The old village chief subconsciously looked past Su Xin and looked at the big tree behind her Despite the rustling sound from above, the ground was empty.
Whether the time has not yet come or whether they are outside of sentient beings The village chief waved his dry hand and interrupted Su Xin's words: "Let's be honest, we haven't made the mask yet, but if you can stay here for two more days, maybe you can." ” "That's right."
Su Xin answered.
Their original plan was to come today and return today, for fear that something would happen under the calm of this village that they could not imagine and that would be difficult to deal with.
At this moment, Zhixiang interjected: "Village chief, don't you have a lot of masks on this tree, can you take one off and let us see?"
In fact, Su Xin also thought of this, but she remembered that Su Qin wrote in that travelogue: The mask hanging on the tree is used by the villagers to pray for blessings.
Since it's a blessing thing, how can it be taken down casually.
But then she thought about it, she had never seen or heard of hanging masks on trees to pray for blessings, and at this time, looking in the direction of Zhixiang's finger, she saw the mask closest to them.
Hanging from the end of a thin branch, there was no trace of a rope.
Su Xin's gaze went up, and as the branches and leaves swayed, she finally saw the whole appearance of the mask.
There is indeed no trace of a rope attaching to it, but a slender branch grows from the petiole from which the mask hangs.
I felt a little panicked inexplicably.
Although the world is so big, it is the first time I have seen a mask growing on a tree.
At this moment, only a soft "click" was heard, and a mask fell off the branch, and then fluttered down.
The white mask fell lightly in the air, like a very light leaf.
This scene happened too suddenly, and the old village chief was also very surprised.
He looked at Su Xin and the others, his eyes swept back and forth on them several times, and finally his eyes fell on Su Xin, and asked solemnly: "Who are you?"
Su Xin was also taken aback by the strange scene in front of him just now, and when he heard the question, he replied: "Village Chief, do you think we can borrow a step to talk?"
His eyes subconsciously glanced at the villagers surrounding them, and they all looked at them with great curiosity and surprise.
Take 10,000 steps back, even if these villagers suddenly riot, Su Xin is not afraid, but he is afraid that what he said will be a little abrupt, and there will be misunderstandings and conflicts that are not more than necessary.
And it seems that the village chief has enough authority here, and it is enough to communicate with him alone.
The village chief glanced at Su Xin, although the other party looked like a very young girl, but her expression was sincere, and the temperament exuded by her body was calm and restrained, so he nodded to the villagers who were also a little overwhelmed around him, and everyone glanced at Su Xin suspiciously, and then looked at the masks on the ground, and then dispersed.
Su Xin said: "I really didn't mean to offend your village today, and I ask the village chief to forgive me."
To tell you the truth, three years ago, our friend went to your village, took the mask back from here, and then disappeared inexplicably, as if it suddenly evaporated from the world, so I came here this time to ask what the reason is. ” Because the village is so disciplined, Su Xin doesn't think that a covert investigation will yield more information than a direct inquiry.
The village chief sighed and said, "I don't think you look like ordinary people, but if you want to know more, then go and see for yourself." ” After speaking, he put his hands behind his back and left.
At this moment, Su Xin looked back at the mask that had just fallen to the ground, and Zhixiang was about to climb up the stone platform to pick it up.
Su Xin hurriedly stopped: "Don't move." ” Zhixiang was stunned for a moment and asked, "What?"
At this moment, the mask seemed to be blown by an invisible wind, and it actually floated faintly to his hand.
And Zhixiang also picked it up casually.
It was too late for Su Xin to stop it, and she suddenly thought of one word: providence.
Zhixiang gently groped with the mask, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and said in surprise: "That's right, that's how it feels, I'll put it on and try it." ” As he spoke, he put the white mask on his face.
There were no bands or ropes, and the mask was tightly fastened on the face.
Su Xin looked at it, revealing a frightened expression, the light mask turned out to be like a living thing, gently squirming to adjust its size, becoming more and more in line with Zhixiang's face Almost subconsciously, Su Xin stepped forward and ripped off the mask.
Under the mask, Zhixiang's face also turned white, but his expression seemed to be very excited and puzzled, not at all as if he was frightened.
He asked Su Xin puzzled: "What are you doing, why do you take it off, I think it's quite comfortable to wear, and I don't feel inconvenient at all." ” Su Xin gave Shi Feng a look, and the latter stepped forward and pulled Zhixiang over: "Don't leave my side three steps away in the future, and don't touch anything casually." ” Zhixiang saw that the three of them all looked serious, and defended innocently: "No, no, I just tried it on my face."
You don't think I'm going to disappear somehow."
Shi Feng: "It really doesn't matter to us whether you disappear or not, but now that we are a team, we will try my best to ensure your safety."
Of course, if you still insist on going your own way, you will leave me three steps away now, and I promise not to interfere with all your words and deeds again. ” It's one thing to protect others, but it also requires others to appreciate it.
This is the usual style of the Zero Zero Detective Agency, and it is never reluctant Zhixiang was worried in his heart, he looked down at the distance between himself and Shi Feng, subconsciously took a step closer, and asked timidly: "Is there three steps in this distance?"
After this little episode, several people walked around the village under the leadership of the villagers.
The mask that Su Xin had taken away gradually turned into a soft white cotton-like thing in her hands, and then slowly softened, dripping to the ground like white glue and blending into the dirt.
But the whole village, except for the big tree and the mask in the middle, everything else was normal.
The wide land in the middle grows seasonal grain and vegetables, and the surrounding mountains grow all kinds of wild fruits, and the villagers often go up the mountains to cut firewood and gather fruits, so it is barely enough for the people in the village to live.
Most of the people in the whole village were young and middle-aged people and children, except for the village chief, there were only two or three old people who looked to be in their sixties and seventies.
Passing by a house, Susin saw a gray-haired old woman combing the hair of a teenage girl.

While combing his shriveled mouth, he muttered words that he couldn't hear and couldn't understand, and his eyes were full of love and reluctance
