Chapter 30: The Wooden Man
There were more and more embers floating down in the sky, Chen Xian stood in the dark corner of the alleyway, and from time to time he had to slap his clothes a few times, although those embers did not cause much damage to him, but they were always a little uncomfortable to fall on his clothes.
At this time, a strange cold wind was already blowing in the laneway.
This gust of wind is like a sudden outsider, and it is in the opposite direction to the cold wind that has been blowing in the alley, and it is incompatible with each other fiercely, and the location of the junction of these two gusts of wind happens to be on the wooden man placed on the ground by Lu Yisheng.
That's right, that wooden man is the boundary between the wind and the wind.
"There's too much yin here...... It's a little difficult to control it......" Lu Yisheng held the seal in his hands, his face was red as if he had been choked by someone's neck, and while he spoke, his forehead kept sliding down in cold sweat, "Don't drop the chain...... Little Luban, hurry up and get up......"
The wooden man sat motionless on the ground, his head drooping listlessly, and the whole wooden man looked like he was autistic, but unlike before, after Lu Yi cast a spell, hundreds of black lines appeared on its body like a network of blood vessels, and the position of its facial features also lit up red.
I don't know if Lu Yisheng made it on purpose, or if it has been a magic weapon like this since ancient times, the wooden man's red facial features look very similar to the facial expression of a line person, probably like this: (ー_ー)
Before, Chen Xian still felt a little tired and sleepy, but after witnessing Lu Xiansheng spelling to control the wooden man, the expression on Chen Xian's face became subtle, and he only felt that the comedy shows on TV were not as wonderful as Lu Yisheng's performance, because he found that Lu Yisheng actually had a hidden skill - Yan Yi.
In the dim alleyway, Lu Yisheng and the wooden man were in a stalemate.
Lu Yisheng ヽ(#'Д ́)ノ: "Why do you move me!! ”
Wooden Man (ー_ー): "......"
Lu Yisheng ヽ(#'Д ́)ノ: "I turned my face!! ”
Wooden Man (ー_ー): "......"
Lu Yisheng ヽ(#'Д ́)ノ: "You have to let me not get off the stage, right?" I'll light you with a lighter now! ”
Wooden Man (・_・): "......"
When he heard Lu Yisheng say that he was going to light it with a lighter, the expression on the wooden man's face changed, and he seemed to be very unwilling to deal with Lu Yisheng but had to take care of him, the wooden man reluctantly got up from the ground, and then looked at Lu Yisheng with his waist crossed.
Although it only had a simple line expression on its face, Chen Xian could still feel the taste of provocation.
"This is your magic weapon?" Chen Xian asked cautiously.
“...... Ah yes, it's okay to watch, right? Isn't it spiritual? Lu Yisheng was so ashamed that his face turned red, but he still pretended to be calm, "Our family's magic weapon is like this, boss, don't think about it." ”
"It's okay, I don't think much about it." Chen Xian nodded seriously, indicating that he would never think much about it, but the corners of his mouth curved slightly into a good-looking arc, and he seemed to be about to smile.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yisheng was also a little annoyed, and angrily walked up to the wooden man, grabbed its waist and lifted it up.
"Are you talking to me again, believe it or not, I burned you?"
The wooden man thought for a moment and nodded his head to show his belief.
"Now I'll send you a task, you give me a good job, if you can't do it well, don't blame me for using you as firewood." Lu Yisheng snorted coldly.
Hearing this, the wooden man's head was like a spinning top, and it rotated more than a dozen times in a row at three hundred and sixty degrees.
Lu Yisheng didn't understand the meaning of the wooden man, but Chen Xian did, and it meant-
Lao Tzu doesn't want to do it, you can find someone else.
At this point, Chen Xian almost understood that this wooden magic weapon seemed to be very spiritual, it had the ability to think independently, almost a living life.
Since it has the ability to think...... Then as an instinct that life should have, it should also have .......
Thinking of this, Chen Xian slowly walked over to Lu Yisheng.
"You little thing still dare to play tricks on me?!" Lu Yisheng held the wooden man with his hand and shook it wildly, scolding and scolding ten thousand in his mouth, "If it weren't for Lao Tzu, would you be able to live so nourishingly, and I would ..... if I didn't have four or six with me."
The wooden man was unmoved, not taking Lu Yisheng's words seriously at all, and his head was still the mocking appearance of the gyroscopic turn, buzzing three hundred and sixty degrees.
But suddenly, without warning, it stopped turning its head, and it found itself being held tightly by a cold hand, and a feeling of extreme danger came from the unfamiliar palm.
"If you don't obey, I'll eat you." Chen Xian half-bent over, leaned into the wooden man's ear and whispered, from a certain point of view, his voice was very gentle, and he couldn't hear the slightest hint of threat at all, "I haven't eaten a magic weapon made of wood yet...... I'm still curious about your taste. ”
In an instant, the wooden man gave up all his struggles and stayed in Chen Xian's palm very obediently, until he let go of his hand and released the wooden man, and it remained motionless.
Lu Yisheng looked at it gloating and asked, "Are you obedient now?" ”
The wooden man nodded busily, indicating that he was absolutely obedient.
"Let me tell you, this is the boss I recognize, he is a vegetarian and does not taboo to eat anything, if you don't listen to me...... Hmph, you're just waiting for him to be supper! ”
Chen Xian agreed with Lu Yisheng's move to threaten the wooden man, and he didn't mind at all that he would become the monster who ate everything in his mouth, in Chen Xian's opinion, this wooden man was just one word, owed!
Talk to it in a good voice, it doesn't take it to heart at all, and it won't take you seriously at all, only when you turn your face with it and kill it, this little thing is willing to communicate with you well.
"I'm not asking you to die, anyway, you know in your heart, I won't force you to do anything." Lu Yisheng said, took out the bamboo piece that he had taken out from the paper man's body from his backpack before, and handed it to the wooden man, "I suspect that the talisman on this is a ghost talisman, you smell it carefully, and try to find out the person who casts the spell along this talisman." ”
The wooden man took the bamboo piece awkwardly, leaned his head on it and pressed it tightly, and the red light on his facial features became flickering and dimming, like some kind of high-speed running machinery, and the frequency of the light flickering was very fast.
This state lasted for about half a minute, and the wooden man seemed to remember the smell of the talisman on this piece of bamboo, and it slowly moved its head away, looked up at Chen Xian and Lu Yisheng, and nodded heavily.
"That's it!" Lu Yisheng's eyes lit up, and his expression was very proud, "Boss, I'm awesome with this magic weapon!" ”
"Well, awesome." Chen Xian nodded and smiled, "With your help, I am more sure of this case." ”
Perhaps because he could hear Chen Xian's sincere tone, Lu Yisheng also laughed a little embarrassedly, scratched his face and said, "I just play an auxiliary role, you are the leader." ”
At this moment, the little wooden man standing on the ground suddenly turned around, and its two arms were raised high like antennas, and then suddenly pointed to the exit leading to the central garden, accompanied by the flashing red light on its face, and the electronic prompt sound of beeping in its body.
"At the front?" Lu Yisheng asked.
The wooden man nodded.
"Far away?" Lu Yisheng asked again.
The wooden man thought for a moment, nodded and shook his head.
"You can tell you how far we are from our goal." Lu Yisheng said with a frown.
"It's good that it can sense the location of the target, and it can understand if the distance is not accurate, so let's go and see it." Chen Xian said, raised his hand and rubbed his stomach, feeling a little uncomfortable in his stomach.
What's wrong with me?
Chen Xian was a little puzzled, and he couldn't understand what was going on.
It seems that my stomach is not very right since I ate that one last time, and there is always a feeling of accumulating food, is it sick?
"Boss? Are you feeling unwell? Lu Yisheng asked with some concern, seeing that Chen Xian's expression was not normal when he was holding his stomach, his heart also hung up.
In the current situation, if Chen Xian really had an accident, then he would most likely have an accident with Chen Xian...... He didn't have the confidence to escape through the house alone.
"It's okay, maybe it's a bit of a stagnant." Chen Xian said, and took out a stomach diet tablet from his pocket.
As soon as Lu Yisheng heard this, his heart suddenly became even more suspenseful, and countless pictures of Chen Xian turning into paper figures flashed in his brain.
It's not going to be eating those things..... Poisoned, right??
"What's wrong?" Chen Xian noticed the change in Lu Yisheng's eyes, and couldn't help but ask, "Is there something on my face?" What do you keep staring at me? ”
"Boss..... Do you feel tired? Lu Yisheng asked cautiously.
Chen Xian just thought about it for a while, and then he saw what Lu Yisheng was worried about.
"Nope."
Chen Xian said, and then seemed to feel that his answer was not perfect enough, and it was not enough to push back the bad luck in Lu Yisheng's words, so he finally added another word in a straight voice.
"Get out."
