"Young Master..."

At this moment, two servants came from behind and said respectfully: "The talismans you have told us have been pasted."

"Yes." Liu Xiuping nodded slightly, threw the candied haws that had only bitten a small bit on the ground, patted his hands gently, turned around and walked towards the direction of the pleasure boat.

"Let's go, what Thirteenth Aunt said is still one last step..." He whispered, a smile slowly curled up the corner of his mouth, but his eyes that should have been clean were slightly flashing with scarlet colors.

The two servants hesitated for a moment and reminded him: "Young Master, the old man told me yesterday that a few people in our Liu family suddenly disappeared in the past few days. It is a bit suspicious. It is hard to say whether someone was secretly targeting the Liu family and told you to be careful not to go far..."

"Don't worry." Liu Xiuping didn't look back, but just chuckled and sang, "Don't do bad things during the day, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night..."

Although it was really lively and had to wait for the lantern festival at night, the streets were already quite noisy at this time. Even at this time, you could hear the sound of gongs and drums outside, which made the more lively sister-in-law Su Zhirou feel a little unbearable. She looked out the door, but she didn't get her sister's permission, so she didn't dare to go out casually.

Su Wanmiao couldn't help but feel a little funny when she saw her like this. She turned to Du Bai and said, "My husband, why don't you go out for a walk with Zhirou, so as not to scold me in your heart later."

"How could I scold my sister?" Su Zhirou held Su Wanmiao's arm like a coquettish, stuck out her tongue playfully, and said with a smile.

Du Bai smiled and watched the two sisters laugh, and then thought of something, and looked at Wanmiao in confusion: "Madam, don't you go out?"

"Yeah." Su Wanmiao nodded with regret, "There are some things in the temple fair that I still need to come out, so if you want to go out, maybe it's only time tonight."

This is indeed a pity.

So in the afternoon, Du Bai took Su Zhirou, his maid Xiaoyinger and a monster servant out for a walk.

However, at this time the entire road in front of the City God Temple was already crowded, and there was probably no scene of worshiping the City God. Only the lion's heads that were flying from the lion dancers among the crowd could be vaguely seen. Su Zhirou and Ying'er were a little regretful, but Du Bai didn't care much about this.

The City God Temple in this world is now just a false appearance, and the real gods are gone. It is better to ask for the clay statue to come by yourself than to ask for a more suitable person. It is really just to ask for peace of mind.

So the few people did not continue to join in the fun and felt uncomfortable, so they went to another place to take a look.

At this time, the lanterns on the streets near the river bank had been hung one after another. Although you can only truly see such a beautiful scenery at night, you can predict it at this time.

At this time, the little girl Ying'er also pointed to the lanterns above her head excitedly, and jumped and shouted, "Son-in-law, look, these are the lantern festivals I once told you. Are these lights very beautiful! They will be even more beautiful by night!"

Du Bai smiled and nodded, his gaze slowly swept over the top of his head, which made a string of lanterns made of thin ropes. The shapes and patterns on them were beautiful and exquisite. More importantly, these were real candles, made by hand by craftsmen, gathering lights from thousands of families, rather than modern electronic lanterns or products produced through assembly lines.

At first glance, a unique and simple charm that belongs to this era came naturally in his heart, which made him unable to help but touched...

Su Zhirou was not as interested in these lights as Ying'er. After just looking at the lights, she turned her attention to those more novel things.

Such performances of strange people and strange things, or exquisite things that have never been seen before, are more attractive to her than those red and green lanterns.

"What's this?"

At this time, she curiously picked up a fist-sized wood on the stall next to her, which was square, with unique patterns on it and tightly tucked in. It was not obvious what it was for.

Du Bai also looked at him in confusion, and could vaguely see that there seemed to be some clever mechanisms in it, but there was no way to tell the specific ones.

"You have such a good vision, girl!" The stall owner smiled, "This thing is not capable, and most people really can't do it. Come on, let me show you how to use it."

The stall owner picked up another identical piece of wood on the stall, flipped it in his hand for a while, and then pressed a secret wall on one side.

After a few short breaths he pressed, he saw that the wooden block suddenly began to twist automatically. The small squares on it were arranged in an orderly manner, stretching or closing. Although the speed was not fast, it was quite complicated, so that Su Zhirou and Ying'er on the side were a little stunned.

When we finally stopped completely, the originally square piece of wood turned into a vivid little bird carved from wood!

What is even more surprising is that after the stall owner gently tapped the head of the wooden bird, it actually waved its wings like a real bird, slowly hovered up and hovered around the top of the stall owner's head, making a few bird sounds before flying back to the stall owner's palm.

Except it is made of wood, it is almost the same as a living bird!

Seeing this scene, Du Bai was also a little unexpected. He could feel that there was no trace of spells in the wooden bird. In other words, this was achieved entirely through mechanism skills!

"Sure enough, in this world where gods and Buddhas once existed, nothing can be underestimated..." He sighed in his heart, "In the hands of these skilled craftsmen, even a piece of wood can make flowers..."

Seeing the surprised expressions of the people in front of him with satisfaction, the stall owner smiled and turned the wooden bird back to the ordinary piece of wood, happily looking at Su Zhirou: "What do you think of this thing girl?"

"sharp!"

Su Zhirou looked down at the wood in her hand with some excitement and asked curiously: "Can this one in my hand also turn into a bird?"

"This girl might as well give it a try." The stall owner deliberately kept it in a silence.

Su Zhirou nodded, looked up and down at the wood in her hand, found the secret wall that was suspected to be a switch, and then gently pressed it down.

Then he widened his eyes and saw that the wood in his hand had rotated and did not turn into a bird, but became a beautiful butterfly the size of a palm, lying quietly on the palm of her hand.

"What a beautiful butterfly..."

Ying'er and Su Zhirou both looked at the gadget in surprise, especially the delicate carving and coloring, almost thinking that this was a truly beautiful butterfly!

After gently pressing, the butterfly flapped its wings and turned around Su Zhirou, light as the wind, and beautiful.
