After Guo Zheng returned to Yu Jin, his legs were weak. What he muttered in his heart was: "It's over, it's over, the princess is going to elope with Ah Si. Why am I so unlucky, and I finally escaped the fate of being eaten by a scorpion?"

Why do you have to encounter something like this again? I will definitely be beheaded by the prince when I go back."

Guo Zheng was still walking in a hurry at the General's Mansion when he accidentally bumped into Lao Jin who was out for a stroll. Seeing Guo Zheng's panic, Lao Jin asked, "Brother Guo, what's wrong with you? Let's go see the star together later.

It’s a festival, I’ve participated in it several times before, and it’s very lively.”

When Guo Zheng saw that the person he bumped into was Lao Jin, he immediately pulled him aside and said, "Brother, you're dead this time."

Lao Jin asked strangely: "Brother Guo, what's wrong? Even the giant scorpions in the desert didn't eat us. Now we've arrived in Qin. There are so many people here protecting us. What are you afraid of?"

Guo Zheng said in Lao Jin's ear: "Princess is going to elope with Ah Si!"

"Ah!" Lao Jin exclaimed and realized something was wrong. He immediately covered his mouth with his hands and whispered, "Brother Guo, don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing."

At this time, Guo Zheng also talked about the appointment between Yu Jin and Ah Si, and asked Lao Jin to help make up his mind.

Lao Jin took out his dry tobacco stick from his waist, filled it with shredded tobacco, lit it and took a puff, saying, "Brother Guo, think about it, if there weren't Ah Si, Ah Da, and that young master, where would we be now?"

Already?"

Guo Zheng said directly: "Don't you even think about it? All the flesh and blood eaten by those scorpions will be gone. It may be even worse than the guards we sent a ride with at that time. Even the bones are still looking at the wind and the sun in the desert.

Sunbathing."

Lao Jin smiled and said, "That's fine."

Guo Zhengdao: "How do you say this?"

Lao Jin said: "Now I can still smoke a puff of cigarette, and I can still chat with you after eating here. Why should we worry about what we will do next? To put it bluntly, our lives are taken care of by others.

Come back. Even if they want to run away and we are all beheaded, then kill them. We deserve to live happily for a few more days."

Upon hearing this, Guo Zheng said: "Brother, you are really my brother, and you are too open-minded. I thought you were open-minded that night with the giant scorpion, but I didn't expect that you are more open-minded now."

Lao Jin said: "We have experienced life and death, how can we still not look away? Besides, it hasn't happened yet. Maybe the princess and Ah Si just want to get together one last time."

Guo Zhengdao: "Yes, yes, maybe they just want to get together. People like my brother Ah Si who understand the righteousness will not do such a thing as kidnapping the princess."

Lao Jin laughed and said: "Okay, okay, let's go. Let's go out for a walk first and talk about the rest later. Even if you behead, I will accompany you."

After hearing this, Guo Zheng was moved and said: "Brother, you are really closer than my own brother. This time you will follow me back to the capital of Jin State. Then I will find someone to help you open a small shop and do some business. You will be here

Stay in the capital of the Jin Kingdom forever."

Lao Jin took a puff of dry tobacco and said, "We'll talk about it then. I have to go see my precious grandson first."

"Okay, I will go with you to see it." Guo Zheng took one of the masks in his hand and gave it to Lao Jin, "Brother, please wait for me here. I have to tell one of my subordinates to do something first.

Come right away."

Anyway, it was still a little while before Youshi, so Lao Jin took advantage of the situation to put on his mask and smoked dry smoke and said: "It's not in a hurry, you can go ahead."

Guo Zheng hurried back to the guest room where he and his two men were staying. When they arrived at the room, Lao Liao and the two guards were waiting for Guo Zheng to give them masks when he came back and go out to play.

Guo Zheng looked at the two men and didn't know which one to choose for him to wear the princess's mask with the cloud and fire pattern. In the end, he had to let the two of them guess the game first.

The two guards didn't know the consequences of winning or losing, and they were still guessing casually. In the end, the medium-sized guard lost. He laughed and said to Guo Zheng: "Boss, I lost, what are you going to do?"

Guo Zheng looked at him sympathetically, and then said to him: "Wait a minute and come with me to the princess's room to change clothes."

The medium-sized guard looked at his body and said, "I've already changed. These clothes are still new."

Guo Zheng said seductively: "This is the princess's order."

The medium-sized guard didn't know what to say.

They went to Yujin's room together, and when they came out, they all put on masks. The guard wearing a cloud-fire pattern mask and women's clothing was crying under the mask. He hated Guo Zheng for why he didn't follow him earlier.

He said that now he had no choice but to leave the general's mansion and run outside, and later he had to get rid of the people who were following him and find a place to hide.

Today, Yujin wears a mask with a wooden fire pattern, a man's bun with a black jade hairpin on her head, a dark blue brocade dress, a carp jade pendant around her waist, and a folding fan in her hand, as she does at Jinmen

Guan looked exactly the same when she went to the night market. She followed Granny Guo Zhengji and the others out of the General's Mansion unhurriedly, and then she saw the guard wearing his own clothes getting into the crowd like a rabbit, and dozens of people flew out from the eaves of the General's Mansion.

A man in black chased him out.

Yujin said to everyone: "Let's go, you are free today, you can play how you want."

When Guo Zheng and the others heard this, they also joined the crowd one after another.

People were passing by on the street, and soon Yujin could no longer see Granny Guo Zhengji and the others. Yujin suddenly felt like she was in a place where no one knew her, and she could do whatever she wanted. She was like a little girl.

He continued to look at the items on the surrounding stalls, and then followed the crowd towards the eye-catching fire tower on the square.

Yujin took an unlit torch from a nearby merchant. These are provided by merchants for free to foreign guests, hoping that they will have a sense of integration as if they were in the country and do as the Romans do. The people here hold torches brought from their own homes.

Because their elders said that praying in this way will be more effective.

Yujin looked at the crowded crowd around her, and suddenly remembered that she had not asked Guo Zheng what color mask Ah Si was wearing. But at this time, she was in a very relaxed mood, and felt that if there was really no fate, it would be fine if she could not meet Ah Si.

God’s will, there is no need to force it anymore.

As soon as Unity Hour arrived, the surrounding crowd became quiet. An old man with gray hair wearing a red fire mask walked towards the fire tower step by step with the help of a young man wearing a cyan mask. Everyone's eyes were on the old man.

No one would think that he was slow in his actions, but rather thought that it was a blessing. He was the oldest and most senior man in the whole Zhennanguan. He tremblingly struck the flint and lit the fire under the fire tower in the oldest way.

The fire was burning, and the flames burned along the long wooden bars piled up on all sides of the fire tower, until a rising flame ignited at the top.

The old man wearing a red fire mask shouted: "The fire welcoming ceremony is completed and the fire passing ceremony begins!"

After that, the crowd began to light the torches in their hands in an orderly manner with the fire on the fire tower. Yujin also lit the torch in front of someone, then leaned the torch in her hand against the fire tower and lit it. Under the mask, she pouted and secretly said

: "Let me tell you, God, you won't let me be with Ah Si even for the last day, right?"

Yujin was just thinking in her mind, and then she realized that her other hand was being held tightly. The temperature of that palm and the feeling of that hand were what she dreamed about. As soon as Yujin turned around, she saw Lan

The gentle, watery eyes in the mask of Se Tianhuo, there is light and she in those eyes.

Ah Si said softly: "Master, have you been waiting for a long time?"

Yujin said with a cry: "Bad Si, I've been waiting for a long, long time!"

Ah Si said distressedly: "That's because the little one came late."

Yu Jin threw herself into Ah Si's arms and said, "It's good if you come."

After Ah Si waited for Yu Jin to hug him for a while, he whispered into Yu Jin's ear while the others looked at him strangely: "Master, can you let me light a torch and accompany you for a while?"

Only then did Yu Jin realize that they were going to march to Tianjian Street together, so she said to Ah Si, "Okay."

Ah Si lit the torch in his hand on the fire tower, then took Yu Jin's hand and walked among the crowd. They walked together on the paths in the fields, looking at the towering stars in the sky that guided the direction.

Passing through the shops and merchants at Zhennanguan, I also saw other couples hugging each other sweetly on the street...

When Ah Si and Yu Jin returned to the square, many foreign guests threw their torches into the fire tower, then clasped their hands together and began to pray silently.

Ah Si looked at Yu Jin and said, "Master, please make a wish."

"Let's go together." Yujin said to Ah Si.

"Okay." Ah Si said.

The two of them stood in front of the fire tower with their eyes closed, praying and making wishes in front of the burning flames.

After a while, Yu Jin opened her eyes and looked at Ah Si and said, "What wish did you make?"

Ah Si thought for a moment and said, "Can I say it?"

Yujin said: "Okay."

"Then let's stop talking." Ah Si said with a smile from behind the mask.

Yujin chased Ah Si and slapped his back: "What do you say?"

Ah Si said from the front: "It won't work if I say it."

Yu Jin yelled, jumped on Ah Si's back, put her arms around Ah Si's neck and said, "Young Master is tired, please carry him for a while."

Ah Si said dotingly: "Yeah."

Ah Si just carried Yu Jin on his back and looked at the people who started to dance the celebratory dance in the square with their hands hooked up, and there were various acrobatic performers around them.

Yujin suddenly chuckled when she saw those people performing acrobatics.

Ah Si turned his head, touched Yu Jin's mask, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Yu Jin said: "At that time, some people seemed to still want to perform as entertainers."

Ah Si also smiled and said, "That means you don't give me a chance."

Yujin said: "But I have already seen you at your most powerful, so you don't need to perform."

"Thank you for your appreciation, Master." Ah Si said.

Yu Jin said: "Since the young master appreciates you so much, do you have anything to reward the young master?"

Ah Si said: "Of course there is."

With that said, Ah Si carried Yu Jin on his back to a small stall where people were making candy, and said to the old man at the stall: "Old man, please help me make two candy figures, more in the shape of rabbits."

"

The old man saw that Ah Si was carrying someone on his back, and while pinching him, he asked curiously: "Why is the young master still carrying someone on his back?"
