My God Raising Game

Chapter 32 Bowing to Heaven and Earth, Forming a Marriage!
As Tang Weimin unveiled the gold-threaded silk, a stand made of Hetian jade and shaped like a jade ruyi was revealed.

The glow of the tallow candle illuminated the jade, making its color even more warm and luxurious.

Even an ordinary person who doesn't know much about jade can tell at a glance that this stand must be expensive and not something that ordinary rich people can afford.

But now, this precious Hetian jade ruyi is just a stand, on which a gold hairpin is placed.

The hairpin is one foot long. If you look closely, you can see a poem called "Peach Blossom" engraved on it in tiny characters. It comes from the Book of Songs and uses peach blossoms as a metaphor for a beautiful woman, to celebrate the bride's wedding.

The hairpin is shaped like a phoenix spreading its wings, each feather lifelike, reflecting the lights of countless homes. Below it hangs nine strings of pearls, all of which are unique Hepu pearls.

Regardless of how exquisite the design of this hairpin is, it must have been made by a top goldsmith and took years of painstaking work to create. The dozens of Hepu pearls alone are priceless, enough to ensure that an ordinary family of four can live comfortably for ten lifetimes.

The girls fell in love with the golden hairpin at first glance.

In ancient times, this was a headdress that only the legitimate daughters of noble families and powerful clans were entitled to wear when they got married.

Jiang Shan looked at the gold hairpin, then turned to look at Tang Weimin with a puzzled expression.

What do you mean?
Should Lu Jiuling marry this golden hairpin?

If a girl were to be chosen as the bride, she should have changed clothes with Lu Jiuling, but Tang Weimin didn't mention it.

Tang Weimin looked at the gold hairpin with lingering fear. He had almost lost his life in the ancient tomb in Xijing in order to obtain this forbidden item. It was only thanks to the 'professor's' timely intervention that he was able to succeed.

However, these risks must be taken.

Because this golden hairpin is the most important part of this wedding!

"Lu Jiuling, cheer up and get ready for the wedding ceremony!"

After Tang Weimin finished speaking, he took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and then recited the mantra aloud.

"dimension:"

"2100, the year of Gengshen, the third month of late spring, an auspicious day for the full moon."

"The groom, Lu Jiuling, and the bride, Luo Yuzhen, with the offerings of sacrificial animals, wine, incense, candles, flowers, and fruits, sincerely announce to the Heavenly Emperor, the Earth God, and the ancestors of the Lu and Luo families."

曰：
When heaven and earth are in harmony, all things flourish; when human relationships begin, marriage is of utmost importance.

Now there is Lu Jiuling, son of the Lu family, who is handsome and refined; and Luo Yuzhen, daughter of the Luo family, who is intelligent, virtuous, and possesses both beauty and virtue.

The two are bound by fate across three lifetimes and bound by love for one lifetime.

The red thread has long been tied, and the alliance of red leaves can be entrusted; the jade is planted in Lantian, and the friendship between Qin and Jin is already established.

Following ancient customs, we solemnly pledge our love.

On this auspicious day and time, we solemnly celebrate our wedding.

Tang Weimin recited the poem with intonation, then respectfully bowed to the memorial tablet on the offering table before continuing to chant aloud.

"The bride and groom."

"First bow to Heaven!"

"A match made in heaven, witnessed by the sun and moon."

Tang Weimin stared intently at Lu Jiuling. The promotion ceremony had reached a critical moment and could not be missed. If this kid didn't go through the wedding ceremony, he would skin him alive.

In Class 287 of the third year of high school, all the students present were silent, glancing at Lu Jiuling and then at the gold hairpin on the Hetian jade shelf.

They found it both absurd and bizarre that Tang Weimin would actually have Lu Jiuling hold a wedding with a golden hairpin.

Is your brain sick?
But then I think about all those urban legends circulating online...

This must be some kind of strange ritual.

690 is probably going to die after getting married.

Lu Jiuling bowed down.

He noticed that Tang Weimin was staring intently at him. The other party was definitely focused and on guard against everything, so it was not an excellent opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

hold on!
"Bowing twice!"

"The earth bestows auspicious energy, ensuring a bountiful harvest!"

Lu Jiuling bows again!
"I bow three times to my ancestors!"

"May our ancestral virtues endure and our blessings last forever!"

Since neither set of parents is present, there is no need to kneel before the elders; instead, the ancestors are used as substitutes.

Lu Jiuling knew that the wedding ceremony was the most important part of a wedding, and now that this step was about to end, Lu Jiuling's nerves were on edge, constantly alert to any unexpected situations so that she could respond in time.

"Couple greetings!"

"May the phoenix and the dragon be of one heart and one mind!"

It's going to work! It's going to work!
Tang Weimin stared intently at Lu Jiuling. Once Lu Jiuling and Jin Buyao finished their mutual bows, and Tang Weimin uttered a few auspicious words, praying for the blessings of Heaven and Earth and the protection of their ancestors, that the newlyweds would grow old together in happiness, the promotion ceremony would be complete.

You can ignite the fire of your soul, step into the ranks of the gods, and become a 'matchmaker'!
Tang Lei and the baby-faced Li Jiayao's hearts tightened instantly, looking at Lu Jiuling with worried expressions. Xu Shaowei had been harboring some resentment and dissatisfaction because Lu Jiuling had rejected her confession, but now, seeing that Lu Jiuling was probably in trouble, she still looked anxious.

How can we help him?

Jiang Shan racked her brains, but she was completely clueless about these mysterious and bizarre events.

Lu Jiuling pursed his lips tightly. He knew he had to make a decision. Otherwise, once the ceremony was completed and Tang Weimin was promoted, his combat power would be even stronger. But just as Lu Jiuling was about to take a gamble, the golden hairpin on the wedding tray held by Xiao Xitong moved first.

It shot out like a flying sword thrown by an immortal, aiming for Lu Jiuling's brow.

call out!
Lu Jiuling, who had been keeping an eye on the golden hairpin, quickly raised his hand and grabbed it the moment it suddenly started moving.

The next moment!
Noisy!
The golden hairpin pierced through Lu Jiuling's palm.

Tick ​​tock!Tick ​​tock!
Blood gushed out, flowing down Lu Jiuling's palm to his arm, and finally dripping onto the bluestone floor.

"what!"

"Fuck!"

"hiss!"

It wasn't until this moment that Xu Shaowei and the baby-faced girl reacted, staring in horror at the golden hairpin that Lu Jiuling had grabbed, and screamed in alarm.

If Lu Jiuling had been even a fraction slower, his head would already be pierced by the golden hairpin, and he would be dead on the spot. "Damn it!"

Zhang Shuai cursed under his breath, frustrated that he hadn't seen Lu Jiuling die.

"This guy reacts incredibly fast!"

Xu Shuo gasped, knowing he was certain to die if he were caught in such a sudden ambush.

no way,
too fast!
Can't escape!

There's no way to avoid it!

Wow! Wow!
The strings of Hepu beads hanging from the hairpin jingled and tinkled, making a pleasant sound, like a mermaid humming a love song.

"what?"

Tang Weimin was taken aback.

What's happening here?
He wasn't surprised that Lu Jiuling blocked Jin Buyao's brow piercing, but rather confused as to why Jin Buyao was moving.

The professor explained each step of the promotion ceremony in detail, and there was no scene where the golden hairpin would suddenly shoot the groom during the couple's bowing ceremony.

Is the professor hiding something from me?
Will not!
My failure to get promoted doesn't benefit the professor either, so why did this happen?

Could it be that something went wrong at some point during the ceremony?
Tang Weimin immediately recalled, and the more he thought about it, the more his brows furrowed, forming a mountain-like shape.

All correct.
No problem!

Tang Weimin looked at Lu Jiuling, then at the gold hairpin still stuck in his hand, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, inwardly praising him.

Lu Jiuling,
Well done!

If the groom dies, the rites of passage will fail. Although the process has gone wrong, there is still a chance to remedy the situation.

"Lu Jiuling, put the gold hairpin back and continue the couple's bowing ceremony!"

Tang Weimin gave the order.

"..."

Lu Jiuling originally thought that the gold hairpin's thrust was part of the ceremony, but he noticed Tang Weimin's bewildered and panicked expression, which clearly surprised him as well.

Does that mean the ceremony failed?
Can I start my counterattack?
Lu Jiuling gripped the golden hairpin tightly with all five fingers!

The intense pain of his palm being pierced did not cause him panic or tension; instead, he became even calmer than usual.

Just as Lu Jiuling was about to pounce on Tang Weimin, the little boy carrying the wedding tray suddenly took a few steps and ran towards an eight-immortal table.

The hearts of Li Yinuo and the others sitting at this table jumped into their throats, and they were so nervous that they dared not breathe.

Little Xitong stood in front of Ning Qian, blinking her big eyes and looking up at her.

What should have been a cute little expression looked eerie and terrifying because of the thick layer of white makeup on her face.

Gum!

Ke Xinyi swallowed hard and looked at Li Yinuo and Ning Qian beside her.

Ning Qian covered her head with her hands and lay face down on the octagonal table, acting like a coward. Li Yinuo trembled, looked away, and desperately prayed that Xiao Xitong would not come after her.

The other students sitting at the same table were also extremely nervous.

After waiting for about six or seven seconds, Xiao Xitong saw that Ning Qian was still frozen in her seat. It blinked hard, glanced down at the wedding tray it was holding, and then continued to stare at Ning Qian.

"What...what is it going to do?"

Ning Qian burst into tears, asking if someone could come and chase it away.

No one can answer.

Because nobody knows the answer.

Ning Qian was completely terrified, her mind a complete mess, unable to think straight. But when she looked around and her gaze fell on Lu Jiuling, her eyes lit up.

Correct,
I can ask 690, before he entered this courtyard, his performance was amazing!
"land……"

Ning Qian had barely opened her mouth, and before she could even call out Lu Jiuling's name, Xiao Xitong had already lost patience. Its small face darkened, and it reached for its waist with its left hand, pulled out a sewing needle, and disdainfully stabbed Ning Qian in the needle.

"what!"

Ning Qian was startled and instinctively dodged to the side, but it was too late.

Through her hoodie, Ning Qian felt a sharp pain in her arm, like being stung by a scorpion, followed by swelling and numbness.

"It's over!"

Jiang Shan closed her eyes, unable to bear watching any longer.

After Ning Qian's arm was pricked, her whole body swelled up as if being inflated by a high-pressure air pump.

'A human skin balloon!'

Xu Shaowei shuddered, immediately recalling the horrifying scene she had just witnessed outside the gate.

"I...I don't want to die!"

Ning Qian cried out, "Help me!"

Ning Qian was like a hot air balloon, expanding very quickly, growing into a large ball in just a few breaths.

Sizzle! Sizzle!
Ning Qian's jeans and hoodie were ripped by her swollen body, and she herself floated into the sky, but was blocked by the ceiling.

The students looked up, their faces filled with horror as they stared at Ning Qian.

This usually quiet and reserved female student was now wearing clothes that had burst open, making her look like a big, chubby white balloon.

"Quickly, find a way to save her!"

Zhou Yuanhang had a crush on Ning Qian and subconsciously called out to her.

Before the words had even faded, he watched as Ning Qian exploded with a bang.
