Chapter 124 Luoyang 10
Jia Rong patiently explained: "Bamboo is very dirty. It contains some harmful things, that is, bacteria. As long as you remember that bacteria are bad things, as for disinfection, it is to kill those bacteria, and everyone's saliva can be disinfected."
"Oh, so that's it!" Cai Yan nodded and responded.
The blush climbed on Cai Yan's cheek again and said shyly, "Big brother, can you let go of my hand?"
The old man blushed, and Jia Rong released Cai Yan's softness, "Let's start making lanterns!"
"Well, big brother, can the lanterns we made really fly?" The girl was really easy to deceive. Jia Rong diverted Cai Yan's attention again.
"Definitely, Yan'er, you're a patient now, just watch it!" Jia Rong cared about it. In order to maintain his image, he swallowed the blood he had just sucked into his stomach, otherwise it would be so immoral to spit in front of a little beautiful woman.
Cai Yan lowered his head and said "um". After seeing that Jia Rong did not respond for a long time, he raised his head and quietly watched how Jia Rong made it.
Inadvertently, Jia Rong saw Zheng Cai Yan looking at him with dementia. His eyes were exactly the same as Hedong Weifu a few days ago. He secretly said that it was bad. Could it be that this little girl fell in love with him? It's not true that Jia Rong likes beautiful women. The problem is that Cai Yan is now a Loli beauty. If you look at her with the eyes of desire. There will be an inexplicable sense of crime.
In fact, Jia Rong is willing to stay with Cai Yan because the little girl's naive, lively and irritable mood can be eased.
A quarter of an hour later, the ball-shaped lantern finally came out, about the size of a bamboo basket in the later countryside, but the shape was really miserable. The top was messy, and the distribution of bamboo sticks was also very uneven.
"It's finally over!" Jia Rong clapped the dust on his hands and said.
Cai Yan looked at the strange-shaped lantern and asked crisply, "Big brother, can the lantern fly like this?"
Jia Rong smiled and said, "Of course it's not that simple. This is just the first step!"
After weighing the weight, I felt that it was okay and should be able to fly. In order to ensure the weight, Jia Rong cut the bamboo sticks very thinly, and the spacing between the bamboo sticks was also very large.
Jia Rong made the Kongming lantern of later generations. The workmanship is too rough. Even if it is put in later generations, it is estimated that few people believe that it is Kongming lanterns.
When he turned around, he brought the paste made in advance and pasted the rice paper carefully on the appearance of the lamp. Soon, a lantern wrapped in rice paper came out, like a huge chrysalis.
"Yan'er, go and bring the pen and ink!" Jia Rong said softly.
"Okay." Cai Yan trotted all the way to her residence.
Looking at Cai Yan, who was out of breath, Jia Rong gasped into his already frozen hands and said, "There is a custom in our hometown. If you write a wish on the lantern and the lantern can fly, then this wish can be realized."
"The customs of the eldest brother's hometown are still strange. Yan'er has never heard of it. Can Yan'er go to the eldest brother's hometown?"
"Well, if possible, I will definitely take Yaner with me!"
Picking up the brush, Jia Rong always felt so uncomfortable, and it was even more awkward to write. It seemed that in the future, he would let his subordinates make a pen that could write quickly, which would definitely greatly improve the efficiency of the officials of Beide County. Unconsciously, Jia Rong always put himself in the place of Beide County.
"Yan'er, do you have any wishes?"
Cai Yan looked up and thought for a moment and said, "Yes!"
"What wish?"
"Does the big brother have a wish?"
"Of course there is!"
"What is the big brother's wish?"
"Well, well, the wish won't work!"
"I can't say anything about that."
Unexpectedly, she accidentally said the little girl and wrote a few names in her heart, hoping that the relatives in the future world could live a happy life. With a long sigh, she also added Xiuer's name and looked up at the distant sky, as if there was a pair of eyes staring at her.
Cai Yan's eyes widened. After looking at it for a long time, he said helplessly, "What did the big brother write? Is it the text of your hometown?
The old man blushed and Jia Rong said anxically, "Well, this is the text of my hometown, which is very different from Chinese characters!" In fact, Jia Rong can't be blamed. The calligraphy itself is not easy to use, and it is written on the surface of the potholed lanterns, which also creates the current situation.
"Well, did you recognize this Yaner, Xiuer? Who is she from the eldest brother? Cai Yan jumped and said like a new continent he had discovered.
After a long silence, Jia Rong said lightly, "She's dead!"
Cai Yan is like a child who made a mistake, lowering his head without saying a word.
Jia Rong picked up the brush and wrote at the bottom of the lantern, "I wish Yaner more and more beautiful!" It's just that the word "Yue" is too difficult to write, and it was written as a black ball by Jia Rong.
Cai Yan's beautiful eyes flowed with a shining light and returned to the liveliness just now, but his eyes looking at Jia Rong were mixed with a trace of puzzlement.
He handed the brush to Cai Yan's hand and said with a smile, "Yian'er, you can also write down your wishes!"
Cai Yan asked in surprise, "Can Yaner write?"
"Of course I can write it. This lantern also has the credit of Yan'er!"
Cai Yan never let Jia Rong see what she had made, and kept getting an angling at Jia Rongjiao who was peeking.
Jia Rong turned around and went to the house to get some candles, smashed them, and made a thick core.
Seeing Cai Yan turn around after writing, Jia Rong asked weakly, "Yan'er, do you think the lanterns we made can fly?"
"Of course I can! Because this was done by Yan'er and his big brother!"
Even Cai Yan is full of confidence in this indescribable lantern. Jia Rong is also embarrassed to say that he is not sure. Even if this lantern flies, it will definitely not fly high. These bamboo sticks are simply tied with thin threads. What's more, the place where the candles are placed at the bottom is also made of bamboo. Over time, it will definitely catch fire. However, the most urgent thing is to make it fly, so as not to lose face in front of a little girl.
Light the candle and gently stroke the lantern with his hand, because the lantern could not stand up at all. During this period, Jia Rong wanted to peek at Cai Yan's wishes. Unexpectedly, she was keenly discovered and kept acting coquettish. Jia Rong retreated and chatted with Cai Yan.
In about a quarter of an hour, Jia Rong felt that his lanterns had a tendency to take off. With the increase of time, the momentum of the rise was getting stronger and stronger.
"Yan'er, our lantern is about to take off!"
The sacred moment finally came. He let go of his hand, and the lantern flew to the sky. At this time, he doubted whether it would fly down. The take-off posture of the Kongming lantern was really not flattering. Suddenly, Jia Rong found that the Juanxiu font on one side of the lantern was written from My name, with an unreachable smile on the corners of my mouth, is very happy to be cared about by the beautiful little sister like a fairy.
Cai Yan let out a burst of cheerful laughter. She had never seen the Kongming lantern in the future world and jumped happily around the lanterns more than three feet from the ground. Jia Rong was also infected by the atmosphere created by Cai Yan and joined it. The two jumped and completely forgot their identity.
The lantern did not live up to their expectations. They gradually flew high, three feet and seven feet, surpassing the house and flying to the distant sky.
"Look, everyone, there is a lantern flying in the sky!" A man looked up to the sky and shouted.
In the era when communication basically relied on shouting, for a moment, the whole people in Luoyang City knew that a lantern flew up. The lantern flew up was a miracle in ancient times. Many people even knelt to the ground and said something devoutly.
Jia Rong felt that the noisy Luoyang City was quiet, which was a very strange silence.
At the same time, in the palace, a little yellow door hurried to the side of the Emperor of Han. For a moment, he was out of breath and could not speak, but his right hand pointed to the sky.
"Why are you so flustered?" The Emperor of Han scolded angrily.
The music and conversation at the banquet stopped abruptly, and the eyes of the officials gathered on the little yellow door.
Emperor Han's dragon face was furious. The little yellow door was so scared that his face was immediately pale. He used all his life's strength to calm his mind and said, "I have found a lantern over the city of Luyang. It is flying up. The people in the city are scrambling to watch." Due to the holiday today, the night ban in the city has also been delayed by two hours.
After a short silence, the banquet made a buzzing sound again.
Emperor Han coughed softly and said faintly, "Is it true?"
"And the lantern is still in the sky!" Xiao Huangmen's face softened a lot.
Under the leadership of the Emperor of Han, the civil and military officials walked to the courtyard. Sure enough, a lantern about the size of a wine jar was hung in the sky. As it was flying higher and higher, the lantern gradually became smaller in everyone's vision, but it was very conspicuous.
Many civil servants hissed softly. Their first thought was, "There is a vision in the sky, and disaster will happen!" Many officials looked at the lantern in the sky with pale faces.
Compared with civilian officials, the generals are much calmer. They point to the lanterns in the sky and comment. They don't have as many literati, but simply appreciate the lanterns in the sky.
The face of Emperor Han is also very ugly. "Is it true that God is going to kill me?" The Emperor of Han muttered softly.
Cai Yongyue worshipped and said, "I am very honored that on this festival, there is an auspicious sign in the sky, which means that my big man will be prosperous!" Civil and military officials echoed one after another.
The face of the Emperor of Han has softened a lot, and his eyes looking at the sky lanterns are also much softer.
Suddenly, the lanterns above unexpectedly rose, and a mass of sparks fell down, which was particularly conspicuous at night, but for a moment, it could no longer catch the trace of the lantern.
At this moment, the civil and military officials overflowing with joy seemed to eat flies one by one, looking at the sky in a frenze.
Emperor Han's face was pale and he sighed for a long time, "I'm not feeling well. Please come back." The officials looked at the lonely figure who walked into the room and retreated one after another.
Please accept the popularity. I've been really busy recently, and there will be more. I hope readers can understand it.
