Chapter 201: Lantern Festival (4)
There are a total of nine floors in the Lantern Mountain, and lanterns are placed on each floor. Vertices
The lower the number of layers, the more lanterns.
When you get to the top floor, there are only nine lanterns.
Because this floor is as high as the sky, these nine lanterns are also called sky lanterns.
It is named "Picking Sky Lanterns" in the name of the event.
Huadeng Mountain is not actually a real mountain, but a magic artifact.
Therefore, looking at the lantern mountain outside the magic vessel, it is only a few zhang square and a few zhang high.
But inside, it's a majestic mountain that you can't really look up again.
And it can accommodate hundreds of people to climb the mountain at the same time.
There are more than 200 men who participated in the 'Sky Lantern Picking', and after queuing up at the entrance to enter the Lantern Mountain, the people outside can clearly see the situation inside, and the people inside cannot know the news outside.
"It's amazing," Zhou Jiaying sighed, "everyone looks shrunk." ”
"Brother Cheng climbed the fastest," Li Shiqing said, "He really deserves to be the champion." ”
"That is, climbing a mountain is a piece of cake for Brother Lan Yuan."
"It is said that Huadeng Mountain is not an ordinary mountain," Jiang Shuxin looked at it with fascination, "Each layer has different obstacles, and the higher you go, the more difficult it becomes." ”
"You can't use spiritual power," Jiang Shuli commented, "It's not easy to climb to the highest level." It is necessary to have a strong enough physique, dexterity and perseverance. ”
"It's a pity that women can't participate in mountain climbing."
With a clear and bright voice with a deep sigh, Lan Haihua walked behind everyone at some point.
"Lan Haihua," Zhou Jiaying teased, "If you can, I'm afraid you'll be the first to sign up, right?" ”
"Of course." Lan Haihua grinned.
It is lively here, and it is even more vigorous on the lantern mountain over there.
Many young people, led by Cheng Lanyuan, moved and leaped, and kept climbing up in the rocky jungle.
The first three floors weren't too difficult, but half of them had already reached the third floor in half an hour.
And then as we go on, there are fewer and fewer people.
When they reached the seventh floor, there were only about 20 people left.
"Brother Cheng, let's not go up," several fellow students who followed behind Cheng Lanyuan arched their hands and said with a wry smile, "The seventh layer is already the limit, and there is nothing you can do if you go up." ”
Cheng Lanyuan arched his hand and replied, "Don't go first, Brother Lu," he looked at Lu Yin, who was still unsatisfied, "Are we two on the same journey?" ”
"Always by side." Lu Yinlang smiled.
On the other side, Li Xu and Li Chu also went up to the seventh floor together.
Li Xu glanced at Li Chu's brocade robe that had been torn by Gangfeng, and teased, "Brother Four Emperors have to thank me, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be covered when I go down the mountain." ”
Above the sixth floor, the wind began to rise, and it was said that it would reach its strongest state when it reached the ninth floor.
The wind is cold, and it is not a problem to tear the robe.
It is because people who participate in the 'sky lantern picking' activity will be given a gown, for no other reason than that the participants are afraid that the participants will run down the mountain unclothed and obstruct the view.
The gown with the words 'picking up the sky lantern' looks ordinary, but it is actually made of fine shark silk, and it is not afraid of the wind.
Li Chu lowered his head and looked at the gown in disgust, "I'd rather not be clothed." ”
made Li Xu laugh.
"Let's go, let's move on!"
In addition to these two teams, on the other side, a lone figure climbed to the seventh floor at about the same time.
He rested for a while, then continued upward.
"Who's that?"
Li Xu inadvertently saw the man while climbing, and squinted his eyes to identify it carefully.
Li Chu looked over when he heard this, "It seems to be Du Ping." ”
"Dupin?" That prodigal?
The corners of Li Xu's mouth hooked, and he didn't care much, "Fourth Emperor Brother, let's see who gets to the eighth layer first!" ”
By the eighth floor, the number had plummeted to less than ten.
Those who have the strength to continue climbing do not say more, save enough energy, exchange glances with each other, and then go straight forward.
The ninth layer is the cliff that leads to the sky, in which the wind and hail are interspersed, and it is difficult to climb to the sky.
In the end, there were only five people who climbed to the ninth floor to obtain the sky lantern, namely Cheng Lanyuan, Lu Yin, Li Xu, Li Chu and Du Ping.
The five of them descended the mountain, and as soon as they stepped out of the exit, they were greeted with thunderous applause.
Cheng Lanyuan was the first to go out.
"Cheng Dazhuangyuan bravely picked up the sky lantern, congratulations!"
I don't know which talented brother turned into an interviewer and stopped in front of Cheng Lanyuan and smiled brightly, "I don't know if Cheng Da Zhuangyuan's sky lantern is going to be given to his sweetheart?" ”
Cheng Lanyuan looked at the curious crowd in front of him, and said without hesitation, "Give it to my wife who is about to pass through the door." ”
There was a commotion.
"Cheng Da Zhuangyuan's wife who has not passed through the door," the talented brother obviously came prepared, "but the eldest girl Ouyang in the old mansion of Ouyang Pavilion?" ”
Cheng Lanyuan smiled and bowed, "Exactly." ”
"Sure enough, she is a talented woman, and she is a beautiful person from the sky! I heard that the two of them both got treasures at the San Lang banquet, which is really a good couple! ”
Cheng Lanyuan smiled and retreated.
The next one to appear was Lu Yin.
"Master Lu, this sky lantern is going to be given to your sweetheart?" The talented brothers grabbed Lu Yin and persevered to question the masses.
Lu Yin's gaze slid over the crowd in the field, and he smiled slightly, "I'm going to bring it back to the mansion." ”
"It seems that the eldest prince of Lu has not yet found a new world," the talented brother is like discovering a new world, "The girls present have a chance!" ”
Another burst of laughter.
Li Xu and Li Chu looked at each other as early as when Cheng Lanyuan was pulled for an interview, and the moment they stepped out of the exit, the two of them flashed away.
"What a pity! The two princes, His Royal Highnesses, who we picked up the sky lanterns, may have important tasks to do and have no time to stay. ”
"Hey, this is ......" The talented brother sensitively grabbed Du Ping, who also wanted to run away, Du Shizi, the Marquis of Linshan!"
"Who is Du Shizi going to give this sky lantern to?"
Du Ping saw that he hadn't dodged, so he generously stayed, and his peach blossom eyes widened, "Who does this brother think he will give it to next?" ”
"Du Shizi is suave, Yushu is in the wind, there must be a lot of phases, okay? Afraid that a sky lantern is not enough? "Talented brothers don't talk to death.
Du Ping's eyes narrowed slightly, "It seems that Brother Tai is very jealous." ”
Another burst of laughter.
The talented brother scratched his head, "Look, my careful thinking was discovered by Brother Du!" ”
Du Ping looked around, "Today, I will pick the most beautiful girl on the spot and send it out, what do you think?" ”
"Good!"
"This is good!"
"It couldn't be better!"
"It deserves to be Du Shizi!"
Wave after wave.
Du Ping held the lantern and walked quickly into the crowd.
The crowd automatically moved an aisle.
"For you."
Du Ping walked up to the moon lady and stuffed the lantern into her hand.
Yue Niangzi's eyes widened, and she lowered her voice and said, "Du Ping, what are you crazy about." ”
Du Ping shrugged, "Look at this posture, if this lamp is not sent out, I am afraid that I will not be able to return home." I'll give it to you. ”
"Who wants you to send it?"
The moon lady wanted to stuff the lantern back, and the crowd was boiling again.
"Take it!"
"Take it!"
Yue Niangzi was blushing by a pair of eyes, her beautiful eyes glared at Du Ping fiercely, and she grabbed An Niangzi and said, "Let's go back!" ”
