Turning on the light
"Many people are turning on the lights!" Chengfeng exclaimed softly.
There were countless women on the shore of the lake, squatting on the shore and pushing the light pink lotus lanterns in their hands into the lake.
The palm-sized light drifted away with the water waves, shaking on the lake surface, and the candlelight reflected on the lake surface, which looked very beautiful.
Fang Qingya exclaimed and said in confusion: "These women are all wearing the same clothes."
Most of the women who set up lamps by the lake were wearing white gauze skirts, red belts, long hair tied up, and a few colorful silk flowers were worn on their buns, covering their faces with red gauze.
Chu looked at the boats in the lake one after another. There were still women who were lit up their lamps and walked down the stone steps on the lake to the shore with lotus lanterns.
"They are all maids on this boat." She turned her head, "There are still people who set up eternal lights over there."
Chengfeng also looked over: "Yes, they all came down from the lake."
There were maids on the shore and on the boat not far away, lit the eternal lights and released them in the sky. The eternal lights lit among the fireworks in the sky were leisurely rising.
Fang Qingya looked around: "There are also ordinary monks."
Many vendors on the shore made lotus lanterns and eternal lanterns to sell them here. Interested monks also put them out after they sold them.
Chengfeng was eager to try: "Let's buy a lamp too?"
Chu Jinsui was only curious: "Is so many people just to look good? Is this a custom in Yongye City?"
There were too many lotus lanterns on the lake and eternal lights in the air, which almost illuminated the lake. It was as bright as daytime, and there were maids going back and forth on the boat and the shore.
"A Yue, do you know that Eternal Night City has such a custom?"
Lou Bianyue also shook her head: "I haven't heard it."
Chengfeng glanced at the vendor next to him: "We'll buy a lamp, too."
She pulled Chu Jinsui over and said, "Boss, I want two eternal lights."
Fang Qingya also ran over to join in the fun: "I want it too, and the boss wants three eternal lights!"
Chu Jinsui turned his head slightly, and the tall young man stood aside like a bamboo. This lively atmosphere made him look a little lonely.
"A Yue, come and let it go together!"
Chu Jinsui said to the boss again: "I want one more."
The boss smiled and handed them the lamp, pointing to the small table beside him: "What wishes do you have to write on the eternal light? If the eternal light does not fall for three days, the wish will come true."
A trick to cheat children.
But Fang Qingya really took this set: "Really? Can any wish be realized?"
The boss smiled kindly: "Yes."
Chu Jinshui handed another lamp in his hand to Lou Bianyue: "When you go to the countryside, let's make a wish too."
Fang Qingya and Chengfeng in front of the table over there were already holding pens and frowning at the thought of what wish they wanted to make.
"What wish did you make?" Fang Qingya asked, "I wrote that I hope my family will be safe, and I can also be safe on the road."
Chengfeng put down his pen: "Don't you know that your wish will not work if you say it?"
Fang Qingya opened his eyes wide: "Ah? There is another saying, no, let me see yours!"
Chengfeng hugged the lamp in his arms: "I won't show it to you! Go away quickly, be careful I will beat you!"
Chu Jinsui watched them fight, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised slightly, and he lifted the pen and slowly fell on the note—
There is today every year, and there is today every year.
She hung the written note on the eternal light, held the light, walked to the stall, and asked inadvertently: "Boss, why are there so many people in Yongye City turning on the lights? Is this a custom in the city?"
The boss put the lights on the stall: "Yes, we turn on the lights every seventh day of the month. Some of them are monks from outside. It looks interesting to turn on the lights, so they will also put them together."
"Look, the tree in the middle of the lake is the spiritual tree that has guarded Eternal Night City for thousands of years. We are all praying for the spiritual tree."
Chu Jinsui looked in the direction of the boss's finger, but she didn't notice that there was a tall tree in the center of several yard ships in the middle of the lake.
I was blocked by the boat just now, and now several boats have sailed away before the trees have been exposed.
The tree is tall and stout, but it has no flowers or leaves, and looks like it is dead.
The boss smiled and said, "You can see the blossoms later, it's much better than turning on the lights!"
"Blooming?" After Chengfeng finished writing, he walked over with the lamp in his arms and happened to hear their conversation, "What is Blooming?"
The boss pointed to the tree: "Of course the tree is blooming! That is really a rare wonder!"
"As long as there are enough lamps, the sacred tree will bloom when it feels our wishes and blessings."
Fang Qingya was amazed: "There is such a thing, so I have to take a good look later."
Chengfeng nodded, "Yes, let's go and turn on the lights too."
The maids and monks on the shore release the lights in their hands.
Chu Jinsui also released the eternal light in his hand and let the light fly slowly into the air.
Fang Qingya narrowed his eyes: "Let me see, I hope it will go smoothly..."
Before he finished speaking, Chengfeng covered his mouth: "Don't say it! It won't work if it says it! Don't look at my lights, I really want to beat you!"
Chu Jinsui bent her eyes with amusement, her eyes casually swept across the eternal lights that the moon was flying beside the building, and the note was empty: "Didn't A Yue make a wish?"
Yue's eyes flew high with the lights on the shore, and the light on the shore shone his side face softer: "Well, there is no wish to make."
"It's almost blooming!" A noisy sound came from the crowd.
Upon hearing this, Chu looked towards the center of the lake this year.
At some point, the lotus lanterns placed on the lake floated towards the center of the lake where the dead tree was, and were unknowingly surrounded by the trees.
Fluorescence leaked from the lotus lanterns and eternal lamps and fell on the dead trees.
This scene was shocking, it was really like what the vendor said, the sacred tree was listening to people's wishes.
The fluorescent light in the air was like tens of thousands of fireflies flying towards the center of the lake.
For a moment, the crowd was silent for a moment, as if shocked by the scene.
"Oh my God, the sacred tree heard our wish!"
"It's about to bloom!"
“…”
Chengfeng and Fang Qingya were also very surprised.
"Fang Qingya, please get out of here! You're blocking me! I'm going to lose sight!"
"Okay, okay, I'll get out of here."
Chu Jinsui turned his head and happened to meet the sight of Lou Bianyue.
His eyes fell around her.
Chu Jinsui didn't know so: "What's wrong?"
Lou Bianyue raised her hand: "Didn't you notice that some of these fluorescence fall on us?"
Um?
Chu Jinsui hurriedly looked down and there were indeed a few fluorescence falling on himself and A Yue.
She looked up at the surroundings and saw a few fluorescence spots falling beside Fang Qingya and Chengfeng, but they didn't notice it at all.
The maids and other monks standing on the shore were clean and there was no trace of fluorescence.
She frowned unconsciously: "What's going on?"
