Chapter 53: The Puppet
Yu Jiwu and the fish bones have arrived in Zongjiu Town together. After all, the osprey let the two work together, and naturally everything is focused on the overall situation, and now that Wu Ma Xin has fallen into the hive maze, there is almost no possibility of survival, as long as Yu Miao can't see Wu Ma Xin to affect their plans, there is no need for him to die without help.
Standing at the intersection, Fishbones asked, "Which way do you guess they're going?"
Yu Jiwu pointed to the south and said, "It must be this side." ”
"Haha, okay, let's bet on a drink, and we want a good daughter to be red. Fishbones said.
"It's a deal!"
The Night Charm and the Night Charm are different from the Yaksha Army, one practicing soul control and the other practicing puppetry. Yeyi's cultivation is quite high, there are puppet worms in his brain, fed with cerebral marrow, and his ability is far above that of people like Yu Miao, who rely on innate sensing ability. Before, in the wooden house, he controlled the minds of Wang Ziqing and Yu Miao at the same time, and asked them to release a fire dragon to burn down the wooden house, only in this way could they not see Yu Ran, but could only chase the puppet paper people controlled by the night ghost, and lead them to the hive maze of the ghost tribesmen.
According to Mu Yanglei's request, the puppet paper man attracted Wang Ziqing to run through the trap from the way of life, and Wu Ma Xin was not so good.
Yu Miao and Yu Lan had been asleep all the time, and they didn't get up for dinner, so Mu Yangfeng asked his subordinates to send some pastries to the room. Yu Miao's sleep is not steady, because of her natural sensing ability, her sleep has always been in a trance and wandering since birth, falling asleep is just the entrance to another world, but that world is more ambiguous. Since she was rescued by Mu Yang Tao with vines, she has been sleeping almost all the time, but no matter how long she sleeps, when she wakes up, she still does not reduce her physical fatigue, but becomes more tired. Yulan had no heart and lungs, slept very deeply, and woke up earlier than her.
"Miss. Would you like to eat something?" Yu Lan screamed softly, and seeing that Yu Miao had not woken up, she took two pastries and ate them. Yu Lan has been at the bottom of the sea for a long time, naturally she has never eaten such a delicacy, osmanthus cake is moist and soft, sweet and delicious; mung bean cake is delicate and tight, the taste is fragrant; glutinous rice cake is soft and sticky and sweet, and the fragrance is tangy; water chestnut cake has a sweet taste and melts in the mouth, everything makes her amazed and feasted.
The four plates of pastries were quickly swept away by her, but she hadn't eaten enough, so she knocked on the door next door, Cheng Jingyi saw that it was her, her heart was overjoyed, and she hurriedly brought all the pastries on the table, and the osmanthus cakes in Wang Ziqing's mouth were almost snatched away by Cheng Jingzhi.
Wang Ziqing's face was full of black lines, didn't this kid's head enter the water when he was soaking in the river.
Yu Lan grinned, turned around with two plates in each hand and was about to leave, but saw Yu Miao walking out of the house, her eyes were blank, as if she was sleepwalking.
"Miss. Are you awake?" Yu Lan called twice, but Yu Miao didn't react, just walked straight outside, Yu Lan grabbed two pastries, stuffed the plate to Cheng Jingzhi, and ran after him.
"Don't wake her up. I've heard my uncle say that once a sleepwalker is woken up, he will be so frightened that he will foam at the mouth and die. Cheng Jingzhi shouted, turned around and put the plate aside, and chased after him, the two had already gone far. Yu Miao and Yu Lan were both walking much faster than usual, and he trotted a little hard.
Wang Ziqing spit out the pastry in his mouth and walked out, but there was no trace of the three of them. Wang Ziqing stood in front of the door and muttered: "Why did it disappear all of a sudden, it was blown away by the wind." He didn't know where to chase, hesitated for a while, and actually entered Yu Miao's room like a ghost, a woman sat up lazily from the bed, it was Yu Miao, so scared that he almost jumped up, who was the person who went out just now?
The more Yu Lan chased, the more she felt a little weird, she ran a few steps forward and grabbed Yu Miao, her arms became thin and not hard, and she was crumpled by Yu Lan, it turned out to be a paper man!
After the paper figure was caught, he lost his aura and collapsed into a piece of paper. Yulan yelled badly, turned around and ran back, there was a gust of wind, and the paper figure drifted away with the wind.
Cheng Jingzhi ran behind panting, but he was still some distance away from the two people in front of him, until the wind was a little lighter, he barely caught up, walked a few steps in front of them, and stretched out his big hand and said: "You two are deaf, you don't answer no matter how you scream, and you still run so fast." ”
Yu Miao and Yu Lan still didn't mean to stop, and ran straight into Cheng Jingzhi, Cheng Jiangzhi felt wrong, these two people looked a lot thinner, and the wind was strong, fast, and the wind was weak, and they stopped when there was no wind, much like the legendary puppet paper man. Cheng Jingzhi thought of this, deliberately did not dodge, the two of them directly collided with his two arms, his body was blocked, but his head, hands and legs stretched forward, just like the paper man who was blown by the wind. Cheng Jingzhi's hands gathered in the middle, the two paper figures suddenly lost their aura and slid to the ground, Cheng Jingzhi roared, picked up the two paper figures and tore them to pieces, and ran back quickly.
Outside the courtyard, Ye Mei's heart was shocked, he had never seen Yu Miao and Yu Lan before, he had just made it, and there was not much aura poured into it, so it could only be used for lure, and he had no combat power, and naturally the backlash against him was minimal. Mu Yanglei told them that the people around Yu Miao, the safest way is to lure them away first.
Yu Miao in the room didn't speak, took out the fish kiss dagger and stabbed it, Wang Ziqing flashed to the side, dodged the edge, Yu Miao didn't fight back, eagerly grabbed the door and went out, and even knocked over the oil lamp in the corner of the table, it seems that she didn't want to kill him, rushing to a certain place is her purpose. Wang Ziqing hurriedly chased after him, Yu Miao felt that there was someone behind him, raised his hand upward, and the water in the well in the courtyard gushed out and pounced on Wang Ziqing, Wang Ziqing crossed his fists with fire overhead, the mist rose, and it was divided into six streams of water and flowed down from the side, forming a cage made of water, and Yu Miao walked out of the courtyard door quickly, with no expression on his face.
Wang Ziqing has the power of fire crystals, and he is also familiar with the control of fire crystals, but after all, water and fire are mutually restrictive, and the water in the well is connected to the river, which is endless, and he is obviously at a disadvantage, which is very difficult. Wang Ziqing exercised internal force, flames erupted from his fists, steam jumped in all directions, tried several times, and finally opened a gap, drilled out of it, the water droplets on his body still continued to turn into steam, without support, the water in the well fell to the ground with a "bang", and the jade beads splashed everywhere.
"Haha, you lost. Yu Jiwu saw two black-clothed people with sleepwalking like Yu Miao turning south at the intersection, and laughed, "The guy walking in front has empty eyes, he must be a master of soul control, Yu Miao should have been controlled by him, and the one next to him is constantly playing with a small piece of paper, he should be a master of controlling the puppet, and he should not be underestimated." ”
"Hmm. Fishbones agreed, and strode over.
Heaven is fair, it is impossible for you to have the strongest brain and a strong body at the same time. Yu Jiwu is the smartest of the Runxia clan, but he is also the weakest in health.
Cheng Jingzhi came to the road and saw that Yulan also ran over from another direction. "Another piece of paper. Cheng Jingzhi screamed secretly, ran forward and stretched out his arm to stop her waist, due to inertia, Yu Lan fell on his body, and said with shame on his face: "You rascal!"
"Ahh Cheng Jingzhi's face was full of embarrassment, and he said, "This time it's not a paper man." ”
The shame on Yu Lan's face immediately turned into surprise: "You also met the paper man?"
"yes, exactly like the two of you. Cheng Jingzhi was also surprised, it seems that she also encountered it.
"Oh no, Miss is in danger. Yu Lan said, pulling Cheng Jingzhi and leaving.
"How do you know which direction it is?"
"Intuition. Yulan replied.
In fact, it's not Yulan's casual feeling, and it's not that she wants to hide it, it's just that this matter is quite difficult to explain, and it's not too late to tell him slowly when you have time. She has to feel it by relying on the changes in the moisture in the air, the people of the Runxia tribe absorb the moisture in the air anytime and anywhere, and you can find her along the traces of less moisture, but this small difference is imperceptible to ordinary people, only they can perceive it.
Wang Ziqing was also on the way here, he was chasing the smell of lamp oil.
......
Nightshade noticed that someone was coming towards them, stopped, reached out and took out five paper figures and scattered them, instantly turning into five old men with long faces and long beards, one was a housekeeper in a brocade robe and holding a dagger, one was a boatman in a coarse cloth and holding a wooden oar, one was a gatekeeper in black and holding a steel knife, one was a member in a brocade robe and holding a ring ruler, and the other was an official of the court in an official uniform and empty-handed. Looking at the five people who stopped in front, Fish Bone sneered and pulled out the fin bone knife, without slowing down his speed in the slightest.
Ye Zhen and Yu Miao also stopped, he could have taken advantage of the opportunity for Night Charm to fight with him and slipped away first, but their Yaksha army was conceited, and they didn't have this habit at all.
These five people looked strange, but they were not weak, and they quickly surrounded the fish bones. The butler's dagger stabbed straight in the back, the boatman's wooden oars swept the lower plate, the courtyard ghost steel knife attacked the left side, and the outer ring ruler hit the right, and the court official flew to the front door, opened his five claws and grabbed downward. The fishbones dodged and dodged the attacks of the five men, fighting them in one place. After all, the fish bone is the number one master of the Runxia clan, and after a few rounds, he has already seen the flaw, and with a wave of the fin bone knife, the aura of the five people was slashed and the aura drifted away, turning into pieces of paper and lying on the ground, and there was no damage.
Night Charm's heart shook violently but did not panic, knowing that these five people couldn't stop him at all, but they didn't know who was coming, just try his depth.
It doesn't seem to be an easy thing to deal with, Night Charm took out three paper figures from her arms, threw them out, and suddenly turned into three unattractive people: a treacherous eunuch in a green robe and a dust, a miserly shopkeeper with an abacus in a yellow satin hand, and a vicious thief in a night suit and a steel knife, but they all have one thing in common - they all have a white birthmark on the bridge of their noses.
The fish bones were expressionless, just holding the fin bone knife and looking at it coldly.
The thief flipped to the front of the bucket, and the fin bone knife was just about to fall, but the thief flipped to the side. The fish bone retracted the fin bone knife and watched quietly, the hairy thief kept flipping in front of him and behind his back, without stopping for a moment, but he didn't have the slightest intention of attacking. The hairy thief turned faster and faster, dazzling, and ghosted, and it was impossible to tell which was his real body. The eunuch cocked his orchid fingers and stroked his hair, watching the thief flip like watching a play, and from time to time let out a "poof" laugh, and his eyebrows and eyes moved charmingly. The shopkeeper bowed his head and said nothing, just pulling the abacus in his hand vigorously, which was messy and harsh, disturbing people's hearts.
The eunuch smiled strangely, and with a flick of the dust, countless filaments flew out, shooting at the fish bones like steel needles, and the shopkeeper also made a mistake at the same time, slapped the abacus on his hand, and the abacus scattered and fell to the ground, mixed with flying dust and rolled towards the fish bones. The fishbone's afterglow swept away, and the hairy thief leaped high, and a steel knife flashed white and plunged into his right rib.
People who seem funny are actually the most vicious!
