Chapter 5 The flowers bloom and the wine is warm, and you can forget to eat with you
When Xingyan returned to the Lingrui Palace, the dragon girl who was stopped and chatted by the sisters of the Yun Clan of the Water Country was waiting a little anxiously. Although she asked the maid that her companion had gone for a walk in the nearby coral forest, she was anxious when she had waited for a long time and did not return. As soon as he was thinking about what excuse to use to get rid of the group of gossiping fairies in front of him, he saw Xingyan return safely. Seeing that familiar figure again, Lingyi's heart, which was a little empty just now, became more down-to-earth again.
When she stepped forward happily and smiled, the young male fairies next to her who had been peeking at her secretly surprised in their hearts: "Strange, how can a Dragon Palace guard be worthy of such care from Princess Sidu?"
At this time, there was only a moment before the sea blossoms bloomed, and the center of the palace hall, where the guests had originally come and went, was already empty. On the crystal ground, a white and warm jade tripod was brought by Longgong Lux. In the white jade tripod, it is filled with transparent ointment like clotted fat, and there is a clear biqi grass floating on it, the stems are straight and slender, the soft leaves are bright and green, and the stars are holding the moon like a delicate pale gold bud.
Listening to Lingyi, the green grass golden bud in the jade tripod is the sea tan fairy flower that everyone is watching tonight.
At this moment, the guests in the Lingrui Palace had all dispersed to their seats, silent, just waiting to witness the wonders of the sea blossoming. Seeing the silence in the hall, Lingyi was embarrassed to ask why Xingyan was late just now.
After a while, Meng Zhang, the owner of the water mansion, saw that the flower buds in the dingzhong were becoming golden and the flower bones trembled slightly, so he hurriedly waved his hand and spit out a few strange syllables. Suddenly, the night pearl mussels used for lighting in the Lingrui Palace closed their shells together, and the hall fell into darkness when it was neutral.
When there was no light around him, he realized that the original Haitan Immortal Plant in Dingzhong, whether it was a green leaf or a golden bud, was all shrouded in a layer of clear light.
At this time, there was silence in the palace hall, and no one made a sound. Thinking of these scattered cyclamen, although they are well-informed, when they think that the strange flower of the South China Sea in Dingzhong only blooms once in 500 years, they are also calm and calm, waiting for the sea to bloom.
After another moment, Xingyan saw the strange grass with a faint light, and suddenly seemed to be a psychic enlightenment, and the flower buds that had been formed for a hundred years suddenly swayed without wind, as if nodding to the fairy friends on all sides. In an instant, more than a dozen golden rays of light light suddenly shone out from the originally pale golden bones of the sea epiphany, piercing the darkness around them in an instant.
"It turns out that before this sea epiphany blooms, it will shoot out golden light!"
Seeing the unique flowering method of the sea epiphyllum, Xingyan is fascinated by it.
Just as he was waiting for the golden light to burst out and the buds bloomed, he saw that the dozen or so golden light that should have been illuminated unhindered seemed to be subject to a strong gravitational force, and stayed around the green plant for a while, and then suddenly stretched into beautiful golden petals; Then, a strange fragrance overflowed from the entire Lingrui Palace.
Breathing the fragrant fragrance of flowers in his mouth and nose, he looked at the stretched petals and found that in the brilliant golden gas, there were faint bright red rays, outlining the soft lines of the golden petals.
Finally, when they saw the sea blossoms, the cyclamen held their breath and watched for a while, and the light in the Lingrui Palace was repeated. The elixir jade tripod planted with Haitan was carefully removed by the palace wrestlers and placed in other conservatories for careful maintenance.
Next, the banquet of the South China Sea Dragon Palace to invite friends from all over the world officially began. A series of never-before-seen delicacies were delivered to the cyclamen by a bewitching maid.
Waiting for the dishes to be served, the guests of the Four Desecrated Dragon Maidens were hungry, and when the host of the feast greeted them, they began to taste these incomparably fresh underwater delicacies. When he tasted it, when he picked up a cluster of fatty ribbon seaweed, and found that it was constantly pulled out of the plate, and when he was a little unable to eat, an attendant came next to him, handed out a tong, which ran like the wind, and instantly cut the endless kelp into dozens of small sections.
Seeing the waiter's courteous help, Xingyan raised his head and was about to say thanks, but when he saw it, he suddenly froze: it turned out that the waiter's cyan pliers used as a tool actually grew at the end of his arm!
was stunned for a while, and then Xingyan thought that this chelated waiter should probably be a sea crab spirit.
Unlike him, Lingyi was not surprised, and he called the crab essence as if nothing happened, and also cut off the sea vegetables on his plate, and then told Xingyan the name of the sea vegetables: "This is the South China Sea specialty aya belt θΊ (dΗn), it tastes good, you can eat more." β
After enjoying the delicious food, after a while, the friends around the palace hall who had made good friends began to chat again. Like other girls, Lingyi is also a flower lover, and she was very happy to see the moment Jin Haitan bloomed tonight, so she told Xingyan about the allusions and legends of Haitanhua that she knew. When it comes to its gorgeous and incomprehensible flower posture, he has no words to praise: "Yes! The sea epiphany is full of gold, especially the red silk in the petals, which is especially wonderful!"
"You know, the golden energy is an ethereal and easy to disperse, with a red thread leading, maybe the sea epiphany can bloom longer. β
made a high-level discussion from the perspective of the five elements, and was about to discuss further with the dragon girl, but suddenly found a strange expression on the face of the person in front of him: "Huh? Wake up, do you see red veins in the golden petals of Haitan? Why didn't I see it." β
Hearing Lingyi say this, Xingyan was stunned. You know, he clearly saw that there were distinct red veins in the golden petals of the sea epiphany just now. Seeing the expression on his face, Lingyi knew that he was not teasing her. Just as she wanted to inquire with the cyclamen elsewhere, she suddenly heard that in the position of the master in the north, the Marquis of the South China Sea was boasting loudly to a few friendly warriors next to her: "This sea epiphany, there is also a strange place. When it blooms, if it is fateful, it will show good signs. At this time, if a man sees the red line in its petals, it means that he will have a happy marriage with the woman he has met within three days. β
"Oh, really?"
"Of course! Look at Brother Xian's reaction, most of you just saw the red line?"
"Huh...... Brother Meng Zhang laughed, I just heard this allusion for the first time, and I thought it was novel. β
"I see!"
I couldn't hear what they were saying anymore. In the corner of the Lingrui Palace, the young man in the green shirt was now embarrassed, and the girl opposite him was flushed.
"Yike...... That Meng Zhang just likes to talk nonsense. β
After hearing Meng Zhang's jokes, the girl in the ice and snow was like a deer. At this time, the bright girl blushed, lowered her eyebrows, and did not dare to look up at the young man opposite.
Seeing her like this, Xingyan muttered once or twice, and then didn't know how to speak, so he had to sit upright and remain silent. Of course, when Zhengse was sitting upright, Xingyan also paid attention to trying his best not to look at the delicacies in front of him, so as not to be careful, revealing a salivating appearance.
Just when the atmosphere was delicate, he saw the dragon girl in front of him who was full of shyness and had nowhere to go, suddenly looked up at him, and then lowered his head again. At this moment, the originally shy girl, when her eyebrows were lowered, she was a little shy, but she was a little more trance. Looking at her soulless appearance, Xingyan didn't know what she was thinking.
The girl at this moment is a tender bowel.
"What Shui Hou said just now should be within three days...... In the past three days, I should have seen a lot of girls, right? Not to mention Xue Yi and Qiong Wei, in Panlong Town, as well as in the South China Sea Dragon Palace, this guy doesn't know how many girls he has met. β
"Hey, I don't know, who is the mandarin couple in front of me......"
Just when she was suffering from gains and losses, the young man who was thinking about it in her heart suddenly felt that this silence was very embarrassing, so she had an idea and remembered a topic. I only heard Xingyan ask the dragon girl in front of me: "Lingyi, do you know that in this South China Sea, there is a woman named 'Xiying'?"
"Sister Xi?"
Listening to the awakening words, Lingyi blurted out this answer. Seeing her reaction, Xingyan smiled and said, "Oh! β
"Of course, she is the second princess of the Dragon God of the South China Sea. β
At this moment, the girl who was originally in a trance has returned to normal. After a little thought, Lingyi asked with some hesitation: "Wake up, do you ...... Have you seen her?"
Lingyi thought, Xiying was born with a flaw in her appearance, she rarely saw people, and the place she was in was a forbidden place in the South China Sea, and no one was allowed to step into it. And this sister herself is the goddess of storms in the South China Sea, with amazing divine power, if someone breaks in rashly, there will definitely be no bones left. After listening to the words of the awakening words, I was worried about him, but I saw that he said as if nothing happened: "Yes, I went out for a stroll just now, and accidentally met her in a lake valley." β
"Huh, are you hurt?"
Hearing this, Lingyi suddenly became nervous: I can't say, if there is any damage to my companion, I must go to the dragon princess to theorize!
Seeing that she was nervous, Xingyan was a little strange, and replied: "No? β
β......β
Looking at the ignorant appearance of the person in front of her, Ling Yi'er was speechless for a long time, and then asked, "Have you seen her face?"
"yes, and we talked to her for a while β huh?
Xingyan suddenly realized that Lingyi was surprised when he heard his words. Seeing this surprised expression, after pondering for a while, he suddenly thought of the reason, and said: "Lingyi, you, Sister Xiying, are also unlucky; β
"That's no way, I heard that she was born, and she can't be blamed. β
Seeing that Xingyan talked about the misfortunes of others, his face was a little depressed, and Lingyi explained it for him. After pausing for a while, Lingyi suddenly thought, "Ah!"
"So, the girl he's seen in the past three days, but he still has to add Sister Xi?"
Turning these thoughts, when she was a little melancholy, Ling Yi'er suddenly seemed to realize something, and she was suddenly a little embarrassed. Raising his eyes to look at the young man in front of him, he still looked pity, Lingyi returned to his usual cheerful expression, and teased him: "Wake up, is it that if Sister Xiying's face is smooth, you are reluctant to come back to enjoy the flowers?"
"Where!"
Hearing Lingyi's words, the young man suddenly shouted wronged: "I just met her in Pingshui, and besides, I am not a person who judges people by their appearance!"
"Really?"
Seeing his anxious look, Lingyi felt very interesting, so he snorted slightly: "Hmph, who knows you~"
After the anger, she remembered something again, so she asked with interest: "By the way, Xingyan told me the truth, if there was a dark shadow on my face when we first met, would you quickly throw the flute back and ignore me?"
ββToday, in Lingyi's mind, there is already a new understanding for the words that were said to be fierce and not to return the flute. There was such a misunderstanding back then, not because he was lazy and unreasonable, but because he saw that he looked cute and wanted to see more faces.
After asking what he said just now, Lingyi was waiting for the loyal young man to deny it, but unexpectedly, the person in front of him hesitated for a while, and then a annoying grin appeared, tilted his head and just looked at her, and replied in a nonsensical manner: "This...... I have to think about it. Maybe, but I'm not sure ......."
"Why don't you try to put ink on your face when you have time?"
β...... Ignore you!"
Seeing that Xingyan came to tease herself, Ling Yi'er took a sip, and followed the example of Qiong Wei's little sister, pouted, and ignored him anymore - but I didn't know that those cyclamen who knew her past style suddenly saw her appear so delicate, and they were all surprised, and they didn't know what happened today. There are immortals who are good at planning, and they have begun to secretly calculate the astrological aspects to see if there is any confusion today.
Of course, this matter naturally has nothing to do with Feng Shui astrology. If you have to ask the reason, it may be because, just like the spring rain in the night, moisturizing things silently, for this dragon princess who has been in the palace for a long time, it is in such a casual answer, in such an imperceptible joke like air, she has already been deeply rooted in love.
At the time of such a harmonious answer, there was a team of enchanting fairy queens dancing in the Lingrui Palace. Accompanied by a burst of light and melodious fairy music, the singing voices of these South China Sea dancing girls also seem to have the sound of water. Listen to Lingyi said, the song that is being played now is called "Smoke Wave".
At the time of this light song and dance, there was a small answer at the bottom of Po*, which was thousands of miles away. In the quiet Dragon Palace, there was a palace beauty, who said to her respected father-in-law: "Dragon King, that girl in Lingyi has been quite strange recently. This time, she went to the South China Sea for a banquet, and did not bring General Fuyou. β
Hearing her talk about her baby granddaughter, Yun Zhongjun looked happy: "Yes, why is this girl abnormal? β
The palace beauty smiled when she heard this, and replied: "According to Xiang'er's opinion, I'm afraid that Lingyi girl has some thoughts about the water marquis of the South China Sea. β
It turned out that this lady with a beautiful face was originally the goddess of Xiangshui, and now she is the wife of Dongtingjun, the son of the Four Desecrated Dragon Kings, and the mother of Lingyi. Hearing her words, Yun Zhongjun, the Four Desecrated Dragon Kings who were originally smiling, seemed to be a little indifferent, and just asked lightly, "How do you see it?"
"Yulongjun, I miss me, a girl, I didn't have much interest in going to the meeting from all over the world in the past, but this time, as soon as I received the call from the South China Sea, I seemed to be very moved, and I looked like I couldn't wait to leave immediately. What's more, this time she went out, and she didn't even bring General Floating, probably because she was afraid of being disturbed by others. β
"According to Xiang'er, the water marquis of the South China Sea is the same age as my son, and he is also brave, and the waters under his jurisdiction are vast, if we can marry him, it will be of great benefit to Lingyi or the Four Blasphemy Dragon Clan. β
It can be seen that Mrs. Xiang is very satisfied with the choice of this good son-in-law, and since her daughter likes it, she might as well get involved in the future of the Four Desecrated Dragon Clans and persuade the real master of the Four Desecrated Dragon Palace to agree.
"Oh, that's right......"
Listening to the nagging of the mother who cared about her daughter's lifelong affairs, the old dragon who had given a flute to a young man in the downtown area, just said indifferently when he heard the words: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren." We don't have to interfere too much in the matter of Lingyi's marriage. β
Speaking of this, after a slight pause, the four desecrated old dragon Yunzhongjun asked again: "Xiaoxiang, where has your husband been recently?"
Hearing her father-in-law ask about his son, Concubine Xiang hurriedly replied: "Yulongjun, husband, he went to 'Liuyunmu' to inspect a few days ago. According to Yun Mengze's report from the god general, it is said that there are often demons around Liuyun Mu recently, and I am afraid that those demons will be unfavorable to Long Ji in the ranch. β
"Hmm......"
After listening to his daughter-in-law's words, Yun Zhongjun squinted and thought for a long time, then said to the goddess of Xiangshui in front of him: "Dongting'er is doing a good job. β
"It's been a long time since nothing happened, and we, the four dragon clans, should also reorganize and prepare the dragon soldiers. β
Skipping the homely answer in the Four Desecrated Dragon Palaces, and then talking about the bottom of the South China Sea, in the Lingrui Palace, where the Quartet Immortals are entertained, the music during the banquet has changed from the gentle "Smoke Wave" to the majestic "Breaking the Army". When the music of the South China Sea Dragon God breaking the formation sounded, there were two teams of strong wrestlers in the palace hall, stepping on the solemn drum to fight each other.
Different from the Four Desecrated Dragon Palaces, the South China Sea Dragon Domain is very heavily armed because of the disturbance of ghosts. When the dance of the broken army began, a strong-looking dragon helmet warrior couldn't stop shouting, as if he was commanding a military horse on the battlefield. And those majestic wrestlers, under the command of their own leaders and generals, constantly changed their formations, as if they were really fighting with their opponents.
Seeing this, those cyclamen who wandered in the sea were all amazed by the prosperity of the martial arts in the South China Sea. Many of them saw that the Shenjia general who led the dance was the first general of the eight generals of the Dragon God under Shuihou Mengzhang, Pan Xuan.
At this time, the sound of the drum seemed to be beating on his heart, and he felt the majestic and powerful drum sound, and while he was shocked, he was quite puzzled by the appearance of the drum.
It turned out that most of the drum surfaces of the giant drums that were percussive at the moment were inlaid with wooden boards, leaving only a small piece of drum skin for the wrestlers to beat. Strange, I asked Lingyi, only to know that these Mengmu drums are Southern Navy drums, made of Kui cowhide. If there is no wooden plank to cover it, even if it is just a light stroke, the sound of this drum can sound for 500 miles, like thunder. Because of this, the drum of the cow is also called the "thunder drum", and if you pronounce it with all your might, it is not suitable for the pleasure of eating during the banquet.
Listening to Lingyi explain the reason, and then listening to the heart-shaking drum sound, Xingyan was amazed.
In such a strong drum music, the head of the eight generals of the dragon god gradually walked to the position close to the awakening with the flow of the dance array.
At this moment, in the midst of the rapid rhythm of the drums, someone suddenly shouted: "There is a ghost!"
This sudden roar of anger was like thunder, and it actually suppressed the sound of the giant drum of the bell!
