Chapter 83: Inspiration in the Autumn Society and Kong Ming Lantern

There are two when there is one.

Chen Yulou specially lit up the remaining two pairs of paper armor.

That Guanshan Taibao, I am afraid that I would not be able to imagine that there are a total of four paper puppets, and most of them are cheaper than him.

But...... I have to say.

The difference between the eye-catching and the eyeless paper golem is worlds apart.

I have to describe it.

Putting the finishing touches on the paper puppet is like a white ape.

Although he didn't really come back to life, there was an almost heart-to-heart connection with him.

There is no need to chant witch spells, and in a single thought, you can drive paper figures.

I knew that the paper armor technique was one of the most amazing magic techniques that Guanshan Taibao had mastered.

But the effect was still a little unexpected for Chen Yulou.

It's not the same as the angry chicken.

After all, there is a high probability that there is nowhere to find the second head in this world.

But paper puppets are different, paper cuts are ready.

Even according to his inference, if he can practice the paper armor technique to the extreme, the puppet things driven by him can be completely limited to more than just paper people.

Paper cows, paper horses, gatehouses, houses.

It's like a folk paper-making person.

But what they pierced was only a dead thing.

But he who practiced the art of paper armor was able to give them "life".

This kind of witchcraft is almost the same as the bean-scattering soldiers in the Daomen, and it is even more subtle.

After playing with it for a while.

Chen Yulou put away the three pairs of paper armor.

After a few days of retreat, the results were very good.

The mausoleum has been thoroughly consulted by him.

The rest needs to be fed slowly with experience.

Watching the mountains and fixing the stars, looking for dragon points, wherever there are ancient tombs and large collections, the feng shui topography is bound to be different from other places.

And then on the way to Shalong Mountain.

Not to mention a month or two away.

He could have walked and watched all the way until he understood it.

As for the paper armor technique, it has now touched the threshold, so I just have to wait for the next step to try to cut the paper into a shadow by myself.

"I don't know what time it's out there."

Simply meditated and swallowed.

After a big week.

Chen Yulou only felt that his fatigue was swept away.

Got up and looked around, the dungeon was still the same as always, the lights were bright day and night, and he had been practicing all the time, almost completely unable to sense the passage of time.

muttered.

He didn't hesitate any longer.

The negative hand crossed the stone steps and went up.

After a while, wait for him to push open the door.

When I walked out of the underground palace for the first time, I didn't have time to breathe a breath of fresh air when I heard a sound of gongs and drums beating from outside the building.

"What's the situation?"

Chen Yulou was stunned.

Before the retreat, I didn't seem to have heard of anyone in the Zhuangzi to pick up relatives.

But listening to the voice now, it seems that a troupe has been invited.

Even if an ordinary dealer marries, the most he can do is to find a few people to beat up and have a good time.

Frowning, he took a few quick steps forward and opened the door.

Whoop -

The dazzling sunlight poured in.

At the same time, the noise is getting louder.

Chen Yulou narrowed his eyes slightly, and then walked out like a nobody.

But.

Wait for him to be gone for a moment.

Only to find out that it was not as I thought.

The inner city is still deserted and quiet, with only lanterns hanging on the trees by the lake, but the outer city is full of lights and bustling.

In the distance, he even heard the sound of the troupe singing on stage.

"Young Master!"

"Shopkeeper!"

"Always take the head."

Walking all the way, from time to time there were guys, dealers and family members who greeted him respectfully.

Chen Yulou nodded casually in response.

Wait for him to walk out of town.

Only then did I find that almost all the bankers had gathered together.

A high platform rises from the ground.

The outside is surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and the water cannot be drained.

There were even villagers from nearby villages who came to listen to the drama and join in the fun, one by one on tiptoe, their faces full of joy and excitement, and they listened to the rhythm very attentively.

There was not much entertainment these days.

Plus the season is tough.

It's rare to be able to watch a big show, how can you miss it?

"Young Master."

Chen Yulou also stopped to listen for a moment.

It seems to be the traditional drama Hunan opera here.

Just as he was pondering whether it was the Pipa or the Moon Worship, a familiar voice suddenly came.

"Uncle Yu, what day is it today, so lively?"

Seeing that it was Uncle Yu, Chen Yulou was not surprised, but just pointed to the stage and asked.

"She's Day."

"It's almost the autumn harvest season, and every year in Zhuangzi will invite the county theater to sing on stage, and this tradition has continued since the old shopkeeper."

Uncle Yu was surprised that he asked this question.

But he replied seriously.

On this kind of happy day, even he couldn't help but have a faint smile on his wrinkled face.

"Oh, yes, look at my memory, I'm almost dizzy all this time."

keenly aware of the flashing doubt in Uncle Yu's eyes.

Chen Yulou slapped his forehead and pretended to be helpless.

Social Day.

I forgot about it.

This is not a single solar term.

Rather, it is a fusion of the traditions of the Spring Society and Autumn Festival.

Similar celebrations take place each year before the spring planting and autumn harvest.

It's just that ordinary people in ordinary villages don't have extra spare money, at most they have a good meal, and the children set off firecrackers and light a firecracker, which is simply lively.

Chenjiazhuang is different.

Thousands of acres of fertile land have been carved out here for generations.

There are one or two hundred farming households renting land in the Chen family alone.

Coupled with the old shopkeeper, he has always wanted the Chen family to slowly move towards the road of poetry and book heirlooms.

That's why it's so important.

Every year, not only the troupe is invited, but the whole village is full of lights, and at night there will be dragon boats, lion dances, and lanterns, which is not much better than the New Year.

I saw that he remembered.

Uncle Yu also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He wasn't suspicious of anything.

I'm just worried that the young master will lock himself in the building for several days at every turn, and whether he will fall into autism after a long time.

"Young Master, are you hungry?"

"I'll have the kitchen prepare the meal."

Chen Yulou waved his hand, seeing that the sky was about to get dark, it would be okay to have dinner together at that time.

"Uncle Yu, what's going on tonight?"

Whoop -

He asked.

Suddenly, the singing seemed to be over on the stage, and the applause and cheers were overwhelming.

Subsequently.

The guys who had been ready for a long time lit a cigarette.

For a while, the sky was full of colorful lights.

Seeing this scene, the children who came to see the excitement immediately cheered.

They have little interest in babbling dramas.

What to expect is lanterns, lion dances, and dragon boats.

Chen Yulou was a little infected by the atmosphere, and a smile appeared on his face.

Since the day of the society is to pray for a good harvest.

He was about to go to Shalong Mountain.

As a livelihood for which the Chen family is based, it should be okay to pray for a good harvest as well, right?

Wait until the smoke clears.

Night is falling.

But the villagers had no intention of leaving.

Instead, they were looking forward to it.

Seeing this, Chen Yulou also subconsciously looked in the direction they were looking at.

I saw the surface of the lake.

Lights float by the water.

At the same time, countless lights rose in the wind, and the night sky seemed to rise with rounds of bright moons.

The moment I saw it.

Everyone immediately let out a mountain of congratulations.

Some even knelt on the ground, praying sincerely for good weather and good health.

And they are different.

Chen Yulou's eyes lit up suddenly, and there was a beating under his chest.

"Kong Ming lantern!"

The lights that floated in mid-air.

He suddenly had a feeling of inspiration.

In the past few days of retreat, in addition to practicing the mausoleum and paper armor technique, in his spare time, he has never forgotten the matter of covering the dragon mountain.

The only problem that stuck him right now.

It's how to accurately deliver gunpowder into the mountains.

But at the moment......

He thought of it!

Isn't the Kong Ming lantern, which has been inherited for more than a thousand years, a ready-made hot air balloon?

As long as the Kong Ming lantern is big enough.

Let it float into the sky above the tomb of King Xian with gunpowder.

The point is that it's simple and easy to carry.

Even if it doesn't work once.

There are countless more opportunities.

"Young Master, this is tonight's event."

"There will be a lion dance ...... later"

Uncle Yu on the side looked into the distance with a smile.

I didn't notice Chen Yulou's abnormality.

"Not bad."

"The lights are good."

Chen Yulou laughed, meaning something.

How could it be bad.

He had been trapped for five or six days, and suddenly his mouth suddenly opened, and this feeling was countless times more enjoyable than a can of ice drink on a hot day.

"Uncle Yu, who made those Kong Ming lanterns?"

He won't care about any lion and dragon dances.

I just couldn't wait to ask.

"Huh?"

Uncle Yu was obviously stunned.

I don't know what he did when he suddenly asked this.

But he didn't hesitate and quickly replied.

"The old people in the village are all together, and their ancestors were born to make paper lanterns, and his family is responsible for the lanterns every year."

"Okay, take me to meet him."

Chen Yulou nodded.

He had no impression of the old Qi Tou.

After all, there are too many people in Zhuangzi, and it is impossible for everyone to know them.

“…… Good. ”

Listening to his tone, he was quite eager.

Uncle Yu thought that something was wrong, so he didn't dare to delay immediately, and led Chen Yulou all the way to the outer city.

Outside the city, Chen Yulou really doesn't come many times.

Especially in the last six months.

Either practice in Guanyun Tower, or Changsheng Mountain, or in other places.

I really don't know much about this small city formed by relying on the inner city of the Chen family.

But Uncle Yu is different.

He can accurately call everyone by name.

Tell them who they were before they came to Chenjiazhuang.

What to do, there are several people in the family, and it is also clear.

It is also a ability that no one else can replace him.

After turning left and right in the alley for a while.

Uncle Yu finally stopped.

"Young Master, this is it."

Chen Yulou looked up and saw that it was a small courtyard, not much different from other places.

But at a glance.

The small courtyard is full of lanterns, lamps, and objects woven from bamboo strips.

There are hardly many places to stay.

"Old Qitou, the young master has come to see you."

Uncle Yu is really like a fish entering water, passing through the lanterns all over the ground without hindrance.

Walked behind an old man with white hair.

At this moment, he is sitting on a bamboo chair, carrying a bamboo knife to do things.

The bamboo in his hand is like magic.

With a horizontal knife and a vertical knife, a few simple strokes will turn a wrist-thick bamboo into a small bamboo strip.

His ears don't seem to be very good.

Uncle Yu patted him on the shoulder, and then came to his side and shouted loudly, and Lao Qi reacted.

When I turned around and saw the figure in a long robe with a gentle expression.

The whole person was obviously at a loss.

"See...... I've seen the young master. ”

Hold your hands into fists and salute.

It was Chen Yulou who quickly supported him.

is a lot older, let alone sixty or seventy years old, let him bow down, isn't this a long life?

"Old Qitou, now that the Republic of China is in the Republic, Zhuangzi is no longer prosperous in the former dynasty."

"The young master is generous, you don't have to be too restrained."

Seeing that the old man was honestly frightened, Uncle Yu couldn't help but laugh.

The old man who was in Zhuangzi many years ago is fine.

Those people who have only entered the village in the past two years are like gods to Chen Yulou.

After all, if Zhuangzi hadn't taken them in, they would have starved to death in such troubled times.

In particular, he rented the Chen family's fields.

The rent is 10% lower than that outside.

Lao Qitou has been in the village for a few years, the family rented six or seven acres of paddy fields, and the three sons were busy in the fields all day long.

But this is the first time he has seen the young master.

In the past, he had only been seen riding into the city from afar.

How can I not be afraid.

"Old Uncle Qi, I came over today, and I have nothing else to do, I just want to ask if you can make a bigger Kong Ming lantern?"

Chen Yulou asked softly.

"Big?"

"I don't know how old the young master is, but I've done it before."

Seeing that he was asking about Kong Minglan, which was his own eating technique, Lao Qitou felt a lot more relieved.

"It's as big as being able to bring three or five pounds of things to the sky."

Chen Yulou pondered for a moment.

If you want to break the feng shui of the tomb of the king, you will need at least a slightly larger blast.

When the time comes, collect as much high gunpowder as you can.

Half a catty.

It should be about the same.

"Three pounds of things to the sky?"

Lao Qi was stunned for a moment.

In the past, he used to put lamps on large families in the city.

But at most, it's the size of a bamboo sieve.

Bring something to the sky, this is really not seen.

But he didn't dare to hesitate, just groaned slightly, and bowed.

"Young master, I don't dare to hide it from you, I really haven't pierced it before, but I can give it a try."

"Okay, then Uncle Qi, you can do it with peace of mind first."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yulou couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

He casually took out a piece of ocean from his pocket and stuffed it into his hand.

"It's a deposit."

"When you're done, there's a reward."

"This ...... Where is this, Young Master Chen, you are already grateful for taking our family to live, where can I ask for your money. ”

I looked at the bright silver ocean in my hand.

Lao Qi shook his head in fright.

Straight to say you can't ask for money.

But Chen Yulou had already turned around, leaving only a sentence far away.

"Uncle Qi, if you give it to you, you will take it, if you feel that you can't go, try to make Kong Ming Lantern better."

"It's best to be able to bear the weight of ten pounds and eight pounds."

"Don't talk about a piece of the ocean, even a small yellow croaker is worth it."

Lao Qi raised his head, and the figures of Young Master Chen and Uncle Yu in his sight were about to disappear at the gate.

He doesn't have a lot of legs and feet.

I can't catch up at all.

I could only hold the ocean, standing at the door in a daze, and suddenly felt like I was dreaming.

Until the three sons heard the news and rushed back.

He just woke up from a dream.

"Third child, you are tired of looking at the fields these days, boss, you two stay at home to help."

"The young master must not be sloppy in what he explained."

The other side.

Uncle Yu who followed Chen Yulou all the way out of the small courtyard.

Although my heart is full of doubts.

But not a single word was asked.

This is the rule of his survival in the Chen family for decades.

What the young master wants, he just needs to do his best to do it, instead of questioning it.

"By the way, Uncle Yu, all the materials that Shopkeeper Li needs have been sent over these days, right?"

Chen Yulou was extremely satisfied with his reaction.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention Kong Ming's lantern.

"Sent it."

"The guy who went to Hanyang, the secret gold he brought back, and the box you explained, young master, were all sent to Shijun Mountain."

"In addition, Shopkeeper Li brought a message, saying that the earth fire is vigorous, and it can be completed in ten days!"
