“Azi, are you okay?”

“We have to hurry up, otherwise it will be too late.”

“Azi, Azi—— ”

Lin Feng changed from his usual plain attire, wearing a small overlapping amber and goose-yellow shirt, underneath a long emerald butterfly skirt, with a soft gauze dotted with many small ornaments tied around his waist, and a small and delicate comb. The double-ringed snake bun is tied with a long rope of pearls.

He held an elegant small round fan in his hand.

From time to time I would look into the room and say a few words of encouragement.

Inside the house, Yu Zi coyly poked her head out.

He hesitated and said: "Is this okay?"

Lin Feng grabbed Yu Zi's hand and dragged her out, saying at the same time: "Why not? This is fine. Okay.”

She grew up so fast.

In line with the good habit of frugality, I took apart all the old clothes and re-patched them. The materials of those clothes were all good materials. They were the luggage that Lin Feng brought from his hometown. Some of them were not good. Changes are all done at the bottom of the box.

But Yu Zi was thin and small, so she dressed appropriately.

Today's Fu Gu Festival, the two of them picked and selected the best ones, which would not conflict with the joy or violate the taboo of observing filial piety. Lin Feng's teacher, Chu Yao, reserved a spot for them. It's just that the two of them were so busy that they forgot the time and were in a hurry to go out.

“I don’t know if I can catch up yet——”

Lin Feng ignored his manners and lifted up his skirt to jog.

Outside the door, two accompanying guards had prepared a carriage drawn by two smaller horses.

Yu Zi sat down, sweat breaking out on her forehead.

Reproaching oneself: "It's my fault for forgetting the time..."

Lin Feng said: "Didn't I forget it too?"

If you want to blame, it's both of them, you can't blame anyone alone.

She opened the curtain, and there were few people on both sides of the road, but they were all heading in the same direction - the main venue for the "First Fuku City New Year Games", which is the southwest corner of Fukuu . After dark, the opening ceremony will take place there.

Lin Feng originally didn’t want to come out for activities.

After all, we are still in the period of filial piety, so entertainment should be restrained.

It’s just that the teacher told her in a slightly mysterious way that she could make an exception today and go out to have some fun. If she missed this night, she might regret it for the rest of her life. Lin Feng hesitated for a long time, then followed Yu Zi out. She planned to go back after watching the opening ceremony hosted by Lang Jun.

Yu Zi hugged two matzas and murmured worriedly.

"It won't start now, right?"

Lin Feng shook his head: "The time should not have arrived yet."

The so-called main venue is actually a small venue In the huge open space next to the city, the common people were notified in advance that they had better bring mats, futons, mats and other objects so that they could sit on the ground to rest and watch tonight's grand performance.

Common people don’t quite understand this notice.

What are you sitting on the ground looking at in the dark?

However, since Shen Jun’s notice must have profound intentions, they still took it seriously. There are even many common people who blindly and excessively trust Shen Tang's orders, and not only bring tools that can sit anywhere, but also snacks.

"Xu——"

The guard driving the car controlled the carriage to stop.

Said: "You two ladies, the place has arrived."

Fugu City is full of poor people who travel on two legs. There are very few people who have mules or donkeys at home. The horse-drawn carriage was a traveling spectacle that only a few local snakes had in the past. Therefore, the place where the carriage was temporarily parked was very empty.

Yu Zi jumped out of the carriage first.

Raised his hand and handed it to Lin Feng who bent down and came out.

Looking at the dark sky, Lin Feng guessed that it had not started yet, so he breathed a sigh of relief and hurried towards the "main venue" unhurriedly. About half of the people in Fugu City were here. Yu Zi looked at the crowd, slightly nervous.

“Why are there so many people?”

She hugged the two ponytails tighter.

Lin Feng was steady: "This is a grand ceremony prepared by Lang Jun for the people of Fugu. Of course they want to come out and see it."

Some people occupied a place with the neighbors they knew. , sitting on mats, mats or simply small stones brought from somewhere, sitting around and chatting. There are also some common people who feel bored and go to the small market not far away.

The small market is lined with lanterns on both sides.

It's much brighter than here.

Lin Feng and Yu Zi followed the two guards to the place specially reserved by Chu Yao. When they arrived, they realized that many family members of the officials of the government were already sitting here. Lin and Feng sat down and looked around but saw no familiar faces.

Puzzled: "Where are the teachers and the others?"

Yu Zi also said: "I haven't seen Mr. Kang either."

It stands to reason that Lang Jun and several gentlemen Shouldn't it be here too? If they are not here, who should host the opening ceremony?

Lin Feng listened to the chatter around him with a blank expression, feeling vaguely worried that there was something wrong with the process. Did Lang Jun and a few gentlemen go and deal with it? If she guesses it right, is this a big problem? She frowned.

The two of them sat there for a quarter of an hour.

Nothing has changed around me.

At this time, some of the common people and the family members of the officials around them could not sit still, and the content of the discussion changed from "What surprises did Jun Shen prepare?" to "Is the surprise turning into a shock?"

Lin Feng became more and more anxious.

"Junior sister, you are here! Make it easy for me to find you."

A familiar voice came from above.

The thin naughty boy opened his maza and sat down.

Tu Rong sat down and asked: "Senior brother, you are not late, are you?"

Lin Feng said: "Not yet."

Seeing that Tu Rong's face was still wet There were residual sweat stains, and the whole body exuded the sour odor of sweat, which made her feel bad. Lin Feng said angrily: "Brother, why don't you wash up and come back again? Or if you stop practicing for a day, the teacher won't blame you..."

Tu Rong giggled: "Stop? That won't work! We warriors, perseverance is the most important thing! We can't indulge ourselves easily..."

He still wants to work hard to grow up and take revenge!

Pushing hard never makes you tired.

I just hate that there are only twelve hours in a day, it is too short.

While speaking, he suddenly said: "Huh?"

Lin Feng: "How come?"

Tu Rong replied: "It's probably about to start."

"How did you know?" Yu Zi was quite curious.

"Because the surroundings are starting to get hotter." He is not yet a brave warrior, but his ability to capture the surrounding environment has exceeded that of ordinary people. He came here still covered in hot sweat. Logically speaking, the sweat should cool down quickly, leaving him shivering with cold.

“Getting hot?”

Yu Zi stretched out her warm hand - whether it was an illusion or not, the air didn't seem so cold anymore.

The common people have not noticed this change yet.

The discussion continued to get louder and noisier.

After about half a cup of tea, the air was filled with warmth, and the people realized something was wrong.

“Look! What is that?”

The common people were wondering when a shout suddenly came from the crowd.

Someone looked up and looked around.

Those who were relatively close to the city wall could see a barrier rising in the dark night, and many common people showed doubts in their eyes. Only some old people were well-informed. When frightened, they blurted out: "There's going to be a war!"

What? ? ?

At this moment, someone remembered what this barrier was.

This is a city wall barrier!

The seal and ribbon cannot be opened by anyone other than the Sheriff!

This is a defense that can only be activated briefly during war!

Once it appears, there must be a powerful enemy attacking the city wall.

This realization came into the minds of this group of people.

But before they could hold their heads and hide, something new happened immediately - the ground beneath everyone's feet trembled slightly, and strands of literary energy surged up from everyone's feet into the sky. Bang!

A loud bang!

A cluster of brilliant fireworks exploded overhead.

The brilliance flashes and is fleeting.

The private troops dispatched by the police station to maintain law and order have already taken action. According to the order, everyone is notified not to panic. Everyone can just sit down and watch the fireworks. In fact, there won't be any major riots if they don't take action.

Because the moment the first red fireworks bloomed with colorful brilliance above their heads, their attention was completely snatched away. Before I could recover, the second, third... the dark sky was illuminated by fireworks that bloomed one after another.

Every flower is extremely gorgeous.

The common people have never seen such a scene.

As the fireworks bloom, circles of different colors bloom. At first they were all circles, but other patterns were soon added.

"Junior sister, look at that word! Is that a word?" Tu Rong's eyes widened in shock, and he shook Lin Feng's arm excitedly.

Lin Feng finally came back to his senses and said, "That's the word."

It was still a very clear word "joy".

After saying that, another strange round face exploded above his head.

Emmm……

That's the face, right?

A pair of eyes and a smiling mouth.

It’s just weird that he has no nose, ears or hair.

However, it is not scary to look at, but it looks a bit naive, which makes people smile knowingly.

“Junior sister, junior sister, what is that?”

Tu Rong looked at the love fireworks that kept exploding.

Muttered: "It looks like a lot of buttocks..."

Lin Feng stepped on him neither lightly nor hard.

"Humph! This is definitely not a butt!"

"Why did Mr. Lang blow his butt up to the sky for nothing?"

This pattern must have a very beautiful meaning!

Tu Rong: "..."

Why does this sound so strange?

The sky almost turned into a sea of ​​fireworks. One wave dissipated and another lit up again, making it dizzying to watch.

Except for the confusing fireworks pattern at the beginning, the subsequent patterns were much more normal, and the crowd heard shouts of surprise from time to time. Immediately afterwards, the naive twelve zodiac signs such as "rat, ox, tiger, rabbit" appeared one after another.

Everyone was already dizzy.

Finally, the sky turned dark again.

Yu Zi regretted: "Is it over?"

The answer is naturally not yet.

An even louder exclamation came from the crowd.

Above the sky, a waterfall composed of golden fireworks poured down. At first glance, it seemed that the Milky Way had changed its course to the human world. The common people subconsciously held their heads, but found that the waterfall did not fall to the ground and disappeared in mid-air.

"What is that?"

One of the people in the crowd pointed to the golden waterfall.

A black spot appeared in the center of the waterfall, expanding continuously, and suddenly a colorful stream of light burst out. Spreading a pair of wings, it transformed into the legendary phoenix in front of everyone. The huge phoenix held something in its mouth, circled the southwest corner nine times, and then rushed back to the golden waterfall. The waterfall flowed backwards to the Milky Way.

“God, miracle!”

I don’t know who said this.

One after another, ordinary people knelt down devoutly.

It was not until the private tribe that maintained order repeatedly emphasized that this was just the effect of the spirit, not the miracle they thought, that things returned to normal. The fireworks that followed were all clusters of flowers, and they no longer had the shocking effect just now.

Even some of the patterns are a bit funny.

A string of firework footprints came from the direction of the city wall, accompanied by a heart pattern that Tu Rong nicknamed "butt".

It lasted for a cup of tea before it was over.

The public opinion is still not exhausted.

When they lowered their sore and swollen heads, they discovered that the surprise was not over yet. The surrounding area was divided by a corridor of rows of fish, dragons, lanterns, and lights. When someone was curious and tried to take one off, they found that it was empty - was it a fake?

“Are these fireworks too?” Yu Zi looked at her hands passing through the hanging tassels of the lantern, feeling a little disappointed.

Lin Feng: "It should be the effect of literary heart and words."

"Such as the phantom formation's speaking spirit?" Tu Rong knew that this kind of speaking spirit would cause hallucinations for the enemies trapped in it, and then disrupt the battlefield formation. What they saw today should be similar, except that the former was lethal, while the latter was purely for viewing.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and was speechless: "Such a large scope, such a long time... such a burden..."

No wonder I haven't seen Lang Jun and the others yet.

In the entire Fugu City, no one except them can put on such a big show of words and spirits, and their literary spirit has probably been drained dry. The defense barrier of the city wall was raised in advance, probably because he was worried that "fish that slipped through the net" would get mixed up during the opening ceremony and take the opportunity to cause trouble... For a moment, Lin Feng was in an incomprehensible mood.

She stood there and looked around.

The faces of common people were reflected red by the lanterns.

Almost everyone had a smile on their face, grabbing the people around them to express their inner excitement and sharing the grand scene just now.

Yu Zi was worried about her: "What's wrong?"

Lin Feng: "Is it worth it?"

"What is 'is it worth it'?"

The surroundings were too noisy and Yu Zi couldn't hear clearly.

Lin Feng murmured to himself: "It takes a lot of effort, a lot of effort, such a big price... Lang Jun prepared a surprise just to let the people watch the fun for a while - is it really worth it? "

Yu Zi shook his head: "I don't know."

A voice whispered in Lin Feng's heart.

【Worth it. 】

Chu Yao also wanted to ask this question.

Lin Feng's guess is correct. Shen Tang's literary spirit has indeed been drained out - if she hadn't suddenly thought of doing so many weird "butts", they might still have some literary spirit left - this For a moment, he looked like five dried salted fish.

Everyone kept a corner and watched the lantern festival.

Shen Tang and Chu Yao are in a group.

Stay on the unfinished roof and look at the thousands of lights below.

"Is it worth it?" Shen Tang smiled and tilted his head, "When would Wuhui ask such a question?"

Chu Yao wanted an answer.

Shen Tang thought seriously: "It should be worth it."

She pointed to the crowd of people watching the lanterns below.

“Wuhui, look at them all laughing.”

Ordinary people, shrouded in the clouds of war and hunger, most often give people a face that is more bitter than bitter gourd, and true smiles from the heart are rare. Unless there is a happy event in the family, maybe this year's harvest will be more than before...

If you can let them put down the burden of life and all their sorrows, and sincerely curl their lips, even for a moment, it is worth it.

She said matter-of-factly: "I don't understand the general truth, but a qualified lord should not let the people under his rule live a prosperous life, have full stomachs, and be happy every day. Isn't it good to laugh?"

Chu Yao smiled and said: "Very good."

The master in his eyes at this moment——

It's light, it's flame.

Besides the lord, there is probably no other person in this world. You go through all the trouble just to make the people smile, right? It made him feel from the bottom of his heart that all the bitterness brewing in those years was worth it.
