Three days later, at night
In the bustling city streets, an old man wearing a short jacket was performing a lantern shadow play with his wife and son in front of a lively riverside.
This is their ancestral craft, and they are especially good at interpreting the classic story of the Yuan Dynasty, Baihe Jiang.
At this moment, the old man controlled several puppeteers alone, while his wife and son were responsible for the vocals and dubbing. The wonderful performance and the vivid workmanship of the puppeteers amazed the children squatting in front of the white screen.
Among these children, there was also a handsome young man and a...duck.
"Brother, it's such a waste that you threw the corpse magic technique you found at the old man's house into the river of women." The handsome duck looked at the young man who was constantly applauding and applauding, and said helplessly:
"Such a good spell, although it is indeed a bit evil, the records in it also have merits. It is a matter of chance."
While watching the shadow puppet show intently, the young man responded disdainfully: "What's so great about chance? That thing has harmed so many people, so let it be reincarnated with those innocent undead."
After saying that, the lantern shadow play came to its climax. The boy cheered loudly again, clapped his hands, and his whole face turned red with excitement.
Soon, the soul-stirring and lifelike Bai He will finish his performance. The young man is still not satisfied with watching it. He is about to call the old man to perform again, but a sweet girl's voice comes from behind him.
"Lin Xiaolu, come and see if the new clothes I and Jiang Ning bought are good-looking."
"Hmm, it looks good, good! Grandpa is very capable! One more!"
When Shangguan Shiliu saw that Lin Xiaolu didn't turn his head at all, but was concentrating on watching the lantern show, Shangguan Shiliu was so angry that his nose twisted. He immediately raised his short leg and kicked the boy on the butt.
"tie!"
On the crowded street, Shangguan Shiliu, who was wearing a pure white dress, hugged her sore feet and inhaled, tears welling up in her eyes.
Why is this guy's butt so hard? Is it really made of stone?
Jiang Ning and Wu Guo on the side were also very happy when they saw this scene, but they were too embarrassed to laugh out loud, and it was extremely difficult to hold it in.
It has been three days since they left Zhoujia Village. This small team escorting the Princess of the Tang Dynasty has also arrived in Danyang, the most prosperous city in the Yuan Kingdom. Coincidentally, they heard that there was a sky lantern party in Danyang tonight, so a few young people decided to come here. Have fun for a night.
At this moment, on the streets beside the river, there was an endless stream of talented people and beauties, pedestrians and vendors, all kinds of talking, laughing, fighting, and vendors' cries mixed together, making tonight's night extraordinarily beautiful.
Shangguan Shiliu tried hard to drag Lin Xiaolu away, but the guy refused, so Shangguan Shiliu took off his pants, and finally Lin Xiaolu had no choice but to go shopping with them.
"I heard that sky lanterns will be put up in the city tonight at Haishi. Let's buy a few and put them up then."
"Okay, okay, then there will be sky lanterns everywhere in the sky, it will be really beautiful."
The two girls, Shangguan Shiliu and Jiang Ning, walked in front of Lin Xiaolu and Wu Kuai, weaving in and out of the crowd, discussing their actions for a while while letting out sweet smiles, and looking at Fangtian Lin Xiaolu, who was not interested in such things at all, had a sad and angry look on his face.
Write your wishes down and put them in the sky lanterns. Isn't this just like putting out lanterns in Dai Viet? I've already done it once and I'm not interested at all.
As he walked, he looked around idly, and not long after, he saw a gorgeous, brightly lit restaurant in front of him.
On the open-air terrace on the second floor of the restaurant and in front of the door, there are many beautiful women, all charming and charming, inviting tourists to come in and have a rest.
Lin Xiaolu took a curious look and was surprised, why did this restaurant look so much like the original Miao Yufang?
He blinked twice, then showed a wicked smile and secretly asked Wu Guan beside him:
"Wugou, do you know where is ahead?"
Hearing this, Wu Guo looked at the restaurant curiously, then shook his head in confusion.
"The young monk doesn't know."
"Hehe, big brother will take you to see the world later!" Lin Xiaolu said with a wicked smile to Wu Gu: "Shopping with girls is not interesting at all. We should have some fun by ourselves, right?"
Wu Gu was confused, and just as he hesitantly said "But", the handsome duck below patted his leg and said disdainfully: "But what but, little monk, you should learn more from my elder brother, and from the girl." Is there a future for shopping?"
"Yes, yes." Lin Xiaolu nodded repeatedly: "We are no longer children, it's time to do some adult things!"
Wugu was still a little hesitant when he heard the words. He looked at the scantily clad women, his face turned red and he said:
"Deer Donor, Duck Donor, these women are all dressed in strange clothes and have evil smiles. They may be evil people."
"That's why I want you to rescue them!" The handsome duck urged without hesitation: "Didn't the Buddha say that if you don't go to hell, who will?"
Wugou:……
"This is not what the Buddha said. It is what Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said. It comes from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra." He explained seriously.
"Okay, okay, Ksitigarbha is Ksitigarbha, little monk, my eldest brother and I are going to rescue those women who are in deep misery. Aren't you going?"
"Forehead……"
Wu Gu was silent for a while, then nodded hesitantly.
"What the duck donor said makes sense. The young monk is willing to go to ferry them."
After saying that, he was about to say hello to Jiang Ning and Shangguan Shiliu, but Lin Xiaolu had quick eyes and quick hands. Taking advantage of the two girls chatting in front, he covered Wu Gu's mouth, picked him up and ran away, handsome duck. He also followed at his feet, spreading his wings behind him, rushing forward with his neck, and clacking his paws.
Just kidding, if I told Jiang Ning and Hua Die, I would be kidding.
In the street, many pedestrians who were playing saw a strange scene. A little Taoist boy was carrying a little monk with red cheeks and running fast, followed by a little duck with a serious face.
Soon, the two of them arrived in front of this luxurious restaurant called "Yangchun Baixue Building".
Looking at the fragrant nephrite in front of the restaurant, Lin Xiaolu looked excited:
"Little monk, tonight is the time for us to prove ourselves! Show your courage! Show your compassion! Fight them hard!"
Wu Gu's face looked strange after hearing this. He always felt that there was something wrong with what he said, but he couldn't explain it. After a moment, he could only nod helplessly.
"Little monk, try your best."
"Haha, okay!" Lin Xiaolu patted his shoulder, and then swaggered him and Shuai Shuaiya into the Yangchun Baixue Building. As a Taoist priest and a monk, they instantly attracted countless people when they appeared. The gaze of the female tourist made the people around her start talking.
Soon, the two teenagers came to the door. A beautiful woman holding a round fan and wearing a rose-red palace dress noticed them. The beautiful woman first glanced at the two men's clothes in surprise, and then she was not surprised. Come forward to greet him warmly.
"Hey, hello, two young masters."
When Wu Gu saw the heavily made-up woman in front of him and saluted him, his face instantly turned red and he lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
Lin Xiaolu was actually not much better, but he could pretend to be a regular customer, and kept comforting himself, saying to himself in his heart: "Lin Xiaolu, don't be afraid, you have been to this kind of place since you were eight years old. , I’m very familiar with you, don’t let others laugh at you, otherwise you will lose face.”
After encouraging himself, he looked at the beautiful woman in front of him carelessly, put his little hands on his hips, and shouted passionately:
"I want to eat!"
