Chapter 13: The Blue-Haired Girl

Lu Ming didn't experiment with the effect of the spell last night, after all, if there was some movement, it would definitely attract a lot of attention in Nuoda's Star Luo City.

I originally wanted to get a good night's sleep, but I didn't expect to be woken up by the bustling sound outside early in the morning, and there were already many markets open on the streets of Xingluo City in the early morning to sell some items for the festival.

It looks quite prosperous, every house is lit up, adults and children are happy, and many families who are not wealthy will also eat a hearty meal on this day.

When I went downstairs, I saw that Old Man Lu was already standing on a stool with a lantern hanging at the door of the store, and there was a burst of fragrance in the kitchen.

During the day, Xingluo City is really not interesting, there is nothing interesting, but Old Man Lu likes this rare leisure, he doesn't have to open the door all day long, and arranges the decorations in the store with his grandson.

It wasn't until the sun went down and the night opened that the stage play finally began, and the lanterns on the street were lit one by one, with different shapes, and a little glimmer of light rose from the large and small corners of Xingluo City, whether it was the Duke's Palace in the east of the city or the slums in the south of the city, there was a little light to emerge.

If you want to say where is the most beautiful place in Xingluo City at this time, it is nothing more than the square when the martial soul was awakened before, like a bright star at night, and the colorful light depicts a beautiful picture.

"Slip sugar skewers, a string of copper soul coins"

"Fried dumplings, the most authentic fried dumplings in Xingluo City"

"Bracelet Necklace Ring"

......

There are small vendors in the square, there are lanterns hanging in front of the stalls, lined up in rows, around the square, in the center are beautiful lanterns, there is a stage next to the lanterns, several people are fighting on it, and next to it are a few juggling troupes, performing some tricks.

Lu Ming and Old Man Lu went out after eating early, carrying home-made lanterns and stuffing sweet dumplings in their mouths.

The square was already full of people, coming and going, just like some open-air shopping malls, and the smell of various snacks and shouts waded in the night sky.

Old man Lu bought a seat on the stage in the center early and watched with great interest as people fought their souls. Lu Ming doesn't have this hobby anymore, and he can't be interested in it at all.

Old man Lu muttered to Lu Ming while looking at it, saying that the winning rate was big, and he looked at the table with a gambling board in the distance, rubbed his hands several times, and remembered to come forward. Skimming Lu Ming again, I don't know what psychological struggle I went through, and finally gave up.

"What, don't like it?" Old man Lu found that Lu Ming was absent-minded, groggy as if he was asleep, and asked.

"I don't like it very much, it's just a fight, I don't see any meaning", Lu Ming muttered.

Old man Lu rubbed his hands, looked at Lu Ming and then at the fighting spirit on the field, and looked around left and right.

"Okay, let's do it, I'll give you some pocket money, you can play by yourself, remember to go home when the time comes, don't go to the river to play, don't go to a remote place by yourself, take care of your money......"

As he spoke, he took out a Silver Soul Coin from his pocket and gave Lu Ming a small bag to hold the money.

Lu Ming has been smart since he was a child, and he doesn't spend money very indiscriminately, he often saves the pocket money given by Old Man Lu, and looks at the money like Grande and snickers, so Old Man Lu is relieved to give him so much money.

"Thank you, grandpa, I will definitely go home on time, and I will pay attention to safety", Lu Ming hurriedly took the money and put it in his pocket, unable to hold back his happy mood.

Walking in the bustling crowd, Lu Ming felt the inconvenience of children for the first time, and the whole person was like walking in the woods, he couldn't see anything, and he could only see other people's chins when he looked up.

Lu Ming could only walk along the rows of vendors' stalls, and when he saw what was being sold, he squeezed around and went to a small stall selling meatloaf.

I saw a little girl with blue hair in a ponytail, standing on tiptoe and looking at the stall selling things pitifully, swallowing saliva from time to time.

The blue eyes also looked around from time to time, timidly looking at the people around them, the little face was white and tender, and there were a few bruises on the arms, thin and small.

Wearing a pair of big shoes that don't fit well, blue shorts and a blouse, the shoes are very shabby, but the clothes look quite new, and if you look closely, you can still see fine stitches.

What made Lu Ming strange was that in festivals such as the Flower Festival, the little girl appeared in the square alone and did not carry a lantern.

"Little sister, where are your parents?" , Lu Ming leaned forward and asked the little girl.

As soon as the little girl saw Lu Ming approaching forward, she hurriedly took two steps back, like a frightened little animal, looked around left and right, and didn't see anyone else, so she confirmed that she was asking herself.

Big eyes stared at Lu Ming vigilantly, his body tensed, and a step had been raised, as if he was ready to run at any time, timid.

Lu Ming had never seen such an interesting person, or an interesting child, and suddenly became interested, and looked at the little girl in front of him with a smile.

"I'm not a bad person," Lu Ming said with a smile, feeling like a child trafficker when he spoke.

However, the little girl didn't move, still didn't say a word, and looked at Lu Ming cautiously.

Looking at the cautious little girl, and then at the stall selling meatloaf next to him, Lu Ming suddenly had an idea.

"Boss, get me two meatloaf"

"Little young master has no money, we have three copper soul coins for meatloaf here, if not, call your parents to buy it", the stall owner is a chubby middle-aged woman with a soft voice.

"I have money", Lu Ming took out the silver soul coin in his pocket and handed it to the woman.

The woman picked up the money and observed it left and right under the lantern, put it to her mouth and bit it, and only after confirming that it was true did she open the drawer, counted ninety-four copper soul coins, piled them on the table, took out two paper bags, filled two meatloaf and handed them to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming checked that there was no deviation in the money he was looking for, put it in the small cloth bag given by the old man Lu, and then put his small lantern on the ground, and then took the meatloaf.

He took a bite of a meatloaf in one hand, exhaled some hot air, and handed the meatloaf to the little girl with the other.

"Whew, it's so fragrant, do you want to eat it, it's for you", Lu Ming said to the little girl while chewing the food.

The little girl swallowed her saliva, still didn't say a word, just looked at the meatloaf, grabbed the corner of her clothes with one hand, and rubbed it back and forth.

"Don't worry, I'm not a bad person", Lu Ming looked at the tangled little girl and added.

This sentence completely shattered the last line of defense in the little girl's heart, and she stammered out a few words.

"You...... Really not a bad guy? As he spoke, he stared at the meatloaf in Lu Ming's hand.

"No, you've seen that bad guy give you meatloaf to eat," Lu Ming said seductively.

"Okay, so that's really for me?" The little girl didn't seem to be sure about this matter and pointed to the meatloaf.

"Yes, yes, for you", the little girl's words made Lu Ming cry and laugh a little.

The girl slowly took two steps forward, looking at Lu Ming vigilantly as she walked, seeing that he didn't move, she carefully took the meatloaf, and then quickly took two steps back, to the distance she felt safe.

I took a big bite of the meatloaf, the outside of the meatloaf was warm to the touch, but the inside was very hot, I saw that she couldn't swallow it, and she refused to spit it out, and she whimpered and chewed in her mouth, which was quite cute.

Lu Ming suddenly realized the happiness of those parents, and it seemed that it was a good thing to have a cute child.

"Little sister, what's your name", Lu Ming asked the girl who was fighting to the death with the meatloaf.

The little girl took a closer look at Lu Ming and muttered with a whimper, "Mom won't let me talk to strangers."

"You see, I'm not a stranger, haven't I given you all meatloaf, how can we be ...... Well...... Friends", Lu Ming looked like a trafficker who abducted and sold children at this time.

The little girl lowered her head and thought for a while, as if she was making some major decision, and after some struggle, she asked, "Friend?" So, will you bully me? ”

"No, no, we are friends, and friends don't bully friends," Lu Ming said with a self-righteous smile.

"That'...... Okay, you can just call me Xiaohan, that's what my mother calls me", the little girl's face was a little red, and she said hesitantly.
