eyes and looked around at everyone.
It's also ...... Few are 'good'.
Bai Yi sighed lightly and shrugged his shoulders.
But whether it's good or not, it's not up to him to join in the fun.
Just as I heard a 'start!' from the ring, two tiger skin drums exploded one after another, and several figures flew up the wall, jumped up in the air, and rushed to the ring.
