Screaming Cycle (Infinite Flow)

When it was almost evening, Ji Thrush and Ren Jianmo went back to the inn.

Ever since the manipulator installed a dozen surveillance cameras in the Li Mansion, Li Yunmu's appearance was familiar to everyone.

Catch up with July [-]th and other days when thousands of people are empty, it is naturally impossible for Mr. Li to stay at home obediently.

In fact, today he went out early in the morning. Together with a few friends, he first went for an outing in the garden, and then went to a famous wine shop in the city to have a feast. Go, watch the evening river lantern festival.

The upper room of Tianzihao where the manipulator lives has been converted into a monitoring room by him.

There are more than a dozen monitoring screens hung on three sides of the rosewood four-poster bed, and a few small robots in the shape of spiders crawl around between the screens, watching the movement of the target person instead of the owner.

"Zero has sneaked into Li's residence, and now he is following Li Yunmu."

The mechanical finger pointed to one of the displays and said to the others.

Ji Thrush leaned over to take a look, and found that it should be the surveillance camera lens pinned to the collar or skirt. At this time, it was moving forward from the first perspective. There were 30 to [-] people bustling in front of it. It looked like a big family traveling. battles.

Ji Xiaoniaoxin said that the people in Qinxuehui really have two brushes.

Usually a rich man like Li Yunmu brings out the servants who have been with him for many years and know the basics. I don't know what method Zero used to sneak in in an open and honest manner.

"Here, this is Li Yunmu."

The mechanical hand pointed out the figure of someone who occasionally appeared in the crowd, "I'm very recognizable in this suit!"

Although due to the angle, everyone can only see Mr. Li's back or a small half of his profile at the moment, but that Huahua young man is wearing a crimson robe embroidered with gold and silver flowers today, which is just like wearing a robe. Dressed in a happy suit, even if he was a hundred meters away, he could be picked out from the crowd at a glance.

Marco couldn't help but complained: "Fuck, what do you want to do dressed like this!?"

"I've been listening to them yelling for a long time."

The robot snorted coldly:

"Mr. Li is determined to win Miss Luzhu, so he just wants to be the bridegroom tonight!"

In short, regardless of Li Yunmu's reasons for dressing so flamboyantly and flirtatiously, it is a good thing for Ji Thrush and the others, at least they don't have to worry about losing people at the crowded lantern festival when they are following.

After discussing with each other, they decided to divide the troops into two groups. Most of them dispersed to the River Lantern Festival, looking for opportunities to get in touch with Li Yunmu. The rest of the robot and Binglu stayed in the inn, continued to watch through the monitor, and made an agreement Use "anytime, anywhere location tracking" to connect.

Ji Thrush and Ren Jianmo simply ate some dinner in the inn, and then went out with Mo Tiangen and the Fan family siblings.

The five dressed up as ordinary out-of-towners, mixed in the stream of people who put on lanterns and watched the lanterns, and walked to the south bank of the Sishui River.

The river bank has turned into a night market.

The streets are very lively, and there are crowds of tourists, and if you are not careful, you may get separated from your companions.

Anyway, there was no need to worry about the image, Ji Thrush simply circled Ren Jianmo's arm generously, clinging to his lover like a pendant.

Mo Tiangen and the Fan family brothers and sisters have long been used to having two guys in the team who put on flashes and give away dog ​​food all day long. The three of them all looked surprised, and even pretended that they didn't see anything.

When wandering around the city these two days, Ji Thrush had already learned about the customs of Su Tang City River Lantern Festival.

Originally, the lanterns were lit on July [-]th to commemorate the ancestors in the family.

The filial sons and virtuous grandchildren will write what they want to say on the lamp, put it in the river, let the lantern go along the water, and say that it can be delivered to the deceased ancestors.

It's just that this custom has gone through more than two hundred years of changes, and the meaning of its sacrifice has changed unconsciously.

Most of the people who put lights into the river now are female relatives in the city, especially those unmarried ladies who have just left the cabinet.

Girls will write their beautiful vision of marriage and family on the lamps, and then let them go down with the water, hoping to get the protection of their ancestors.

The water of the Sishui River passing through Sutang City is actually quite turbulent. After the river lamp enters the water, it will soon be swept downstream.

There is only a shoal on the south bank, called "Huzui Bay", and the water flow will become as gentle as a stream in the river section of about [-] meters.

So there will be young men in the city driving small boats, using long bamboo poles to salvage the river lanterns put down by the girls, and reading aloud the messages they think are well written.

At this time, if the owner of the lantern also takes a fancy to the boy fishing for the lantern and is willing to come out to claim it, a marriage will be made on the spot.

It is said that the fate brought about by putting the lanterns and fishing the lanterns will be blessed by the ancestors and the river god, and the couple will live a healthy and smooth life, and will never be separated for a long time.

Of course, as a group of outsiders from an unknown number of worlds, Ji Thrush and the others do not have their ancestors in the nether land connected by the Sishui River, and the river god may not be able to take care of the "Peach Blossom Spring", so naturally they are not interested in putting the lights on interest.

However, when Fan Hemian passed a booth, she was stopped by an old man who forced a lantern into her hand.

"How can the girl not turn on the lamp!"

The old man who sold the lamp had a wrinkled face with a smile, and grabbed the hand of the sister of the Fan family and refused to let go, "Look at how beautiful our lamp is, let's buy one!"

Fan Hemian was a little helpless, and didn't want to get entangled with an old lady, so he touched a few copper coins and bought the lantern.

Then, after walking a hundred steps, the sister of the Fan family turned around and stuffed the lantern into Ji Thrush's hand, "Okay, now it belongs to you."

Ji Xiaoniao: "??"

He was at a loss, "Aren't girls the ones who put up the lamps?"

"wrong."

Fan Hemian immediately retorted:

"First, according to the tradition of the Lantern Festival, although most of the people who put the lanterns are young women, they can't let them go without saying anything else; second, you and Mr. Ren are the only couple here, and of course you are here to seek marriage. Appropriate!"

Hearing what sister Fan's family said, Teacher Dagen next to him opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, hesitated for a while, but was still too embarrassed to speak.

So Ji Thrush had no choice but to hold the lantern with one hand and Ren Jianmo's arm with the other, and walked towards the river under the curious eyes of passers-by.

When the five people came to the South Bank, although it was not time to put the lanterns on, the performance of the boat painting was about to begin.

The coast was already crowded with onlookers, and the latecomers didn't even have a place to stay.

"Li Yunmu is on the third floor of the high platform on your left."

Ji Thrush heard the instructions of the manipulator coming from the earphone.

He raised his head and glanced to the left, and sure enough, he saw a three-story grandstand 20 meters away, and a group of well-dressed young masters gathered on the top floor, including Li Yunmu in a crimson brocade robe.

Ji Xiaoniao rolled her eyes, and gently tugged at Ren Jianmo's sleeve, "Let's find a place with a better view, too?"

Ren Jianmo understood.

Like two swimming fishes, the two slipped out of the crowd without a sound, found a big tree with luxuriant branches and leaves near the high platform, and jumped onto the tallest branch lightly and skillfully.

At this time, one of the four painting boats in the river slowly approached the shore. After it stopped at the pier, several young servant girls helped a beautiful woman in costume out of the cabin and stood on the deck.

Ji Thrush has excellent eyesight, and even at a distance of 40 to [-] meters, he can clearly see the woman's face and the blossoming plum blossoms embroidered on her white dress.

The first to appear is the red plum among the four sisters of "plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum".

As a modern person who can enjoy the beauties of four continents and five oceans with just a click of a mobile phone, Ji Xiaoniao feels that this red plum girl can only be regarded as "not bad looking".

But he played the pipa well, and his voice was like an oriole coming out of the valley. After singing a song, it won applause from the shore, and there were a few dandies who were good at music and theory, and they couldn't wait to get on the boat to ask for advice.

Next, Mo Lan and Huang Ju also appeared one after another.

After the two performed their special skills and received numerous praises, they each took their benefactors on board.

In the end, only the most beautiful and mysterious green bamboo is left in the legend.

The fourth painting boat slowly approached the shore, and all the onlookers involuntarily fell silent, and the noise and discussion stopped in an instant, leaving only the rustling wind and rushing water on the banks of the Sishui River.

Unlike the previous three times, what came out of the cabin was not a beautiful lady in a beautiful dress, but seven musicians in white clothes.

They held various musical instruments, sat down on the deck, and started playing and knocking without saying a word.

What the musicians played was a piece of music with a very intense rhythm.

At the climax, a green figure suddenly flew out of the cabin, leaped onto the mast of the boat like a bird spreading its wings, and then spun rapidly in time with the music.

"Wow!"

There was an exclamation on the river bank.

The mast of the painting boat is six or seven meters high, so thin and narrow that it can barely accommodate one person standing on tiptoe.

The audience saw a woman in an emerald green veil standing in such a dangerous place, jumping, spinning, dancing, making all kinds of graceful and extremely difficult poses. While being terrified, they couldn't help being deeply impressed by it.

"Good skill!"

Season thrush sat on a tree branch, staring intently at the woman dancing on the mast, and made a very puzzled evaluation:

"This girl's balance is really amazing!"

When he finished these words, the green bamboo dance also came to an end.

The woman suddenly grabbed a piece of silk hanging from the mast with her hands, wrapped it around her arm, and then jumped up. Amid the exclamation of the crowd, she used the silk as a fulcrum to unload the force, and turned over all the way. Then he fell down.

When it was about to touch the deck, Lv Zhu let go of the satin in his hand, turned over, and landed lightly on the ground.

Ji Thrush: "Amazing!"

He couldn't help applauding the woman in green like everyone else.

After the applause paused, Lv Zhu standing on the deck straightened her dress, saluted the audience on the bank, and then Shi Shiran took off the veil covering the lower half of her face.

"Wow!"

Anyone who stood close enough to see the green bamboo's face couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
