The Glass Maiden
Chapter 5: Draw lots
Chapter 5 Lottery ()
The two ran to the front, and said: "It seems that I saw Master Yinghong following the head and his wife into the Hairpin Flower Hall. When did Master let you speak?"
Zhong Minyan said with a strong smile: "It's the morning, just because I have something else with me, so I didn't have time to find the lady in charge."
The two said: "If this is the case, then you don't need to go in. Since the lady in charge and Uncle Shadow Red are in the Zanhua Hall, I must have said anything. You two go back, you will be drawing lots soon, and each big door will send hands. The door and the elders are inside, so you can't disturb them."
Zhong Minyan continued to speak and contemplate a thousand times, but he couldn't think of any excuses, so he turned around and wanted to leave. Who knows Linglong said coldly: "I don't know what is good or bad. If Aunt Hong has anything to say to my mother face to face, do we need to spread the word? I don't understand this. I have to say it!"
Seeing that they were Linglong, they couldn't help being short of breath. After thinking about it, maybe there was something unpleasant between the uncle Yinghong and the wife of the head, and let the daughter of the head Linglong come to pass the message, which is not uncommon. Between women, there are always some troublesome things, and they like to bend around and not make it clear, as powerful as the wife of the head and the uncle of the shadow can not be refined.
Thinking of this, they had to step aside again, hesitating to let them go.
Passing through the Jasper Terrace, bypassing the front entrance hall and walking to the backyard, Zhong Minyan burst into laughter, knocked on her small exquisite head lightly, and said, "You're really crazy! Uncle Yinghong is going to cheer for you for no reason. Suspicious black pot."
Linglong pouted and said in anger: "Who let them hold chicken feathers as an arrow! What if it is a draw? It is not shameful, like a thief. What can we do!"
While talking, the Hairpin Flower Hall was near. Although it is named the hall, it is actually a tall building. There is a bend of clear water and a bamboo forest in front of the building. Slender and elegant white cranes are looking for food and resting in front of the water in twos and threes. It was probably because the Jasper Terrace was guarded very tightly, and there was actually no one in front of the Hairpin Hall.
Zhong Minyan saw that Linglong was about to rush into it, and he hurriedly pulled it back and said, "I can't disturb you all. Let's lie under the window and leave an ear to eavesdrop."
Speaking, the two men walked gently to a window in the West Wing, the window was hidden, and the elegant tea and agarwood fragrance spread from the gap, which smelled very good.
But I heard someone inside, who was the head of Shaoyang Peak, Yu Lei.
"...For the lottery, should you follow the rules of previous years? Please write your names on the bamboo sticks, and then the Uchiko will draw. The first five people are responsible for picking the flower."
defloration? Linglong didn't react for a while. Zhong Minyan said silently with his mouth: the demon. She immediately realized that it turned out that it was the lottery to catch the demon who was the main event.
As soon as Xie Lei's voice fell, he heard a hoarse voice and laughed: "The head of Chu is so stingy. This hairpin conference is dispatched to you in Shaoyang, but the lottery has to be drawn by your lady. It is really good time and place. what."
Xie Lei said a few words coldly by this person, but he didn't say anything. He only smiled: "Song Dao's words are serious, and the lottery is arranged here with integrity. My wife is not among the candidates for the lottery, so let her Let’s draw. If you think it’s inappropriate, you might as well recommend another draw, and there will be no objection."
But the man said: "We are all guests, the guests are as they please, where can there be any objections! Come! Hurry up and draw lots! Finish the hairpin conference sooner and go home to sleep!" After that, he paused. , Then said: "This Shaoyang School is not included. The previous few flower pickers didn't have their share, so let's do it this time!"
Hearing what he meant was to accuse them of cheating for favoritism, Xu Lei couldn't help being furious. But he is very well cultivated, and his face is still not moving. He was about to put it back lightly, but he heard a deep and low voice in the corner saying: "Why do you have to be impatient for Song Daochang? Anyway, you are afraid that they will not have eyes and go by themselves. It won’t happen. You Xuanyuan Sect is veteran and has strong disciples, so you don’t put defloration in your eyes. Why don’t you give us the opportunity to Fuyu Island?"
Song Dao Chang Yinyin smiled, but stopped talking. Xu Lei also smiled and stopped talking. He Danping sent the bamboo strips to each person's case and smiled: "Please write your names on the bamboo strips and put them in this big bamboo basket. The first five people who were selected will have to trouble you to pick the flowers. "She smiled to herself, as if she hadn't heard Song Daochang's previous complaints.
Linglong could not hear clearly, and wanted to raise her head a little bit. Zhong Minyan hurriedly pulled her down gently and said in a low voice: "Don't move, there are all good people inside, be careful to be discovered. Now I and Examine you, what are the so-called five schools in the world?"
It turned out that he was afraid that Linglong would be overly curious, and he was discovered that they were peeking, so he specifically looked for something to distract her. Sure enough, she shook her head and said triumphantly: "You don't even know this? Let me tell you. The five schools are Central Plains Shaoyang Peak, Nanshan Xuanyuan School, Beiyang Fuyu Island, Western Wilderness Dianjing Valley, and East China Sea Lize Palace. Each of the five major factions has a long history, many disciples, and people from all over the world are flocking. It's just that the Xuanyuan faction has been declining recently, and the disciples are not as good as a year. But after all, they are using the saying of the emperor of heaven and their strength, and they still cannot be underestimated. Ze Gong is a new school that has only emerged in the past 50 years. Now it is gaining momentum and it seems to want to catch up with Shaoyang Peak. But I think the people in that palace are weirdly tight, and I don’t know if it’s a male. Female...Fuyu Island and Dianjing Valley are all familiar to us, don't I need to tell you?"
Zhong Minyan opened his eyebrows and smiled, and pretended to nod his head again and again, and then said softly: "Don't say anything else, do you remember that we went to Fuyu Island two years ago? I didn't expect such a beautiful sea of flowers on a small island. But that island. As soon as the lady of the Lord came out, all the flowers disappeared..."
Linglong squinted at him, "Okay, so you brothers, pay attention to this on weekdays! I will tell my father to go and say that you are absent-minded, and the beauties are not doing exercises now!"
Zhong Minyan knew that she was joking, and it would not be easy to play with her, so he could only smile and said: "Also, who was the person who looked at me?"
Linglong sighed: "Really. I've never seen anyone better than her..." After she said that she refused to accept it, and then pouted: "Except for my mother of course!"
Zhong Minyan deliberately wanted to tease her, so he pretended to lie on the window sill and look in, and said, "Then I will see if the island owner's wife has come this time, and watch her enough!"
Linglong giggled and hurriedly pushed him, and said, "Be careful that those elders in Dotting Valley drag you out to fight!"
She hadn't finished speaking, just heard a "Huh" inside. The two hurriedly shrank under the window sill in fright, waited with bated breath, and dared not move.
He Danping said at this time: "Please put the bamboo strips in this bamboo basket."
So everyone threw the bamboo strips with their names into the bamboo baskets. When they arrived in front of Song Daochang, he didn't move. He just put the bamboo strips in his hands and bent them into various shapes.
He Danping smiled and asked, "Dao Chang Song hasn't written it yet?"
Song Daochang shook his head and said with a weird voice: "I want to come to the Xuanyuan School as a guest, so I shouldn't say anything. But since Shaoyangfeng is the organizer of this hairpin conference, he shouldn't hide himself. You Shaoyang School clearly still has it. The two didn't write the name on the bamboo sticks, but they assigned us to vote first. What does it mean?"
He Danping's face changed slightly, and she said, "I don't know what Song Daochang means? I have the Seven Halls of Shaoyang School. Seven people are here. I don't know who the two of Song Daochang's mouth are?"
Song Daochang sneered: "So it's not Shaoyangfeng's disciple! That must be a peeping rat! I want to see who is so bold!"
His broad Taoist robe slid slightly, and dozens of cold light sword auras were shot out of his sleeves, mixed with screams, and he slammed straight towards the window sill where Linglong they were hiding. This hand is called Xiu Wanjian, and it is one of the Xuanyuan School's proud stunts. Everyone in the audience did not expect that he said he would do it with his hands, and he was shocked when he shot such a sharp move.
Seeing that the wall was going to be shattered by the sword qi, it was too late, and then a gray shadow of lightning rushed past, unexpectedly before the sword qi! With only a bang, the wall of the Flower Hall was smashed to pieces by the sword qi, and the smoke was "chaotic". Everyone exclaimed, but it was so powerful.
Song Daochang's face turned blue, and it took a long time to sneer and said, "It's worthy of being the head of Chu, good posture, good ability!" He stared at the god-like man in the smoke, the man was unharmed, his face was "As usual, it was as easy as a stroll in the courtyard. He held two children with blue faces in his hands, it was Linglong and Zhong Minyan.
He Danping was so excited when he saw that his daughter was innocent, she forgot to blame, and hurriedly went over to caress her neck and repeatedly asked, "Is it all right? Is there any injury?"
Linglong was frightened and couldn't say a word with her lips shaking. He Danping was so distressed that he hugged her and hurried to comfort her. Zhong Minyan, who was on the side, was not so lucky. When Xie Lei looked at him blankly, he couldn't help but knelt down and said in a low voice: "Master..."
Yu Lei frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Get up first, go to the side! I'll talk about it later."
Zhong Minyan's heart sank, knowing that after the lottery, Master will definitely investigate the matter. It's not enough for Linglong, at most scolding her, I am afraid that, like Xuanji, I have to go to Mingxia Cave for a while.
When he thought of Xuanji, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't delivered her food at noon. It was almost the end of noon on this day. The little girl must be panicked with hunger. She stayed alone in that dark and silent place again, still hungry. Stomach...He couldn't help regretting it, and he shouldn't have agreed to Linglong's nonsense.
He silently retreated to the corner of the flower hall and saw He Danping whispering against Linglong. She still had a frightened look on her face, but she was not as pale as before, and she seemed to be a little bit unconvinced with her mother's reproach, pouting her teeth for a while.
However, it is said that Xilei silently rescued the two under the power of Xiwanjian. This hand naturally made everyone in the audience amazed. He deserves to be the head of the Shaoyang School of Central Plains, and he is well-deserved! He didn't reveal anything on his face. He just put the basket full of bamboo sticks on the mahogany table and said with a smile: "You guys are stubborn, making everyone laugh. The bamboo sticks have finished writing, so now we will start drawing lots. Right."
Everyone knows that he has a cold face and has always been a serious person. The more light on his face, the more irritated he is. This time his disciple peeped into the lottery, it can be said that Shaoyang sent an ugly. Even if everyone wanted to make a joke to ease the atmosphere, they didn't know what to say. Seeing He Danping came to draw lots, they shut up.
Who knows that He Danping was about to put her hand into the bamboo basket, but listened to Song Daochang sneered: "Okay, okay! This blue sky is full of people, and Shaoyang Peak is also starting to shame! You have no reason to let two disciples peek at the lottery to be discipline Lax! It is not in compliance with the rules that it has come and acted as a shield to prevent them from taking a share! I think there is no need to hold this hairpin conference!"
Xie Lei couldn't help being furious. This person provoked four times and spoke ruthlessly. If it weren't for his being one of the Xuanyuan Sect's four elders, he would have turned his face long ago. Although the former head of the Xuanyuan School and the head of the Xuanyuan School Zhushi Taoist verbally promised that the two schools were united and linked together, how could the hundreds of years of discord be eliminated in decades!
He immediately said sternly: "I wonder if Song Daochang has any advice?"
Song Daochang "touched" his sparse goatee, with a strange smile on his white and perfect face, and said, "I don't dare to be a teacher. But the hairpin conference has always been the rule, and everyone who comes to the scene Have the right to draw lots. If something cannot go, someone else can sign on their behalf. I would like to ask the head of Chu, the two Shaoyang school disciples just now, do you intend to be a wooden person and deprive them of the right to draw lots? "
Xie Lei suppressed his anger, and said solemnly: "The two boys are still young, one is fourteen and the other is only eleven. How can you qualify for the lottery if you are not even proficient in flying objects? Even if you win, pick the flowers. The task is to send them to death for nothing!"
Song Daochang shook his head and said, "Neither! We also understand the heart of Chu Sect guarding the calf. That girl is your beloved daughter? I heard that Chu Sect's two daughters have extraordinary skills at a young age, Shaoyang School It must be the one who cherishes everything from top to bottom. It must be that blue is better than blue. The little baby has to be tempered to become a talent. How can you protect it for no reason? But where are the rules of the lottery?"
Xie Lei has always endured and endured, he would say a few words of sourness, how could he bear it, and sternly said: "Song Daochang meant that I sheltered and protected?! Today I will..." He didn't finish, but he was held back by He Danping and forced back. She said softly: "Brother, don't get angry. Don't let the world's heroes laugh at us, Shaoyang Peak!"
The blue veins on Xilei's forehead burst out, took a deep breath, and was about to speak, but heard a naive voice next to him: "I write! I want to participate in the draw!"
Everyone turned their heads to see, but it was Linglong. Her face was a little pale, but her eyes were full of eager excitement, she actually regarded the defloration as a stimulating task. Seeing that her parents didn't respond, she couldn't help but anxiously said: "I want to draw lots! Father! Mother! Isn't the rule like this? You have a share! Why can't I participate?"
"Naughty!" Yu Lei only felt a headache, and really wanted to throw the two little ghosts off Shaoyang Peak and let them fend for themselves. He Danping sighed: "Linglong, the task of defloration is not a game. For thousands of years of big monsters, even your dad is very difficult to deal with, let alone you? Don't let your **** go, go down the mountain!"
Linglong's stern temper came up but didn't care, no one knew the parents' worries. She ran to the bamboo basket and said anxiously: "No! I want to participate! Mother, I am also eligible to participate! Didn't you give me all the gold a few days ago? Did you coax me? I don’t want to let daddy protect and take care of me all my life!"
Daochang Song clapped his hands and smiled: "Well said! Sure enough, there are no dogs and no dogs! Miss Chu is really admirable!"
Seeing this momentum, He Danping, if Linglong were not allowed to draw lots, I'm afraid this hairpin conference would not be completed. She really didn't want to put her daughter and lover in danger, so she looked at her husband for help. Yu Lei sighed for a while, seeing Linglong's expression excited, his small face flushed, completely putting the danger behind, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and suddenly made a living.
He turned his head and called Zhong Minyan, and said, "Since you are also participating in the draw, please write your names on it. You can write it, Minyan." After that, he patted his shoulder twice.
Zhong Minyan carefully figured out what he meant, feeling that it was vaguely meaning, but he himself couldn't understand and was not sure, so he hesitated to rub it, picked up the pen, and looked up at Xie Lei. He nodded slightly, and Zhong Minyan finally understood. He couldn't help but "confused" deeper in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he immersed himself in writing two names and threw them into the bamboo basket.
Now Song Daochang has nothing to say, Linglong is even more elated, she somehow bumped into such a big opportunity, maybe she can follow everyone down the mountain to meet the legendary big demon.
He Danping stretched his hand into the bamboo basket uneasy, and didn't dare to touch the layer of bamboo strips on it. For fear of accidentally drew Linglong, he pulled one out of it and opened it. "Fuyu The island owner Dongfang Qingqi."
In the corner stood a big man with long hair hanging down his shoulders, thick eyebrows and a sword nose, a tall figure, and a heroic appearance. He laughed, straightened his sleeves, stepped forward, and said loudly: "Let's get ahead! Everyone, let's go!" The voice was low and thick, but it was the person who had just grabbed the White Song Dao.
Everyone responded, and Song Daochang smiled and said, "Congratulations, Dongfang, you got the first stubbornness."
Dongfang Qingqi smiled and replied: "Yes, thanks to Dao Song. I only hope that there will be a few more floating jade islands later! We will take care of the defloration task."
As he spoke, the second lottery was drawn, and He Danping said, "Chu Yinghong, Hall Master Yuyang of the Shaoyang School."
As soon as the voice fell, a slender figure walked to the middle of the hall and said in a crisp voice: "Acceptance! Overstepping!" The congratulations were louder. Chu Yinghong was a famous beauty when she was young, but now she is nearly 40 years old, but she still has her charm, snow-skinned and beautiful appearance, and years of experience have made her agile and capable in her gestures. She is truly a woman.
She walked all the way to the row of five grandmaster chairs in the middle of the hall, and smiled at Dongfang Qingqi who was sitting on the first chair: "This time I have to rely on Oriental heroes for guidance."
Dongfang Qingqi hurriedly replied: "The Chu female hero is too praised! I am ashamed. This time, we must work together to eradicate the demons."
The two of them were greeting each other here, while He Danping had already pulled out the third bamboo strip. Turning it over, his face changed drastically. After a while, he muttered: "The Shaoyang School disciple...Zhong Minyan." After finishing speaking, she looked at Yu Lei as if for help, not knowing what to do.
Everyone was in an uproar, but they didn't expect that they would really draw that junior disciple. In an instant, dozens of eyes fixed on Zhong Minyan. Fortunately, although his face is pale, he still maintains his tolerance. When he hears his name, he walks to the row of chairs without hesitation and bows his eyes and said: "The disciple is shameless, please forgive me, seniors!" He was so calm and "chaos", he fell in his heart and sighed that he would become a great talent in the future.
Xie Lei thought that the chance of getting them was slim. Who knows that fate is tricking others, and the more you don’t want it to happen, things often happen the fastest. Fortunately, this little apprentice who usually has a hippy smiley face was calm and steady at this time, with a lot of face, he couldn't help but cherish his talents in his heart, and he was about to go to encourage him, but he heard He Danping read the fourth bamboo stick again. : "Xilei, the head of the Shaoyang School."
As soon as he heard that he had himself, he lifted his heart halfway, and walked towards the row of grandmaster chairs. Chu Yinghong was "touching" Zhong Minyan's head and talking softly to him. Seeing that Xi Lei was coming, she smiled and said, "Headmaster, I'm relieved with you. Otherwise, I'm afraid I can't save this child."
Zhong Minyan hurriedly knelt before Yu Lei, afraid to speak. Xie Lei said indifferently: "Get up. You don't need to be afraid, don't need to do anything, just follow behind me. This time it will be an eye-opener for you, but you will be fined to confine you in Mingxia Cave for a month after returning."
Zhong Minyan was moved in his heart, and said yes with tears. After standing up, Chu Yinghong smiled and "yin" to talk to Dongfang Qingqi.
Everyone here is saying words of encouragement, some even joking, saying that the task of picking flowers this time is covered by the Shaoyang faction. Song Daochang's face was ugly, so he shut up and didn't say a word.
He Danping relaxed a little, knowing that her husband had gone, he would definitely be able to protect Zhong Minyan with all his strength. He had always been cold-hearted. This last bamboo stick, but I don't know who will be drawn. She picked up a bamboo strip from the bamboo basket with two fingers, turned it over, her face suddenly turned pale.
She stared at the bamboo stick in disbelief, as if to see through it with her eyes.
Everyone finally realized that there was something wrong with her, Chu Yinghong asked lightly, "Sister Ping? What's the matter?" She also had a bad feeling in her heart, wouldn't it be so unlucky, even Linglong was picked?
It took a long time for He Danping to raise her head, tears shining in her eyes, and her slender shoulders trembling slightly, as if she was about to faint immediately. She turned over the bamboo strips and said intermittently: "Shao... Shaoyang school disciple... Chu... Xuanji."
The crowd was in an uproar.
