Chapter 15: The Boat Race


In the grass, the fluorescent dots, all projected on his body, they had been waiting for a long time, and now, at last, it was time to feast.

"Twitter" Like a tidal wave, the ash rushed forward, and the big one that rushed to the front had already jumped on top of him, and the cold claws touched his neck, making his hair stand on end.

He closed his eyes and resigned himself to his fate.

The sound of rustling in my ears is still there, however, the pain has not hit for a long time, and after waiting for a while, the surroundings seem to be quiet, is it really the protection of the gods and Buddhas, and they have eliminated all these rats?

He opened his eyes slightly, and the grass in front of him was gray, and it was clear that they had not left, but all the mice remained motionless, and turned their heads back, with a little reverence, silently, waiting.

Who are they waiting for?

When this thought burst into his head, the answer followed, and he saw a white figure standing in the bushes not far away, looking at him with a gloomy gaze.

The man in white, the man in white who hooks the soul, is it a silkworm?

The roar that had been suppressed in his throat for a long time finally overflowed, and his legs seemed to be suddenly filled with strength, and he turned around and ran towards the mountains and forests without looking back.

His breathing became tighter and tighter, one after another, and the air in his chest that couldn't be spit out was about to squeeze his lungs, and he felt that he was on the verge of death, even if he was not caught up by the "silkworm", he was afraid that he would die of exhaustion.

There was a glimmer of white light ahead, and it seemed to be the exit of the dense forest, and perhaps, if you ran outside, you could meet the townsfolk who got up in the morning, and you could be saved.

This thought gave him a glimmer of hope, and so, the steps under his feet became faster and faster, and he rushed towards that little bit of hope with the last of his strength.

The soles of his feet were slammed down, and a few gravel hula rolled down, and his heart was cold, like a pile of residual snow, and the light was getting brighter and brighter, but his hope was dashed.

It turned out that this was not the exit of the woods, but a cliff, and if he hadn't discovered it immediately and stopped his steps, he would now be a mutilated corpse at the bottom of the cliff.

However, even if he did not become a corpse, how much better could the situation be.

The body trembled, and the jade pot spring bottle, which revealed most of its body, finally couldn't support it, and fell first, and after a long time, there was a crisp sound.

He smiled and said that there is no endless road, but if this road ahead is a high cliff, jump or not.

There was a slight wheezing sound from the back of his neck, cold and piercing, blowing his messy hair, and then, a subtle pain slowly hit, and his skin seemed to be cut by something extremely sharp.

He roared, leaped into the deep ravine bathed in the morning light.

There was a few taps on the door, and then Fan Yin walked in, "Sister, I'm going to watch the boat race today, why haven't you dressed up yet?"

” Jiang Xi glanced at her listlessly, "I still won't go, the province will affect Sister Fan Qing's mood." ” Fan Yin covered her mouth and smiled, "She went out early in the morning, today, just the two of us, you clean up quickly, don't miss the hour." ” "Is she still angry with me, so she doesn't want to stay at home?"

"Don't worry too much, today's silkworm flower water meeting is the most lively day in the silkworm month, there are everything sold on the market, Fan Qing went to the market with her mother early in the morning, where can I still care about being angry with you."

But then again, what the hell is she angry with you, I still haven't figured it out. ” Jiang Xi regretted that he couldn't explain it to her, so he had to find an excuse to deal with the matter.

In fact, what Fan Qing is angry about, she knows best in her heart.

She thought she was deliberately eavesdropping on her conversation with Wang Yuchen, no matter how she explained it, she didn't believe it, too, the cat disappeared without a trace, and her defense was too unconvincing.

Therefore, Fan Qing has been cold to her in the past few days, in fact, not only to herself, she seems to ignore everyone, so Jiang Xixi guessed that she was very likely to be separated from the king Yuchen because of the bracelet matter, and she was depressed because of this.

I don't know why, Jiang Xixi was a little happy in her heart, Fan Qing and the man were separated, it was a good thing for Yu Wuxian, maybe she could accept her heart from now on and treat him wholeheartedly, then it would really be better.

Thinking of this, she was shocked and carefully groomed in the mirror.

As Fan Yin said, the silkworm flower water meeting is the most important activity of the silkworm month, the competition is often held for three to five days, the crowd is crowded, the boat is full of rivers, and the river is full of tea sheds, wine shops, stalls, drums and music, people and horses shouting.

Each town is on the boat to perform the best program: there are dragon lantern boats, pavilion boats, pole boats, boxing, incense boats, etc., of course, the most exciting program is the boat, each town will send its own rowing experts to form a rowing team, each boat of ten people, according to the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, insert red, yellow, blue, white and black five-color flags, the racers also wear the same color clothing in the river, once the race, many boats together, fast forward, with the fastest as the winner.

Whenever the boat is treaded, the Nanzhou River is full of spectators, the atmosphere is warm, everyone is cheering for the town's boat race, which is the grandest activity in the silkworm month.

This time too, the shore was already full of people, the weather was very hot today, the sun reflected the water of the Nanzhou River in a bright white, but even if the scorching sun was overhead, it was difficult to resist the enthusiasm of the townspeople, and the whole town seemed to gather here, stretching their necks and tiptoeing to look inside.

The children were put on their shoulders by adults, and the candy mounds in their hands were roasted by the sun, and the people below were all over their bodies.

Fortunately, Fan Yin was prepared, she went to the tea stall next to her to borrow a bench, and stood on it with Jiang Xixi, so that she could see the situation on the river clearly.

"Hey, do you see that?"

Fan Yin excitedly pointed to a white-painted racing boat in the river, "That is the racing boat in Tamsui Town, I heard that it was built by the Yu family with silver, and it is made of teak, which is water-resistant and insect-proof, but it is strong." ” "Young Master Yu is really generous."

Jiang Xixi stared at the ten sturdy young men on the boat and sighed.

"The Yu family is not short of silver, besides, if it wins, this is a supreme glory, the people of Tamsui Town go out and have a lot of face, don't you say?"

Fan Yin obviously didn't understand what she meant, and was still talking to herself.

Jiang Xixi smiled and didn't say anything, she saw Wang Yuchen wearing a vest that exposed his arms, standing at the bow of the boat, and the muscles exposed on his arms attracted the attention of countless girls, of course, including Fan Qing.
