Chapter 315
As soon as Yin Xiu said these words, the originally warm atmosphere on the table suddenly froze.
Even the fat black man opposite him, who had been crunching peanuts, stopped and looked at him blankly.
Liu Qing coughed twice.
"Tao, Taoist priests... In the north, those from the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain also have some contacts with the Qinling Divine Monarch. During the holidays, they send envoys to each other to send gifts as congratulations."
"Yes, yes, those Taoist priests by the river used to write a greeting note in advance when they asked our Dragon King to send rain, and asked the carp to bring it over. We all know each other very well."
After suddenly realizing that Yin Xiu's identity was nothing to be afraid of, the atmosphere at the table became warm again.
Everyone drank tea and chatted, completely losing their previous restraint.
After a while, the originally dim lights suddenly became brighter from a distance, one after another, as if someone had lit a fuse to start the fire.
Immediately afterwards, the harsh, festive sound of gongs, drums and suonas rang, shaking everyone's eardrums.
Surrounded by a group of people, the newcomer appeared.
They were dressed in traditional styles that Yin Xiu had never seen before, and they walked slowly with red flowers on their arms.
The groom should be Mr. Huang as everyone calls him.
In terms of appearance, he is quite similar to Huang Feng and the housekeeper. Their faces are a bit sharp, but his face is like a crown jewel, and his complexion and overall temperament are much better.
The bride's face is covered by a red hijab, but her waist is graceful. From her appearance and figure, she can be seen to be a beauty.
Yin Xiu turned her head to Liu Qing, "What is the background of the woman?"
"The woman? Their ancestral home is Qingqiu. I didn't ask for their name. I just know that they belong to the [Su] family. They used to be considered a big family in the north."
Yin Xiu originally wanted to ask something else, but the harsh sound of suona and laughter quickly blocked his voice.
Even if Liu Qing could hear him speaking, he probably couldn't hear the other party's reply clearly.
So Yin Xiu simply closed her mouth and just watched the ceremony while sipping the rock tea in the cup.
The lively ceremony went on for a long time, and it was nothing more than worshiping ancestors, worshiping heaven and earth.
After sending the bride into the wedding room, the groom walked out and the banquet began.
The maids who were dressed the same, had roughly the same body shape, and even had almost similar faces filed out. There were almost twice the number of tables, a total of two to three hundred people.
They came up, skillfully removed the tea sets and fruit plates, and replaced them with wine cups, bowls and chopsticks.
After the butler shouted to open the table.
Cold dishes and hot dishes, served immediately.
Roast chicken, steamed fish, pork knuckle, dishes of various colors and tastes were all served, filling the table in no time.
At this time, Mr. Huang also changed into casual clothes, still red, but the sleeves were not so wide, and the red flower on the chest was also removed.
He walked over in a few steps and sat down next to Yin Xiu.
Mr. Huang San didn't seem strange or surprised by the appearance of Yin Xiu, a stranger. He just raised a glass to him and said, "Please!"
Yin Xiu was not polite, picked up the wine glass and clinked a glass with him, drank it in one sip, and his mouth was suddenly filled with the aroma of flowers and trees, with a sweet aftertaste.
This is obviously rice wine produced in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, and it has been buried in the ground for many years.
After having another drink with Yin Xiu, Mr. Huang San said cheerfully: "I am getting married today, and I never expected that someone would come to my family.
Our Mr. Huang is living in seclusion, and the Fourth Mr. Huang is reclusive and rarely interacts with us. I didn’t expect to have you as a distinguished guest on our big day. This also brings a lot of glory to my face, doesn’t it?
I smell your scent. Brother, you have lived on the ground for a long time, right?How are you two doing?"
Yin Xiu glanced at him and added another glass of wine for herself.
"Mr. Huang passed away, and Fourth Master Huang... also died."
After hearing this, Mr. Huang San sighed, "Hey, our brothers don't know each other that much anymore.
As for the second child, the fifth child, they didn't follow them to the south, and now they don't know what's going on in the mountains to the north.
Should he continue to be his own great immortal?We are still like the rest of us, staying in this dark underground, living an ignoble existence, living happily day by day. "
As he spoke, Mr. Huang picked up a chicken butt with chopsticks, regardless of the grease staining his sleeves, and brought it to Yin Xiu's bowl.
"Life and death have a destiny. We are not like human beings. When we die, we die. If there is a pit, we set up a monument.
There is no place to bury it, so there is nothing inappropriate about being buried on the roadside. If you feed wild dogs, birds, etc., they are considered the same kind of people as us, so it doesn’t mean anything. "
Yin Xiu looked embarrassed. After looking around, she put the chicken butt into Mr. Huang San's bowl.
"I can't get used to this good food, so you might as well enjoy it alone."
Mr. Huang San nodded, "I know, I thought everyone loved this thing the most, and they grew this chicken just for this butt."
He was not polite as he said that. After putting a chopstick into his mouth, he started sucking it with relish. It looked like he was sucking an oyster or tasting some fine wine.
It wasn't until after a while that there was no more meat on the chicken's butt and only the triangular bones were left, that Mr. Huang finally stopped and reluctantly threw the bones on the table.
He whispered: "Brother, I know your origins. From the moment you came in, I could smell your popularity.
Everyone here is a monster, your aura is too conspicuous, not just me, I'm afraid other monsters also know it. "As he said this, an unpredictable smile appeared on the faces of Liu Qing and Bai Ying. Yin Xiu also had an unpredictable smile.
"But it doesn't matter. The monsters in Kyushu have been coexisting with humans for thousands of years. We are not those monsters with bad rules and do not harm people. Hundreds of years ago, we helped the monks in the mountains.
Mr. Huang recognizes you as a brother, so of course we do too.
In my place, when others call me Third Grandpa, they will naturally call you Sixth Grandpa. This is the rule.
There is no greater rule than this under the earth. "
Sure enough, just as Yin Xiu thought, the reason why she was welcomed from the beginning was.
From the door to the courtyard, these people all treated him politely, obviously because Mr. Huang recognized him as his brother before.
Although it is a bit outrageous, Yin Xiu is indeed the highest level in the weasel family tree.
I'm afraid that in the north, those Baojiaxian and the disciples under Baojiaxian would have to respectfully call him "Master" when they see him.
Seeing what he said so clearly, Yin Xiu no longer concealed anything. They were all "brothers" and there was no need to hide anything.
So he got straight to the point: "Actually, the reason why I came here under the ground is not to congratulate you, but to do this, this, and this..."
As soon as Yin Xiu finished telling the whole story, Master Huang San slammed the table so hard that the bowls, chopsticks, and cups shook.
"Hey! The local bald donkeys are so rude. They dare to attack members of my Huang family. Do they not want to hang out anymore!?"
Yin Xiu smiled and said: "They don't know my identity. Sometimes I forget it myself."
"That's not OK."
The person who said this was Liu Qing, and his face was full of a cold smile at this time.
"I have long disliked those monks. Do you really think that Mount Amitabha is their back garden? Before we could say anything, we surrounded a piece of land by ourselves, built a pagoda and buried the relics. It was clear that we were going to suppress us. We can no longer live on the ground. If they do this, we will soon be underground. I can't find a safe place either. "
"Not soon, but right away."
Bai Ying picked up a plum from the plate, stuffed it into his mouth, turned it around and spit out a core without skin and flesh.
"Last month, I saw a golden monk running around under the ground. The light on his body from far away was so piercing that I couldn't open my eyes."
"Is he a living Buddha?" Mr. Huang San asked.
"No."
Bai Ying shook his head, "With such a powerful monk, we would have run away long ago."
"When did you see him?"
It was Yin Xiu who asked this question. At this time, he was staring at Bai Ying seriously. It was obvious that he was not asking casually.
Bai Ying was stunned for a moment, then pursed his lips and started thinking. After a while, he said: "It was the fifteenth day of last month. I remember it very clearly, because in my cave, only when the moon is full, the moonlight will shine through the gap. The light came in and kept me awake."
When Yin Xiu heard this, he immediately thought of the secrets under the well of Hongde Temple.
If his guess is correct, the cave he is currently in should be part of the Hongde Temple cave, or it may be under Hongde Temple.
"What, brother, are you looking for that monk?"
Mr. Huang Santai looked at him, his narrowed eyes full of curiosity.
"That's right, there are some things I need to figure out, and when I go underground, I also want to find one person, or two people."
"Find someone?"
Mr. Huang San laughed and said, "Maybe we need to consider other things. Looking for someone? It's not difficult for us. We are very familiar with this place."
As for us kids, it's not easy to find someone when we're not running around here. "
Yin Xiu nodded, "One of them should be a vampire."
Hearing this, the atmosphere on the table froze again.
Mr. Huang San frowned, "Brother, you seem to have reached a very international level?"
Yin Xiu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's not that I want internationalization, it's internationalization that found me."
"No matter what, we Huang Xians have never had the custom of rejecting others at weddings.
Moreover, you are still our own brother, and your affairs are my affairs. Whether you are looking for that monk or some ghost, I have to help you. "
"Master Huang San said so, we must also help, we are all our own family members." Others echoed.
"In that case, I'd like to thank everyone in advance."
Yin Xiu took out the compass he had borrowed from Liu Banxian from his pocket and placed it on the table.
Mr. Huang San and several people at the table all put their heads over and started sniffing the compass.
At this moment, the lights above them suddenly dimmed.
In the darkness, the table was full of green eyes.
