Chapter 690: Suzaku Palace
"Oh, I understand!" Xiao Hua naturally knew the pain of being short of money, so he could only apologize with a smile.
But then he thought for a moment and asked again: "Since so many monks have come, are there any clues?"
"There's no clue!" Huang Tianming said a little irritably: "My mother-in-law is right and my father-in-law is right, but none of them can wake up Xiang'er, and Xiang'er is a virgin, how can he let her go at will? People are messing with it, but there’s no reason for it!”
"Oh, so Xiao Hua doesn't have any confidence anymore!" Xiao Hua said calmly: "Looking at this situation, I don't need to go to the Huang Family's Suzaku Hall. It's better to turn around earlier!"
"Haha, see what Fellow Daoist Xiao said, you are a guest from afar. Although my Huang family has declined, upright monks like Fellow Daoist Xiao still welcome you! Today is the last day for my Huang family to welcome guests. From tomorrow on, Xiang'er's illness will be left to fate. Well, I have worked hard for her for more than a year, so I can be considered worthy of her!" Huang Tianming said with a smile: "And the head of my family is also throwing a feast tonight. No matter whether I can treat Xiang'er or not, I can't wait for you. . In fact, to be honest, one more Daoist Fellow Xiao is not enough, and one less Daoist Fellow Daoist Xiao is not enough, so let’s just join in the fun!”
"Forget it~ Xiao just nagged me once!" Xiao Hua heard Huang Tianming's helpless tone and had no choice but to nod.
"Senior Huang, this junior has something to say, I would like to ask you something!" Xue Xue finally asked after looking around for a long time after seeing the scenery to her full.
"Oh, this is Junior Sister Xiao, her name is Xue Xue!" Xiao Hua said with a smile, holding Xue Xue's hand.
Seeing Xiao Hua and Xue Xue so close. Huang Tianming didn't know why, so he quickly smiled and said: "Fellow Daoist Xue has something to ask, but it doesn't hurt to ask!"
"Junior wants to ask..." Xue Xue hesitated for a moment and said: "Xiao Baicai... is she from the Huang family in Tianmen Mountain? What is her name? Does she have anything..."
Before Xue Xue could finish speaking, Huang Tianming's expression changed suddenly and he said, "This is just a rumor in the market. How can you believe it? Fellow Daoist Xue actually came to my Tianmen Mountain to inquire about the origin of a river fish. It's really...somewhat You have desecrated my Huang family!”
"Xue Xue~" After listening to Huang Tianming's words, Xiao Hua knew that Xue Xue was definitely not the first one to ask, and it was exactly what Huang Tianming said. If you take a river fish and ask if it was changed by the ancestors of the Huang family, isn't it blasphemy? It would be strange if Huang Tianming didn't get angry!
"Yes, senior brother!" Xue Xue knew something was wrong and quickly bowed: "This junior was curious for a moment, but Senior Huang misunderstood!"
"Hmph~" Huang Tianming flicked his sleeves, looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late, Fellow Daoist Xiao. Please..."
There was no longer the intimacy and familiarity in his tone earlier.
Xiao Hua smiled bitterly, raised his hand and said: "Fellow Daoist Huang, please!"
Qiang Yulian and Qiang Xuemei were behind Xue Xue, pouting slightly and sticking out their tongues. They were all thankful that it was Xue Xue who asked the question. If it were them, they would probably be expelled from Tianmen Mountain now.
At this time, it was dusk, but the sunset on the skyline around Tianmen Mountain was as brilliant as flowing fire. And in the increasingly dark sky, countless flocculent clouds are slowly forming, and the faint blue thunder light is gradually forming in the clouds... The Suzaku Palace is built in the central area of Tianmen Mountain, where several streams are located. The surrounding land is vermilion in color, which is really dazzling among the many greens. But it is really this vermilion color like a ball of fire, which makes people know that the Huang family of Tianmen Mountain has an extraordinary origin at a glance!
Huang Tianming led Xiao Hua and others to a distance of more than ten feet from the Suzaku Hall, and then they fell down and stopped outside the same vermilion wall. He called a disciple of the Huang family who was guarding the door and said to Xiao Hua said: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, please! Huang has other trivial matters, so I dare not accompany you!"
Xiao Hua smiled bitterly and had no choice but to cup his hands and say: "Fellow Daoist Huang, please be busy with your own business. Xiao will say hello to the head of your family and will leave soon!"
"Well, that's not necessary! The banquet will start soon. It would be a good thing for Fellow Daoist Xiao to get to know a few more fellow Daoists!" Huang Tianming cupped his hands, was a little polite, turned around and left!
"Senior Xiao, please!" The Huang family disciple bowed in front and said respectfully.
"Well" Xiao Hua looked at Huang Tianming's back and knew that Xue Xue's words had really offended him: "But why... is there such a deep taboo against pak choi? After all, it happened thousands of years ago. Is it like this? "Xiao Hua thought, and followed the disciple's guidance into the courtyard.
The yard is more than ten feet in size. There are some weird rockeries, some rare tree species and a few spiritual birds in it. It is quite like an ordinary person. When Xiao Hua entered the Suzaku Hall, he was stunned. The whole place was filled with chaos. The vermilion, the worn red lava on the ground, the four walls of the temple are engraved with countless runes, and there are countless pictures. The pictures may be scenes from ancient times, or scenes of monks fighting, or the roar of beasts. The runes on the four walls gathered like tadpoles towards the top of the hall. As the eyes moved upward, thousands of runes on the top of the entire hall actually gathered into a red bird pattern! "Good boy~" Xiao Hua was secretly surprised in his heart: "The Huang family of Tianmen Mountain must be the bloodline of the true spirit of Suzaku. This pomp is simply more embarrassing than ordinary cultivation sects, but look at this Suzaku Palace... it's really like Huang What Tianming said must be coveted by other cultivation sects, and we really can’t accept favors from others easily!”
"Senior Xiao, please come here!" Seeing Xiao Hua's steps sluggish, the Huang family disciple also felt proud in his heart, but his face was still respectful, and he raised his hand to signal Xiao Hua to sit inside the Suzaku Hall.
"Hmm~" Xiao Hua looked at the layout of the Suzaku Hall and then looked at the entire hall. He was shocked to find that dozens of white jade tables had been placed in the huge Suzaku Hall, and people were sitting around each table. There are some monks, these monks are either building foundations or refining Qi, etc., but most of them are Qi refining monks.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, you are so invited!" Deep in the Suzaku Hall, Huang Tianle was sitting at the top, accompanied by several monks in the early stages of foundation building nearby. When he saw Xiao Hua coming in, he pointed to the place slightly closer to him on the left and said.
Hearing Huang Tianle's greeting, all the monks in the Suzaku Hall looked at Xiao Hua, and dozens of spiritual thoughts swept over them. There was a lot of vigilance in their eyes, and the slightly noisy Suzaku Hall also became quiet.
Xiao Hua looked at the position Huang Tianle was pointing at. He either didn't make it too obvious, or he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Master Huang. I don't have enough cultivation, so I'd better sit down casually!"
"Haha, this is the guest monk from Moyun Village, his name is Xiao Hua!" Huang Tianle smiled and introduced to the monks next to him who were in the early stages of foundation building: "You are young and promising!"
"Hmm~" After hearing this, everyone withdrew their spiritual thoughts and said boringly: "Moyun Village actually has a guest minister who builds the foundation. It's not easy!"
Xiao Hua knew that these foundation-building monks were hostile to him, and he was not interested in the magical weapons they expected. He looked around to see how many empty spaces there were at the end of the table with the foundation-building monks. Wherever you go, just walk there.
Seeing that Xiao Hua was very knowledgeable, everyone became even more elated. The previous topic was brought up again, and the atmosphere in the Suzaku Hall gradually became more tense again. Huang Tianle also turned his attention back to deal with the nearby monks.
When Xiao Hua sat down, Xue Xue and others were also sitting around Xiao Hua. Qiang Lihao and others were sitting in a very upright posture with their eyes, nose, and heart in mind. Without him, they were the representatives of Mo Yun Village. The people of Moyun Village cannot be lost.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Xiao~" Sitting next to Xiao Hua, a monk in the early stage of foundation building, raised his hands and said, "I wonder when Fellow Daoist Xiao will be the guest of Moyun Village?"
Xiao Hua raised his head, looked at the monk with a prosperous face, and said with a smile: "Whose name is fellow Taoist? And which sect is he from?"
"Haha, I am a guest of the Luan Xima family, and my name is Yueqian!" the monk said with some pride.
"Luan Xima's family?" Xiao Hua frowned slightly, seeming to have some impression. After thinking for a moment, he immediately understood that when he joined Yu Lei Sect, there seemed to be a Qi Refining disciple named Ma Miaoming who seemed to be Luan Xima. Family, but after so many years, Xiao Hua has basically forgotten it.
Seeing that Xiao Hua's face was not as respectful as he expected, Yue Yan asked angrily: "Is that so? Isn't it possible that the guest from Moyun Village hasn't heard of Luan Xima's family?"
"Yue Qian?" Xiao Hua smiled for no reason in his heart. The name was indeed similar to Yue Qian, but looking at Yue Qian's serious look, he smiled and said: "Good Taoist Yue Qian knows that Xiao is ignorant and was just beaten by Mo Yun. I am a guest in the village, and I am very happy. I am not too familiar with the situation in Xi Country, so I am laughing at you!"
"Xi Country?" Yue Qian was stunned, with a hint of ridicule on his face: "Isn't it possible that Fellow Daoist Xiao has never been to Lian Country and Meng Country?"
"Oh, I'm really ashamed. It's exactly what fellow Taoist said! I'm bringing the junior brothers from Mo Yun Village this time because I want to go out more!" Xiao Hua had a look of fear on his face, as if someone had told him something. .
Seeing such a short-sighted fellow Taoist, Yue Yan's eyes suddenly showed arrogance. He pointed his hand and said, "Could it be that... Fellow Taoist Xiao doesn't even know the fellow Taoist sitting above him?"
Xiao Hua glanced around, and indeed, he really didn't know anyone, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "I really don't know anyone, so please ask fellow Taoist Yueqian to teach me!"
"Well, that's easy to say!" Yue Qian stroked his sparse beard under his chin and said, "Look at the monk on the left of Huang Daoyou. Well, that lean one and the very tall one are the members of the Luming Sect, a famous sect in our country. The basic monk Su Mingyu, this person is very good at water-based magic; look at the charred-skinned monk on the right hand of Huang Daoyou, who is also the monk Xie Yuji Xie from Jingqifeng; and then go to Su Mingyu and Su Daoyou Next, Daoist fellow Taoist Chang Sichang of Jiangyu sect, Daoist fellow Taoist Zhu Feng of Qi Mingzong, and fellow Taoist Mu Lanshan Lanping are all from the great sects; Well, next to Taoist friend Xie Yugai, Taoist friend Chu Jiangmen Qiming, hydroxyl Fellow Taoist Rider Ju Huifeng, Fellow Taoist Li Mingzhu of Xueyi Mountain..."
Yueqian is full of family treasures, and he made it clear to the dozens of monks who were sitting around Huang Tianle in the early stages of foundation building. He then pointed at the monks behind him and said with a smile: "The ones behind here are from aristocratic families like you and me. The most famous ones are of course Qu Yuchang from the Qushan Qu family, Yun Mo from the Yun Haoze Yun family, Zhang Wuxing from the Mingfeng Zhang family, Jing Lili from the Pujing family in Liaoyi, and Zhao Fanling from the Xunfu Zhao family. Others, hey, it’s just general knowledge, I don’t mind saying it.”
