Text Chapter 88 The Town Lantern Festival
This immortal forest is really a strange place.
The ancient trees are forested, the trees are separated by about half a meter, the trunks are black, the leaves are black, and the vitality of the trees cannot be felt, just like the beginning of the world has existed, there is no vicissitudes of life, day after day, suddenly like a dream.
Su Ling and the three of them put all their hopes on the Mai Yu Pei, and the three of them had followed the Yu Pei for a day and a night, and there was silence all around, and the depression was terrifying. As far as the eye can see, the environment is still the same, and I really don't know when it will end.
The hunger in the stomach is unbearable, but how can there be food here, the three of them rely on their cultivation to resist, in addition to the physical strength consumed, there is also the vitality that continues to flow, and the speed of walking is getting slower and slower, at first the three of them talked to each other, and they didn't bother to say a word in the back, saving the consumption of physical strength.
Fortunately, in the evening of the next day, Su Ling and the three finally saw a wasteland.
This is just an ordinary wasteland, but the depressed mood of the three of them instantly brightened, and the three of them almost ran towards the wasteland with Yu Pei.
Successfully got out of the Immortal Forest, the three of them all had a good breath, and there was sparse and decayed gray and yellow grass growing around, Li Qi took back the jade pendant, and the three of them ran away from the Immortal Forest. At this time, what I want most is to find a restaurant to have a meal and sleep beautifully.
Immortal Lin is too depressing.
Bai Ziyang took out the relics from his arms, perhaps because he was next to Su Ling, the relics were the same as when they were taken out from the young man, this task was completed inexplicably, with Li Qi by his side, everything seemed to be simpler.
After walking for about an hour, the night had slowly fallen, and a small town could be seen in the distance.
The three of them almost ran towards the town.
found a small restaurant, ordered a bunch of dishes, ordered a jar of wine, the three of them looked at the night, and finally began to eat and chat.
Halfway through dinner, they suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums around them, and then the three of them saw a large group of people, each carrying a lantern in their hands, and there should be light beads in the lantern, and a colorful cover was put on the outside, emitting colorful light, and the surrounding area was bright.
happened to see such an interesting scene, and the three of them were excited to watch it.
Adults led children, men led women, and a large group of people passed under the restaurant, and it took half an hour for the team to pass under the restaurant.
Su Ling and the three of them were eating energetically, and the wine money had not been paid, but the boss hurriedly put on a lantern and followed the procession on the street.
"Boss, you still haven't confiscated the money?" Su Ling shouted at the boss.
The boss glanced at Su Ling and shouted, "You just put it on the table." And he went out.
Su Ling and the three of them think it's funny, such a boss is really rare, if you meet a bad person, not to mention the money for this meal, maybe you steal something else in the store, and then run away, the boss can only beat his chest afterwards, this world is so big, where to find someone?
However, the three of them naturally couldn't do such a thing to eat the overlord's meal, although they were tired at this time, but the three of them were chatting energetically for the rest of their lives, and they didn't mind waiting for the boss for a while, so they would help the boss take care of the small restaurant by the way, so as not to mess with the thief.
This wait was about two hours, and when the boss came back with the lantern, he was also stunned when he saw the three people sitting on the table chatting, but then smiled, "The three guest officers are so Yaxing." ”
"Boss, what happened just now?" asked Su Ling.
Hearing this, the boss smiled and sat down beside the three of them, and said, "The guest officer is from other places, this is a local custom in our area, and the lantern festival is held every year." ”
"It feels like it's fun," Su Ling said excitedly, "This event will be held for a few days, and I will also participate in it." ”
The boss smiled when he heard this, and said, "In previous years, there will be three nights in a row, this event is not only to pray for blessings, but also a good opportunity for us unmarried men, hehe." I found a girl last year, and we had a good conversation," the boss said with a sudden sigh, "but unfortunately it was still not suitable later." ”
"Does that mean there will be tomorrow?" Su Ling was overjoyed, he who left Chen Zi was like a bird that had been released, and he couldn't wait to release his nature.
The boss is a young man in his twenties, who seems to be dignified, but when he laughs, the whole person is full of an obscene atmosphere, and he seems to be the only one in the whole restaurant, perhaps because the town is small, and there is no shop boy who even greets customers. Hearing Su Ling's words, the boss sighed heavily, shook his head and said, "Originally, there was." ”
Su Ling was stunned for a moment, and said hurriedly, "What do you mean that there was originally there?"
"Not long ago, a group of people came to the town, sixteen people, each riding a strange beast, claiming to be the sixteen horses of the Southern Wilderness, saying that it was a graduate of the first academy in the mainland, insisting that there are evil spirits in our town, and it is really ridiculous to requisition the practice of our town's Gathering Spirit Temple," the boss said and slapped the table heavily, as if he was not lightly angry, which frightened Su Ling, "Although our town is small, but each of them keeps to themselves on weekdays and does not close their doors at night, where do the evil spirits come from?"
"What does this have to do with the Lantern Festival?" Su Ling wondered.
The boss glanced at Su Ling, seemed to realize his gaffe, and showed this appearance in front of strangers, which was really not in line with his usual gentle and elegant temperament, and let out a sigh of relief, and then said, "The destination of the lantern is the Juling Temple, at that time, every household will go up one by one to incense, but it is all the trick of the old people, we are all looking for beautiful girls outside." Alas, it's a pity that now the Juling Temple is occupied, more than a dozen strange beasts are parked at the door, and there are sixteen people sitting inside, who is still in the mood to go in and worship, in previous years, the lantern festival would almost last all night, and this year it ended so early and hastily, all blame the sixteen grandsons. ”
As he spoke, the boss was still angry, and said, "Originally, I just found a nice girl outside the temple, and I was just about to go over to chat a few words, but I was driven away by those sixteen grandsons. By the way, do you know what the first academy in the continent is? What kind of bullshit academy, giving yourself such a terrible name, it is not a good thing when you hear it, it must be nondescript, and the students who teach it will be like this, bullying others. ”
Su Ling and the three of them all looked at each other in embarrassment, and coughed together, Su Ling tried to explain, "Maybe they are not from that academy, they are just pulling tiger skins to make big flags." ”
"What kind of tiger skin is pulling?" the boss glanced at Su Ling and said, "Where in the world can there be such an academy, and with such a name, it is not for people to destroy it in minutes." I guess it's also something made up by those sixteen people, trying to scare us, everyone knows it very well in their hearts, and I just hope that these sixteen gods will leave quickly. ”
Su Ling was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know how to continue to talk to this simple boss, thinking that the three of them hadn't had a good night's sleep in a few days, so he asked, "Boss, do you provide housing here?"
The boss regained his calm again, and said, "Naturally, there is, the second floor is the guest room, there are not many guests in the small shop today, the guest officer can choose a room to live in, in the past, at this time of year, the small shop should be full, and the men and women joined the team in pairs, hehe." ”
Su Ling and the three of them were all stunned, and looked at the boss together, this person was polite and dignified on the surface, but he was so obscene in his bones, they all smiled and went upstairs.
"By the way, Ziyang, do you have silver taels on you?" On the stairs, Su Ling, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and glanced at Bai Ziyang.
Bai Ziyang turned his head and glanced at Li Qi, then looked back at Su Lingdao, "Li Qi should have it." ”
After Ziyang finished speaking, his shoulders were pulled, and he saw Li Qi's face full of embarrassment, and said, "Who told you that I have silver taels? I didn't bring anything with me." ”
"It's over, now we're really going to eat the overlord meal. Su Ling glanced at the boss who walked to the counter and was flipping through the book, and lowered his voice and said, "What should I do, do you want to talk to the boss first?" I think he should let us live, we don't look like liars." ”
"This," Li Qi began to pinch the trick with his right hand again, and replied casually, "I think we are so tired now, how about we sleep first? I will tell the boss when I get up tomorrow, and if it really doesn't work, I will go out and earn some silver taels and return it to him." ”
"Agreed. Su Ling and Ziyang opened their mouths in unison, and then burst into laughter.
At that time, when they were young, this kind of sneaky thing made the three of them feel very fresh, and the atmosphere was very happy for a while.
The boss looked up at the three people who were laughing loudly, and when he saw that the three of them were secretly talking something again, he shook his head, cleared his thoughts, and stared at the book in his hand again.
