Green scales

The bright moon was in the sky, the hall of all monsters was brightly lit, and there was the sound of silk and bamboo.The lights lit up the night sky, almost as bright as the moon.

Under Situ Ling's firm request, Yao Jue had no choice but to hang red silk on the top and bottom of the Wan Yao Hall, reflecting the red lanterns, making it even more festive.

Situ Ling leaned contentedly on the throne in the middle, and specially arranged two secondary seats today, Yao Jue and Qing Yu sat on both sides.There is a long table under the seat, on which various dishes are placed, and the spirit fruit spirit wine used is all top grade, it is not easy to bring it to entertain guests on weekdays, but it is the first time to use it here.

Qing Yu looked at the group of happy little demons expressionlessly, and couldn't help but said to Situ Ling: "Do you have to be so exaggerated? This red silk lantern, I thought it was the empress getting married."

Yao Jue also had a look of dismay.

Situ Ling was very happy. He picked an orange and sent it to his mouth. His two long legs were shaking leisurely. He was wearing a black and gold royal robe with fluff around the cuffs. The gown matches very well, and I thought it was specially chosen.

"On the day my king and Yao Yao got married, it wasn't just the red silk lanterns that were hung, but the trees in the entire demon world had to be wrapped with red silk, and every little demon wrote a congratulatory message, and this king had to check them out one by one. "

Yao Jue couldn't stand listening anymore, and directly took a piece of ice cream to stop the endless mouth.

All the monster men in the hall toasted and drank, the women were coaxed and danced while laughing, and even the bold ones embraced their lovers and kissed them in full view, without any restraint in the usual way.

Qing Yu doesn't like this noisy environment, but the name of this banquet is to clean up the dust for him, and Situ Ling and Yao Jue are still there, so he can't leave early, so he can only frown and stare at the night sky in the distance In a daze, try to let go of yourself.

Suddenly, Qing Yu's eyes trembled slightly, and she saw a tall figure walking slowly from outside the hall.

Xia Xinglan changed into white clothes, her face was like a crown of jade, and she had an outstanding temperament.At this moment, he was so blessed to look at Qing Yu on the throne, under the light of the lamp, his light brown pupils became more and more gentle.

Not only Qing Yu, after Xia Xinglan arrived, the hall fell silent for an instant, and all the monsters looked at the man who was walking slowly from the door in unison.

Situ Ling happily stroked his chin, and was about to watch Xia Xinglan's good show, but suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and Yao Jue coughed lightly.

Situ Ling hurriedly raised his wine glass, and said in a loud voice: "Today, everyone enjoys drinking and eating meat, and tomorrow we will have to give full play to our spirits."

All the monsters responded loudly with giggles, and the atmosphere in the arena became lively again.From the beginning to the end, Xia Xinglan's eyes never left the blue figure on the throne, but he didn't step forward, just stood quietly by the door, with half of his body hidden in the night, like a loyal guard, coming and going as soon as he was called .

Qing Yu glanced at the person at the door indifferently, and didn't say anything, but looked away from the side, as if she deliberately didn't look at him.

Xia Xinglan suddenly laughed, a faint smile.In the past, Qing Yu would also get petty when he said something wrong, deliberately pretended not to see him, and put him aside, but at night when she slept, she would still hug the pillow and crawl into his arms.

Qing Yu seems to have remained unchanged.

Xia Xinglan couldn't help being a little distracted, recalling the little things she had with Qing Yu before, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of pain in her heart.

The laughter in the hall continued, and the roof was almost blown off. Xia Xinglan was only in a daze for a moment, and when she turned her head again, there was no trace of Qing Yu on the throne.

Xia Xinglan froze all of a sudden, hurriedly walked into the hall, couldn't help turning her head to look around, but suddenly saw a trace of the king's robe beside a small vermilion door hidden in the shadows on the side of the hall.

For some reason, Xia Xinglan breathed a sigh of relief.Qingyu Xu felt that the hall was too noisy, so she went to the long corridor alone.

The person she cared about was right in front of her eyes, but Xia Xinglan hesitated to move forward, her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, and she could only stay in place like a piece of wood.All around the goblins came and went, laughing and laughing, the candles in the hall flickered, and the light curtains swayed slightly.But all the hustle and bustle seemed to be untainted by that thin figure.

Just when Xia Xinglan was holding back, a handsome young man in white clothes was holding a jug, and ran towards Qing Yu from the hall like a gust of wind, bringing a slight scent of fragrance when he passed by Xia Xinglan's side.

flower demon?Xia Xinglan narrowed his eyes slightly. He thought that the young man would be driven back by Qing Yu, but he never turned back after waiting for a long time. When Xia Xinglan turned his head to peek, he saw the young man sitting in front of Qing Yu with a blushing expression on his face. His eyes sparkled, he kept pouring wine for Qing Yu while holding the white jade jug.

Qing Yu didn't show any discomfort, instead she drank cup after cup with her head raised.

The bright moonlight fell on the two of them, creating a soft halo, which was very eye-catching.

Xia Xinglan suddenly felt that he was not well, and when his head got hot, he strode forward and followed him out.

As soon as they stood still, Qing Yu and the young man looked over together, the young man showed curiosity, Qing Yu glanced at him indifferently, and then continued to drink.

Xia Xinglan was a little embarrassed for a moment, but seeing Qing Yu's delicate face under the moonlight, she couldn't move away.It can only continue to stick in place like a log.

Qing Yu didn't say anything, but the young man seemed very curious about Xia Xinglan, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at him. When Qing Yu finished drinking and handed over the glass, the young man hurriedly turned around and continued to pour the wine.

The two of them didn't have any conversation during the action, so it seemed that Xia Xinglan was thinking too much.

"Do you want to drink?" The young man peeked at it for a while, but couldn't help asking.

Xia Xinglan returned from Shanruliu: "Yes."

The boy showed a smile when he saw this, and when he waved his cuffs, a few peach petals floated out, and the petals swirled in the air to fit together into a wine glass.

Xia Xinglan understood, and reached out to grab the wine glass. When her fingertips touched the wall of the glass, the petals turned into light spots and dissipated, blending into the night with the evening wind.

The boy poured another glass of wine for Xia Xinglan.The jug is only the size of a palm, but it seems that there is endless wine in it.

Xia Xinglan took a sip. The aroma of the wine overflowed, but it wasn't spicy. On the contrary, it had a faint floral fragrance, and the taste was also sweet.But it seems that some kind of elixir has been added to it, which makes people feel light after drinking it, as if the turbidity in the body has been removed.

As long as the young man saw his expression, he would smile knowingly. "This wine tastes good, right? I tried to add some Moonshine Grass, which is just right for Qing Jun to cleanse himself."

"You have a heart." Qing Yu said lightly.

"It's my honor to share Qing Jun's worries. I have nothing else to sell, and I can only make wine." The young man touched the bridge of his nose shyly.

"Does this wine have a name?" Xia Xinglan asked.

"Not yet, the wine just came out of the altar today, I specially brought it for Qing Jun to taste, His Majesty said that Qing Jun should give it a name." The young man smiled.

"I won't take it." Qing Yu said.

Just at this time, a crescent moon in the sky hung like a hook on the treetops.

Late at night.

"Call it Xinyue. It just so happens that tonight is the first day of the new year, and it is the new moon in the sky. Qingjun's first return to the demon world is also a new start." Xia Xinglan raised his head, looked at the moon slightly covered by thin clouds, and spoke with a smile .

The green and golden pupils were like streamers under the moonlight, and he just glanced lightly at Xia Xinglan, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

"What do you think Qingjun wants?" Xia Xinglan asked with a smile.

Qing Yu stood up and handed the wine glass back to the young man, saying: "As you wish."

The young man was overjoyed when he got his name, he held the jug and saluted Qing Yu hastily, then went back to the main hall, presumably to drink it for others.

Only he and Qing Yu were left in the corridor.

"I..." Before Xia Xinglan finished speaking, Qing Yu turned around and walked forward, "If you can win the leader, I will call you into the palace, don't think about other crooked thoughts, Yao Jue can make an exception for you, I will It doesn't."

Qing Yu rubbed her forehead, her face looked tired, she turned around and disappeared.

Xia Xinglan had no choice but to laugh at herself, rubbing the cool porcelain cup in her palm with her fingertips, and turned back to the main hall.

I don't know when all the monsters in the hall dispersed, and now only the table was full of mess, the cups were overturned, and occasionally a few little monsters were drunk and leaned here and there, and they were all left by their companions.

When Xia Xinglan entered, he happened to be on the wrong side of Situ Ling. Situ Ling took off his royal robe and only wore a slim martial robe. He was tall and tall with broad shoulders and narrow waist.He held Yao Jue with a blushing complexion in his arms, and the royal robe covered him.

Xia Xinglan bowed and saluted, and Situ Ling nodded to him very generously, then continued to stride away with Yao Jue in his arms.

Xia Xinglan put the wine glass in his hand on the table and went back to his small courtyard.

Tomorrow is the ceremony of worshiping the moon, he needs to recharge his energy.

Jianzong, dining room.

Lin Yin was carrying a bowl of freshly cooked snow clam soup, and was about to send it to the suzerain.

She is a female disciple who has just come to Jianzong, but because of lack of wisdom, it is difficult for her to be a disciple, so she can only do some chores every day in exchange for some sword manuals.

There are many such disciples in Jianzong. She is a newcomer, so it is reasonable for others to push some chores.

The suzerain's health has been deteriorating recently, and the nourishing soup that was supposed to be once a day had to be delivered again in the middle of the night in recent days.No one wanted their dreams to be disturbed, so they all handed over the job to Lin Yin.

Lin Yin accepted it with a smile on his face, but when he turned around, he rolled his eyes out of the sky.While cursing the group of people secretly, he quickened his pace, and had to send the snow clam soup to the suzerain as soon as possible.

Today, there were no disciples on duty outside the door of the suzerain, Lin Yin suppressed a trace of doubt in his heart, stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Sovereign master."

There was no response at the door.

Lin Yin was a little confused, and shouted several times, but there was no answer.

She didn't want to stand here for several hours in the middle of the night, Lin Yin stretched out her hand to push the door impatiently, there was a glimmer of light between the two doors, it was not locked, but it seemed to be blocked by something.

It just so happened that a group of night patrolling disciples passed by, and Lin Yin hurriedly stepped forward to ask for help, but the group of disciples went to shout again after hearing the words, but there was still no answer.

Everyone's heart trembled suddenly, they looked at each other in blank dismay, showing a terrified look, and broke into the door regardless of 21.

"what--!!"

A scream pierced the night sky, startling the night birds that lived in the mountains and forests, shaking off their feathers and flying to the sky.

Sect Master Jianzong's eyes were wide open, and his anger had been exhausted for a long time.
