Chapter 141: Gathering (1)
The long anticipated Mid-Autumn Festival finally arrived in Fan Hua Town.
The last play had started. This morning was the last morning that Fan Hua Town was open to the visitors. After noon time, Fan Hua Town would completely become Prince Jing's Private Mansion that only its villagers could enter at will.
It was the new rule Lin Si Yao had just established. Although it was an unwritten rule, nobody dared to violate or not follow.
Because there was a maze of several meters wide installed at the two entrances of Fan Hua Town.
It was an apricot blossom forest, which looked as though they were neatly planted. However, people who hadn't mastered the art of creating formations like the Seven Star Eight Diagram formation would never find the entrance to Fan Hua Town in the middle of puzzling apricot blossoms.
Situ Yun and a dozen of his brothers had come to each household in the village to explain to them how to get in and out of the town. It was actually really simple. They just needed to close their eyes in front of the forest and walk twenty steps straight ahead, which would get them to the temple at the town's gate entrance.
Anyway, after fifteen days open to welcome the visitors from other towns and cities to watch the plays, Fan Hua Town's residents had lost interest in the visits by outsiders. Although the entire town had asked and requested the visitors so many times, the clean and neat private mansion had been trespassed and dirty. After two times of warning, there were visitors being expelled. However, the fruits on the trees that jutted out of the wall were all gone. As long as it was the place the visitors could come, there were no fruits left in the orchard.
Thus, what Lin Si Yao proposed had solved their predicament. The entire town's residents clapped their hands in agreement.
And from that day, Fan Hua Town really had an impenetrable barrier.
"Finally, I can live in peace." Si Luo lifted his chin and poured the aromatic two-year Osmanthus flower wine into his mouth. He squinted his eyes in delight.
"Right. Actually, who had come up with such a stupid idea? Playing drama for half a month? Open to the guests? Tch... It's not any temple or pagoda. We even offered free tea..." Si Chong took a sip of the good wine, talking.
"The Town Elder suggested and Manager Xiao agreed. That's why it took place. Anyway, it's good then. Because of this inconvenience, the stubborn people in this village won't speak against the formation set up in town." Lin Si Yao leaned against his chair's backrest, lifting his cup, and watched the beautiful mountain in the distance. The sun still hung high above the mountain range during the afternoon in early autumn, shining on the blooming lotus lake. It was absolutely mesmerizing!
"This wine is excellent! I wonder if there's more?" Si Luo shook the wine bottle that didn't have much wine left. Rising the corner of his mouth, he looked at Lin Si Yao.
"No more. Su Shuilian has made only that one bottle. If you guys didn't show up and they didn't show up, with the four of my family here, we would be able to make more good wine." Lin Si Yao answered but he didn't even mind turning his head around. However, the smile at the bottom of his eyes didn't affect his emotionless statement. Listening to him, Si Luo and the others couldn't help but exchange looks. Is he saying that we're so annoyed? What an inhuman, awkward man! They mumbled in unison.
