Tian Zhiyu took Tian Jing's hand, followed Ma Bencai and Wu Lihan, and walked along the river that ran through Taiyuan City.

Walking and walking, Tian Zhiyu found that there were fewer people along the river, but what was more embarrassing was that most of the people walking by the river were young couples, and the boys and girls deliberately walked in places where the lights were not so bright, whispering, fighting, and playing.

And Tian Zhiyu looked at Ma Bencai, then at Wu Lihan, and then at Tian Jing who was holding him, and suddenly felt that this combination was a bit unpleasant, but fortunately, in the crowd of people who came and went, no one paid special attention to them, but Tian Jing was shocked from time to time, and he felt novel when he saw everything, which made Tian Zhiyu keep looking around.

After walking for a while, the most prosperous area passed, and the front was not so bright ordinary residential area, and the three people went back and walked back to the area of the Drum Tower, at this time the crowd in the open area had been evacuated, and several simple platforms were erected, and many people were surrounded in front of each platform.

Ma Bencai said: "Let's go, go and see, it seems to be singing." ”

The four of them stepped forward, and sure enough, a few actors on the first stage were babbling and singing, Ma Bencai immediately began to hum, Tian Zhiyu was trying to hear what kind of drama it was, and felt that Tian Jing was pulling his sleeve, he looked down, it turned out that she was standing in the crowd and couldn't see anything, so she could only ask for help pitifully, Tian Zhiyu smiled and carried her on his shoulders again.

After listening to it for a while, Tian Zhiyu didn't understand, and asked Ma Bencai to know that he was singing a story similar to "The Legend of Yingying".

The talented and beautiful fell in love at first sight, and the talented man wanted to go to Beijing to catch the exam, so that the beautiful woman waited for herself, but she was unwilling to go back after the exam.

After singing a paragraph, Ma Bencai took them to the next stage, on which were two storytellers.

When Tian Zhiyu heard it, the two of them also told the story of a talented and beautiful woman, but unlike the opera just now, the story of these two people was also mixed with a lot of meat jokes, but the level of telling was far worse than that of the old man Shen Yishan that night.

Rao is like this, the audience below still listens to it with relish, and the number of people is obviously more than that of the opera.

Tian Zhiyu saw that Tian Jing also listened carefully, for fear that her young mind would be poisoned by the dregs culture, so she hurriedly persuaded Ma Bencai to go to the next one.

turned two more stages, either opera or storytelling, until the last one, Tian Zhiyu saw that there were two monks on the stage.

These two people, a monk and a nun, are singing and preaching Buddhism, and expounding the six reincarnations through many interesting stories, Tian Zhiyu didn't listen to each other very much, and saw that Ma Bencai still listened to it with relish, so he asked: "Brother Ma, what's so good about this?"

"Don't worry about the rain, you'll know in a while, and watch the show," Ma Bencai said with a mysterious face.

Tian Zhiyu couldn't help but be a little curious, could it be that the two monks would become magical for a while?

After listening to it for a few minutes, Tian Zhiyu didn't hear a reason, Tian Jing above was a little unhappy, and said: "Brother Tian, let's go and read the story, these two monks are boring, it's not fun at all." ”

When Ma Bencai heard it, he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, don't worry, the show will start soon." ”

Sure enough, after two more short stories were told, followed by a piece of cheerful music, Tian Zhiyu thought, this Buddhist music is also a little improper. And what happened next made Tian Zhiyu even more shocked.

I saw that the monk rolled up his sleeves, and he had the seriousness of a high-ranking monk, but suddenly became obscene, he first took the nun's hand, and then got up and walked around the venue, and then opened his mouth to sing, which was neither a Buddhist scripture nor a precept, but an erotic song.

This is not over, the originally dignified little nun, at first she was shy to answer, but later she began to cooperate with the monk, not only occasionally singing a few sentences, but also pulling and pulling with the monk, completely without the pure appearance of the six roots.

What is this, Tian Zhiyu thought that he wanted to leave immediately, these may be more poisonous to Tian Jing than the story just now, he pulled the horse Bencai, and was about to say leave, Tian Jing above actually said: "Don't go, Brother Tian, let's listen." These two monks are quite interesting. ”

Ma Bencai glanced at Tian Zhiyu and said, "Look, the little girl knows it's interesting, let's take a look at it for a while." ”

After accompanying the three of them to watch the contemporary 'two-person turn' of monks and nuns, Tian Zhiyu still couldn't react, and once suspected that the monks and nuns were fake.

On the way back, Ma Bencai explained to him that the monk and nun were both from Fayin Temple, a famous temple in Taiyuan, and that some such activities would often be held in Taiyuan, the purpose of which was nothing more than to attract more pilgrims.

Originally, Fayin Temple would also hold lectures to promote Buddhist scriptures, but Buddhism was too obscure and profound, and the general public did not understand it at all, and there were few believers, and the incense was not prosperous.

Seeing that he could no longer hold on, the abbot went to other temples to inquire and found that people were relying on the same model to attract believers, and the incense was becoming more and more vigorous.

Tian Zhiyu smacked his tongue when he heard this, but he didn't expect that in order to continue the incense, the Buddhists could put aside the rules and precepts and rely on the seven emotions and six desires to attract believers like ordinary people.

Walking and walking, they walked to the Spring Pavilion, Ma Bencai slowed down and said, "A few people, do you want to go in and rest for a while?"

Tian Zhiyu saw that Wu Lihan also seemed to want to go in, since the last time he spent the Spring Festival with the falling girl in the Spring Pavilion on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, although he didn't say it, Tian Zhiyu could feel that he was a little interesting to the girl. Now that Ma Bencai has proposed, Wu Lihan is probably also moved.

Tian Zhiyu said: "You two go, I still have to accompany the little oil bottle," he said and pointed to Tian Jing, who was still riding on his neck.

Tian Jing, who was originally drowsy, suddenly became energetic and said, "Brother Tian, let's go along, there are so many lanterns and so many people, it should be quite fun." ”

Tian Zhiyu looked at her childish words, smiled helplessly, and said: "This is a place where only adults can go, you are still young, you can't go yet." ”

He said to Ma Bencai and Wu Lihan again: "Two big brothers, go ahead, I'll take Jing'er home." ”

Ma Bencai said again: "Then you put her down and come back, we will wait for you." ”

"No, Brother Tian can't leave Jing'er alone at home, Jing'er will be afraid," Tian Jing said in a hurry.

Tian Zhiyu felt her hugging him tightly, and said with a smile: "The two big brothers don't care about me, you just have to play," and waved his hand to the two of them, carrying Tian Jing away.

When she got home, Tian Jing was already asleep, Tian Zhiyu put her on the bed and settled down, looked at the time, it was almost the time agreed with Su Yijin, and hurriedly set off.

But when he entered Su Yijin's room and found that Su Yijin hadn't come back yet, he saw that there were a lot of inkblots on her desk that he hadn't had time to clean up, so he sat down and slowly admired it.

Most of the words and songs on the paper are written Tian Zhiyu's "doing", and there are also some graffiti, Tian Zhiyu carefully identified it, and found that Tian Zhiyu's name was written indiscriminately, as well as words and phrases such as 'forget-me-not' and 'work hard to add food', but he may be afraid of being seen by others, his name and these words and sentences are covered with pen and ink.

Tian Zhiyu's eyes were a little moist, this stupid girl would stay in this mixed place for two years, and I don't know how many times the two of them could see each other in two years.

He found clean paper, picked up a pen, and regardless of how ugly his handwriting was, he wrote crookedly: "I want to know Qing and live a long life." There are no tombs in the mountains, the rivers are exhausted, thunder and earthquakes in winter, rain and snow in summer, heaven and earth are combined, but dare to be with Qing!

Then he thought about it, and wrote: Xianyun is clever, the flying star spreads hatred, and the silver man is dark. As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win and there are countless people in the world. Tenderness is like water, the best period is like a dream, and you can endure the return of the Magpie Bridge. If the two love for a long time, how can they be there, morning and twilight?

was thinking about writing some lyrical poems, but when he heard the sound of Su Yijin and Red Sleeves talking outside, he quickly rolled up the paper and hid behind her window.

Fortunately, Red Sleeves only stayed in the house for a while, and then went out after telling Su Yijin to rest early. Su Yijin walked to the window lightly, looked outside, there was no Tian Zhiyu, sat down again, picked up the pen and began to write and draw.

Tian Zhiyu walked out quietly, walked behind her, and said softly, "Jin'er, what are you writing?"

Su Yijin was startled by Tian Zhiyu behind her, and was about to call out, but Tian Zhiyu quickly blocked her mouth with his hand when he saw this, and said, "It's me Jin'er, don't be afraid." ”

Su Yijin saw that it was him, so she stopped struggling, hit him twice, and said, "You villain, you have come a long time ago, hide here to scare me, but fortunately I didn't shout." ”

Tian Zhiyu held her in his arms and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I scared you." ”

Su Yijin also hugged him, hugged him tightly, and said, "Jin'er can't bear to brother." ”

The two of them said a lot of things with their ears and temples, as if they wanted to finish the words of the next two years, and finally Tian Zhiyu deliberately said: "Jin'er, when I came in, I saw that there were a lot of words written on your desk, why are some of them blacked out again?"

Su Yijin hurriedly broke free from his embrace and was about to put away the papers, Tian Zhiyu smiled: "Silly girl, don't be busy, I have already finished reading it just now." ”

"I hate it, peeking at other people's things," Su Yijin sneered, but still put away the papers.

Tian Zhiyu took out the words he had written, thought about it and gave it to her, and said, "This is what I wrote for you, you can take a look." ”

Su Yijin took it, and couldn't help laughing before she could read the content, and said while laughing: "Brother, is this what you can write, it's too ...... It's so personal. ”

She originally wanted to say that she was ugly directly, but she was afraid of hurting her sweetheart's self-esteem, so she replaced it with personality.

Tian Zhiyu pretended to be angry and slapped her buttocks, which made Su Yijin angry, but after she finished reading the words above, she couldn't help but throw herself into Tian Zhiyu's arms, and said in a low voice: "Brother, although the words are ugly, the poems are too beautiful, Jin'er likes it, the mountains are edgeless, the heaven and the earth are together, but dare to be with the king, Jin'er must do it, if the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight, how did you come up with such a beautiful sentence brother?"

Listening to Su Yijin muttering in a low voice, the imminent sorrow in Tian Zhiyu's heart slowly dissipated a little, yes, if the relationship between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight, two years is also very fast, at that time, he will become a master no matter what, and protect everyone around him.

"Jin'er, tonight is the Midyear Festival, let's go out for a walk, the lanterns outside are beautiful," Tian Zhiyu said.

Su Yijin nodded and said, "Okay, brother, you wait for me to change clothes, Jin'er wants to dress up as a man, so it's easier to go out." ”

Su Yijin's men's clothes seem to be more neutral than Nuan Yue, she doesn't have a pure white fox fur, just a common men's jacket over a cotton jacket, with a men's hat on her head, but she is petite, how do you look at it and think she is a little boy.

Walking on the road, Tian Zhiyu still looked at her from time to time, and Su Yijin finally couldn't help but say, "Brother, isn't it inappropriate for Jin'er to wear this dress?"

Tian Zhiyu took her hand and said with a smile: "It's very suitable, Jin'er looks good in anything, and she looks good in men's clothes." ”

"Poor mouth," Su Yijin happily followed Tian Zhiyu, at first she was afraid of meeting acquaintances, but when she walked to a crowded place, she didn't worry so much, she quietly took Tian Zhiyu's hand and looked around curiously, which was not much different from Tian Jing's performance just now.

"Jin'er, haven't you seen these lanterns before?" Tian Zhiyu couldn't help asking.

Su Yijin shook his head and said, "No, I only know that there is, but I have never looked at it carefully." When I was young, Master didn't allow us to go out without permission, and when we arrived in Taiyuan, we had to perform until very late on the Shangyuan Festival every year, and there was no one on the street. ”

Tian Zhiyu felt a little sorry for her, and said, "Then let's go slowly and watch slowly." ”

"Well, brother, let's buy a sugar gourd for Jin'er in a while, Master never allowed us to eat this kind of thing, saying that it would hurt our throats, and we wouldn't be able to sing good songs in the future," Su Yijin said pitifully.

How could Tian Zhiyu not agree?

Not only did he buy her a sugar gourd, but he also bought all the things he had bought for Tian Jing, and the two walked to the river again, at this time most of the people on the street had already gone home, only the young men and women who were nostalgic for the night and their lovers were still spending the night under the lanterns.
