"Let's go, I'll wait to enter the city..." Xiao Hua waved at the already set sunset.

This big city is the capital of Tongzhu Kingdom, so the questioning is naturally strict. When the four people arrived at the city gate, they were blocked by the soldiers guarding the city gate. This Tongzhu Kingdom was built by Confucianism and did not respect Taoism. Xiao Jian was sweating profusely when asked. Fortunately, his official documents were normal, and everything in Xi Kingdom was normal. After spending some money, he still entered the city gate smoothly.

As soon as I entered the city gate, the excitement in front of me was different from that outside the city gate.

Beyond the city gate, there is just the countryside, with the simplicity seen by ordinary Xiao Hua and others. When entering the city gate, it also looks like some villages and some rivers, but whether it is people's clothes or temperament, they are different from outside the city, especially the smoke in these villages is not the same as outside the city, except for a few places, there is no fireworks in many places.

On the side of these rivers, many children, led by adults, were excited to hold some small fist-sized lamps and throw them into the water randomly, wanting to watch these small lamps flow down the river. Unfortunately, most of these shoddy things sank to the bottom of the water just after they were touched, causing the children to scream.

"These are all manors of the rich families of the Tongzhu Kingdom in the suburbs!" Looking at Xiao Hua's eyes on the mountain villages everywhere, Xiao Jian said lightly, "They hold a lot of wealth and want a leisurely life in the countryside, but they cannot really move outside the city. Even other towns will draw lands as a farm at the edge of the capital and live the life they want."

After riding a horse for half an hour, the road under my feet was replaced by bluestone slabs. The trees on both sides were also neatly formed, and lanterns were hanging on the trees in the night. From a distance, they looked like twinkling stars.

Looking at the surrounding buildings, they are also tall. These seemingly magnificent buildings are famous shops in the capital. Now they are decorated with lights and doors, and many people are unconsciously entering while walking on the road.

With too many people, Xiao Hua and others naturally could not ride a horse. Liu Yi cleverly took Xiao Hua's reins and walked behind Yuanya with the horse.

Seeing an inn next to him, many people stayed there, but Xiao Jian only took a look and walked by, without any stop. Xiao Hua thought he had a lot of people here. However, he passed several more. Xiao Jian didn't even look at it. Xiao Hua was surprised and asked, "Xiao Jian, it's too late today. Xiao doesn't need to rest. You have to stay there! Don't you find an inn?"

"Haha, I'm afraid I don't know if I have never walked into the world for a long time. If it's an ordinary day, I can go to the shop. But today is the Zhongyuan Festival, a festival for secular people, and a sacrificial sacrifice for my Taoist sacrificialism. Since we are Taoist disciples, we should go to the Taoist temple to hold orders and cannot spend the night outside the Taoist temple!" Xiao Jian said with a wry smile.

"Okay..." Xiao Hua didn't expect that the Dao Sect, which had already fallen, had so many rules, so he had to nod. But then, seeing that there were too many people, Xiao Jian began to inquire, but when he saw the Taoist robe on Xiao Jian's body, these people seemed to have seen flies and hurriedly avoided them, not giving Xiao Jian a chance to speak.

"Master Xiao, let's go young!" Liu Yi looked at it for a moment and said in a low voice.

"Yeah!" After hearing Xiao Jian's agreement, Liu Yi handed over the reins of the horse to Yuanya, and disappeared into the crowd in a flash. It was only half a cup of tea. Liu Yi had already returned and pointed his hand in front and said, "Master, there is Xiluo Ridge two miles ahead, with a Qiyang Temple on it!"

Then he walked to Xiao Hua again and said respectfully: "Master Xiao, I just found out that there happened to be a bidding party tonight, right in Mingyuefang, which is not too far from Qiyang Temple. But it is still early now, are you going to Qiyang Temple or Mingyuefang?"

Xiao Hua was overjoyed and smiled and said, "Since Xiao is also a Taoist disciple, then go to Qiyang Temple first. It's not too late to go to Mingyuefang after you have to hold the order!"

"Okay, I'll lead the way!" Liu Yi took the reins from Yuanya's hand and walked to the front. He had just turned a few streets. Xiao Hua's eyes lit up. There was a huge garden suddenly appear between the tall buildings! And there were many people around Xiao Hua. Not only did some men and women pour in behind Xiao Hua, but there were obviously other streets in other directions of the garden to connect, and there were also more people coming from those places.

"Okay..." A noise came from the crowd in front of him. Then, a lotus lantern of one foot size rose slowly from the crowd. The lotus lantern looked very delicate. Whether it was the lotus leaves at the bottom or the petals painted around the lampshade, they were all vivid. Moreover, these petals trembled slightly under the lights, just like they were blooming in buds!

However, the lotus lantern had just flew out more than ten feet high, and another voice shouted: "Today is the Zhongyuan Festival. This lotus lantern should be better to follow the water! Although this flying in the air is beautiful, it is not consistent with etiquette! Moreover, foreign objects are strictly prohibited from flying in the capital of my Copper Pillar Kingdom. If the lotus roar is flying high, it will probably be set up by the bow and arrow of the Imperial Guard. Everyone feels sorry for this cute lotus? Let it go home quickly!"

"Okay!" Everyone shouted in unison, with a smile and an expectation in their voices.

"Buzz..." But when the sound of the sword sounded, a red sword light rushed into the air, hitting the lotus lantern. Cleverly, the sword light hooked slightly and actually brought the lotus lantern back. As the lotus lantern fell in front of everyone, a loud cheer sounded in the stream.

"Haha, my neighbors, many students of my Tongzhu Academy are studying here, and I have been disturbing you a lot. Today is the Zhongyuan Festival, the day when the hundred ghosts travel, and it is also the time for us to commemorate our ancestors. There is nothing to give to everyone for our students. Let me give the finishing touch of this lotus lantern to my students! Although our cultivation is not very profound, the lotus lantern after this finishing touch can bring you all your thoughts to your relatives in Jiuquan, and the lotus lantern with the finishing touch can also be easily despised by all evils!"

"Okay~" a delicate girl said with a touch of her hand, "I heard that Mr. Jiang's word "生正" is the most important thing to gain the righteousness of heaven and earth, and it is the most effective way to avoid evil. I specially found this place from a hundred miles away. I also asked the word "官网"

Xiao Hua and others had already walked closer when they heard the sound, but they saw that this was a half-acre garden with Xuanxi, a small bridge, and a corridor stream. Many green vines hang on Xuanxi and the corridor. Although it was already the hot summer in July, the hot wind at night was much cooler. In particular, the vines were a bunch of purple flowers, the size of soybeans, and the faint fragrance was wafting in the wind, which was really intoxicating.

At this time, dozens of men and women were surrounded by a pavilion. The pavilion was surrounded by flowing water, and the sound of water was gurgling. Several white-clothed scholars stood inside the pavilion and next to the steps of the pavilion. The middle-aged scholar was speaking. The scholar stood in front of the steps, with two beards on the corner of his mouth slightly upturned, and seemed to be smiling at any time. Although the two eyebrows that matched the beard were not particularly slender, they were very dark. The eyes looked ordinary, but the eyes in the eyes were also lit.

Deep, the eyes were captured by this look. The scholar was holding a brush in his hand, which was as thick as a baby's arm and more than one foot long. The tip of the brush was covered with thick red ink, which looked a little dazzling. However, this was not the main thing. The main thing was that the scholar stood there, a speechless temperament covered the entire pavilion, and the scholar was tall and stood straight there. Although he was holding a pen in his hand, it looked sharper than a flying sword!

"Thank you for your love!" The scholar smiled before he could speak, and his dark eyes spread out, which made a woman on the opposite corridor flush on her face. "Please bring the girl's lotus lantern, and Jiang will give you the finishing touch!"

"Hehe..." Before the girl could speak, the friends of the girls next to her had already pushed the girl in front. The scholar waved his hand, and the lotus lantern in the girl's hand seemed to be taken by an invisible hand and slowly fell into the scholar's hand.

"Okay..." Immediately, a lot of people who were good at it shouted loudly.

"Get up..." The scholar pointed his hand at the lotus lantern, and the light immediately flew out of his hand. As the light of the lotus lantern illuminated the surroundings again, the scholar raised the ink pen in his hand, took strange steps, and recited: "The heaven and earth have righteous energy, mixed with manifolds. The lower part is the river and the upper part is the sun and the upper part is the sun. It is called Haoran, and the vastness of the cliff. The imperial road should be clear and free, and the imperial court is lingered!!!"

With this passionate recitation, the scholar's body emitted a red light, and the light shone with the scholar's steps, and finally slowly fell on the scholar's ink pen. But after hearing the scholar's final "Tu Mingting!", the red light between the ink pens was magnificent. It was at the moment when the ink pens flashed, the scholar landed the pen on the lotus lantern. The light covered the light, and the light was exposed again. A scarlet "Wen" word appeared on the lotus lantern!

The word "wen" is such a golden hook and silver painting, and each stroke is like a sharp sword, and an unconcealable sword intent emerges from this word!!!

"Okay..." The girl couldn't help but stroking her hands and applaud.

"Miss, please put this lotus lantern away. If you miss your loved ones, you can put the lamp into the stream with your own hands?" The scholar surnamed Jiang took his ink pen and said with a smile, "When the door of heaven and earth is opened at the end of the spring, the person you miss will see it and will send a dream to you!"

ps: The night of the Zhongyuan Festival of the Copper Pillar Kingdom is very long, and it is also a transformation for Xiao Hua and an opportunity to enter the ranks of monks... (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
