Chapter 163 Dance of the Celestial Maiden
The flower girls danced in two pieces with their white hands holding the ribbons, and the colorful silk flew up and down, like a rainbow bridge in the clouds, and when they rotated, they looked like a colorful tornado. The girls' slightly green dance posture attracted the attention of the people below the audience, and one raised his hand and the other looked back was all fascinating.
Just as the onlookers were attracted by these flower girls, no one noticed that the back of the flower platform was behind the curtain on the third floor of Yilan Building. Zi Yuan was pulling the curtain apart and looking down from the gap, most of the paper lanterns were concentrated on the lower side of the second floor, so no one noticed the curtain in the darkness on the third floor.
Ziyuan looked at the dancing movements of the flower girls on the flower platform and judged the opportunity to jump. After a backward dance move, Caishu rolled near the floor of the flower platform. When the guests were all focused on the flower platform, Ziyuan jumped forward and was already floating in the air the next moment.
The eyes of the onlookers were following the colorful silk in the hands of the group dance flower girl. Suddenly, the girls threw the silk belts in their hands into the air. Everyone looked up and happened to see Ziyuan staying in the air in the posture of the goddess dancing.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet. Some people half opened their mouths and pointed their fingers towards the direction of Ziyuan in the air. Some people subconsciously closed their hands together. The white smoke brought by the burning of charcoal was floating in the air. The colorful silk tied to Ziyuan's body floated in the ethereal white smoke. In conjunction with the dance movements of the flower girls on the flower platform, the colorful silk danced up and down, further highlighting Ziyuan's still and graceful figure.
Seeing that the time had come, Hua Mian raised his hand in the direction of the main building. The main building of Yilan Building lit up at the same time. He should have arranged people next to the front railings of each window in advance, waiting for Hua Mian's instructions, and then ignited the lights in his hand together. Yilan Building was surrounded by a ball of orange warm light, reflecting half of the sky as if it was ignited.
At this time, in the royal capital, people were busy working day, sitting in front of the door to eat or sitting by the bridge to cool off. Women chatted in groups of three or three, and a group of children ran past the streets. A few faint candles brought a little light to the people here.
Suddenly a little boy was jumping and stopped, raised his arm and pointed it into the distance, "What is that?"
Hearing his words, several children stopped playing and looked in the direction of his fingers. The adults who suddenly couldn't hear the sound of the children's games wanted to see what happened to the children. When they looked at the place where the children stood, they found that something seemed wrong today. The children who were naughty like monkeys on weekdays looked quietly in the same direction at this time.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
"Where are sacrificial activities?"
"No, it's impossible. It's already sunset. Nowhere will the Orchid Festival sacrifice be held after sunset."
"But if it weren't for a sacrifice, such light would not be allowed in the royal capital, and that location was not where the palace was."
Hearing the people who were enjoying the cool air, an old man shook his head and said, "Have you forgotten? There is another place that is allowed to use lights after sunset..."
