Chapter 51 Ancient City

In the evening, Cen Xiyan proposed to organize vigils in groups, which not only guarded against sudden dangers such as wild beasts, but also set fires to spread and cause forest fires.

Wei San offered to join Cen Xiyan in a group. Seeing his persistence, Cen Xiyan reluctantly nodded in agreement.

As expected by Cen Xiyan, after they took the chisel and hammer, Wei San chatted with her again.

"In the evening, Brother Suifeng climbed up the tree. What were you looking at?" Wei San asked seemingly casually.

"It depends on the weather." Cen Xiyan replied. There is nothing to hide.

"Depends on the weather?"

"Well, let's see what the weather is like tomorrow, what kind of wind it will blow, and whether it will rain. So we can prepare in advance."

Wei San asked in surprise: "Brother Suifeng still knows about astronomy?"

Cen Xiyan chuckled lightly and said casually: "Everyone who knows how to farm will understand."

"Oh? What should I say?"

"'The sun haloes with rain in the middle of the night, the moon hazes with the wind at noon', 'The sun is rainbow in the east, the rain is rainbow in the west', 'The morning glow does not go out, but the sunset glow travels thousands of miles', 'The stars blink, and the rain is not far away', 'The sun rises at one o'clock

Red, if it doesn't rain, it will be wind..." Cen Xiyan said several proverbs in one breath, and then said with a smile: "These are all proverbs about weather changes that are passed down from farmer to farmer. Farmers in the world are not just all farmers.

Anyone who knows astronomy."

"But Suifeng, you are not a farmer." Wei San was not satisfied with Cen Xiyan's answer.

Cen Xiyan grinned, "I've only been exposed to people from all walks of life, and I've learned a little bit about everything. The so-called 'know everything, be fluent in everything,' is what I'm talking about."

"Suifeng, you are being too modest. This is not good."

Cen Xiyan smiled, added some firewood to the fire, and did not answer.

When Wei San saw that Cen Xiyan didn't want to talk more, he decided not to dwell on the issue and asked, "Tell me, what day is tomorrow?"

"It's a nice day, with light wind and no rain. We can go down the mountain before tomorrow evening."



The next day, it was indeed a rare good weather.

Because of the poisonous fruit incident, Zhao Er was completely honest. Even Chen Liu and the two guards were careful, for fear of touching something they shouldn't touch.

They obeyed Cen Xiyan's words without any objection.

In the evening, a group of people went down the mountain and walked more than thirty miles. When it was dark, they entered Dayan City.

This is the largest city in Chuanzhou. It is an ancient city with multi-ethnic cultures and complex customs.

After entering the city, Canghai led the way and rested at a small inn.

This is a mom-and-pop shop. The owner is from the Naxi ethnic group, and Canghai is very familiar with them.

After dinner, the shopkeeper came to invite the guests to a bonfire dance. Cen Xiyan refused the shopkeeper's kind invitation on the grounds that he was tired and needed to rest.

Because she knew that here, the antiphonal songs and dances of the Naxi, Mosu, Lisu and other ethnic minorities are actually a form of choosing lovers and partners.

When I passed by here before, I also went there to have fun. It was very embarrassing to be teased and teased by those bold and unrestrained foreign girls.

Canghai was a lively person. He dragged Canghai to a bonfire dance and said that he would find him a beautiful Naxi girl to be his wife. However, he was almost slapped away by Jean Cangqing with the hilt of his sword.

Chen Liu and Zhao Er were also a little eager to try, but seeing that Wei San had no intention of going, they didn't dare to say a word.

Wei San saw what they were thinking and said, "You guys go and have some fun, but you have to travel tomorrow, so remember to go early and come back early."

"Don't worry, Third Young Master, you won't delay the business!"
