130 The strange event at the Mid-Autumn Festival ceremony
“Haha, everyone’s here. Your Taoist temple is getting more and more lively.”
Wang longqi walked in slowly and greeted everyone as if they were close. Although he had never seen the flying sand in ten thousand miles, he could tell from his appearance that he was a very motivated young man.
The two of them looked at each other, appreciating each other’s talent.
“Seventh young master Wang, I’ve long heard of your name.”
“Junior Brother Sha, Hello.”
After some small talk, he slowly sat down.
He saw the other four people in the temple looking at him with slanted eyes, their faces full of vigilance.
He blinked and sized himself up.”What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with me?”
“Young master Wang has appeared in our temple, and nothing has gone wrong,” the Fox girl said with a smile.
The old Daoist sighed. I’ve just made a wish for the world to be peaceful. And you’re here. You’re just trying to slap me in the face.
Wang longqi waved his hand. you’re being too polite. We’re like a family. What’s wrong with me visiting on Mid-Autumn night? ”
As he spoke, he saw that everyone was still staring at him cautiously.
The ahoge on the little Koi’s forehead stood up like an antenna.
“Alright, alright.” “I had a fight with my family and ran away from home. That’s why I came here to shop.” He raised his hands and said frankly.
“Hi,” he said. Everyone let their guard down and the old Daoist smiled, ” “I thought you’ve fallen for another Vixen.”
“There’s also this.” Wang longqi admitted indifferently.
“What?” Everyone’s vigilance was raised again.
“But it’s not that serious this time. It’s also an interesting story. Let me tell you.” Wang longqi quickly said.
He leaned forward. old Taoist, do you know which girl is the most popular in Hangzhou recently? ”
“AI.” Yu Qi ‘an shook his head. I’ve already sealed my spear. It’s been a long time since I’ve been in battle. I can’t get any news.
“Hehe.” “It’s Liu Qinglian and miss Liu from the peach Valley Pavilion,” Wang longqi said with a smile.
“Originally, in recent years, the limelight has been stolen by the gentleness club. The famous good girls are all there.” He looked like a storyteller who was telling a story about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
“The fragrance-seeking house is relying on the official feasts to survive, and the peach Valley floor is also almost unable to support itself.”
last month, the peach Valley Pavilion suddenly introduced a 17-year-old girl named little Liu. She’s known for her unparalleled dancing skills.
“After the scholars and scholars saw it, they couldn’t stop praising it.”
“There’s a poem praising,” a dance of the southern country’s flowers falling, and then a dance of the northern sea’s Feng chaojun.””
Liu Qinglian is the only one who has attracted the attention of all the scholars in Hangzhou City. Overnight, the peach Valley restaurant has overshadowed all the good girls in the city and defeated the other two families.
Flying sand was dumbfounded. the competition between the brothels is so fierce? ”
“Then what do you think?” the old Taoist snorted and said, ” “Since ancient times, the moon and the wind have been like battlefields, blood and sweat fought with swords and Spears. The situation changed in the blink of an eye, and it’s no less important than the general trend of the world.”
“Old Daoist priest, you know your stuff.” Wang longqi gave him a thumbs up.
go on, how did this miss Liu get involved with the demoness? ”
“Don’t worry, we’re going to talk about the Mid-Autumn Festival ceremony next.” Wang longqi continued.
The Mid-Autumn Festival ceremony was an open-air ceremony held every year in the prefecture. There would be performances from morning to evening that lasted for an entire day. It wasn’t until night fell and the full moon hung in the sky that they dispersed.
Those who were invited to perform at the Grand ceremony were often the best artists in the city. Whether it was acrobatic performances or singing, they usually had to spend a lot of money to see them.
Every time there was a big ceremony, the streets would be empty. The people in the city would bring their families to watch a day of performances and it would be very lively. At night, they would go home for dinner and admire the moon.
Only then would he be able to enjoy himself.
In a small place like Yuhang Town, there was no such lively celebration. The little koi fish had heard about this when he went to the prefecture city. In the morning, he said that he wanted to go into the city to take a look.
However, the old Daoist took into account that the Fox girl had yet to fully transform and that the entire city’s people would be gathered at the ceremony, so it was not convenient to bring her along. If he only brought the little koi to see it, he was afraid that the Fox girl would feel uncomfortable staying in the temple.
Only then did he think of a way to ask them to make mooncakes for the whole day.
the most important part of the Mid-Autumn Festival is the Grand performance that will take place after nightfall and before the festival ends. “Every time, they’ll choose the most popular girl to play the role,” Wang longqi explained.”It’ll end when the atmosphere is at its peak.”
the performer is called ‘courtesan under the moon’, which means that you are the recognized courtesan of the entire Hangzhou Prefecture this year.
The old Daoist nodded. This rule had been in place for a long time, and he was familiar with it.
the position of the courtesan Belle under the moon was decided a few months ago. I heard that the original candidate was Xiao Mingyue, miss Xiao from ‘gentleness’.
“Who knew that Liu Qinglian would appear out of nowhere and steal the title of the courtesan Belle under the moon? Xiao Mingyue may be good at singing, but her dancing is not!”
in the end, Xiao Mingyue performed The Last Dance for Liu Qinglian. Miss Liu performed The Last Dance.
“That dance was so beautiful. Who wouldn’t fall in love with miss Xiao Liu after seeing it?” Wang longqi looked up at the night sky and sighed.
“You went to take a look?”
of course. I go to the city every year to see the moon before going home to admire it. “I just didn’t expect such an explosive thing to happen this year,” Wang longqi said with a nod.
when Liu Qinglian finished her dance, she suddenly fell to the ground and transformed into a demon in front of all the people in the city!
“Ah?”
The people in deyun temple were surprised.
you’re all so surprised when you hear it, right? you can imagine how shocked the people who saw this scene must be! Wang longqi said, ” she was a beautiful woman under the moon just now. Now, she suddenly grew scales and a snake tail!
“Isn’t that a Suan ni?”
...
Yu Qi ‘an and Wang longqi looked at each other and said in unison, ”
it’s even more wonderful?!
“Ahem!”
The Fox girl coughed heavily, interrupting the two’s sudden and indescribable excitement.
“Hehe, I knew you’d say that, old Daoist.” Wang longqi smiled embarrassedly, ” but, there are still many people who were shocked. Immediately, the xiuzhe of the Imperial court came forward, restrained her, and took her to the prison.”
“If this miss little Liu is really a demoness, it would be such a pity. I’m afraid it would be difficult for her to return in the future.” Wang longqi sighed.
“What does her sudden transformation into a pixie have to do with you coming here?” Li Chu suddenly asked.
He thought that Wang longqi was here to get rid of the evil spirit, but it seemed that there was nothing he needed to do.
“Um.” Wang longqi paused. you can say that they are somewhat related.
I’ve never seen this dance before in the Hangzhou Prefecture. I didn’t expect it to be my last song. “Is there anything more regretful than this in the world?” Wang longqi said dejectedly.
“But Yingluo is in shenluo city. There are at least a dozen other courtesans like miss little Liu. Especially the annual flower Festival, which was a hundred times more exciting than the Mid-Autumn Festival! I was thinking that one should stay in shenluo city for a period of time in their lifetime and experience the city of flowers once.”
...
I told my father that I wanted to go to shenluo city to do business.
“He said Yingluo.”
Wang longqi mimicked his father’s mean tone.
“Are you running a business? I’m too embarrassed to expose you!”
“We quarreled a little and he chased me out.”
Everyone,”hehe.”
“He also said that I’m a good-for-nothing who only knows how to spend my family’s money. Pfft.” Wang longqi grabbed a piece of mooncake and ate a few mouthfuls. He spat out a fish scale and frowned.
The koi fish blushed and the ahoge on its forehead stood up again.
“New filling.” Li Chu explained.
“Oh,” Wang longqi continued to eat, took a sip of tea, and said angrily, ” “What’s so bad about being a good-for-nothing?”
“Let’s not talk about this for now.” Yu Qi ‘an pondered for a while and said with a serious expression, ” “From what you’ve said, I feel that Yingluo, that miss Liu, might not be a Vixen.”
“What?” Wang longqi was stunned.
Yu Qi ‘an thought for a moment and said,”my disciple, you should set off immediately and rush to the capital’s prison to see that miss Liu and ask her a few questions.”
Li Chu was a little stunned. He didn’t think that he would be involved in this matter.
“Can miss Liu really be saved?” Wang longqi’s eyes lit up.
“Not necessarily. I’ll only know after I ask.” “If she really is a demon, no one can save her,” Yu Qi ‘an said. But if she is not Qianqian ...”
Wang longqi clenched his fists, and the two of them said in unison again, ” “I can’t let the beauty suffer!”
