Starting from helping someone rob a wedding, he was forced to hide in the Sunset Sect

A gentle breeze blew, and another month passed.

Because Duan Yandong and Wang Xichun both have jobs, their quality of life has been significantly improved.

The meals are no longer mostly vegetarian like they were a month ago, now there are meat dishes and soup at every meal.

Ever since Wang Xichun moved into Duan Yandong's house, he has never gone out at night to look for medicinal herbs.

At first, it was because he was worried that there was a patient at home and that Wang Xichun’s wound might worsen when he was not at home.

Also, considering that Wang Xichun had just lost her family, he felt it was very important to spend more time with her, and that physical and mental health was important.

After Wang Xichun was able to get out of bed and move around, he never went out at night. Only he knew the reason.

"Why don't you roll the dice?" Wang Xichun asked.

"You are almost at the finish line, but I haven't even left the house yet. I think my luck is a bit bad." Duan Yandong said.

The two were playing flying chess, an entertainment game introduced by the government fifty years ago. Its simple rules and interesting gameplay made it popular among ordinary people.

The game is usually played between two or more players on a specially made board or piece of paper.

There is a circular track on the chessboard with different colored squares on it, representing different flight paths.

Each player controls a group of pawns, usually four, which are initially positioned at a take-off point.

Players roll the dice to determine the number of steps each move takes, and then move the piece the corresponding number of spaces.

The goal is to make the pieces go in a circle along the circular path, and the player who gets all the pieces to the end first wins.

Only after rolling six points can a chess piece be launched from the base to the take-off point, and then the dice are rolled again to determine the number of steps the chess piece has taken forward. This is called take-off.

Of course, this game has special treatment for players with good luck.

During the game, the player who rolls six points can continue to roll the dice until the number displayed is not six points or the game ends. This is called a continuous roll bonus.

When a chess piece moves to a square, if an enemy piece has stopped there, you can drive the enemy piece back to the base. This is called a collision.

When a chess piece moves on the map, if it stops at a square of the same color as its own, it can jump to the next square of the same color in front of it. This is called a jump.

Very simple, right?

"You must have gotten a six this time!" Wang Xichun said with a smile, "It's impossible for people to be unlucky all the time."

Duan Yandong shook the dice three more times, but failed to get six. He suddenly didn't want to continue playing.

Wang Xichun bought this flying chess today when he came back from the teahouse. He had only heard of this kind of game before. Many people have been playing it since they were children.

Wang Xichun had never played it before. After the two of them looked at the rules, they started their first game of flying chess.

The girl smiled and picked up a blue chess piece and placed it at the take-off point. The blue chess piece was Duan Yandong's chess piece.

"This way you don't have to shake and set off at six. It's a little privilege for you."

The two played for a while. Wang Xichun was lucky. When her four chess pieces reached the finish line, Duan Yandong only had one chess piece.

There was another reason why Duan Yandong lost so badly, that was Wang Xichun ate one of his chess pieces and sent it back to the take-off point.

Duan Yandong stood up, walked to a box, squatted down and started searching in the box.

"Are you going out to deliver the baby?" Wang Xichun asked.

She had never seen Duan Yandong go out at night, but only saw him return home at night, and now it was already dark.

"No, I'm looking for a piece of clothing." Duan Yandong replied.

He took out a snow-white jumpsuit from the box. It was fresh and elegant, giving people a pure feeling.

It is made of silk, soft and comfortable, with a fresh black hair wrapped around the waist.

Wang Xichun's gaze rested on a snow-white jumpsuit, and her eyes were faintly flashing.

"This dress is for you. Girls in Baizhu County always wear nice clothes before going to the temple fair. The clothes I bought for you before are not suitable."

Duan Yandong put the clothes in her hands and continued, "Baizhu County has two temple fairs a year. I have never gone out with you at night. Do you want to go to the temple fair?"

Wang Xichun has been in Baizhu County for some time. Recently, when he was working in a teahouse, he heard some customers talking about the temple fair.

Unexpectedly, Duan Yandong would buy her a new dress and invite her to the temple fair.

The corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, with a hint of sweetness.

"Okay! Wait for me to change my clothes, and then we can go to the temple fair together."

The two arrived at the temple fair, and Wang Xichun held Duan Yandong's clothes tightly. She had never been to the temple fair in the county, and there had never been such an activity in the village before.

Duan Yandong had come here once before with the old doctor, but that was to treat an unconscious person, not for fun.

This was the first time he came to the temple fair with a girl.

He had inquired about the contents of the temple fair in advance, and the most popular ones were scooping up goldfish, releasing river lanterns and the final fireworks.

The two came to a goldfish scooping stall.

The stall owner smiled and said, "You two are a perfect match. Do you want to try catching goldfish?"

He was not making this up, the two people in front of him were indeed good-looking.

"One penny for a small net. You can take the goldfish you catch or exchange them for small items."

Wang Xichun took out ten coins, handed them to the stall owner and said, "We want ten small nets."

The stall owner took out ten small nets and two bottles of water and gave them to the two men.

Wang Xichun looked at these small nets with curiosity. She had never used such small nets to catch goldfish before.

"You just need to put the small net in to catch the goldfish, but I heard that these nets are easy to break." Duan Yandong said.

Duan Yandong's five small nets were all broken. He felt that this kind of goldfish would be difficult to catch, so he turned and looked at Wang Xichun.

What she didn’t expect was that there were three goldfish in her bottle. Was it really that easy to get the goldfish out?

The stall owner was also surprised, as most customers could only catch one goldfish with five nets, or even no goldfish at all.

Unexpectedly, a goldfish catching expert came today. She just caught two goldfish with a small net.

Wang Xichun exchanged two goldfish for two strings of candied haws, and the stall owner put a goldfish in a small bottle and gave it to her to take away.

The girl held the corner of Duan Yandong's clothes with one hand and held a candied haws in the other.

The surface of the candied haws is smooth and crystal clear, and each strawberry is evenly coated with syrup, exuding an attractive luster.

Wang Xichun looked at Duan Yandong and asked, "I have never eaten this candied haws before. Have you ever eaten this?"

"I've eaten it once." Duan Yandong replied.

She gently bit off the sugar coating, the fruity aroma hit her nose, and the sweet and sour taste spread in her mouth. She liked it very much.

After Wang Xichun finished eating a strawberry candied haws, she turned her head and looked at the candied haws in Duan Yandong's hand.

"I want more. Can you give me one? Just one!"
