In the next few days, Uncle and Coffin Liu went out to find the female paper man, and I had a messy past few days because of the conversation with Coffin Liu that night, and at the same time I was terrified.

I don't know how long this will last, but one night, Zhao Meijie, who has always looked down on me, suddenly came to me.

These days, Zhao Meijie has been living in my house, and my parents like her very much, but neither of us looks down on the other, and the number of conversations is only a handful.

I asked her what she was looking for me.

I thought she would come to ridicule me like before, but I didn't expect her to say something that shocked me incomparably:

"Zhang Da rascal, do you want to know where the paper man is?"

I was surprised, blinked and stared at Zhao Meijie, she knew where the paper man was? Unbelievable, you're not kidding me, are you?

It's messy enough, and this girl is still going to play tricks on me.

Zhao Meijie looked at me, didn't give me a chance to speak, and said solemnly: "Come with me, I know where the paper man is." ”

"You know?" I didn't believe it, and I didn't want to go with her.

Zhao Meijie nodded: "Do you want to come?" ”

After saying that, she ignored me, turned around and left.

I hesitated, I didn't know what to think, I obviously didn't trust her, but I still kept up with Zhao Meijie's footsteps.

Zhao Meijie took me to the paper shop in the west of the village, and the owner of the paper shop was an old man in his fifties, surnamed Li, who was very honest.

His craftsmanship is unique, and he is also famous in our village, and the funerals in the village and the paper figures tied are all from his hands.

As soon as Zhao Meijie and I walked to the door of the shop, we saw Aunt Zhang walking out of the shop. Aunt Zhang is a next-door neighbor, just in her forties, she still has charm, and she was the village flower of the village when she was young.

When Aunt Zhang saw us, she smiled and greeted us: "Come to find Lao Li?" ”

I nodded.

"At the top of the house."

After finishing speaking, Aunt Zhang left, and Zhao Meijie and I went directly into the house.

Li Laohan's shop was full of all kinds of paper figures, and to my creep, I found a row of female paper figures in the shop, and that row of female paper figures turned out to be the same as the paper figures I met.

My scalp was tingling, and it turned out that the female paper figure possessed by the female ghost turned out to be Li Laohan's piercing!

I was stunned in place, and in the end, it was Zhao Meijie who pulled me, and I reacted.

Li Laohan also came out, spoke to us enthusiastically, and was a very kind person.

After chatting for a while, I proposed to invite Li Laohan to drink, and Li Laohan smiled so much that even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes came out, and he readily agreed.

At the wine table, Li Laohan and Zhao Meijie drank one cup after another, to my surprise, Zhao Meijie looked like a weak willow, I didn't expect to be able to drink, even Li Laohan couldn't drink her.

Li Laohan was drunk by us, and his consciousness was a little unconscious, and he told us a lot of taboos about paper-making people.

"This paper man, you must not draw the eyes before burning, once you draw it, the paper man will come back to life, and the paper man can't see blood, and when you see blood, it will be turned into evil."

Zhao Meijie and I have never been in contact with this industry before, so we are very curious.

After Li Laohan drank wine, he couldn't stop talking.

"Our Li family has been a paper man for several lifetimes, and after my father left, the legacy left to me was this pile of paper people and paper horses, holding my hand before leaving, and telling me that this craft should not be lost."

Li Laohan chattered and kept talking.

I poured him another glass of wine and asked him about the paper woman in the house.

Li Laohan was a little drunk, and after thinking about it, he reacted, he half-squinted his eyes, and said, "You said a female paper man?" I copied it after the daughter of Xiao Yuanshan, the county seat of Ankang. I saw his daughter once, she was beautiful, and when I tied the paper man, I unconsciously did what she did. ”

That's how the paper figure came about!

Zhao Meijie and I were speechless for a moment, imitating other people's images and tying paper people, isn't this cursing people to death?

Moreover, when this old man Liu came up with wine, the whole person completely changed his appearance, and when he talked about people "beautiful", his eyes were very obscene.

He paused for a moment and said, "It's just that I didn't expect that the paper man didn't sell well, and it was a month before I sold one." ”

Just one?

I immediately reacted that the paper figure that was pestering me must have been bought from Li Laohan.

But who bought it?

I was about to ask who the buyer was, but Mr. Li was already drunk, drunk and lying on the table, unconscious.

Zhao Meijie and I glanced at each other.

I pushed Li Laohan's arm, but Li Laohan showed no signs of waking up. At this moment, Aunt Zhang next door came over again, she quickly helped up Li Laohan who was lying on the table, and complained: "Ouch, you can't drink so much wine!" ”

Seeing that Li Laohan was drunk like this, I knew that I couldn't ask anything today, so I simply said hello to Aunt Zhang and left with Zhao Meijie.

On the way back, Zhao Meijie and I have been discussing the matter of paper figures.

Zhao Meijie pursed her lips and said, "Zhang Xiaofan, it seems that the paper man who has been pestering you these days is estimated to have bought it from Li Laohan." ”

"Who would have bought that? Why are you pestering me again? I have no grievances with the buyer. I frowned.

Zhao Meijie said: "Someone must be trying to harm you." ”

When she said this, Zhao Meijie's tone was very firm, and I was instantly curious, how could she be so sure that someone was trying to harm me?

What makes me even more puzzled is how Zhao Meijie knew that the paper man was in Li Laohan's shop? My uncle and coffin Liu have been looking for several days, but there is no trace of the paper man.

I asked about my doubts, and Zhao Meijie said that she had been idle in the last few days, wandering around the village, and saw it by chance.

In this case, but Zhao Meijie has never seen the appearance of a paper man, how can she be sure that the paper person in the paper shop is the same as the one who pestered me?

Zhao Meijie said that she was not sure at the time, so she took me over to have a look, but she didn't expect to find out the clues.

I'm skeptical.

After coming back, Zhao Meijie asked me if I wanted to tell my uncle about this, I shook my head and said that it would be best to wait for Li Laohan to wake up tomorrow, and then we would ask clearly before making a decision.

The reason why I think this is because Li Laohan said that only one paper figure was sold, because his shop is in our village, and I suspect that the paper figure was bought by someone from our village.

Well, the whole people in our village are suspicious, including Coffin Liu and my uncle.

I can't startle a snake.

After listening to my decision, Zhao Meijie praised me for being very mature and thinking about problems.

Because of this incident, Zhao Meijie and I have a good impression of each other, and we don't hate each other so much, and I want to thank her for it, she has made a new breakthrough in the whole thing, and I don't have to sit still like before.

After arriving home, Zhao Meijie and I discussed it again, but we didn't come up with any useful results, so I simply asked Li Laohan again tomorrow.

……

The next day, I thought I was going to ask Li Laohan, so I got up early.

But before I could put on my pants, the door slammed open.

I hurriedly covered the mysterious area, only to see that after the door opened, Zhao Meijie rushed in, shouting as he ran: "Zhang Xiaofan, Zhang Xiaofan, something is wrong!" ”
