lost narrative poem

Chapter 431

Midsummer Dragon Boat Festival, Canglong Qisu flies to Zhengnan Zhongtian. The festival is on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar. It is a traditional folk festival.

Even Taiping Village is much more lively than before. Grand sacrificial activities were held. It was as lively as New Year’s Eve. It was filled with joyful and festive atmosphere. Worshiping gods and ancestors was only basic, and drinking realgar wine to avoid poisonous insects was also an important part. one.

Every household in the village hangs wormwood and calamus on the door to dispel poisonous gas, which can drive away diseases, prevent mosquitoes, and ward off evil spirits. The special pungent aroma permeates every corner of the air.

The children are crazy about playing, running around in groups, and many children are still releasing paper kites. Their manual skills are first-class, simply pasting paper or silk on bamboo strips and other skeletons, and pulling The long line tied to it was directly released into the sky by taking advantage of the wind.

There is also dragon boat rowing——

However, Taiping Village is only close to a small river, so such a custom has not been able to develop, and Chaohu Lake is a day away from here. If it is not to go to the county seat, it is difficult for the villagers to go to Chaohu Lake to prepare for the dragon boat race in advance. It's so unrealistic.

Although there is no hope for dragon boat rowing, the village also has its own customs. For example, the performances of dancing Zhong Kui and beheading little ghosts are held every year, and the traditional custom of eating rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival has been well preserved in Taiping Village. .

"Is this... really edible?"

In front of a stall in the village that bought rice dumplings, Artoria's emerald green eyes contained a trace of expectation, but they were also full of suspicion.

This kind of food has never been seen by her. Although she has spent more than ten years in this world, she basically spent it in the summer manor in Jimo Mountain, and did not go down the mountain much.

It wasn't until the early guarantee indicators were completed that Xia Ran received news from the two twins that Han Lingsha had passed through Shouyang City and was heading to Taiping Village. The main storyline officially started, and the group of them really started to enter the world.

"Of course it's edible. It's fragrant and delicious. After passing this one, there will be no such store. Miss, why don't you try it..."

The peddler behind the stall suddenly cheered, as if he felt aggrieved by the girl's questioning, and began to sell the goods very quickly.

"I didn't say that. Our Li family's signboard is very famous in Taiping Village. Look how big this head is, it's strong and full, the glutinous rice inside is delicious, and the meat stuffing is big and delicious..."

It has to be said that his salesmanship is quite decent. Most people would probably feel their appetite whetted when they smell the aroma of zongzi and listen to his vivid explanation, let alone a foodie.

"This one……"

Sure enough, Saber was hesitant, and subconsciously looked at the head maid who was in charge of the money on the other side, and found that the other party's expression was flat and unmoved, so she could only look at her Master, showing a hint of pleading.

Although the girl is not impatient, the life in the mountains for more than ten years will not make her feel tormented. On the contrary, it has given her another completely different life experience-she has never tried such a peaceful life. Think about it, just do what you want to do in a flat way.

She was born with the destiny of becoming the Lord of Camelot, and for that day to come, she has been exercising all the time, never relaxing, and at the age of 15, after pulling out the sword in the stone and becoming the king, there is no rest. It's time.

Governing the kingdom, resisting foreign enemies, fighting against nobles, and a series of accidents involving her own princess, sister, and even her own daughter all exhausted her physically and mentally. In the end, even the most trustworthy Knights of the Round Table were divorced. Falling apart...

Until his death, King Arthur hadn't been able to catch his breath, and even death couldn't bring her real peace.

On the contrary, now, she has enjoyed a carefree and peaceful life in this world for more than ten years. Although she did not relax and practice her swordsmanship and magic, this is already a very relaxed and carefree experience.

Therefore, even the king of knights who has been famous forever and has strict requirements on himself will inevitably recover the nature of a girl who has been suppressed by the king's self-cultivation... At least in the past, she was absolutely not. I will ask Xia Ran with this look.

"Then buy some and eat on the road, it's cheap anyway..." Xia Ran said with a slight smile.

Anyway, this King Arthur only had such a little fun in life, and he was not a black-hearted capitalist, so black-hearted that such things could not be discussed.

"Little Taoist priest, you really have vision. The signboard of my Li family has always been very famous. Zongzi is worth a penny, and children can be fooled..."

The peddler smiled, and quickly packed the bags for a few guests, and said so with a smile at the same time.

"And our village has a show every year. It's on the stage over the ancestral hall. If you want, you can go and have a look. Watching the show while eating rice dumplings is really great..."

Under the misleading influence of some kind of spiritual power, he didn't realize how weird the combination of the three people in front of him was, and how incompatible the painting style was.

Fortunately, the young Taoist priest in the head looked like a young man, he seemed to be seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a blue and white celestial master Taoist robe, with long black hair reaching his waist.

However, the head maid is still wearing a maid outfit with ruffles, bow ribbons, and a headscarf. Although Artoria does not wear a maid outfit, the combination of a white slim top and a blue skirt is also very pure and lovely. Completely different from the clothing style in this world.

Moreover, both of them are obviously girls from different countries. One has silver hair and red eyes, and the other has blond hair and blue eyes. This is the biggest feature and difference. In theory, no matter where they go, they are easy to attract attention.

It's just that Xia Ran doesn't have the mind to fish for law enforcement now, and there's no need for that, so she still uses some special methods.

Of course, it’s not very profound, it’s just purely affecting the cognition of ordinary people, so that they can see the appearance of their group and hear their voices, but they will subconsciously ignore the relatively unreasonable parts.

However, slightly special people, such as those with strong spiritual sense, or those with special abilities, are not affected.

This also means that such a person will still be the first to notice this strange combination and be attracted to it.

For example...Han Lingsha.

This young girl is dressed in a red-and-yellow dress with short skirt and short hair. She looks heroic. She seems to be dressed like this for the convenience of her movements. Her shrewd eyes are quite agile. She is standing not far away and looking over here. Come.

She climbed up to Qingluan Peak early in the morning to see the legendary sword fairy, but unexpectedly she did not find the sword fairy, but met a savage instead. downhill.

The main reason is that although she didn't find the sword fairy, she also found clues to the sword fairy, but those things belonged to the things left by the savage's parents, and the savage was so powerful and deadly, it was hard to fool him.

So in desperation, Han Nvxia could only find an excuse to let the other party go down the mountain with her to enter the world, and try to understand her parents' past.In this way, the goals of both parties are the same.

But I don't know if Yun Tianhe is really scared—because he collapsed the tomb of his parents, he is very afraid that after dark, his dead father will come to the door angrily to interrupt His own legs, so after making up his mind to go down the mountain, he ran very fast along the way.

Almost at noon, the two of them had arrived at the foot of the mountain and entered the village...

Han Lingsha was amused by this, and planned to spend the night in the village.Although it was only noon, she didn't intend to rush on her way because she rarely felt quite sleepy.

However, this girl didn't suspect anything, she just felt that she probably ran around all day yesterday and didn't stop to rest when passing through Shouyang City, but when she climbed up the mountain early in the morning, accidents happened frequently, Almost died on the mountain.

Then she ran down the mountain as if reincarnated, and she couldn't stand it. Although her skill is not bad, she is still a mortal body after all, so she will naturally feel tired.

Tell Yun Tianhe not to run around, she was going to come to find the village chief, and talk about the two of them wanting to spend the night in Taiping Village today, but when she came over, she saw such a few particularly conspicuous people, so she naturally added more words subconsciously. Pay attention.

This is caused by the professional sensitivity of the female heroine Han. As a mausoleum thief who travels thousands of miles alone, she is not only always wanted by the government everywhere, but also often overlooked by some chivalrous people who also walk the rivers and lakes. Really go to jail.

"Girl, is there anything important to do? I see that you have been watching us all the time, staring at us..."

Xia Ran reached out to take the zongzi from the head maid and peeled off the zongzi with her verdant jade fingers, and took a bite of the steaming zongzi, then turned to look at the girl in red not far away, and said directly .

After being discovered, Han Lingsha was stunned for a moment, but there was no need for panic or embarrassment. After all, she is not so thin-skinned, otherwise, it would be difficult for her to wander around at such an age.

"Huh? Ah, this... This girl obviously just glanced at it for a few times, so how can she keep staring at it? But you discovered all of this, the little Taoist priest is quite clever..."

So she immediately said with a smile, she didn't seem to be affected at all, and her tone was very familiar, and she was also very calm.

"But don't worry, I just don't think you little Taoist priests are like the people around here, so I paid more attention... After all, this girl has many enemies in the Jianghu. If you come after me, wouldn't you Not too bad."

Every word is a little Taoist, but there is no disrespect, so it will not make people feel so angry. She is such a character, generous, straightforward and informal, and even Murong Ziying in the future will never Don't treat him as a master.

But this kind of character is indeed very likable. If some people are also very straightforward, maybe it will be easy to get closer to each other.

But this also shows that Han Lingsha doesn't think there is anything special about the little Taoist priest in front of her, and she doesn't even think that the other party is really a Taoist priest, it doesn't matter if she is young, she is not a person who judges people by age.

After all, she is just 17 years old and she seems younger, and the other party is also the same age as her, so Miss Han will never discriminate because of her age, let alone feel that her mouth is hairless, and she must be gray-haired if she can't do things well. Only the grandfather can be a master of Taoism.

The reason why she felt that this little Taoist priest was not a real Taoist priest was because there were two beautiful young girls beside him who were competing for beauty, but how could a real master of Taoism be like this?

So it is probably some rich kid who is too busy to be a Taoist priest. He thinks it is very interesting to be a Taoist priest, but he can't give up the stunning beauty of his family... And if you look closely, you will find that these three people have obviously never done any work. expensive.

——Thinking about it this way, she became more and more sure of her guess.

"So that's the case, but girl, don't worry, I'm not here to seek revenge on you..." Xia Ran chuckled, ate the zongzi in his hand in two or three bites, and said leisurely, "And I thought you suddenly I am interested in Xiaodao, because I want to come to ask divination and divination for good or bad future."

"Huh? Can you little Taoist priest still be able to tell fortunes?" Han Lingsha seemed surprised, and subconsciously looked him up, "I didn't see you walking around holding a sign, how could others know like this ?”

"Yes, why not?" The young Taoist casually took the flag that was placed next to him and lifted it up. It seemed that he had placed it by the side when he was eating rice dumplings just now, so Han Lingsha didn't see it.

Shaking his hands lightly, the flag unfolded, with four large characters written on it——

"Whatever you ask for"

"Pfft..." Han Lingsha burst out laughing, "Whatever you ask for? Then how do you do business..."

"Of course it depends on fate..." Xia Ran said with a smile.

"Then do you think this girl is destined?" The red-clothed girl suddenly became interested, and asked with a pompous air, "Can you count me in?"

"Of course..." The little Taoist glanced at her, "What do you want to be?"

"This...isn't it all like that? Fortune-telling is good or bad, depending on the future, marriage is not necessary, this girl is not interested..." Han Lingsha replied casually, seemingly not taking it too seriously.

"Nursery... Girl, you are a person with strong yin and yang in your birth date. You were born at a yin time, and you were born with water in your life. Your fate is a rare violation of heaven and water. This is one of the great ominous..." Xia Ran said calmly,

"Huh? What do you mean? Explain it more clearly!" Han Lingsha was a little dissatisfied immediately, and don't fortune tellers even know how to choose good words?

"To put it more clearly... Girl, you are short-lived."

"..."

"..."

Deathly silence.

After a long while, the red-clothed girl was not surprised but delighted, her eyes lit up: "Could it be that you really have real materials, little Taoist priest? Is this fortune-telling true?"

"I just know a little about Taoism..." Xia Ran said modestly.
