"That's why you asked me to come out," Yun Shuhua smiled, "Then let's go up and talk."

Hearing this, Jiang Shuwan nodded vigorously, pulled his sleeves into the teahouse, and said loudly, "Please ask the store to find a private room for us, preferably one with a view."

"Please, two gentlemen," the waiter of the teahouse led the two of them upstairs and took their seats, and said as they walked, "Business is good during the Lantern Festival, and the seats on the second floor are almost fully booked. Fortunately, the young master came in time."

Jiang Shuwan followed the clerk into the room, walked quickly to the open-air railing and looked down. After confirming that the view here was excellent, he took out a piece of silver and threw it to Xiao Er, saying, "Thank you."

"Hey, thank you, my lord. This guest officer is also welcome to take a seat. I will serve you some refreshments here."

After the clerk trotted away, Yun Shuhua followed and stood still in front of Jiang Shuwan.

"Where did you get all this money?"

Jiang Shuwan blinked at him: "Where did it come from? Naturally, it was deducted from my old savings."

As soon as he heard this, Yun Shuhua couldn't help knocking on his arm, and persuaded him: "I said you should save some money. We are not the same as before, but we don't want to spend as much as we used to. Prepare some money for everything, so that you will be safe .”

"Shuhua is right," Jiang Shuwan listened to Yun Shuhua's instructions, and he was very pleased, so he took out a bag of purses from his front and threw them in his hand, begging for a laugh, "Put the money here. I have to spend recklessly, how about Shuhua managing the money for me?"

"Who cares about your money? I can't manage my own money." Yun Shuhua quickly stuffed the money back, "I don't want it, you take it."

"You take care of it for me, I don't worry," Jiang Shuwan took his hand and patted it, persuading him, "Besides, I also have some status on Luoqi Mountain. If I am promoted to a senior disciple in the future, maybe I can get more many……"

"and many more."

Yun Shuhua withdrew his hand and interrupted him: "What do you think you have in Luoqi Mountain?"

"Huh?" Jiang Shuwan didn't know why, "There are rules."

"..."

"The example you mentioned refers to ordinary daily necessities such as clothes and candles?" Yun Shuhua asked tentatively, with a hint of imperceptible tension in his tone.

"...Of course there are these, but most of them are arranged by the servant boy, and the money is regularly distributed on weekdays," Jiang Shuwan corrected, and then carefully looked at Yun Shuhua's sinking face, " Shuhua, what's wrong with you?"

"Could it be that Qingwu Mountain won't give you money?"

Yun Shuhua closed his eyes with a headache.

"That thing is in Qingwu, so it's really not very useful."

Jiang Shuwan laughed for a while, and criticized seriously: "It's unreasonable, how come Qingwu Mountain didn't even give it its due share? Fortunately, Jing Fan is still a recognized immortal in the lower world, so he can make omissions in these matters. , is a bit too much!"

The boy's cadenced voice followed the night wind into the bustling street, and Shen Tangli, sitting next to him a few curtains away from the tea room, was making tea with a teapot.

"Jing Xianzun, I didn't expect you to have such an omission, and let others catch it."

Shen Tangli smiled and pushed the warm teacup in front of Jing Fan: "Master Xianzun, please."

Jing Fan on the seat supported his forehead with one hand, and held the jade bi with the other, with his eyes closed, and his fingertips rubbing it once and for all, as if he was taking a nap.

Shen Tangli didn't expose him, and poured himself another cup by the handle of the teapot, holding it in his hand and slowly sipping.

The conversation of the boy next door continued, and the sound was heard.

"Okay, don't talk about my master, he is very busy on weekdays, so he can't take care of these."

Yun Shuhua's muffled voice sounded.

"If you don't say it, don't say it, look at this."

Jiang Shuwan took out a string of jade wind chime pendants from his sleeve, and shook them in front of Yun Shuhua's eyes. The warm jade clattered when they touched each other, which immediately attracted his attention.

"What is this?" Yun Shuhua took it from his hand, put it in his palm and looked at it.

"This thing can send a message. I spent all my time searching for all kinds of rare treasures and finally found someone to make it," Jiang Shuwan said, and took out a bunch of identical ones from himself, "You and me one by one, if you If you encounter any danger, or are bullied by someone in Qingwu Mountain, crush one of them to transmit sound to me, and I can sense your news anytime, anywhere."

"It's so amazing?" Yun Shuhua stared slightly, "If you use up all of these, then you won't be able to get in touch..."

"It doesn't matter, just find someone to make a new one when the time comes," Jiang Shuwan raised his eyebrows, "Hurry up and wear it on your body for me to see."

Yun Shuhua held the warm jade pendant, hesitating a little.

The figure in the white robe with lotus pattern flashed in his mind, as well as the jade bibi that he never forgot to carry with him all the time.

Thinking about that thing was extremely important to him, otherwise when the two met for the first time, they would have almost killed him with a sword because the piece of jade fell to the ground.

Yun Shuhua thought for a while, and thought to himself, what's so great, he also has jade now.

Thinking of this, he tied this bunch of wind chime jade pendants on his waistband, and said: "I'm going out tonight to change into regular clothes, so it's not suitable to hang on my waist. Location."

Jiang Shuwan showed a satisfied smile.

The two teenagers leaned over the railing and continued chatting for a while, and suddenly thousands of lights went out on the street, paving ten miles of red.

"The lantern festival is about to start."

As soon as the words were finished, gorgeous fireworks were released from the fields connected to the moat in the distance, and bright lights lit up the dark night sky, turning the gathered thick clouds blue.

"Would you like to go down for a stroll?" Jiang Shuwan suggested in a low voice with anticipation in his eyes.

It was cloudy tonight and there were no stars, so there should be nothing interesting to do except to put the sky lanterns on. Yun Shuhua thought for a moment and agreed.

The two went downstairs to pay the bill, and walked into the crowded street together.

"They left, Yuemo went to the Lantern Festival."

Shen Tangli put down the teacup, sat up straight and said, "Jing Xianzun has a very good temper today."

After being belittled by that brat, even the apprentice was let go, and he was able to sit here calmly while watching people leave.

"If Master Xianzun doesn't go again, your little apprentice will be abducted by our Central Territory's Shu Wan." Shen Tangli said with a smile.

Jing Fan slowly opened his eyes, his starry eyes were deep, like a cold pool of water with no bottom.

He put down the hand supporting his forehead, and his black hair slid down from his shoulders and neck and spread out behind his back.

"Those people around Xiaohua, find an opportunity to get rid of them."

Shen Tangli's movements paused slightly: "It's better to make it tonight."

"It's up to you." Jing Fan stood up, raised the curtain and walked outside, step by step down the stairs.

Even though it was night, the city was still lit up with thousands of lights. People in neighborhoods and alleys gathered in small groups to buy from street stalls. Many shops with high platforms held activities such as poetry competition and martial arts competition, and invited people to participate.

In the midst of singing and dancing, young men and women wearing hairpins and dressed up, inviting each other to the open fire lantern festival by the river. Everyone's faces were filled with fiery red light and showed sweet smiles.

Yun Shuhua and Jiang Shu wandered for a while and then separated, feeling more and more uncomfortable being alone in such a sweet atmosphere, so they quickly walked a few steps away from the high platform where they were fighting poetry, and when they were about to leave, they saw A young man in brocade clothes holding a folding fan stepped forward, bowed to everyone, and said: "I am showing my ugliness. Today, I will take advantage of the festive season and write a poem with the theme of the river lantern."

After listening for a long while, he was sure that he had no talent in this area, so he rubbed his temples and continued walking eastward on the street.

There was the sound of gongs and drums from far to near, and Yun Shuhua tiptoed curiously to have a look. It turned out that a temporary group of people in the city was performing a lion dance.

The lion dance team circled a few times in front of the vendors selling sky lanterns, attracting a large crowd of people to watch, and then walked away with the beat of drums.

"Young master, the night wind is just right tonight, do you want to light a sky lantern and make a wish?"

The street vendor saw that under the lights, Yun Shuhua's red lips and white teeth were not like ordinary people, so he boldly stepped forward and asked a question carefully.

"Making a wish?" Yun Shuhua pointed at himself, "Is the boss talking about me?"

"Of course, the young master is suave, but he hasn't shown his face yet. Why don't you draw your thoughts on the sky lantern, and you don't have to worry about it after you let it fly."

Even though it sounded illogical, Yun Shuhua couldn't help but smiled and said, "In that case, please bring me one."

The vendor owner quickly handed over a freshly pasted paper lantern behind him.

"Excuse me, how much does this lamp cost? If I make a wish, where will I cast it?"

"Young master, this is a small business for me, and I only need two copper coins from you," the vendor owner Yang pointed to the city river where sky lanterns were flying not far away, "Just go to the riverside after you finish the painting, there The wind will fly away with the sky lantern, if you can't see your shadow, all your wishes will come true in one fell swoop."

Yun Shuhua took out the copper plate from his body and threw it to him, then took the lantern with his left hand, and said with a smile, "Thank you, boss, for reminding me."

He walked to an unoccupied shelf and stood there, waved the thin sky lantern in front of his eyes a few times with one hand, then took out a pencil that was almost used up from his front pocket, and lightly tried to write on it .

Perhaps it was due to the special material, the lead powder could not leave any writing on the lantern, and Yun Shuhua was afraid that one of his subordinates would pierce the lantern with force, so several attempts were in vain.

He went to the vendor again to borrow a writing brush, but the vendor owner was busy soliciting other business and ignored him.

Yun Shuhua held the pen in his right hand, dipped it in the ink, and thought about what to write.

After thinking for a long time to no avail, it is better to draw a picture.

I decided to draw a lotus flower.

He lightly touched the pen tip on the lantern paper, and the black ink smudged as soon as he touched it, forming a large mass of thick black color, which shocked him.

Yun Shuhua drew half of the flower with trembling hands, but he couldn't draw the rest.

Surrounded by music, talking and laughing in the street, no one paid attention to the young man's embarrassing expression at the moment.

While hesitating, he suddenly saw a slender and beautiful hand stretching out from the right side, gently grasping Yun Shuhua's hand, and walking up with the lake pen, the left hand led him to squeeze the skeleton of the paper lantern tightly In an instant, half a lifelike lotus was drawn.

The faint fragrance of lotus was lingering, and Jing Fan spoke in a low voice beside his ear.

"Drawing a lotus flower is not difficult, Xiaohua must study hard."

Yun Shuhua heard the man's voice behind him, pinching the lantern paper nervously with his fingers.

I don't know if it's because of the red lights on the street, but a blush crept up on his cheeks.
