Mengshui silkworm
At this time, the system suddenly issued a world announcement:
"In this bright and sunny early spring season, in order to thank the wind god for his blessings to the wind city, the city lord of the wind city decided to hold a paper kite competition in half a month according to the tradition, and everyone is welcome to sign up for it. The specific details can be viewed on the Windy City bulletin board. ”
Three times in a row, all the adventurers heard it.
"Paper Kite Competition, this is the first official competition in the game!"
"Yes, I want to participate, is there anyone to go, go together, add me."
"What kind of competition is this? Are there any friends in the Windy City, tell me, thank you very much! ”
"Windy City, I'm in Windy City right now, wait for me to go to the bulletin board and take a look."
"Weak question, do you all know what a paper kite is? Why didn't anyone ask? Am I the only one who doesn't know? ”
"Whatever it is, Lao Tzu will definitely participate."
“······”
There's a lot of talk on the chat screen, after all, it's the first big game in the game.
The interest of all the adventurers was also very high, and some of them had already rushed to the Windy City.
As for those in Windy City, they rushed to the bulletin board early at the end of the game announcement, and the bulletin board was already crowded with people at the moment.
Everyone crowded each other and pushed each other, all in order to see the announcement and grasp the news one step earlier.
Midsummer was on his way back to the courtyard at the moment, so he naturally heard this announcement.
Paper kites? Isn't this just a kite?
The paper kite contest is not just a kite flying contest.
There is nothing wrong with Midsummer's idea, the paper kite competition is a kite flying competition, but it is not only, because the competition requires participants to make kites on the spot and fly their own kites.
At this time, there were several chats in my ears.
"You know what? The Paper Kite Contest in the Windy City is about to begin. ”
"Really? It's been five years since the last event was held, and time has gone by so fast. ”
"yes, it's early spring, and Windy City is held around this time every time."
"Are you participating this year?"
"No, the old arms and legs can run, let the children play."
"Also, I wonder what kind of paper kite will appear this year? I still remember that the last kite contest was a person who made a beautiful paper kite and won the first place. ”
"Last time, the first place was the biggest paper kite I've ever seen."
“······”
Midsummer couldn't help but think silently, it seems that this paper kite competition is not only for adventurers like them to participate.
And it seems that you still need to make your own.
"Xia Xia, what are they talking about paper kites?" Xiaofeng naturally heard the chatting of those people, and was very curious to ask Midsummer.
Midsummer thought about it, but still didn't know how to explain it to Xiaofeng, and finally could only say: "The paper kite is made of bamboo strips and paper, connected to the line, we can take the wind and put it in the sky." ”
"Is it fun?" Xiaohe answered on the side.
"It's fun, of course it's fun." Although she herself did not fly a kite in her previous life, in the park, there are people who fly it whenever the wind is stronger, adults and children, running, chasing, so unhappy.
Every time she saw it, she was envious.
"Xia Xia, let's go to the paper kite competition too." Xiaofeng expected.
"Okay." I didn't let it go in my previous life, and I believe it must be a very happy thing to put it together with Xiaofeng Xiaohe in this life.
Midsummer, Yu Guang just saw that the two middle-aged men who had just been chatting on the side were about to leave.
She walked up quickly and asked very politely, "Hello two uncles, I just heard that the two of you were discussing the paper kite competition." I heard that this paper kite contest needs to make paper kites by yourself, I wonder if it is convenient to tell where this production material is sold? ”
The two middle-aged men stopped leaving and turned their heads to look at Midsummer.
It turned out to be a little girl, and the two of them saw that Midsummer was polite, and they were willing to answer for her: "You can go to Wentian Street to see the materials made of paper kites, there is a paper kite shop there, and there are materials for sale." ”
Midsummer heard a joy and was about to say thanks.
At this time, another man next to him asked, "Little girl, are you going to participate in this paper kite competition?" ”
Midsummer nodded yes.
"That little girl needs to prepare well, now there are more and more people participating in the paper kite competition, and if you want to stand out, this paper kite must be unique and unexpected."
Midsummer nodded like a teachable person and thanked him before leaving.
Since he was already outside, Sheng Xia simply walked directly to Wentian Street.
It didn't take much effort, and Midsummer soon found a paper kite shop on Wentian Street.
I saw that the shop was full of all kinds of kites, one by one hanging on the wall, so that customers could choose from them.
Midsummer only glanced at it a few times, and then turned his gaze to a young shopkeeper in the shop.
I saw the man's hands constantly fiddling with the bamboo strips in his hands, folding, pressing, and bundling, and a butterfly frame was tied out in a few clicks.
Midsummer stood quietly on the side, staring at each other's hands, forgetting even the purpose of entering the store.
The shopkeeper saw that she didn't speak for a long time, and just as the frame was completed, he looked up at her directly.
"What does the girl need to buy? The paper kites in this shop are all tied by me, you can take a look at them casually. ”
Midsummer only reacted at this time, pursed her lips, and was a little embarrassed.
She was stunned just now, too, such a good craft, isn't it stunned for her who has never seen anyone before!
"I want to buy the materials to make paper kites, do you have them?"
"Wait a minute." Turning around, he took out a small cloth bag from the cabinet next to him, which contained a stack of materials that had already been arranged.
The cloth bag is placed on the table, and the shopkeeper introduces it to the same as midsummer, which is thin iron wire, rice cereal, bamboo strips, etc.
The shopkeeper saw that Sheng Xia was a scholar, so he carefully explained it to her one by one.
Sheng Xia listened very carefully on the side, I haven't seen a pig run so hard that I haven't eaten pork, after the introduction of the shopkeeper, she roughly knows how to use these materials, and she is familiar with it after she goes back, no problem.
"Do you understand?" The main reason is that Midsummer's serious attitude makes the shopkeeper also have a concerned mind.
Midsummer nodded.
The shopkeeper also nodded, and tied the cloth bag again: "This is a material, you can only make a paper kite, do you want to buy a few more?" ”
Midsummer thought about it, since he decided to participate in the competition, he had never made a paper kite, and it was normal to fail a few times, and that material was really not enough.
Thinking so, she said to the shopkeeper; "Get me 5 more."
Not enough to come again.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper turned around again and took out five small cloth bags and handed them to Midsummer.
After putting things in the backpack, Midsummer didn't leave right away.
She still stood aside and watched the shopkeeper make paper kites, but the shopkeeper didn't care too much about midsummer, and continued to finish the half-made paper kites.
In this way, in the next ten minutes, Midsummer witnessed the birth of a beautiful butterfly paper kite.
"That's amazing!" Midsummer couldn't help but admire.
After hearing this, the shopkeeper laughed lightly: "If you do more, you will be proficient, if you practice more, you can be like me." ”
When Sheng Xia heard this, although he felt that this was just a comfort from the other party, he still slowly gained fighting spirit in his heart.
Yes, as long as she studies hard and practices a lot, she will definitely be able to make one, well~ Her requirements are not high, she doesn't want to compare with this shopkeeper, as long as a paper kite that can fly high.
After that, the shopkeeper saw that Midsummer was still interested, so he simply took her to admire the paper kites in his store.
It is worthy of selling paper kites, and when she first came in, she just looked at it casually, and was not careful.
Now with the introduction of the shopkeeper, she knows that there are really too many types of paper kites, simple as a geometric figure, complex with people, animals and so on.
Intricate, bizarre, complex and varied, you can see almost anything you can think of.
Midsummer imagines how beautiful it would be if you put all these paper kites in the sky!
A short time later, a man came in with a child to pick out paper kites.
In order not to delay the shopkeeper's business, Midsummer left after thanking him.
I thought I would go back to the courtyard directly, but I didn't expect to receive another message halfway, which was a system notification.
There was a package at the post station, let her pick it up as soon as possible.
Sheng Xia suddenly remembered that when Sheng Shi Wu chatted yesterday, he said that he would send her a package today, but he didn't expect it to arrive so soon.
So I turned around and went to the post station to pick up the package.
These days, we have been staying in Baixiang Town, which produces a variety of fruits throughout the year, so that they can be used so that they are not wasted.
The people of the town have built all kinds of processing factories, canning factories, preserved fruit processing factories, dried fruit processing factories and so on.
The packages sent by Shengshi Wuwu are all kinds of fruit products that she specially bought, and I heard that they are very delicious.
Sure enough, when I opened the package, I saw that it was full of them, and Midsummer was said to be greedy by Sheng Shi Wuwu yesterday, so he didn't care about the image, and directly picked up a piece of preserved fruit with his hand and put it in his mouth.
It's delicious!
It was just a small piece, and she was fascinated by the sweet and sour taste, and Midsummer showed an expression of enjoyment, and stuffed many pieces into her mouth.
Xiaofeng and Xiaohe on the side stared at Midsummer in a daze, and they all swallowed their saliva involuntarily.
Xiaofeng directly pulled Shengxia's hair with the leaves, and said eagerly: "Xia Xia, Xia Xia, I want it too, I want it too." ”
Midsummer happily took a piece and quietly handed it to Xiaofeng, and naturally did not forget Xiaohe.
It's delicious!
Xiaofeng and Xiaohe let out the same sigh as Midsummer.
At this time, the system "dropped" sounded.
Midsummer guessed that it was a message sent to her by Sheng Shi Wuwu, and it was right.
"Sister Xia, have you received the package I sent you?"
"I received it, I tasted it, it was so delicious!"
"Haha, I'll just say it's delicious, I'll stay here in the near future, tell me when I'm done, and I'll send it to you."
"Uh-huh, thank you for worry-free."
"Sister Xia and I are polite, by the way, today's announcement said that a paper kite competition will be held, I went to ask someone, and I learned that paper kite is commonly known as a harrier.
Use thin bamboo as the bone, tie it into a bird shape, paste paper or thin silk on it, tie a thread at one end, and lead the wire to ride the wind. There are also various shapes such as butterflies, centipedes, beauties, stars, and moons. (Quote)
I heard that this competition will also make paper kites on the spot, is Sister Xia going to participate?
Anti-theft, anti-theft, anti-theft.
