One hundred and ninety-one, under the spring sacrifice

"Ah, you see, the scriptures over there have begun to put Kong Ming lanterns. The lights are so beautiful, let's go over. I asked Ziyuan to wait there with a few Kong Ming lanterns. Ning Yan had just finished eating a piece of tofu in his mouth, and this night, Ning Yan never stopped eating.

"Okay, then we'll go over now." Of the two, only Su Qin responded. Zheng Wan walked behind with a serious face, holding her hands around, with an aura that no one should disturb.

"Kong Ming lantern is also known as wishing lantern. In addition to the army to release the lantern to transmit signals, the people put the lantern for blessings, men, women and children write down their blessings by hand, symbolizing the success of the harvest and happiness every year. Ning Yan said with joy.

"It's just self-deception." Zheng Wan was embarrassed to speak, and her expression was full of disdain.

"Why are you deceiving yourself?" Ning Yan was a little unconvinced. "That's all the hope that people pinned their hopes on."

"If you want to get something, you have to fight for it, pray to the heavens and pray for the earth, but it is just a manifestation of incompetence, if everyone relies on this boring ritual to get what they think, in this way, heaven and earth will not be busy to death."

Ning Yan was speechless for a while. "But, yes, but people always have to have hope. Everyone will always have someone or something they want to protect. It's a way to express hope. ”

Wish? Guard? Oh, my brother is gone, the people I want to protect are gone, the moment my brother sacrifices, it is the day my heart dies, brother, I often think of you, are you okay over there? Can you wait for me on the Huangquan Road. Shall we be brothers and sisters again in the next life? Emperor Qin Wen, Qin Mingde! Why do you live so freely? Zheng Wan's hands couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Shouyun, for example, you are the person I want to protect." Ning Yan's eyes were very bright when he said this.

Zheng Wan looked at her sister who had inexplicably become the focus with a faint expression. This man often says things like this, inexplicably.

Ning Yan gently patted Zheng Wan's back. "So, everyone should take a good look at the people around them, and you will find so many people who love you and care about you. The living are like this, the dead are dead, some things should be put down or put down, and life has to look forward. ”

Zheng Wan was shocked in her heart, this sister seemed to be able to perceive what she was thinking, and the weirdness she had been giving herself hit again. Zheng Ling? Who are you and what do you mean? I really can't see through you.

"Shouyun, I think what Miss Zheng Ling said is reasonable. The blessing of Kong Ming lantern is just a heart, a kind of good expectation. Su Qin looked at Zheng Wan with some pity. What happened to Zheng Wan that made her so guarded. "Hope, though it sounds ethereal. But it is precisely because of hope that everyone is working harder to find a way to realize it. ”

Expectation, hope, Zheng Wan suddenly felt a little in a trance, and the little brother she met at the Lantern Festival that year in her memory also said similar things. Zheng Wan swallowed her saliva, "Then Master Su, what is hope for you?" ”

"Hope is to do what you want to do with good intentions." Su Qin paused, "Whether it's good times or bad times, you need hope." In good times, you want to get more, you yearn for a better life, and in bad times, you believe that you can get through it. ”

"Master Su, do you often say these things to others? The so-called hope? ”

"Huh?" Su Qin was stunned, he never expected Zheng Wan to ask such a question. "It shouldn't be much."

Zheng Wan looked at Su Qin, and couldn't help but have some expectations in her heart, wanting to ask him if he was the little brother when he was a child, but he didn't ask. What if you ask? How's that? Isn't it? It doesn't seem to matter. Zheng Wan's thoughts drifted far away.

"Shouyun, why are you looking at me like this?" Su Qin couldn't see through the meaning in Zheng Wan's eyes.

"It's nothing, but it's just an old man." Zheng Wan turned her head and looked at the Kong Ming lantern slowly rising not far away, hope. "If you want, let it go, and the hour will not be early. I'll have to be busy tomorrow. ”

"It's here. The venue is really spacious and suitable for putting Kong Ming lanterns. Ning Yan went straight to where Feng Ziyuan was standing.

"Fourth Miss." Feng Ziyuan stood tall there.

"Exactly four, one for each person." Ning Yan chose a lamp painted with a water-blue sky, and the fiery red Bi Fang jumped up, and the flames on his wings came to life.

"You don't have to give it to me." Zheng Wan still looked cold. It seems that that conversation did not move her.

"Give." Ning Yan said to herself and stuffed a red lamp into Zheng Wan's hand. "I don't care, believe it or not, what does it have to do with me, this lamp was given by Lord Tang, what you want to do with it is your own business, I will not interfere. I'm not talking to the two of you, I'll go and put it first, and you can ink slowly. After saying that, Ning Yan ran away. Zheng Wan's face suddenly became embarrassed. Holding the lamp in his hand, he was at a loss.

After finding an open space, Ning Yan carefully lit the lamp. Holding the Kong Ming lantern, he silently recited his wish in his heart. Slowly release your hand. God, you must take good care of Zheng Wan, she is so arrogant, when will she be able to open her heart and leave a little space for us.

"Since your sister gave it to you, why don't you have a good experience!" Su Qin looked at Zheng Wan with affection in his eyes. "It's also considered to be a local custom."

Zheng Wan looked at Kong Ming Lantern faintly, with a sneer in her heart, she still remembered the state of mind of putting the lotus lantern that year, if she could really realize her wish, how could her brother say that it would be gone, it was ridiculous. What hope, what protection, these blessings are all used to deceive people, and the gods are high, how can they look down and look down. In this world, only oneself is strong. in order to protect the people you want to protect.

Zheng Wan stuffed the Kong Ming lantern to Feng Ziyuan. "It's boring!" After saying that, he turned around and left, without a trace of nostalgia. Brother, I didn't even say the hope I had promised, and you left me. You've broken your promise. Su Qin looked at Zheng Wan's departing back, why was that back full of sadness. Zheng Wan, what the hell are you thinking?

"Master Su, why haven't you put it yet? Shouyun, how did she go? Ning Yan finished putting on the lamp, full of smiles, and hurried back.

"I don't know, she seems to be sad." Su Qin was full of worries.

Saddened? Why? Zheng Wan's hope, is it, Zheng Pingsheng? Ning Yan's face turned a little pale. It's been more than a year since things passed, when will she be able to let go of this taboo. People can't be resurrected after death, so why should they immerse themselves in it and can't extricate themselves. Zheng Pingsheng, if you knew that your sister was like this, would you still go back as you wish?

"Let's go back too, it's not too early." Su Qin Sijing was a little absent-minded.

"Hmm. Good. Let's go back. The two were relatively silent. Ning Yan's mood also became bad. Originally, he took Zheng Wan to relax, but he still got into trouble. Hey, Zheng Ling, I really can't help you!
