Kongming lantern

Ye Qian soaked up the oil on the piece of linen cloth and tied it to the center of the base of the wishing lantern. A simple wishing lantern was created.

"It's done!" A satisfied smile appeared at the corner of Ye Qian's mouth. It was his first wishing lantern in his life. Unfortunately, he didn't have a fairy alliance or a mobile phone, so he couldn't take a photo and post it on Moments.

"Pfft..." The woman in linen clothes looked at the wishing lantern and couldn't help but laugh out loud. The twisted barrel body had paper scattered on the surface, and the bottom was peeled off by her, stained with black oil.

Torn linen is really ugly to a certain extent.

Even if you don't know how to refine weapons, ordinary cultivators at the sixth level of the Peeping Dao Realm can't create such a thing. I can only say that the talent of the person in front of you is so special.

Ye Qian rolled his eyes. It was also his first time to make a wishing lantern. It was all based on memory. This was just a test product. If it could be ignited and the test flight was successful, it would be considered a victory. Beautification would be something to consider later.

"Light the fire, and the wishing lantern will fly to the sky!" Ye Qian said with a smile, placed the wishing lantern between him and the Maiden, used spiritual power to light a peach branch, handed it to the Maiden and said, "Light the fire!"

"Don't you need to make a wish first?" the woman in linen asked blankly.

"Didn't I start making wishes when you lit the fire?" Ye Qian said matter-of-factly, otherwise you think why I asked you to light the fire.

"Ah..." The woman in linen clothes punched Ye Qian's shoulder lightly in an angry and funny manner. She thought Ye Qian asked her to light the fire so that she could make a wish first, but it turned out that she was overthinking it.

"Okay, okay, you make your wish first. A wishing lantern can only make one wish!" Ye Qian took back the peach branch that was lit on fire with a sad face. He couldn't reason with a creature like a woman, so pity him with his own hands.

I made my first wishing lantern, and I actually benefited a woman whose name I didn't even know.

Well, Ye Qian calmly glanced at the briskly wagging tail behind the sack-clothed woman from the corner of his eye. To be precise, he was taking advantage of a half-demon woman whose name he didn't even know.

"That's pretty much it!" The woman in linen gave Ye Qian a rolling look.

"When you make a wish, you should hold your hands together..." Ye Qian gave an example to the woman in sackcloth and asked her to imitate him.

"I want to light a fire. Remember to make a wish. Only one. Too many will easily cause the wishing lantern to fall down!" Ye Qian asked tirelessly.

"I know, you are so verbose!" The woman in linen clothes sat up from the ground, imitating Ye Qian's example and squatting next to the wishing lantern, holding her hands together and staring at the fire in Ye Qian's hand.

She knew it was childish, but it was surprisingly novel and not offensive at all.

"Light the fire..." The burning peach branch in Ye Qian's hand ignited the oilcloth, and traces of heat radiated from the oilcloth and began to fill the space inside the wishing lantern.

"Quick, close your eyes and make a wish!" Ye Qian urged the woman in sackcloth.

"Got it!" The woman in linen muttered, closed her eyes, and began to make a wish. Not long after, she opened her eyes and watched blankly as the wishing lamp slowly expanded. After Ye Qian let go, the wishing lamp slowly stretched into the air.

The entire Fairy City's first floor is only a hundred meters high. Covered by the Taolin Formation, the sky above is even lower, reaching about a hundred and ninety meters high. The wishing lantern was blocked by the formation and stopped there.

"What wish did you make?" Ye Qian turned his eyes from the wishing lamp back to the woman in sackcloth and asked.

"I won't tell you!" The woman in sackcloth turned her head away and hummed.

"Rare!" Ye Qian rolled his eyes, "I want to make a wish for the second wishing lantern myself!"

"Come on, you are too ugly, you stingy!" The woman in linen clothes snatched the peach branch from Ye Qian's hand and took out pen, ink, paper, inkstone, knife and other things from the storage ring.

"You know how?" Ye Qian muttered. He just said it casually. He basically knew how to make the wishing lantern once he saw it. It was very simple. He just felt that his pride was hurt. The first one was really a test subject. He would do it again.

It must be much more beautiful.

The woman in linen rolled her eyes at Ye Qian, and skillfully cut the peach branches that Ye Qian had treated into bamboo grates of the same size. She interspersed and weaved them with ease. In a short time, a delicate and rounded main body and base of the wishing lantern were woven.

alright.

The pieces of white paper are covered outside the main body of the wishing lantern, and they are fused together with spiritual power. They are round and lovely without any wrinkles, as if they were born as one body.

After that, the woman in sackcloth sharpened her pen again and began to draw on the white paper of the wishing lantern.

A bright moon is above, a lake is below, black peach branches and red and white peach blossoms complement each other. Under the tree by the lake, the black man is lying down and the red woman is sitting with her knees crossed. The picture is lifelike and the painting work is quite good.

"Who by the river sees the moon for the first time? When does the moon on the river shine on people for the first time? Life has been endless from generation to generation, but the moon on the river looks the same every year!"

The woman in linen clothes changed another pen and put aside the poem that Ye Qian had originally whispered.

"This is the wishing lantern!" The woman in linen clothes raised a smile on her lips, nodded with satisfaction, looked at Ye Qian, and asked jokingly, "Does it look good?"

"Go away, I want to be quiet!" Ye Qian almost burst into tears. Is this really your first time seeing a wishing lantern? This is still the initial development version, so you can just make it the final version.

Is there any justice in not letting people live?

Ye Qian originally wanted to make a few more wishing lanterns, but without comparison, there would be no harm. With this wishing lantern, all the lanterns he makes in the future can be classified as garbage and ugly, which is not embarrassing enough.

"Come on, I'll light the lamp and you make a wish!" The woman in linen imitated Ye Qian and tore off a piece of linen from her sleeve, soaked it in enough oil and tied it to the center of the base of the wishing lamp, then urged Ye Qian.

"Got it!" Ye Qian clasped his hands together and prepared to make a wish, but his mind went blank and he had no idea what to wish for.

"Light it up!" The woman in linen clothes set the oilcloth on fire, looking at Ye Qian who closed his eyes with fire in his eyes.

"May the lovely people in your past lives get their wishes!"

Ye Qian opened his eyes and watched the deluxe version of the wishing lantern rising slowly, feeling much more relaxed.

"What wish did you make?" the woman in linen asked with burning eyes.

"May there be years to look back on, and may lovers grow old together!" Ye Qian said, looking at the wishing lanterns at the top. Each wishing lantern has a wish. What he is saying is that the wishes of the second and third wishing lanterns will be different.

Considered a scumbag.

"May I have years to look back on, and may I grow old together with lovers!" The woman in linen murmured and repeated Ye Qian's wish, with complicated eyes, and then said to Ye Qian, "You must have let down a lot of people!"

God, I must have let down a lot of people, you can see that! Ye Qian was horrified and laughed twice without daring to answer. He was so shameless that he didn't let anyone down. He really couldn't say it out loud.

"You want to find someone to spend your life with, but you don't know what that person is like. You keep trying, denying, and letting down!" the woman in linen said quietly.

"Let's continue making wishing lanterns. In fact, I have a lot of wishes!" Ye Qian laughed dryly and said with a guilty conscience. He said it as if you understood me very well, although I admit that what you said makes a little sense.

"Forget it tonight, I don't want to do it!" The woman in linen clothes looked up at the two sky lanterns in the sky, one ugly and one beautiful, and said in a daze.

"Ah, don't bother, it's still early..." Ye Qian was confused. Of course he could do it by himself, but comparing other people's craftsmanship, Ye Qian felt that having his own ugly child in the sky was enough. Any more would be too much.

It's dazzling.

"It's getting late, I have to go back and rest!" The woman in linen clothes stood up and patted the peach blossoms on her body.

"Oh, I'm very happy to meet you. See you again by chance!" Ye Qian nodded, but sighed in his heart. It was an accidental encounter. He didn't even give his name, so naturally he couldn't ask for more.

"I have a guest room there!" The woman in linen clothes turned around and left, leaving behind a sentence.

"Oh...ah..." Ye Qian nodded blankly, suddenly understood, followed the steps of the sackclothed woman, and said with a smile, "I know you are not such a ruthless person, I will stay alone.

How pitiful that is!”

"You can also find a peach girl!" The smile on the corner of the Mai Yi woman's mouth disappeared.

"It's boring. It's better to be alone!" Ye Qian curled his lips and didn't take it seriously.

The Maid lived not far from the lake. It was a two-story building, with the guest room on the first floor and the Maid's boudoir on the second floor.

Ye Qian was very sure that there was no such small building by the lake before, but he was relieved when he thought that the Peach Forest Formation had the ability to hide buildings. He thought that some of the buildings in the formation would not appear in front of outsiders without the consent of the owner.

There is basically no furniture in the two-story building, and the guest room is basically just a bed, a table and a stool. According to the Maid woman, her own room is just like this, and she has not prepared anything else, leaving Ye Qian to make do with it for the night.

After the lady in sackcloth finished speaking, she was about to leave.

"What, is that it?" Ye Qian looked at the woman in linen clothes with an expectant look and hesitated to speak.

"What else do you want, to be my guest?" The woman in linen clothes looked at Ye Qian with a half-smile, and said in a slightly weird tone, "Your words are quite unique!"

"I haven't eaten all day?" Ye Qian looked at the woman in sackcloth expressionlessly. The question was too difficult to answer. If you say yes, people will think you are teasing. If you say no, it will feel like insulting her appearance, so just ignore it.

After passing the insurance, if I come to your home as a guest, the room will be okay, but there will always be some food and drinks to entertain you.

"I haven't eaten for more than a month, and I'm still alive and well!" The woman in Mai didn't think so. There was nothing wrong with her. She could have gone without food for a long time at the sixth level of Taoism. Not to mention not eating for a day, or not eating for a year.

Nothing will happen.

How on earth did this guy cultivate all the way up? He has all the faults of a mortal. First he put out a wishing lantern, and now he has to eat at night. He won't die if he skips a meal!

"Do you have a kitchen here?" Ye Qian sighed, forget it, do it yourself and have enough food and clothing.

"Can you cook?" The woman in linen looked surprised and pointed to the room opposite Ye Qian, "Well, that's the kitchen!"

"Do you want to eat something together?" Ye Qian was speechless. The arrangement of the woman in linen clothes was quite different. It looked like a duplex villa like Ye Qian's hometown. In fact, in the Xianmeng kitchen, laundry room, etc., they were all arranged in the servants' room.

On the other hand, kitchens are rarely installed in residences...
