save the bachelors

Chapter 4976 4979 [The Black Hand of Fate]

Afterwards, they finished their meal and sat under the eaves, drinking tea and appreciating the moon.

Xiang Nan specially used the water in the jade bottle of Guanyin Bodhisattva to cook the spring buds picked from the Bodhi tree where Buddha attained enlightenment, to entertain Xiaolongnu.

The taste of this tea is naturally fragrant and fragrant, and after taking it, it is also very good for the body and spiritual practice. It can be said that even the Tathagata Buddha cannot afford such luxury.

"Brother Zhu, the tea you brew is really delicious." After tasting it, Xiaolongnu thought it was very delicious.

"If you like it, drink more." Xiang Nan said with a smile, and poured Xiaolongnu a new bowl.

"Brother Zhu, you treat me so well." Xiao Longnu said with emotion.

Nine years ago, Brother Zhu saved her life. When they met again nine years later, Brother Zhu was still so kind to her. It was worth it for her to miss him day and night for the past nine years.

"I don't know why, but as soon as I saw you, I wanted to be nice to you." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

In fact, the reason why he did this was mainly to help Zhu Bajie make up for his debt to Xiao Longnu.

The Little Dragon Girl in "The Legend of the White Snake" is very pitiful.

She did so many things for Zhu Bajie wholeheartedly, but Zhu Bajie only thought about Sister Chang'e and almost ignored Xiaolongnu's efforts, causing this girl to be heartbroken so many times.

Later, the two finally got together, but Xiaolongnu had no time and did not spend a few happy days with Zhu Bajie.

So Xiang Nan felt that she was very pitiful and was willing to do his best to compensate Xiao Longnu.

Hearing him say this, Xiaolongnu couldn't help but feel even more moved.

……

The next day, Xiang Nan and Xiaolongnu set off together, heading for the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea.

The main reason why Xiang Nan wanted to go to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea was to avoid the disasters in the mortal world.

Today is the wedding day of Zhu Fengchun and Miao Miaomiao, and also the day of Zhu Fengchun's death. And tonight, Miao Miaomiao will also be possessed by a cat demon.

At that time, she will spread the "poison of love", causing everyone in Changzhou Prefecture to be infected with the poison and turn into cat demons.

If Xiang Nan and Xiao Longnu didn't leave, they would also be implicated.

Of course, Xiang Nan is not afraid of the cat demon.

For him, dealing with the cat demon was just a piece of cake, but he didn't want to be involved in the cause and effect.

He wants to control his own destiny and does not want to be controlled by fate.

Unexpectedly, as soon as we set out on the road, we saw heavy rain pouring down.

"Oh no, Brother Zhu, it's raining. Let's take shelter." Xiao Longnu said when she saw this.

"Okay, let's sit in the pavilion." Xiang Nan pointed to a pavilion on the mountain path.

Xiao Longnu nodded, and they both sat down.

Soon after I sat down, I heard melodious and cheerful music coming from afar.

……

"Hey, what's that sound, Brother Zhu?" Xiaolongnu asked curiously.

"It's the sound of drums and music for the wedding." Xiang Nan explained, then was startled, "It can't be such a coincidence? How can we encounter it here?"

"What is 'sending the bride', Brother Zhu?" Xiao Longnu asked curiously.

"It's about marriage between a man and a woman." Xiang Nan explained, "If a man and a woman in the mortal world want to get married, they will first ask a matchmaker to propose marriage. If they are interested, they will ask a yin and yang master to match their horoscopes.

If the horoscopes match, the couple will give the betrothal gifts and ask for the wedding date. On the wedding day, the bride will ride in a big red sedan chair, accompanied by the matchmaker and relatives, to the groom's house to pay respects and get married.

"Really?! Very interesting." Xiao Long Nu clapped her hands and laughed, "I have never seen a wedding before. Brother Zhu, let's not go back to the Dragon Palace yet. Why don't we stay and watch?"

"There will be opportunities in the future." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.

To be honest, he really didn't want to get involved in this cause and effect.

Because he always suspected that in the world of "Spring Splendor Pig Bajie", there was a pair of black hands called "fate" that had been teasing Pig Bajie. How could Pig Bajie swallow the Wuji Golden Pill by chance? Wherever Pig Bajie wandered, he would meet Hou Yi's reincarnation; as soon as Pig Bajie went to heaven, he would meet the fairy Chang'e; as soon as Pig Bajie arrived at Huaguo Mountain, he would meet Sun Wukong...

Once can be considered a coincidence, but if there are too many coincidences, there is something fishy going on.

Just like the fairy Chang'e, who lives in Guanghan Palace. There is a ban from the Jade Emperor at the entrance of Guanghan Palace, so she can't come out at all, and other gods can't enter either.

Taibai Jinxing practiced in the heaven for thirty-nine thousand years, and we only saw her back when she just ascended to the fairyland.

But Zhu Bajie was able to see her as soon as he arrived in heaven. It had to be said that it was a strange coincidence, so Xiang Nan was unwilling to be at the mercy of "fate".

Even if "fate" really wants to manipulate him, he will not obey it obediently. At least he will bargain.

……

"Just take a look, just take a look, Brother Zhu~" Xiao Longnu didn't know Xiang Nan's worry, so she pleaded with him.

"Okay, just take a look." Seeing this, Xiang Nan had no choice but to nod.

I saw that the wedding procession had arrived, and it was indeed Miao Miaomiao's group.

"Miss, the rain is too heavy and the road is slippery. If the sedan chair bearer falls, it will be bad for you." Miao Mansion's housekeeper said to Miao Miaomiao, "Let's rest in this pavilion for a while and set off again when the rain stops."

"Well, it's really troublesome." Miao Miaomiao said angrily.

The steward felt as if he had been pardoned, and quickly ordered people to carry the sedan chair into the pavilion.

"Excuse me, both of you. Please lend me your light." The butler apologized to Xiang Nan and Xiao Longnu.

Xiang Nan and Xiao Longnu stepped aside and let the wedding party enter the pavilion.

But the pavilion is just a small pavilion, and can only accommodate about ten people at most.

But there were more than twenty people in the wedding procession, and the sedan chair alone took up a lot of space. Therefore, after the sedan chair was carried in, everyone was left squeezing together.

Even though Xiang Nan and Xiao Longnu tried their best to avoid the crowd, it still seemed very crowded.

"Oh, finally I can take a break."

"It's raining so hard. I almost fell down just now~"

"My clothes are all soaked. What bad luck that I have to send my bride off today~"

Everyone complained as they took shelter from the rain.

"Butler, the pavilion is too crowded, kick all the servants out." Miao Miaomiao shouted again.

With so many people crowded together, there's no air circulation.

"Miss, this..." The butler felt a little reluctant for a moment.

It’s easy to get sick if you continue to get wet in such heavy rain.

"You dare not listen to me? Hurry up and kick them all out. I'm almost suffocating!" Miao Miaomiao shouted loudly.

Hearing her say this, the housekeeper had no choice but to ask the servants to stay outside the pavilion.

When the servants heard this, they all looked miserable.

Because people all know the truth that "it is better to walk ten miles in the sun than get wet with a drop of rain" and "if you don't change your clothes after getting caught in the rain, you will have to lie on the bed for three days."

If they were to go outside in the rain now, they might catch a cold, which could be fatal.

"Miss, please, don't let us get wet in the rain~"

"Yes, Miss, you will get sick if you get caught in the rain~"

"Miss, please let us go~"

The servants begged repeatedly.

"What are you talking about? Hurry up and get out of here. Stay away from me." Miao Miaomiao felt that the noise made her even more uncomfortable. "If you are going to get sick, stay away from me. Don't pass the disease on to me~"

The servants had no choice but to leave the pavilion, leaving only Xiang Nan, Xiao Longnu, Miao Miaomiao and the housekeeper in the pavilion.
