Chapter 168 Colorful Lantern Festival and Happy Food in Commercial Street (4)
Lu Bao used "good lanterns" instead of "good-looking lanterns", which means that the lanterns they made are likely to be more than just good-looking. Yun Bai and his friends were curious and excited, and after lunch, they couldn't wait to take the teleportation array back to Cangyu.
And when the four of them saw the work that Teacher Lu Bao and his hundreds of students had created over the whole morning, they were shocked on the spot - yes, shocked. More than a thousand colorful lights filled the Cangyu No. 1 Martial Arts Arena. As long as spiritual power was input, they seemed to come alive. Not only were they lifelike, but they were also very smart - more importantly, they were all magical instruments and treasures of different grades, and even spiritual instruments!
After being shocked, I saw Teacher Lu Bao coming over with a proud look on his face, and then he introduced them to everyone like a treasure:
"This Qingyun Pine Lamp is a mid-grade magic weapon. After inputting spiritual power, it can collect 1% more wood and wind spiritual power. It is especially suitable for children who have just started to learn and have a high affinity for wood and wind spiritual power. Keeping it by your side all year round can improve the speed of your child's cultivation little by little, and it may also increase the attribute affinity!"
"These torch lanterns, ice arrowfish lanterns, earth spirit mouse lanterns, sword star knife orchid lanterns, etc., are similar to the Qingyun pine lanterns, but they have different properties, grades, and effects. But they are all good lanterns!"
"And this one, made by Zhao Zijian from Class 9—Xiaobai, you know Zhao Zijian, right? I mentioned to you before that he is very talented in spiritual tools. This time he is going to make a set of Azure Dragon colored lanterns, consisting of 28 colored lanterns, each of which is as big as a low-grade magic weapon. If the 28 colored lanterns are combined together, they can reach the level of a medium-grade magic weapon! This set of lanterns can be decorated in gardens or spiritual fields. They will automatically absorb wood spiritual power and nourish spiritual plants. They can also form formations to play a protective role! He has already made 3 lanterns this morning, and the rest should be finished in three days."
"And these, can nourish the soul, these, can also be used for transportation, these are not only beautiful, but can also become puppets, helping the owner to complete basic tasks of serving tea and water! And those..." Lu Bao talked incessantly, and every word between the lines expressed his love and admiration for his students. He said that although these children have average talent for cultivation and may not be particularly outstanding in the field of spiritual weapons, as long as they are given enough space, they can give back to you with endless creativity and imagination, which is really gratifying and delightful!
"Come, let me show you my work!" After praising his students, Lu Bao mysteriously took Yun Bai and the others to the other side of the playground, where there was a huge golden dragon head! At first glance, the dragon head looked like a real one, which scared Yun Bai - how come it looked so much like the real old man Long?
"Hey, how's it? Awesome, right? I made it based on the image of Lord Jie Shen! This is also a set of colored lanterns. When it's finished, there will be 99 lanterns in total, forming a complete golden dragon. Because we were in a hurry, the grade will not be high, it should be at the level of high-level magic weapon to low-level spiritual weapon. However, its function is very powerful, which is to automatically adjust the energy field within meters around it, so that the energy in this area tends to be peaceful - this is the 'feng shui' you told me about before, which gave me inspiration. With this golden dragon, the feng shui near it will become better and better, whether it is for the people nearby or the spiritual plants and beasts, it will have subtle benefits! When time is not urgent in the future, I will think about raising its grade, and then the effect will be better and the coverage will be larger!"
"Wow! Teacher Lu Bao, you are so great! The students in your class are also great! I dare say that once these lanterns are unveiled, they will definitely be very popular, and the commercial street will become famous again! Hahaha! It's great!" Yun Bai praised and was happy from the bottom of his heart. The others were also like this. Everyone was in high spirits and admired it for a long time before going back to work. After communicating with Mr. Hua Zhenbang, it was determined that the date for the event would be three days later!
After discussing these, Yun Bai first went to his spiritual field and cast a wave of spiritual guidance to make the spiritual seedlings and plants grow taller. Then he stayed with the other three to watch the students in the spiritual weapon class make lanterns. About an hour later, they said goodbye to Teacher Lu Bao and returned to the Happy Courtyard. Old Man Long was taking a nap again. When he saw the four people coming back, he excitedly pulled them to continue making lanterns.
Although the four of them seemed a bit idle—neither practicing nor practicing their spiritual skills, Old Man Long did not interfere. Because practicing is not just about hard work, sometimes a short break can make the practice more efficient. Moreover, the so-called "all methods are accessible" means that practice is everywhere in life. People with high comprehension do not need to retreat every day. They can also improve their cultivation by doing some inconspicuous little things, or gain enlightenment to achieve a staged breakthrough. For example, Xiaohua achieved enlightenment about the control of spiritual power under the guidance of Old Man Long by making lanterns. For example, during the completion of the task, Yun Bai's cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds and the advancement of the spiritual guidance technique. These are not what can be achieved by practicing behind closed doors.
They are all smart people, so they naturally understand this truth. And, maybe because Yun Bai came from the previous world, she always believes that life cannot only be about cultivation and advancement, but should be colorful to be more meaningful. Xiaohua, Mu Yun and Zhao Hongshan also agree with her point of view, so there are so many hobbies, and there are all kinds of good ideas and creativity. And in many cases, their ideas and creativity do feed back to their cultivation and spiritual skills, forming a virtuous circle of mutual promotion.
That afternoon, inspired by Lu Bao and his students, Yun Bai and his friends made a few more lanterns. Although they could not be considered magical instruments, they became more lively and from the appearance alone, they were almost indistinguishable from the real ones.
Later, Mr. Hua Zhenbang and Yuan Ye came together to the Happy Courtyard. The two now basically regard this place as another home. They are busy with their own things during the day, and come back to eat, practice, and chat at night. Today, the two came back with good news. The Commercial Street Management Committee has arranged the activities of the Lantern Festival and the Food Festival. The existing more than 300 merchants unanimously agree with the activities and expressed their full support and cooperation. They heard that they can make lanterns with shop logos by themselves. The shop owners are very interested and think this is a good idea and a good opportunity to promote their shops. Many have already started to take action. Some have even asked Hua Zhenbang to help contact Lu Bao and ask them to make it for them. In short, judging from the current situation, it is estimated that at least 3,000 lanterns will be unveiled at the same time, turning the Happy Commercial Street into a magnificent world of lanterns!
At the same time, 65 spiritual food shops are gearing up to launch several new products in the next few days. By then, a product tasting venue will be set up in the square in the center of the commercial street. The spiritual chefs of all spiritual food shops will cook on the spot, sell the food on the spot, and provide tastings!
"The flyers have been distributed today. Not long after they were distributed, we received very good feedback. Many shops outside have even come to inquire whether we can arrange a location for them and ask them to pay a certain handling fee or stall fee. I thought the place was very big, so I agreed to all of them! By then, the scene will surely be very lively!" During dinner, Grandpa Hua said to a few people with a smile while drinking the fruit wine brewed by Yunbai.
"That's great! Grandpa, I also made a lantern. Guess which one I made!" Xiaohua actually likes to be lively, and immediately gave her grandfather a test. When the old man heard it, he immediately laughed and said that he would definitely find his granddaughter's lantern - and it was true. On the day when the event officially started, Grandpa Hua found Xiaohua's work almost at a glance - the only ugly one was fresh and unique, and no one else could do it except Xiaohua.
Time always flies by in a busy schedule. In the blink of an eye, three days have passed, and the first colorful lantern festival and food festival of Xingfu Commercial Street has begun! The scene was even more lively than Yun Bai and his friends had expected!
