Chapter 61 Putting Lanterns

The three of them went out only to find that the night of Yelang was so prosperous and lively, it was even more lively than the central part of the mainland, don't look at these streets, there are few pedestrians on the street during the day, but this night is a different scene, the rows of pedestrians on the street, whether men or women, are all new at this time, and the men's 'well-dressed' women are dressed up one by one, which stimulates the eyes of Lin Sheng and others.

"Look over there, what are those bright spots floating in the air?" Ghost Xiao asked excitedly, pointing to a few bright spots in the distance, as if he was a dirt bun entering the city.

"Oh, that, that's the lantern, this is the custom of the Miao territory, every time the festival is a young boy and girl will come to this river to put lanterns, you see the river, that is the largest river in the whole continent, the ancient legend that this river is thousands of years ago an ancestral dragon died incarnate, the river water is mixed yellow all the year round, the locals call it the Yellow River, this river flows through most of the fairy continent and then flows to the west with this direction. Liu Pojun tirelessly explained some ancient legends for Lin Sheng and Ghost Smile, which made Lin Sheng and Ghost Smile yearn for a while, somehow, Lin Sheng suddenly felt that the yellow river in front of him seemed to be seen somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Do you want lanterns?" Lin Sheng was thinking about where he had seen this yellow river, and a woman over half a hundred years old carried a large string of small lanterns in front of the three of them and asked cautiously.

"Thanks, no need, we're just here to see. Liu Pojun waved his hand disappreciably and refused.

"Buy a few and write your beloved's name on them, and maybe she'll see it." The old woman said unwillingly, this festival was not the season for lanterns, but almost half of the residents of this Yelang country are outsiders, so no one cares about the specific time, no matter what time someone will come here to put lanterns, so this lantern can be seen here all year round, as if it has become a major attraction here.

"Buy a few, it's still early anyway, we can play, just follow the local customs and feel the customs of this Miaojiang." Lin Sheng persuaded and at the same time motioned to the ghost smile to pay the money, at this time, the ghost smile has money on him, although Lin Sheng also has it, but most of them are money tickets, which usually can't be spent on buying things. When the ghost smiled and saw that Lin Sheng had spoken, he naturally stopped saying anything and began to pay for it.

Seeing that Lin Sheng was about to pay for it, the old woman was overjoyed, and hurriedly put the lanterns on the ground for Lin Sheng to choose, Lin Sheng picked out three lotus-shaped lanterns and asked:

"Auntie, how did you sell this lantern?"

"Two lanterns and one spirit coin. The old woman replied while lighting Lin Sheng's lanterns.

"So cheap, let's get two each. Lin Sheng picked it up, and Ghost Xiao handed three spirit coins to the old woman, and picked four together with Liu Pojun.

"Come on, young man, this lady will give it to you. The old woman carried a small and delicate lantern from behind her and handed it to Lin Sheng.

Lin Sheng raised his head and saw that this lantern was obviously much better than the two he had selected just now, both in terms of workmanship and the lines on it.

"What's so embarrassing about this? Auntie, I'm useless!" Although Lin Sheng liked this lantern very much, he didn't accept it easily.

"It's okay, this is the rule of fools, whoever is the first to buy a lantern every day will give one, this is made by my daughter of Diffuse, one a day, it has always been like this. The old woman smiled and said with great sincerity.

"You're welcome, thank you, auntie. Lin Sheng took the lantern, thanked the old woman and began to look at the lantern seriously, Lin Sheng found the extraordinaryness of this lantern, the materials of this production are different from the lantern that was sold, the lantern sold just now is all made of paper, this lantern is completely made of orange peel, several complete orange peels are connected to form the shape of a chrysanthemum, and then painted a picture of a lady on it, the painting is very vivid, almost about to come to life, it is really hard to imagine that this is from the hand of a blind girl.

"Come and write your blessing!" The woman seemed to be surprised by Lin Sheng's surprise, and handed the pen to Lin Sheng.

Lin Sheng took the pen and wrote slowly on it, and after a while, the three lanterns were written with blessings, one was written about Duan Xin, one was written to pray for his parents, and the remaining one was written with the words of blessing to the blind girl who had not seen it, for the blind girl who had not seen it, Lin Sheng was very admirable, and secretly said that she must be a clever woman, so he wrote the words of blessing her, and then solemnly put the three lanterns into the water, so that they slowly drifted into the distance with the water waves......

Hand the pen to the ghost smile, the ghost laughs at the words written by this guy is really ugly, and the crooked ones are no different from those of the chicken paws, Liu Pojun looks a lot better, and the handwriting is vigorous and powerful.

Ghost Smile didn't have the leisure to do this, but looking at Lin Sheng's solemn face, he also learned to put those lanterns into the water in a serious way, and actually said something with his hands together, anyway, Lin Sheng and Liu Pojun didn't understand a word. But the old woman looked at the ghost in surprise and smiled and asked:

"Big brother, do you know Miao language?"

"Miao language?" Lin Sheng and Liu Pojun were stunned for a moment, it turned out that the few bird words just now were Miao language, and they really didn't see that this guy usually didn't show that he would do this.

"Where do I know what Miao language, I used to hear a friend say it, and I didn't know what it meant, so I wrote it down, and then I suddenly remembered him, so I couldn't help but muttered a few words......" Ghost smiled embarrassedly and touched his head and said.

"Hey, by the way, Auntie thinks you should know Miao language, what do those words mean?" Ghost Xiao suddenly remembered something and asked.

"I do understand this, but I wondered what you mean by that. I see...... "The old woman said with a smile on her face.

"What do those words mean?" Lin Sheng also asked playfully at this time.

"It's that I'm hungry and I want to eat. ”

"Ahh

Lin Sheng and Liu Pojun were holding their stomachs and laughing so much that they were almost out of breath. Even the old woman couldn't help but laugh a few times.

"Haha, I'm laughing to death, I said ghost laugh, didn't you just eat a big meal? Why are you hungry after walking a few steps!"

"That's it, let's just go back to the inn and ask the shopkeeper to cook something for you to eat!" Lin Sheng also joked with a smile, and the two sang a double reed in harmony, leaving a depressed ghost smile standing stupidly.
