As the lanterns lit up and night fell, a bright and beautiful moon could be seen hanging in the sky.
Li Jun then washed her face and changed into a slutty outfit. Seeing that it was about time, he brought Old Cow and Second Brother Qin out to the Yang Family Town's Mid-Autumn Festival.
Just as they were about to leave, Li Jin and the innkeeper Bai Zhan Hall greeted, indicating that they were going out for a while, and might be back later, "I'll be troubling Big Brother Bai, the three of us may be late."
Bai Zhitang smiled, "Little brother, you're going to the Mid-Autumn Festival, right? Don't worry, I'll leave the door open for you tonight."
Li Jun didn't even bother to stand on ceremony. She cupped her hands together and bowed to express her gratitude. Then, she took Old Cow and Second Brother Qin over the threshold and left.
Bai Zhan Tang stood in front of the counter and leaned against the wall, sighing, "It's great to be young. It's a pity that time has already passed and we can only reminisce about the past."
The lanterns on both sides of the street were gleaming, hazy, and chaotic.
As for the ladies in the town, they were all taking advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival to cover their faces and laugh. Their eyes flashed as they looked around.
Li Jun led Old Cow and Second to a vendor near the riverbank, who was selling lanterns. She politely asked, "Little brother, how much are you selling these lanterns for?"
The peddler squeezed through the crowd and answered respectfully, "Dear customer, our lantern is only for sale."
"Oh, may I ask Little Brother, what kind of guess is this?" Li Jin asked with a smile.
The peddler squeezed through the crowd and answered respectfully, "Dear customer, our lantern is only for sale."
"Oh, may I ask Little Brother, what kind of guess is this?" Li Jin asked with a smile.
"Yes, you have guessed the riddle correctly. The lantern to which the riddle belongs shall be given to you. If your guess is wrong, then you will have to pay this lowly one ten gold coins, and if your guess is to leave my hand, then you will be honest with me. "
He had heard of this way of playing before, but had never actually seen it. After all, Gale City was the domain of martial artists; it was even harder for them to guess the riddle of a lamp than a sow climbing a tree.
Since it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Jin could take a good look at it.
Li Jin walked up to a small lantern and unfolded a red paper. Under the light of the lantern, he could see the words written on it. "Jiu Yu Chu Qing, type one word."
Second Brother Qin, who was following behind him, nudged the old cow beside him and whispered, "Young Master seems to be very interested in this sort of thing."
Old Ox rolled his eyes at Old Qin. It's not like I'm the blind young master whose smile is about to spill out.
Well, Old Qin looked down on himself and asked quietly, "Young Master should be able to do it, right?"
The old ox nodded. The young master seemed to have a bit of literary talent. In any case, none of the old scholars in Whistling Wind City didn't wish to see the young master, so he didn't know why.
Old Ox gritted his teeth and whispered to Old Qin, "At most, I, Old Ox, can afford to pay 10 copper coins."
Li Jun then acted as if she didn't hear the words of the two treasures behind her. After thinking for a moment, she replied, "This young man, the answer to this riddle should be yesterday."
The peddler squeezed out from the crowd and answered with a smile, "Congratulations, customer. The mystery behind this is indeed yesterday's' yesterday '. This pocket-sized lantern belongs to you." While he was at it, he used a bamboo pole to remove the lantern and gave it to Li Jin to kill.
Old Cow quickly took the lantern from the vendor and smiled embarrassedly. "Young Master, I didn't expect you to be so powerful."
Second Brother Qin nodded like a little chick pecking rice.
Li Jun gave a faint smile and did not respond to the old cow. After all, it was better to keep a deeper tone when acting tough.
Li Jinzhi turned the corner and walked to where the hawker had placed the most conspicuous lantern. He pulled open the red paper, and on it was written, "Book Incense Sect, type one word."
Li Jun was deep in thought. After a while, her lips curved into a smile. If it was an ordinary person, they wouldn't be able to figure out the answer to this riddle.
"Young man, the answer to this riddle is Mystic."
There was a scholarly man with his head hung low. He almost guessed what was going on. He was the one who said the most, yet someone had actually snatched him away. What a pity.
Beside the scholar, the elegant and elegant young miss from the rich family, who was wearing an enchanting outfit, quickly comforted him, "Big Brother Wei, it's fine if you can't guess. Rong'er isn't someone you have to do. We can go change one."
"This guest is truly amazing. Many arrogant and humble scholars and scholars have been stuck under my ancient lamp riddle for a long time. They have all returned without hesitation. This small shop's best lantern is for you."
The scholar's face immediately turned red. The peddler said he thought highly of himself, but he was just trying to describe himself. He was just about to cover his face and run away.
As for Miss Rong'er, she seemed to have heard the vendor's ridicule towards Brother Wei, and quickly said, "Isn't it just guessing the riddle? It was just a small path, but it couldn't be called a grand hall. My Big Brother Wei is an unparalleled poet. After the woman finished speaking, she proudly held onto the hand of Wei Scholar to show her sovereignty.
His blushing face immediately returned to normal as he thought to himself, "That's right, I'm good at poetry, so why would I be so discouraged by such a small trick like guessing riddles?"
"Rong'er, the Mid-Autumn Festival is about to begin. Let's hurry up and go, wait for big brother to get you the first place in the event."
"Mhmm, Rong'er will listen to big brother Wei. Whatever big brother says is fine." The girl called Miss Zhang was about to stick to the scholar's body.
Feeling the softness from his waist, the scholar was overjoyed. However, he didn't show any signs of unease on his face. After all, he was acting like an elegant gentleman.
The lantern seller looked at the two who had left and spat on the ground. "What bullshit! It doesn't look like a good thing at all. It's a dog-couple."
Then, he seemed to remember Li Jun and the others, "Guests, please do not misunderstand, this humble one is not talking about you."
"Nothing, these two are quite interesting." Li Xin waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about the hawker's rudeness.
The old cow pursed his lips in displeasure, "Little bro is right, they are indeed a pair of dog and dog, and they don't look like they are any good people. You actually dare to look down on our young master and guess riddles, is it not because you're jealous of our young master's literary talent? "
The second brother of the Qin family agreed with Old Ox's words. Why did it come to them as a "small path?" was not surprising.
If he was still in the Windy City at this time, when Second Brother Qin encountered such a person, he would definitely teach him a good lesson.
Li moved under another lantern and was about to open the red paper under the lantern.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the peddler hurriedly cried out, "Customer, customer, please look. This little one is doing a small business and needs to rely on these lanterns to support my family. If you really want to guess, this little one has a good place to go, it's on the three-story boat not far away. Over the years, the Shangguan Family will prepare three ancient lamp mysteries before the Mid-Autumn Festival officially begins. If you can show your face there, the lanterns you get will definitely be much more beautiful than the small lanterns. "
Li Jun stopped and removed her hand from the red paper. He understood the hawker in front of him, after all, he was confident that if he were to continue guessing like he did, the lantern of the hawker in front of him would belong to him.
Li Jun stopped Old Ox who was on the verge of exploding in anger, and walked towards the boat not far away.
"Young Master, why did you stop me? I originally thought that this lantern seller was an open-hearted person, but I never thought that he would actually dare to disturb your elegant mood, Young Master." I really want to teach this dog a lesson, isn't it just some broken lanterns? "He's actually so petty." the old cow said angrily while holding two lanterns.
Ah, old cow. How many times have I told you to use your brain when in trouble? To you and me, it might just be a few tattered lanterns, not worth a lot of money. However, to the hawker, selling lanterns was a form of capital that he needed to support his family. He had never heard of such an old saying before. "Blocking people's money is like killing their parents. It's better if we just give up on the good news. Don't go overboard." "Over the years, he had seen too many people in this mortal world, swaying like a rootless plum. With a light touch, they would vanish like smoke into thin air. They were all ordinary people who had suffered a miserable life.
"Mr. Ox, I think the young master is right this time. Life isn't that easy among the commoners." Second Brother Qin sighed on the side.
After a few days of training, Old Qin suddenly understood some things. These things could not be seen with the eyes, and could only be experienced with the heart. Each of the hundred states of the world had their own taste.
Li Jun muttered to herself, "Life is easy, life is easy, but life is hard."
Old Cow's eyes were wide open. Why are you betraying me so quickly, did you not support me just a second ago? Also, didn't I, Old Cow, still stand up for my young master?
Second Brother Qin's gaze returned to Old Cow. Between you and Young Master, I, Qin, will definitely stand by Young Master's side. Second Brother Qin is Young Master's dog licking.
Li Jun helplessly shook her head. These two treasures were not something that could be calmed in a single day.
After a few hundred steps, Li arrived at the place where the hawker had said he would kill Li.
Looking at the boat before him, the building hung three feet in the air. It was grand and imposing, with pavilions and pavilions carved on all four sides.
Li Jinzhu smiled and was about to step into the boat when he was stopped by the guards. The guards searched him thoroughly before he entered the boat.
Old Cow and Second Brother Qin were also the same. Li Jun then brushed off the dust on her body and tidied up the wrinkles on her clothes.
Looking around, he only saw three gorgeous lanterns hanging in the middle of the colorful lights and exquisite lamps. The brilliance of the lights seemed to split the earth apart from a distance. Numerous lights were scattered across the horizon. The lights connecting the Milky Way were like falling stars. The lights in the center were like the moon hanging in the sky. The scenery around them suddenly turned pale.
