Chapter 20: The Living Puppet

He looked at me a little uneasy, and hesitated to say, "I'll deal with it, you, no, it's hurt, right?" ”

"No, it's just that she's hurt." I replied quickly, and at that moment I felt something grow in his eyes when he looked at me, and I was too frightened to delve any further.

"As long as you're not hurt, that's fine." He spoke slowly, and his voice was not like a cold talk to the palpitation, but a little more cramped and uneasy, which made me more sure that he was interested in me.

Although I don't know much about the seven flavors of the world, I have more or less been exposed to them, especially the word love.

"Now that you're all right, it's time for me to go back, there's someone waiting for me" I said bluntly to break the silence, because if I don't say it, I'm sure he won't say it either, you have to ask me why I know, I can only say it's feelings! The feeling of a woman.

He was stunned for a moment, glanced at me, and then quickly turned his gaze away, and a mellow voice came, "Last night, Shu Xuanduo was offended, I..."

Before he could finish, I interrupted him and pulled out a smile, "It's out of the way, he didn't do anything to me"

Shu Xuan was the protector at that time, I didn't hear what he said at that time, I forgot it a long time ago, if you want to ask me what he said at that time, I can't remember a word now.

It's not that I don't care about him, it's that I have a bad memory, and I don't know if it's because of the lack of souls, anyway, I never pay attention to some small things.

When he turned around, I could clearly see that his good-looking brow was slightly furrowed, and his face was no longer as happy as before.

He hesitated, "Then I..."

"I'll go back first" I interrupted him again, I knew what he meant, he wanted to send me back, but I couldn't let him do it, even if I knew that he was interested in me, I couldn't give him hope, because I couldn't bear his love, I knew who I was, why should I go wrong.

He stopped talking and lowered his eyes, I didn't stop and left the house smoothly, on the way back I was thinking, I didn't go back all night, and I don't know if the Oriental Festival was looking for me, thinking about how to explain when I see him later, will he ask me where I went last night?

I was thinking about the Oriental Festival all the way, I didn't pay much attention to the surrounding environment, and when I arrived at the inn, I realized that something was wrong, and there were people coming and going on the street but there was no sound, looking around, the people on the street were weird.

They looked like puppets, their expressions were demented, their faces were bloodless, and they made stiff movements with their hands, and when they noticed that I had stopped, they didn't look back, they turned their bloodshot eyes and looked at me from the corner of their eye.

I felt that these puppeteers were not popular, which proved that they were not human, but they gave me the feeling that they were alive, like a half-dead state.

The puppets came to life

I was blown away by the idea.

It's a living puppet, but it's obviously a dead thing, how can it come back to life, it's really weird.

Through their eyes, I always feel that someone is watching me, and I don't like this feeling that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light.

Just as I was about to leave, the puppeteers lunged at me like crazy.

I saw that their eyes were no longer the same as before, and their eyeballs now stood out like dead fish eyes, and their bloodshot eyes were shining red, and they were grinning as if they were trying to eat people.

There were puppeteers all around me, and I jumped on the roof closer to me by the person who pounced on me, my heels not yet firm, and my waist was entangled in something.

When I looked down, it turned out to be a rope, the rope strangled my waist and hurt, and the other of the rope kicked in the hand of a puppeteer, he was very strong, and I was torn off hard.

I took advantage of my strength to flip backwards lightly, and I quickly hit a few ice edges in mid-air, but I didn't expect him to carry it hard without dodging or dodging.

Ice Ridge plunged into their chests, and there was not a drop of blood, and they did not stop because of this, they were still walking towards me, staring at me with dead eyes, and one of them in front of them took a short blade from his waist and held it in his hand, and the rope around his waist became tighter and tighter, so painful that I almost screamed.

Suddenly, someone grabbed me from behind, and the hand that held me was like an iron beating, and I didn't let go of it no matter how hard I struggled.

I cursed in my heart, this damn thing, it's really troublesome

I can't care so much about it at a critical juncture, the bright sword can't do it, although I once promised someone that I wouldn't kill innocents indiscriminately, but they are not people, and if they don't fight back, they will die at the hands of these puppeteers.

As the puppeteer approached me, I swung out with a sword, knocking off the short blade in his hand and shaving off his head as well, and the sword stabbed me in front of me with a beautiful sword flower, and the movement was fast and accurate, and the hand that held me was then released, and the person behind me fell heavily to the ground.

Bang bang bang ...

As soon as Chen's applause rang out, I turned around and saw a person walking from the side alley, a black cloak covering her tightly from beginning to end, and her figure was slightly petite, she should be a woman.

She said with a slight mockery, "It seems that after hundreds of years of exile, you are much smarter, heh..."

She sneered, then took off the hat on her head, revealing a good-looking face, black and shiny hair, fair skin, peach cheeks with a smile, and most importantly, a piece of jade hanging from her waist, a piece of ice flower hibiscus jade.
