Chapter 107: Lanterns

85_85978 Night, the stars are scarce.

A city can be seen in the distance, brightly lit, like the only light between heaven and earth.

Looking at the shining city in the distance, Qin Xianyu was silent.

The capital of the Dade Holy Dynasty is really prosperous.

"Supposedly the gates are closed, and they are open in the morning, and it seems that I should have spent the night outside the city. ”

Naturally, people rush during the day and stop at night. Most people reckoned that if they couldn't get into the city before dark, they would rest early and leave the next day.

Qin Xianyu passed by a surrounding city in the evening, and was supposed to stay in the city for the night, and set off on the second day. But the little Taoist priest was a little anxious in his heart, so he ignored it and came straight out of the capital.

He has achieved great cultivation, does not invade by cold and heat, and is not afraid of any fierce birds and beasts in the wild, so he does not have much worry.

After coming out of the Black Wind Mountain, he searched for a day near the village, looking for the fierce beasts that had slipped through the net, but found nothing, so it can be seen that there are no fierce beasts near the village. After Qin Xianyu was relieved, he set off immediately, and it took a few days to come to the capital.

Outside the capital, only feel that the capital of the Great Virtue Holy Dynasty is extremely majestic, the city wall is towering, stretching away, although not seeing the whole picture, but also feel that there is a desolate and vast atmosphere rushing to the face, only this sees, it is more magnificent than the ordinary city.

Qin Xianyu was looking for a place to rest outside the city, but saw a little light floating on the moat.

"What's that?"

Qin Xianyu only felt that the bright light was looming, as if it was nothing.

Along the water of the moat, the light came with the waves, but it was a paper lamp, half a person high, divided into eight layers, layer by layer, all of which were of different flower shapes. The periphery of the flower-shaped paper lamp is lit with candles, and you can see countless candle flames, reflecting the entire half-human-high paper lamp with a transparent light, like jade.

Qin Xianyu was very curious, came to the moat, stopped it casually, and intercepted the paper lamp.

This paper lamp is finely made, covered with white paper on the outside, lit with candles, and made of bamboo sticks on the inside. In the top of the paper flower, a candle is lit with a scorching light, and a note is enclosed under the candle.

Qin Xianyu took out the note, and immediately opened it, only to see a few small characters written on it.

Where to find the avenue?

Qin Xianyu was stunned.

Looking at these five words, it seems to be a woman's handwriting, and then looking at the literal meaning, is this the handwriting of a monk?

Qin Xianyu couldn't help but secretly praise, and said in his heart: "The capital is really a prosperous place, and it seems that a paper lamp is from the hands of cultivators." ”

Just thinking like this, many points of light floated upstream.

These points of light are very faint, but they are extremely numerous, at a glance, there are dozens or hundreds of points, and the flowing water at the upper end seems to be constantly floating down.

Behind them were also paper lamps, but they were all the size of a palm, each in the shape of many different flowers, and all of them were lit with a candle in the middle, and under the candle was a piece of paper with handwriting written on it.

Compared with the half-human-high paper lamp, the rest of the paper lamps are only a candle, the size of a palm, in comparison, the light is weak, but it can't hold a very large number.

Qin Xianyu only felt dense, with countless points of light, which was very dazzling.

The half-human-high paper lamp before was thought to have come from the hand of a cultivator, Qin Xianyu was very curious, and took out a palm-sized paper lamp at the front end, and took out a note from under the candle.

It reads: Xianggong travels far away, his heart is lonely, and I hope that the prince next door will return as soon as possible.

"Uh......" Qin Xianyu was stunned for a long time, thinking that it was still written by a cultivator, but he didn't expect such a paragraph, and after a while, the little Taoist priest suddenly said to himself: "Xianggong traveled far away, why didn't he look forward to Xianggong's return, but to look forward to the return of the prince next door?"

Then he seemed to understand something, and immediately became a little flustered, and with a shake of his hand, he threw the note out.

"Oh, boy, return the note from the Seventh Girl. ”

There were many people running down on the upper side of the river, looking at them in luxurious clothes, and they seemed to be rich sons and descendants of powerful people.

The first boy shouted, "Where's the note?"

Qin Xianyu subconsciously picked up the note he had just thrown down, and then handed it over.

The man only glanced at it, and as if struck by lightning, he took a few steps backwards in disbelief and fell to the ground.

Qin Xianyu could see that this boy seemed to have some martial arts, although he failed to carry qi and blood, but his roots and bones had been boiled, and his footsteps also had some specific steps, obviously he had obtained the true inheritance.

Such a good martial arts boy can't stand?

A few boys in the back rushed up, snatched the note, and circulated it separately. When you see the handwriting on the note, everyone stands still.

"How could it be ......"

"Where did the seven girls come from?"

"Which bastard is the king next door?"

......

Seeing that they were stunned like wooden chickens, all of them were in disbelief, and they felt a great sense of pain, Qin Xianyu was stunned for a long time, and faintly felt that he seemed to have given the wrong note. He looked down at the note in his hand that read "Where to find the avenue", and was a little surprised.

"This lantern is the first to float down, and it is half a person high, it is very special, these boys must have come to find this note. ”

Qin Xianyu hesitated whether to hand over the note in his hand, and told sΓΉ that this group of grief-stricken sons was actually a misunderstanding, but after looking at the flowing water above, there were paper lamps floating down, and there were many sons with many of their own domestic servants and thugs, rushing down, with the meaning of grabbing the paper lamps.

Looking at such a battle, Qin Xianyu thought to himself that more things are better than less things, looking at this posture, it must be that the first lantern that floated down before was extremely special, and there was a scene of these sons chasing each other.

Taking advantage of the fact that these sons in front of him were stunned for a long time and had not come back to their senses, Qin Xianyu had already crossed the moat and walked directly towards the city.

By this time the gates had been opened.

"No, the seventh girl is not married yet, and this note is not the seventh girl's. ”

"That damn little Taoist, dare to trick me?"

"The Seventh Girl's note must have been hidden by him!"

Several sons came back to their senses and scolded one after another, but when they turned their heads, the little Taoist priest had disappeared.

Some cautious ones followed the river and went to look for the big lantern, while a few of them were angry and summoned some family members to trouble the little Taoist priest.

Qin Xianyu entered the city gate, turned his head to look at the moat, only wiped his sweat, and secretly said that it was dangerous.

At this moment, a halberd landed in front of him and stopped him.

One of the soldiers shouted, "You Taoist priest, where did you come from? ”

The document is the proof of identity and the certificate of customs clearance and entry into the city.

Where did Qin Xianyu get any documents, but he knew some personnel rules, and stuffed a few silver coins over.

The soldier glanced at the money, and let it go on weekdays, but the times were different recently, and he shook his hand and shouted, "What are you doing?

Qin Xianyu frowned slightly.

PS: It's a little bit of a bad taste, and so far, I'm generally very happy with the book
