Putting out lanterns is an indispensable custom in local temple fairs. People write their wishes on slips of paper, put them into the lantern boat, and then put them into the water. The boat drifts with the current and sails far away. Wait until the next year, and the wishes will come true.
"I want this, I want this." Xiao Qing took the lead and ran to the shop selling lanterns and started picking them up. Then she picked up a fox-shaped lantern with a face full of joy.
"Then I want a puppy." Li Tian picked up a dog, and then secretly glanced at Xiao Qing beside him.
Xiaoqing didn't pay any attention to him, but was helping the woman in white choose lanterns.
Yun Zhi here noticed Li Tian's little move, turned his head and asked him with a smile, "Brother Tian chose this puppy lantern, maybe there is some meaning."
Li Tian saw the two people chatting among themselves, so he came close to Yun Zhi and said in his ear, "We are friends with each other." After saying this, he smiled shyly.
"..." Yun Zhi was obviously stunned after hearing this, and then laughed loudly and said, "Very good, very good, hahaha."
Yun Zhi's laughter attracted the attention of the woman in white.
"What are you laughing at, Master? You are so happy." the woman in white asked.
Xiaoqing also looked over curiously.
Yun Zhi quickly picked up a monkey lantern in his hand and said to them, "Look at this monkey lantern. It is very similar to my brother Tian. I was laughing at this just now."
Xiaoqing rolled her eyes speechlessly and turned her head away, muttering, "What is all the fuss about, what did I think it was."
The woman in white shook her head slightly and chuckled without saying anything. She had already selected the lanterns and was about to write down her wishes.
"Boss, how much does it cost?" Li Tian said in a rare moment of generosity, preparing to show off in front of the beautiful woman. After all, he had no sense of presence from just now until now.
"Handsome guy, a lantern costs twenty copper coins, a total of one silver coin." the boss replied.
Li Tian was puzzled: "Boss, the four of us here are worth eighty copper coins. Isn't your discount a bit too much?"
"Haha, handsome boy, you really know how to joke. There are four people on your side and one on my side. He said it's your fault." After the boss finished speaking, he pointed to his feet.
Li Tian took a closer look and saw that it was the Ergou who had disappeared without a trace before. The Ergou grinned and held a lantern, looking at him like this.
"What do you mean, do you know each other?" the boss asked again.
Li Tian didn't look at the two dogs anymore. He turned his head and looked at the boss and said, "Where did such an ugly dog come from? I don't know him. Change the money, boss." After that, he handed over a silver coin.
Hearing this, Ergou immediately ran to Li Tian holding the lantern, "I know you, I know you, Brother Tian, my dear Brother Tian."
Li Tian looked at Ergou who ran to his feet and asked, "I'm wearing a mask, how did you recognize me?"
"I can smell the coquettishness on your body from all the way away... Well, you are so domineering, how could I not recognize you? You are my most beloved Brother Tian, hehe." Ergou is small in stature.
When holding a lantern as big as its body, not to mention how funny it was, Li Tian didn't bother to get angry with it.
After Xiaoqing finished writing the wish note, she turned around and saw Ergou and said in surprise, "Yeah, there is a puppy!... It's just a bit ugly... Monkey, is it yours?" After saying that, he looked at Li Tian.
Li Tianzheng was about to answer, but Ergou beat him to it, "Bah, where do you think you are a stupid idiot? You dare to call me Brother Tian a monkey. Why don't you apologize quickly and pray for Brother Tian's forgiveness?" After saying that, Ergou grabbed him with one paw.
Holding the lantern, he stretched out his other paw and gave Xiao Qing a middle finger. His expression was also very disdainful, but he just stood a little further back, hiding behind Li Tian to show off his power.

"Hey, this ugly dog can even curse people. It's really funny. Why don't you give it to me?" Xiaoqing's big eyes shone brightly through the mask, as if he had a strong interest in the two dogs.
"Xiao Qing." The woman in white stopped her, "What this puppy said is right. How can you call someone such an rude nickname? Apologize to Mr. Tian quickly, or I won't take you out next time."
The woman in white glared at her.
"Oh." Xiaoqing responded, retracting his gaze from Ergou, and reluctantly said sorry to Li Tian.
Li Tian hurriedly waved his hands and replied, "It's okay, it's just a title. The girl is worrying too much, I don't take it to heart." After saying that, he kicked Ergou and said, "Ergou, please apologize to Miss Xiaoqing.
"He lowered his head, glared at it, and winked at it.
"Oh." Ergou received Li Tian's signal and quickly apologized. It turned out that this time the flattery hit the horse's leg.
Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Yun Zhi hurriedly came to smooth things over.
"You have finished writing your wishes. After we finish writing, let's go put out the lanterns." Yun Zhi smiled and shook his fan.
"I haven't written yet. I haven't written yet. Just wait for me." Li Tiancai remembered that he hadn't written the note yet, so he quickly took the pen and wrote two words on his note, and then he
Stuffed into the lantern boat.
"I've written it, let's go." He picked up the boat and said to everyone.
"Then let's set off." Yun Zhi smiled.
The group of people soon came to the river where the lanterns were placed. At this time, colorful lanterns were floating on the river, and they were drifting with the current towards the distance, not knowing where the end was.
The two women walked down the steps, gently put the lanterns in their hands into the water, clasped their hands together and closed their eyes in prayer.
Li Tianyou imitated the same movements and prayed with everyone, hoping that his wish would come true.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom." As soon as everyone finished praying, they opened their eyes and saw fireworks blooming in the sky. "Boom, boom."
The fireworks show has started.
"It's so beautiful, sister, look quickly." Xiao Qing quickly pulled the woman in white and pointed at the gorgeous sky to let her look at it.
The woman in white looked up and smiled slightly. "Yes, it's so beautiful."
Li Tian looked at the sky for a moment
Then he looked at Xiaoqing
The fireworks in the sky are reflected in her eyes
shining with brilliance
Fireworks in her eyes
is so charming
So beautiful
The good times are always short-lived. As the final fireworks bloom in the sky, the group's companionship has come to an end.
"Those two girls, let's just say goodbye. In the future, we will meet again. By then, I hope we can take off our masks and get to know each other again." Yun Zhi put away the fan in his hand and hugged them.
A fist.
Hearing the words, the woman in white smiled and nodded slightly at them, "I'm sure, those two young masters, let's just say goodbye." After saying that, she pulled Xiao Qing beside her and turned around and left. Not long after, she disappeared into the crowd.
in sight.
Seeing that the two women had gone away, Li Tian finally let out a sigh of relief.
Yun Zhi couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and joked to Li Tian, "Brother Tian, it's such a good opportunity to win the favor of a beauty, but it's a pity that you didn't use it, hahaha."
Li Tian shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Oh, I don't know what happened.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
When I saw her, I couldn't even speak properly. Fortunately, I have you today, otherwise I would have made a fool of myself."
"It's okay, we have a long time to come." Yun Zhi opened the fan again, "They are all freshmen in the college like us, and there will be many opportunities to meet each other in the future. Let's go, it's time for us to go back. We have had enough fun today.
"Yunzhi continued.
"Hahaha, I had a lot of fun, I'll come back to play again when I have the chance." Li Tian said with a smile.
After saying that, the group of them also went back.
After Xiaoqing and the others left, Li Tian obviously became active again, playing and messing with Ergou along the way.
The two took off their masks and walked back. As the fireworks display ended, the number of people at the temple began to decrease.
"Brother Tian, I want to eat that candied haws on a stick. I saw a lot of children eating it at night." Ergou said suddenly, following Li Tian.
"Eat, eat, eat. You know how to eat all day long. I won't let you eat." Li Tian replied.
As soon as Li Tian finished speaking, he saw a bald and sturdy man walking in front of them. He was about 1.9 meters tall and burly. He was holding half a bottle of wine in his hand. He was drunk and muttering something in his mouth.
.
Because he was still far away, Li Tian didn't hear clearly. He was probably a pretty boy or something. Li Tian looked at him and saw that he was walking towards them while staring straight at Yun Zhi beside him, and his heart suddenly changed.
A bad feeling arose.
At this time, Yun Zhi was still looking around and did not notice the coming danger. Instead, Ergou noticed it and looked at Li Tian.
"Oh, I really can't do anything about you, so I'll let you have candied haws on a stick today." Li Tian winked at it.
"Brother Tian is so kind. The man selling candied haws on a stick is right in front. I'll take Brother Tian there." In this way, Ergou led Li Tian to the side, slightly away from Yun Zhi.
In just a short time, the sturdy man had walked not far in front of them.
The big man didn't pay attention to Li Tian and Er Gou who were about to leave, but walked straight towards Yun Zhi and stopped him.
Yun Zhi retracted his gaze and looked around, and saw the burly man blocking him in front of him, as well as Li Tian and Er Gou walking further and further behind the man, with a slightly puzzled look in his eyes.
"Hey, Brother Tian..." Yun Zhi shouted to Li Tian, trying to bypass the big man and catch up, but was stopped again.
At this time, Li Tian didn't dare to agree when he heard Yun Zhi's cry. He didn't even dare to look back. He could only pretend not to hear it and even quickened his pace. At this time, Li Tian felt panicked.
Pindao, I'm sorry, my good brother!
As soon as a man and a dog passed the corner in front, they began to run away from the scene of the incident.
The figures of the two people quickly disappeared from Yun Zhi's eyes.
"Oh, I'm sorry, my good brother. It's not that I'm a coward, but that I'm really helpless." As they walked away, Li Tian began to mutter.
"Brother Tian, what are you talking about? Even if we just stayed, our small bodies are not big enough for someone to fill their teeth. Brother Tian, this is not called cowardice, it should be called emergency evacuation." Ergou.
said.
"Emergency escape? Where did you learn the word?" Li Tian heard Ergou's explanation and felt that what it said was very reasonable, and the guilt in his heart instantly disappeared.
"I forgot, it seems that someone named Luo said it, what's his name... Luo Xiang seems to be." Ergou thought for a while.
"Then this Teacher Luo must be a very good life mentor. You must get to know him if you have the opportunity in the future." Li Tian nodded.
