Chapter 20 The Eve of the Lantern Festival

The Baiye City Lantern Festival is no less lively than the Lantern Festival in the Central Plains. Although there are still two days before the Lantern Festival starts, the shops on the street have been lined up. The festive atmosphere enveloped everyone, paving a warm and lively path for the Mid-Autumn Festival half a month later.The children looked around with their parents, holding a beautiful little lantern in their hands; the adults used this lantern show as a platform for reminiscing about the past, and when they met acquaintances, they stopped to chat for a while, reminiscing about the past, and shaking hands.

"Yeah, so the main purpose of this Lantern Festival is to tell the wanderers far away that it's time to go home and have a look?"

"Well, yes." Gongsunyue said with a smile on her face, "Young people nowadays love to play, and the Lantern Festival just provides a reason for them to go home."

"So that's how it is. The thread in the loving mother's hand, and the shirt on the wanderer's body. Before leaving, there will be a lot of seams, and I'm afraid I'll return later. Whoever says nothing about grass will repay three springs." Tan Wuyu said with emotion, casting his eyes on every face On the smiling pedestrians, happiness, satisfaction, anticipation... Such beautiful emotions seem to infect all the people who come to shop. No one has a sad face, no one is frightened, and no one has tears in their eyes.

Mid-Autumn Festival, it's time for a family member.

"Well, buddy, let's turn to meet Su Zhenzhen and the others." After being out for so long, Mr. Butterfly's jealous vat might explode.

"Will your children come back?" Tan Wuyu nodded and followed Gongsunyue on the familiar road.Maybe it's because of knowing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, maybe it's because the feeling of being too happy and warm can easily make the lonely guest feel melancholy, maybe it's because of other unexplainable reasons, Tan Wuyu feels a little depressed.

The crowd is so crowded that it seems that everyone who walks in the opposite direction can be washed away.

Hearing Tan Wuyu mentioning her child, Gongsunyue's feminine halo of being a woman and a mother suddenly radiated violently. "Of course, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a regular gathering in our family. No matter what the reason is, no matter how far away, everyone who is away from home must rush back to have a group meal. So far, no one has dared to violate this family practice. "She spoke with great pride and happiness, the brilliance in her eyes was exactly the same as that of the smiling people on the street.

Tan Wuyu suppressed the feeling of depression in his heart, and said with a little envy: "Seeing that you live so happily, as your friend, I also feel very relieved. It is rare for people in the Jianghu to die well. If you are like this, you can be regarded as a good person." Fairy couple."

"Ha, friend, according to your appearance and talent, I believe that one day, you can also find your fairy couple." Gongsunyue joked, but a page of requests to persuade Su Zhenzhen to return to the Central Plains quickly flew through her mind. , such a difficult matter, if Tan Wuyu is willing to help...

"Don't talk about it." Tan Wuyu avoided a reckless child, and changed the subject: "Have you seen Tired Shoutian recently?" They originally agreed to investigate a page of the book together, but it turned out that Tired Shoutian a few days ago The disappearance for no reason made him worry about the other party's safety when he was rushing about the matter of a page these days.

"He seems to have a friend named Yuan Wuxiang. When the other party came that day, he dragged Tired Shoutian away."

"Oh, that's how it is." Unexpectedly, Yuan Wuxiang also came to Baiye City. It seems that the people in the Central Plains should have received the news of Su Zhenzhen's rebirth.I don't know if Qi Tianbian has returned to the Central Plains, and if he has heard the latest movement of Yiyingshu.

Gongsunyue knew that the two of them were going to jointly investigate the one-page book, so she couldn't help but think about what the one-page book revealed to her. She thought about it a little, and wanted to take advantage of the atmosphere to tell Tan Wuyu about the one-page book entrusted to her. However, just when she was about to speak, countless Kongming lanterns suddenly flew up above her head. They fluttered and occupied the sky with the wind blowing; I mistakenly thought that I could reach the stars and the moon by stepping on Kongming lanterns.

"So many Kongming lanterns." Tan Wuyu's eyes were also full of surprise, this was the first time he had seen such a scene.In the Central Plains, placing Kongming lanterns indiscriminately will be killed for hindering the flight of sword repairers.

"This is a sign calling for wanderers to remember to return home. Kongming lanterns have always had the function of making wishes and praying. It is more important than everything else in the world to be able to gather a family together for a meal."

Tan Wuyu let out a soft "um", and continued to stand aside watching hundreds of Kongming lanterns fly by one after another.Gongsunyue sighed secretly, missed the best atmosphere, and had to find another good time.

Family reunion is the deepest yearning in everyone's heart. People often only know how to cherish it after they have lost it, but how sure are they that they can get it back after losing it.Tan Wuyu's gaze fell on the bright moon through the long-lasting Kongming lantern, the spring breeze turned green to the south bank of the river, when will the bright moon shine on me?Hmm... I kind of miss Su Zhenzhen's group of people.

"My friend, close your eyes and make a wish. If you make a wish in front of the Kongming Lantern, the probability of your wish coming true is 80%." Gongsunyue quickly reminded with her head tilted, folded her hands on her chest, and said her wish sincerely in her heart .

For Tan Wuyu, who has always let nature take its course and lives according to the circumstances, closing his eyes and making a wish to a lamp is like pointing a deer into a horse, which is funny and funny.However, the people around him closed their eyes and began to mumble. After a while, he was the only one left in this corner with his eyes open, looking indifferent. He hesitated for a moment, and finally closed his eyes and made a wish like the people around him.

Well, he's just doing as the Romans do, nothing else.But... well... I still hope that my friends will have no worries, that Gongsunyue's family will be reunited, that the misunderstanding between Suzhenzhen and Yiyingshu can be properly resolved, and that they can return to the Central Plains as soon as possible.

As the moonlight fell, the scattered stars shone brightly, and a few meteors quickly fell to the distant horizon. Everyone in Baiye City closed their eyes and made a wish, like a ritual, silently convincing everyone to join.

"Why do I think our behavior was a bit stupid just now?" After the wish-making ceremony, Qin Jiaxian opened his eyes and rubbed his hands, with an indescribably awkward expression, "It's like a cult, and it's a fight with Qi Tian Bian."

Qi Tianbian, who was far away in the Central Plains, suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose, and muttered in the direction of Baiye City: "It must be that old and dishonest Qin Jiaxian who is slandering me again." He returned to the Central Plains for about half a month, but unfortunately He didn't find a trace of information about Yipage, only his subordinates, who wiped out a few small sects from time to time.

In fact, he believes that the grievances between Yi Yishu and Su Huanzhen are completely unnecessary and worthy of everyone's nervousness. As long as the misunderstanding is clearly explained, everything will be fine.Although Yiyingshu's style of work has undergone earth-shaking changes, countless sects, large and small, have been wiped out in the past few hundred years, and there are even rumors that he has become a demon, but... those who are interested can know those sects that have been wiped out just by doing a little research. It's all just trickery, extremely hypocritical.

Alas, one page of the book, one page of the book, if you really go to Baiye City, you must seize the opportunity to make peace with Su Zhenzhen.Su Huanzhen, Su Huanzhen, if Yiyishu really finds you, please reconcile with him.In the past 700 years, it has been difficult for anyone. He is the one who worries about you the most, and the person who wants to see you the most is also him... Sigh.

Qi Tianbian turned over, pulled the pillow to hug him, the night was quiet, it was time to sleep.

"Hey, Beibeixiu, did you just make a wish?" Yuan Wuxiang and others who came out to look for the large army were also reminded by Mr. Butterfly, they went to do as the Romans do, and made a wish with their eyes closed.Those Kongming lanterns either fell or drifted away, leaving only a few sporadic ones for people to recall.

"No." Tired Shoutian said lightly, you should not rely on others to realize your wishes, but on yourself, you get something for nothing, and if you get it, you will lose it soon.

Well, as expected, people who don't understand style are hopelessly rigid.Yuan Wuxiang took a deep breath, poked him with his elbow, and said with a smile, "I made a wish, Beibei Xiu, guess what I made."

"Huh?" Tired Shoutian turned his head and looked straight at Uehara Wuxiang, "What wish did you make?" He resisted the urge to turn his head and asked a little uncomfortable.Strange, did Mo Zhaonu's carp lantern be received by Yuan Wuxiang?Why is there such a bright eye light.

"This..." Yuan Wuxiang continued to look at Tired Shoutian with bright eyes and smiled, "North Show, to be honest, have you made a wish?"

Tired Shoutian blinked, and the image of Yuan Wuxiang covering his mouth in surprise in front of him couldn't help but blurted out the truth, "Yes."

"Sure enough, I guessed it right." Yuan Wuxiang smiled and rolled his eyes, his upper and lower eyelashes intertwined, like colorful clouds floating in front of the crescent moon.Seeing him so happy, Tired Shoutian slightly raised the corners of his lips when his expression eased.Sometimes he really looks like a child, he thought, and the arc of his lips became bigger.

The skill of pretending to be tender is useful, and I smiled tiredly.The villain in Yuan Wuxiang's heart jumped up and down with excitement, and he took another step towards success. According to the records in the book, making an iceberg face laugh shows that there are only 70 steps left to success~!

"I hope to be with Beibeixiu forever. This is the wish I just made." Yuan Wuxiang continued to use the skills of pretending to be tender and cute, and strictly followed the process in the book step by step.

"Uh." Tired Shoutian was at a loss for words for a moment, and his ears felt inexplicably hot.

Crowds of people came and went, but the two of them stood still and looked at each other for a long time.Mottled tree shadows are trampled under the feet of pedestrians. In the long river of life, there are always some people who will not advance or retreat, stubbornly waiting in place.

Yuan Wuxiang blinked, remembering Tired Shoutian's reaction in his heart.Well, say some ambiguous words appropriately to make the other party worry about it, and then cause the other party to think. He ended this ambiguous atmosphere and made the other party feel disappointed. Perfect, he seems to be ten steps closer to success~!

"Hmm. Let's go." Tired Shoutian suddenly came back to his senses, the tips of his ears turned red.Yuan Wuxiang couldn't help laughing in his heart, and took the lead to step forward, leaving the embarrassing and obvious Tired Shoutian in place.Ha, Beibei Xiu, you are out of your mind.

Tired Shoutian, who had already been engraved in Yuan Wuxiang's heart, settled down, followed Yuan Wuxiang's face as usual, and the doubts and explorations in his heart rose a few levels again.Hmm... Yuan Wuxiang not only behaves differently, but also speaks very strangely. I don't know if Zhaoshimingdeng or Su Zhenzhen can find out what kind of disease Yuanwuxiang has. I hope there is still time.Tired Shoutian, who forcibly included Yuan Wuxiang in the ranks of [patients], forcibly ignored his equally abnormal reaction just now, speeded up his pace, and was determined to find Su Zhenzhen and his party as soon as possible.

Mr. Butterfly has a set of superb skills in finding people, and soon under his leadership, they found Su Zhenzhen and his party who were leisurely shopping.

"A Yuezi!" "Third brother!" Mo Zhaonu and Mr. Butterfly shouted at the same time, so excited that they wanted to squeeze through the crowd and fly to them.

"Yeah, it's Mr. Butterfly and the others, and Yuan Wuxiang is also here." Qu Shitu turned his head and said in surprise, "I didn't expect Yuan Wuxiang to come to Baiye City."

"It turns out that the sudden disappearance of Tired Shoutian has something to do with Yuan Wuxiang."

Su Zhenzhen stood up, raised his arms, and a pair of glowing light sticks on his wrists illuminated his face green and yellow.Tan Wuyu, who had just joined them, couldn't help chuckling, his senior brother is so cute.

Gongsunyue also raised her arms, and then put her hands around her mouth like a trumpet, and called out loudly: "Mr. Butterfly—" A sea of ​​people, densely intertwined, with lights, suddenly looking back, the man was in a dimly lit place.
