Chapter 305: The Garden Full of Osmanthus Fragrance
Chapter 305: The Garden Full of Osmanthus Fragrance
In the City God’s Palace.
Xia Li secretly looked at the man in front of him. He was about sixty or seventy years old, wearing a green and gold official robe. His skin was smooth and rosy, his face was kind, and his long beard covered his chest.
If we didn't know the other party's deeds, how could we tell that he was a wanderer when he was young?
Just when Xia Li was lost in thought, he saw Murong Chenghuang stroking his beard and smiling kindly, "I appreciate your kindness, Madam. Please ask the messenger to tell your Majesty that I will definitely go there when the time comes!"
Hearing this, Xia Li cupped his hands and said, "That couldn't be better. Xia Li will definitely bring it to you as the City God said!"
-
In a blink of an eye, it was the fourth day of October.
On this day, all you could see were sedan chairs of all sizes flying in the sky, carried by burly and strong men.
Some who are not particular about details come on auspicious clouds.
There are streaks of auspicious colors and bursts of rosy clouds. Wherever you go, the sky is clear and the air is fresh.
However, the mortals on earth were unable to see the wonders in the sky. They could only sigh that today's weather was exceptionally good, as if even the autumn chill had been dispelled a little.
Sitting in one of the sedan chairs was the City God of Yingping Prefecture - Murong Zhuo.
He gently lifted a corner of the curtain and looked around carefully, and was shocked by what he saw.
Wow! Without exception, all of them are gods!
When the sedan chair reached a river, a cloud of auspicious clouds rose from the river. On top of the cloud, an old man in brown stood with his hands behind his back. Behind him were several water monsters.
Here comes another river god!
Not long after, when the sedan chair was driving over a mountain basin, a black light rose from the temple below. Like everyone else, it was heading towards Yudu Mountain.
Another famous land!
Murong Zhuo identified it secretly.
After a while, the ghost warriors carrying the sedan chair stopped at the same time, and one of them said respectfully: "Sir, we are here."
Murong Zhuo then got off the sedan chair, looked around, and then smiled and nodded to the surrounding gods.
He found that he didn't recognize the other people, and thought they must be gods from Qingzhou!
But why did Her Majesty invite only me, a god from a distant state?
While Murong Zhuo was thinking, he heard the maid who called herself Xia Li, who he had met before, said enthusiastically: "My lords, you have come from afar, please come in quickly!"
Besides several disciples who were also there to welcome guests, the most attractive thing was the tall door of light next to her.
Thinking of the rumors about that lady, he suddenly understood that this must be the legendary secret place of Yudu Mountain!
Under the guidance of Xia Li and others, gods big and small were welcomed into the secret realm.
Once you step into it, you will enter a new world.
This was the first time that Murong Zhuo came to such a secret realm. It was completely different from the secret realm of incense he was in. It was not as solemn and majestic as his place, but rather more ethereal and fairy-like.
Especially the huge beam of light he took a step forward, reaching from the sky to the earth, with the spirit of the weapon floating on it, which was truly eye-opening.
The surrounding buildings and the square are all dotted with red orchids and green grass, and bursts of floral fragrance can be smelled from the air.
In the entire secret realm, the human cultivators and the demon cultivators live in harmony, without distinction between you and me. Occasionally, some leaf monsters, paper cranes, paper figures and other artificial objects that come and go and fly around make this place look even more wonderful.
Under the leadership of Sun Yue and other envoys from the Department of Foreign Affairs, gods big and small such as Murong Zhuo were led into the spiritual plant garden.
Walking through the long corridor, people were surrounded by all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and rare species of magical trees, which made everyone stare in amazement.
When passing through an invisible barrier, the fragrance of osmanthus from the entire garden suddenly filled the air, making one feel relaxed and happy, as if one's cultivation level had improved a little.
All you see are the golden shadows of flowers and the vigorous osmanthus trees that are so lush that you can't see the end of them!
The ground is covered with a layer of golden fallen flowers, which linger in the air with fragrance.
Under each osmanthus tree, there is a stone table and stone bench, on which are fragrant tea and snacks for people to enjoy.
"Great! What a great place!"
"The flowers are so fragrant, and you are all there to enjoy them. Wonderful! Wonderful!"
Soon, gods who knew each other greeted each other, and those who were not familiar with each other also came forward to chat for a few words, and they quickly became familiar with each other.
Murong Zhuo took a rough look and found that although there were not many gods who came, only twenty or thirty, the city gods, mountain gods, land gods, river gods and water gods were all included!
Apart from him, there are three other city gods like him!
Among them, the river gods and land gods that I had seen before were all at the celestial stage! And they looked quite familiar.
This lady is really as powerful as the legend says!
He couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, the old man with a kind and wealthy face, wearing brown clothes, who should be the river god, and the young man with a black robe, tall stature, rough and tough face, who should be the land god, both walked towards him.
The old river god had a smile on his face, and he immediately bowed to him and said, "Hahaha, my name is Shen Tuo, the god of the Mo River. This is my good friend, the land god at the foot of Yudu Mountain, named Luo Cheng'an. I am so polite!"
Seeing this, Murong Zhuo returned the gift and introduced himself.
Unexpectedly, when they heard that he came from a distant state, they were not surprised at all, but laughed and talked.
Just as he was wondering, he saw the old river god suddenly look behind him and said, "Hey, someone else is coming."
He immediately turned around and saw the person coming, but he was stunned for a moment.
And that person also looked at him at this moment, and was suddenly stunned.
There was a hustle and bustle around him, but he could hear nothing.
Why is he here? !
The two of them thought the same thing in their hearts.
"Brother Murong?"
Hearing the voice of the old river god, Murong Zhuo came back to his senses in an instant, turned his head away in embarrassment, and did not dare to look the person opposite him in the eye.
"Ah?" He said hesitantly, but his heart was filled with shock and fear.
"Brother Murong, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing Shentuo's question, Murong Zhuo quickly shook his head, "Nothing... nothing..."
But he didn't notice the complicated look in the eyes of the person behind him.
Shentuo and Luo Cheng'an secretly looked at the two men's expressions but did not point it out.
Just when Murong Zhuo was feeling embarrassed, a loud shout immediately saved him.
"The Queen is here!"
All the gods looked over there immediately. Murong Zhuo also looked back, but found that the man was gone, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But what followed was a deep sense of loss and intense guilt.
Under the gazes of all the gods present, big and small, a woman wearing a wide-sleeved precious dress with a landscape pattern and with a noble and serene temperament, slowly came over, surrounded by a group of cultivators and demon cultivators.
"Your Majesty." All the gods bowed and said.
The lady also bowed her head in greeting.
Murong Zhuo raised his head and looked over there. He wondered if it was his illusion, but the landscape pattern on the empress’s skirt seemed to be moving?
At this moment, the lady smiled and said loudly:
"It is a great honor for Yudushan that you have come from afar to attend this flower viewing party. You don't have to be so formal at today's meeting, just be casual!"
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he seemed to feel that the lady seemed to have glanced at him just now?
There seemed to be an elusive look in his eyes.
