Fireworks Festival
Because the 'Hot City Fireworks Festival' is coming, the 'Yao Mei Mansion' will no longer distribute tasks in recent days, and Boss Yao has given everyone a holiday, after all, the fireworks festival is an extremely important day for every Hot City person.
At the same time, the museum is closed for a few days, and Boss Yao can also concentrate on preparing the things needed for the fireworks festival, and accompany his family and children by the way.
When every household hung fireworks decorations in front of the door, all the members of the Zhiyong Regiment were not to be outdone, and arranged the inside and outside of the house with the theme of fireworks.
After Taslo and Li Wan'er cleaned the room, they put on the fireworks-shaped objects they bought from the stall last night, replaced them with curtains with fireworks patterns, and simply finished with a few clicks.
Li Wan'er always felt that the room was too simple, so she ran to Gran's room, and wanted to learn from it, but she pounced: "Gran, in addition to the fireworks elements, there are also various styles in your room, although each element is very chic, I know you want to add icing on the cake, but I think you are a little self-defeating." ”
"Go check out Jiric and the captain's room, it's not much better than me."
Gran worked hard and couldn't listen to Li Wan'er's words at all.
Li Wan'er pouted and left.
She was lying at the door of the captain's room, and the two people in the room were in a hurry, messing around, which made Li Wan'er laugh, and said: "It's really 'a mountain is higher than a mountain', your room is more fancy than Gran's room." ”
"We'll talk about it when we're done, you get out."
Marsham closed the door without hesitation, and then Malsham's shout came from inside: "Jirek, I said don't do this, you want it, you see that we are all 'disliked' by Wan'er, you see what this thing is not red and purple." ”
"Hey, hey, wife, you have to be reasonable, this is what you asked me to buy last night, and there is also the curtain on the bed, blue is not blue, green or green, it doesn't match the style I made at all, you look at that pile of things, it's a waste of money."
"I said one sentence and you beat me three times, and you reasoned with me!? Are you owed?!!! ”
......
Li Wan'er covered her face a little helplessly, so she slipped away, thinking that these two mouths were really arguing feelings.
A burst of floral fragrance wafted out of Ruozhu's room, Li Wan'er was fascinated by the fragrance, wanted to go to see his room, just started, Xiao Lei and Xiao Xiao ran out, Xiao Lei turned around and stuck out his tongue at Xiao Xiao, didn't look at the road, accidentally bumped into her arms, and then got out of her arms with a hippie smile.
"Xiao Lei, slow down, don't fall!"
She turned her head to remind the reckless Xiao Lei, and when she turned back, she saw Feng Ziliu sitting on the first floor, drinking tea alone.
"Fengziliu, are your rooms all arranged?"
Fengzi looked over to the second floor, saw Li Wan'er propped up on the guardrail, smiled and said, "I don't want to make a 'mess' of the room, I think the simpler the better." ”
"Well, after all, it's quite tiring to toss all morning, what kind of tea are you making? It smells sweet and fragrant, can I come down and taste it with you? ”
"Of course."
As soon as Li Wan'er came to the stairs, Taslo's voice came from the room, and she wanted to ignore him, but she didn't expect Taslo to scream a few times, and she had to agree.
He smiled embarrassedly at Feng Ziliu and went back to the room, Feng Ziliu was silent, put the teacup back in its place, and watched the birds picking up the debris outside the door.
......
"Taslo, what are you looking for me?"
"Wan'er, look, the market is so lively, let's go out for a walk, I want to see what is new."
Outside the window, there was a sea of people, so lively, every booth was crowded, and the faces of children and adults were full of joy......
Seeing this, Li Wan'er became interested all of a sudden: "Okay, then I'll change my clothes and go out again, it just so happens that I bought you new clothes." ”
They changed into couple's outfits, and as soon as they opened the door, they were bumped into by the Malshams.
The captain looked at Li Wan'er's blushing face and quipped: "Tut-tut, this is a naked show of affection!" ”
Taslo rolled his eyes at them and pulled Li Wan'er downstairs, but met Xiao Lei at the door again.
"Sister Wan'er, I want to go too!"
"Then come with us."
Li Wan'er took his little hand and walked out the door, Taslo whispered, thinking that Xiaolei was a light bulb.
"Sister Wan'er, people want to go too." Gran pinched his throat and began to speak.
Li Wan'er smiled, and then stretched out her other hand to Gran: "Okay, let's go." ”
Gran deliberately squeezed Taslow behind him and gave him a roll of the eye.
Taslo wanted to snatch Li Wan'er's hand back, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was the clothes that caused the trouble, and he instantly became happy from his reluctance just now, because he knew that he and Li Wan'er showed off Gran, a single dog.
......
On the streets, passers-by come and go, people are full of voices, and everyone else has to shout and talk.
Xiao Lei ran in the wind with the windmill that Li Wan'er bought for him, and Xiao Xiao jumped after him, causing everyone to turn back frequently.
Li Wan'er: "Xiao Lei, slow down, don't get lost!" ”
Gran: "Don't worry, the children nowadays are smarter than the other, and I am afraid that the adults will not lose the children." ”
"yes, hahahaha......"
Although Gran said so, just in case, Li Wan'er still pulled Xiao Lei back.
"Xiao Lei, you hold Taslo's brother's hand and don't let go, if you don't obey, I won't take you out to play next time, you know?"
Li Wan'er put Xiao Lei's hand in Taslo's hand.
"Knowing Sister Wan'er, I will hold my brother well, lest he be squeezed out." Xiao Lei shook the windmill in his hand and said casually.
"Uh...... Whatever you want to understand, hahaha. ”
Then she looked at Taslo and said, "Taslo, don't let go of his hand." ”
Li Wan'er and Gran walked in front arm-in-arm, Taslo took Xiao Lei's hand and walked behind, Xiaoxiao was on Taslow's neck and refused to come down, Xiaoxiao had recently grown some meat, but fortunately Taslo did not drive it down.
Several people passed by a snack stall, Xiao Lei was a child after all, so he was naturally attracted and forcibly pulled Taslo away.
"Brother Taslow, I want this Candy Bear."
Li Wan'er and Gran were talking and laughing, but they didn't notice them at all, and gradually blended into the crowd.
"If you don't buy it, you will get tooth decay if you eat it, and if you eat less, you won't grow your body."
Taslo looked forward, and he could still see their heads, but he was in a hurry.
"If you don't buy it, I won't leave!"
Xiao Lei pretended to cry and sat on the ground and played a trick.
Passers-by would definitely look at Taslo, who had no choice but to pay for Candy Bear, and by the time he looked back again, Li Wan'er and Gran had disappeared.
"It's all your fault for what kind of candy you want to eat, we got separated from Sister Wan'er and Sister Gran."
Xiao Lei licked a mouthful of candy and said: "It's all adults, it's time to learn to be independent, and besides, it's not that you don't know the way, let's go, it's okay for two men to go shopping." ”
"You little kid, what kind of adult are you?? Forget it, I don't remember villains, today is obviously my date with Wan'er, and it was all disturbed by you and Gran. ”
"You've been married until now, and you've slept in the same bed for so many nights, isn't that enough? Besides, you guys will get tired of the world of two people every day, so we're here to help you, understand? ”
"You ......"
Taslo was dumbfounded by the little ghost of Little Thunder, and patted his forehead, feeling that his IQ was not enough.
Their conversation drew a burst of laughter from passers-by.
......
"Huh?? What about Taslo and Ray? Li Wan'er didn't see the two of them when she turned around, and asked about Gran.
Gran: "Who knows, let's go ahead and have a look, I've just heard from passers-by that there's a big 'fireworks festival' store in front of you, maybe we'll see something good, why don't we go and have a look?" ”
"Then let's go."
In the store, there is everything shouting.
Li Wan'er and Gran were completely carried away by the crowd: "This is too crowded." ”
"Let's go there and hide for a while, and then come back when the wait is less." Gran pointed somewhere.
in the corner.
"I almost couldn't breathe." Li Wan'er gasped.
As soon as the demon wind blew, Gran's eyes went dark, and she suddenly peeled off the things on her face, which turned out to be a black flyer.
Li Wan'er: "What is written on it?" ”
Gran glanced at it, knew the general content, crumpled it up and wanted to throw it away: "The new store is open, there is no popularity, seeing that there are many people today, the boss relies on flyers to attract business." ”
Li Wan'er: "It's not popular, it's just that there are few people to go, let's wait and wait, it's better to go to that store and have a look." ”
Gran reopened the leaflet, ripped off the address, threw away the excess, and was guided by passers-by to a remote alley.
"No wonder no one, 'the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys', open in this inconspicuous corner, how many people can notice?"
"Alright, let's go inside."
The alleys are long and narrow.
Strangely, only the one at the end was open, and the rest had either moved out or closed.
The two finally ended the long journey and stood at the door of the store, no one greeted them.
Walking into the store, it was dilapidated, with moss on the walls, and it was eerie and overwhelming.
When the two were about to leave, footsteps sounded in the inner room, and the footsteps were a little heavy.
A gray-haired old man lifted the door curtain: "Both, please follow me to the back room." ”
Li Wan'er and Gran were embarrassed to refuse the old man, so they followed him.
Li Wan'er frowned and asked, "Uncle, have I seen you somewhere?" ”
The old man touched his beard and said, "Hehehe, when people are old, they all have wrinkled faces, so naturally you will think that I am familiar." ”
It was a long, narrow alley again, and the lights flickered on and off, and Gran was a little frightened.
The old man faltered, and the alley seemed to have no end.
"I'll tell a story to the two girls, and if I don't tell it well, I'll think the old man made it up."
Li Wan'er smiled politely: "Please speak." ”
Seeing the fireworks ornaments on Li Wan'er's head, he smiled: "Since tomorrow is the 'Fireworks Festival', then old man, let me tell you a story about the 'Hot City Fireworks Festival'." ”
The light from the kerosene lamp in the old man's hand was a little dimmer than before.
"The night before the start of the 'fireworks festival', it is also the heaviest night of the year, and those who are weak in yang must not go out to hang out that night, even if there is an emergency, they must be accompanied by a strong man, it is said that no one who does not believe in evil can survive for a week. I remember the afternoon before the 'fireworks festival' one year, when I was fifteen years old and I was helping my brother out of the city on an errand, I missed the time on the way because of some things, and when I returned to the city, it was already dark. On the way home, I had to pass through many long old alleys, and unfortunately, the lights in the alleys were broken that day, but fortunately there was moonlight to illuminate the front, otherwise I would definitely break my legs, looking at the elongated shadow behind me was a little crazy, I swallowed my saliva and hesitated for a while before going in. What makes me feel strange is that the alley, which usually few people come to, was more crowded that night, and the alley was originally narrow, and a dozen people seemed very crowded in the alley. I looked at their clothes, and thought for a long time before I realized that these people were wearing clothes that were popular half a century ago, and it was strange that they were all young people in their early twenties, and I wondered how they could wear these clothes, even if they were retro, not everyone was retro, as if they had made an appointment, but they didn't know each other. The strangest thing is that it is clear that it is not raining, but someone has raised an umbrella. ”
Gran hugged Li Wan'er's arm tightly, her whole body trembled, and the alley was already dark, looking back, it became more and more terrifying.
The old man didn't care about Gran's reaction, and continued to say to himself: "A dozen umbrellas and a woman in red passed by me, it was very fragrant, I couldn't help but look back, it doesn't matter if I don't look at it, this look almost cost me half my life." It turned out that the woman's red dress was stained red with blood, and everywhere she passed, there were bloody footprints, half of her head was gone, and then looked at the other people with umbrellas, all of them were bloody and blurred. I didn't dare to scream, for fear that the woman would turn around and catch me, so I ran as hard as I could, and when I passed through the bodies of those people, I held back my tears and passed through one alley after another. Finally, there was one last alley left from home, and I could see my family immediately after running in one go, but I hesitated to stop, because the alley was dark from beginning to end, but it was brightly lit at the end. Finally, the strong desire to go home overcame my fear, and I mustered up the courage to run as hard as I could, and I closed my eyes and kept shouting, 'Brother save me', but fortunately, my brother heard my cry and ran to me with the lamp. When I got home, I told my brother everything that had happened, and my brother instantly lost his color, his face was as pale as if he had been powdered, and before I had time to relax, he pulled me to the most famous shrine maiden house in the neighborhood for help, at that time I had a fever, and coughed wildly, and even coughed up blood, and my body began to become transparent as time passed. The witch didn't want to care about me, because she was afraid of causing disaster, but fortunately, my brother knelt down and kept kowtowing, until she broke her head, the witch agreed, and she used all her strength to cast a spell on me, forcing the 'poisonous gas' in the body out, and later learned from the witch's mouth that because I was heavy in yin, I not only saw something that shouldn't be seen, but also smelled a fragrance that shouldn't be smelled, so I was poisoned. Fortunately, my brother took me to see the shrine maiden and saved me in time, otherwise I wouldn't be alive now. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he blew out the lamp, and it was pitch black in front of him, and Gran and Li Wan'er shouted......
"I'm sorry to scare you."
With a 'click', the old man opened the door at the end of the alley, and the light instantly enveloped several people.
"Alas, I'm scared to death, uncle, can you tell us before you turn off the lights, it's too sudden, I almost died on the spot!" Gran was terrified but helpless.
"Gran, look, these things ......"
Li Wan'er's eyes widened, pointing to the treasures inside, unable to believe it.
Gran looked surprised: "Uncle, you have this good thing, you should have said it a long time ago!" ”
"I'm not physically handicapped, I can't move things to the store, and ...... is not allowed here."
In fact, there was only one leaflet, which was deliberately thrown in the store by the old man, just to find someone who was destined.
When the two came out of the alley, the bag was full of fireworks, but the old man told them to hide it.
It is also strange to say, there is a fireworks festival in the hot city but fireworks can not be sold, the fireworks seen at that time were released with the approval of the city lord, and the reason given is also very reluctant, saying that it is afraid that someone will hoard a large amount of gunpowder and carry out criminal activities, and it is said that there was a riot in the hot city ten years ago, and someone attacked the city lord with gunpowder that had been hoarded for several years......
