The Lantern Festival on the [-]th day of the first lunar month is a lively Lantern Festival. Lantern riddles attract literati, dancers, and writers to make a noise. If you guess right, you will get cheers, and if you guess wrong, you will be booed without malice.

Tao Shi shook his head while watching and said, "This year's lantern riddles are really boring, there are just a few that go around and around, and they still look good."

Pei Xun said with a smile: "If you think it's boring, why don't you drag me out? If it's easy, you can guess a few to win the top prize."

Tao Shi pointed at him and said, "Look at it and make fun of me, and won the first prize. Maybe Mr. Pei wants to marry me in."

Pei Xun pushed aside the crowd with a disgusted expression and walked forward: "I'm married to you, and I don't mind making a fuss."

Tao Shi shook his head and followed him out of the city.

On this day, the moat outside the city suddenly had the same divine power as the temple, attracting many men and women to make wishes here, the lights were brightly lit, and they drifted away with the candlelight.Pei Xun stood in front of the hawker's stall and watched for a while, selected two lotus lanterns, paid the money and waited for Tao Shi.Before he took two steps, Pei Xun's heart beat suddenly, his whole body went numb, and before he could react, this feeling disappeared again, as if it was just a hallucination.As soon as he took a step, the lantern in his hand was knocked off. Pei Xun raised his eyes to see the person, and his whole body trembled in shock.I saw the man with cold eyes, dressed in black, like a beast hiding in the dark staring at its prey, waiting for the right time to show its fangs, Pei Xun was stiff all over, until the man put the lotus lantern in his hand I didn't even notice it, and let it fall.The man gave a "tsk" sound and picked up the lotus lantern again. The lotus lantern fell apart twice and fell apart.Pei Xun didn't realize it until he made a sound, and he kept comforting himself that the person in front of him was just a person, not a beast.Seeing the lotus lantern in his hand, he quickly took it and said, "I lost my mind, it's too rude, I'll buy another lotus lantern." The man who was staring at the lotus lantern turned his eyes back to Pei Xun's face, That look made Pei Xun suffocate a little, and he didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the man nodded and left.

Suddenly he was patted behind him, and Pei Xun was so startled that he threw all the lotus lanterns in his hand to the ground, but he heard Tao Shi's voice: "Hey, it's a pity for these two lotus flowers, but fortunately we want to go together. "After that, he raised two lotus lanterns in front of him.

"It's terrible." Pei Xun has not recovered from that look.

"What's so scary?"

Pei Xun glanced at the lotus lanterns, picked one up and walked towards the river bank: "I actually have the same taste as you."

Tao Shi was unhappy when he heard it, and chased him, "How do you say that, we have been friends for many years, and there is a good saying, people of like flock together, but the same taste does not just mean that we are destined."

Pei Xun glanced at him and said, "Don't put gold on your face, I saw it when I bought it, and there were not many tricks."

Tao Shi took out the torch and lit candles for the two of them, put them into the lotus lantern, and said dissatisfiedly: "Well, who wants to be like you, and I don't know who is giving money."

Pei Xun pretended not to hear, put the note into the lotus lantern, waited for the people who put the lanterns in front to leave, and imitated their hands together, and then pushed the lotus lanterns into the river to watch them drift away carrying their wishes.

"May everyone meet each other year after year..."

"I said you, you don't want people to read what you write, but you have to read what I wrote every time." Tao Shi grabbed the note and complained.

Pei Xun made a disdainful voice and said, "It's the same sentence every year, and I know it even if I don't read it."

Tao Shi turned around and finished writing the rest of the words, then returned the pen to the peddler and said, "Then you still need to read it every year."

Pei Xun stood watching him let go of the lotus lantern and said, "It's just that I didn't expect you to be such a long-term lover."

Tao Shi chuckled: "Is this a compliment?"

Pei Xun answered irrelevantly and asked: "Long love can tell the suffering in the world."

Tao Shi was a little confused, so he thought for a while and said, "You still haven't told me what wish you made?"

Pei Xun talked about it from left to right: "Brother Tao never changes his wish, it's like this every year."

Tao Shi replied: "In my opinion, this wish has changed, and it has not changed."

"I hope brother Tao can explain a thing or two."

Tao Shi led him to a wine stall, and said as he walked: "Every year, everyone is the same. Every year, this sentence is regarded as the same, but no one around me is really the same all the time. Every year, I meet new people. Look. People who meet each other become close friends, Wen Wen Huo and Huo become friends who nod, those who don't like it try to avoid them as much as possible, I mean the same people, meaning that the number of close friends around you increases every year, and they are there every year." Then he sighed and said : "This wish is too difficult, so I think about it many times."

Pei Xun picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "It's really a good meaning."

Tao Shi pressed his hand and said, "You haven't told me what your wish is."

Pei Xun smiled and said, "Didn't I say that if you can see it, I'll let you see it."

Tao Shi waved his hands and said: "I turned around, you didn't know when you wrote it, if I hadn't checked you carefully before going out, I would have doubted whether you had written it in advance."

"That's fine, you can blame me if you can't see it yourself."

Tao Shi didn't like him: "If you have any wish, you can't say it openly. At worst, I won't laugh at you."

Pei Xunqu tapped Tao Shi twice with his index finger: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Tao Shi rubbed his forehead and said aggrievedly: "I always feel that you are careless in everything you do, and I suspect that your wishes are not very sincere."

Pei Xun sighed secretly for his persistence, he must be made to forget about making a wish, so he waved to the front and shouted: "What a coincidence."

Tao Shi turned his head and asked curiously, "Who is your name?"

Pei Xun thought to himself, how do I know, whoever is called will be the one.His eyes searched the crowd, and his eyes stopped on a person, it was him!The body froze for a moment.

Tao Shi glanced at Pei Xun, followed his gaze, and saw that the man in black was looking for something, and Pei Xun sat still, Tao Shi thought that Pei Xun had mistakenly thought that the man had already seen He got up, so he got up and went to meet the man.

"Tao Shi!" Pei Xun understood his meaning and shouted quickly, but he didn't want to draw the man's gaze too loudly. Pei Xun was caught by that gaze, and fear sprouted in his heart.

Tao Shi looked back at Pei Xun, seeing that he hadn't moved any more, he was a little confused.After hesitating for a while, Tao Shi still walked towards the man, bowed his head and said, "I'm Tao Shi, I'm Pei Xun's friend, and now I want to invite you to talk."

The man was about to leave, but as soon as his body moved, his eyes followed Tao Shi's hand, and he turned around and walked towards Pei Xun.

Tao Shi came over with a smile and said, "Brother Pei, hurry up and introduce us."

Pei Xun twitched uncomfortably, opened his mouth not knowing what to say, but the man opened his mouth: "Unsteady in the clouds." His voice was clear and cold, full of arrogance.

Tao Shi has observed him carefully, he walks steadily and briskly like the wind, this person must be a master.The Tao family is originally a family of martial arts, and they cherish the talents of those with high kung fu, and they don't care much about that person's cold talk. They only think that they have true martial arts talents, and they are proud and proud, and they cupped their hands and said: "In Xiajing Tao Shi of the Tao family, may I ask which son of the Ling family is the young master?" Anyone who is in the capital knows that the Tao family has "General Weiyuan's Mansion" on the plaque at the gate of the Tao family. There is a saying: Don't be proud of your achievements.Unless he is a son with military merits, he is not allowed to mention the name of General Weiyuan outside.Tao Shi was well-versed in the capital, but he had never heard of the Ling family, so he asked this question.

Yun Bugu sat down next to Pei Xun and said, "Small place, not worth mentioning."

Tao Shi couldn't keep asking, so Pei Xun squeezed out a smile, poured a glass of wine for Yun Bugu and said, "Since I came from a long way, I must respect Brother Ling for a glass of wine."

Yun Bugu didn't pick up the wine glass, and looked at him with a half-smile, making cold sweat run down his back.It's too weird, Pei Xun thought, Tao Shi will soon see something is wrong.

Tao Shi really sensed that something was wrong, and said: "You..." The unfinished words stuck in his throat, Yun Bugu drank the wine with Pei Xun's hand, and got up to speak close to Pei Xun A whisper, and then left Pei Xun said expressionlessly: "I've finished drinking, I'm taking my leave."

Tao Shi looked at Yun Bugu's back and said, "Why is this person a bit strange? I said Pei Xun, where did you know such a friend? Why have you never heard of it before?"

Pei Xun met Tao Shi's questioning eyes, stood up slowly and said, "It's getting late, let's go back first."

Only then did Tao Shi notice that something was wrong with Pei Xun, and worried: "What's wrong?"

Pei Xun shook his head: "It's nothing, I think I drank too much."

Tao Shi was still muttering to the side how he could get drunk if he didn't drink much, Pei Xun listened with his head down, and there were bursts of burning heat in his ears, and the man's voice was still lingering in his ears: "This cup The wine is my lotus lantern for you. Also, you are afraid of what I will do."
