Chapter 6: The White Jade Plate (I)

"Where are we going?"

The sound coming from the carriage was slightly misty, like a bean paste bun that had just come out of the pot, soft and sweet. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Western Jin Dynasty to the west."

In the carriage, Guan Yi pulled Zong Jiming's sleeve and rubbed his little face, trying to make himself sober.

Seeing the little man in his arms with a red face, Zong Jiming had no choice but to pull back his sleeves, pick up the handkerchief on the low table, and wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes for her.

"What's the matter, you're still sleepy after sleeping all afternoon?"

Guan Yiyi has been yawning and shedding tears since he opened his eyes, and he can't stop.

"Yes, I was chased by a monster all afternoon in my dream, and I was tired to death."

Hanging his head and rubbing his eyes with his hands, he was a little sober.

"By the way, what are we going to do that far?"

Guan Yiyi suddenly raised his head, and Zong Jiming, who rested his chin on her head, couldn't stand the sudden force, and the whole person fell backwards.

Leaning on the carriage, Zong Jiming sighed and said, "There is a full moon town west of the Western Jin Dynasty, this time we will go there." ”

"What are you going to do there? Looking at the moon? He poured himself a cup of tea and drank it in a big gulp to suppress the discomfort of riding in the carriage for many days.

"yes."

Zong Jiming looked at the movements of his little wife, a little distressed, they have been walking on the mountain path for many days, there is not even a farm nearby, and the three of them have to work in the carriage every day, the most pitiful is him, obviously newly married, the meat is in his mouth, but he can't eat anything.

"How far is it from this?"

She put down her cup and turned her head to look at the person holding her.

"Madam, it's about half a day before we get to Full Moon Town."

The dark one who has been driving the car is miserable, watching and listening to the master and his wife flirt along the way, but he still has to catch the car, and there is nowhere to hide.

"You can rest a little longer, and you'll be there in the evening."

Guan Yi, who had eaten all the dry food, smacked his lips one by one, "I want to eat meat, I want to eat fish, I want to eat osmanthus cake......"

"Okay, good, the lady can give you whatever she wants to eat for her husband, and you can eat for your husband if you want."

As soon as he didn't dare to speak, he knew that his master would say this, so he could only speed up the car, hoping to get to Full Moon Town as soon as possible.

――

Full Moon Town, located in the mountains west of the Western Jin Dynasty, does not belong to any country, but is a small town with only a thousand people, and the people in the town are made at sunrise and rested at sunset.

"Childe, ma'am, it's here."

Dark One parked the carriage at the door of the inn, opened the door, and let the two get off.

It was already dark, the inn was closed, and there was still a hint of daytime heat in the air, which made people feel a little irritable.

"Childe, I'll knock on the door."

"Are you sure you can get the dark one to knock on the door?"

Guan Yiyi looked at the dark one who had already walked to the door of the inn, and sweated for the door, only to see the dark one sigh and wave his palm to the door, "Shopkeeper, open ......"

'Bang' The door of the inn fell in response, and the 'sixth door' was closed one by one in the bottom of his heart.

Xiao Er, who was guarding the door in the lobby, slept soundly, and suddenly heard a loud noise in his ears, and immediately jumped up from the ground to look around, and when he saw the door falling to the ground, he scolded, "Who?" Which immoral midnight watchman came to tear down the door of my inn? Don't die, don't you? ”

Darkly raised his hand and stood outside the gate embarrassedly, he didn't know why the gate outside was so uncontrollable, the gate of the sect family was ......, as if they had never asked him to open the door all this time.

Turning to look at the two people standing by the carriage watching the show, Dark One felt that he wanted to go back to the sect's house at the moment and spit out his bitterness to the head of the family.

"Did you tear down this gate?"

Xiao Er rushed out with a feather duster, and saw a tall man standing at the door of his inn, and he didn't turn around when he heard his question.

As the man's eyes looked, he found that there was a man and a woman standing not far away, and Xiao Er said angrily, "Okay, you guys, you don't sleep in the middle of the night to break down the door, what's wrong?" Still want to rob but can't succeed? Tell you, grandpa, I grew up in Shaolin Temple, if you know each other, hurry up, otherwise grandpa don't blame you. ”

Yu Guang saw the woman not far away laughing and bending over, and the man standing next to her was also smiling and wiping his tears.

"That, I'm really sorry, I broke the door of your house, how much is it, we will pay, we just want to come to stay, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, it's not good to blame me, I have a lot of hands."

took off the purse hanging from his waist and put it on the little second-hand, and the dark one was a little embarrassed.

"Staying? The lodging person didn't say it early, come in, I'll find someone to repair this door tomorrow morning. ”

Checking the purse in his hand, Xiao Er's heart blossomed, how long has no one come to this town? The shopkeeper sighed every day because he had no business, and he was afraid that if they didn't come tonight, he would roll up and leave tomorrow.

"How many rooms are there for the guest officer?"

Welcoming the three of them into the door, Xiao Er lit an oil lamp.

"Second son, what's wrong? What's the big night? ”

At the top of the stairs came a thin old man, squinting, apparently awakened from his sleep.

"Shopkeeper, just now this guest officer broke our door, no, they want to stay."

Xiao Er said to the old man with a smile, and there was uncontrollable happiness in his tone.

"Someone's staying overnight? Hey, please sit down, second son, tea. ”

"Okay."

The old man lifted his feet upstairs, and the stairs in disrepair seemed to be unable to bear the weight of the old man, making a 'creaking' sound.

"Where did the three come from? But lost? If you go any further, there will be no way. ”

The shopkeeper and the three of them sat at a table, and they couldn't understand why the three of them appeared in Full Moon Town in the middle of the night, and it was the August Festival in a few days, so they weren't in a hurry to go home and reunite with their families?

"Has the shopkeeper lived in this Full Moon Town for a long time?"

Guan Yiyi didn't reply, but asked rhetorically.

"yes, it's been a long time. How? The three of them also came to see the moon in Full Moon Town? ”

When he got lost in the mountains, he stumbled upon this town, and on August 15, the festival of nostalgia for his family, he stayed here and never went out again.

"The junior just heard that the moon in this full moon town is very interesting, so he brought his wife here."

Zong Jiming took the teapot brought by Xiao Er and poured a cup of tea for Guan Yiyi one by one.

"I didn't expect that the son also heard about the moon, and the old man stayed because of this incident."

The shopkeeper Chao Zong smiled brightly, and Guan Yi, who was sitting on the side, opened his eyes wide one by one, his eyes full of curiosity.

"What story? Why haven't I heard of it? ”

Looking at Guan Yiyi's stunned appearance, Zong Jiming and the shopkeeper laughed out loud, and Xiao Er, who was standing on the side, stepped forward and said, "The story of the full moon in Full Moon Town? I know I know, I grew up in Full Moon Town, and I can recite this story backwards. ”

Xiao Er's proud look made Guan Yiyi even more curious, put down the teacup and said, "You know? Tell me what the hell is going on. ”

Xiao Er propped up the table behind him with his hands, jumped slightly, and adjusted his sitting posture before speaking slowly:

"My mother told me, let me think about it, according to legend, the moon of this full moon town is ......"
