Chapter 1627 Bai Family (Part 3)

Just like that, they hurried along breathlessly until noon, when their legs weakened and they stopped walking, looking forward with joy on their faces.

On the hillside not far ahead, a rather spectacular small city stood out.

Although this city is not as large as Handan City, it is definitely more than ten miles wide. At a glance, the whole city is like a fortress with copper walls and iron walls. The black stone walls are about ten feet high, and heavy iron gates stand on both sides. Through the gates, you can clearly see the pavilions and spacious bluestone avenues inside, giving people a feeling of a royal palace.

Seeing this scene, the people in the wedding procession all had various expressions of shock, envy, timidity, etc.

Only Wu Fan looked careless, just glanced casually, and then looked away.

At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted "Lift the sedan chair", and suddenly, the sound of gongs, drums and suonas started again, and a festive atmosphere filled the air.

Then, everyone tidied up their clothes, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, put on a smile and walked forward again.

At this moment, the huge city gate was already surrounded by thousands of people who were watching, including men, women, young and old.

Although these people were ordinary mortals, they were different from those in the secular world outside. They were not only dressed in gorgeous clothes, but also had a strong temperament, as if they were of a higher status, and everyone had a confident look in their eyes.

At this moment, everyone was pointing at the wedding procession, laughing non-stop, and talking to the people next to them.

At the front of the crowd, there was a middle-aged couple standing. The man had a square face and big eyes, a black beard, and looked average.

But the woman was a beautiful woman with a graceful figure. When the two were compared, they seemed a bit out of place. No matter how you looked at it, the man was not worthy of the woman.

But the strange thing was that the woman looked like a husband singing and a wife, and was very respectful to the man.

Until the wedding procession approached, the woman hurriedly stepped forward and asked the groom on horseback in the front about his well-being.

And the middle-aged man smiled and nodded from time to time, as if he was saying something to the groom.

Obviously, these two people were the parents of the groom.

Not long after, under the lead of the couple, everyone made way and followed the wedding procession into the city.

From beginning to end, Wu Fan looked indifferent, walking in the team, and from time to time he released his spiritual sense to check the city.

But until now, he has not found any immortal cultivators here.

It seems that he needs to wait for a while.

After a while, the wedding procession and the people of the Bai family in the city all gathered on a huge square. Looking around, there were crowds of people and the scene was very lively.

This square was clean and tidy, paved entirely with bluestone, covering a large area, enough to accommodate everyone.

At the front of the square, following the steps, there was a high platform with a radius of ten feet.

At this moment, there were more than a dozen people standing or sitting on it.

In addition to the groom, the Lin family's wife, and the groom's parents, there were some sitting on chairs, who were obviously respected Bai family elders, each of whom looked old and frail, and was a person in his twilight years.

At this time, an old man with white hair and beard stood up from the chair. He walked up slowly, glanced at the people below, and began to talk loudly.

The square, which was originally noisy, became silent as this person spoke.

Obviously, this old man has an absolute weight in the hearts of everyone.

As for what the old man said, it was basically about the happy event of the Bai family today, marrying a girl from the Lin family in Handan City, hoping that this girl can give birth to several children with spiritual roots for the Bai family in the future, and then hoping that the couple can respect each other in the future, etc.!

These were all clichés on the scene, and there was nothing special about them.

But this set of procedures was different from those of ordinary people, and there were no broken rules.

But in the end, some thanksgivings and tea offerings to parents and elders were not left out.

Although the lady of the Lin family did not like the groom, she did not show any abnormality throughout the whole process, and seemed to be generous and cooperated with a smile.

I think this girl also knew that once she entered the door of the Bai family, her fate would not be controlled by herself in the future. Even for the sake of her family, she had to live a stable life and support her husband and children.

She naturally didn't believe the nonsense that the storytellers under the overpass said about going through fire and water for true love and pursuing happiness. After all, she was just a mortal. When facing a family of immortal cultivators, her meager power seemed so ridiculous.

Although the whole process was slow, it only took an incense stick of time. After that, the old man returned to his seat and closed his eyes to rest.

But strangely, the people present had no intention of leaving. Even the groom's family was standing quietly waiting, with expectations on their faces.

During this period, Wu Fan in the crowd below seemed a little anxious. He looked up at the sky from time to time and didn't want to listen to the old man's nagging.

Normally, the process has been completed now. If the groom's grandfather wanted to come, he should have arrived long ago, but now he has not arrived yet, which makes him a little worried, fearing that the other party will not come due to something unexpected.

If this is true, then what he has done in recent days is in vain.

But he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. After all, everyone had not left yet, and they were probably waiting for that person.

Unexpectedly, after another cup of tea, no immortal cultivators arrived.

This not only made Wu Fan look extremely gloomy, but even the groom's family also looked disappointed.

At this moment, thousands of people present were whispering, and from time to time someone pointed at the groom's family, with a sneer on their face, saying sarcastic and mocking words.

This scene made the groom's family angry, but also extremely embarrassed. If that person didn't come, their family would be embarrassed.

However, just when everyone was getting impatient, Wu Fan in the crowd had his eyes lit up and turned his head to look at the horizon.

Naturally, no one saw his action, but soon, a loud laugh came from the horizon.

"Haha, sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. I was practicing in seclusion before and forgot the time. I almost delayed my grandson's important event. Grandfather apologizes to Chong'er here."

As soon as this voice fell, the groom's family suddenly showed great joy on their faces and turned their heads to look at the horizon.

The people on the square also looked over in surprise. The laughter disappeared instantly, as if it had never happened. Everyone looked respectful and bowed to the horizon.

In the sky, an old man with ordinary appearance and short stature came driving something similar to a compass.

Although this person's aura was not strong, he showed a domineering momentum when facing the people below, trying his best to show mysterious majesty.

He also deliberately put one hand behind his back and stroked his beard with the other hand. After circling in the air, he landed on the high platform.
