Chapter 41: It's a Sugar Gourd!
Wang Shang's words can be described as righteousness.
Chen Changsheng also smiled, and then said:
"In that case, let's go and see if we can get to Tianyun County City quickly. ”
The three of them nodded, and after walking forward for a while, their vision suddenly opened up, and the front brightened.
"I'm scared to death, it's so depressing inside. ”
Walking out of the cave, Wang Shang glanced back and patted his chest.
"Hmph, timid as a mouse. The girl snorted coldly.
Chen Changsheng looked around, and after walking out of the cave, he and the others had indeed gotten rid of the iron cavalry blockade for at least ten miles.
Now they are afraid that they think that they are still in the circle, but they don't know that they have already run out.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng was in a good mood, and the four of them rushed to Tianyun County before it was dark.
Tianyun County is the capital of a county, and it is not comparable to the city of open doors.
Chen Changsheng glanced outside, and felt that what his sister said was true.
The buildings in the mundane world are indeed much more magnificent than those in the mountain gate, and even the ancient city in my memory is not like this.
At this time, the sky had already darkened, but Tianyun County was still brightly lit.
Big red lanterns are hung in the corner towers everywhere, and people come and go at the city gate, and the noise is not endless, as if there is no night fasting.
Chen Changsheng and the others hid in a forest far away, and when they saw this scene, the girl laughed happily, and her face was as pretty as a flower.
"Brother, I'll just say it, it's fun under the mountain. ”
Wu Wei added at the right time: "Immortal Master, I forgot to say that today is the Tianyun Festival. ”
"Tianyun Festival?" Chen Changsheng turned his head, "What kind of festival is this?"
"A local festival in Tianyun County, similar to the Qianyuan Festival, but the scale is not as large as that of Kyoto, but it is also extremely lively. ”
Wu Wei said with a smile, although he was on the run, he was also happy.
Chen Changsheng nodded, and the girl was even happier when she heard this, and shouted to go in and have a look.
Wang Shang's stomach screamed even more.
"Changsheng, let's go in and eat something earlier, I'm dying of hunger. ”
Chen Changsheng also smiled slightly, and his tired heart relaxed slightly.
"Fat Wang, it still depends on your disguise method. ”
Wang Shang nodded, smiled, and assured on his chest.
After a while, the four of them walked out of the woods and looked at the brightly lit Tianyun County City in the distance.
"Captain Wu, what kind of gold and silver is okay, right?"
Chen Changsheng's originally delicate face became ordinary at the moment.
The figure was also raised, looking thin, dressed in white, and inexplicably a bit of a literati.
"This immortal master can rest assured, there are still some soft ones. ”
Wu Wei, who was questioned, nodded, his body was bloated, his eyes were very tired, and there was still a feeling of eagle eyes.
Chen Ling'er was disguised by Wang Shang into a beautiful girl, looking gentle and lovely, with a slight powder on her face, and the clothes on her body were also changed into long skirts.
The three of them were like this, and Wang Shang nodded with satisfaction.
"What a genius I'm in!"
Wang Shangyi, who was also dressed in white, with a tall figure and an extraordinary appearance, waved the paper fan in his hand and laughed cheaply.
Glancing at Wang Shang, Chen Changsheng smiled coldly, Wang Shang didn't dare to speak.
"Changsheng, why don't I make you as handsome as I am?"
"Forget it, let's go into the city. Chen Changsheng said, sneering at Wang Shang's words.
If you really do what Wang Fatzi just thought, make the four of you like immortals.
At that time, even if you are at the city gate, if you are not caught by the sea fishing documents, it is estimated that you will have to be suspicious, and then you will have to be extremely troublesome.
Too lazy to take care of Wang Shang, Chen Changsheng, who looked like a poor scholar, walked at the forefront.
Wu Wei followed him, and somehow found a basket with some cabbage in it.
Chen Ling'er followed behind the two, and Wang Shang was even farther away.
The four of them went in three batches to avoid any problems.
Because it was dark, many people who rushed into the city did not notice the four of them, and they had been talking about the Tianyun Festival in full swing.
Chen Changsheng glanced at the city gate, there was a group of soldiers constantly checking, and many portraits were posted in the city wall.
Chen Changsheng even saw the four of himself in it.
"Captain Wu, are these officers and soldiers strictly checked?"
Glancing at the people around him, Chen Changsheng asked in a low voice.
Wu Wei also said in a low voice: "Immortal Master, it is the Tianyun Festival, and it is not strict, otherwise many people are afraid that they will not be able to enter." ”
nodded, and after another moment, all the people in front of him had already entered the city, and Chen Changsheng walked over.
"Stop. The officers and soldiers stopped Chen Changsheng.
The armor on their bodies is slightly different from that of Kaimu City, and they do not have face armor.
The officer and soldier had a knife at his waist, and after glancing at Chen Changsheng up and down, he looked at Wu Wei behind him.
"Two together?" He asked.
Chen Changsheng was a little nervous in his heart, and after nodding, he showed an expectant expression: "Yes, master, come to the county town today to see the excitement." ”
"What's your relationship with him?" The officer and soldier pointed to Wu Wei in the rear and asked.
Chen Changsheng glanced at it and said with a smile: "Master, this is my uncle, go to the city to sell some vegetables and fruits." ”
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng pointed to the cabbage in the basket.
When the officers and soldiers heard this, their brows immediately furrowed.
"It's already nightfall, what kind of fruits and vegetables are you selling in the city?"
The officer and soldier spoke, faintly suspicious.
Chen Changsheng's heart tightened, and he realized that he had leaked his words.
It's just that at this moment, Wu Wei said with a smile:
"Master, I didn't look at today's Tianyun Festival, the vegetables and fruits in the city must be in short supply, so I thought about sitting on the ground and starting the price, greedy for a little cheap. ”
The officer frowned slightly, thought for a while, and nodded.
"You're not right-minded. ”
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the sea fishing book, and after looking at the two of them, he nodded.
"Pay the money, let's get in!"
He waved his hand, and the rear gave way to a path.
Chen Changsheng nodded hurriedly, and after handing over the money and Wu Wei entered the city, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the rear.
I am very worried about my sister, the key is that Wang Shang's guy is exposed.
It's just that Chen Changsheng was very surprised that the officer and soldier just asked the girl a question and then let him go into the city.
Wang Shang was the same, and even he showed a hint of arrogance, and soon entered the city.
Chen Changsheng watched the two enter the city, and he was secretly speechless in his heart.
I didn't expect the dog to look down on people, and he actually found himself.
Glancing at Wang Shang fiercely, Chen Changsheng looked at the city.
I didn't enter Kaimu City, I don't know what is going on in Kaimu City, but when it comes to Tianyun County City, Chen Changsheng really sighed a little.
The post road alone is ten zhang wide, paved with bluestone, and can accommodate a number of carriages in parallel.
And on the wide post road, hundreds of people come and go, and they are proud.
On both sides of the post road, there are countless paving and shops, and even there are many cart craftsmen.
The city is full of red lanterns, and it looks so lively.
Chen Changsheng was surprised, but the girl was very happy, pointing to a small stall on the side of the road and said:
"Brother, I want to eat sugar gourd!"
His sister's words made Chen Changsheng sigh, saw that no one was paying attention around him, and whispered:
"Ling'er, pay attention to your current identity, you are a lady in the outer city. ”
Chen Changsheng's words made Chen Ling'er quickly hold back his smile.
"Okay brother. The girl nodded.
Chen Changsheng couldn't deny it, and looked at Wang Shang again.
"Your identity is a rich son, and you have followed Ling'er all the way, you know?"
"It's an honor to be a follower of Ling'er, you say it's Ling'er?"
Wang Shang nodded hurriedly, smiling cheaply, making the girl want to slap him to death.
"If you really have an idea, I'll help you castrate. Chen Changsheng warned Wang Shang, and then looked at Wu Wei.
"Captain Wu, you are now a citizen outside the city, just go into the city to have a look. ”
Wu Wei nodded, and in the puzzled eyes of the three of them, Chen Changsheng said to himself.
"As for me, I am a scholar who has gained fame, but dismisses it, and instead travels through the mountains and rivers. ”
Chen Changsheng said calmly, his face was not red, and his heart was not beating.
When the girl heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.
Wang Shang showed a look of disdain.
"Changsheng, others don't know, I don't know about you?
Wang Shang disdained, but Wu Wei complimented him.
"I think the immortal master has the air of a literati. ”
Chen Changsheng was very useful to say this, and after nodding, he said, "Then let's find a place to stay." ”
After speaking, Chen Changsheng was about to leave, but Chen Ling'er spoke up.
"Brother, aren't we going out to have fun?"
"Playing?" Chen Changsheng hesitated for a moment and wanted to refuse.
Seeing his sister's pitiful expression, he had no choice but to nod.
"Yes, but not too long, at most an hour to go back. ”
"Uh-huh, good!"
With Chen Changsheng's consent, Chen Ling'er became cheerful and ran to the small stall selling sugar gourds on the side of the road.
"Old man, come to four strings of sugar gourds!"
Chen Ling'er pointed to the red sugar gourd on the straw, staring straight at it.
The stall was guarded by an old man, and when he saw Chen Changsheng and the four of them coming, he smiled and said, "But the four guest officers?"
Chen Changsheng nodded: "Come to four strings." ”
Then he will pay.
However, Wu Wei had already stopped it first.
"Immortals, nephews, during the Tianyun Festival, all the shops that open do not need to pay, just guess the right lantern riddles and take them away, guess wrong, give money and do not sell. ”
After Wu Wei struggled with the salutation, he said apprehensively.
Chen Changsheng didn't pay attention to these details, and nodded in some surprise.
"Shopkeeper, but that's it?"
"Yes. The old man smiled even more happily, and laid out a wooden sign covered with yellow paper with lantern riddles written on it.
"Guys, if you guess one correctly, you can take a bunch of sugar gourds with you. ”
The old man looked at Chen Changsheng with a smile, obviously believing that Chen Changsheng was a poor scholar.
Chen Changsheng nodded, casually swept one of the riddles, and his face became strange.
"It's not round or square, it's hidden in the middle of your mouth, and if you want to know what it tastes like, please taste it." ”
Chen Changsheng: ???
Doesn't it make it clear that it's the tongue? Lantern riddles will ...... How do you feel a little mentally retarded?
Laughing inwardly, Chen Changsheng just wanted to speak, but Chen Ling'er was already the first to speak: "This is a sugar gourd!"
