The host is collapsing again today

Chapter 196 Celestial Moon God (26)

But the little fox has a big opinion.However, due to the crowds on the street, the little fox didn't say anything, but lay on Chang Xi's shoulder, pointing his round butt towards Ye Chu to express his dissatisfaction.

Although it is night, the restaurants and shops on the street have hung lanterns at their doorsteps, and even the roadside stalls will hang a small lantern on their small facades, which makes the whole street bright. stand up.

There were many people on the street, and Ye Chu had been carefully protecting Chang Xi from being touched by others.Sensing Ye Chu's movements, Chang Xi smiled gratefully at Ye Chu.

Perhaps it was because the mercenary ranking competition was about to start tomorrow, so the streets tonight were much more lively than ever.Everyone is preparing for tomorrow's game.

Suddenly, there were bursts of exclamations from the river not far away.Chang Xi looked in the direction from which the call came, and found that bright lanterns were flying slowly where the crowd gathered.

Chang Xi didn't know much about the customs of the Mortal Continent, so he was a little curious about it, so he looked at Ye Chu beside him, pointed to the place where the lantern flew, and asked, "Ye Chu, what is that?"

Seeing Chang Xi looking at him curiously, Ye Chu also looked in the direction Chang Xi pointed, with a trace of nostalgia in his eyes, "That's the Kongming Lantern."

Ye Chu paused, and then continued to explain to Chang Xi, "Tomorrow there will be a large number of mercenaries going on missions, and this is their family members praying for them. Legend has it that you write your wishes on Kongming lanterns, and then Put it in the sky, and it will be seen by the gods in the sky, and they will help you realize your wish."

Hearing Ye Chu's words, Chang Xi complained silently in his heart: It's all nonsense. I have been in the God Realm for 2 years and I haven't seen any Kongming Lanterns!
Although he thought so, Chang Xi was still very interested in this Kongming Lantern, then looked at Ye Chu and said, "Let's go buy one and put it on!"

Then without waiting for Ye Chu to answer, he took his hand and went to the roadside stall selling Kongming lanterns.Due to the customs of Higurashi City, vendors selling Kongming lanterns can be seen everywhere.

Ye Chu lowered his head, watching Chang Xi holding his hand.Although Chang Xi's palm was slightly cold, it made his heart a little warmer at this moment.

Under the reflection of the orange light of the lantern, Chang Xi's face also felt warmer.Watching the young girl choose the Kongming Lantern, after all these years, Ye Chu finally had a sense of belonging and warmth in his heart.

Ever since his mother and concubine passed away, Ye Chu never let go of Kongming Lantern.In the past, every New Year's day, it was the mother concubine who held his hand and led him to put Kongming lanterns in that remote and desolate yard.

Although life was not easy at that time, Ye Chu still had a very happy life.Until the mother and concubine also left him, no one would hold his hand to release the Kongming lantern.Since then, he has never touched the Kongming Lantern again.

"How about this?" Chang Xi smiled and brought a red sky lantern in front of Ye Chu.

"It's very nice, let's take this." Ye Chu smiled, took the Kongming Lantern from Chang Xi's hand, paid the money, and led Chang Xi to the river.

And the little fox kept staring angrily at Ye Chu and Chang Xi's intersecting hands.Then he looked at his paws angrily.
