Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Lantern Festival is hunted down again
Su Zhiyuan stood beside Sikong Changle, silently looking at the lantern, and it was really exquisite.
And there are many other kinds of lanterns in his stall.
There are lotus shapes, rabbit shapes, all kinds, you name it.
"It's time for us to go, we're on our way." Su Zhiyuan saw that Sikong Changle had been watching it for so long, and said quietly.
But as soon as Su Zhiyuan finished saying this, Sikong Changle put down the lantern in his hand and immediately hugged her arm, looking aggrieved.
Just seeing Sikong Changle's appearance, Su Zhiyuan knew what was going on, she sighed and said quietly: "It's useless for you to tell me about your grievances, let's hurry now." ”
"Just one night, let's play here for one night, you said that we have worked hard all the way, just as it happened to have such a good opportunity, take a good rest, otherwise how can this annual lantern festival happen to be caught up by us?" Sikong Changle looked at Su Zhiyuan pitifully and said.
When he heard this, Su Zhiyuan's whole heart was about to collapse.
As soon as she was about to say something, she heard the vendor add: "This girl's vision is really good, this lantern festival was originally supposed to be three nights, and it is already the last night for you to come to me, and there will be fireworks later." ”
Their lantern festival is very grand, so they will celebrate with fireworks, and every house will hang lanterns at the door, even the poor will paste two paper lanterns to meaning.
When he heard that there would be fireworks at night, Sikong Changle made up his mind even more excitedly, he must let Su Zhiyuan stay here and stay for one night.
"It doesn't matter if we have to hurry, but the horse may not be able to stand it, we have been running around day and night for so long, and if we don't let it rest well, then the rest of the road will not be easy." Sikong Changle straightened his face, looking like I was thinking about us, looked at Su Zhiyuan and said.
What are you kidding, her horse is a good sweaty BMW, how can she get tired and lie down after only running for a few days? Su Zhiyuan secretly said in his heart.
But she didn't say these words, Sikong Changle mainly wanted to take a look at the fireworks at night here, and Su Zhiyuan thought about it carefully, and it was no big deal to rest here.
"Well, in that case, you should buy two lanterns first, let's find an inn to stay for the time being, and then talk about the fireworks at night." Su Zhiyuan sighed, looked at Sikong Changle and said helplessly.
Sure enough, it was the queen's favorite princess, this squeamish look.
Seeing that Su Zhiyuan agreed, Sikong Changle was immediately happy.
"Sister, I know that you are the best, I love you." Sikong Changle said happily as he turned around and picked out two or three cute lanterns from the vendors.
"The girl really has a vision, such a lotus-shaped lantern is the best we sell here, and when the fireworks are set off, you go to the stream next to the town, and release the lantern, and the farther you float along the stream, the better your luck this year." The peddler said when he was looking for money for Sikong Changle.
What kind of mess is this, Su Zhiyuan doesn't believe it, he can decide his blessing with a lantern.
"This girl, do you want two lanterns?" After the vendor handed the lantern to Sikong Changle, he turned his head to look at Su Zhiyuan and asked.
This girl looks completely different from the girl in front of her, and she has been standing behind with a blank face, as if the joyful atmosphere around her has not affected her at all.
Su Zhiyuan shook his head slightly, and said politely, "No need."
However, Sikong Changle reached out and picked out a delicate little rabbit lantern and handed it to her: "Since you have caught up, if you don't follow the local customs, it will be too boring, and this lantern will be regarded as a gift from me." ”
When she saw those words, Su Zhiyuan's face was a little abrupt, and she didn't know what to say.
As a girl, it's a bit inappropriate not to like these things.
But she really didn't have the slightest interest in these things.
"Let's go, it's not too early now, if you don't go back, you won't have time to watch the fireworks and set off the lanterns later." After Su Zhiyuan paid the money, he pulled Sikong Changle and left here quickly.
Sikong Changle let out a "hmm", holding the lantern in his hand, as careful as a baby.
She watched Su Zhiyuan pinching the lantern in her hand so casually, the little rabbit's ears were almost pinched and deformed, and her heart was distressed for a while, but when she saw her face like an ice cube, she didn't dare to say anything.
I finally found an inn, because today is the Lantern Festival, so many people from the village below have come to the town, and the inn is very crowded.
They ran to two or three inns before they finally found a room where they could stay.
"Two girls, there is only one room left in the store now, and this room is a little noisy against the staircase." The shopkeeper said as he flipped through the account book in front of him.
When she heard this, Su Zhiyuan frowned subconsciously, she was not very worried that the noise would affect her, but the little princess beside her was not necessarily.
"I can't find a more suitable place now, so let's stay here for the time being." Su Zhiyuan turned his head to look at the person on the side and said.
Originally, Sikong Changle wanted to say something to refuse, but now when she saw Su Zhiyuan's expression, she didn't dare to say anything.
According to today's situation, it is a question whether there will be an inn for them to live in later.
"I don't have anything, as long as I can participate in this Lantern Festival, I can do anything." Sikong Changle put on a look that I didn't care about anything, but the strong feeling of unwillingness to compromise in his eyes was very strong.
Su Zhiyuan directly ignored her current expression.
After entering the room, I found that this room was not very large, and a screen in the middle separated the two beds, except for the two beds, only a table and a wardrobe could be placed.
But after thinking of tonight's Lantern Festival, Sikong Changle directly ignored these, held his lamp, and was about to go out cautiously.
However, before she could walk out of the door, she was stopped by Su Zhiyuan: "Don't you want to clean up the things here?" ”
Along the way, Sikong Changle simply brought out the emotions of the little princess to the fullest.
Not to mention being squeamish, he doesn't think about others at all, and he wants to eat, drink and be merry whenever he goes to a place.
When he heard this, Sikong Changle turned around a little embarrassed, put his lantern on the table, and then helped pack the luggage he brought a little.
This is already very good, Su Zhiyuan sighed, it is better than letting her do everything alone.
"Alright, let's go now." Su Zhiyuan waved his hand as he spoke, signaling Sikong Changle to hurry up and follow.
It was crowded with people outside, and Su Zhiyuan didn't expect that there would be so many people in just a small town.
Now almost everyone was heading to the stream outside, so they easily found the stream.
It is said that the creek is relatively wide, and both sides of the stream are already full of people, so they will put down the lanterns when the time comes.
"You said that the lanterns of the two of us, whose lanterns will float farther? I hope the lanterns for both of us can float far away. Before starting, Sikong Changle held the lantern in his hand and looked at Su Zhiyuan with great interest and said.
Su Zhiyuan glanced at her and didn't say anything.
Soon as the first fireworks sounded, everyone lit their lanterns one after another, and then carefully lowered them into the stream.
There are so many lanterns in the stream, so for a while, a lot of lanterns are crowded together.
Su Zhiyuan also followed their example and lit the lantern in his hand, and then carefully placed it in the stream.
"When I watched the lantern float by, I remembered how they flew kites when they were children, but unfortunately they couldn't fly kites in person." Sikong Changle looked at the lantern fading away, and said with some emotion.
Su Zhiyuan knew that because of Sikong Changle's identity, the palace was afraid of what would happen to her, so it was difficult for things like kite flying to be allowed.
"The lanterns of the two of us are no longer visible now, so let's watch the fireworks." Su Zhiyuan didn't know why, and he didn't feel so much hate for Sikong Changle in his heart.
On the contrary, she felt that this little girl had a trace of helplessness.
"This firework is really good-looking, compared to those fireworks in the capital, although it is a lot smaller, but it is also new." Sikong Changle raised his head and said with a sigh as he looked at the fireworks burning in the sky.
Because there is a festival like the Lantern Festival, the town spends most of the year preparing for today's fireworks.
When the wind blew like this at night, Su Zhiyuan felt a trace of coldness, and she wrapped her clothes tightly.
It's really strange, this is when she actually felt such a chill.
"Why don't we go back now." Sikong Changle also saw Su Zhiyuan's movements.
This little princess finally has a time to feel distressed, Su Zhiyuan was secretly surprised in her heart.
However, just as the two of them were about to go back, Su Zhiyuan's afterglow suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a figure running in the woods next to him.
"There seems to be someone over there." Su Zhiyuan frowned subconsciously.
From her instincts, she only felt that the person being chased in front of her was somewhat familiar.
After Sikong Changle heard Su Zhiyuan's words at this time, he looked in that direction, as if he saw something shaking in the woods.
"Let's go check it out." For some reason, Su Zhiqi walked towards the woods like a god.
Now that the lanterns have been put out, there is nothing to do, and everyone is gradually preparing to go back.
When he saw Su Zhiyuan about to walk towards the woods, Sikong Changle's whole face changed, if such a dark innocence was going to pass, would it be difficult to let her go back to the town alone?
Although there are so many people around now, she is not afraid of encountering any danger, but without Su Zhiyuan by her side, she is not at ease.
"Then I'll be with you." Sikong Changle thought for a while, and followed her quickly.
But Su Zhiyuan's movements were too fast, which forced Sikong Changle to speed up his pace, so that he could keep up with Su Zhiyuan when he trotted.
"Who is it?" As soon as Su Zhiyuan entered the grove, he saw a man being chased by several black-clothed people behind.
Before she could make a move, she could see the face of the man being chased.
It was actually Xiahou Chunyu.
Thinking of this, Su Zhiyuan frowned slightly, she didn't know where to find a towel and put it on her face.
When he disguised himself as something that others couldn't see, Su Zhiyuan walked forward quickly.
Xiahou Chunyu's previous injuries were not completely healed, and now he is being chased again, and the whole person has collapsed a little.
Why is it him again? After seeing that person clearly, Su Zhiyuan's whole person was a little helpless. She didn't have time to think about it, she flew up and kicked over the person who almost stuck the blade into Xiahou Chunyu's back.
