Volume 1: A stone strikes a thousand waves, the world surrounds Li Daosheng Chapter 89: Hmm, how does the sentence go? The tiger girl also wants to be cute?
The road from Baihua Valley to Huashan is not far, but it still takes nearly half a month.
One evening, Li Si and Shu Hunu passed by a small town again. They had been traveling for several days and needed to rest, so they planned to stay here for one night.
The two of them randomly found a pub, rented two rooms and went to rest. The next morning, Li Si stayed in bed again and refused to get up. He was always like this, most of the time he was too lazy.
Maybe the tiger girl was led astray by him, so she didn't rush to ask him to get up and continue on the journey. Instead, she went out for a walk on the street alone.
To her, the streets of the Tang people were always too lively. It seemed that there was everything: food, clothes, ornaments, toys, pendants, utensils, etc., nothing was missing. It also seemed that there were all kinds of people: people hawking, shouting prices, chatting , and rushing on their way. All these people and things gathered on one street, making this street bustling, lively, and noisy.
Usually, women who are good at magic will just walk around, not talk, not buy anything, and then go back after they are done.
But this time, she stopped suddenly because she saw a group of women gathered in front of a stall, apparently buying something.
She was a little confused, so she moved closer, wanting to take a closer look.
When she looked inside the stall, she found that it was just a vendor selling rouge and powder, things she knew but had never used before.
Looking at the women fighting for the item, the tiger girl was so distracted that she stopped.
"Rouge and powder, rouge and powder, one or two coins for a box of rouge and a box of powder, take whatever you want."
In front of the stall, the vendor was shouting his wares.
Suddenly he saw a woman holding a sword walking towards him. He was startled at first, then greeted her with a smile on his face .
"What do you want, girl?"
The tiger girl lowered her head and didn't look at him. She simply glanced at the things on the stall, then picked up two boxes neatly and asked.
"How much for these two?"
"Hehe, today we're making a loss to gain publicity. Rouge and powder, no matter what, two boxes for one tael." The vendor said with a smile, bending over.
"Yeah." The tiger girl nodded lightly, took out a tael of silver from her arms and handed it to the vendor, then took the two boxes and left quickly.
She walked very fast, as if she was running away, and she was almost running.
Her pace gradually slowed down until she was completely out of the street.
She looked around, as if she was worried that someone was watching her, but once she left the market, there were no more .
Only then did she seem to be relieved and she let out a sigh of relief. She took out the two boxes of rouge and powder from her arms, placed them in front of her eyes and looked at them in a daze.
…
Li Si woke up around noon. When he opened his eyes on the bed, he was stunned by the bright sky outside.
He was a little curious as to why Shu Hu Nu hadn't come to call him at this time today.
Could it be that she overslept too?
With some amusing thoughts in mind, Li Si climbed out of bed, put on his coat, and walked out the door while rubbing his messy hair.
When he arrived at the room of the tiger girl, he could feel that the person inside had woken up. After all, his hearing was very good and he could hear very subtle sounds.
To his ears, there was a slight rustling sound in the room, as if someone was rubbing something.
Is she polishing her sword?
Why does this guy have the same personality as Dugu Bufu, holding a sword all day long?
Li Si raised his eyebrows, raised his hand and knocked on the door twice and asked, "Miss Shuhu, are you awake? We should set off."
"Bang!" The person in the room seemed to be startled and dropped something on the ground with a muffled sound.
Li Si frowned, thinking something had happened, and immediately pushed open the door and walked in.
he asked, looking around the room.
But the room was normal and nothing happened.
Finally, Li Si's eyes fell on a person sitting in front of a dressing table.
The two stared at each other blankly for a long while.
This person should be the Tiger Girl...
Li Si could only think this way.
Because at this time, this person's face was painted with thick gouache, making her face almost as white as a wall, and the rouge on her lips was not applied well, so that the bright red had been smeared on the corners of her mouth. Her neck and face were completely different colors, and her lips were three points bigger.
How to describe such a face?
In short, it is difficult to tell whether it is a human or a ghost.
Li Si was naturally startled, but fortunately, he managed to hold back from screaming.
It was not until a long while later that he pulled the corner of his mouth, took a half step back, looked at the person in front of him, and said awkwardly.
"Uh, why don't you just pretend I've never been here?"
"Clang!" This is the sound of a long sword being drawn from its sheath.
The next moment, a sword was at Li Si's throat.
"Gulp." Li Si raised his hand and swallowed his saliva. He didn't know whether he was frightened by the sword on his throat or by the face that suddenly approached.
The tiger girl stood in front of him, staring at him intently, and spoke word by word.
"Forget what you saw, or I will kill you."
…
Half an hour later, Li Si and Shu Hunu sat opposite each other at a table in the room.
The tiger girl lowered her head. The things on her face had been washed clean. It must be said that compared with before, she looked much better now.
Li Si looked at the two boxes of rouge and powder in front of him with a frown. After a long while, he looked at Shu Hunu again and asked tentatively.
"So, you just wanna try this stuff out?"
"Yeah." The tiger girl lowered her head and answered with a cold face, but the slight blush on her face could not be concealed.
"That's it." Li Si pursed his lips and nodded.
Then, he glanced at the tiger girl again, and suddenly found it a little funny, and said.
"You don't know how to use it?"
"Yeah." The tiger girl's face turned even redder, and she didn't know if she was angry or embarrassed. She replied with gritted teeth.
"Would you like me to help you put on some makeup?" Li Si picked up the rouge box, opened it and took a look, then asked with a smile.
He and Banjiexian had learned some disguise techniques, and he also had some accomplishments in the art of makeup.
At least, it's much better than the Tiger Girl.
"No need to try again. I don't need to use those things anyway." The tiger girl looked at Li Si viciously and refused directly.
In her opinion, Li Si must be laughing at her in his heart at this moment.
"That's such a pity." Li Si shook his head, put down the rouge box, and said to Shu Hu Nu with a faint smile.
"In fact, for someone like you, it would be good to simply put on some light makeup. You don't need to put on such heavy makeup. Some things are not good if you overdo them."
He meant what he said, for he was only speaking the truth.
However, these words made Shuhunu stunned for a moment. After a while, she avoided her eyes stiffly, then lowered her head and asked with some stammering.
"Really?"
"Why would I lie to you?" Li Si smiled, stood up from the table and said, "Well, since you don't want to try, forget it. Get ready. It's time to get going."
Having said that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
But before he took two steps, he was stopped by a voice.
"Wait, wait." Behind him, the tiger girl raised her head with forced calmness, looking to the side, and said lightly.
"Then you can help me try."
Anyway, just try it.
