Chapter 213 Shocked Yinzhou City

As soon as the Si family's nine-story glazed pagoda came out, the crowd exploded in shock, all clapping their hands and screaming.

Si Denghan had both complacency and contempt on his face. He glanced at He Wanming and said in his heart: This is the difference between aristocratic family and outbreak. What is gold? His glazed pagoda is so beautiful that it has richness and connotation .

At this time, the other big households on the viewing platform also began to flatter each other.Those who are acquainted with the Si family will praise the Si family, those who are acquainted with the He family will praise the He family, and those who are neutral will praise both sides, and no one will be offended.

Si Denghan and He Wanming were busy entertaining with the heads of the big households, while the younger generation's female relatives continued to look at the lanterns that appeared later.

After seeing the glazed pagoda, all kinds of dazzling lanterns came out one after another.

There are one hundred and eight fairy parties carved out of jade, in different shapes, which are breathtaking;

The ancient mythical beasts carved out of blood stones are tall and mighty, and they are also applauding;
There is even a tapestry of more than four zhang long dragon and phoenix play beads, so lifelike, it seems that it will fly out of the silk in the next moment.

All kinds of competing for beauty, appearing one after another.And as the appearance goes further, the novelty and magnificence gradually decrease.The common people also went from being amazed at the beginning to slowly calming down.This is the case every year. The first few are worth seeing, while the latter ones are getting less and less interesting.

The enthusiasm of the masses gradually faded.

"It's paper again. It seems to be similar to this one last year, right?"

"Hey, it's boring, it's boring, everything that caught the eye has passed."

"I still want to see the glazed pagoda and the silk tapestry. The dragon and phoenix are so beautifully woven. It won't be a year before I can't come."

"Heh~ There are so many people, you can squeeze through, it's your skill."

The crowd began to feel helpless, looking at the more and more common lanterns, they didn't even applaud.

There is no way, compared to harm, I have seen the most gorgeous ones, if the latter ones cannot be surpassed, then no matter how good they are, they will be boring.Some even yelled "Leave a way" and wanted to leave.

But some people want to stick to the end.

"Shange is the last one. To be honest, I'm really curious to see what they can come up with."

"What can I show? If it's really good, it won't be ranked last. Last year, I feel funny when I think about it now. It's a pure embarrassment."

"Then I'm also curious. After all, they are making an exception to let them participate. Whether it is a donkey or a horse, you have to watch it to know."

Because of these words, some people gave up the idea of ​​leaving again. Of course, some people firmly believed that the more they went to the back, the less interesting they were, so they caught up with the lanterns in front, wanting to see those gorgeous things again.

Upstairs at the city gate, Cao Jian was almost done, stood up and walked to the inner room, ready to take a rest.

It took more than three hours to walk through the streets with lanterns to reach the gate of the outer city. He only needed to take a carriage to pick up Guan Wang when the time was about the same.

This is also a common practice, those lanterns at the back don't matter to the people on the tower, they are used to seeing riches and honors, so naturally they don't have the same curiosity as ordinary people, so they are bored to see anything, at most they are admiring the fancy craftsmanship.

So under the leadership of Cao Shen, other subordinate officials also got up and went into the inner room of the tower to rest.

On the viewing platform, everyone saw Zhou Mu taking the lead to leave. Some people couldn't sit still, but because of Si He's family, they couldn't go straight away, so they could only sit on the stool and doze off.

More people chatted with each other. As for what was going on downstairs, no one looked at it at all.

At the gate of the city, the person in charge of calling out the sequence didn't have much strength, and one by one mechanically, finally shouted: "No. 20, Liu's family."

"It's the second-to-last one. It's almost there, the next one will be." The people who wanted to find out became more enthusiastic.

The servant of the Liu family came out carrying a dragon-shaped paper lantern, and sure enough, he deserved to be the second last.The onlookers were disappointed as expected, and some even booed.It made Liu's family's face flush with embarrassment, but they still had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk on.

After the Liu family walked out, everyone stared at the city gate with the last bit of curiosity.

"Eh? Why didn't I see anyone? Didn't you say there is still a mountain pavilion?"

"Yeah, why don't you see anyone, have you given up?"

"No, if he gives up, he will become the laughing stock of the whole city. Even if he finds an oiran to dance with, it's better than nothing."

The yamen servant who called the order waited for Liu's family to walk a certain distance, and then lazily shouted mechanically: "No. 20, Shange."

His voice was not loud, and the people in the distance did not hear it.But everyone's eyes are on the gate of the city.

Time passed bit by bit, and the Liu family had gone far away, but there was still no movement at the gate of the city.

what happened?

The crowd began to chatter and stir.Some people even couldn't bear their temper and asked, "What's the situation? Can't you come out yet?"

"Yeah, don't come out and leave."

"Is there any more? Don't waste our time."

On the viewing platform, the Si family and the He family, who had been watching the movement, were also puzzled at this moment.Mrs. He even stood up directly, walked to the front, and murmured: "Why isn't this mountain pavilion coming out yet?"

At the gate of the city, the yamen servant calling for the order was about to leave work after the last family left, but after waiting for a while, they only heard the noise of the common people in the distance.Inside the city gate, there was still no movement.

He looked inside, except for two rows of torches, there was no one there.

what's the situation?The yamen servant also looked dumbfounded. For so many years, he has never seen anyone absent. Even if it is the last one, it is a great honor. This mountain pavilion is not so stupid as to be absent, right? !
The dissatisfaction and accusations of the onlookers became louder and louder, and in the end, it was unknown who took the lead, "Let's go, there is no one left, it must be a coward, who was frightened by the front. It's not a mountain pavilion, it's nothing .”

"I heard that the pavilion master of the mountain pavilion is quite powerful, he is a god-like figure, he shouldn't be." There were still people who did not give up, "Did something happen?"

"Why do you care so much, what does it have to do with you? Look inside, there is no one there. Let's go, hurry up, and you can take another look at the glazed pagoda in front of you."

The crowd gradually began to retreat.

On the viewing platform, because of the attention of the Si family and the He family, other big households also stood up, wondering where the mountain pavilion went.

Mrs. He was worried, "Is something wrong? From yesterday to today, Shen'er hasn't come home. Something must have happened."

Si Denghan and Si Chaoren on the other side also felt a thump in his heart. Si Wenzhi hadn't come home for a day from yesterday to now, but he just sent someone to spread the word that they were at the master's house.Did something really happen?

Si Denghan's heart tightened, and he hurriedly ordered his servants: "Go and see what happened."

Mrs. He was also worried, and ordered her servants to investigate quickly.

And when the two families sent people to inquire about the situation, there were bursts of crisp birdsong in the air, the sound was as loud as in the ears.

Upstairs and downstairs, everyone was stopped by the bird song.

This sound is a bird song that they have never heard before, and what makes them even more strange is that this sound seems to be in their ears.

Everyone began to look around, trying to find the source of the sound.Just at this moment, someone shouted, "Look, above."

The crowd who heard the sound raised their heads one after another, and the next moment, these people suddenly screamed.

"Look, look at the sky."

"My God, what is that? Is that a bird? Why is it so big?"

The people downstairs were all frightened, shocked, and unbelievable.

On the viewing platform, Si Denghan, He Wanming and others even jumped up from the stools one after another, ignoring any etiquette, and flew directly to surround the viewing platform's guardrail wall.

Everyone looked at the sky above in shock.On the upper floor of the city gate, Cao Shen and others who were resting were also disturbed by the restless sound.

Cao Shen was resting on the chair, frowning in displeasure: "What happened outside?"

The boy hurriedly ran out to inquire about the situation, and came back after a while, a little timidly, "Returning to my lord, the people downstairs are all staring at the gate tower, as if something serious has happened."

Cao Shen frowned. Every year on this day, stampede accidents are most likely to occur, so he thought about it, sat up, and walked outside.The other officials also got up and followed.

Countless people downstairs stared at the gate tower, or to be precise, the roof of the gate tower, as if they had been frozen.

Cao Shen was full of doubts, and leaned out a little, wanting to see what was in the sky.The other subordinates also looked up, and at this moment, a huge black shadow quickly flew over their heads.

The black shadow was so huge that it almost covered half of the tower.Cao Shen was so shocked that his hair turned cold for a moment. Although he didn't see what was going on, he felt a faint sense of danger, so he quickly called out "Guards".

The city guards who had been on standby held their spears and surrounded the gate and the wall, standing in two rows.Upstairs, everyone watched the black shadow fly by in horror.Then, it was completely revealed in front of their eyes.

A big golden bird with a width of five or six feet and a length of about ten feet is slowly flapping its colorful and beautiful wings, hovering right in front of the city gate tower.

The big bird is golden and red all over, especially the golden tail, which is extremely beautiful.Its body is huge, but it can fly freely like a streamer, turning up and down, left and right, as if it is dancing.

Graceful, beautiful.

Cao Shen stared at it intently, and his whole body shuddered. He had never seen such a huge, beautiful, but sacred bird.

"This is a phoenix, this is a divine bird, a phoenix." On the city tower, a well-informed subordinate fell to the ground in horror, pointing at the big bird and shouting.

And his shout immediately woke up Cao Shen.Yes, this is Phoenix, this is Phoenix.He read it in ancient books.

"The phoenix came to the world, God bless me in Yinzhou, God bless me in Daxia." Someone couldn't help shouting.

Cao Shen was stunned and stunned for a long time before shouting: "Everyone put away their weapons and retreat."

And the common people under the city tower, some people also recognized it.For a moment, the entire city tower seemed to be fried.

"The phoenix came to the world, the fire bird and the phoenix came to the world."

"This is a god, and it is a decree from the gods."

The movement on their side alarmed the people in the distance, so more and more people looked towards this side, and the exclamations were like sea waves, one higher than the other, and the one farther away.

On the viewing platform, everyone held their breath. They were either obsessed, dull, afraid, or in disbelief.

And that huge divine bird phoenix is ​​hovering freely in the air and gradually falling.

The person standing on a high place finally saw clearly at this time.Someone exclaimed: "Look quickly, there is someone on Phoenix's back." So everyone focused on it.

I saw a woman dressed in silver and white sitting cross-legged on top of Phoenix's head, and behind her, on Phoenix's back, there were more than a dozen teenagers standing neatly, all dressed in silver and blue costumes. conspicuous.

Some people recognized that the phoenix had their own child on its back, and they all excitedly showed off to the people around them, "That's our young master."

But at this moment, two silver lights suddenly flashed from the top of the gate tower.Two streaks of silver light flashed across like meteors, and finally landed around Phoenix.

Mrs. He stared, trembling with excitement, "Is that Shen'er? That seems to be Shen'er?"

He Wanming and He Shengtao also fixed their eyes and looked at it, equally terrified.That silver light could not be He Yunshen, he was standing on a sword, floating on the left side of Phoenix.On the right side is Si Wenzhi.

The Si family over there also saw it, and Si Chaoren exclaimed even more excitedly, "It's Zhi'er, and Zhi'er is beside Shenniao."

Whether it was on the viewing platform or downstairs, the pot exploded again.There was a lot of voices, everyone was exclaiming, and some people even cried bitterly because of being too excited.

And with Si Wenzhi and He Yunshen in place, the divine bird Phoenix began to flap its wings and flew low along the red carpet.

The young masters on the back of the phoenix began to dance their swords. Their movements were as neat as those engraved in a painting. There was not a single bit more and no less. The momentum is also not small.

On both sides, Si Wenzhi and He Yunshen, one left and one right like guardians, with their hands behind their backs, followed the speed of the Phoenix, and proudly flew into more and more places amidst the stunned petrified stiff cries of everyone along the way. in the sight of the person.
