Swordsman’s Road Chapter 21: June Lantern Festival


  一, cultivation Although high above, nothing is ethereal, but with mortal world But it’s not completely free, such as Zhong Fa Guardian Shuang City , Fairy Yun Sit city-west Chang, it’s just that if ordinary people don’t have enough level cultivation Missed.

  Second, North Domain major cities have Gate Sect Xianzong guard, or can be said to control, such as Qixia to Xichang, New Moon to Shenfang, but generally as small as Shuang City, but only daoist resident, but no Daoist Temple income Yes, but Nan Chi Country must have Xianzong asylum, I don’t know which one.

  Three, Zhong Fa once said that he is too old, and now it seems that it is not an excuse. The best age in this world is cultivate Dao entered the Gate. When it is between 13-15, after three years of learning, choose the best one to join blessed land sensing Qi. That is to say, before the age of 18, a mortal can determine whether he can entering the Dao in this life. Li Ji is already 21 years old when crossing, according to this model path, I am afraid that 24, 5 have a chance to enter blessed land sensing Qi, this difficulty is not ordinary.

Based on the above judgment, the opportunity given by Zhong Fa Old Daoist is to skip the three-year learning stage of Daoist Temple and enter blessed land sensing Qi directly. . . Although it saves one hundred and two gold, but compared with these Dao Child, it takes three years less time to lay the foundation, it can be described as losing at the starting line. . . But he couldn't refuse this opportunity because he didn't even have the qualifications to lay the foundation.

   figured out this joint, Li Ji also knows more clearly where he is going. Going to Shenfang City and going to Daybreak Moon Monastery, whether it is stepping into longevity Great Dao or falling into the world, it depends on the bet.

   Since the knot is open, Li Ji is still hanging around. He found that Xichang City has become more and more lively these days. After a little inquiries, the traditional June Lantern Festival of Zheng Guo is approaching. The Lantern Festival of Lantern Festival in the previous life of Li Ji is in January and February. There is also a Lantern Festival in this world, but it is in midsummer in June.

  Zheng Guo's June Lantern Festival is a festival with women as the main body, as if it were the 3rd and 8th Women's Day in the previous life, but it is far more grand and grand than the 3rd and 8th Festival. Perhaps the Perching Sunset Faction asylum that has been dominated by women for thousands of years has a high status in Zheng Guo. The Lantern Festival in June is also called Jijie, and it takes the meaning of adulthood. Every girl who is 15 years old or older can put a lampshade on her own, and look forward to the poets who can leave poetry .

   Beauty and poetry, no matter which Space-Time, is a perfect match. Zheng Guo's original writing style is very strong, and together with the June Lantern Festival, it is really consistent and well-known. In June, countless scholars from around will come together, both for the prosperity and the expectation of romance.

   It is the dream of every girl to get a popular masterpiece at the June Lantern Festival. Therefore, in addition to their own beauty, they also make the lampshade as beautiful as possible. Gifts to attract talented scholars to mention poems and ink, after all, in the poems, good works are never encountered but unquestionable. Xichang is the richest city in Zheng Guo. There are many noble girls in the city. The gifts are also increasing year by year. The talents from all over the world are flocked here, and many scholars in other cities have also heard about it. To show literary talent, but also to get the benefits, maybe even return to beauty. Of course, such festivals are basically dominated by wealthy people. For ordinary people, if you want to rent a light shed on Jiangdi Lamp Street and then put out beautiful decorative lanterns, there are not dozens of silver that cannot come .

   Li Ji has been in Xichang for three days, and it will be held for three days in the evening of the Lantern Festival in the evening of the following day. This kind of grand occasion that can understand foreign cultures is impossible for him to miss.

  The time passed by in a hurry. On the sixth day of June, the Lantern Festival officially began. The sky was not completely dark, and a large number of people began to rush out of the city. The embankment of the Qingcang River outside the city has a length of ten miles. It is lined with green willows along the embankment. It is wide and straight. A color shed has been set up to welcome this annual event.

  Li Ji slowly went to the embankment after dinner at Laohu Yangfang. At this time, it was completely dark, but under the illumination of the lanterns, the embankment was brighter than the day, the moon, and under the countless lanterns. Eclipsed. There were more people than he had imagined, as if all the people in Xichang were crowded here, and the ten-foot wide causeway could not hold people's enthusiasm. He thought that among these tourists, most of them were literati men, but he didn't want to admire the lanterns. There were many young girls, which opened his eyes.

There are dozens of river embankments in the tens of thousands of dynasties. The organizers are scattered around each other. It seems that the organizers have been experienced for many years. Some of the lamp sheds are larger, the lanterns are extravagant, some are smaller, and the lanterns are not very expensive, but more, but there are no lamp sheds, only one or more colorful or plain, or a flower or beast's lantern stand, standing behind With the excitement and shyness of young girls, rich and poor, even in this festive festival for the whole people, they are everywhere highlighting their differences. But the girls have something in common, they are all pretty and charming, and they want to come to the long ugly ones, and they have no courage to put lanterns on them. If no one mentions the poems, they will lose face.

   walked by a large lampshade, surrounded by a large group of people, someone was writing a poem. Li Ji glanced over to see that the young lady here is probably a flower lover. There are dozens of lanterns in the shed with all kinds of flowers. The prize is a walnut-sized night pearl, and the value may not be close to 1000 silver.

   Generally speaking, the scholars will give poems according to the girls’ hobbies, such as this one who is writing,'Cai sleeves are diligently holding the jade clock, but they were drunk and red, dancing low willow tree embraced the heart moon, singing Fan fan wind. ’

   Shizi mentions poems, and the lampshade is equipped with pen and ink. The ingenious thing is that there are spotlights under the rule. If someone mentions poems, the poems will be projected by the light on a large, deep cloth that is erected on the side. It can be seen within ten feet of the surrounding area. As soon as the poem was written, the crowd watching the crowd was full of applause.

Fairly speaking, this poem is very well written. For Jing Yingren, the poem is prosperous and reveals a freshness, which is really a good work. In the gaze of the crowd of onlookers and the look of the gentleman looking forward, the ladies in the shed hesitated. Now is the first day of the Lantern Festival in June, the event has just begun, and now the poem is set on the curtain, it is undoubtedly that the famous poem has a master, and in the future, who will provide poems for her? Maybe, there will be better poems waiting for her in the future? The little girl is a bit greedy and does not want to give up this apparently good poem, so she is uncertain.

  Li Ji shook his head next to him. He was a man of two lives~IndoMTL.com~ had some experience in grasping people's hearts. At first glance, this girl was born in the early ages. Do you know that a bird in hand is better than a hundred birds in a forest? The poems and poems are fate-oriented and won if you like it, otherwise you may not be happy in the future.

   Everyone outside the shed saw that she was unwilling to express her attitude, and she was more excited. Some women shouted vaguely, "Throw bamboo, throw bamboo..." For a time, the sound became louder and the emotions were intense, and the crowd watched both men and women. Shouted, "Throw bamboo, throw bamboo..."

  Li Ji was puzzled, and he grabbed the scholar beside him and asked, "Xiongtai, what do you mean by throwing bamboo?"

   Shizi was excitedly watching a crowd of women shouting, impatiently saying, "When you look at Ru, you are a foreigner, and you don't even know how to throw bamboo. In June, the Lantern Festival has countless poems. The hands of the Lord? It’s okay for them to take up the masterpieces, but the others who are not worth seeing are self-determined by everyone in the field..."

  Li Ji is waiting to ask how this self-defeating poem is self-determined, but sees the noble girl in the shed, probably with a young face, a noble identity but no excitement. In the bamboo tube, he threw his hand into the crowd, and suddenly it was like boiling oil dripping, and dozens of young little miss around me scrambled to grab it. Fortunately, the woman was weak and no one was injured. In the end, a red dress little miss grabbed The bamboo tube went happily. Many men who were on the sidelines didn't stretch out their hands, only cheering on the sidelines.

  Li Ji Da Le, he was still wondering why many of the cardamom girls in the crowd were originally ordinary daughters. They couldn’t afford a lantern and couldn’t afford a lantern, and wanted to have their own adult. Poetry, then came together. The eyes of the noble girls are high, and non-high grade masterpieces are not eye-catching. Many abandoned poems have become their prey. For example, that red clothes little miss, without spending a penny, but got a good poem. This Lantern Festival is very different from what Li Ji thought, but it is getting more and more interesting.
