When Su Su came to the east of Wuhu with a huge green-skinned watermelon in her hands, the July and a half activities of putting out flames were drawing to a close.The open space in front was crowded with men, women and children, most of them were strong young men, and there were many little dolls.There are not no women, but not many, most of them are elderly people or little girls of five or six years old. It is almost impossible to find girls in the cardamom age. Even if there are, they are all dressed in coarse linen.

Although there were many people, the scene was not lively. Instead, it looked solemn and solemn, and even the air that was exhaled was depressing.

What a weird stagnant atmosphere~

Cen Biqing mentioned that Susu was sitting on a strong old weeping willow ten feet away from the crowd. Susu found a wide branch for herself, adjusted her posture, and moved the watermelon worth three copper coins to her side. Hand it over, and pouted.Cen Biqing glanced at her, why, are you not afraid of him now?The original cautious appearance disappeared as soon as he encountered the problem of eating... Finally he took it, Yubai held both ends with his fingertips, and without any force, he divided the melon into two neat halves, and handed it over again. Give Susu half of it back, and there is a small blue and white spoon that appeared out of a magic trick lying in the open palm.

Susu put half of the watermelon on her lap, and started to eat it one spoon at a time with a small spoon. Her eyes slipped into the noisy crowd, and she glanced around twice before returning to the watermelon.

She swallowed a piece of watermelon and let out a sigh of satisfaction: "Hey, will Xu Xian come?... Hey, Xiaoqing, why don't you eat it?"

With flying fingers, Xiaoqing gracefully scooped up a small spoonful of melon pulp and put it into her lips, as soon as she took the mouth, her brows frowned slightly, and the almost perfect smile on her face was still tight: "Don't worry, he will come. "

Su Su unconsciously poked the watermelon flesh, pondered: "They should meet at this time, right?" Rubbing her chin, she sighed, "I really hope this time will be a good start."

Cen Biqing just smiled and said nothing.

Susu dug out a large spoonful of watermelon pulp, swallowed it whole, tilted her head, stared at him with bright eyes: "Xiaoqing, do you think it will work this time?" Before he could answer, she talked to herself again : "What if I fail again? If Dailuo can't do it, it's already a shock. If the herring and white lotus can't do it, then I must be killed directly. This charming woman is sent to his arms. If he can still be like Liu Xiahui, Either he was bent or he was impotent! At that time, I absolutely had every reason to suspect that he couldn’t do it. If he really couldn’t do it, we couldn’t correct it. The congenital deformity should not be counted on us, right? So failure is inevitable...you Say, does Queen Mother Xi accept this reason?"

Cen Biqing looked back at her tenderly: "Susu... let's eat melon..."

"..." What a tactful dislike~

So Su Su stopped talking and ate watermelon in silence.

In the middle of the crowd are the temporary mage's seat and Shigutai.In front of the mage's seat is the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who has saved ghosts from hell, and below is a plate of noodles made of peaches and rice.On the Shigu platform stood three spirit cards and a banner for summoning souls, on which were filled with whole pigs, whole sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, and various cakes and fruits.A blue, red, and green triangular paper flag is inserted on each sacrifice, and the words "Yu Lan Festival" and "Ganlumen Open" are written on it.When Susu arrived, it happened to be the ceremony where the mage rang the bell and led the monks to recite various mantras and mantras.

Susu didn't understand the mantras and mantras at all, so she had to eat watermelon boredly.When more than half of the watermelon was bitten to pieces, the ceremony was finally over.Susu burped, and frowned when she saw those mages and monks leave the stage. A few middle-aged men with very rich appearance came up to the stage. They were presumably local gentry. The leader was a corrupt man with a belly full of people's fat, Fat head, big ears and oily face, but he still made a series of testimonials in a polite way, which really felt a little disobedient.

Susu yawned a few times, and when she fell down on the willow tree with tears in her eyes, she only heard the old man seem to say: "... the feeding begins." The crowd erupted, and Susu opened her eyes Looking around, I saw those squires sprinkle a plate of peaches and rice in all directions, repeated three times, and many people in the crowd were waiting for them with their clothes up. The scene was lively and happy, and Su Su's sleepiness disappeared a lot , but still too lazy to move, squinting and half asleep.

Cen Biqing gently pushed her shoulder and said, "Susu, the next thing is interesting, you might as well take a look."

So Susu moved back, stood up and looked with wide eyes, and saw the crowd reversed direction, rushing to a larger open space on one side.

There was originally a platform more than ten feet high on the open space. To be exact, it was a shed with a height of nearly four floors. All kinds of offerings were placed on it, and a pure gold plaque was hung on the top. If it were not for the crowd Squeezing to the other side, she didn't realize it, a flash of inspiration flashed in Susu's mind, she stretched out her jade finger and pointed away, her gaze was glued to Cen Biqing's face, and she asked in surprise and surprise: "What is that table for?"

Cen Biqing replied: "Grab the orphan." After thinking for a while, he added: "It's a self-righteous trick of mortals."

When Susu wanted to ask how to do it again, the room had already started with gongs and drums.The crowd spontaneously lined up around the bamboo shed, circled around, probably divided into ten teams, each team was five people, all strong and strong men, each stood on a pillar, and the fattest squire stood aside On the stage, there was another testimonial speech that made people feel confused. Fortunately, this time it was relatively short, and it ended hastily. With just one order, the crowd instantly boiled like dumplings, and climbed to the top of the shed without thinking about themselves. go.

Sitting in this room, Su Su was full of pride and passion. She never thought that she would be lucky enough to witness this scene that only appeared on the screen. It was like the scene of the lion dance winning the gold medal!The only pity is that one or two wonderful places will be captured on TV, but at the scene, Susu felt that her eyes were not enough to see. She only felt a coaxing sound, and the crowd had already jumped several feet. At the beginning, everyone's progress was slow. Soon, when they reached the top, the crowd froze. One by one you pulled me, I pulled you, and they refused to give in to each other. The thin and small man who was far ahead was bound by two people at this time, struggling into a ball a few feet away from the gold medal, the scene was chaotic in the wind, and several people couldn't stand it and fell down during the struggle. The soft sandy soil doesn't hurt too much.But the people from all walks of life are unwilling to accommodate each other, and instead create a situation of mutual suppression, but no one can move freely. At the critical moment, whoever snatches the gold medal first has become secondary, and the main thing has become trying to prevent it. Others go for the gold medal.

The scene froze.

Just at this time, it is the latecomers who come first.A slender man appeared in an inconspicuous corner at the bottom of the shed, with a vigorous and graceful figure, like a frightened dragon swimming, with his clothes flying around, he easily walked around the crowd with their hands and feet tangled up, as if walking on flat ground, all the way unimpeded During this period, several people wanted to grab him, but the man was agile and their hands and feet were restrained, so they couldn't grab a piece of his clothes.

Cen Biqing was thoughtful. "Ji Liu bravely retreats is called knowing the opportunity, he is very smart."

Susu nodded indiscriminately, and gave this person a thumbs up in her heart: what a coquettish move~

When the man returned to the ground with the gold medal, the squire went up to congratulate him as usual, and suggested that the young hero should stay and gather together. Unexpectedly, the man just smiled and made a bow, "Thank you for your kindness, Forgive me for not being able to accompany you in Chinese, my sister is still waiting for me to go back to eat, so I am leaving." After saying that, she turned and left, which happened to be on the right side of Susu and the others.

When the man turned around, he inadvertently glanced towards Susu, his eyes were dark, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and there was no smile at all, Susu was startled, and subconsciously hid behind Cen Biqing.

"It's okay, I set up an enchantment, he can't see it."

Su Su breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a little embarrassed about her actions just now. What was she hiding from?I turned my head sideways to think about it, and felt that I had seen that face somewhere before... Maybe all the handsome guys look alike?

A thunderbolt suddenly exploded in the sea of ​​consciousness, Su Su suddenly swallowed two blowflies, Chinese!Xu Hanwen!He is Xu Xian!

No wonder he looked familiar, she had seen him in the water mirror a month ago!

Thinking of his previous deeds and today's cunning behavior, Su Su almost gritted her silver teeth, and only after a while could she utter two words: "Shameless!"

Cen Biqing glanced at her with a half-smile, Susu was embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Personal grievances, personal grievances~" Xu Xian may have nothing wrong with him, but he is the culprit. Please forgive her for thinking of Queen Mother Xi and her husband when she sees him. That damned task, in the end, he unconsciously thought that his relationship with Xu Xian would be that of a prostitute and a benefactor!She was really unhappy.

Cen Biqing was puzzled.

Of course he wouldn't have guessed what she was thinking at the moment. What made Susu very depressed was that Queen Mother Xi had so many people for her to send, such as Lan Qing, who could be said to be top-notch, and the other attendants would not be too bad .But in the end, when they encountered this kind of dirty work, they found monsters like them. Could it be that monsters must be lewd and dissolute vixens who like to hook up with each other?Must be lower than those gods?

Susu endured it, but still scratched her fingers, and asked tentatively: "Xiaoqing, you...I mean...that..." She really didn't know how to organize her words!

Cen Biqing smiled with expectations and encouragement, and said in a gentle voice, "What's wrong with Susu, but it's okay to say."

You said it!Susu clenched her fists, and went all out: "Xiaoqing, don't you monsters pay attention to chastity at all? Don't you take morality seriously at all?"

Unexpectedly, she would ask such a question, Cen Biqing was a little stunned, his brows were slightly frowned, his face was worried, and it took a long time before he smiled a very faint smile: "Susu, your statement is biased, you are also a demon, don't you Don't you know?"

Susu glanced at him tangled, her body is indeed a monster, but the person living inside is a real person!Leaning back weakly, he explained weakly: "Perhaps I was too greedy for the mundane world when I was in Qingcheng Mountain, and I had too close acquaintance with people, but I forgot what the real nature of a monster should look like."

"Longing for the mortal world?" Cen Biqing's eyes became deeper and deeper, and she narrowed her eyes slightly, "Who has Susu ever had a close relationship with? Huh?" Most of the bones are crispy.

Uh~ How could she know!If you get to the bottom of it, you will not be able to please, so Susu thought, she simply played a rogue, grabbed his sleeve and pretended to be angry: "Xiaoqing, don't think that you can change the subject by doing this! You haven't answered my question yet!"

"If I remember correctly, I didn't promise you to answer."

Su Su was surprised: "You clearly said that!"

"But is it okay to say it?" Cen Biqing was in an inexplicably unhappy mood, and he was even more merciless when he hit someone, "Susu, I asked you to talk about your problems to relieve your melancholy, but I didn't I promise to answer you."

Melancholy you big aunt!Susu's eyes widened in disbelief, wishing that a flower would appear on that smiling face, to be playing a scoundrel and not admitting it, and even set her a trap!But she couldn't refute it!She was so angry that she turned her back, let out a mouthful of foul air, and squeezed out two words between her teeth after a while: "Despicable!"

She scolded Xu Xian for being shameless today, and now she bestows on Xiao Qing for being mean, these two mean and shameless people are a perfect match.She, a good girl who is neither mean nor shameless, but also kind and innocent, really shouldn't be dragged into this muddy water.

"Susu," Cen Biqing stretched out his hand to pat her on the shoulder, he might as well be slapped away by her, but his active show of softness ended up like this, his face suddenly became displeased, and when he called "Susu" again, his tone had already dropped, There is a faint pressure of two points.

Susu flinched, she naturally didn't know what he was thinking, she just felt that he was inexplicable today, and she herself was also inexplicable, she actually got angry over these trivial matters, and after careful consideration, maybe it was really like what Xiaoqing said that day. In other words, although they whitewashed peace, they never had any trust at all.She was angry not because he hid a small problem from her, but because of grievances. Why should she be persecuted by that old woman, Queen Mother Xi?Why should he be threatened by that kid Lan Qing riding on his head?Why should he be attacked by the carp spirit from Wangyue Pond?Why do you want to live in fear and seduce Xu Xian, who is so hard-working?Why would you want to fight against a cold-blooded snake demon in this completely unfamiliar place?Even though they were suspicious of each other, they still pretended to be sisters?She, Russell, is so fucking aggrieved and useless!Still angry, she looked at Cen Biqing's frowning brows and sneered, and said with a sneer: "Miss Xiaoqing, if you can't stand kissing, we'd better keep a distance, so as not to be misunderstood!"

Cen Biqing's face turned black immediately, staring at her every word and saying: "Who told you that I am a woman?"

Susu didn't hear the words clearly, a group of children in hair bun under the weeping willows ran past bluffing holding paper lotus lanterns, there was a lot of noise, Susu suddenly woke up, what a god!what is she doing?A small fuse can cause such a big resentment, if it really offends her current parents, how can she feel it!Thinking of this, Susu had a quick idea, pointed to the child under the tree and said "Hey" in disbelief, then turned her head and asked Cen Biqing nonchalantly, "Do you still put lights on in July and a half?"

Xiaoqing was noncommittal, but her face recovered a bit.

"Xiao Qing, let's go and have a look!" Su Su breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at him pleadingly, her eyes were foggy, like an abandoned puppy.

Cen Biqing was so angry and funny, he never thought that this guy would be so shameless, he just got angry with her just now, and even said such nonsense, he could change his face in the blink of an eye?As if nothing had happened.Is he too fussy, or is she too careless?What's more, he never imagined that he, the majestic master of the aquarium, would really vent his anger against her. This kind of patience is indeed not as good as before!With a dark sigh, he still held Susu's hand and said, "Follow me."
