Chapter 21: The Eve of Destroying Evil Spirits
Because many of the things that the little carpenter will do tomorrow need to be purchased temporarily, and these things are very exquisite, the little carpenter had to work with Steward Hu until midnight, and he only lived in He Mansion that day.
In fact, this whole set, in the past, was carried in his wooden box, but unfortunately after the master's accident, it was never made up.
Many of these things need to be customized, and the details are different, and they can also determine the final effect, not sloppy at all, the little carpenter and Steward Hu were dry-mouthed, and he didn't know how much tea he drank, so he barely let Steward Hu remember these things.
Fortunately, Jinguancheng is the capital of Xichuan Province after all, and it is also one of the most important cities in the southwest.
He Fu has money, and it is not a problem to come and buy these things.
After finishing this, the front yard was still blowing, and the little carpenter went to wash his face, returned to the guest room, and saw that Gu Baiguo had already fallen asleep.
He looked at Gu Baiguo who was sleeping, reached over, covered her with the quilt, and then sat on a chair not far away, untied the cold snow knife, and then slowly pulled it out.
The blade is sharp and full of light.
He took out a piece of fine velvet leather from his bosom and slowly wiped the long knife, a little preoccupied.
For this knife, the little carpenter's emotions are very complicated, on the one hand, he is extremely fond of Hanxue, after all, this knife has a origin, it is also sharp, and it seems that there is a will to remain in it, it is temperamental, but it is very suitable for his mind.
On the other hand, this knife was given by Cheng Lanting.
Although he doesn't hate Cheng Lanting as much as Yong Deyuan, he still doesn't like this man who is ambitious, has means, and has a deep city, but he still doesn't like it very much.
This kind of "dislike" can be said to be jealous and fearful, and it more or less carries a sense of disagreement.
But it is undeniable that the Cold Snow Knife is still one of the few trustworthy objects in the current complex situation after all.
He can't do without it.
The little carpenter wiped the knife in a complicated mood, but Gu Baiguo, who was sleeping on the bed, stretched his waist, sat up with a yawn, and asked the little carpenter: "Brother-in-law, are you back?" ”
Gu Baiguo woke up, and the little carpenter pulled out of his contemplation, hurriedly put the knife into the sheath, and then said with a smile: "Yes." ”
Gu Baiguo is such a clever little girl, just like a demon, she suddenly saw that the little carpenter had something on her mind, and asked directly: "What, are you worried that you won't be able to get rid of other people's arrangements in Hefu?" ”
The little carpenter smiled, and his smile was very confident, and then he said, "I have never been worried about this. ”
At this moment, the little carpenter has already eaten all the "Luban Quanjing", and he feels that even if he arranges this disgusting person, he is the authentic successor of Luban Sect, he is full of confidence, not to mention those Jianghu warlocks who have learned three melons and two dates.
Gu Baiguo asked again: "That's the person who is worried about Pan Zhiyong and Meizu?" ”
The little carpenter didn't want to show Gu Baiguo the fragility in his heart, so he said with a grin: "I'm just thinking, I'm going to go to the Great Snow Mountain soon, and I may have to see your sister then, I don't know what kind of person she is?" In addition, I'm also worried, if your uncle Gu Xicheng doesn't like me, what can I do? ”
He deliberately pulled the topic away, and Gu Baiguo had never talked much about her sister Gu Chanyi before, but at this moment, after being silent for a while, she said to him: "My sister, she is very beautiful, and she is the most beautiful woman in the past fifty years in the Great Snow Mountain. ”
Yes?
The little carpenter was a little surprised, staring at her little face, not quite convinced: "Don't lie to me." ”
Gu Baiguo said: "What did I lie to you about, you will know it when you see it." ”
The little carpenter didn't think much about it, and said beautifully, "That's good, that's good......"
He had always been worried that his future wife would be an ugly, fat, and lazy girl, and when he heard Gu Baiguo say this, his mood suddenly improved a lot.
Even if it's not the first beauty in the past fifty years, as long as it's about the same, otherwise you won't be able to kiss your mouth with a mouthful of teeth.
When he thought of "kissing his mouth", the little carpenter couldn't help but think of Su Ciwen.
That tastes, oops......
The little carpenter was preoccupied, but he was interrupted by this charming thought, and he couldn't help but construct many scenes of "tenderness like water, good times like dreams" in his mind, and remembered all kinds of things when he was bewitched by the evil spirit.
After a while, he hurriedly stopped, snuffed out his thoughts, and hurriedly said to Gu Baiguo: "Sleep, sleep, I have to work tomorrow." ”
He was exhausted from talking to Steward Hu today, lay on the bed, and fell asleep in a daze after a while.
On the contrary, Gu Baiguo couldn't sleep, she was lying next to the little carpenter, in the dark, a pair of big eyes flickering, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a long while, she suddenly spoke: "Brother-in-law, you say...... If, I mean, the snowy mountains can't cure you, then what can you do? ”
The little carpenter said in a daze: "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky......"
Life and death are fateful, wealth is in the sky?
Gu Baiguo muttered these eight words in his mouth repeatedly, until he heard a slight snoring from the young man next to him, and then he was relieved.
She said slowly in an inaudible voice: "Brother-in-law, if you die, I won't live alone......
There was nothing to say all night, the little carpenter was a young man, energetic, he slept for a while, he was energetic again, he stretched his waist beautifully, and saw that Gu Baiguo was still sleeping, and the tiger skin fat cat was lying in her arms shamelessly.
The little carpenter covered Gu Baiguo with the quilt, got up lightly, went to finish washing, and looked at the face in the basin before remembering that he was wearing a human skin mask.
This thing is very good, it doesn't need to be washed with that potion, and no matter how you rub it, it won't show flaws.
After he got up, he stood in the small courtyard of the guest room for half an hour, and then performed some routines, moved his body, and the housekeeper Hu also came to the door.
When Steward Hu saw him, he first asked very politely about the meal, and then asked about the things that needed to be prepared.
The little carpenter gave him a list, and some of the more common things, such as incense candle ashes, new grave floating soil, fresh black dog blood, and black donkey hooves, etc., he could get them, but as for the customized things that the little carpenter asked for, such as candles for qi detection, they did not have them, and they had to be made of raw materials.
This thing is very complicated, what is soaked in butter in dansha, rush grass, mutong, qu wheat, psyllium, kneaded into rope, and the castrated buffalo oil ointment, etc., these are very particular......
Steward Hu worked all night for these things, and by this morning he hadn't closed his eyes, and his eyes were red, as if they were oozing blood.
The little carpenter was not ambiguous, and when he got what he could, he went straight to work on it.
Some of these things were made by himself before, and some were bought by time-honored brands - but he also knows how to make time-honored things, but the effect is not as good as that of the other party, and it is more troublesome.
Now that everything is up, even if it is trouble, he admits it.
What's more, there are many channels in Hefu, and they can also get some special things.
When the little carpenter makes these, he can keep an extra amount of weight, and when he runs out of preparations, he carries some by himself, and if he needs to use them in the future, he doesn't have to be so troublesome.
After a day, by the end of the evening, it was finally ready.
During this period, Gu Baiguo showed her face twice, and just came over to take a look, but she was not too interested in these, and she didn't dare to wander around, for fear of being bumped into by Pan Zhiyong, who came over suddenly, so most of the time, she hid in the guest room and used the tiger skin fat cat to relieve her boredom.
Poor tiger skin fat cat, it is fierce and resolute in the face of evil, but in the face of Gu Baiguo, it is like a stuffed toy, wanting to cry without tears.
After making preparations, the little carpenter measured with a soft ruler according to yesterday's memory, calculated with branches, and then used an ink fountain to mark several places that might go wrong.
He Wu was very busy welcoming guests in the front yard, and when the little carpenter followed Steward Hu, he saw a familiar figure on the side of the spirit shed.
That person was Miss Su from Huzhou.
Su Ciwen.
It stands to reason that he should be very happy to meet his old acquaintance in another country, but the little carpenter hesitated, but did not choose to step forward.
First, he is wearing a mask at the moment, and it is difficult to reveal his identity.
Second, there was something more or less wrong between him and Miss Su Ciwen, although the little carpenter didn't think about it, he instinctively felt that it was better to have as little contact with Miss Su as possible.
Even if he was covered by a skin mask, he had been with Su Ciwen for too long, and he was afraid that his figure and some actions would be seen by the other party, so he waited until Miss Su left before he followed Steward Hu over and talked to He Wu about exorcism at night.
He Wu was very concerned about this matter, and after chatting with the little carpenter, he patted his chest and promised that he would fully cooperate.
After being assured, the little carpenter was relieved, went to a few more venues to rehearse, and then waited.
He had to wait for the middle of the night to come.
At that time, the yin energy overshadowed the yang energy, and it was the time when the evil energy haunted.
Gu Baiguo was worried about being bumped into, so he finally chose to hide in the room.
After a long wait, it was finally almost time, and the little carpenter had prepared all the tools and was preparing to open the altar, but he didn't expect He Wu to rush over from the front yard with a few people.
The little carpenter looked up and saw Pang Zhiyong coming.
Not only him, but also a person he is very familiar with, but it was the woman who sat next to Xu Meiniang in the box on the second floor of the Laoxi Teahouse that day.
That is about ten years old, a bewitching and beautiful woman.
