"The Moon Goddess Lamp!"
"The Moon Goddess Lamp!"
There were a large number of zombies, men, women, young and old, standing behind Xia Qi. They were standing so densely that there was no end in sight. Even Xia Qi didn't know when so many people appeared behind him.
After Xia Qi finished speaking, the group of zombies ignored him completely. They looked up at the lights with great excitement, their faces full of piety.
Amid the crowd's cheers, the Luna Lamp flew towards them at an extremely fast speed, and the crowd's cheers kept getting louder and louder, almost deafening.
"The Moon Goddess Lamp is here! The Moon Goddess is right here with us!"
"Ah! Why didn't the Luna Lamp come to us?"
"Moon Goddess! Who is the beautiful Moon Goddess?"
Amid the heated discussion among the crowd, the Luna Lamp was like a speeding car fully fueled, coming towards him at a speed of 150 mph.
Xia Qi bit his lips tightly and could only watch the Luna Lamp approaching and approaching again. Suddenly, above his head, the Luna Lamp braked suddenly and stopped.
When they saw the Moon Goddess Lamp, which was as bright as the moon, stop and slowly spin in the air, everyone held their breath and looked at the lucky person standing under the Moon Goddess Lamp in shock.
At this time, there were two men on each side of Xia Qi, and a female zombie. The female zombie clenched her fists nervously and uttered an excited moan: "Oh my God... Am I the Moon God?"
The two male zombies also blushed and whispered, "No way, how could Your Majesty like men... I'm so shy."
Xia Qi: “…”
However, the Moon Goddess Lamp ignored the others who were being sentimental. It spun for a while, then began to slowly fall downwards. Finally, it landed in front of Xia Qi.
Although the Moon Goddess Lamp was as beautiful as the moon in the sky, Xia Qi could not feel any liking for it.
He stared at the lamp expressionlessly, finding it extremely annoying.
As if afraid that he would not catch it, the blinding Moon Lamp turned again. Seeing that Xia Qi still refused to reach out his hand, it finally lost all shame and pushed directly into his arms, signaling him to hold it quickly.
Could it be that this Moon God Lamp has become a spirit
“Ahhh!!!”
"Luna, hold on to the lamp!"
Seeing the Moon God Lamp recognize its master, everyone around it instantly became like a lit firecracker. Their eyes were red and their gazes were fiery. Their fiery gazes almost pierced through Xia Qi.
The female zombie standing next to Xia Qi actually cried, with black tears streaming down her eyes. I said aggrievedly, "So... you are the Moon Goddess. Please protect His Majesty."
Xia Qi: “…”
"Moon God! Moon God! Moon God!"
"Hold the lamp! Hold the lamp! Hold the lamp!"
I don't know who started it, but all of a sudden, everyone started shouting in unison, clapping their hands rhythmically while shouting, turning the square into a large-scale singing scene for military training.
Xia Qi's head began to hurt from their noise, and he thought, if he didn't pick up the light today, these zombies would probably yell him to death.
Looking at the people around him who were becoming increasingly crazy, Xia Qi gritted his teeth, raised his arms stiffly, and hugged the Luna Lamp that looked like the moon in front of him.
The moment his hands touched the Moon Goddess Lamp, the entire Moon Goddess Lamp suddenly burst into a holy light. The light was centered on him and spread out in all directions like water waves in an instant.
“Wow—”
The light dispersed and then gradually disappeared. He didn't know if it was Xia Qi's illusion, but he felt that the expressions of the people around him became more lively and less like zombies.
Ding Dong! Side quest progress +20%! Total side quest progress: 30%.
Xia Qi heard the reminder of Meng Po's side quest.
Hearing this, Xia Qi frowned. Just accepting the identity of "Moon God" is equivalent to completing 20% directly? ! It seems that the progress of his side quest is not difficult to earn.
However, there is only the reminder of the side quest now, and there is no movement for the main quest "Meet your Mr. Right!"...
However, Xia Qi had a bad feeling that his main mission would be completed soon.
After the sudden burst of light from the Luna Lamp disappeared, the light returned to normal again.
After people bathed in the sacred moonlight, they dispersed again as if they had received an order. Then, with the Golden Arches as the central axis, they stood in an orderly manner on both sides, creating a smooth road to love for Xia Qi.
Seeing how well-trained they were, Xia Qi was stunned for a moment, and in a trance he thought he was going to the McDonald's to raise the national flag.
Just when Xia Qi was confused, the familiar vicissitudes of life voice of an old man sounded from afar: "Please ask the Moon God to board the dragon boat and light the moon lanterns for the city that never sleeps."
"What does it mean to light the moon lantern?"
Xia Qi looked at the direction where the sound came from in confusion. At this moment, the golden archway of the palace wall not far away was suddenly opened, and a dragon boat with carved dragons and painted phoenixes floated out from the center.
This dragon boat is about ten meters long, with yellow scales all over the hull and phoenix decorations on both sides. Although this dragon boat looks huge and magnificent, if you look closely, it actually looks more like a lantern than a real boat.
In the center of the phoenix where the dragon boat is flying, there is a large hollow building made of jade and shaped like a round moon. The front of the round moon faces people, and a large round door is dug out, on which hangs a layer of sparkling pearl curtain.
From a distance, Xia Qi could see a tall figure sitting behind the beaded curtain.
He is here.
Xia Qi narrowed his eyes.
"His Majesty!"
The moment the dragon boat appeared, everyone around Xia Qi knelt down in unison. They raised their heads and looked at the man on the dragon boat with tears in their eyes, their faces full of emotion and respect.
The maid in front of the dragon boat carried a flower basket and scattered white petals along the way. The white petals floated beside the dragon boat and then floated into the Moon Gate. The man gently lifted a corner of the bead curtain, stretched out his broad and slender right hand, and carefully caught a white flower.
Xia Qi stood there holding the lamp, watching the dragon boat gradually approaching him with an expressionless face.
After the dragon boat stopped in front of him, the old man's voice sounded again.
"Please ask the Moon God to board the dragon boat!"
After this voice fell, all the people kneeling on the ground looked at him in unison. Then, they raised their hands in unison again and said to him in unison: "Please come aboard, Moon Goddess!"
Xia Qi: “…”
Why does the same sentence completely change its meaning after being repeated by this group of fools
What the hell is the Moon Goddess
Also, getting on a boat sounds so weird...
Xia Qi was so angry that he felt like a mouthful of blood was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't swallow it down, nor could he spit it out.
Just as he stood there motionless, a pleasant, magnetic male voice came from the dragon boat: "My Moon God, come to my side quickly."
Xia Qi: “…”
Feeling that the voice was very close, Xia Qi looked up and saw that the person in the door in the moonlight had already walked out.
At this time, the man was standing on the boat, bending over and stretching out his hand towards him.
The man's eyes were warm and clear, and the look in his eyes seemed to come back to him yesterday.
Seeing Xia Qi standing motionless below, the man stretched out his hand to him again, and said to him softly in a voice as gentle as water: "Come."
Xia Qi frowned and found himself once again with no way to go and no way to retreat.
Sighing helplessly, Xia Qi raised his right hand and placed it in his large palm.
His hands were hot, which surprised Xia Qi.
After holding Xia Qi's hand, Ye Di showed a faint smile.
Xia Qi raised his foot and stepped onto the dragon boat's pedal. With just a little effort, he used his strength to board the dragon boat.
The main quest "Meet Your Mr. Right!" is over!
Degree value: +100, total degree value: 100.
Xia Qi frowned and found that this time he didn't get any additional main storyline progress, but instead got a strange thing like a "degree value".
Compared with the previous team-shared progress values, this time the Light Extinguisher seems to have no overall progress. Everyone has their own side quest progress, and the main quest only serves as a guide.
It seems that increasing the degree value is crucial, and I don’t know what to do to continue to increase the degree value.
"My Moon God." Ye Di called him.
Xia Qi's voice brought him back to his senses.
He took a step back and looked at the man in front of him carefully.
Unlike the zombies he had seen during the day, the man in front of him did not look like a zombie at all. He was as vivid as a living person. He was wearing a black robe with a purple skirt and a crown on his head. The crown was black, and a few pearls hung from the crown, half covering his facial features. On the shoulders of his black robe, there were patterns of the sun, moon and stars. On both sides of his sleeves, there were golden dragon and phoenix totems embroidered, and between the dragon and the phoenix were mountains and rivers.
Wearing this extremely dark-colored ritual garment, not only did it not make him look rigid, but it made him look tall and straight, with an imposing manner, and made his entire body filled with the aura of a superior.
After pulling Xia Qi onto the dragon boat, Ye Di did not let go of his hand. He raised Xia Qi's hand, and his eyes, which were originally unfathomable under his sword-like eyebrows, seemed to sprinkle a soft starlight at this time. His voice was full of expectation, and he asked: "My lonely Moon God, are you willing to light the moon lamp for the City That Never Sleeps?"
Xia Qi sighed silently and thought, I've been kidnapped by you, how can I say no
"... I do." Xia Qi replied helplessly.
After he finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Xia Qi felt something was wrong. He looked at Ye Di in front of him in confusion, but found that his expression was very wrong.
Ye Di looked at Xia Qi in disbelief, his lips moved and his eyes widened slightly. After a while, his eye circles slowly turned red.
"Ahh! He agreed!!!"
At this moment, the crowd suddenly burst into loud cheers. Everyone was completely excited and crazy. They screamed and hugged each other. Some people even jumped three feet high, like crazy fans who went crazy at a concert.
Xia Qi stood there in confusion, thinking, what the hell did I agree to
“…Okay.” Ye Di responded in a low voice, his voice choking a little.
Ye Di pulled him towards the Moon Gate, lifted the bead curtain, and then he pulled Xia Qi to sit down together.
After the two sat down, Xia Qi decisively withdrew his hand, acting very cold and ruthless.
A trace of regret flashed across Ye Di's eyes, but he quickly adjusted his mood and said to Xia Qi: "From now on, my people are your people."
Xia Qi looked hopeless and said helplessly: "... whatever you say is what it is."
Ye Di stared at him without blinking.
After the two of them sat down, the dragon boat gradually moved forward. With a "splash", the dragon boat seemed to fall into the water again.
On the sparkling river, the dragon boat was like the brightest thing at night, especially the moon building above the dragon boat. As Xia Qi was sitting inside with the moon lamp in his arms, the moon building let out the moonlight in his arms, and the entire moon building seemed brighter than the moon in the sky.
The dragon boat gradually moved downstream along the Naihe River. Xia Qi was like a bright guiding light. Whenever he arrived at a place, all the lights there would burn at 200% brightness.
Along the Nai River, countless people were running, fanatically calling out "Moon Goddess". They seemed tireless, like moths in the night, chasing the only source of light.
The dragon boats sailed farther and farther on the Naihe River. There were more and more lights around the river. The colorful lights lit up the river on the ground, making the city that never sleeps seem like the human world.
At this time, nearly a hundred red Kongming lanterns floated in the sky above various ancient buildings not far away. After the Kongming lanterns scattered with the wind, they gathered into a river in the dark night sky.
At this moment, all the longings in the world that have been forgotten in the corners are rekindled as if they will never be extinguished.
The warm light shone on Ye Di's face, diluting his cold brows and making his expression look particularly gentle.
Being stared at by his affectionate gaze, Xia Qi was in a trance for a moment.
However, he quickly came to his senses and asked intently, "How do I light this... Moon Lamp?"
To light a lamp sounds like to put a lamp in a place.
As soon as Xia Qi finished speaking, he heard a rushing sound of wind.
Ye Di's expression suddenly changed. He ignored Xia Qi's puzzled expression, leaned over suddenly, and threw Xia Qi to the ground.
With a "swoosh" sound, an arrow pierced through the bead curtain and directly hit the beam of the moon building.
"How dare you! Who dares to assassinate me?"
The veins on Ye Di's forehead jumped and he let out an angry roar.
