Wonderful every time you cross

Chapter 42: The Daily Life of Jianghu

"Master, did you lie in public just now? Master called Hong Luan a friend, is this considered a lie?"

"Calculate."

"So the master has never regarded Hongluan as a friend?"

"Yes."

"That's the case. Master hurt me and saved me just now. Let's forget about it. From now on, you and I will be clean. You go back to your Qingyun Mountain and become your monk. Just put me down here. Let go !"

Su Luo struggled desperately regardless of the pain below him, but the man had no intention of letting go at all.

"Song Li broke the precept of meat, lying, and broke the precept of sex last night. How can he still have the face to ascend to the top. If you don't want me anymore, Song Li, the king of heaven and earth, has nowhere to go."

"Okay then. You can follow."

Is this a confession?

Su Luo still can't believe that this serious and smelly monk would show such a pitiful expression as he did back then.

"what happened?"

Song Li just felt that the man was a little absent-minded.He reached out and pulled the man's clothes.

"Does it still hurt there?"

Su Luo now just wants people to arrest this monk who talks nasty in broad daylight.

"It's nothing, I just think that the master can really pretend. When I was a monk, I was pure-hearted, but once I decide to return to the vulgar, the true nature of a secular man will be revealed!"

Song Li is already used to that man's venomous tongue when he is uncomfortable, before he only thought that he was just adding right and wrong, but now thinking about it, he is cute.

He simply held the man's hand.

Song Li's hands are big, and it's easy to wrap Su Luo's hands inside, warm and tight.

And Su Luo was indeed uncomfortable.

Even when he was making girlfriends in the past, he didn't often hold hands with people, he just felt very hypocritical.

This discomfort and discomfort continued all the way until they passed a small town at dusk.

Judging from the tall archway at the entrance of the town, it is a place called Yunshui County.

Strange to say, this small village is located in the Guanzhong area, and it does have the scenery of Jiangnan.

Most of the houses here are built near the water, with black tiles and white walls.In the distance are small stone arch bridges.The ferryman on the river guides the guests from south to north and chats with each other.There are also some idle awning boats floating quietly on the water aimlessly.The layers of ripples on the surface of the river spread out in circles.

In the distance, there is still a waterwheel turning non-stop.

In sight, besides Yangliu is Bibo.

It's already dusk, and the fishing fires are lit, even the red medicine blooming by the bridge sighs the beautiful scenery.

I heard from the locals that all this is due to the Bibo Lake in the town.

It was also a coincidence that today was just in time for their big gathering here, so it was even more crowded and lively.

This big gathering is a rule set down by their ancestors. It is held every six months to worship the Bibo Lake God and pray for good weather and prosperous livestock in the coming year.

The man also said that the lake god has great powers, and that everything he asks for will come true.

Seeing how everyone is worshiping the lake devoutly, maybe it is so.

Su Luo is an atheist, and he always stays away from such strange things, so he doesn't think it's worth offering sacrifices to the lake god.It was the river lantern that made him interested.

The people of Yunshui County put a river lantern in the lake today.

And there is a legend.

It is said that if the river lantern floats to the Huxin Pavilion in the middle of the lake, it will be the first lucky one chosen by the Lake God.His wish will surely come true.

Su Luo sent someone to buy two river lanterns, imitating the locals, wrote silk and stuffed them inside the river lanterns.But he found that Song Li was also so mysterious that he didn't know what to write. He wanted to peek at it, but that person was too stingy, so he let it go.

Waiting for the wind to come, and then let the river lantern slowly swing away, it is happy and carefree, but this person is waiting anxiously.

Su Luo has never been impatient, nor is the little girl in the mood to wait for the result.It didn't take long before he couldn't stay any longer, and he dragged Song Li and said he wanted to leave.

Also strange.

As soon as he told Song Li that he wanted to leave, there was a breeze.The crowd suddenly boiled up, staring at the lake in unison.

Tens of thousands of light spots on the lake float back and forth with the vast expanse of blue waves moving in the wind.

From time to time, there were some exclamations from the crowd, and of course there were also sighs.

Su Luo felt that this seemed to be a grand scene only in the European Cup every summer, and he also became interested in watching the lanterns again.

In fact, the river lanterns that everyone buys are similar in shape and move from time to time, so it is really hard to tell them apart.

Su Luo secretly rejoiced that he really had the foresight, and turned a red dot in the conspicuous place of his river lantern.Only then did I take a closer look.

This position, the direction is just right, as long as the breeze doesn't make trouble, today's lucky one will be me.

Su Luo watched with great interest as the river lantern got closer and closer to the Huxin Pavilion, and the sense of anticipation became stronger and stronger.

It's just that the ignorant wind came uninvited, and he watched his river lantern deviate from the track.

That sense of loss is no less than when the team you support finally has a great chance to shoot and hits the post.

Su Luo's mood was completely lost, and someone behind him exclaimed, "The owner of the river lantern with the red dot is the lucky one selected by the lake god today."

Could it be the legendary banana ball?

Su Luo, who became the lucky one, was almost stunned at that moment. According to his own words, his head was short-circuited.

After a long time, it was accompanied by the envy of the crowd, shouting ecstatically.

Su Luo, who was elected as the lucky one, took Song Li to the market by chance.

Su Luo asked for a little monk at the kneader's stand.I have to say that the stall owner's craftsmanship is really ingenious, the little monk made it so lifelike, even the texture of the little bald head is similar to Song Li's.He couldn't help thinking that this might be Song Li's appearance when he was a child.

Then he brought the monks, one big and one young, to a booth where paintings were displayed.

This is the one he is most familiar with.

When he was a child, Su Luo lived with his grandparents in the countryside.At that time, the whole village watched big plays.Children can't sit still, so they will ask adults for money to buy food.And there must be all kinds of stalls outside the theater.The most lively place is the sugar painting stall.

One dollar is transferred once.

Usually, in this case, the children look at the wheel eagerly, hoping that the pointer will stop at the dragon or phoenix.

It's just that the degree of difficulty is still a bit high.

In short, Su Luo has never been transferred.

I don't know if the Lord Lake God will really bring him good luck.

So, I handed over the money readily, and started to spin the wheel, muttering like a ten-year-old urchin.

Song Li had never seen Bian Hongluan like this.

"Phoenix, big phoenix."

Maybe it was because of Su Luo's relentless muttering, or maybe it was really the God of the Blue Lake, or there might be other reasons, anyway, Su Luo finally took the big phoenix and left contentedly.From time to time, he would show off in front of Song Li with embarrassment.

After that, in order to verify whether it was the lake god who appeared, Su Luo started playing the game of throwing pots again.

In fact, he did not rely on luck in this game of throwing pots. After all, martial arts are not practiced for nothing.As a result, all five arrows hit, and Su Luo got another antique vase.

He has passed the battle all the way, and he has indeed become Ye Shangtian's favorite lucky one.

As for the spoils of war, it was left to Song Li for safekeeping.I only keep the sugar painting of the phoenix in my hand.

There is a feather duster and a few bouquets of flowers on this person-high vase, which is quite artistic.It's just that Song Li really doesn't want to appreciate it!

Walking around all the way, but also to the end.At the end is another archway.

If you want to come and go out, you should leave this town.

At this time, our lucky ones realized that the place to stay tonight has not been found yet.

He wanted to talk to Song Li, but when he turned his head, he bumped into a pile of tree branches.

Fortunately, he dodged in time, otherwise this pretty face would have been disfigured.

Those he hit were not so lucky.He was knocked to the ground directly.

Su Luo stood still and realized that what he bumped into was an old couple.And the pile of branches was the firewood on their backs.

Su Luo can't be called a very good person, but he was very kind to this old grandpa and grandma.

Seeing them fell to the ground, Su Luo immediately stepped forward to check, and it seemed that there was nothing serious.

Just as he was about to reach out to help, he only heard something flying towards his ear. Su Luo dodged to dodge it, and the thing hit the ground with a muffled sound.

is a rock.

When Su Luo was about to go back to check the source of the stone, he saw a few more flying stones falling.

He dodged it by cleverness.But the sugar painting in his hand suffered an indiscriminate disaster.

His other trophies were also more or less damaged.

After finally calming down for a while, Su Luo had a chance to see clearly.It turned out that a group of little kids were throwing stones at them.

Without saying a word, Su Luo went forward and grabbed the leader of a child, but the child cried when he was still alive.

"It's so noisy, why are you crying. What kind of child are you from, and you actually threw stones at your grandparents. Didn't your adults teach you to respect the elderly? Go and apologize to your grandparents."

That little boy had the guts to yell that he would not kill him, and his short legs were still bouncing in the air.

"Let go, my children. Who are you, bullying children is nothing."

The two adults were probably the child's parents, but Su Luo was straightforward and released him immediately.

He wouldn't do the foolish thing of bullying a child.

It's just that the son didn't teach his father.The parents of this child are the ones who really need a lesson.

Just as he was about to go forward, he saw the old man rushing up, standing in front of him and gesticulating something.

Su Luo was upset by him, but he could only come up with one result, the old man was dumb.

"You should be foreigners. It's understandable that you can't get used to standing up for their husband and wife. It's just that they are punished by God. We can't blame us."

It turned out that this town was formed by two villages with two surnames. On weekdays, the well water does not interfere with the river water, and daily communication is still feasible.It's just that there is a rule in the ancestors that these two villages are never allowed to intermarry.And the two ignored the ancestor's precepts and wanted to combine.One was severely punished and became deaf and dumb from then on.But the old woman had her eyes gouged out and became blind.

Everyone in this town was against them being together, even a three-year-old knew it.A deaf and blind old couple lived outside the town. They were punished by God and were the sinners of this town.Therefore, some playful children will throw stones at them, and adults will ignore them, and some will reward them instead.
