Chapter 1070 - Magnificent Scene at Lake Tai (1/2)
“Boss, we’re at Lake Tai! Come and take a look at the red carpet we’ve prepared for you over the past half a month.”
When he heard Little North’s impatient urges, Happy could vaguely feel the speed of the carriage suddenly become much slower. The neighs and the galloping sounds coming from in front also rapidly diminished in number, they were curious. The girl in his arms smiled like a fox, and he pushed open the door of the carriage.
What they saw was a parade standing neatly by the sides of the road where the carriage was situated. The areas beside them were filled with players who craned their necks to look. Happy could not see the end to the crowd.
“There’re so many people!”
Happy was shocked by the scene outside.
The tunnel was hundreds of feet long, and players filled the sides of the road to watch. He could already see more than one hundred thousand people within sight.
Thud, thud, thud…
The eight handsome and white horses pulled the carriage and slowly headed into the path that was isolated by the parade.
The sound of clothes fluttering was heard. Petals filled the air, and they fell down like raindrops from the sky. They were accompanied by an elegant and refreshing fragrance, causing the incredibly magnificent and joyful red carpet to be filled with a charming and lively air.
When they faced countless heated and envious gazes, Happy and Xu Xin, who had a red covering over her head, sat together at the front of the carriage. He could not help but extend his hand to catch a petal that fell on the bell. He was a little dazzled by the new moves Silver Wolf and his group continued bringing on the table, but he could sense the meticulousness in every inch of the ceremony, and it brought him warmth in his heart. This feeling was, indeed, pretty good.
He first encountered a parade formed by ten thousand people that escorted him for hundreds of miles. Then, he sat in a comfy and wide carriage with a jade bell. This was followed by a red carpet and a petal shower. Their entire trip here was also incredibly smooth, and it was not difficult for him to see that Silver Wolf and the others had spent a lot of effort in this.
Happy started longing to see what would happen next, and he was incredibly excited. The players who were watching by the side also felt that their trip here had not been wasted.
They saw a grand and luxurious carriage with a jade bell, handsome white horses that were worth ten thousand taels of gold, a red parade number to ten thousand people, and it was grand. There were even youthful girls flying about in the sky like immortals while they were dressed in red dresses. They threw the petals in their flower baskets, allowing the parade to feel as if they were walking down a path filled with petals and the fragrance of flowers in the immortals’ world. It looked grand and extravagant.
“I saw Happy.”
“Who’s the bride?”
“Whew… take a video, quick. All the girls in Mu Clan are beautiful…”
“This whole spectacle sure is grand, but it seems like something is missing, right?”
There were also quite a number of people in the crowd who watched the carriage lead the parade to the port with envious, jealous, and hateful gazes. They whispered among themselves while picking the smallest of faults in the parade.
“Where’s the music?”
When a number of people thought of this, the parade finally got close to the port of Lake Tai.
*****
Before the carriage drew close to the bank, it stopped. Many of the players who were waiting over there suddenly sensed something, and a thought popped up in their heads. They turned their heads to look at the depths of Lake Tai. They could hear vague zither notes coming from it. It sounded like a proper piece, and it came from a layer of fog, which was located at the depths of Lake Tai.
The zither notes were mixed with sounds that made it something was coming toward them courageously.
When they heard this, a lot of people instantly became alert.
They originally thought that they would need to wait for a while before they could enter Mantuo Villa even when the parade was already facing Lake Tai, but now, they finally obtained their answer.
Two fast sailing ships tied with two red silk clothes shot out of the thin layer of fog, and tied on the bows of the ships were the large Chinese characters 囍, which meant double happiness.
Then, dozens of other fast sailing ships shot out.
Soon, more than one hundred ships filled the lake.
And in the blink of an eye, hundreds of ships charged out of the thin layer of fog in Lake Tai. They were originally vague, but they soon became clear, and they moved so quickly that they were like speedboats.
There were a lot more dense black dots behind these ships, and they were shown in the scattered fog. There were a lot of them, and they gave off the presence that a navy was meeting up with a legion of cavaliers
Many pairs of eyes at the bank could not help but be dumbfounded when they saw this impressive and spectacular scene.
Those people who had been talking about how there was no music also shut up, because there were three musicians on each of the hundreds of ships who led the other ships.
Zither sounds filled the air, and they were accompanied by other instruments. They instantly decorated the quiet Lake Tai until it looked like a lake of music. The happy music elegant traveled leisurely on Lake Tai. When the ships drew close to the lake, they harmoniously welcomed the parade who came from afar.
The ships changed formation when they drew close to the shore.
All the ships with musicians on them moved to the sides and formed two independent camps to keep a distance from the bank.
A large fleet of ships sailed forward from behind. By now, there were already at least one thousand ships that entered the people’s sights.
They formed groups, and each group had six ships forming a line.
They were neat and orderly, and they appeared in a manner as if they only wanted to appear after the people started complaining about how it was impossible for Mu Clan to not delay the wedding.
Two Mu Clan members could be found on each ship.
Right when the batch of ships that were at the forefront drew close to the bank, the Mu Clan members on the ships quickly brought out a wide wooden plank from their Universe Bags, positioned it horizontally, and fixed it to the ships near to them.
They then used two hidden weapons which were usually used in battle to quietly fix the ships in place with hidden force.
A path which was wider than sixty-five feet was fixed between the ships by the bank.
