Chapter 65
The rest of the village, as long as they are at home, will leave the door open.

Only the door of Yuan Guisheng's house was closed, and it was hard to tell whether he was at home or not.

Chi Baiyi asked Qin Yuanyao to stand in the distance with Chi Cheese, and went to knock on the door by himself.

Chi Cheese stared at her dad nervously.

If the person wearing the mask is the murderer who set fire to their family ten years later, then this person will be quite dangerous!

And the people in the village didn't think very well of him.

Dad must be safe and not get hurt!

Chi Baiyi raised his hand and knocked on the door a few times, the sound of shoes stepping on the ground and a male voice came from inside.

"Who is-"

Chi Baiyi didn't answer, and continued to knock on the door.

"Who the hell--" The male voice sounded a little annoyed, and at the same time opened the door from the inside.

Yuan Guisheng is in his 30s, with an ordinary appearance and average height.

He looked at the awe-inspiring man in front of him, and asked strangely, "Who are you? What's the matter?"

"You are Yuan Guisheng?" Chi Baiyi asked.

Yuan Guisheng looked at him vigilantly, but instead of answering, asked, "What's the matter with you?"

Chi Baiyi smiled lightly: "Do you have a white mask? My daughter saw you wearing that mask at the market. She was very interested and wanted one too. I would like to ask where you bought the mask."

Only then did Yuan Guisheng notice the women and children in the distance.

His expression lightened a little: "Are you foreigners?"

"Yes." Chi Baiyi nodded: "We are here to participate in the show."

Yuan Guisheng also heard about the fact that a star from the next village came to participate in the show.

He completely let go of his vigilance, and warmly entertained Chi Baiyi and the others.

He moved three chairs out of the room for Chi Baiyi and the others to sit on.

Then, he went back into the house and took out the mask.

"You're talking about this mask, right?"

Chi Cheese nodded: "Yes!"

But when Yuan Guisheng handed her the mask, she froze again.

This mask should be the one she saw at the market that day.

This mask, however, is not the same as the one she saw in the fire ten years later.

She remembered that there was a red dot between the eyebrows of the mask she saw in the fire.But there is no red dot between the brows of this mask.

Seeing her dazed expression, Yuan Guisheng asked, "Isn't it this mask?"

Chi Chezhi pointed to the position between the eyebrows of the mask, and Nai asked curiously, "Aren't there any red dots here?"

Instead, Yuan Shenggui was stopped by her question.

He said suspiciously: "There is no red dot."

"Uncle, do you have any other masks?"

"No, only this one. This mask was given to me by someone else." Yuan Guisheng said.

Chi Cheese blinked blankly: "Who sent it?"

"A few months ago, I went to the nearby mountain to pick wild fruits, and I met a foreigner whose leg was bitten by a wild boar. I took him back to the village and asked the village doctor from the next village, Anfeng Village, to give him For a leg injury. That man lived in my house for a while. He made this mask."

Chi Cheese froze again.

It turns out that this mask was not bought, but made?

If this mask is made, it is not sold on the market.

So, was the mask with red dots between the eyebrows she saw in the fire ten years later also made by the person whose leg was bitten by a wild boar?

"What's the name of the person who made this mask?" Chi Cheese asked, "Is he still living in your house?"

"His surname is Zhao. He asked me to call him Old Zhao. He didn't tell me his name. After he recovered from his leg injury, he left and was no longer at my house."

"Where did he go?" Chi Cheese asked.

"He didn't tell me that, he just said he was going home." Yuan Guisheng smiled: "Little friend, why are you so interested in him?"

Chi Cheese raised his face with a naive smile: "Because he is very powerful and can make such a beautiful mask."

Yuan Guisheng laughed: "Do you think this mask looks good? Many people think this mask is strange and scary, but you, a little doll, are not afraid and think it looks good."

"Hmm..." Chi Cheese held the mask in his chubby little hands, and looked at it carefully: "Although it looks a bit strange, it's also strangely beautiful."

Yuan Guisheng laughed: "Since you think it looks good and like it, uncle will give it to you."

Chi Cheese opened his eyes wide in surprise, and thanked softly: "Thank you, Uncle."

"But, uncle, people in the village say that you often hang around wearing this mask, and you gave me the mask, will you be sad and not used to it?" Chi Cheese asked sincerely.

Yuan Guisheng laughed and said: "Did they still tell you that I am a weirdo, and this thing looks scary and unlucky?"

Chi Cheese nodded heavily: "Well! They also said that you don't have a wife, but an old bachelor."

Yuan Guisheng: "..."

The smile on Yuan Guisheng's face froze.

My child, there is no need to repeat it if you are so honest.

"Although this mask looks a little scary, Lao Zhao told me that he made the mask after Chenghuang. He said that Chenghuang is a god horse in ancient mythology, which represents health and longevity. Therefore, he That's why you gave me this mask, I hope I will live a long and healthy life." Yuan Guisheng said.

"Then you gave me the mask now, won't you be able to live a long and healthy life?" Chi Cheese asked naively.

Yuan Guisheng's expression suddenly became sad, and he sighed lightly: "I'm alone, it doesn't matter if I live long or not."

Chi Cheese let out an incomprehensible "Huh?" and tilted his head to look at him.

Yuan Guisheng didn't want to bring negative emotions to the baby, who was only a few years old, and said with a positive smile: "No. When this mask was given to me, I had already received the blessing of health and longevity. Whether I keep the mask or Send it out, and the blessings of health and longevity will be there.”

Chi Cheese nodded with a half-knowledge.

Both Chi Baiyi and Qin Yuanyao discovered that this man named Yuan Guisheng was quite different from the person in the village.

He is neither strange, his speech is clear and organized, and he is a bit educated, which is different from most people in the village.

"Do you live alone?" Qin Yuanyao asked.

Yuan Guisheng's expression became gloomy: "Yes. My father passed away a few years ago. Last year, my mother also passed away because of illness. I had been working outside all the time, but because my mother was ill, I came back. After dealing with my mother's Afterwards, I never went out."

"I know what people in the village are talking about me. I don't blame... No, you can say that I have a weird personality. I'm not very good at dealing with the villagers. They like to ask too much. I can't stand it, so I rarely talk to them."

"The reason why I like to walk around the village wearing a mask is because I know that they don't like the mask. If they don't like the mask, they won't talk to me, so I can relax."
