I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 356 Shangyuan Festival
The fifteenth day of the Chinese New Year is the Lantern Festival. The origin of this festival is hard to find, but Buddhism flourished in the Tang Dynasty, and lighting lanterns on the Lantern Festival became a statutory event, and the Wen Dynasty also roughly inherited it.

On this day, people from all over the world are popular to enjoy lanterns, eat Lantern Festival, guess lantern riddles, and set off lights. In many places, there are even celebrations such as lion and dragon dances, and walking on stilts.

On this day, Jinling City is very splendid, colorful lights are hung everywhere, there are already many pedestrians on the street, colorful lanterns have been hung on the doors of many people's houses, and small fires are burned with pitch pine on the ground. The flames shot high.

On the street, there was still the official who beat the gong and walked through the streets shouting for fire prevention.

Song Mu also changed into a new robe today, dressed himself neatly, and went out to watch the Lantern Festival with Tao Fengming.

When they walked outside with Sun Qinghe's family, the family members of Sun's house couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw Song Mu dressed up, and there was still that person who looked around Song Mu carefully. , said with a smile.

"Master Pianpian like Xie Yuan, I don't know if he will take advantage of that little girl in the future."

Song Mu grinned, and walked out of the Sun residence with everyone.

Today the curfew was lifted in all the squares in Jinling City, but there were also many soldiers dispatched in the city, and there were officials everywhere to set up fire prevention and congestion prevention.

Occasionally passing through some streets, you can still see some soldiers and officials rushing past pushing water dragons, all of them looking anxious.

And when Song Mu and others walked to the street outside, the noise like Wang Yang came to their ears.

The eyes are full of prosperity!

Lanterns of various colors are hung high, crowds of people are crowded everywhere, the long street is extremely noisy, and the grand scene of the world is coming!

Eating Lantern Festival, setting off lanterns, and guessing lantern riddles, there are laughter and surprises everywhere, and people's faces are full of smiles.

Tao Fengming, who was standing beside Song Mu, looked at this scene, and his expression was touched for a moment.

Song Mu turned his head away, but Tao Fengming saw a flicker in his eyes, and murmured at this moment.

"In the past, I was also one of them."

Hearing these words, Song Mu pursed his lips slightly at this moment. This kind of prosperity in the world will only make Tao Fengming think about the loneliness of the past and the present, adding a bit of pain to his heart.

Song Mu was about to speak, but Sun Qinghe who was beside him stepped forward, put his arms around his old friend's shoulders, and said with a smile.

"What are you mumbling about, let's go, don't watch lanterns with them like girls, let's go drink, some old friends are waiting."

Saying so, Sun Qinghe turned his head to look at Song Mu again, and said with a smile.

"Nephew Song Xian, do you want to go with me?"

Song Mu immediately cupped his hands and shook his head. Several old friends of his master gathered together, so there was no need for him to join in the fun.

Sun Qinghe nodded immediately, and agreed with Song Mu where to meet him at that time, and immediately dragged Tao Fengming away.

All of a sudden, Song Mu was left alone. At this moment, Song Mu let out a long sigh of relief, with a calm expression on his face. Looking at the street full of lanterns and many food stalls, he took a look With a few taels of silver in his pocket, he got into the bustling streets.

"That's right, it's noodles, this young master guessed it right again!"

In front of a booth for guessing lantern riddles, the owner of the stall was handing a box of Longxu Cakes to Song Mu with an unspeakably painful smile. Song Mu was holding a lot of things in his hand. There was still a bit of unsatisfactory expression on his face.

There are still some lantern riddles on the lanterns at this booth, and Song Mu is still a little eager to try.

The stall owner turned bitter when he saw it, and said helplessly to Song Muman.

"Young master, I am here for a small business."

Song Mu grinned, nodded with a smile, and immediately carried his things to the side, but suddenly a voice came from behind. ,

"Shangyuan Ankang, Brother Song, why are you here?"

Song Mu turned his head immediately, but he saw that Gu Zhizhi was striding forward at the moment, and there were a few people dressed as students behind him who also stepped forward.

"Shangyuan Ankang, met Song Jieyuan."

Several students greeted Song Mu respectfully. The stall owner who was tidying up the stall was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Song Mu with a friendly face, and murmured.

"Song Jieyuan? Jieyuan?"

Song Mu was talking to several people at the moment, and Gu Zhizhi said to Song Mu with a smile.

"I didn't expect Xie Yuan, who is usually serious and unsmiling, to behave like this?"

The other party looked at the several foods in Song Mu's arms, as well as the things bulging in his robe, and couldn't help laughing, but Song Mu smiled, and immediately handed several foods to several students.

Several people quickly thanked, while Song Mu said with a smile.

"To be honest, I only saw such a magnificent scene in Jinling. I studied hard on weekdays, and finally today the master is not around, so I am a little presumptuous."

Everyone laughed when they saw Song Mu being so free and easy, but the stall owner stepped forward and bowed his hands respectfully to Song Mu.

"It turned out to be Mr. Jie Yuan, the young one has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai, Mr. Jie Yuan, do you still guess lantern riddles?"

Song Mu smiled and cupped his hands.

"No old man, if I keep guessing, I won't be able to eat anymore."

Having said that, Song Mu said to the people next to him.

"This old man's riddles are very good, very interesting."

Several people nodded immediately, but Gu Zhizhi said with a smile.

"Jie Yuan can go ahead if he wants to guess lantern riddles. In the square in the city, there is a long line of lantern riddles at the gate of the school today. It's very interesting."

Song Mu raised his brows immediately, nodded repeatedly, and several people surrounded him and walked to one side.

The stall owner watched Song Mu leave, and he was a little sad for a while, but he was full of energy the next moment, and then suddenly shouted towards the surroundings.

"Come and guess the lantern riddles, good lantern riddles, even Song Jieyuan said interesting lantern riddles!"

Song Mu immediately followed a few people to the square outside the school. Tonight, it was also crowded with people. There were many stalls in the square, and there were all kinds of yelling.

And in front of the Fuxue, there are quite a few students who have built a row of shelves here, with lights of various colors hanging on them, and many red papers with riddles written on them are pasted on the lights. There are corresponding rewards.

It's just different from the food and small items at other stalls. Most of the prizes here are paper, ink, pens, books and articles, but still attracts many people to participate.

Song Mu naturally approached with great interest, and immediately walked to a booth, looking at the lantern riddles in front of him.

"A pair of bright moons, intact."

"Under the mountain, it is torn apart."

Many people are thinking about simple word guessing at the moment.

Song Mu raised his eyebrows, but the student who set up the stall said with a smile.

"No one has figured out the answer to this riddle today, so you can give it a try."

Having said that, he was suddenly taken aback again, and took a careful look at Song Mu, his brows brimming with joy.

"Is it Song Jieyuan?"

Having said that, someone from the side looked over, and Song Mu also hurriedly handed over his hand, saying that today is to celebrate the festive season together, so don't be overly surprised.

After calming down for a while, although there were still many people around Song Mu, they were all watching Song Mu's movements.

Song Mu immediately took a pen and wrote the answer to the mystery.

"Beng, yes, this is Beng."

Song Mu wrote immediately, the other party presented the gift with a smile on his face, Song Mu accepted it with a smile, and continued to look down.

Song Mu was not very restrained at the moment, and he also bowed his hands to the visitors. Seeing that Song Mu was so enthusiastic, everyone immediately followed behind, applauding and cheering from time to time.

It wasn't until several candidates explained to everyone that Song Mu's side was relieved a bit.

At this moment, Song Mu saw another answer to a riddle in front of a booth, and was writing it by hand.

"April is coming to an end and early May, scratch the window paper and re-paste."

"My husband has been in Beijing for three years, and there is nothing in the letter."

This is a lantern riddle poem, but these four lines are all riddles. Song Mu wrote the last two lines are Angelica and Bai Zhi, but the first two lines, Song Mu really lost the name of the traditional Chinese medicine in his mind.

The stall owner was also full of confidence, Song Mu was thinking about it, when a voice slowly sounded beside him.

"The answers to the first two puzzles should be Pinellia and Fangfeng, right?"

Hearing the sound, Song Mu turned his head to look, and saw a familiar face.

Gu Qingqing is holding a piece of caramel wrapped in a silk handkerchief in one hand, and is looking at Song Mu with a smile on her face.
