Chapter 34 The Temple Fair in the City
The sunset enveloped the mountains with orange tenderness, and Zhong Liting woke up in the tenderness of the sky.

When he just opened his eyes, Zhong Liting's eyes were a little dazed, and soon he turned around quickly, until his eyes caught the figure of the child, his eyes gradually settled down.

Ruhuahua sat quietly in front of him not far away and looked at him, tightly holding the sleeve arrow in her hand.

Zhong Liting noticed that the arrow in the sleeve arrow in her hand was empty.

"What's wrong?" When he spoke, his eyes swept around quickly.

Before Ru Huahua could speak, Zhong Liting saw not far from the two of them, a big snake with a thick wrist, brown and black stripes all over its body, and its head pierced by a short arrow.

The big snake was not completely dead, it was still struggling and curling up on the ground.

Zhong Liting's eyes flickered, he got up quickly, stepped forward a few steps forward, stepped on Qicun to pull out the short arrow, and then threw the snake far away.

After finishing all this, he walked up to Ruhuahua in two steps, "Why didn't you call me?"

Ru Huahua raised her head with a pale face, closed her eyes tightly, and said slowly, "...Brother is sleeping."

She didn't want to wake him up, she wanted him to rest for a while.

Zhong Liting accepted her kindness, and watched her up and down: "Did the snake bite you?"

Ruhuahua shook her head, "No."

Zhong Liting heaved a sigh of relief and asked again, "Scared?"

Ru Hua raised her head and looked at him: "...Brother, I'm not a kid anymore, I'm really amazing."

At the very beginning, when she saw the snake hanging above Zhong Liting's head, hissing and spitting out the red letter, she was actually a little scared.

But when she reacted, her hand had already grabbed it.The sticky and cold touch still clings to her like maggots eating away at the bones.

Zhong Liting saved the child's face, pretending not to see her pale complexion, skipped the topic, and stretched out his hand to her, "Get up, it's cold on the ground."

Ruhuahua rubbed her hand on her clothes vigorously, then stretched it out, allowing Zhong Liting to pull her up from the ground.

Standing up, Ru Huahua lowered her head and saw Zhong Liting's waist: "Brother's belt is ready?"

Zhong Liting replied casually, "Are you hungry?" It's been a day.

Ruhuahua immediately nodded like garlic.

"Poor thing, I've been hungry all day, don't grow taller anymore," Zhong Liting stroked her head soothingly, "Shall we eat snake soup at night?"

Hearing this, Ru Huahua suddenly took a deep breath: "...Actually, I don't seem to be very hungry all of a sudden, brother."

Zhong Liting was serious: "Then save it for tomorrow morning?"

Ruhuahua: "I won't be hungry tomorrow..."

"Such a big snake is enough for several meals. Do you like steamed or stewed?"

Ruhuahua suddenly became a little ashamed and annoyed: "Brother!"

"Okay," Zhong Liting smiled, "Go put on the cloak and get on the horse."

Zhong Liting bent down to pick up the cloak, shook off the dust, and threw it to Ruhuahua.

Ru Huahua carefully fastened the strap of her cloak, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, are we going back?"

Zhong Liting looked at her, "Well, you don't want to go back?"

"Not at all," Ru Huahua murmured softly, "I just think it's rare to come out."

Hearing this, Zhong Liting pondered slightly, "...Actually, I'm not in a hurry to go back. Today is Yuanshuo, and there is no curfew in the city. If I remember correctly, there should be a temple fair all night long."

temple fair?

Ruhuahua suddenly became interested, and asked curiously, "What is a temple fair?"

Zhong Liting thought about it: "On some special days, there will be activities such as sacrificial offerings and prayers inside and outside the temple, and there should be performances such as lantern market singing and dancing. Because there are many people going, there are many vendors waiting for the opportunity to rush there. , selling all kinds of food and gadgets, all night long, quite lively."

There is a curfew in Zhongrong, but the curfew will be lifted according to the law on some special festivals, and many markets are always lit all night.

Ruhuahua couldn't help swallowing, "Is there a lot of food in the temple fair?"

Zhong Liting glanced down at her, "Aren't you very hungry?"

Ruhuahua bit her lips: "...Well, that's something you can barely eat."

"Okay, then just eat a little bit." Zhong Liting smiled slightly, got on the horse, and stretched out his hand to pull her.

Compared with the speed when they came, they are now much slower.Zhong Liting was not in a hurry to leave, and rode slowly to the city.

After entering the city gate, the more people walked in, the more people there were. Zhong Liting found a place to store his horses, and then led Ruhuahua to the temple fair on foot.

The temple fair became more and more lively as it went further in. Lanterns were hung high on both sides of the street, and there was a fiery red eye-catching everywhere. Colorful banners and advertisements were flying high in the wind. There were crowds of people everywhere, layers upon layers of bustling, and the air was filled with Lively and full of New Year flavor.

The most crowded are the various performances at the temple fair, various juggling, lion dance, opera, singing and dancing, etc. Some of the stages are set up so high that people can see them from the outside.

Ruhuahua misunderstood, and saw a person not far away holding a long torch, who turned over in a flower stand position, when he got up, he suddenly pointed at the torch, and with a bang, he spit out a long string of fire dragons from his mouth.

"Wow... brother, brother!" Ru Huahua's eyes widened, and she pulled Zhong Liting's robe beside her in shock, as if she had discovered a new world, she shouted excitedly, "That person can spit fire , He is so powerful, let's learn from him!"

This skill is amazing. If she really learned it, wouldn't she be able to make a fire casually in the future? Thinking about it, I think it's amazing.

Zhong Liting glanced at the direction she was pointing at, "Can you teach me his housekeeping skills?"

Ru Huahua picked her fingers, "Then can't I worship him as a teacher?"

That's fire...

"Then you might as well beg me," Zhong Liting said with a lack of interest, "The reason for spitting out fire is because there is something in your mouth, usually rosin powder is used more."

"...It looks like this." Ruhua lowered her head in frustration.

It turned out that it wasn't that person who could spit fire.

But she really wanted to learn from a teacher just now.

Ruhuahua has not been lost for a long time, and there are more than one family of different kinds of strange armor-tunning techniques. Soon, her eyes were frightened by the distant scene again.

It was a middle-aged man, with his head up, his mouth wide open, and a long sword slowly stuffed in from his mouth.

Seeing that there was almost only one hilt left of the man's stuffing, Ruhuahua exclaimed in amazement: "Brother, brother! Look! That uncle over there, he actually swallowed such a long sword into his stomach! "

Zhong Liting raised his eyes slightly, "Yes."

"Ah! Brother, look, he swallowed it again!" Ru Huahua couldn't help opening her mouth.I admire him very much, "Doesn't his stomach hurt like this? Will he not die?"

Such a long sword, how painful it must be.

"One minute on stage, ten years off stage, it's all done through practice."

Ruhua raised her neck, tried to gesture with her fingers, and couldn't help retching.
