84, Chapter 84 (1/2)

What Sister Lizi brought was a pile of snacks. When Yuan Yuanyuan came over to take a look, she was stunned by the mess of snacks and didn't understand what types they were.

Basically, they are pastries made into flower shapes... Each pastry looks delicious, just like those messy pastries written in ancient novels. Yuan Yuanyuan was related to eating when she read Dream of Red Mansions. I read parts of it back and forth more than ten times.

Oh...look at that, the transparent skin is shaped like lotus petals, it looks delicious.

Before Yuan Yuanyuan could finish reading, Sister Lizi stuffed a piece into her mouth. She was so moved that she burst into tears. She deeply realized how cruel a poor person must face to survive in this world. , for example... can't eat delicious food.

"Where did you buy this?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked, wondering if she could save up money to eat once a month...

"I didn't buy this, this was... brought from home. I just went back to my hometown." Sister Lizi said, "It will be Siqun's birthday in a few days. This was his favorite food when he was a child. I went home this time. When I saw there were still some left, I brought a bunch back.”

Yuan Yuanyuan's chewing movements gradually slowed down, and the four groups hiding in the wine jar were attracted by the smell. As soon as the box was opened, the room was filled with the fragrance of flowers, and the four groups swayed out of the wine jar. He walked out, then carefully took the box, sat in the corner and started to open the box...

"When is your birthday?" Yuan Yuanyuan came to Siqun's side and reached out to take a piece from the box to eat. "I don't know when you were born."

"Next week," the four groups whispered.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the back of Siqun's furry head and asked, "How do you usually celebrate your birthday? By the way, do you actually celebrate your birthday..."

The four groups stuffed food into their mouths and whispered in reply to Yuan Yuanyuan's words, "Eat, eat noodles..."

"Longevity noodles?"

"Also, I still want to eat eggs..."

He and Yuan Yuanyuan finished a box of food in one night.

When leaving in the morning, Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the four groups and suddenly said: "It is now popular among humans to celebrate birthdays in another way. I will bring you something else on your birthday. "

The four groups looked at Yuan Yuanyuan, and Yuan Yuanyuan felt inexplicably that his eyes were sparkling...

"Sweet, do you like to eat sweet things?" Yuan Yuanyuan was a little creeped out by his stare. She thought to herself that there was a newly opened cake shop downstairs. This month's promotion was discounted, and she had just received her salary, which was almost the same. I can buy a cheaper fruit cake...

The four groups nodded fiercely.

Yuan Yuanyuan silently helped him stabilize his head like a chicken pecking at rice, and then rushed out of the door...

It always felt like...the four groups became particularly excited as soon as they said the words "bring something".

…

The next day, Yuan Yuanyuan went on a location shoot with Xiaoying and the others next door. Li Xin has not seen Yuan Yuanyuan since that time when Yuan Yuanyuan was stripped of her waistcoat. Yuan Yuanyuan originally thought that she had scared her, but who knew that Li Xin seemed to be well-adjusted when they met again? good.

The three of them arrived at a nearby park, which is usually a place where old men and women exercise or walk their dogs. There is a lake there with a small wooden pavilion and a promenade in the center of the lake. Many people usually go there. They took photos there, and they planned to go there this time.

When Yuan Yuanyuan knelt down to help Li Xin put on the clothes she bought from the tavern, Xiaoying looked at the clothes and felt novel for a while. She touched the clothes and kept saying: "This is a monster." Did you wear it?”

"Yes, I've washed it for you, don't worry." Yuan Yuanyuan put the clothes on Li Xin.

When they arrived at the pavilion, they were dumbfounded.

I don't know when there was a group of old men and women singing in the pavilion. Everyone was wearing Peking Opera clothes. The old man had a beard, and the old woman had her eyebrows drawn and hair on her hair. They actually looked pretty good-looking.

The three of them stood outside, stupidly blowing the cold wind for a while. Finally, Yuan Yuanyuan said: "So where are those people who sing Qin Opera with big speakers? Qin Opera has never done Peking Opera?"

"...Wait a moment, it's time, it will be over in an hour at most." Li Xin said, so the three of them sat blankly outside the pavilion, looking over there.

Yuan Yuanyuan gradually fell into a daze as she looked at the old men and women singing Peking Opera. Although she couldn't understand what the show was, she actually found it interesting and even took it in.

What was on the stage seemed to be a story about a woman who married a heartless man, and then the woman was sad and shed tears.

The pronunciation in Peking Opera is very strange, and many of the words are not the ones used in daily life, so Yuan Yuanyuan couldn't understand them very well. She just looked at the aunt who was singing and made up stories in her heart.

For example, this woman once made a vow of eternal love with a man... For example, the man never looked back after becoming famous...

When Yuan Yuanyuan was thinking blindly, she suddenly heard Li Xin next to her whisper, "Sister Yuanyuan, please be careful lately."

"Ah?" Yuan Yuanyuan didn't hear clearly and asked again.

"I mean, be careful." Li Xin repeated it helplessly, she said, "I think something big is going to happen to you monsters recently..."

Yuan Yuanyuan saw Xiaoying tugging Li Xin quietly, and Li Xin glared at Xiaoying.

"Ahem." Yuan Yuanyuan pretended to clear her throat. She looked at Li Xin and said, "Why do you say that?"

"Aren't all the things that happened in "Monster Chronicles" true?" Li Xin said, "Since it is true, its nature is different from the random drawings... I read the second volume, and the cartoonist seems to want to If you want to do something big, I think your demon world may be in chaos in a few years... no, a year. You need to find a more stable partner first."

"How can you tell?" Yuan Yuanyuan became interested and looked at Li Xin and asked.

"The cartoonist named Jiqiu...the purpose of drawing this comic is not simple. I always feel that his purpose is not pure...it seems to be to settle old scores. Since the second volume came out, this feeling has become completely subtle. I feel He wants to include the personal goods in the comics," Li Xin said.

Yuan Yuanyuan said in her heart, she actually felt the same way...

If she hadn't known that there really wasn't a monster or person named "Jiu Qiu" during the war, she would have doubted that this Jiuqiu was an old-timer who had participated in the war. It seems that he is familiar with what happened back then.

Yuanyuan was originally an ant surviving in the center of the storm, so it was useless to think about it so much now. It's not decadence, it's really useless. She has figured it out herself. Just from the fact that she has never seen the true face of Ji Qiu so far, and people even know her daily life clearly, it can be known that she has no Can't play with others.

However, Yuan Yuanyuan still wanted to ask what other people thought, especially those who were not involved and had big ideas. She leaned back and asked, "Then tell me...whose thigh should I hug?"

"It must be Faning. There's no need to ask. But there's no need to rush to hug my thigh... It's just that you have appeared in the comics, and many people still remember it. What if you are in trouble again one day? Do it?" Li Xin said.

"You mean if you fuck me again, I'll hug Faning's thigh quickly... That makes sense." Yuan Yuanyuan nodded.

Li Xin's thoughts were exactly the same as hers. They were the thoughts that a die-hard comic fan should have who follows the natural development of comics...

"What about...Yuan? Why don't you hug Yuan's thigh?" Xiaoying suddenly asked.

Yuan Yuanyuan saw Li Xin pinch Xiaoying again, and she cleared her throat again in embarrassment...

Li Xin turned his head, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said, "That Yuan...Actually, Xiaoying and I originally thought it was pretty good, but now we are a little hesitant after watching the plot..."

Yuan Yuanyuan waited for her to continue.

Li Xin thought for a while, as if she was organizing her words. After organizing for a while, she suddenly raised her finger and pointed at the old man and woman singing in the pavilion opposite, and said, "That person...how should I put it, feels a little out of touch. "

"I feel like he will save the monsters he likes, but he won't take care of the monsters he doesn't like. But sometimes he won't take care of the monsters he likes, and he will take care of the monsters he doesn't like... eh , do I sound crazy when I say that?”

"A bit...but isn't this good?" Yuan Yuanyuan complained softly.

"This is a pretty crazy monster, but he has met me and Xiaoying once or twice, and I can't say anything bad about him against my will... Wasn't he painted in the comics before as a spy by singing opera?" Li Xin said, "Singing opera He seems to be ruthless, and he looks different on stage and off. After all, he has to play a different person every day, plus he has also been a spy. If he really took it seriously in private, it would be meaningless..."

The opera singers in the pavilion had stopped. The aunt who played the role of the bitter girl and the uncle who played the role of the heartless man changed their clothes. The two of them walked together lovingly. It turned out that they were an old couple singing opera.

"An actor who can be a spy chief must be a scary monster with a strong psychological quality... Although I think he is really good to the young lady. This person may be controlled by the young lady, so you can also consider this person. Sister Yuanyuan, you have the temperament of a royal sister and a dork, you will definitely conquer him." Li Xin patted Yuan Yuanyuan on the shoulder, very sincerely.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the two old men and women walking together, and she felt a little dazed.

"You are saying this as if there is no actor in the world who can be more sincere. At least consider the diversity of species in China." Yuan Yuanyuan said.

"Actors are meaningless. This sentence was passed down from the old man. I don't believe that there are good actors who are sincere and still alive in this world. This is just like saying that Xiaoying and I spend our days together and can still do well in studies. Fundamentally, It's contradictory. Look at how miserable Comrade Dieyi is. If he was as smart as Youyuan, he wouldn't be so miserable, right?" Li Xin said.

Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the pavilion and thought, but he is indeed in a miserable state.

... She stood up and followed Li Xin and Xiaoying to the pavilion, suddenly feeling suffocated again.

In fact, the people and monsters in comics are not acting, and they have a lot of words that they cannot say.

Yuan Yuanyuan felt that she was quite hypocritical. For example, she did not dare to say "Yuan = her".

She could tell anything that was hidden in her heart, but not this matter. This matter would be rotten in her bones and taken to hell.

…

Friday of the second week was a rainy morning.

When Yuan Yuanyuan got up, she thought that today was Siqun's birthday. When she went downstairs, she ordered a fruit cake and brought it to Siqun when she was about to go to work.

On this day, the sky in City C was particularly gloomy, thundering all the time, and finally the sky turned red.

Yuan Yuanyuan, who was sleeping at home, covered her ears with a pillow. She was completely in a daze and didn't feel the small hidden mirror on her chest vibrating at all.

This...she stayed up all night again last night, and now she even dreams about a bunch of witchcraft terms...

"Why is it so noisy outside today?" When Sister Lizi walked out, she heard how noisy it was outside. As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the sound of "da da da da" coming from behind her. When she looked back, she was surrounded by four people. The group of bright eyes were startled...

"Brother, what are you doing?" Sister Lizi yelled.

"I, I want to go out and take a look." The four groups said brightly.

"Go, go..." Sister Lizi stammered.

She looked at the four groups of farting figures and wondered what was going on? Why are the four groups so excited today?

Four groups of people rushed to the front of the pub. He heard last week that Yuan Yuanyuan was going to give him a birthday surprise, so he waited for a full week... He got up early this morning and changed into new clothes. Then he moved a small bench and sat in the back kitchen to wait.

When he arrived at the hall, he saw groups of young ladies in beautiful clothes standing in the middle of the hall. Everyone was dressed up, and the scene looked particularly grand.

These ladies didn't move, just stood quietly, and monsters came over from time to time. Gradually, almost all the taverns were pouring wine in front of them and lighting incense.

The four groups watched this scene and were silent for a minute...

Then, he suddenly became excited, his eyes shining brightly.

Is this about gathering together to celebrate?

Could it be...this is my birthday gift!

Suddenly there was a loud roar from the front, "Everyone kneel down! Don't get up, stay still!"

There was a scream in the hall, and all the young ladies knelt down with their heads in their hands. The whole scene suddenly became weird.

…

Yuan Yuanyuan got up in a daze, picked up the small mirror and took a look. She was stunned. There were hundreds of messages on it.

"Lord Yuan! An outside monster has now broken into City C! We learned that their leader is a white snake monster. Now this group of monsters is roaming around the city wantonly. We ask for your help!"

…

A white snake suddenly appeared at the front,

He looked at all the monsters in front of him who had knelt down, and continued to shout, "Are there any more? If there are any more, call them all out!"

The four groups standing in the dark corner behind looked at the long white snake and were silent for two seconds.

His eyes were hidden under his bangs, casting a shadow, making it impossible to see his expression, and his mouth was pursed like a sharp blade.

…

After half a minute, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes so bright and scary...

So long, so long, so long... a noodle!

Could it be...this is my birthday gift!

"...Who is that monster over there? His expression is so disgusting." A bitch next to White Snake said.

"Catch him here!" White Snake gave the order, and a few little monsters tied up four groups and came over.

Four groups were brought over with bright faces.

Yes, come to the front!

Could it be...this is my birthday gift!

Then, the white snake looked at the four groups and thought it was really annoying, so he swallowed him in one gulp.

The four groups looked at the white snake's big mouth with bright faces.

Could it be...this is my birthday gift!

…

"Holy shit, what's going on? Why is it so scary down there?" Yuan Yuanyuan was lying on the roof, carrying a discounted fruit cake downstairs and trying her best to look down.

When she saw the white snake swallowing four groups, it froze into a statue on the roof...
