So, Thanks. The Welcome New Year 2022

After Tian Rou's departure, Li Xiang and Xiao Xing Fu decided to walk down the street and see the celebration said by the girl.

Xiao Xing Fu looked around in astonishment, "I've never gone to a celebration before. There was no celebration in my home. So this is my first time." Enthusiasticity says.

Li Xiang rolled his eyeballs lazily, "God.."

"See that! Look that! They have meat loaf!" Xiao Xing Fu said as he pointed at the seller who was selling meat buns. "And look at that! They even sell sweets! There's a lot of sweets in there!" He pointed to another shop. "Well, look at that too! They play musical instruments beautifully!"

Li Xiang smiled mockingly, "Heh, you're acting like a 4-year-old child."

Xiao Xing Fu was also aware of his behavior earlier. He pretended to cough, "Uhuk. uhuk.. Ekhem.I mean, there are a lot of sellers in this place. You saw it for yourself, didn't you? There's a meat baker, sweets.. Um. and more."

Li Xiang laughed instead, "You look weird when you say that. Just tell me if you want to buy food here. Don't just show me all that."

"E-eh. t-no. I was just too happy. Not that I want to buy the food I mentioned earlier." Xiao Xing Fu said nervously. "I don't like sweets!"

Li Xiang walked towards a tavern that sold tanghulu. Xiao Xing Fu himself was still silent in his place as he watched around with a feeling of enthusiasm.

After a while, Li Xiang walked up to his disciple with a tanghulu in his hand. "You like sweet food, don't you?"

Xiao Xing Fu looked at Li Xiang when he heard his teacher's remark. He looked at the tanghulu Li Xiang had thrust at him. "T-no. m-I mean yeah. uh. t-no. no.." He shook his head quickly.

"Come on, don't be embarrassed like that. You actually want to buy sweets, don't you? Your eyes and your words answered." Li Xiang had an arrogant expression.

Xiao Xing Fu looked the other way while closing his eyes. "I'm not saying I like sweet food. But I also didn't say that I didn't like–"

"Then eat this. I bought it for you." Li Xiang directly stuffed the tanghulu into Xiao Xing Fu's mouth before his disciple finished his sentence.

"Hmp! Uhuk.." Xiao Xing Fu coughed. He immediately pulled a stab at the tanghulu in his mouth. One candied fruit that was pierced the top was eaten by him, even before he chewed. "Uhuk.. uhuk.. you–"

"Shuutt, you want to thank me, don't you? Hah.. alright.all right.it doesn't matter. Now you just spend that tenthulu. I'll be gone for a minute." Li Xiang directly escaped from Xiao Xing Fu. "Goodbye, have fun!" He shouted after being far away from Xiao Xing Fu.

Xiao Xing Fu became annoyed. His throat became a little sore from Li Xiang's. "He's that..!" He growled in annoyance.

Xiao Xing Fu finally left the place feeling annoyed. In her hand was a tanghulu. He does not throw it away, because if he does, it is the same as throwing away food in vain.

"T-please.. j-don't.."

Xiao Xing Fu heard someone's voice faintly. He saw a house he had just passed. It seems like other people do not hear it because it is too busy with their respective affairs and maybe because it does not grieve it.

Xiao Xing Fu who had already exhausted his tanghulu went straight towards the source of the voice. As he approached the house, he heard no more voices. He was also without permission to just plunge into the house.

"What's this?" Xiao Xing Fu said suddenly after opening the door. He was immediately shocked when he saw the thing in front of him.

"You who?! Dare to enter this place without permission!"

"What are you guys doing?!" Snapped Xiao Xing Fu. Instead of answering, he asked back.

"What are we doing? Isn't it obvious?! You're interrupting us practicing!"

In this big house there are not many things. There were only 5 men and 3 women in it. The three women were tied up in 3 chairs that were clinging to each other. They are in the middle of the room. Behind them were 3 men and 2 men standing beside them. The three men standing behind the three women were seen holding knives covered in blood. One of the clothes of the three women also had blood spots.

"What do you mean practicing to hurt others?!" Snapped Xiao Xing Fu. He went deeper into the house.

"What do you mean, boy? We're rehearsing for the show later. Then you're bothering us!" Say one of the men with annoyance.

Xiao Xing Fu stopped approaching. He blinked a few times, "The show?"

"Yes. There will be a midnight show later and we are currently rehearsing for a performance at the theater that is already provided in this village." Say a woman sitting among other women.

"Before you finally messed up our rehearsals!" Ketus a man.

"I-I don't know. I'm sorry for messing up your training!" Xiao Xing Fu lowered his head with a regretful look. "I heard someone's voice asking for help. So I went straight here. I don't know if it's just rehearsal for your show. Again, I'm sorry."

"Cih, then go now. Don't mess up our training again. You're interrupting!" Anxious of a woman sitting on the right. "We've been practicing so many times, but it's always been messed up by people like you who don't know what!" He and his friends looked angry and upset.

"I'm sorry again. I'll be gone soon." Xiao Xing Fu walked out and closed the door back.

Xiao Xing Fu immediately went away from the house he entered. He breathed a languid sigh. "Huft. I haven't been here long, but people are already angry with me. I shouldn't have just come in like that, huh.."

After tens of minutes, Xiao Xing Fu finally stopped walking his way in the village celebration. He is currently sitting on a chair under a tree. Around the place where he sat there were not so many people. So he can relax here. "Why hasn't he come back yet? Is he lost?" Mumbled. "Huft..if only I had money, I'd like to buy more sweets."

"Do you like sweet foods?"

Xiao Xing Fu nodded when he heard someone's voice, "I really like sweet food."

"Don't eat too much sweet food, because the rats will take your teeth later."

"Heh, how could it be like that. What do rats take teeth for? They want to eat it? Huh, good joke." Xiao Xing Fu snorted.

"But true. You can't eat too much sweet. You want your teeth toothless like grandpa's?"

Xiao Xing Fu started to frown. He had since replied to someone unconsciously. He looked back slowly. "Akhun!" He who was shocked immediately hit a terrible face behind him, until the man was pushed with his back head hit the tree behind him.

"Addicted.. Sshhh. my face.."

Xiao Xing Fu immediately stood up when he saw that person unmasked the sinister mask he was wearing. He expressed annoyed, "You again, you again! Why do you always bother me?!"

Xiao Xing Fu saw Li Xiang sitting under a tree with his hands still stroking his face. In his teacher's hand was a mask with a sinister face like a corpse with flaky skin and a visible brain.

Li Xiang slowly stood up, still stroking his face. "You must have hit me in the face. It hurts so much.."

Xiao Xing Fu was still expression irritated, "You started first! You're shocking. So it's not my fault. It's your own fault, for coming here with such an appearance!"

Li Xiang pouted, "But don't directly hit me like that."

"Don't blame me." Xiao Xing Fu threw away his face. He glanced back at Li Xiang when he saw something from the corner of his eye, "Your nose is bleeding."

Li Xiang who heard the words of his disciple directly touched under the nose. He saw the blood on his hands after touching the bottom of his nose.

"Are you okay? Is this because of my punch?" Xiao Xing Fu said with guilt.

However Li Xiang did not say anything and instead looked the other way since Xiao Xing Fu had turned her eyes away from him earlier.

Seeing that, Xiao Xing Fu directly turned her body, looking towards something Li Xiang had seen. A woman in her 20s appears to be wearing quite striking clothing. It looks quite luxurious, has a length not to the knee, to show a little part of his thigh that is smooth white, without defects. Like less material. Same on the top. It looks thin and a little transparent.

Xiao Xing Fu returned to look at his teacher. His expression became even more annoyed, "Stupid!" His shouting.

"Damn, I'm glad I didn't miss it. I'm so lucky." Said Li Xiang with a seemingly pleased expression.

"Stupid teacher!" Xiao Xing Fu directly hit Li Xiang in the face, until the teenager fell down.
