Yang Yi took the spoon and scooped a spoonful of sugar. His arms shook slightly, and evenly sprinkled the sugar in the spoon onto the iron plate, and the action was completed in one go.
After the sugar is cooled, a lifelike sugar painting is completed.
He gently raised the candy painting, and there was a beautiful woman with fairy spirit on it, very vivid and you could tell at a glance that this person was Nangong Mingyue.
"Oh, young master, your skills are great! Old man, I will never catch up with you in my life. It can be said that it is a magical skill." The stall owner screamed when he saw this.
Although he said this with a hint of compliment, it was not too exaggerated. A cultivator in the virtual period, regardless of his control of his divine thoughts or his physical body, was not incomparable to the hard practice of ordinary people.
For mortals, it takes several years to practice this craft, but for Yang Yi, just a few glances are enough.
"Haha, it looks pretty good." Nangong Mingyue took the sugar painting and looked at it, said with a smile, then turned around and left.
Yang Yi also said thank you to the stall owner and then followed.
The old man saw his little grandson staring blankly and said, "Grandson, have you seen it? As long as you learn your grandfather's skills well, you can marry such a beautiful wife after practicing it."
"Ah?" The little grandson opened his mouth wide when he heard it.
At this time, two young men with extraordinary appearance and majestic appearance also passed by the stall.
A straight body, long eyebrows and beautiful eyes, eyes shining brightly, and wearing a white sword suit.
In addition, she was wearing black clothes, with deep pupils and a little cold.
But his left hand was fiddling with the air in front of his left eye from time to time, and he didn't know what he was doing.
This person is the other two of the top four of the Demon-Slaying Pavilion Lei Minghua and Ye Lingfeng.
Lei Minghua looked at the backs of the two people in front and asked in a low voice: "Why are you keeping me and walking behind you?"
"I feel that if I walk alone behind, it will be very unsociable." Ye Lingfeng said slowly.
"Then why can't you follow them and have to fall behind?" Lei Minghua asked in confusion.
After hearing this, Ye Lingfeng turned to look at Lei Linghua: "Do you feel that there will always be a very strange feeling when you walk with them?"
"What does it feel?" Lei Minghua was even more confused.
"Superbable, annoying."
...
Nangong Mingyue and Yang Yi walked along the street to the place where the governor's yamen in Lanyu Town were located.
At this time, they realized that there were two missing people. They turned around and found that Lei Minghua and Ye Ye Lingfeng were following them from afar.
"Senior Brother Lei, Senior Brother Ye, why are you walking so slowly?" Yang Yi turned to look at them and asked with a smile.
After hearing this, Lei Ye and the others fell silent at the same time. Finally, Ye Lingfeng spoke, "I'm so tired of leaving."
"Forehead?"
After hearing this, Yang Yi felt speechless. He wanted to find something reliable if he wanted to make excuses. In just a short street, the old man selling sugar paintings could walk two or three round trips while pushing the cart.
Before Yang Yi could continue to speak, the governor's envoy walked out of the governor's yamen and asked with a smile: "A few young men who are the demon-slaying Pavilion? I am the governor of Lanyu Town, my name is Chen Dalong."
"I've met Governor Chen." Nangong Mingyue said to Chen Dalong.
She is the chief of the Demon-Slaying Pavilion, so the four of them have to be led by her when they go out.
"Four people, please come in quickly and let me tell you about the strange case that happened in Lanyu Town recently."
Chen Dalong said politely, then raised his hand and made a gesture of asking for help.
Several people followed him into the patrol office. Along the way, Chen Dalong roughly described the current situation in Lanyu Town.
Although the Jianguo Mansion brings together heroes from the Tianyuan Continent, the manpower is still in short supply.
Usually, a state-level government is set up in a big city and a city-level official is guarded by a city-level official, and other small cities are appointed by this city-level official, and each town has a governor envoy.
Those who are more familiar with these governors Yang Yi belong to Li Xunfu in Rizhao City.
And this Chen Dalong is a small governor under his jurisdiction, so this time something happened in Lanyu Town, so he asked the Demon-Slaying Pavilion for help again.
Originally, small villages like this would not have been stationed by officials.
However, Lanyu Town and Yuegui River are adjacent to each other and are important cities for transportation. The prosperity here is better than ordinary towns, so a garrison officer was set up here.
But here is only Chen Dalong and his brother Chen Xiaolong, and their cultivation is just about to be on par.
After entering the Governor's Office, Chen Dalong said, "I can breathe a sigh of relief if all the young heroes from the Demon-Slaying Pavilion arrive today. These two days have really made me feel sad."
"Governor Chen, don't worry, let's talk to us about the weird cases you know first." Nangong Mingyue said.
Chen Dalong said without saying a word, "In recent days, it is the unique Xiefang Festival in our Nanyu Town..."
Xiefang Festival is a traditional festival in Nanyu Town, and Yuegui River is named after it.
Because the unique laurel that blooms on both sides is much better than other osmanthus varieties in terms of fragrance and appearance.
This time of year is also the time when osmanthus flowers bloom by the laurel river, so many people in the city will take advantage of the clear night to visit the riverside.
At this time, we will gradually take the gift of picking flowers from each other. The elders picking flowers for the younger generation is the elders’ love for the younger generation, and their blessings and expectations for the younger generation. The younger generation picking flowers for the elders represents their respect and love for them, and merchants will also pick flowers for the customers entering the store, which means their gratitude for their welcome.
The most exciting thing is that young men and women pick flowers from each other. If a young man likes a girl, he can go over and ask to pick flowers for the other party. If the woman doesn't like the man, then this etiquette will not be done.
Of course, there are also some girls who are more proactive and will also give them the young man whom they like.
But what does this kind of flower picking represent? It can only mean that the two people have a good impression of each other and can travel together to get to know each other. This is also a path to finding a partner.
"Even if you accept picking flowers, it doesn't mean anything." Chen Dalong said, "Our Lanyu Town is not as open as a place outside the mountain.
Because every year, many tourists from other places mistakenly regard picking flowers as their own way of flames, and want to happen to the girls they like, but the result is very miserable.
As soon as the Xiefang Day opened a few days ago, strange murders occurred one after another.
The three murder cases were quite similar and strange. A young man discovered another girl in white during the process of picking flowers for the girl. They transferred the object of picking flowers, and then suffered a murderous attack and died very miserably.
Two of them died directly, and the remaining young man who did not approach the woman in white escaped his life.
"Wait a minute..." Yang Yi suddenly asked when he heard this, "The third man you mentioned did not abandon his original partner, so he did not get a poisonous move."
"It's not very appropriate to say this, but when the man was about to approach the woman in white last night, my brother found out and stopped him directly."
Chen Dalong said, "When our brothers went to patrol the riverside last night, my brother discovered the trace of the female ghost and had a conflict with him, thus indirectly saving the young man."
Nangong Mingyue was silent for a while after hearing this, she wanted to speak: "My brother Ling, where are you now?"
"He is lying on the hospital bed now." Chen Dalong said.
Oh, so that's the case, no wonder I had to ask for help from the Demon-Slaying Pavilion.
...
At night, because the news of haunted here spread like wildfire two days ago, the number of people coming to the riverside to visit was reduced a lot. The sense of ritual on the Chosen Festival is important, and no life is important.
Now even though there are occasionally sparse groups of people on the street, they may not know because the news is relatively closed, but when they see the empty streets, they have given up their original plans and go home directly.
Lei Minghua sat on a roof near the riverside, and his eyes were constantly patrolling around.
On a dense tree across the river, Ye Lingfeng was wearing black clothes and hid among the trees.
