Forced Marriage [Cultivation]

Antarctic Changle is one of the origins of ancient desolation and immortality.After the new heaven was opened, Changle was in a peaceful corner, and rarely set foot in the world of comprehension.Changle is a prosperous world, prosperous and prosperous for nearly ten thousand years.Arriving at Changle Palace at noon that day, the Xicheng group met the King of Changle according to the ritual, and went to the palace to rest in the afternoon.Take a bath and change clothes, and there will be a feast to cleanse the dust in the evening.

The banquet in Changle Palace is extremely luxurious, with white jade as tiles and gold as pillars. Attendants with delicacies and delicacies enter in a file, all dressed in splendid attire; the jewels on the heads of the palace maids are in the form of Jiang Suxing. The stunning makeup, all of them are delicate and beautiful; the entire hall is shining with golden light, and everyone in the west city is dazzled and amazed.

"I've heard about Changle's prosperity and prosperity for a long time, but I saw it today, and it's really magnificent." Another disciple of Fumotang named Lu Jiuyou sat in the front row with Qin Zun.Glancing at Xiaoya who was leaning on Chu Wan's feet not far behind, Lu Jiuyou whispered: "Senior Brother Qin, you said that Princess Huang Xi was born in such a rich country, why would she still want to follow Zhou Hui all the way?" Ran to Tianzhu Peak to suffer? In the end, he was suppressed for 300 years, from a princess of a big country to what he is now. Look at the white-haired king of Changle, tears are about to fall out, father and daughter meet but can’t recognize each other , poor thing."

As if feeling something, Xiao Ya was pestering Chu Wan for a drink, when she suddenly turned her head and looked at Lu Jiuyou with a pair of gray eyes.Chu Wan also looked over, and as soon as he saw Lu Jiuyou and Qin Zun, he immediately turned his head with his eyes downcast.

Lu Jiuyou smiled, spread the fan in his hand to cover his lips, and said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Qin, I think this Third Young Master Chu really hates you."

Since the death of Chu Shuo, the eldest brother of the Chu family, Qin Zun has suddenly become a low-key, calm and introverted student from the former big disciple of the Fu Mo Hall who ruled the west city.

"Junior Brother Lu, talk less and watch more." Qin Zun said in a deep voice with a sick look on his face.The disaster at Jiaolong Harbor last year not only took Chu Shuo's life, but also almost destroyed Qin Zun's Golden Core cultivation base.He is cautious everywhere now, and there is also a reason why his cultivation base is not as good as before.

Not to mention the flashes of swords and swords in front, Jiang Suxing and Gu Baitang sat in the back drinking and watching the dance in the Changle Palace, quite at ease.

On the stage, gongs and drums were beating, and actors dressed as martial arts students jumped onto the stage and were fighting each other.From time to time, a person in Tsing Yi comes up, with red lips and white teeth, black silk like ink, and winking eyes like silk.After a song was sung, the whole house applauded.

Gu Baitang was not interested in the previous singing and dancing, but at this moment he seemed to be interested, and his expression changed.

Jiang Suxing on the side saw it, handed him a glass of wine, and said with a smile, "Brother Baitang, do you like to listen to opera?"

In fact, Jiang Suxing just wanted to talk to Gu Baitang more. He had been with Gu Baitang for more than ten years in his previous life, how could he not know that Gu Baitang's only leisure hobby is listening to operas.

Gu Baitang smiled, took the wine from Jiang Suxing's hand and drank it, his body straight.

"When I was a child, I went to Yunzhou with my father to sell goods. Every time I went to the theater. Often the goods were sold out, and we didn't leave. We stayed in other people's theaters until the troupe came out and invited us to go. After I was seven years old, I joined the theater. When I first came to Xicheng, I didn’t understand the rules, and my uncle often sent me to the confinement room for ten days and half a month. At that time, I could only close my eyes and rely on the few vague operas in my memory to accompany me Live those dark days."

Gu Baitang narrated the past in a flat tone, with a look of reminiscing about the past, his eyes fell on the stage, and he murmured in a voice that only Jiang Suxing could hear: "These things are strictly prohibited in the West City, and they can only be carried out down the mountain." Mission, I happened to pass by the theater, listened to a few words, and recalled many scenes when I was a child, carrying goods with my father, and walking all over the streets and alleys..."

Jiang Suxing has always known that Gu Baitang loves to listen to operas, but he doesn't know why he loves to listen to them.In his previous life, he only knew that whenever he went down the mountain to go on a mission, no matter which time, as long as there was a chance, Gu Baitang would always drag him to find a theater to listen to the music for a while.But I don't want to, it's for this reason.

Looking at the Tsing Yi opera singer on the stage moving lightly with lotus steps, Jiang Suxing suddenly remembered that the legendary Taoist couple in Gu Baitang's previous life seemed to be an opera singer, so his name was Li Qingyi.

Jiang Suxing's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Gu Baitang beside him, and said, "Since you love to listen, I'll learn it later, and I'll sing it for you."

Gu Baitang was fascinated by watching the play, but after hearing what he said, he managed to shift his eyes from the actor to Jiang Suxing's face.

He smiled and said, "You? No need."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the Tsing Yi actor on the stage again.

"Why? You like listening to operas, but you don't like me singing to you?" Or because of that past life, seeing Gu Baitang so obsessed with listening to operas, Jiang Suxing was very unhappy.

Gu Baitang said: "Do you think opera is so easy to learn? These people have been taken into opera troupes since they were young, and they have practiced for at least ten years. If you have that skill, why don't you improve your cultivation."

After finishing speaking, seeing Jiang Suxing's unkind expression, he turned his head and said in a low voice: "I know what you want. If you really have the heart, after you cultivate the golden core, wouldn't it be interesting for the two of you to study the way? "

It was rare for him to speak so softly. When Jiang Suxing heard it, the joy in his heart overflowed his face, and he glared at him with a smile.

The two mandarin ducks are flirting and cursing, and the stands have already finished singing.The actor in Tsing Yi saluted slowly, and after winning applause from all the halls, he stepped back to accept the reward.

After the dinner, the other disciples in Xicheng returned to their residences, and Elder Yan went to have an audience with King Changle alone.Come back half an hour later and call everyone into the room to discuss things.

"I just went to meet the King of Changle, and together with the Patriarch of Seven Mountains and Princess Changle, I explained in detail what happened before. Now, the King of Changle agrees with us. Since Princess Huangxi's spiritual cultivation, Xiaoya, is safe and sound. , we can let it return to Changle in no hurry, let it stay with us, if it likes Chu Wan and wants to follow him, it doesn't matter."

Elder Yan sat on his seat with a serious expression, and said: "There is only one thing, the whereabouts of Zhou Hui's reincarnation must be found out. But this matter should not be publicized. The King of Changle has already agreed to let me wait here as the "Xicheng Mission" at will. Visiting and watching in Changle, secretly investigating Zhou Hui's whereabouts.There is only one point, it will cause unnecessary trouble, this matter cannot be known to the other Changle Seven Kings.So he only gave us three months, once the three months are up, no matter whether we have found Zhou Hui's whereabouts or not, we have to leave Changle. "

After Elder Yan finished speaking, the room was silent for a while, and everyone was silent, with different thoughts.Gu Baitang and Jiang Suxing lowered their eyebrows, their hearts were in a mess.Chu Wan leaned against the door, very leisurely, as if he had nothing to do with him.It's no wonder that he was leisurely, the people in the Xicheng mission, he just brought Xiaoya to the scene.

Qin Zun asked aloud: "Although this is the case, Zhou Hui's reincarnation is still unclear. Where should we start?"

Elder Yan said: "If Wu Conglian is not lying, if the soul I sent back to Changle back then is really not Huang Xi but Zhou Hui, then tomorrow, we can find this person and find out the truth."

When saying this, Elder Yan's eyes seemed to pass Zhu Bishi inadvertently.But Zhu Bishi was expressionless, very upright and respectful.

I heard that everyone was not very excited.Thinking about Zhou Hui's disappearance for 300 years, it is impossible for them to find him as soon as they arrived in Changle. This matter must have twists and turns.

Everyone was waiting to invite An to leave, but Elder Yan suddenly stopped everyone and said, "I just remembered, there is another very important thing."

Lu Jiuyou asked, "What's the matter?"

Elder Yan looked at Gu Baitang and Jiang Suxing who were standing at the back, and said, "Changle is far away from the cultivation world, and the rules are different from ours. The people here are simple and simple, and the common people have never seen a man marrying a man, nor have they heard of it. Afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, when the two of you are walking outside, don't be too ostentatious."

He said that, but the whole room laughed.

Lu Jiuyou said: "Master's words are interesting. Is it possible that Senior Brother Gu and Junior Brother Jiang can still walk hand in hand on the street? I'm afraid they will be chased and beaten by the people of Changle as monsters all over the street?"

The two people who were teased blushed, Jiang Suxing said: "Master Yan, don't worry, we will pay attention to these."

The night was dark, everyone came out of Elder Yan's room and went back to their rooms.Although all the people in the West City were arranged to live in the same courtyard, the disciples still had to go through a corridor that was neither too long nor too short to return to their rooms.

At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the yard next door, piercing the night sky.First one person yelled, followed by another series of screams.

All the disciples in Xicheng looked at each other, hesitated a little, not knowing whether to make a move, they all looked at Gu Baitang and Qin Zun.

Qin Zun showed hesitation, Gu Baitang had already rushed out first, and he jumped over the wall all by himself.

Zhu Bishi also drew his sword and flew over.

"Senior Brother Qin, let's go and have a look too!" Lu Jiuyou said this, and he had already stepped on the bricks and tiles of the other courtyard of Changle Palace.

The people around followed, Qin Zun frowned, and had no choice but to follow.

Leaving Jiang Suxing and Chu Wan Xiaoya looking at each other, Chu Wan said: "Aren't you going?"

Jiang Suxing: "I can't fly over that wall."

Chu Wan sneered, turned and walked towards the arched door.Xiaoya took a look at Jiang Suxing and followed Chu Wan.

"Where are you going?" Jiang Suxing asked.

"If you can't fly, just walk."

Seeing that Chu Wan's figure was about to disappear under the arch, Jiang Suxing also ran over.

"I'm low in cultivation, so I can't climb that wall. After all, you have been practicing on Tianzhu Peak for three or four years, why can't you pass it?"

Chu Wan glanced at him, then asked leisurely, "I can't fly, what's wrong?"

Xiao Yaxing hurriedly said: "Brother Wan, I can fly! I'll carry you there!"

Jiang Suxing said: "You carry him, what about me?"

Xiaoya glared at him, "You have no feet? Don't you know how to walk?"

At this moment, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the surroundings are quiet and quiet. The three of them walked side by side, as if they had returned to the moment when they talked and laughed happily in the previous life.

Seeing Xiaoya's unfriendly attitude towards him, Jiang Suxing was very puzzled, and asked: "You little thing, if it wasn't for me, you might have been pushed to the Jiuqu Waterfall to "burn the corpse and wipe out the traces".All in all, I saved your life.Why don't you know how to be grateful? "

Unexpectedly, Xiaoya said: "Who wants to save you!"

"Hey, you!...That's all, the two of you are indeed the same breed, and you both don't know what's good or what's wrong."

After Jiang Suxing finished speaking, he walked forward by himself.Unexpectedly, the people from the other courtyard had already reached the door, and a black shadow flashed in front of him, Jiang Suxing was terrified before it was too late.At this moment, his body lightened, and he was thrown onto the grass beside him.

He lay on the ground and turned his head, seeing Chu Wan stabbing a man in black with a sword.Strangely, the man in black turned into a cloud of black mist and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Demon Cultivator?!" Jiang Suxing exclaimed in surprise, the sword in Chu Wan's hand is the divine weapon "Mo Yan", which can injure gods and demons, and those with weak soul power are often wiped out in ashes.It's just that in this world, the demon cultivator has long since disappeared, hiding for nearly a thousand years, and somehow appeared here at this very moment.

"Xiaoya, come back!" Chu Wan yelled loudly, because in just an instant, Xiaoya had already entered the courtyard, fighting with everyone in the west city and those demon cultivators.

Jiang Suxing got up from the ground, and grabbed Chu Wan who was about to walk in, "Xiaoya's 300 years of cultivation is far above you and me. These few magic cultivators can't hurt it."

Sure enough, I saw several black shadows who were fighting with Gu Baitang and others, but after Xiaoya joined, they all chose to retreat wisely.

Xiaoya wanted to go after her, but Jiang Suxing said, "I can't go after her!" He is not familiar with the place, and he doesn't know the situation, so he chases after her hastily, I'm afraid it won't be good.

Chu Wan also shouted: "Xiaoya, come back!"

This fierce beating also alarmed Changle's guards.Xiaoya seemed a little afraid of those soldiers wearing Changle military uniforms, it fell from mid-air, turned around and ran back to hide behind Chu Wan and Jiang Suxing.

"What's going on?" Changle's chief guard came in and ordered soldiers to surround the other courtyard and check everywhere.

"Mr. Jun, those individuals suddenly appeared and killed people everywhere. Our little theater troupe are all homeless poor people. What's going on! God doesn't want people to live!" An old man sat paralyzed Crying on the ground, beside him lay two martial arts students, their costumes had not yet been taken off, there was a big black hole in their chest, their hearts had been dug out, they had been dead for a long time.

Those opera singers, Hua Dan, were all kneeling around, all panicked and weeping, and the courtyard was full of wailing.

The head of the guard also showed sadness, first ordered the soldiers to go back and report to King Changle quickly, and then comforted: "We will definitely investigate this matter, if you have such a thing in Changle territory, the king will definitely compensate you. "

After finishing speaking, he stepped forward to greet Qin Zun.

"Masters, thank you very much. If it weren't for you, these poor people might have been killed."

Qin Zun said: "You're welcome. It's just that those are demon cultivators just now, can the chief guard think about it?"

The chief guard frowned, "We don't understand this. But since you are a monk, could it be aimed at you?"

Qin Zun was taken aback for a moment, and the rest of the people in Xicheng also looked at each other in blank dismay, unable to answer.It is also said that Changle is a peaceful corner, far away from the world of cultivation, and has always been peaceful.Now that everyone in West City has just arrived, Moxiu appeared immediately, no wonder others doubted them.

Gu Baitang said: "Let's not talk about this, you should settle these people first, and many of them were also injured. Demon cultivators are often addicted to drugs, and ordinary monks will die if they don't get rid of the demon poison within half an hour. .If it’s just an ordinary person, they will die within a stick of incense.”

As soon as these words came out, the other courtyard that was originally crying immediately burst into screams.Those opera singers, Hua Dan, looked like they were going crazy. Everyone in the West City crawled over, shouting repeatedly: "Help, Taoist priest! Help, Taoist priest!"

Lu Jiuyou said loudly: "Hey! Be careful, the more excited you are and the louder you scream, the faster the poison will take hold!"

Hearing this, only for a moment, the courtyard returned to silence.Those opera singers lay on the ground not daring to move, they just wept silently, like deer in a cage, so pitiful.

The head of the guard also showed horror, and said: "In this case, I ask the head of Taoism to cast a spell quickly."

Gu Baitang asked Zhu Bishi to take a few pills, and ordered someone to fetch hot water, mix it in, and drink it with the actors.

Gu Baitang said: "Drink once at this moment, and drink again at noon tomorrow. If there is no problem within seven days, you can practice your skills and walk. During this period, you need to sit quietly, keep your mood calm, and get enough sleep."

All the actors thanked them again and again, they wanted to kowtow but they didn't dare to use force, they just lay down slowly on the ground.

One of them was not afraid of this, sat up from the ground, walked slowly to Gu Baitang and knelt down to salute, "The Taoist priest dare not look at each other for saving his life, and my slave Li Qingyi dares to ask the elder's Dharma name, so that the slave can repay the favor."

There was still heavy drama makeup on this man's face, so he couldn't tell his face, but from his voice, he should be a handsome man.Between gestures, a quiet fragrance faintly scattered in the air.

Gu Baitang didn't look at him either, he just took half a step back to distance himself from the actor, lowered his eyes and said, "You don't need to say thank you for your hard work, you can go back and rest."

At this time, the chief guard ordered the soldiers to send these actors back to their rooms to rest, and Li Qingyi was also taken away.

Qin Zun negotiated with the head of the guard for a while, and finally everyone in Xicheng went back to their rooms to rest, and asked Chang Le to check the traces of those demon cultivators first.

Everyone turned around and walked back, only to see Jiang Suxing standing there, his face ashen, his eyes fixed on the direction in which the actors left.
