In the eyes of human beings, August 15 is a very special day of the year, even compared to the New Year's New Year.

On this day, people will put down all their work, bathe, groom, and tie the silk. Literati like to chant poems, or praise the beauty of the bright moon, or lament the grandeur of the festival.

In the past few days, the three of them have become familiar with each other, and they have a general understanding of Pu Neng: in general, he is a good person! But after all, there is some distance, maybe it is an age gap, or a difference in experience.

"Brother Bulong, you got up so early. Alan still felt that the name Pu Neng was a little unfamiliar, so he only called him Brother Bu Long.

"Yes, Alain, you don't know, we monks have to get up early every day and do all kinds of homework. ”

"Alan, Brother Zhou, it's early!" Tu Fengnian read a little late last night, and his eyebrows and eyes were slightly dark.

The three of them walked downstairs as they spoke, bought breakfast first, and then noticed the flow of people far better than in previous days.

The bustling crowd was like a mighty river, rolling the three of them around, and finally arrived at the cold point of the long street, but there was still an endless stream of customers in the surrounding shops.

The three of them found a braised chicken shop and rested for a while. Every household had already purchased all kinds of food a few days ago, so there were only a few passers-by in the store.

The three of them walked into the store, the rich aroma wafted in the air, hooking people's appetites, Alan and Tu Fengnian were a little greedy, but they cared about Pu Neng, and did not offer to buy some to eat.

Pu Neng's eyes were like torches, he saw the care of the two, smiled, and said: "You two don't have to care about me, if you want to eat, why don't I come to treat you, speaking of which, the little monk is a few years older than you, even if you are the eldest brother, you should be invited to eat." ”

The two thanked them first, and then found the shopkeeper and bought half a braised chicken, which cost 30 yuan. Pu Neng handed over the copper coin prepared in his sleeve, and the shopkeeper saw that the copper coin was engraved with the words "Jingchu Nanwen", and his attitude was a little respectful, but there was not much flattery.

Jingchu is the name of the year, Nanwen refers to the king of the South China Sea, with the emperor of the big lance on the head, the king of Nanwen does not dare to be called the emperor, can only be called the king.

And the copper coins that can be engraved with the king's name can only come from Xilu City, that is, the royal capital of the South China Sea. This shows that the monk in front of him is from Xilu City. But he is just an ordinary person, unlike Tu Fengnian who has read so many books, and he doesn't know how powerful Leiyin Temple is, he is just a businessman who sells braised chicken, he has been alive, old, sick and dead here in this life, Xilu City hundreds of miles away has nothing to do with him, and Leiyin Temple has nothing to do with him.

The shopkeeper noticed that a girl suddenly appeared behind the three of them, her hair was a little messy, but her face was beautiful, she looked like a beauty, and she was carrying a long box behind her back, so she couldn't tell what was inside.

It's a pity that she drooled at the braised chicken in Alain's hand, and destroyed the beauty, in fact, he had seen this girl, not long ago she was wandering on the long street, whenever she passed by her shop, she was stunned, looking at his braised chicken drooling, until the saliva was about to flow to the chin, sucked a sound, and walked away quickly.

What can Alan do, he turned his head and saw a sister looking at the braised chicken in his hand stupidly, and even saliva flowed out, thinking to himself, should I give it? or give it? or ...... What to give?

Alan looked at the two brothers for help, who knew that neither of them looked at him, Tu Fengnian looked up at the sky, and Zhou Bulong counted the prayer beads, over and over again.

Alain stubbornly said, "This sister, is there something wrong with you looking at me like this?"

The girl came back to her senses, first sucked her saliva, and then looked at him with a hint of anticipation in her eyes...... Alain looked at the two brothers again, not thinking that they had already walked out the door......

In desperation, Alan had to open the oil paper, tear off a piece of meat, and just put it in the girl's mouth, I saw her take the chicken with a "hmm", chew it slightly, and show a happy look on her face, reminiscing about it, and looking at Alan more vigorously.

Alan had to look at the two cowards with resentment, turned around and bought another braised chicken, which cost fifty yuan. The girl's face was full of surprise and gratitude, but Alain also saw some appreciative looks—you little brother, you are quite discerning!

Alain then exited the shop, glanced at the two of them again, and headed out into the crowd. He wanted to feel the warmth of the world, but before he had taken a few steps, he stiffened and turned his head to look at the sister who was following him while eating chicken...... The two cowards followed behind and whispered, not daring to disturb the girl.

Tu Fengnian didn't talk to the girl much, and Deng Chi was familiar with him for several days before talking to him. And Zhou Bulong lived a difficult life in his childhood, and his personality was a little withdrawn, and then he entered Buddhism, so he had less contact with women, and naturally he didn't dare to talk to strange women.

"Look at Alain, people aren't afraid at all. ”

"No, let me tell you, Alain hooked up with a female elf the year before last, oh, it's a half-elf. ”

"Huh, horrible, horrible!"

Alan vaguely heard the whispering between the two, and looked at the two old men gossiping like an aunt in the vegetable market, Rao is a temperament like him, and he couldn't help but burst out.

But it's the priority to deal with this sister first. "This sister, didn't you get food, and what are you doing with me?"

I only heard her say vaguely: "Little brother, my teacher told me that you have to be a man to be grateful, and if you give me delicious food, I must repay you, say, what do you want? “

Sister, you can't even afford a chicken, what can you come up with? Alan was a little helpless, but he could only say patiently: "No need sister, you are busy with yours, I don't need anything." “

But the girl didn't react, but just followed him, enjoying her food. What else could Alain do, he had to continue shopping.

Time flies, night lights hang all over the treetops, and the river at the end of the street is like a bronze mirror, reflecting the smiling faces of passers-by. The four of them walked out of a teahouse, their expressions different:

Alan looked helpless and bitter, Tu Fengnian had some admiration in his eyes, Zhou Bulong looked envious and even admired, and the girl looked happy, obviously full......

The four of them followed the flow of people, watching the scene of a thousand lights, and there were various stalls, some selling masks, some selling sugar paintings, and some specially allowing guests to play games, guessing riddles, blowing candles, etc.

In the open space farther away, there are many children kicking and juju, playing a game of shooting stars and catching the moon. In some small teahouses, acquaintances of literati held tea parties and recited poems, which was not coquettish.

Alain couldn't help but think of Ace, and decided that he would definitely spend the Qingqiu Festival with her in the future, take her to see these beautiful night scenes, and eat these delicious things.

Tonight, the moon is bright, and I don't know whose family Qiu Si belongs to. Tonight is the day of the reunion of a hundred families, and I don't know how many people look at the bright moon, but they miss the beloved in their hearts.
