The old man's shop is not small, the lamp shed is also large, and there are many customers. Shu Yu Tao Xiang character and outstanding, hit him standing here ready to shoot the bow and arrows since many people were attracted to stop, at this time to see him lose as soon as he shot, even more interesting, so the inside three layers and the outer three layers, this time is not for them to look at the lanterns, but to see the lanterns to see them.

Tao Xiao didn't pay attention to this, but took the bow in his hand and pondered it again, touched his chin and said, "It's really me who underestimated the enemy." ”

Jing Yi saw that the old man was still looking at them with a smile, and thought to herself, how could it be so easy to bargain?

Tao Xiang simply took off his coat and handed it to Jing Yi. He stretched out his arms and went to open the bow again, which was more important than before. Such a hard bow was slowly opened by him. There were three rounds of opening and closing, and he compared the arrow and asked Jingyi: "Which one do you want?" ”

Jingyi looked at the lantern in the circle, pointed to the lotus lantern and said, "That's it." She saw that the lotus lantern was delicate, and it was a relatively moderate distance.

Tao Xiang said: "That's it." ”

He aimed at the lotus lantern and shot the arrow with a whoosh. I didn't want this arrow to go out and it seemed to be 108,000 miles away, and I didn't shoot the lotus lantern, but hit a five-son Dengke next to me.

There was laughter in the crowd behind him, and it could be heard that it was mostly women.

Jing Yi glanced at Tao Xiang, he tilted his head and looked at the old man.

"It doesn't count." The old man smiled and said, "Can't count, can't count." Again, again. ”

Jing Yi also smiled, and Tao Xiang reluctantly shot two more arrows in a row, but he didn't hit another one. He was not convinced, and was about to get a few more arrows. Jingyi saw that there were a few girls on the side holding bamboo traps and lanterns, so she asked, "Is that a dime?" ”

"Yes." The old man didn't ask again, and gave ten bamboo rings to Jingyi.

Jing Yi continued, and Tao Xiang watched from the side.

How do you know that Jingyi's means of ferrule are worse than Tao Xiang's archery, and ten bamboo rings are thrown out, but they don't even touch them.

Tao Xiang saw her pouting, and couldn't help but smile: "Just let Attu come to the rescue, you have to buy all the lights here and make ......."

"Don't. I don't believe we can't win a single one. Let's have ten more laps, and we'll have half of each of us. It's all you, why are you so stupid! Missed ...... Archery The circle always hits, right? Jing Yi was so competitive that she had long forgotten what the situation was at this time, and immediately supported Tao Xiang, and didn't look at whether Tao Xiao's face was going to be dark. She was just about to ask the old man to bring her another bamboo ring, when she suddenly heard someone next to her laughing: "This girl is really competitive." It's a pity that I don't have the right head on my hand. ”

Jing Yi turned her head to look, and there were several people standing on the side, looking at men and women, all wearing masks, and the little ghost in front of King Yama was also like a little ghost, dressed as if he had come down from the stage.

"If this girl is not competitive, whose money will the old man earn?" One of the women said with a smile. Jing Yi looked at a bamboo ring in her hand, turned around and threw it as she spoke, and the bamboo ring drew a beautiful arc in the air and accurately set it on the lotus lamp. Two more circles were thrown, and the circles did not miss. It's just that she stopped after throwing three bamboo hoops. The old man took a handful of lanterns in his hand and gave it to the woman, making a sad face and saying, "It's all as accurate as you have, and I will lose a lot of money in business." ”

"Of course, the old man thinks that it would be nice to have more of this girl who may not have children in his hands." The woman was wearing a mask, and her voice was hoarse.

Jing Yi smiled. At this time, she was in a good mood and ignored her ridicule. Seeing that Atul and Qiu Wei were walking this way, she put her hand on Tao Xiang's arm and said, "Let's go over there and guess the lantern riddles, shall we?" ”

Tao Xiang instructed Atul to settle the account.

Tu Huyi couldn't close the boss with his mouth open while taking out the money. Tao Xiang glared at him, he gritted his teeth and couldn't help but smile and pay the account and keep up, but he couldn't help but say: "Master, how can this be ......?"

Jingyi sighed deliberately.

"Girl, stay." The woman came over and gave Jingyi the lotus lantern in her hand, "I see if you like it, I'll give this to you." ”

"Thank you." Jingyi generously took the lotus lantern and smiled at her.

As soon as she turned around, she held the lantern up and looked at it.

"Aren't you afraid there's something wrong with this thing?" Tao Xiang asked. He turned around, and the men were still in place, as if watching them leave. He bowed slightly. One of them raised the three-chucked stick in his hand in salute.

Jing Yi glanced at him and said, "Under your nose, they won't." ”

"It's not that you don't dare, but you won't?" Tao Xiang asked again.

"For generations, the Xiao family has made a living by tying lanterns and bamboo horses. The business contacted in the light market determines most of their income, and the losses outweigh the losses. Besides, didn't Fulong Mountain just be hit hard? If something happens here, not to mention ruining the business of the Lu family, he won't be able to get out of the city. Even if you become the top spot in Fulong Mountain, isn't it equivalent to giving it away? Jing Yi tilted her head to look at the structure of the lotus lantern. It's ingenious. A stand made of bamboo, as thin as a hair. The yarn lamp is very fine, and the pattern drawn is not an ordinary technique. It can be seen that the inheritance is long.

She took the crossbar of the lantern in her hand, and her fingers swiped it, and there was a small word "逄" at the end of the crossbar, which was burned on the top. Most of the lanterns here are made of straw, and very few are made of bamboo, which shows that the lanterns of the family do not lose their own traditions, and do not hesitate to do so.

Tao Xiang slowed down and asked, "Who told you this?" ”

"What?" Jing Yi asked rhetorically.

"The matter of Fulong Mountain." Tao Xiang said.

"I mentioned it to my aunt and grandmother, and I guessed the rest...... It's no secret. But for you, Fulong Mountain, which can only sell tobacco and soil, is not to be feared, and the Dunhuang that cleaned these is worth paying attention to, right? Jingyi's wrist flipped, and the lotus lamp rotated on the crossbar, like a lotus floating on the water, which was very beautiful.

Tao Xiang asked, "How did you recognize him?" ”

"It was his sister who gave me the lotus lantern. I remember she had a deep scar on her hand. The face is covered, but the scar is not covered. Jingyi said. But she didn't admit it, in fact, the first thing she recognized was Xiao Dunhuang - even if he was wearing a mask, Xiao Dunhuang's electric gaze was very sharp, and she recognized him almost the moment she turned her head. Nervous and a little nervous, but for some reason she didn't feel afraid. Probably because his gaze, although sharp, was not fierce.

"You're not going to capture them alive tonight, are you?" She asked.

"I didn't know, but you still have a relationship with bandits." Tao Xiang said.

Jingyi paused before saying, "Who has a relationship with the bandits......

Tao Xiang looked at the lotus lantern in her hand and said, "For the sake of this lotus lantern, just let someone escort them out of the city." ”

There was a bit of banter in his tone.

Jingyi let go of Tao Xiang's arm, turned around, walked backwards, and said, "Those cigarettes and soil you seized are worth a lot of money, right?" ”

Tao Xiang raised his eyebrows.

Jingyi retreated step by step, like a naughty child, and didn't look at the road.

Tao Xiang glanced at her feet and didn't answer her.

Just looking at her naughty childlike appearance, I definitely couldn't think of an hour ago, because of that kind of thing and still quarreled with him...... He cleared his throat.

"It's fun!" Jingyi pointed to the lantern shed set up in front of the door of a restaurant, where many exquisite lanterns hung in the shed, and the riddle was written on the cloth strip under the lamp. She took the lotus lantern and went into the lantern booth.

Tao Xiang looked at her, under the warm and hazy shadow, her face looked particularly soft, and swept away the innocent childishness just now......

The lantern shed is next to the lantern shed, and Jingyi and his family stroll over, seeing more and guessing less. Occasionally, Qiu Wei, who followed her closely, asked her how to read the words on the riddle, and she explained it to her.

Tao Xiang walked after their master and servant.

Tu Huyi looked back and forth from time to time, and Tao Xiang was annoyed by him and glared at him. Tu Huyi said aggrievedly: "Master, if you don't take me out, bring the old horse out, the old horse doesn't talk much." It's too hard for me to take me out without worrying about me......"

Tao Xiang snorted.

Tu Huyi touched the back of his head and said, "Yes, I was worried, and I didn't delay the Lantern Festival." Master, do you want to buy a few gourds? The young grandmother has never seen this, I like it, this is a good ...... Wait a while to buy some grilled gluten, sweet paste, gray beans or something? And sugar oil cake! Buy gourds first...... he led Tao Xiang to the stall selling gourds on the side.

Tao Xiao glanced at Jing Yi, who was looking up at the riddle on a beauty lamp......

"Make a small life...... Eye...... Looking at the east wall, I can't wait to ...... What is left and right in Rutai...... Miss, how do you pronounce those two words? Qiu Wei pointed to the strip of cloth with the riddle under a beauty lamp and asked Jingyi.

"Armpit wings. Make Xiaosheng look at the east wall, and he can't wait to have his armpits and wings left and right on Rutai...... This sentence is from the West Chamber, you know, it is Cui Yingying and Zhang Sheng......" Jingyi said. She looked at the riddle closely, "That's interesting...... What is it? Visually ...... the East Wall But 'thinking about it'? Jingyi's hand touched the strip of cloth.

"I've thought about it!" A soft voice sounded almost simultaneously.

Through the beauty lamp, the owner of the voice is holding the tassel under the lamp.

"Yo, that's a coincidence. The two of them guessed the riddle correctly at the same time. The guy who watched the lantern shed said with a smile, turned around and shouted: "Shopkeeper, how should the two of you guess the lantern riddle at the same time?" ”

Jing Yi tilted her head slightly, her hand loosened the strip of cloth, and the woman also let go of the lamp tassel and smiled at Jing Yi.

Jing Yi looked at the woman dressed as a young woman opposite: dressed in plain clothes, graceful posture, tall and elegant, no powder on her face, there was still a feeling of pale and thin under the warm light, and the handmaid slave next to her was even more weak. Jingyi saw that she had a good bearing, and in a trance she thought that she had seen the wrong person, and when she was stunned, the young woman was reminded by the maid beside her, raised her eyes, and seemed to be stunned.

"This is the seventh young grandmother of the Tao family, right?" She asked softly. Although it was an inquiry, the tone was firm.
