CHAPTER XVI

The lantern is the biggest event of the Obon Festival, and the river lantern is also called the lotus lantern, which is generally made of paper paste into a lotus shape, and the lamp or candle is placed on the base, and when night falls, it is put in the rivers, lakes and seas, and let it drift to draw the souls of the dead.

Su Su originally just wanted to make a move to make up for his careless mistakes, and watching the river lantern was just an excuse to change the topic. Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the riverbank, Cen Biqing really took out a river lantern and handed it over under Su Su's surprised and panicked eyes.

"Is this for me?" Given that the two had just been in discord, Su Su cautiously consulted him about his intentions. Although selfishly, she wants to ask how this came to be??

"What do you think?" Cen Biqing looked at her cringe, she was a little irritable in her heart, and when she spoke, the level of threat in her tone was greatly increased, obviously her face looked like a peach blossom in March, but the smile on her face was like the cold wind in December.

"I~" She was completely out of ideas~

Cen Biqing squinted: "If you don't like it...... Don't force ......."

Does she dare not force it?

"Not reluctantly, not reluctantly~" Females really love to talk back! Su Su, who had peeked through the mystery, stepped forward and flattered him with doglegs.

"Really?"

The cold wind crossed, Su Su shivered in her heart, and silently shrunk her shoulders, the little green girl looked a little in a bad mood~ No, it should be very bad!

She snatched the river lamp with a familiar look, and saw the satisfied smile of the little young girl as expected.

Originally, it was just perfunctory, but after taking it, I found out that it had a different meaning.

Su Su held the river lantern in his hand and watched it carefully, and couldn't help but admire, this workmanship is really extraordinarily exquisite! Delicate and beautiful, the lotus petals are made of fine silk, dotted with a few round glass beads as dew, the lotus platform is not an ordinary candle, but fixed with a quail egg-sized night pearl, absolutely the top handicraft!

Su Su salivated, such a good river lantern~ Will it be too extravagant and wasteful?

If you don't let it go~ Su Su peeked at him and felt that this girl's temper was too stinky, so it was better not to mess with it.

The money belongs to other people, and no one is distressed, she is distressed here~ She can't be an M physique, and she loves the emperor and is not in a hurry, so what's the hurry?

Unconsciously, it was already sunset, the night was shrouded, and the night of the Middle Yuan fell. The people on the road are sparse and sparse, and there is not much left.

When the sun receded, Su Su only felt that her neck was cold, and her whole body was a little chilly. A snake is indeed a snake, and it is still a snake after cultivating into a human form! Su Su pouted, what is the use of cultivating? In the end, it's not that you can't get rid of your own nature! Afraid of cold and heat, even an ordinary mortal is not as good as him.

The water flow in summer is quite stable, and the lit river lantern slowly flows downstream with the flowing water, Su Su holds the river lantern, throws off Cen Biqing for more than 20 steps, finds a secluded river bank, lifts up the skirt and squats down, and puts this seemingly expensive river lantern into the water. The water surface fluctuated, and Su Su saw bursts of green light flashing under the water surface, and thought it was dazzling, but the green light of the clinker became brighter and brighter, and it became clearer and clearer on the dark riverbed.

Even if it's a dream, it's impossible to be dazzled!

Su Su stared, watching the wisps of green light chasing the river lantern, and suddenly remembered what Xiaoqing had told her that the purpose of releasing the river lantern was to purify the water ghosts and other lonely ghosts in the water and guide them. So, these green afterimages in front of you are the legendary ...... Lonely ghosts?

She really saw a ghost!?

The river lamp she put was surrounded by ghosts. In the eyes of ordinary people, only the surface of the water is sparkling and rippling, and there is nothing peculiar. But Su Su was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. She watched as the ghost image with the most green light spread out like a piece of cloth, making a movement of teeth and claws, and the other shadows suddenly scurried towards the surroundings with the river lamp as the center. The victorious ghost slowly rose from the surface of the water, encircling the entire river lantern......

orz~ghost scares ghosts...... Are you scared to death?

Compete...... Sure enough, it's everywhere~

"Su Su likes to watch that water ghost?" Cen Biqing frowned.

She calmly glanced back at Cen Biqing, who was leaning on the willow tree. "No...... I just thought it was funny. ”

Cen Biqing said: "Since you like it, how about I ask someone to catch a few for you to play with?" ”

Su Su said: "...... "You think it's a chicken!" Catch a few more~ That's a ghost! Hell, do you know!

And also...... When did she say she liked it...... She's talking funny! Interesting, understandable!?

Cen Biqing added lightly: "It's just a few irrelevant water ghosts. ”

Her heart suddenly went violent, maintaining a squatting posture, staring at the river lamps from all directions gradually gathered in a slow-flowing depression under the willow trees on the opposite bank, where the greenery was soft, and it looked very peaceful and gentle, in Su Su's eyes, it was not so terrifying, but it added two points of mystery, just like a night talk of a hundred ghosts. It's just a night talk, and it doesn't hurt.

The green afterimage flickered and dimmed, and the fire-like light bloomed to the extreme in an instant, Su Su blinked, and was startled, there was someone there!

He was half hidden under the ancient willows on the shore, if it weren't for the candle flame gathering to bring out such a white human form, she was afraid that she would not have discovered his existence until now!

What is the origin?

Friend or foe?

What are you doing there in the middle of the night?

Also, that strong feeling is...... He's looking at her?! However, there seems to be no hostility in this line of sight......

She didn't seem to have done anything bad today, except for a river lantern that was extremely extravagant? Could it be...... Old knowledge?

Bai Suzhen's old acquaintance...... What could it be?

Su Su slowly stood up and stared at the man, although the demon's eyesight was good, but the man was hidden behind the willow tree, and he couldn't see his face clearly, just by his figure, Su Su could only infer that it was a man. A few strange things flashed in her heart, and she was a little overwhelmed, but her shoulder was held down, and in shock, she heard Cen Biqing's calm voice: "Susu, go." ”

There was a flower in front of them, and when they opened their eyes again, it was already the bottom of the West Lake, and both of them were a little silent.

Su Su followed Cen Biqing through a large area of red coral, and finally couldn't hold it back, so she caught up and asked, "Xiaoqing, ...... that person?"

"It's a high monk."

The Chinese language is broad and profound, and there are four kinds of understanding of high monks: monks with high status, monks with high age, monks with high virtue, and monks with high mana. Excuse me, little young girl, which one are you talking about?

Cen Biqing stopped and said, "Su Su, this person is the fierce enemy of the demon clan, if he interferes in this matter, there will be trouble." You must not provoke him, and if you encounter him in the future, it is best to stay away. ”

Su Su instinctively retorted: "This is the decree of the Queen Mother of the West......" After the words were silenced, this kind of disgraceful thing, the Queen Mother of the West will definitely not admit it, if this matter is revealed, not only the monk will not let them go, but even the Queen Mother of the West is bound to eradicate them! Su Su grinds her teeth secretly: a shameless and despicable old woman! I pushed it all the way, the knife is not bloody, this person is really in the realm of transformation in some aspects!

"I originally thought that since it was the will of the Queen Mother of the West, I could get a little protection from her, at least without causing these unnecessary troubles...... You've seen through this for a long time, haven't you? ”

Cen Biqing looked at her deeply: "We are demons." "Doomed to be unable to compete with the Protoss.

"This demon is really boring, we can't fight that monk?" Su Su was compassionate, and suddenly gave birth to a little emotion of "both Shengyu and He Shengliang". It's not easy for demons to survive in the gap between humans and immortals.

"It's better not to think like that."

"Why?"

"When you think like this, it's often not far from being scattered."

“…… Rare......" Su Su suddenly shortened her breath and subconsciously smacked her mouth, well, she is actually very rare.

When she was a human being, she only felt that it was really difficult to be a human being, she had to run around for a living, many things could not be done as she wanted, life was short and impermanent, and a moment of miscalculation would produce many regrets that could never be made up. At that time, I always envied monsters, demons were vast, and they were much more detached than people!

I didn't expect that one day I would really dress as a monster.

The personal feeling is just the old saying: if a person drinks water, he knows the warmth and coldness.

The slender figure appeared in front of him again, Su Su pursed the corners of his mouth, is it a monk? It looks like he's just a young monk.

This world is really not fair enough, I think she didn't do anything wrong, but she was forced to crawl and roll in this darkest place, trying to survive. However, there are some people who have nothing to give, but they live a glorious life and are high.

Their demon clan, if they have cultivated for thousands of years, they can't fight a young monk in the end! So what else does she cultivate?

Well, it's just a casual thought, cultivation is still a must. Even if it's to prevent other monsters from picking it up, she has to cultivate.

She rubbed her chin, wanting to see what the expressions of those people would look like when they were pulled down from the high altar......
