Following Qin Guan's footsteps forward, Yu Li's heart was pounding, and she couldn't help but wonder, should I withdraw my hand.

If I don't withdraw it, will Qin Guan think I'm not reserved?

Draw it back, will Qin Guan misunderstand that I dislike him?

Just when Yu Li was thinking nonsense, the two had already arrived at the place of the lantern festival, which was crowded with people, and there were countless smart lanterns hanging on the lakeside promenade, some made by the government, some by merchants, and some by private individuals, and there were strips of colored silk hanging on them, and there were words on the colored silk.

"Husband, what is this?" Yu Li asked curiously.

"Guess the lantern riddle."

"Guess the lantern riddle? Guess how. ”

"There are rewards, or prizes, or this lamp belongs to you, and some merchants will reward some products from their own stores, which can be regarded as advertising in disguise." Qin Guan Dao.

Qin Guan pointed to the lantern that could not see the end, and said to Yu Li arrogantly, "Yu Li, which one do you like, my husband will win it back for you." ”

"Can you win what you like?" Looking at Qin Guan with a confident face, Yu Li asked.

"Try it." Qin Guan smiled lightly.

The two of them are not in a hurry, looking at each lamp one by one, palace lanterns, yarn lanterns, flower basket lamps, dragon and phoenix lanterns, angular lamps, tree and ground lamps, and ceremonial lanterns, which are beautiful.

The two held hands and looked slowly, Yu Li's face was flushed and smiling, the light shone on Yu Li's face, Qin Guan felt that she was really beautiful tonight.

Suddenly, there was a cry from the front.

The two of them followed the voice, a little girl of seven or eight years old was crying, and a woman next to her was coaxing the child.

"Niuniu, if we can't guess the lantern riddle, we don't want it, okay, my mother will take you to the lake to put the lights in a while." Woman.

"But Niuniu likes that lantern so much, Daddy must like it too, take it back and hang it at home at night, Daddy will be very comfortable reading a book." The girl was still crying.

The woman continued to gently coax the girl, Yu Li saw this scene, her heart was touched, and she suddenly thought of her mother, Mrs. Su Yao, and her expression was a little trance.

"What's wrong, Yuli."

Qin Guan's voice sounded in his ears, and Yu Li woke up in shock, revealing a smile, "Husband, can you help that little girl?" ”

Qin watched and nodded.

The two came to the woman and the little girl, Yu Li squatted down, looked at the girl and said, "Don't cry, which light do you want, let your big brother win it back for you." ”

Seeing Yu Li, who was like a fairy in the painting, talking to herself, the woman and the girl were stunned, and the girl still had tears on her face, pointed to the largest palace lamp on it and said, "I want that one." ”

Qin looked at it and said, you wait, I'll take a look, and as he spoke, he strode to the person in charge of the lamp, pointed to the largest lamp on it and said, "Guess the lantern riddle, can you ask for that lamp?" ”

The lantern keeper smiled: "Of course you can, as long as you guess it, you will give it to Xianggong, but this is a new question that we have invited the best anagram in our store, and many people have taken a fancy to this lamp, but no one has guessed it overnight." ”

Coming to the lamp, Qin looked at the strip of cloth adorned on it, on which was written a poem,

The horsemen are strong and heroic,

The marshal waved the battle flag in the center.

The artillery is exhausted,

Why did you lose this game?

After Qin watched it, he had the answer in his heart after a little thought, Yu Li followed behind, and after reading the puzzle, he was puzzled and asked, "Husband, can you guess it." ”

"There are already results."

"So fast, what does that mean?" Yu Li asked curiously.

"It seems that the person who came up with this problem is a guy who likes to play chess, you don't know how to play chess, and it is reasonable to not know what it means, you see in this poem, the handsome man has soldiers and horses, but he is missing a car, he owes a car, so the riddle of this lantern riddle should be soft." Qin Guan Dao.

After hearing this, Yu Li felt that it made sense, turned her head to look at the lamp man and asked, "Is it a soft word?" ”

The lamp keeper nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, this boy guessed right." As he spoke, he took out a pole and picked up the lamp and sent it to Qin Guan, Qin Guan took the lamp and thanked him, and then handed it to Yu Li, who came to the little girl with the lamp, "This is for you." ”

The little girl was pleasantly surprised, "Thank you, sister, and thank you, big brother." ”

The woman thanked again and again, took the little girl's hand, carried the lantern and left happily, and when the girl's figure disappeared, Yu Li said, "When we go to Mingzhufang City, let's go to Mo's house to see Xiyan." ”

"Yes." Qin Guan naturally agreed.

The two came to the lake, and at this time there were many people gathered around the lake, and people were putting lotus lanterns on the lake, especially young men and women.

Qin Guan bought two lamps, one for each of them and held them in his hand, Yu Li silently made a wish, put the lamp in the lake, Qin Guan asked her, "What wish did you make?" ”

Yu Li's face suddenly shy and ashamed, "I won't tell you." ”

Qin Guan laughed.

This night, the two played late, and Yu Li felt that it had never been so relaxed.

On a certain mountain outside Yuyao City, on the top of a big tree like a canopy, Yu Li sat sideways, but Qin Guan on the side was lying without an image, looking at the bright moon in the sky with his hands on his pillow, Yu Li suddenly said: "What do you think of this immortal cultivator." ”

Qin Guan thought for a while and said: "Traveling in the North Sea in the twilight, eating in the morning and dew and eating in the clouds, watching the waves and clouds disappear in your spare time, the spring and autumn through the ages are like a dream!" Everyone in the world says that immortality is good, but how do you know, if it is miserable, even if it is immortal, what is the use, if it is smooth, it will be enough for one day......"

When he said the last sentence, Qin Guan turned his head to look at Yu Li, and Yu Li's heartbeat accelerated by Qin Guan.

Yu Li said, "I once read the Taoist classics, and the classics say that the highest state of cultivating immortals is forgetfulness. ”

"Forgetting things can nourish the heart, forgetting feelings can nourish nature, forgetting the realm can nourish the spirit, forgetting color can nourish the essence, forgetting desire can nourish the form, forgetting the form can nourish the qi, forgetting me can nourish the void, forgetting the world can nourish the Tao, isn't it wrong in the Taoist classics?"

Qin Guan shook his head: "I have always felt that cultivating immortals without desire and forgetfulness is completely inferior!" There are no confidants, no relatives and friends, and even the joys and sorrows of normal people, except for self-cultivation, what else. ”

"We learn supernatural spells, just to protect our means of immortality, and immortality is not the ultimate goal, our purpose is to have a longer life to think, to experience, to enjoy, to pursue beautiful things, not to become a living stone."

Yu Li suddenly felt that maybe what Qin Guan said was right.

Moonlight is like water,

The two sat quietly and waited for the dawn.

Peeking at Qin Guan next to him, this is actually not bad.

The moon rabbit sank in the west, the golden crow rose, and a new day came, and the two set off for Mingzhufang City again.

Walking forward with the Yuli Imperial Sword, the continuous mountains under his feet couldn't help but retreat, and suddenly, a feeling of palpitations hit Qin Guan's heart.
