The Queen of Soul was indeed right; when night fell, the small town lit up with brilliant lights.
Long dragon-shaped lanterns hover high on the building, staggeringly illuminating the entire city; plump and cheerful handmade red and white goldfish lanterns swim along the slide rails under the eaves, looking like lakes under the starry night.
A hazy dream.
Walking in the small town, even the puppet master's face was reflected by the lantern. The improvement was that the child did not cry when he saw him, but wherever he went, there was still a large space.
There were a few people throwing lanterns in the distance. Lin Sanjiu wanted to get closer, but it seemed as if people moved away as soon as they saw the dark clouds - for a long time, they couldn't get closer.
*
Bohemia and Lin Sanjiu whispered to each other for a while.
"Here, try this," Lin Sanjiu said, holding a bunch of candied haws that Bohemia had just bought from the food stall, and handed them to the puppet master. If the other party didn't accept them, it didn't mean that she would be so honest and take her hands back. "Eat.
If you don’t want to eat it, you can take a bite first, just to suit the occasion. We’re here for the Chinese New Year, right? I won’t let you down with the candied haws. Besides…”
"Stop talking."
Her skill continued, and the puppeteer was finally annoyed by her and crushed the candied haws stick - but it didn't matter whether the stick was broken or not, at least she managed to get some rock sugar and hawthorn into it.
*
"What is this?" Half of his face was distorted, and the corners of his eyes were as red as candied haws. "Are you taking revenge on me?"
It turns out that the puppet master doesn’t like sour food, Lin Sanjiu thought to herself.
*
"If he refuses to finish eating, I guess it won't be effective." Bohemia whispered, "Let's split up. You take care of the children while we go play."
It sounds like a husband who refuses to take responsibility.
*
I don’t know how I walked, but I was walking anyway, and when I turned around, everyone had almost dispersed, and behind me was Ji Shanqing, who was following me eagerly.
"Why are there so many people, and they are all evolutionaries!" Lin Sanjiu complained, stretching his neck, trying to find a few familiar ones from the back of his head that looked like mountains and seas. "There are people who came to participate in the New Year celebration like us.
Are there many people? Is this place famous?”
"Of course," a passing evolutionist said, "You are the only one who can come to such an important event? I have my knife ready."
*
Lin Sanjiu stared blankly at the man's retreating figure and asked towards the gift bag: "Did he just say that the 'knives' are all ready?"
Libao opened his mouth and thought for a while. "Sister, how about we inquire about the situation?"
*
Before they could find anyone who could ask, a "Woohoo!" floated overhead. Lin Sanjiu looked up and saw Yuan Xiangxi lying on a huge eagle kite, shouting to the crowd below: "
How’s the New Year, friends?”
Many heads in the crowd raised their heads in anticipation.
When the Yuan floated to the west, the two evolvers looked at each other and complained: "What's going on? It just passed like this? With those words, I thought there was a show."
*
The gift bag found two very friendly local girls. As soon as the conversation started, they were warmly welcomed by each other and bathed in the shining eyes of the stars.
"Come and see," a girl waved in the distance. "This child looks amazing! He is so beautiful. Do you think he is particularly suitable for the fifth blessing message?"
"That's right," a group of people came out of nowhere and surrounded Ji Shanqing in admiration, "It's so beautiful, kid, you can't waste your talent. Come on, there is an event that requires you to be the face..."
*
"Sister?" Before the gift bag was pulled away, she turned around and called out shakily.
"Go ahead," Lin Sanjiu encouraged him, "just break into the interior and inquire about the situation."
*
If she could ask for information if she was good-looking, she would have quite a few on hand.
*
I really wanted to know who was coming; within a few minutes, a sedan passed by me. A blonde beauty was lazily leaning on the sedan; a pair of thin feet with curved arches rested on the soft cushions, like carefully placed gems.
.
Lin Sanjiu looked stupidly at Pina next to the sedan, who was happily following the great witch. After a while, she was setting off fireworks for her, and in the blink of an eye, she merged into the crowd.
*
"The first celebration is about to begin!" A broadcast sounded from somewhere, repeatedly announcing with background music: "Please don't move around and try to stay in place..."
The news of the gift package hadn't come yet, so Lin Sanjiu just walked slowly in the general direction he was going; at this time, he happened to be at a crossroads and stopped along with the crowd of people around him.
*
"What is the first celebration?" she turned around and asked.
"Exorcise evil spirits, bring luck and blessings," said a very enthusiastic eldest sister, "Of course the first activity is to exorcise evil spirits."
*
This is good. She has never seen a folk celebration up close. This will take a long time——
*
Before the word "knowledge" left his mind, Lin Sanjiu saw an eagle kite flying far away in the air.
Yuan Xiangxi held on to the eagle kite tightly, but the string had long been broken. A strong wind came from unknown sources and swept him away, leaving a long string of "ahhhhhh" in mid-air -
—It was almost as if he had been struck by a [shining ding in the sky].
*
Lin Sanjiu opened her mouth and thought, that's right, why are ghosts not evil?
*
The next second, a dark and slender figure was thrown into the air; when she saw it clearly, her mind froze.
*
The New Year's Ceremony was so powerful that even the puppet master was raised from the ground.
However, a puppet master is a puppet master after all, and he is different from Yuan Xiangxi, who is light and airy and uses his whole existence to make fun. He resisted the force and fell straight to the ground. He only heard a loud noise and the ground moved quickly.
, several buildings seemed to be made of flour, and they were smashed to the ground one after another. The crowd immediately began to scream and run away. If the announcement had not been made to persuade people not to move, a stampede would have occurred on the spot.
Well, I didn’t expect that the source of the stampede incident was not Sbaan.
*
"Hey, I seem to have accidentally driven away a few participants," the broadcaster said without thinking, "Let's continue, continue."
*
Lin Sanjiu stood in the crowd and looked at the thick black, water-like and mist-like flows emerging from under his feet; they seemed to be very thick and thick, and they were reluctantly squeezed by some force.
What came out merged with the "black water" at the feet of others, and gurgled behind them, and no one knew where it went.
"Ah, everyone feels much more relaxed after the exorcism," the elder sister next to me exclaimed. "It's so comfortable and refreshing."
So...is it a fortune massage?
*
After a while, Lin Sanjiu found many other things in the "black water": dead mice, cigarette butts, a cry, a motionless little man with no facial features, and... the stripped-out Queen of Souls.
*
"I'm so angry." The big meat bug hung on Lin Sanjiu's arm. After finally getting out of the "black water", his mouth was already strong again. "What the hell, I am a queen, and I can't get what I deserve."
respect!"
"Why did you take off your clothes?" Lin Sanjiu asked.
"Do you think I'm willing to take it off?" The Soul Queen was very unhappy. "As soon as the evil spirits were exorcised, Skin and I would be separated. We couldn't resist it at all."
Okay, at this moment, there is probably an empty body bag written in a gift package floating in the black water somewhere.
"The celebration was recommended by you, how come you don't know its content?"
The big meatworm was silent for a while.
"Hey, it seems that the luck is about to start," it said nonchalantly, and while Lin Sanjiu was distracted, it slid onto the clean floor - this activity of exorcism seems to be able to clean the floor. "Hurry up, get ready.
, luck is coming, hurry up and catch it, don't worry about me."
I will catch whatever I want?
*
Lin Sanjiu was stunned, and then heard the announcement on the radio: "Congratulations to this year's participants. With everyone's participation, cooperation and unremitting calls, this celebration has successfully attracted a lot of good luck!"
The crowd burst into thunderous cheers, and the evolvers beside them began to push and shove, moving away from each other and clearing some distance between each other.
"Please be prepared for arrest, a lot of good luck is about to come, three——"
The crowd joined in the countdown: "Two——"
When the word "one" was counted, Lin Sanjiu's vision was suddenly illuminated. Countless lights flashed, and the rainbow with its long tail trailed all over the sky, roaring down from the dark sky, and a dazzling meteor shower lit up between the sky and the earth.
This time I didn’t forget to change the extra chapter into a free chapter! Logically speaking, this chapter was supposed to be released on New Year’s Eve, but who knows what happened, unknowingly, ah, it’s the second day of the new year... Okay?
, if I don’t finish writing this Spring Festival episode quickly, the Spring Festival will be over...
Good news: the new book has been increased from 10,000 words to 1,500 words, and the release of the book is just around the corner. What does "just around the corner" mean? The ancients pointed to the sun and waited, describing the meaning of waiting as long as the sun.
