Chapter Twenty-Three: Lantern Festival

In the early morning of the second day, Murong Ning said goodbye to Ye Liufeng early and went home, although Murong Ning sneaked out, but he didn't go back for so long, how could he have less thoughts?

Murong Ning went back, and Ye Liufeng's life returned to its original state, cultivating with Lan'er Huzi every day, and it was inevitable that he felt a little lost in his heart. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Three days later, Murong Ning sent a letter to Tianxianglou, saying that she had been grounded by her father and mother, and she could not come out to play with Ye Liufeng in the short term.

But fortunately, he still had a hope in his heart, that is, Murong Ning wrote a few days later, saying that she could go out on the day of the Lantern Festival.

The lantern festival is a traditional custom in Xingyun Town, and it is a grand festival for people in the town to pray for love and bless themselves for peace, and every household basically participates.

There are more and more tourists in the town, and the atmosphere of the lantern festival is getting stronger and stronger, thinking that the lantern festival is also approaching.

The lantern festival is finally coming, and on this night when the moon is high in the sky, people on the street are lighting up thousands of lanterns to celebrate. Merchants and craftsmen from all over the world also set up small shops in the prosperous areas of the town, and sold the lanterns they made on the simple-looking wooden shelves. In just a few days of this lantern festival, it is not only a competition of lantern making technology, but also a competition of craftsmanship and imagination of the vendors. The styles and craftsmanship of the lamps are all novel and varied, ranging from lamps inlaid with precious jewels to lamps made of special materials, attracting an endless stream of viewers. The price of the lamp is generally very cheap, so naturally there are many people who buy it.

Tourists also came out of the accommodation, some went out to admire the moon, some lit lanterns, and some liked to guess lantern riddles and celebrate this grand lantern festival. Everyone celebrates the festival together, which can be described as a joy.

In the days before the Lantern Festival, Tianxianglou's business was naturally too good, so Ye Tianling couldn't pull away, so he had to let Lan'er and Huzi take Ye Liufeng out to visit the Lantern Festival.

As soon as they came out, Ye Liufeng's eyes began to spin.

"Brother Hu, I'll go around alone, you and my master have a good time. Ye Liufeng seems to be thinking about Lan'er Huzi, but in fact, how can Lan'er not know his thoughts?

"Did you go to find your Ning'er?" Lan'er covered her mouth and laughed softly.

"I won't tell you. Ye Liufeng smiled, waved his hand, and soon got into the vast sea of people.

"Why hasn't Ning'er come yet. Ye Liufeng came to the agreed position with Murong Ning in advance, and after waiting for a long time, he still couldn't see Murong Ning's figure, and he couldn't help but be a little worried. "It's going to be fine. ”

"Brother Flowing Wind. A familiar voice came from behind him.

"Ning'er. Ye Liufeng hurriedly turned around, just in time to meet Murong Ning's gaze.

"Let's go. The two looked at each other for a while, Ye Liufeng spoke, and pulled Murong Ning is run.

"Brother Liufeng, look, there are so many beautiful lanterns. Murong Ning saw all kinds of lanterns on the side of the road, and he couldn't hold it at all, jumping in the crowd. A little fire accompanied her graceful body, like a fairy who came to the world with fire.

"It's beautiful. Looking at Murong Ning's happy appearance, Ye Liufeng also laughed.

"Two young heroes, do you want to come here to guess the lantern riddle, there is a prize for guessing correctly. Ye Liufeng was walking on the street surrounded by lanterns, and suddenly felt someone patting him behind him, it turned out to be a middle-aged man in plain clothes standing in front of a stall full of lanterns, and the lamps were covered with all kinds of notes.

"Hey, what is this, it looks interesting. Murong Ning has always had a poor resistance to curious things, and he muttered to guess.

"Guessing lantern riddles", also known as "playing lantern riddles", is an entertainment activity derived from the Lantern Festival, which has long existed in Nebula Town, as for the source, it is indeed impossible to verify. In addition to selling lanterns, the vendors would write riddles on slips of paper and paste them on the colorful lanterns for people to guess. Because riddles can inspire wisdom and interest, the activity of guessing lantern riddles is also a very popular activity during the lantern festival.

"This girl, this is the riddle guessing activity of the Lantern Festival in Nebula Town, you take one of these lanterns, there is a note with riddles written in it, I think the girl is so smart, she must be able to guess the riddle easily. The middle-aged man explained with a smile, and according to Murong Ning's instructions, he took a lantern off the shelf and handed it to Murong Ning.

"The swan flies away and the bird does not return, the good word has no head, and there are two more strokes in the middle of the word, and the combination of people is their own. What, I don't understand it at all. What Murong Ning got was an extremely complicated riddle, which instantly stumped her.

Murong Ning thought about it for a long time, but he still had no clue, so he simply gave the riddle to Huzi with a cheeky face, and he ran to the side to watch those beautiful lanterns. "Brother Liufeng, I'll leave it to you!"

Ye Liufeng shook his head helplessly, lowered his head, and then began to ponder.

"The birds are flying around Swan Lake. There is no bird on the side of the goose, it is my word. The good word has no head, that is Gen, two people match, that is next to the double person, so the second word is very, and the first two words are very much. There are two more strokes in the middle of the word, that is the word love, and the combination of people is themselves, that is you, so the mystery is that I love you very much. Ye Liufeng solved the riddle, and looked at Murong Ning's gaze, but he was a little shy.

"Brother Liufeng, what's the mystery?" Lan'er's soft, smiling voice floated.

"I love you so much. Ye Liufeng subconsciously replied, only to find that it seemed a little inappropriate, and when he raised his head, he saw Murong Ning looking at him slyly.

"I love you too. Murong Ning said firmly. It turned out that Murong Ning had actually guessed the puzzle, and deliberately asked Ye Liufeng to guess it, so as to tempt him to take the bait.

"Ahem......" Ye Liufeng coughed a little embarrassed.

"Congratulations on guessing the riddle correctly, I have a little gift for you. The vendor took out a heart-shaped lantern and handed it to Ye Liufeng. "May you love each other forever. ”

"Thank you. Ye Liufeng hesitated, but still took the lantern.

After visiting the lantern festival, both of them were a little tired, found a riverside where they could see the lights of the city, and then sat down.

"Brother Flowing Wind. Murong Ning leaned on Ye Liufeng's body and called softly.

"Hmm. ”

"Thank you. ”

"Thanks for what?" Ye Liufeng turned his head suspiciously, only to find that the corners of Murong Ning's eyes were actually flickering with tears.

"What's wrong with you crying. Ye Liufeng gently helped Murong Ning wipe her tears and said softly.

"It's nothing, thinking about some of the past, it's a little gaffe. Murong Ning was still smiling, but there was a hint of bitterness in his smile, Ye Liufeng hesitated, but gently took Murong Ning into his arms.

Murong Ning felt the warmth on Ye Liufeng's chest, and his face finally softened.

"Brother Liufeng, will you always be with me?" Lan'er looked at Ye Liufeng, not knowing what she remembered, tears had already dripped down her face and on the ground, making a crisp sound.

"I'll be with you all the time. Ye Liufeng also hugged Murong Ning a little tighter, and said softly.

Murong Ning smiled, wiped away her tears, and leaned on Ye Liufeng's arms like this, looking at the bright starlight in the sky, smiling happily.
