Jiuxiao

Among the ancient gods, only Nuwa and Fuxi are twin brothers and sisters, so the day when Beihai Ruins commemorates the birth of Nuwa is actually the day when Fuxi was born.

On this day, many monster races will gather in Nuwa City to participate in the sacrificial ceremony and the subsequent carnival.

To the north of Beihai Ruins is the altar.

Behind the altar, there are two god statues about ten storeys high, with human bodies and snake tails. They are the ancestors of the demon clan, Nuwa and her elder brother Fuxi.

Even the monster clan who thinks they are blessed by nature, standing under the statue, can't help but feel small, so they worship and feel awe.

The statue is pure white and flawless, but it is not stone or jade, but only on this day, it will emit a faint glow. The monsters think that this is the soul of Nuwa who is still attached to the statue, and the heart feels it and manifests.

Zhou Yin didn't feel much about this very important festival of Yaozu, but since he came to Beihai Ruins, he also went to do as the Romans did, put on the formal and grand dress that the maid said, and prepared to participate in the celebration.

"My lord looks so good in this outfit!" the maid exclaimed, while tying a jade pendant around his waist.

The long hair is combed into a bun on the top of the head, and a red gold jade crown inlaid with beads is worn. On each side of the jade crown is a black wreath with gold border, half of which is pinned behind the ear, and the other half hangs down behind the ear, matching the color of the skin. It makes the cheeks and ears more radiant and radiant.

He still wore several layers on his body, except for the innermost white inner garment, outside was a snow-colored robe with wide sleeves, the top was plain white with no pattern, only auspicious clouds in silver thread were embroidered on the cuffs and hem, and the waist was tied with a jade belt .Outside the robe, there is also a dark red cloud gauze jacket.

The person in the mirror is tall and tall, with stern and cold eyes, even a maid who is used to seeing the beauty of the Yaozu people will have flushed cheeks, and secretly praise the handsome man!

As soon as he finished dressing up, Zhou Chen lifted the curtain and entered.

The maid hurriedly bowed and retreated.

When Zhou Chen saw this outfit for the first time, his eyes lit up, and he stepped forward and hugged him, biting the white earlobe of the man in his arms. "...I'm not willing to let you go out."

Zhou Yin frowned slightly: "How do I feel..."

"What?" Zhou Chen focused on eating tofu.

"This body looks like going to get married, not to sacrifice?"

Zhou Chen almost choked on his saliva, and hurriedly said, "No way, look at me, I'm not the same as you!"

He was indeed wearing a dark red robe, which was slightly different from Zhou Yin's attire, except that the top of his head was replaced by a golden jade crown with a coiled dragon, and the belt was towering and majestic.

"It's about time, let's go out, there will be a lighting ceremony in a while, I will order Nuwa's, you will order Fuxi's, you can watch what I do first, just follow the same way, don't be too nervous..." Zhou Chen He took his hand and walked out, chattering.

"Welcome to the Lord, welcome to Mr. Zhou!"

Outside Wa Palace, there was a large group of people standing there, and they were just the high-status monster races in Beihai Ruins.

Back then, Li Ying and the others encountered a big problem in how to address Zhou Yin.

Call it the Demon Queen, Zhou Yin doesn’t like it, call him an adult, this title is too common, and it can’t highlight Zhou Yin’s special status. In the end, he made a compromise and used the title “Mr.” Chen was still not satisfied, but he couldn't think of anything better.

However, Zhou Yin soon found out that he had been cheated.

Among these people, no matter Li Ying, Chi Hong and others, or the only female elder, Die Bing, all of them are wearing black dresses.

The red dresses of him and Zhou Chen suddenly became extremely conspicuous.

Since the two are in the center and surrounded by the crowd, they stand out even more.

Zhou Yin glanced at Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen looked up at the sky.

"The time has come." Li Ying said.

As his words fell, in an instant, the world turned into a sea of ​​glazed glass.

It was indescribably bright and brilliant.

Countless rays of light slid down from the sky in arcs like shooting stars, a dazzling array of jewels and flowers blooming in everyone's sight.

From both sides of them, guards in armor held torches in their hands, and the light of the fire snaked all the way to the feet of the statue, like a fire dragon dormant, and might fly into the sky at any time.

Separated by the guards, there are dense crowds of countless people, without exception, all of them are Nuwa's people.Among them, some fled to the Ruins of the North Sea after the Fairy and Demon War, and survived and reproduced from generation to generation. It's just two people, as long as they can pass the permission and test of their own clan, they can be allowed to live in Beihai Ruins for a long time, but because of Zhou Chen's different status, Zhou Yin is particularly eye-catching.

There is no doubt about everyone's loyalty to the Demon Emperor, and even love for Zhou Yin. Even if there were various discussions or doubts in private before, when they saw the real person, they all turned into excitement.

"Hey, I saw the Lord and that one!"

"Where?"

"Look, it's on the right of Mrs. Li Ying, and the Lord is wearing red clothes!"

"It's so beautiful, I can't tell it's a human race unless you tell me!" This is admiration.

"That's not it, if you want me to say it's better-looking than Lord Dibing, and it's very suitable for the Lord!" This was echoed.

"No, I think Master Die Bing looks better. After all, his original form is Qingluan. If Master Die Bing, he will definitely transform into the form with the Lord later, and put the fire on it. It's not to mention how spectacular it is, then This person is a human race, unable to transform into form, and I don’t know how to ignite it later, anyway, I think it’s better for the Lord to be with Lord Dibing!” This is a fanatical and loyal fanatic for Dibing.

"It's up to you to arrange who your lord wants to be with. Didn't you hear that when you came back that day, the lord came down with a disguised form and carried Mr. Zhou. Maybe he will do the same when he ignites the fire... "This is a well-founded guess.

"Master Die Bing presided over this ceremony. I wonder how sad I am. I heard that she has always secretly liked our lord, and her love rivals are extremely jealous when they meet..." This was inquired by the gossip bag.

All kinds of voices came into his ears, Li Ying's mouth twitched, and he looked at the pile of ice standing beside him.

She had high hair on her temples, flowing clouds and wide sleeves, with a slight and decent smile on her face, she looked more noble and beautiful than ever.

Li Ying felt that he was worrying too much, Die Bing is such a smart person, he would not choose to have a situation at this time, he thought to himself, and let go of his heart a little.

Zhou Chen held Zhou Yin's hand, and the two of them walked all the way to the towering statue.

First worship Nuwa, and then offer incense.

Different from the incense in the world, the incense used for sacrifices in Beihai Ruins was carved into the shape of epiphyllum. It is said that this was once the favorite flower of Nuwa. There is really a spirit in the dark.

After the worship, there is a lighting ceremony.

On the chests of the two god statues, there is a suspended stone platform, about three feet square, and the fire is extinguished during the rest of the year except for the day of Nuwa's birthday.

It is also strange to say that every year from the day when the fire is ignited, to the end of the next day when the fire on the stone platform is extinguished, the time is just right, so the Yaozu people have always believed that these two idols have divinity Yes, because of this, the annual ignition ceremony, as the beginning of the festival and carnival, is also the most important and solemn link.

The robes meandered across the floor.

Under the attention of everyone, two dark red figures stepped up the steps side by side and walked towards the highest point.

Zhou Chen clenched the hands of the person beside him, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, obviously in a good mood.

"Ayin..."

Zhou Yin turned his head sideways.

"...Did I tell you that I like you very much?"

In the world, it is said that the world is old and the old age is old. He doesn't know what the concept is, because Suzaku never grows old, and only has eternal death. Now he divides half of his lifespan into this person, which means that even if he sleeps forever, there will still be death. If this person is with you, even if you live forever, you will be with this person.

It feels good.

Anyone, any race, is afraid of being alone, even the gods are no exception, so you see, there is Fuxi next to the statue of Nuwa.

Zhou Yin didn't answer. He was not good at expressing his emotions in front of others, so he just held Zhou Chen's hand and tightened it a little.

This was enough to make Zhou Chen happy.

At this moment, the countless sights and gazes under the high platform are nothing but witnesses of the two of them.

The maiden on the altar had been waiting for a long time, and the two held a jade plate in each hand. On the jade plate was a ball of sparkling fire, swaying, soft and bright.

Zhou Chen said: "I will transform later, you hold one of the fires, and I will carry you up."

Zhou Yin shook his head: "No, you order yours, and I will do it myself."

If Zhou Chen were to be carried up to light the fire, of course there would be no problem, and it would be the most law-abiding method. However, in that way, people would definitely think of him as Zhou Chen's vassal, and would even question whether this human monk was worthy of the Demon Emperor.He is not very interested in showing off, but even if he doesn't understand the connotation of this ceremony as well as the Yaozu people, he still knows the meaning of this ceremony to the Yaozu people.

Everything seems to be peaceful now, including Zhou Chen's subordinates. Everyone doesn't say anything, but Zhou Yin knows that they still have doubts in their hearts. Doubt, Zhou Yin doesn't mind doing this.

Zhou Chen hesitated for a while, then nodded: "Okay then, you summon the Lingyin Sword and fly up, put the kindling into the candlestick, and that's all."

Zhou Yin hummed: "You go."

Zhou Chen smiled at him, jumped up, and his body turned into a golden ball in mid-air. With a long cry, he soared into the sky. His golden wings almost covered the top of the altar, and his long tail feathers accompanied him. Suzaku circled and swayed gently in the air, dragging out a golden light in the eyes of people in the night.

Even though they could see it once a year, the people below still held their breath and stared at the extremely beautiful scene in front of them in awe.

The lifespan of many monster races is limited, at best, it is slightly higher than that of ordinary humans. Because of their cultivation, many of them can be extended, which is similar to that of human monks.As the same family as Nuwa, Yaoxiu is closer to all things in the world because of his racial characteristics, so he can get twice the result with half the effort.

However, no matter how powerful it is, it is impossible to compare with Suzaku. Even Li Ying and Die Bing are only a few thousand years old at most. Although Die Bing and others have reached the stage of transformation, but that is Because they practiced earlier than Zhou Chen, not because they had higher aptitude than Zhou Chen, in time, Suzaku's potential could be fully unleashed, and Zhou Chen's cultivation was far more than that.

Therefore, the ancient Suzaku is a symbol of supreme power to the Yaozu people. In front of this absolute power, you have no other ideas, only awe.

At this moment, everyone knelt down and looked into the distance from the bottom of their hearts in awe.

Suzaku circled around a few times with a low cry, picked up the kindling from the witch's jade plate, then raised its head, and flew towards the candlestick on the chest of the god statue. There was a bright light, and the flames blazed.

"Long live the Lord!"

"Long live the Lord!"

"Long live the Lord!"

Everyone couldn't help shouting, and the sound spread out wave after wave, shaking the sky and the earth.

Suzaku was still lingering in the sky, looking down from time to time, her narrow golden eyes showing a little care and worry.

However, Zhou Yin found that even if he summoned the Lingyin Sword, he couldn't fly.

Tried the Canghe Sword and the Seven Killing Sword again, it was the same.

This altar seems to be under some kind of restriction, and the use of flying magic weapons is not allowed.

Everyone was still immersed in excitement, and not many people noticed this detail, but Li Ying felt that Zhou Yin had stood there for a long time, which was not quite right, so he turned around and asked Dibing: "Did you do anything?" ?”

Die Bing lowered his eyes and said lightly: "What can I do?"

He laughed at himself again: "Could it be that you think I have to trip him up? If I trip him, the Lord will like me?"

Li Ying also felt that he was a bit of a villain, and he looked at Chihong, Yongyan and the others next to him. They obviously sensed that something was wrong, and they couldn't run up to the altar at this time. Unavoidably a little anxiety surfaced.

If the festival is affected, not only Zhou Yin will be ashamed, and they naturally don't want anything to happen.

Zhou Yin glanced at the Lingyin Sword in his hand, and then looked up at the two pale witches.

After a pause, he took the sword back to Xumijie and took out the pen to wash the sky.

He bit his finger and wrote a few runes on the body of the pen, then held the pen, pointed the tip of the pen at the torch under the altar, counted quickly, and pulled his sleeve up suddenly!

With a bang, the flames on those torches seemed to be grabbed by an invisible force out of thin air, and they separated from the torches suddenly, floating into the air in groups, and gradually gathered together, but in a short while, they formed a huge, thick and long The giant fire dragon!

It has two horns on its head, its eyes are like copper bells, it has a beard under its jaw, and its claws have five fingers.

The giant dragon roared silently, soared into the air, and flew towards the altar.

Taking a closer look, it was actually the person on the altar who was manipulating this "dragon"!

Everyone stared blankly at the spectacle in front of them, and suddenly, the extremely noisy scene became quiet.

The author has something to say: 1. The titles of the Lord and His Majesty were mixed up in the previous text and have been corrected. The dementia writers who write empty texts can’t afford to hurt them. They often make such forgetful mistakes. Thank you for pointing out.

2. Tu Qing, the Shangxuanzong monk who was captured by Yun Zong and the others, is not forgotten, it will be written later.

3. Children’s shoes who say that eating 2 taels of hair balls in two days is inflation. Haven’t you found the metaphor in this?

4. I saw a lot of friends say that they don’t like to read about the situation in mainland China, but prefer to watch JQ. I also try to write as much as possible, but it is obviously impossible for such an article to be all about love.
