CHAPTER XXXIX
"Lazy pig, get up! Aren't you going to participate in the event at night? β
"Ah......" Pang Ruolan sat up in a daze, and when she opened her eyes, she saw the big face of the dark cloud, "Ahhhh You're so close, it scares the hell out of me! β
Pang Ruolan pushed away the teasing face of the dark clouds, stretched her waist, said hello to Xuantian after freshening up, and went out.
"The music is OK, the costumes are OK, the scenes and props haven't been set up yet...... In order to win by surprise, I will arrange it after the round altar event in the afternoon. Pang Ruolan muttered to herself as she walked towards the cloth shop.
After taking her clothes, Pang Ruolan came to the masonry on the side of the street to give advice, and walked towards the peach forest in the suburbs.
ββ¦β¦ Call. Pang Ruolan swirled lightly, where she passed, her sleeves were pulled over the petals, and the peach blossoms were flying in the sky, Pang Ruolan waved her arms together, shooting out peach blossom pieces, hitting the peach branches, and the peach blossom petals were instantly shocked and floated to the ground. In the sea of flowers, Pang Ruolan smiled brightly and her clothes fluttered.
A person flashed out of the "......" tree, with flowing colorful clothes, picturesque eyebrows, and a light veil on his face, who was the mysterious pavilion master.
"Ahh Yes, is that you? Pang Ruolan stopped and ran to him, "Are you here to find Youlan?" After a pause, he said, "That day, Lingshui Palace was in prison to save me...... It's you, right? You know who I am, right? β
"......" The boy in colorful clothes didn't answer, looked at the peach blossoms all over the ground, turned his head and smiled at Pang Ruolan: "I guess, you have a request for me." β
"Oh, yes! You couldn't have come just in time! Please, can you help me collect the peach blossoms together? We'll be able to collect it in a few hours, right? The words of the boy in colorful clothes successfully diverted Pang Ruolan's attention.
"Heh, sit down." As soon as the boy in the colorful clothes flicked his sleeves, Pang Ruolan only felt a strong wind sweeping through her body, and instantly sat on the branch of the peach tree.
"Ahh Pang Ruolan looked at the boy in colorful clothes standing on the ground in disbelief, firmly grasped the trunk of the tree beside him with both hands, and sat firmly on the branch, feeling slightly apprehensive in her heart.
I saw the boy in color move his footsteps lightly, his figure was illusory, his clothes were fluttering, his arms were from the outside to the inside, he waved his arms repeatedly, and his sleeves brought up a whirlwind around him, and the whirlwind dispersed with the sleeves, and he concentrated and concentrated, so circulating, the peach blossom petals everywhere accompanied by the wind, flying in the wind, suddenly gathering, suddenly drifting, beautiful.
"Wow, hey, hey." Pang Ruolan tilted her head and watched the boy in colorful clothes spinning in the peach forest, his feet swinging back and forth, and her heart was full: The scene that could only be seen with special effects actually appeared in front of me like this, am I dreaming......
"Really...... Dancing like a frightening dragon, graceful like a dragon......" Pang Ruolan's gaze was firmly attracted by the person dancing under the tree, and she couldn't help muttering.
"Ahh Just thinking about it, being swept away by a powerful internal force, Pang Ruolan was dizzy, and when she opened her eyes, she only saw a bunch of peach blossom petals like a hill in front of her, and there were many of them.
turned his head, but found that the boy in colorful clothes had gone away, and in the sunshine, his figure was like a dream.
"He still doesn't want to answer my question, he's walking so fast......" Pang Ruolan muttered to herself as she took off her coat and collected her petals.
After wrapping the petals, Pang Ruolan carried her back behind her and walked towards the town.
As soon as she walked into the town, Pang Ruolan was stopped by a person, "Hey, do you want this?" This is a baby! Look at this style is rare, the best snuff bottle. β
"......" Pang Ruolan looked at the man, the woman's wheat-colored skin looked very healthy, her jet-black hair was draped vertically over her shoulders like a waterfall, her eyebrows were light, her eyes were nervous, and her face was slightly red. Xinfu: This woman is so familiar......
"How? Do you want? The woman was promoting her snuff box hard.
Pang Ruolan suddenly remembered that there was a Xiao Si in the Youfu who looked quite similar to her, so she asked, "How much?" β
"I met you today, and it was also fate, this one was sold! 10 taels! The woman smiled flatteringly.
"So expensive? I don't want it! Pang Ruolan smiled and turned around to leave.
"Hey! Miss stay! IβCan you make an offer? The woman said urgently.
"Five taels." Pang Ruolan Xinfu: Looking at this woman's demeanor, this snuffbox must be of unknown origin.
"Okay...... It's time to make a friend. The woman took the money and hurried away.
Pang Ruolan followed closely, avoiding a person, passing through alleys, and finally stopping at an intersection and hiding behind a big tree.
Just listen to "squeak." There was a knock at the door, and the woman dodged into the room.
Pang Ruolan quietly followed, her head against the wooden door, and listened to the sound inside.
"Ahem, ahem." An old voice coughed incessantly.
"Father, since your mother is gone, your body is getting worse day by day, Mo'er is rich, and you can live a good life!" The woman patted the old man's back with her hand and helped the old man smooth out.
"Alas, your mother left early, and it's a pity that you have suffered with me since you were a child." The old man's voice sounded in the room, and there was a slight hoarse voice in his breathing.
"Mo'er is not bitter, father, Mo'er was appreciated by Miss Youlan in Youfu, and this month Mo'er was rewarded with extra money, which is 5 taels of silver, we can live well for a while, wait a few days, Youfu will have some rewards, and then Mo'er will take his father to see a doctor."
"Ahem, ahem......" The sound of the old man coughing kept coming from the house, and Pang Ruolan flashed away.
"......" walked on the street, Pang Ruolan paid in her heart: Youfu has a lot more money per month than 5 taels, after all, this is arranged by the empress and her mother, but listening to the conversation in the house just now, it seems that 5 taels of silver is a huge amount of money for them......
Thinking so, Pang Ruolan came to the vicinity of the altar, the sun was setting, the crowd was sparse, but there were also some waiting for the good show of the evening, eating, drinking and laughing in the nearby restaurant.
After waiting for a while, some masons came, and brought some huge black curtains as promised, "Now find some long poles, set them up at the four corners of the altar, and enclose the whole altar with black cloth, and light candles in it, and put two red candles on at least half a meter." β
Pang Ruolan instructed back and forth: "Use tiles to surround the altar, and then block it with gravel, the three of you go to fetch a few buckets of water, and the two of you go to set up candles, pay attention for a while, don't be flooded by water, pay attention to fixing the candles on the tiles." β
"Hey, go and spread these petals on the black yarn, are they the length you agreed yesterday? At least 100 meters long and wide. Pang Ruolan took the dress ordered from the cloth shop, found a place where no one was, secretly changed it, and covered it with a black gown.
"Haha, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed." Pang Ruolan looked left and right, and saw a man covered in green yarn, walking with another man holding a guzheng, and hurriedly greeted him.
"Please, Lady Coldwind, Orchid is grateful." Pang Ruolan grinned, "You will sit on the tree in a while, I will tie a chair to the trunk of the tree, and I will find someone to put it on the trunk for you in a while." Seeing Leng Feng's cold eyes, Pang Ruolan added with a smile: "Please!" There will be no danger, I've got it all arranged! Hey. β
ββ¦β¦ For the sake of hot tea, Leng Feng is willing to give it a try. Leng Feng smiled helplessly, and according to Pang Ruolan's arrangement, he climbed the ladder and sat on the chair tied to the tree trunk.
After setting up the guzheng, Pang Ruolan was very happy, "Look at my gesture for a while, take the peach blossom as the number!" β
ββ¦β¦ Good. "The cold wind strokes the harp with both hands, waiting, it is summer, the leaves are luxuriant, the breeze blows, and the cold wind seems to hide in the trees.
"Why haven't Brother Xuantian and Sister Shenyun come yet?" Pang Ruolan was muttering to herself, when she was suddenly startled by a pat, "What? Are you ready? Zhuo Sheng smiled coquettishly.
"Oh, it's coming." Pang Ruolan wanted to walk away but was blocked by Zhuo Shang, "What? Are you hiding from me? Are you going to find your Xuantian brother? Haha, it's all a fool anyway, don't worry! He'll be here to see your 'extraordinary dancing skills' in a moment! β
"Haha!"
"That's it! What's the hurry, you! β
"Hahaha!"
All the women surrounded Pang Ruolan and laughed, all with disdainful expressions on their faces.
"You!" Pang Ruolan was pulled by the sleeve of one of the women, "What are you!" Who in the Imperial City doesn't know us? If you offend Zhuo Shang, you will offend several mansions in our imperial city! Waiting to make a fool of you! β
"That's it! Sister Shui Wei is right! If you offend us, you will have a good time after you! One of the women in yellow laughed.
"May I ask why I have offended you? Zhuo Shang, it seems that we just met yesterday, right? Pang Ruolan smiled helplessly.
"Humph! Your Xuantian brother protects you, so you offended me! Zhuo Sheng snorted coldly.
ββ¦β¦ Alas, some women are so jealous! Pang Ruolan pulled out the sleeve of her shirt that was grabbed by the woman, shook her head and walked away.
"You come back to me! I didn't let you go! If I don't speak, you're not qualified to leave! Zhuo Shang flew out of the folding fan, but was knocked to the ground by Xuantian's sleeves that happened to arrive.
