Chapter 16 016 Funeral Mountain Village (16)
Huang Xuan was completely unprotected, and her cell phone was displayed openly without a privacy screen.
[We are in the city, Xiaotao was beaten yesterday and her nose was broken]
[Okay, Yu and I took my sister from outside the village to the temple. There is still time before the next time. If Xiaotao can’t do it, I’ll replace him]
Huang Xuan was sending a message to Huang Lu, whom she just said she couldn't contact. Tang Jingxue analyzed what she had seen and found that Xiao Tao should be the priest's deputy at the funeral.
Zhao Jiahu was cruel and broke the bridge of the little girl's nose with one punch. Fortunately, she ran fast, otherwise she would have to go in.
She still doesn't know what kind of role Huang Lu plays, but she can tell that they are all actresses and can be replaced.
The troupe belongs to Huang Xuan, and the actresses in it have to listen to her orders. Maybe the arrangement of the roles, the plot and the funeral process were also prepared by Huang Xuan.
This is why Huang You clearly dislikes Huang Xuan and still wants to cooperate with her - Huang You's plan is inseparable from Huang Xuan's troupe.
Tang Jingxue recalled the roles needed to perform a play, including the high priest, the wedding woman, the deputy and the Pearl Empress.
The actor who plays the high priest is a dwarf old lady. The role of the high priest is very important and will not be replaced easily. It can also be seen that Huang Xuan does not want to change this character, otherwise she would not have chosen the dwarf.
She couldn't figure out why Huang You was so dependent on Huang Xuan but didn't give Huang Xuan what she wanted. She seemed to be afraid of Huang Xuan's regret but not afraid at the same time. This was very contradictory.
When she was in the Heshen Temple, Tang Jingxue hesitated for a long time before giving an evaluation that she felt was quite pertinent.
"Your temple is nice and has air conditioning."
Where is this temple? She believed this was a palace.
The small door of the shabby little house outside is used as a cover. After entering, you walk through a small courtyard and reach the real river temple.
As soon as you enter the door, you feel like you have entered another time and space. The cool air coming to your face comes from the central air conditioner above your head. The experience can be described as "refreshing"!
The floor is shiny, the walls are covered with marble tiles, and the transparent "prayer box" at the door is filled with red banknotes.
There is a huge white marble statue in the center of the temple. The face of the river god is not carefully carved. Its two eyes seem to be made of luminous pearls, which look a little dim during the day. The statue is very luxurious, and its accessories are all made of gold. There is a large sapphire on the harpoon on the side.
The river god clasped his hands together as if praying silently.
Huang Xuan asked someone to turn on the air conditioner in advance, otherwise it would be too hot as soon as she came in.
She found a futon and sat down on it, and said: "The weather here is very strange. It's so cold at night that it can melt people in the morning. There's no place to build a better house in such a small and broken place, so we can only renovate it first." Let’s make a living here.”
This is not only a river temple, but also a rehearsal room for her troupe.
"This should be the best house in Jingcun, right? It's really nice, I like it very much. Did you also make this statue of the River God?"
This is much better than Xiangtang, and the air conditioning is so powerful. When she gets the chance, she will definitely take it.
It would be so uncomfortable to stay in this poor place for seven days without a better house to stay.
Huang Xuan looked at the statue and snorted coldly, and said: "This is Xiaoyou's work, isn't it very good? She is a top student, so it would be a pity to use it here. I feel sorry for her when she wastes her talent on fraud."< br>
"Huh?"
Tang Jingxue was afraid that she would conflict with Huang You again if she said this, so she subconsciously wanted to see Huang You's reaction. But after looking around, she found that Huang You was missing, not only Huang You, but also Xu Taijing.
Could it be that Huang You kidnapped him?
She misunderstood Huang You on this matter. Huang You's targets were mainly young girls, who were like men and could not be beaten, let alone kidnapped.
Huang You has been very upset recently. The quality of the tourists coming to the village is not good, and the money they can earn has become less. In addition, Huang Xuan led the group of people to oppose her. If conditions did not allow her to do it, she would have gone it alone. .
She leaned on the phone outside the River Temple, and what the person on the other end of the phone said made her frown.
"Has the Xiangtang been occupied by someone? These people from other villages are quite crazy. It's still early anyway, so why are you in a hurry? I think this bunch of poor bastards are running out of money, so let's count on every little thing."
"Is this the person I want to find first? I..."
Before she could finish her words, she suddenly noticed a tall boy not far away playing with his mobile phone with his head lowered under the shade of a tree.
Feeling her gaze, Xu Daijing suddenly raised his head and looked at her.
She didn't know how much he heard and asked: "Why are you looking at me?"
His attitude towards her was different from that of Tang Jingxue, and he was particularly cold. He said truthfully: "I didn't look at you."
Huang You was speechless and snorted dissatisfiedly before entering the room.
In just a few minutes, Tang Jingxue and Huang Xuan were already chatting passionately.
"Wow, you are so awesome. I also acted in stage plays when I was a child. I played a princess and needed a lot of servants. What kind of plays do you play?"
"Some folk tales. My father was particularly fond of these stories when he was alive. He never went to school and didn't know how to read, so he just listened to people telling them. At that time, I was thinking, I want to act out these stories for him. Unfortunately, I haven't waited yet. He was dead when I was ready.”
Huang Xuan couldn't help but blush when she recalled her father. This was the most regrettable thing in her life.
Tang Jingxue wanted to ask her about the funeral, so she followed the clue of "folklore stories" and asked: "Then, is the 'wedding' here related to the marriage of the river god?"
Huang You kicked open the ajar door with resentment. When she came in, she happened to hear Tang Jingxue ask this question and replied: "Yes, it is the marriage of the River God. Not only the story, the purpose is the same. Don't You talk nonsense about your feelings all day long, how can a bunch of country bumpkins have time to look at you.”
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Tang Jingxue quickly responded: "I want to join you, what are the conditions?"
She had no evidence to suspect that the two characters in this dungeon were designed to cause internal strife and reduce the difficulty. As long as they were harmonious, they would not be so useless.
Huang You: "It's very simple. Just cooperate with us. I will inform you of the specific arrangements. Do you have a place to rest?"
Tang Jingxue pretended to be helpless and pointed at her eyes and said, "Oh, no. As you know, I'm not used to living in these houses. I don't know what happened yesterday. I felt like I was asleep, but it seemed like I was sleeping again." I haven't slept, and I'm a bit doubtful about my mental state. Do you think I have dark circles under my eyes?" (End of Chapter)
