【ABO】Forbidden Feather

The annual Yulan Festival is a day blessed by the heavenly official, more than auspicious and blessed by heaven.There is also the custom of the Oriental Ghost Festival, which came across the ocean and merged with the Chinese civilization of the human race. Monks and Taoists often set up a dojo for lonely souls on the day of the Yulan Festival. Six realms of suffering.

However, in Chang'an City, Yulan Shenghui has another name, which is called "River Lantern Ghost Face Festival".Because of this day, the moat was filled with colored paper to make lotus-shaped water and drought lanterns, and the candlelight all the way was like a galaxy, leading the way for the newly dead to Naihe Bridge; Distributing fruit cakes and masks of ghosts, monks on the lotus pedestal reciting mantras and mantras, and mages by the bonfire leading the crowd to dance in pot dances to send off the dead ancestors.

Among the crowds, a woman in a water-blue skirt with light gauze on her face and a belt around her waist, holding a trembling red-eyed white fur rabbit in her arms, eagerly squeezed into the crowd: "Ah! Ling, come and see! What kind of novelty is this?"

"Whose family's daughter is this, so unruly?" A passer-by pointed at her and smiled.

The woman in blue smiled and glanced at passers-by, and looked bright: "I tell you the rules of my family, what does it have to do with you?"

Her voice was crisp and lively, like a warbler's cry, which made others blush when she heard it.The man in Tsing Yi who was following her chased up, blocked everyone's sight, and reprimanded in a deep voice: "You run slower! You are jumping up and down like a monkey spirit in the mountains."

"This is Chang'an! It's not the wild mountain in the backyard." The woman in blue touched the rabbit's head in her arms and said with high spirits, "It's the first time my parents allowed me to visit the world when I grew up. Ling, you don't know fun, you insist on following me to be an annoying sable tail. Why, are you afraid that I will get lost?"

Ling Yu said seriously: "Of course I am afraid that you will get lost."

The woman in blue raised her chin and said in disbelief, "If I really lost it, I can fly home by myself, and I don't need you to guide me."

Ling Yu: "What are you talking about? You didn't spread your wings until you became an incarnation, and you are the only one in the clan. When I was seven years old..."

"Slightly slightly, what's so great about your long hair growing early?" The woman in blue snorted, "I've heard you brag hundreds of times, and the whole clan has heard you brag hundreds of times! Tell me, you Have you broken the precept of self-praise?"

"Even if I broke the precept, I can't change the fact that you just spread your wings at the age of 15..."

"Then you admit it!" The woman in blue interrupted him, and said on her own, "Then I will punish you for Dad, and I will punish you not to speak again tonight, you are annoying."

Ling Yu had no choice but to see the woman in blue stare blankly at him with rounded eyes, and screamed, "Ah, snake!" The mortal in the mask then heaved a sigh of relief.In the realm of the human race, there are no real ghosts and ghosts. Those monsters are sealed behind the Tianyu Gate in Huaisang Mountain, and they have been guarded by the Yi tribe for more than [-] years.Occasionally, a little demon would come out of the cracks in the ground, and they would be immediately sealed back to the door.

When Liu Yu was young, he ran into a Candle Yin Basilisk that escaped from a crack in the ground, and was bitten.If it wasn't for the fact that the Yi tribe's physique was exceptionally invulnerable to all poisons, they would have died on the spot.Afterwards, Liu Yu was afraid of the basilisk snake spirit, even the non-poisonous and harmless snakes in the world would stay away.

Being frightened by Zhuyin's mask, if Liu Yu's naughty friends knew about it, they would be ridiculed for a long time.Ling Yu turned her head, and was about to make fun of Liu Yu, when she found that the water-blue shirt had disappeared: "Liu'er!"

However, the streets were crowded with people, and his anxious call merged into the sound wave, and then fell silent.

Liu Yu hugged the rabbit and squeezed into the crowd, and when he turned around and saw the shadow of Zhu Yin, he was relieved calmly.She walked around all the way, especially squeezed into crowded places, completely forgetting about her followers.Walking to a stall for buying masks, Liu Yu saw Zhuyin's mask again, and with a "Yeah", she backed up half a step, and bumped into someone's arms.

The rabbit in her arms was frightened, jumped up, landed briskly and fled away.

"I'm sorry!" Liu Yu hurriedly apologized, but out of the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of the man's blue cloth sleeve, embroidered with the same pattern as Ling Yu's cuff.Looking carefully, this person's height is also very similar to Ling Yu's, except that he wears a wooden tengu mask on his face, "Ah! Why did you secretly buy something behind my back? I want to buy it too!"

There was a sneer in the mask.The man also in Tsing Yi turned around and was about to leave, but his cuffs were pulled: "Hey! Where are you going? The money bag is still on you."

As Liu Yu was talking, he dragged the man to the front of the stall without any explanation, pointed at the assortment of ghost masks and said, "Look carefully, which one looks better?"

The man didn't say anything, just looked down at Liu Yu's eyes, and didn't try to withdraw his hand anymore.He came to Chang'an on this trip, not to mention the hardships and dangers along the way, but he was very tired of the intrigues and humiliations in the court a few days ago.At this time, the pair of beautiful eyes looking at him, although unruly and willful, are bright and clear, different from any pair of eyes he has seen before, as if they can wash away all the dirty and raging waves in the world.

Thinking about it, she must be a beauty under the veil.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Liu Yu thought that Ling Yu was angry, so she coaxed: "I didn't let you speak just now to anger you on purpose, don't take it seriously."

However, the man in Tsing Yi still refused to speak.Just because other people's official language is not good, once he speaks, he will inevitably reveal his identity as a foreigner, so he has to suppress his voice.Stared at by his pair of deep black eyes, Liu Yu vaguely realized that something was wrong, her mind seemed to be sucked into those deep eyes.She coughed lightly, let go of the man's sleeve with a flick of her hand, and said loudly: "Since you don't want to talk, just pay the money obediently."

The man suddenly reached out and took a Shuten-douji mask from the shelf.

"Do you like this?" Liu Yu took the mask, thinking to herself that luckily she didn't choose that scary candle shade mask for her, it seems that Ling Yu wasn't really angry.

The man nodded, pulled her closer, and put on the mask for her with his own hands.The tip of Liu Yu's nose was pressed against the man's chest, and the passers-by around her came and went, but those powerful arms seemed to separate another world for her, blocking the noise outside, so that she could only hear each other's heartbeat .

For a long time, Liu Yu believed that Ling Yu would be the one to marry him in the future, because Ling Yu treated her like no one else.But at this time, facing the man wearing the mask of a tengu, Liu Yu suddenly felt his heart beating faster, and suddenly remembered those meaningful poems in the picture book of the world, "The body has no colorful phoenix and wings, but the heart has a clear understanding."

It's just that for the man in Tsing Yi, it is "only because I feel that you look back and make me think about the morning and evening of you".

Liu Yu touched his own mask, then touched the man's Tengu mask, and murmured: "Ah Ling, why do I think you are different?"

The man took her hand and shook his head silently.Liu Yu held his hand instead, and pushed out of the crowd: "Come on, I'll take you to set off the river lantern, okay? After you set off the river lantern, you won't be allowed to get angry with me again!"

She spoke anxiously, and turned her head hastily, trying to cover up the drunken blush on her face, but forgot that she was also wearing a mask.But the man pulled her back, stretched his long arms around her shoulders, covered her whole body in his arms, and refused to let passers-by touch the corner of her clothes.

Liu Yu was embraced by him and walked a few steps before she came back to her senses and said with a blushing face, "You really are not normal today." After a pause, she added, "But I like you like this, more men than usual .”

Although she and Ling Yu grew up together, they spent far more time fighting and fighting than being warm.What's more, Liu Yu has just turned 15 years old, and it has not yet reached the day when the Yi tribe will become an incarnation, and there is no gender distinction.She gets along with Ling Yu on weekdays, and never treats Ling Yu as a man.Today, being embraced by Ling Yu and surrounded by his arms, it suddenly dawned on him that he is so tall and powerful, and he is really a man who can be relied on.

The day of her incarnation is near.When the time comes, make a wish to the gods, become a woman, and stay with Lingyu for the rest of her life smoothly, so father and mother can rest assured.

Liu Yu knew that Ling Yu liked her, otherwise how could he bear her pretentious and indulgent temper?But now, she secretly raised her head to look at the eyes in the Tengu mask, suddenly became uncertain, and called out tremblingly: "Ah Ling?"

Still no answer.Liu Yu lamented, sure enough, is he angry?

The two walked to the riverside, thousands of trees were covered with red paper, and there were lantern riddles written on them. The old man under the tree was piled up with river lanterns and candle wicks. .The man in Tsing Yi reached out to take out his purse, but Liu Yu grabbed his arm: "You wait, you don't need to spend money."

As she spoke, she looked at the red paper that had fallen between the branches and leaves.Many of the knots in the lower places are empty, obviously they have been guessed correctly, Liu Yu can only look up at the riddles in the upper places with difficulty, squinting his eyes to read word by word: "Paper phoenix, type an idiom... ...It's hard to fly with wings, it's hard to fly with wings!"

It's a pity that the red paper was too high, and Liu Yu couldn't reach it even with his arms stretched out, so he could only beg the man beside him, "Quick, take that piece of paper down!"

As soon as the words fell, she suddenly felt a pair of hands land on her waist, and then she lightened her feet, and she was hugged!

"You..." Liuyu was tongue-tied, she grabbed the red note with her hand, but couldn't move it.

The man in Tsing Yi never expected to be able to lift her up so easily. The woman in blue was indeed much lighter than ordinary people, she fell in his palm like a feather, light and beautiful.He also forgot for a moment that he had to hide his voice, and asked in a low voice, "Have you got it?"

Liu Yu only felt that the voice was not right, but the noise in his ear was too noisy, so he just thought it was an illusion, and tore off the red note: "I got it...you, let me down quickly. "

The man in Tsing Yi dropped his arms, Liu Yu supported his shoulders, and his feet finally touched the ground.She lowered her head, took a peek at the man through her eyelashes, and then ran to the old man selling river lanterns: "Hi old man, I guessed it right, it's hard to fly with wings, right?"

The old man squinted his eyes, but he didn't look at the red paper. Instead, he raised his head and glanced at the man in Tsing Yi who was standing with his hands behind his back, and sighed: "Yes, it's the words "It's hard to fly with wings."

Behind the Tengu mask, the man's heroic eyebrows frowned, vaguely that the old man meant something.But Liu Yu couldn't hear it, and excitedly said: "Then can I change a lamp with you?"

The old man turned his eyes to look at her again, and said with a smile: "Young master is smart and cute, I'll give you one, and give you another lamp, okay?"

Liu Yu thanked him, took the lamp from him, and gave one to the man in Tsing Yi.The two walked towards the river bank, and Liu Yu noticed that the people around him were still looking back at the old man who sold the river lamp, so he couldn't help laughing and said, "I don't think this old man's eyes are very good. I am obviously a woman, but he calls me What young master?"

The man in Tsing Yi pointed to Shuten-douji's mask.Suddenly, Liu Yu took off the mask and stuffed it into the man's arms as usual: "But I'm still wearing a skirt, but I'm a real woman."

By the river bank in twos and threes, there are many ordinary people kneeling to pray to their ancestors and save the dead.The man in Tsing Yi also knelt down and sent the lamp on the river, silently thinking about those who were buried in the same robes on the battlefield. I wonder if the gods of this human race can also surpass the aliens who died in battle outside the Great Wall?

But Liu Yu had no one to commemorate.She grew up in peace and prosperity since she was a child. The patriarch and her parents took good care of her. She has never experienced life or death. The most remarkable injury was bitten by a snake spirit.This trip to Chang'an, the capital of the human race, is just a quick look, and I don't know much about the customs of the Obon Festival.Seeing the people clasping their hands together and kneeling on the bank of the river to make a wish, with pious and sincere faces, she thought that they were making a wish, so she also knelt down like a tiger and made a solemn wish.

After making a wish, Liu Yu saw that the man in Tsing Yi beside him had stood up, grabbed his cuff and stood up as well, asking: "What wish did you make, let me hear it?"

The man in Tsing Yi shook his head again, and Liu Yu said dissatisfiedly: "Are you really planning to keep silent all night? Cheapskate." She rolled her eyes and smiled again, "Then let me tell you what I promised Wish. You must be happy to hear this, and you will forgive me!"

She wanted to speak anxiously, but she was afraid that she would be underestimated, so she timidly grabbed the man's wrist in Tsing Yi, as if she wanted to hold his pulse: "I...I will tell the gods that I like you, and ask the gods to take me away in the future." To marry you and be your wife. Would you like to?"
