After hearing what he said, Bai Xin and Xiao Yan both had a thoughtful look on their faces. This was the first time they had heard of such a thing as a ghost market, and they both wanted to go and see it.
Only Ye Taotao was lying in Bai Xin's arms, her little chubby hands tightly grasping Bai Xin's collar, her little face full of nervousness.
"Daddy, the ghost market...are there many ghosts?"
She is really afraid of ghosts oooooo~~
"Are Taotao scared?" Boxin stretched out his hand and patted the little monster's back gently, comforting him, "If Taotao is scared, we won't go."
Although I am really interested in the ghost market, how can the ghost market be as important as the little monsters?
Since they didn't plan to go to the ghost market, the three of them turned around and left without buying any lights.
When the person setting up the stall saw this, his face showed a bit of disappointment.
He thought that after he explained, even if the little girl didn't go, the two adults would not be able to help but buy two lamps to have a look. After all, the ghost market only appeared once a year, so it was good to see something new.
There are too many people waiting for the ghost market to appear in the market. They are so crowded that even walking is a bit difficult.
Bai Xin was afraid that Ye Taotao would get lost, so he kept holding her in his arms.
However, Ye Taotao felt a little embarrassed. She lay on Bai Xin's shoulder and said in his ear: "Baba, you have been holding Taotao. Are you tired?"
Bai Xin couldn't help but smile. He was also a foundation-building monk after all. How much was Ye Taotao? How could he be tired?
"Papa is not tired, and Taotao is not heavy at all." Bai Xin said.
Ye Taotao was afraid that he would be tired. She saw a place selling snacks in front of her and said immediately: "Daddy, let's go over there and eat delicious food!"
At this moment, a burst of noise suddenly came from the crowd.
"Right there! Get that kid!"
"You bastard, you dare to steal my aunt's things?"
"Chase! Catch him!"
The already crowded crowd became more and more chaotic. A boy about seven or eight years old took advantage of his short stature and scurried back and forth in the crowd, as nimble as a loach.
After a while, the figure rushed past Bai Xin.
Before Ye Taotao could recover, a small lamp was suddenly inserted into her arms. At the same time, a clear voice sounded: "Help me put it away for a while."
"Ah?" The little girl's mouth was slightly open, her face was dull, she obviously didn't react, and her whole person was a little dull.
Ye Taotao held a small lamp in both hands and turned around to look for the person who put the lamp into her hand in the crowd, but there was no trace of him.
Suddenly, the candle flame in the center of the small lamp in his hand jumped, instantly changing from warm orange to an eerie dark green.
At the same time, Ye Taotao "piaji" fell from the air and sat on her butt.
"...Papa?"
Everything around was covered by thick fog. Ye Taotao sat on the ground blankly, her scarlet eyes widened, and she called Bai Xin softly.
It was quiet all around, no sound at all.
She was clearly in Bai Xin's arms just now, but why did she suddenly appear alone in the fog? Bai Xin and Xiao Yan seemed to have disappeared as well.
Ye Taotao couldn't help but shiver. Looking at the small lamp in her hand that suddenly turned green, she felt a chill rising from her back.
Could it be that you have hit a ghost?
No~~~~
The hair on Ye Taotao's body stood on end, her face turned pale with fright, and her hands holding the small lamp began to tremble involuntarily.
She felt that maybe she should throw away the lamp. The green light was too scary. But if she really lost the lamp, what would she use for lighting? Wouldn't it be even scarier if it was pitch black?
It's all that little thief's fault, why did he put the lamp into his hand?!
Ye Taotao sat on the same spot, not daring to move. She looked at the small lamp in her hand aggrievedly, wanting to throw it away, but she didn't dare to throw it away. She almost cried with anger.
She whispered to herself to comfort herself: "How about I just wait where I am, daddy and brother will definitely come back to find me."
The idea was naturally beautiful, but after she waited for a few minutes, the sound of blowing and suona came from the depths of the mist.
The hazy red light loomed in the mist, getting closer and closer.
Finally, a wedding procession covered in red makeup walked out of the mist and appeared in front of Ye Taotao.
Ye Taotao: "!!!"
In the dead of night, with the mist rolling in, a strange wedding team suddenly appears, asking you if you are afraid?
Anyway, Ye Taotao was stunned, sitting on the ground in shock, her legs were weak.
The sedan team stopped in front of Ye Taotao, and a soft female voice came from the sedan: "Why did it stop?"
"Empress, a little girl fell in front and blocked the road."
The soft female voice said: "She fell down? I'm afraid she came to participate in the ghost market. Go up and take a look. She is seriously injured."
"yes!"
A little maid, with her face painted pale and her cheeks smeared with red rouge, jumped up to Ye Taotao.
"Little girl, are you okay? Does it hurt from the fall? Why are you alone, and where are your adults?" She asked a lot of questions in a high-pitched and thin voice.
Ye Taotao looked at the face that stood in front of her, as if it were stuck in paper. She couldn't hear what she asked her, and she was holding her little arms and shivering.
"No, don't eat me!"
Woohoo~~ It’s so scary, she wants to go home!!!
The little maid scratched her head with a confused look on her face and muttered in a low voice: "Eat you? My Majesty doesn't eat people."
Ye Taotao only heard her say the word "eating people", and her eyes immediately filled with moisture, and her eyes filled with tears: "I, I don't like food."
The little maid didn't agree very much. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said seriously: "You smell delicious, it should be delicious."
Ye Taotao: "!!!"
Her eyes instantly widened like bells, and her face turned pale. Invisibly, it seemed as if a small cloud of white mist floated out from the center of her head, out of body.
Don't eat me... don't...
His head tilted and he fainted.
In the sedan chair, the soft voice sounded again: "Xiaohong, what's going on?"
The little maid named Xiaohong glanced at Ye Taotao hesitantly, then looked in the direction of the sedan chair and said, "Mother, she seems to have fainted."
Are you fainting from hunger? Otherwise, why did you keep talking about eating just now?
What a pitiful Zaizai. If a person appears here alone, he must have lost his family and doesn't know how to get to the ghost market, so he faints from hunger.
Xiaohong told her thoughts to the empress in the sedan chair. The empress pondered for a long time and finally said: "It's okay. Bring her over and sit in my sedan. I'll take her to the ghost market later."
Xiaohong nodded heavily: "Your Majesty, you are so kind!"
