The night wind blew slowly, and except for the continuous lights in the town, the entire sky was pitch black, and not even a single star could be seen. It was really weird.
"It's so dark! I can't see anything clearly...!"
"Brother Zhang~! Could it be that you and Senior Brother Qi teamed up to deceive us?"
Hu Meier and Wang Tao stood in front of the store, looking up at the sky and speaking one after another. Zhang Yi shook his head silently with a confident look on his face, but Feng Ling could faintly see a trace of fluctuation in the dark night sky, which seemed very familiar.
"That's right, where is this...!? Damn it, what is that...?" Li Si turned his head to remind a few people with a horrified look on his face, but he didn't expect that several people saw it at the same time as him, and they were already too shocked to move. He opened his eyes and had no time to pay attention to him.
The dark night sky suddenly lit up, the wind and clouds were changing, and the stars were flowing. On both sides of the sky, a red sun burning with clouds and a bright moon rose simultaneously. The perfect fusion of warm and cold colors seemed to contain endless creation. , this vision shocked everyone.
"The stars change! The sun and the moon shine together..." Feng Ling's heart stirred up a storm. No wonder he felt so familiar. This power was exactly the same as the breath of his body technique!
"Suddenly~!" Just after Feng Ling yelled this sentence, he suddenly found that time in the entire world seemed to have frozen. People looking up at the sky kept their usual movements. The wind stopped and the sound became quiet. Yes, Feng Ling can move!
"Boom~!" As if the sky was falling and the earth was falling, two streams of alternating hot and cold light were rapidly injected into Feng Ling's body, causing her whole body to tremble. The next moment, everything returned to normal. Everyone's eyelids were sore and they rubbed them in confusion, but they didn't pay too much attention.
"Why is one missing?" Wang Tao and the others swallowed hard. The sky was filled with fiery red sunset, but the bright moon was missing...
"The sky shows a strange sight! It's amazing, it's amazing...!" Zhang Yi was filled with surprises and said with emotion: "Being lucky enough to see such a magnificent landscape is not a waste of time in this life."
"Is this the first time that Brother Zhang Yi has seen this?" Feng Ling had a strange look on his face, and finally couldn't help but speak out his doubts.
"Ahem... To be honest, Sunset City has had sun but no moon for thousands of years. This has become an iron rule!" Zhang Yi solemnly revealed the fact that Sunset City has no moon.
"Hiss~!" Wang Tao and others sighed again. Only Feng Ling's eyes flashed and she thought: "Sure enough! Could it be that my sudden change caused some changes in Sunset City?"
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out the problem. In the end, Feng Ling stopped worrying about it. Anyway, he got an unexpected surprise and was in a good mood now!
"Alright~! Brothers, don't worry about this. We have always been uncertain about the celestial phenomena. Let's take advantage of this beautiful scenery to take you to the most lively place in the city at night!" Zhang Yiwen said softly.
"Tsk, tsk~!" Wang Tao and others immediately looked back with emotion, rushing to the next destination in the neon afterglow, and letting the huge red-burning sunset above their heads shine...
******
A few people walked closer to the incense stick, and saw lights and colorful decorations in front of an attic door in front of them, with crowds of people gathering around, and it was very lively...!
"Everyone, be quiet, everyone be quiet~!" A beautiful, middle-aged woman in gorgeous clothes stood outside the Miaoyin Pavilion, reaching out to suppress the noise of the crowd. Then, he glanced over the excited crowd with satisfaction, thinking to himself: "The atmosphere has arrived!"
"Mrs. Xu, what are you planning to do tonight? Tell me quickly, all the young and old men are still waiting!"
"That's it~! Humph, if we don't start, we'll leave!"
Among the people who were about to move, two middle-aged strong men with crooked looks were very dissatisfied. After speaking, they turned around pretending to look like they were "leaving".
"Hmph~! It's best if you two scum leave!" Madam Xu snorted in her heart, ignored the two of them, and quickly spoke in an infectious tone: "We at Miaoyin Pavilion will launch a new round tonight. In the "Guessing Lantern Riddles" activity, the reward for third place is 10 taels, the second place is 50 taels, and the first place is... one hundred taels~...!"
"Hi~! Did I hear you correctly?" Everyone took a breath, became agitated collectively, and vomited blood excitedly: "That's gold! This reward is almost twice as much as before...!?"
"Come on, let's go there!" Zhang Yi said hello, leading Feng Ling and others to squeeze through the crowded crowd. At that moment, the sharp-eyed guards of Miaoyin Pavilion recognized their identities and hurriedly stepped forward to show them their seats.
It turns out that there are many seats placed in front of these people, but those who can sit on them are all rich or noble people!
"Young City Lord~!"
"Uncle Zhang...!"
On the VIP chairs, many fat middle-aged people greeted Zhang Yi and his party. Zhang Yi nodded lightly, which was regarded as a response.
"City Lord...!?" Feng Ling and others were shocked. They had known that Zhang Yi and the Sun family were not simple, but they could not have guessed this result despite all their guesses. If Zhang Yi is the young city lord, come to think of it, then the old city lord is Sun Yunshan.
"Brothers and gentlemen, please feel free to sit down~!" Zhang Yi then motioned for Feng Ling and others to sit down. This position is definitely the one at the front, with an unobstructed view ahead.
"Brother Zhang, do we also want to guess lantern riddles?" Wang Tao asked doubtfully, feeling panic in his heart. Hu Meier and Li Si lowered their heads in confusion, as if thinking.
"Of course, it's fun to play together! In addition, the following lantern riddle competition is just for entertainment, don't let it hurt the harmony!" Zhang Yi smiled gently, but could not hear the implication of Wang Tao and others.
Feng Ling guessed it, and secretly sent a message to Zhang Yi: "Brother Zhang Yi, these guys probably don't even know what lantern riddles are, how can you let them have fun?"
"Ahem~! These wise brothers and sisters have lived in the mountains for a long time and have never been exposed to worldly pleasures. Brother, please tell them in detail the rules of guessing lantern riddles!" Zhang Yi coughed dryly and was reminded by Feng Ling in a low voice to express his embarrassment. Several people started to explain.
"Bang~! Woo~...!" Colorful fireworks exploded into the sky, adding a different kind of beauty to the charming night sky. In the short time it took just a few people to talk, densely packed fireworks were already hanging outside the Miaoyin Pavilion. The small colored lights were sparkling and very dazzling. Zhang Yi immediately motioned to several people to sit upright and prepare to answer the guessing questions.
"Everyone~! I have sent people to put the riddle notes given by the twenty-three beauties on the lanterns." Madam Xu first pointed to the row of colorful lanterns, and then announced the ranking rules: " There are twenty-three questions in each round this time, a total of three rounds, and each question is worth one point. Those who answer more than three questions incorrectly in each round will be eliminated! If they do not answer quickly, no points will be counted. After three rounds, the total will be totaled and sorted in order of high and low. , the rankings can be tied!"
"Have the rules been changed? The difficulty has been increased. I don't dare to speak casually and answer questions."
"No~! However, the rankings are tied, which also means that the possibility of winning is higher than before!"
.......
Noisy comments kept coming, and many people in the crowd were dazzled and eager to try, obviously very confident in themselves.
"Okay, now let's invite City Master Zhang Shao and decide to take the first bye!" Seeing the heated atmosphere, Madam Xu glanced at the VIP seats and bowed to Zhang Yi.
"VIP seat, first bye...!"
"Young City Lord, wait a minute~! Can I allow Xiao Shang to say something?"
Zhang Yi had just stood up and made a loud announcement when he was interrupted by one of the rich men who had greeted him earlier. Feng Ling frowned, and Wang Tao and others looked at him unkindly.
"Mrs. Xu, there were always twenty-four beauties in the past, why is there one missing this time?" Seeing Zhang Yi nodding, Jia Fushang turned around and asked Mrs. Xu, completely ignoring Wang Tao and the others who were trying to attract hatred.
"The girl in the finale has been replaced. The twenty-fourth beauty this time was temporarily arranged as the finale!" Madam Xu responded calmly with a frivolous eyebrow. After the wealthy businessman took his seat, everyone started making noise again, looking forward to the girl who would be the finale.
