Chapter 36: The Mask

When he walked out of the teahouse, Jian Xiaozhu only felt that it was a little cold outside. The night was dark, and there were fewer pedestrians. Jian Xiaozhu crossed his arms and took a breath of cool air: "It's not winter yet, why is it so cold, the temperature difference between day and night is really big." ”

Zhu Yan said: "Winter is coming soon. ”

Jian Xiaozhu nodded in agreement, and turned around, only to find that Zhu Yan had already walked into the crowd.

"Hey, where are you going?"

But Zhu Yan didn't look back and said, "You are waiting for me in the same place." ”

After saying that, he disappeared into the crowd.

Jian Xiaozhu only felt that Zhu Yan was inexplicable, she raised her hand, blew a few breaths into the palm of her hand, and kept rubbing her hands in place. When I looked up, I saw that the mask stall across the street had not yet closed. There were masks of different colors hanging on the mask stall, and Jian Xiaozhu saw that one of the demon masks with blue faces and fangs was the same as the mask worn by the general in the play.

Jian Xiaozhu walked to the mask stall, picked up the mask of the evil ghost and looked at it, only to see that this mask was not made of plastic like the mask she bought when she was a child. The mask is carved from a very thin piece of wood and painted with blue-gray and black pigments.

The stall owner of the mask stall saw that Jian Xiaozhu had been looking at this mask, so he said, "The girl wants to buy this mask?" ”

Jian Xiaozhu has always had the habit of buying the corresponding character's peripherals after watching movies or stage plays, although this general is a big villain in the play, but he is the protagonist anyway, and this mask is well made, so Jian Xiaozhu bought it.

If you walk home alone at night and wear this mask, it is estimated that the safety value will be off the charts!

Jian Xiaozhu happily put the mask on his face, but because he didn't look at the road for a while, he accidentally bumped into a person, and the mask in his hand also fell to the ground.

Jian Xiaozhu exclaimed, wanting to immediately pick up the mask that had fallen on the ground. However, the person on the other side picked up the mask first and handed it to Jian Xiaozhu. When the other party raised her head, Jian Xiaozhu only felt a gust of night breeze gently blowing in front of her eyes, and she forgot how to breathe for a while.

I saw that the man opposite seemed to be a person who came out of an ink painting, with clear eyebrows and handsome eyes, black hair flying in the night breeze, and white clothes gently agitated. His appearance is peerless, and his whole person is floating out of the dust, as if he is a celestial man in a fairyland.

Although Jian Xiaozhu had seen people like Su He and Qi Ren before, who were handsome and elegant, and had outstanding temperaments. It's just that compared with the person in front of him, Su He, the affectionate second male who has a good enough temperament, is also a little inferior. Jian Xiaozhu could only think in his heart for a while, with such an outstanding appearance, he probably is not an ordinary person.

However, Jian Xiaozhu didn't continue to think about it, but quickly took the mask handed over by the man in white opposite and said, "Thank you!" ”

When the man in white heard Jian Xiaozhu's words, he smiled lightly and asked, "Why did the girl buy this evil ghost's mask?" ”

Jian Xiaozhu only felt that the man's voice was extremely good, as ethereal and pleasant as a clear spring across the rocks in the mountains. Thinking that this person is really excellent everywhere, Jian Xiaozhu replied: "I just finished watching a play, and the general in the play also wears this mask, I walked out of the teahouse and saw the same model, so I bought it." ”

"But I remember that the general was a rebellious criminal in the play."

Jian Xiaozhu was surprised when she heard the man's words: "It turns out that you also watched a play in the teahouse just now?" ”

The man shook his head: "This play is not new today. ”

Jian Xiaozhu understood: "It turns out that you have seen it before." ”

The man's voice was soft: "Yes, it was a long time ago. ”

Jian Xiaozhu: "It seems that this drama is quite classic and enduring." But why do so many people watch it? I don't think there's anything to see about the plot. ”

Man: "Why do you think so?" ”

Jian Xiaozhu thought for a while, and then said, "Anyway, I don't like to watch tragedies." The general's wife in the play is too unlucky, and of course the general's entire family is unlucky. But it is really people who sit at home, and disaster comes from heaven. Especially since such a tragic thing has really happened, alas, anyway, I think it's too bloody to like it! ”

The man looked at Jian Xiaozhu and didn't speak. Jian Xiaozhu looked around and muttered, "What the hell is that guy doing, why hasn't he come back yet?" ”

"The girl is waiting for someone?"

"yes, I don't know if he will leave me first."

However, the man chuckled softly, "Don't worry, he will come." ”

With that, the man brushed his sleeves and left, gradually disappearing into the crowd. Jian Xiaozhu looked at his back, only to feel that his whole person didn't look like he was stained with any fireworks at all.

Just as the white clothes disappeared, suddenly, a thick piece of cloth covered Jian Xiaozhu's head, making her vision only black.

Jian Xiaozhu subconsciously shouted: "Help, there are traffickers!" ”

But I heard Zhu Yan's angry voice appear beside him: "Don't shout, it's me!" ”

Jian Xiaozhu took off the piece of cloth covering her head, and saw Zhu Yan who appeared beside her again. Jian Xiaozhu remembered the scene when she met Zhu Yan for the first time, and it was also a dark and windy night when someone stood behind her and said to her, "Don't move."

When Jian Xiaozhu thought of this, he felt that this person's appearance was always strange. And when Jian Xiaozhu saw the big flower cloth in his hand, he immediately looked at Zhu Yan with black lines on his face: "What are you doing with this?" ”

Zhu Yanbai glanced at her: "Didn't you say you were cold?" ”

Jian Xiaozhu looked at the large piece of thick fabric printed with red and green large flower patterns in his hand with a little surprise, although this piece of fabric was a little ugly, but thinking that Zhu Yan, the cannon fodder villain, would specially get her a piece of fabric to keep out the cold, so Jian Xiaozhu said with some emotion: "Thank you." However, this big flower pattern looks like my grandmother's big northeast flower jacket. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the fabric in his hand was snatched away by Zhu Yan, which made Jian Xiaozhu quickly explain: "I'm not saying it's not good-looking, it's just ......."

However, before the words were finished, in the next second, Jian Xiaozhu saw Zhu Yan shake off this thick piece of fabric and drape it behind her back.

"The clothing shop was closed, so I bought this cloth at the cloth house. Anyway, it's okay to keep out the cold. ”

Jian Xiaozhu felt that the thick fabric behind her seemed to exude a steady stream of warmth, so she clutched the fabric on her body tighter. Although along the way, this big flower cloth attracted a lot of attention, but Jian Xiaozhu didn't care much.

After all, people's eyes only fell on this piece of flower cloth for a second, and then fell on Zhu Yan's face.

Jian Xiaozhu looked at Zhu Yan's beautiful side face, which was even better than a woman, and then looked at the flower cloth behind him, thinking to himself How could this person's eyes be more straight than a straight man?

When passing by a candy man's stall, Jian Xiaozhu saw that the stall owner had two ugly sugar men left that had not been sold, so he had not closed the stall for a long time. So Jian Xiaozhu bought these two not very good-looking sugar people and handed one of them to Zhu Yan: "Send you!" ”

Zhu Yan's face was full of disgust: "It's ugly, don't." ”

Jian Xiaozhu: "I have accepted the fabric you bought for me to keep out the cold, this will be regarded as a gift to you, you can accept it quickly!" ”

But Zhu Yan remained unmoved. Jian Xiaozhu sighed: "This sugar man is ugly and cute, how cute!" Oh, by the way, I'll return this fabric to you after washing it at home! ”

Zhu Yan hurriedly took the sugar man: "Just give me this, don't give me that piece of cloth." ”

Jian Xiaozhu: "Why?" I'll wash it clean. ”

Zhu Yan coldly spit out a word: "Ugly!" ”

Jian Xiaozhu sighed in her heart, it seems that this person still has basic aesthetics......
