Chapter 168: Toad-like Little Bakas

Shen Chaoyan ran forward curiously, wanting to find out what was going on.

However,

when she saw a row of ninjas stuck headfirst in the river, she was stunned at first, and then laughed like a goose.

Before these ninjas took action, they definitely had not bought the newspapers she sold, so they didn't know the weather here in the Great Xia Dynasty.

The temperature has dropped sharply recently, and the water in the river has frozen into a thick layer of ice.

These ninjas wanted to escape by water, but they ran into the ice head-on.

Some ninjas even jumped too hard and were knocked unconscious on the spot.

See! The little Bakas are so bad that even God couldn't stand it and punished them for the people of Great Xia!

Seeing Shen Chaoyan laughing so happily, Sikong Yan also walked to the river.

He was a man who never showed his emotions, but he couldn't help laughing when he saw the ninjas in the river smashing holes in the ice with their heads and sticking their legs in the air like toads.

"Xuan Cang, what did you call these little bastards?"

The man stood beside Shen Chaoyan and couldn't remember what she had just called these ninjas.

Shen Chaoyan quickly replied, "Little bastards."

"Yes, Xuan Cang, take these little bastards back and interrogate them thoroughly. You must get useful information from them."

"Yes!"

Xuan Cang blew the whistle to summon the secret guards who were ambushing nearby, and ordered, "Take them all away!"

Shen Chaoyan looked at the ninja who was tied up, ate a candied haws that she had not finished eating in her hand, and said to Sikong Yan with a smile, "Your Majesty, we won a great victory tonight, shouldn't we celebrate it?" Sikong Yan raised

his hand, pinched the sugar residue on the corner of her mouth, and curled his lips, "How do you want to celebrate?"

"A new wine shop has recently opened in the capital, shall we go and try it?"

"Okay."

Seeing her sparkling eyes, Sikong Xin's smile deepened a little, revealing full of doting, "You have made an invaluable contribution to catching these turtles tonight. Just eat whatever you want, I'll treat you!"

"Then I have to try all the signature dishes in the restaurant! Don't complain that I eat too much when the time comes!"

"I know how much you eat, I can afford it."

A quarter of an hour ago.

Several long streets nearby were still bustling, and the streets were crowded with people, except for the lanterns.

Sikong Xin, accompanied by a maid, ate snacks while admiring the lanterns.

In order to facilitate their actions, the master and servant wore men's clothes.

"Princess..."

"Hmm?"

Sikong Xin glanced over, and the maid Qin Shuang immediately changed her words, "Young Master, look! What kind of bird is that lantern over there? It's so cute and plump!"

Sikong Xin followed her line of sight and saw a round white lantern.

Her eyes lit up and she waved to Qin Shuang, "Come on, I'll take you to buy a lantern!"

Sikong Xin and Qin Shuang came to the stall and pointed at the lantern hanging above their heads and asked, "Boss, what kind of lantern is this?"

"This is a dove lantern, symbolizing peace, freedom and diligence. It also symbolizes that our Great Xia Dynasty has good weather and the people live and work in peace and contentment!"

"Boss, I want this pair of dove lanterns!"

As soon as the boss finished explaining, a clear male voice sounded from behind Sikong Xin and the others.

Sikong Xin turned around, and when he saw the man standing behind him, his handsome brows wrinkled, "It's you? I was the first one to see these two pigeon lanterns! Why did you steal my lanterns!"

Shen Linfeng didn't expect that he would meet an acquaintance while shopping.

He looked at the dove lamp still hanging on the stall and said, "You were just looking at the dove lamp and didn't tell the stall owner that you wanted to buy it, but I had already ordered the dove lamp from the stall owner, so the dove lamp is mine."

Sikong Xin listened to his confident words and said unconvinced, "Obviously I was here first! I saw the dove lamp first! Boss, I want the dove lamp!"

Qin Shuang also echoed, "That's right! We were the first to see the dove lamp! Boss, you have to sell it to us!"

Even though Shen Linfeng was wearing thicker clothes, it could still be seen that his figure was taller than before.

At this time, he took two steps forward and said to the stall owner, "Boss, I wanted the dove lamp first!"

The stall owner saw that the two of them were dressed elegantly, and was immediately in trouble, "This... there are only the last two dove lamps left. How about, one for each of the two guests?"

"No! Pigeons should be in pairs! Can't be separated! I want both!"

Sikong Xin glared at Shen Linfeng and vowed to get the dove lamps, "Boss, no matter how much he offers, I will pay twice as much for this pair of dove lamps!"

Tsk tsk tsk!

No wonder his sister said that the princess would spend money at the slightest disagreement!

Shen Linfeng originally wanted to tease Sikong Xin, and seeing that she was acting like a wealthy landlord, he couldn't help but lean over to her ear and whispered to her, "Your Highness, your money didn't come from the wind. I'm going to give you this pair of dove lanterns today. You owe me a favor."

After that, he looked up at the stall owner and said, "Boss, please sell this pair of dove lanterns to them. Remember, sell them at the original price! Don't raise the price!"

Sikong Xin looked at him suspiciously, as if she didn't believe he would be so kind, "Dove lanterns, you really don't want any of them?"

Shen Linfeng nodded, "You're right, pigeons should be in pairs, and they shouldn't be separated."

"Of course! What I say is right!"

"Okay!"

The boss took down the pigeon lanterns and handed them to her.

The pair of pigeon lanterns were plump and round, and looked cute. It would be interesting to hang them by the window.

Shen Linfeng saw her holding the lanterns and gently shaking the two pigeon lanterns. The pigeons seemed to be alive, spreading their wings and flying leisurely in the air.

Shen Linfeng looked at the pigeon lanterns in her hands, and the corners of his lips curled up.

Two, in pairs, are indeed better.

"Princess, look over there! That person can spit fire!"

Qin Shuang pointed to a few people performing juggling not far away, her face full of excitement.

"Let's go! Let's go and take a look!"

This year's Lantern Festival is more lively than previous years. Not only are there more stalls selling goods on the street, but there are also endless performances.

Sikong Xin and her servant carefully protected the pigeon lantern.

The pigeon lantern is made of paper, a thin layer. She bought it with great difficulty, and she couldn't let anyone bump into it.

The two squeezed in front of the juggling stall and saw two performers still shirtless in the middle of winter.

"Oh my God! Sir, look!"

Qin Shuang's eyes widened as she watched the performer's performance. "The fire really came out of his mouth! This is amazing!"

It was also the first time for Sikong Xin to squeeze in among the common people to watch a performance. "Yeah, why can he spit fire out of his mouth? It's so magical!"

At this time, the familiar male voice sounded again behind them.

"Three minutes on stage, ten years of practice off stage. This Master Sun has been learning Qigong fire-breathing since he was nine years old. He has kerosene in his mouth, and when the torch is close to his mouth, he uses the power of Dantian to blow the kerosene out of his mouth. During this process, he must continue to use force to blow the fire with his mouth to avoid the fire burning his face."

Shen Linfeng paused, and then continued, "If you accidentally inhale a breath, you will get burned. At the very least, you will be burned, and at the worst, you will be burned to death."
