The sound of firecrackers bids farewell to the old year, on the first day of the new year, the door of the chicken cage temple is crowded, this is the temple fair of the chicken cage temple. It is impossible to verify when the tradition of temple fairs began, but generally large temples will hold temple fairs on special festivals, such as the Mid-Autumn Festival, for example, the second dragon raising its head in February, or the current New Year's season. Among them, especially the temple fair in the first month of the year, the scale is grand. At that time, there were no television, computers, and the Internet and other entertainment facilities, and the temple fair could be regarded as the biggest entertainment activity, which was held from the first day of the first month to the fifteenth day of the first month. Although the weather is cold, the people who visit the temple fair do not feel it at all.

Liangguo Gong Lanyu has already gone to the court. Although it was the first day of the new year, during the Hongwu period, the ministers could only take a holiday on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the winter solstice, and the birthday of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, and did not need to go to the court. Although Lan Yu went to the court, the little boy Lan Chun didn't use it. Last night's commotion didn't bother him. The adults were a little tired, but he got up early in the morning. The temple fair in the first month of the year has always been the day he looks forward to the most every year. Usually strict management, do not let him go out on the street, but generally on the first day of the first month will let him go out for a walk, although a little dangerous, but Mrs. Mu will generally send him more family generals to accompany him. You don't have to worry too much about safety.

Xiao Lanchun walked in the bazaar of the temple fair, his interest was high, and he was jumping and jumping when he walked. I'll look here and there. The generals behind him were also very busy. It's been almost a day of strolling outside, but Lan Chun is still in high spirits, and he doesn't feel tired at all.

"Little grandfather," Xu Ruyi said, "It's not early, it's time to go back." ”

"I don't!" Lan Chunzhi shook his head, "My mother said, let me play casually today, I have the most freedom every day of the year, I don't want to go back." ”

It's a bit of a shame to say this, although he usually doesn't let him go out of the house easily, but he will still take him out to play every once in a while.

Looking at the sky, it was already nine o'clock in the evening (nine o'clock in the evening), Xu Ruyi said, "The little grandfather is not tired, we are also a little tired, why don't we find a tea stall and sit for a while." ”

"Yes. It's okay" Lan Chun looked at the entourage behind him, all wrapped in big bags and small bags, holding all kinds of toys he bought, with a tired face, and nodded as well. As long as he doesn't go back, he doesn't care.

It's already dark, but the temple fair is still brightly lit and prosperous. Lan Chun and Xu Ruyi and their entourage sat and ate wontons at a wonton shop not far from the gate of Jilong Temple, surrounded by various stalls juggling.

Xu Ruyi squinted his eyes and looked around for a while, and found his target. The fat man Yun Zheng squatting in the corner not far from the gate of the Jilong Temple. It looked like Yun Zheng had been waiting for a long time, and his face was a little tired. Xu Ruyi saw Yun Zheng, and Yun Zheng also saw him, nodded, and did not step forward to talk. Xu Ruyi was still followed by the generals, and there were many people, so it was inconvenient to contact Yun Zheng, so he had to wait a little longer.

"I want to go to the thatched house," Lan Chun said to Xu Ruyi.

"Eh" Xu Ruyi paused, "Okay then"

"I'll go to the temple with the young master for convenience, and I'll be back immediately" Xu Ruyi turned around and said hello to his entourage.

pulled Lan Chun through the crowd and walked into the gate of the temple, and Yun Zheng also quietly followed.

Send Lan Chun to the thatched toilet in the remote part of the temple, and listen to the voice inside, it seems to be a large one. Xu Ruyi shook his head and smiled.

Behind "father-in-law" Xu Ruyi, Yun Zheng's voice sounded.

"Waiting a long time?"

"I'll be there at midnight," that is, from three to five o'clock in the morning. Yun Zheng's voice was very flat, and he didn't complain, just answered his question.

"I have a task for you. ”

"Father-in-law, please speak"

"Inside is Lan Chun, the little son of Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo"

"I know"

"En" Xu Ruyi nodded, "You kidnap it in a while, take it to the rotten alley and hide it, don't let anyone know, can you do it?"

"Yes" Yun Zheng hesitated a little, but finally nodded in agreement.

"Ahh

"What's going on?" Xu Ruyi hurriedly rushed in, just in time to see two burly men climbing over the wall. Both of them were dressed in black and masked, and the little young master Lan Chun was sandwiched under the arm of one of them.

"Chase!" With a low shout, Xu Ruyi and Yun Zheng also hurriedly climbed over the wall to follow.

It can be seen that the two masked thieves have also been prepared, outside the courtyard wall, seeing Xu Ruyi and Yun Zheng following, the black-clothed man with Lan Chun said to his accomplices, "You stop them" and ran away after speaking.

The person who was left behind did not hesitate, turned around to meet Xu Ruyi at the front, and slapped him.

"Hmph" Xu Ruyi snorted coldly, picked up the true qi of Tiangang Tongzigong's body protection, and crashed directly into the other party.

There was a muffled "bang", and the enemy was knocked to the side, his face was full of surprise, he didn't expect a teenager to have such kung fu at all.

"You stop him, I'll chase the little grandfather!" Xu Ruyi shouted at Yun Zheng, and regardless of the man in black who was knocked away by himself, his body chased straight in the direction of Lan Chun, leaving only Yun Zheng and the man in black in place.

"You don't have anything to do," Xu Ruyi was secretly anxious.

He decided to let Yun Zheng kidnap Lan Chun for his safety, if Zhu Yuanzhang did something to Lan Yu in the future, he could still have a descendant. But now that there was an accident, I don't know who it was, and for what purpose I attacked Lan Chun first, Xu Ruyi was really anxious.

Hearing Xu Ruyi's command, Yun Zheng didn't say a word, pulled out the iron sword at his waist and greeted him. The man in black in front of him dropped an iron chain from his waist and did not flinch, and in the night, the two fought together.

Yun Zheng's swordsmanship was extremely fast, his body was strange, and the tip of the sword did not leave the heart and throat of the man in black. On the other hand, the man in black danced the iron chain with both hands to protect his whole body, and as long as he had the opportunity, he would smash Yun Zheng's head hard, even if he died together, he did not hesitate to fight with his life, and the fight fell into anxiety for a while.

"Ahh

Although the thatched house is built in a remote area, outside the wall is the back alley of the temple, although it is a little far away from the temple fair, a little deserted, but after all, there are many people who go out tonight, and they are still noticed.

"Not good!" The hearts of the two sank, if they attracted the soldiers who patrolled the night, it would be difficult for them to get out.

Yun Zheng made a false move, took three steps back, and said in a deep voice, "Change places!"

The "good" strong man was not verbose, turned around and strode away in the direction where his previous companion had left, and Yun Zheng also put away his sword and followed behind. In an instant, it disappeared into the night.
