The shop clerk is a boy younger than Jiang He, probably twelve or three years old, but he doesn't know what to eat to grow up, but he is tall and tall, but his childishness is still on his face, so people won't overestimate it his age.

Seeing Jiang He ask him at this time, the shop clerk showed his big white teeth in a smile, "Guest officer, is this your first time visiting our Sunset Town?"

The shop clerk was right, and Jiang He didn't deny it, "That's right, it's my first time here."

"That's right!" The shop waiter clapped his hands, "Only a distinguished guest like you, who is here for the first time, doesn't know about our Lantern Festival in Sunset Town. Woolen cloth!"

I have to say that after staying in a place like an inn where people come and go for a long time, you will indeed be more tactful in dealing with people, especially the waiter who grew up in an inn since he was a child. He practiced proficiently, and after a few words, he not only exaggerated the mystery of the Lantern Festival, aroused the appetite of others, but also complimented Jiang He.

Jiang He was indeed aroused by him, and asked, "What is this Lantern Festival? Is it a festival? Or something else?"

The shop waiter had sold enough, and then slowly opened his mouth, and said, "Guest officer, you guessed right, the Lantern Festival is indeed a kind of festival, but this festival is special. Looking at the entire Chinese world, only our sunset town has it. "

The world of Huaxia is so big, and the waiter in this shop is the only one who speaks. Jiang He felt a little arrogant from the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't control himself from being attracted. After struggling for a moment, he asked, "Then according to what you said, what's wrong with you?" The Lantern Festival can be regarded as the only one in Sunset Town, but I just don’t know, what’s so special about it?”

The waiter in the shop laughed and said, "Guest officer, you don't know anything now, it's okay, I'll explain it to you slowly, boy."

Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a very wealthy family in Luoyang Town. The master and wife of this family had a son. He is a well-known benevolent person who contributes money to build bridges and roads.

When this man grew up, many girls in Luoyang Town had already expressed their love for him, and the matchmakers who came to the door to discuss marriage came round after round, but they didn't see him pay more attention to any daughter.

Then one day, it rained for several days in Luoyang Town, and the accumulated rainwater caused mountain torrents, which destroyed many houses and damaged many roads.

After the rain stopped, the men began to distribute food overnight in order to help those whose homes were washed away by the flood and their wives and children were scattered. Although Sunset Town is a town, it is also prosperous and prosperous. Its area has long surpassed that of the town. .

The man led his troops from the east to the west of the city, and from the south to the north of the city, just to distribute food and clean bedding to the victims.

The city gate was washed away by the flash flood, and the animals in the mountains were killed. In order to survive, a large number of wolves broke into the city at night to look for food. Coincidentally, the wolves happened to meet the team that was resting.

Just at this critical moment, lights suddenly lit up behind the man.

I saw a woman walking out of the building, holding a lantern in her hand, and behind her, many charming girls came out slowly, without exception, all of them were holding a lantern in their hands.

In an instant, a little bit of light lit up the space like a prairie fire.

The wolves were afraid of the fire, and because of the increase in number, they were unwilling to leave at last.

The man's affection for the woman who took the lead in saving them increased sharply, and his heart fell on her.

But the sky is not as expected, the woman was born in Yilou Pavilion, and is the manager of Yilou Pavilion.

The so-called Yilou Pavilion is a dusty place in Sunset Town, and there are all dusty women in it. Although the women have never received guests, in the eyes of innocent people, being born in a dusty place is a sin.

The man's parents refused to let such a woman enter the family, and the man refused to marry someone else. When the two sides were in a stalemate, the war broke out.

The man had no choice but to join the army. On the night when he left, the woman lit a lantern for him all night, just like when they first met.

The man himself knows martial arts and has strategies. After joining the army, he soon gained prestige in the army, and his official position became higher and higher.

It's just that the war has no end. After the war lasted for five full years, the man died in the ever-changing battlefield and killed the enemy general before he died.The enemy country that lost its leader decided to negotiate peace, and the war finally came to an end.

The war is over, but the dead never come back.

When the man left, he was full of spirits, and told the woman that he would marry her when he returned triumphantly.

No matter how beautiful a person is, he is dead when he dies, but the woman insists on marrying the man's corpse. This time, even the man's parents were shocked, and tried every means to persuade him to no avail. Everyone just thought the woman was crazy.

On the day of the man's burial, the woman went. She wore a red wedding gauze, her eyebrows and lips were painted, she was too delicate and charming.

She worshiped heaven and earth on her own, and returned to Yilou Pavilion after the man was buried.

At night, a lot of lanterns floated on the river in the city, one by one like stars twinkling in the sky. Everyone knew that it was a woman offering sacrifices to a man. Many people who had been favored by the man spontaneously made lanterns and put them in the river.

That night, the entire river was covered with lanterns, and the city was as bright as day, and everything seemed to be reborn.

It wasn't until the next day that the woman's body was found in the river inside the city. She was lying among the lanterns with a peaceful face, and she was still wearing the bright red wedding veil.

Speaking of this, the waiter's voice was not as bright and lively as before, but much lower, "Later, the people of Sunset Town commemorated them and called the day when men and women were buried and women died in love as the Lantern Festival."

This is indeed not a very beautiful story. Jiang He heard it from the beginning to the end, and even forgot to eat after listening to it. He held the chopsticks, feeling an indescribable boredom in his heart.

This story reminded him of Qiu Yanjun. She and her short-lived lover were also like this. They didn’t get any good results. What kind of lovers in the world end up getting married? Those are all lies. Otherwise, why did the stories he heard end? All so miserable?

Either one died, or the other died, or both died.

Jiang He squeezed his chopsticks and snorted, "What love, love? If the result is so miserable, it's better not to be infected in the first place, and live happily."

Gu Xingge had picked up a lotus root slice with chopsticks and was about to put it in Jiang He's bowl. When he heard this, he stopped the hand holding the chopsticks, and the lotus root slice he was holding fell directly on the table. Looking at Jiang He's face, trying to get a trace or two out of the latter's face.

His little uncle, are you laughing at yourself?
