The top was very narrow, even if it was crowded next to each other, there were only two or three people standing, and several small servants of Chengying and Ruan Seventeen were lined up from the steps in turn, waiting to listen to the orders, Ruan Seventeen and Lu Yi went up to the top of the tower, and looked out through the very narrow windows in all directions.

The window is not pasted with window paper, let alone veil, and it is very clear to see the outside.

In the Beidi Temple, crowded with people, the flow of people is divided into two streams, both are like the tide, one goes in, one goes out, these two tides start from the mountain, all the way into the Beidi Temple, from the temple to the east, to the last major hall, after the two tides are mixed and chaotic, from east to west, and then flow down.

Around the Beidi Temple, the Taoist priests and the monks who came to help had already pulled up the colored flags and stopped the pilgrims, and there was a patient monk standing not far away, tirelessly instructing the pilgrims to go forward and go down to the mountain gate.

The gathering and dispersion of the tide are at the foot of the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain is the real excitement.

The mountain where the Beidi Temple is located is not high, and there is a slightly higher mountain to the north.

In front of the Beidi Temple Mountain Gate, less than one mile away from Nan'an City to the south, it is the North City Gate of Nan'an City, from the Beidi Temple Mountain Gate to the North City Gate, this mile of the road is the most lively place of the Beidi Temple Fair every year.

At this time, not far from the mountain gate, four stages have been set up in turn, and they are already babbling and singing.

The best window to see the mountain gate was occupied by Lu Yi, Ruan Seventeen looked here, looked there, couldn't see it all, wanted to stick his head out, tried, didn't dare, if he stretched out his head out, from below, it was clear, it was a big deal now, and he couldn't make such a small mistake.

"You let me take a look." Ruan Qiqi turned around twice more and pushed Lu Yi hard.

Lu Yi happily moved to the side, giving up half of the space to Ruan Seventeen.

Ruan Qiqi ordered a few big operas and introduced them to Lu Yi, "The one closest to the mountain gate is the money saved by the pilgrims, and the plays sung every year are the same, and they are sung to Beidi alone...... No, what a god hears, what is the Northern Emperor Demon Record, Zhenwu Repays Grace, you see, there are at least people in front of the stage, and I don't think it's interesting to sing that play, but people don't sing it to people in the first place. ”

Lu Yi leaned at Ruan Seventeen, he admired his self-familiarity, as well as his ability to talk to himself and be able to speak very annoyingly.

"The second stage, it's a big drama for your sister-in-law and my ninth aunt to make a vow, don't ask me, I don't know what she made a wish, the woman's family made a wish, it's very terrible, it's a troupe invited from your Jianchang City, it is said that it is the first in the south, anyway, look at it like this, the stage is good, your sister-in-law is rich, tsk, look at the front of the stage, there are so many people."

"In front of this mountain gate, who wants to set up a stage to sing?" Lu Yi interrupted Ruan Seventeen's tsk.

"How is that possible, if that's the case, from the mountain gate to the north city gate, it's not enough to set up a stage. Unless there's something big going on, it's just these four. Every year, whoever wants to set up a stage to sing and make a vow has to go to the temple first and say, it's good to be early, but in the end, it depends on the money, and, the door.

The temple is almost the same, and it has to be reported to the Nan'an Mansion and the government over there, but I don't look at the money very much, in short, this is not a matter of having money.

The latter two big dramas, one is Zhao Fuyin's prayer for his mother.

Zhao Fuyin's term, this year, this is the fifth year, in the first four years, the three middle and upper one is outstanding, it is not easy, this term expires, it stands to reason, it should be promoted by one liter, but if his mother is sick and gone......"

Ruan Qiqi laughed dryly, "So, look, this big drama is sung, it's such a big word of filial piety, tsk." ”

Ruan Qiqi sighed a few times and raised his chin, "The one farthest away from the mountain gate, the Sha family's money." Know who I hate the most? ”

Lu Yi leaned at Ruan Seventeen and didn't answer his words.

Ruan Qiqi didn't need him to answer, the words didn't stop at all, and continued: "It's the sand boy in his family, alas, it can't be regarded as annoying, there is such a person in Nan'an City, which is discouraged, just like if I were in Jianchang City, there would be a ...... in Jianchang City."

Ruan Qiqi paused before he finished speaking, tilted his head sideways, and thought about it very seriously, "You can't be compared like this, although you are ruthless, you have a femme fatale heart...... Wrong, it's wrong, I mean, the beauty is heartfelt, but you are not annoying, the Sha family is different, everything is good, and the appearance is almost as good-looking as you, but how to look at it is annoying, and when you stand there, all the shaking is boring, and half an eye makes people tired of it. ”

"You're talking about Sha Yongning? The eldest son of the Sha family? I know him, I've fought with him, he's fought well, he's a good person, he's a good drinker, I don't see anything wrong, he's beaten you? Bullied you? Lu Yi looked at Ruan Seventeen.

"No, speaking of which, I'm his elder, he doesn't dare to beat me, no, alas, my niece is engaged to him, my niece, I love this niece very much, since you know Sha Yongning, you must know that this kid is up to now, I'm afraid that his hair hasn't grown, but a few years ago, he was a beauty on the left and a beauty on the right, my nephew is an honest man, once drank a few glasses of wine, cried with me, and said that it would be good if he could die of illness before he got married."

Ruan Qiqi folded his fan and clapped his palms, sighing one after another in annoyance.

Lu Yi glanced at him a few times and diverted the topic, "The stage of the Sha family is also very lively, the place is too big, there are too many people, and it is still not easy to watch." ”

Lu Yi said, his brows furrowed again.

"This temple fair will take half a month, and today is only the first day." Ruan Qiqi aimed at the lander, his voice was soft and slightly cool, "The first time can't be prevented, there is a second time, as long as there is a second time, then the second time...... There must always be, ten days, and finally you can catch someone, but there is really no way to do anything else. ”

"Hmm." After a while, Lu Yi hummed, and after a moment, he sighed again, he couldn't bear to watch a life be lost, but he couldn't do anything.

To the west of the sun, and then it gets dark, the lanterns on the stage are hung high, from the mountain gate to the south, a huge red lantern is held high every other time, illuminating from the mountain gate of the Beidi Temple to the north gate of Nan'an City, all the way bright.

Even the eldest girl and little daughter-in-law who love to watch the drama the most can only turn back three times in one step, and start to rush back in a hurry.

At this time, there are not many remaining handsome big girls, and Lu Yi's people and the people dispatched by the Ruan family quietly followed.

At night, Lu Yi rested in the small courtyard rented behind the Beidi Temple, and the Ruan family, from Ruan Seventeen's father and Mrs. Ruan to Lu Yi's little aunt Mrs. Lu, who had never met before, sent people over one by one, and sent a long list of soups and snacks, all kinds of daily use of this and that.

Ruan Qiqi waited until it was dark, then got on the horse and went back to Nan'an City, did not go to the main gate of Ruan's mansion, went straight to the corner gate closest to his courtyard, told Xishan to talk to his father, quietly asked a doctor to take a look at him, folded his fan to hide his face, and sneaked back into his yard.
