Chapter 21 Wood Carving

"Forget it, let's make a phone call." Bai Jiayi couldn't help it and dialed Bai Minyi's phone.

"Hello?"

"Jiayi, we'll be there soon, you wait. Or can you go inside and take a stroll inside? Bai Minyi's hurried tone showed that the other party was coming in a hurry.

Bai Jiayi didn't think about it, nodded, and found that the other party couldn't see it, so she said, "It's okay, sister, where have you been?" ”

"Behind you." Tao Xuyang's voice came from the other side of the microphone.

Bai Jiayi turned around and saw a pair of beautiful people, to be precise, two people who were like immortals.

"You ...... This is? "At present, there is a popular style of painting, wearing a long dress and draping it with tulle, which is intended to be a Hanfu.

Looking at Bai Minyi and Tao Xuyang's obvious red couple Hanfu, with black patterns embroidered on the ends of the clothes, Bai Jiayi felt an indescribable anger.

She pointed to the two of them and said, "What is this doing?" ”

"I'm sorry, the company recently opened a new list, related to Hanfu, we ...... It is a model of the couple model. ”

"So, you're 45 minutes late for this?"

"But aren't we already here?" Bai Minyi held Bai Jiayi's hands, "Okay, don't be angry." ”

"I'm not angry, it's just that I don't like it." Appear like an outsider.

Bai Jiayi didn't finish speaking, but gradually weakened her voice.

When she usually goes out, she always likes to wear clothes similar to Bai Minyi, and then comb the same hairstyle.

This is a good look, giving Tao Xuyang an illusion, so that he can guess who Bai Minyi is.

But today, the two of them are in a different time and space from themselves, how can they make Bai Jiayi willing.

Tao Xuyang knew that Bai Jiayi was losing her temper again, so he had to take Bai Minyi's hand, take a step forward, and drag Bai Jiayi to the luxury counter on the first floor.

"Don't be angry, your sister didn't mean it, besides, how old is the person, and she still has a little temper like this, be careful that no one likes it in the future."

"If no one likes it, no one likes it, and there are no sisters and brothers-in-law." Bai Jiayi still had an aggrieved expression on her face, and her heart blossomed, she grabbed Tao Xuyang's hand and said, "Then, in order to compensate me for waiting for you for so long, is my brother-in-law a little expressive?" ”

"I know you're not a good ghost." Tao Xuyang smiled dotingly, scraped the bridge of Bai Jiayi's nose, he looked down at the cosmetics on the counter, and said, "Okay, what do you want, brother-in-law checks out." ”

"Howler! Sister, come and pick a gift, my brother-in-law said that he would pay for all the goods tonight. Bai Jiayi got a bargain, and she wouldn't show her fox tail immediately, she turned to Bai Minyi, who was standing on the side, and said.

Under the vigorous publicity of the salesperson, the three of them can be regarded as having gained.

Bai Jiayi, who deliberately changed into an antique costume, had her long hair coiled into a small bun by a golden hairpin.

The tassels on the hairpin swayed slightly as she walked, like butterflies falling on her hair.

Bai Jiayi looked at her re-applied makeup with satisfaction, squinted at Bai Minyi, and smiled: "It's so good-looking." ”

"Haven't you always been so good-looking?" Bai Minyi held her head, pointed it at the mirror, and said.

Cui Zifeng, who sold a lot of jewelry over there, turned his head and saw the interaction between the two, he pulled Huo Ziting's sleeve and said, "Look, isn't it Bai Minyi over there?" They're there too. ”

"Hmm." Huo Ziting followed Cui Zifeng's gaze, and after confirming that it was Bai Minyi's sisters, he nodded, "Do you want to shout?" ”

"Let's take a look...... Just take a look, it's all genuine. During the conversation, some guests reached out to watch, and Cui Zifeng greeted him warmly.

Mu Zhichen held the wood carving, walked from the elevator entrance of the building, put it in front of Cui Zifeng's stall, and said, "I'll go, this thing, there are ghosts!" ”

"What?"

But he said that after Mu Zhichen saw the wood carving, he spared no effort, and Cui Zifeng did not stop him.

The two put the wood carving in the back compartment of Mu Zhichen.

After Mu Zhichen went home, he directly carried the wood carving to his room.

Because the room and Mu Zhishen were face-to-face, naturally his actions could not escape Mu Zhishen's prying eyes.

So, Mu Zhishen sneaked into the room in the middle of the night after her brother was asleep and lifted the white cloth covering the wood carving.

The strange beast had a serious expression, staring at Mu Zhishen with blazing eyes, and I have to say that the carver's handiwork was so realistic, which made Mu Zhishen break out in a cold sweat for no reason.

Fortunately, Mu Zhishen didn't understand the value of wood carving, and hung the white cloth back casually.

"That's it?" Cui Zifeng smiled, "It's just that the carving is more realistic, where does it come from?" ”

"No, it's not done yet." Mu Zhichen took a sip of the mineral water handed by Huo Ziting and said.

Being frightened at night planted roots in Mu Zhishen's heart, and he thought that Mu Zhichen secretly put it on the desk in order to prevent himself from entering the room to attract himself to take a peek.

Therefore, he secretly observed Mu Zhichen's movements, and was almost bumped into by Mu Zhichen several times.

Finally, at a morning meeting, Mu Zhichen followed the board of directors to the large conference room to discuss future trends and indicators.

Mu Zhishen, who did not receive the notice to participate, discussed with his secretary, changed his clothes, returned to the house while there was no one at home, and sneaked into Mu Zhichen's room again.

This time, the wood carving was placed by Mu Zhichen on the collection shelf in the dark room of the study, and together with other collections, it fell asleep.

Mu Zhishen, who was empty, ran to the study again, opened the door of the dark room, and used the light of her mobile phone to illuminate the collections on the shelves.

He didn't turn on the light in the darkroom, as it would attract the attention of the nanny, so he simply closed the door of the darkroom after he had completely disappeared into the darkroom.

In the dark, he fumbled around the walls, trying to turn on the wall lamp.

As a result, he actually touched a hand.

The hand was small, like a child.

But Mu Zhishen knew that there were no children at home, even if they were children from relatives' families, at this point in time, either they were already going to school obediently, or they would find out and shout when they came in.

So Mu Zhishen endured the strangeness in her heart and calmly withdrew her hand.

Just as he retracted and crept a few steps forward, he heard a voice.

A sound similar to that of an ape.

Circling on the ceiling above his head, sometimes breathing in his ears, Mu Zhishen couldn't hold back anymore and shouted: "Who! ”

Who's pretending to be a god here!

Mu Zhishen took out her mobile phone and turned the light of the lamp to the maximum, and half of the dark room was brightly lit in an instant.

However, at this time, he saw a monster.

Yes, monsters.

Mu Zhishen's eyes widened, his body trembled slightly, he wanted to hold on to the wall and escape, but found that his body had already stiffened.

He didn't even feel anything, he could only "hear" his heart beating, and the muscles in his body let out a fearful roar.

He was scared, the uncontrollable expression on his face was trembling, he opened his mouth wide, and his head kept repeating his screams, but he knew that his throat was not making these screams, it was his own brain screaming.

Finally, he heard a sharp breathing, and it turned out that he had stopped breathing unconsciously.

Slowly, familiar sensations creep up from the soles of the feet to the faces.

Mu Zhishen felt that she was soaking wet, as if she had just taken a cold shower from the bathroom with her clothes on.

Cold beads of sweat soaked the clothes and stuck to the skin, giving off a disgusting smell.

It turned out that he was incontinent.

Mu Zhishen no longer had the heart to pay attention to her dirtiness, but quickly touched the button on the wall and turned on the light in the darkroom.

For a moment, the light of the lamp pierced his eyes, and in the brightness he had never adapted to, he first fell into darkness, and then dimly saw his surroundings.

The wood carving was in front of Mu Zhishen, the alien beast that looked like a rabbit and an ape opened its big mouth, its sharp teeth ran out of its mouth, and its sharp eyes stared at Mu Zhishen, and its body fell forward slightly.

Mu Zhishen knelt on the ground instantly, he raised his head tremblingly, looked around, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he slowly got up against the wall and ran out of the dark room.

"But I look cute." Cui Zifeng looked at the wood carving, the dodder on it was as Mu Zhichen described, serious and fierce, but there was no such vicious and bloodthirsty feeling, he frowned, "And then?" ”

"Then he called all of us back that day and said I was going to murder." Mu Zhichen rubbed her temples, she had a headache about this matter.

He naturally knew that it was impossible for an ordinary wood carving to produce such a big reaction, let alone kill a person.

It's just that he can't explain why Mu Zhishen has fear and fear after seeing the wood carving, maybe it's because the wood carving is too realistic? But he, a man of five years and three thicknesses, even if he is suddenly frightened, is a normal phenomenon, how can he be as out of shape as he is now.

At the same time, Mu Zhichen admitted that when he first saw this wood carving, he also had a fear of it, but he studied it day and night, but he felt that the strange beasts on the wood carving were not as terrifying as he imagined.

Therefore, killing a person through imagination is not necessarily impossible.

"Hey, what are you talking about?" Bai Jiayi slapped Cui Zifeng from behind and said.

"Yikes!" Cui Zifeng turned around, and after seeing the person clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief, "You scared me to death." ”

"How can it be so exaggerated." Bai Jiayi crossed Cui Zifeng and saw the wood carvings surrounded by the boys, and looked disgusted, "What is this, rabbits are not like rabbits, and monkeys are not like monkeys." ”

"Yes. A strange beast recorded in ancient books. ”

"Ancient books?" Bai Jiayi was puzzled, she didn't notice Mu Zhichen, but held the wood carving up and down, left and right to observe, then put it down, and said, "Hmm...... I don't understand. Forget it, Zifeng, I brought my sister and brother-in-law over. ”

"Hi, Zifeng." As soon as Bai Minyi finished speaking, she leaned over, her fluttering skirt looked like a fairy falling from the sky, which made Mu Zhichen's eyes light up, and he randomly noticed the person standing next to Bai Minyi.

This should be the brother-in-law that the girl said.

"Hello, my name is Mu Zhichen." In order to show his identity, Mu Zhichen stretched out his hand with grace and said to Tao Xuyang, "Welcome to your arrival." ”
