Chapter 1023 Customs
Lu Yang originally wanted to take Yun Mengmeng to visit Tao Yaoye, but before he went up the mountain, he saw the disciples of Wuchen Peak gathered together at the foot of the mountain. It was very lively, and Tao Yaoye was among them.
"Junior Sister Tao, what are you doing at the foot of the mountain?" Lu Yang asked in confusion.
"Senior Brother Lu, happy New Year, and Senior Sister Yun, happy New Year. This is not about celebrating the New Year, we are cleaning."
"You're all standing at the bottom of the mountain for cleaning?"
"Of course it's because Master is here." Taoyaoye explained with a smile.
Suddenly, a strong breath burst out from the top of the mountain. This breath continued to spread out, expanding in scope, bringing up countless dust.
"Look, Master is using his Immortal Immortal Body to do a general cleaning. Normally, Master suppresses the Immortal Realm, but now she is cleaning up during the Chinese New Year. When the Immortal Realm is opened, all the dust will be swept away."
"The mountain is very clean now."
This was the first time Lu Yang saw the Wugou Immortal Body used like this. It was too luxurious.
"Is it convenient?"
“It’s really convenient.”
"I heard from the senior sisters that our Wuchen Peak cleans the cleanest every time during the Chinese New Year."
Lu Yangxin said that was not the case. How could the Sixth Elder clean the other peaks so cleanly?
"Come to think of it, no one seems to be cleaning up at Tianmen Peak." Lu Yang suddenly remembered that we should be more careful during the New Year.
"Someone is working." The Immortal Fairy said, so that Lu Yang didn't have to be mentally burdened and just had fun. "When we left Tianmen Peak, the fourth master took our sect master and the skewers master to clean up. , I don’t know if it was on my own initiative or on the request of Girl Yun.”
The leader of the Immortal Sect, as well as Master Liu, Master Gao and others, are all the demons refined by the elder sister, and they absolutely obey the orders of the elder sister.
"That's good." Lu Yang smiled, letting go of one thing and celebrating the New Year in a down-to-earth manner.
Crackling, crackling, crackling...
How can we celebrate the New Year without the sound of firecrackers? As New Year’s Eve approaches, the atmosphere of Taoist Chinese New Year becomes more and more intense.
There was a senior sister who was holding two firecrackers and spinning them around in circles. The firecrackers couldn't blow up herself, and she didn't let go even after the two firecrackers were blown up.
Lu Yang hadn't fired a cannon for a long time. Seeing this, his hands were itchy and he wanted to give it a try.
Whoosh—
A cannonball passed over Lu Yang's head and exploded not far away.
Then came "swish, swish, swish", and countless shells flew past, some from the left side, some from the right side, and a series of explosions sounded.
Only then did Lu Yang realize that at some point, there were many brothers and sisters standing on both sides. They took out cannons from their storage rings and fired at each other. The explosion was deafening.
The power of these shells is mediocre and can only kill monks in the Qi training period. In Taoist sects, they can be fired casually and will not even damage their clothes.
Some brothers felt that the cannon's firing speed was too slow, so they simply rounded their arms and threw the shells to the opposite side. Not to be outdone, the other side counterattacked in the same way.
There was also a senior sister sitting on a stool. There were countless cannonballs piled under the stool. A spark fell, ignited the cannon pile, and blew her up into the sky.
Crackling.
"...Why is this different from the cannon fire in my memory?" The corners of Lu Yang's mouth twitched. This was no cannon fire. The Taoist sect had almost become an arsenal.
"I think it's not bad." Yun Mengmeng smiled, fire reflected in her eyes, "It's much less powerful than my self-destruction."
"It's as powerful as your self-destruction that there will be big problems, right?" Lu Yang complained in a low voice.
"No way." The Immortal Fairy appeared and said, "We were celebrating the New Year, and I often blew myself up a few times to liven up the atmosphere, and later it became a routine."
"People in the world admire me very much. They want to imitate my posture and make some noise during the Chinese New Year. But they can't make such a big noise as my self-destruction, so they settle for the next best thing and set off firecrackers instead."
"Is it the most orthodox way to self-destruct during the Chinese New Year?"
"Of course, you don't even look at my influence." The Immortal Fairy put her hands on her hips, feeling proud.
"I see that this Chinese New Year is not too lively, why don't I just blow myself up and show you the tradition?"
"No, no, no." Lu Yang was shocked and asked the fairy to self-destruct once. The entire Taoist sect would fly into the sky.
Boom—
There were muffled sounds in the sky, including the roar of dragons and the roar of lions.
Lu Yang looked up and found that it was his senior brothers and sisters who used the art of transformation to turn themselves into dragons and lions. They fought fiercely in the air, and there were fireworks as a background. The scene was grand and beautiful, just like a dream bubble. The final battle between the protagonist and the villain at the end is more than enough.
"Is this what dragon and lion dances look like during the Chinese New Year?"
Lu Yang felt more and more that this was completely different from the Chinese New Year in his memory.
"Hey, is that a lion too?"
Lu Yang noticed that among a group of dragons and lions, there was a lion that looked different, eight or nine feet long, terrifying in appearance, with round eyes, red hair that looked like a fire cloud, and a single horn on the top of its head. It was dancing like a dragon. The lion dance is extremely lively.
To be precise, he was sticking out his tongue and shaking his head.
The lion-like monster noticed Lu Yang's gaze, and suddenly flew down, looked at Lu Yang, and spoke human words.
"Can you see me?"
"Who are you?!" Lu Yang was suddenly shocked. Shouldn't he see it?
"Well, isn't this the Nian Beast?" The Immortal Fairy recognized the origin of this monster beast at a glance.
"The Nian Beast? The monster that was cultivated by the Time Fairy using the Time Dao Fruit?" Lu Yang remembered. The Immortal Fairy briefly introduced the Nian Beast before, and the senior sister also said that she wanted to catch a Nian Beast but failed.
"Yes, it is a monster created by the Immortal of Time. It is quite magical."
"This is a kind of monster that lives in time. It only appears on New Year's Eve every year, and then jumps in time to the next New Year's Eve. It repeats this way, so we have the saying of celebrating the 'New Year'."
"They like the color red and lively. Every year during the folk New Year, they will hide and play in the celebrations. This time, it is probably because our sect is more noisy than the folk during the New Year, so we attracted one."
"Since their birth is related to Dao Fruit, only immortals can see them."
"So you are the Nian beast?" Lu Yang understood the origin of the monster in front of him and became less nervous.
"You are an immortal, no, you only have the stage of transforming into gods!" This Nian beast was shocked. Only immortals can see them. This mortal only only has the stage of transforming into gods. How could he see it and also know about the existence of these Nian beasts? .
What is the second boss doing?
Yun Mengmeng seemed to have noticed something, and turned to look at Lu Yang, and saw that Lu Yang seemed to be talking to something invisible, acting very similar.
"Are you so naive as the second in charge? I stopped doing this kind of thing when I was sixteen." (End of Chapter)
