Zhang Zian was left speechless by Zhuang Xiaodie's question.

Did the bride-escorting team have anything to do with him?

His family was from Binhai city, but he wasn't sure how "ancestral" it was. His family wasn't a very old-fashioned and traditional family, so he didn't care about family history. Therefore, he didn't know when his ancestors had lived in Binhai city. Considering the dynasty cycle in China history, they might have fled to this place during a war and settled down.

From his parents 'occasional mention, he seemed to have heard that his family's ancestors used to be rich, but they slowly declined in the long twentieth century, one war after another. In addition to the several turmoil after the liberation, no matter how rich a family was, they couldn't withstand such a torment.

If his ancestors had lived in Binhai town a hundred years ago, he would understand her question.

In such a small seaside town, anyone with a little bit of status in the town knew each other, and it was normal for them to try to get closer to each other. After all, blood relations were the most basic and reliable bond to maintain common interests.

Therefore, a certain person in this bride-escorting team, such as the young lady sitting in the sedan chair or the servant girl serving next to her, after a hundred years of offspring, may have some kind of blood relationship with him, close or distant. If it was close to a certain extent, he might not even have been born without the arrival of this bride-escorting team. This was also very easy to understand.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a sense of closeness to the bride's team. It was as if he was stroking a small object passed down by his ancestors. When he thought of this small object being held in the hands of many people for generations, it was as if he had crossed time and space to see their faces.

"It's a pity that I didn't bring anything with me. Otherwise, I would have given them some congratulatory gifts. I wish the couple to have children soon. They must have a few more and increase their production to serve the country." He said half-jokingly.

This was a dream, not history. It was just a mirror image of history, so it didn't matter if he was a little reckless.

The bride escort team was already very close to the city gate, and the suona hands were blowing more vigorously. The leaders of the bride escort team dusted off the dust on their bodies and led the bride escort team forward to meet.

Just as the two sides were about to meet, butterflies suddenly flew up from the forest and grass on both sides of the road. They were of different shapes and colors, including some extremely rare species or species that had been extinct in modern society.

The bride-escorting team, the bride-welcoming team, and the onlookers were all stunned. The suona hands stopped playing and looked at this amazing scene in a daze.

"Miss! Miss! Quickly look! An auspicious sign! This is a rare auspicious sign!"

The maidservants patted the palanquin excitedly, and the curtain of the palanquin was pulled open. The bride in the palanquin lifted her veil slightly and looked at the colorful butterflies in surprise.

At this time, a huge butterfly as big as a sunflower fluttered its wings and flew toward the carriage. The other butterflies made way for it as if it was the king of butterflies.

The bride unconsciously reached out a fair hand from the window of the sedan, wearing a glistening jade bracelet on her wrist.

The giant butterfly landed on her wrist, and the face under her veil was reflected in its countless eyes. A moment later, it flew up again, circled a few times on the top of the palanquin, and flew away.

The other butterflies followed it, like a colorful cloud, floating in the direction of Misty Mountain.

It wasn't until the butterfly had flown far away that everyone present regained their senses. The way they looked at the palanquin was completely different now. It was as if they were looking at a God. A few of the old and young even knelt down in front of the palanquin and mumbled to themselves.

If it had been a few years earlier, perhaps the county Magistrate would have opposed this marriage and sent the bride to the palace to present to the Emperor, becoming his ladder to promotion and wealth.

Fortunately, the Qing Dynasty had already fallen.

"Look! Those butterflies are flying around the mountain, don't they look like a cloud of colorful fog?"

"I'm afraid there's an old immortal living on the top of the mountain?"

Wu Mancheng, who was at the front of the bridal party, pulled a local and asked,""May I ask, what's the name of that mountain?"

"It doesn't have a name. It's usually called West Mountain in the local area." The local waved his hands."There's always white fog on the mountainside, so we can't see the top of the mountain. Today, we finally saw it, but it's covered by these butterflies ..."

Wu Mancheng was naturally happy that his precious daughter had encountered such a rare auspicious omen on her wedding day. Just to see this scene made his trip not in vain. "Why don't we call it Misty Mountain then?" he smiled as he stroked his beard.

The auspicious omen was obviously for the bride. No one present dared to object to the bride's father's words, so they all agreed,""Good name! Good name! It'll be called Misty Mountain!"

The head of the bridal team did not dare to be negligent. Later, he joined forces with the local gentry and Noble families to jointly submit a petition to the local government, requesting to name the barren mountain as the hidden Fog Mountain.

The overwhelming number of butterflies covered the entire mountaintop, dancing around it. Zhang Zian felt like he was in the eye of a storm made up of butterflies.

"Thank you, this gift is very good." He said.

Zhuang Xiaodie looked at him sideways,"do you think I asked the butterflies to go?"

Zhang Zian was surprised again."No?"

He thought that she had sent these butterflies to form this strange scene as a congratulatory gift because he had just mentioned sending a congratulatory gift. But from her tone, could it be that this strange scene had really happened in history?

He suddenly thought of a problem. The insect disaster in Binhai city was caused by caterpillars, which included many rare caterpillars. These butterflies were also developed from the abnormal development of caterpillars, and there were many rare butterflies among them.

Could it be that the insect disaster had been a hidden danger since a hundred years ago?

What's more, if this was done by Zhuang Xiaodie, why should she please him because of his words? Did he have such a big face?

This kind of strange scene had really happened in history, and Zhuang Xiaodie had taken the initiative to flatter him. Which of the two was more likely to happen? the answer was self-evident.

It turned out that he was overthinking things again. He rolled his eyes gloomily.

The butterflies were probably tired from flying, so they landed on the lawn on the top of the mountain to rest. They dried their wings under the sun, making the top of the mountain look like a paradise.

"The show is over, now it's time to talk about serious matters." Zhuang Xiaodie seemed to have lost interest in the bridal team. She turned to face him and stretched out two Jade fingers,"I want to ask you two questions, and I hope you can answer them truthfully."

"You'll let me go if I answer your questions?" Zhang Zian asked, as if he was grasping at a life-saving straw.

Zhuang Xiaodie didn't deny it,"it depends on whether your answer can satisfy me."

He sighed. He had hated these kinds of subjective questions since he was a student, but he had no choice.

"Then ask away."
