Strange Tales

There is a small town at the foot of Qingluo Mountain, known as Qingjiao Town.

There are not many people in the town, but the market is full of things.

Whenever he went to the market, Lizi was always very happy, chatting non-stop with a little sparrow along the way.

Master seldom went with us, but this time, during the annual Lantern Festival in Qingjiao Town, the chestnuts were soaked for half a night, so Master couldn't resist nodding his head.

The Lantern Festival is very lively, and most of them are born for young faithful men and women. The town pays attention to the difference between men and women. Therefore, on the Lantern Festival, girls who grow up from boudoirs usually dress up carefully. If a young man sees a girl he likes, If it is not good to go up to the girl directly, she will follow her secretly, write down where the girl lives, and send a matchmaker to her door someday to find out about her, in order to form a good relationship.

The son and the girl rejoiced, and even the people who saw it also rejoiced.

When we arrived, it was mid-sun, and the streets were crowded with all kinds of lanterns, flower baskets, palace lanterns, lotus lanterns, bamboo horse lanterns, Pisces lanterns, hexagonal ones, and all kinds of lanterns. , along the way to the 99 bridges.In fact, there are not 99 bridges, but it is estimated that there are only about [-] bridges. They are stretched across the Qingling River passing through the town. The river is rippling and willow branches hang down.

It's not yet night, the Lantern Festival has not yet started, and the market is already bustling with people coming and going, most of them come from neighboring towns or just because of their reputation.

This is quiet and quiet, and lively and lively.

The chestnuts have stretched the belly to [-]% all the way. Stir-fried chestnuts in sugar, pear flower cakes, candied haws, and candied fruits are a real pleasure.

Seeing his satisfied appearance, I poked his increasingly protruding belly, and teased: "Li Zi, don't crush the bed again next time."

Lizi turned her head and pouted, but her mouth was full of food, so she could only stare and express her dissatisfaction, and then she didn't know what fun and delicious food she saw, so she rushed towards the front in a hurry.

Only Master and I were left walking all the way, without chestnuts, we couldn't find anyone to tease, and didn't know what to say for a long time.In fact, it was fine before, but since the last time I slept in the same bed with Master, everything seems to be a little different. In short, it is a very subtle feeling. It is better to think of some words in your brain to relieve the more embarrassing atmosphere.

"Hey, candied haws, freshly dipped!" shouted the peddlers walking around the streets.

"Master, do you eat candied haws?" I took a bunch of candied haws I just bought and handed them over. As soon as I handed them over, I immediately regretted it. A person like Shizun who has a clear wind, bright moon and bright wind is born to play the piano Tasting tea, reviewing books and practicing swords, watching him eat candied haws, I guess even I can't bear to watch that scene.

Sure enough, Master shook his head and said in a low voice, "You eat!"

The voice was low and deep, and everyone who heard it trembled.

I took a bite of a candied haws, sweet and sour, and thought: What should I say to Master after eating the candied haws? If Master doesn’t want to talk, maybe he will make me less awkward and answer my words against my will. But if I don't speak, what if Master gets bored and thinks I'm boring.

While thinking about it for a while, a candied haws just entered my stomach.

The feeling of the handkerchief covering the corners of my lips suddenly pulled me back from the void, and the blood in my body seemed to flow back in an instant, rushing to the red dripping face, scalding to death.

Master carried a handkerchief in his slender and well-defined hands, and moved gently.

I lowered my head and eyebrows in a hurry, I couldn't see Master's eyes, eyes and expression. In fact, my mind is completely blank now, as if something is about to come out, but I still hold Piba half-hidden, hypocritical Fan.

"It's so big, it's still like a child." Master's voice resounded in my ears, soft and light as drizzle.

I raised my head, met those clear and gentle eyes unexpectedly, my heartbeat seemed to miss a beat, I quickly looked away, landed on the ground again, and whispered: "I'm not a child." To outsiders, it sounds like an awkward little daughter-in-law. Thinking about it this way makes me feel so ashamed that I want to find a hole to get in before I give up.

"what?"

Fortunately, Master did not hear, fortunately.

I know in my heart that Master treats me well, but this kindness may be the same as treating Lizi, it is just a simple master-student relationship.After all, it is impossible to penetrate people's hearts, knowing that it is good, but not knowing what is so good, knowing that it is important, but not knowing what it is to value.I'm afraid, I'm afraid, everything is just a shadow in a dream, a moon in a mirror.Because I was afraid of losing, I didn't dare to ask, and I was afraid that if I asked, I would never go back.

After Xiyanhua cultivated into a demon, she only had one piece of sincerity. This sincerity can be weighed as one on the scale, but two or two is not enough. I don’t know if Master wants it or not.

"Master, Junior Brother, why did the two sisters over there cover their mouths and smile so maliciously when they saw us?" At some point, Li Zi came back after having robbed us.

Following the direction he pointed, there were really two blushing girls whispering in whispers, didn't they look at each other after a couple of glances, and secretly covered their mouths and eyebrows and said something with a smile.

Although the distance is quite far, I am a demon, and the hearing of demons is excellent, so those whispers naturally entered my ears.I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a heat rushed to my ears. It doesn't matter to me why a girl nowadays can say everything in an open manner, but Master will definitely be able to hear it. What should I do? Will not be angry will not mind? "live", "broken sleeve", "cute", "matching"

how is it possible

"Junior brother, what's wrong with you, are you sick? Your face is so red." Li Zi still asked reluctantly.

"It's okay, let's go!" I said while secretly observing the changes in Master's expression. From the beginning to the end, Master still had that gentle and refined face, as if what just happened was someone else's story. See here , My heart was sour and astringent, it was very unpleasant, as if I secretly hid a piece of candy, and I was secretly delighted, and finally I was suddenly told that this piece of candy was no longer edible.

During the Lantern Festival, there are many foreign tourists in the town, and the inns are almost full.Fortunately, after looking for a few, there are still vacant ones.

"The guest officials don't know how many rooms they want." The waiter in the inn asked with a cloth scarf on his shoulders with a smile.

I sneaked a look at Master, and thought to myself: Normally, Master would definitely want two rooms, one for Li Zi and I, and Master to sleep in one alone, but now if Master wants two rooms, it’s me I live in one room with Shizun, it is still the same as before. If Shizun asked for three rooms, it means that Shizun must be very concerned about what the two girls said just now, but if Shizun still wants two rooms as before, maybe he is thinking about it. I still mind, but it's just pretending not to mind in order to save me from embarrassing me so much.

Xiao Er didn't hear the answer for a long time, so she asked again.

Li Zi threw a piece of pear cake into his mouth, and said, "I want to sleep in a room alone. Otherwise, if the bed here collapses, I will have to pay for it."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Three rooms!" I made a gesture of three.

Master seemed to glance at me, but when I looked over, he didn't.

Xiaoer looked apologetic and said: "Guest officer, I'm really sorry, there are only two rooms left in the store. Don't worry, our inn not only has big rooms, but also big beds, so it won't be crowded."

I thought to myself: Obviously there are only two rooms, but I still want others to struggle for a long time.

"That's it!" Master said lightly.

Li Zi rolled back to the next room with a paper bag of candied chestnuts, leaving Master and I standing in the corridor.
