Chapter 052: Tearing the Rabbit
The one-day township drinking ceremony and the township shooting ceremony have finally come to an end. For Shu Hui, it was a matter of going out to watch a drama and sports meeting, and eating a meal of salt pork ribs.
There wasn't much to gain, only to settle the pending naming of the "system" last night. He had a brief understanding of the new permissions he could use and the new uses he had developed from the original equipment, and Jean would provide him with a fresh ingredient every day, but that wasn't a reward for the ceremony.
It's a pure accident to accept a useless little brother for no reason, and to come up with a closed-mouth Zen.
Shu Hui is still thinking about those legendary monks who practice closed-mouth meditation, they just don't speak, or really keep their mouths shut. What should I do when I keep my mouth shut, eating, drinking, and brushing my teeth?
Moreover, when facing someone like Qiaoqiao, who is inconvenient to directly pretend to be a ghost, how can you hide the fact that you don't open your mouth? As he was thinking like this, he saw Qiaoqiao's second sister coming around from the path between the bamboo forest and the garden.
glanced at Shu Hui with some cringe, and Liu Erniang saluted him and Cheng Huaimo: "People's daughter Liu Xijun, greet the two officials." Then he wanted to go to Rajojo and go back.
Qiao Qiao grabbed Shu Hui and didn't let go, her eyes glared at her second sister fiercely, probably throwing herself away and running away alone before she blamed her. In desperation, Liu Xijun took off a puppet from the belt behind his back and bewitched Qiao Qiao: "Sister, come to my sister, you see the rabbit is going to cry......" she said, pinching the rabbit's two front feet with both hands and rubbing them around.
Cheng Huaimo's breathing was a little short at this moment, and it seemed that it was difficult to resist the innocent and delicate words and actions of this girl when she teased the little babyβand more importantly, what did he hear? Qiao Qiao turned out to be her sister, and he knew Liu Xijun's name today.
Qiao Qiao didn't say anything with a face, but Shu Hui's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly beckoned Liu Xijun to come over. She is just the daughter of Liu Tingshi, she is still a civilian in her identity, and she also knows her identity, so she doesn't need to be too polite.
He thought that Liu Tingshi had already explained to Liu Xijun, so he would shout directly in her head, but he didn't expect to scare Liu Xijun enough. Now that she's here again, there's no need to think about it, this time she really knows.
Liu Xijun obediently moved in front of Shu Hui, feeling worried, thinking that her previous performance disliked the gods, and it was probably not a good thing to summon her now.
saw Shu Hui reach out and grab the puppet she was holding in her hand. And she was nervous, she didn't react, and she reflexively dodged it.
"Oops, how can I hide!" She stomped her foot in annoyance, and then hurriedly presented the puppet to Shu Hui, lowering her head and not daring to look at his black face at the bottom of the pot.
Patting away the hand that Qiao Qiao wanted to grab, Shu Hui's face turned slightly pale, and then with some satisfaction, he took the puppet with white eyes and red eyes, and looked at it carefully.
"Well, yes, the workmanship and materials are very particular. A layer of linen and a layer of raw silk, which seems to be filled with cotton? What's especially rare is that it's still very clean, and it's really a girl's toy. β
Then he was seen to secretly concentrate his attention, and shroud his hands with the dark shelter that had been transparent with the "dangerous operation" clearance......
"-hiss", and the poor little white rabbit was stopped and cut in two.
When Qiao Qiao saw this scene, her small mouth flattened one by one, and her eyes slowly turned red. But she didn't cry, she stretched out her nails and scratched Shu Hui's face, as if she wanted to avenge her former disdainful playmate.
However, with the transparent version of the dark shelter, Shu Hui, referred to as the transparent shelter, will be afraid of her?
He completely ignored Qiao Qiao's unbroken attack, put his left hand into the rabbit's newly opened chrysanthemum, and pulled out all the fillers inside and stuffed it into the arms of Liu Xijun, who was full of horror and thought that Shu Hui was hinting that this was what would happen to her next, and then put the gloves back into the shriveled rabbit.
Then, the other five people in the pavilion heard an exaggerated and ridiculous tone coming from Shu Hui's mouth, which seemed to open a slight gap-
"Ah~ Si Sina feels as if her body has been hollowed out!"
With this sound that was not human, the two front feet of the rabbit that Shu Hui put on his hand moved, and the head that did not have a mouth at all changed its shape strangely.
"Huh?" x5
There was an eerie silence in the room. Qiao Qiao is no longer making trouble, Liu Xijun is no longer afraid, and Cheng Huaimo is no longer thinking about spring...... Hongyu and Ao Guang glanced at each other, as if they somewhat understood what Shu Hui meant, but they were not very convinced.
She cooperated with the temptation and asked, "Young Master, are you a belly fairy?" β
Ventriloquist is a trick of ancient Egypt and was introduced to our country as early as BC. However, unlike what Shu Hui imagined, when his hand was exposed, he did not hide the strangeness of not speaking, but in the eyes of several people, he was really pretending to be a ghost.
For a long time in China, ventriloquism has been a trick of the wandering party, that is, the "belly fairy" as the red fish said. As the name suggests, they boast that they have talking gods living in their bellies. The approximate usage is: "What do the gods think you should be, not a liar myself." β
This statement is not only the reason why ventriloquism is no longer mysterious, but also the more intuitive and accurate names such as ventriloquism instead of "closed mouth" after the sound that resonates with the vocal cords and the fixed oral and nasal cavity is called ventriloquism, and it directly leads to the emergence of the realm of "Yuan Infant Manifestation" in the Ming Dynasty Taoist Inner Dan Technique.
When Shu Hui heard Hongyu's words, he couldn't pretend anymore, put the rabbit down and explained helplessly: "I don't have any talking immortals in my stomach, but there are a few ribs that can't speak." β
He made a big mistake this time. I thought that it would be easy to get away with ventriloquism and hand puppets, but don't say that he is a historical idiot, I am afraid that he will have to cross over with an old pedant who specializes in folklore, so that he can clearly know that this kind of thing is probably only recorded in the Northern Song Dynasty without checking the information, and the hand puppets are all things in the early Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, Shu Hui thought that the camouflage that could be used to hide people's ears did not exist at all in this era, just like an armored car using forest camouflage in the desert, it was just looking for a fight.
Figuring out what was wrong with him, Shu Hui pondered that although he pretended to fail in this wave, he might have a reward waiting for him if he explained the situation, and he would earn instead of losing.
So Shu Hui rolled his eyes, raised the rabbit monster and shouted: "Hahaha, I'm just a talking rib, look at which of you still dares to eat me!" β
"Poof~" Everyone was amused by his funny, and probably knew what kind of trick the belly fairy was estimated to be.
In addition to Qiao Qiao, the four people in the field knew that Shu Hui was an immortal, and he wanted to say that what trick was immortal, and the four of them would not doubt it at all, and at the same time, they also understood that if Shu Hui said that what kind of "immortal art" was a trick, then it might be really a trick.
Shu Hui took advantage of the situation and continued to explain the principles and skills of ventriloquist with the rabbit skin he called "Si Sinai".
In fact, he is also on paper, limited to watching two performances in a place similar to the Spring Festival Gala, and he is curious, and then he knows what he knows, and he doesn't even know if he exists.
At this time, he spoke fluent ventriloquist without hindrance, which was simply cheating. He was unashamed to take himself as an example, encouraging Cheng Huaimo and Qiaoqiao, who listened to him with great interest, to have nothing difficult in the world, as long as they were willing to climb.
Fortunately, even if Shu Hui doesn't know much and her impression is relatively vague, in fact, the principle of ventriloquism itself is not complicated. There may be techniques or something, but the key is to practice consistently.
Now that Qiao Qiao has accepted the setting of "ventriloquism", Shu Hui is too lazy to pinch the ragdoll skin that is already a little sweaty. Pluck it from her hand and give it back to Jojo so that she can follow her example and put her fingers into the rabbit's forelimbs and ears......
In this way, ventriloquist and hand puppets and their combinations officially appeared as entertainment. Shu Hui felt a new ball of light in the reward column, jumped off the drawing table to the ground with great satisfaction, and unnoticedly dusted off the dust that might exist behind him with the transparent darkness.
"Let's go, will Mrs. Liu also go to Yunsleeve Tower later?" Shu Hui finished giving the teacher's order, and asked very casually.
Liu Xijun pulled Qiao Qiao over and saluted Shu Hui, and then said goodbye: "Our sisters won't go, Qiao Qiao is still young, I want to take her back as soon as possible." After that, his eyes swept over the other people in the field one by one, cooperated, and left with the reluctant eyes of Qiao Qiao and Cheng Huaimo.
"Xiaolang, you're going to take me to play next time!"
There was still a faint voice of Qiao Qiao in her ears, Shu Hui touched her chin, and said with some confusion: "Even if this Liu Niangzi wants to say goodbye, shouldn't she wait until the door?" Let's wait here for her to go first, otherwise it will be a little embarrassing to run into it later. β
Over there, Liu Xijun walked up a few steps, and seemed to have come back to his senses, blushing and lowering his head, pulling Qiao Qiao with small steps, and quickly disappeared at the end of Cheng Huaimo's sight......
