"I said, is it okay for you to follow me?"

The black-haired young man held the invitation to the wedding banquet between his fingertips and looked at the human boy who followed him.

The minor changed into a fleece sweatshirt with a hood today, and now he buttoned the hat to his head and put his hands in the pockets in front of his abdomen.

"It's okay." Gao Tianyi whispered, "Anyway, Brother Xia definitely doesn't want to see me now." ”

The young man squatted on the ground, his hands clutching the turf on the ground, and he looked a little cowardly, not as energetic as he had been two days ago.

Before going to bed in the early morning, he was really reprimanded, and even in his dream of taking a nap at dawn, it was Xia Chengyin's face, reprimanding him for not listening to the command and acting privately.

Well, he usually has this problem, but nothing has happened.

What happened last night was simply that they were already preparing to retreat, and he suddenly had an idea, and he pinched his fingers to catch one of the monsters that were chasing them and couldn't see their faces clearly.

The young man thought so, and moved like this, and then was almost killed by the strange-shaped monster.

After eating the spell and being scattered, he seemed to have enough output, but he didn't expect that the next second the mirage monster would reappear, and the cage on top of his head would pounce on him.

When the two adults took him away from him left and right, one hit his face and the other hit his foot because of the field.

Fortunately, fortunately, the monster in the mirage broke away from the mountain road and returned to the scope of Wenjia Village, and did not appear again after passing by the stone monument at the entrance of the village.

"I'm reflecting." Gao Tianyi muttered, "I'm really reflecting." ”

Bai Su stared at the human boy wordlessly.

He can't say, he can't tell whether Gao Tianyi has reflection or not, he always feels that reflection is, but it is not enough.

It's really sufficient, where will come with him.

He finally said hello to Donno, who was walking last because of his lame legs, and slipped halfway down the road with the wedding invitation from the humans.

He didn't care if there was a small tail on the back of his buttocks, and the humans around him would find someone to keep up with him, compared to Tang Nuo and Xia Chengyin, in fact, Gao Tianyi was easier to deal with.

After determining that Gao Tianyi had no intention of returning, they stood at this T-shaped intersection, waiting for the procession to pass by.

The sound of firecrackers rang out one after another, and the place where they stood was still some way from where the gongs and drums were blowing, and the people in the nearby villages seemed to be watching the excitement, and they were the only ones there.

This road should be the only way to welcome relatives.

Bai Su judged according to his wandering around the village yesterday and Wen Jianyuan's guidance, unless the groom's team wanted to find another way, then he could only take the human boy to change places.

"Speaking of which." The black-haired youth nodded his chin and asked, "How does the greeting generally work?" ”

No one replied for a long time, and the young man who was pulling the turf on the ground realized after a while that Bai Su was asking him.

The human boy was stunned, he thought that Bai Su did not understand the customs of the countryside.

"Let's get a car...... Cars can't be driven here, so bicycles, three-wheeled tractors? Animals, horses, donkeys, cows, etc...... If it's a little more traditional, it's a sedan chair. ”

Gao Tianyi counted it with his fingers, but he still felt that the middle ones were more likely.

The sedan chair or something is really too traditional, and it is not used by a large family, so it can't be ...... This village shares a sedan chair or something, called a shared sedan chair?

The young man's thoughts diverged, amused by his own thoughts.

He laughed twice and found that his voice was a little abrupt, so he quickly raised his face, loosened the grass clippings on his hands, clapped his hands and stood up.

Gao Tianyi raised his head, put his hand in front of his eyebrows, and looked at it from afar.

"It's closer, it looks like it's coming soon."

The smoke and dust from the firecracker explosion approached, and the villagers who walked in front put a long string of red firecrackers on the ground, lit the fuse and ran.

I heard a crackling sound, and the sound of gongs and drums was approaching.

The team to greet the relatives is really very lively, and it is even a little noisy when you hear it closely.

The human boy beside him had already covered his ears, and in the midst of the noise of gongs and drums, he gestured with his mouth to what he wanted to say, and gestured to the back of the team a few times.

There is no imaginary palanquin, and Wenjia Village does not seem to have the tradition to that point, and the groom picks up the bride with an ox cart.

But...... Bai Su's black eyes pierced through the white smoke and saw the people on the ox cart that was covered by the smoke.

Their expressions are quite wrong, and they don't have the happiness of getting married as they imagined.

The groom had a smile on his face, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, but only floated on the surface, as if a mask had been embedded in his face.

And what about the bride on the other side? Probably accompanied by the bridesmaids, the two of them were talking together in a whisper, although they couldn't see their expressions clearly, they were definitely not smiling, and they didn't even look at the groom.

The procession that could be seen by the monster just knocked and fell, approaching and moving away, the villagers trailing behind in a long line, and a few children running around nearby.

Among them is the little girl who they have seen twice, she has changed into a very festive red dress today, and is jumping at the end with a big yellow dog.

The girl looked around, and from time to time she came to the villagers to beg for candy, until she looked at Bai Su's location, and the smile on her face froze.

There was an obvious stiffness, and even the jumping steps stopped, and the people stood there, leaving only the big yellow dog rushing forward vigorously.

This rush rushed to Bai Su's feet.

The "brand new" big yellow dog had no memory of the horror of the black-haired youth and the reaction of his previous trembling tail between his legs.

The earth dog unconsciously circled the legs of the two men, and was called by its little master before wagging its tail and running back.

As soon as he returned, the big yellow dog was surrounded by the little girl's neck and hugged tightly, and the girl's eyes stared at the two vigilantly...... The main thing is to watch Bai Su, beware of Bai Su's approach.

The black-haired young man who wasn't going to do anything, at least during the day, spread his hands.

If he met him at night, he might have eaten a mouthful.

Thinking so, Bai Su took a step forward, and on the contrary, the girl also took a step back.

Then there is the repetition of the above scene, knowing that the girl has no way to retreat.

The girl did not hit the wall with the dog in her arms, but bumped into Gao Tianyi, who spontaneously circled around and blocked the back.

The young man was a head taller than the girl, and cooperated with Bai Su to block people one after another.

It's a bit of a bad posture, but unfortunately there are no other audiences, and most of the villagers follow the team to welcome relatives.

Bai Su squatted down, and the girl was like a cat with the fur on the back of her neck, her neck shrunk and her eyes widened.

"Don't be afraid." Bai Su originally wanted to say that he was not a bad person, but after thinking about it, this word was not very accurate, so he changed his words and said, "I don't eat people." ”

Now, the girl is more vigilant, and the experience of being forcibly grabbed and walked away yesterday is still vivid.

Gao Tianyi looked at the girl's attitude on the side, and felt that no, this conversation could not go on.

Although I don't know why Bai Su is looking for this little girl, it seems that he is looking at the face of the little girl in the red dress for the first time, but the adults always have their own ideas, so the young man went up to play the round.

"Little sister, we're going to the wedding banquet, and we don't know the way, so we're waiting here." Far-fetched reasons, anyway, as long as the person who said it believes it, "Hmm...... What about your parents? Why are you the only one here? ”

“…… Grandma's legs and feet are inconvenient, so she went to the place to eat in advance and waited. ”

Perhaps it was the unknown threat, the little girl confessed honestly.

Except for the dog in her arms, she barked and looked like she was not afraid of the sky and the earth.

It's really completely different from the dirt dog I saw the night before yesterday, could it be that the individual after the reconstruction will change slightly?

Bai Su stretched out his hand, and his fingers hung in front of the big yellow dog's mouth, causing the earth dog to bare his teeth.

Gao Tianyi: ......

Gao Tianyi: Brother Bai, stop playing!

Seeing that the black-haired youth was more interested in dogs than in girls, the human teenager slowly put a question mark.

Why did things turn out the way they did? Three minutes later, he became himself holding the little girl's hand, and his white brother was holding the big yellow dog, Gao Tianyi couldn't figure it out.

The young man looked at the little girl he was holding in his hand, and then at the earth dog in Bai Su's arms that went from barking to trembling like a quail, and felt that something had happened in the middle, something that he didn't know.

Bai Su, who held the "food" in his arms, was in a much better mood, and he seemed to have finally remembered what was going on and began to ask about things.

"Yesterday...... It should be said that in the early hours of this morning, did you lose something very important in your village? ”

"I don't know." The little girl pouted.

The little one slept super well at night, and she had no idea what was going on in the middle of the night.

Bai Su didn't expect to get the answer from the little girl's mouth, he just felt that the people in the village were emotionally stripped quite quickly, and they lost something very important at night, and they were able to hold the wedding as usual during the day.

Obviously, it is an important thing related to the life of the village.

It may also ...... As previously deduced, day and night in Wenjia Village are separated.

"Let's change the question." Bai Su pinched the dog paw of "food", raised it and waved, "Do you know the bride and groom who are about to have a wedding?" ”

They are now on their way to the wedding venue, with the little girl herself showing the way, no detours, and shortcuts.

Of course, the little girl knows the bride and groom, and the Wenjia Village is so big that everyone looks up and doesn't look down.

Because of the presence of the dog, the little girl answered and answered a series of questions that Bai Su asked later.

Like the groom and the bride, do they usually have a good relationship, how long have they known each other, and did the marriage be discussed early in the morning? This kind of question is asked a lot.

Bai Su spoke very quickly, not giving the little girl a chance to react, and the child's brain didn't turn so fast, and it was too late to make up lies.

Except for a few sentences that are obviously stuck, they all sound like real answers.

The relationship between the groom and the bride is not very good, but they have known each other for a long time, but the little girl is not very clear about this, and she only occasionally listens to adults.

The marriage is set early in the morning, and even if it is not the bride and groom today, there will be other candidates.

In other words, it doesn't matter who the two people who are married, as long as they are a man and a woman, it is just that there are candidates of the right age in the village, so they can take them and make up for them.

"So—the one who will have his birthday tomorrow?"

"Second aunt is next week's birthday." The little girl whispered, "But the village says they want to give it to her in advance." ”

The old man's own wishes are not very important at this time, everything is mainly for the village.

What is this for? The black-haired young man thought to himself.

Walking and walking, the sound of firecrackers has long stopped, and the sound of blowing music continues, which is not very pleasant, and there are occasional wrong sounds, but the main one is joyful.

Jubilant, everyone's emotions were mobilized.

Bai Su stood in the doorway, he turned to the human boy and asked, "Do you really want to go in?" ”

From the open door, you can glimpse the tables inside, and there are already many people sitting at the tables, and there are several plates on the tables.

If you look around, you can see that the plate is fried golden and crispy with small dried fish.

"Are you really going in?" Bai Su asked again, "If you just sit in and don't eat anything, you'll be targeted." ”

Bai Su elaborated on a fact that is likely to happen.

He came here because he saw the food at the wedding banquet and touched the invitation, but what are humans going to do?

To eat fish or not to eat fish, that's the question.

Gao Tianyi was asked, and his eyes returned to the dinner table two days ago, the owner of the house who cooked delicious and fatty "fish" on a plate and bowl, and his attitude was obviously abnormal.

"Ah......" The young man opened his mouth and couldn't help but clench his hands, "I ......"

It's very risky to go in, but it's obviously not appropriate to leave Bai Su alone in it if you don't go in...... Wait a minute!

The minor followed Bai Su's words and thought about it, and after thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong.

Why did he acquiesce that they were going to go in to eat?

Can't they not go in!

Gao Tianyi turned his head violently, and the black-haired young man showed a greedy smile at the person.

No, no, no, they can't!

"I think it's okay to eat, you see I finished eating a whole table at Wen Jianyuan's house that day, isn't it okay now?"

“…… I think Brother Bai, you are an example, and you can't generalize with an example. ”

"Well, actually, I think you can try it."

"I don't want it......"

Gao Tianyi tried his best to resist, and he also tried to get the invitation card that Bai Su held in his fingertips.

As long as you get your hands on it, you will definitely be able to dispel the idea of Bai Su going in and taking a look in person.

However, the young man was limited by his height, and even if he jumped up, he was a few fingertips away from the black-haired young man's raised arm

Coerced by them all the way...... Girl Brought Over: They're sick, right?

The little girl in the red dress couldn't read it, and she didn't want to understand it.

Seeing that the two "bad guys" in her eyes didn't have time to care about her, even though she really wanted to get the big yellow dog back, but she was weak by herself, so the little girl ran in on her feet.

After a while, she led an adult out.

When she walked to the door, the little girl didn't speak, but raised her hand and pointed to the earth dog that was held in Bai Su's arms.

The adult who came out with him frowned, he didn't look like a dog snatcher when he looked at Bai Su.

It's just that something not very wonderful happened yesterday, and the adult cleared his throat seriously: "This guest, can you return the dog of the Wen Hong family?" ”

Bai Su's raised hand was stunned, and the invitation was taken away by a jumping Gao Tianyi.

But it doesn't matter, it's unlikely that a human teenager will tear up an invitation in front of people.

Bai Su glanced at the little girl with a smile and obediently put the dog on the ground.

The big yellow dog ran as soon as it landed on all fours, and hid behind the little girl with a smoke between its tails, even though the little girl was not big enough to hide it.

Look, at this time, the dog, like its predecessors, is full of fear of the existence of Bai Su.

After the adults helped to get the dog back, he began to study the identities of Bai Su and Gao Tianyi, and his eyes skimmed over the invitation card in Gao Tianyi's hand.

"Oh, you're Wen Tao's friends, aren't you? And only people she knew needed to come with invitations. ”

"You're here for the wedding feast, do you want to go in now?"

A not-so-good, in a way, death-like invitation was sent.
