Chapter 64: Gluttony and Heavy Birds
At the end of the road, from the left and right, a half-human-high thick wooden fence is used as a wall to enclose a huge rectangular field with the road extension line as the central axis.
From the position of the wind chant, the left and right directions of the field are obscured by the vague shadows of the trees, and there is no end in sight. Inside the venue, a road as wide as the entrance divides the entire night market into two parts, each with stone slabs lined up in rows.
Inside the night market, what attracts the attention of the wind is the large flame that ignites high in the depths of the venue, which is vigorous and enthusiastic, as dazzling and bright as the sun, enveloping the entire night market in a warm light.
In contrast, the braziers and torches erected next to the stalls have become starlight, dotted on the ground.
The sun and the stars complement each other here, but they also complement each other.
Wu Jifeng looked at the bonfire and sighed a little embarrassed, "Since that time, Dad has not allowed us to come here again." We were punished for thinking in the house on this day every year, and we never came back again. ”
Feng Yin imagined what it was like when the uncle and his father were swimming together, and then looked at the uncle's lonely expression at the moment, and suddenly a wave of regret came to his heart, and the words came out unconsciously, "Tonight, you should come here with your father." ”
Wu Jifeng looked down at Feng Yin's expression, and saw that she was not angry, but felt a kind of sadness and regret floating on her face, and couldn't help but sigh, she was really big, big enough to understand other people's feelings.
sighed but laughed at himself, and couldn't help but joke: "Your father is married, where is he willing to accompany me all day long." ”
Feng Yin looked up at him and smiled, "That's why you brought me here?"
Wu Jifeng nodded, took off the hat of her cloak, took out a cloth bag from his arms, spread it on the palm of his hand and handed it to Feng Yin, and said with a naughty smile: "I originally wanted to bring Wen Shuo over, but I am afraid that I can't show my skills, so I can only bring you over." ”
Feng Yin was puzzled, and looked at his palm with some doubts, but only saw two masks, one black and one red, so he was even more puzzled, and said suspiciously: "This is your craft?"
Wu Jifeng deliberately glared at Feng Yin with some dissatisfaction, and snorted: "You just look down on me like this? Wait, I'm sure to open your eyes later!"
After saying that, he raised the red mask and stuffed it to Feng Yin, and he covered the black one on his face, tying the strap behind his ear and fixing it.
Feng Yin frowned at the wide nose and big round eyes that covered his face, and said in disgust, "This is really ugly, like a monster." ”
Wu Jifeng smiled and said, "What do you know, this is called gluttony, a divine beast that eats all the world's food, uncle, I am here to eat today." ”
Feng Yin pursed his lips, and his face was full of disapproval, "You gluttony doesn't even have a mouth, and the Dragon King doesn't recognize it." ”
Wu Jifeng touched his big nose with a smile and argued, "How can we eat with our mouths covered, how convenient and how can we come, why bother to stick to small sections." ”
Wind Yin laughed and ignored him before lowering his head to look at his mask.
Wu Jifeng looked at the mask and laughed, "This is a heavy bird, which can repel fierce beasts." ”
It is also a small mask that can only cover the nose and the upper position, the nose is straight and pointed on the red face, the two eyes are slender to the ear, the outside of the eyes is embroidered with silver silk thread to imitate the pattern of feathers, shining in the light of the fire, and the position above the right eye is obliquely glued with a yellow feather as bright as a flame, which is both bright and realistic.
Feng Yin looked at the bustling crowd not far away, and quickly put the mask on his face, Wu Jifeng reached out and took the two yellow ribbons behind his ears and tied them into a beautiful bow.
Turning Feng Yin's shoulders to face him, Wu Jifeng nodded with great satisfaction after observing for a while, and laughed again, "How about it, eldest miss, will you go in with Uncle for a walk?"
Feng Yin stretched out his hand and gently flicked the long feather, looked at the uncle's smiling face again, the corners of his lips hooked, reached out and grabbed his arm, took the lead and walked out, and said with some excitement: "Hurry up, if you don't go, good things will be eaten!"
Wu Jifeng smiled dotingly, deliberately slowed down, and let her pull her into the night market.
Zuo Qiusheng took Luo Anhua's arm and came to a stall selling antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and carefully looked at the objects on the stall, but the speed of looking at it was a little fast, not like appreciation, but like looking for something.
Luo Anhua stood behind him, raised his eyes and looked at the jade treasures on the stall in front of him, and smiled when he looked at it, although these things are not the best, they can still be handled. He couldn't help but feel a little relieved, this child had finally grown a little.
It's just that Zuo Qiusheng looked at it from left to right, and finally didn't hold anything in his hand, obviously he didn't choose the one that fits, so he frowned and sighed, and turned around to leave.
When the stall owner saw Zuo Qiusheng and Luo Anhua dressed luxuriously, he knew that they must be from rich backgrounds, so how could they easily let go of a big deal at hand. Seeing that Zuo Qiusheng turned around and wanted to leave, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile, stretched out his hand slightly to block Zuo Qiusheng's front, and said with a smile: "Hey, hey, little boy, don't be in a hurry to go, I still have some things at the bottom of the box that haven't been put out, you wait a little longer, I'll take out the things for you to see, maybe you can find something pleasing to the eye, you say no!"
Without waiting for Zuo Qiusheng to answer, he pulled him back a step, turned around and went to carry a large wooden box under the stone platform.
Zuo Qiusheng was a little embarrassed by the stall owner's enthusiasm, and wanted to leave but was embarrassed, so he had to stand there and watch him busy.
Luo Anhua followed behind him, sighed silently, and continued to admire the calligraphy and paintings on the stall boredly, but he didn't change his face to urge.
The stall owner cleaned up a piece of empty space from the stall and put the box, smiled at Zuo Qiusheng and opened the door, pulled out five layers of drawers from top to bottom in turn, pointed to the treasures inside and said: "Little boy, take a look, here are all the best things, every piece is a treasure, take a look, is there anything that suits your eyes?"
"Look at the top layer, this pair of bowls and chopsticks is made by the best master in the Imperial Bureau of the capital, it was originally intended for the first emperor to celebrate his birthday, but the first emperor died before Halloween, and this thing flowed out of the palace, you look at the golden dragon on this bowl, the eyes are still inlaid with rubies......"
Zuo Qiusheng looked carefully from top to bottom, there were many things, gold bowls and chopsticks, jade wrenches, I don't know what small boxes made of wood, and some calligraphy and paintings, porcelain or something, it looked gorgeous, but there was still nothing I wanted.
So he shook his head without waiting for the stall owner to finish his introduction, and said to the stall owner with a sincere face: "Boss, I have taken a closer look, and there is nothing here that suits my eyes, can I leave now?"
The stall owner was still talking about the various treasures and devices in the box, but when he heard this, he was suddenly blocked, and he was stunned there with his mouth open, as if he had swallowed an unshelled egg, and he couldn't spit it out or swallow it.
Luo Anhua watched quietly, and couldn't help but laugh out loud by the stall owner's expression, a pair of narrow beautiful eyes bent high, and his shoulders couldn't stop shaking.
He smiled and stepped forward and reached out to touch the top of Zuo Qiusheng's head, and his heart was suddenly very comforted, this child is angry, and he is really more powerful than ordinary people.
Zuo Qiusheng didn't understand why the ghost king suddenly became happy, turned his face and looked at him suspiciously, as if he still didn't understand, so he turned his face to the stall owner again.
The stall owner was a little embarrassed by Luo Anhua's laughter, but he couldn't have a seizure, so he coughed lightly, lowered his head and closed the wooden box door.
Seeing that the stall owner ignored him, Zuo Qiusheng could only look at Luo Anhua again, put him on top of his head and pulled him down, and said, "Let's go, let's go ahead and have a look." ”
Luo Anhua was rarely in such a good mood, looked at him with a smile on his face, and replied happily: "Okay." ”
It's just that before leaving, Luo Anhua caught a glimpse of the stall owner's face again, couldn't help but smile again, touched Zuo Qiusheng's head, and said, "You wait first." ”
After speaking, he stepped forward, put his hand on the wooden box, and smiled at the stall owner: "I saw that there was a box just now, which is not bad, why don't you take it out and show it to me." ”
The stall owner first raised his head in surprise, and immediately regained his composure when he met Luo Anhua's gaze, and a smile appeared on his face as usual, and said, "Hey, Childe is really good eyesight!"
As he spoke, he immediately opened the wooden box, pulled out the bottom drawer, carefully took out the box, held it in his hand and handed it to Luo Anhua, and said with a smile: "Childe, you see, this is the agarwood jade lotus jewelry box, the box body and the top cover are carved from a whole piece of agarwood according to its own texture, you look at the side of this box, is it like a lotus flower with five petals closed together?"
Luo Anhua took the box in his hand and glanced at it, smiled and nodded, it was really a bit similar.
The stall owner looked at Luo Anhua's expression and smiled even more, and pointed to the jade carving inlaid on the outside of the box and opened his mouth, "Look at the white jade lady on the outside of each lotus flower, but it is all carved with a good mutton fat jade hollow." As he spoke, he pointed his finger at the picture of the lady facing Luo Anhua, and said: "If you look closely at this woman's clothing, there is also a colorful bird carved on her skirt, which shows how exquisite the workmanship is!"
Luo Anhua turned the box, and saw that the posture of the ladies on each lotus flower was different, but they were all disgusted and laughing, lifelike.
At this time, Zuo Qiusheng also came up, reached out and took the box, touched it again, and sniffed it with his nose before saying: "This is Qi Nan agarwood, which is the top grade in agarwood." ”
When the stall owner heard this, his eyes widened and he said approvingly: "The little boy looks young, but he didn't expect to be an expert!"
Luo Anhua looked at Zuo Qiusheng, with a little surprise in his eyes, and asked, "Do you still know this?"
