Chapter 603 Big Marriage (Two in One Big Chapter)

[PS: From tomorrow, it will return to normal two shifts, 12:00 am and 6:00 pm, apologies. 】

Another New Year's Eve, familiar yet strange.

The Nian Beast event is still an unshakable repertoire, but Ouyang Shuo lacks interest.

The activity of grabbing red envelopes ushered in a peak. Not surprisingly, the god-level lucky Xing Bing'er had another new achievement, and got a rare accessory, which made others envious.

[Xingyue Pendant (Dark Gold)]: Increase the speed of kung fu practice by 25%, and increase the concentration of true essence by 5%.

Even Ouyang Shuo felt jealous when he saw him.

In the excitement, there is a difference.

The talent team in Shanhai City is getting bigger and bigger.

As the Spring Festival approached, civil and military officials began to rush back to Shanhai City one after another. One is to continue the tradition of Shanhai City and celebrate the Spring Festival with Junhou; the other is to come for Junhou's upcoming wedding.

That being the case, there is naturally no reason to come empty-handed.

Except for Pei Ju who was still stationed at the withering fortress, the other seven county guards were all present. They brought special products from each county, such as strange stones from Zhaoqing County and sandalwood from Leizhou County, to show their hearts.

Ouyang Shuo has long said that for this big wedding, all officials should not compare with each other, let alone search for rare treasures among the people to encourage extravagance and pleasure.

To manage the territory well is the best gift.

The banquet in the Hou's mansion was over, and the civil and military officials returned to their respective mansions to watch the night with their families.

Since the release of the "Rise of the Family" expansion pack, the wilderness has slowly become different. The first one is that the family members of historical figures are quietly refreshed beside them.

Now Xiao He, Du Ruhui, Luo Shixin and other civil servants and military generals are no longer the lonely family and widows in the beginning. There is a big family in the mansion.

Inevitably, whether active or passive, Xiao He and the others will be involved in more conflicts of interest. Similarly, because of the existence of family members, these famous officials and generals have a touch of human touch than before.

The wilderness is becoming more and more real.

Countless people and interests are intertwined in Shanhai City. Even Ouyang Shuo, the lord, gradually felt that while this magnificent city was becoming more and more prosperous, it was also becoming more and more unfamiliar.

Some people say that when a person stands tall enough, he can see the crown of the tree from above, but everything under the crown of the tree that covers the sky has become blurred.

Now, Ouyang Shuo is standing at such a height, sitting guarding the royal city, overlooking the entire territory. Wherever he looks, there is only prosperity everywhere.

When I tried to see clearly, I only saw blurred and unfamiliar faces.

The ancients were honest and did not deceive people who were called lonely and widowed.

According to the ancient rules, on the eve of the wedding, Song Jia was taken to live in the Song Mansion, and they could not see each other until the time of marriage. The only ones who accompanied Ouyang Shuo were Bing'er and Qing'er.

Even Yingyou, because the Cui family moved to Shanhai City as a whole, they all returned to the family to celebrate the New Year. The entire Southern Border Protectorate Mansion looked lively and lively, but in Ouyang Shuo's senses, it was unusually deserted.

"In the end, are you still siblings?"

In the middle of the night, Ouyang Shuo leaned on the railing and watched alone, with an indescribable loneliness in his eyes. At this moment, Ouyang Shuo suddenly felt a trace of fear, fearing the passage of time.

Time passed year by year. Ouyang Shuo is getting more and more vicissitudes, but Bing'er is growing up more and more. He was really a little afraid, afraid of that day coming. When the little girl grows up and becomes a delicate girl, at that time, will she still have such dependence on his brother?

I'm afraid that by that time, the only ones who will accompany Ouyang Shuo are the icy throne and the equally icy Chixiao Sword.

As if feeling what Ouyang Shuo was thinking, suddenly, a thought came into Ouyang Shuo's mind.

Ouyang Shuo was overjoyed, a black light flashed, and the Heavenly Demon Spear, which had been sleeping for more than three months, suddenly appeared in his hand. I saw the Heavenly Demon Spear getting darker and darker.

If you look carefully, there is a magical power that tempts people to stare at the gun.

Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo immediately checked the properties of the Sky Demon Spear.

[Name]: Heavenly Demon Spear (Top Grade Divine Weapon)

【Hardness】: 90

【Sharpness】: 88

【Toughness】: 75

[Characteristics]: Blood devouring (has a certain chance of devouring the enemy's blood, promoting the evolution of weapons)

[Nirvana]: Domineering Blood (infused with the domineering spirit of the demon god, with a full-strength blow, the power shocks all directions, with the aura of absolute dominance, going forward indomitably, whoever hits it will die, the cooldown time is one month)

[Evaluation]: It is forged from the Heavenly God Stone, which is nourished by the blood and soul of the Demon God. A drop of blood recognizes the master, cannot be traded, cannot be dropped, and can evolve again.

After completely devouring and digesting the spirit of the Demon God, the Heavenly Demon Spear really evolved again. The three-dimensional attributes have been greatly improved, not only that, but also derived a nirvana.

"Those who are in the middle must die" reads the description, but it is extremely frightening.

Ouyang Shuo is relatively calm about this point of the five years of adventure experience in his previous life. The so-called "the one in the middle must die" is not absolute, as long as the opponent is strong enough, or has other means, they can escape.

Otherwise, with just this move, Ouyang Shuo would be invincible. In addition, the one-month cooling-off period is also very painful.

However, there was one thing that caught Ouyang Shuo's attention. This was the first time that Ouyang Shuo had seen the description of the level of "Top Grade Divine Weapon".

Even the Scarlet Night Sword infused with the soul of the Red Dragon has no such description.

It can be seen from this that even among the magic weapons, the Heavenly Demon Spear is the top existence.

"Long time no see, old man!"

Ouyang Shuo held the Heavenly Demon Spear and muttered to himself.

Seeing this, black lights flashed on the surface of the demon gun one after another.

"OK!"

Ouyang Shuo seemed to understand, and he was in a great mood. Holding the Heavenly Demon Spear, he walked into the courtyard and practiced the Yang family's marksmanship.

The bright moon hangs high, and the night is like water. In the dark night sky, fireworks are everywhere, gorgeous and dazzling. In Shanhai City, it was noisy like pity, with the sound of firecrackers and bursts of human voices.

In the courtyard, there was silence.

Ouyang Shuo held the Demon Spear in his hand and moved back and forth, making "sough" sounds from time to time. With the Heavenly Demon Spear in his hands, it became like a spiritual being, and the human spear became one.

Unconsciously, at this moment, the Yang family's marksmanship, Bajiquan and the halberd technique practiced in the previous life suddenly merged into one, no longer distinguishable from each other, and water and fire blended together.

But Ouyang Shuo didn't seem to know it, he kept dancing, and the sound of "Sa Sa" became more urgent the further he went.

It took a full hour for Ouyang Shuo to finish his work, concentrate on independence, and a smile flashed on the corner of his mouth.

A system notification sound came from Ouyang Shuo's ear.

"System prompt: Congratulations to the player Qiyue Wuyi, who has entered the state of epiphany, reached the state of unity of man and spear, and integrated his own martial arts to form a unique set of spear techniques. Please name the spear techniques!"

""Tianmo Spear Code"!" Ouyang Shuo didn't hesitate.

This marksmanship, only the Heavenly Demon Spear can make it, is worthy of the name.

There is no doubt that the just-born "Tianmo Spear Code" is the top-level god-level skill. After advancing, Ouyang Shuo's marksmanship proficiency did not increase but decreased, degrading to the fourth level [handy with ease].

At this moment, another system prompt sounded.

"System prompt: Congratulations to the player Qiyue Wuyi, who has mastered marksmanship and is officially promoted to the master of marksmanship. He will be rewarded with 2,000 merit points and 50,000 reputation points."

Before he knew it, Ouyang Shuo's marksmanship was so refined.

It's a pity that Ouyang Shuo is not the first spear master in the wilderness, otherwise, Shanhai City would have won the title of "Hometown of Spear".

*************

A night of fish and dragon dance, the lively New Year's Eve, is fleeting.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, as usual, there is another ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.

This year's ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens in Shanhai City has become more grand, grand, and more cumbersome.

At noon, it came to an end.

From the afternoon onwards, it was time for Ouyang Shuo's big wedding.

The entire Shanhai City has long been refurbished.

The big red lanterns, which symbolize the festival, are hung all over the streets and alleys. There are bell towers or drum towers built at every corner of the criss-crossing main roads, and a stage has been set up for each bell and drum tower.

All the theater troupes in the city were taken over by the Southern Border Protectorate.

The sound of babbling and rehearsal came intermittently from the major stages, it was really lively.

All the people in the city were talking about this extraordinary wedding.

In other words, they are enjoying this national carnival.

From the Song Mansion to Wangcheng, a red carpet has been laid along the way, and the imperial guards are on both sides of the red carpet.

Not only that, the entire Shanhai City was heavily guarded by the City Guard Division and the Imperial Guard Corps. The two intelligence agencies of Shanhaiwei and Black Snakewei are also deploying their defenses in secret.

Its purpose is to ensure that there will be no riots in tomorrow's wedding.

When happy events come to the door, God is also beautiful.

Since yesterday, the sky has started to clear up. The snow in the city began to melt slowly and merged into small streams, which flowed into the ditches on both sides of the road. By the afternoon of the first day of the new year, there was no trace of white in sight.

The whole city was flooded with festive red.

In the afternoon, people who watched the ceremony came one after another.

The first to arrive were the allies of [Shanhai City].

Bai Hua, Feng Prison Huang, Xunlong Dianxue, Xie Siyun, Jianqi Leiyin, etc., all the members who had just participated in the alliance gathered in Shanhai City again.

Everyone brings a big gift.

"Lord Baihua of Lingxi City, give me a string of top-quality agate beads."

...

"The lord of Xunlong Dianxue in Xunlong City will give you a string of Eastern Sea Orbs."

...

"[Tingyu Building] The owner of Jian Qi Lei Yin, a gift of a catty of top-grade agarwood."

...

The sound of reporting and singing is endless.

Zisu, the head of the Department of Internal Affairs, specially chose a side hall to store gifts.

Those who came the first day were all close friends of Ouyang Shuo.

The next day, that is, the second day of the first lunar month, is the real auspicious day, and there is an endless stream of people who come to congratulate.

The most important thing is the imperial court.

The four imperial courts of Xianyang, Luoyang, Dali and Quanzhou all sent special envoys to congratulate Marquis Lianzhou on his wedding.

There is no one other than Ouyang Shuo for this kind of honor.

Dali and Quanzhou are already closely related to Shanhai City. Ouyang Shuo's position as the Protector of Southern Border was bestowed by the two imperial courts.

As for Xianyang and Luoyang, it is another origin.

In fact, it is the special envoys of these two imperial courts that make others envious. Not for anything else, just because the masters of these two royal cities are Qin Shihuang and Han Wudi.

How difficult it is to get their approval.

The reason is that in Shanhai City, there are several heavyweight famous officials and generals in the Qin and Han Dynasties.

Those who have a relationship with the Qin Dynasty include Wei Yang, Bai Qi, Wei Ran, Zhang Han, Wei Zhang, Jing Jian, and Bailishi; those who have a relationship with the Han Dynasty include Xiao He, Han Xin, Huo Qubing, Xia Houying, and Huo Guang. And Zhao Ponu and others. Together, the two groups accounted for more than one-third of Shanhai City's historical talent.

The two major groups are the mainstay of Shanhai City.

Shen Buhai has already reported to Ouyang Shuo that he must be vigilant against these two groups, in case they really form an alliance. Otherwise, once the potential is achieved, it is bound to become a disaster.

Ouyang Shuo could only wait and see what happened.

The imperial envoy, in addition to bringing congratulatory gifts, also brought a special gift.

The four imperial courts jointly ordered Song Jia, the wife of the Marquis of Lianzhou, to be the first-class wife.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the wives of the princes were called "Madame". Its status is comparable to that of the queens of later generations.

Song Jia's receiving this imperial title is equivalent to obtaining a status that matches Ouyang Shuo's title of Marquis of Lianzhou.

This alone is worth thousands of dollars.

Ouyang Shuo and Song Jia's late marriage, apart from their personal relationship, they had to give an explanation to Song Jia, and there were also political considerations. It was precisely to establish Song Jia's status in the territory, so as to gain the support of the people in the territory.

Song Jia's imperial seal was far beyond Ouyang Shuo's expectation.

Among the congratulatory crowd, in addition to the imperial envoy, there is another category, which is the player group.

Among them, there are not only the lords and guild leaders who were invited to attend, but also the commoner lords who came uninvited. They said they came here to congratulate them, but their real purpose was to hope to have a relationship with Ouyang Shuo.

The popularity of the Four Seas Bank made Shanhai City the hottest existence in an instant.

Especially for the civilian lords, they have spontaneously classified themselves into the same camp as the [Shanhai League].

Ouyang Shuo's big wedding is not an excellent opportunity to get close.

The gifts brought by these people with ulterior motives are naturally of great value.

Ouyang Shuo never refuses anyone who comes.

Speaking of which, the fact that the Four Seas Bank was able to absorb a large amount of deposits had something to do with his status as the spokesperson for ordinary players.

In the game, civilian players already occupy the majority. Although they are not able to exchange a large amount of gold coins like the children of aristocratic families, they are still very impressive.

In terms of the total amount, civilian players actually occupy the bulk.

Depositing funds in Universal Bank is a normal choice for them.

It is one of Ouyang Shuo's goals to expand Shanhai City's influence to the entire civilian lord class through the Four Seas Bank.

In addition to these players, there are some special existences.

Among them, the most special ones are Wolf Warrior and Xiongba. Although the two of them did not come to Shanhai City to congratulate, they arranged for their confidantes to come with generous gifts.

Who doesn't know, [Shanhai League] and [Yanhuang League] are sworn enemies. In this case, the actions of Wolf Warrior and Xiong Ba are too intriguing.

Ouyang Shuo took this relatively lightly.
