Chapter 374 Tongxian Festival
Mo Hua passed the rank determination and officially became a first-class formation master.
When the news reached Tongxian City, everyone was delighted.
This is the first and only first-class formation master who was born as a casual cultivator in Tongxian City so far.
Elder Yu decided to celebrate.
Not only to celebrate Mo Hua's becoming a first-class formation master, but also to celebrate Tongxian City's concerted efforts to kill the great monster Feng Xi.
In addition, Elder Yu had another purpose, which was to give Mo Hua a farewell party.
Mo Hua was about to go out and travel and leave Tongxian City.
Mo Hua can be said to have made great contributions to killing the great monster and keeping Tongxian City stable.
Elder Yu had no way to repay him, so he wanted to bid farewell to Mo Hua with a city-wide festival.
Elder Yu specially found Chief Zhou, and after several discussions, November 1 was designated as Tongxian Festival.
After Mo Hua returned from Cangyun Sect, he saw Tongxian City decorated with lights and colors, with a pre-festival atmosphere.
After knowing the whole story, Mo Hua was very happy.
After all, festivals are very lively.
Although Qingshan City is large, it is obviously not as lively as Tongxian City, and naturally not as interesting as Tongxian City.
However, Mo Hua is still a little worried:
"We have built a large formation, and the spirit stones are almost used up. Do we still have spirit stones for the festival now?"
Elder Yu said calmly, "We were poorer before, but didn't we still celebrate the festival?"
Mo Hua was slightly stunned and felt that it made sense.
Elder Yu smiled and said, "No matter what, festivals must be celebrated. It's just that we celebrate more lavishly when we are rich and more thrifty when we are poor."
"Although most of the spirit stones were used to build the large formation, the remaining spirit stones are enough for us."
"What's more, the foundations of the equipment refining business and the alchemy business are still there, and now there are mountain roads, which are convenient for travel. In a few years, Tongxian City will become more and more prosperous."
Mo Hua nodded, and he was relieved.
Then he asked with some expectation: "Will life get better and better in the future?"
Elder Yu nodded, "Don't worry, casual cultivators are not afraid of hardship. As long as they are not oppressed, life will always get better and better."
As long as they are not oppressed...
Mo Hua felt complicated when he heard this.
The way of man is to take what is not enough to support the surplus.
There should be many cultivators who are oppressed and exploited in this world, and after Tongxian City...
Elder Yu saw that Mo Hua didn't know what he was thinking, and frowned, so he patted his shoulder and smiled:
"Don't think so much, practice hard, don't lose your Tao heart, and do what you can."
Mo Hua's eyes lit up and nodded:
"Okay!"
Then they celebrated the festival happily.
He also invited Zisheng and Zixi to play together.
Mr. Zhuang agreed to accept disciples, and Aunt Xue completed her mission on this trip, so she gave the brother and sister a holiday.
And they will leave Tongxian City soon, and it is still unknown whether they can come back.
So Aunt Xue didn't restrict the two children, wanting them to have fun and not have any regrets.
Bai Zisheng was very happy, and Bai Zixi's eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.
On the day of Tongxian Festival, Mo Hua played the role of "landlord" and took Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi for a day.
The streets were bustling during the day and brightly lit at night.
Mo Hua led the way in front, and Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi followed behind him.
Bai Zisheng looked around with great interest, and when he saw something new, he asked:
"Mo Hua, what is that?"
"Mo Hua, is that delicious?"
"Mo Hua, this bamboo dragonfly can actually fly..."
...
As a junior apprentice, Mo Hua had to answer patiently.
Bai Zixi didn't talk so much, but when he saw a cake he had never eaten before, he would stop and look at it silently.
Mo Hua understood, bought a few pieces, and shared them with Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi, eating them while walking.
Although it was a "buy", Mo Hua didn't have to pay for the spirit stones.
Because if he paid, others wouldn't want it.
Almost all the cultivators on the street knew Mo Hua, and they also knew that Mo Hua was a small formation master who built a big formation and killed a big monster, and now he was a first-class formation master recognized by the Dao Court.
So no one wanted Mo Hua's spirit stones.
Some cultivators who set up stalls would pick out a few good things from their own sales and give them to Mo Hua.
If Mo Hua refused, they would be unhappy.
The three of them walked all the way and got a lot of things, but didn't spend a single spirit stone.
Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi were very surprised.
Bai Zisheng whispered: "Mo Hua, if I didn't know you, I would suspect that this street was opened by your family..."
Mo Hua didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
During the day, the street was bustling with people coming and going.
At night, when the night fell, the lanterns were hung, and the lights were shining against each other, extending to the distance, Tongxian City was another scene.
There are many interesting activities at night.
For example, the usual demon fighting show in Tongxian City.
Because it is to celebrate the hunting of Fengxi, the "demon beast" in the "demon fighting show" has become a pig demon, which is huge and looks stupid.
The pig demon was disguised by a demon hunter.
Because the pig demon was huge, there were many demon hunters pretending to be it.
In addition to Da Hu and his three men, Da Ping and Da Zhu, and several other teenagers, even Yu Chengyi and Yu Chengwu, two adults, joined in the fun.
After watching the "demon fighting show", they started to eat the "pig-killing dishes".
Feng Xi had been disintegrated into black ash by Mo Hua's formation. The pig-killing dishes here were from other herbivorous pig demons.
The demon hunter killed a lot of pig demons and handed them over to Fu Shan Lou for cooking, which was specially eaten on the day of the festival.
To celebrate the killing of the pig demon, pork must be eaten.
Every cultivator in the entire Tongxian City ate a portion.
This became a custom in Tongxian City. Every November 1st Tongxian Festival, in order to celebrate the killing of the pig demon Feng Xi, the cultivators of Tongxian City would eat a portion of pork.
After eating the pig-killing dishes, fireworks were set off again.
This time, the fireworks array was still drawn by Mo Hua.
On the basis of the original formation, he added a new formation.
Combining the experience gained from the Five Elements Demon-Slaying Formation, using the theory of the Five Elements' mutual generation and restraint, and the way of spiritual consciousness calculation, the colors of the fireworks are richer, the trajectory is clearer, and the spiritual stones consumed are also less.
Before setting off the fireworks, Mo Hua took Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi to climb onto a roof.
"This roof is Elder Yu's house, which is very suitable for watching fireworks."
Mo Hua said to Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi.
Bai Zisheng was stunned and secretly said, "Will Elder Yu not cause trouble for you if you climb on his roof?"
"No." Mo Hua shook his head and said, "I told Elder Yu in advance."
At most, a few tiles will be broken, which is not worth much money.
Bai Zisheng nodded, and then he was relieved.
So three fellow disciples, a junior brother, a junior sister, and a junior brother sat side by side on the eaves, shaking their legs, waiting to watch the fireworks in the sky.
Mo Hua was also looking forward to it.
Although he drew this formation, he used a different drawing method, and he had not seen what it looked like after it was lit.
On the roof of Elder Yu's house, the three sat side by side.
Mo Hua and Bai Zisheng each held a roasted pork skewer in their left and right hands.
Bai Zixi held a snack box, which contained white, glutinous, bunny-shaped pastries.
The three were looking forward to it.
After a while, the fireworks burst.
First there was a clear sound, and the flames cut through the night sky.
Then the light of the five-color formation rushed up to the sky, gathered in the air, burst into five-color fireworks, and then scattered, and then burst again, one after another, passing down layer by layer, weaving a colorful sky, colorful and dazzling, covering the entire night sky.
It was as if it was the grand scene when the formation was opened, with light all over the sky.
However, in this grand scene, there was no murderous aura, only prosperity and tranquility.
Mo Hua and the other two also looked up at the sky.
The colorful fireworks in the sky were imprinted in their clear eyes and remained in their memories forever.
At this moment, all the cultivators in Tongxian City looked up and stared at the beautiful fireworks.
All the formation masters in Tongxian City were also shocked by the fireworks, and at the same time they couldn't help but mutter in their hearts:
"It's just a firework, why use such a complicated formation..."
...
The Tongxian Festival ended in a lively and cheerful atmosphere.
After the Tongxian Festival, Mr. Zhuang was leaving.
One morning, Mo Hua said goodbye to his parents outside the city.
Also seeing him off were Elder Yu, Mr. Feng, Master Chen, Chief Zhou, Zhang Lan, as well as Da Hu, Da Zhu, Da Ping and others...
There was a crowd of people outside the city.
Everyone looked at Mo Hua and felt reluctant to leave.
"You must respect your teacher and listen to Mr. Zhuang's words." Liu Ruhua urged, "Also, you must take good care of yourself..."
Mo Hua nodded solemnly, his eyes a little sour.
Mo Shan didn't say anything, just touched his head and looked at him gently.
Everyone also said goodbye and said some caring words.
After a while, the Bai family's carriage came.
Mo Hua got on the carriage, poked his little head out of the carriage, and waved goodbye to everyone.
Not only did he say goodbye to his parents, so many elders, friends, acquaintances and partners.
He also said goodbye to his hometown where he was born and raised.
After that, he embarked on a long journey to see the various forms of this world and explore the depths of the formation. He didn't know when he would be able to come back.
The carriage carried Mo Hua and went farther and farther.
Liu Ruhua stood there, looking at Mo Hua reluctantly, watching his back, disappearing at the end of the road, disappearing in the mountains, disappearing in the lingering clouds, until he could no longer be seen.
She then silently shed tears of parting.
…
Half a year later, at the foot of Dahei Mountain.
A huge demon-suppressing monument was completed.
This demon-suppressing monument was personally supervised by the old man of the An family. It was made of high-quality stone and could withstand wind and sun without being destroyed.
The monument was engraved with the names of the cultivators who made outstanding contributions in the battle to kill the great demon Feng Xi in Tongxian Town.
Killing the big monster is the greatest achievement of Tongxian City in hundreds of years, or even nearly a thousand years.
This stone tablet is also the largest monster-suppressing tablet in the past thousand years.
As long as Tongxian City exists, the monster-suppressing tablet will exist, and the name on the tablet will also exist.
At the top of the monster-suppressing tablet, in a prominent position, the name of Mr. An is engraved.
The handwriting is vigorous, vigorous and powerful, and it is clear at a glance from a distance.
Above Mr. An's name, there is an even more prominent name engraved:
"Mohua".
