This doesn't seem to be the first time he has faced a "wooden man" opponent, but Xu Ning racked his brains and didn't think about it, compared with the last few wooden man opponents, the craftsmanship of these wooden people is obviously much worse.

Seeing the wooden man, it goes without saying that the arranger of this level must be a puppeteer.

However, if I remember correctly, the old ghost should have said that there are no other living people in this Brahma city except for them. If there are no living people, it means that there are no puppeteers. If there is no puppeteer, there is no way for the puppet to move.

This reasoning is a bit silly, but compared to the scene in front of you, you can't help but feel weird in your heart.

There are two in total, one left and one right, confronting Xu Ning and the old ghost.

It looked like a shoddy, half-finished product, something that was made at random like a child's play, and nothing resembled a wooden man except for its body and limbs.

The so-called torso is three barrels, stacked on top of each other. The texture of the wood is good, it should be a certain kind of hardwood, it seems to be red sandalwood, but it seems to be much lighter than the color of red sandalwood. The barrel has about the same waist circumference as an ordinary person, and its appearance is very smooth, as if it has been smeared with a layer of oil; The so-called limbs are actually only the two arms on top, and the arms are composed of three bamboo tubes about the same thickness as a normal person's arm. The whole wooden man has no legs, and rolling forward is a wooden barrel, and the two ends of the barrel are stuck with iron rings, which move and "gurgle", forming two reflections on the ground paved with crystal glass.

"No, make something like this. Is it to be scary? Xu Ning couldn't help but sigh and said.

To be honest, he was very unhappy that he seemed to have life as a puppet. A feeling of contempt came to my heart, and the two poorly made things in front of me were simply insulting myself by my opponent.

"Boy, your attitude is a little impetuous, I remind you, don't underestimate these two wooden people, otherwise you will suffer." The old ghost slowly adjusted his direction and said with a very ugly face.

"Bamboo tubes and barrels. What do you think is scary? Xu Ning said disdainfully. I don't think the Wooden Man's statement is a bit accurate! Tell me, what is terrible? ”

"Humph! Don't you really notice what's so terrible about this wooden man? ”

"If you don't want to say it, forget it, I didn't ask you." Xu Ning was already on fire to the old ghost's nest. See his plausible and obscure attitude again. Suddenly it was on fire.

"Alas. The young man really couldn't hold his breath...... Look at the interconnected parts of the wooden people! Don't just look at the rough appearance. ”

Actually, Xu Ning had noticed it a long time ago, but he just didn't want to talk too much to the old ghost. The whole wooden figure may not be pretty, but the construction is very delicate!

The parts of the body and limbs are indeed very simple, which are bamboo tubes and wooden barrels, but in any place where the joints can be moved alive, it can be called ingenious. It seems that there are only simple devices such as wooden wedges and iron hoops, but they are far more flexible than you think, and if you don't look closely, you won't notice the connection at all, and you will mistake it for a strange situation where there is no connection at all.

After gathering his gaze, Xu Ning saw that there were at least dozens of dexterous parts at just one joint, and these parts combined to move the whole body, vividly imitating the arm movements of normal people, and at the same time, they could also do more difficult movements than living people. For example, a normal person's elbow joint can't rotate 360 degrees, but a wooden person can!

With such a clever puppeteer's work, it is not easy to defeat him if it is combined with a clever operation.

However, just because of this, I am worried and afraid, and it is not enough, at best, it shows that the puppeteer's craftsmanship is very high. The wooden man is the most primitive state of all the puppets, and the first puppet made by humans is the appearance of the wooden man, but in that state, it is only a simple imitation of human movements, and it is impossible to develop into a means of combat.

The reason why the puppet is valued as a combat tool is not only because of its appearance, which can avoid casualties of the manipulator itself, but also because its existence can raise one's combat effectiveness to the team level. A high-level puppeteer can manipulate ten or even hundreds of puppets at the same time, each puppet has different attack moves and defense capabilities, and in this kind of cooperation, it is completely an army!

As a manipulator, you can observe the entire battle situation from behind the scenes with the broadest perspective, and the enemy is trapped in the puppet warband, so naturally he has no experience to pay attention to the things around him, so his chances of victory will naturally increase a lot.

In the final analysis, no matter how powerful the puppeteer and the puppet are, the two are inseparable, only the puppeteer does not have a puppet, just like a soldier has no weapons on the battlefield, only a puppet has no puppeteer, and no matter how delicate and powerful the puppet is, it is also an ornament.

The puppet in front of him didn't look powerful, and Xu Ning didn't see the puppeteer, so he really didn't know what to be afraid of.

"Boy, haven't you heard of the Soul Seal?" The old ghost said in a hoarse voice.

"Of course I did." Xu Ning frowned, it was a way to seal a person's soul in a certain substance, just like when he was framed by Xu Tiande and others, fell into the deep valley, and met the Emperor Venerable, his soul was sealed in the chain.

"Then why do you think these wooden puppets can operate without people?" The old ghost said coldly, with a hint of ridicule in his tone.

Xu Ning almost slapped himself in the mouth!

Is your brain stupid? Such an obvious truth, I didn't even think about it!

After realizing this, Xu Ning also became nervous, now, what he has to face is not a wooden puppet, but actually two souls who use wooden barrels and bamboo tubes as their bodies! Uncle, this is not the puppeteer's masterpiece at all, but the soul refiner's masterpiece!

Regardless of whether it was a puppeteer or a soul refiner, it was obvious that these two strangely shaped and unremarkable wooden figures were ready, and after a little bit of connection, they moved their limbs as briskly as humans.

"It's coming!" The old ghost said hurriedly.

"You can't turn around, how can you deal with the wooden man? I think it's a lot more agile than you! ”

"My turnings are slow, but I'm moving fast, and with a slight angle deviation, I can fight through the guò back and forth." The old ghost smiled smugly and said, "There are reflections everywhere here, and it is not difficult to find an opponent, besides, I didn't say that I could only move forward!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the figure disappeared with a "swish"! Xu Ning felt a breeze flash on his face, and the old ghost dragged his black robe and landed in the corner in front of him.

Indeed, this was a natural and advantageous battlefield for the old ghost, and he could see the situation in all directions without turning his head.

"Whoosh!" As soon as the old ghost moved, the wooden man opposite him also moved immediately, and Xu Ning was surprised to find that in the state of sue sù moving, those wooden barrels would also separate, but they would quickly merge the moment they landed.

Xu Ning smiled bitterly in his heart, it seems that this time he is in big trouble.

"Click, click!"

The wooden man in front of him tilted his head, in fact, he just turned the top barrel, and it looked like a person tilting his head and staring at himself.

"Click!" Suddenly, the wooden man's form actually took on a posture that was both offensive and defensive! Whether it is momentum or movement, it is not much worse than the real human body! Especially the smooth and greasy surface of the wooden man's appearance, flies and mosquitoes can split when they climb up!

"No wonder the old ghost said that the Panlong Sword can't be used." Xu Ning exhaled and moved his wrist.

It's been a long time since I've used pure martial arts, so let's practice this time!

The arms were secretly exerted, from the shoulders to the middle, the large joints and small joints were all wrapped in the gangqi, and the gentle air flow continued to run in the two arms; The legs are basically the same preparation, and beyond the limbs, there is the torso and the head. There is no way to do it at all, you can't always find something to wrap it up first, it's very unrealistic, and it's easy to be affected in battle, so you can only protect it carefully. As for the torso, it has long been filled with golden gangqi, the long clothes are fluttering, and the air shield is very close to the surface of the body, but it is a very tough defensive energy.

When you are a rival with a wooden man, don't think that you are a good man. No matter how great the ability is, it is also a physical body, the other party is wooden, even if you smash it, it will just become a pair of wooden scum, and if the other party touches you, it will be a scar that cannot be healed for a long time, and it is even possible to hurt the muscles and bones.

Many people are either seriously injured or killed in the end because they look down on puppets. And for those broken puppets, they will continue to be used if they are repaired casually.

Feeling that he was ready, Xu Ning made a posture that was both offensive and defensive.

The left hand turns into a fist and is placed in front of the left side of the body, in an obvious defensive position, while the right hand is turned upwards with the wrist turned upward, and the three fingers of the index finger, thumb and middle finger change into the shape of a dragon's claw.

This is the Xu family's dragon slaying trick of changing moves, Xu Ning called it "Tyrannosaurus Claw"!

"Listen, if you're a soul body, you can hear it even if you're hidden in a wooden man! I'm not here to plunder wealth, but to fulfill a promise, stop if you know each other, otherwise the master will tear you down! ”

"Whoa!"

The wooden man's body tightened, and he rushed over with a cold wind!

"Looks like that's your answer!" Xu Ning's eyes were cold, his feet slipped, and the one-handed dragon claw poked at the barrel in the middle. (To be continued......)
