Versatile Mage - Chaos Administrator

Chapter 214 Taishan Festival

"Where did you go after you left Longjiang?"

Lin Xi and Lu stood side by side on the rooftop. The skyline in the distance seemed to meet the tall buildings of the city, but there were a few more unexpected steel structures in the vast sky.

"After leaving Longjiang, I walked around Northern Xinjiang, then circled back to the ancient capital, and then returned to Songcheng from the ancient capital, and finally came to Qilu."

The deer described his experience bit by bit in a relaxed and leisurely tone.

Including the blood beasts attacking the city encountered in Northern Xinjiang, the tide of undead in the ancient capital, and even indirectly participating in the Black Snake incident in Song City.

Lin Xi opened her mouth slightly, not knowing what to say.

This kind of experience is neither rich nor free. It is simply a template for the protagonist!

In comparison, she seemed much more restrained, and a hint of envy arose in Lin Xi's heart.

"That's great..." He muttered quietly.

"It's so good. I almost died outside several times and almost couldn't come back! I finally came back to take a rest, and I was dragged over by Sister Ma to do cool labor. I never thought I'd run into you again!"

Lu stretched out his hand and patted Lin Xi hard on the back to relieve his anger.

"Speaking of which, you are so rich now that you can even book such a soul species. Tell me, what did you do after that?"

The taller woman climbed to the edge of the rooftop, turned around, opened her arms against the wind, and let the high-altitude wind blow through her windbreaker, making a sound.

There was a faint blush on her cheeks, and a cheerful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She seemed to enjoy the feeling of walking on the edge of life and death.

Lin Xi blinked and said hesitantly: "I actually have nothing to say."

He didn't know why, but after hearing Lu's experience, he always felt that compared to her, he felt like the worst Ninja at the class reunion.

Just, I’m sorry...

In the end, Lin Xi briefly talked about her own experience, but of course the details about [the punishment] were omitted.

The two of them were like old classmates they hadn't seen for a long time, chatting on the windswept rooftop until sunset and night fell.

"Bang!!!"

A gorgeous firework exploded in the deep night, followed by the second, third...

The night sky without stars seems to have been decorated with new stars by humans, and the sound of cannons corresponds to the gorgeous fireworks rising into the sky.

"What is this doing?"

Lin Xi stood on the edge of the rooftop and asked the deer beside her.

The deer was sitting on the edge of the rooftop, with the busy highway below. She leaned back slightly with her hands on the ground, her bright eyes reflecting the fireworks in the sky: "This is the appetizer for the Taishan Festival!"

"Taishan Festival?" Lin Xi asked, he had never heard of such a thing.

"Most people in the land of Qilu believe in a god, a imaginary god. It is said that he lives on Mount Tai. Every year on this day, he will walk around the world in his incarnation and enjoy himself with the people!"

"Perhaps she did exist in the distant ancient times, but we don't know now."

"But this custom has been passed down, and people in Qilu have made it a common practice. It has the same nature as the Spring Festival."

"Fireworks like this will be set off for three or four days, so we have to seize the opportunity to go up the mountain!"

For those who don't know, the deer's words are just an interesting legend.

But for insiders, it's a different experience, such as Lin Xi.

"The God of Mount Tai... could he be a totem?"

The deer seemed to hear Lin Xi's muttering and turned around: "I'm not sure either. In fact, I've looked for it several times and found nothing. The Yin Fish didn't respond, so it shouldn't be the case."

The deer turned around and jumped down from the edge of the rooftop. He patted the wrinkled beige windbreaker and pulled Lin Xi: "Don't think about it so much. Let's go into the mountains and have a look together in a few days."

Lin Xi shook her head. She had no clue and simply stopped thinking about it.

"Let's go, Boss Lin. Why are you still standing there? The fireworks are over!" Lu urged from the front. Lin Xi glanced at Lu and suddenly thought of something: "Let me ask you a question!"

"What?" The confused deer turned his head

, looked at Lin Xi.

"What's your real name?" Lin Xi spread his hands and looked at the deer seriously.

"We have known each other for such a long time, and we have lived and died together. It is so insincere to keep using fake names!"

"Haha, it's as if you didn't use a pseudonym, Mr. Meng Meng!" Lu stomped her little feet in low heels and glared at Lin Xi angrily.

"We both use pseudonyms, so let's call it even. Now that you know my name, it's not too much for me to ask yours!"

Lin Xi used the skill she learned from Mo Fan - being shameless!Outstanding effect!

"Deer of deer, deer of elk, dawn of dawn!"

The deer turned around helplessly, wrapped his windbreaker tightly around him and walked into the stairwell.

"Lu Li...what a name!"

Lin Xi recited something softly, then nodded with satisfaction and followed briskly.

……

……

On the verge of the Taishan Festival that Lu Li mentioned, Tai'an City became increasingly lively.

Walking on the street, you can see tangible teams everywhere, ferocious masks of Nuo gods, children running around and helpless parents following them, and there is a festive atmosphere everywhere.

"The candied haws you want!"

Lin Xi handed Lu Li a bunch of red candied haws filled with crystal syrup.

The woman happily took it, thanked her, and started eating it in small bites, like a child.

"You are so old, why do you still like to run around eating like this?" Lin Xi raised his head and took a sip of Coke and asked.

"Don't you also like Coca-Cola? How about candied haws on a stick?" Lu Li gave him a charming eye roll and continued:
"If you like something, why should you distinguish it by age? If you like it, you just like it. I can continue to like it."

"Even if I become a toothless old woman, I still like to eat candied haws. Do I need a reason?"

"No need, because I just like it!"

"Oh, the reason why you turned into a toothless old woman is because you always eat candied haws!"

Lin Xi mocked, and received a heavy blow on her calf.

……

……

The two of them continued to wander in the lively parade. Anyway, it was idle. There was still some time before the mountain climbing day, but it was better to relax.

Lu Li was picking out trinkets, while Lin Xi was scrolling through her phone boredly.

Suddenly a chill ran down his spine, and his keen mental power sensed an inexplicable hostility.

He looked intuitively and saw a vague black figure disappearing into the alley.

He was about to catch up when Lu Li pulled him and put a bracelet on his wrist: "See if it fits."

"That guy is hiding, pretend not to notice him for now!"

Lin Xi understood it and seemed to be picking up accessories with Lu Li, but in fact he was carefully observing every corner.

However, it is really difficult to catch a stranger in such a noisy environment.
