Yuanshin: Before I was buried by Walnut, I opened the coffin and got up

"After a while, the chamber of commerce will hold an auction. I'll help you arrange these ancient books and guarantee a good price!"

Jiang Bai hugged Xingqiu's shoulders and said with a serious face:

"Whether I can become a rich man in Liyue depends on you!"

The corner of Xingqiu's mouth twitched, thinking to rely on a few ancient books to become a rich man in Liyue would be too wishful thinking.

"I'll try my best, but you can't rely on me for the auction fee..."

"Don't worry, I never default on my debts!"

......

In the deep night, the organ crane flew back to Liyue Harbor, and Jiang Bai and Hu Tao jumped down from the sky above the Hall of Rebirth, and flew back to the Hall of Rebirth.

Hu Tao went to Zhongli to brag about the vegetables heated with the fire element, and Jiang Bai watered the sweet flower garden he had just cultivated, and lay on the roof to watch the stars.

The moon and stars are sparse, and the breeze is blowing. This kind of life is really comfortable.

A peaceful life always passes quickly, and Jiang Bai can't feel the passage of time.

[Yeluo returns to the root] The business can't do a few missions a year. He follows Hutao and wanders around like a street sneaker every day. He basically walks around every corner of Liyue Port and the whole territory of Liyue.

It's as big as exorcising ghosts and evil spirits in no way, and as small as arguing with wild cats basking in the sun on the street. Time flies, and before you know it, the Sea Lantern Festival has arrived.

The Sea Lantern Festival is the biggest festival in Liyue.

On the day of the Sea Lantern Festival, people will put Xiaodeng and Mingxiao lanterns in the sky. They believe that the heroic souls who guarded Liyue in the past will return to their hometown under the guidance of the lanterns and reunite with everyone.

Thousands of bright lights symbolize the wish to pass on the torch, and the virtues will not be extinguished.

On this day, Hu Tao got up quite early, and knocked on Jiang Bai's door early in the morning.

She was wearing a new red dress, and she was carrying two bamboos that she had chopped off from nowhere, without even removing the bamboo leaves.

"Wake up! The sun is drying my ass!"

Jiang Bai, who was sleeping in the bed, was woken up. He rubbed his eyes and opened the window. There was no sun, and the sun hadn't come out yet.

Looking at the walnuts that suddenly appeared in the window, Jiang Bai is no longer surprised.

He yawned big, "Morning, Master~"

"Get up quickly, the good time can't be wasted sleeping!"

"Master, how do you learn how to speak like Chongyun?"

Chongyun, that kung fu fanatic, is practicing kung fu all the time.

"Oh, wash up quickly! The hall master is waiting for you to make the sky lantern! This hall mainly makes the biggest sky lantern in Liyue Port!"

In addition to the meaning of commemorating the heroic soul, today's Xiaodeng has also been endowed with more meanings.

People make good wishes and let them fly together with the lanterns.

"Good~"

Jiang Bai put on a new dress and came to the yard. Hu Tao had already laid out the drawings of Xiao Deng on the grass in the yard.

As Hutao said, the sky lantern she wants to make is quite big, so big that Jiang Bai is worried about whether it can fly.

"Because the larger the weight, the heavier it is, so I went to Zhongli's yard and cut down two thin bamboos secretly, and used lighter bamboo strips to support the whole frame..."

Glancing at the corner of the dragon-patterned clothes behind Hu Tao, Jiang Bai carefully reminded, "Master, be careful not to be beaten."

Chapter 191 Oversized Sky Lantern

Hu Tao put his hips on his hips and didn't take it seriously, "This hall master is the hall master, what's wrong with cutting off his two bamboos!"

"Hall Master."

Zhong Li's voice suddenly sounded behind her, and Hu Tao froze.

She stood up with a smile on her face, without the slightest embarrassment of being caught doing something bad.

"It's Ke Qing, why did Ke Qing get up so early?"

"When I heard the sound of chopping bamboo, I got up to have a look, but I didn't think it was the hall master." Zhong Li's eyes fell on the two fresh bamboos on the ground, "The hall master wants my bamboo, so Ke Qing dare not refuse. .”

"However, hall master, I want to go shopping."

"This..." Hu Tao's eyes wandered, and finally fell on Jiang Bai.

Asking Zhongli to go shopping means that she will bleed a lot today, but she was caught first, and if Zhongli doesn't go shopping, there are other ways to make her lose money.

She threw the money bag to Jiang Bai, "Jiang Bai! Accompany Mr. Zhongli to purchase this important task and leave it to you! The budget is limited, don't exceed it."

Jiang Bai weighed the money in his purse, and then compared Zhongli's purchasing power, feeling that this "purchasing" trip was in a panic.

"Okay, let's go shopping! I'm going to make Xiaodeng!" Hu Tao ran away with two bamboos holding the blueprint, leaving only the fallen leaves to circle in the air.

Jiang Bai followed Zhongli out of the gate of the Rebirth Hall. Today's Liyue Port is very lively. Lanterns are hung in front of every house, and colorful silks and satins are hung in the sky above the streets. The cats and puppies all took a bath and were clean.

Pedestrians also put on new clothes one after another, wishing each other a happy Sea Lantern Festival.

"It's so lively." Jiang Bai couldn't help but sigh.

"This should be your first Sea Lantern Festival." Zhong Li walked among the festive crowd with a smile on his lips.

"Yes."

"Liyue's Sea Lantern Festival has a long history, and there are many customs. You don't need to go shopping with me. I don't want to buy anything. Let's go play."

"what?"

Jiang Bai had already made preparations to strictly guard against death, and would never let Zhong Li spend a penny more, but suddenly he didn't buy it?

"Go and play, by the way, Mora give it to me."

Jiang Bai hesitated for a moment, and handed him the Mora that Hutao gave him.

This Mora was originally a walnut for Zhongli, so there were only so many, and it was the same for him.

"What about you, Mr. Zhongli?"

"I'm going to see an old friend, and bring something with me by the way."

Zhong Li looked at Mo La in his purse, and it should be enough to buy a pair of [Lian Li Zhen Xin San].

"Happy Sea Lantern Festival." Zhongli congratulated.

"Happy Sea Lantern Festival!" Jiang Bai waved his hand and watched him walk into the crowd.

There is no need to accompany Zhongli to purchase, Jiang Bai wandered around the city alone, many people greeted him, and he responded one by one.

After buying two sugar figurines, Jiang Bai slipped back to Xiangsheng Hall.

Licking the sugar figurine, he stepped into Hutao's yard, "Master, are you done with your lantern?"

"How can it be so fast!"

Hu Tao raised his head from a pile of bamboo and rice paper, "Why did you come back so soon?"

"Mr. Zhongli said he didn't need me to accompany him, and asked me to give Mo La to him, and then I came back."

Jiang Bai handed her the candy figurine specially made into the shape of a little ghost, "Hall master eats candy."

"I knew it, he was trying to blackmail my Mora on purpose!" Hu Tao crushed the sugar figurine into pieces, and regarded the sugar figurine as someone who spends money lavishly.

One hundred thousand Morayas!How much bamboo is enough for her to buy!

"I don't care, I'm going to cut some more!"

After a while, Hu Tao came back with a bunch of things. In addition to bamboo, there were high-quality inkstones, excellent pine smoke ink, cinnabar paint worth one or two thousand gold, and several different sizes that looked very expensive. brush.

Hu Tao happily put these things aside, and started to build a frame structure with Jiang Bai according to the drawings, and then pasted a layer of lamp paper after the frame was built.

Walnut picked up a pen, drew a beautiful red plum on it, and then stuffed it with a large piece of pumice.

From day to mid-day, after several processes, this huge sky lantern with a height of half a person is finally completed!

Looking at the lantern, Jiang Bai applauded and congratulated, "It's worthy of being the hall master, with ingenuity!"

"Let's put it on first, let's put it on together when it gets dark, it's guaranteed to be the brightest sky lantern in the night sky!"

In addition to setting off sky lanterns, the Sea Lantern Festival also offers sacrifices to heroes and martyrs.

Hu Tao took Jiang Bai to clean the inside and outside of the ancestral hall, burn incense, and place new tributes.

In the evening, after the sun had set, Hu Tao took Jiang Bai to carry the oversized Xiao Lantern he made to Wanmin Hall, and looked at Xiangling with a satisfied look, showing shocking eyes.

"Wow! What a big lantern!"

Xiangling ran into the room and took out her lantern, "Look at the crispy rice lantern I made!"

Xiangling's Xiaodeng has added ears on the basis of Yuanyou, and painted a crusty face, which looks very cute.

"not bad!"

"Let's go, let's find a wide place to go to Xiaodeng together." The two held hands and bounced towards the pier. Jiang Bai and Guoba each held a Xiaodeng and followed behind them.

There are people coming and going on the pier, and everyone is holding the sky lanterns, and only wait for the sky to get darker to let the sky lanterns in their hands rise into the sky together with the huge Mingxiao lanterns.

Vendors of various snacks do not forget to do business during the Sea Lantern Festival, and the aroma of the food is mouth-watering.

The sky was getting darker, but Liyue's lanterns were brighter than the stars in the sky.

Hu Tao and Jiang Bai held onto the corner of the Xiaodeng alone, lest the Xiaodeng fly away before it was set off.

The huge Mingxiao Lantern rose into the sky, and the fairy depicted on it seemed to come alive, flying in the air, drawing a beautiful arc.

This is an immortal who once sacrificed for Liyue, there are too many such senior Liyue.

People raised the sky lanterns in their hands one after another, let go of their hands, and let the sky lanterns in their hands slowly rise into the sky.

The warm yellow flames are flickering in the lights, enshrining good expectations for the coming year, floating in the sky over Liyue Port.

Hu Tao closed her eyes, spoke softly, and wished well.

"May Xiangshengtang get better and better!"

“I hope to learn more recipes next year!”

"Lulu~"

Jiang Bai may make a wish, "May life get better and better."

The sky lantern in his hand slowly rose into the sky, like huge stars rising from the sea.

A child next to him pointed at the big sky lantern and exclaimed, "Mom, what a big sky lantern!"

"We will also make a big one next year!"

At Wangshu Inn, Zhongli and Mandrill stood on the roof of the inn, watching the residents of the inn set off sky lanterns.

Zhong Li asked the person next to him, "Is it okay?"

Mandrill lowered his head, with a respectful expression, "Thank you for the Lianli Zhenxin San, which is much better."

"On the last day of this year, let's set off a sky lantern." Zhong Li took out a sky lantern and handed it to Mandrill.

Mandrill was stunned for a moment, took the Xiao Deng, and let the bright light in his hand fly.

With good wishes entrusted, Xiao Lanterns fill the sky of Liyue.
