Chapter 562: Bridge of Heaven and Earth
"Girl, have you made up your mind? Are you really going to do this?" Somewhere in Tianyun Sect, Zuo Hezai stared at Zuo Wanqiu with pain.
"I've made up my mind, so let's do this!" Zuo Wanqiu was a little absent-minded, but her eyes were very firm.
Zuo Muxiu was struggling on the side, opened his mouth, and hesitated to speak.
Zuo Wanqiu glanced at Zuo Muxiu's expression and cast a reassuring look at him. "Brother, you have been taking care of Wanqiu since she was a child. This time, Wanqiu should repay you."
"Sacrificing me alone can help four people, it's worth it!"
Zuo Muxiu was stunned, and didn't understand which four people Zuo Wanqiu was talking about.
However, Zuo Wanqiu didn't give Zuo Muxiu time to think. After she finished speaking, she was already accompanied by Zuo Hezai and ready to leave.
Before leaving, Zuo Wanqiu turned around and said to Zuo Muxiu: "Brother, take good care of Daddy for Wanqiu!"
After that, she turned around and left without looking back.
Zuo Hezai glanced at Zuo Muxiu, sighed deeply, and left with Zuo Wanqiu.
Zuo Muxiu stared blankly at the two of them leaving, tears falling silently.
In the end, he didn't say anything to keep them.
"Sister! I'm sorry!"
...
The next morning.
Even though it was still early, the whole Tianyun Sect was filled with a festive mood.
In the square in front of a hall in Tianyun Sect, thousands of tables and matching cushions had been set up in rows.
In the middle of the square, there was an empty area, and a long wooden bridge was temporarily built, almost running through the entire bluestone square, dividing the thousands of tables into two.
At this time, two figures, one tall and one short, walked slowly into the bluestone square.
The two were Zhaixing and the armored man, Adi.
Seeing only a dozen disciples of Tianyun Sect busy at various counters, Zhaixing muttered: "Brother, we seem to be here too early!"
"Yes!" Only Adi answered Zhaixing in a low voice.
"If I had known this, I might as well sleep a little longer in my residence!"
"Forget it, it doesn't matter where you sleep! Right, brother!"
"Yes!"
As soon as the voice fell, Zhaixing walked to a counter casually and actually fell asleep.
And the armored man Adi, like a god, quietly waited beside him.
...
When it was almost noon, Hua Tian came to Xue Wanyun and Duan Qingzhi's courtyard and took the two to participate in the couple ceremony.
Along the way, Xue Wanyun didn't say a word to Duan Qing, and his face was cold.
Led by Hua Tianzhi, the two came all the way to the bluestone square and sat down in front of a long table near the main hall.
When the two arrived, almost half of the thousands of tables on the bluestone square were still empty.
The people sitting in front of each desk were dressed differently, some in Taoist robes, some in casual clothes, and obviously from different forces.
The most eye-catching one was undoubtedly the armored man A-di standing tall in front of a desk at the end of the bluestone square.
He was at least seven feet tall, and he didn't sit down, so he stood out from the crowd in the entire bluestone square.
Duan Qing noticed the armored man A-di early on, and even saw Zhaixing lying beside him, sleeping soundly.
Seeing these two people, Duan Qing secretly thought that there was trouble.
Zhaixing was the last disciple of the Taihuang Sect's leader, behaved erratically, and coveted Xue Wanyun's beauty. Fortunately, he was sleeping at this time and didn't notice Xue Wanyun.
Otherwise, with his character, he really couldn't guarantee that he would do something out of the ordinary.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing glanced at Xue Wanyun, who was frosty beside him, and sighed deeply.
Xue Wanyun has been like this since this morning.
He wanted to explain, but Xue Wanyun didn't give him a chance.
Oh, forget it! After the couple ceremony, Senior Sister Xue will calm down, and then explain it in detail to Senior Sister!
In this way, although the two sat at the same long table, no one took the initiative to speak.
Shortly after the two arrived, Duan Qing found that people from the Zuo family had also arrived.
Under the guidance of a disciple of the Tianyun Sect, they sat at a long table in the middle of the bluestone square opposite the wooden bridge.
There were three people from the Zuo family, Zuo Hezai and Zuo Muxiu, and a woman in yellow clothes with a veil on her face.
The woman was covered with a veil, and her cultivation was hidden. Duan Qing could not know her identity, but felt that her figure was somewhat similar to Zuo Wanqiu.
However, although her figure was similar, Duan Qing had a feeling that she did not seem to be Zuo Wanqiu.
He and Zuo Wanqiu had been together for more than a day or two, and he still had this knowledge.
It was really strange. How could Zuo Wanqiu, who always loved to join in the fun, not attend such an occasion?
Or did he not want to see Zuo Muxiu's tragedy?
Or was there a woman with a higher status than Zuo Wanqiu among the Zuo family's visitors this time, who came to replace Zuo Wanqiu?
For a moment, Duan Qing felt confused and could not make sense of it.
At this time, Zuo Hezai, who was diagonally opposite Duan Qing, seemed to have discovered Duan Qing on the other side of the wooden bridge. He looked at Duan Qing from a distance across the wooden bridge and gave Duan Qing a warm smile.
Zuo Muxiu, who was beside him, looked dejected and did not seem to have discovered Duan Qing.
Seeing this, Duan Qing also smiled at him and nodded gently in return.
Retracting his gaze from Zuo Hezai, Duan Qing looked at the long wooden bridge in the middle of the bluestone square.
This wooden bridge was about dozens of feet long, almost dividing the entire bluestone square into two.
Although Duan Qing had never personally participated in any pair-making ceremony, he knew very well what this wooden bridge was after experiencing the memories of Senior Yuan Wuwu.
This bridge is called the Bridge of Heaven and Earth, and is used by cultivators to form a Taoist couple.
The world of immortal cultivation is different from the secular world. For ordinary mortals to get married, they need to have a matchmaker and three bows.
For cultivators to form a Taoist couple, they only need to walk hand in hand across the Bridge of Heaven and Earth, with heaven and earth as witnesses, and they can become a Taoist couple.
In comparison, it is much simpler.
For cultivators, the Bridge of Heaven and Earth can be built at will.
And today's Tianyun Sect's ceremony of forming a couple is mainly to watch the people who form a couple walk hand in hand across the Bridge of Heaven and Earth, and witness it with heaven and earth.
After that, it is time for the banquet.
In fact, whether it is witnessing the people who form a couple walking across the Bridge of Heaven and Earth or the banquet, Duan Qing is not very interested.
After all, today's ceremony of forming a couple is destined to be a tragedy.
Judging from Zuo Wanqiu's performance last night and Zuo Muxiu's depressed expression at this time, the contact between the Zuo family and Qingyunzi is probably fruitless.
Huang Shi's fate cannot be changed.
Just as Duan Qing was thinking about Zuo Muxiu and Huang Shi, Zhaixing, who was at the end of the bluestone square, had already woken up.
"Ah! I slept so comfortably!" Zhaixing yawned.
"Hey, so many people are here, is it time to start, brother?"
"Yes!" Adi replied dully.
Zhaixing stood up and looked around, with a look of disdain on his face. "Tsk, I thought Tianyun Sect would invite someone, but it turns out they are all low-class guys!"
The people around Zhaixing were all angry when they heard his arrogant words.
