The two of them continued to enjoy the river.

The scenery of the Yuanjiang River is generally very beautiful, even in the cold winter.

Whether it's cold plum or snow, or holly and verdant, even if it's just the reeds and snow, it's very beautiful.

Occasionally, the fishing boat would come to a halt, but not for long, before setting sail again.

It seems that on this trip, Ye Fan just took Xiao Feng to play, aimlessly.

Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is the Lantern Festival.

The fishing boat sailed into the Ming Lake in Yangzhou City.

The two of them entered Yangzhou City.

Yangzhou City is lively, not only because of the Lantern Festival, but also because of the custom of a famous flower.

Shine on flowers, shine naturally not ordinary flowers, but beauty flowers.

Zhaohua originated from a vulgar and vulgar transaction.

At that time, someone set up a table at the lantern party, invited a few beauties to come on stage to light a lantern, left their names on the note, and then the beauties chose talents to paint inscriptions for them.

After a picture of a beautiful woman is completed, it is hung behind the lantern, and if someone likes it, it can be bought and sold.

The money sold is divided equally among the three parties.

Yangzhou City has many talented and beautiful women, talented gentlemen, and beauties invite each other, so naturally there is no reason to refuse, not to mention the silver money that is obtained for nothing, and it can also make itself famous.

Therefore, this practice has been very popular since it was launched.

Now after several changes, I don't care about money transactions, but it has become a good way to find a lover, which is also elegant, and it has gradually become a custom, but it has also achieved a lot of enviable marriages.

Xiao Feng was very sleepy, not to mention seeing the talented and beautiful women whispering hand in hand, he was not so interested, so he slept directly for a day, and when he woke up, the sky outside the window was already dark.

The Lantern Festival, the most lively is the night.

Ye Fan smiled and said that Xiao Feng woke up at a really good time, but he was willing to go out for a walk, Xiao Feng nodded and agreed.

Tonight's night view is excellent, jacquard lanterns and lanterns abound, and the lights and moon are intertwined, and it is beautiful.

Xiao Feng and Ye Fan walked on the street at will.

There are many fairy couples around, and the moon shadow light is drunk.

Halfway through, there happened to be a mask seller on the street, so Xiao Feng asked for one, and Ye Fan also asked for one.

Xiao Feng is a monkey, Ye Fan is a pig, and it is funny that it is no different.

The two of you look at me, I look at you, and they both think it's funny.

After walking for a while, the two arrived at the Lantern Festival.

The dazzling lanterns are colorful, in a thousand postures, and visitors shuttle between the lanterns, talking and laughing, and beaming.

Xiao Feng looked at the rows of lanterns, the riddles of the lanterns were the same, but the pictures of beauties behind the lanterns were very pleasing to the eye.

The beauties in the paintings are generally more beautiful than in reality.

"This, can you show it to me?" After looking at it for a while, Xiao Feng stopped and pointed to a painting and asked.

The man who sold the painting was a man in his forties and fifties, and when he saw Xiao Feng being such a small man, he was stunned, and then saw Ye Fan on the side, with a look of understanding on his face.

"The price of this painting starts at fifty taels, and the little master can look at it carefully. ”

Xiao Feng nodded, took the painting and looked at it carefully.

The painting is a woman playing the huqin in the flowers, with some sadness between her eyebrows, and her face covered with tulle, and her temperament is very good.

"The clouds cover the city and the moon, and the fog is rainbow. Ye Fan read the inscription on the painting and chuckled, "She can't afford it." ”

"Do you know?" Xiao Feng looked at him in surprise.

"I saw her when I went to Zhuge 's house," Ye Fan smiled, "I just didn't expect her to come out." ”

"Then it's time for them to come, too. Xiao Feng muttered to himself, and looked up at the middle-aged man selling paintings, "If I want to see the person in the painting, do you have a way?"

The man listened to this big and small conversation, and he heard it inexplicably, but he didn't hear it a good word, thinking that this order was going to be cold, and suddenly heard Xiao Feng ask such a sentence, and he was instantly overjoyed, "Naturally." ”

The two parties pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other.

The man gave Xiao Feng an address.

Ye Fan didn't speak from beginning to end, as if Xiao Feng wanted to do something.

"Mingyue Tower. Xiao Feng hugged the painting box, looked at the brilliant lights in the northeast, and frowned slightly.

Mingyue Tower is not an inn, but a place of silk and bamboo orchestra, which is a more famous place in Yangzhou City, and is naturally more lively now.

In the midst of heavy thoughts, Ye Fan suddenly pulled Xiao Feng by the hand, "Look at some people." ”

Xiao Feng looked back, and there was a little beggar in the place where he was just staying.

He pursed his lips and said lightly, "Thank you." ”

"Do you want to go to Mingyue Tower?" Ye Fan said indifferently.

Xiao Feng was just about to answer, but the little beggar suddenly shouted, "Xiao Feng?"

Xiao Feng's body froze, and he looked at the little beggar sharply.

It was Zhu Qingrong.

"Is there any news of my brother?" Zhu Qingrong wiped her face and asked with a smile.

Xiao Feng didn't answer.

The last time this girl was in the deserted city, she fainted and asked him to save her brother when she woke up.

It's just that he doesn't want to interfere in the matter of the blood drinking sword, and he and Zhu Qingshan's brothers and sisters are just meeting in Pingshui, and he reminded him that he was already benevolent and righteous, so naturally it was impossible for him to change his original intention just because she begged him, so he didn't answer her, just let her stay in the deserted city with peace of mind.

When he left the deserted city, this girl was still obedient, thinking that no one had paid attention to her these days, and she ran out by herself when she got angry.

"Still haven't you found it?" Zhu Qingrong was a little sad, and after a while, she raised her head and said aggrievedly, "Aren't you very powerful, why can't you find it?"

Xiao Feng pursed his lips and stepped forward to wipe her face, "Why are you here?"

"You go away, I hate you. Zhu Qingrong pushed Xiao Feng away, got up and ran out suddenly.

The people around looked at each other, but they didn't understand what was going on.

Ye Fan helped Xiao Feng up and patted the soil on his body, "You don't owe her, why do you have to accommodate her like this." ”

Xiao Feng's eyes were a little dark, he shook his head, and didn't answer.

"Are you tired?" Ye Fan took the painting box from Xiao Feng's hand, picked him up and asked.

Xiao Feng let him hold him and shook his head.

Ye Fan smiled, "Then go to Mingyue Tower?"

Xiao Feng looked at the brilliant lights again and nodded heavily.

......

Silk and bamboo surround the beam, and the moonlight reflects the moon.

Mingyue Tower is a well-known beautiful thing.

When the two climbed the Mingyue Tower, there was a burst of cheers in the Mingyue Tower, followed by the sound of the huqin.

Standing in red and playing the piano in the clear moonlight, the clothes and belts fluttered in the wind, and the whole person seemed to fly into the moon cold, which was indescribably out of the dust.

The two of them found a place to sit down, and immediately a waiter stepped forward to ask.

Ye Fan asked for a pot of tea, asked for a few plates of pastries, looked at Xiao Feng and asked for a pot of boiled water.

The waiter nodded and withdrew.

Refreshments came quickly.

Ye Fan drank tea and listened to the music.

Xiao Feng just looked at the red clothes, his eyes were a little complicated.

Hu Qin played for a moment, and the red dress retreated into the back hall.

Xiao Feng lowered his head, indescribably tired.

Immediately afterwards, another person came up, a luthier, with a melodious tune, like mountains and rivers.

After a moment of music, Xiao Feng seemed to have made up his mind, raised his head and said, "I ......"

"I'll go with you, you can't move now. Ye Fan interrupted.

Xiao Feng lowered his head again and did not speak.

Ye Fan continued, "Even if you recover a little, you say that you can defeat them, but what is the price, you should also know that your time is running out, and you can't have more time to cultivate." ”

"Don't be pushy. He patted the boy on the shoulder and said gently.

"Hmm. Xiao Feng exhaled and nodded.

"Tired?" Ye Fan rubbed the young man's head and smiled.

"Sort of. Xiao Feng looked up and smiled, "So hurry up." ”

"Hmm. Ye Fan nodded, threw a piece of broken silver on the table, picked up Xiao Feng and went downstairs.

......

Behind the bright moon building, the lights are dim.

Ye Fan put Xiao Feng down, bent down and smiled, "You have to believe me now." ”

Xiao Feng's expression was a little complicated, but he still nodded.

Now, he has nothing to do but believe in him.

Ye Fan stretched his waist slightly, and led Xiao Feng to a place where the lights were even more sparse.

There was a wind all around.

The two stopped.

Ye Fan took a step back, he was just protecting Xiao Feng's safety.

"I didn't expect you to go this way. There was no one around, Xiao Feng said softly.

"I'm not wrong. After the rockery, he walked out in red, and his long hair was wantonly in the night breeze.

"Yes, you may be able to take off the veil that disgusts you so much. Xiao Feng said lightly.

The red-clothed man sneered, and his veil fluttered in the night wind, revealing a fair face without any scars, "You know again?"

"Maybe it's my last remark that was heavy, but I'm glad I did. Xiao Feng still spoke lightly.

"I hate you like that. Hua Lianyue frowned, "Why do you think what is right is right, and why do you interfere in the affairs of the Zhuge family?"

"Are you because of the Zhuge family?" Xiao Feng asked rhetorically.

"I'm here to keep Zhuge Mo's efforts from burning. Hua Liyue emphasized.

"Who drew your face in the first place?" Xiao Feng took a step forward and asked calmly.

Hua Liyue didn't answer.

"Why did you forget how to play chess?" Xiao Feng asked again.

Hua Lingyue still didn't answer.

Xiao Feng took another step forward, "I don't know what you knew and what you went through back then, but you are not qualified to decide the fate of the Zhuge family, nor are you qualified to decide which way Zhuge will go." ”

Hua Lingyue's face suddenly gloomy, "Then you are qualified?"

"Back then, why did you want to live in seclusion in the Zhuge family?" Xiao Feng did not answer.

Hua Lianyue sneered, "Why did you go to see those codexes of the Zhuge family?"

"You're afraid of death. Xiao Feng still didn't answer, but took his own question.

"I don't know why you're so afraid of death, but you're in the Zhuge family just because you're afraid of death. Xiao Feng said lightly, "Now, you feel that even the Zhuge family can't protect you, so you will embark on this road." ”

"You are talking nonsense!" Hua Liyue's face turned hideous, "Zhuge Li is a stupid person, are you also a stupid person when I am a fool, will you listen to your nonsense?"

"Then why are you coming out now?" Xiao Feng said calmly.

"What about you? Why are you setting up such a big game? Not because of your own selfishness?"

"I don't deny it. Xiao Feng smiled, "No one is an inexplicable savior, and neither am I." ”

"I laid out the layout, at first just for a bet, and then I thought that this bet was not interesting, just because I couldn't get used to it. ”

He paused and continued, "From beginning to end, I have never involved myself, and when it is over, there will be no more shadows of me, and it makes no sense for you to compare with me. ”

Hua Liyue suddenly stopped talking.

"What about them?" Xiao Feng asked softly.

Hua Lingyue still didn't speak.

Xiao Feng was silent for a while, and said lightly, "You can be glad that I didn't get news from Piaoyilou, otherwise you would be a dead man by now." ”

Hua Lianyue suddenly laughed, "Do you know, Qingluo has a child. ”

Xiao Feng didn't speak, but his eyes became colder.

"There was a guy who also had a baby, seven months old, and then she ate red beans. Hua Lingyue continued.

"You won't kill Han Qingluo. Xiao Feng said lightly.

"I gave her to them. Hua Liyue smiled happily and said, "They healed my face." ”

"Then?" Xiao Feng looked at her, his body trembling a little, but his voice was calm.

"Zhuge Li doesn't know," Hua Liyue replied, "I told him that Qingluo went to look for you, so he went to look for you." ”

Xiao Feng looked at her and looked into her eyes, "Did he really go?" Then you will still come here and lure me over?"

"I only brought you here because I heard something and wanted to be sure. Behind Hua Lingyue, someone answered.

"Netherworld or me?" Xiao Feng said unsurprised.

"It seems to be true. The middle-aged man who came out shook his head with a smile, "It's ironic to see that those people were so scared that you crawled out of the mud, but as a result, you are so unbearable." ”

"Definitely. Xiao Feng didn't care.

"Why don't you invite Xiaoyou to sit in the burrow?" the middle-aged man took a few steps forward and said gently.

"Yes. Xiao Feng nodded.

"I like smart people like Xiaoyou. The middle-aged man smiled.

"But I have one condition. Xiao Feng added.

"Let's talk about it, little friend. The middle-aged man made a gesture of please.

"Put Han Qingluo back. ”

"Xiaoyou actually believes it?" said the middle-aged man with some incredulity.

"If it's someone else, I don't believe it, but if it's the only bloodline of the Zhuge family, I believe it. Xiao Feng looked at the middle-aged man, "You will definitely do this." ”

"Xiaoyou is a person who understands. The middle-aged man hooked the corners of his mouth, a little meaningful, "Okay." ”

"Let's go. Xiao Feng nodded and took a few steps forward.

The wind was rushing all around.

Xiao Feng's footsteps paused, "Since you are so worried about me, aren't you afraid that I will go and demolish your Tianji Pavilion?"

The middle-aged man waved his hand.

The wind stopped, and a few dead leaves fell.

"Is that friend going to follow too?" The middle-aged man looked at the young man who walked in front of him, swept his eyes at Ye Fan, and asked with a smile.

"I'm alone. Xiao Feng raised his head and said very calmly.

"It's so bold. The middle-aged man laughed heartily, bent down and made a gesture of please, "Please!"

Xiao Feng nodded, glanced at Ye Fan, and followed the direction of the middle-aged man's guidance.

In the darkness, there were many black shadows following closely.

The cold wind was blowing, and there was soon no sound around.

Ye Fan smiled helplessly.

This young man, sure enough, took all the matter on himself again.

He frowned again, but with the situation of the teenager, would there be any chaos?

If the dragon swims in the shallows and is played with shrimp, it will not be good.
