The first day of the twelfth lunar month.
Houtong Lane, small earthen courtyard.
Come back from private school in the morning, practice in the afternoon, and stay until evening.
Su Chen had already made preparations. Seeing that it was getting late, he sat at home and waited for Nangong Bing'er to go to the temple fair and night market together.
He took out the "Imperial Calendar" booklet bound with gold from the Yin-Yang Gate from the Tianhu Spirit Ring, opened the yellowed pages, and read the page on the first day of the twelfth lunar month.
"{First day of the twelfth lunar month}
Prediction of bad luck: The end of the year and the first day of the twelfth lunar month, good luck! It is advisable to pray for blessings, receive good fortune, and avoid disasters.
Suitable for: temple fairs, praying for blessings, offering sacrifices, hunting, trading, collecting money, making stoves, consecrating lights, getting rid of insects...
Taboo: Burial. "
"The first day of the twelfth lunar month is auspicious! There are so many things to do, it is indeed a good day!"
When Su Chen saw the handwriting, he couldn't help but nodded secretly.
Today is quite auspicious, and there should be a lot of gains from this temple fair.
After a short while, I saw a beautiful figure climbing over the wall of the small earth courtyard.
When he saw Nangong Bing'er's makeup, his eyes lit up.
Nangong Bing'er's attire is different from the past. She has jet-black hair in a bun and misty temples, lightly powdered, with bright eyes and white teeth. Her icy skin is as clear as a walnut, and she is as beautiful as a flower.
She wore soft armor on the inside, a deep red skirt on the outside, and a spiritual sword on her waist. A faint fragrance hit her wherever she passed, making her look particularly heroic.
"Recipe, Shining!"
Su Chen couldn't help but close the "Imperial Calendar", stood up, and muttered.
When Nangong Bing'er heard this, her face instantly turned red, her beautiful eyes slightly angry and she said, "Let's go! We'll be late later, and the temple fair is over!"
She didn't want her to sneak out of the mansion quietly, only to be discovered by Mrs. Nangong and send someone to chase her back.
"No need to worry, the temple fairs will stay open all night long and have fun all night long."
Su Chen is quite experienced.
Although he used to live in Chaogexian City, it was quite close to Luoyi. He came to Luoyi to visit several temple fairs, and they stayed up all night and lasted for many days.
Su Chen locked the wooden door of the small courtyard, and the two of them left the small courtyard together.
"By the way, little brother, have you brought your Rouge fan?..."
"Take it with you!...Miss Nangong, do you want to go to Yanyu Tower?"
"The Yanyu Tower is near the Xiaoluo River. I finally made it out, so I'll go shopping tonight~! ...Maybe the painting boat will be very lively!"
"Every temple fair is the most lively place near Xiaoluo River. There will definitely be activities at the Yanyu Painting Boat... Miss Nangong, do you want to recruit the oiran of Yanyu Tower, Miss Ali?"
Su Chen asked curiously.
Nangong Bing'er has always been thinking about Ah Li, the courtesan of Yanyu Tower. She must not have had her eye on a rouge fan, and she must have something in mind.
Otherwise, she would not have given him the rouge fan that was not easily obtained.
"Although Fengmen is not like the Imperial Clan, which requires feudal lords to establish kingdoms and compete in the Middle-earth Divine State. But Fengmen's disciples also need their own power and a basic team.
There are many people in the Nangong family, but they all serve my parents, not me.
I need a force that is completely my own! ...
Yanyu Tower has the best information in the world. If Miss Ali is willing to follow me, it will be of great benefit to me. ...
Of course, if she doesn't want to, then I can only make other plans. "
Nangong Binger said.
Her only helper now is Su Chen. Many things need to be done through him, so naturally she won't hide them from him.
Su Chen nodded.
She wanted to win over a group of people and form a team.
He chuckled inwardly.
This is quite a coincidence!
The two of them used the speed movement technique and quickly passed through the Gutong Alley and headed towards the Xiaoluo River where the temple fair was held.
Su Chen was surprised to find,
Nangong Bing'er's Bingmen speed walking is crisp, fast and decisive, without any lag, one step is three feet, and the pace is very rhythmic.
She practiced the military footwork and went straight to the target with sharpness and energy.
In contrast, his Yin-Yang Gate footwork is shimmering and erratic, with almost no repeating patterns and no way for others to predict where he will end up.
He was thoughtful.
People are like walking!
Nangong Bing'er's character is very direct and decisive, and her execution ability is very strong.
...
The Imperial City of Luoyi in the Great Ji Immortal Dynasty.
Not long after,
Su Chen and Nangong Bing'er arrived near Xiaoluo River.
Near Xiaoluo River, there are many temples of various sects.
Confucian Confucian Temple, Sanqing Taoist Temple, Dongyue Emperor Temple, Qingyun Temple, Leigong Temple, Earth Temple, Wealth Temple,...and some less famous small temples all took root here.
Temples of all sizes will take advantage of the end of the year and the twelfth lunar month to hold grand temple fairs to worship ancestors, saints and gods, while selling some incense and earning money.
At this time, it was already evening.
Under the sunset, Luoyi is awash in red.
"I'm selling rock sugar gourds for a penny!"
"Dali Pills! First-class Hercules Pills. If you take one pill, you can gain a thousand kilograms of strength! Good stuff, only one tael of black silver!"
People from the Imperial City and other fairy cities were visiting temple fairs. Crowds of people came one after another. There were vendors everywhere selling all kinds of small spiritual things, which was extremely lively.
In the streets and alleys, there are dragon and lion teams dancing.
There are monkey jugglers, jugglers and machetes, and there are people selling powerful pills and dog skin plasters for healing wounds.
There are also ascetics carrying begging bowls and begging for alms along the street.
"There are so many people~!"
"Brother, look over there, there is indeed a monkey trick~!
Yeah! It can also step on two hot wheels and fly into the ring of fire~! ...hurry up and reward it with ten copper coins! "
Nangong Bing'er's face was rosy and excited, and she immediately took some copper plates and threw them into the monkey charmer's copper basin.
Su Chen couldn't help but smile.
Miss Nangong rarely visited a temple fair. She was so happy and seemed to be quite talkative.
...
They were strolling around the streets near Xiaoluo River, wandering around and buying some small snacks to eat.
Suddenly, I saw the front.
There was a stall selling paintings and calligraphy, and a crowd of people surrounded it. There were many young men and rich ladies. Although there were many people, there was no sound.
Everyone gathered around and stared with bated breath, eagerly awaiting. The scene was silent.
“There must be something good in here!
Come on, let's squeeze in and take a look~! "
Su Chen had a sharp eye, and when he saw this posture, he knew that there must be a master of painting and calligraphy selling calligraphy and painting here.
He and Nangong Binger quickly squeezed in.
Sure enough, I saw an elegant middle-aged man in brocade clothes selling paintings. He spread out a foot of rice paper on the desk and started writing and drawing.
He wore a golden Confucian mask on his face, and his face could not be seen.
The middle-aged man has fair and delicate skin on his hands. He is obviously a pampered person. He splashes ink and paints with his pen, and his pen moves like dragons and phoenixes.
In an instant, a beautiful ink painting was drawn.
In the painting, under a peach tree, with withered red flowers, there is an ethereal and charming beauty with rouged cheeks, but she is crying alone.
Afterwards, the elegant middle-aged man stared blankly at the inexplicably sad beauty in his painting for a while, sighing in his heart, and then painted the beauty with cinnabar on her eyebrows. After thinking for a while, he wrote a short poem in the blank space:
["Happy Meeting·The Forest Flowers Withered in Spring"!
The forest flowers have withered their spring reds,
Too hasty!
Helplessly, the cold rain comes in the morning and the wind comes in the evening.
Rouge tears, stay drunk together, how long will it last? Naturally, life grows with hatred, and water grows with the east. 】
Su Chen looked at the crowd and couldn't help but marvel.
Such a painting!
This poem!
This elegant middle-aged man is a top-notch painter and calligrapher. He has a very high level of cultivation in the Painting Sect and the Poetry Sect. He is much higher than Mr. Wang Chan, and is at least the Grandmaster level of the Great Ji Immortal Dynasty.
Who is he?
Why do you need to wear a mask to avoid being recognized, and sell paintings and calligraphy at street fairs to earn a lot of money?
"Dear judges!
This is the last painting and calligraphy for sale today. If you like it, please bid!
After selling this pair, I will close the stall and go back to spend the holidays with my wife. "
The elegant middle-aged man wearing a mask smiled, bowed his hands to everyone, and said.
The crowd around me was fascinated by this calligraphy and painting, and suddenly burst into cheers.
There is no artificiality in this ink painting. The ink is splashed casually and painted spontaneously, and it is completely natural.
"Okay, beautiful pictures of beauties, the most beautiful "Meet Me in Love"!
I'll pay you three hundred taels of black silver! "
"The level of this ink painting is so high, how can it be won with 300 taels! I will pay 500 taels of black silver!"
Many knowledgeable people in the crowd saw the extraordinary quality of this painting and quickly raised their bids.
This painting poem was not inspired by the calligraphy and painting stall owner.
But once you inject spiritual energy into the calligraphy and painting, it will become a painting of spiritual quality.
It can even temporarily transform into a smart beauty with peach blossoms and tears!
Extremely miraculous!
