The group's favorite master, the story of a cute baby who travels through the book and defies t

The next day was a hot day with direct sunlight. Although the trees above our heads shielded us from the scorching sun when we rode in the forest, the wind blowing in our faces was still hot.

Xia Zixuan and his five disciples rode on horseback, their destination being the Wen family in Louguan Town.

Originally, after the incident in Mengxin Secret Realm, he should have stayed in the sect to recuperate, but he didn't expect that incident to happen to the Yu family, which caused turmoil in the Wen family as well.

It just so happened that the headmaster's wife, that is, his master's wife, was from the Wen family. Although it was a branch, these aristocratic families had always been closely intertwined and connected, and they would prosper together and suffer together. Therefore, he had no choice but to let his disciple, on behalf of his master's wife, go and check it out in person.

Of course, there is another important reason, that is his junior sister Su Qiaoqiao, the daughter of the head of the sect and also a relative of the Wen family. This time she clamored to come along and take a look, so the task of taking care of her naturally fell on the shoulders of him, her senior brother.

The junior brothers and sisters in the Qi Refining Stage only have better physical strength than ordinary people, but they do not have the ability to regulate their body temperature. Therefore, when they arrived at the rest point, Xia Zixuan announced that they would stay here for a while.

As soon as he finished speaking, his fellow apprentices cheered, jumped off their horses, and sat down on the ground.

Su Qiaoqiao sat on a stone covered with a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead with another handkerchief. After drinking a few sips of the water handed to her by Xia Zixuan, she pouted and began her routine complaints.

"Brother, how long will it take to get there?"

"About two hours."

"It's so hot. I don't want to hurry any further. How about you take me there first on your sword?"

Xia Zixuan advised: "We are all brothers from the same sect, there is no reason for us to go our separate ways. If you are afraid of the heat, let's wait until the sun goes down a bit before continuing our journey."

Su Qiaoqiao muttered angrily, "It would be great if all the brothers and sisters who came here were in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Why are they all rookies in the Qi Refining Stage? Isn't this just a burden to us?"

Xia Zixuan was helpless and wanted to tell Su Qiaoqiao that he was still a rookie at the eighth level of Qi Refining, but due to her spoiled temper, he finally did not say a word to remind her.

"We went to the Wen family only to investigate, it's not a big deal, not to mention it involves Master's wife's family affairs, so we shouldn't make a big deal about it. This time we are only representing Master's wife, not the sect, so how can we bother other disciples at will?"

Su Qiaoqiao nodded reluctantly, remembering her mother's instructions before she left, and finally stopped complaining.

Everyone rested for a while, and just when they were about to take a nap, they suddenly heard the sound of suona and trumpet from a distance. Everyone perked up and looked towards the source of the sound, which was also the direction they came from.

Xia Zixuan stood up and stared at the back vigilantly. Soon, a group of more than a dozen people came celebrating from a distance.

Su Qiaoqiao then stood up and looked into the distance, covering her mouth in surprise: "Is this... a marriage?"

What appeared in front was a tall horse with a big red flower, and sitting on the horse was the groom in groom's clothes. However, the groom had a pointed face and a monkey-like appearance, and was rather ugly. Su Qiaoqiao took one look at him and looked away with disgust.

Behind the groom is the wedding sedan chair carried by four bearers in red. The bride should be in the sedan chair, and next to the sedan chair is a country girl holding a flower basket.

Following behind were four musicians dressed in red. Although the team was small, it was festive and lively.

Everyone in Taiyi Sect was interested in watching the fun, and even Xia Zixuan almost let down his guard, only letting his fellow disciples stand on the side of the road to avoid the wedding procession.

After a while, the two teams met. The groom reined in his horse, smiled and saluted to Xia Zixuan and others.

Xia Zixuan took the lead in clasping his fists in return. Su Qiaoqiao was too lazy to look at the ugly groom, but became curious about the bride in the sedan chair.

The dowry maid leaned close to the small window of the sedan chair and whispered a few words to the bride. Then she walked over with a smile on her face.

"My dear heroes, my young lady said that today is her big day, and she hopes that everyone can share in the joy. She is treating everyone to candy, come on, heroes, please don't be polite."

As she spoke, the maid took out candies wrapped in red candy wrappers from the flower basket and handed them to the six people.

Several people looked at the cheap candies in their hands and looked at Xia Zixuan inquiringly.

Xia Zixuan frowned slightly, not intending to eat such mundane food. But the maids and the groom in front of him were obviously waiting for them, and it would be too disheartening to refuse them on such a happy day.

To be on the safe side, he winked at the others, immediately peeled off the candy wrapper, put the red candy into his mouth, and swallowed it without chewing.

The other party was obviously ordinary people who were not afraid of threats. He planned to let it go if nothing happened. Even if there was a problem, Su Qiaoqiao and the others could get away smoothly with their cultivation.

After swallowing the candy, he pretended to chat with the maid for a while. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him, the disciples were relieved. When Xia Zixuan nodded, they happily ate the candy, still congratulating him.

At this time, a suona player reminded everyone not to miss the auspicious time. Everyone hurriedly said goodbye and the maid also hurried back to the sedan chair.

However, after taking a few steps, an accident suddenly happened!

The Taiyi Sect disciples watched helplessly as the groom fell off his horse, rolled on the ground for a few rounds, and then lay motionless on his back.

"what!!!"

The maid's piercing scream cut through the sounds of suona and trumpets. The next second the wedding procession became panicked. The sedan chair staggered and was half thrown to the ground. The bearers screamed in fear and huddled on the other side of the sedan chair away from the groom, peeking their heads out tremblingly.

Xia Zixuan had already rushed over when the maid screamed. By the time others reacted and followed him, he was already squatting beside the groom, examining his body.

Su Qiaoqiao stood behind Xia Zixuan and looked at the man lying on the ground with his eyes closed. She thought he was ugly and quickly looked away at Xia Zixuan who had a serious expression.

"Brother, what happened to him?"

"……died."

"died?"

Su Qiaoqiao couldn't believe it. How could he die when he was fine just now? But she believed that Xia Zixuan would not lie, and she became more and more suspicious of the man's cause of death.

Xia Zixuan's voice was not loud, but it was unusually clear amid the panic, so his words were heard by everyone present. Soon, the people in the wedding procession began to whisper.

"What number is this?"

"It must be the 7th one, right? This time he's the one that's gone the farthest. The 6 that came before him didn't even make it out of town."

"What a sin, what a sin. I thought it would be okay to find someone this ugly this time? No! It's no use."

Hearing the whispers of several people clearly, Xia Zixuan stood up from the ground.

Su Qiaoqiao asked hurriedly: "Brother, how did he die?"

Xia Zixuan shook his head gently: "I don't know the reason, there are no wounds on the body, and my initial examination did not find any obvious internal injuries."

His judgment seemed to confirm something to the sedan bearers, and the fear caused by the sudden death of the groom turned into a calm expression.

Su Qiaoqiao was puzzled, so she asked them directly. The sedan bearers did not hide anything and told them the reason in detail. After all, according to what they said, this matter was a well-known strange thing in the surrounding area.

"The one in the sedan chair is the eldest daughter of the Bai family. The fortune teller said that she was born to bring bad luck to her husband. No man who wants to marry her will have a good ending."
