Chapter 50 Chongyang Festival

Yellow flowers are suitable for wine, while green mountains are suitable for climbing high.

Since the pre-Qin period, climbing high and looking into the distance on the Double Ninth Festival, watching chrysanthemums and drinking has become an important custom for the Chinese people. The highest point near Yuezhou is Xianglu Peak. Early in the morning of September 9, people walked out of their homes in groups of three or five and walked towards Xianglu Peak.

Liu Yu also got up early, but he rushed to the evening party. Because Han Yan not only got up late, she also rubbed her hair in the house for a long time. She first drew her eyebrows for a long time, then she dismantled her head and tidied it up several times. Then she left the door.

Looking at her carefully dressed up, Liu Yu was indeed a little surprised, but he laughed at her, "I said, you are still tall and you know how to comb and dress up before you grow up? Draw yourself like this, are you in a hurry to get married? Are you fifteen?"

Han Yan automatically ignored his words, except for the last sentence. "It will be fifteen next month!" She said with a smile, as if she was very happy.

While talking and laughing, the two of them walked along the flow of people to Xianglu Peak.

Xianglu Peak is only a hundred feet high, strictly speaking, it is a small hill. If you usually do, it will not take much time to climb to the top. But today, thousands of people are walking on this road, and suddenly the narrow mountain path is full of climbing. Tourists are all enjoying the scenery while walking, and some scholars will suddenly become popular and write poems improvised. In addition, the small vendors who keep calling on both sides of the mountain path to attract customers, the degree of climbing to the top is naturally greatly reduced.

However, 6 Yu was not sure, and he just tried his luck after listening to Han Yan's words, so he naturally was not in a hurry to reach the top.

Walking through the crowd, 6 Yu turned his eyes across his face. In eight years, he had grown from an eight-year-old child to a sixteen-year-old young man, and Li Jilan was naturally the same.

Liu Yu didn't know her current appearance, so he could only find out Li Jilan's appearance from her already vague memories, and then speculate on her general appearance now. Whenever she appears similar to the image he speculated, Liu Yu pointed it to Han Yan and asked her to help identify it. What disappointed him was that from beginning to end, Han Yan was just shook her head, without even a little hesitant reaction.

In this way, the two were surrounded by crowds and reached the top of the peak.

The top of the peak is an open flat land. Although there are stall merchants, most of them have prepared chairs. Compared to the scenes of shoulder-to-shoulder scenes on the mountain road, this place is much spacious.

The observation deck where the pavilion was built was crowded with people at this time. Liu Yu and Han Yan looked at each other and saw three big words in each other's eyes - "I don't want to go"! So the two turned side by side to the left and came to a stall with the signboard of chrysanthemum wine.

As soon as she approached the stall, the sweet smell of chrysanthemum wine came to her face. Han Yan took a deep breath, then immediately widened her eyes, trotted to the stall, and opened her mouth to buy wine. But as soon as she opened her mouth, Liu Yu's palm tightly blocked.

"Wuwuwu..." Han Yan stared at 6 Yu, protesting in a vague voice.

But Liu Yu's expression was extremely serious at this time. He put his finger in front of his mouth, then gently pointed it in a direction beside him, and immediately shrank back.

The time he pointed to was very short, but it was enough for Han Yan to see clearly what he wanted her to see.

Han Yan was stunned for a moment, then turned around and signaled that Liu Yu could let go of his hand.

Liu Yu put down his hand and said to the boss softly: "Boss, come a pot of chrysanthemum wine."

The boss is also a person who can winks. Seeing that 6 Yu is so careful, he did not yell like other guests. He just smiled slightly at 6 Yu, then reached out to hand over a pot of chrysanthemum wine and two wine glasses, and took the money handed over by 6 Yu.

Holding a wine pot and two wine glasses in one hand, and pulling Han Yan with the other, Liu Yu walked straight to a table in the corner. After sitting down, Liu Yu relaxed a little. He placed the wine glasses, poured himself and Han Yan each, and then turned his eyes to the direction he had indicated to Han Yan before.

In that direction, a group of people were sitting around a large table. Most of them were wearing dark green clothes, lowered their heads and drank wine. Only one of them was wearing a black robe, his hands were tied behind his back, and his face was covered with scars. But he always raised his head, and his tiger eyes always shone with an unyielding light.

"He... is the person I stole in Jinling? What's his name?" Han Yan asked softly.

"Shi Chaoyi." Liu Yu took a sip of wine: "Do you know the origin of those people?"

Han Yan nodded hesitantly: "It seems that the clothes are from the Salt Gang, but I'm not sure."

Liu Yu thought for a while: "Don't care where the person is, I can't let Brother Shi be caught and ignore it. Do you bring drugs or something? Can you put those people down?"

Han Yan smiled slightly: "This is simple!" Then she waved her hand gently, called the boss, and then said with a smile: "Boss, why is your chrysanthemum wine so sweet? Did you put some special ingredients?"

The boss laughed: "I didn't put anything special..." The boss opened his mouth wide, but couldn't say a word. Han Yan smiled slightly, and looked proudly at 6 Yu silently retracting his fingers on the boss's waist.

Then, the two of them didn't say anything, but stood up silently, helped the boss and walked back to the stall, then placed him on the bench inside the stall, and put him in a posture of closing his eyes and resting. Then they turned around and came to the stall, replacing the boss's position.

While greeting tourists who came from time to time, Han Yan quietly took out a pack of medicinal powder from her arms, poured it into a pot of wine, and then shook it gently.

Not long after she shook it well, one of the people who looked at Shi Chaoyi came over. When he saw the person guarding the stall changed, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He glanced at the boss leaning on the chair and said to 6 Yu: "Who are you? What's wrong with the boss?"

"You don't know, this boss is our uncle, we are his distant nephew and nephew-wife. We were originally from a fishing village near the sea to the east. We were in trouble at home, so we came here to defect to our uncle." Han Yan said with a smile on her face.

When Liu Yu heard her say that she was a couple with her, he couldn't help but change his expression, but he couldn't interrupt her. He could only laugh silently and hide his loss of consciousness.

While speaking, the man had already taken the wine handed to him by Han Yan. But he had not left yet, but turned his head and looked at Liu Yu: "Brother, where are you from?"

"I, I, my countryman in Ningbo!" Although Liu Yu said this sentence stutteringly, it was an authentic Ningbo dialect. The man didn't hear anything wrong, so he turned around and left.

After he walked far, Liu Yu asked in a low voice: "Does your medicine tube work? You won't be exposed, right?"

Han Yan snorted: "That is the top lavish medicine on Mianlong Island. It is not only colorless and tasteless, but the signs before the production are extremely mild. Can these few rotten vegetables be found?"

As he was speaking, a series of collisions sounded one after another. Four of the five people surrounding Shi Chaoyi had fallen down, and the remaining one stood up staggeringly and pointed at 6 Yu and Han Yan. But before he could speak, 6 Yu floated to his side like a light smoke, and his palms were slashed down cleanly, slashing him to the ground.

At this time, someone had noticed the changes here, and people's shouts began to sound. Fortunately, there were many people on the top of the peak, and the screams of these people could not attract everyone's attention for a while. So Liu Yu hurriedly took advantage of this opportunity to jump to Shi Chaoyi's side, and pulled the hands that gathered internal force and pulled them hard, then broke the rope that tied his hands, reached out and lit them a few times on his chest, untied his acupoints.

"Brother Shi, there are many people here, and we are all in love. Let's leave first, let's talk about it!" As he said, 6 Yu stood up while holding Shi Chaoyi.

Shi Chaoyi was stunned when he saw 6 Yu, but he recovered his calmness for a moment, so he nodded weakly: "Okay, I'll follow the arrangements of brothers 6!"

Six birds huh, and took a look at a direction with a small number of people, and pulled Shi Chaoyi and walked over there. But as soon as they took two steps, a loud shout echoed on the top of the mountain: "It's bright and bright, and someone actually used a drug to harm people. Do you thieves want to leave like this?"

As soon as the shouts came out, the noisy peak gradually became quiet. After looking around, people saw the people lying on the ground, and then saw the 6-powder three people standing there.

It is impossible to slip away while people are not paying attention.

So Liu Yu snorted, and also used his internal strength to shout loudly: "Who is pretending to be a ghost? You say we are thieves, what are you who hide your head and tail? "

After stuttering for so many days, 6 Yu was always looking for a way to speak without stuttering. Now he can at least ensure that he speaks smoothly when using his internal force.

As soon as he finished speaking, the previous voice rang out again: "I'm not pretending to be a ghost, it's just that I'll walk in front of you, it will take some time."

As he said that, Liu Yu saw the crowd in front of him dispersing like waves, and a young man in a white long gown emerged from the crowd and stood in front of them.

Judging from his appearance, the man looked like he was about 20 years old, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, straight nose and square mouth. He was very tall, nearly half a head taller than 6 birds, wide shoulders and wide back, and a well-proportioned figure. He was definitely a talented person.

But when Liu Yu saw him, he began to hate him at first sight. Because he saw the same expression as his senior brother Huiren from this man's eyebrows, a kind of self-confidence that emerged from his bones, but was a little blind.

That is the confidence that they have in their own right. People with this kind of confidence will never think that they are wrong, even if they do things that are actually stupider than pigs.

The corners of his mouth curled, and the hand hiding in his sleeves, 6 feathers had quietly clasped the gilded pen that Zhang Xu gave him.

"What do you call this hero?" There was a hint of teasing in his tone.

But the man didn't realize it at all. He raised his chin slightly and replied proudly: "Lower Zhu Fang, cinnabar Zhu, horse Shang Nanshan Shang!"
