Chapter 95 City of Ten Thousand Flowers

There is a saying that there are different pronunciations of ten miles and hundreds of miles and different customs. Although this sentence is not suitable for use in this world, as it approaches Wanhua City, Liu Xiu clearly feels that this place is very different from other places.

First of all, the people here dress more conspicuously, whether it is civilians or dignitaries. For the poor, although they are simple, the clothes on their bodies are also made of different colors of fabrics, and the same is true for dignitaries, but they wear more exquisite materials on them.

This 'colorful' outfit does not make people feel dazzling and vulgar, but instead has a unique and cheerful style.

Perhaps influenced by the "bold dress" style, the people here are also cheerful, without the pretentiousness, and their tone of speaking is straightforward and direct, but they are not unblocked. In such an environment, influenced by people, people will subconsciously put away the "half-cover" half-covered, so that they will not appear out of place with the surrounding environment.

Secondly, this land is a colorful world. Needless to say, architecture is the same as dressing, and the houses built with different eye colors are refreshing, with various colorful flowers, purple, red, pink, white, and yellow...

Countless colorful flowers dotted across the mountains, rivers and earth, and the whole world wanders among the colorful flowers and fragrance, making people feel a sense of desire to indulge in this colorful world.

The closer he got to Wanhua City, the more obvious this difference between him and others became. Various flowers bloomed in the mountains and fields. Liu Xiu was surprised that he found that he did not recognize most of the flowers.

He can only say that the name Wanhua City is truly worthy of its reputation, and maybe there are really ten thousand kinds of flowers on this land.

It’s just that I’m so colorful before I reach Wanhua City. What kind of scene should the drunken flower shade be?

"This trip is worth it..." Liu Xiu said in his heart by walking in the ocean of flowers.

He came a little early. He had already had ten days to get to Wanhua City, but he walked it in half an evening. Ten days later was the true peak of the blooming flowers, and one of the grand festivals in this world was 'plot' after fifteen days.

Despite this, Liu Xiu also clearly felt the festive atmosphere on the way to Wanhua City. Most of the conversations about people are related to the plot. How to dress up to be brilliant on that day, how to find the person you like, and how to make a good fortune while taking advantage of this grand festival...

It can be imagined that during the ‘plot’, merchants selling rouge, gourmet and clothes will become rich.

As Liu Xiu learned during this period, there is almost no obvious phenomenon in this world where men are superior to women. After all, many women are powerful warriors, but real ladies are also unwilling to show up in public, except for women who have entered the world.

However, on that day of the plot, no matter how beautiful the ladies of a family are, they will dress up beautifully and go out. That day, they are fighting for beauty.

I don't know if the flowers are beautiful or the people are more beautiful.

That day was a carnival between young men and women, only once a year, and it is unknown what the flowers fall in.

At the same time, that day was in addition to the public "blind date" festival, there were also various activities. The most talked about were two activities, namely the Courtesan Competition and the Hundred Flowers List!

The Flower Court Competition is not as imagined by people, but the real "Flower Court" and the "Flower Court". At that time, countless people who love and love flowers will compete with their carefully cultivated flowers to select the best "Flower Court". If you are lucky enough to win the championship, then the owner of the flower will win both fame and fortune.

Fame is a means of cultivating people who win the courtesans and have been recognized by everyone, so there is no need to mention the profit. Some of the flowers that win the courtesans are snatched by people at high prices, and countless people themselves are willing to spend high salaries to hire their own gardeners.

Therefore, in Wanhua City, the profession of gardeners is quite popular. Of course, the profession of gardeners in other places also has good fame and fortune. Well, it is naturally incomparable to warriors...

The second is the Hundred Flowers List. Relatively speaking, the Hundred Flowers List is not as eye-catching as the Courtesan Competition, because it is not a real event, but a spontaneous organization of many idle people or forces to select the most dazzling one hundred flowers in the world.

The flowers here of course refer to people, and they are women. It is conceivable that once a woman gets the title of one of the hundreds of flowers, she can be famous all over the world in an instant.

Why are only women on the list? It is not fair to those big guys who like women's clothing...

This Hundred Flowers List is not an event in Wanhua City, but it affects the whole world. Any woman may be on the list, provided that she has the "strength".

The water here is very deep, and it will inevitably breed various problems. For example, what should a woman with outstanding talent and appearance do not want to become famous? For example, how terrible organizational skills does such a large-scale selection require?

Therefore, it is inevitable that there is a transcendent force behind this, but Liu Xiu has no way of knowing what exactly it is.

Liu Xiu also learned that if a woman is on the list and if she doesn't want to become famous, the organizer will not disclose her information, but will only mention a simple name.

Even if it is just a simple name, the Hundred Flowers List is held once a year. I don’t know how many times it has been held. People in the world have not questioned its authority. At most, they will only sigh at who the woman who does not want to become famous is.

The beauty is easy to grow old, and it makes sense that the Hundred Flowers List once a year. New flowers are born every year. Naturally, there are also "old" flowers that are indifferent to the public. Of course, there are also those who dominate the list all year round.

These are just what Liu Xiu found out and guessed by himself. He doesn't understand the specific details.

However, one thing that is certain is that the selection of the Hundred Flowers List has actually started a long time ago, and it will be announced to the whole world on the day of the plot.

The Courtesan Competition and the Hundred Flowers List really pushed the plot atmosphere to the peak. People talked about it and looked forward to that day.

After walking and stopping, Liu Xiu came to Wanhua City in the afternoon.

There is no city wall here, it is a city that stretches to the end of its sight. This city wanders in the world of flowers. The exquisite buildings, streets, alleys, and buildings themselves can be seen everywhere, which are beautiful and magnificent.

The brilliance of the sunset shines on this city, like a dream.

Looking at the city, Liu Xiu took a light breath, and all kinds of fragrances filled his nose and made people intoxicated.

"Those who are allergic to pollen may not be able to live here for a day..." This thought suddenly popped up in their minds, and Liu Xiu walked towards this city that is inseparable from flowers with a smile.

Coming here to enjoy the flowers and view the scenery is just one of Liu Xiu's purposes. He also wanted to taste the 100-year-old wine here. As the rumors say, nearly 5,000 gold is in the basket. It should be enough? Liu Xiu was a little suspicious about this. After all, in terms of his own experience, many good wines cannot be bought even if they have money.

Walking into Wanhua City, Liu Xiu walked slowly between the sea of ​​flowers, with laughter and joy in his ears. He found that some women were secretly looking at her. Whenever he looked around, the women would laugh and run away.

very nice.

Liu Xiu likes this relaxed and pleasant atmosphere very much. Without intrigue and not so many deep twists and turns, his whole body and mind are empty.

After sunset, the afterglow of the sunset completely disappeared at the end of the horizon. Liu Xiu asked an old lady on the street holding a basket selling flowers: "The old man has disturbed me. Which one in this city can taste the best flower brew?"

This old lady is obviously a local resident and has lived here all her life. It is absolutely right to ask such simple questions to ask such people. If you ask young people, you may not get the answer, and you will even be "slaughtered" if you don't know the answer.

The old lady looked kind and raised her head and smiled, "Is the young man from another place? If you want to talk about Baihuajiu, of course, it is the best among Qingfenglou, but ordinary people don't have that kind of blessing."

The old lady kindly reminded Liu Xiu of course, but she didn't care. She carefully asked how to walk on Qingfeng Tower.

"Young people, buy a sunny red flower. This flower blooms brightly. As long as it is inserted in the water, it can be guaranteed to be unforgettable for a hundred days. You are so beautiful. If you insert it on your head, you can add a third of color. It will definitely attract more women's favor. Only three copper plates are needed." When Liu Xiu turned around and was about to leave, the old lady spoke at the right time.

Liu Xiu smiled silently. He didn't have the habit of putting flowers on his head, but he did not refuse to buy a hundred-day red and three copper plates.

This is a kind of flower that is a bit like roses, brightly red, like blood and fire. From what I saw before, Liu Xiu learned that this kind of flower has another name, called "Xingdong". If it is held in the hand, it is to find the person you like. Regardless of men and women, as long as you hold such a flower in your hand, if someone likes it, you will come to contact it.

After saying goodbye to the old lady, Liu Xiu lowered her head in shock.

"What about the promised hundred-day red? Why did it wither in a blink of an eye?" Liu Xiu was puzzled when he looked at the rapidly withering fiery red flowers in his hand.

I looked back at the old lady and thought to myself that this was not cheated, right?

It can be seen that the other party sold flowers to others and looked fine, but it didn't look like a lie...

After thinking about it, Liu Xiu stretched out a finger, thoughts moved, and a drop of blue water condensed into the fingertips, and then placed it on the flowers.

The withered flowers that are visible to the naked eye stopped and even became more gorgeous quickly.

Nodded, Liu Xiuxin said that this water drop was quite useful, and she shouldn't have been deceived, but she just happened to get a flower that was about to wither.

However, before he could be happy for a moment, the flower withered rapidly, and in a few seconds only a bare branch was left!
