lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the rebirth actress!
The young man in a blue riding attire took the flag, flew off his horse, and landed on the ground. It was amazingly smooth.
The owner of the racecourse is not a stingy person. He only handed the purple jade whip to Xiao Jue's hands, and exclaimed: "My son is a good man. In recent years, you are the fastest person to get the flag. !"
Cui Yuezhi couldn't help but squeeze his palm, "Huanqing, before you arrived, you heard that your adoptive father had found you a master martial artist. Now it seems that the master martial artist taught you with his heart. Yes. Such skill, even if placed in Jiyang City, it is rare."
Xiao Jue nodded and smiled: "Uncle praised."
He Yan said in his heart, that Cui Yuezhi still didn't know that Xiao Jue had just come out, but he still kept it. If you really open up to fight, I'm afraid it will shock everyone's teeth and expose your identity.
She was thinking, Xiao Jue had already walked over and threw the purple jade whip into her arms.
He Yan was flattered: "Thanks...thank you."
I always feel that Xiao Jue today is very different. It seems to be very easy to talk, and has a very good heart.
But he couldn't think of a name, so He Yan shook his head.
"Now I have the purple jade whip." Aunt Wei smiled and said, "Why don't you go to the festival by the river? Being bathed in divine water, you will be blessed by Fukuzawa all year round in the coming year."
Cui Yue patted his head: "Yes, I almost forgot this. Huanqing, Yuyan, you all go, and beg for a good omen! How can it be possible that the water **** does not come to the water **** festival." /
What is the water **** sacrificial ceremony? He Yan was confused, but he was so kind, so he followed the crowd to the other side of the canal. When I walked to the neighborhood, I saw a large flat area near the canal, and a round platform was built with many masked people singing and dancing on it. Probably the folk songs of Jiyang, the tune is very cheerful, there are men, women and children, very lively.
Just standing still, I heard a woman's voice: "Master Cui."
A few people looked over and saw the lady in the Dianyi Mansion, Ling Xiu, who had been a guest in Cui Mansion a few days ago and had played the piano to everyone. Next to her, stood Yan Min'er, looking over with ill-intentioned eyes.
Ling Xiu is also dressed up today, wearing a pink corset dress and boots worn by a Jiyang woman, and her long hair is also tied with a whip, tender and playful for a few days. She smiled and said: "It was a coincidence that Min'er and I met Master Cui as soon as I arrived here. It's a fate."
Cui Yuezhi also laughed: "Axiu, Min'er, where are your parents?"
"My father and mother are both on the boat. Min'er and I are walking here with the servants and guards. We want to see the sacrifice and take some offerings back." Her eyes fell on Xiao Jue, Xiao Jue only Looking in the direction of the ceremonial stand, without even looking at him, Ling Xiu passed a trace of yin in his heart.
Actually, she and Yan Min'er saw Xiao Jue, not here, they saw it just when they were winning the wind on the racecourse. The young man is as plump as the moon, stunning, grabbing the banner and chuckles, and it is immediately reflected in people's hearts. It is difficult to teach people to forget. However, such a man, who is so popular in front of everyone, is just to win that woman a whip that she likes.
Ling Xiu was extremely jealous.
She was born good-looking, talented, and she is also a golden branch. How many young talents in Jiyang city admire her, but she can't look down on any of them. It happened that one day such a person came and brought all the people in the city. It was a pity that he was a married man, and he was so kind to his indifferent wife. If at first it was just angry that Xiao Jue ignored her, after several times, Ling Xiu and He Yan also hated it.
If there wasn't that Wen Yuyan, if it was him who met Qiao Huanqing first... it would not end like this at all. What's so good about that woman? Qiao Huanqing was so blinded by lard that he mistakenly used fish eyes for pearls.
He Yan was looking at the dancing and singing people on the stage enthusiastically, and asked Aunt Wei: "Why do they wear masks?"
"A mask represents an identity. These are legendary stories related to the water god. Dancing and singing at the ceremony is actually conveying the legend of the water god." Aunt Wei Niang smiled: "If Miss Yuyan likes it, so You can dance together on the stage and play one of the roles. When it is over, the elders will dip the blessing water with wicker and sprinkle it on everyone. If you take the blessing water, you will be very happy."
He Yan had never heard of such folk customs, so he said: "It's weird and interesting."
Ling embroidered forward and smiled: "Does Mrs. Joe want to be on stage together?"
He Yan waved his hand: "I'm just talking."
"Min'er and I also want to go on stage to dance together. If the wife is willing to go together, it will be very lively." She stared at He Yan, smiling softly and considerately, but for some reason, He Yan was instinctive. resist. In fact, she is not very proficient in the relationship and undercurrents between women, and can even be regarded as careless, but ordinary hostility and friendliness can probably be distinguished.
Ling Xiu has an unconcealable hostility towards her. Why, He Yan thought left and right, and there was nothing to offend this girl.
"You are the same age," Cui Yuezhi said with a smile: "Yuyan will follow along with us. Our Jiyang water **** ritual is very simple and not difficult. If there is something you don't understand, let Axiuhe Min'er will teach you together."
Cui Yuezhi has already said that, He Yan refused again, seeming to disrespect Jiyang's folk customs, and said: "Okay, then. But I can't jump, don't laugh at me."
"No." Ling Xiutian said: "We will teach you." After that, he took Yan Min'er to Guangtai: "Let's get the mask first."
He Yan bit his scalp and sighed, that's all, even though Ling Xiu and Yan Min'er are hostile to her, they are not capable of martial arts, nor do they want to do anything to her, nothing more than innocence. Little joke. Be clever, but it's actually nothing.
She thought, and heard someone next to her speak: "Why don't you refuse?"
He Yan was surprised and turned her head to look. Xiao Jue's gaze fell on her face. He couldn't see the expression, and said lightly, "I don't like it, why don't you refuse?"
"Not good," He Yan hesitated, "If you refuse, Master Cui may be unhappy."
He laughed, seeming to disagree with He Yan's approach, and said: "If you don't like it, refuse. You have the ability to refuse, Miss He," he reminded, "You can't let everyone All happy."
That's the case, but...
Try to make everyone happy and achieve Consummation. It seems that it has become a habit.
On the other end, Yan Miner pulled Ling Xiu aside and whispered: "What do you mean? Who is going to dance with her? It's too late for me to bother her! I'm not going!"
"Wait," Ling Xiu grabbed her, "Listen to me."
"What did you say?"
"I've heard people tell me about the things at Embroidery Workshop before."
Yan Miner's face flushed immediately when she heard the words, choked for a moment, and said: "How do you know!"
"Now this matter, who doesn't know, it has spread long ago." Ling Xiu smiled and looked at her, "Don't worry, of course I am on your side. Besides, I don't I like that Wen Yuyan, so how can she make her feel better?"
"What do you want to do?" Yan Miner said irritably.
"Isn't this dancing? I don't want to let her show off. It's better to let her make a fool of myself." Ling Xiu smiled and pointed to the mask on one side. "Let her ask for trouble, our Jiyang girl, not so Good bully."
……
"I have never seen a lady dancing," Lin Shuanghe shook his fan, pointing out, "I am really looking forward to having such an opportunity today."
He Yan said in his heart, she doesn't know how to dance, she dances a sword at best, but she is a foreigner, even if she dances at the ceremonial ceremony, others are just too harsh, as long as she can't make a big mistake. It's just a lively picture together.
I was thinking, Ling Xiu and Yan Min'er had already arrived, Yan Min'er was holding a few masks in his hand, and Ling Xiu was holding a wooden box. When he walked to He Yan, Ling Xiu's face was embarrassed and said, "I just asked the priest. There are many people who come to the ceremony today, only these masks are left. I don't know how to distribute it. Why not decide by drawing lots? "
Isn't it just a mask? He Yan didn't care too much, so he asked, "What is the difference?"
"Different masks represent different roles. In the myths and legends of the water **** of Jiyang, there are also some traitorous actors and clowns..." Ling Xiu paused, and then smiled, "but it is possible that Mrs. Not big, it shouldn't be."
He Yan gave an "um" and said modestly: "You guys smoke first."
"Madam is not from Jiyang, so let's smoke first." Ling Xiu smiled.
It doesn’t make sense to decline this kind of thing, so He Yan said: “Okay.” Then, he reached into the wooden box Ling Xiu was holding and pulled out a stack of paper. Come on.
She opened the note and looked at it, and saw that it said "Lie".
"What does raccoon lie... mean?" she asked hesitantly.
One of Cui Yue was stunned, and Aunt Wei was also a little surprised, but Ling Xiu covered his mouth and exclaimed, "It was a liar, madam today... it's really unfortunate."
"Is this bad?" He Yan was inexplicable.
"As I just said, in the myths and legends of the water **** of Jiyang, there are many traitors, clowns, and raccoons. This is a liar full of lies. He does a lot of evil by the water in the world and deceives the wealth of many people. , Even the elderly and children are not let go. The most shameless things in the world have been done by him. The gods in the sky can't stand it, so they send a fairy under the water **** to subdue him. This liar can be full of lies in front of others. But facing the immortal and immortal law, he can only tell the truth in his belly. He told the ten secrets of himself, and finally he was imprisoned by the immortal in the underwater jail, and he could not go ashore forever."
He Yan listened, unconsciously substituting himself in, and when he heard that Eternal Life could not go ashore, he couldn't help saying: "It's miserable."
"It's quite miserable." Yan Miner said with a chuckle, "But since you have already drawn the paper lottery, you can only act as a liar. If you have decided to sacrifice to the God of Water but you regret it halfway, you will suffer To the water **** to punish."
He Yan wanted to ask how the God of Water would punish her, but after another thought, didn't he just die in the water in the previous life? I don't know if it was a coincidence.
She said: "The harlequin is the harlequin. In this world, there is always someone to play the harlequin, right?"
Cui Yuezhi still hesitated: "But Yuyan, that mask..."
"What happened to the mask?"
Ling Xiu took the mask from Yan Min'er and handed it to He Yan: "This is the mask of a liar."
He Yan saw the appearance of the mask, and then he understood why Cui Yuezhi had that expression. The raccoon mask looks like a civet cat or a particularly ugly civet cat. The painting is fierce, but in the center of the eyes and nose, it is painted a lot of white. It looks both treacherous and ugly, so it must be a girl. I don't want to wear such a thing on my face. What's more, this mask is still very heavy and heavy.
He Yan weighed in: "It's okay."
She has never paid much attention to these appearances. Aunt Wei’s face is not very good-looking. In the past few days, she has been with He Yan. She only feels that He Yan has a gentle and cheerful temperament, and treats others kindly. Others can’t understand it. It's clear. This is clearly Ling Xiu deliberately stinging He Yan.
Think about it, pretending to be a harlequin in front of your sweetheart, and performing all kinds of ridiculous actions, not to mention what others think, just a woman will feel ashamed and embarrassed. Which woman in the world does not want to be as stunning as Xi Shi Diaochan in the eyes of a lover?
Aunt Wei said: "How can I make Miss Yuyan play a clown, so I can't tell Si Li?"
"Nothing." He Yan said with a smile: "In a sacrifice, sincerity is the spirit. There is no need to care about the minutiae."
Cui Yuezhi didn't notice that the atmosphere was wrong, and when He Yan said so, he smiled and said, "Okay! Yuyan is really hearty!"
Lin Shuanghe and Xiao Jue on the other side frowned at the same time.
Lin Shuanghe covered his face with a fan and whispered to Xiao Jue: "The culprit of Lanyan, you have caused my sister He to suffer."
Xiao Jue's face was cold, he glanced at him, and then he was silent, and suddenly said: "You just said that the secret of the raccoon lies, you want to confide in the fairy."
Ling Xiu saw Xiao Jue take the initiative to talk to him, he was delighted, and said with a smile: "Yes. After the madam goes to the ceremony stage, she will tell her ten secrets with the immortal." After a pause, Ling Xiu smiled and continued: "And these ten secrets must all be true secrets. Because in the legend, when the liar, full of lies, faces a fairy, he is controlled by the fairy law and has to confide the truth. Madam. When introducing you, you have to tell you ten secrets."
He Yan was speechless, suspecting that this fairy is actually a lunatic who likes to spy on the secrets of others.
"The gods also have role-playing roles," Xiao Jue's eyes lightly passed over Ling Xiu, "In that case, I will come."
"What...?" Ling Xiu was stunned.
He Yan was also stunned.
"Don't understand?" The man has sharp eyes, although his tone is calm, but his expression is indifferent, "I want to act as a listener."
He Yan almost didn't choke to death by his own saliva. What Xiao Jue meant was to go to the ceremony stage and dance together? He Yan couldn't understand whether Xiao Jue was crazy or this world was crazy. Second Young Master Xiao would do this kind of thing, and no one in Shuojing would believe it!
Chiwu and Feinu couldn't believe their eyes, they suspected that there was a problem with their ears, and they had misheard them.
Xiao Jue took the initiative to raise this matter. Ling Xiu didn't expect that he didn't know what to do for a while, but the man's eyes were too cold, which made her a little scared, and subconsciously said: "Why... why?"
"Because," Xiao Jue said with a faint smile: "How can my wife's secret be known to others."
Only one sentence made Ling Xiu's face turn blue, who was still a little frightened.
He Yan: "..."
She almost fainted, but she felt that Xiao Jue was really not like Xiao Jue today, which was inexplicable.
Xiao Jue didn't care what He Yan looked like, and only asked Ling Xiu: "Which mask is it?"
Ling Xiu pointed to the one in Yan Min'er's hand. Yan Min'er was a little afraid of Xiao Jue, and immediately handed it over. He Yan glanced at it. This fairy mask was nothing special, it was just a piece of black half-iron, and then dotted a cloud pattern on the center of his forehead.
"How to do it?" he asked.
Aunt Wei saw the doorway and smiled: "Actually, there are not so many rules for dancing on the altar. If you are a local, you know it naturally, but if you are a foreigner, you only need to be sincere, pray for the **** of water, and dance. Whatever it becomes is just a form. The goddess of water is very tolerant and does not care about trivial matters."
Xiao Jue: "I understand."
He glanced at He Yan, and saw that He Yan was still holding the mask and holding her wrist: "Come here."
Walking two steps to the sacrificial platform, He Yan looked back and saw that Ling Xiu and Yan Min'er's eyes fell on him, the hostility was more than just before. She asked: "What's the matter with you? Governor, are you crazy?"
"You are crazy." Xiao Jue said displeased: "Why did you promise her?"
"I won't say anything, it's all here, I'm afraid Master Cui is unhappy. Besides, I just dance with a mask without using a knife or stick. A lot of meat, what's the big deal."
He turned his head to stare at He Yan, and laughed ironically: "When you were to me, why didn't you see you so obediently?"
He Yan: "...Am I not so obedient enough?"
Xiao Jue is too difficult to serve!
"In the future, if you don't want to do this kind of thing, you can refuse." Xiao Jue's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly: "Don't make people think that you are too ugly to be complacent."
"I didn't compromise on everything."
"You have." He lowered his eyes to look at He Yan, his mouth twitched slightly, with mockery, "You like to lie, don't you even lie to yourself?"
He Yan couldn't speak, she instinctively wanted to refute, but faintly felt that Xiao Jue's words were right.
But in many cases, it has become a habit to sacrifice one's feelings and preferences. There are more and more important things to consider. No one can tell her that you can refuse, you can be willful, and you can be unhappy.
So gradually, these are gone.
Seeing He Yan's listless look, Xiao Jue paused, knocked her on the head, and said, "Hurry up." As he said, he took the mask in his hand and put it on his face.
The mask is made of iron and polished very smoothly, but it is still very heavy. Xiao Jue puts the mask on his face with one hand, and with the other hand goes to the back of his head to buckle the mechanism. It was not right for a while, see He Yan. So he put aside the "lie" in his hand and said: "I'll help you."
She walked behind Xiao Jue and said to Xiao Jue: "You put the mask on to a suitable position, and I will help you buckle it from behind."
Xiao Jue is tall, and she can only stand on tiptoe to buckle the top of the head, while buckling and saying: "Have you never worn a mask before? It's not that simple."
Xiao Jue mocked: "Have you worn a lot?"
He Yan was startled and smiled: "I haven't eaten pork, I have always seen pigs running." After she helped Xiao Jue put it on, she also put the "lie" on her face.
Two people, one wearing a mask, looks even more mysterious and noble, the other is funny and treacherous, and looks ridiculous.
Xiao Jue took her and went to the altar together. Si Li nodded slightly to them and pushed them towards the center of the ceremony stand.
People wearing masks were all around singing and dancing. He Yan couldn't understand, and said to Xiao Jue: "Supervisor, how do you dance?"
Xiao Jue: "I don't know."
He Yan learned to dance around for a while, but after a while, he felt it was too difficult and gave up. She took Xiao Jue to the corner of the ceremony stand, where it was not noticed, and said: "Forget it, don't jump, do something else."
Xiao Jue wears a mask and can't see clearly, but I want to know that the face under the mask must be full of impatient at this moment.
"The Governor, if we do this perfunctory, we won't be blamed by the God of Water?"
Xiao Jue said: "Are you afraid?"
"I would rather trust it if you don't trust it or not."
This person is very indifferent: "Then you continue to dance."
"I really can't jump."
After a while, He Yan said: "The governor... Just now, the girl Ling said that the liar needs to tell ten secrets to the fairy. Now that we are here, we will act to the end. I will tell you my ten. A secret. That’s it. Maybe the fairy sees us so pious and doesn’t care if we don’t dance."
Xiao Jue smiled and lazily said: "Okay, you say it."
Ten secrets must all be true. This is really hard to say.
She broke her fingers and said.
"I used to drink well, but now it's getting worse."
"I will memorize "The Art of War by Wu Zi"."
"I am the first in Liangzhou Wei."
"I especially want to enter the Jiuqi Camp."
"I grabbed the buttons of Cheng Lisu's clothes and they can be sold for money."
There are five of them. Xiao Jue heard it and felt quite speechless. He only said: "boring."
He Yan was encouraged and continued to work hard.
"The Governor is a very nice person in my heart. I am very grateful to the Governor."
Xiao Jue sneered: "I won't let you enter the Jiuqi Camp."
"Every time the Governor misunderstands me, I feel sad!"
Xiao Jue: "Continue to cheat."
"The governor and I have a fate in the last life!"
Xiao Jue didn't even bother to give her a look.
He Yan: "I was a female general in my previous life."
This is even more outrageous.
There is only one last secret left.
He Yan raised his head and looked at the person in front of him. His face was covered by a mask, staring straight at her, only showing a beautiful chin, with beautiful lines, thin and gorgeous lips, lazily hooked. It shows the ruthlessness and tenderness of the youth.
Her own face is also covered by a mask, hidden in the dark, such as in the dark night, with an infinite sense of security.
"The last secret," He Yan stepped his feet, leaned close to his chin, and said softly, "I like the moon."
"The moon doesn't know."
