"At 8 o'clock in the evening on March 10th, Guan Pingchao will meet you in Sanjiang Pavilion" -- book friends who are free remember to go to Pingchao to cheer for them when the time comes! I am most afraid that no one will come, it will be too shameless. ：）

※※※

As soon as the sky is bright, it is the moment when Zhenyang County opens the altar to ask for rain. But during this night, Xingyan tossed and turned, and it was difficult to sleep.

The heartfelt words of Peng Gong in the Peng Mansion study before have been echoing in his ears all the time. Lying on the bed, with his hands crossed behind his head, looking up at the dark roof, the young man's heart was full of ups and downs:

"I didn't expect that the monster last night would have a husband and wife with Miss Peng!"

In the study just now, I just listened to Peng Xiangong for a while, and I didn't have time to think about it. But now that I calm down and think back to what I have seen and heard in the past few days, I have some doubts in my heart at this moment:

"Although every time the demon spirit comes, it will cast a mist of nightmares, but Miss Runlan ...... I don't know you're being defiled?"

To say that this Shangqing Hall master who was lying on the couch, although he had been in the building for a while, he also knew a little about many male and female affairs, but after all, he was still underage, and he really had no way of knowing very well about these daughters' family affairs. It's just that Rao is like this, and now I think back to Miss Peng's various sorrows in the past few days, especially when I recall the lonely and sparse song "Youlan", the young man who is particularly sensitive to music and rhythm intuitively feels that the woman's sorrow to the bone will never arise only because Peng Gong wants to marry her.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think about the matter of Peng Gongxu's relatives again. The quiet spring night, unlike the chaotic situation in Fang Cai's study, the young man finally had the opportunity to calm down and think about it seriously. Speaking of which, this Lord of the Four Seas, who seems to be well-versed in the world, is the first time to face such a lifelong event for men and women. Compared with those people who are sophisticated in the past, or who are extremely familiar with the customs of the market, there is really no precedent for reference to the important matter of marrying a wife.

After a long time of hard thinking directed at his heart, finally in a faint moonlight, the young man finally found his answer:

“...... Well, although Miss Peng Runlan's family background is rich and her talents are good-looking, and I am just a poor boy, this marriage event is really different from bargaining in the market, and it is necessary to take into account the joy of men and women, and the love is compatible. At this point, as soon as Miss Peng saw me, she hid her face and left, how could she talk about the slightest love! If that's the case, then it's better to leave it at that......"

"As for the worry of Peng Gong, in fact, the main worry is that the monster is stalking. As long as I do my best to get rid of the demons for him, then he can choose a good woman to marry. ”

After some thought, Xingyan finally came to this decision to have the best of both worlds.

However, although the conclusion had been reached, in the young man's mind, this thought was only about affection, and as for Miss Peng's defilement, it was not her own fault, and she did not pay much attention to it. Perhaps, even he himself did not realize that the indifference in his heart to the chastity of that man was the proof that he had no affection for her. You must know that if you really make a heart-to-heart promise, even the most open-minded man in the world will never be like him about his daughter's family, just a glimpse in his heart and a smile. In that case, even if you can finally forgive, you must have gone through an extremely painful torture and struggle in your heart.

The young man who had just known about love affairs could not now pay attention to these many truths, and at this moment, he only cared about another big question in his mind:

"Speaking of marrying a wife, alas, I only have one child in my Zhang family. Although he has temporarily entered the Taoist Gate now, he will marry a wife and have children in the future and continue the incense. But where is the good woman who is in love with me and willing to marry her......

With such a slightly sad thought, the boy soon fell asleep.

At this time, the two girls in the wing room next to him had not yet slept. At this moment, even Kou Xueyi, who has always been silent, somehow, is constantly whispering to another excited little girl. The two daughters' families, in accordance with their respective understandings and standards, are discussing with great interest the pros and cons of their cousin's marriage to Miss Peng.

Before I knew it, I heard one or two roosters crow faintly outside the dark rhombic window.

"Ah~"

Hearing the rooster's crow, Xiao Qiongwei let out a low cry, and hurriedly proposed to her sister that they had to fall asleep as soon as possible, otherwise the next day the hall master's brother would see that they had not slept all night. Thus, the trivial night talk between the sisters ended with the first rooster crow.

These sleeping people in Zhenyang County actually didn't know that in the darkest time before dawn came, dozens of miles away, there was a sturdy strange man with broad eyes and a broad nose, covered with scales, from a secluded pool.

Just about thirty or forty miles away from Zhenyang City, this strange-looking monster suddenly stopped, and then let out a low roar, and suddenly his body skyrocketed, standing there like a hill and stopping. At this time, the half-shallow water in the Zhen River only reached the place where his wide belt was.

After a pause, I saw this strange god with mana reaching the sky, raising the head of the big fence, opening the big mouth like a pot, and swallowing it towards the sky. As his huge mouth opened and closed, the clouds formed by the night dew on the horizon seemed to be pulled by an invisible giant hand, and all of them continued to gather towards him.

After sucking the last wisp of clouds from the sky into his belly, the djinn raised his hand and wiped the corners of his mouth, and rubbed his stomach again, as if he was full of wine and food. After that, taking advantage of the night, the black-armored monster god jumped on the crest of the waves again, waving his slightly inflexible arms, dancing with his hands, and began to cast spells. After a while, I saw that there was still some wind and waves in the Zhenshui River, and there was no trace of fine waves within a hundred miles, and it was as calm as the stagnant water of an ancient well!

After doing the routine homework of the past few days, this strange god who swallowed the clouds and waves returned to his form. After sneaking in the water for more than an hour, when the morning sun first shone on the earth, the strange god drove a gust of wind and flew straight towards Zhenyang City.

When there were still more than ten miles away from Zhenyang City, this god monster pressed the limelight and fell to the white yellow mud post road under his feet. When he landed, this spirit monster had already transformed into a young Taoist in robes, holding a whisk in his hand, and swayed all the way in the direction of Zhenyang City.

So, in the middle of the hour, the county government record history who was responsible for transcribing the list of this rain ceremony ushered in the first rain mage who was named:

"The contemptible Fan Chuan, alias 'Huhai Sanren', is here to testify. ”

was bored with the history of the record, and when he heard this, he hurriedly found Fan Chuan's name and surname all the way in the pre-made book, and drew a circle behind him, so he smiled and said respectfully to the young master in front of him:

"Fan Daoye, according to the order of your newspaper in the county government before, you are ranked ninth. Someone, invite this rain lord to take a seat!"

As soon as the history of the record shouted, a servant came out and led Fan Chuan to the corresponding seat.

At this time, the sky has been brightened, and the red light in the eastern sky illuminates most of the sky, and also illuminates the newly erected rain platform in front of the Dragon King Temple.

The only water dragon king temple in Zhenyang City is located in the southern suburbs of the county, very close to the Zhenshui River, only about two or three miles away. The temple of the dragon king, which has just been repaired, is completely new; the red pillars and yellow walls, the eaves of the flying pavilion, from a distance, look at the shape of the word "亼", but it is more magnificent than the small temple before it was burned down. The officials and people of Zhenyang, who have suffered from the drought, all think that the Longwang Temple is a warning to them from the gods in the water, and no one dares to cut corners in this reconstruction.

The ceremonial platform for the rain ceremony is set up in front of this magnificent Dragon King Temple, with some green grass and flowers on it, and some clear water buckets.

Although the official opening of the altar was in the middle of the hour, and there was still about half an hour before now, the open space in front of the high platform of the temple was already crowded with people who came from all over the country to watch the rain ceremony. As time went on, the crowds in this vast wilderness gathered more and more, and in a short time it was already a sea of people, and the noise shook the sky, so busy that the soldiers of the government were so busy that they ran away with their voices shouting and running away, trying their best to block a passage to the high platform of the altar.

There are so many people who have rushed here early in the morning, but it is really because these ordinary people usually do not have much entertainment, and now when they encounter such a mysterious and exciting thing as asking for rain, how can they not rush to come early in the morning with dry food on their backs? What's more, this bustle today is not as lively as before; after the drought has lasted so long, everyone is miserable, and who does not hope that the mage and Taoist priests recruited by the county lord with a lot of money from his beloved daughter can ask for some rain from God for them?

Because of this, there is devotion in this bustle today, and there is not even a single vendor who is patrolling and selling.

Unlike the crowd in the south, the Dragon King Temple is now extremely quiet, with only one temple to walk back and forth in it. It was so quiet because of the fire that burned to death several disabled beggars who were used to boarding in the temple. Therefore, I don't know if the gods blame the people in the temple for blaspheming, so the county lord of Peng ordered that in addition to the temple blessings, if it is not for incense worship, then idle people are not allowed to stay in the temple.

Without further ado, just after that Fan Chuan was named, more than a dozen other Taoist warlocks came one after another. At this time, these mages who came from the list were all sitting in the order of order, the three rows of carved wooden chairs closest to the high platform.

At the end of the day, Peng Xiangpu, the lord of Zhenyang County, who presided over this grand event of praying for rain, finally arrived surrounded by a group of county officials. In order to show his piety, it is said that the county lord Peng did not ride a horse and sit in a sedan chair, but only walked all the way from the county government in the city to here.

In front of the Dragon King Temple, Peng Xianye smiled slightly at the young man among the dozen mages in front of the Dharma platform, and then sat down in the umbrella seat specially prepared for the official family, accompanied by the chief bookkeeper.

This person who has attracted the attention of Peng County is naturally the advocate of Shangqing Hall. At this moment, Xingyan also had the mentality of trying his best to participate in this rain prayer ceremony. As far as he is concerned, although he has used several "feng shui guides", Zhenyang has suffered natural disasters and the drought is quite strange at this time, so he is not sure whether this small spell taught by Lingyi girl can work in such a large range in one fell swoop.

At this time, Xingyan was sitting on the wooden chair marked "ten", just one place after Fan Chuan. The two girls, Qiong Wei Xueyi, were each dressed as Taoist children, standing behind him. Now there is still a period of time before the official start of begging for rain, Xingyan felt a little bored, so he turned his face and gossiped with Qiong Wei Xueyi.

The young man's solemn words, and the giggling sound of the little girl, when they reached the ears of those Taoist mages who were sitting in a precarious position, couldn't help but make them frown slightly. These traveling mages inevitably complained a little about the county lord in their hearts, saying that on such an important occasion, why did they let in a few young men and women. is slightly different from them, the "Huhai Sanren" who didn't say a word, if you look closely, there is still a bit of anger hidden under that confidence and arrogance at this time.

Besides, just when Xingyan was teasing and answering Qiong Wei's little sister, he suddenly heard someone shouting like thunder in his ear:

"Okay, you're a stinky Taoist, but you're hiding here and you're happy!"

The young man was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know what was happening for a while. Just as he looked to the side with a blank face, he saw a village man with a rough face, who was shouting angrily at him not far away:

"Okay, you lazy person! I lifted my sister's veil, and I dared not marry her!"

As he spoke, the man swept past the crowd of chairs and stools, rushed up like a whirlwind, and grabbed the young man by the collar!

“...... Please let go of this good man - I don't know you?"

was caught off guard, and he didn't have time to react. Just when he was at a loss, he saw that the man increased the strength of his hand and shouted:

"Don't pretend to be confused - the woman outside Willow Village who takes off the veil is my sister!"

"Ahh

That's when Xingyan remembered what was going on. Looking sideways at the back of this man, I saw a village girl in the crowd of onlookers, looking intently here.

"Ahem, this brother, aren't you forced to marry? I really don't mean to marry your sister!"

When encountering such a rough man, Xingyan couldn't cry or laugh. I was asking him to let go, but I heard the man ask angrily:

"Really don't marry?!"

"Just don't marry!!"

At this time, the young man was also provoked by the strong man in this village, and his words were not as patient as before.

"Good boy, I really don't admit it! Then I'm Liu Hu, and I'll beat you until I become my brother-in-law!"

Listening to his intimidation, the young man with strong blood did not show weakness:

"Okay, let's call and give it a try!"

So, all the masters next to him were dumbfounded, looking at this well-dressed young Taoist priest in a daze, he rolled up his sleeves, and suddenly wrestled with the stupid village man all the way, and staggered to the open space next to him to order a fight!

And in this dusty atmosphere, there is a little girl next to her, jumping there and cheering for her "Brother Xingyan", needless to say—— this enthusiastic little girl is the little Qiongwei in the Four Seas Hall. Although this little girl still doesn't agree with her brother's explanation that she doesn't marry the veiled sister, she naturally doesn't hesitate to stand on her brother's side when she sees someone coming to fight!

Next to the little girl who kept jumping and shouting, there was still her Xue Yi sister, and at this time, this plum blossom fairy had plucked the green wood hairpin in her hair, and was nervously watching the battle situation beside this mess of smoke and dust.

“......”

At this time, the most open-mouthed among the onlookers was this Master Peng Xiangpu Peng. Peng County, who had seen the young man's powerful methods, didn't expect him to use superb spells, and he and this village man who didn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth were really just fists and feet. In a moment's daze, the county lord forgot to order the troublemaker to be arrested.

It was only a moment later, and the unexpected episode before the rain ceremony was over. After the endless "ping-pong bang" sound stopped, I heard a rough voice say in surprise:

"My mother, I can't imagine that my brother-in-law is so powerful!

So the man who was forced to marry returned with a blue nose and swollen face, and said to his sister, who was waiting for good news:

"Sister, let's change someone, don't pick this Taoist priest to be my brother-in-law. I didn't think that this person was so powerful, if he became your man, if he bullied you in the future, my brother wouldn't be able to protect you!"

As soon as his honest words came out, the crowd of onlookers next to him laughed neutrally!

In the midst of this laughter, the young man who had won the game patted the dust on his body, helped his crooked crown, snorted, and returned to his seat triumphantly.

Listening to the congratulations of the two female Dao boys to the young Daoist, most of these warlock mages who belonged to the same Dao Sect in the field felt a little ashamed for a while. Among them, there are several Taoist priests who secretly thought in their hearts:

"Bad luck, such a fist and foot fight, it really disgraces the face of our Sanqing Daomen - such a villager, my 'Splitting Tianshuo' is enough!"

“...... Just this stupid man, a poor trick 'popular in the world' will definitely blow him out of sight!"

In the midst of all these disdainful eyes, there was one person who thought about the situation just now, but he couldn't help but be stunned-

This person is not an outsider, it is the "Huhai Sanren" next to the victorious young man, Fan Chuan.
