Volume 2 Shadow Shadow Chapter 210 Lantern Festival
As the sun sets, the afterglow is faint.
The soft glow of the glow shone on the majestic thousand-year-old city, and the city walls seemed to be plated with a layer of colorful clothing.
Although it was already evening, the "Yizhou City" was full of people and noisy.
Every household is lit up, and the streets and alleys are crowded with people, creating a festive atmosphere.
When Shen Yun entered the gate of "Yizhou City", he found that there were more than 20 guards at the city gate, and they were particularly careful.
Now, after entering the city, I couldn't help but be a little surprised to see such a gorgeous and gorgeous arrangement in front of me.
When I asked passers-by, I found out that it was the annual "Lantern Festival" a few days later, so the whole city would be so lavishly arranged.
Shen Yun was born in a poor and remote "Black Stone Village", and all year round, he worries about his livelihood, except for the New Year, where will there be so many festivals.
Although he is only a sixteen-year-old boy, his mind is far more mature than his peers, and as an inner disciple of the Yuanqi Sect, his vision is different from the past.
Therefore, Shen Yun did not have much interest in these secular festivals.
The Night Girl is accustomed to seeing the prosperity of the world, and she is also like Shen Yun.
On the contrary, it is Bai Xue and Xiao Ash, the two of them have been living in the "Yellow Spring Secret Realm", where have they seen the city in the world, and where have they seen such many people and such a lively scene.
That white snow is just enough, with his cultivation in the middle of the liquid transformation period, his heart is calm and his concentration is amazing.
Even if I haven't seen such a noisy and lively human scene, I can still deal with it calmly.
The little gray child's childlike nature is innocent, but his expression is very different.
I saw a look of surprise on his face, his small mouth opened into an "O" shape, and he kept looking around, full of curiosity about all people, things, and things.
However, it is timid by nature, although it looks around curiously, a pair of small hands tightly grasp the hands of Bai Xue and the Night Maiden, and refuse to let go for a moment.
Moreover, shuttling through the streets with so many pedestrians, a look of horror flashed in the little gray eyes from time to time.
When Shen Yun saw Xiao Ash's expression, the corners of his mouth twitched again, and he was secretly amused.
"Alas, it's only a demon beast in the late stage of the Spirit Period, and these are just mortals, is it necessary to be afraid of this...... Looking at its current performance, I really don't know how many years and months it will take to really grow up......"
Although Shen Yun had such a thought in his heart, he didn't have any blame for Xiao Ash, let alone contempt for Xiao Ash because he was timid.
It's just that because of this little ancestor, he was beaten by that Bai Xue several times, which made Shen Yun a little depressed.
And since entering "Yizhou City", the Night Girl and Bai Xue have become the focus of attention of passers-by.
These ordinary people, where have they seen such a fairy-like stunning face and exquisite figure on weekdays.
Anyone who has seen the Night Girl and Bai Xue walking together, regardless of men, women and children, all stood on the spot, staring at the two of them non-stop, quite like Qin Luo's posture in "Mo Shang Sang".
Seeing this, the night girl frowned slightly, and naturally felt displeased.
The white snow was even more furious, and almost burst out against these ordinary people.
Shen Yun hung far behind the two, he had expected this, but he also felt helpless.
After all, how can the faces of the Night Maiden and Bai Xue be comparable to mortal women?
I'm afraid that the young lady of the city lord's mansion will not be able to defeat the battle in front of me.
Before Shen Yun entered the city, he warned the two of them, and changed their faces first, but where was Bai Xue willing to listen to him.
Now, the two of them feel a headache.
Seeing this, Shen Yun sighed in his heart, led the two into a "Thousand Clothes Workshop", bought a wide black cloak for each of them, draped it on their bodies, and covered their faces with cloaks and hats, which made the two not so eye-catching.
It's just that although the cloak is wide, it can't hide the tall and delicate figures of the two, which still makes many passers-by look sideways.
However, even so, the situation has improved a lot.
After coming out of the "Thousand Clothes Workshop", because Shen Yun was not sad about these brocade clothes, he was still in the same gray clothes as before, Xiao Gray didn't like these human clothes, and he was still surrounded by animal skins, and neither of them changed their coats.
However, this time when he went home to visit Uncle Li, Aunt Li, and Sister Yan'er, Shen Yun naturally chose some fabrics that didn't look fancy, but the material was of the highest quality, wrapped them into a small bag, and put them in the storage bag.
After a while, it was getting dark.
At this time, the lights are on, and "Yizhou City" is really lively.
Thousands of households hang colorful lights in front of their doors, and the streets are crowded with pedestrians, bustling and noisy.
The vendors on both sides of the street sell all kinds of snacks, lanterns, ornaments, masks and other things.
There are also tricksters, monkeys, stage singers, and lion dancers...... , etc., etc., all kinds of entertainment programs, passers-by who watched it were very interested and applauded.
The Night Girl and Bai Xue, led Xiao Ash, turned most of the "Yizhou City" and bought a lot of strange accessories.
The little gray was holding a colorful lantern in his left hand, an unknown snack in his right hand, and a "rabbit" mask on his face, with an excited look on his face, but he didn't have the original scared look.
It's just that after walking around for two or three hours and seeing more of such a prosperous scene, the interest of the four of them is naturally not as high as it was at the beginning.
Moreover, the four of them gradually felt tired, so they found a secluded "West Crane Tower" to rest.
At this moment, Shen Yun, along with the Night Girl, Bai Xue, and Xiao Gray, sat around a box table near the window, looking at a table of wine and food, but they didn't move their chopsticks.
First, the four of them were a little tired, and it was difficult to swallow for a while.
Second, these mortal wine and food, although the workmanship is meticulous, the color and fragrance are complete, but after all, they are not as good as spiritual products, but they are not as good as roadside snacks, which can stimulate the appetite of several people.
Besides, the little gray had already eaten enough, and at this moment he fell into Bai Xue's arms, drowsy, and he would not be interested in the wine and food on the table.
"I've been wandering around like this for two or three hours, but you're quite determined, and you don't rush. Could it be that you are close to your hometown, aren't you in a hurry?" The Night Girl raised her head slightly, looked at the brightly lit bustling city outside the window, and asked lightly.
When Bai Xue heard this, she didn't look up, still hugging Xiao Ash in her arms.
It's just that, for some reason, looking at his eyes, there is a trace of inexplicable nervousness and worry because of the words of the night girl.
And Shen Yun naturally knew that the night girl was talking to herself, but she was silent for a while and did not reply immediately.
After a long while, I saw him gently pick up the wine jug and fill it with a glass of wine, and then he spoke leisurely.
"Night girl, you and I have known each other once, and we have the same heart. There is no need to say anything more. Now that it coincides with the 'Lantern Festival', I naturally don't want to lose my interest, and I also want to swim with you as a last memory. ”
The night girl listened to Shen Yun's words, and although her face was silent, her heart couldn't help but tremble.
And Bai Xue also heard Shen Yun's words, and her face changed slightly, but she was silent and didn't make a sound.
Outside the window, the voices of people are getting louder and louder.
Inside the house, there is gradually a faint loneliness and coldness, and even the bright moonlight shining into the house is like frost, bleak and sad.
After a long while, the Night Maiden gently opened her lips and spoke softly.
"Have you thought about it, mortal family affection is really so important, even that you are willing to give up the path of cultivating immortals?"
When Shen Yun heard this, he was silent for a while, he glanced at the beautiful side face of the night girl, lowered his head again, picked up the wine glass in front of him, drank it all, suddenly grinned, and said slowly.
