Chapter 375 Groom
The sound of the drums was loud and loud, echoing over the wilderness, and getting closer.
The welcoming team consisted of more than a hundred men, everyone was smiling, wearing colorful costumes, some were beating gongs and drums, and some were holding torches.
The light of the fire was dim, and with the faint light, Li Ang and Pei Jing could vaguely see a bridegroom riding a horse in the middle of the welcoming team, wearing a red shirt, a white inner skirt, and black boots.
Jiang Gongfu.
Li Ang and Pei Jing looked at each other, their hearts sank.
Jiang official uniform is a dark red official uniform, usually worn by lower-ranking officials.
Yu Law stipulates that when ordinary people get married, they can wear dresses of higher grade than their own, that is, "shesheng", which shows the government's attitude of encouraging marriage.
Because of the custom of "shesheng", the crimson official dress is the most common groom's dress among the people.
It's just that the one on the groom's official body seems a little too particular - there is a pattern of Luan's title and long ribbon on it.
"The welcoming team?"
He Fanshuang, whose eyesight is not so good, could see clearly now, and moved his fingers to make a talisman pop out from the talisman plate on his right wrist, and held it in his palm.
The visitor is not good.
Although the folks in Yu State have a custom of welcoming relatives at night, there are no villages in front of this place, no shops in the back, and it is still along the railway line, so it is impossible for ordinary people to pass by.
Passengers in the compartment also heard the loud drum music, and rushed into the aisle in a panic, discussing and asking questions.
"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient!"
Pei Jing immediately turned around, and said in a loud voice: "Next is Pei Jing, a student who has worked in the academy for three years, and my father is Yu Guoshangshu Zuopushe. These two are my classmates in the academy. Now this carriage has encountered a little trouble .
Please also return to your respective compartments, lock the compartment doors, pull down the windows and curtains, and ring the Haotian bell.
No matter what noise you hear, no matter what noise you hear outside the window or outside the door, don't open the door or draw the curtains!
We will protect you all. "
Passengers who can sit in the nineteenth luxury car at night are often either rich or expensive. Naturally, they know some rumors about the mutation, and can recognize that the decoration of the three people really belongs to the Academy.
The Shangshu Zuo Pushe, with the surname Pei, is also convincing enough.
The panicked voices in the aisle stopped suddenly, and the passengers hesitated to return to their respective compartments, following Pei Jing's instructions.
"Shiro?"
The guards of Pei's family, holding Pei Jing's younger brother who didn't know what happened, walked through the aisle and came forward.
"Take Shichiro with you and enter the compartment as well."
Pei Jing spoke quickly and said to the guards: "Set up the warning talismans, and don't open the door even if you hear my voice later."
After finishing speaking, he looked at an old man in brocade clothes behind the guards, and said solemnly to him, "Wan Lao, stay and help me."
"Um."
The old man called Wan Lao nodded slowly. He seemed to be the entourage sent by Pei Jing's family to protect him. There was no aura around him, just like a rich man—except for the thick layer of calluses on his ten fingers and the backs of his hands. old scars.
Li Ang was surprised but not so surprised. Half a year after the academic exchange, Pei Jing also followed in the footsteps of Li Ang and He Fanshuang, and was able to reach the high level of listening to the rain.
This level still needs guards, so they can only be monks in the Cloud Patrol Realm—impossible in the Candle Sky Realm. Pei Jing was not sure about inheriting the entire family business.
Seems to have misunderstood Li Ang's subtle expression. Pei Jing explained: "Qilang is my brother of the same father and mother. He has been kept in Luoyang's grandparents' house all year round. Recently, he has shown his talent in cultivation, so he asked me to bring him back to Chang'an."
He Fanshuang narrowed his eyes and said, "Heavenly Enlightened One?"
"Um."
Pei Jing nodded.
If it is said that ordinary people practice, they need to tap the potential of the sea of qi like digging a reservoir,
Then the sea of Qi of the Sky Enlightened One is largely developed innately. In the initial stage of practice, the speed is much faster than that of ordinary people.
In ancient times, there were endlessly enlightened beings, and they reached their peak during the Jin Dynasty. However, as the "pure blood" family gradually disappeared, the frequency of appearance of enlightened people became less and less, and there have been no examples for a long time.
It is really rare for the Pei family to produce such a one.
Li Ang glanced at the closed door, and said nothing, now is not the time to talk about it.
"Four digits?"
A middle-aged man in a plain gown approached, holding a waist badge in his hand, "This is the magistrate of Zhenfu Siduji, Sun Xinzhi, one of the conductors accompanying this train."
Conductor?
Li Ang glanced at the waist card in the middle-aged man's hand. There is no problem with the pattern and texture on it, and it is the certificate of the Zhenfu Department.
Pei Jing frowned and asked, "Why didn't you say it just now?"
Sun Xinzhi explained: "Just now I don't know the situation of the incident, and there are other reasons for worrying about the mutation."
The sound of drum music and the welcoming procession were getting closer and closer, interrupting Sun Xinzhi's words,
The distance between the two sides is only two hundred steps left.
You can clearly see the appearance of the bridegroom officer in the middle of the welcoming team.
Handsome, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, his face seems to have been smeared with too much makeup, showing a greasy texture.
"Don't let them get any closer."
Li Ang said immediately. The visitor was not kind, and they couldn't move the carriage, which weighed more than 20 tons by itself, and had to consider the passengers inside and whether there were other enemies peeping in the dark.
You must find a way to stop the opponent.
Li Ang got out of the car and raised his right arm towards the sky.
Whoosh—
On the wrist of the right hand, the ingenious crossbow that has not been played for a long time reappeared in the sky.
The machine expanded its weight and rebounded, and shot a crossbow arrow wrapped in a talisman towards the sky above the welcoming team.
Boom!
The talisman activated itself in mid-air, forming a round fireball. Apart from the great momentum, it also set off a turbulent airflow.
The welcoming team was blown by the air current, and the clothes made loud noises, but no one stopped, and everyone marched towards the carriage in unison.
Whoosh—
Another talisman arrow burst above the welcoming team, but there was still no response.
These people walked on their own, as if they hadn’t noticed the huge lights and loud noises, or the threat of death, and kept shortening the distance between the two sides.
"Let me do it."
He Fanshuang clamped a land-formed talisman with two fingers, and threw it into the wind.
The railroad is made of materials similar to the walls of the imperial palace, which can resist magic effects to a certain extent. Therefore, He Fanshuang's target is not the railroad tracks, but the muddy ground next to the railroad tracks.
When the Earth Transformation Talisman falls on the ground, the surrounding soil immediately melts into mud,
Li Ang understood instantly, released his thoughts, and drove the mud to cover the surface of the railway, and piled up to form an upward **** to form a road.
bypass the car they are in and connect directly to the rear rail.
However, the welcoming team walked over the sloping slope, ignoring the newly paved road, and walked straight towards the carriage.
