Chapter 228 The Flower Spirit Was Sucked
After some investigation in the dark, Lan Chuya discovered that the source of excitement for the Devil Baby and the Sky Soul Orb came from the square in front of the Peony Pavilion.
The square has turned into a sea of peonies. Pots of peonies are neatly placed on the square. Various colors are competing for beauty, which is fascinating and overwhelming.
Lan Chuya secretly told Yun Ziqing the result of the investigation.
After hearing this, Yun Ziqing said, "It seems that there is something wrong with those flowers. Chuya, since we have encountered it, let's figure it out before leaving. What do you think?"
"it is good."
Hua Qingwen didn't really want to stay with You Rongcheng, feeling depressed and bored, "Uncle Lan, senior brother, two fellow Taoists, I want to go out and have a look."
Lan Chuya felt that something was wrong with Hua Qingwen, but he didn't say much, "Then be careful."
Hua Qingwen nodded, "You don't have to wait for me to eat at noon, I will come to you later."
"it is good."
After that, Hua Qingwen left. You Rongcheng was worried that something might happen to the crowd, so he chased him out. Before leaving, he also said that he didn't have to wait for lunch at noon.
Seeing the backs of the two hurriedly going away, Lan Chuya understood in a flash, no wonder he felt that they were always weird.
Xue Yufeng smiled and said, "Two friends, it's almost noon, what do you want to eat?"
"Ziqing, what do you want to eat?"
Yun Ziqing was using his spiritual sense to explore the sea of flowers in the square, and said flatly, "You decide, I can do it."
Xue Yujun interjected, "Brother Chuya, our Peony City has a lot of special spiritual food made with peony flowers as its specialty. I promise not to let you down. Do you want to try it?"
"Okay, I just learned a lot." Lan Chuya agreed without hesitation, but he was worried that he didn't know what to say.
"Okay, I'll tell them to prepare right away." Jun Xue Yu excitedly ran downstairs to make arrangements.
"My younger brother has a carefree personality, and he doesn't think things through his head. Please forgive me, two fellow Taoists." Xue Yufeng apologized slightly. He felt the coercion from these two people that shocked him, especially Yun Ziqing. Can not be offended.
Yun Ziqing nodded and did not speak. He has always talked less in front of outsiders. In short, he is as cold as he wants, but no one has ever hated this kind of coldness. , no matter what kind of personality, it is right and should be.
"True temperament, we like this kind of personality, otherwise we wouldn't come up with it." Lan Chuya was absolutely telling the truth. If he didn't like him, he wouldn't be in the same room with him. what?
Xue Yufeng nodded with a smile, understood what he meant, and couldn't help being more sincere in his smile.
While the few people were talking, the first round of flower fighting in the square ended.
There are two rows of judges sitting in the front of the square. There are 21 people in the front row. They are all gray-haired and energetic old men and monks. They have a high reputation in Peony City. The row behind is also 21 people. They are ordinary people, but their reputation is also very high. , but slightly worse than monks, so they sat in the back.
The front of the judges are all covered with peonies, almost no gaps.
Here, Lan Chuya dragged Yun Ziqing to stand in front of the window. Xue Yufeng, as the master, also accompanied him. He stood on the other side of Lan Chuya. I can't help but want to wrap my clothes.
Lan Chuya pointed, "Ziqing, what kind of peony is that yellow one?"
Yun Ziqing looked at it, "That's Yaohuang. This flower is light yellow when it first blooms, and golden yellow when it is in full bloom. The flowers are higher than the leaves, neatly blooming, radiant and fragrant, and are known as the "King of Flowers."
The look of admiration appeared in Lan Chuya's eyes again, "The very peculiar one, with purple-red and pink-white flowers on the same plant, or the purple-red and pink-white peony on the same flower, what is it called? name?"
"That's Er Qiao. There are always two colors on the flowers, very gorgeous."
"Ziqing, look to the left of the judges. There is a row of peonies there. There are a lot of peonies blooming on a pot, at least hundreds of them. Could it be grafting?"
It was the first time Yun Ziqing saw this kind of peony, and he didn't know much about it. He was about to tell Lan Chuya that he didn't know, but Xue Yufeng seemed to see it, and took the question, "Let me give this to Fellow Daoist Lan. Explain."
Lan Chuya and Yun Ziqing turned their attention to him together.
Xue Yufeng secretly thought, he finally came in handy, Yun Ziqing looked at it as cold as frost, but his knowledge was profound, "The name of this flower is Luoyang red, bright purple red, it is a variety of abundant flowers, one plant can bloom hundreds of flowers The flower, because it is covered with wreaths and has luxuriant flowers and leaves, has been dubbed the "New Flower Queen".
Lan Chuya stared at Luoyang Hong and said with a smile, "It deserves the title of King of Flowers."
Yun Ziqing agreed, "It really deserves it."
"Yu Feng, what kind of species does your family grow?" Lan Chuya turned to look at Xue Yufeng and asked curiously.
"The ones grown in my family haven't been taken out yet, and I'll take them out at the finale." Xue Yufeng's face showed a look of pride, which was arrogance born of confidence and self-confidence.
"I heard someone on the street say that this time the peonies are pink and purple, and there are no such two colors in the square." Lan Chuya said mysteriously, "Did your family grow new varieties?"
"There is a pot." There is nothing to hide, Xue Yufeng admitted directly.
"Whose family belongs to the other pot?"
"It's the Wu family."
Peony City is controlled by three major families. The first family is the Xue family, the second family is the Feng family, and the third family is the Wu family. There is a variety, but the Feng family doesn't have one, so the power probably needs to be reshuffled.
At this time, Lan Chuya felt that the magic baby and the Sky Soul Orb were even more excited, and frowned slightly. Could it be that they both like peonies?
Yun Ziqing sent a secret voice transmission to Lan Chuya, "Chuya, there is a magic energy that seems to be there, do you feel it?"
"I felt it before, but it was too faint. I thought it was coming from the devil baby, so I didn't care." Lan Chuya couldn't help but look serious.
"No, I can confirm that it came from the square, and it's still moving."
Lan Chuya's eyes wandered over the peony flower, "It seems that there are monsters in that peony flower."
"Chuya, let's go to the square to explore."
"it is good."
The two were saying goodbye to Xue Yufeng, when Xue Yujun opened the door and walked in, followed by a long line of waiters, carrying exquisite spiritual food, after entering, put them on the table one by one, and set them up A table is full.
Xue Yujun warmly greeted, "Brother Chuya, Brother Ziqing, Second Brother, lunch is ready."
Lan Chuya and Yun Ziqing glanced at each other, it was not good to say goodbye at this time, so they sat down.
Lan Chuya looked at the dishes on the table one by one, and praised, "Yu Jun, your special spiritual food in Peony City is full of beauty, and it seems to be for viewing."
"People who ate our Peony City spiritual food for the first time said so. It's because of habit. People in the city are very pursuing beauty, and the basic necessities of life are very delicate." Xue Yujun proudly said.
"It's a good habit, no wonder it's called Peony City."
Xue Yujun took the initiative to introduce the special spiritual food on the table, "Brother Chuya, this is roasted soft-shelled turtle with Danpi, the imperial concubine is out of the bath, the golden dragon is lying in the flower pond, the country is beautiful and heavenly, and the jade is presented with a Gejin... They are all made of spirit beasts. The meat is made with peony petals, flower seeds, and pollen, you must try each of them, it is very delicious."
"Yes, two fellow Taoists have come from afar. You must try it. I guarantee that this trip will be worthwhile." Xue Yufeng was very worried that his younger brother, who is usually inconspicuous, would not be entertained well, but he didn't expect that there would be nothing wrong with the words. , it is surprising.
"Definitely taste it." Lan Chuya handed the chopsticks to Yun Ziqing, and served him a bowl of soup from the Golden Dragon Crouching Flower Pond, "Ziqing, try this first."
"Okay." Yun Ziqing eats very elegantly and calmly. In Lan Chuya's eyes, he is a serious dish, and he tastes better than all other dishes.
Xue Yujun and Xue Yufeng both looked at the two of them quietly, obviously four of them had dinner, obviously they were the masters, but it made people feel that they were superfluous.
……
In the afternoon, the oiran selection continued.
Lan Chuya and Yun Ziqing also came to the edge of the square, Xue Yujun and Xue Yufeng followed under the pretext that they were the masters and should do their best to be the landlords.
Where Yun Ziqing passed by, passers-by would always look sideways, their gazes were full of amazement, Lan Chuya's possessiveness was revealed at this time, no matter how many people were there, he would always hold Yun Ziqing's hand, Everyone declares that this person is his, and no one is allowed to think about it
In fact, Yun Ziqing really wanted to tell him that apart from him, no one can get so close to him. If you get within three meters of him, your body will immediately become cold. If you get within one meter of him, your body will start to freeze. If you touch him , his body froze instantly, didn't he realize that those people were also giving way to them while looking at him?
Lan Chuya found out, but this did not prevent him from swearing in his sovereignty, and taking advantage of this advantage, they successfully stood in the inner circle of the square, near the edge of the flower, and the people within three meters of them automatically backed away. Let's get rid of Mr. Xue Yu and Xue Yufeng. They are monks. They can use their spiritual energy to generate heat to maintain their body temperature. They are not afraid of the cold. Seeing that Yun Ziqing is not easy to mess with, the other monks don't want to get close.
Xue Yujun and Xue Yufeng looked at Lan Chuya with admiration. Sure enough, to fall in love with an extraordinary person, one must be extraordinary himself.
Yun Ziqing glanced across the sea of peony flowers, "Chuya, the devilish energy is stronger."
"I can feel it." Lan Chuya cast the Five Senses Clarity Technique, and suddenly, he found that the flower spirits of all the flowers were gathering in one direction.
The flower spirit is a kind of aura that is naturally generated between the heaven and the earth when the flower blooms, and keeps the flower from withering during the flowering period. If there is no flower spirit, the flower will wither abnormally, just like the human essence. , people will die.
Lan Chuya followed the direction and saw that it was a pot of "Blue Dragon Lying Ink Pond" with dark purple multi-layered petals. When it was in full bloom, it looked like a green dragon lying in the center of the ink pool, hence the name. "Womochi" is blacker than the petals next to it. On the branches, there is a layer of black mist, like a snake with teeth and claws.
"Ziqing, I saw it." Lan Chuya passed the picture to Yun Ziqing.
"The other party should have used some kind of illusion. I checked it just now, but I didn't find it."
Lan Chuya felt something was wrong, "Wait, Ziqing, your cultivation base is higher than mine, why didn't you see it, but I did?"
"Maybe it has something to do with you being demonized." Yun Ziqing clearly saw Lan Chuya being demonized when Lan Chuya rescued him.
"Ziqing, I have never dared to ask you, I have been demonized, do you despise me?" Lan Chuya was very disturbed, almost holding his breath waiting for Yun Ziqing's answer.
Yun Ziqing asked instead, "If I have been demonized, would you despise me?"
Lan Chuya said without hesitation, "Of course not, no matter what you are, I like you."
"Me too."
Lan Chuya held Yun Ziqing's hand and clenched it tighter.
"Ziqing, the monster is attached to that pot of peonies and sucks the flower spirits of the surrounding peonies." Since Yun Ziqing didn't see the monster, he naturally didn't see the flower spirits being sucked.
Yun Ziqing whispered, "Without the flower spirit, the flowers will wither, but I haven't seen the flowers wither."
