Chapter 353 Congratulations with a Coffin
After sitting in the old book building for a while, Zhou Ji returned the seat to Yu Lian and walked up the stairs to the second floor.
Passing through the passage behind the bookshelves, and coming to the cliff flat of the back mountain, Zhou Ji looked up and saw that the cottages on the side of the cliff flat in the distance were decorated with lights and festoons, and the voices of Mr. Fifth and Mr. Six busy in the courtyard could be vaguely seen , From time to time, laughter came from the thatched cottage.
Seeing someone in the mountains, Mr. Fifth and Mr. Six put down the decorations in their hands and greeted Zhou Ji. After a few words of pleasantries, they realized that Ning Que was still in the room listening to the red tape of the fourth senior brother's forced marriage.
Ning Que had a miserable life experience. The whole family of Lin's family was slaughtered by Xia Hou more than ten years ago, and he was displaced since he was a child. Even the friends he made back then were discovered after investigating Xia Hou after they reunited in Chang'an, and died tragically in front of him.
After experiencing all kinds of things here, the gentlemen of the academy seem to have regarded Ning Que as their own family, and they are more and more concerned about Xiao Shisan's big day. Sang's fiddling.
"I'm going to be the bridegroom's official soon, why are you still so sad?" Zhou Ji stepped into the threshold, saw Ning Que hanging his head by the table at a glance, and couldn't help laughing.
"Don't mention it, I didn't expect getting married to be so troublesome. I thought it would be enough to enter the bridal chamber after praying to heaven and earth, but who knew that there are so many procedures and etiquette to go?" Ning Que rubbed his head, reached out and lifted a stack of documents on the table, The hinge stretched, falling all the way to the ground without finishing.
Zhou Ji stretched out his hand and lifted the book page with a soft force and sent it back to Ning Que.
Ning Que thanked him, Zhou Ji looked at the notebook in his hand, and said casually, "Isn't this a streamlined process? Marriage is always a troublesome thing, it's the first time~ It's normal to not get used to it. "
Ning Que gave Zhou Ji a blank look, curled his lips and said, "I know that you are making sarcastic remarks, co-authoring is not your marriage."
"Tsk~ I don't know how to be blessed when I am blessed." Zhou Ji looked around and asked curiously, "Where is Sangsang? She's not here?"
Ning Que drooped his head again, "She went to the scholar's residence this morning and said that she would not be able to see me again until she got married."
Zhou Ji hesitated to speak, and patted Ning Que on the shoulder as a comfort.
In two months, everything that should be prepared has actually been prepared. Even if there are some finishing matters, a few gentlemen from the academy came forward. After confirming that no help is needed, Zhou Ji bid farewell to Ning Que, walked out of the cottage and raised his eyes to the Yaping Thatched Cottage. look.
The master stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering, his beard and hair swaying in the wind, as if a fairy was relegated to the mortal world, and would go to the sky at any time.
Slowly withdrawing his gaze, Zhou Ji didn't go up to say hello to his master. The less contact they had, the more at ease each of them felt.
After all, this is Haotian's world, even if the gods have not yet awakened.
Zhu Xian, Zhu Xian, it seems that it is time for you to show your strength.
Zhou Ji spread out his right hand, the square pattern in the palm of his hand glowed faintly, and he held his palm empty. The master in the courtyard disappeared at some point, Zhou Ji turned around, and his figure disappeared into the mist in the mountains.
Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye it was the day of marriage.
These few days passed quickly for Zhou Jimo Shanshan, but for Ning Que and Sangsang, a new couple separated for several days, it felt like years.
The Emperor Tang rehabilitated General Lin Guangyuan of Xuanwei, so the seized General's Mansion was naturally rewarded to Ning Que as his mansion.
After two months of renovation and decoration, the walls and halls have been renovated.
Ning Que's "old friends" from when he was studying in the front yard came to congratulate him one after another. The traffic flow stretched for more than ten miles, and the whole street was no longer desolate as it used to be.
As the new adjudicating priest of Xiling, Ye Hongyu naturally came to watch the ceremony on behalf of the Xiling mission. Mo Shanshan was the owner of the Mochi Garden and represented the Dahe Kingdom mission, so he also left the water pavilion early.
However, when she was leading the Mochiyuan convoy towards Lin Mansion. No, it was Ning Mansion, there was a commotion behind the convoy.
Mo Shanshan thought it was a certain family from the Tang Dynasty who also came to congratulate Mr. Shisan of the academy, but found that the people on the street dodged left and right, and an ethereal and crisp sound came from the rear of the motorcade, suppressing the surrounding noise.
Outside the gate of Ningfu, there was smoke and firecrackers.
The red paper wrapping the firecrackers was scattered all over the ground amidst the crackling sound, and the children watching were running around in the snow, laughing from time to time.
Ning Que was receiving Zhong Dajun, a classmate in the front courtyard at this time. Seeing Zhou Ji standing in the courtyard with a slight frown, he couldn't help showing doubts, and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Zhou Ji shook his head, looked at the wing on one side, perceived through the courtyard, wing, courtyard, and street, and saw the motorcade of Mochiyuan parked at the corner of the street, and a group of ascetic monks behind the motorcade.
"The White Pagoda Temple of the Moonland Kingdom. There is also the Hanging Temple of Lanke Mountain." Zhou Ji looked at the rickety old woman headed by him, and turned his gaze to another skinny old monk beside her.
The old monk's realm has entered the late stage of knowing fate, and he can step into the peak with just one step at the door. He has kept his eyes slightly closed all the way, as if wandering away. Surrounding, but unable to detect who is peeping.
"Lord Mo Shan, I only called you Lord Mo Shan for the sake of the book sage. Today's matter has nothing to do with you. If you are sensible, let me get out of the way, so as not to cause disasters for Mochi Garden!" Qu Ni's eyes were dark, and her face Shen Rushui, the wooden stick in his hand trembled slightly, if he hadn't suppressed the killing intent in his heart, he might have done it already.
Mo Shanshan seemed calm and weak, but in fact he was firm in heart, soft on the outside and strong on the inside. Facing Qu Ni's threat without fear, he stretched out his hand to hold down Shao Hua's arm that was about to draw the sword, and said in a deep voice, "Master should say this to me." Just listen to yourself.
Mr. Shisan is overjoyed today. The master and all the gentlemen of the academy will be here in person. The master is coming so aggressively, it must not be for congratulations, right? "
"Why not?" Qu Ni sneered, and said in a sullen tone, "I heard that Mister Shisan got married, so I specially invited Master Xuankong Baonan, who traveled thousands of miles from Moon Wheel to Tang Kingdom to congratulate you, you are neither a newcomer nor a newcomer Relatives, what qualifications do you have to stop here?"
Qu Ni knocked on the floor tiles with a wooden stick in her hand, and her ear-piercing male duck voice spread throughout the street, "Could it be that you have been taken into the house by Ning Que and made a concubine?"
"It's a bunch of nonsense!" Shao Hua heard Qu Ni's slander, drew her sword and stabbed at Qu Ni.
"Master Qu Ni, since you are the presiding officer of the White Pagoda of Yuelun Guoshi, how can you insult others at will?" Handing Shao Hua to the two junior sisters beside him, Mo Shanshan stepped forward, looked at Qu Ni coldly, and said in a tone With anger in his eyes, "Master, please apologize!"
"If you are really innocent." Qu Ni had long harbored resentment towards Mo Shanshan because of the wasteland hot spring, and was about to say something even worse, but was interrupted by a Buddha's name. He closed his eyes slightly, signaling her not to speak any more.
Master Baonan is Baoshu's younger brother, and Qu Ni tried her best to get help from Xuankong Temple, at least to give him some face, but it's just a face, asking her to apologize to the little girl in front of her, With her perverse, arrogant and domineering character, she definitely refuses.
"Get out of the way, I won't argue with you about today's affairs." Qu Ni snorted coldly and said impatiently.
"You insulted my reputation, I want you to apologize." Mo Shanshan didn't retreat an inch, and the focus of his gaze through the lens fell directly on Qu Ni's eyes. The firmness and stubbornness made Qu Ni angry.
Qu Ni was furious and refused to apologize no matter what.
Mo Shanshan took a step forward, stretched out his left palm, and drew his sword across his palm. Just when the blade of the sword was about to cut through his palm and blood was about to pour out, an extra person appeared in front of him out of thin air, holding the sword with his fingers, blocking it. her behaviour.
"What are you going to do?" Zhou Ji carefully took off the sword in Master Mo Shan's hand, looked at her palm, and was relieved after confirming that there was no wound.
Mo Shanshan's cold and firm gaze softened and softened, feeling the warmth and itchiness of his fingertips rubbing against his palm, he turned his head to look at Qu Ni, whose complexion changed slightly and became tense.
Mo Shanshan suppressed the grievance in his heart, and said in a calm tone, "Master Qu Ni insulted my reputation and refused to apologize. Only a duel can give me my reputation."
Zhou Ji looked at the stubborn woman in front of him, feeling more and more pity in his heart.
Turning to look at Qu Ni, Zhou Ji's eyes flashed a trace of coldness.
When he was in the wasteland last time, he let Qu Ni go, but now it is really too much for the Holy Mother.
Sensing the undisguised coldness in Zhou Ji's eyes, Qu Ni seemed to be suddenly placed in the ice of ten thousand years, her whole body trembled, and she took two steps back. Only Master Bao Nan beside her could give her a sense of security.
'No distance.' Bao Nan's slightly closed eyes were completely opened at this time, staring fixedly at Zhou Ji, with no mercy on his face. ‘No, definitely not without distance. Maybe it was the other party who had been hiding in the crowd all the time, and only managed to pass my eyes with the help of body skills. '
Standing behind Bao Nan, Qu Ni glanced at the Ning Mansion not far away, with a flash of unwillingness.
Two months ago, the news that Ning Que defeated Jiange Liu Yiqing with Xiling Haotian Shenhui spread to Yuelun, which instantly broke his previous rumors of being possessed by demons.
The demonic energy left by Ke Daoshi's corpse clearly indicated that Ning Que was possessed by demons, and it was impossible to display Haotian Shenhui.
So Qu Ni took Dao Shi's frozen body and traveled from Moon Wheel to Tang Kingdom, traveling day and night, planning to make a big disturbance in Ning Mansion on her wedding day, and expose the fact that Ning Que had become a demon in front of everyone in the world.
Now being stopped by Mo Shanshan and Mr. Zhou from the old book building, Qu Ni's expression was distorted and full of resentment. She glanced around and found more and more people gathered. Making a big fuss will definitely alarm the Ning family and expose Ning Que in public.
Looking at Qu Ni who was dazzled by hatred, Zhou Ji felt no pity anymore.
Raising his hand, he summoned a thunderbolt, piercing the sky in a clear sky, and with a roar, it struck towards Qu Ni.
Qu Ni was caught off guard, and she hadn't had time to react at the beginning of her life. Fortunately, a golden light propped up from her side dangerously and blocked her.
bang~
The thunder light exploded, and the fine arc diffused along the golden Buddha seal. The originally radiant Buddha seal was covered with dense cracks along with the arc, as if it might break at any time.
"Mr. Thirteen of Datang Academy's wedding, it's too crazy for you to bring the coffin to congratulate!" Zhou Ji took another step forward, his magic power communicated with the world, his vitality gathered into clouds, and with one step, another thunder fell.
Bao Nan's expression changed slightly, and he realized that the power of this thunderbolt was more than double that of the previous one, and quickly opened a new Buddha seal, and the two Buddha seals were shattered, and the thunder light broke through the two Buddha seals and weakened most of them, Qu Ni finally With time to react, he barely blocked the remaining power of the thunder.
"Dao Shi's challenge to Ning Que was defeated, and his death is justified. If Ning Que dies, will the master also go to the White Pagoda Temple to seek your life?"
Zhou Ji's voice fell, and he waved his hand, another thunderbolt fell, and the third thunderbolt Nan and Qu Ni worked together to block it, but even so, the two spurted blood, each with internal injuries.
"The most important thing!" Zhou Ji opened his hands, and the mana in his body surged, condensing a lavender thunder light, and blasted towards Qu Ni.
"You used to target Shanshan several times in the wasteland, but now you humiliate her reputation in public." Zhou Ji's face was as dark as water, and he said coldly, "Die!"
The thunderbolt from the clear sky, the rolling thunder, coupled with the turbulent heaven and earth vitality around, let alone the Ning Mansion, even the Nanmen Taoist Temple on the other side of Chang'an City can feel it.
Ye Hongyu noticed Zhou Ji's aura, and arrived first, his eyes followed the second thunder, he paused, and stopped beside Mo Shanshan.
Ye Su, Jun Mo, Chen Pippi, besides the master and Li Slowly, several other gentlemen present also rushed to look at the brilliant thunder next to the Ning Mansion.
"What's the matter? Who is Mr. Zhou fighting with?" In the crowd, a figure in a red shirt and a groom's crown squeezed over. Hearing the third reason Zhou Ji said, he frowned slightly and turned his eyes on on the ice coffin behind Qu Ni.
Qu Ni's qi was locked by the sky thunder, and she couldn't avoid it. She held up all her true energy and wanted to work with Bao Nan to block the blow. How could the two of them be able to resist the fusion of the five spirits and lightning methods, with the help of the power of heaven and earth, and their own cultivation.
Seeing the Buddha's Brilliant Treasure Seal collapse like ice and snow melting in the thunder light, Qu Ni suddenly glanced at Ning Que who was squeezed out of the crowd, her muddy eyes were bloodshot and red, she opened her mouth to spit out blood, and the voice of resentment was like crawling out of **** The evil ghost hissed, "Ning Que has long been bewitched!!"
As she opened her mouth to let out her vitality, the Buddha's light that could withstand one or two collapsed in an instant. Bao Nan stepped forward to block the thunder with her body, but was pierced by the sky thunder, and Qu Ni beside her was also spared. Before he could tell the truth, he was submerged in the plasma, his whole body turned into coke, and fell on his back, into the ice coffin.
Bao Nan's cultivation base is already in the late stage of knowing his fate, and he was only affected by the sky thunder, so he didn't die directly, but even so, most of the sea and snow mountains in his body were destroyed by the thunder light. Without decades of hard work, it is difficult to recover .
Mo Shanshan couldn't help feeling sorry for the two of them when he saw the miserable state of the two, but before she could speak, he saw that Zhou Ji was struck by another thunderbolt, and the coffin behind Bao Nan was smashed into fly ash.
