Chapter 47 47 “It takes two people sucking at the same time.”…

What is this arrow made of? It’s too brittle!

At this moment, the communication device on Su Xiaoyuan's waist began to jingle.

"It must be the opening of the mountain," she said to the puppet. "I'll go meet her at the gate. You wait here for me, Fu Tingyun."

The puppet said nothing and turned away.

Is it because of the frustration of a broken arrow?

Su Xiaoyuan didn't bother to comfort him. She picked up the phone and ran towards the entrance.

Fu Tingyun watched her back as she walked away, walked to Xiahou Che's lantern man, moved his fingers, and a silver arrow appeared in the quiver, then flew out backwards with a "whoosh".

He raised his hand to catch it, walked to his lantern man, threw the arrow in his hand into it, then turned the lantern man's belt so that the quiver hung on his waist.

This is much more pleasing to the eye.

Su Xiaoyuan ran to the door, and Ruan Mianmian arrived just in time.

What surprised her was that her best friend actually brought Song Jinshu's puppet with her.

The puppet changed out of his usual work clothes for farming, and put on a bamboo green robe, a white jade crown on his head, and a broken jade fan in his hand. At first glance, he looked like a handsome young man.

"I went back to pick up this idiot, so I'm late." Ruan Mianmian explained, "Hey, where's your precious puppet?"

"He's waiting for me inside..." Su Xiaoyuan wondered, "How did you know I brought him with me?"

"That's your sweetheart, how could I not know that?"

Su Xiaoyuan hit her lightly: "Don't talk nonsense! I'm not a pervert..."

"Then why are you blushing, Xiao Yuanzi?" her best friend giggled and pinched her face. "Why are you feeling guilty?"

"No way!" Su Xiaoyuan retorted, but quite weakly.

Ruan Mianmian: "If I wasn't afraid of being left alone, why would I bring this burden to make up the numbers?"

"How could that be? Of course I'll give priority to you in Kaishan..." Su Xiaoyuan said hurriedly.

"I'm just teasing you. Who would I be jealous of a puppet?" Ruan Mianmian said with a giggle. "If I'm going to be jealous, it has to be your beloved husband, Immortal Ling Yue."

Su Xiaoyuan covered her ears and begged, "We finally got to go out and have fun tonight, so don't mention him!"

She handed the blue cloth bag to her best friend and said, "I'll go get Song Jinshu a new ticket."

Ruan Mianmian shook her head: "No, no, I asked the sister who sells tickets. Puppets are considered objects and are free of charge. You didn't buy a ticket for your baby, did you? I'll ask if I can get a refund..."

"Forget it, we've already bought it, and it doesn't cost much," Su Xiaoyuan hurriedly pulled her back, "Just consider it a contribution to the sect."

"Okay, Fairy Su is rich and powerful." Ruan Mianmian teased her and let it go.

The two of them walked towards the lantern man, arm in arm, chatting affectionately. They saw the puppet man standing there, his profile reflected in the lantern light, his robe sleeves fluttering in the evening breeze, his hair gently rising.

Everyone who passed by couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Ruan Mianmian also sighed: "You said this puppet, it would be great if it were a real person."

"It's good like this now."

If it was a real person, she would not be so comfortable, and there was no way she would bring a living person home in the first place.

When they reached the lantern man, Ruan Mianmian pulled out a silver arrow from her bag and asked, "Who did you shoot, Xiao Yuanzi?"

"Of course it's Senior Brother Xiahou." Su Xiaoyuan said as a matter of course.

"Have you figured it out? Are you going to collect essence from Senior Brother Xiahou?"

"Of course not!" Su Xiaoyuan quickly denied.

"But isn't this the most desirable handsome guy list? Why would you vote for him if you don't want to pick him?"

"No matter what the list is, I will definitely vote for people I know," Su Xiaoyuan said, "This is a friendship vote."

The puppet turned his head and glanced at her lightly, his sharp eyebrows softening a little.

Ruan Mianmian held the arrow and looked at the lanterns one by one: "Oh, your sweetheart is here!"

"Shh, keep your voice down," Su Xiaoyuan almost covered her mouth, "He is not my sweetheart, I don't even know him."

"So you don't want to pick him?"

Su Xiaoyuan: "I do want to, but that's my career goal, not my feelings. I only have a small friendship with Senior Brother Xiahou."

"Tsk, is that a little bit of friendship? Today, Senior Brother Gu even asked me if you and Senior Brother Xiahou are a couple..."

At this moment, there was a sudden "whoosh" sound.

The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw a silver arrow flying into the air.

"Who threw this? What if it hits someone?" Ruan Mianmian said angrily.

Before he finished speaking, there was another "whoosh" sound.

This time they all saw that the arrow flew out from the quiver on Ling Yue Xianzun's waist.

Before they could react, silver arrows flew out of the quiver one after another, connected end to end, circling in the night sky like a silver vortex, which was very beautiful.

Such a big commotion quickly attracted everyone's attention.

The disciples exclaimed, "What is this?"

"Was this arranged in advance?"

“I don’t remember last year…”

Just when everyone was puzzled, the leading arrow fell rapidly and hit Xiahou Che's lantern man's head.

Then came the second arrow, the third... All the arrows seemed to have eyes, and they all pierced Xiahou Che's lantern man, soon turning the lantern man into a hedgehog.

This couldn't have been arranged in advance, because Xiahou Che's reputation and popularity in the entire sect could not be better, and the relationship between Yueliang Village and Huanhua Island is good, so it is impossible to organize such an entertainment program targeting him.

That leaves only one answer...

"It must be the spirit of Immortal Lingyue appearing!"

"But what is the grudge between Immortal Venerable Lingyue and Junior Brother Xiahou? Why did he stab him alone?"

"I know! It must be because Junior Brother Xiahou wanted to play the role of Ling Yue Immortal Venerable at the parade. The Immortal Venerable was offended, so he sent down the divine punishment..."

"Wait, wait, if I remember correctly, Immortal Lingyue hasn't ascended yet, right?"

"You don't understand this. I heard that in Lingyue Immortal Venerable's Wuji Palace there's a giant mirror called the 'Divine Eye'. With this mirror, the Immortal Venerable can see every move of all beings in the Three Realms without leaving his home!"

"How terrifying! We are discussing the Immortal Venerable here, so he wouldn't know about it, right?"

Fu Tingyun: “…” He indeed knew.

The disciples talked at once, and their words became more and more outrageous.

A sharp-eyed disciple noticed that the number on Ling Yue Xianzun's quiver had turned into "one": "How come there's still one quiver left?"

"The Immortal Venerable threw away all his arrows except for one. I wonder whose arrow it is?"

"The Immortal Venerable accepted the arrows offered by someone. Could it be that he has taken a fancy to this person?"

Before he finished speaking, the only arrow flew out with a "whoosh", turned around in mid-air, and flew straight towards a dazed little female cultivator nearby.

Su Xiaoyuan had never expected that the arrow would fly towards her. Her mind went blank. She knew she should dodge, but her legs felt like they were made of cement and she couldn't move at all.

Ruan Mianmian was still figuring out which handsome guy to throw the arrow at, and she didn't even notice the movement here. By the time she noticed it, it was too late.

Su Xiaoyuan stared blankly at the arrow flying towards her and subconsciously closed her eyes.

At the critical moment, a white shadow suddenly flashed by.

The expected severe pain did not come. She opened her eyes in confusion and saw that the arrowhead was only a few centimeters away from her eyebrows, and a hand was holding the arrow firmly.

Su Xiaoyuan was stunned for a few seconds, then felt a surge of fear. Her legs softened and her body leaned back into a warm embrace. She could clearly feel the man's muscles on her back. They were soft and flexible at first, but then became firm in an instant.

Although the person who saved her was behind her and she couldn't see his face, she instantly knew that it was her puppet.

She turned around, hugged his waist tightly, buried her face in his arms, and tears flowed down her face: "Fu Tingyun..."

The puppet put the arrow into his sleeve and patted her back mechanically: "It's okay."

The crowd of onlookers breathed a sigh of relief.

Ruan Mianmian screamed in horror, "Xiao Yuanzi——" and ran over.

Su Xiaoyuan came to her senses and felt a little embarrassed after crying in public while hugging the puppet. She held his arm to steady herself and said, "Okay, I'm fine. Let me go, Fu Tingyun."

The puppet loosened his arms.

Su Xiaoyuan turned around and walked towards her best friend. Ruan Mianmian hugged her and burst into tears.

Su Xiaoyuan had never seen her bestie like this before, and was startled again. She frantically patted her back to comfort her: "I'm really fine, don't be afraid..."

Ruan Mianmian pulled the sleeve of Song Jinshu's puppet and wiped her tears: "Xiao Yuanzi, let's not talk about Ling Yuexianzun in the future. What happened tonight was too weird. It's better to believe it..."

Su Xiaoyuan was also a little worried.

Ruan Mianmian scratched her head: "But there are so many people who want to be the Immortal Lord, why would he pick on a little female cultivator like you?"

"Maybe it was just a coincidence? I happened to be standing there..."

Ruan Mianmian was convinced: "It must be a coincidence. Even if it was the Immortal Venerable who did... no, appeared in spirit, he wouldn't recognize you."

"That's it," Su Xiaoyuan tried to make her voice sound cheerful, "Kaishan, you throw the arrow, and then we'll go eat something delicious."

"Okay, okay. There's also Moon Flower Wine. I've been craving it for a year." Ruan Mianmian became happy again when she heard that it was delicious.

Su Xiaoyuan smiled with relief, but her heart was not as relaxed as she appeared.

Others may not know, but she is very clear about the cruelty and ruthlessness of Ling Yue Xianzun.

Moreover, in the novel, she was split in half by his own hands. Perhaps there was some bond or mysterious power that led the arrow to her.

Just as he was thinking about it, Ruan Mianmian had already shot her arrow and came back, clapping her hands: "Alright!"

"Have you voted for Senior Brother Xiahou?" Su Xiaoyuan calmed down and asked.

"I originally wanted to cast a friendship vote, but when I saw Senior Brother Xiahou's look..." Ruan Mianmian shook her head and sighed, "My friendship with Senior Brother Xiahou is not that deep."

Su Xiaoyuan was amused by her: "Who did you vote for Kaishan?"

Ruan Mianmian pointed at a lantern-carving figure at the back: "Immortal Lord Li Heng."

When Su Xiaoyuan took a look, she saw that the lantern man had a slim figure, beautiful appearance, even a little feminine, and the number of votes was not high.

"Do you know him?" she asked.

"Yes."

"Which sect is he from?"

"have no idea."

"But didn't you say..."

"I didn't know him originally, I just met him," Ruan Mianmian said, rubbing her hands in anticipation, "I've already decided, after I'm done trampling and ravaging Song Jinshu, I'm going to capture this Immortal Lord Li Heng!"

Su Xiaoyuan: "...Okay, I wish you success!"

The chaos caused by the lantern man incident gradually subsided, and the senior brothers and sisters in charge of voting respectfully "invited" Immortal Master Ling Yue's lantern man away.

However, when they wanted to pull out the arrows and cast a spell to repair the lamp man, the arrows did not move at all, so Master Xiahou had no choice but to continue his business with thorns all over his body.

At this time, Senior Sister Wu and her friends also arrived.

Su Xiaoyuan was busy introducing her best friend to them and forgot about the lantern man.

Senior Sister Wu led them to a stall with familiarity: "This Yuehua Brew is the most authentic, using the finest spirit wine. You can drink it with confidence!"

It was the first time that Su Xiaoyuan saw this legendary drink - Moon Flower is the flower that blooms on the Twin Trees in Moon Village. It blooms only on this one night a year. The flowers are as white as snow. The big ones are the size of small coconuts, and the small ones are as big as big pears. They are naturally shaped like wine cups. The "wine cups" contain nectar made from the essence of the sun and the moon, which becomes a fine wine when mixed with the best spirit wine.

She was about to pay when Senior Sister Wu had already paid the bill: "This drink is for you, Senior Sister and Brother. I'm sorry for not taking good care of Junior Sister Xiaoyuan and making you suffer."

"How can this be so embarrassing!" Su Xiaoyuan was at a loss. "Senior Sister Wu helped me, so I should treat you."

Senior Sister Wu pressed the largest moon flower into her hand and said, "Why are you being so polite to us?"

Su Xiaoyuan took it and saw two long stamens extending from the center of the flower, like straws. She took a sip, but nothing came out.

"Oh, I forgot that my junior sister can't drink yet." Senior Sister Wu held her moon flower and waved to the foodie senior brother.

The foodie senior brother came over, lowered his head and bit the other pistil. Their heads were put together and their lips were almost touching.

The two took a deep puff, and Sister Wu wiped her mouth: "See? It takes two people to puff at the same time."

Su Xiaoyuan looked at Ruan Mianmian, but her greedy best friend had already put her knowledge into practice and started sucking on her puppet.

She could only look at her own puppet: "Fu Tingyun, you... do you want to drink with me?"

The puppet looked at her for a while, then walked over silently, took her hand, lowered his head, and took a stamen into his mouth.

Su Xiaoyuan: "That is..."

She wanted to say that it was the one she had just sucked, but it was too late, the puppet had already taken it between his lips.

In order to match her height, he bent down and leaned close to her, raising his eyelids to look up at her from below, as if it were some kind of invitation.

Su Xiaoyuan quickly lowered her head, pushed her falling hair behind her ears, and took the other pistil into her mouth.

The pistil was much shorter than the straw, and no matter how careful she was, she inevitably touched the puppet's lips.

It's so soft. I can feel it with my lips and it seems to be even softer than when I was having the "treatment".

An electric-like numbness spread from my lips to my whole body.

At the same time, the sweet and mellow wine flows into the mouth.

She tried her best to swallow, but the wine came out too much too fast and she didn't have time to swallow it, so it overflowed from the corners of her mouth.

Su Xiaoyuan wanted to stop, but the puppet seemed to suddenly become very greedy and kept sucking, so she could only cooperate with him reluctantly.

Finally, she sucked the liquid out of a flower, spit out the nectar, and was about to take a handkerchief from her sleeve to wipe her mouth when suddenly a shadow came over her.

Realizing what it was, Su Xiaoyuan held her breath for an instant, her back tensed like a taut bowstring.

She closed her eyes involuntarily.

But what I expected did not happen, and I felt the touch of silk at the corner of my mouth.

The puppet took a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped the wine from the corners of her mouth, then her jaw and neck.

When it went deeper into the collar, Su Xiaoyuan grabbed it and said, "I can wipe it myself, thank you..."
