Chapter 416: Reunion at the Lantern Festival, a Destined Love [A must-read chapter, please give me a monthly vote]"What's up, brat?" A pair of slightly cold eyes appeared from behind the window, Hou Yuanxi was observing everything silently. Song Lin's method of changing his appearance was indeed clever, and only a Dharma Immortal's divine sense could see through his disguise. Or someone with special abilities who was very familiar with Song Lin's aura. exactly. Hou Yuanxi had both, and happened to be next to Song Lin. crunch~~ The door not far away opened quietly. A woman with a dignified temperament, wearing a pear blossom long skirt and a jade branch on her head, strolls along the corridor. It was Song Xiangyu's original appearance. "..." Hou Yuanxi took a deep breath and his chest puffed up.
I almost exploded with anger! Just because of Song Lin's words, this stupid woman couldn't help but think about whether Yang Qingyuan would be attracted by Song Xiangyu's identity? "You keep saying you're devoted to cultivation and never marry. But you're clearly just a fool who gets carried away once you fall in love! You're ten, a hundred times more foolish than I was in my previous life!" "Silly disciple~~Sooner or later you will be broken-hearted by that unfaithful man!" Hou Yuanxi sighed quietly, feeling extremely powerless. The night is leisurely. Song Lin strolled in the suppression city seven thousand years later, feeling the tranquility of the entire city in the night. Compared to the past, the Demon-Suppressing City is now free from the threat of the Baimang Mountain, the people live in peace, the monks practice in seclusion, and it can be said to be thriving. A figure was walking towards us. He was dressed in scholar's clothes, looked middle-aged, and passed by Song Lin with a handful of imperial food in his hand. "Ok?" Song Lin's heart moved. I smelled a familiar scent on the middle-aged man. Luck. Similar to the fortune of Hebo Vajra in the previous life. 'Is there some treasure hidden on him?' Song Lin thought. Then he shook his head. Forget it. He now has both skills and wealth, so why should he care about other people's things? Think about it.
He continued to roam the streets. "That man just now was Yang Qingyuan, right? There seems to be some connection between him and Song Lin." The middle-aged scholar turned the corner, stopped, and looked thoughtful. "Hehe~ After I kill Song Lin, I'll take your life at will." A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked towards the direction of the Shi family's ancient house from a distance, with a strong murderous intent flashing in his eyes. This person is Cang Xiuyuan from Jiushen City. "Hello." An elegant female voice suddenly sounded in my ears. "Ok?" Cang Xiuyuan's heart trembled, and he suddenly turned around and looked at the woman at the alley entrance fiercely. Da~~ The woman in the pear blossom dress seemed startled and took two steps back, her face terrified: "I... I just want to ask for directions." "If you don't know the way, don't ask me." Cang Xiuyuan saw that he didn't recognize this person, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but he endured it. A common woman who looked like she came from some wealthy family was not worth the risk. "Yeah, I'm sorry." The dignified and beautiful woman stammered, lowered her head and walked away in small steps, as if she was extremely timid. After a while. The middle-aged scholar disguised as Cang Xiuyuan has left. Song Xiangyu, wearing a pear blossom long skirt, returned to the entrance of the alley again, stood in the position where Cang Xiuyuan was just now, and looked into the distance. "This person's murderous intent is so strong. This position... is it going to be disadvantageous to us?" A smile suddenly appeared on Song Xiangyu's beautiful face. Like Hou Yuanxi. She is now gifted with extraordinary talent and a clear mind for swordsmanship. Although her cultivation is not as good as Hou Yuanxi's, she is also able to distinguish between truth and falsehood, good and evil. Once you have met someone, you will never forget his/her aura. next time. If this person appears again, we can join forces with our fellow disciples to take him down directly. And now... She looked up at the night sky in the distance, feeling a kind of guidance from the unknown. The person I wanted to see was indeed in this city.
“Guess the lantern riddles and enjoy the lanterns!” "Miss, would you like to buy a little candy man?" "Bobo chicken, Bobo chicken, Bobo chicken for one penny a string..." "Sir, come in and sit down!" "Hehe~ Don't be shy. We have beauties from all over the world here, including the daughters of wealthy families who have fallen on hard times, female cultivators who have gone astray, cold and arrogant fairies, and even half-demons with tails..." A group of women surrounded Song Lin with great enthusiasm. Song Xiangyu, who was following behind him, couldn't help but feel relieved when she saw him repeatedly refusing and finally getting rid of the entanglement of that group of bitches. then. The scenes between the two of them in Baihua Palace came back to his mind. Her pretty face turned slightly red, and a charming smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of her mouth. Very sweet. Anyone who sees it would probably want to come forward and have a taste. "Ok?" Song Lin turned back subconsciously. The crowd was in chaos and the shadows were vague. It just happened to cover Song Xiangyu's tall figure. He shook his head and moved on. Ever since he began to comprehend the "Mysterious Art of Planting Demons in the Heart of Dao", he had developed a mysterious sense of connection in his heart. tonight. There is a high probability that you will meet someone you like. "What about people?" Song Xiangyu looked around in confusion. In just a moment of distraction, Song Lin's figure had already been submerged in the crowd. The moon rises over the cassia branches, and the night deepens. The streets of the Demon-Suppressing City were still brightly lit and bustling with people. “Guess the lantern riddles and enjoy the lanterns!” "Everyone come and take a look, guess the riddles and win ornaments!" Song Lin unknowingly walked to a street full of lanterns.
This place is somewhat similar to the Liusu Long Street in Shengdao, Meizhou. Perhaps all the lantern streets in the world are like this. He looked at the cages of lanterns and the dazzling array of hanging ornaments, and was attracted by a jade hairpin. Imagine it in your mind. If this hairpin was worn on Tan Tai Xuan Yin's head, it would be absolutely beautiful. As far as I can remember, she never wore any jewelry and her face was plain. I wonder if she would look gorgeous after wearing this jewelry. "Father, I want this lantern." "Father, I want this lantern." Two hands crossed in the air. The man standing on the left stretched out his right hand to take the lantern on the right. The woman standing on the right stretched out her hand to take the lantern on the left. The two movements paused, and the hands stopped just before they were about to touch. Eyes meet. Then they all stood there in a daze. "It's you?" "It's you!" Song Lin looked surprised and Song Xiangyu blushed slightly. The two never thought that they would meet in this place. The scene of the showdown among thousands of lights on Liusu Street a few years ago is still vivid in my mind. Only this time. There was no more anger between them, only unusual awkwardness. "What a coincidence." Song Lin slowly withdrew his hand. He immediately noticed that Song Xiangyu was wearing a hairpin of similar style on her head. No wonder the other party also liked this gift, this hairpin really suited her aesthetic taste. If it were worn on her head, it would be absolutely beautiful. "Yeah, what a coincidence." Song Xiangyu's smile was stiff and a hint of timidity flashed in her eyes. She had only intended to see him from a distance and not disturb their peaceful lives. Unexpectedly, they bumped into each other on this lantern riddle street and even fell in love with the same lucky number. Who is he planning to give this to? "This young man, young lady, here." An exquisite lantern appeared in front of the two. An exquisite jade hairpin hangs under the lantern, and its petals woven with gold threads flutter in the wind, shining brightly. The old man behind the stall held a lantern and said with a smile, "Since both of you like this riddle, why don't you compete to guess the answer? How about I do you a favor and give it to you two?"
"This……" Song Lin and Song Xiangyu froze in place, both wanting to retreat. "Hahaha~~ There's only one lantern, it's really hard to tell them apart." The old man saw that the two of them looked interesting, so he smiled and said, "I think you two are talented and beautiful, like a perfect couple made in heaven. So, young master, you take a loss, guess the answer and give the lantern gift to this young lady, how about that?" "In this way, the young man gets the lantern, and the young lady gets the gift. Both sides gain something. And I, an old man, may be able to help them find a perfect match. How wonderful, how wonderful!" He kept shaking his head, looking relaxed and contented. "Uh, I..." Song Lin was in a daze and was reluctant to take the lantern. Song Xiangyu's face flushed and she was at a loss. The old man clearly saw that the two knew each other, but pretended not to know, as if he was intentionally trying to bring them together. But their current identities are not a couple at all! "I do not--" "I guess!" Song Xiangyu and Song Lin each spoke. Finally, for the first time, the two made different choices. "you?" Song Xiangyu looked surprised. Song Lin had already taken the lantern, unwrapped the red paper covering the riddle, and recited: "Deep clouds and shallow fog cannot cover it, the river waves have not passed and spring has come again. We always meet in the past life and this life, and one word reveals the calamity of fate. Guess one person, one thing, one word?" "Old man, are there three more answers to this riddle?" Song Lin looked up and asked. "of course." The old man smiled complacently and said, "Among all the items on my stall, this hairpin is the most valuable. Since you two like it, of course you have to guess the most difficult question." "It's so difficult!" Song Xiangyu couldn't help but whispered. "It's really hard." Song Lin frowned and thought. Countless thoughts were running through my mind, and suddenly an idea came to me. His eyes lit up and he looked up immediately.
The old man looked surprised and said, "I think you two seem to have the answer in your mind. Why don't you tell us together?" Song Lin turned and looked at Song Xiangyu. Just at this moment, the other party also looked in the direction of his gaze. Both of them saw full confidence in each other's eyes. "it is good!" The two said in unison. "please." The old man smiled and looked expectant: "The answer to the first riddle is - people." "you." "I." Song Lin and Song Xiangyu spoke at the same time, and suddenly looked at each other, still full of confidence. Everyone seems to be saying. you lose! My answer is correct! "Okay! Hahaha, the second answer to the riddle - thing." The old man showed a strange smile and continued expectantly. "pregnancy." Song Lin's tone was firm. "die." Song Xiangyu waved her fist lightly. He seemed to feel that he had finally defeated his opponent and was extremely excited. "The best answer is a word!" The old man looked surprised and a smile gradually spread across his lips. "Affection." "edge." Two sounds came out at the same time. Song Lin and Song Xiangyu looked at each other again, both with a hint of provocation in their eyes. "..." The old man behind the stall seemed to be frozen in place, with a strange light shining in his eyes. "Father, which of us is right?"
They both turned their heads at the same time and spoke in unison. “You…” The old man took a deep breath and said solemnly: “You are all right.” what! Song Lin and Song Xiangyu were both stunned when they heard this. Three puzzles, six answers. They all got them right. Could it be that this riddle is divided into male and female, yin and yang? "Hahahaha, they're all right! You all got it right! I've been setting up lanterns here for my whole life, and I actually met my match. Wonderful! Wonderful!" A burst of laughter rang out. The old man looked at the two of them with a smile and admiration in his eyes. "You two are truly a match made in heaven, destined to be together. In this life, you will surely achieve your goal and be happily married! I, an old man, would like to congratulate you two in advance!" what? Song Lin and Song Xiangyu were completely stunned. Looking at the lanterns and jade hairpins swaying in the night wind, the two suddenly realized a serious problem. They had just promised the old man that if Song Lin could guess the riddle, he would give the gift to Song Xiangyu. One person gets a lamp and the other person gets a hairpin. Both sides gain something. [Please, please, please, please give me a monthly ticket! ] [It's the end of the month, godfathers, please express your gratitude! ]
