"Today's lantern festival, let's dock first! You also go up and play, and when the lotus flowers bloom in the evening, we will meet under the withered vines and willows! After eating, Ziyue began to arrange the Lantern Festival, but she wanted to see how the light spirit lake full of cold aura was surging with vitality and how to improve the cultivation of the monks.

"Good! Then we'll see you in the evening! "Several people are coming for the Bilian Lantern Festival, so there is no reason not to go to see the Lantern Festival. As soon as he received Ziyue's answer, he was like a wild horse on the loose, and he went to the shore with a smug sword, and he didn't wait for the ship to dock.

"Hey! It's really fast, let's go! Let's dock too! The lantern festival will not start until nightfall, and our family of three will have a good stroll! Ziyue shook her head and looked at the two big and one small who rushed towards the sword, and only Ziyue and Xuanyuan Yichen were left in the boat, relatively silent.

"Let's go! I'll go and dock the ship first! Xuanyuan Yichen took the initiative to drive the big ship, while Ziyue went to prepare the things needed for the night lantern festival, and the two of them did their own thing, and time passed in the blink of an eye.

When night falls, countless boats are moored on the Qingling Lake, and the low sound of silk and bamboo comes out, circulating above the lake. On the huge Qingling Lake, thousands of lights are lit, reflecting a red world. Between each big boat, there is a suspension bridge that wants to be connected, and the boats are crowded with people, and there are also those who sell lanterns and snacks.

As for this unique ship, it appeared automatically on the day of the Bilian Lantern Festival. Whenever these appeared, the people of the city began to get on the boats to prepare the things they were going to buy and sell, and the characteristic lantern market was formed.

As Ziyue and Xuanyuan Yichen drove the ship to the side of the big ships, an invisible energy covered the ship. Immediately, on the big ship connected to it, a suspension bridge connected Ziyue's big ship to the top. There is no one to control it, as if the power of nature between heaven and earth is flowing, condensing, like the law, as long as a ship approaches, it will be requisitioned by this strange energy.

"What a strange phenomenon, Yichen, do you see something?" The two leaned together. See this incredible scene with your own eyes. But I don't feel the reason at all.

"This should be the law on the Light Spirit Lake, this heaven and earth, as if they are isolated separately, but they are not completely isolated. It seems like a suspension bridge near the shore. You can go straight to these large ships that are connected together. Xuanyuan Yichen looked at it for a while. Tell me what I've fumbled.

"Well, no matter, now that the ship is connected. I'll just seal it! When the festival is over, it can be taken back. As he spoke, the big ship had been sealed, but since the hull was relatively large, the deck was quite large, and if you set up a stall on it, you could also set up some small stalls.

"Let's go!" Ziyue pulled Xuanyuan Yichen, and the two of them went to the downtown area.

Stepping on the suspension bridge, the two of them fluttered in white, and their outstanding demeanor formed a beautiful landscape, which made the people at the lantern festival frequently look sideways.

"Look, this is a lotus-shaped lantern, Yichen, let's buy one!" Ziyue held the lantern in her hand and looked at him with a wistful expression.

"Childe, you can buy one for Madame! This Bilian Lantern Festival! It is to buy a lotus lantern to ward off evil spirits, no, you see, everyone on it will carry a lotus lantern. It is rumored that the lotus lantern was once blessed by the river god, and as long as you carry the lotus lantern, you can keep yourself safe. So, for the sake of peace tonight, you can buy one for Madame! The old man who sold the lanterns persuaded, and Xuanyuan Yichen and Ziyue listened to the old man's words, and instantly thought of the scene of the hundred ghosts haunting that night, and they were all guessing whether he knew something.

"Old man, hearing you say that, will something bad happen to this lamp?" Ziyue spoke softly, and the old man listened quite comfortably, and was very satisfied with their attitude, so he told them what he knew.

"That's the case, this Bilian comes to the outside of the world, every time a cultivator absorbs those things that are advanced, in fact, they are all absorbed from ordinary people, and the lotus lantern on the ship is blessed, so that Bilian's vitality can pass, otherwise, he will be seriously ill after he goes back." The old man recalled the scene when ordinary people would get sick after each lantern festival, and he couldn't bear to worry in his heart. Fortunately, he found that the lanterns made from the paper on the ship could be avoided, otherwise more people would have had accidents.

"How do you know?"

"This is also what I learned by accident, that year, I was only ten years old, and I happened to encounter the lantern festival, and that morning, because I was hungry, I came out of the ruined temple, about to look for food, but I saw a large number of boats suddenly appear on the lake of Qingling, and each boat is connected together. Out of curiosity, I got on the boat first, and on the boat, I saw a row of words, which said, 'Congratulations on becoming the first person on the ship this year, this stepping paper will be given to you, which can ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters', and at that time, I sent the god to take the stepping paper back to the broken temple, because I was afraid of being discovered, so I did not go to the Lantern Festival. ”

"Later, I heard that many of the people who went to the Lantern Festival had accidents when they came back, and everyone was seriously ill. Since then, this lamp will be in the eyes of ordinary people, and it will be a place of evil. However, because the cultivation of some monks has increased greatly, more and more people know about the Lantern Festival. When I was 20 years old, I learned the craft of making lotus lanterns out of those papers. ”

"At the beginning, the lanterns I made were not beautiful, but I thought that the treadpaper had the effect of warding off evil spirits and disasters, so I wanted to try it to see if there was really such a miracle effect, so I ran to the big boat to sell lanterns, but who knows, because the lanterns are not beautiful, there are very few people who sell them, but the people who bought the lanterns that day did not have an accident, but the people who laughed at my lanterns were seriously ill." The old man smiled, remembering that those who looked down on him at the beginning thought it was funny, if they had listened to what they said at that time, nothing would have happened.

However, one thing that the old man did not know was that those who had a serious illness would be very weak every year during the Lantern Festival, and part of the life qi would be withdrawn. As a result, many people do not live for twenty years. Only a small number of blessed people have survived to the present day.

"But, according to you. Actually, you don't know that the paper of the lantern can really drive away evil spirits, right? Ziyue thought about it, listening to what he said, and didn't know why he was so sure?

"Yes, I really didn't know at the time, until I came to the third lantern festival, I was still making lotus lanterns to sell, but the paper was just ordinary paper, but. When I put those lanterns on this boat. A blue light suddenly shone down, and then, a blue lotus appeared on all my lanterns, and the person who bought my lanterns. But I didn't hear anyone who was sick or anything. And. Most people's health is getting better and better because of this. That's what I heard, and that's why I guessed. There are some evil sects in this Bilian Lantern Festival. ”

"I see. Okay, get me two! After Ziyue finished speaking, she saw that the pair of lotus lanterns hanging on the side looked a little strange, so she asked the old man to give them to her, "Boss, take those two for me!" ”

"Howler! Madam, these two lanterns are a pair, you and Gongzi are one for each person, but they are also very suitable for your temperament! The old man handed Ziyue the two turquoise lotus lanterns hanging in the corner, and after paying, the two walked away with the lanterns.

"Woe and blessing are relied upon, and blessing and misfortune are lurking! It's yours and will always be yours. After the old man finished speaking, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and then, the eyes full of wisdom instantly became cloudy.

"Huh! Strange, I just saw a couple in white coming this way? How could it be gone? The old man touched his head suspiciously, and went on to fiddle with the lanterns. Some of them put a pen to write a few sentences, while others used a pen to sketch a few flowers that they usually draw.

Ziyue and Xuanyuan Yichen carried the blue lotus lantern, and the faint blue light flickered out from the lantern, intersecting with the red lanterns around them. However, the two people who were walking around and watching did not notice the strange scene of the lantern in their hands.

"It's so lively! There weren't so many people just now, so why are there so many people all of a sudden? Looking at the crowded Lantern Festival, Ziyue muttered to herself, but then she thought that the Bilian Lantern Festival had attracted many people, and she was relieved again.

"Let's go! I just saw a pastry seller on the boat over there, let's go check it out! "Because of my greed, I saw a lot of people shouting around the pastry stalls, and I wanted to run over to try it.

"Yue'er, slow down!" Xuanyuan Yichen shook his head and looked at the figure running forward, and helplessly stepped up to follow. The blue lotus lantern emitted a faint light, and under the strange eyes of those people, Ziyue and Xuanyuan Yichen stepped on the lake on the other side and disappeared without a trace.

"Strange, how did those two white-clothed men and women disappear just now?" Both of them have always been very good, and at the Lantern Festival, they naturally attracted much attention. As a result, they stepped on the surface of the lake and disappeared, attracting the attention of those around them.

"What do you say? Who's missing? Ruo'er held Yanbao's hand, and the two of them ate with relish with a string of sugar gourds, and as for Nangong Lifeng, he was unlucky enough to bring sugar water to the two, holding pastries and pancakes, and looking at the small figure in front of him with a bitter face.

Ay! Why is he so miserable! If he hadn't been impulsively bewitched by this little guy at that time, he wouldn't have provoked that woman, and he wouldn't have asked Yanbao and Ruo'er to help settle it, and the phenomenon wouldn't have been reduced to a little guy for two.

Thinking of him, the head of the Snowy Realm Holy Sect, a well-known powerhouse in the Divine Realm, now, he has been reduced to a servant who does chores. Although, this is essentially different from a servant, but in any case, it is an act of ruining his reputation.

"Didn't you see this little boy just now?" The person who spoke just now approached Yan Bao curiously, and saw that his eyes were full of doubts, and he was biting the sugar gourd, and he didn't speak very clearly, so he didn't wait for him to answer, and continued: "That's the case, just now there was another man and a woman, both dressed in white, the faces of the two are characters in the world, the woman is gentle and playful, full of vitality, and the man is domineering and difficult to explain. However, the man's face was cold, but he refused to be thousands of miles away, so we didn't dare to come forward and disturb him. However, these two peerless people, walking and walking, suddenly turned to the other side. ”

"There were no boats, no bridges, only a secluded lake, but the lady and the son, as if they could not see it, ran across the lake, and finally disappeared above the lake. And the son, just watched the lady disappear, but he didn't react, but instead took off the ice of the previous year, showing a helpless smile. Is it really strange to look at? ”

"It's impossible to suddenly disappear above the lake? There are no formations around here, how can they suddenly disappear? Yan Bao looked at the lake suspiciously. And Ruo'er heard what they said, but secretly thought about it.

Ziyue had asked her if anything had happened that night, but when she answered the greetings and asked them rhetorically, she just said that it was okay and was trapped by the formation. So, will their disappearance just now be the same as before?

"Did you see anything special about them?" Ruo'er thought about it for a while, and then asked, wanting to see if she could find some clues from what was on them. After all, according to them, the two of them were not forced in. And, it seems, I'm still happy, and I'm treated exactly like I usually do, which has to be said, it's a miracle.

If there is really danger, the two will not be playful and helpless.

"Yes, I remember that the two of them were holding a turquoise lotus lantern in their hands, by the way, the lantern was somewhat similar to the Bilian that was about to open later, and from a distance, it was really Bilian." Some people around recalled the scene just now and quickly answered her questions.

"The blue lotus lantern naturally disappeared by itself, as if it didn't perceive the danger." Ruo'er muttered to herself, and then exclaimed, "It's broken, there's something wrong with the lantern they are holding!"

"Hmmm! There is indeed a problem. However, even if there is a problem with the lanterns, they should have discovered it a long time ago, if they didn't find it, it can only mean that they have appeared in another world, and they can also travel freely between the two worlds without restrictions! Only then will they not realize that they have disappeared from this world. It seems that this Bilian Lantern Festival is really as the princess expected, full of weirdness. Nangong Lifeng vacated the space and guessed.

"Maybe that's what you say! It's just that now even if we know, we can't get Ziyue and them back, and now we can only stand here and wait for them to come out! Ruo'er sighed, pulled Yanbao to find a place on the side, and prepared to sit down and wait.

"Aunt Ruo'er, don't worry, I think my mother and they may have touched something. According to what you said, if there is a problem with the lantern, it can only mean that there is a problem with the lantern seller, since now, as long as we find the person who sells the lantern, and then buy another lantern from him, we should be able to find the father and mother, so there is no need to wait here, nothing can be done! After Yan Bao finished speaking, he said what he thought about the last.

"Yanbao, you have a good idea!" Nangong Lifeng immediately exclaimed. The three of them began to look for the man who sold the lanterns, as they had just said. (To be continued.) )
