Weird fairy

Chapter 149 Nuo drama
The four-way pass will arrive soon.

Unexpected and reasonable, the gate was blocked by officers and soldiers, it seems to be to prevent spies.

The entire border fortress is very fortified, and there are almost no smiles on the faces of those who enter.

However, under the influence of Yinzi, the two groups passed the checkpoint smoothly.

After leaving the rivers and lakes, there are many lakes in all directions, and everything around becomes desolate, and the trees are gradually thinned out by the Gobi.

By the night of the tenth day, there was no tree as far as the eye could see.

The further you go, the more desolate it becomes. Li Huowang has already guessed that maybe this is what Houshu should have been like.

"Huh~" Zhao Wu, who was watching the night, let out a breath of white air.

He rubbed his numb hands from the cold, and breathed out continuously.

Originally, it was almost the beginning of summer, so it shouldn't be so cold, but in this desolate country, even stones are useless to block the wind, and there is no firewood to light the fire, so it is naturally terribly cold.

Turning his head to look at Li Huowang who was sleeping with Bai Lingmiao beside the carriage, Zhao Wu's eyes showed deep envy.

He looked down at his fragile body, his eyes full of inferiority.

I also want a daughter-in-law, but for a useless person like myself, no woman is willing to be with me.

Taking a breath of dry and cold air to relieve the sleepiness in his heart, he pulled himself together and practiced calligraphy on the ground with small stones.

Some of them were taught by Senior Brother Li, and some of them were taught by Gao Zhijian himself.

"I want to learn to read, I must learn!" Zhao Wu's eyes were full of determination.

He wants to prove to his father that he is not a waste!

After learning how to read, I will be able to write letters for other people to make money like the blind fortune teller at the temple fair in the future.

As long as you learn how to read, you can read more books in the future, and you can also go to the exam to get fame and become a high-ranking official!

"At that time..." Just as he was thinking about the future, he suddenly felt someone behind him.

This abnormal change gave Zhao Wu a chill all over.

His body began to tremble involuntarily, and just as he was about to remind the other brothers loudly, a hand without a nail cover covered his mouth. "Shut up, it's me!"

Li Huowang's voice made Zhao Wu relax quickly.

He lowered his voice to the lowest level and asked, "Senior Brother Li, what's the matter?"

Looking around, there is only the dark Gobi around, and there is nothing.

"Shh~ I touched something, I'll try it first to see if it's alive."

Staring at one place, Li Huowang cleared his throat, and suddenly shouted to the other side: "The three old and the four young are on the way, and there are sea jellyfish swimming out of the river. I don't know which one to play?"

Li Huowang's voice spread far away in the empty next door, and this voice also woke up the others.

"Can the Spring Festival be opened?" A voice even hoarse than Li Huowang's came from afar.

"Spring is blooming!"

"Shoulder to shoulder, swing a vine?"

Li Huowang made a salute to that side. "A Linglong Pagoda! Facing Qingzhai and leaning against the sand! Chaoshouziman!"

"It turned out to be Master Li, did he pass by or wait?"

"Just passing by, what's the shopkeeper's name?"

As soon as Li Huowang said this, there was no reply.

It was only after dawn that Li Huowang realized that the man had already left.

"I didn't expect the incision taught by Escort Zhao to come in handy so soon." Li Huowang muttered to himself.

Although he was keenly aware of that person's arrival last night, he couldn't fully see whether he was alone or a group of people.

It would be great if the conflict could be resolved by just saying a few words now.

After all, no one knows whether these bandits of unknown origin have the means to suppress the bottom of the box.

When he learned about the thrilling night from Li Huowang, Lu Zhuangyuan suddenly felt a wave of fear.

"My darling, it's only been a long time, and I'm here to intercept the road. It seems that Hou Shu is not living in peace."

Li Huowang sat up with his bits and pieces on his back.

"Whether he is safe or not, we are just passing by. Let's go quickly. Hurry up today. We should be able to go to town in the dark."

The road after that was fairly normal. Although the surrounding area was still desolate, at least the road was not blocked.

Just when Lu Zhuangyuan flattered Li Huowang for a while, they finally saw people.

"Father, why is this horse so strange? Why are there two bumps on its back?" Lu Xiucai asked.

"Are you stupid? That's a camel!"

"Ring, ring, ring~" The camel bell kept ringing, and the camel team stepped on the hard road and moved forward slowly.

Li Huowang glanced at the camel driver, but found that he was covering his face, which seemed to be to prevent wind and sand.

The appearance of the camel seemed to be a signal, and soon more and more people began to gather gradually.

Finally, Li Huowang and others arrived at the first town in Houshu before dark.

As soon as he entered the town, Li Huowang saw the difference between Houshu people and Siqi people, both in architecture and clothing are more rough.

I don't know if it was because of wind and sand, many people in the town covered their faces.

But this is also good, the other brothers who are covered with black gauze hats will not look so obtrusive here.

"Let's go. Let's find an inn to stay. We've been traveling for more than ten days. Let's rest."

The rest of the dusty people suddenly showed expressions of relief.

Life without fire and water is really not human.

The group followed the others and blended into the crowds of the town.

At the nearby stalls, the aroma of grilled food and noodle soup teased everyone's taste buds.

As they walked, they came to an empty place that looked like the center of the town.

The sound of drums and gongs immediately attracted everyone to look towards the crowded crowd.

"Is this the Nuo opera?" Li Huowang looked at the three jumping up and down in the crowd and muttered to himself.

Shaking the head, twisting the body, squatting and trembling, wrapping the wrists, stepping, and jumping.

The three people whose heads were wrapped in red cloth and wore hideous wooden masks danced very strangely, as if they were unimaginable movements.

Accompanied by this weird dance, there are chaotic rhythms of gongs and drums.

And from time to time, there is also a musical instrument that looks like a horn.

The sound from the black horns was like the whining of a female ghost.

The sound of gongs, drums, ghost cries, coupled with that weird dancing posture, made Li Huowang feel uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it.

But the people around didn't think much of it, they sat there watching mesmerized.

"What is this? Can this also be called singing?" As a colleague, Lu Zhuangyuan expressed his opinion with contempt on his face.

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them twisted even more violently.

Accompanied by twisting, sharp white fangs tremblingly grew out of the wooden mask's mouth like roots and sprouts.

That's not one or two long, but a whole sixteen,
The sixteen fangs trembled together with their Nuo opera, and they also collided with each other in conjunction with the drums and gongs.

"Is this... a joke?"

The trio's teeth-playing skills are very good. Li Huowang looked at the white fangs that began to shrink and retract in their mouths, and almost thought that these fangs really grew out of their mouths.
