Chapter 22 Clouds and Mist
In today's autumn, the days are much shorter, and the sky is already dark before Xu time.

Fortunately, all the trees on both sides of Changzun Street were hung with lanterns, and the lanterns lit on every stall made the whole long street brightly lit.

A bright moon hangs high in the sky, casting bright radiance on Changzun Street, together with the light of lanterns, illuminating all kinds of masks all over the street.

Under that mask are young faces, the mask will not cover their smiling bright eyes, and the happy smile on their lips.

Wei Ying was wearing men's clothes in black, but on her small face was a woman's bird feather gemstone mask.She walked all the way in the bustling crowd, and when she looked around, she found that, as the mother-in-law who sold masks said, almost all the people hanging out on this street were young men and women. When Wei Ying passed by their side, she occasionally heard a sentence: Gossip, it sounds like love words with deep affection.

Wei Ying was very happy when she heard those words.With her hands behind her back, she walked forward and looked left and right. At this time, she had just seen the excitement next to a juggling stall. After walking for a while, she saw a small stall on the side of the street full of people, so she sneaked in with her petite body. Ahead, I found that it was a guessing stall.

Wei Ying looked down and saw two long tables about half a person's height joined together, and the tables were covered with dark linen.On the table were neatly placed square bamboo slips the size of an adult's palm. Under the bamboo slips were some gadgets, such as rings, necklaces, hairpins and other women's ornaments, or folding fans, jade pendants, and finger pullers. And other men's accessories.

Wei Ying lived in the palace since she was a child, and she is the first princess of a country. Although she doesn't like these cumbersome ornaments, she has seen a lot of good things, and her eyesight is excellent.With just one glance, she realized that these things on the table were not worth much, they were just bluffing things.

However, Wei Ying was somewhat interested in the bamboo slips on those gadgets. She turned her head and looked around, only to see several people holding bamboo slips in their hands, frowning and meditating.

Wei Ying finally fixed her eyes on the hand of a tall man standing next to her, and she said with a smile: "Brother, brother, this is my first time participating in the Cloud and Mist Festival, and I have never played a guessing game before." , is this game fun?"

It was a man with an extraordinary bearing. His figure was tall and straight, he was wearing a black brocade suit, his hair was combed meticulously, and he was tied on the top of his head with a warm blue jade crown.

The man wore a beautifully made half-face mask. Wei Ying couldn't tell what he looked like, but looking at his moderately thick lips and elegant chin, he knew that his appearance was definitely not bad.

The man turned his head to look at Wei Ying, first looked at the mask on her face, and then couldn't help but look at the clothes she was wearing, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

He understood etiquette very well, and quickly fixed his eyes on Wei Ying's small face. He didn't pay attention to her weird dress of men's clothing but a woman's mask, but said in a gentle voice: "Little brother, if you have any experience with riddle games?" For research, you can try to guess, as long as you can guess the riddle on this bamboo slip, you can get the reward under the bamboo slip.”

This voice is really pleasant, as soft as a gurgling mountain spring, as warm as jade warmed by the tentacles, slowly penetrated into the ears, and rang to the depths of the soul, with a kind of calming power.

This man was a head taller than Wei Ying. She looked up at his gentle and smiling eyes, and suddenly had an urge to see what his appearance was like, so as to know whether his appearance was worthy of this man. sound.
