Golden Summoner

Chapter 270 A chance encounter

Peach Blossom Bridge is crowded with people.

On the edge of the pier near Taohua Bridge, dragon boats are on the water, and the participating teams are gearing up.

The name Peach Blossom Bridge sounds very romantic, but the bridge is not small. It is a huge steel double-arch bridge spanning the Qin'an River. There are also rails on the bridge that can pass rail transit vehicles.

Because of today's dragon boat race, there are not usually many people gathered here.

Peach Blossom Bridge is in the Huilong District of Shangjing City. When Xia Ping'an came, he was also startled by the bustle here. In the square next to Peach Blossom Bridge and on both sides of the pier for dragon boat racing, the people on the bridge were so dark that at a glance Looking at it, it looks like going to a market during the Chinese New Year. There are too many people, at least 70,000 to 80,000 people.

The police in black uniforms are still somewhat useful at this time. Each policeman is blowing a whistle and holding a red baton, and they are struggling to maintain order here. There are riot polices in many places on the streets, squares and bridges. cordon.

There are many cruise ships leaning against the wide Qin'an River, also waiting for the dragon boat to start.

Some of those who sit on the cruise ship to watch the dragon boats have bought their tickets early, and some are rich or expensive.

It must be difficult for ordinary people to find someone in a place like this, but for Xia Pingan, he just used his "remote viewing" ability to search and instantly saw Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was on the Peach Blossom Bridge, occupying a good position to watch the dragon boats. He was also standing on tiptoes, trying hard to find himself among the crowd around him.

Well, I hastily changed into a blue dress, and wore a beautiful wreath on my head. My hair was tied into a beautiful bow with a red silk scarf. My black hair hung down my shoulders, and I looked ethereal and beautiful. , there is a different kind of beauty among the surging crowd.

Looking closely, among the crowd around Cao Cao, there are still a few experts disguised as ordinary people to protect him. Therefore, although there are many people around, Cao Cao's side is relatively relaxed, and there is no trace of anything. Cao Cao seems to be confused. Not aware yet.

There are many young men and women who come here to watch dragon boats...

Just when Xia Pingan saw Cao Cao, among the crowd, two idle young people who came to watch the fun also saw Cao Cao. Their eyes lit up. After looking at each other, they showed malicious smiles and walked from the bridge. Both sides crowded towards the grass.

Cao Cao didn't notice anything wrong at all and was still looking around...

Then, a figure suddenly rose into the sky on the bridge...

"Thump...thump..."

Water splashed under the bridge, and two people fell into the river inexplicably from the bridge.

"Ah, someone fell into the water..." the people on the bridge shouted.

This kind of thing is common. Every year when watching a dragon boat, someone falls into the water. Looking at the two people struggling in the water, the people on the shore and the bridge laughed. They were not nervous at all, but added a few more. It was so joyful that only the police who maintained order took a lifebuoy from the shore, threw it into the water, and asked the young man who fell into the water to swim to the shore by himself.

Xia Pingan passed through the crowd and came to the bridge, where he finally saw Cao Cao.

"Ah, you're here..." Cao Cao saw Xia Pingan squeezed out of the crowd, his eyes brightened, and he waved happily to Xia Pingan.

Xia Pingan also squeezed to Caocao's side, exhaled and smiled, "Huh, I didn't expect so many people here..."

At this moment, Xia Ping'an, in front of Cao Cao, has restored his original appearance, not "Yangcheng". Only when he was at Zhougong Tower and Tianyuanqiao Night Market, he turned into Yangcheng again. It was Yangcheng who bought the boundary beads. , it is also Yangcheng who interprets dreams. No one would think of him.

"Ahem...Have you noticed anything different about me..." He hastily pulled up his skirt and spun around in front of Xia Pingan. The expression on his face was just a few words: "Hurry up and praise me."

Xia Pingan said seriously, "By the way, I found a hair on your ear has a split end..."

He glared at Xia Pingan carelessly, seeming a little angry, but in a blink of an eye, he smiled and said, "You can even notice a split in my hair, so you know what's going on!"

Xia Pingan looked at the crowds on both sides of the pier bridge of the dragon boat team, frowned slightly, and thought, it would be great fun if the Blood Demon Sect made some noise here today.

However, is the Blood Demon Cult really so bold?

Among the crowds on both sides of the bridge and the pier, Xia Ping'an also discovered that many "colleagues" from the Huilong Inspection Office were also here. It seemed that the officials were still on guard.

"By the way, where did this dragon boat team come from? I don't think it comes entirely from Shangjing City?" Xia Ping'an saw those dragon boat teams wearing various colorful flags, which was a little strange. Those flags included family flags, and some Many of the business group banners he had never seen in Shangjing.

"Of course those dragon boat teams come from the provinces of the Great Shang Kingdom. There are also some in the capital city, but they are mostly from the provinces. Those dragon boat races here cost almost 50,000 gold coins..."

"Does it cost so much?"

"Of course, this is an opportunity to show your face in the upper capital. The winning team will be rewarded with half a million gold coins, and will also be able to visit the imperial city and participate in the state banquet. Therefore, at this time of year, wealthy businessmen from various provinces of the Great Shang Kingdom The nobles actually prepare teams to compete in a dragon boat race on the Qin'an River, just to show off their wealth. This dragon boat race lasts for seven consecutive days, with hundreds of teams participating each time..."

It was probably the first time for Cao Cao to watch dragon boats with so many people on the shore and on the bridge. He seemed quite excited. He chattered in front of Xia Pingan and told Xia Pingan the history of dragon boats in the capital.

And Xia Ping'an was thinking about it. Hundreds of teams, each with an admission fee of 50,000 gold coins. After all, if they hold a dragon boat race every year, they can earn tens of millions of gold coins. This is too amazing. It's almost astonishing. The Olympics are awesome.

While Xia Pingan and Caocao were chatting on the bridge, a slender white gorgeous cruise ship passed under the bridge. The cruise ship seemed to be here to watch the dragon boat race.

There was someone on the cruise ship standing on the deck, and Xia Pingan's eyes naturally glanced at the yacht.

The people on the cruise ship seemed to be looking at the scenery on the shore and on the bridge.

Then, Xia Pingan saw Yan Duo on the white cruise ship.

Yan Duo on the white cruise ship also saw Xia Pingan.

Xia Ping'an thought he was dazzled, so he rubbed his eyes and looked over again. Damn it, that bastard is Yan Duo.

Even Xia Ping'an would recognize Yan Duo's temperament.

Yan Duo changed his hair style and had short black hair, a masculine beard around his mouth, and wore a white shirt and black breeches. He unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt to reveal his chest. , dissolute, high-spirited, like a playboy among the nobles, with a beautiful young woman wearing a palace dress and a hat with beautiful bird feathers on her right hand. The young woman is pointing at the scenery by the Qin'an River, and Yan Duo said something.

Of course, Yan Duo, who was accompanying the beautiful countess on the cruise ship, also thought he was dazzled. He almost simultaneously made the same move as Xi Ping'an, rubbed his eyes, and looked over.

Xia Pingan's appearance on the Peach Blossom Bridge has not changed much in Yan Duo's eyes. He is wearing a black exquisite coat and a top hat. He looks like a gentleman in the capital. Look at the grass beside Xia Pingan. , Yan Duo was also dazzled by Cao Cao's peerless beauty. Yan Duo also cursed in his stomach, "Damn, how come Xia Ping'an, this bastard, is surrounded by such top-level girls wherever he goes, is there any justice..."

Two people who came to this world from the earth to participate in the "Matching the Sky Project" met dramatically here. For a moment, both of them were surprised, happy and speechless.

Xia Ping'an didn't jump off, and Yan Duo didn't jump up either. The two of them just looked at each other, with their eyes intersecting, as the white cruise ship gradually moved away.

Yan Duo on the yacht suddenly remembered something, and made a few sign language gestures with Xia Pingan, and Xia Pingan nodded.

Behind the white yacht, there is a very special cyan flag. On the cyan flag, there is a golden anchor and a green bird. Among the dragon boat teams in the distance, there is a flag of the team and the flag on the yacht. Same.

"Where did that white cruise ship come from? It seems that it also sent a team to participate in the dragon boat race..." Xia Ping'an asked Cao Cao.

He glanced at the flag on the white cruise ship and said naturally, "That is the emblem of Countess Lin Qing of Beihai. Countess Lin Qing is a famous female widow and rich woman in the Great Shang Kingdom. She goes to the dragon boat race in Beijing every year. She would send teams to participate, but within a few years, the best ranking her team achieved was only seventeenth place..."
