31. Major General buys and buys fools
By the time we walked down the crowd to Main Street, it was getting darker, and the remaining afterglow of the sunset was fading away, but the Main Street was filled with more and more people.
This long street is a place to enjoy lanterns and charades, and there are vendors selling various items on both streets.
The streets under the dark are lit up, not the industrial LED lights that are often used now, and the lanterns hanging on both sides of the street are suitable for the occasion, although the wicks in them are not ancient candles, but the atmosphere is there.
Pedestrians carry small lanterns in their hands, as well as various snacks and masks.
Xie Li Xing may have never been to such a crowded place before, and has been pulling the corners of Xie Qingqiu's clothes, but the excitement and curiosity on his face can't be hidden.
Although Adjutant Ou looks old-fashioned on weekdays and is in charge of matters large and small in Qingqiu, in fact, he is not very old, less than thirty. She has seen a lot, but she has never seen such a scene.
After fully blending into this atmosphere, he also behaves like a child.
The three of them explained that Qingqiu's painting style was different, and she always had an indescribable sadness when she looked at such a scene.
"Sister, I want a rabbit." Xie Li tugged at the hem of her clothes and pointed to a stall selling masks next to her, which looked like they were made of light alloy.
The rabbit mask he was talking about hung in the middle of the masks, and to match the mask was a pair of long, white lop ears and a rabbit tail curled up in a ball.
She glanced at Xie Li, who was pulling the corner of her clothes, and her clear eyes reflected the lights of this long street, which was indeed quite cute, so she fulfilled his wish.
The handicrafts of the interstellar era are very expensive, but everyone is trying to make a lot of fun at the Liuyu Qushui Festival, and many people want to make a fortune from this, so even if it is exquisitely made, the price is not expensive.
Xie Qingqiu waved his hand, and the three of them bought a set.
Xie Li is the rabbit he wants, her own is a fox, and Adjutant Ou chooses a cow by herself, according to her own words, which is very in line with her hard-working image.
There are two hidden clasps on both sides of the mask, which can be worn tightly on the face so that it does not fall off easily, and a mechanism is made in the mouth so that the buyer can drink alcohol even without taking off the mask.
They also wore a set of ears and tails.
From this, one of the three people in the group can be seen is a male insect wearing a rabbit mask, hanging long ears, and a little snow-white on the tailbone; One is a female insect wearing a fox mask, two red ears on her head, and a large red furry tail behind her; There is also a female insect with a mask of an old ox and two curved horns on her head.
But the appearance of the three of them is not abrupt in this long street.
After leaving the mask stall, the three of them began to walk in the direction of the river where the wine lanterns were placed.
After walking a short distance, Xie Li was attracted by the others, and there were many people around the place, all half-bent over to look at a low stall, and before they could get close, they smelled a sweet and greasy sugar fragrance.
Xie Qingqiu frowned when he heard it, but Xie Li was even more excited, and he couldn't walk on his feet.
After squeezing her into the crowd, she realized that she was a candy painter, and there was amber maltose boiling in a small pot next to her, sticky and sweet.
The finished candy man is neatly placed in front of the stall, and all kinds of small animals are the most popular with male insects or cubs like him.
"What is this, sister." Xie Li stretched out his index finger and touched it in the air, and smashed it again.
"It's ......"
"It's painting candy man!" The busy vendor was about to answer, but Xie Qingqiu answered faster.
The vendor was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to know this, have you seen it before?" Now basically no one knows. ”
She was stunned for a moment, and now no one knew. Why did she always feel that this was extremely common, but when she searched for her memory, she didn't find half of the fragment related to it.
But in order not to add to the trouble, she nodded to the other party.
Xie Li asked for a rabbit and waited excitedly.
Xie Qingqiu was not in the mood to see it, so she simply glanced around with a pair of eyes, and after looking at it for a few seconds, suddenly a figure broke into her eyes.
It was a male worm, he was dressed in light blue clothes, with a white cat mask hanging from his waist, full of bookish air, and the corners of his eyes drooped slightly, revealing a bit of pity and innocence.
She keenly smelled a faint smell of blood on the other party.
He squeezed into the crowd with some difficulty, and then said to the vendors, "I'm sorry, can I be the Imperial Divine Bird?" ”
The vendor was a little hesitant and embarrassed when he heard this, perhaps because the Imperial Divine Bird was too complicated.
The male insect said a little anxiously: "You can have as many star coins as you want, my wife has never seen it, but she is sick and can't walk far, I want to bring it to her." ”
The vendor reluctantly agreed, and the male seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
During this period, Xie Qingqiu kept looking at him, not because of any messy male and female relationship, but because of that strange sense of familiarity, as if he had seen many faces in his previous life.
However, before she could think about it, the rabbit was ready, and he tugged at the corner of his coat again and gestured to pay.
After paying the star coins, the two of them were about to leave, and just as they were about to squeeze out of the crowd, she paused again, and looked at the male insect very inexplicably and inexplicably.
The gaze was naked and direct, and the other party immediately felt that he was looking at her, and was frightened to take a few steps back after discovering that it was a strange female worm.
Xie Qingqiu got closer, and said to him with a serious and serious look: "Go back from the main road, don't cut corners." ”
After saying this, she left without looking back, ignoring the other party's surprised eyes, but she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
In fact, she didn't know why she said that, for no reason, but she just felt that there should be such a sentence at this moment, and there should be such a reminder.
After squeezing out the crowd, Xie Qingqiu found that Xie Li seemed to be a little out of shape, holding the rabbit candy painting he had just made, but his head was slightly lowered.
She rubbed the other party's hair, "What's wrong, why are you unhappy?" ”
He shook his head, and only after a few seconds did he raise his head, looking at Xie Qingqiu as if there was really nothing in his eyes.
From this, she didn't care anymore, and the three of them headed towards the river where the wine lanterns were placed.
They walked casually and leisurely, buying non-stop along the way, and naturally they didn't notice that someone behind them was looking at them with thoughtful eyes.
The river is only one street away from the main street, and you reach the upper reaches of the river at the end of the street.
Xie Qingqiu felt that he had already smelled the aroma of wine mixed in the air.
