Tie the knot in the next life, and write it into a book that will never stop in this life!
——Anonymous When Raozhou City in the twilight lit up more candles, the welcoming team also arrived in front of the Xiliu Lane where the Ji Mansion was located.
When I arrived at the entrance of the alley, I could see clearly the awakening words sitting on the tall horse, and the whole narrow willow street was full of red lanterns. Not only are the lanterns hanging high in front of every house, but even the willow branches along the street are tied with many red light balls. Squinting his eyes, he looked at the end of the street from the red light, and saw that in front of the tall mansion was a colorful lantern, with a building of people and brilliant lights.
Originally, these days, Xingyan Zhang Luo is preparing for marriage, and all kinds of trivial matters are arranged by himself, and he is busy before and after, but he seems to have some illusions, as if he is busy with something that has nothing to do with him. This feeling even lasted until he set off from the front of his house in Horseshoe Mountain, dressed in red and riding on a tall horse and being surrounded by a crowd towards Raozhou, and he only thought about whether all the arrangements were thoughtful. When he reached the front of the willow alley, he saw the figure swaying in the bright light, and for a moment he suddenly became excited, his heart beat faster, his face was hot, and his heart was beating wildly, as if he was about to jump out of his chest. was subconsciously covering his chest with his hands, and suddenly heard an elongated shout from the alley:
"The Bridegroom Arrives ——"
In an instant, firecrackers were lit all over the street, and fireworks jumped into the air and exploded. In the blink of an eye, the entire street was immersed in the deafening sound of firecrackers, and the smell of gunpowder was everywhere. The sound of the firecrackers settled down slightly, and the drummers in the welcoming procession played joyful songs diligently. The horn suona was blowing "Seeing Huan", the gongs and drummers were beating the "Time and Moon Order", and the team that was slowly moving forward before lost its solemnity in an instant, and they all ran forward with the suona drums, rushed past in front of the Xingyan horse, and ran to the Jifu mansion at the end of the fine willow lane, and made a mess with the Jifu family who sent their relatives. The front gate of the Ji Mansion was suddenly full of people and noisy!
When such a joy with the traces of ancient relatives and customs settled down a little, the white horse carrying the sobering words finally came to the front of the Ji Mansion. As soon as he approached, it seemed that many people had been ordered at the same time, and the people who were still teasing each other just now scattered on both sides, and in the courtyard of the Ji Mansion that was open, two groups of singers danced opposite each other from the inner courtyard with a high fever of bright candles, stepping on the red felt on the floor, the cuffs were flying, and their heads were low. When they danced to the door, they all bewitched their waists, rejoiced in their faces, and sang in unison the "Four O'clock in the Midnight" that blessed marriage:
"The spring forest flowers are charming, and the spring birds are sad. The spring breeze is full of affection, blowing me open.
On the balcony, stay in the orchid pond at night. Take the moon to pick hibiscus, and get lotus seeds every night.
Looking up at the paulownia tree, the paulownia flower is very pitiful. May the sky be free of frost and snow, and the sycamore will be solved for a thousand years.
The ice is three feet thick, and the snow is thousands of miles away. My heart is like a pine and cypress, and my love is like that. ”
The singing voice is charming, full of spring. In the midst of the singing and dancing, there was immediately a sturdy old mother full of ayaluo, carrying a phoenix crown and a golden and red silk bride coming from the inner courtyard, trembling towards the gate in the eyes of everyone. When the bride was carried out of the inner house, seven or eight girls with red lips and white teeth immediately rushed out between the singers on both sides of the happy felt, carrying flower baskets, laughing and running left and right before and after the bride, laughing and constantly sprinkling the flower petals in the basket into the air, and suddenly there was a colorful rain of flowers in the brightly lit Ji Fu.
When the radiant bride was sent into the sedan chair without touching the ground, Mr. and Mrs. Ji, who temporarily lent the house, followed to the sedan chair like the parents of the woman in the marriage. When he watched the girl with a red hijab being sent into the sedan chair, the old man Ji, who had recently changed the word "Mingyan", did not care that he was the patriarch of the local wang clan, regardless of the image, he only grabbed the crossbar of the sedan chair and did not let go, and the old tears were rampant. Seeing his sad appearance, in the eyes of uninformed people, he thought that it was really his very cherished biological daughter who left home to marry.
When the old gentleman was in tears, he waited for someone next to him to remind him that the girl in the sedan chair in front of him was going to marry his most proud protégé Zhang Xingyan, and the old gentleman suddenly realized, quickly let go, and urged the sedan chair to go quickly!
When Mr. Ji let go, the greeting team turned out of Ji's mansion, hugging the horse sedan chair and blowing and turning back to Zhang's house in Horseshoe Mountain.
At this time, hundreds of people sent by the Ji Mansion to send relatives joined it, and the momentum was even greater, and the group went straight to Dongcheng. Because of the grand pomp, it took more time than other people's families to welcome their relatives after a toss just now. By the time their group reached the East Gate, it was already dusk. In normal times, the gates would have been closed and impassable.
However, fortunately, the local Taishou had heard of Zhang Xingyan's various deeds, and this was a matter of the Shangqing Daomen that was close at hand, so how could he, a little Taishou, not flatter. Immediately, the city gate, which should have been closed long ago, was now only concealed, and as soon as the procession arrived, the officers and soldiers defending the city hurriedly opened the door, and crowded forward one by one, to say hello to the famous bridegroom on the white horse. All the soldiers looked respectful from the bottom of their hearts, as if their boss had married a wife.
Seeing that the military masters were so funny and open-minded, he was also very grateful in his heart, and when he got off the horse, he took out the red envelopes that he had given to the flower scatterers from his arms, and personally distributed them to the officers and soldiers defending the city.
By the time they said goodbye to the officers and soldiers of Dongcheng, it was already completely dark. At this time, in the direction of the return of the marriage procession, a bright moon hung in the eastern sky, glowing softly orange. The full moon in the middle of the fifteenth month is like a gentle smiling face, looking at these joyful people kindly on the horizon. And out of the city, walking in the wilderness, the sound of gongs, drums and suona in the team spread farther, and the sound echoed in the empty and vast night of Raozhou.
"Hehe......"
"I didn't expect that I Zhang Xingyan would also say today!"
Walking on such an incomparably familiar road in the eastern suburbs of Raozhou, looking at the jubilant team in front of him, listening to the blowing and beating in his ears, Xingyan suddenly had a thousand emotions in his heart.
I still remember being poor, running for food and clothing, and every time I came home from the city, I couldn't hire a car at all. One or twenty miles of suburban mountain roads, all on their own step by step. Because there are too many times to go back and forth, the number of willows next to the road is clearly counted by himself, and the slightly characteristic stones on the side of the mountain road have also given their names. For a long time, I stepped on a pair of tattered straw sandals that I picked up, and I went home to sleep most of the night, although I was facing the same round of moonlight, how could I imagine that I might still have the situation today!
Thinking of this, Xingyan was a little distracted. He was immediately lowering his head and sighing, but he suddenly noticed that the moonlight in the sky seemed to be a little strange, as if it had just become a little brighter. Just as he was still a little confused, the line in front of him gradually stopped, and people began to whisper and point.
"What happened?"
Xingyan raised his head on the horse, looked in the direction they were pointing and discussing, and was immediately stunned!
It turned out that in the vast south of the sky, about the southeast horseshoe mountain range, a dark hillside with the moonlight on its back, I don't know when a firelight flickered "Xi" character, the strokes are huge and distinct, the fire is shining, straight all over the vast hillside, and this side is far away!
"Uh......"
As soon as he put his mind into his heart, his eyes were like lightning, and he immediately saw that there were many people holding torches in their hands in the hills and grasses, and their appearance was strange, almost the same as the strange beasts and demons of the Xuanling Sect that he had known before.
Seeing their faces clearly, Xingyan immediately understood their intentions, and his heart was hot, and he immediately bowed to that side and thanked him temporarily.
And this mountain and river fire character may not be unique to the Xuanling Demon Clan. After walking for a while, the road curved, and when they were a little close to the Poyang Lake, they saw that on the surface of the Poyang Lake, where the smoke and water were sparkling, there were eight golden characters that shimmered brightly, and they saw that each word in their eyes was several acres in size, and it was written:
Needless to say, this must be the intention of the Poyang Aquarium, and when you look at it clearly, it is countless swimming fish with golden algae moss in their mouths, floating in the water. Immediately, Xingyan bowed his hand again on the horse, temporarily thanking him.
Of course, these two strange blessings of the Water Tribe's demon clan were only grateful in Xingyan's heart, not too much surprise, but in the eyes of those who accompanied them, they were stunned one by one, thinking that it was a miracle. So tonight's peculiar marriage ceremony later gave rise to many legends.
Around the middle of the day, the team that went to Raozhou to welcome relatives finally returned to the front of Horseshoe Mountain. When the mighty wedding procession reached the mountain pass, countless fireworks were set off on the top of the main peak of the towering Horseshoe Mountain. Colorful fireworks, blooming in the clear and empty night sky, golden snakes dancing, peonies blooming, silver streamers hissing and flying, like swimming fish;
The good day is auspicious, the moon is full, and the newlyweds welcome in and sing the chapel. The table is full of friends, the wine is high, the delicacies are full, and the delicacies are put around. The golden liquor is injected with fragrant liquor, the jade plate is fresh with silver carp, the feathers are staggered, the silk and bamboo are chaotic, the singer plays the strings, the Coats hit the knots, the long sleeves dance, the singing voice sings, the bottle promotes the banquet, the music drinks tonight, the flying foot drunk the moon, until the middle of the night.
At the end of the song, the people dispersed, and the night was resting, and when the people in the haunted cave house had finished the scene, the back house of the Zhang family fell silent. Under the moonlight, the drunken and slightly drunk lady leaned back, squeaked open the door, and walked into the cave room with a warm spring. The red candle was feverish, and his face was like a burning fire, and when he opened his hazy drunken eyes, he found the golden branch, and felt a panic for no reason. Rao knew that there was a charming big girl, but when she got closer, her heart was still up and down, trembling hands, and slowly and nervously picking off the red skull—when the red silk fell, she saw that it was indeed her familiar jade person, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
I don't know how many winds and waves he has gone through, why is he so nervous now? Even he himself feels a little incomprehensible.
After a period of dizziness and dazzle, he could finally fix his eyes on the shy and timid bride. At this time, he suddenly realized that this girl who was as soft as snow was almost the same as himself, like drunk, and her pink face was as red as a peach blossom in March. The spirits naturally nurtured by heaven and earth are already gorgeous, and when they are reflected by the dragon and phoenix candles in this room, they are even more charming.
“......”
The starry eyes opened slightly, the spring waves swayed, and seeing Mei Ling in the candlelight, Xingyan's body suddenly seemed to melt. In the past, I have seen thousands of bright colors and thousands of graces, but I have never imagined such a moving appearance in front of me. The brilliance of happiness is shrouded, the joyful mind is steaming, and the woman who is already in a peerless state glows with a thrilling light, moving gracefully, and her hair is horizontal, covering up the magnificence of all the furnishings in the room.
In the eyes of Xingyan, there was nothing else, and there was only this shy and pitiful plum blossom fairy.
At such a time when it was so embarrassing, the girl who did not know how her face made the person in front of her still struggle to break down according to her habits, lowered her head, blushed her face, and said softly:
"Hall Master, please let Xue Yi ...... your clothes for you"
"Oh?"
Hearing Xue Yi's words, the depressed hall master suddenly came to his senses.
"Ha ......"
Seeing that Xue Yi was still so humble and polite at this time, while she was amused, she also felt pity in her heart. Immediately, he stretched out his arms and picked up this person who was suitable for Aoxue.
"Hah!"
In front of such an infinitely shy Mei Ling, Xingyan also had to salivate, and confessed to the Sanqing Patriarch in his heart, so he put on a lazy appearance and laughed with her:
"Xue Yi, what did you just call me? Hall Master...... Have you forgotten that we have already worshipped heaven and earth tonight! You call me again to see if this time is right!"
"Woo......"
Being teased like this by Xingyan, the girl was even more ashamed, and her face turned red, but she didn't dare to disobey, and screamed like a mosquito:
"Xianggong ......"
Then he was so ashamed that he buried his head in the arms of Xingyan, and wanted to cry!
"Huh!"
Hearing this, Xue Yi changed his words, and his heart trembled, full of joy, and he responded heavily!
Since then, how to fly to the water, make a clear ditch, stir up the mourning sound in the Haoya and make a wonderful sound in the Dan lips, all kinds of human pleasures and fish and water pleasures are just details, no need to mention them in detail!
The jade mirror is passed on in the world, and the galaxy crosses the twin stars in the sky!
