Chapter 10: The Living Paper Man
As soon as you enter the courtyard gate, you will see the paper-paste cows, horses and snakes, piles of paper ingots, all kinds of gods and goddesses, all kinds of magic tools used to see feng shui, and miscellaneous objects that can only be used by ghosts.
It's really a feng shui shop, grandpa has been tossing these things a lot in the past few years, but it's quite all, I secretly praise it.
Skirting the pile of miscellaneous things in the yard, he moved forward.
Subconsciously looked up, it seemed that he had just bumped into something, no, no, it felt like he had hit someone!
When I looked up again, there was no one.
Isn't that weird? Someone hit me just now! I'm a little puzzled.
Maybe it's a hallucination after a day of traveling, I don't think so.
After a second glance, he subconsciously took a few steps back.
"Ahh
Then I realized that there were two people standing in the doorway, oh no, when I saw clearly, it turned out to be two......
Paper Man!
This......
I looked them up and down, each of these two paper figures is one meter eight tall, from the appearance of a man and a woman, but the other facial features are there, but there are no dotted eyes, although the bamboo is the skeleton, but the various joints are very flexible.
Although they are papier-mΓ’chΓ©, they are like two real people, standing vividly on both sides of the gate, so that I will have an inexplicable illusion when I look at them, as if they will rush to do something terrible in the next second.
I had just moved things inside the door, and when I turned my head again, I was a little blindsided.
The male paper figure was obviously on the left side of the female paper figure just now, but how did he get to the right in the blink of an eye!
Am I dazzled?
No way!
In an instant, a fear struck.
I subconsciously shuddered: "Damn, what the hell is this place, it's too crazy." β
I didn't think much about it, I moved my things directly into the house, and it took a lot of time to pack the package.
Jingle Bell!
The old old bell began to strike and chirp.
I subconsciously looked up, only to realize that it was almost twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
It's an unlucky time, so let's go to bed quickly.
I collapsed on the bed and never wanted to get up again, and after a while, there was a sound of snoring, and I fell asleep in a daze.
Dangdang!
Suddenly, there were several noises, as if someone was knocking on the door, and it didn't seem to be.
I struck my feet with a sharp wit.
Could it be that there are thieves patronizing?
It's not right to think about it, and if you want to steal something, you won't be stupid enough to come to this gloomy feng shui shop to steal ghost things, unless this person doesn't want to live, and he doesn't want to die if he makes a ghost fortune.
I put on my slippers and took the shovel in the house for self-defense, and I tiptoed towards the door hunched over, not daring to breathe, and vaguely heard the sound of conversation outside the door.
Crunch!
Immediately afterward, I heard a few sounds outside the door that seemed to be a crunch of bones and joints, like robots.
I don't know why, cold sweat is already breaking out on my forehead.
Listen to the movement first.
For a long time, there seemed to be no movement outside the door.
Just as I was about to open the door to see what was going on.
"Brother Paper, why did you say that Xiangye died? His old man is not kind to us, he is dead, what are we still doing here. β
There seemed to be a woman talking outside the door, yes, I heard it clearly, it was really a person, but there was no one to be seen.
I nervously looked at the door and window, and saw two black figures about 1.8 meters tall walking back and forth, their movements a little stiff, talking to each other as they walked.
"Paper girl, don't be sad, no, it wasn't his grandson's name Liu Zilong just now, he came to pick up this store, and he will definitely not treat us badly in the future, let's take a good look at the door." β
"Hey, I want to change my gold paper body, but the old man hasn't changed it for me yet......
"It's not simple, ask his grandson Liu Zilong to help you stick a body of gold. β
The more I listened, the more I felt hairy.
This......
Suddenly something occurred to me.
They......
They are not people!
Don't......
Are they ......
It's the two paper figures at the door!
Oh, my God!
My heart rate had skyrocketed, and I was about to jump to my throat.
Ding-ding-clang!
Whew......
Immediately afterwards, there was a lot of noise in the yard, and I heard a bunch of cows, horses and chickens crowing, and it became a litter.
Driven by curiosity, he carefully opened a gap, which didn't matter at a glance, and almost scared to pee.
I saw that the paper-paste cows, horses, snakes, and gods in the courtyard suddenly came to life, and those gods and ghosts were actually talking, and they mingled with the two paper men at the door.
Bang!
I closed the door and sat down on the floor, drenched in cold sweat.
How dare you go out, these guys who are not human, even if they don't want my life, they have to be scared to death.
Closed the door tightly and shrunk at the foot of the wall, just like that, I didn't sleep at all this night, there was always strange movement in this feng shui shop, and I understood the meaning of what my Uncle Chen said to me before leaving.
I realized that this feng shui shop is definitely not that simple.
Suddenly I thought of something, rushed to the bedside, I hurriedly flipped through the "Dragon Xiangtui Back Sutra" left by my grandfather, flipped through it for a long time, and suddenly my eyes lit up.
That's when I found some clues.
A few red words caught my attention, and I subconsciously muttered.
Blood Method!
I was shocked! I see, the paper figure must have been specially made by my grandfather.
The book records that there is a strange paper-binding technique, called the blood method paper-binding technique.
This technique is very unusual, and it is quite exquisite, and it must be guided by human blood.
I was nervous, but out of curiosity, I continued to watch.
There are two ways to do this.
One is that it must be guided by the blood of people born during the lunar year, or more precisely, by the blood of the dead.
Dead man's blood!
And this blood must be dead people's blood in order to have aura.
The second is to ask for the blood of a beast that has been enlightened and died tragically, and the beast's blood is full of bestiality, and the things made are even more evil.
Then use these two kinds of extreme yin blood to paint the skin on the paper figure, and then the paper made will have life and vitality.
But there's one thing that's pretty crazy.
The spirit blood is the thrush of the female paper man, and the paper figure drawn is not only very charming and moving, but also full of aura, however, there is one taboo that must be remembered, that is, you must not completely open the eyes of the paper man, once the eyes are opened, the consequences can be imagined unimaginable.
It is conceivable that once the paper man has a yin eye, he will naturally open his eyes and harm others.
And the general funeral shop belongs to the yin, and over time, the paper figure drawn with this kind of blood art will naturally cultivate the climate by absorbing yin qi.
The book also says that there is a kind of paper figure that does not open its eyes and can be used to protect the home and protect it from evil spirits.
Only then did I understand my grandfather's intentions, he was there to put two live paper figures to watch the gate, but fortunately he was not an evil ghost.
After putting away the cheats, I was relieved, and I was not in the mood to sleep again that night, and I was so worried that I was dying.
