Chapter Twenty-Nine: Marriage
Yunmeng City, the Hongmeng Hall in the City Lord's Mansion.
There were two people standing in the main hall at this moment, silent for a long time. Standing above the main hall was a very elegant middle-aged monk, and below the main hall was a young man with a beautiful face.
"Zhao Tian, what do you think of the City Lord's Mansion?" the middle-aged monk suddenly asked.
"After 10,000 years, the City Lord's Mansion is one of the top ten cities in the East Star Continent today, there are many elite soldiers in the mansion, and it is also the first gateway for our human race to fight against the demon tide. Zhao Tian talked eloquently.
When the middle-aged monk heard this, he was not happy, but his face was a little strange.
"Then you would like to join my City Lord's Mansion. The middle-aged monk asked with a serious expression.
Zhao Tian was a little stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect the city lord to suddenly ask like this, and he didn't answer for a while.
"Lord of the city, the younger generation was rescued by the master, and grew up in the Izumo sect since childhood, and the senior brother was very good to me, I never thought that one day I would leave the Izumo sect, even if I died, it would be impossible to leave the Izumo sect. Zhao Tian said solemnly.
When the middle-aged monk heard this, his expression was cloudy.
And Zhao Tian, who was below the main hall, was also a little panicked at the moment, facing the top figures in the East Star Continent, he categorically refused his request, this is probably the first person in the East Star Continent. But Zhao Tian was not afraid, the kindness of the master was finally Taishan, even if he died, it was impossible to betray the master, so Zhao Tian also refused the request of the middle-aged monk.
Just when the atmosphere was slightly awkward, a sudden sound of footsteps came from outside the door and interrupted the two of them's contemplation. I saw a girl dressed in red hurrying from outside the main hall.
"Father, I said why don't you accompany your daughter to enjoy the flowers, it turns out to be here. The sound of a silver bell came from far to near.
Zhao Tian heard the sound and saw that the girl was dressed in red, her skin was very white, her pear vortex was smiling, and her face was beautiful. , I can't help but look stupid, this is the second time Zhao Tian has looked at a beautiful woman and is crazy, I think it must be that I have lived in the mountains for a long time and have never seen a woman, so I have a little gaffe for a while.
"Xi'er, I'm meeting a guest, who let you in, your third brother?" The middle-aged monk looked unhappy when he saw the girl in red coming.
Xi'er saw that her father was angry, and suddenly pouted.
"Father, what you say is not a word, you clearly promised me to accompany me to see the newly blooming plum blossoms, and if you don't accompany me, you will murder me. Xi'er made a gesture and wanted to cry.
Zhao Tian looked at the father and daughter in the hall, the atmosphere was abnormal, and he immediately said: The city lord can't blame Miss, the man has a promise, and he wants to come to the city lord to delay going to enjoy the flowers with Miss just to see me, the person to blame is me, and I hope that the city lord will not blame Miss again.
The middle-aged monk's expression eased when he heard this, and the girl in red was no longer sad, but looked at Zhao Tian carefully with a pair of big eyes.
Zhao Tian finally woke up from his intoxication, and at this moment, he was watched by Xi'er, and he couldn't help but be confused again.
"Ho," the middle-aged monk coughed.
Xi'er found that the atmosphere on the field was a little awkward, and quickly withdrew her eyes.
"What's wrong with me, why do I keep staring at this kid, blame this kid, not only don't dodge, but also keep watching me. Xi'er's heart fluctuated, and her face turned red in an instant.
And Zhao Tian was also embarrassed at the moment, and after retracting his gaze, he only looked underground.
Just when the atmosphere on the field was solemn, another sound came from outside the hall.
"Father, it's not good for the third son, and he didn't look at the little sister. The third son's voice came from a distance.
After a while, the brocade boy came to the center of the main hall.
"Xi'er, follow your third brother down first, and after my father finishes talking to this kid, I'll take you to see the orchids, okay?" said the middle-aged monk with a very kind expression.
"Well, then I'll wait for my father in the back garden. Xi'er was in a good mood when she heard the words of the city lord.
"Father, let's go down first. The brocade boy hurriedly pulled Xi'er and walked towards the outside of the hall.
The main hall was quiet again, and Zhao Tian looked at the middle-aged monk in front of him at the moment, not knowing what he was thinking.
"City Lord, I don't know what else to tell me. Zhao Tian broke the silence and asked.
"Zhao boy, what do you think of Xi'er?"
"Miss Xi'er's appearance is captivating, and her cultivation is also above me, at a young age, her future is limitless. Zhao Tian replied naturally.
When the middle-aged monk heard this, he almost died of anger, and then said: I want to marry Xi'er to you.
When Zhao Tian heard this, he felt a "bang", like a bomb attacking, and his whole mind was buzzing.
"Why, you don't want to, isn't Xi'er worthy of you. Seeing that Zhao Tian had not spoken, the middle-aged monk was furious.
"The city lord has misunderstood, Miss Xi'er is as beautiful as a fairy, but she is just a mediocre person in the younger generation, and I am afraid she is not worthy of Miss Xi'er. Zhao Tian looked at the angry city lord and said uneasily.
"Whether you want it or not, this matter is settled. ”
Zhao Tian knew that the city lord was already in a state of madness at this moment, and his scalp suddenly went numb and froze on the spot.
"Looking at this situation, if I don't give the city lord a step, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of the city lord's mansion today, what should I do. Zhao Tian was very conflicted in his heart.
"Lord of the city, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that marriage is a big deal, and my parents should be in charge. Zhao Tian's parents died when he was a child, and the master brought me up single-handedly, just like my biological father. Zhao Tian suddenly changed his very sad expression and said.
When the middle-aged monk heard this, his expression slowly softened.
"Okay, you go back to the sect to discuss this matter with your master first, and as soon as there is a result, you will come to inform me, the old man believes that your master will not be so ignorant. ”
Zhao Tian listened to this slightly threatening word, and could only nod helplessly.
"Okay, this matter is decided, you go down first, rest in the house today, and then set off for Izumo Mountain tomorrow. The middle-aged monk said slowly.
When Zhao Tian heard this, he nodded, got up and walked towards the outside of the hall.
At this moment, the middle-aged monk was standing in the main hall, looking at the cyan figure in the distance, his expression was very complicated.
"Friend and foe are inseparable, and the will of heaven is unpredictable!" A sigh echoed in the Hongmeng Palace.
