Chapter 22 022. The Mouth of the Abyss
"It's done, let's wait here."
When the girl came back, the high head on the slender neck was like a fighting cock...or a white swan.
With a proud look, he came to Xu Xin.
"Why did you go?"
Xu Xin didn't know what she said to the young child, so she was curious.
But she didn't explain much, but quietly approached Xu Xin:
"You'll know in a while! Hehe~"
Looks in a great mood.
?
Xu Xin was a little puzzled, but he still waited with her while carrying his things.
And then...
The two of them watched helplessly that the front hall, which was originally crowded with people, turned into a lonely place with cats and dogs.
The audience has entered the arena regardless of whether they have seats or not.
"..."
Xu Xin thought for a while and asked:
"What the **** are we... going to do?"
Yang Mi's complexion is also a little strange now.
Glanced at the audience who were all standing at the door in the open door, and subconsciously said:
"I can't... I have accepted my shrimp crackers! How can I lie to people..."
"What?"
Xu Xin didn't hear clearly, so he asked in bewilderment:
"Someone snatched your shrimp crackers?"
"No, no, I just..."
While talking, suddenly, the small door leading to the staff area was pushed open.
A half-sized boy with freckles poked his head out from inside:
"Sister, hey, this way."
Yang Mi's face immediately changed from cloudy to sunny:
"Eh!"
walked to the side of the biscuits and asked:
"Where's the stool?"
"Stop the stools! I'll take you to a good spot...Shh."
Shaobing beckoned cleverly:
"Let me tell you two, when you go over there to listen later, don't worry about other people. Don't just poke your head around. It's not that you two are not allowed to move. The main thing is that we have rules in the performance. During the performance, if suddenly There are too many things on the stage that are not part of the performance, and it is easy to distract the sticky... er... sticky is..."
"OK!"
The girl waved her hand:
"What are you and I talking about about the eyes of the sea? Do you think I'm free? It's still a good time. Let's go...Where will you take us?"
While speaking, she was in front, Xu Xin was behind, and they had already walked into a passage.
Shaobing didn't explain, just told her not to talk.
He led the two of them to a gate full of flower baskets.
The child made a silence gesture again, and whispered:
"I told the uncle that you are my cousin, and my mother asked you to come and see me. So if someone wants to ask later, you can say that you are the cousin of Shaobing, okay?"
"Come on, I understand!"
The half-child relaxed, grinned, and opened the door.
The gate was very dark, and the child said thoughtfully:
"Be careful where you step."
Xu Xin said where did he go to become a thief?
Speechlessly, taking advantage of the light at the door, she followed Yang Mi and walked forward. After walking a few steps, she saw the steps after getting used to the light.
He went up the steps and turned his face...
I saw an empty stage, and the tables placed on the stage and the background sky painted like the Qingming River Picture...
Is this above the stage?
Xu Xin was taken aback.
But the girl's face was already excited.
Then, Shaobing took out two triangular stools, pointed at the table by the stage, and said with a smile:
"How about it, sister, am I interesting enough? This seat is usually only available to the family members of our insiders."
"That's interesting! I didn't say anything! Come on, I'll treat you to a Coke!"
Yang Mi's smile disappeared.
Ke Shaobing waved his hand:
"No, no, then you two sit, go to the toilet or something, just turn left when you get out the door. I'm going over there."
"Yeah, 7878~Thank you~"
"Hmm~"
The biscuits are gone.
Xu Xin was sitting on the triangular stool. Seeing that there was a gap in the curtain, he got up curiously and opened a small gap to look outside...
Crowded.
Like mountains and seas.
Why are these people here?
All come to listen to cross talk?
He was a little shocked, and then he heard the girl say:
"Hurry up, it's about to start, come and sit down~"
"Well…"
Hurriedly returned to the seat, and as soon as he unscrewed the drink, he saw a few men wearing that kind of Republic of China coat standing on the opposite side.
Cross talk actor wearing this dress?
He came out of curiosity, but he heard a crackling sound next to him.
Turning her head to look, she saw that the girl had just opened a Copic potato chip, and she seemed to be planning to eat it while watching it.
But Xu Xin thought about it, but suddenly said:
"Hey, why don't you eat it."
"ah?"
The girl who just squeezed out a piece of potato chips was a little puzzled.
First Xu Xin, then potato chips...
subconsciously explained:
"I don't get fat from eating, no matter how I eat meat, it will grow to the right place..."
"no."
Xu Xin shook his head:
"Didn't you just listen to that... Shaobing said, they call it a performance. They don't let us look around, for fear that there will be something outside of the performance that will distract the audience's attention. To put it bluntly, they are afraid of acting, right? "
"Well…"
"You are making too much noise."
Pointing at the package of potato chips, Xu Xin shook his head:
"While they are talking for a while, drinking water is not afraid, but this kind of plastic packaging is crackling... The audience will definitely play when they hear any movement. It is not appropriate at that time."
"Hmm... not that exaggerated?"
Seeing that the girl seemed a little reluctant to part with the potato chips in his hand that he could smell the smell of barbecue, Xu Xin also hesitated...
Eating is actually not a big deal, is it?
But in the next second, he denied this idea:
"People call this a performance. To put it bluntly, it's the same as us. What should be respected should be respected, even if it's not filming, right?...Don't eat this. When you go out, I'll treat you to Pringles. This thing is compressed powder Pringles are natural potato chips, okay?"
Xu Xin said so, and Yang Mi is not an ignorant person.
Just…
"Crackling."
"Hang Chi, Hang Chi."
"buzz buzz~"
"Don't eat...poof...it's over."
Watching a few seconds of effort, a bag of potato chips was stuffed into the small cherry mouth in horror, and the girl covered her mouth with potato chips falling out of her hands but still trying to speak .
"..."
Xu Xin was dumbfounded.
Girls... Hey, don't be girls.
Melon girl, is your mouth a harvester?
Or the mouth of the abyss?
"Oh, you melon girl... don't talk, give it."
He quickly handed over the Sprite in his hand.
Then what…
Both of them forgot that when carbonated drinks encounter this kind of puffed food, they will froth...
After taking a sip of Sprite, Xu Xin clearly saw the melon woman who sensed something was wrong, covering her mouth with panic in her eyes.
Then.
Foaming water mixed with potato chip crumbs came out of my nose...
"Poof..."
"Hey I..."
"Cough cough cough cough cough...you..."
"I…"
The audience at the scene heard the movement, and their eyes kept looking towards the curtain.
But I can't see anything.
Xu Xin had potato chip scum all over his face, as did the warm cashmere sweater he was wearing.
I haven't had time to speak yet...
Suddenly, in front of him, Shaobing in a Tang suit walked onto the stage, came to the microphone, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Please enjoy the cross talk: "Guessing Lantern Riddles", performed by Kong Yunlong and Li Yunjie."
"oh!!!"
"Wow la la la la la la..."
Cross talk, it's over.
