The Water God Sacrifice will take more than half an hour to end the entire event.

When He Yan and Xiao Jue came down, it was already getting late. Ling Xiu and Yan Min'er were gone, and Aunt Wei said, "I have never eaten all day long after shopping. Young Master and Miss Yuyan must be hungry, right?"

He Yan touched his stomach, "It's okay."

"Then let's go for dinner first." Cui Yuezhi said: "There are several good restaurants in Jiyang, which one Yuyan wants to go to?"

"I think..." He Yan pointed to the black-sailed boat in the river, "Go to eat on it."

She had just seen that many people were riding on small boats and the stove was boiled on the bow. They didn't know what was boiled inside, which was about soup. The remaining wine and food were carried by boats to the shore or the vendors on the river and handed over money to buy. People could take the boat, eat while watching the lively scenery on both sides, and watching the scenery along the river, which was very special.

She had never been to Jiyang in the past and thought it was new, so she wanted to try it out.

"That's a firefly boat." Aunt Wei explained with a smile, "When the boaters are raising the boat, they will shake the boat to the fallen hot spring. The weather in Jiyang is warm, so there are no need to be fireflies in summer. In the woods beside the fallen hot spring, you can see that the river bank in the dense forest is full of fireflies, which is very beautiful! I was lucky to have been with the master one year, but now when I think about it, I feel that it is so beautiful."

When He Yan heard this, she wanted to go even more, so he looked at Cui Yuezhi: "Uncle, why don't we go and take this firefly boat?"

"The girls' families like these," Cui Yuezhi smiled and waved his hand. "I won't go like this. This firefly boat is only for couples or lovers. Two people are in one boat. Even so many of us can't take a boat."

He Yan's words were stuck, thinking that Jiyang's Water God Festival was actually the Chinese Valentine's Day in the Central Plains. It was too unfriendly for people without lovers. Without lovers, wouldn't they be qualified to take a look at the legendary Luoyingquan? It's outrageous!

"Since Miss Yuyan wants to go, let's go with Mr. Huanqing." Aunt Wei smiled and said, "There are many boats and boats around. There should be a water stage on the road tonight, which is very lively."

He Yan struggled very much. She really wanted to see her, but Xiao Jue... might not be willing.

She turned to look at Xiao Jue and asked tentatively: "Young Master?"

"Don't think about it."

"My master, my willingness to go is true."

Xiao Jue pulled the corner of his mouth, "I think it's true that you're greedy."

"I have never seen a large fireflies look like," He Yan whispered: "I've come here, don't you want to see it? Don't treat me as a woman, just treat me as a subordinate. Let's pass by here and enjoy the local customs."

"Young Master, husband?" He Yan called him again.

Xiao Jue's mouth twitched: "Speak well."

"If you don't agree to me, I will keep talking like this."

Aunt Wei smiled, as if he couldn't bear to watch the children fighting, and said a few words to Cui Yuezhi. Cui Yuezhi nodded, and Aunt Wei asked someone to wave to the riverside, found a boat, and said to He Yan and Xiao Jue: "The master has paid the money just now. The master on the boat will take you all over the Jiyang River tonight. When you encounter something delicious and fun, just buy it. When the time comes, he will also send you to Luoyingquan." After a pause, he said: "I originally wanted to teach you to take a few guards with you, but there is a city garrison guards patrolling by Luoyingquan, so there should be no trouble. But if you are not at ease, you can..."

"Thank you, Aunt Wei! There is no need for the guard..." He Yan said happily, suddenly remembering something again, and asked Xiao Jue: "Lin Shuanghe, Chiwu and others, what if they want to go and see it?"

Xiao Jue looked back and saw that Chiwu and others had taken a few steps back together, shook their heads at him, signaling that they didn't want to see.

Yes, rough men probably don’t like things like fireflies, and even if they like them, they don’t dare to show them here.

"Then let's go up first." He Yan was very happy and got on the black-sailed boat first.

This boat is not as gorgeous as the boat boats on the Chunlai River in Shuojing City. It can even be called simple from the outside, but it is also spacious inside, with a collapsed floor and a small stove for cooking. If you sit here, eat something, blow the river breeze, and look at the night market along the riverside, it is really a beauty on earth.

He Yan bent over and sat on the ground and looked up the river.

The Jiyang Canal is very long and passes through the city. Today is another festival. Many lanterns were lit on both sides of the straits, and everyone was joking and making fun of it. The boatman was a middle-aged man wearing a straw hat. He was very strong, his arms were strong, and he was paddling hard.

He Yan was lying on the bow of the boat. She was a little afraid of water, but now it was really lively around her. Maybe Xiao Jue was around her. She forgot a lot of fear in the past, and only freshness was left.

She was looking at it happily, but a small boat next to her passed by. The people on the boat were also a man and a woman. The woman suddenly picked a handful of water and poured it on her. He Yan was splashed on her head and looked confused.

The boatman laughed: "The girl is a foreigner, and she doesn't understand the rules of our Jiyang. On the canal, if two ships meet, everyone will fight each other. People say that the water of the canal feeds the people in Jiyang, and it is not water that is poured, but blessing and luck!"

The girl also looked at her and smiled, kind-hearted and a little cunning, making it difficult to make it angry. He Yan thought to himself, what is this rule? Are you not afraid that your clothes will be wet and you can't go out?

He Yan's idea was actually wronged by the people of Jiyang. Anyone who knew that they would have brought several clothes to the boat to fight tonight to change. Only when she came stupidly wearing one piece of clothes, Cui Yuezhi might have not been on the firefly boat for a long time and had already left this matter behind.

Perhaps seeing that she was very splashing, there were several boats surrounding her. No matter who were men and women, they bent down and scooped up a handful of water from the canal and smashed towards He Yan.

He Yan: "?"

She shouted: "Boatman, please shake the boat farther!"

Before he finished speaking, a big handful of water hit her face. He Yan was shocked. The next moment, someone blocked her and pressed her head in his arms to block the oncoming water.

Xiao Jue glanced at the opposite side. The man who smashed the water towards He Yan was a man, and he was a man who had no sense of pity and was laughing at He Yan. Xiao Jue curled the corners of his lips. The next moment, the tea cups in the boat made a large piece of float marks in the water. A large pile of water flowed "scroll" and dripped the man from head to toe.

The man next to him was not sure whether his wife or lover, and said anxiously: "How can you do this?"

Xiao Jue looked at the other party with a smile and said slowly: "I give you more blessings, no need to thank you."

He Yan: "..."

She raised her head from Xiao Jue's arms and said, "Actually there is no need to worry." She looked around again and said speechless for a moment, "Look, it scared people."

There were still several boats around him, probably thinking that He Yan's reaction was very interesting. When he saw the man's previous lessons, he did not dare to approach him and asked the boatman to quickly row the boat away, as if he was avoiding the plague god.

Xiao Jue laughed: "Do you still have the mood to care about others?"

He Yan looked down at himself, half of his body was soaked with water. Xiao Jue stood up, walked to the stern of the boat, took a handkerchief for her and threw it over, and sat next to the small stove with tea, "Come here."

He Yan said as he said, Xiao Jue said, "Bak your hair dry."

He Yan responded obediently, placed his long hair on the small stove, and baked it with the heat, "Governor, are you hungry?"

"Are you hungry?"

He Yan touched his stomach, "Extreme."

She always had an amazing appetite. Xiao Jue sighed and went to the front to say something to the boatman. Soon, the boatman shook the boat and arrived at a water market.

It was said that it was a water market, but in fact, dozens of ships were together. There were dim sum, hot tea, various snacks, and even roast chicken and roast goose on the boat. The smell was very beautiful. The boat stopped by the water market, and Xiao Jue asked He Yan to come on the bow of the boat: "Pick it yourself."

The food on the boat was characterized by Jiyang, which was very different from the other end of Shuojing. He Yan was jealous of this and couldn't bear to let go of that one, so he picked a little of each one, so he hugged a lot of oil paper bags. Xiao Jue was silent for a moment and asked, "Are you a stew?"

"If you can't finish eating, you can take it back to Lin Shuanghe and the others," He Yan said with a smile: "I'm already very restrained."

Xiao Jue was speechless for a moment, and he also picked a few things, paid the money, and helped her carry the things from the oil paper bag into the boat.

With these food and drinks, He Yan was very happy. He sat on the ground, looked out of the boat, and happily unpacked paper bags to eat and drink. She had a good appetite, and after a day of hunger, she had no image in her eating. Xiao Jue endured it: "Pay attention to her demeanor."

He Yan nodded indifferently, and still did his own thing. He reminded him that he had not seen any results twice, and Xiao Jue gave up.

She supported her hands on the small window on the boat, and suddenly remembered that when she was a teenager, she also took a boat to Jinling with her classmates from Xianchang Pavilion. At that time, there was also Xiao Jue. She was very seasick when she took a boat for the first time. She vomited several times on the boat and almost died on the boat.

Now I am not seasick, but the teenagers went their separate ways, but in the end, Xiao Jue was still with me.

Things in the world are hard to predict.

"It seems there is a water stage over there." He Yan said in surprise: "Carrier, can you shake the boat to the other end?"

The boatman said, "Okay." He rowed the boat and rowed the boat to the side of the water stage.

Under the stage, I don’t know what to use to support it, but only some wooden stakes were left on the water surface and on the wooden stakes, setting up the stage. The audience around had to sit on the boat and watch it. The faces of the performers were painted with oil paint on their faces, and they were singing vigorously. The martial arts dance was very beautiful, and they were babbling. Although they couldn’t understand it very well, it was very lively.

There was a boat selling delicious honey water. He Yan ran to the bow of the boat to see. Many girls were buying it. Seeing that He Yan was so stunning, the vendor explained with a smile: "Girls, they are all fresh. If you are tired of watching the show, you can have a bite? We have everything, lychee paste water, bayberry thirsty water, apricot crisp drink, plum blossom wine, sugarcane juice, pear slurry, sweet bean soup..."

He Yan saw that there was a snow-white, cold and cold ball with red tines dripping from the small cup, and asked, "What is that?"

"This is sugar, ice and snow, cold Yuanzi. It's sweet and cold. If you take a bite, you will definitely not lose. Girl, come a cup?"

He Yan was a little greedy and was about to speak, Xiao Jue asked, "Is this cold?"

"It's cold," the vendor replied enthusiastically, "The ice has not melted, it's very cool!"

"Don't want this, heat exchanger." He said.

He Yan was stunned, but the vendor said enthusiastically: "Then is Gan Dou Soup? We just cooked it and it was very warm in our hands. Oh, was the girl soaked just now?" The vendor smiled and scooped a spoonful of Gan Dou Soup from the bucket and put it into a bowl and handed it to He Yan, saying: "Then you have to drink more warmth to warm your body, but the young master is caring!"

He Yan was confused and didn't care about what this person said at this moment. He just asked Xiao Jue: "Don't you drink some?"

"I don't drink sweet things." He turned around and walked into the boat.

He Yan asked the vendor: "What's not sweet?"

“Perilla drinks are not sweet.”

He Yan took out a few copper plates from his sleeve: "I want another cup of perilla drink."

She held Gandou soup in one hand and the perilla drink in the other. She followed Xiao Jue into the boat and handed the perilla drink to Xiao Jue: "This is not sweet, I've asked. Drink it, I'll treat you!"

Xiao Jue was speechless: "I gave your money."

"The key is to your heart. How can you be so petty?" He Yan scooped a spoonful of sweet bean soup herself. The sugar water was sweet and warm. She narrowed her eyes: "It's really delicious!"

Xiao Jue sneered: "It's so easy to support."

"You don't know," He Yan said: "I rarely ate sweets before, but in fact I like sweets very much." She said: "Jiyang is so good, I also want to be a native of Jiyang."

"You can stay here."

"How can that work?" He Yan sighed, "There are always many other things to do."

While talking, another boat came next to him, and someone exclaimed. When He Yan crawled over and saw a craftsman sitting on the bow of the boat, he was pinching the dough. He pinched whatever the opera singer was singing on the stage. The pile made of grass was filled with dough people, and the child was exactly the same as the actress who was singing the opera. He was really skilled.

He Yan lay on the bow of the boat, watching the dough change rapidly in the hands of this person without blinking. The old man who pinched the dough asked with a smile: "If the girl likes it, can you buy one? I can pinch a dough person like you for you."

"really?"

"certainly."

He Yan was a little moved, but hesitated for a moment, "Let's forget it."

Xiao Jue was cooking something on the small stove where the tea was cooking. Hearing this, he looked up at her and asked, "Why don't you?"
