The plan to save the king of Yunmeng

Seeing that the two were safe, the Yu family members who were pretending to be porters and casual cultivators all breathed a sigh of relief...

With Yun Ke's help, the two of them rested when they needed to and traveled when they needed to, and they arrived at Wanhua Town safely. When they arrived at Wanhua Town, the lights were already on.

After all, the two of them set out at almost noon, and their pace was not fast...

And this Wanhua Town was actually the market town under the big flying boat on the day Jiang Cheng was attacked!!!

As expected, the place was bustling with people, and could be described as bustling. Yu Baishu was like a skylark released from a cage, jumping happily, touching here, looking there...

Jiang Cheng quietly looked around and saw that at least a quarter of the people had an inconspicuous leaf embroidered on their belts. Among these people, there were peddlers, men and women, and even families of three...

Jiang Cheng was secretly relieved, because this leaf was an agreement between Jiang Cheng and the Yu family's grandparents. All the people sent by the Yu family to protect the two of them would be embroidered with this pattern...

When Yu Baishu wanted to eat, Jiang Cheng would lead him to the shops with signs, and the rest were up to Yu Baishu's wishes. After all, three or four of the ten stalls belonged to the Yu family...

In this way, the two of them wandered to a place where people were guessing lantern riddles. Yu Baishu was attracted by a goat-horn lantern.

The material of the palace lantern was strange, and the style was different from other lanterns. The workmanship was incredibly fine, and the wick in the middle didn't feel like a candle, it looked like something was emitting light on its own.

So, Yu Baishu dragged Jiang Cheng to guess lantern riddles...

The note corresponding to the palace lantern read: "Green leaves are connected to the pink stamens, the heart is exquisite and transparent, they are from the same root and bloom in pairs, they come as a smile and leave as a fruit."

Yu Baishu read it several times, but he couldn't get it right...

I had no choice but to look to Jiang Cheng for help...

The white-haired boss, wearing an ordinary cloth hat and coarse linen clothes, was calm and composed. He stroked his white beard and said, "My two young masters, I am not bragging, but many people have already taken a fancy to this lantern. Unfortunately, they have not been able to guess the riddle. I wonder if you two young masters can get it."

A man dressed as a scholar nearby echoed, "Yes, I guessed it was the lotus, but the boss refused to admit it. I will wait here today to see what the answer is."

Others also echoed, yes, yes, others who were standing by said: "Me too"

Everyone started to help each other...

Person A: "Look at this. The green leaves and the pink stamens are very similar to lotus flowers."

B: "Look at this sentence again, 'Exquisite and transparent jade heart'. Aren't the petals of the lotus exquisite and transparent? Isn't the heart of the lotus a small lotus pod like jade?"

C: "This is a book about two flowers growing from the same root. Doesn't the lotus grow from the lotus root? There is more than one lotus on the lotus root." After saying this, he glanced at the boss unconvinced...

Ding: "When it comes, it is beautiful and when it leaves, it is fruit. I can tell from the boss's writing talent that he is average, and there are even typos. When the lotus blooms, it is naturally beautiful and brilliant. When the lotus withers, it naturally bears lotus pods, which are its fruits."

The others talked at once, but all said in unison: "Yes, yes, I think the boss just couldn't bear to part with the lantern, so he refused to acknowledge it."

As they talked, everyone became more and more angry!

The old man looked at Jiang Cheng calmly and asked, "What do you think?"

Jiang Cheng didn't know why, but he always felt something was wrong, but he still answered: "Everyone said the first and second sentences are good, maybe there is a problem with the third sentence. From the same root, two flowers bloom, it should be a twin lotus..."

The old man interrupted calmly, "Now, young master, do you know the answer to the riddle?"

Jiang Cheng: "Twin Lotus"

The old man laughed happily, stroked his beard, took down the lantern, handed it to Jiang Cheng, and said kindly: "This lantern is yours!"

After the old man finished speaking, he turned around and began to put away the lamp stand, picked it up and was about to leave...

Everyone: "Hey, hey, hey, why are you leaving?"

The old man said nonchalantly: "My most beautiful lanterns have been guessed away. It's meaningless for me to keep them. I'm leaving now..."

Jiang Cheng quickly said, "Old sir, what does the last sentence mean..."

Although the old man was old, his legs and feet were very fast. He had already walked very far. Only his ethereal voice could be heard in the crowd: "It cannot be said, it cannot be said..."

Jiang Cheng just felt a little unsatisfied, but then he saw Yu Baishu looking at him expectantly with starry eyes...

Jiang Cheng felt that the stars in Yu Baishu's eyes were about to burst out and hit him in the face, so he quickly gave the lantern to Yu Baishu...

Yu Baishu was extremely happy. He took the lantern and ran forward again with great joy...

The two had a great time at the lantern festival, and their last stop was to release river lanterns...

Jiang Cheng bought two river lanterns and handed one to Yu Baishu. Yu Baishu picked up a pen and wrote on the wish sign...

After Jiang Cheng finished writing his wish, he saw Yu Baishu was still writing...

Jiang Cheng leaned over, saw it, and read it out loud: "May my cousin be safe and sound and live to old age? What a weird wish you have..."

Yu Baishu heard Jiang Cheng's voice and looked up to see Jiang Cheng's behavior.

Like a frightened cat, he quickly covered his note with his hands and complained: "Cousin, you are a scoundrel. How could you read my note? My wish will not come true if I say it out loud!!!"

After Yu Baishu finished his accusation, he actually squatted down and cried...!

Jiang Cheng was at a loss for a moment...

In the mustard seed space...

Wuyou turned to Wanyin for help: "Oh! Damn it, I made my cousin cry, what should I do?"

Wan Yin: "You should comfort yourself if you cause trouble. The main thing is that I don't know how to comfort you!"

Jiang Cheng quickly squatted down and looked at Yu Baishu, apologizing: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it... I didn't know... I was wrong, I was wrong..."

...Jiang Cheng coaxed her for a long time...

Finally, he had to coax Yu Baishu: "I saw the wish on this lantern, so it's invalid. Let's change the lantern. I won't peek when you write your wish, so it will definitely come true..."

Yu Baishu raised his head with tears in his eyes: "Really?"

Jiang Cheng almost swore to heaven, and said quickly: "Really, really, it was Yun Ke who lied to you..."

Yun Ke, who was chewing a bone at the side, said: "?"

Finally, the two of them lit the river lanterns, released them and made a wish. Jiang Cheng brought the sleepy Yu Baishu back to the inn...

The two people's lanterns were floating on the river...

One of them reads: "I hope the people I care about can be safe and healthy..." It has been lit by the lanterns on the river and is slowly burning...

One with the words "May my cousin live in peace and safety and live to old age" was also lit. When it was burning vigorously, it was extinguished by the waves from the children who were fishing for lanterns with bamboo poles nearby...

The children took out the unburned wish sticks from the river lanterns and threw them back into the river. A few words "live to old age" floated alone on the surface of the river...
