Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Mask and the Oil-Paper Umbrella
Bai Luoying let out a chuckle, but did not speak, but handed the brewed tea to Su Ling.
Su Ling took it and took a sip, and a gentle magic power flowed into his physical strength, merging into Su Ling's body.
"Bai Luo, this flower tea is good, and your stomach is warm when you drink it." Su Ling put down the teacup and said.
Bai Luoying didn't make tea for herself, she said with a smile: "It's good if you're satisfied." ”
"Anyway, I heard that there is a cherry blossom tree in Sakura County that has lived for thousands of years, and I don't know if this is a rumor or a real thing, but if it is, I really want to see it." Su Ling said.
Bai Luoying's hand trembled imperceptibly, although the movement was very subtle, but it was discovered by Su Ling.
"Well, if you're talking about the one in the mountains behind the shrine, it should be true. And the shrine on our side is dedicated to this cherry tree, and my father is the deity here, so if you want to go to the shrine, I can take you there. Bai Luoying lowered her head and poured tea and said to Su Ling.
"By the way, I see the residents of Sakura County walking back and forth, it seems that there is still something posted, is there a festival here?" Su Ling continued to ask.
"Well, because the cherry blossoms in my hometown are blooming, a festival ceremony is held at this time of year to celebrate the cherry blossoms, and the location of the ceremony is in the front hall of the shrine, and my family members are all staff members in the shrine, so they must be busy there, so they are not at home." Bai Luoying said.
"I see." Su Ling nodded, "Bai Luo, can I go to the village by myself, I'm a little bored now." ”
"Of course, when everyone wakes up, I'll call you."
After Su Ling finished drinking tea, he left Bai Luoying's house and came to the village.
This time, there were no pedestrians to talk to, and they seemed to be very neutral to outsiders, neither repulsive nor welcoming.
Su Ling walked casually in the village, the concentration of magic power in the village was not low, if ordinary people had been under such magic power, even if they couldn't cultivate, their bodies would be stronger than others.
It's just that such a treasure land, is there really no so-called cultivator to discover it?
Su Ling pondered, he suddenly found that since he arrived in the village, he had not seen any outsiders, and it seemed that the only outsiders were those brought by Bai Luoying.
When he came to the entrance of the village, the bus stop sign was still there, but he still didn't see any outsiders.
"Is it a hint of magic or something? However, there are obviously a lot of business spaces in the village, so if you rely on your own people, won't you lose money? Thinking so, Su Ling came to a shop that sold umbrellas.
From the outside, it looks like it sells umbrellas, but when I came in, I found that it was selling oil-paper umbrellas, and they all seemed to be some handicrafts.
"Guest, would you like to buy an oil-paper umbrella?" The boss asked softly after sensing Su Ling's presence.
Su Ling wanted to refuse, but he suddenly remembered something, and asked instead, "Boss, do you have a red oil-paper umbrella?" ”
The boss thought for a moment and said: "Originally, there was no outside, but you asked, there is indeed a red oil-paper umbrella, it has been in my place for many years, no one has ever used it, it is said that it was left by the older generation, my grandfather they did not allow us juniors to make red, but kept one, saying that if someone asks, you can give this umbrella to the guest who wants to buy it." ”
"My father's generation, no one has ever talked about the red oil-paper umbrella, for decades, you are still the only one, since this is the case, then you must have a relationship with this umbrella, you wait for me, I will take it to you." The boss said, left the counter, took out a red oil-paper umbrella, and handed it to Su Ling.
Su Ling was stunned when he saw it, how could this oil-paper umbrella feel familiar, but now he couldn't think of it, even if he wanted to, he couldn't think about it here.
"By the way, boss, I don't think there are any foreign guests here, can you sell these oil-paper umbrellas? Sorry, I'm just a little curious. ”
"It's strange to say, generally no outsiders come to our village in the past few months, but my oil-paper umbrella will be transported to the county seat to sell, which is also a souvenir, and the guests don't have to worry too much." The boss said.
"Then thank you boss, and this red oil-paper umbrella, how much does it cost?"
"Since the ancestors have said it, of course you don't need money for this oil-paper umbrella, so you can take it as a guest."
Seeing that the boss insisted on this, Su Ling just nodded and left with the red oil-paper umbrella, but he didn't know that the boss sighed and said: "After all, this umbrella is not something that money can buy, if you are not qualified, you can't take this umbrella with you." ”
Su Ling walked a few steps, and not far away, there was another shop selling masks.
Su Ling walked in with an umbrella to check, the masks here are quite complete, and the workmanship is exquisite, and they are also handicrafts, if you sell them outside, I don't know how much you can sell them.
The further he went, Su Ling found several masks with magical powers, which made Su Ling a little surprised, and he looked at these masks carefully.
"Pretty good, right?" A soft female voice came from behind, and Su Ling turned her head, it was a girl about his age.
"These are my mom's best things, and I think they're all special and beautiful, but people say they're no different from other masks, and mom has the same price tag for them. I was afraid that they would be bought by someone who didn't know the goods, so I put them inside. The girl said.
"It's really beautiful, if the other masks are dead, these masks have more aura." Su Ling looked at the mask and said, the strokes outlined on these masks seem to bring the masks to life and lifelike, of course, there are also reasons for the magic power on the masks, but these magic powers are hidden, not revealed, so ordinary people just regard these as exquisite handicrafts, nothing more.
"You're talking too much, and if you buy these masks, you won't let them dust. You must have come to buy a mask when you walked into this room, if you don't dislike it, I can pick one for you, what do you think? The girl said with some excitement.
Su Ling nodded, he was also very interested in the magic on the mask, and it was a good thing to buy one and go back to study it.
"Okay, that's it." The girl picked out a white fox mask, "This must look good on your face." ”
"Okay, that's it, how much does it cost?"
Su Ling bought a white fox mask, although it was not too cheap, but he didn't bargain, it was fate to meet him, and his identity seemed to be very rich.
Holding the white fox mask and the red oil-paper umbrella, Su Ling felt that he had gained a lot, and next, he would return to Bai Luoying's house first, and then prepare for the next move.
