Chapter 184: Festival

At that time, the three parties sent people to search for the whereabouts of the two at the same time, and agreed that either party would notify the other two sides in time as soon as there was news.

As soon as Duan Shaoling heard the news that he had found the two, he happened to be in the southwest and rushed over to meet the two non-stop.

The three of them saw each other, and they hugged and laughed in excitement. After entering the house, Chen Zui introduced the Morida family to Duan Shaoling, and roughly told him about the events of the past two months.

Duan Shaoling said: "It's hard for us to be in suspense day and night outside, I don't want you two to be so comfortable here, should we come back for a while?" ”

Chen Zui hurriedly said: "What's the matter, if you don't come, we plan to leave the day after tomorrow." But since you're here, why don't you stay and join us for tomorrow's festival, and we'll go together the day after tomorrow. ”

Morida's family was hospitable, so Duan Shaoling must stay, and Duan Shaoling did not refuse.

At this time, it was the beginning of summer in June, and tonight the sky was full of stars, lighting up the whole sky, but unfortunately there was no lawn outside for them to lie down and look up, fortunately, the window of Chen Zui's room was facing an open place outside, and a piece of stars could be seen.

The two of them were lying on the bed looking at the stars in the sky, and they could still hear the sound of Xia Cicada "chirping", and they couldn't help but recall many things in the past.

After a while, Duan Shaoling suddenly said: "I came this time and found that Cheng Jing has become different, she is talking and laughing with that little girl, and I feel from her face that she is very happy now." ”

Chen Zui said lazily: "It's not that Cheng Jing has changed, it's that this place really makes people forget their troubles, to be honest, if it weren't for my father, I would have wanted to be happy here." ”

Duan Shaoling shook his head, "Not really, since I met Cheng Jing, there has always been a sharp spirit in her eyes, and after she became the commander-in-chief, that sharp spirit has evolved into a domineering spirit that competes for the world." But when I saw Cheng Jing tonight, she couldn't see the edge in her eyes anymore, and she was no different from ordinary people. ”

Chen Zui said: "This situation can only last until tomorrow night, and when we leave here, everything will return to the original point, and there will be no change in the slightest." ”

Duan Shaoling asked again: "You shouldn't have mentioned Chu Xian's last words to Cheng Jing, right?" ”

Chen Zui was silent for a while, and sighed, "After tomorrow, I will go back to Pingle Town, and I will never see each other again with Cheng Jing, what is the point of saying or not saying it, after all, it is just a beautiful fantasy of Chu Xian, how can it be realized?" ”

Duan Shaoling thought for a while, and then said: "Then let me ask you one more question, you have to answer me truthfully, if Cheng Jing is really willing to let go of everything, is there still a chance between you?" ”

Chen Zui hesitated for a while, but still shook his head, "Don't say that if your case is not true, even if it is true, we will not have a chance." ”

Duan Shaoling said: "Why? Cheng Jing still loves you in her heart, do you really have no feelings for her in your heart? ”

Chen Zui felt sour in his heart, and said slowly: "The moment Chu Xian died, my heart had already followed her, so it's not that I didn't answer you truthfully, it was that I couldn't answer." ”

Duan Shaoling didn't ask any more.

The next morning, just after seven o'clock, they were woken up by the commotion of people outside, as if a lot of people were moving, and they could no longer sleep, so they had to get up.

Walking out of the door, Morida's family was already busy bringing glutinous rice to the river, full of three large buckets, steaming and fragrant, and Li Chengjing was also helping to pack it.

Chen Zui said apologetically: "There are so many preparations, why don't you wake us up and help together?" After speaking, the two came over to help Li Chengjing pack together.

Morida only smiled, "It's out of the way, we prepare like this every year, and it's just in time." ”

Several people worked together to help, and the division of labor was clear, and it only took an hour to pack all the sticky rice in the bamboo tube.

By the time they reached the river, the crowd around them was already densely packed, and there were all kinds of food on the long table.

After putting down the food, Morida and his son went to the side to prepare to participate in the wooden boat race, Zhengling ran to the right with ease, and Li Chengjing saw that there were all children over there.

The three of them walked straight ahead, heard the sound of clapping hands from time to time in the crowd, and squeezed in to see that there was a wrestling match being held here.

They asked the others in a low voice, and they told them that the rule was that two people wrestled, the winner continued to challenge, and the loser was eliminated, and the winner could only challenge three times, and the winner had an additional ten yuan bonus in addition to honor.

At the same time, it also stipulates that as long as the opponent falls to the ground, if the shot is too heavy, causing the opponent to not get up, or even seriously injured, then winning is also considered a loss, not only that, but also responsible for the other party, of course, the losing side must also admit defeat immediately, can not be brutal.

In addition, there is an unwritten rule: the winners who win three games in a row can also compete with each other, and the winner is determined by the bet is the ten yuan in their hands, which is all voluntary, and cannot force others to compare.

The three of them watched for a while, and saw that they were all on point, the winner was not arrogant, the loser was not angry, although it was a game, it was very harmonious.

Chen was so itchy that he wanted to play and compete with them. Duan Shaoling hurriedly stopped him, firstly, he had just recovered from his serious injuries and could not fight ruthlessly, and secondly, he was a person who had practiced martial arts, and once he launched a ruthless attack, it was easy to accidentally injure others. Li Chengjing also persuaded him not to play, and Chen Zui had to continue to watch the excitement.

At this time, Zhengling suddenly ran to Li Chengjing with a face full of grievances, Li Chengjing thought that she was being bullied by other children and was about to condole, Zhengling pulled Li Chengjing to the side.

When she arrived, Li Chengjing saw rows of balloons on a wooden shelf, and as long as she broke five balloons in a row with a toy gun, she could get a small gift.

Every time she plays, she has to give the boss five cents, and the reason why Zhengling is aggrieved is because she can't win five in a row after playing four times, so she asked Li Chengjing for help.

Li Chengjing paid the boss a dollar, and then taught Zhengling hand in hand, first to concentrate and eyesight, and then connect the center of the muzzle and the balloon into a point, and charge the gun.

Zhengling's spirit is very concentrated, and after five or six shots, she can already understand the true meaning.

Li Chengjing suddenly remembered Leng Chuxian again, remembered the situation when she taught her marksmanship, and taught her like this, she was also very focused and learned quickly.

It was Zhengling's cheers that broke Li Chengjing's memories, and Li Chengjing saw that she had hit the five shots in the back, and the boss gave her a beautiful doll.

Zhengling is not a greedy person, and she won't continue to play anymore if she gets a doll.

Suddenly a drum beat behind "Knock Knock".

"Ah, the boat race is on, let's go cheer on my grandpa and dad." pulled Li Chengjing and ran again.

Chen Zui and Duan Shaoling were still watching the game with great interest, but they were also called by them to help.

Two small wooden boats, four boats at a time, rowed from the starting point to ten meters after the entrance of the cave and back, and the first to return to the starting point wins. There are four groups in total, and the first place in each group will also play the final finals, and Morida and his son are placed in the third group.

No matter which group played, several of them helped shout and cheer, and when Morida and his son came on the field, they shouted hoarsely, and finally their father and son lived up to their expectations, first won the first place in the group, and finally won the ultimate first place, but several of them were already dry at this time.

At noon, the scene is like a flowing water seat, whoever comes to the long table first sits down to eat first, and after eating, walks away, and lets the people behind come up, and every household has prepared enough food, and the supply is endless.

At 2 p.m. it was Marseille, with three rings, each about 1,000 metres in circumference, with a total of four crossbars on the trail. There was also a target at the end of each runway, but instead of shooting bows and arrows, it was an awl arrow loaded from the wooden guns they had here.

Registered contestants have to go to the stable at the east end of the Dadu River to choose their favorite horses, each person rides three laps, each circle shoots an arrow, the criterion for winning is to look at the time first, if the time difference is almost the same, see who shoots the highest number of rings wins, the winner has a prize of 50 yuan.

After watching a few games, Li Chengjing suddenly said happily: "Chen Zui, Shaoling, the three of us also go up to compare, after so many years, I want to see how your riding and archery kung fu is improving." ”

Chen Zui was overjoyed: "Shaoling, Cheng Jing is so interested, we can't ruin her interest." ”

Duan Shaoling also said: "Everyone in the world says that Cheng Jing's marksmanship is unmatched, and today is the right time to see it." ”

When Zhengling heard that the three of them were about to play, she applauded: "Okay! Sister Chengjing, you must win the first place. ”

Chen Zui bent down and touched her head, and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhengling, you just want Sister Chengjing to win, don't you want Brother Chen Zui to win?" ”

Zhengling's brain spun quickly, and she hurriedly smiled: "I mean, my brother and sister will definitely win." ”

Li Chengjing said: "Let's see the real chapter on the field." "Pull Zhengling," Wait for my sister to come back with the first place to show you. ”

The three of them chose their horses and returned to the field, and as soon as the whistle blew, the three of them rode away.

At first, Chen Zui was ahead of the two, and the horse's hooves crossed the first crossbar, and the two caught up. Chen Zui tried his best to get rid of the two again, but the two chased after them and chased after them fiercely. After that, the three of them did not give in to each other, but remained almost in a straight line.

But seeing the sound of horses' hooves on the field, flying sand and stones, and the same three horsemen on the field, the three of them had the momentum of thousands of horses, which attracted the enthusiasm of the surrounding audience and cheered constantly.

There were still about thirty meters from the finish line, Li Chengjing leaned on the horse's back and fired the first shot, "The center of the ten rings." The audience screamed. Chen Duan and the others followed closely behind, and the two shots were "boom", which was also the center of the Ten Rings, and the audience screamed again and again.

When it came to the second circle, the three of them fired pistols almost at the same time, and Chen Duan and the two of them were in the middle of the tenth ring, and when they saw it, they were shocked to see that Li Chengjing's arrow was embedded in the tail end of the first arrow.

On the last lap, the three of them arrived at the finish line at about the same time, and Chen Duan and the two of them were in the middle of the tenth ring, and once again saw Li Chengjing's third arrow embedded in the tail end of the second arrow.

"Good!" The audience ushered in the most shocking screams and applause.

The three of them won at the same time, Chen Duan and the others knew in their hearts that Li Chengjing's three shots were one point at the same time, and the score was exactly the same, which was really higher than them, and the two were convinced by her.
