Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2163 Road Choice Collective Wedding
the next day.

Colorful flags were fluttering on Daxia Lingfa Code Square. Although there were only four couples, Leiden did not lower the wedding standard at all.

Not only did he arrange a very grand wedding scene, but he even gave the civil servants and pioneers of the territory a day off. As early as a long time ago, he had already understood the true meaning of Xia Duo's instructions.

Using the collective activities of mass participation to shape the special humanistic order of wealthy Daxia people is different from specific and cold laws, and the unique humanistic order can better define an ethnic group.

Of course, in today's Daxia collar, there is a lot of overlap in both legal codes and humanities. In other words, it is the Daxia codes that shape the embryonic form of Daxia humanities.

So, what exactly is the humanistic order of the Great Xia?
In fact, Layton himself can't explain this clearly. He only knows that under the notice of the lord, everyone in the territory has been well taken care of, and they all support such an order from the bottom of their hearts. This is enough up.

Looking at the busy but smiling citizens in the square, Layton seemed to understand what the "legislative spirit" the lord had mentioned many times before.

There really shouldn't be any immutable laws in this world, but the spirit of legislation can be eternal, this is the true meaning of the law!

So what kind of legislative spirit is worth following?
Leiden subconsciously looked at the Codex sculpture in the center of the Codex Square, which was shrouded in holy light. Unlike the previous obedience to the rigid teachings, this time he not only understood the importance of the law, but also understood the importance of the source of legislation .

With this realization, Leiden thought through a lot of problems at once, and then he knelt down on one knee and prayed silently toward the direction of the eastern sun:
"My lord! The good and evil of the mortal world may not be in your consideration, but as a mortal, how can Leiden completely abandon the difference between good and evil! My lord! Please forgive my choice!"

The next moment, Layton's body trembled violently, but he resisted the pain of the loss of divine grace and did not allow himself to make a sound, but the loss of divine grace was not only the dissipation of the holy power, but also the long-held belief collapse.

That kind of pain is not something ordinary people can bear, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is heartbreaking, but Leiden who can firmly choose his own path is not an ordinary person!
In the end, Layton endured it. He stood upright unsteadily, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and waved to the east, as if saying goodbye to his past self.

Then he turned around and strode towards Jib on the side of the square, shouting as he walked: "Jib, Jib, let your people go to help too, I will receive the news that the lord will come soon, hurry up and arrange the venue good!"

"The lord is coming too? Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Gibb looked annoyed, and looked at Layton with displeasure, "A few old friends asked me a few days ago, asking if the lord will come to this collective wedding, I said no, you Now that you say that again, how can you tell me to explain to those old friends!"

"This is beyond my control. I only got the news yesterday, but there will be no problem with the venue. Ask your friends if they want to come together."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you!"

Gibb was in a hurry to inform his friends, grabbed a subordinate who was nearby, and ordered: "Xiao An, follow the arrangement of the Layton Consul here, and I will come over in a while. If you dare to stab, see if I don't mind Pack you!"

"Boss, how can I! I'm afraid Lord Layton will arrest me for a public trial!"

"Haha! He won't do it. Our police station is the only one who arrests people. But if you don't obey, I'll send you to him for a public trial."

Upon hearing this, the young man named Xiao An immediately put away his hippie smile and became serious, but the muscles accumulated in the corners of his eyes still exposed his true psychology.

Gibb didn't care, because he knew that the security officers under him seemed slippery, but each of them had gone through many tests. with.

He wasn't worried at all that handing over his men to Layton would cause trouble.

……

After Gibb left, Layton immediately took the young man named Xiao An to meet Cade in the territory's logistics department. Although he was responsible for organizing the collective marriage, Cade's logistics department was in charge of the specific affairs.

After seeing Cade, Layton also reminded the lord that he would be there. Cade also had a friend whose child was about to get married, but the lord would not always be there in person.

However, he didn't leave a bunch of his men and run away like Gibb did. He asked his wife Lina to notify him, while he stayed in the square to arrange the scene.

In this way, time soon came to noon.

When Xia Duo brought Niya to Codex Square and heard that there were fourteen new couples, he scolded Leiden on the spot.

Speaking of which, if Layton had arranged the group weddings at a longer interval and had more couples participating at a time, he would not have canceled all the group weddings that followed, after all, this was also a very meaningful thing.

"If there are fourteen more couples, it's fourteen more, right? If there are more people, it will be more lively, but next time we can set a standard. As long as there are more than twenty couples for each newcomer, then I will personally come to bless the couple."

"My lord, with your words, I believe that many people are willing to hold a group wedding with other couples."

"Alright, it's getting late, let's prepare for the ceremony!"

"Yes."

……

In fact, Xia Duo didn't need him to do much when he came over, he just needed to stand at the foot of the Codex sculpture as a mascot, and then send blessings after the newcomer ceremony was over.

As the citizens who came to watch the ceremony entered the arena one after another, members of the cultural and educational department of the territory also began to play a festive movement, until eighteen pairs of men and women in gorgeous (decorative) robes walked to the center of the square.

Layton, who also put on a formal dress, also walked quickly to Xia Duo. He first bowed respectfully to Xia Duo and his wife, then turned to face the citizens in the square and bowed in the same way.

Then, a little bit of holy light swayed from Layton's hands, casting a layer of sacred color on the wedding ceremony, and then he announced loudly:

"December 838, 12 in the Nether calendar, on this day when the old and the new alternate, eighteen couples ushered in the most important moment in their lives.

"Personally speaking, the union of husband and wife not only means that there is an additional close person who can support each other in life, but also a like-minded person who works hard and cooperates in career.

"Compared with territory, marriage is more related to the development and growth of future civilization, each of you shoulders a heavy responsibility.

"Under the witness of the Great Xia Law Code and the lord, I announce the beginning of the wedding!"

Afterwards, the original passionate music became soothing, as if the original fiery love gradually became dull, but this dullness does not mean that the emotion disappears, but instead turns into a profound, meaningful and long-lasting family affection.

And this is also one of the meanings of marriage, which can make two people who are already very close become one.

　Being withdrawn of divine grace does not mean that Layton has completely lost his holy power. It just means that he is no longer firmly practicing the path of the Lord of Radiance. However, the paths of the two sides overlap, and this overlap is enough for him to retain part of his holy power. .
