Ye Liancheng pouted, this businessman is really a set behind the surface, if he said that he would guess a few more riddles, it is estimated that he would turn his face with himself on the spot.

However, it has to be said that the merchant's means of pleasing his guests are indeed good, and he packed these two small objects in a delicate wooden box, which is similar to the wooden box of the same material as the wooden card, and the estimated value is about the same as the contents inside.

After the three of them sent it, Ye Liancheng handed over the two wooden boxes to the two women, "It should be a gift for your autumn equinox, don't dislike Ang, there is no new one." ”

Hongying smiled softly and put away the wooden box with satisfaction.

Bai Shui's head on the side shook like a rattle, and she said again and again: "Childe, don't worry, Bai Shui likes this mirror very much, and he will definitely not dislike it!"

A lonely look flashed on Ye Liancheng's face, pretending to be sad, "It turns out that you don't like it because of your son." ”

"Huh?" A big question mark flashed on Bai Shui's face, and he didn't know how to answer Ye Liancheng, but he didn't want Ye Liancheng to misunderstand in his heart, so he explained a little anxiously: "Childe, I... That was not what I meant. ”

This helpless appearance caused Hongying and Ye Liancheng to smile in unison.

"By the way, how long are you two going to hold my hand?" Ye Liancheng's words made the two girls let go of their hands at the same time...

Not far from the three of them, there was a man watching their backs, and he didn't plan to follow them any longer.

Yu Lao's eyes showed a look of envy, and he said a little sourly: "That's it, people are old, how can they compare with young people." ”

After saying that, he changed his direction and began to wander around the lantern festival by himself.

Tonight's Lantern Festival is like the New Year, everyone is dressed up, some even put on new clothes, like Yu Lao, it is rare to wear tattered clothes.

So many people took a detour when they saw him, and even some well-wishers threw out a few copper coins like Yu Lao, and said before leaving: "It's really pitiful, I came out to ask for food at the autumn equinox..."

This sentence stunned Yu Lao for a moment, and he wanted to reply with dignity, 'Ye is not asking for food', but after seeing the copper coins on the ground, he couldn't move his feet.

Alas, really, didn't you say that you won't do your old job. Yu Lao smashed his mouth and muttered as he picked up the copper coins in his hand.

"I bought a sugar gourd, a delicious sugar gourd!" The vendor carrying the sugar gourd happened to pass by Yu Lao at this time, Yu Lao looked at the brightly colored sugar gourd and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

It didn't take long for an old beggar to walk and eat with a sugar gourd in front of the riddle guessing shop, and he was eating the sugar gourd in his hand while looking at the charade.

"Phew, young people nowadays are so stupid that they can't even guess such a simple anagram. Yu Lao looked at the person who was scratching his ears and cheeks, and couldn't think of the answer to the mystery, and whispered.

Even so, this was heard by a person who was watching the excitement like him, who turned around and asked curiously, "Do you know the answer to this anagram." ”

Tsk, Yu Lao looked embarrassed, he didn't expect that his brain was not good but his ears were quite bright, so he had to reply: "I don't know." ”

"Cut, I thought you were the same as the boy in white. The man said disdainfully, and began to compare Yu Lao with Ye Liancheng.

Yu Lao's eyes lit up, he followed Ye Liancheng, knowing what was happening, he ate the last hawthorn on the skewers, tilted his head, puffed up his chest, and said to the man:

"The man you are talking about is my apprentice!"

This momentum also frightened the man, and the middle-aged man's expression changed from shock to disgust after a while, and he waved his hand and said, "Pull you down, you can brag!"

Yu Lao was like a deflated ball, dissatisfied with the imposing appearance just now, bent over and bent his waist, and turned around to leave here.

It seems that he hasn't officially taught Ye Liancheng anything. This matter came to Yu Lao's mind just now, and strictly speaking, he was not a master, so he didn't argue with that person, otherwise he would definitely be able to make that person embarrassed with his three-inch incorruptible tongue.

Well, after leaving Chaofeng City, he began to officially teach that kid to practice swords.

Thinking of Ye Liancheng's appearance with a knife, Yu Lao pursed his lips disdainfully, as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly, "This is to let people know that I am his master, and I must not make people laugh and lose their big teeth." ”

After staying in Chaofeng City for so long, the things that Yu Lao had to do were almost done, and he must be able to continue his trip a few days after the Lantern Festival.

It's just that before that, you have to deal with a few annoying bugs... Yu Lao's eyes froze, as soon as it was night tonight, there were several people who had been following him.

The pace suddenly increased, and sure enough, the people also quickened their pace, they were obviously professionally trained, and they walked quickly through the crowd in black robes, without attracting anyone's attention, like the shadow of Yu Lao, following him all the time.

After a long time, there were fewer and fewer people around, and Yu Lao's pace gradually slowed down, and he came to a dead end.

The people who followed him were not familiar with the terrain of Chaofeng City, and when they saw Yu Lao entering an alley, they thought they were going to lose it, so they sped up, and the five of them rushed into the alley together.

There are no lanterns in the alleys, and only moonlight reaches the alleys where the five people are interested in at night.

The five of them explained Su Ze's shadow guards, and they were ordered to track Yu Lao's movements and report to Su Ze every day.

At first, several people were worried, a Yu Lao was a hidden master, and even the dragon was very jealous of him.

But after following him for a few days, they found out that this was a sloppy old man, who had never been lost, and he had never noticed the shadow guards, so the five shadow guards relaxed their vigilance, which led to the current scene.

The five people rushed into the dead end, and Yu Lao stood in the alley and did not leave, but turned to face the five people.

The incident happened suddenly, the shadow guard is good at tracking and concealing spy intelligence, not fighting and assassinating, the five of them did not have any verbal communication, but in an instant, they all decided to evacuate here, and the tracking mission was a complete failure.

However, the time of a stick of incense passed, and the five of them were still standing in place as if they were old monks, maintaining the posture of just rushing in.

At this time, Yu Lao said faintly, "What do you say these people are for, don't you bother wearing a black robe every day." ”
