Chapter 3178 Borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha

The guard came over and greeted us, and then a group of us walked towards the hall.

In the main hall, there were civil and military officials of Wuxiang State, and in the middle sat the king of Wuxiang State.

As soon as we entered the hall, Xiaoguai, who was standing next to the princess, kept blinking at us.

Just when I was a little confused, the sloppy Taoist priest had already reacted. He was the first to take the lead and saluted the masked king of Wuxiang Kingdom who was sitting in the middle of the hall: "I pay my respects to the king. May the king live forever and have a long life. Today is the princess' birthday. I wish the princess to be as luxuriant as pine and cypress, evergreen year after year, and as long-lived as the Nanshan Mountains, blessed with a long life!"

As he spoke, the sloppy Taoist knelt on the ground and bowed deeply to the King of Wuxiang Kingdom in the hall.

Just now, Xiaoguai kept blinking at us, which was a signal for us to salute the king. All along, since we came to the Black Domain, God is the boss and we are the second in command, and we have never taken anyone seriously.

But it’s different here. When facing the King of Wuxiang Kingdom, you must remain respectful, otherwise you won’t be able to do anything later.

Seeing the sloppy Taoist priest saluting, we immediately knelt on the ground and saluted the king.

At this time, the princess stood up, looked at us with a smile, and then said to the king: "Father, these people are a few singers I met when I was walking in the royal city. The songs they sang are very special, and I am sure you have never heard them before. They are really like heavenly music, and the lingering sound can last for three days. Since I heard them last time, I have been thinking about them. Today, I called them to the imperial city to sing for everyone."

"Princess, you are so thoughtful. Let them get started quickly." The king of Wuxiang Kingdom waved his hand.

At this time, several of us had already climbed up from the ground. The sloppy Taoist priest looked at us and then began to pluck the strings of the zither.

The passionate instrument then flowed out from between the sloppy Taoist's fingers.

Xiaopang suddenly became excited and started swinging and dancing wildly.

When the sound of the guitar in the sloppy Taoist priest's hand rang out, everyone in the hall immediately looked towards him. They had never heard of this before.

Then, as soon as the sloppy Taoist priest started singing, the whole atmosphere suddenly became lively.

"The shaking red wine glass, the lips seem to be stained with blood, the unusual beauty, the unforgivable sin, whoever follows faithfully, at best he can be a guard, stepping on roses..."

The sloppy Taoist priest was holding a guitar, singing, and walking around the hall, jumping and dancing.

The inspiring lyrics and music, coupled with the sloppy Taoist's passionate performance, immediately livened up the atmosphere of the entire hall.

The civil and military officials on both sides of the hall were shocked at first, with their mouths wide open. After a while, they began to sway left and right to the rhythm of the music.

Even the king, who was sitting in the hall, began to tap the dragon throne restlessly with his fingers, and his head swayed to the rhythm of the music.

A few of us filled in the gaps and took up various musical instruments to accompany the sloppy Taoist priest.

I would hit the drum from time to time, and Brother Gu would hit the cymbals at inopportune times, which ruined the atmosphere.

But the other party couldn't hear it and thought it sounded quite nice.

This time the sloppy Taoist priest sang a very passionate song. Xiaopang's hair was swinging elegantly and his butt was twisting back and forth.

When I saw Xiaopang’s appearance, the image of Uncle Huzi instantly appeared in my mind.

In this kind of scene, it would be great if Uncle Huzi was there. If he performed a old-age disco and then a breakdance, it would definitely light up the whole audience.

The atmosphere now was already warm enough. The people of Wuxiang Kingdom had never heard such passionate music before. For a moment, everyone was immersed in the ocean of music and couldn't extricate themselves.

After the song was finished, the hall suddenly became very quiet, and then thunderous applause broke out, accompanied by the cheers of many ministers.

The king of Wuxiang, who was sitting in the middle of the hall, also nodded and praised it highly: "It is really like the sound of nature, like pearls falling on a jade plate, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. It is wonderful, simply indescribable."

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. We are willing to play another song for you and your queen..." The sloppy Taoist priest held the guitar and bowed in the direction of the king.

"Okay, one more song." The king of Wuxiang Kingdom waved his hand impatiently.

This time, the sloppy Taoist priest changed to a more soothing song. The previous song "Princess" was just used to warm up the audience.

The sloppy Taoist's piano music sounded again, accompanied by Zhang Qingan's erhu.

The sloppy Taoist's eyes also became deep and sad, as if the sky and the sea were buried deep in his eyes: "Today, I watch the snow drifting in the cold night, drifting away with a cooled heart... Chasing in the wind and rain, unable to distinguish the shadows in the fog, the sky and the sea are vast for you and me..."

Wow, the sloppy Taoist priest once again impressed me. This guy can actually sing Cantonese songs, and he sings very well and emotionally.

As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone was immersed in his singing, and their mood fluctuated with the melody of the song.

At this time, Xiaopang was not so passionate anymore. The frequency of his hair shaking was obviously much slower than before. Xiaopang was also immersed in the singing and began to perform freely.

As the fat boy was swaying, he actually sat down on the ground and began to roll back and forth in the hall, his long flowing hair swaying occasionally.

Seeing Xiaopang’s mean look, I really wanted to go up and kick him a couple of times.

This fat guy treats the main hall of Wuxiang Kingdom as his own home.

After another song was sung, warm applause rang out in the hall again. Xiaopang stood up and kept thanking the civil and military officials in the hall.

The king of Wuxiang was obviously pleased with what he heard. He waved his hand and said loudly: "Give me wine, good wine!"

Immediately, a group of palace maids came out one after another, holding wine glasses and wine jugs, and came to the hall and walked in front of us.

When the sloppy Taoist saw the wine brought by the palace maids, he suddenly glanced at us and immediately had an idea.

The boy suddenly put down the guitar in his hand, holding the wine glass and wine pot, and walked straight towards the king sitting in the hall.

When the two guards nearby saw the sloppy Taoist priest trying to approach the king, they hurried forward to stop him.

However, the king of Wuxiang Kingdom waved his hand, signaling the two guards to move aside.

The king of Wuxiang Kingdom is very powerful, so he is naturally not afraid of the sloppy Taoist priest.

The sloppy Taoist priest went straight to the king of Wuxiang, poured a glass of wine, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, today I dare to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha, on behalf of the people of our entire Wuxiang Kingdom, I offer you a glass of wine. If it weren't for your hard work, there would be no long-term peace and prosperity in Wuxiang!"
