Chapter 51: The Begging Festival

"Master?" Aoi Fen'er stretched out her hand and shook it in front of him, "What are you looking at?" ”

Kwai Jingyue came back to her senses and shook her head, "It's nothing, I'm going to buy a candy man, give me some money." ”

Kwai Fan'er gave him a piece of broken silver, and was afraid that he didn't know how much this piece of broken silver was worth, so he told him that this small piece of broken silver could buy hundreds of sugar people, and he should not spend it indiscriminately.

"I see!" Kwai Jingyue responded perfunctorily, and ran away by herself, "Fan'er, you go back to the inn first, I'm going to go shopping by myself!" ”

"Master, be careful, don't be playful, come back early!" Kwai Fan'er instructed again, and smiled helplessly.

She bought some pastries from a shop and went back to the inn, thinking that if Kwai Jingyue came back hungry, the inn was busy, and the food was slow, he could eat some pastries to fill his stomach first.

But after waiting for a long time, Kwai Jingyue has not come back, and Kwai Fan'er can't help but be a little worried, afraid that he is lost or abducted.

She really felt that he was easily abducted, and that he would most likely only need a sugar man.

Waiting like this, she really didn't feel at ease, so she left the inn and looked for him everywhere.

"Master!" Kwai Fan'er looked around, "Master, where are you?" ”

She searched the four nearby streets, but still didn't see Aoi Jingyue's figure.

At this time, the sky has become dark, all kinds of lanterns have begun to be hung by the small river in the city, and there are many stall owners on both sides of the usually lively streets, and tonight will be very lively.

Kwai Fan'er stood by the river, looking at the endless stream of people around her, but she couldn't find where Kwai Jingyue was, and she couldn't help but panic.

As the sky gets darker and darker, the lanterns are lit up gradually, and there are more and more people by the river and on the streets, mostly young men and women, looking for the love of their hearts or having a tryst with the people they admire.

Kwai Fen'er had a feeling that she had been left alone, could it be that Kwai Jingyue was tired of her and abandoned her in this city.

As she thought about it, she panicked even more, she hadn't been abandoned, and she knew that the feeling would send chills all over her body.

Aoi was losing her mind, and someone walked in front of her, and when she bumped her lightly, she suddenly lost her center of gravity and fell into the river behind her.

At that moment, a hand grabbed her, and did not cause her to fall into the cold water.

She saw the face that looked like a demon, holding a candy man, with long black hair scattered and a bright red shirt like fire.

He held her hand in one hand and two sugar gourds in the other.

"Master?" Aoi called out to him in a daze.

Kwai Jingyue pulled her back from the river, helped her stand up, and handed her a sugar gourd in her hand, "Why did you come here, this is for you, it's delicious." ”

Kwai Fan'er took the sugar gourd, and the temperature of his palm was still vaguely still in his palm, "Master, didn't you say that you should go back to the inn earlier, why haven't you been back for so long, I was worried that you came out to look for you, and I searched all the four streets around, but I didn't find you, where did you go?" ”

"I'm lost." Kwai Jingyue replied honestly, "I walked too far, I forgot how to walk back to the inn, so I walked outside for a while." ”

Unexpectedly lost, Kwai Fan'er sighed with a headache, "I said that you should not be playful......"

"I also went to a place called a teahouse, and I heard people tell stories, and there is a drama garden, and there are singers," Kwai Jingyue told her with her fingers, "and the Qinglou ......"

"Wait!" The corner of Kwai Fan'er's eyes twitched, and she immediately interrupted him, "You also went to the Qinglou??" ”

Kwai Jingyue nodded innocently, "Well, but the girls inside are so strange, they always want to snatch my clothes as soon as I go in, so I'll leave." ”

Kwai Fan'er put her mind at ease, indeed, what looks like Kwai Jingyue must be the sweetheart in the eyes of those girls.

But that kind of place, he must not be allowed to go a second time in the future, so Kwai Fan'er told Kwai Jingyue in various ways that Qinglou is a very terrible place, very dangerous, and he must not go again.

Kwai Jingyue also nodded obediently and agreed.

As the sun sets, the night falls, and this Qiqiao Festival Lantern Festival can be regarded as the official opening.

It is said that there will be a fireworks festival tonight, and Aoi has never seen fireworks before, but she has heard that it will be a beautiful scene.

Walking on the street with Kwai Jingyue, between the crowd, Kwai Fan'er just wanted to look at him all the time, for fear that he would get lost and get lost.

He was like a curious baby, wandering between each stall, and from time to time he wanted to buy something interesting, and what Kwai had to do was to tell him in various ways that this thing could buy more than one candy man, so he thought about it for a while, and chose to keep the money to buy the sugar man.

Kwai Fan'er just followed him, but she didn't have anything she wanted to buy, but when she turned around, she couldn't help but stop in front of the stall selling lanterns.

She remembered that her mother had said that if you put down the lantern and make a wish, it will come true.

But no matter how many lanterns she put and how many times she made a wish, her mother still didn't get better.

It turns out that lanterns are just a way for people to place their good wishes, a beautiful fantasy, and lanterns will not come true.

But it's not a good thing to have such a beautiful thought.

Kwai Fan'er bought two lanterns and pulled Kwai Jingyue to the river, where many people were already putting lanterns into the river. Light up the lanterns, make a wish, and let them float away.

On the sparkling river, countless lanterns float, and the soft and bright light is reflected on the water surface, like a little starlight lighting up the galaxy and the sea, what a beautiful picture.

"Master, this is for you." Kwai Fan'er handed a lantern to Kwai Jingyue and told him how to let go of the lantern, "Remember not to be heard by others when you make a wish, otherwise it won't work." ”

Kwai Jingyue curiously held the lantern, followed Kwai Fan'er to the place where the lantern was placed, and as she said, lit the lantern, made a wish, and put it into the water to let it float away.

Perhaps she had made a wish, and with a gentle push of the edge of the lantern, it swirled and floated away.

"Master, what did you wish?" Kwai Fan'er smiled and looked at Kwai Jingyue's serious look, and couldn't help but ask him.

Kwai Jingyue snorted, "You said you can't say it, otherwise it won't work." ”

"Okay, okay." Aoi stood up, and a gust of wind blew the veil off her face, and it fell on the surface of the river, drifting away with the lanterns.

Kwai Fan'er immediately stretched out her hand to cover her face, she didn't want to show her ugly appearance in front of everyone, she didn't like any scrutiny, disgusted gaze.

Kwai Jingyue also got up, walked up to her, reached out and opened her hand covering her face, and then a warm thing was attached to her face.

Kwai Fen'er was stunned, she reached out and touched what Kwai Jingyue covered her face and touched it. It turned out to be a mask, but the metal material didn't have the cold temperature.

"It's ...... Mask? Aoi looked at him stunned.

Kwai Jingyue straightened her neckline and nodded seriously to her, "Yes, mask, don't you want others to see the scars, the veil is too easy to fall off, use this, it's not easy to break." ”

Reaching out and knocking twice, the mask made a crisp metallic sound, which is indeed not easy to break.

"When did you buy this?" Kwai Fen'er couldn't help but wonder, she didn't remember that he had visited a mask stall just now.

"When I came out of the medical hall, I saw a small stall across the street that sold masks, but none of them looked very sturdy, so I wanted to go to the blacksmith and make one." Kwai explained.

"Just for a moment? So fast? Aoi was surprised.

Kwai Jingyue shook her head again, "That old blacksmith happened to have several masks before, so I picked one of them." He replied honestly.
