Yangzhou attaches great importance to the begging festival, the whole Jiangdu city since July 1 is permeated with the atmosphere of the begging festival, in a certain respect, the later generations will be the begging festival as Valentine's Day is also reasonable, men and women come out a lot.

Jiangdu is prosperous, but it is not as disciplined as the capital, although young boys and girls will not express their love too directly, but it is not an unruly thing to meet, of course, it is in the capital, such rules are also observed by those big families and scholars.

Entering the countryside and following the customs, not to mention the customs of her own place of residence, Daiyu is also happy, but she is also a little reserved, and she came out with Jia Baoyu at dusk, still with a veil.

Jia Baoyu and Daiyu, Xiangling, Qingwen, Xueyan and a few small people, in the process of leaving, for convenience, asked those little guys not to follow too closely, so I am afraid that it will attract attention.

However, it turns out that Jia Baoyu's worries are completely overwhelmed, with the appearance of several people, they are the most eye-catching wherever they go, but this cannot reduce the interest of several people.

Groups of girls, dyed red nails with impatiens and bunches of delicate fruits around their necks, bowed their heads from time to time to eat a bite or two.

Scholars who drink wine and talk about poetry are full of vigor and talk about the things that will happen in the coming year, and if they are in such an environment every day, they will definitely feel the prosperity and prosperity of the country.

A few people walked to the river together, although it was not the Lantern Festival, but there was no shortage of lanterns on the river, looking at the unusual beauty, the hoe medicine had already rented a boat, a few people got on the boat, and went down with the current, and the boats passing in the middle were endless. The most natural is the flower boat, each docking will have a number of famous merry talents on the boat, although not as prosperous as the Qinhuai River, but it is also very good.

Jia Baoyu was not idle along the way, I don't know how many hidden weapons he received, looking at the dozen purses on the bow of the boat, he had to sigh that the Qixi Festival had guided out the hidden presumptuousness of those girls.

Although the scenery on both sides of the strait is beautiful, in Jia Baoyu's eyes, it is not as good as her own Sister Lin's fingers, making tea in the cabin, and then talking to Daiyu A few words are much stronger than those.

Daiyu, who returned to Yangzhou, was the first time Jia Baoyu saw her. Put away a sense of pride and self-preservation. has a lot more freedom, such a sister Lin has to take a good look.

It's just that such a quiet moment can't last long, and the moving boat stopped suddenly, and Jia Baoyu was fine. Daiyu and the others in the cabin were unstable. Xiangling also knocked over a cup because of this. When I came out, I saw that I had collided with someone else's boat.

It was a slightly larger awning boat that hit Jia Baoyu's boat, and as soon as he came out, he saw a young man about one or twenty years old walking out of the boat opposite, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes. It's the type that makes people feel good at first sight.

The man was the first to speak: "Please forgive me for the servant who ate some wine and failed to control the direction and rammed your ship." ”

"It's okay, there are things we didn't pay attention to." The other party took the lead in apologizing, Jia Baoyu naturally didn't have any more attacks, and planned to return to the cabin after speaking.

"Meeting is fate, why don't you go on the boat."

Jia Baoyu shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, I have a female dependent here, so it's inconvenient to go over." ”

The man was a little surprised, "It turns out that Brother Tai has already married." ”

Jia Baoyu smiled and didn't answer, there was no need to explain such a thing to others, return to the cabin, and start again.

The man then returned to his cabin, where sat a pretty woman dressed in white, with a bell in one hand, and shook it slightly, very pleasantly, with a crisp smile, which showed that she was a lively person.

"Ling'er is really, what is it good to let people hit other people's boats."

The girl in white didn't answer this question, but said a little excitedly: "See! Brother, the one in the boat is beautiful. ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and shook his head helplessly, "I thought you had a crush on that handsome son, and I wanted to say that others were married to comfort you, but I didn't think the problem was here." ”

The girl in white said with some disdain when she heard this: "How could I fall in love with that kind of son of a family, it is too far worse than my brother, even if Liu Xianglian can't say it well." ”

"I don't have the confidence to be better than him."

Listening to the man's words, the girl was also stunned for a moment, she knew her brother's character, and she would not praise others for no reason, but she regretted that she didn't come out to see it before.

Soon ashore, everyone abandoned the boat and walked a little distance, and tasted various Yangzhou snacks such as Shao Bo water chestnut, Sanding bun, Yang Chuncha and so on.

These are all recommended by Daiyu, Daiyu, who usually only eats one or two bites, looks like she is a little happy, but it makes Jia Baoyu want to persuade her not to eat.

Something like threading a needle and begging is naturally not done, this is Daiyu's weakness, who would be bored if they have nothing to do!

When the group returned to the house, it was almost a watch, and after Jia Baoyu sent Daiyu back, he took a detour to Lin Ruhai's courtyard, close to a day's cultivation, Lin Ruhai was probably able to accept further recuperation.

Holding Puzi's true qi is the most conducive to prolonging life, Jia Baoyu lost some spiritual power for Lin Ruhai, and even informed Lin Ruhai of the cultivation method of holding Puzi and let him cultivate on his own, and the recuperation in a short period of time depends on Lin Ruhai himself.

"Uncle, you should not work hard for at least a month, I am afraid that the loss of soul will need to return to your hometown to fully recover."

Lin Ruhai was very convinced by Jia Baoyu's words, and asked, "When should I go back according to Baoyu's intentions?" ”

This Jia Baoyu had already thought about it and said, "Let's pass the Midyear Festival!" During the Midyear Festival, there will be a hundred ghosts walking at night, and it is not advisable to travel far. ”

Lin Ruhai listened solemnly, he must have disdained such a thing as a hundred ghosts walking at night in the past, and he didn't say anything about ghosts and gods, the Lin family is now a scholarly family, and Lin Ruhai relied on his ability to get in, and he didn't believe this, but now he can't help but believe it.

Jia Baoyu returned to the room, Xiangling had already made the bed, Jia Baoyu had been in the north for a long time, and yesterday's time was spent on Lin Ruhai's affairs, and today is officially living in Yangzhou, which is suddenly a little uncomfortable in the south.

Since he couldn't sleep for a while, he didn't force it, and got up, not wanting to wake up Xiangling, but he found that she didn't sleep either, and the master and servant had some heart-to-heart connection.

"I'll lay paper for you." Xiangling said that she laid paper for Jia Baoyu and studied ink, whenever there was something or she couldn't sleep, Jia Baoyu spent most of her time writing, which was already a habit.

Writing down the four words of a hundred ghosts at night on a piece of paper, Jia Baoyu couldn't help but look forward to the scene of the Midyear Festival, Jia Baoyu didn't have such a ability at this time last year, so naturally he couldn't see such a grand occasion.

This year, this is not Jia Baoyu's own knowledge, but Zhang Yulong's reminder, he has already met Zhang Yulong during the day, and he also knows the reasons for some things.

One of them is the reason why Zhang Yulong came here, the ghosts were the most powerful on the day of Zhongyuan, not only those lonely ghosts, but also those powerful ghosts locked up in the City God Temple.

Ordinary situations naturally don't need help, but the situation of Shao Bo City God's Temple is different because of the unknown magic circle, and there are not many ghosts. He was asked by Shao Bo Chenghuang to help defend against the attacks of the ghosts.

He never thought that as soon as he entered Jiangdu City, he felt a powerful ghost aura, this was all the way to Lin Mansion, and then things developed like that, he thought that Jia Baoyu was a powerful ghost who attacked Lin Ruhai, and it was he who attacked him.

Another thing I know is the reason why Lin Ruhai will be occupied by ghosts, and it is not easy for ghosts to occupy people's bodies, and it is even more difficult for people like Lin Ruhai who are in high positions and read poetry and books.

It's just that there is still a possibility, that is, the two of them have exactly the same birthday, this is the case with that powerful ghost and Lin Ruhai, this can only be said to be Lin Ruhai too unlucky.

Zhang Yulong, as a cultivator, is even more proficient in the art of runes, the so-called runes are similar to the five elements of the talisman that Jia Baoyu learned, and there are also some charms to ask the gods, worship the gods and goddesses to come down to help, but since a few months ago, the effect of those talismans has been greatly reduced, and until now it has no effect at all.

Zhang Yulong, who is a big faction like this, as the fifty-sixth generation of the Heavenly Master, is not to say that he takes the world as his own responsibility, but he also has to do his best not to let ghosts confuse the world, and he began to hunt ghosts everywhere a month ago.

Before leaving, Zhang Yulong instructed Jia Baoyu to meet Daoist Zhang when he could return to the capital, but he did not say what happened.

Time passed day by day, and Jia Baoyu's letter home was also replied, and the family was very happy to learn that Lin Ruhai was fine, and instructed Jia Baoyu to accompany Lin Ruhai until he fully recovered and then come back with Daiyu.

At the same time, he also said that some parents were short, which made Jia Baoyu feel more cordial, only ten days without being at home, he missed it so much in his heart, and the practice did not eliminate Jia Baoyu's mortal heart, but made Jia Baoyu miss his family even more.

Inadvertently, the time is July 15th, the Midyear Festival is finally here, ordinary people are busy worshipping their ancestors and going to the grave, and they don't feel that there is too much wrong, but Jia Baoyu can clearly feel the ghost in the air, this is only daytime, if it is at night, you can imagine.

The Lin family is also busy with these things, although Lin Ruhai's body has not fully recovered, but Jia Baoyu is covering it up on the side, but it can be perfectly hidden, at least it will not let ordinary people notice that Lin Ruhai is lacking in qi at the moment.

When it was time to hold the lamp, Jia Baoyu was out of his body and flew into the sky, looking at the light that Lin Fu couldn't hide no matter what, but he was a little helpless, these lights were emitted by Tongling Baoyu, in fact, this was the reason why Jia Baoyu didn't let Lin Ruhai leave before the Yuan Festival.
