The atmosphere has become more and more lively, everyone is immersed in a joyful atmosphere, and the flower street is brightly lit.
Hua Rongyue bought him a glass of wine. The man's face looked like he had unfortunately eaten something unclean. Hua Rongyue, who originally wanted to leave immediately, was embarrassed to leave, so she stayed with him specially.
.
For Hua Rongyue, she felt that it didn't matter whether she was on Flower Street today or not, but just in case, she specially dragged the handsome young man under her hand over to serve as a substitute.
In fact, Hua Rongyue felt that as long as she was not allowed to receive the list in front of Jiang Lianhuan, anything would be fine.
It is naturally impossible for Six Doors not to give Hua Rongyue a task tonight, but Hua Rongyue always feels that she is more like a soy sauce worker. The message Six Doors gave her is to be on standby, so Hua Rongyue still has
I brought a small package with a piece of clothing inside.
"If it doesn't work, I'll take you to a medical clinic." Hua Rongyue said, "I know there is a medical clinic nearby, which is quite good."
"No, no, thank you."
While Hua Rongyue was caring here, a burst of noise suddenly came from the street, as if many people had gone to join in the fun. There were figures flashing outside and the sound of children laughing.
Something interesting should have happened outside, but Hua Rongyue was not in the mood to watch it for the time being.
But on this brightly lit flower street, listening to the noisy sounds outside and watching the figures passing by the window one by one, it is also a happy thing.
Hua Rongyue feels that this feeling is very pyrotechnic, and it is a kind of pyrotechnics that is not very close to the real world. It stands on the boundary between reality and illusion, allowing people to shuttle between reality and illusion at any time.
This noisy yet peaceful atmosphere slowly calmed down Hua Rongyue's mood, and also made her gradually forget the uneasiness that arose in her heart just now because of meeting that strange lunatic.
He felt that he had to find an opportunity to leave Hua Rongyue, otherwise he might not be able to hand him the list without hiding his identity when midnight arrived.
However, he couldn't think of any suitable reason for the moment. Although he felt that under this "disguise", the other party should be a person with a very good temper and personality. I'm afraid he wouldn't ask any questions at all if he proposed to leave the other party.
But I was very afraid that after I left, there would be a few people following behind me.
He also took a sip of tea, lowered his throat, and was about to speak when he suddenly saw a figure walking past the window. This figure could be regarded as standing out from the crowd, and his eyes were immediately attracted to him.
That is a very beautiful girl. The noise outside just now was all because of her.
She looked bright red, and she was holding a small red lantern in her hand. She looked like a cute and delicate doll. There were children following her, happily pointing at her and running.
, the girl was not angry when she saw him, she just smiled.
Her face was as rosy as a ripe apple, and she looked healthy and attractive. She was wearing a gorgeous red dress, and a long red bracelet tied around her wrist with complex and delicate knots.
rope.
Hua Rongyue noticed that the person opposite seemed to be staring out the window for a while, wondering if there was anything outside. So she also opened the window here and took a look, but only saw two children.
When he came back to his senses, he glanced at Hua Rongyue opposite him, thinking that the girl who appeared here might be one of his subordinates. Thinking about it this way, the girl just now might also be a lunatic... Think about it this way
It's really a pity that pretty girls these days are so young that they go crazy.
He glanced at Hua Rongyue and said after careful consideration: "Uh... what do you want to do tonight?"
"It should be fine." Hua Rongyue shook her head, "What's wrong?"
It's okay, it shouldn't be... murmuring in his heart, he looked at Hua Rongyue and looked over curiously, cleared his throat quickly and said, "Ahem, how about... let's go for a walk outside again?"
"It's okay to take a stroll..." Hua Rongyue said.
She felt that after staying in Flower Street for so long, she knew almost everything here, so she might not have much interest in it, but for me, this was obviously a novel place, so she might as well just
Go out for a walk.
Seeing Hua Rongyue get up, he breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that it would be easy as long as he went out. When he went out, there would be a hundred ways to find excuses to leave Hua Rongyue.
The two of them went out. It was already dark outside at this moment. Hua Rongyue held up an oil-paper umbrella and held a small lantern given to him by the store.
I don’t know what the purpose of this lantern is, but the store gave it to him for free. Since this thing is free, and the shape is really exquisite, many people will not throw this lantern away.
Circle, you can see many people holding such lanterns in their hands.
"There are a lot of people here today..." I was a bit out of words.
"Yes, there are really many." Hua Rongyue looked around. Today, the Flower Street is fully open, and there are basically no restrictions. Therefore, there are a lot of people coming today.
Everyone who would appear here has appeared.
And...did she look at too many crazy people today? Are there usually so many crazy people around here?
"Speaking of which, this place was built too fast." Hua Rongyue said suddenly while walking.
He didn't want to answer this. He thought with contempt that you built this place yourself, and you still don't know why it was built so fast? Just as he was thinking about it, he heard an old voice coming from the side, "Young man, you
Do you know why this place was built so quickly?”
Hua Rongyue and Hua Rongyue turned their heads at the same time, only to see that the person speaking there was an older woman. The old woman's hair had turned gray and her hands were covered with calluses.
Her eyes were also extremely cloudy. In her hands were some things for weaving bamboo baskets, and she looked like she was working very hard.
The old woman's voice sounded hoarse when she spoke.
After hearing what she said, Hua Rongyue slowly approached the place and asked softly, "I'm not sure...Old lady, can you tell me something?"
The old woman looked like she was in her final years, as if she would collapse at any moment. Her pale hair was blown to pieces in the cold wind, and it seemed like she didn't even have an umbrella on such a rainy day.
It seems that no one with a little sympathy will be indifferent to such an old woman.
There are many customers in the stalls to it, but there is nothing in this old lady’s stall. Maybe it’s because her stall is right at the end of the alley, or maybe because the old lady has bad eyesight and her basket weaving speed is too slow.
.
Apart from Hua Rong Yuehe, there are only a few guests here, and these few guests probably stayed because of how pitiful the mother-in-law was.
A girl who looked young asked curiously, "Mother-in-law, do you know why? There was indeed no such street here two months ago."
The mother-in-law paused in her movements of weaving a flower basket and continued in a hoarse voice, "This place is usually filled with women at night. This is probably the first time there are so many outsiders at night."
The basket in her hand was more than half knitted. Hua Rongyue took a look at it and vaguely felt that this thing did not look like a flower basket, because there was no such small flower basket...
The size of this thing... what does it look like?
Hua Rongyue secretly made a gesture in her heart...
A bit like... the small jar for raising crickets that she had seen before?
So tall, so small...
Well, it's quite similar.
The old woman raised her eyes and glanced at them. A smile appeared on her wrinkled face. She said, "This reminds me of a story... a story from a long time ago."
"Once upon a time, there was a flower street, and all the people living on the street were beautiful women, but few people knew that these women were both human beings and terrifying ghosts."
"When it's dark, they will take out people's hearts and eat them, and then during the day, they will suddenly disappear like shadows."
"The people who are eaten by them will turn into new ghosts and wander around this street again. Everyone will gradually have no way to escape from here."
"These women don't have any other hobbies. Their only hobby may be lanterns, because they can make the night as bright as the day, so the street is full of beautiful women and colorful
lantern."
"On weekdays, no one is allowed to break into this street at night. There is only one exception, and that is when the owner here wants to eat people."
The old woman's voice was particularly deep, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became a bit weird for some reason. The girl who answered the call just now had no voice at all, and only the sound of the wind blowing around her was left.
"That master...only opens his streets to welcome outsiders when he wants to eat people." After saying this, the old woman looked around at the people on their side and continued to slander.
He warned sympathetically, "So, the owner here is very dangerous."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly let out several hoarse and unpleasant laughs. At this moment, the man who had been listening to the story silently suddenly realized something and looked at the feet of the old woman.
This old woman was standing in the water, but her shoes were not wet at all. It was almost like something that only happened in a dream.
He reached out his hand tremblingly and rubbed his eyes, fearing that he had seen wrongly.
"I, let's go over there to buy something first." Someone nearby had already realized that something was wrong. They just found a reason to get away, but they heard the old woman say again: "What's wrong? Are you scared now? You don't want to do it anymore."
Have you heard any other stories?"
"No, no need." The man said as he walked back, but suddenly heard an emotionless voice, "What's ?"
Everyone looked around and saw a very calm face.
That man didn't look like someone who knew martial arts at all, but at this moment it was as if nothing had happened.
