The two looked at each other and sighed slightly at the same time.
An extremely ridiculous feeling arose in the hearts of both of them.
One was originally a high-ranking Jiubele from the Kingdom of Jin, and the other was just a little monk who traveled around the world.
There was no possibility of any intersection in the first place.
But a strange fate caused two young men with vastly different status, identity, and strength to meet in this mysterious underground tomb city.
To say that we feel sympathy for each other is of course nonsense, but to feel sympathy for each other is not too much.
Of course Dorgon could no longer hold up the arrogant figure of a nobleman of the Jin Kingdom and look down at Luoning like before.
And Luo Ning could not simply equate this person with the hated Manchu regent based on the name Dorgon.
Although, it was Dorgon who got him involved.
I can only complain in my heart: "Your money rat tail is so ugly. No matter how gorgeous you are dressed or how noble your status is, you look like an uncivilized savage."
If Dorgon knew what Luoning was saying, he would probably vomit three liters of blood.
"Play music!" Gu Zuoyou shouted.
Seven or eight masked monks appeared like ghosts, the silk and bamboo were melodious, and the suona was loud.
As soon as the music sounded, the entire underground tomb city suddenly felt strangely festive.
At this time, Luo Tianxia's groom's clothes were almost finished.
Several girls surrounded him, raising and lowering their hands, chattering.
"Okay, okay, all I need is the patch on my chest."
"The belt is a little crooked, let me untie it..."
"My uncle is so handsome that he doesn't need to apply makeup on his eyebrows, and he has a good figure, so he doesn't need to wear those high-soled boots..."
"Little hooves, you are seeking death. Where are you touching my uncle?"
"Bah! What maggots did you chew! Where did I touch? Don't talk nonsense..."
"Scared! Stop talking! You two Zuoyou are going to be angry."
Song Zuoyou was really angry, "What nonsense are you talking about! Watch your skin carefully!"
Several girls were laughing and not afraid. After they finished giving orders to the groom, they gathered the groom in front of the dressing mirror with a sense of accomplishment.
"Uncle, it's really like a jade tree facing the wind."
"My uncle Chen Ning's appearance is worthy of being an insult to the eldest lady."
Luo Ning looked at himself in a formal dress in the mirror and cursed secretly.
"Damn it! This is the second time!"
"Grandma!"
"When the day comes that I actually get married, I will never wear this outfit! It's so unlucky!"
He resisted the urge to throw away the red flower on his chest and turned to look at the round-faced woman, "You... scratched me."
"Oh..." Yuanman woman quickly let go of her arm, revealing a perfunctory and apologetic smile.
"Ahem..." Dorgon, the only distinguished guest, put down his wine glass and couldn't help coughing, which made his face turn red.
"Jiu Beile, wouldn't the wedding wine be delicious?" came a familiar voice with a hint of ridicule.
The groom and the only distinguished guest turned around and saw a man and woman wearing masks, Shi Shiran, coming in.
The masked man is a seventh-grade monk, but the masked woman is a fifth-grade master.
The masked man was the fifth-level master who had come here to capture Luo Ning and Dorgon, and who also signed a life-and-death contract with Dorgon.
However, after he signed the life-and-death contract with Dorgon, he seemed to have suffered a serious illness, and his cultivation level was temporarily reduced to the seventh level like Dorgon. He was not really a seventh-level monk.
"Pavilion Master Xiao, Hall Master Tang!" Song Zuoyou and others saw the two people coming in and saluted together.
The person who personally captured Dorgon and Luo Ning was Hall Master Xiao. The woman who came in with him was Hall Master Tang.
This is the first time that Tang Hall Master appears.
"Is it almost done? It's almost time to prepare for the ceremony." Hall Master Tang said.
She is wearing a magic mask, so her appearance and age cannot be clearly seen, but judging from her voice, she is not too old.
"Is he the groom?" Hall Master Tang suddenly looked at Luo Ning, "What's his name?"
The round-faced woman quickly said: "Reporting to Hall Master Tang, my name is Luo Ning."
"Luo Ning..." Hall Master Tang muttered these two words, walked to Luo Ning, and stared at Luo Ning's face from behind the mask with a pair of shining eyes.
Very close.
Luo Ning felt that her gaze was a little strange, and he felt very scared when she looked at him.
"Senior..." Luo Ning couldn't help but take a step back.
"Luo... Ning." Hall Master Tang nodded, "Cooperate well with the worship service, you know?"
"Be obedient and I'll make sure you're fine. Even if it's just a formality, you are still the honorable uncle. Do you understand?"
Luo Ning could only smile bitterly, "I understand."
Hall Master Tang finally retracted his gaze, turned to look at Dorgon, and said in a cold tone:
"Dorgon, your men and those Tubo nobles who are afraid of being implicated are now dealing with the natural ecstasy formation outside."
"But they are just doing useless work."
"You are also a fifth-grade monk, and as a prince of the Golden Kingdom, I believe your vision is not bad. You should know something about this place, right?"
Dorgon let out a long sigh and put down his wine glass, his face full of sadness.
But the bald forehead and rat-tail-like braids greatly diluted this melancholy, making it look a bit funny and weird.
"The location of the natural ecstasy array should be an earth spiritual vein. The natural ecstasy array is probably as high as the first level, and with the help of Feng Shui and earth energy, it can automatically fill in the gaps and recover continuously."
"It's truly...a wonder of heaven and earth."
"Such a large-scale natural enchantment formation will be difficult to break even if a hundred thousand troops join the battle. Unless there is a way to cut off the connection between the formation and the geomantic omen, turning the formation into sourceless water."
"This is so difficult."
He is right. Natural formations are often much more powerful than formations arranged by formation masters.
Dorgon continued: "Moreover, this natural enchantment formation seems to be constantly changing. Even if you are a real person in the first-level formation, it is extremely difficult to deduce the secret map of entering and exiting the formation."
"Those who trespass will lose their intelligence, become walking zombies, fall into the abyss of the earth, and become the nourishment of natural formations."
Hall Master Xiao sneered, "Jiu Beile is indeed a nobleman of the Jin Kingdom and has extraordinary knowledge. You are right. Even if they mobilize an army of 100,000, they can't do anything with this formation."
"There are only a few first-level Taoist practitioners in the entire Tubo Kingdom, let alone Xifan."
"The secret map of entering this underground tomb city is only in our hands."
"So, does Nine Belle know what to do?"
Dorgon nodded dejectedly, "I will send a message to Baiyintu and my sister-in-law (Princess Tubo), telling them not to waste their efforts on dealing with the formation."
"I have sent the soul message back to the Great Khan. There is only one thing I have to do next: wait."
"The Great Khan agrees, and I will live in exchange for the Six Dust Divine Ginseng."
"If the Khan does not agree to the exchange, I will die."
Although the Soul Thought Card is extremely expensive, there are still some for Dorgon, who is as valuable as Baylor of the Golden Kingdom.
"Dorgon, you are a smart man." Hall Master Tang said, "Huang Taiji will definitely agree. Although the Six Dust Divine Ginseng is important, it is not as important as the people of the Jin Kingdom."
"Huang Taiji is a great hero of the generation. He understands the choices better than you."
"Okay, you are the only outsider today, witnessing the wedding, and I won't embarrass you."
After saying this, he gave the order: "Miss, please come and pay your respects! Let's go!"
It turns out that the wedding venue is not here yet.
Hall Master Tang led people into Lu Pianpian's "boudoir". Lu Pianpian had already changed into the dress of the bride to be married.
She has a true red gown, bright red sleeves, a phoenix crown and a harem. Her chest is adorned with gold beads and dragons and phoenixes, and her back has a splendid pattern of mandarin ducks. Her embroidered shoes are adorned with bright moon beads.
His face was covered by a hijab, and only his bare hands, which looked like beautiful jade carvings, were exposed.
Just lying on the bed silently.
She looks very much like a corpse bride about to get married.
The head of the Tang Hall offered a "Corpse Dance Talisman", placed it on the bride's chest, and said while performing the talisman:
"Miss, please come to the Flower Bridge!"
Of course, Lu Pianpian's body was not a corpse, but her consciousness fell into a deep sleep and she could not move. She looked almost like a corpse.
However, Dorgon knew that the Six Dust Divine Ginseng must be used to save this young lady.
As soon as the Corpse Dance Talisman was put on, the bride immediately sat up.
There was no sign of stiffness in her body, but she stood up like a normal person and followed Hall Master Tang out.
A flower bridge has long been parked outside.
"Lu Pianpian", whose body was manipulated by the Corpse Dance Talisman, entered the sedan chair smoothly. Then she was carried away by four masked monks.
Everyone followed together.
There are only a dozen people in the entire team.
Soon, the wedding team arrived at a huge stone hall.
The stone palace was majestic and magnificent. Even Dorgon, who was born in the royal family and had a broad vision, was astonished.
Luo Ning felt horrified and had goosebumps all over her body.
What on earth is this place? How big is this underground tomb city?
In the huge stone hall, there are densely packed colorful stone dolls, all of which are male and female in pairs.
At first glance, it seems that there are many people in the hall, but in fact they are all puppets, and no one is alive.
Thousands of stone dolls, men and women in pairs, worshiped the two tall statues of gods to the north.
The expressions of the stone dolls are the same, showing the same piety and respect.
The difference is the facial features and appearance.
In front of the tall statue, there were nine large incense burners, but they had long since lost any incense.
Dozens of red lanterns were hung in the main hall, making them appear very few.
The entire hall was filled with an indescribable weirdness.
Is this weird giant palace the so-called wedding scene?
When they saw the two tall statues clearly, Luo Ning and Dorgon were startled.
It turns out that there are not two statues of gods, but one.
However, this statue has two heads and four arms.
One head is that of a man wearing a high crown, and the other head is that of a woman wearing a bun.
Not only is it a two-headed statue, but its body is a snake.
The huge snake body extended from deeper inside the giant hall, and I don't know where the tail leads, it seems to lead to the underground.
Luo Ning and Dorgon couldn't help but feel horrified when they saw this huge and weird snake-body statue with two heads and four arms.
They thought together in their hearts: "What kind of evil god is this?"
Even though Hall Master Tang and others have been here for more than a month and are used to the weirdness here, they still get hairy every time they come to this huge stone hall.
But there is no other way. The leader had previously warned that the wedding must be held here to worship the ancient gods of Yin and Yang.
They must follow what the leader says and will never discount it.
"This Ancient God of Yin and Yang is the high hall where we will worship at the wedding!" the host of the Tang Hall said in an astonishing voice.
Soon, the wedding started.
Luo Ning gritted his teeth and stood side by side with "Lu Pianpian".
"Bow down to heaven and earth!" Tangtang's lead singer said.
Luo Ning can only worship heaven and earth with the bride who is controlled by the Corpse Dance Talisman.
"Two thanks to Gaotang!"
Luo Ning and the bride bowed to the terrifying "high hall" again...
