Chapter 7: The Puppet Doll (2000 words)

"It's a wooden doll, it's beautiful, but it's heavy." Gu Yinian secretly deducted a point for this doll, this weight of the wooden doll, is it really to play with it?

"What is it?" Su Jinyan knew that his eldest brother, who had traveled to the rivers and lakes for a long time and had not returned home, would not give ordinary things, but only wooden dolls, he couldn't guess what it was.

"Very—exquisite." Gu Yinian thought for a while and found an adjective, "The eyes can blink, and the limbs seem to be able to move." ”

Su Jinyan vaguely guessed what it was, and asked, "Look at whether there is a formation map under its feet or on its body." ”

Gu Yinian went to inspect the doll as he said.

When I took off the blue cloth shoes on the doll's feet, I saw a hexagonal figure, the lines were very complex, and the material was inlaid with similar colors to the doll's skin, and I couldn't see it if I wasn't careful.

"There is a hexagonal pattern on the sole of the right foot, Brother Jinyan, is this the formation?" Although Gu Yinian understands a little, he is still not sure.

"Yes, that's supposed to be a puppet's formation."

"Puppet?" Gu Yinian didn't understand this word.

"It's a doll that can listen to you, help you do things, and chat and play with you." Su Jinyan couldn't understand his eldest brother's thoughts, so he just gave a doll and a puppet, which couldn't let Gu Yinian play at all, so he could only hide it.

Hearing that she could speak, Gu Yinian was a little excited, a while ago she heard her brother say that his sister of the same scholar has a smart doll that can talk, can sing and teach poetry and English, and can also have some basic conversations, she is envious.

"And how can I get her to speak?" Gu Yinian poked the puppet doll in front of him, but there was no movement, like a dead thing.

Su Jinyan seemed to be a little embarrassed, and said after a long time: "You can activate it by dropping a drop of blood into the formation diagram, and then injecting your spiritual power." ”

"Blood?" Gu Yinian was stunned, did this mean that she was going to cut her fingers? She looked down at her fleshy hands, she was very reluctant, she was afraid of pain.

"Can you not let it bleed." She asked.

"That's the only way."

Gu Yinian pinched his fingertips, but he really couldn't get that hand.

"Nian Nian."

"I'm here." Gu Yinian rarely heard Su Jinyan call her name in such a serious tone, and couldn't help but sit upright, ready to listen to his next words.

"When the puppet doll is activated, it can chat and play with you, and it also has a certain attack power to protect you. But once it's activated, you can't put it in space, you'll have to find a place to put it. If the puppet has a small temper and doesn't listen to you, or even worse, you may not be able to handle it yourself, and there will be a lot of trouble. Su Jinyan said to her very seriously.

From ancient times to the present, I don't know how many have been injured by their own puppets, ranging from serious injuries to death.

Su Jinyan's words were like a basin of water poured down, pouring her excitement clean.

Because there are often people who send her things in various ways, occasionally they don't hide them well, and when they are discovered, they will always ask where they came from, and there are even a few times when they suspect that she has stolen other people's things, which makes her really irritable and tired to deal with it.

"Then I won't activate it." Gu Yinian looked at the doll on the table, a little regretful.

"Well, I'll go to your place in a few days, give you a space where you can put a puppet, and teach you how to use it." I don't want to dampen Gu Yinian's enthusiasm, not to mention that his brother's production must be a high-quality product, so it still has to be activated.

"Really?" Gu Yinian was very happy.

"Well, in a while, the latest National Day."

The two chatted for a long time before ending the call.

Su Jinyan stood in front of the bright floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down at the ant-like traffic.

Gu Yinian's family, I don't know if it has anything to do with that family, if there is, it's a little troublesome. Fortunately, Gu Yinian is still young and still has time.

Thinking of his unsmiling eldest brother again, I had a headache.
