Jiangcheng lanterns
The human world, settled in Jiangcheng.
The night is noisy, there are more than a dozen painting boats on the river, the bright moon is like a bath, the lights and moonlight are reflected on the lake, the river is pouring into the city, and the world is prosperous.
A few figures appeared in the starry night sky, their clothes fluttering, and they landed silently on the roof, and thousands of stars formed a huge starry sky curtain behind them.
Gong Qianzhu stood beside Gong Xuanyue, taking in the bustling night scene by the river, slightly in a trance, as if everything had returned to that year, when everything had just begun.
"Qianzhu, why do you want to come here?" Gong Xuanyue had already cast a spell, their hair and eyes had turned into the inky black of mortals, even so, the noble ones were still noble, and they couldn't hide the dust on their bodies.
Gong Qianzhu's expression was a little abrupt, as if he was reminiscing, "I once met a very special person here, but now he is no longer there, but I still want to come here to have a look." ”
Gong Xuanyue looked at her sideways for a long time, took her hand and jumped off the roof, the pedestrians on the road rushed back and forth, they flew down like this and landed lightly, but for some reason it didn't cause any commotion, and the pedestrians looked as usual, as if they were just air.
Jiangcheng seems to be in the local festival, all kinds of lanterns are dizzying, a piece of lights is dim, there are all kinds of ghost masks with green fangs sold everywhere, the river breeze blows with a slightly fishy smell, and from time to time a few Kong Ming lanterns also staggered into the night sky, with the full wish of the lantern people.
Gong Qianzhu looked at it and relaxed slightly, I heard that since Fu Xi was born, there have been many natural and man-made disasters in the Six Realms, and the common people are miserable, and now that she has seen it with her own eyes, it must be all nonsense.
This is almost the first time she has really laughed since leaving Jiu Ge in more than a year, sitting on the painting boat in the middle of the river, there is a brilliant Yan Shan in front of her, Gong Xuanyue stood at the bow of the boat and looked at her with a picturesque smile, her eyes flashed, and her body appeared translucent for a moment, and he smiled bitterly.
Qianzhu, you see, providence makes people, and my sister still can't accompany you far after all.
As if feeling a very sad gaze, after Gong Qianzhu went ashore, he looked back in a daze with the lotus water lantern handed by Bai Zhi in his hand, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"
"It's fine. He smiled and was shocked by the light of day, walked up to her and asked, "What is this lotus lantern for?"
"Oh, this one, it's used by people to make wishes. Gong Qianzhu was really distracted, holding the lotus lantern and smiling at him, "I used to see it often in the human world, but I never had the opportunity to put it myself." ”
Make a wish?Gong Xuanyue took the other water lantern she handed over, and said with some puzzlement: "What do you want to tell your sister, why do you want to make a wish?"
"I ...... Nothing particularly wanted. Her smile faded a little, or maybe it was what she wanted, something she could never come back to.
A painful picture flashed in front of her eyes, and she felt a cramping pain in her heart, and hurriedly tried to suppress it, this was the first time that her sister had accompanied her out for so many years, and she wanted to be happy.
She pulled Gong Xuanyue down the bluestone steps, stuffed the note with the wish into the lantern, and then gently put the lotus lantern in her hand into the water, the lantern staggered into the distance, and soon a gust of river wind blew, and the lantern flashed and went out.
Gong Qianzhu froze in place, staring blankly at the only lotus lamp that was extinguished among the thousands of lights in the water, and lost his mind.
Gong Xuanyue comforted: "It's okay, it's just a formality, Qianzhu's wish will definitely come true." ”
She nodded, turned and ran to the shore dam.
Gong Xuanyue quietly stared at her and Bai Zhi walking around, her eyes wandered, and she fell to the lotus lantern that had drifted away in the water, and gathered surging true qi in her palm, and sucked the lantern that had been extinguished from the water.
He took out the note in the lantern and unfolded it, was slightly stunned, and suddenly smiled.
She's not lying, she doesn't have anything she particularly wants.
I crumpled the note into a ball and threw it away, and I wanted to break it into powder, but for some reason I gave up.
Chu Zhencheng looked thoughtfully at his departing back, and re-sucked up the paper ball and unfolded it, it was crumpled and blank except for a few water stains, and nothing was written.
The five fingers were slowly clenched, just now he saw Gong Xuanyue holding the pen for a long time, and stuffed a blank note into the lantern, knowing that he had the power to dominate the world, and there was no need to make a wish, and Gong Qianzhu was like this, why?
Is it truly desireless, or is it already discouraged and afraid to expect anything?
