One Sword Ling Han

Lantern Festival.

The Lantern Festival in Qingzhou City has been held three or four times a year since Qingzhou City was established. The main reason is that mortals and low-level monks in the city like to be lively.

Low-level monks mainly refer to monks in the realm of Qi refining and foundation building, and their life span is only a little better than that of ordinary mortals.Many monks who feel hopeless in their cultivation will spend their entire lives in cities like Qingzhou City.

They like this more lively, and hope that the short life will be meaningful. Various festivals and lantern festivals are their happiest time.

And a practitioner's practice is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.It is necessary to comply with the destiny, but also to compete with the destiny to seek one's own detachment. In the spare time of cultivation, practitioners will also try some fireworks in the world, and experience it in this world of mortals.

As for how Chu Linghan knew that there was a lantern festival in Qingzhou City tonight, it was naturally that she asked her junior sister who was proficient in eating, drinking and having fun.

There are lanterns hanging everywhere above the head and on the streets, including ordinary rabbits, carp, butterflies, lotus lanterns, and all kinds of rarer animal lanterns. Chu Linghan even saw a cute panda lantern.

The warm yellow light warms up the city, people walk in it, there are all kinds of cries from the roadside stalls, and the bustling voices of people.

This was the first time in Chu Linghan's memory that she had been to a place with so many people, and she could indeed feel the atmosphere of the red dust and fireworks when walking in it.

There were too many people at the lantern festival, she held Liuli with one hand, and stretched out the other hand to wrap Wuyou in her arms.

"Be careful."

"I'm fine." Ye Wenqing shook her head.

They passed a stall selling lanterns. The lanterns on this stall were all kinds of birds, ranging from a kingfisher lantern that could fit in the palm of your hand, to a large one placed beside it that wouldn’t listen to the rotation, making it look like it was about to fly. the phoenix bird.

Some of these lanterns have candles, while others are carved out of spar, with runes that can emit light drawn on them.

Chu Linghan looked at both Liuli and Wuyou carefully, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and said, "Since we are visiting the Lantern Festival, why not buy a lantern to suit the occasion."

"Shopkeeper, we want these two lamps." Chu Linghan pointed to the lamps that had been stared at by a large and a small one for a long time.

"Okay." The shopkeeper said, and took down the peacock lantern, and saw the little girl next to the guest happily reaching out to him, wanting to take the lantern.

With a smile on his face, the shopkeeper said, "Your daughter is so cute."

Liuli was holding the peacock lantern that was about half the length of her arm, her originally happy expression was slightly startled, and then she smiled again, "Uncle, you are mistaken, I am Master's apprentice, not Master's daughter."

The shopkeeper's expression was slightly embarrassed, "That's really embarrassing."

Liuli shook her head, indicating that she didn't mind, then turned around and said to Master with a smile, "Thank you, Master, I like this very much."

When getting along with Master, Liuli knows that sometimes it is more appropriate to accept than to reject Master's kindness.Her thinking is also very simple, the master treats her well, and she will treat the master better in the future.

"As long as you like it." Chu Linghan hummed and picked up the lotus lantern.

When Ye Wenqing stopped talking to Chu Linghan, he saw that he had already paid for the spirit stone, and handed the lamp to her, "Why give it to me?"

It was a very ordinary lantern, a lotus lantern that could be seen in every booth, but the color of the crimson spar lotus lantern was a bit rare, and I only saw one lantern after walking through so many booths.

"If you like it, I will give it to you."

Ye Wenqing looked at the lotus lantern in his hand, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

In addition to selling lanterns at the lantern festival, there were also lantern riddle guessers. Chu Linghan was not interested in this, but seeing Liuli was interested, he guessed along with her for a while.

But Wuyou and Liuli were mainly guessing.

Ye Wenqing had a great time playing, it had been many years since the last time I visited the Lantern Festival.That lantern festival was far less grand than the one in front of her, but now she is still with that person, and she is satisfied.

Chu Linghan saw the seller of candied haws, reached out and took out a piece of silver to buy two bunches, and then caught up with the two people in front of him.

Liuli looked at the candied haws she handed over, and smiled so hard that her eyes crooked, "Ah, it's candied haws. Master, how do you know that I want to eat this?"

Of course Chu Linghan wouldn't say it, she noticed that Liuli was staring at the children's candied haws on the road for a long time.

"Eat it." Chu Linghan said, and handed another one to Wuyou, "Do you want to try it? I think you will like it."

When she bought it, she wanted to buy two by accident.

The bright red hawthorn is drenched in transparent syrup, and some sesame seeds are sprinkled on it, which looks very exciting.

Chu Linghan noticed that Wuyou always had a faint smile on his face tonight, the smile was faint but real.It seems that inviting her to come to the lantern festival is not wrong.

Ye Wenqing followed the thought in his heart and took the candied haws over.She took a bite of the hawthorn, and the sweet and sour taste spread on the tip of her tongue.

Chu Linghan said, "Is it delicious?"

Ye Wenqing nodded and noticed that her hands were empty, "Didn't you buy it for yourself?"

Speaking of this, Ye Wenqing seemed to think of something, and said: "I almost forgot, you don't like to eat these, you used to be like this."

Chu Linghan has no impression of what she said, but he doesn't want to hinder his rare happiness so far because of those unhappy things.

"You can eat it. By the way, do you like jujube cake? I think it's for sale."

There were too many people around, Liuli, who was looking around, blinked and ran to Master, "Cake, what cake? Master, I want to eat Yunpian Cake."

Chu Linghan couldn't help laughing, and tapped Liuli's forehead, "It's jujube cake, you have to look for cloud cake."

The women in the crowd had let go of the shackles of their respective identities, and it was rare for them to feel relaxed. Chu Linghan let go of his indifference to outsiders in front of them.

This is closer to her own character.

——No one can be ruthless to the family members he likes, so even though the external image of "Chu Linghan" was somewhat destroyed, the system did not issue a warning.

Passing by a wonton stand.

Ye Wenqing stopped Chu Linghan, "Wait."

Hearing this, Chu Linghan stopped and turned around, "Huh? Are you hungry?"

Ye Wenqing: "I'm tired after walking all the way."

The three of them sat down at the wonton stand, and after a while, a bowl of wonton was placed in front of each of them.

Chu Linghan looked at the wontons in front of him, and at Ye Wuyou who was stirring the wontons in the bowl with a spoon, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "Wuyou, are you reciprocating courtesy?"

She paused when she saw Wuyou's movements, and then said, "Would you like to eat or not."

The voice was still the same as before, but the tone sounded a little distressed, and Chu Linghan couldn't help laughing thinking about it.

But she also knew that it would be over if she laughed out loud.

While they were talking, Liuli was fighting with the chili pot beside him, pouring chili spoonful after spoonful into the wonton bowl until the bowl of wonton turned from pale white to red.

She pulled Shaojun's sleeve with a smile and asked, "Shaojun, do you want it?"

Chu Linghan, who doesn't like spicy food very much, looked at the bowl in front of Liuli, saw her smiling harmlessly, and the veins on her forehead twitched involuntarily.

This kid is too ignorant of restraint.

Ye Wenqing said, "Okay."

……

Chu Linghan looked at the two eating spicy wontons with relish, and looked down at his clear soup wontons, deeply feeling that he was out of tune with Wuyou and Liuli.

It seems that I ate too lightly.

"Liuli, don't you think it's spicy?"

Liuli shook her head, and said with a simple face: "It's not spicy, Master, I think the dishes you cooked last time were quite spicy."

After eating wontons, the group of three continued shopping, and after a while, Chu Linghan bought a lot of food.Most of them are glazed, and a small part is worry-free.

"Master, master, I want candied green plums." Liuli clapped her hands and turned to her after eating what she was holding, and then brought a plum to her mouth.

"Master, you eat too."

Chu Linghan smiled, and lowered her head to accept the feeding from her apprentice. The sweet and sour green plums made her frown slightly.

Ye Wenqing turned her head to look at her, "You don't like to eat, why bother..."

"It's not that I don't like it, but it's not that I can't accept it." Chu Linghan handed over the candied chestnuts in his hand, "What the apprentice gave is naturally different."

Ye Wenqing took the paper bag of sugar-fried chestnuts, and found that the chestnuts inside had been peeled off at some point, leaving only the light yellow flesh of the chestnuts, exuding an aroma.

Don't think about it, you know that only one person will do it.

Ye Wenqing picked up a chestnut and handed it to his mouth, "Eat it."

Chu Linghan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, "Of course."

Liuli didn't spend much time by her master's side tonight, but she didn't run far, keeping herself in the master's sight all the time.If I run too far, Master and Shaojun will be worried.

at this time.

Liuli squatted in front of a stall, looking at several water basins cut out of stones, filled with clear water.

There are many fish swimming in the water. There are many fish in each basin, and the colors of the fish are also different. The only thing in common is that these fish are all beautiful.

Silver, gold, and other colors.

"what is this?"

The stall owner saw her, came over to greet her, and said, "Little girl, do you want to fish for goldfish? Ordinary two coins for one time, ten yuan for spirit fish and three times for low-grade spirit stones."

"The goldfish you catch can be taken away."

Liuli looked at the spirit fish beside them, some of them looked like carp, but their whiskers were longer than ordinary carp, and the scales on their body were also more beautiful than ordinary carp.

"These fish are beautiful."

"It looks good. These spirit fish are specially caught from Banyue Lake, and each one is beautiful. It is very good to watch or cook when raised."

The stall saw that Liuli was dressed in good things, so he kept persuading her to give it a try.

"Would you like to try it? Maybe you can catch good quality fish. These spirit fish have a chance to transform into monsters. If you get lucky, you might become spirit beasts."

Liuli untied the exquisite purse at her waist, inside the purse embroidered with orchid grass was a storage bag, and inside the storage bag were the spirit stones and silver taels given by the master.

Speaking of spirit beasts, she remembered how she went out with her master today and left Xiaohu alone in Wangchen Peak.She thought she should bring something back to the little fox, the fox should eat fish, right?

Liuli thought a little uncertainly.

"Then let me fish for it." She counted out ten low-grade spirit stones, planning to try them out.

The biggest spirit fish in the basin was no more than half the length of her palm, and if she brought it back to Xiaohu, she might have to raise it for a while before she could eat it.

Well, anyway, Xiaohu usually eats and drinks, so he shouldn't mind this gift that can only be eaten after a while.

The net bag is made of paper, so be careful when fishing.When Liuli stretched out the net bag, she found that the spiritual power in the water basin seemed to be imprisoned, and she couldn't use it.

Liuli, who had never played fishing games before, went straight to the street when she couldn't use her spiritual power.

"so hard."

Liuli pursed her mouth, she felt sorry for her ten spirit stones that were in vain, even if they were given by the master, they can't be ruined like that.

"Hahaha, little girl, it's the first time for you to play and you can't master your strength. You'll be fine if you play more." The stall owner pointed to those who were fishing next to him, many of whom were adult monks, "Look, they just caught fish what?"

The price of an ordinary juvenile spirit fish fry is about four or five low-grade spirit stones. Here, they are all grown up. As long as you can catch one, it will be your money back.

It is also because of this that so many monks come to fish.

However, in the case of not being able to use spiritual power, catching fish really can only rely on skill and luck.

Spirit fish are only fished by monks, and ordinary people cannot afford the price.There were quite a few children around the ordinary fish basin, Liuli stared at the spirit fish for a while, and then at the ordinary goldfish and koi.

With a final sigh, she might as well try ordinary fish.It is said that everything depends on its owner, Xiaohu is definitely not picky about food like himself, spirit fish is still an ordinary fish, and they are used to eat anyway.

"Give me fifty cents first."

Compared with spirit stones, copper plates are much cheaper.One spirit stone can be exchanged for hundreds of taels.Thinking about it that way, Liuli suddenly felt that she was prodigal just now.

Liuli began to struggle with the pot of fish, and the children from the ordinary people nearby who had never seen this scene gathered around her with curiosity and envy.

When Chu Linghan and the others approached, they saw a man squatting in front of the water basin, rolling up his sleeves and constantly fishing the fish in the basin with paper nets.

At Liuli's feet, there was already a pile of worn out paper net bags, and a small wooden box with a little water and two fish in it.

A group of fish swam around in the water, even if they were picked up, they quickly broke the paper net under the thumping and fell back into the water.

The temperament of the two of them was too outstanding, even if they didn't say anything, just standing behind Liuli, they were enough to attract attention.

The stall owner had noticed them early in the morning, but he didn't know what they wanted to do, and was looking at their cultivation that he couldn't see through.After hesitating for a while, he decided it was better not to rush forward.

Chu Linghan looked at the fish in the basin. These fish had a very thin trace of aura on their bodies, which could not be felt unless they were not careful.Although it was not as full of aura as the spirit fish next to it, it was still better than ordinary fish.

Liuli didn't notice the master standing behind her, and she caught up with the fish in front of her.One of them, in particular, was so cunning that it escaped from her several times.

Ye Wenqing originally wanted to be born as Liuli, but saw Chu Linghan beside him raised his index finger to his lips to signal him not to speak yet.She felt a little strange and didn't understand what he wanted to do.

Following Chu Linghan's gaze, he landed on a carp flicking its tail in the water basin.

Liuli's net was running with the carp, and San Er Yi quickly entered the water and picked up the carp that was no more than half the length of a palm.

The carp was about to struggle, when suddenly its body froze, and it took only a few seconds for it to lose the chance to escape.It was thrown into a small space next to two silly fish spitting bubbles.

"Yeah! I finally caught it. Let's see how you run this time." Liuli stretched out her finger to poke the skinny carp, but said with great strength: "When I get back, let the little fox swallow it in one gulp." you."

A hand landed on her head, accompanied by a sentence, "Have you played enough?"

Liuli turned around happily, "Master."

Chu Linghan asked: "This is for Qinghu."

"Well, leave the little fox alone, and want to bring it some gifts."

The little koi, which was spitting bubbles in the wooden box, stretched its body and began to turn white. I wonder if it was because of the food on the plate that it scared me.

Although Ye Wenqing didn't understand what was going on, she also understood what Chu Linghan must have done just now. She said in a casual tone: "There are only three, less."

"Since you want to give it to Qinghu, let's buy them all."

Liuli looked at the water basins with at least dozens of them, scratched her chin, "I bought all of them, but there are so many of them here."

Chu Linghan said: "If there are many, just keep them in the lotus pond."

So that night, when Chu Linghan and the others left Qingzhou City, there was an extra pot of fish on the Yunchuan boat.

Wangchen Peak.

Liuli took the water basin to look for Qinghu, touched Qinghu who was a little depressed because he didn't go out together, and comforted Qinghu who was a little unhappy.

Standing in the yard, Chu Linghan said to Wuyou, "It's getting late, go to bed earlier."

"You too." Ye Wenqing looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and said again: "I am very happy tonight, thank you."

Chu Linghan suppressed the corners of his mouth that were about to turn up, "Me too."

Seeing that Wuyou turned and left, she walked to Liuli's side, "Okay, it's time for you to rest, and we'll deal with it tomorrow morning."

"Understood, Master." Liuli responded, hugging Qinghu, "Xiaohu, let's go, let's take a bath and then sleep."

"Wait until tomorrow to see them."

Cave House.

study.

Chu Linghan walked around twice, but she was still in a good mood. She went to the desk and spread the rice paper, picked up a pen and wrote down the carefree appearance during the meeting and lantern festival, and carefully traced it with the pen.

[Host, you can still draw? 】

"I've always been able to, you're not the most clear about this." Chu Linghan absently replied to the system, changed to a colored brush, dipped some red paint, blended it and then dropped it on the paper.

At the beginning, the task of learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting was issued by the system, and it was nicknamed "Chu Linghan".

One can imagine how painful it is for Chu Linghan, who has never even touched a brush, not only to learn to write, but also to learn to draw.She has dabbled in flowers and birds, landscapes, and figures. Danqing is the best painting among them, but it is also Danqing that she does not want to paint.

In order to learn how to draw an excellent Danqing, you have been painting uninterruptedly for more than 30 years?An average of two pictures per day, I almost vomited.

The system kept silent. It knew that the host didn't like painting back then, but it was only because of the task that it had to bite the bullet and learn.

Ye Wuyou, she changed the host, it seems that the host really likes her.Thinking about it, the system felt a little sympathetic to the host, the road of love was a bit too bumpy.

An hour later.

Chu Linghan put away the pen, raised his hand and picked up the painting with a flick.

It was a picture, the background was the lantern festival and the flower market, and a woman in red was walking among the crowd.Just looking at the angle of view on the painting, it can be seen that there is actually another person in the painting.

The wide white sleeves exposed in the corner of the painting prove this point.

Well, if you pay more attention, you will see a small goose-yellow figure standing on tiptoe reaching for the lantern in the distance in front of the man in red.

This is really a picture of three people, but I don't have a model name—Chu Linghan looked at the painting in her hand, and she didn't remember Liuli until after she drew it.

[Host, are you going to sleep tonight? 】

After hearing this, Chu Linghan was silent for a while and said, "Is the situation permitting?"

【Can. 】

"Then let's dream about it, I also want to know..." Chu Linghan didn't say anything, and the rest of the unfinished words, I'm afraid only she knows what it is.

……

The attack of cold poison was fierce. After Ye Wenqing survived, she looked at the radiant lotus lantern at hand. She once had a lotus lantern that was very similar to this one, but it was more delicate than this one.

She reached out and touched the lotus petals of the lotus lamp. That lamp was engraved with phoenix patterns, but this one did not.

"You obviously don't know anything, but you seem to want to repeat what happened in the past. In the end... Do you really not remember, or even if you don't remember, you still abide by the agreement."

This night, the only one who slept the best was Liuli who had no troubles at all.

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Wenqing woke up early and sat up. She frowned and wondered why she had dreamed about it again.

This is the second time recently.

In the hundreds of years after Ling Ye's death, Ye Wenqing never dreamed of Ling Ye once, and she still thought that maybe Ling Ye didn't want to see her.Now that he knew that Ling Ye was doing well, at least better than he thought, this dream appeared suddenly.

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Wenqing didn't think of the reason.In the end, after much deliberation, it can only be concluded that Chu Linghan is always by his side, and that's why he has dreams every day... dreams at night.

Of course, on the surface, she would never admit that she "missed" Chu Linghan.

On the other side, Chu Linghan was still suffering from the side effects of waking up from a dream, and she was thinking about what she saw in the dream last night.

"It turns out that Wuyou stared at the lamp because I gave her a similar lamp in the past..." Chu Linghan sat up muttering to herself, she thought Wuyou just wanted a lamp.

She thought of the lamp she bought at the lantern festival, and raised her hand to cover her eyes. The lamp was actually not the same as the one she gave Wuyou in the past except for its appearance.

"Maybe I can make another one..." Chu Linghan thought so, jumped out of bed and walked to the side to draw the lamp that he saw in his dream.

She decided that she would make a similar one and give it to Wuyou.

Chu Linghan first went to the Lingwu Pavilion in the door, and then turned to the Medicine Pavilion to prepare some elixir that Wuyou needed.When she looked back at Chenfeng again, she happened to see a disciple handing a letter to Wuyou.

There was a hint of doubt in her tone, "This is?"
