Chapter Ninety-Nine: Fireworks Are Beautiful

Night had fallen, but there was not much darkness around, and patches of silver-white snow were spread on the ground, blocking the white moonlight from slipping away.

Yu Dao stood by the side door of Jiangfu, with his hands behind his back, looking down at his toes. His face was wrapped in white gas, which was caused by the increasing cold at night, causing the exhaled breath to condense into a mist.

He had been waiting for a quarter of an hour, and there was no one around him, but he didn't feel it long, but felt that time passed quickly. Outside the door, crowds of people have poured out of the big houses, and they gather along the avenue to the lively and prosperous place of Jiangzhou City.

Today is the Lantern Festival, a festival to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new in this world. It is also a time for people to celebrate, men and women to be together, and families to reunite.

Suddenly, Yu Dao remembered what Jiang Qiongju had said. At the same time, he came to the door to-day, and he did not see anyone except the old servant and a few inferior servants.

It turned out that she was really like him, and she had to live alone.

Thinking of this, the taste in Yu Dao's heart was even more inexplicable. It is false to say that "not impressed" and "not impressed" is also false.

"That's it. Yu Dao exhaled, and the white mist sprayed out in the cold night, "This matter will be discussed tomorrow, and it is all up to her today." ”

Rustling, footsteps sounded behind him. The voice is soft and careful, as if walking on tiptoe. Yu Dao looked up at the round moon in the sky, pretending not to know.

A small hand suddenly rested on his shoulder, and he spat on his neck.

Yu Dao's body froze.

"Brother Yu. Timid words came, but there was an irrepressible smile in the voice. Yu Dao exhaled softly, then turned around.

Yu Dao's body suddenly froze, and he couldn't take his eyes off it for a long time. This time it's not a pretence.

"Brother Yu?" someone stood in front of him, fingers grabbing the cuffs of his coat, biting his mouth to look at him.

This person was wearing a light-colored brocade robe, which was cut into a Taoist robe, and three cold plums were embroidered between the plackets. Her chest is slightly full, her body is slender, and she is as tall as Yu Dao, and if she stands on tiptoe, she can be a little taller than Yu Dao.

Yu Dao's eyes were in a trance for a while.

Jiang Qiongju's forehead was pasted with yellow flowers, her hair was knotted and combed, her nose was slightly upturned, and her small mouth was bitten slightly, as if she had bitten out blood. But on closer inspection, it turned out that it was not blood, but rouge.

Today's Jiang Qiongju actually abandoned men's clothes and turned to women's clothes.

"Why, like this?" Yu Dao swallowed his throat and came back to his senses after a while.

When Jiang Qiongju heard this, her cheeks were slightly crimson, this red color made people's hearts move. Her fingers were tucked into her sleeves, grasping the cuffs of her shirt, her arms raised slightly, and she turned slightly under Yu Dao's gaze.

"Brother Yu doesn't like it?" smiled as promised.

Yu Dao's eyes fell on her hair, and found that although she was wearing women's clothes, she still wore a silver crown on her hair, which made her heroic spirit faint, but there was still a point.

Jiang Qiongju helped the silver crown on his head in time, and his cheeks were slightly red. Yu Dao's lips pursed, and he couldn't speak, but said, "Let's go." ”

"Hmm. Jiang Qiongju responded, ran out of the mansion, and then stood in front of him with his hands behind his back, waiting for him. Yu Dao glanced up and walked with his head down.

Lights were placed on the side of the streets, reflecting on both sides, so that the entire city of Jiangzhou was lit.

When the two came to the prosperous place, their ears were immediately drowned out by joy and words. As a last resort, the two walked very closely, almost leaning together.

There were people coming and going, and tonight was different from the past, and many women were dressed up, or traveling together, but with their servants. The two men and women no longer have any scruples, tonight should have been their night.

Jiang Qiongju leaned on Yu Dao's side, looking around, her eyes were shining, reflecting the lights.

"Fuji, shall we go to the Judge Temple?"

"Judge Temple?" Yu Dao's footsteps stopped slightly. Jiang Qiongju didn't wait for him to answer, so he grabbed his sleeve and pulled him to the side.

"There will be lanterns and fireworks tonight, and it is the most suitable thing to watch at the Judge's Temple. ”

The two of them ran all the way to a grand temple, and when they were more than 100 meters away from the temple, they had to stop, because there were so many people around.

The temple is located in the center of the four streets, on the high ground, and clusters of lights hang on the temple, as if condensed by firelight. The four streets surrounding the temple are also lit with lanterns, and the scenery is as prosperous as possible.

Yu Dao saw the scene around him, and his heart was touched. In his previous life, he had never seen such a grand lantern show.

The nearby river fluctuates, the water reflects the moon, and it is lit with small lantern boats, flowing like the Milky Way.

There are people who blow candy, draw candy paintings, and write couplets on both sides of the street to entertain the guests who come forward. The two stood side by side, looking around at the beautiful scenery around them, and suddenly felt that the world was prosperous.

The people passing by saw that they were all dressed in Taoist robes, with good looks and similar ages, and it was appropriate to describe them as jade girls and golden boys, and they all walked by with a smile.

"No-two, no-two, a little closer. Jiang Qiongju said.

Yu Dao heard it, thought about it, and then moved his steps lightly, getting closer. But Jiang Qiongju suddenly moved and pulled him towards the direction of the big temple.

"It's better there. Jiang Qiongju pointed to the big temple.

Hearing her voice, Yu Dao's cheeks were slightly red, and he coughed lightly and said, "Why is this temple called the Judge Temple, not the City God Temple?"

"This temple was originally the temple of judges, and it was changed to a temple of judges after the prince welcomed back a god from the mountains. ”

"Welcome God?" Hearing this, Yu Dao was slightly surprised.

"Jiangzhou Taishou has a son, mild-mannered, good at reading, corporal etiquette, and does not like to be quiet, does not love dogs and horses, is praised by everyone, so he was established as a son early. ”

"The wife he married is virtuous but not colorful, and she is the ugly girl who is famous in Jiangzhou City. ”

Seeing that Yu Dao didn't understand, Jiang Qiongju explained carefully: "But this person has a drawback, that is, his temperament is too weak, he can't even bear to kill chickens, he eats vegetarian all year round, and he is indecisive, he is by no means the king of troubled times, and he is criticized by the ministers." ”

Hearing this, Yu Daowei nodded. Shu is now in a boiling time, if the lord is too weak, it is definitely not a good wood for the courtiers.

"A few months ago, the prince and the noble son of the city went to the mountain to party, and because they were drinking heartily, they even made a gambling contract and went out of the mountain with a god from the mountain. ”

Since then, the son of the world has reversed his temperament, his weakness has disappeared, and his reputation has increased, and he has been praised by the whole city. It is rumored that this god apparition, so the City God Temple was changed to the Judge Temple, and the incense was vigorous, and this god was called the 'Judge'. ”

Jiang Qiongju talked about the situation of the prince of Jiangzhou in detail, obviously very understanding, as if she was reciting the case, and at the same time her eyes narrowed slightly.

When Yu Dao heard this, he frowned and thought: "The gods are obviously spiritual, isn't it a monk who is pretending to be a god and stealing from Jiangzhou......"

This world is a prosperous era of immortals, and all the gods and miracles in the world are all tricks.

There was once a group of mortals who pretended to be gods and rebelled in Yintian, and half of the country was destroyed in three or five years. It's a pity that after ascending to the king and becoming the emperor, he was lost, thinking that there were really gods in the world, and repeatedly smashed the Taoist courtyard, framed the monks, and refused the Zhao'an of the great sect.

"It's going to start, it's going to start!" Jiang Qiongju grabbed Yu Dao and jumped up suddenly.

There was a loud roar, and I saw a little firelight rising in the night sky, rushing into the black sky. Boom! The sky suddenly brightened.

The fireworks began.

The two stood side by side, looking up at the sky. There was a commotion all around, but all the sounds were drowned out by the sound of fireworks exploding.

A line of fire sprang up from the ground, rose to the sky, and then exploded, releasing fireworks one after another, some golden, some bright yellow, some red, some blue and green, flickering all over the sky, forming a heavenly man in the world.

The glow of the fireworks was bright, and the ground shone with a silver light. Yu Dao looked at the fireworks in the sky, only to feel that the firelight was bright, like a day, and it was slightly dazzling.

The admiration was endless, and countless people looked up at the beautiful scene in the world.

Yu Dao was slightly in a trance, he was taken to see the fireworks in his previous life, and it was as noisy and noisy as now. I still remember that he was leaning against them, being guarded, and chewing on the fruit in his mouth...... Yu Dao suddenly felt a slight warmth on his cheeks, and the warmth disappeared.

The prosperity fell, the fireworks gradually went out, leaving only the last fireworks slowly withering in the air, and the remaining streamer was fading.

Yu Dao lowered his head and saw a person standing beside him. The other party bit his lip tightly, and when he saw him looking over, his nose trembled slightly.

Jiang Qiongju looked up at the sky and said softly:

"Fireworks are so beautiful......"

After speaking, she forcibly raised her eyes to look at Yu Dao, her face was flushed, her eyes were full of anticipation and nervousness, her fingers were twisted together, she wanted to reach out but didn't dare to reach out.

Yu Dao was silent and met her gaze.

One breath passes, two breaths passes...... Three breaths...... The night sky is completely dark, and all the fireworks are cold.

Jiang Qiongju's cheeks were pale, her fingers were clenched, her breathing was frozen, and she couldn't speak. Just when her eyes were about to dim completely, a word belated:

"Beautiful. ”

Jiang Qiongju's eyes trembled fiercely, and a flush rose from her neck and blew on her cheeks. A cold hand also reached over and grabbed the finger.

Slightly stunned, a smile and blooming, like a rainbow, brilliant than fireworks in the world.
