Liu Ye walked to Shi Lan's side, and the two stood in an alley paved with a stone road, on one side was a wooden wall with red lanterns hanging on the eaves, and on the other side was a lantern curtain composed of many lanterns, and under each lantern there was a note with a lantern riddle written on it.

At the other end of the alley, there was a wooden table, and a staff member dressed in ancient cloth was handing out rewards to those who guessed the lantern riddles, but he seemed to be a little absent-minded, and his eyes drifted in the direction of his hand from time to time.

"Let's try it too!" Shilan excitedly pointed to a lantern beside her, but her eyes kept looking like the side of the staff member who gave the reward.

Liu Ye turned his head to look and found that there was a portable red lotus lamp at the man's feet, which was quite beautifully made.

"Excuse me, what question does this reward have to answer correctly?" asked Liu Ye, pointing to the red lotus lamp.

"Ah, that's what you say. The staff smiled awkwardly, "This is issued by the organizer to the employees for their own use, not a prize." ”

"Ahh

"Is there no other way?" Liu Ye touched his chin, "For example, I'll buy it from you directly?"

"I'm sorry, but I'm going to keep this thing as a souvenir. The man looked embarrassed, but he didn't budge at all, "I'm sorry, but this is not for sale." ”

Shi Lan poked her index finger with both hands, but she still didn't want to give up like that.

Seeing her like this, Liu Ye couldn't help but sigh, grabbed a set of paper and pens from the table, and walked to the lantern wall alone.

"Hmm, what are you going to do, guest?"

"Guess the lantern riddle, what else can you do?" Liu Ye said lazily, "As long as I win all the prizes and exchange them for the red lotus lantern with you, I think you should have no reason to refuse." ”

As soon as these words came out, passers-by stopped and looked sideways.

"This ......" the man grimaced, "I may ......"

"Since we came here, your left hand has never left that golden mobile phone, even when you give out awards, you have been holding it, which shows that you really like it. Liu Ye clasped his hands in front of his chest, and said irrelevant words while looking at the lantern in front of him, "That's the limited model that the Golden Ape just released on New Year's Day this year, the price in Boyun City is as high as 1,000 technology coins, and when converted into a regular currency in China, it will cost more than 70,000, tsk, that's a lot of expenses, especially for an ordinary employee." ”

"So what? I like it, it's my freedom. ”

"Well, I think so. Liu Ye had already finished reading half of the lanterns, and kept recording something on the paper, "Having said that, this matter is at most a barter, I guess the lantern riddle will take the prize, exchange it for your lantern, and take what you need, why not?"

"It seems to make a lot of sense, but I'm sorry, I don't change it. The man grinned, "I'm a person, I don't like to change what I think of." ”

"Hmm-that's weird, why don't you change it?" Liu Ye was still checking the lantern riddle, his index finger on his lips, "Since the beginning, I have been unable to figure it out a little. An ordinary scenic spot staff has just spent such a large price to buy a mobile phone, presumably life has not been very prosperous recently, and we have made it clear that we want this lantern very much. If it were me, I wouldn't give up this good opportunity to make money and kill people. ”

"What's so strange about this, I said I want to keep it as a memento. The man was still smiling, but in the winter, a layer of fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Shi Lan looked at Liu Ye with wide eyes, he seemed to have become a complete stranger, exuding a powerful aura all over his body, and his tone was loose, but he revealed incomparable confidence.

"Keep it as a souvenir?" Liu Ye wiped the corners of his eyes, looking nonchalant, "In the final analysis, it's just a red lotus lamp, even if it's more exquisitely done, it's just a mass-produced standard product, there's no reason to attach so much importance to it." Why would a person who is short of money refuse when he hasn't even heard the price? ”

"What do you want to do, this guest, you've been saying something that no one else understands?" said the man with a frown, "What you said has no basis at all and is purely personal speculation. If you don't leave, I'm going to notify the security guards. ”

"I'm guessing the riddles," Liu Ye finally finished reading all the riddles, he walked slowly to the man, and showed him, "There are a total of nine rows of lanterns, eleven in each row, of which the riddles of twenty-three lanterns have been solved, and there are seventy-six left, which are all the answers." ”

The crowd of onlookers gathered more and more, and the already small alley was crowded.

Shi Lan frowned, raised her hand and wanted to increase the strength of the perception shielding technique, but was gently held down by Liu Ye.

"Ahem, this is your prize, do you need to wrap it up?" The man pushed his hand and moved everything on the table in Liu Ye's direction.

"No, no, no, I don't want to, with these, I'll add another 20,000 technology coins in exchange for your lamp, how about it?" Liu Ye pointed to the red lotus lamp at his feet.

Many onlookers were whispering, and the alleys became noisy.

"I'm sorry, I said I didn't change it, I just didn't change it. The man said without humility or arrogance, and made a lofty appearance, "I will not bow to money." ”

"Well, it looks like you really don't want to change it. It's good that I don't have that much money. Liu Ye nodded thoughtfully, "But it's so strange, I thought no one could refuse such a temptation." ”

"This guest, if you don't leave with the prize, I'm going to judge you as deliberately disrupting the order. The man raised his hand and put it on the red alarm button behind him, with a fierce look on his face, "You've been here for a long time, don't be ignorant." ”

Liu Ye took a deep breath, then put his hand on the man's hand pressing the red button.

"If you want to press, I'll help you. ”

For a while, the alarm bell sounded, and the outside of the alley immediately became chaotic, and the crowd of onlookers in the alley also dispersed a lot, and many people slipped away when they saw that things were big.

"You!" The man didn't expect Liu Ye to do this, and in a panic, he wanted to kick over the wooden table and take the opportunity to escape, but it seemed to be kicked on the iron plate, only a muffled sound was heard, and the wooden table did not move at all.

Shilan sat on the table, playing with the little prizes and dangling her legs.

"The security guards you want are here right away. Liu Ye yawned, "Are you ready to say hello to them?"

"Who are you?" The man desperately tried to break free, but his feet were stuck to the ground like superglue and couldn't move, and his hands were held down by Liu Ye.

"We?" Liu Ye and Shi Lan glanced at each other and smiled slightly, "We are enthusiastic citizens. ”
