Chapter 2: Bloodshed on the battlefield and escape from the Immortal Gate
Chapter 52 Fortune Teller
"Hongling, Luluo, you take Zhigao, Zhiyuan and Jiang Feng out for a walk. I have some things to deal with. I will go to Juxian Building to find you at seven o'clock in the evening."
Jiang Meiliang, who had already walked out of the hall, seemed to suddenly remember something, stopped and said.
"Okay, we're waiting for you. Houerjiang from Juxian Tower is also waiting for you!"
Hong Ling was sincere and originally wanted to say something, but Lu Luo pulled her back and spoke first.
"Go away, stop bringing this up to me!"
I don’t know what Luluo’s words meant, but Jiang Meiliang’s face turned red when he heard it, and he spat, pretending to hit Luluo.
Green Luo was already prepared, she laughed and ran away, not forgetting to look back and imitate Jiang Meiliang's voice and shout:
"The monkey will taste sweet and delicious!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Hong Ling also laughed and ran away quickly, leaving only Ye Feng and the other three in confusion.
Ye Feng actually had no interest in shopping and didn't want to go, but Hong Ling turned back and glared at him, and could only swallow what he wanted to say.
Although I passed through a lot of streets when I came here, I didn't stop much and just looked around. Secondly, the place I passed was not a commercial area, so I didn't think anything of it.
This time I felt completely different after going out. After walking for less than half an hour, I turned around a block and suddenly it became lively. The noisy crowd seemed to have suddenly emerged from the ground.
"This is Niangniang Street, the busiest place in the capital. It covers all kinds of religions and schools. As long as you can think of anything, it can be found here."
Pothos automatically acted as a guide and introduced.
"I wonder which opera will be performed in Liyuan today!"
Zhiyuan seemed to be a real theater fan. He didn't care at all about the vendors shouting loudly on the street, the fragrant snacks wafting around, and the crowds of people. All he could think about was watching the theater.
Hong Ling: "Haha, country bumpkin, this is the Liyuan of Beijing. There are dozens of theater troupes. Is there anything you want to see? I'm really greedy. You can even sing on demand. Are you afraid that you won't be able to see the opera?"
Zhiyuan: "Good guy, there are dozens of troupes in one place. This is too exaggerated. They won't steal the show!"
Hong Ling: "Tch! Everyone is under the control of the Liyuan. What opera will be performed by each family has already been arranged. How can it be repeated? As long as you enter the Liyuan, you can just go to whichever opera you want. Are you afraid of grabbing some operas?
ah."
"Wow, it's so exciting, let's go, let's go watch the show."
Zhiyuan's drama addiction was completely aroused, and he just kept urging him.
"What's the hurry? We're still far away!"
Hongling rolled her eyes at Zhiyuan angrily and said.
"Oh! Hey hey hey!"
Zhiyuan was snatched away by Hong Ling. He scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and smiled, and could only follow him obediently.
Niangniang Street is actually not a street, but a large area with a radius of twenty to thirty miles. This is a place for recreation and leisure.
Perhaps it was deliberately created by the government, or perhaps it was formed spontaneously by merchants, with various commercial activities gathered into different areas.
Liyuan is an area formed by opera.
Of course, there is not only opera here. In fact, there are operas, juggling, juggling, storytelling, and dance. You only need to pay once to enter the opera garden. In fact, the fees are very low, one fee per person is enough.
Ye Feng naturally has no money. In fact, he doesn't know what money looks like, and of course he doesn't care.
After entering the opera garden, Zhiyuan naturally went straight to the stage area, leaving Hongling with no choice but to shake her head.
Hongling and Luluo really had no interest in opera, Zhigao also felt sleepy after listening to it, and Ye Feng didn't think it was anything interesting, but Zhiyuan was the only one who enjoyed it.
Hong Ling really couldn't sit still, and it was impossible to pull Zhiyuan away, so she simply proposed to separate and let everyone have their own fun.
Anyway, Juxian Building is nearby, so we made an appointment to meet at Juxian Building at 6:30.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Hongling and Luluo stood up and left as if they were running away.
It's not even three o'clock yet, so it's still early. In fact, Ye Feng doesn't know what he's interested in, or he doesn't even know what's there, so he just lets the horse rein the reins and starts walking around casually.
Watching juggling for a while, tricks for a while, Ye Feng would also say hello twice when he saw something exciting, which was quite interesting.
The only embarrassing thing is that when he sees others cheering, he will always touch them randomly and throw one or two money in. He is also infected, but he touches around, but in the end he is empty-handed, with no money at all.
.
In the eyes of others, his funny look was like stealing a chicken, and some people around him gave him a blank look.
It’s no wonder that there is no rule that you must give money as a reward, it’s all up to your own will, and no one will say anything if you don’t give it, but it seems too artificial to pretend like Ye Feng and end up with nothing.
Ye Feng himself felt embarrassed, too embarrassed to join in the fun anymore, and no longer dared to crowd in the crowd to watch the fun.
After wandering around all the way, I came to a lake without realizing it.
It was already early winter and the weather was already slightly cooler. Various trees by the lake had already taken off their green leaves and disguised themselves as dead trees, preparing to fight the harsh winter.
The weeping willows by the lake that were once covered with silk ribbons only have thousands of branches left, adding to the desolation.
Only the pavilions and pavilions scattered around the lake tell people how lively it used to be in the summer.
Ye Feng really liked the tranquility by the lake. It was really rare in this bustling city full of noise.
The lake was really not small. Standing by the lake, Ye Feng could only see the water and sky in the distance, but he couldn't even see the edge.
A few waterbirds on the empty lake suddenly dived into the water, and then surfaced again, occasionally flapping their wings, as if they were very happy. I don't know whether it was because they caught fish food, or they just wanted to play in the water.
In the distance, several cruise ships drifted leisurely on the lake. Occasionally, someone walked along the side of the ship, and the faint sound of silk and bamboo could be heard.
The picture was extremely peaceful and peaceful, which was in sharp contrast to the previous hustle and bustle. Ye Feng's somewhat impetuous heart suddenly fell silent, and he strolled into a small pavilion in the lake.
"Brother! You and I are destined to meet again, but you still remember me!"
But as soon as he entered, a discordant voice came over.
Looking around, he saw an old man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks leaning on a pillar beside the pavilion, staring at Ye Feng with a pair of rat eyes.
There was no one else in the small pavilion except the old man and Ye Feng. It was obvious that the old man was greeting Ye Feng.
"Old man, do you know me?"
Ye Feng was very confused. He glanced at the old man and couldn't remember ever seeing him before.
"Brother, what you said is true. We are all destined to be friends in the world. There is no need to know each other before we meet!"
The old Taoist stroked the rat whiskers and said in a formal tone.
"That's just because I don't know him!"
Ye Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes at this flirtation.
"Hehe! No one in the world knows me, but I know everyone in the world! Fortune telling, fortune telling, bone touching, fortune telling, little brother, you choose that!"
