The world is not close to the nameless hill, but because they only walked for the first part, and the way to hurry was to fly, the two of them still saw the world quickly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Not far from the inside and outside of the people, the two walked into the emerald rice fields full of fresh smells.

Walking through the wheat field, Marisa tilted her head left and right to look at the rice paddies around her.

The rice in the field has long since set fruit, and the fruitful rice straw has bent the rice seedlings and swayed in the wind.

Marisa rubbed her nose and smacked her mouth again.

"Well, it looks like everyone will have a good harvest this year."

"After all, there are gods in the people this year."

As if surprised, Marisa raised an eyebrow.

"Oh? Gods, are they the two at Shouya Shrine? ”

Chen An shrugged his shoulders and did not speak.

But Marisa guessed correctly.

Sheltering everyone's harvest is also equivalent to sheltering everyone's happy future.

That's amazing.

Thinking so, Marisa unconsciously lowered the brim of her hat, and took the opportunity to look at Chen An beside her quietly.

Because she was one step behind and her long hair was still covering, Marisa could only see the general outline of Chen An's side face.

It's close, but it's blurry.

Marisa tried to squint to see the blurred outline, but it didn't do anything other than make her eyes sour.

She sighed imperceptibly.

Happiness, I probably can only have such vague happiness.

As if sensing something, Chen An suddenly turned his head.

"What's wrong?"

The original vague outline suddenly became clear, and Marisa couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

She quickly came back to her senses and walked briskly past Chen An.

A few steps past Chen An, Marisa turned around and walked backwards with her left hand, while smiling and shaking her right index finger at Chen An.

"Haven't you heard of this word?"

"Hometown timidity...... Oh, I don't feel any timidity. ”

Chen An grunted and quickened his pace.

……

"Lord Chen An."

"Lord Fog and Rain."

Walking on the street that is not too busy among people, there are people who say hello to Chen An and Marisa from time to time.

Marisa didn't know how to respond, so she could only stiffen her body, follow Chen An a little nervously, and then nodded one by one, even if it was a response.

I had long been accustomed to Chen An and Marisa together, and the residents greeted each other, and they didn't stop for a moment, and walked past the two of them one after another.

Unlike Marisa's silent and stiff response. For everyone's greetings, Chen An naturally called out their names, and responded back one by one with a smile.

"Yo, Shicun, you look good, it seems that you have been doing quite well recently."

"Ah, isn't this Miyu? Haha, I actually walked with the fan, it seems that the two of you have finally achieved positive results. ”

Marisa was surprised to see that Anna Chen's kind and completely different reaction from her own greeted everyone.

"Why, there are so many people who just said hello, do you know them all?"

"yes. I can't call out all the people in the house, but once I've seen them, I know them all. ”

The corners of Chen An's lips turned up slightly, and she smiled at Marisa as gentle and soft as the afternoon sun, and responded to the residents who passed by.

Strangely, under Chen An's smile, Marisa's body unconsciously relaxed.

She raised her hand and patted Chen An's shoulder, as if admiring something.

"You really know everything, your memory is really amazing."

"Haha, of course you can't forget what should be remembered, not to mention just some inconsequential things."

Chen An still had that warm smile on his face, but there seemed to be something in his eyes.

He tilted his head, and inadvertently, kicked a stone lightly with his foot.

"By the way, where are you going now? Go home? ”

The stone rolled and landed right at Marisa's feet, and after a pause, she turned around and kicked it away with her foot.

Very hard, he kicked directly into the river not far away, bringing a crisp splash.

After doing this, Marisa said:

“…… Home, which home? ”

Chen An looked at Marisa strangely.

"Fog and rain prop shop. Do you have any other home besides that? ”

"Fog and rain prop shop, ah......"

Marisa's steps suddenly retracted, and her smug expression was replaced by hesitation.

"But I've run away from home since I was a child, so if I go back like this, will I be ...... The old man is smiling? ”

Chen An was stunned for a moment, raised his hand, and knocked on Marisa's head with an angry look.

"What a stupid thing, the manager of the store is your father.

As a daughter, when you go back, how can he laugh at you except for being happy.

Also, did you get something wrong?

Although you ran away from home in black and white, two years ago, you had already returned to the Wuyu family and released your suspicions with the store manager of the Wuyu store. ”

Marisa's eyes widened in surprise, her mouth slightly open, and she didn't even bother to knock Chen An on her head.

"Oops!! Ice release suspicion, really fake? ”

"Nonsense, otherwise why do you think everyone on the road knows you.

It's not that you and the store manager of the foggy rain often run away to play after releasing their past suspicions. ”

Chen An explained, like a child, and rubbed Marisa's hat with a smile.

"So, you don't have to think about it anymore, just go home and see your parents."

Marisa seemed to accept Chen An's explanation, and her expression relaxed a lot.

She reached out and patted Chen An's hand away, and her reassuring expression suddenly became indignant.

"Don't rub my head. Think I'm one of those little ghosts? ”

Chen An squinted.

"Black and white, can you be considered crossing the river and demolishing the bridge?"

Marisa patted her hat that was rubbed by Chen An 'poof', and leaned back with her eyes:

"What's the matter, I'm not happy that you're coming to beat me!"

As soon as the voice fell, "Bang! With a snort, Marisa snorted and replaced her hat rubbing her hat with covering her head.

She covered her head with her hands and glared at Chen An angrily.

"Bastard! Why are you beating me? ”

"Didn't you say that?"

Chen An pretended to be surprised, and then shook his head and sighed.

"Someone will take the initiative to find a fight, it's really a brain in the water."

Chen An said, and continued to shake his head, shook his head, dropped the blackened face of Marisa, and moved forward slowly.

“…… Dare to say that the old lady's brain is in water, you bastard give me a little more moderation! ”

Marisa covered her head and was stunned for a while, before she suddenly screamed angrily, dragging a big broom and angrily chasing after Chen An.

She ran to Chen An's side in three or two steps, opened her mouth and began to curse.

On the crowded street, Chen An didn't bother to mess with Marisa, anyway, no matter how she scolded, he didn't hear it.

Besides, the words "bastard" and idiot over and over again really made Chen An not even in the mood to refute.

Chen An continued to move forward while entering with his left ear and taking Marisa's crooked voice as air from his right ear.

"Huh?"

It was as if he had been watched for a long time, and a subtle feeling suddenly fell on Chen An's back, and then conveyed into his heart.

Is someone watching him?

Chen Anjian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, then he stopped, turned his head and looked around.

It's a pity that nothing strange was found except for a pink back in the corner that ran away in a panic.

Chen An touched his chin.

"Strange, is it an illusion?"

Marisa staggered Chen An for a long time, but found that it didn't play a role in half a copper plate for him at all, so he had already given up before.

When she saw Chen An suddenly looking left and right, she was suddenly surprised, and quickly followed to observe the surroundings.

Marisa looked at it, shaking her eyebrows and said with great interest:

"What's wrong, what's wrong. Did you find any interesting mutations? ”

Chen An didn't find what he was looking for, so he withdrew his gaze. Then he glared angrily at Marisa, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and he was gearing up, as if he was eager to encounter a change immediately, so that he could rush up immediately.

"You're a big mutant! How did your black and white brain, who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, develop? How can it be that in addition to violence, it is still violence?

Didn't you say it the other day? Don't just know by force when you are mutated!

Are you going to wait for me to say yes, and then rush up with the gossip furnace? ”

Marisa's excited expression froze, and she scratched her hair and laughed.

Obviously, it was Chen An who said that he was in his mind.

She quietly stuffed the gossip stove that she had grabbed in her hand back into her pocket, and quibbled:

"But you can't deny that force is the fastest way to solve the mutation, right?

Besides, this is a human being, what if you encounter a change and don't solve it quickly, what if something happens? ”

Chen An saw that Marisa still dared to talk back, and raised his eyebrows, he was really getting more and more angry.

He poked Marisa in the forehead in hatred.

"You know it's human! Knowing that you still take out the gossip furnace whenever you have something, aren't you afraid of accidentally burning people?

I'm telling you, you'd better put your temper away in the future, if you keep doing this, be careful that you can't get married! ”

Marisa is not happy. waved his small fist and protested with Chen An.

"You can't get married! I'm so beautiful and so powerful, how can I not get married! This kind of thing is like the stars in the sky that no one likes, how can it be! ”

Chen An let out a snort from his nose, scoffing at Marisa's words.

"How is that possible? If you don't believe me, you can try it and see if I'm talking nonsense.

With your temper, if anyone dares to look at you, then it's a hell of a sight. ”

Marisa bent the corners of her mouth, looking even more unhappy. She crossed her waist with one hand and held a broom in the other, staring at Chen An with wide eyes.

"Just try! If the old lady wins, don't cry in frustration! ”

"Don't worry, I'm crying, and I'm crying because you can get married and be happy for you."

Chen An waved his hand, and he didn't bother to talk to Marisa on this topic. Instead, he turned and walked to the side of the river.

"Okay, I'll talk about this later, you better come with me now, and I'll take you to meet a friend."

Although he didn't find any strange people when he looked around just now, Chen An saw an acquaintance under the willow tree by the river-Chi Manqi!

"This guy!"

Marisa wrinkled her nose at Chen An's back, and waved her fist vigorously before she followed.

Chen An came to a willow tree by the riverside, leaned against the trunk with his hands on his chest, and said hello to Chi Manqi, who was leaning on the willow tree and looking at the clear water and drinking alone.

"Yo, Red Manqi. I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you look so decrepit? Did you accidentally fall out of love? ”

Chi Manqi looked up at Chen An, who was smiling beside him, and almost couldn't hold back, and directly slapped the wine jug in his hand on his face!

"Wow~Awesome~!"

In Marisa's amazed gaze, Akaman's head suddenly snapped off his neck and flew up.

His head swayed from side to side in the air, and the purple bow on his head swayed, making it feel as if a real butterfly was flying.

The head condescendingly glared at Chen An and accused him loudly.

"Hey! Can you not gloat every time? Don't you see that I'm drinking alcohol?

No more hippie smiling nonsense, I'll beat you believe it or not! ”

"Wow, what a momentum."

Chen An rubbed his arms, pretending to be scared, and smiled again.

With a roll of his eyes, he suddenly took advantage of Chiman's surprise and reached out like lightning to grab the dangling head.

Chen An shook the head with a fierce expression in his hand with a wicked taste, and said solemnly:

"I'm not talking nonsense, I'm not gloating. It's just that I saw you drinking here with a declining look that people can't help but gloat, so I said the curiosity in my heart.

I'm honest, honest understand? ”

While talking shameless nonsense, Chen An changed his trick and threw his head dangling in his hand around.

"Are you honest?! Do you think I'm stupid enough to think that the sun is coming out of the west!? ”

It doesn't matter if Chen An's head is tossed like a toy, but Chen An still has no virtue in his mouth, and he mocks her in various tricks, Chi Manqi's face suddenly turned red, and he almost blew his lungs.

With a slam of her right hand, she smashed the wine jug in her hand at Chen An, and her body jumped up, snatching back her poor head and returning to her body.

Chi Manqi twisted his neck, and when his dizzy vision recovered, he jumped like thunder, angry, and angry...... Anyway, it's just to kill Chen An.

She opened her teeth and danced her claws, and her fists followed the flask thrown out, and hit Chen An in the face.

"You wicked creature! If I'm in a bad mood and don't come to comfort me, I don't care, but I dare to provoke me!? See I can't kill you!! ”

"Tsk, what a murderer."

Chen An turned sideways to dodge the wine jug smashed by Chi Manqi.

Crash!

There was a crisp crack of porcelain, and the flask shattered against the trunk of the tree, and the shards crackled and fell to the ground with the wine.

Chen An whistled and took a step back to dodge Chi Manqi's fist

The Red Barbarian Strange attack was ineffective, and he suddenly became angry.

"Okay, dare to hide...... See how long you can hide, show me the tricks! ”

Chi Manqi gritted his teeth, and decisively kicked it again.

Chen An jumped lightly, and landed accurately on the leg kicked by Chi Manqi. Then, the whole person was like a weightless feather, and floated out with the force of the kick from the red barbarian's leg.

He somersaulted in the air and landed lightly on the water.

Still weighing like a feather, Chen An stood lightly on the water, except for leaving a reflection on the clear water, he didn't even bring a little extra waves.

The wind blew from the river to the shore, making Chen An's long hair flutter wantonly, and with the posture of standing on his water, it was really indescribably chic.

Marisa couldn't help but applaud when she saw it.

"Awesome!"

Chen An arched his hand and said triumphantly:

"Well said, well said."

It's true that Chi Manqi can fly, but he can't step on the surface of the water as a flat ground like Chen An, making his body seem to have no weight.

She was afraid that she would accidentally fall into the water when she flew to the water, so she had to watch Chen An close and triumphant, but she couldn't do anything about him.

"This guy ......"

Unwilling to look at Chen An like this, Chi Manqi bent down to pick up a stone from the ground, and angrily threw it at Chen An.

"Don't make me angry with triumphant, hurry up and come up for me!"

"Am I stupid?"

Chen An glanced at Chi Manqi with disdain, and at the same time leaned back slightly, dodging the attack.

Standing on the water, Chen An looked at Chi Manqi on the shore who was flushed with anger, and had to pant dryly, feeling that Chi Manqi couldn't do anything about him, and suddenly got a little carried away.

The corners of his mouth turned up uncontrollably, revealing a mocking smile, and hooked his fingers at Chi Manqi.

"If you have the ability, you can continue, fool!"

The green tendons on Chimanqi's forehead jumped, and his body trembled violently.

The flames of anger spread through her body, causing her body to tremble, and then it was as if something had ignited, making her already on fire explode like a dynamite keg.

"You still dare to provoke, wait for me...... Die, die, die!! ”

Chi Manqi trembled and picked up a large pile of stones by the river, then danced into a windmill with both hands, and threw all the stones at Chen An with a roar.

Chen An looked at the oncoming stone bullet curtain that was whistling like a bullet and was startled.

"I'm flashing!"

For fear that he would be smashed all over the place, Chen An didn't dare to continue to scream, and quickly disappeared into the water with a teleportation.

Puff puff ......

The stones passed through Chen An's previous location one after another, and sank to the bottom of the river with a series of splashes.

Red Manqi lost his target in vain, first stunned, then raised his eyebrows, looked left and right, and looked for Chen An nearby.

After looking around for a while, he didn't find the guy who was not beaten, and Chi Manqi threw the remaining stones in his hand to the ground, jumping straight in place.

"Guys!? Oh!? ”

"Chi Manqi, are you looking for me?"

"Huh?"

Chi Manqi Huo Ran raised his head, only to find that Chen An, who had disappeared before, was hiding in the canopy of the willow tree that was shaded by wicker.

With his back against the trunk of the tree, one leg flat on the branch, and the other leg shaking, he was drinking leisurely.

Knowing that Chi Manqi had discovered him, Chen An also smiled and bowed his head and beckoned to her.

It's even more annoying!

Looking at Chen An's leisurely expression on the tree, Chi Manqi's eyes widened, and he really couldn't help but be angry.

She crossed her waist with one hand, pointed to Chen An on the tree with the other, and scolded.

"Bastard! Provoked me and still in the mood to drink?!

That kind of leisurely performance, do you think I'm not hot enough?

Hurry up and get me down, and I'll beat you up and beat you half to death, so you can understand what it means to be in moderation! ”

Chen An first raised the wine jug and made a toast to the sky, and then the spout of the pot went downward, allowing himself to drink a good time, and then he shook his finger with the red man who scolded him below.

"Life must be happy, this sentence is a common thing~"

Chen An took another sip of wine as he spoke, and without waiting for Chi Manqi to continue scolding him, he threw the wine jug at her lightly.

"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't get your wine before, and this half pot of wine will be returned to you."

Chi Manqi subconsciously caught the wine jug, and raised his eyebrows.

"So kind?"

She glanced at Chen An suspiciously, and found that there seemed nothing wrong with him except for shrugging his shoulders at her.

No, this guy is definitely not that kind.

Chi Manqi thought to himself, but he was still not very relieved, so he simply lowered his head and carefully observed the wine jug in his hand and the wine in the wine jug, wanting to see if Chen An had done anything on it.

Chen An couldn't cry or laugh.

"Hey, just a jug of wine. Should your reaction be so exaggerated? ”

"Nobody, but this one has to get rid of you nasty bastard first."

Red Manqi replied with such an opinion, and after winning the consent of Marisa, who had been watching the excitement, he stopped examining the flask and the sake.

didn't find a problem, and Chi Manqi took a sip of wine carefully.

The mellow aroma of wine spread in her mouth with the burning alcohol, and she couldn't help but smack her lips.

Chi Manqi took a few sips of wine and gave his opinion to the point.

"Although you don't have a good character, the wine is very good."

When Red Manqi said this, he raised the wine jug to Chen An on the tree in Marisa's surprised gaze.

"Thanks, I'm in a much better mood now."

Chen An smiled slightly, waved his hand,

"Haha, you're welcome, it's just a pot of wine."

"I'm not talking about wine...... Forget it, you're like that, and I'm not polite to you. ”

Chi Manqi muttered, looked at Marisa who was watching him and Chen An scratching his head, as if he was confused, and muttered again.

"Looks like I really forgot."

As soon as Chen An's ears moved, as if he hadn't heard anything, his body leaned back, and he fell lightly from the tree.

"Don't do anything to the old lady, bastard!"

Chen An patted Marisa's head, which was still pondering the previous conversation between him and Chi Manqi, and after making her glare, she smiled and said:

"By the way, what the hell happened to you before, how could you be drinking here alone, are you really out of love?"

“……”

Knowing that Chen An was this nonsense-filled virtue, he was half angry with him before, and Chi Manqi couldn't help but squint his eyes now.

"Hey, can you speak better in the future? This tone of schadenfreude really makes people want to beat you up? ”

Chen An spread his hands, his face full of innocence.

"What kind of schadenfreude, didn't I say it before, I asked from the bottom of my heart!"

Chi Manqi's shoulders shrugged, and it took a lot of effort to hold back and not let himself punch Chen An in the face. She took a sip of wine, and the white of her eyes rolled to the sky.

"From the heart...... Don't you think it makes people want to beat you up even more? ”

"Not at all!"

Chen Anyi said solemnly:

"I can only feel that there is a sincere gloating like me...... Ah, sorry, it's a greeting.

If you give a sincere greeting like mine, the person being greeted will not want to beat me, but will be moved to cry because of my concern. ”

The corners of Chi Manqi's eyes jumped, and his shoulders shrugged even more.

She took two deep breaths and said:

“…… It's right to cry out in anger. And also...... Bastard, you've just spoken your mind!

Schadenfreude, what you just wanted to say was definitely schadenfreude, right? ”

"How is that possible!"

Chen An seemed to have been greatly wronged, and shouted loudly.

He pointed to his eyes that were full of righteousness—he thought he was full of righteousness, and swore that he said:

"Look, look. Look at my eyes, and from the righteousness and honesty that are full of them, can't you still perceive something?

Tell me, is it possible for someone with a righteous and honest eye like me to gloat over others? ”

By now, the shoulders that had been trying to suppress his movements had relaxed.

She squinted with one eye, glanced at Chen An with the other, and smiled.

"I'm sorry, I've seen a lot from your eyes.

I have seen shamelessness, insidiousness, cunning and evil taste, but I just didn't see the righteousness and honesty you said. ”

Chen An froze, and then raised his eyebrows exaggeratedly as if he was furious.

He rolled up his sleeves and scolded Chi Manqi without any grace.

"What!? Dare to say that the uncle is shameless, insidious and cunning!?

Dead flying head, your little girl is impatient, do you want to make the uncle make a trick? ”

"Come on, come on, do you think I'm going to be afraid of you?"

Chi Manqi finally took advantage of it verbally, and he was willing to give up when he was stupid!

She craned her neck and looked at Chen An's eyes full of contempt.

"Call someone whenever something happens, I despise you!"

"That's because I have the ability to call people, and you have the ability to call people!"

"Hah! Don't you understand this kind of thing to solve your own business?

Oh, you really don't understand, because you shameless boy! ”

"What's wrong with shamelessness, uncle is willing!"

"Huh! actually admit to being shameless, you are really shameless. ”

"What's the matter, I'm not happy that you're coming to beat me!"

"Hit it, you think I'm afraid of you!?"

"Come on, come on, uncle, I'll stand here, you come to fight, you come to fight!"

Marisa looked at the inexplicable quarrel, and the noisy face was red and the neck was thick and wanted to fight, but it was the two who only moved their mouths and didn't move, and couldn't help but be speechless.

She interrupted the argument with an impatient wave.

"Hey, are you going to fight or not? If you want to fight, hurry up, I'm still going to watch the show.

Hmph, after arguing for so long, didn't you notice that the sun was going down? ”

"Of course I don't fight, do you think I'm like you, and I only have violence in my head?"

Chen An glanced at Marisa, and ignored Marisa, whose eyes were breathing fire by his words.

He didn't continue to quarrel with Chi Manqi, and returned to the original topic.

"Closer to home, something really wrong with what you just did, did you run into some trouble?"

Chen An spoke seriously, and Chi Manqi naturally would not fail to answer.

She scratched her head as she poured herself another sip of wine.

"I don't know, I was fine yesterday, but this morning I was inexplicably depressed."

Chi Manqi frowned and sighed for a while, then suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly added:

"That's right, that's right. Speaking of which, I was actually quite normal this morning, but after I picked up a mask, my mood suddenly became low. ”

"Masks?"

Marisa's eyes blinked, and she interjected into the conversation, apparently out of curiosity.

"What kind of mask, is it pretty?"

Chi Manqi tilted his head in thought for a moment and shook his head.

"It's not pretty, but it's pretty old."

Marisa scratched her head in confusion.

"Ancient? What does that mean? ”

"Well~"

Chi Manqi didn't know what to say for a while, and finally didn't say it at all, but squatted on the ground and drew directly on the soil with his fingers.

It wasn't until the Red Man had finished sketching the pattern—a frustrated expression—that he clapped his hands and stood up.

She motioned for Marisa to look at the ground.

"Well, that's it."

Marisa propped her chin and crouched on the ground for a moment before she furrowed her brow.

She hammered her hands and came to a conclusion.

"You're drawing a depressed face!"

The Red Man couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Marisa's appearance.

"It's all said it's a mask, and you actually say it's an expression, and the nerves are really speechless."

Marisa didn't feel like she was wrong at all, and crossed her waist with one hand on her shoulder, with a natural expression on her face.

"Nonsense, you've only drawn a few strokes, and it's obviously a frustrated expression, where is it like a mask? Do you think I haven't seen a mask? ”

It's not like Marisa hasn't seen masks, cute animals, serious historical figures, funny, hideous monsters and ghost masks, but she's never seen this kind of painting.

A frustrated expression, and not at all good-looking!

"No, it's a mask."

Chen An traveled south and north, and the days of wandering have passed a lot, and some of them have been spent in Yingzhou in ancient times, and he has seen a lot of things, and naturally knows what kind of mask the expression painted by Chi Manqi represents.

As if surprised, he was stunned for a moment before saying:

"This is a kind of drama that has been passed down in Yingzhou for a long time, called a special mask used in Noh drama."

"Noh?"

"Yes, although no one has ever seen a performance in the world, this ancient drama has indeed been handed down in the outside world.

The props used in Noh dramas are these masks that represent various emotions of people, Noh. ”

Chen An pointed to the painting on the ground.

"This one painted by the Red Man is one of the faces that represent frustration."

Chen An is right, this is the mask of frustration used in Noh dramas.

It's been a long time since I've seen anyone perform a Noh play, so people of your age don't know each other.

I also suddenly saw this rare mask on the road, and I picked it up out of curiosity.

Otherwise, do you think I'm picking up garbage? ”

Chi Manqi emphasized a little, and couldn't help but complain.

"But it's really unlucky to be tricked because of this."

"There really is......

Marisa was amazed for a while, then patted Chen An's arm with a grin.

"Hey, Chen An. Judging by how familiar you looked, it seems that you know a lot about this thing.

How's that, is there a collection of masks like this, take them for me to play with. ”

Marisa's little abacus crackled in her heart, as long as Chen An dared to take things out, she would immediately snatch them away and take them back as her own collection!

As if thinking that he had robbed Chen An of his things to enrich his collection, but Chen An looked helpless, Marisa couldn't help but smirk.

"Give your collection to play with this black and white mouse, isn't that a meat bun beating a dog, is there no return?

Do that kind of stupid thing, you think I'm stupid? ”

Chen An saw through Marisa's careful thoughts at a glance, and decisively shook her head to break her illusion.

"Don't beat me up, although I've done it in the past, I really don't have this kind of thing in my hands now."

When Chen An said this, he couldn't help but look at Marisa, who was unhappy because of the rejection.

"Besides, I don't have any collecting habits like anybody. Except for commemorative ones, I don't always collect ordinary things like this. ”

There are a lot of inexplicable things in Chen An's space, but his personality is not greedy, so those are all unique or very commemorative objects for him.

As for the treasures that ordinary people like, he is really not interested in them under normal circumstances.

Noh noodles are indeed a special mask, but Chen An is not interested, and the commemorative set of Noh noodles was taken away by Miko, so he doesn't have a collection of Noh noodles now—not a single one.

Marisa dissatisfied:

"Hey, what's wrong with collecting habits, what's in your way?"

"Well, just complain casually."

Chen An smiled and said:

"Although I once made a very meaningful Noh mask with Miko, it was later taken away by Miko.

In fact, I am not very interested in those things that are circulated in Yingzhou, so I lost that opportunity, and I have never met the same meaning again, let alone collected. ”

Chen An casually explained a few words, and after answering Marisa, he turned his gaze back to Chimanqi.

"It is said that I picked up Noh noodles, but what about Noh noodles? Why didn't you see it, did it fall somewhere? ”

Marisa was originally frustrated because she couldn't get the Noh mask from Chen An, but now she is in good spirits.

Marisa remade up her mind that she would have her hands on it when she took out her mask, so she asked with a grin:

"yes, what about the mask, can you show it to me?"

Chi Manqi shrugged helplessly.

"I'm sorry, there used to be, but now it's gone."

"Gone?"

Marisa was stunned for a moment, as if she had thought of something, her eyes widened, and she suddenly became angry.

"You won't even take out a mask to show others, you stingy guy!"

Chi Manqi was full of black lines, and he was too lazy to deal with Marisa, who was furious because of the dashing hope of getting something, and explained to Chen An, who was also strange:

"Someone took it. Not long before you came, a girl with long pink hair came to me and said that she had dropped the Noh noodles, so I returned them to her. ”

"That's definitely a liar!"

Marisa was distracted by Red Man's explanation, and said indignantly:

"How else could it be so coincidental that you only picked something up in the morning, and she would have found you at noon? I don't even have the ability to find things! ”

Chen An's eyes were slightly condensed, thoughtful.

"There should be something extraordinary about that Nono."

And pink hair, I always feel like there's a wonderful similarity.

It seems that before, he seemed to have seen a pink-haired girl - the one who ran away in a hurry!

Chi Manqi was still too lazy to take care of Marisa, nodded, and continued to explain to Chen An.

"Yes, as I said before, that Noh noodle is very old, and it has an unusual aura on it.

If it weren't for that, an ordinary Noh mask, where would I be a depressed person drinking here?

The reason why I believe that the mask belongs to the girl is also because she showed me a few other Noh noodles. ”

When Chi Manqi said this, he couldn't help but pout.

"The owner has come to the door, and I don't have the face to hack things."

Chen An nodded in understanding.

The arrogant Red Man Qi is not the same as a black and white mouse who only has a collecting habit, and is not interested in collecting those strange things at all.

I also explained before that picking up the mask was originally because she hadn't seen it for too long, and it was rare to see it, otherwise she wouldn't have picked it up!

And after that, since the owner came to the door, with the character of the red barbarian, he lied and said that he didn't pick it up, and there would be no possibility of giving it to others.

Of course, if it were a black and white mouse, it would probably be cheeky and black.

Chen An thought about it, and couldn't help but squint at Marisa who was looking at Marisa next to him with an unhappy face, and couldn't help but shake his head.

This guy who doesn't make a voice.

Chen An sighed softly.

"What about the owner?"

Chi Manqi shrugged his shoulders and said boringly:

"Who knows. When I just got the mask, I don't know if I suddenly saw a ghost, and I didn't say a word of thanks, so I ran away in a panic.

Oh, obviously expressionless, that kind of gaffe is really out of harmony. ”

"Well, it always feels a little strange."

"Well, forget it. I still have to leave beforehand, so you can drink it slowly by yourself. ”

Chen An glanced at the mask pattern on the ground again, and sighed and didn't bother to think about it. He conjured up another jug of wine and handed it to Red Man, and Marisa turned away.

"This guy really likes to be reluctant......"

Chi Manqi looked at Chen An and Marisa's backs and shook his head, sighed and continued to sit under the willow tree and drink.

Of course, this time it wasn't stuffy drinking!

……

Marisa and Chen An walked down the street, still a little unwilling.

"Chen An. Don't you really have any weird masks in your hands? ”

Quirky masks?

Chen An paused, and he understood what the strange mask Marisa was talking about - Noh Noodles!

He was speechless:

“…… Didn't you say it before, I didn't have a face.

If you really want it, why don't you go to Miko, she may have it. ”

Marisa turned her face away unhappily.

"I don't want to go, I'm not familiar with her, it's strange that she'll give me things."

"Then don't make up your mind!"

Chen An put his hands behind his neck, his eyes wandered around, and he said casually:

"You want to put everything in your arms, and you're not afraid that sooner or later, your home will be filled with those garbage, and then turn back into the original garbage heap?

Did you know that cleaning up that nest of yours is tiring? I don't want you to wear out Ame. ”

Marisa was dissatisfied, and turned her head to glare at Chen An.

"What kind of garbage, the things in my house are all collected by me little by little, but they are all my treasures!"

Chen An snorted disdainfully.

"Collect, borrowed the cat from the left and right, right? I'm embarrassed to say baby, nine out of ten of your things I don't know what they do. ”

Marisa grinned, even more dissatisfied.

"Do you think you're Linzi, and you can understand what you're for?

Hmph, it's Linzi, she can see what things are for, there are still many things that can't be used. ”

"You're right, for me, it's a blink of an eye to know the usefulness of something."

Chen An smiled, and his hands naturally dropped from his neck and carried them behind his back.

With his fluttering eyes retracted, he looked straight ahead and said in a tone that had experienced the vicissitudes of life, but made people feel flat:

"But, I don't think there's any need for that kind of thing. Because if you know everything, you'll get bored easily.

If you know everything, understand everything, understand everything, you will find that there is no expectation in life; And without expectations, there are no unknowns and surprises.

Once life loses those things, you will find that you are left to live only in your life.

Simple, the only thing left, just to live for the sake of living. ”

Chen An tugged at the corners of his mouth, his long sideburns were blown up by the wind, and his eyes revealed emotions that Marisa couldn't understand and know.

"Life is such a thing, if you just live it, it's very tiring.

If you don't have expectations, you don't have goals, it's just empty time. ”

In the past thousands of years, Chen An's life has been like that.

That kind of life, empty and hopeless!

Chen An said, suddenly taking a deep breath and smiling at Marisa.

The smile shone like light in the darkness that Marisa couldn't help but squint.

"So, if you don't want to live like a walking corpse, it's better not to know everything.

A stupid person will always live a happier life than a wise person. ”

Marisa turned her face sideways, as if she didn't understand.

"Although I didn't understand what you suddenly sighed, I always felt that what you just said was making excuses for yourself often pretending to be stupid."

Chen An was stunned, and his pace of progress froze for a moment. He laughed heartily.

"Yes, yes, I'm really making excuses for playing stupid all the time.

I thought it was hidden very deeply, but I didn't expect it to be seen by you in black and white, it's really amazing! ”

Marisa smugly wiped her nose with her thumb.

"That's right, you don't look at who Marisa I am, you want to fool me, and there is no door."

Chen An had a smile in his eyes.

"Yes, yes, smart black and white, it's really impressive."

"That's ...... That's weird! ”

Marisa, who was originally happy because of Chen An's rare compliment, suddenly reacted and immediately fell angrily.

"It's all said, don't call the old lady black and white! The old lady is just dressed in black and white! ”

Seeing Marisa's reaction, Chen An couldn't help but let out another hearty laugh.

He didn't continue to tease Marisa, but stopped, and rushed not far away, he was carrying a medicine on his back, hiding at the entrance of the roadside alley, with two cute rabbit ears that were swinging, and Suzusen, who was eavesdropping on him and Marisa, was sneaking around her, his eyes kept rolling, and at a glance, he beckoned the emperor who made people understand what the hell was going on in his heart.

"Hey, Reizen. Don't hide, I've seen you.

And that fat rabbit, don't think about it. Even if you turn into a rabbit and jump over, I can find you. ”

"Nani!? Dare to call the old lady fat rabbit again, are you tired of this guy?

Tell the old lady, where is the old lady fat!? Where is the old lady fat!? ”

The emperor's black eyes flickered, and he suddenly jumped like thunder.

With two long ears standing straight, she walked towards Chen An menacingly.

Obviously, he came to trouble Chen An.

Chen An looked up and down at the emperor who walked over with his chest up, and his eyes suddenly turned into a look of pity.

Here's what he said:

"You're fat except your boobs and ass!"

The emperor's vigorous walking movements stiffened, and he almost didn't crook his feet.

After thinking about it carefully, she almost made Chen An angry to death!

Except for her breasts and ass, she is fat - this girl is mocking her, right? Definitely mocking her, right?

Are you mocking her that even if she becomes a fat bunny, it is impossible to make her breasts and ass bigger!?

As soon as the emperor thought of this, he immediately felt that the top of his head was going to be smoked by Chen Anqi!

She didn't walk slowly, but was furious, and pounced on Chen An with her teeth and claws.

"How dare you mock the old lady so much, and give the old lady to die!"

"Die at every turn, it's really worthy of being a fat rabbit, it's really fierce."

Chen An sighed slightly, and after making the emperor who was already thunderous become more and more violent, he stretched out his hand and accurately pressed the emperor's fleshy face.

The emperor shook his arms wildly and shouted vigorously:

"Die! Die! Die! ”

Chen An's arms are longer than the emperor, and there are many of them. So even if the emperor turned his two arms into windmills, and raised his feet from time to time to kick, she just couldn't beat Chen An.

Chen An looked at the emperor with a smile, and his other free hand continued to wave at Lingxian, who was still rubbing there and didn't come.

"Lingxian, what are you still doing there, why don't you come over quickly."

"Huh? Oh. ”

Lingxian answered twice, and then rubbed in place for a while, and then slowly walked over.

Ling Xian came to Chen An's side, and her pretty face was a little red. The two long ears on her head were still cutely entangled, her eyes flashed, and she stammered:

"First, let's talk about it, I wasn't eavesdropping on you and Marisa just now, it's just, I just stopped there."

"Hey, hey."

Chen An knew that Lingxian was thin-skinned and not very teasing. In addition, there is a fat rabbit in front of him to bully, so it is rare not to tease the soft rabbit - such as pinching her face, pinching her ears, and then watching her blushing and puffing up her seductive appearance.

He answered with a smile and asked:

"By the way, what are you doing with the emperor, are you here to sell medicine again?"

Ling Xian secretly glanced at Chen An, and seeing that he didn't seem to have any unusual expression, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he knew that Chen An wouldn't care, it was still very embarrassing to be caught eavesdropping.

Lingxian was glad in her heart, and unconsciously patted her chest, and the two tangled rabbit ears shook happily.

She blushed slightly, lowered her head and didn't look directly into Chen An's eyes, looking shy.

"No, I'm here to buy medicinal herbs for the master today.

During this time, the master craftsman's experiment reached an important juncture, and he used a lot of medicinal materials, so he ordered me to buy them. ”

Chen An suddenly pointed to a rabbit who was still trying to do useless work and wanted to beat him.

"And what about this fat rabbit who is fat except for her breasts and buttocks, what is she here for? Do you simply come to the people to see if there is anyone who can play pranks? ”

Emperor: "......"

She stiffened, gritted her teeth, and danced her arms faster.

Reizen couldn't help but laugh, as if he had endured it hard, and his ears and shoulders trembled.

She was still the same shy answer with a red face and a bowed head, and her voice was still so small.

"Emperor...... The emperor is not so excessive. She just felt bored in the bamboo forest today, so she came to play with me. ”

"It's really rare to be so well-behaved."

Chen An raised his eyebrows in surprise, looked back at the emperor who was still stubbornly stupid, waving his arm and wanting to beat him, sighed, and let go of his hand to let the emperor call.

"Forget it, for the sake of your rare obedience, this time I will fulfill your wishes."

"Satisfying your sister, are you giving alms?!"

After the emperor punched Chen An fiercely, seeing that he didn't react at all, he suddenly jumped away.

She pinched her waist with one hand, broke off one ear, aimed at Chen An like an arrow, and scolded.

"Who do you think the old lady is? Will you accept your handouts?

No kidding! Tell you, you let the old lady fight, but the old lady doesn't fight! you off! ”

"Hey, I've said it, the word old lady is very inappropriate for you. And I'm not charity. ”

Chen An sighed a little helplessly, and then conjured a watery carrot and handed it to the emperor.

"Seeing that you are so angry, please eat a crispy and delicious carrot to dissipate your anger."

The emperor looked at the carrot, felt that he had been greatly insulted, his face turned red, the rabbit's ears shook rapidly, and he was furious:

"A carrot wants the old lady to put out the fire, do you think the old lady is so easy to buy? Tell you, at least two! ”

Reisen and Marisa didn't expect the emperor to have such a big contrast in words, and they couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Marisa waved her hand.

"Rabbit, aren't both one carrot and two carrots just as cheap? If you don't believe me, I'll give you a few copper plates, you can buy a few copper plates and try it, and you can buy a lot of copper plates. ”

The price of goods in the world is not expensive, and the currency is still the currency of hundreds of years ago. For turnips, it is not a problem to buy several copper plates.

"So, you're still too young to know the joy of life at all~

And...... Hmph, how can extorted carrots taste the same as bought carrots? ”

The emperor taught Marisa a few words in a respectful manner, and then stretched out his hand to Chen An, trying to keep his eyes open and make a fierce appearance.

"Hurry up, the old lady has changed her mind now, two is not enough, I want three!"

"Three!? You're too greedy, aren't you? ”

Chen An looked pained and tried to bargain.

"Emperor, you don't eat much, it's better to have two."

"Don't!"

The emperor decisively rejected Chen An, looked at Chen An obliquely, and stretched out his palm. Her palms shook in midair.

"I've changed my mind now, three is not enough, now I want five!"

Chen An was furious.

"Sit on the ground and start the price, you are blackmailing!"

The emperor's smile was like that of a child, innocent.

"That's right, I'm just sitting on the ground and blackmailing you.

How about it, don't give it or not, don't blame me for beating you with a weapon~"

The emperor clasped his hands weakly, made a swinging motion, and laughed more and more innocently.

"That's it, knock knock you down~"

"You're not only blackmailing, you're also threatening!"

Chen An said indignantly, and reluctantly conjured up a basket, which was neatly filled with watery carrots - nine!

In the emperor's surprised and angry gaze, Chen An fished three carrots from the basket, and then handed the basket to the emperor.

The emperor was red and scolded angrily.

"Bastard! That's my carrot! ”

"Hehe, it's mine."

Chen An raised his eyebrows proudly twice, then took a carrot and dangled it twice in front of the emperor, and then happily stuffed the carrot into his mouth under the emperor's fire-breathing gaze.

With a crisp click, the emperor clutched his chest, uh, and felt like his heart was about to break.

Her sweet and delicious carrots! It was actually eaten by Chen An, what a waste!!

Chen An casually handed another carrot to Marisa and let her eat and play, and then shook another carrot at Reisen with a grin.

"Lingxian, eat it or not, it's delicious."

"That...... This ......"

Reisen is not an emperor, he is a rabbit monster on the ground, but a moon rabbit coming down from the moon, and he doesn't like to eat carrots so much.

But looking at Chen An's smile and the appearance of tempting people to commit crimes, she suddenly hesitated in her heart.

That, that was Chen An's kindness, and he refused...... Not quite right?

Ling Xian hesitated for a moment, made an excuse for herself, and took the carrot in Chen An's hand with peace of mind—the one that had been bitten!

Seeing Chen An's surprised appearance, Ling Xian's eyes rolled in a panic, and he took a small step back, and quickly explained in the emperor's disdainful gaze.

"Don't, don't get me wrong. I'm just, I just don't think I can eat so much, too much, and I'm afraid that if I eat less, I'll waste it. That's why it's the only way to take the small one. ……”

In the end, Reizen's voice was too small to be heard

I always feel that my excuse is very lame.

Reizen hung her ears, her face flushed, and she couldn't help but complain about herself.

Really, how could he suddenly lose control of himself and bring the carrots that Chen An had eaten, what a shame!

"That's ......"

Chen An suddenly snatched back Ling Xian's hand with a hammer.

In Reizen's cute expression with wide-eyed eyes, he took a big bite of the carrot hard, and then returned the leftover carrot to Reisen with a smile.

"I just took a small bite, but it's actually the same as the original, and now you don't have to worry about not being able to finish it.

Hehe, the emperor is right, the things he snatched are indeed more delicious. ”

"Bastard! What you robbed was my mother's!! ”

Ling Xian looked at Chen An's smiling face as if she was stunned and her eyes widened slightly, and strangely, she felt that her flustered mood had suddenly calmed down.

Reisen stared down at the carrot with tooth marks and a small half missing.

It's strange, it's just normal...... No, it should be very rude, why do you suddenly feel warm in your heart?

Ling Xian tilted her head and thought in confusion, so she suddenly took a bite of the carrot, and then smiled brightly at Chen An.

Well, he's right, it's delicious.

It's crunchy and sweet, and it seems like there's something more intoxicating.

Reizen thought so in his heart, and the smile on his face unconsciously became sweeter and sweeter.

……

After chatting with Reisen and Emperor again, Chen An and Marisa said goodbye to them and continued to go to the Fog and Rain Prop Shop.

This time there was no further encounter, so the two quickly arrived at their destination.

Chen An strangled his arm at the door and suddenly became rubbing, and Marisa, who refused to go in, walked into the store and smiled and greeted the settling father at the counter.

"Yo. Store Manager Foggy Rain, I've come to see you with Black and White. ”

"The manager of the foggy rain store...... The voice ......"

Daddy Wuyu paused, and then stopped settling accounts. He raised his head, habitually lifted his glasses, and looked at Chen An and Marisa, who were affectionately hooking up their shoulders, and couldn't help frowning.

"Chen An, why are you still with Marisa? Will it be ......"

It's not questioning, it's concerning.

Because of Marisa's presence, the second half of whether Daddy Fog and Rain would not be suitable was not spoken.

Chen An is not stupid. Naturally, I heard what Daddy Wuyu didn't say.

Is it uncomfortable?

He was silent, then shrugged his shoulders as if nothing happened, looking helpless.

"No way, who made me a good friend of black and white.

It's been two years, Gensokyo has changed so much, she has lost her memory, and I should take her around to get acquainted. ”

Chen An said this, and sighed with a long sigh of complaint.

"Actually, today I plan to stay in the Red Devil Pavilion to sleep, and let Black and White come by himself.

But the black and white were so pestering that they grabbed me from the bed. Alas, there is really nothing to do with her. ”

Marisa angrily slapped Chen An with her hand.

"It's all said, don't call the old lady black and white!"

Chen An sighed even more.

"Look, look. Not only is it pestering, but his temper is so short-tempered, and he doesn't know if he can marry black and white in the future. ”

Chen An said in pain:

"It's so sad to think that I, Chen An, am famous, and I will be carried on this poor worm who is destined to be single for a lifetime and no one wants her, and I will become good friends with her!"

Marisa: "......"

She promises! If it weren't for the presence of Daddy Wuyu, she would have been able to take out the gossip furnace and kill Chen An on the spot!

But due to the presence of Daddy Misty Rain, Marisa had to swallow this evil breath for the time being.

"You wait for the old lady!"

Marisa viciously said a cruel word in Chen An's ear, and she didn't want to stay here to be angry with Chen An, so she ran away under the beckoning of her mother who came out from behind.

"This kid ...... It's really not presentable. ”

Daddy Wuyu didn't care about Chen An's ridicule of Marisa at all, but shook his head and said Marisa.

He sighed softly, then picked up the kettle and cup on the counter and poured two glasses of water on the counter.

Father Wuyu beckoned to Chen An, motioned for him to come over and drink water, and said at the same time:

"I'm a little angry at first, but seeing Marisa like this, the old man finally understands why you did that."

Marisa often returned to the Kiriyu house some time ago.

Although he always pretends to be cheerful and casual at those times, as parents, Daddy Misty Rain and Marisa's mother have long noticed Marisa's abnormality.

At first, it was unclear why Marisa had become so forceful and smiling, but then, Chen An suddenly came to the door and said it all.

At that time, if it weren't for his calm personality and the persuasion of Marisa's mother, Daddy Wuyu almost didn't beat Chen An out with a stick.

handed over his beloved daughter to Chen An, but Chen An finally gave him such a result, he didn't kill Chen An, he was good-tempered!

But it was like this at first, but now Daddy Fog and Rain has been thinking about it for a few days, and when he looks at Marisa just now, he doesn't think like that anymore.

He looked at Chen An, who was drinking water silently, lowered his head, and couldn't help but sigh again.

"Marisha's kid is still so stubborn, if only she could be a little more flexible.

That child, why don't you understand that compared to people, a little persistence is not necessary at all?

For the sake of such unnecessary persistence, why bother to become like this? ”

Chen An tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled, but instead comforted Daddy Wuyu.

"Growing up in a dangerous place like the Enchanted Forest, it's normal for Marisa to be stubborn.

As long as Marisa can be happy, Manager Kiriyu, why do we force her so much? ”

Father Wuyu hated iron and couldn't make steel, and looked at Chen An.

"You, you just spoil that girl too much.

If only you had been able to take Marisa back and imprison her for a few days and teach her a few more lessons, she would probably be honest by now. ”

Chen An smiled dumbly.

"Store Manager Wuyu, if I didn't know that you were for my good, I would really think that you were trying to encourage me to commit domestic violence.

According to you, Marisa really didn't suspect that she was wrong, are you really her own father? ”

"What a stupid thing, the old man is not her father, you are still you! My daughter doesn't make people worry, what's wrong with cleaning her up a few times? ”

Daddy Foggy Rain blew his beard and glared for a long time, and then sighed again.

"Manager Wuyu, this title comes out of your mouth, it really makes the old man feel ...... Strange. ”

Chen An tilted his head and smiled very easily.

"There's no way, Marisa and I are friends now, so you can't continue to call your father-in-law, the manager of the Fog Rain, right?

If I dare to shout like that, I'm not sure Marisa will beat me to death with her broken stove. ”

"How dare she!?"

"Does she dare not?"

Father Wuyu began to blow his beard and stare again, but seeing Chen An's smiling appearance, he suddenly became decadent.

Daddy Wuyu waved his hand helplessly.

"You're right, with that girl's lawless character, there's really nothing you don't dare to do.

If it really makes her unhappy, it is estimated that even if the old man is here, she will dare to beat you ruthlessly. ”

Chen An took a sip of tea, as if he had thought of something interesting, and suddenly chuckled.

"So, I was worried about Marisa's future.

In the past, I stupidly jumped into the pit by myself, but there may not be a fool like me in the future~"

Daddy Foggy and Rain was full of sadness.

"Yes, I finally caught you, the stupid boy I bumped into, and I may not have such a good opportunity in the future~"

“……”

Chen An and Father Wuyu looked at each other in astonishment, and suddenly they both laughed.

"It seems that not only me, but also the manager of the foggy rain store, you think so!"

The two laughed for a while, and talked about some other topics, and Chen An was about to leave.

"Alright, Marisa has arrived home, so I'll take my leave."

"Huh? Why don't you stay and sit for lunch? ”

Chen An smiled and refused.

"No, I still have a friend among the people, and I'm going to go see her, so I won't bother the store manager Wuyu and your family reunion."

He nodded, and turned to walk in the direction of the door.

"Wait!"

Father Wuyu suddenly stopped Chen An.

"Huh? Manager Kiriyu, do you have anything else? ”

Father Wuyu helped his glasses and looked at Chen An with a serious expression.

"It's nothing, the old man just wants to tell you: Marisa is a girl who likes inches, so it's best not to spoil Marisa too much in the future.

More importantly, don't push yourself too hard, if you feel unhappy, then don't agree to the girl's non-specific request, just do what you feel happy.

Even if you don't meet that girl again because of this, the old man won't blame you.

At last...... I've worked hard for you these past few days. ”

In the end, Daddy Wuyu nodded slightly, his eyes full of sincerity and understanding.

"Ahh Manager Wuyu, you can rest assured. ”

Chen An replied noncommittally, then hummed a little song and strode out of the foggy rain prop shop.

"Really...... It's weird to let go of it. ”

Father Wuyu shook his head, then lowered his head and continued to count the unfinished accounts before.

……
