Chapter 312 The Flower Fragrance of the Dragon Emperor Tree
The maids of the Dragon Mansion served tea to all the ladies. It was Dragon Yin Flower, with an intoxicating fragrance and spiritual power. The tea soup showed a light blue color, which was very beautiful.
On the main seat sat not only Long Yuyang’s mother, but also a white-haired male elder with unfathomable cultivation. He sat there calmly and calmly. I don’t know his identity. He might be Dear elders, come and choose a wife for the younger generation.
Mrs. Long took the opportunity to observe the etiquette of the ladies. When she arrived at Tang Yue's place, she found that she had taken off her veil. Her appearance was indeed amazing, but the way she drank tea was too unlike any lady.
Tang Yue saw that Mrs. Long's expression turned slightly stiff when she saw her, probably because she disliked that her tea drinking movements were not as elegant as other ladies.
But she just drank tea as usual. If she were an ordinary monk, she wouldn't care about this. Only the nobles in the world of immortality would deliberately cultivate the habit of sipping tea in their daughters. The men in the clan I won't drink like this.
Mrs. Long said softly: "Ladies, please show off your talents."
"Wait a minute, Mrs. Long, I have something to say." Tang Yue stood up and saluted with his hands in hand.
Mrs. Long was unhappy, how could she interrupt herself? As expected, Kunwu City is all about the nouveau riche, they have no background, and the children they raise are rude.
“What’s the matter with Miss Tang?”
"Mrs. Long, I just learned that the banquet you held today is to choose a wife. I didn't want to disturb you, but I heard that you were interested in buying Kunwu ore, so I came back to wait. Now you want to choose a wife first, can you let me be there? Waiting in the side hall? It is very inappropriate and disrespectful for me to watch the ladies' performance here. Madam, please let me leave first and let the ladies start the performance."
Mrs. Long. I was angry in my heart. The Kunwu sword and stone incident was just an excuse. Now that Tang Yue was at the banquet, he was still rejecting her kindness. Did he really look down on the Long family?
She is just the daughter of the city lord, and Kunwu City is not as long-standing and profound as Huayue City. All the city lords and daughters of Huayue City are sitting here, why should she look down on Long? Home?
The housekeeper and maid on the side saw that Mrs. Long looked bad and hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Miss Tang, it's okay to sit here for a while. I believe you ladies don't mind showing off your talents in front of you. If you are alone, It’s so boring to wait in the wing.”
Even if you ladies are concerned, you don’t dare to show it at this time, and you have to pretend to be generous.
Tang Yue said: "You can't say that. Today's banquet is to choose a daughter-in-law for Mrs. Long and a wife for Mr. Long. It doesn't matter if you ladies from aristocratic families show it to Mrs. Long, an elder like you. Show it to me. This is not good for outsiders. It is not a fighting art at this time, and I am not worthy of being entertained by you ladies, so it is better to hide in the side room."
The more than 20 women in the garden thought, It's true, they all have to perform, and Tang Yue is not here to participate in the selection of a wife, so she is just a spectator here. Aren't they, noble ladies from aristocratic families, just like tricksters for fun? Suddenly everyone looked bad.
Nangong Yan thought to herself: It turns out that Miss Tang is really not here to choose a wife. When she saw her in the mansion that day, Shangqing Gongji Chongguang was very protective of her, with such a good-looking person by her side. , how can you fall in love with Mr. Long?
Mrs. Long looked indifferent, "Then let the housekeeper take you down and wait aside."
Since Miss Tang has mentioned this, let her sit down again. On the contrary, Long Mansion is rude and disrespects all the ladies.
Tang Yue left the daughter-in-law selection banquet as she wished. It was impossible for Mrs. Long to just let her join the election in such a muddle.
On the way to the wing, Tang Yue smelled a very familiar scent of flowers. He couldn't remember where he had smelled it before, but it was definitely not the one he smelled the last time he came here.
Sitting in the side room drinking tea and waiting, she kept thinking about this matter in her mind. She might as well go find the flowers and said to the little maid waiting next to her: "I'm a little bored here, can you Just take me around the house and go to places where guests can go.”
She would easily arouse suspicion if she wandered around alone, so just go near the scent.
The little maid complained in her heart: The stewardess just said that she would be bored here alone, so she still came, and now she feels bored again. There is really a lot to do.
But the little maid did not dare to be disrespectful at all and replied: "Okay, I will take you for a walk in the garden. Our house has an ornamental courtyard specially built for guests."
Tang Yue I just walked closer to the place where the fragrance was. After walking, I arrived at the back garden that was open for the last banquet. You can't go further in. That's where the Dragon King tree is planted. Outsiders can't see it without the Dragon family members. of this tree.
But the fragrance clearly came from that yard.
Tang Yue looked at that place and was hesitating whether to let the little maid go and sneak in to take a look. Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind: "Want to see the Dragon King Tree?"
< br>She was shocked that she didn't notice anyone approaching at all, so this person must be a senior expert with unfathomable cultivation.
Looking back, he saw an imposing and handsome male cultivator. He seemed to be a young man in his twenties. However, his cultivation level was too high. Even if he did not exert pressure, Tang Yue felt a sense of fear. , His age must not be as young as he looks.
Tang Yue immediately bowed and saluted, "I don't know, senior, I'm rude here, so please forgive me." The little maid also looked at the man's face, with confusion in her eyes, as if she wasn't quite sure. Familiar, he became panicked after a moment, and quickly bowed and saluted, "Join the ancestor of the Long family."
Ancestor of the Long family? Tang Yue thought about it in his mind. The man who could be called the ancestor of the Long family seemed to be the Mahayana monk Long Hanfei who was one step away from ascending to heaven.
She heard from Master Gongsun Feng that six hundred years ago, this man was also the head of the Long Family who was extremely talented and famous in the Liuzhou world. The current head of the Long Family and Young Master Long are all his direct descendants. descendants.
Tang Yue saluted again, "This junior is Tang Yue from Wuji Mountain. See the ancestor of the Long family."
The ancestor of the Long family waved his hand and told the two little girls not to salute. After looking at Tang Yue, he said to her: "The Dragon King tree is blooming, and the fragrance is astounding. It makes people feel relaxed and happy. It's normal that you want to see it. I will take you there."
Then he waved his hand, The three of them were in the courtyard of the Dragon King Tree. This was the first time Tang Yue had seen the strength of the Mahayana monks. They were silent. If they came to take her life, she might not even know how she died.
The Dragon King Tree has rough skin like dragon scales, but its flowers are very cute, pink and small, growing on the branches. If the petals were not jade-like in texture, they would look like peach blossoms and cherry blossoms. .
The ancestor of the Long family looked up and said, "This flower blooms year after year, but it always bears no fruit and is of no use."
Tang Yue remembered what Senior Brother Ji had said to him. The fruit of the Dragon King Tree was very important to whether the Dragon family could obtain the inheritance of their blood.
In addition to awakening the bloodline inheritance on their own, the Dragon family could use this fruit to help future generations gain inheritance and magical powers. However, after the tree no longer bears fruit, the Dragon family members can only awaken on their own, so they can There are far fewer awakened tribesmen.
If there were still this fruit, Long Yuyang wouldn't have to be a tool to carry on the family lineage. He could just eat a few.
Tang Yue cheered and said: "I believe that one day, this fruit will still bear fruit."
After hearing her words, Long Hanfei turned to look at her and chuckled. : "I feel the same way. It's actually because I did something wrong back then, so the tree can't bear fruit. So I've been thinking of ways over the years, and recently I finally have hope of correcting the mistake and curing it."
Tang Yue felt that the tone of the ancestor of the Long family was strange and a little confused, so he guessed that he might have found a solution and was very happy, so he spoke like this.
"Congratulations, ancestor."
The ancestor of the Long family said again: "Your spiritual roots are so strange. They are actually the fifth grade spiritual roots of heaven, which are stronger than those of my descendants. "
He is a Mahayana monk. Of course he can see the monk's qualifications at a glance without using spiritual power to detect. Tang Yue hurriedly said modestly: "It's just a coincidence, not as profound as the Long family's blessings."
“How profound is the blessing? It’s very profound, but it’s a pity that I made the wrong choice.”
The ancestor of the Long family looked up at the crown of the Dragon King Tree again and sighed softly, as if he was regretting the past.
Tang Yue suddenly remembered that the smell she smelled in the Dharma City that was deprived of her spiritual roots was the floral fragrance of the Dragon King Tree.
The last time she came to Long Mansion, the Dragon King Tree did not bloom, so she didn't know what the fragrance was. This time she realized that the secret room was related to the Long Family, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"I think Mrs. Long's banquet is coming to an end. She has something to discuss with me, so she is going back now. I hope the ancestor will not be surprised."
The ancestor of the Long family waved his hand and signaled She can go out on her own.
On the way back, Tang Yue became more and more frightened as she thought about it. If the person who deprived her of her spiritual roots came from the Dragon Mansion, then she would have entered the Longtan Tiger's Den now.
Action comes before thinking, she sent a letter to Senior Brother Ji first.
Peak Master Gongsun didn’t know much about her. In comparison, Senior Brother Ji knew better that she would not make such a trip out of doubt.
