Chapter 2: Encounters (4)

After eating, Zijin and the boy settled the bill and left the small restaurant, the street outside was still crowded, Zijin remembered that the boy told him his name just now, and said, "My name is Zijin, I see that the two of us are about the same age, I will call you directly!" ”

"Okay, then I'll just call you by name, Zijin."

"No problem, Persistence." After saying that, both of them smiled.

The two of them chatted while walking, Zijin asked Zhi about Xiao Ling, and Zhi told her the origin of Xiao Ling. So she started asking the deacon about dolls again.

"Two years ago I had a doll that my dad left behind, but one day the doll suddenly broke, do you know what's going on?"

"It should be that the energy is exhausted, and the puppet can't support it."

"If you use the energy crystal before the puppet's energy is exhausted, the puppet will be fine?"

"This has nothing to do with the energy crystal, the original function of the energy crystal is only to turn on the switch of the puppet's activities, and once the puppet and the owner make an appointment, the energy of the puppet's subsequent activities comes from the power of the master itself. I want to ask, how long will your father pass away? ”

"When I was five years old, my father left, and after that, Xiaoyou took care of me for ten years, and Xiaoyou was my dad's puppet."

"All I know is that after the death of the owner, the longest time the puppet has remained unbroken is only one year. Looks like your dad is a great guy! ”

"In my memory, my father has always been sick, but it's true that Xiaoyou is very powerful, she can do anything." After speaking, Zijin laughed.

At this moment, the front of the two suddenly became noisy, as if there was an argument between the craftsman and the customer, and the quarrel became louder and louder.

"Do you know who I am? Dare to deceive me with such inferior dolls? ”

"No, girl, I use a doll made of porcelain clay, this kind of doll is already very durable, and I already told you before the contract!"

"You said it, but look at it, I just tried to see if he could use magic after I finished the contract, and the puppet's hand was already cracked, and you did it too badly!"

"Wrong, people know that the dolls made of porcelain clay are already very durable, but you used it improperly, how can you blame me? We've got both people and goods. ”

"No, I want to return it!"

"My little ancestor, you have a contract with the puppet, and others can't use it anymore, so I can't return it."

"Okay, you profiteer, Miss Ben will do the right thing for heaven today." After speaking, the girl's mouth recited the incantation, "Sun, moon and stars, thunder and lightning, god of fire, listen to my orders, burn!" ”

I saw that the damaged puppet standing in the corner immediately sprayed fire at the craftsman who created it. The craftsman ran to the middle of the road in fright.

"Don't let him go, burn!" The girl commanded.

The flames shot into the middle of the road again, and several passers-by were affected, and their bodies were splashed with sparks, and the others standing in the middle of the road hurriedly avoided them, while the attacked craftsmen's hair was already charred and mushy, and their clothes were already torn with many holes.

The craftsman continued to escape, and as soon as he ran in front of Zhihe Zijin, another round of fire rushed over, and the craftsman was in a hurry and bumped into Zijin. Seeing the firelight, Zhi shot towards Zijin again, and hurriedly rushed over to block it with his back. When the attack wore off, he picked up Zijin and the injured craftsman.

"Zijin, are you alright?"

"It's okay, it's just that my hand was cut by a stone, and it hurts a little."

"Let me see." I saw a deep cut in Zijin's somewhat thin palm, and red blood dripped to the ground.

"It's fine. Thank you for holding out the flames for me, and your back wasn't burned, right? ”

"I'm fine, the little guy protected me just now and blocked it for me, it's made of jade mud, it's not afraid of fire."

At this time, the girl and the doll had already caught up with her.

"You two get out of the way! I'm going to teach this black-hearted businessman a good lesson! ”

The craftsman was frightened by the burning, and shrank behind Zhihe Zijin.

Zijin looked at the craftsman and then the puppet, and asked the girl, "Girl, how much did you spend to buy this puppet?" ”

"3,000 monthly coins."

"Did you check it all when you bought it?"

"That's, but who knows it's so undurable! Just buy it and it breaks. ”

Zijin observed the red-haired girl, her skin was very delicate, she was not a child of a poor family at first glance, she had a pair of golden eyes similar to herself, but these eyes were extremely confident. She also wears clothes that are displayed in clothing stores, which are worth a lot of money.

"Persistence, can I ask you about the price of a doll like this in the city?"

"Generally, the dolls made of porcelain clay are 1,000 to 6,000 coins per month, and the good ones can be sold for tens of thousands. Looking at the workmanship of this doll, it is still very good, and the general price is 3,000 to 5,000 monthly coins. ”

"Girl, you heard what this craftsman said, the puppets you bought are already worth it, if you don't believe me, you can ask the other craftsmen on the street. I see that the clothes you wear are also very valuable, so don't be embarrassed anymore. ”

"It's because I like this puppet, it just broke in my hands, can I not be angry~ It must be that this black-hearted craftsman is not skilled!"

Zhi walked next to the puppet and carefully looked at the fracture of the puppet, this crack was not accidentally made during the manufacture, but due to the damage caused by the owner's power entering the puppet during the contract, and the owner did not control it well.
