166 Putting lanterns to highlight accidents
Temptation? or direct questioning?
Xu Zhuqing was entangled on the side, but Shen Junchun, the second son of the Shen family, who is said to be the most true legend of Shen Jitang, did not change from beginning to end, followed his sister Shen Junqian's side, concentrating on protecting him from being crowded by the crowd, and from time to time he also helped guess a few lantern riddles, looking like a good brother.
All the way from Quanfulou to the Qinhuai River, the Qinhuai River on the day of the Lantern Festival is different, both sides are hung with lanterns, all the boats on the river are also hung with lanterns, and the two sides of the Qinhuai River are reflected as if it were day.
Most of the boats in the Qinhuai River are painting boats, these painting boats were originally exquisite and gorgeous, and now they are reflected by the lights on both sides of the river, coupled with the music of the piano or Xiao or pipa from the painting boat, and the singing voice of the Qinhuai singer Wu Ruan, Looking at the boats that do not look like the world, it seems that a fairyland somewhere in the sky is projected to the world at this moment.
"It's really the Qinhuai River that 'dissolves the years in the sound of the boat, and the Ambilight is more brilliant'!" Xu Zhuqing temporarily got out of his tangled mood, and was shocked by the beauty of the Qinhuai River. Although he had been in Jinling for several years, this was the first time he had seen the Qinhuai River on the night of the Lantern Festival.
Although the night view of the Qinhuai River on weekdays is also beautiful, compared with the night of the Lantern Festival, it is really a small thing, and it is unimaginable that you have not seen it.
Shen Junchun, who was in front of Xu Zhuqing, turned around and said, "It's really brilliant, speaking of which, it's the first time Zhuqing has seen the Qinhuai River on the night of the Lantern Festival, right?"
Shen Junqian heard the two of them talking, and also stopped and looked back curiously.
Xu Zhuqing replied with a smile: "Yes, the first time, I've heard people say it before, but I don't see it and I always feel nothing, the night view of the Qinhuai River is not unseen, I think the Lantern Festival is probably more brilliant than usual, and I really saw it before I knew that I was too self-righteous and shallow." ”
Shen Junqian shook the rock sugar gourd in his hand disapprovingly, "No, it's not self-righteous and shallow-eyed, it's not wrong, isn't it just that the Qinhuai River on the night of the Lantern Festival has more lanterns than usual, so it's brighter, and it is natural to knock on it." In fact, I prefer the Qinhuai River in ordinary days, there is a deep night as the background to show the beauty of those lights, today, but it is too bright, only those lights are flashing, less charm. ”
Shen Junqian's words made Xu Zhuqing and Shen Junchun both stunned, and then Xu Zhuqing said with a smile: "Originally, there was still some sighing in my heart, but when Sister Qian said this, it seemed that I was a layman." ”
"It seems that it's not just you, I'm afraid I'm also a layman, but my sister does have some truth when you think about it carefully. Shen Junchun smiled and turned his head to Shen Junqian who was standing beside him and asked, "Okay, with our two laymen as followers, let's say you still want to go there, we all sacrifice our lives to accompany the gentleman." ”
Jinling's Lantern Festival Lantern Market Shen Junqian is not the first time to visit, there is roughly something fun, good-looking and delicious, she has basically visited in the past few years, Shen Junqian thought about it, looked back at the lantern that the person was holding in his hand just guessed the lantern riddle, and then looked back at Xu Zhuqing, his eyes were burning and he didn't know what to think of and said with a smile, "Why don't you go and put the lantern and make a wish, Cousin Xu must not have let go of the lantern yet, just go and try it?"
Shen Junchun nodded and said to Xu Zhuqing, "If Zhuqing hasn't let go of the lanterns, you can try it, although the matter of putting the lanterns looks like a daughter's family, but in Jinling, the lanterns on the day of the Lantern Festival have always been enthusiastic about putting them on all genders, men and women, young and old.
"I used to accompany my sister in Wenzhou to let go, but I never let go. Hearing you say that, I'd love to see it. After speaking, he smiled at Shen Junqian, "With Sister Lao Qian leading the way, let's go!"
Shen Junqian smiled, "Okay." ”
At that moment, the three of them took Shen Junqian as the first and walked all the way to the place where the lanterns were placed.
The Qinhuai River is a river that passes through the city, and some people will put lanterns from time to time. If it is placed in the upper reaches of the river, it is not a big problem on weekdays, but during the Lantern Festival, it is easy to block the river when there are too many lanterns, and even too many lanterns may cause a fire if you are not careful.
In the end, the government and the people of Jinling changed the place where the lanterns were placed in a wider place in the middle and lower reaches of the Qinhuai River after consultation.
Originally, the lanterns were placed on both sides of the river, but later a wealthy businessman funded the construction of a Guanyin temple near the lanterns, and slowly the people of Jinling became accustomed to putting lanterns on the bank of the river near the Guanyin Temple.
In addition to putting lanterns, the Lantern Festival custom of Jinling also has "walking the bridge", also known as "walking a hundred diseases" and "removing a hundred diseases".
The habit of "walking the bridge" of the people of Jinling is not necessarily to cross the bridge, but since the completion of the Guanyin Temple, because there is a bridge in front of the Guanyin Temple, I don't know when there is a lantern in the upper reaches of the bridge, and then walk across the bridge before the lantern has not passed through the bridge hole, complete the bridge walking ceremony, and the rumor that all diseases will be dissipated in a year.
As a result, the bridge in front of the Guanyin Temple has not only become a bridge that must be walked by those who put lanterns, but also those who do not put lanterns will also walk on the bridge. Therefore, there are a lot of people in the neighborhood, not only those who put lanterns, but also people who come to walk the bridge, and there are even many hawkers who set up stalls here.
When Shen Junqian and the three of them took their subordinates over, there was already an ancient traffic jam on the bridge. The crowd on the bridge split into two directions, one passing and the other moving slowly.
And the place where the lanterns are placed is just opposite to the three of Shen Junqian's stands, and they can only cross the bridge if they want to go over, but the people on this bridge ...... That's too much!
Looking at the crowd on the bridge that was moving slower than a turtle, and then looking at the crowd of people placing lanterns on the other side, Shen Junqian and the three couldn't help but look at each other.
Shen Junchun hugged his chest with one hand and touched his chin with the other, glanced at the crowd, and couldn't help but ask hesitantly: "It seems that there are a lot of people this year!
Xu Zhuqing also frowned and stared at the crowd, and glanced at Shen Junqian uncertainly: "Go?" or not?"
When Shen Junqian saw the crowd on the bridge, he was happy, and he wanted to be different from Shen Junchun: Yo! Isn't this the feeling of queuing up to enter the scenic spot in the previous life.
Therefore, Shen Junqian not only did not have the mentality of retreating, but was also a little eager to try, "Go ahead, let's go, just spend more time, and don't worry too much, Cousin Xu is in Jinling for the Lantern Festival, how sorry it is not to feel the lanterns once!"
Shen Junchun couldn't help but squint and stared at Xu Zhuqing silently, Xu Zhuqing could only shrug at him with a wry smile and said that he was actually very innocent, and he really didn't regret that he couldn't put the lanterns!
After having been friends with Xu Zhuqing for so many years, Shen Junchun didn't understand what he meant, sighed secretly in his heart, and just wanted to try to persuade him, but Shen Junqian was faster than him, and he had already run over and hugged his hand and shook it.
In the crowded crowd, being coquetted by his baby sister dangling her arms, Shen Junchun felt that a lot of eyes floated from the crowd, and he was defeated after a while.
Considering that there were a little more people brought, it was too troublesome for so many people to cross the bridge, and the three of them discussed for a while and decided to take only two people and Shen Junchun and Xu Zhuqing to protect Shen Junqian from front to back, left and right, and everyone else stayed here and waited.
So it took a group of five people nearly a stick of incense to walk from the bridge to the opposite side, and after putting out the lanterns, they walked around the Guanyin Temple a little, and decided to go back.
I thought that there would be fewer people on the bridge after walking around for a while, but I didn't expect that not only would there be no less, but it seemed to have increased. Originally, the queue was only a little to the bridge, but now there are queues on both sides of the bridge. There was no way, and several people could only surround Shen Junqian in the middle again and move slowly on the bridge.
Shen Junqian, who was staring at the crowd in front of him, suddenly found a light shining on his face, and couldn't help but look back, it was actually a firelight rising from the place where the lanterns were placed, and there was originally a towering Guanyin lantern in that place, so many of the lanterns that had not yet been placed were placed near the Guanyin lantern.
The light of the fire first appeared in the group of lanterns piled up in the Guanyin lanterns, but the materials made of the lanterns were extremely flammable
, but in an instant, all the lanterns that touched one place, including the Guanyin lantern, were also ignited, and the fire also jumped up more than two meters in an instant.
"Fire ...... It's on fire!"
"It's on fire! It's on fire!"
"Run, the lanterns are burning!"
"Run...... Run ......"
......
From the discovery of the fire to the panic of the crowd in just a few breaths, Shen Junchun and Xu Zhuqing reacted quickly, and immediately grabbed one of Shen Junqian's arms when they found out that the fire was on fire, and before they could grasp the crowd, they had already moved.
At first, Shen Junchun and Xu Zhuqing could still catch Shen Junqian well, but after a while, there was a pop sound on the bridge, and then someone was heard shouting "Someone has fallen into the water", Shen Junchun turned his head to look, and those who caught Shen Junqian were squeezed away by the crowd. Looking back, I saw that I had lost the figures of Shen Junqian and Xu Zhuqing.
However, Xu Zhuqing was not much better, Shen Junchun's hand was rushed away, and he and Shen Junqian were rushed forward by the crowd, and barely steadied themselves and walked forward along the flow of people, but as soon as they arrived at the bridge, the flow of people began to walk in both directions, and the two of them were washed away in an instant.
Xu Zhuqing immediately wanted to turn back to find Shen Junqian, but when he turned around, he only saw the crowd that spread out in all directions after getting off the bridge, and he was coerced by the crowd and getting farther and farther away from the position of the bridge.
Where can I still see Shen Junqian's figure at this time, Xu Zhuqing's heart was suddenly a little anxious, but nothing must happen!
Xu Zhuqing turned around and tried to squeeze against the crowd in the direction of the bridgehead, he remembered that Shen Junqian had been squeezed in another direction just now.
After trying hard for a while and finding that it was completely useless, Xu Zhuqing forced himself to calm down, and at the same time tried to squeeze from the crowd to the edge of the crowd in the direction of the flow of people.
