no trouble

"Bang bang bang!" The play on the stage was coming to an end, Yin Wuhuo took the lead to end his part, looked around as soon as he got off the stage, and immediately found the target.

I saw Jiu'er sitting on the box looking in the direction of the stage, his eyes were blank, his brows were tightly knit, he didn't look like he was watching a play, but there was an inexplicable aura surrounding him All around, Yin Wuhuo felt strange about her at this moment, completely different from the chattering girl yesterday, her gloomy temperament looked more like a real painted skin ghost.

"Hey, why are you in a daze?" Yin Wuhuo didn't like this feeling very much, so he hurriedly stepped forward to interrupt Jiu'er's daze.

Jiu'er looked up at him, smiled a little forcedly, and left without saying anything, her thin back looked a little lonely.

The play on the stage was not over yet, Yin Wuhuo stood where he was.He was a little uncertain, but the resentment on Jiu'er seemed to have intensified a little bit?

......

Jiu'er wandered on the road in a daze, the memories that suddenly popped up in her mind turned the world upside down, and the revolving door scene shook her very irritatedly, but she still couldn't help but want to continue watching.She doesn't remember anything anymore, how can she give up now that she finally has a chance to remember something?

Even if she was really sad, so what, it was better to be sad than to know nothing.

Covering her head in pain, Jiu'er sat directly on the road, bent her legs and gritted her teeth to endure.

"Ha ha......"

Not far away, a piece of water-red smoke floated by, fleeting, as soft as if it had never appeared before.

On the yellow wooden table was a faded net and several brocade ropes of different colors.

Fingers like water onions fluttered, and after a while, a short piece of brocade rope turned into a beautiful pattern, carefully stringing a clear bead into it and making a slipknot.

At this time, it was snowing again outside.

The snowflakes fell profusely, Jiu'er looked up, the sky was overcast outside, snowflakes of different sizes fell endlessly, the road outside had been blocked, and the boy said that there was no snow on the street People's calves are on the ground, and the snow sweepers in the city have nowhere to set their feet, let alone outside the city.

The net in her hand was unwrapped, and then unwrapped, repeated several times, but Zhan Wan still didn't come back.Not only did he not come back, but there was no news at all!

It was agreed to get married after the new year, but now it is close to the end of the year, but there is no sign of anyone.He also said that he would come back soon, hum!big liar.

Jiu'er was furious, and stretched out his hand to untie the net that was about to be tied, his brows and eyes were full of tangles.

It was all due to the heavy snow that blocked the road, and Zhan Lang couldn't come back.

Yes, it was all the fault of the heavy snow, Zhan Lang would not be willing to let her wait for so long!

"Ninth girl, it's time to eat."

The servants carried the food box into the house, and brought one or two snowflakes with them, which quickly turned into water when they fell on the ground.

Open the food box, there is only a bowl of porridge and two side dishes inside.

Jiu'er sighed.

I heard from Dad that there was a drought this summer, God didn’t rain a single drop, and all the food in the fields died, and now there is a snowstorm, everyone has nothing to eat and it’s so cold, I really don’t know if I will die again this winter how many people.

I drank the porridge one mouthful after another. Although the porridge was not full, it was good to eat something, and there was nothing to be picky about.

Just as Jiu'er had finished eating, she heard a commotion outside, the faint sound of porcelain breaking.The door was pushed open, and a servant barged in. Snowflakes mixed with cold wind poured into the room, washing away all the heat in the room. Jiu'er was startled, and subconsciously pinched the old net on the table.

"Miss Nine is in trouble, foreigners have come in, the city gate has been broken, run away!"

"Why run away, why panic!" The snow on the threshold was trampled flat, the middle-aged man walked in, scolded the servant, then pulled Jiu'er to the bedside, pointed at the bottom of the bed, and said : "Jiu'er, quickly hide in."

Jiu'er got in obediently, and when she lowered her head, she realized that there was a hidden compartment on the floor under the bed, "Father, this..."

"Stop talking, just hide in, remember, no matter what happens, you are not allowed to come out!" The man stretched out his hand and rubbed his daughter's head, his face was full of emotions that Jiu'er couldn't understand.

The moment the big hands left, a pair of small hands grabbed him, "Father!" The fear in her heart was constantly magnified, and her eyes were full of pleading and puzzlement as she held her father's hand.

"Pa-ta." The little hand was thrown away, the man closed the dark compartment himself, a ray of light fell in through the cracks in the floor, Jiu'er saw his father sealed the bottom of the bed, and also saw the reluctance on his father's face.

The last ray of light was blocked, and the world fell into darkness.

The sound of footsteps faded away, her heartbeat gradually accelerated, her breathing became difficult, and tears also fell down with big drops.

It's scary in here, too dark, too quiet!

It feels like being abandoned by the whole world.

Jiu'er started to want to go out, but she thought of her father's words - "No matter what happens, don't come out!"

She closed her eyes heavily, tears were squeezed out of her eye sockets, she took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, her heartbeat began to calm down slowly.Jiu'er curled up and let herself get acquainted with the darkness.

Time passed bit by bit, and I don't know when it started, it became very noisy outside.She could even vaguely hear screams and cries and unknown laughter outside.

A smug-sounding laugh.

After another period of time, there was continuous whining in the abdomen.She pursed her lips, the corners of her lips were accidentally dry and cracked, the bloody smell irritated the tip of her tongue, and the belly rumbling grew louder.

Suddenly, the crunching sound of boots stepping into the snowdrift came from outside, Jiu'er slightly moved his already stiff body, and stared at the direction outside with his eyes open, but there were footsteps in the dark hole, more than one person.

She opened her mouth, wanting to shout out, "I'm here!"

The hoarse voice let out a silent cry, the influx of air choked the words she wanted to say, she swallowed the little saliva left, her tongue scratched the roof of the palate, causing a pain, and at the same time, a sentence she could not understand fell to the ground. into the ear.

This is not Chinese!

Her eyes widened, her hands tightly clutching the net.

"Crunch! Boom!" Someone lay down on her bed, and shoes touched the wooden boards blocking the bottom of the bed.

Jiu'er's heart was lifted in an instant, who is the person outside?

I don't know how long it took, but the people outside finally disappeared.Jiu'er heaved a sigh of relief, the wooden board blocking the bottom of the bed was suddenly opened, the dazzling light fell on her face through the cracks in the floor, and at the same time grabbed her heart.

"Thump, boom..."

Her heart beat faster and faster, a foot wearing leather boots landed in front of her eyes to block the light, and a malicious smiling face appeared in front of her eyes, the face of the foreigner was full of excitement and disdain.

The secret compartment was opened, and the moment her arm was grabbed, Jiu'er felt like her heart was about to burst.The joy of seeing the light again mixed with unknown horrors stimulated her fragile nerves.The foreigner's palm ruthlessly restrained everything about her with its scorching temperature and inescapable strength, and she began to struggle and resist.

The clothes on her body were torn apart, falling like a butterfly with broken wings in front of her eyes, her long black hair was roughly torn off, her snow-white skin was stained purple, yellow liquid fell on her skin, carrying a stench and heat, mixed with her tears into the floor.

Pain, nausea, and sudden blows.

Jiu'er was lying on the ground, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes.

Dad...Zhan Lang...

Why don't you come and save me?

The hair was pulled, and the woman was pulled out of the house like a piece of rag.Ice and snow wrapped her body like a plain white skirt.

A few foreigners got together and murmured, and they didn't know what they were talking about. They set up a big pot and boiled the snow water.A machete fell on the body, and the thin limbs quickly became torn apart, and the monstrous pain suddenly penetrated into the mind. The eyes that were originally empty and lifeless were blinked a few times due to the pain. Jiu'er opened his mouth wide and made a little sound. Can't send it out.

The ice and snow under his body were melted by the blood, the huge machete fell on his body one after another, and the laughter of the foreigner came to his ears again.

It was a smug laugh...

The last tear fell from the socket of her eye, and she watched in despair as they threw her body into the boiling water. There was a smell of raw meat being scalded, and Jiu'er stared and died.

"Ho! Ho! Ho!"

The road was filled with water-red smoke at some point, Jiu'er squatted on the ground with her head in her arms and was panting violently, the tip of her nose and forehead were covered with sweat, tears slid down her cheeks, and wet the plain white skirt.

Jiu'er raised his head calmly, his originally beautiful face became extremely ugly at this moment, large chunks of skin fell off, revealing dark green mixed with brown flesh, they wriggled and knelt together, extremely disgusting .

"Ah ha ha..." Hysterical laughter overflowed from the depths of her throat, Jiu'er looked at the skin on her body that had been festered and murmured to herself: "I was originally a Painted Skin Ghost~"

A life-threatening flower that bloomed in despair and rotting bones after being bullied, humiliated and tortured.

The smoke had dissipated, she stood up, her original snow-white skirts turned into water red, and with a flick of her sleeves, her terrifying face became beautiful and charming.

The corners of her lips curled up in satisfaction, and Jiu'er slowly disappeared on the road.

"Hey......"

Not far away, in a corner that cannot be illuminated by the street lights, a sky blue belt flashed past.

The third day, the third scene, a ghost show.

As the name suggests, it is a play specially performed for ghosts.

Early in the morning, Yin Wuhuo was pulled out of the bed by Uncle Jiu, "Boy, your house is running over, why don't you go and have a look."

Opening his eyes in a daze, Yin Wuhuo was a little dazed, his family ran over?It's normal, why all the fuss?

Yawning, he was dragged out by Uncle Jiu before he even had time to wash up.

As soon as he went out, he understood everything.

The boy Huai Tian was standing at the door of the shop with Qian Luo, looking at Huai Jiu with a half-smile.

Yin Wuhuo was also very speechless. He glanced at Uncle Jiu and walked straight to the second floor of his home. He hasn't washed yet, so it would be more convenient to go back to his own home to wash.

"Why are you here?" He asked with a toothbrush in his mouth.

"The little girl asked me to come, maybe because she thinks you are unreliable." Huai Tian opened the curtains and sat on the bed, her slender legs crossed together, her beautiful fingers crossed in her belly, her eyes squinted, beautiful It's like a painting.

Gee.

Yin Wuhuo turned his head and continued brushing his teeth.He hates this kind of person who can shine no matter where he is.

"I saw it the other day." He wiped his face, rubbed the towel, "I still have the costume you wore before." It seems that Uncle Nine probably didn't let anyone else touch it.

"Oh."

Huai Tian bowed his head, his fluffy hair drooped down, which just hid his emotions.

"Go away after washing your face, don't get in my eyes here."

"You don't want to see it?"

"Why?" Looking up, he sneered, "Could it be that you still want to help me steal that costume?"

"Okay, anyway, with you here, the old man won't do anything to me. Right, Xiao Tiantian~" After changing his clothes, Yin Wuhuo jumped down from the second floor before Huaitian got mad, "I Now that I'm gone, Qianluo will ask you to take care of her."

Night fell quickly.

The third scene, the opening.

Unlike the previous two games, this time there was really no one in the audience.Everyone in the town knew what today's play meant, so they didn't go out. Even if they really passed by the stage, they would never glance at it.

It was rare for Yin Wuhuo to hang his throat seriously for a long time.Huai Jiu nodded in satisfaction, but ignored the small package hidden behind Yin Wuhuo.

When the show officially started, the gongs and drums were beating together, the sound was extremely lively, but the audience was deserted... No, it should be said that the audience was even more lively on the pen table, but ordinary people couldn't see it.

Huai Tian leaned his head on the window sill and looked at the stage.Suddenly, a water-red shadow came into view.

The woman's footsteps were slow, and the water-red skirt moved automatically without wind. She was obviously just walking on the road in an ordinary way, but she looked very charming and charming.

Huai Tian's expression changed all of a sudden, it was clearly a resentful ghost!

I saw her slowly approaching the stage, and the little ghosts who were still listening to the play all scattered away when they saw her, and she was the only one left around the lively stage.

Yin Wuhuo's movements suddenly paused, and he looked at the woman in the audience in disbelief.

She is glamorous and charming, but she is not the Jiu'er he is familiar with.

With a slight smile on her face, she stood under the stage and listened quietly. She obviously didn't do anything, but it made people feel cold to the bone for no reason.

After Yin Wuhuo stepped down from the stage, he ran out immediately, but there was nothing under the empty stage.

"Uncle Jiu, I'm going out for a while!"

Changing his clothes in a hurry, Yin Wuhuo ran out carrying a package without even taking off his makeup.

There were only pedestrians in twos and threes on the street, Yin Wuhuo searched around but couldn't find Jiu'er, so in desperation he simply found the inside of the Town God's Temple.

The temple is very quiet, not even a gatekeeper.

Yin Wuhuo walked in quickly to drink two cans of beer and escape, but when his fingertips just touched the beer, a pale hand stopped him.

"It's not your thing to take."

The man's voice was dull, and Yin Wuhuo glanced up, and found that the man was wearing a Ming-made Jinyiwei flying fish suit, and was holding an embroidered spring knife in his arms, with a blood-stained blue net tied on the handle. son.

Looking at it, it should be the Yin soldiers guarding the Chenghuang Temple.

Yin Wuhuo made a laugh, tilted his head and said, "You care about me?"

The man didn't speak, but the Xiuchun knife in his arms was already out of its sheath, and a small section of the blade was glowing coldly, and it seemed that he was about to strike directly.

He was overjoyed, it was the first time he saw such a stubborn guy in the Temple of the City God, he was ready to strike at the slightest disagreement.

"Hey, I said. You can't drink this wine here, and the City God is not short of these two drinks, so why do you care about me? Turn a blind eye and close your eyes and everyone will be happy."

The man still didn't speak, he slowly closed Yin Wuhuo's hand and was about to make a move when someone spoke.

"Zhan Wan, you just let him go."

It was the voice of Chenghuang.

Zhan Wan took a look at Yin Wuhuo, then took a step back with his hands clasped in fists.

What a strange person.He shook his head, took two more cans of beer and swaggered out, but didn't realize that Zhan Wan was always watching his back.

After returning home, Huai Tian unceremoniously took away a can of beer, opened it, and took a sip without paying attention to the foam that came out of the bottle.

"Do you know that Painted Skin Ghost?" Huai Tian didn't miss the strangeness between Yin Wuhuo and Jiu'er.

"There's something wrong with her now." Yin Wuhuo directly acquiesced to Huai Tian's words, "I want to find out what's going on, and I may need your cooperation."

Huai Tian stopped drinking in an instant, and after a while he laughed and cursed: "You really know how to call people."

Yin Wuhuo couldn't deny it, and threw the package he had been carrying on Huai Tian's body, revealing a set of pink Huadan costumes.

"Sing it for me."

Huai Tian: "..."

Damn, this kid really stole his costume!

It was already late at night, and a single light suddenly lit up on the pitch-black stage.

A white shadow appeared under the light, he raised his head, and the cold white light fell on his graceful neck.With her eyes closed, her red lips were slightly raised, and she had an orchid finger on her hand.

There is a tone that seems to be absent.

"...The spring outside the window is warm and gentle, holding green snails to outline her brows, she hums an untitled short song, if this freeze frame can last for a hundred years... the lights are fading like meteors falling, Shaoguang The fleeting years are put on the shelf, she counts them in the cold night and laughs foolishly, drinking together in the Ming Dynasty according to the new words Liuxia."

Slowly lowered his head, then raised his head, two lines of tears flowed down, dyed the rouge on his cheeks, turned slowly, his plain white dress drew an arc in the air, he squatted down slowly, his sad and melodious voice was silent In the middle of the night, it seemed more and more empty, "He no longer remembers leaving pen and ink, she still cried and murmured in her dream, the end of the memory was like white paper dyed ink, it suddenly dawned on him that he owed her a promise..."

"Pedestrians said that the sky was full of peach blossoms, and they lingered for a few times and refused to let go..." He stood up abruptly, opened his belt with his fingers, and the plain white dress fell down, revealing a gorgeous pink dress, "Jin Jin Whether the spark is too hot, the yellow flowers will bloom tomorrow..."

"In the past ten years, the dream of a boudoir in spring has been fulfilled. Why did the jade lose the fragrance? But the jade lost the fragrance..."

The tassels all over her body swayed non-stop, and her voice was melodious with vicissitudes, as if every word could bleed.After the last line was sung, Huai Tian sat down on the ground decadently. At the same time, the lights went out and everything sank into darkness.
