"Ahh

"Isn't that loud?" The young man smiled so much that his eyes were crooked into crescent moons, and Su Duo's face turned even redder, turning away and not speaking.

The boy looked at the mask in his hand a little confused, leaned over and asked, "I'm sorry, you're angry?" ”

Su Duo shook his head and still said softly, "No." ”

She glanced at the mask quietly, the black grimace drooped her mouth, and she looked a little aggrieved, Su Duo snorted and laughed, and the young man handed her the mask and asked, "Do you like it?" ”

Su Duo nodded subconsciously, the young man smiled and put a mask on her, Su Duo walked to the river, the river was not completely frozen, she could see her own reflection in the river, with an ugly black aggrieved face, even she couldn't help laughing.

"Sister!" Su Li's crisp voice came, Su Duo looked over, Su Li, who rushed over, was stunned by her sister, ran a few steps over, and saw the white-clothed young man standing next to him was stunned again, Su Duo hurriedly took off his mask and said, "Su Li." ”

Su Li ran over in a few steps and looked at the boy with full vigilance.

"Sister, who is he?" Su Li opened her arms and stopped in front of Su Duo, looking like a hen protecting her chicks, the young man couldn't help laughing, his eyes Yue Guo Su Li looked directly at Su Duo, and asked, "This is your sister?" ”

Su Duo nodded, pulled Su Li aside, and handed the mask back to the boy, but the boy didn't take it, and said, "Since you like it, I'll give it to you." ”

Su Duo hesitated, and Su Li glared at the young man, "Who are you?" ”

"Su Lixiu should be rude." Su Duo tugged at the corner of Su Li's clothes, "I just lost it with you, and this brother brought me to you." ”

Su Li glanced at the young man, then at Su Duo, and finally sighed, pulled Su Duo and walked to the inn.

Su Duo nodded towards the boy and said, "I'm sorry my sister is ignorant, thank you today." ”

The boy waved at her, warm as a spring breeze in this winter, "You're welcome." ”

Su Duo and Su Li returned to the inn, and Su Li smiled sheepishly: "Sister, that big brother is so good-looking!" ”

Su Duo glanced at her, "Then why are you so fierce to others?" I thought you hated him. ”

Su Li turned over and lay on the bed, blinking a pair of big black and white eyes, and muttered: "Brother Nian said that boys don't need to be so good-looking, they have a lot of strength, you see that brother is so thin, he definitely can't fight." ”

Su Duo cut her hair, didn't answer, just took the mask from the table, couldn't help but smile, Su Li was still babbling about what Brother Nian told her, Su Duo held her chin and looked at the blue sky outside the window, thinking that it would be good if she could see the young man next time.

Later, when her mother came back, Su Li took her mother to take them to eat wine and stuffed balls, but her mother said that she was going back, Su Li wanted to say something, and Su Duo stopped her.

She saw that there were still tears in the corners of her mother's eyes, and she whispered in Su Li's ear and said, "Listen to my mother, let's go home." ”

Su Li lost her temper all the way, and her mother didn't say anything along the way, and it was three months, they finally returned to the 80,000 Mountain, took off the beautiful and cumbersome thick jacket, and put on the previous patterned short coat, Su Li still played with the boys in the village, and Su Duo still helped her father and mother deal with the affairs of the family, but after that time back, the mother's smile was much less, Su Duo didn't dare to ask the mother, so she could only ask the father, but the father also kept silent, just locked up in the room silently.

After going to the capital once, her mother changed, Su Duo couldn't find the reason, she could only be more well-behaved, Su Li told her to go to the mountains to play, and she didn't dare to go anymore.

On their ninth birthday, their mother gave them a pair of beautiful silver earrings, Su Li took the earrings and ran out, and her mother stopped Su Duo and handed her a small bag.

"Su Duo, this is given to you by your father, there is a letter in it, you must read it."

The mother asked them to go to the cave in the mountain, and Su Duo asked why, but the mother did not say, only said that let them go first, and when they were hungry, they would find food by themselves, and then come back after three days.

Su Duo has always listened to her mother's words, even if she can't get a reason, she still obediently took Su Li to go, before leaving, her mother suddenly grabbed her hand, and said to her with tears in her eyes: "Su Duo, my mother knows that you are the most well-behaved, and you must take good care of Su Li in the future, Su Li She is noisy, you take care of her, if she doesn't listen, you don't let her go." ”

Su Duo realized what was going to happen, and a sense of foreboding swelled up in her heart, but she knew that even if she asked her mother, she wouldn't say anything, so she could only do it obediently.

When Su Duo took Su Li up the mountain, Su Li kept pestering her to ask why she went into the cave, and her father had told them that the cave was found by the people in the village to escape the massacre when there was a war in the past, and there was enough food and warm clothes in it, even if the ancestors were gone, the villagers would still send food and clothing into the cave in case of emergency.

Su Duo and Su Li stayed in the cave for three days and three nights, and on the fourth day, Su Li couldn't stay still, yelling to go back, Su Duo counted the days and three days passed, so he agreed to go down the mountain, but when he went down the mountain, he looked at the corpses that were all over the place, Su Duo couldn't believe his eyes, Su Li was stunned in place, looking at the dried blood on the ground, and asked Su Duo: "Sister, what's wrong?" ”

Su Duo didn't answer, but ran directly back to her house, she saw a few people standing there, standing in the front with a sword in their hands, the tip of the sword was still low blood, and her father and mother were kneeling on the ground, and her father was holding her mother, and her mother's hand was blowing softly on the ground, and she didn't move.

"Daddy! Mother! Su Duo ran over regardless of it, her father saw her running over, his eyes were filled with despair, the man turned around, Su Duo saw a hideous bronze mask, the black grimace before only made her feel ridiculous, but this mask made her feel terrified in her heart, she stopped in time and looked at the person wearing the mask in a daze.

The bag was put in Su Duo's personal pocket, and she subconsciously felt that it was a very important thing, and she must not let these people in front of her know it.

Su Li had already run over, and when she saw those people with knives and swords, she widened her eyes and looked at Su Duo in disbelief, "Sister, who are they?" ”

Sudo shook her head and took her hand.

They were in such a stalemate, the masked man walked over step by step with a sword, the cold eyes behind the mask made Su Duo's heart chill, she pulled Su Li behind her, obviously her body was trembling with fright, but she still tried to look directly at the person with the sword.

Walking in front of her, he suddenly smiled, and the eyes behind the mask melted into ice, which made Su Duo immediately remember.

It was a boy he met in the capital.

"Sister......" Su Li pulled Su Duo's sleeve, Su Duo nodded, trying to calm herself down, she looked up and asked, "Who are you?" Why kill the people in the stockade? ”

The boy crouched down and looked at them at eye level, "Because the people in the stockade are disobedient." ”

Su Duo stretched out his hand to take off his mask, but he stood up again, and with a wave of his wrist, his father, who was struggling to get up, suddenly fell down again, with a throwing knife stuck in his throat.

Su Duo watched his father fall down slowly with round eyes, tears gushing out, "Dad-"

She was about to run over with her legs, but the boy stopped her and slashed her in the neck with a knife, causing Su Duo to lose consciousness, and the moment she closed her eyes, she saw Su Li raise the dagger and stab the boy in the leg.

When Su Duo woke up, she saw Su Li, and she hurriedly sat up and went to probe Su Li's snort, until she felt the warm gas she spewed, and she exhaled.

She looked up and found that she was no longer in the village, there was a fragrance in the air, she remembered that the last time she went to the capital, her mother rubbed some red powdery things on her face, and it was also this kind of fragrance, and her mother said, it was rouge.

She got out of bed and was about to take a step, when the door suddenly opened, and in came a very beautiful sister, who was still holding a plate with several big steamed buns in her hand.

"Are you awake?" She walked over and touched her head, her hands were soft and warm, Su Duo remembered her mother's hands, and couldn't help but leave tears.

"My name is Ah Ci, you will call me Sister Ah Ci in the future, what is your name?"

Su Duo pursed her lips, wiped her tears, and said, "My name is Su Duo." ”

Ah Ci's good-looking brows frowned slightly, Su Duo looked at her suspiciously, and Ah Ci said, "Where are you from?" Listening to your accent, doesn't it look like a native of the Central Plains? ”

"I-" Su Duo hesitated for a moment, thought for a moment, and then said, "I'm from Southern Xinjiang. ”

"No wonder." Ah Ci touched her earlobe, and Su Duo noticed that the silver earrings on her ears had not been taken off.

"It's beautiful, but you still have to put it away, or let the old bustard take it away." Ah Ci pointed behind him, Su Duo didn't understand, and asked, "Who is the old bustard?" ”

Ah Ci pouted, "The biggest bad guy in the world." ”

Su Duo's eyes widened, "Where is this?" ”

Ah Ci had more sympathy in her eyes, she sighed and stroked Su Duo, and said, "This is a brothel." ”

Suddenly, as if remembering something, he asked, "Is there no brothel in your southern Xinjiang?" ”

Su Duo nodded ignorantly.

Ah Ci scratched his head, and seemed to be very embarrassed about how to explain the brothel to Su Duo, Su Duo took advantage of Ah Ci's scratching his ears and cheeks to think, took off the earrings, and walked to the side of the bed to take off Su Li's, and at the same time, he had already thought of a set of rhetoric in his heart on how to explain to others.

"A brothel is a place where there are a lot of women, and men come here to play with women, do you know what I mean?" Ah Ci thought for a long time before explaining to Su Duo with difficulty.

Su Duo still blinked his ignorant eyes, Ah Ci looked up to the sky and sighed, and finally gave up, "Anyway, you will understand in the future." ”
