The fruit of killing life

Chapter 392 The Unremarkable "August [-]th"

The second day, August thirteenth.

The blue sky and the blue sea stretch as far as the eye can see. On the sandy island with three or five coconut trees growing on the shore, there stands a small and elegant courtyard quietly.

Green bricks and green tiles, white jade paving the ground.

The pavilions, terraces and waterside pavilions are full of vitality accompanied by a few swimming fish and a few lotus leaves; in a corner of the wall, there are seven or eight pruning bamboos and five or six peach blossoms, forming an interesting contrast.

[Luozhu Xiaojing] is the most pleasant sea breeze blowing slightly, shaking the white window screens in the bedroom.

The golden sunlight from the outside, through the half-opened carved glass windows, shines on the exquisite and majestic Qiangongbabu bed in the room.

Huang Wu's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her clear and clean phoenix eyes, facing a pair of eyes staring at her.

Can't help but smile:
"Morning, Xiao Yuan!"

"How early is it, you want to say that last night was true."

Huang Wu, whose face was reddish, lightly took a bite of this incomprehensible villain.

Supporting Wang Yuan's solid chest with both hands, she sat up and stretched lazily, the silver silk quilt slipped off her smooth skin.

The porcelain-white skin with flowing snow, soft round shoulders, and shallow waist are infinitely beautiful, making the bedroom brighten up this morning.

Ever since Master Huang Zhuan condensed the [Dharma Body of Taiyin Mirror], Huang Wu has entered a state between life and death.

Except that she consumes "ghost life" unlike those living people who consume "Yangshou", everything else is the same as that of a living person.

Heartbeat, breathing, body temperature, etc. Even the ability to have children has been restored.

A powerful arm wrapped around the girl's slender waist, sealing her movement of getting up.

With her exclamation, the very rhythmic bell in the bedroom rang again.

"Eh? Wait a minute"

"Don't worry, anyway, the lantern festival won't start until evening, it's still very early.

Rather than wasting time wandering around like a few of them, it is better to seize the time and work hard to improve yourself.

When others practice, we practice; when others play, we practice; when others go shopping, we practice; when others sleep, we practice.
This is the true meaning of 'wearing the stars and wearing the moon'! "

this time.

[Strange · Oil seller] After being killed twice by the Zhengguo Temple led by Lao Hei, he never dared to show his face again.

However, the "people's fat and people's ointment" accumulated by the "Six Desires of the Red World" over more than ten years may still have a surplus.

The [Xiangzhuan] produced by [Liu Desire Red Dust Qi] is enough to supply what is needed.

With this kind of amulet, the personnel of "Wu Sheng Dao" and "Liu Desires of Red Dust Dao" have long since retreated into the imperial city.

The five immortal officials who need to monitor the enemy's movements and are ready to respond to the [Da Si Ming] at any critical moment, dare not leave their posts without authorization.

Just find something to do casually.

Xin Xiaowei felt very sympathetic to those poor people in the city, and walked the streets to teach them the "[-] Ways to Eat Wild Vegetables, Grass Roots, and Bark" that she had summed up.

Guo Feihu and Xin Ruoheng organized a team to find those big gamblers. One was in charge of bad luck, and the other was in charge of beating opponents. They robbed the rich and helped the poor openly.

Yes, they themselves are the poor.

As for Wang Yuan and Huang Wu.
It is not unreasonable to say that a person can be successful.

Master Wang's "heaven and earth odd numbers" qualifications are already outstanding, his family wealth is abundant and resources are abundant, the crowdfunding system has initially taken shape, and he also possesses the Taoism of the Ministry of Heaven.

He practiced day and night, and worked ten times harder than others!
Doesn't this kill them?
Of course, even in his busy schedule, he did not forget to watch the imperial city from afar with "Gods raised three feet up".

Holding the [Amulet Card Garuda] in hand, ready to deal a fatal blow to the demon at any time.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the two of them got up slowly, the boudoir thrushes, squabbled, and walked out of Yun Yuxuan's guest room with the setting sun.

Wang Yuan wears a white jade crown, a royal blue moiré silk shirt, and black boots.

Standing tall and standing tall, the instrument is imposing.

Huang Wu's crystal clear lips were smeared with a little bright red, she wore a pair of phoenix golden steps on her head, bright moon pendants on her earlobes, and a white jade bracelet on Ning Shuanghao's wrist.

Stepping on blue and white embroidered shoes, the girl's figure is more and more graceful as she is dressed in a vine green skirt.

"Hey, the two guest officials are also going to the Lantern Festival? Our capital city hasn't been this lively for a long time. We should go shopping more while we are young. Our store will not be closed tonight."

The fat shopkeeper who was doing accounts behind the counter greeted warmly.

During this period of time, a large number of people from the outskirts of the city flooded into Yunjing, and all available places to live were already full. Yun Yuxuan earned as much money as the past six months in a month.

Even the stall selling "staring food" at the door is booming.

This chubby shopkeeper doesn't care about "comets attacking the moon" or "keeping one's heart in the shadows", making money is the most real thing.

He looks like a Maitreya Buddha to everyone smiling now.

"Thank you, the shopkeeper is really thoughtful."

Wang Yuan thanked him, and glanced at the almanac hanging on the wall behind the other party.

Of course, this is not the old almanac, but just an ordinary almanac.

The old pages had been torn out, leaving only ragged pages.

The latest page that was revealed read:

In the 16th year of Jianming, the thirteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the Ganzhi calendar: the year of Guiwei, the month of Jiyou, the day of Jiazi;

Chongsha: Chongma (Wuwu) Shanan;

Auspicious gods should tend: four phases, Yuede, Tiande, Wangri, Xushi, Baoguang;
Inauspicious gods and taboos: Jiukan, Jiujiao, Yuexing, Tufu, Hour, Chongri, Yuejian, Xueji;
Constellation: Bisu.
【Advisable】: Going out, traveling, worshiping, bathing, crowning, adopting, entering the population, do not take anything else;
【Inauspicious】: Ground breaking, burial, stove making, wedding.

Slightly nodding his head, he is very sure that today is the first day of the three-day Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival, and there are still two days before the big change on August [-]th.

Since there are instructions from [Da Si Ming], there are colleagues in the [Divine Transformation] realm who will arrive in the future.

Their tasks have also changed to staying behind and monitoring, so they are naturally happy to stop and take advantage of the last chance to enjoy the festival.

I know in my heart that after this August [-]th, I am afraid that within a few decades, there will be no such lively celebrations in the entire Chixian Shenzhou.

The two looked at each other and interlocked their fingers, and stepped out of Yunyuxuan's store with light steps.

At a stall selling masks outside the door, they each picked out a tiger mask and a fox mask to wear on their faces, completely blending into the flow of people.

It looks no different from other talented scholars and beautiful ladies who gathered at the Lantern Festival.

Suddenly.

Night has fallen, and a "waving gibbous moon" that is very close to the full moon has risen in the sky

There are also two red stars still hanging far away in the sky, their red light waving like blood-colored battle flags.

"Ah, Xiaoyuan, look! There are people blowing sugar over there, that's a tiger, that's Chang'e, that's Dou Zhanwang
Let's also buy a sugar man to play with. "

Wang Yuan is naturally good at following others.

Burn incense sticks, light lanterns, guess lantern riddles, appreciate osmanthus flowers, and drink osmanthus wine.
The two, who had never participated in such a grand lantern festival, visited all the items.

In the bustling streets and alleys, there was a string of girls' laughter like silver bells.

Before you know it, it's midnight.

Seeing many people gathered by the river, Huang Wu quickly pulled Wang Yuan up:
"They put lanterns in the river, and we go to make a wish too!"

Just because the original origin of the custom of setting off lanterns is untraceable, and the objects of wishing are also varied.

Some people worship the fire god in the lamp, some pay homage to their deceased relatives, some worship the moon god for marriage and harmony, and some worship the river god for peace
The two of them are here to join in the fun, so why not go back and gather relatives and friends for a meeting, and everyone will pay respects to each other.

It's just that when the two of them set off the lanterns, they encountered a small episode unexpectedly.

"Chen Lang, how could you lie to me?!

Didn't you say that you have to study and concentrate on preparing for the exam, and you don't have time to accompany me to the lantern festival?Then who is this woman? ! "

A weak and slender pretty girl who made me feel pitiful, holding a lantern that hadn't been put into the river in one hand.

It is faintly visible that it reads: Qin Ruolan and Chen Niangu get married early, which is obviously the girl's wish.

The other hand firmly grasped the sleeve of a young man, and asked in a mournful voice.

I don't know if it's because of anger or sadness, but the slender shoulders are trembling slightly.

The Juren who was arrested didn't try to defend himself, he just shook off the girl's hand and snorted coldly without any shame:
"Qin Ruolan, I advise you not to mess around here!

The past was the past, when I was just a penniless poor scholar, and you were the hottest red card in Zuixianglou, so it is natural to have face with you.

But this year I have already passed the country test.

How can you be a mere prostitute, worthy of me, the master of juren?
Miss Jiang Miaoyun next to me is the daughter of Tixue Yushi's family, I don't allow you to yell at her like this!Apologize to her quickly! "

hiss!
It's really the first sword to kill the person you like when you go ashore!

As if shocked by his shamelessness, the girl named Qin Ruolan couldn't help taking three steps back, trembling with anger.

He muttered in his mouth, unable to even speak.

A maid who was following her was also extremely angry, she stepped forward and pointed at the heartbroken man's nose and said angrily:
"In the past two years, you have spent on studying, participating in literary conferences, and spending on food and clothing, but all of them were money earned by my young lady who leaned on the building to sell her jokes.

My lady has suffered so much for you, just for the sake of each other, can you, a wolf-hearted scholar, really feel at ease? ! "

Before the unashamed Juren surnamed Chen could speak again, Huang Wu couldn't stand it anymore, rolled up her sleeves, and Liu Mei yelled angrily:
"It's so unreasonable!
Xiaoyuan, when I send this beast in clothes to the 'heart-killing hell', you will teach him to be a man again! "

As she said that, the two bells on the ankles under the skirt were about to explode with a long and furious sound.

however.

clang!clang!clang!
A mighty sound of bells came from far away from the direction of the imperial city first.

This means: the time of the fourteenth of August is coming.

But at the next moment.

Under the golden sun.

On the Qiangong Babu bed, Huang Wu's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her clear and clean phoenix eyes, facing a pair of eyes staring at her.

There is a sweet smile on the corner of the mouth:
"Morning, Xiao Yuan!"
