Chapter 7 Taoyuan Festival

As the most important annual festival in Taoyuan Town, the Taoyuan Festival is even more important than the New Year.

Jiang Youning rubbed her eyes with her hands again, still unable to believe what she saw.

She just took a nap, and Taoyuan Town has undergone such earth-shaking changes.

People were coming and going on the street, the crowds were surging, and there were sounds of shouting and selling everywhere. It was very lively. Now she believed that Taoyuan Town was a city.

After leaving the room and going to the dining area downstairs, he grabbed the busy waiter and asked, "Is your Taoyuan Town so lively every year during the Taoyuan Festival?"

The waiter wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied with a smile: "Of course, the Taoyuan Festival in our Taoyuan Town is famous in the whole Qingyan Kingdom. It's your first time to participate, so it's not a big deal. In the next two days, there may be even more people.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter was called away by other people. At this time of year, all the shops in Taoyuan Town can make a lot of money.

Looking at the smiles on everyone's faces outside, Jiang Youning couldn't help being infected by the cheerful atmosphere.

She approached the crowd without any purpose, because the crowd would take her to her destination.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, a huge high platform appeared in front of her.

Ascending to Gaotao, a peach tree with withered peach tree appeared in front of her.

"Didn't it mean that the peach tree has disappeared, why is there still a peach tree here?"

And it was still withered. At this time, the trunk of the peach tree was full of red blessing bags for blessings.

When Jiang Youning came near the peach tree, a man dressed as a Taoist stood in front of her, pointed to the various red lucky bags on his body and said, "Little girl, buy one, as long as you write down your wishes Stuff the paper into the lucky bag, then hang the lucky bag on the tree, and your wish will come true in a short time.”

After listening to the Taoist priest's words, Jiang Youning immediately understood why the peach trees were covered with blessing bags.

"Will any wish come true?" Jiang Youning asked, blinking her big eyes.

Faced with such clear eyes, the Taoist priest swallowed, and couldn't even speak.

After a long time, the corner of his mouth forced a smile again and said: "That's natural, as long as your heart is strong enough, your wish will definitely come true."

In the end, Jiang Youning was deceived by the Taoist priest and bought what was said to be the most beautiful lucky bag in his hand for a high price of twenty mystical coins.

Before leaving, the Taoist suddenly said to Jiang Youning in a meaningful tone: "Little girl, if you want your wish to come true, try to hang your lucky bag on a high place so that the Peach Blossom God can be the first I see your wish."

Hearing this, Jiang Youning nodded seriously and said, "Thank you for reminding me."

Jiang Youning took out a pen and paper, and after thinking about it for a while, wrote down her wish on the paper, then folded the note and stuffed it into the lucky bag.

At this moment, Jiang Youning suddenly felt someone pat her on the shoulder.

Jiang Youning turned around suspiciously, only to see a round little face appearing in front of her.

With a round little face and a pair of round eyes, the person who came was about the same age as her, and she was a cute-looking little girl.

"May I borrow a pen and paper?" the little girl said with some embarrassment.

Jiang Youning was stunned for a moment, then handed over the pen and paper in her hand, "Take it and use it."

"Thank you." The little girl thanked her with rosy cheeks. Then she quickly wrote down her wishes with pen and paper and put them carefully into the lucky bag.

After doing all this, the little girl returned the pen and paper to Jiang Youning.

"Thank you this time. My name is Xia Xuxu. How about you?"

"My name is Jiangyouning."

"You Ning, thank you so much this time." Xia Xuxu said very familiarly.

"Is it really effective to make a wish here?" Jiang Youning saw that Xia Xuxu was also here to make a wish, so she asked.

"Of course." Xia Xuxu nodded heavily and continued, "But not everyone's wish will come true. Every year, Peach Blossom Fairy will draw a few lucky ones from all the wishers, and then fulfill them wish."

"I got up late when I made my wish last year. This time, I must hang the lucky bag on the highest place so that Peach Blossom Fairy will be the first to notice me." Xia Xuxu said firmly.

Seeing Xia Xuxu say this, Jiang Youning also asked her doubts, "Hasn't the Peach Blossom Fairy already left? Why would he still fulfill his wish?"

"Is this your first time attending the Taoyuan Festival?"

"Yeah." Jiang Youning nodded.

"No wonder." Xia Xuxu showed a clear expression, and then explained: "This Peach Blossom Fairy is not the other Peach Blossom Fairy. After the first Peach Blossom Fairy left, the people here replanted a peach tree, and It is the one on the altar that has been enshrined for generations."

Jiang Youning followed her gaze and saw the peach tree that was already covered with lucky bags.

At this moment, a fragile branch broke suddenly because it couldn't bear the weight of the lucky bag, and even the lucky bag hanging on it fell to the ground, covering it with dust.

Everyone who saw this scene screamed in surprise. Several panicked girls ran out of the crowd. They each picked up the dusty lucky bags on the ground and stood there in a daze, with tears in their eyes.

"If the lucky bag falls, it's a big deal and just hang it up again. Why are you crying?" Jiang Youning looked at this scene with some confusion.

In her opinion, the closer the branch is to the end, the weaker it is. In this case, there are still people who insist on hanging the lucky bag on it. It's no wonder that nothing happens.

Xia Xuxu patiently explained to Jiang Youning: "Not everyone can come here to make a wish. They must be teenage girls, and everyone can only hang a lucky bag once. If the lucky bag cannot land, Then I can’t hang it up.”

Hearing her explanation, Jiang Youning suddenly realized, no wonder all she saw here were young girls, at first she thought it was because the adults didn't believe it.

Xia Xuxu took Jiangyouning to the other side of the peach tree, where there was a strangely shaped stone.

"I discovered this by accident. As long as we stand on the stone, we can easily hang the lucky bag to a high place."

It’s just that the imagination is very full, but the reality is very skinny. The surface of the stone has been extremely smooth due to years of wind, sun, and rain. It is very difficult for ordinary people to climb up, not to mention standing on it.
