Su Lun and Qian Tiao had already grown very familiar with this way of interacting.
Su Lun didn't mind, either. He took another unabashed look, smiled, and didn't give Qian Tiao the chance to tease him further.
He then asked, "Princess, did you say the 'Black Sun Grand Festival' is in a half month's time?"
The "Black Sun Grand Festival" is the most important ritual event for Mountain Hermits.
The Black Sun, in layman's terms, refers to an "eclipse."
In the legends of the Mountain Hermits, such celestial phenomena are believed to be Amaterasu Omikami, the Sun Deity, hiding away, which is why the world turns dark and lightless. When this happens, a shrine maiden must perform the Kagura dance to worship, and only then will light return to the earth.
Although to a Magician specialized in Alchemy, such a natural astronomical event is given so many special meanings, it all sounds quite mystical.
But Su Lun didn't find it absurd in the least.
