The setting sun was setting in the west, and in the small courtyard illuminated by the rays of the rays, Dongzhang and Xiaolongnu were bickering like two children. On the left and right were Granny Sun and Lu Qing, who were pretending to sleep. Lu Yao was still breathing.
Huge sleep.
It may also be that Dongzhang Longnu was speaking a little too loudly at this time. Lu Yao's eyelids, who were still sleeping soundly, squirmed slightly, and then he opened his big and confused eyes slightly, and he made a lazy sound of getting up from his lips, twisting his waist.
Stretching like a snake.
He sat up straight and in the blink of an eye, he saw Dong Zhang and Xiao Longnu chattering. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes. Lu Yao said crisply: "Brother, are you back?"
"Well, I'm back and I brought you some fun things. Do you want to play with them?" Seeing her waking up, Dong Zhang and Long Nu turned to look at her at the same time.
When Lu Yao heard the word fun, his eyes that were still slightly confused immediately lit up, his body turned on instantly, and he jumped in front of Dong Zhang and asked anxiously: "What is it, brother?"
Even Xiao Longnu was a little confused, why didn't she hear him say there were gifts just now?
Seeing the expectant looks in their eyes, Dongzhang first smiled mysteriously, then raised his hand and snapped his fingers twice and said with a smile, "Okay, Qing, mother-in-law, do you still want to pretend until dark?"
Hearing this, Lu Yao and Long Nu were both stunned, while Lu Qing and Granny Sun were a little embarrassed. It turned out that Dong Zhang had known about it for a long time since he was pretending to sleep with him. They stood up and looked at Dong Zhang who was smiling.
Only then did Long Nu and Lu Yao suddenly realize that Lu Qing and Grandma Sun were pretending to sleep. Long Nu didn't know what she thought of, her face suddenly became hot, and her expression became a little unnatural.
Dongzhang suddenly stood up and walked into the small building. When he came out again, he already had several large pieces of paper in his hands. Seeing that Longnu and others were staring at the things in their hands, Dongzhang smiled and said: "
This is a paper kite, you have never seen it before, come on, I will teach you how to play."
The thing Dongzhang is holding is the kite of later generations, but there is no such saying in this era. The kite was invented in the Spring and Autumn Period. Mo Zhai spent three years making the wooden bird from wood, but it broke down after only flying for one day.
, this is the prototype of the kite.
Later, Lu Ban used bamboo as the raw material instead of wood. At this time, it was called "wooden kite". It was not until the Eastern Han Dynasty that after the papermaking technology was improved, people began to use paper to make kites, which were called "paper kites". However, at this time, paper kites only had a few
It was used for specific purposes when it was young, but it became really popular in the Song Dynasty.
During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, kites were used as communication tools for help. It is said that Emperor Wu of Liang was besieged in Taicheng and wanted to ask for help from the outside world by flying kites into the sky. However, he was shot down and the message transmission failed. In the end, Taicheng fell and Emperor Wu of Liang died. This is
Two typical uses of ancient kites were used in military aspects.
In addition, kites are also used to convey information. The kite is given a certain signal. If the kite is flown, it indicates action, or some words are written on the kite or some representative things are hung on it to achieve its purpose.
Until the Tang Dynasty, kites were also used for military purposes, but they began to be used for entertainment. Paper kites were used in the palace for fun, but their spread was small.
It was not until the Song Dynasty that kites became a popular outdoor activity. During the Qingming Festival, people no longer forget to take a kite with them when they go out for an outing.
There are actually many reasons why the Song Dynasty started flying kites. First, kites are simple to make. Second, it is the progress of papermaking. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cai Lun improved papermaking. After that, papermaking technology continued to develop. By the Song Dynasty, the economy was stable.
The technology of making kites has also reached all-round development, and people in the Song Dynasty also liked a variety of entertainment methods. Kites became popular in both environmental and economic aspects.
It's just that the pair of dragon girls who have lived in the ancient tomb all year round are strangers. It is the first time they have seen such a novel thing. Lu Yao jumped up to Dong Zhang and said excitedly: "Brother,
How to play this?"
Dongzhang pulled out a butterfly-patterned kite and said with a confident smile: "It's very simple. Watch it. I'll show you."
"Yeah, okay, okay." Lu Yao looked at Dongzhang with dazzling eyes, his face full of expectation.
"Hehe." Slightly brushing the messy hair in front of his forehead, Dongzhang strutted forward a few steps, holding the kite in one hand and pinching the ball of thread in the other. He slightly looked back at the expectant Dragon Girl and the others and hummed: "
Take a good look!”
After saying that, he suddenly ran forward quickly. When he jumped two or three feet away, he suddenly let go of the kite in his hand and ran back and forth with only the ball of thread: "Hahahahahaha, how about it, is it fun?"
"..."
The girls looked stiffly at Dongzhang who was running back and forth in the courtyard and were speechless. Lu Yao hesitantly looked at Xiao Longnu who was also confused and whispered: "Brother seems to be a fool."
"Yes." Xiao Longnu nodded in agreement, and even Lu Qing and Granny Sun also nodded.
It is not difficult to understand the confused expressions on the faces of several people, but when Dong Zhang let go of the kite, the kite fell softly, and now it is just barely swaying in the wind relying on Dong Zhang's running speed.
, from a distance, Dongzhang looks like he is running wildly holding a rag, which is completely incompatible with beauty.
Perhaps sensing the 'surprised' looks in the women's eyes, Dongzhang looked back and found that his kite was flying back and forth in the air, like a drunken butterfly or a crashed plane.
Zhu stopped, his face turned red, he put his hand to his mouth and coughed: "Ahem, this is a wrong demonstration."
Then he looked around the rather large courtyard and said: "It seems that this venue limits my performance. Come on, let's go to the back and play."
After a cup of tea, Dongzhang and his party came to the small slope behind Zhuangzi. At this time, the sun was just reaching the top of the mountain. The whole world was covered by golden glow, and a line was drawn out on the horizon.
Daocheng red traces.
During the film, the surrounding grass was coated with a golden color. The breeze blew, and the foxtail grass sang the lyric song of dusk. The scenery was very beautiful.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Just listen to the laughter like silver bells coming from the small slope at this time, Lu Yao happily runs on the slope, the carp-patterned kite in his hand has been
She successfully let go.
Next to her was a happy-looking Lu Qing. The kite with an eagle pattern in her hand had been successfully flown. Dragon Girl was standing quietly at the highest point of the slope, with the kite with a flying bird pattern in her hand already high up.
In the sky, her kite flew the highest among everyone in the audience, followed by Granny Sun.
Looking at the whole audience, only Dongzhang, who had made such a big statement just now, was still running back and forth, saying that he was the one who wanted to teach others how to play. He was the one who knew how to play but he couldn't. The butterfly-patterned kite in his hand was like a frosted eggplant.
He seemed to have no energy at all. Hearing the cheerful laughter of the girls, Dongzhang jumped up to Dragon Girl with a crooked kite and said unconvinced:
"I'm broken, I'll play with you."
Glancing lightly at Dong Zhang, who was still arrogant, Xiao Longnu handed her kite string to Dong Zhang.
The latter took the kite string from the dragon girl and looked at the bird-shaped kite flying highest in the distance. The corners of his mouth cracked again.
But after a while, the smile froze on her face. Xiao Longnu was seen holding Dong Zhang's original butterfly-patterned kite. With a flick of her wrist, the kite suddenly flew up against the wind. She gently pulled the string in her hand.
Together, Dragon Girl's kite quickly surpassed the height of Dong Zhang's kite.
After finishing all this, he looked slightly sideways at Dongzhang, as if to say: Didn't you say that this kite is broken?
Seeing that she flew the kite so easily, but he kept running like a stupid bear on the ground without being able to fly the kite. The comparison between the two made him stand out.
"Ahem, it's just a fluke..." Dongzhang still insisted.
Smiling silently, the dragon girl withdrew her gaze and concentrated on moving the kite in the sky.
At this time, on the small slope, the figures of several people were stretched by the setting sun...
Lujiazhuang.
“Not here??”
"Yes, Gang Leader Huang, I have been there many times, but there is no one in the courtyard. I heard from the people on the other side that several people have already gone out, and they don't know where they went, nor did they say when they will return."
Zhuang Ding stood respectfully in front of Huang Rong and reported quietly.
Hearing this, Huang Rong frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then suddenly waved her hand as if she had made some determination and said: "Move all the dishes to Brother Dongzhang's small courtyard, and we will wait for him there...
