182 Viewing the ceremony
The finals of the Flower and Grass Festival are scheduled for May 31, and the stage is the "Shengjing Terrace" on Pingdan Sheng Street, which is not inferior to the central square in terms of size, and is enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. The location was apparently set in this place to welcome the arrival of members of the community, and their participation was also required for the final voting.
In this regard, it is a new attempt made by Qiu Changzhou with a wave of his hand. The grandfather looked old-fashioned, but he was unexpectedly concerned about this matter, and Long Lie faintly had the illusion of "highly anticipated". Of course, when he thought of the harsh condition of 60% of the vote, he quickly extinguished this thought.
At the same time, on the day before the finals, Pingdan Sheng Street has sounded the sound of cannons and gongs and drums, by the royal reserve palace, the battle music department, the dance floor disco, the ceremonial hall and many other departments, respectively, to carry out propaganda activities, to show the capital the grand occasion of the flower and grass festival, because of the involvement of several departments, the competition mind into the game, even the warm-up work is done grandly.
There are many festivals in the Wangjin Empire, such as Thanksgiving Day and sacrificial ceremonies celebrated by the whole country, as well as regional Dragon City Starfall Ceremony, but among them, the most favorite festival is Wangjin Academy, and it is this cultural precipitation that makes it transcendent.
Under the relatively free school rules, a group of highly creative students always make some activities every once in a while, and when it gradually becomes the climate, they will be recognized by the college and compiled into the official name of "college festival".
Now, after several sessions, the flower and plant festival has finally been promoted to this echelon, and looking at this posture, it has a bit of the feeling of an annual ceremony.
As the department that initiated the activity, it was also named in the academy, and it must be proud to receive such an honor, and I can't hold back the smile on my face these days.
The fourteen contestants who were honored to be shortlisted, their photos and video essays were also widely reported by the news in Beijing, and Long Lie and Feilu, who appeared on the school flower list, naturally caused an uproar in the capital.
Controversy is a double-edged sword, but the attention it brings cannot be ignored, Long Lie's composition is not necessarily well-written, but it is definitely the most widely circulated. After all, the audience is no longer a top student, but has turned to the general public, and they obviously prefer to discuss the "gender mystery" of the eldest young master of the Long family more than philosophical papers such as "A Leaf Blind".
For those voices of dissent, Long Lie did not refuse, but hoped that they would come more violently. But he still had a hint of worry... The main thing is that I don't want these public opinions to be spread to Dragon City.
With such a mood, when Long Lie Zhong Xuanyang was invited to the Dragon Girl Garden... I was bumped into five unexpected guests.
Who would have thought that Long Qingya, Kang Xiao, Di Shengkai, Ning Rouer, Ning Duoduo... Today, we actually gathered at Wangjin College. I haven't seen each other for half a year, and they haven't changed much, only my cousin Ning Duoduo has grown a little bigger.
As soon as they saw Long Lie arrive, Kang Xiao and Di Shengkai, the two male elders, immediately grabbed Long Lie's shoulders with relish and lifted him up, "My good man... The fourth lady of the Long family, why haven't you grown a head, it's not as good as your cousin," Kang Xiao teased familiarly.
Di Shengkai followed closely behind, "I haven't had time to congratulate you, the future college flower"
Long Lie's head was full of black lines, "uncle, uncle" could only salute respectfully.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, how can I be divided" Di Shengkai flicked his forehead, "Laugh quickly, take a look" Long Xu learned this strange gesture from him.
Long Lie casually hung a smiling face, but the elders couldn't help but be surprised, Long Qingya chuckled and said, "I heard Long Ran write back and say that you are getting more and more lively now, and when you see it today, it is still far beyond my expectations" Long Lie's emotions accumulated in Wangjin Academy have indeed made rapid progress, and even the partners who get along day and night are amazed, not to mention the elders who have not seen each other for a long time.
At this time, Ning Duoduo, the little witch of the mixed world, jumped out of her mother's arms and came to Long Lie's side, "Brother Long Lie, you are getting better, Duoduo misses you so much" Her black and gold braids are becoming more and more complicated, as a masterpiece of Di Shengkai's favorite daughter.
Long Lie hurriedly took a koi cake to her, "Little girl, why did you change your temperament?", Ning Duoduo got the cake and looked through it carefully, and was reluctant to open his mouth to eat "Since you went to school, I was super bored at home, and the snacks ran out quickly, and I could only roll in the flowers with the Holy Light Rabbit every day"
Long Lie felt sorry for the Holy Light Rabbit and those flowers in advance, "Soon we will have a holiday, and when the time comes, I will go home and play with you, I have a super cute partner here" He decided without hesitation to confess the wood spirit and play with the children, which is the only way for the natal beast.
Di Shengkai stepped forward with a smile, "Originally, I came to pick you up from school, but when I heard that three people had entered the flower and grass festival, everyone rushed over as a group of relatives and friends to help." When the time comes, just buy the day's photo stone and bring it back to your grandmother" The city lord Long Yun must sit in Dragon City, so there is no way to come, but she is obviously also concerned about this side.
"In order to witness the flower and plant festival performance of my baby daughter, and the dragon boy won the crown of the school flower" Kang Xiao put his hands on his chest and looked around at the three of them "On the way here, I watched the video and composition over and over again, and I am proud of you!"
"Father" Long Yan poked his waist and said aggrievedly, "I..."
"You didn't make it to the finals, it's because the current students are too visionless" Kang Xiao rubbed her head and comforted, "In my heart, you are a super cool girl" After all, this is the girl he has been digging bird eggs and digging mud since he was a child, and most of Long Yan's temperament originates from Kang Xiao.
"When I was studying, why didn't there be this kind of activity" Long Qingya said eagerly, "I admit defeat in strength and wisdom, but in terms of beauty and popularity, I really want to compete with the second and third children" She said naturally Long Qingyue and Long Qingyu, the flower and plant festival is a new activity that has only risen in the past ten years, eight of which have been occupied by the prince of Xiyuan, almost because there is no suspense, the attention continues to decline, fortunately, this time Qiu Changzhou personally changed the competition system, and dazzling players emerged, directly pushing the flower and grass festival to the peak.
"Long Qingyue, what about that girl, why didn't you see her," Kang Xiao asked curiously.
Long Ran trembled and said, "Not long after entering the school, the second aunt was thrown into a fully enclosed laboratory, and she hasn't come out yet, and it is said that she is studying what super venom" So the last time I had to help Jin Chengfeng at the American food tasting.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel numb, Long Qingyue was going to go all the way to the black with poison art.
"This crazy girl..."Kang Xiao and Long Qingya both complained silently, it seems that her marriage line has been completely broken.
However, this time to visit, the elders were also very pleased, everyone was developing in a good direction, even the most worried Long Lie and Long Xu, also adapted to the life of the academy.
Throughout the afternoon, it was a happy scene, Kang Xiao guided Zhong Xuanyang's fighting skills hand-in-hand, Long Yan asked Ning Rouer how to be more feminine, Long Qingya and Long Ran chatted about family affairs, Long Xu and Di Shengkai chatted about the mainland as always, and Long Lie was left to pinch the wood spirit to play with Ning Duoduo.
Inside the Wangjin Academy, originally only A-level graduates could come back, only Kang Xiao and Long Qingya were A-level here, Ning Rouer followed her father to learn family skills since she was a child, Di Shengkai went directly to the mainland in his early years, and the two of them were able to come in because of Kang Xiao and their A-level as guarantors, but they couldn't stay overnight here, and they could only stay for three hours in total.
So such a beautiful atmosphere didn't last long, they were about to say goodbye, and when they agreed to meet again tomorrow, Ning Duoduo waved her hand reluctantly, even Long Lie couldn't help but soften, just thinking about finishing the flower and plant festival quickly and returning to Dragon City to feel the warmth of home.
Di Shengkai and his family of three were the first to leave, going to find a place to stay in the capital.
And Long Qingya, as an A-level graduate, was not in a hurry to leave, she showed a somewhat complicated expression, "I'm going to visit my father first", the father in her mouth is naturally Qiu Changzhou.
Long Yan stuck out her tongue bluntly, "Mother, you must complain to your grandfather, the 60% rule he set is too harsh."
Long Qingya's face quickly changed, and she turned her head and smiled, "I will count him down well, and I look forward to your performance tomorrow."
