There are endless streams of people on the street, the voices of people are buzzing, and the lights are dazzling.

Chidron knew this would happen, luckily he was prepared.

"Hurry up, hurry up!!" Qi Delong took out the veil he had prepared to cover Xiaoyue's face.

Xiao Yue was taken aback, stopped him in a hurry, and said, "What are you doing?"

Qi Delong said: "Masquerade for you, I don't know how many people know Xin Wang in Lidu city, you are so eye-catching, if we are found out, it will be terrible if we run out."

Xiao Yue pushed his hand away, and said with disgust: "Wouldn't it be more eye-catching for me to be a man wearing a mask in the street?"

This man is so ignorant, Qi Delong twitched his lips helplessly, and said, "Oh, you are very eye-catching even if you are not blind."

Chidron motioned him to look at the covered bridge——

On the bridge not far away, many girls with lanterns gathered, and people formed a colorful human wall along the railing.

Xiaoyue was startled by a kiss blown by a girl with exaggerated makeup: "Why are they all looking at me?"

Qi Delong said: "It's right to look at you, and then look over there."

Xiaoyue's gaze passed through the crowded crowd, and landed on the lake with bright river lights——

On a gorgeous gallery boat, the signboard of "Fangfei Building" hung on the bow, it must be a parade vessel of a certain brothel, women in sexy and coquettish clothes met Xiaoyue's gaze, lightly waving their sapphire arms, Each has its own style.

Xiao Yue asked, "Are they waving at me?"

Qi Delong was really fooled by him: "If you don't believe me when I say you are magnificent, then look around."

Xiao Yue did as he did, and on the crowded street, countless Chun Bo and Ling Lie focused their gazes from all angles, including men and women, beautiful and ugly, old and young.

Xiao Yue said again: "Why do men also look at me?"

Chidron: "They're trying to kill you."

"... "

Xiaoyue suddenly felt like a thorn in his back, grabbed the veil in Qi Delong's hand, and said, "I'd better cover it up."

Xiaoyue has always had some misunderstandings about her appearance. She once thought that she was not good enough for Ye Zhao, who is unique in Lang Yan.

Qi Delong looked at him in surprise, and said: "Mr. Pan An, are you really confused or pretending to be confused? Don't you feel that the face is on your body?"

Xiaoyue put on the veil, was slightly startled, thought for a moment and said: "Maybe everyone is a star in modern society, and I never walk on the street like this."

Upon hearing this, Chidron asked, "Is your psychology class usually full?"

Xiao Yue thought for a while and nodded.

"Most of them are female students, right?"

Xiao Yue also nodded.

Chidron was still wondering why he was such a slow-witted man, why he became a professor at such a young age, but now he understands a little bit.

So he stared into Xiaoyue's eyes, shook his head meaningfully, and said: "Who will say that face can't be eaten in the future, I will fight with him."

"Hello!" Xiao Yue stopped the passers-by, "Which place is the busiest here?"

The man said, "Of course it's the most lively place in Lover's Lake."

Xiaoyue: "Lover Lake?"

Another person next to him said: "The Lantern Festival of Rewarding the God is originally the god of marriage. Girls will go to the lover's lake to release river lanterns. Those who leave the court will pay their vows, and those who are not married will pray."

Although Xiaoyue was wearing a veil, he was still a very handsome young man from his figure, voice and noble demeanor, which attracted passers-by to stop one after another.

Under the guise of "selling", the girl selling shadow puppets approached and said, "Isn't the young master a local? But you are going to meet your sweetheart?"

Xiao Yue shook his head and said: "I don't have a sweetheart, I just pass by and want to join in the fun."

The girl said: "The master and the servant should hurry up. A stage is set up beside the lover's lake, and the poetry and lantern riddles will start soon."

"Thank you, girl. I don't know which direction the lake of strangers is in?"

The girl's eyes were bright, and she said cheerfully: "I'm just going there, shall I take you there?"

Xiao Yue nodded lightly: "Thank you."

The girl who sells shadow puppets is not a brainless nympho, and the business seems to be much smoother with Xiaoyue on her side. Many girls take the initiative to ask for prices and buy one or two in order to get a closer look at Xiaoyue.

Qi Delong looked at the shadow puppet girl happily selling along the way, and said to Xiaoyue: "That girl is ugly, but she has a good brain, and she can do marketing by pulling a stranger."

Xiao Yue lowered his voice and said, "Don't be so loud, be careful not to be heard by other girls."

"I heard it when I heard it. She also said that we are master and servant. Am I so bad looking?"

Xiaoyue looked at him, Professor Qi looked a little older than his actual age due to excessive use of his brain, with a medium to thin body, but because he liked to laugh so much, his eyes always had a youthful look, Xiaoyue felt that the so-called handsome old was probably like this.

"Professor Qi."

"what?"

Xiaoyue saw the five huge lanterns of the "Fenghua Poetry Cocktail Party" from a distance: "The people in the imperial official post know me, you can ask for directions to find Chu Yu later, and bring her to the Poetry Cocktail Party to find me."

"no problem."

As soon as Qi Delong finished answering, he felt that something was wrong, and said again: "Hey, you boy, you look so weak, you are quite good at calling people."

Xiao Yue chuckled and said, "Yes, I'm so weak, Professor Qi can do more work."

If he hadn't come to this place out of nowhere, Xiaoyue really didn't know that he was so weak, probably because the civilized society in the 21st century is too much like a greenhouse.

"Huh? Where is your servant?"

The shadow puppet girl's crisp voice sounded, and Xiaoyue came back to his senses and looked around, and Qi Delong had run away without a trace.

Xiao Yue said: "He went shopping in front, thank you girl for leading the way."

"My lord, you are welcome."

Saying goodbye to the shadow puppet girl briefly, Xiaoyue came to the stage of the poetry reception, and it took a lot of effort to get out of the pushing crowd to the front seat.

The host is a short little old man with triangular eyes, perhaps to add festive color, and his painted face looks extraordinarily funny, like an old version of Chaplin.

When Xiaoyue saw him, the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

Chaplin knocked on the gong three times: "Everyone, I would like to congratulate you for your safe life, double dragons playing pearls, Sanyang Kaitai, four seasons getting rich, five blessings, six and six Dashun, and seven stars holding the moon." , Eight-faced wind, nine luck, perfect!"

"it is good!!!"

There was a burst of cheers and applause from the crowd.

The inheritance of Xiaoyuejue is really a very magical thing. This kind of cross talk rhetoric comes from ancient times. Although it is a well-rehearsed Guankou, it is very comfortable to listen to.

Chaplin: "Okay, now is the highlight of our Lantern Festival, buddy, serve the wine!!"

There was another burst of overwhelming cheers, and several people dressed as juniors carried a long table onto the stage, with large jars full of wine and porcelain bowls filled with light.

Chaplin said again: "Last year at the Lantern Festival, a mysterious spectator won the first prize with a poem on drinking wine. Today, the first poem also came to the scene, in the noble pavilion of Xianle Restaurant opposite."

Xiao Yue followed the crowd to look at the restaurant across the street.

Xianle Restaurant is a three-story loft-style building, with mahogany and blue tiles, decorated with lights and festoons. Behind the curtain on the third floor, candlelight is flickering, reflecting the tall and straight silhouette of a man.

Chaplin's voice drew everyone's attention back: "The rules of the competition remain the same. As soon as my gong sounds, judges who are participating, please step forward, and judges who are not participating, please step out of the red line. I will randomly select guests to write poems. With wine as the topic, whoever's poem can impress the poet chief in Xianle Restaurant, the gong upstairs will ring, and he is this year's chief poet!!"

"Bang-"

"I'll come first!" one of the crowd shouted, "The wine is sparkling, one bowl, two bowls, three or four bowls!!"

"Hahahahaha——" the audience roared with laughter.

This poem has no talent at all. Xiaoyue thinks that it is probably the sailors installed by the organizer. It mainly plays the role of setting off the atmosphere and leading the way. The assistant took the lead in raising his hand to ask questions.

Of course, Xiaoyue didn't need it. His students often fought to answer his questions.

"A talented man fights wine with a hundred poems, and I talk about thousands of mountains when drunk."

"Meet bosom friends in the wine country, drink together to comfort my heart."

"Drunk and whip the horse to come, drunk as if flying on the clouds and fog."

Xiaoyue was slender and stood out in the crowd, and several girls squeezed towards him, but Xiaoyue moved forward and accidentally moved to the first place in the front row.

"One pot of love is more expensive, two pots of righteousness wins gold."

"..." Xiao Yue was suddenly pointed at.

The scene cooled down for a while.

Chaplin: "Damn, our young man standing in the first row is still wearing a veil. He must be shy. Everyone applauds and encourages him!!"

There was another burst of overwhelming applause, and Xiaoyue was distracted and forgot to back out of the red line.

With everyone's expectant eyes on him, he mulled over a poem from a textbook in high school, and read it casually: "Lanling's fine wine and tulips, and the jade bowl filled with amber light. It's a foreign land."

"... "

For a while after his voice fell, the people around fell silent, only the noise from the other side of the long street could be heard from afar.

Xiaoyue was stunned, he recited Li Bai's poems casually, this was an original poetry meeting, and reciting other people's poems seemed inappropriate.

"I……"

Just as he was about to explain, he heard the sound of gongs and drums above Xianle Restaurant.

"Bang——"

Chaplin: "Congratulations, sir! Please go upstairs!!"

"great!"

"Young master is amazingly talented, what a poem!!"

"My lord reveals his face and let me see his face!"

"Yes, reveal!"

"Exposing..."

Oops.Xiao Yue said heartily.
