Chapter 365: Moon Festival (Part )
Last time, we talked about how the fairy Chang'e came to the mortal world from the Moon Palace under the watchful eyes of the people. She came here to help Li Yi complete the mission of the Heavenly Dao. So what will she do? Let's read on.
Let's not talk about the fairy Chang'e coming to the mortal world, and switch the scene to the palace of the Western Chu King. At this time, the King of Chu Xiong Zhen was listening to the military report in front of the map, and a eunuch ran in in a panic.
The King of Chu was displeased and said, "You are so flustered! How can this be so disgraceful!"
The eunuch was a close confidant of the King of Chu who had been with him for many years. He shouted, "Your Majesty, please go outside the palace and take a look! That Wei Le, he is singing, and then the moon, that fairy Chang'e!"
If someone else had spoken like this, he would have been dragged out and chopped to pieces long ago. However, it cannot be blamed entirely on him. Li Yi invited the fairy Chang'e, which was indeed too unbelievable in the eyes of mortals.
"What nonsense you are talking about! Think about it first!"
The eunuch took two breaths, calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, Master Wei is holding a moon worship ceremony. He used his song to communicate with the gods and actually invited the fairy Chang'e from the Moon Palace to come out!"
The King of Chu was surprised and asked, "What? Say it again!"
"Your Majesty, the Prince of Wei wants to pray for the people of Chu and held a moon worship ceremony in the square. He used his singing to invite the fairy Chang'e, and now the whole city can see it!"
Xiong Zhen walked out of the hall with big strides, and saw a figure standing on a branch that stretched out from the moon. He shouted loudly, "Hou Zhen!"
Eunuch Hou nodded and said loudly, "Leave the palace!"
The eunuchs who were waiting on the side hurriedly brought the dragon robe to change the king of Chu's clothes, but the king suddenly waved his hand and said, "Change into plain clothes!"
Hou Zhen was stunned at first, but he reacted immediately, and waved his hand again, and the eunuchs ran all the way to get plain clothes...
Now let’s cut the camera back to Li Yi and see what is happening here.
The fairy Chang'e is wearing a light blue gradient chiffon long skirt and a white shawl. The corset is tied around her waist with an exquisite belt woven with red ropes that highlights her graceful figure. The shawl flutters in the wind around her arms, and her sleeves and skirt are fluttering, making her look very fairy-like.
She practiced with the energy of the yin and lived up to the expectations of the men in the world for a fairy. This kind of beauty is the entanglement of yin and yang, the yearning of the heart, the obsession of nature, and the intoxication of the spirit. However, the people who saw the true face of Chang'e did not have any frivolous thoughts at this time, as evidenced by the poem:
Taiyin achieved the status of Guanghan Immortal, and his entire body was filled with natural spiritual energy.
The luster of pearls and jade has all lost its luster, leaving only the fragrance that fills the world.
The fairy appears vaguely on the top of Baidi City, and mortals are able to see her.
A glance and a smile can be captivating; a sword and a dance can cut off all distracting thoughts.
No one knows who framed her and falsely accused her of taking the drug and ascending to heaven alone.
How could such a beautiful lady steal or be greedy?
I am willing to speak up for Chang'e and be the first to clear her name.
Li Yi looked at the carefully dressed Heng'e and thought: My dear wife, you have worked so hard. When I am done with my work, I will definitely go up to accompany you! Hiss, what if she leaves me in Guanghan Palace? I can't beat her, so I will be so frustrated! Maybe I can have a few more babies and be a full-time dad?
Forget it, let's wait until I'm stronger, at least I can come and go freely. No, I still have to cultivate to the point where I can subdue her, otherwise she will do something outrageous in a fit of rage, and I won't be able to stop her. Well, let's take it slow for now, good things take time!
Xiang Ying looked at the fairy Chang'e and praised her generously. Of course, she couldn't say anything good. After all, her cultural level was only that of a fourth or fifth grader in elementary school, not even high school!
Yuehua's feelings when she looked at Fairy Chang'e were very different. That was her sister-in-law Shiyu! She shouted loudly to the sky: "Sister-in-law Shiyu, I miss you so much!"
Yuehua said to Xiang Ying with pride: "How is it? Isn't my sister-in-law beautiful?"
"She is indeed very beautiful. Even a woman like me thinks she is so beautiful!"
In sharp contrast to these two are Qu Xia and Jing Xin. The more beautiful Chang'e is, the angrier they get. It's not a matter of jealousy, but the irreconcilable hatred of having their husbands stolen from them!
The two listened to Yuehua and Xiangying praising the fairy Chang'e for being so beautiful, so beautiful, and couldn't help but sneered: "How beautiful is she? Why can't I see it!"
Fairy Chang'e didn't care what people thought of her. After all, she was over 2,000 years old. How could she take these people seriously? She was very satisfied with Li Yi's perverted look. It has been the case since ancient times that women dress up to please themselves.
But before she could say hello, she felt a pressure coming from the east. Chang'e turned to the east and asked, "Who is coming?" Everyone, including Li Yi, was wondering why the fairy Chang'e was asking questions to the sky.
After a few breaths, a dark cloud floated over, and an old woman's voice came from the cloud: "Junior Lan Die, may I ask why Fairy Chang'e appeared here instead of staying in the Moon Palace?"
Fairy Chang'e released the energy of the moon, and the water vapor in the dark clouds immediately condensed into snowflakes and floated to the ground. In an instant, people in the square felt a chill. After the dark clouds dissipated, an old lady in a yellow-green skirt appeared.
The conversations between the extraordinary realms have their own channel, and mortals certainly cannot hear them. They can only see Chang'e and the mother-in-law confronting each other in the air.
Chang'e asked, "Are you a descendant of Qingluo?"
Qu Xia, who was at the restaurant, saw the visitor and exclaimed: "Master, the old lady, actually came out of the mountain and talked to Chang'e in the sky. Do they know each other? This is impossible."
The old woman bowed and said, "I am from the Tiancan Sect, my master is Leizu, and I am indeed a descendant of Qingluo. May I ask if the fairy is familiar with our ancestor Qingluo?"
Heng'e smiled and said, "So you are from the Heavenly Silkworm Sect. I know Qingluo, so what?"
Granny Landie said, "It's nothing, but I beg you not to cause trouble in the Kingdom of Chu."
This is the induction between the extraordinary realms. Once a strange extraordinary realm arrives, the local extraordinary realm will definitely come forward to inquire. If they come to provoke a war, they will definitely unite with other extraordinary realms in the territory to kill the invaders.
This is also the rule of the extraordinary realm, so launching a war to annihilate a country requires not only conquering the army, but also finding a way to deal with the opponent's extraordinary realm.
But there are many extraordinary masters in this world who live in seclusion. Although they will not attack others, if someone disturbs them or they cannot stand it, they may intervene in the war.
From the perspective of combat power, the Transcendent Realm's corresponding general combat unit is calculated in tens of thousands. For example, when Qu Lie resisted the Qin army, he killed thirty thousand people alone. However, if a targeted formation and coordination are used, it is possible for a mortal to kill a third-grade Transcendent Realm.
Some people may ask why Li Yi did not attract the attention of other extraordinary realms when he sneaked into Xi Chu. This was due to the martial arts taught to him by Empress Tai'an, which not only could block the secrets of heaven, but also could hide one's own strength. However, if he met face to face or exposed his extraordinary realm strength, he would no longer be able to hide it.
Didn't Li Yi attract Xiang Xiong when he used the supernatural Qi base in Jingxi Villa? He was originally going to return to Baidi City two days later, but after feeling the supernatural Qi base, he rushed back immediately, which disrupted the Qu family's plan. The last time Chang'e caught the adulterer, Xiang Xiong and Lan Die's mother-in-law didn't come, and it was Yue Lao who helped her cover up.
The situation was different this time. Xiang Xiong was not in Baidi City, and the fairy Chang'e still appeared in public. If nothing was done, it might cause chaos. So when Lan Die saw the beautiful figure in the moon, she set off for Baidi City.
Chang'e pointed at Li Yi and said to Grandma Landie, "He asked me to come. Why can't I come?"
Granny Lan Die shook her head and smiled, "As long as the fairy has no ill intentions, then you can come, but if you have other ideas, please forgive me for not letting the fairy enter Chu."
"What an unreasonable junior! When your ancestor and I became sisters, you probably hadn't even entered the reincarnation cycle yet! And you still shamelessly say you want to stop me?"
Seeing that they were about to fight, Li Yi quickly bowed and said, "Grandma Lan Die, I am Wei Le, and I invited Fairy Chang'e here just to pray for blessings. There is nothing else to do. Please give me some convenience!"
Chang'e said contemptuously: "Don't worry about her. There is no place in this world that I cannot go! I want to see how she can stop me!"
Li Yi cursed in his heart: You spendthrift woman! Do you know what peace is the most precious thing? Why do you have to resort to violence when you can make things clear? If there weren't so many people watching, I would really have to discipline you!
But on the surface, Li Yi still bowed respectfully and said, "Mother-in-law, Fairy Chang'e has lived in the Moon Palace for a long time, and she doesn't understand the rules of the human world that people from the extraordinary realm cannot enter other countries. Please forgive me, senior!"
The cassia tree under Chang'e's feet suddenly branched out, and a cluster of golden buds grew between Granny Lan and Chang'e. As the osmanthus flowers bloomed, the fragrance spread everywhere. This was Yue Lao showing his existence to the world. If he wanted to become famous, he had to do something big. After a few breaths, everyone in Baidi City could smell the fragrance of the flowers.
The aroma carried a Taoist charm, and Granny Lan Die naturally sensed the presence of the righteous gods of heaven and earth. She then bowed to the bright moon and said, "I didn't know the righteous gods had descended. I'm sorry for the offense. Please forgive me, Yue Lao."
She turned to Chang'e and bowed, saying, "I am the junior who did not know my limits. Please forgive me for my impoliteness. Please do as you please, I will leave now." After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.
Qu Xia shouted, "Master, are you leaving now?"
Granny Landie looked at Qu Xia at the window of the restaurant and said, "When this matter is over, bring Wei Le to the mountain to find me."
"Disciple obey!"
Grandma Landie nodded, then floated towards the east and finally disappeared into the night.
At the same time, from another window on the second floor, the Chu King Xiong Zhen, who was wearing casual clothes, looked at the sky and asked, "Is that the hidden master on Qinglong Mountain?"
Hou Zhen bowed and said, "My king, it is Granny Lan Die. I didn't expect her to come out of seclusion. It seems that this Fairy Chang'e is real."
Xiong Zhen nodded and said, "Yes, I think so too. I never thought that Wei Le has such extraordinary abilities?"
Jing Kui, the doctor of Tianji, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Le's ability is not heavenly. The so-called heavenly connection is to establish a connection with the way of heaven. Only the first-class great powers in the world can do this. They are the closest to the gods, and are not something that ordinary people like me can achieve."
Xiong Zhen looked at Jing Kui and asked, "Doctor Jing, how did he make his singing reach the Moon Palace?"
Jing Kui shook his head and said, "I didn't see that, but Wei Le claimed to be from the Yuezhi in the Western Regions. According to him, the Yuezhi were the descendants of Chang'e. If the two were related by blood, they could use witchcraft to transmit the sound to their ancestors or relatives.
However, there is no record in folk legends or ancient books that Chang'e and Dayi had offspring, so I have doubts about the bloodline theory and dare not assert that he used witchcraft. "
Xiong Zhen nodded and said, "Didn't they say before that Wei Le danced with the fairy Chang'e with swords, and that they had the same swordsmanship? Could they be master and disciple?"
At this time, Granny Lan Die had already left, and the fairy Chang'e in the sky said to Li Yi: "Why did you call me here?"
Everyone in Baidi City could hear the conversation that followed, and everyone's attention was naturally focused on the two of them.
"I pray to Yue Lao and the fairies, and beg the gods to grant blessings and protect the country of Chu for peace and prosperity."
Chang'e said coldly: "There is a war in the mortal world, and it was Chu that started the trouble. You still want me to bless you? It's really a foolish dream!"
Li Yi said in embarrassment: "Fairy, this is your first time in the mortal world. You should leave some expectations for the world, right?"
Chang'e glanced at the crowd on the ground and said, "Nowadays, rituals and music have collapsed, and most people in the world are greedy for fame and fortune, and indulge in wine and sex. They don't know that the heavens have eyes, and the earth has a heart, and they don't know that there is love between heaven and earth.
If people are heartless, what is the difference between them and animals? The reason why the human race can be passed down from generation to generation and survive endlessly is because of unity and cooperation. But what about now? There are only intrigues and deceptions between people! I didn't even see the word of love, so this trip is in vain. "After saying this, I turned around and was about to leave.
