Chapter 611: Overnight
When sitting for a long time, the lights fell, and the Beidou slant was rising; when children were forced to sleep, they kept watching each other at night.
The wizards' New Year's Eve ceremony is similar to those of the Bai Dings.
The so-called "Datong" refers to igniting the fire of the year. The whole family sits together and stays up all night until dawn. The whole process is almost exactly the same as Bai Ding's ancient rituals; while "Xiaoyi" is because the fire of the wizards can really eliminate evil and avoid plague, and the beast of the year is also a real magic monster.
Of course, in modern times, especially in places like Bouji Island where wizards gather, the so-called New Year beast is just a kind of magical creature with strange behavior. Many wizards even go to the wilderness or lakes and seas to wait in the hope of taking a look at this already rare, legendary magical creature.
Zheng Qing celebrated the New Year in the Wizard World for the first time, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious.
After coming to the wizard world, if he had any childhood wishes, then in addition to the little mermaid that could be kept in the bathtub, he would probably be the "New Year Beast".
He has always been curious about what this legendary monster looks like. Although there are images of them in the school library, as the saying goes, "it is always shallow when you get it on paper." After all, there is a piece of paper that makes people feel unsatisfied.
But given that he had just been attacked by a crow, his sequelae were not clear, and he crushed the cups and plates, crushed the tables and chairs one night, causing accidents, so when he was staying at night, the young public-paid student was very wise to not make any requests for exceeding the rules, and stayed at the table honestly, just poked the dozing Poseidon from time to time, so that she could open her eyes and not let her beautiful big tail be scorched by the flames of lights.
The entire Qingqiu Mansion will be brightly lit all night tonight.
However, the Sui Fire lit in other rooms are Gublai Fairy Fire, hanging between the walls and the aisles. Only in the hall where everyone gathers, the Sui Fire is a small oil lamp.
Although the lamp is small, the flames are very bright. The green fireworks as big as beans are burning quietly on the oil lamp. The blooming light fills the entire room, releasing one touch of magical brilliance with the power of blessing.
The maids in the mansion didn't need to work tonight. They wore loose clothes and gathered together in groups of three or two, sat cross-legged on the sofa and read in a low voice, or played checkers in front of a small coffee table, and even those who were tempted to get back to their true form, swaying their big tails and chasing and playing between the tables and chairs, having a lot of fun.
Zheng Qing sat among a group of foxes, and was filled with eagles. All kinds of furry tails were everywhere, which kept surging his desire in his heart.
"Tail pulling is worse than hair pulling."
Su Shijun easily noticed the boy's eyes and warned in advance: "If someone scratched your face because of this, don't blame me for not reminding you."
scare!
A light green fox jumped to Zheng Qing's feet very actively when he heard the witch's warning. His body was soft and fur exploded, as if it was a blue ball. At the same time, it made a terrifying sound. Bosedong, who was already glaring, suddenly became energetic after hearing this sound. He flicked his tail and went to play with the green fox.
Zheng Qing had no reason to determine that the little green fox was Su Ya.
"How could it be..." He smiled dryly, watching the two little foxes chasing and playing, pulling the blanket covered with their legs, as if this could slightly conceal the idea of pulling the fox's tail in his mind.
Pick.
A stack of red envelopes was thrown into the boy's arms by Su Shijun.
"If you feel bored, you can prepare New Year's money for everyone first." The witch didn't know what she thought of, and a happy expression appeared on her face: "According to the convention, everyone in the mansion has New Year's money, including Dongdong."
I don't know if it's an illusion.
After Su Shijun said the three words "New Year's money", Zheng Qing felt that the foxes in the room glanced at him quietly, their eyes shining. Coupled with the bean-sized green flame in the middle of the coffee table, he had a small cold war for no reason.
"Is New Year's money...?"
Zheng Qing was caught off guard by this word - before today, in his inherent impression, he was still the one who collected New Year's money - but immediately, he thought of his "identity" in Qingqiu Mansion. After awakening, a strange feeling arose in his heart, as if this extremely ordinary thing represented the end of a certain stage in his life.
"How much do you give?" The boy had no experience and could only whisper to consult the witch who gave him a red envelope.
Su Shijun was reading "Serraino out of context" with relish. Since she learned that Maodou was Poseidon's personal servant, she has become very interested in the Tindaross Hound and searched for many books related to it. Hearing this, she tilted her head and looked at the boy, blinking very innocently.
"Me? What do I give?"
She did not hide the surprise on her face at all, and she had a hint of gloating in her tone: "You are the male owner of the mansion, okay? By the way, I also have a share of the New Year's money!"
Zheng Qing twitched slightly.
He had reason to suspect that the witch had targeted his small treasury. At the beginning of next month, on March 1, Zheng Qing's first batch of five blood talisman bullets for the Sanbu Sword were to be delivered. Before that, the wealthy Bureau of Investigation had already transferred all the funds into the boy's account in Sam Chase, and he was not afraid that he would be slapped.
A few days ago, when I went to Sanyou Bookstore to find someone, Zheng Qing quietly sneaked to Sam Chase’s branch in Beta Town, took out all the first batch of 750 jade coins and put them in his gray cloth bag.
There is no other reason, it is that the heavy weight makes people feel at ease.
Just like now.
Although he knew that Su Shijun wanted to tease him, the jade coins clattering in the gray cloth bag gave the boy great confidence to ignore this little move.
"Yes, all!" He waved his hand very readily, took out a jade coin from the gray cloth bag, and stuffed it into a red envelope without any distress.
According to the number of maids in front of him, he felt that he could celebrate the New Year once a week.
At this moment, the faint voice of the beautiful Su girl came from her ears: "Generally speaking, whether it is a copper coin or a jade coin, nine will be sealed when the New Year's money is sealed. Because the nine are secretly combined with the nine stars, the nine stars are nine entourages, which dominate the good and bad luck in the world... Of course, ten are also good, perfect."
Zheng Qing immediately stopped the movements at hand.
Although the jade coin was very hard, he was worried that while he was in a state of excitement, the jade coin could not withstand his out-of-control power. Then he looked down at the red paper seal in his hand and the gray cloth bag at his hand, and sighed heavily.
It is naturally impossible for Qingqiu Mansion to send a bunch of copper coins to its maid to make the New Year.
The golden beans are a little tacky.
