Seventy-two Changes of the Evil Spirits

Chapter 32: Lantern Festival

"Dongfeng night flowers and thousands of trees. Even more blowing, the stars like rain."

Jiaxuan Jushi's "The Case of Qingyu" fully described the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival. Although the Lantern Festival tonight is not in the Lantern Festival, let alone in Lin'an, there are also three-point images in the lively places.

Although it has been on the moon.

But the city became more and more jubilant.

There are trees and flowers on both sides of the street.

Pedestrians are crowded with laughter, and all kinds of vendors are connected along the street.

In Russia, the gongs and drums were noisy, and a large group of people came on the street.

There is a three or four-meter goddess statue, decorated with ribbons and lanterns. Behind the statue, there are gongs and drums, stilts, fire-breathing, lion dance... Long dragon!

A string of silver bell-like laughter rang.

An eleven or twelve-year-old girl in the "Long Dragon" was born.

"Hey, slow down."

Immediately, another young woman with a gentle temperament came out.

These two temperaments and appearances and even the clothes on the body are hard to see in this small county, but the pedestrians around them seem to be unable to see them, and they can't help but walk around when they are close to them.

"smell good!"

Suddenly, the girl raised her face, sniffed her nose in the air, and ran to a chaotic stall following the smell.

"Old man! Old man!"

She called twice, but the old man who sold chaos did not respond at all, just greeted other guests.

The girl rolled her eyes, turned her head to the girl who followed, and said softly, "Sister!"

"Eh."

The woman responded and pinched her hand.

The old man seemed to have only seen the two of them. Although he was shocked for a moment by their temperament and appearance, he still walked up.

"What do you want?"

"Old man, what are you cooking in the pot?" The girl happily took the woman down and asked, pointing to the iron pan, "It looks so delicious!"

"The little girl has eyesight." The old man was exaggerated and smiled, "My bowl of wontons, but the old name in this city, even the Bodhisattva has to say it tastes good!"

This is too much boasting, but the little girl's face shines upon hearing it.

"Bring me one...two bowls!"

"Dele!"

After a while, the hot wontons were served on the table for two nights.

The little girl picked up the chopsticks, her eyes lit up, and one was picked up, and she screamed before importing it.

"good to eat!"

What is the taste of this food, it is clearly eaten fresh.

With a slight smile on the woman’s face, she just watched the little girl feasting, but she

I didn't even touch the chopsticks.

When the little girl had eaten almost, she said softly:

"It's time to go back, Master is waiting anxiously."

Upon hearing this, the cheerful expression on the little girl's face suddenly wilted. She reluctantly glanced at the lively street, nodded, but suddenly said:

"Mother said, if you take things in a mortal place, you have to pay...Should we pay?"

"Paying?"

The woman’s face was full of surprises. Obviously, there was no word "pay" in her dictionary. Her expression was a little embarrassed, "But, I didn't bring any money."

"In this case..." the little girl suddenly called with her eyes. "Old man!"

The old man heard the sound, but the little girl took out a jade ring from her pocket.

"Can this be worth the Chaos Money?"

The old man's eyes are straight!

Not to mention that this jade ring is worth two bowls of chaos, it is more than enough even if people bring a stall to pack it down.

The old man shook his hands and held it up, but suddenly he stretched out his hand from the side and gently took the jade ring off.

"A bowl of Chaos is not worth the price. I paid for the Chaos money for them."

A Taoist priest wearing a fox mask suddenly emerged from the crowd and sprinkled a few copper pieces on the palm of the old man's hand. Afterwards, he took Yuhuan into his arms calmly.

The woman frowned upon seeing this.

The girl suddenly widened her eyes and said excitedly: "Brother Taoist, where did you buy this mask?"

This name made the Taoist priest also stunned, but he still pointed to the opposite side of the street.

"Bought there."

The girl looked in the direction the Taoist priest was pointing, and there were strange faces on a small mask stall opposite.

"Sister, I want it!"

The woman glanced at the Taoist priest warily, turned her head, her face was helpless.

"We have no money."

"If you don't mind." The Taoist suddenly interjected, "I can buy it for you."

The woman frowned and was about to refuse, but the little girl clapped her hands.

"OK."

The little girl forced the woman to come to the mask stall, first chose a fox mask exactly like the Taoist priest, and then a rabbit mask. One after another, just caged on his head.

"Selling candied haws! Big, round and sweet candied haws!"

A candied haws seller swaggered past her.

The little girl stared at the bunches of candied haws, her eyes straight. She turned her head quickly, and the Chong Taoist said:

"Brother Taoist, can you buy me a bunch of candied haws?"

Taoist words with a smile: "Of course you can."

It didn't take a moment.

The little girl wore two masks on her head, holding candied haws in one hand, and the sugar man in the other. There were also some messy objects that were held by the dumbfounding woman.

She took a bite of the candied haw, and another bite of the candied man.

"Brother Taoist, you are such a good person! If it weren't for my house to move out, I would definitely invite you to visit my house!"

"Moving?" The Taoist also took a bunch of candied haws, and his words were a bit slurred under the mask, "Is it bad here?"

The little girl's tone was low.

"I also think it's very good here, but recently a bad neighbor came near my house..." She said, holding her snacks and dancing her claws for a while, but she looked even more charming and cute, "...very fierce! My mother said she would. It caused disasters and was afraid that it would affect us, so we had to move out."

"Evil neighbor? Where is the evil neighbor?"

"at……"

The little girl raised her hand and pointed, and was about to speak, but was quickly pulled by the gentle woman.

The little girl realized that she almost missed her mouth.

"I won't tell you!" She waved to the Taoist priest. "Goodbye, Brother Taoist."

After speaking, she took the gentle woman and ran away.

The Taoist priest also waved his hand, but looked back in the direction pointed by the little girl.

The waning moon hangs on the head of the cloud, and the outline of a mountain is indistinct in the moonlight.

……………………

"Slow down, slow down."

The woman greeted softly.

The girl didn't care about it, holding the woman, just running rampant.

Suddenly, but stopped.

Ahead, a young woman in a palace costume stood by the wall of the long alley and looked over with a smile. This young woman has a graceful posture and luxurious jewellery, but she is incompatible with her surroundings. She is so eye-catching and beautiful, but no one of the pedestrians around her stops to take a look. She just walks around spontaneously, leaving a wide open area around her.

"Mother!"

The girl smiled and threw herself into the arms of the young woman.

"It's so lively and fun, can we not move away?!"

"It's not that my mother doesn't want to live here." The young woman touched the girl's head, her voice full of pampering, "I really can't live anymore!"

"But where is there any disaster!"

The young woman smiled and shook her head.

Disaster? Isn't it already here?

She raised her eyes and looked up, under the flowers and trees, the Taoist priest in the fox mask nodded at her, turned and merged into the hustle and bustle of people.

She patted the girl's vest and held her little hand.

"It's getting late, and we should get on the road."

Let's talk, leading the girl and the gentle woman, turned and stepped into the shadow of the corner.

Under the corner, there is a row of finger-high bronze statues. These bronze statues are beautifully cast and are in complete style. The burdened servant, and the bullock cart with luggage...

Strangely, the three of them stepped forward, their bodies shrank sharply, and soon they were about the size of the bronze man. They walked to the carriage, pulled the carriage, and got in.

Then, these bronze statues began to move, the samurai drove the horse to open the way, the musicians played the gongs and drums, the groom waved his whip, and the wheels rolled slowly...

After a while, the carriage disappeared into the shadows.
