"Ahem." Xi Yan cleared his throat, "This has to be related to a folk legend of the lost country." ”

"It is rumored that there is a woman in a raccoon cloth among the lost people, she is born with weak vision, and everything she sees in her eyes is only a vague shadow, once she rescued an injured man while washing clothes by the river, and the two fell in love with each other day by day...... It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, when the Lantern Festival banquet was approaching, he prepared a bright lamp for the Huanyi girl, hoping to use the light to guide her path, but just when he was about to fly, the enemy came to the door and killed him. ”

Xi Yan knows that whether these folklore are true or false, they all contain people's long-cherished wishes, so no one will care about the legend behind it.

He said with a smile: "So the lantern banquet custom of the Lantern Festival later has another layer of meaning for unmarried men and women. ”

"I see."

The temple priest bowed lightly.

Xi Yan only suddenly remembered this, he knew that the priest of the temple would not appear at the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival, and he would not be able to see the grand scene of a thousand lanterns blooming, but he also knew that if he just told her like this, she would also listen very carefully.

"By the way, Priest."

Before leaving, Xi Yan suddenly remembered the three big boxes of treasures in Si Yan.

Even if a good brother is not a good person, he still wants to give him an assist: "This time, as an apology for his crimes, those three big boxes were sent by the general." ”

The priest of the temple was noncommittal, watching Xi Yan's departure.

After that, the three chests were indeed left in the priest's temple, and they were never opened, even if the priest of the temple did not ask for it himself.

......

"Lantern Festival?"

In the restaurant, Ember repeated these three words.

Xi Yan looked at it strangely, but he quickly nodded in understanding: "Also, you have been fighting outside for many years, and you probably don't know about the Lantern Festival Lantern Banquet." ”

Hearing this, a trace of cold sarcasm crossed Si Yan's eyes.

He didn't have a good impression of the Lantern Festival banquet.

But—

His face pale, the only reason he could remember the Lantern Festival was that he had met the temple priest who had just officially succeeded him that day.

At that time, Ember didn't have any other thoughts about her, just wanted to see the true face of the priest of the temple under the layers of cover.

But as this incident became his obsession, his mind gradually changed, and it developed to an increasingly dangerous level.

After meeting the priest of the temple, he suddenly realized that his obsession had already penetrated into his bones, and he began to crave more.

So, the words that Xi Yan had explained in front of the priest of the temple two days ago were repeated again in front of the general.

"Show each other their hearts."

Ember muttered these words, a glint of surprise in his eyes.

When Xi Yan looked at his expression, he suddenly had a bad premonition: "What do you want to do?" ”

Ember glanced at him, then smiled meaninglessly.

“......”

Xi Yan had a headache when he saw his expression, "Don't think about it, it's impossible, the priest of the temple has never seen the Thousand Lights Banquet." ”

"The Holy Mountain is towering, and against the direction of the wind, those lamps can't float at the foot of the Holy Mountain, and even if they can, they can't reach the same height as the Priest's Temple."

"So what, I'll let her see."

The general raised his chin nonchalantly, and his eyes flashed with confidence that was bound to win.

After that, Xi Yan rarely saw the general, and in order to achieve this matter, he began to get busy.

Sometimes Xi Yan was curious, and all kinds of inquiries to him were impatiently driven away, and the angry Xi Yan scolded him several times for having the opposite sex and being inhumane.

......

On the day of the Lantern Festival.

On festivals, the temple is closed to let people go out and relax, so on this day, the temple is obviously deserted a lot.

Except for those guards and priests who devoted themselves to cultivation, most of them went to the national capital to join in the fun.

On this day, the moon hung high, and the clear light of the cold moon fell to the ground, penetrating into the mountains and forests, and permeating the earth.

Unfortunately, the excitement of the national capital could not reach the priest's temple anyway.

In the lonely and quiet hall, only the full moon overhead accompanied the temple priests.

She sat quietly on the high platform of the priest's temple, with a few open scrolls under her hands, but the movements of her hands remained the same, as if in contemplation, as if in a daze.

In a trance, she raised her head, and through the layers of curtains on the high platform, her gaze penetrated the main hall and looked at the bright and warm national capital below.

At this time, it must be extremely lively.

The temple priest shook her head slightly, and was about to withdraw her gaze to focus on the scroll in front of her, but in an instant, a fiery red light appeared in her eyes.

“？”

There was a real look of astonishment on the temple priest's face.

For a moment, she gazed at the lantern that was swaying at the foot of the sacred mountain, trying to climb up, the lamp was a little strangely shaped, not delicate, but very tenacious.

Even against the wind, it swayed in the wind, but it still floated strong in the direction of the priest's temple.

- This was the first time the temple priest had seen a lamp flying, but it was still a lamp that belonged to her.

She walked down from the high platform in a daze, walked silently to the outside of the hall, and finally stopped at the entrance of the hall.

She stared at the lamp for a long time, and the smile in her eyes was fleeting.

"That's enough." She suddenly exclaimed, "Let's go to a freer world." ”

A strange wind suddenly struck, and the lantern, which had been working hard against the wind, was carried by this wind and drifted towards the bustling boundary of the national capital, never to return.

The temple priest watched the lamp drift out of his sight, then turned and walked into the temple.

At the foot of the Holy Mountain.

Ember saw that he had spent a lot of manpower and found a lot of craftsmen to make the lamp float in the direction of the priest's temple, but just when he was about to succeed, the lamp suddenly drifted to the national capital without returning.

"Damn."

He frowned fiercely, and the gloom in his eyes was about to overflow.

Xi Yan, who was not far away, looked at this scene and exclaimed: "Okay, this is also expected, isn't it." ”

Ember looked back at him and frowned, "Why are you still here?" ”

Xi Yan choked, and wanted to reprimand him for his ruthlessness.

However, when he thought that his good brother was still in a melancholy link, he still didn't fall into the well after thinking about it.

Xi Yan walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "I guess, Lord Priest must have seen it." ”

"How do you know?"

Ember suddenly looked up and stared at him, in a very unkind tone, as if to say, 'You can understand her better than I do?' ’

"......" Xi Yan was speechless, "Don't be crazy and jealous." ”

"I asked those priests before, during the Lantern Festival banquet, the priests will read books on the high platform, and that position can overlook the scenery under the mountain, your lamp is so high, she must have seen it."

Hearing Xi Yan say this, Si Yan's expression softened.
