Chapter 15 Paper Man Paints
After the village chief did this, someone immediately stood up and pushed his child to the village chief, and when the village chief paid the money, he stood there and counted repeatedly, ignoring the sound of his child crying.
However, Mr. Yin Yang only chose two boys, both of whom were four or five years old, just one boy and one girl.
The others who were not selected looked at Mr. Yin and Yang with stunned expressions.
Everything was ready, and all the people withdrew from the ancestral hall, leaving only the two boys, one left and one right, guarding the door of the ancestral hall.
Ye Kun whispered next to me: "Ziyang, be careful for a while, when those two people make paper figures for you, you must remember that you must not let them draw ......"
Before Ye Kun finished speaking, he was pulled away by others.
The two men quickly took out the beautiful candy from their arms, but the candy exuded a strange smell, which seemed to be very sweet and seemed to be wrapped in a foul smell.
They gave the two candies to the little child standing outside, and then the door of the ancestral hall slammed shut.
I stood there with a confused face, and I saw the two Mr. Yin and Yang touching my head with a smile, one of them Mr. Yin and Yang had very gentle hands, very delicate, and looked like a woman, but his chest was flat, and he should be a man.
The Mr. Yin and Yang looked at me and said, "Don't be afraid, little friend. ”
"Magnolia, less nonsense, here we go." Another Mr. Yin and Yang reminded him.
"Yumo, I just look at this kid and say a few more words." Yulan turned her head and said to Yumo.
I noticed that Yumo looked more like a man with five big and three thick, and Yulan had some feminine softness, I wondered if these two goods should be a family, right? Just thinking about it makes me feel chills all over my body and goosebumps are about to rise.
Yumo sat me on a stool, and they started making paper figurines.
Magnolia's hands were very skillful, and her delicate hands flew up and down, and she soon made a skeleton about the size of me out of bamboo. Then, Yumo took the paper and slowly smeared it on the paper figure.
In less than 20 minutes, I saw a paper figure appear next to me, and the paper figure was exactly the same size and body as me.
Even Magnolia made clothes for the paper figure that were similar to those on me.
When I looked at the two of them who painted paper, I kept thinking in my heart, Ye Kun seemed to want to say something to me when he left just now, but he was pulled away before he finished speaking, what did he want to remind me?
What to draw?
I was thinking about it when I heard Magnolia say to me, "Kid, can you do me a favor?" ”
I turned my head to look in the direction of Magnolia, but I saw a paper figure about my size appear in front of me. The paper man's face has been drawn with a nose, eyebrows, and a mouth. Bar. It's lifelike, but without eyes.
Looking at such a paper figure, I always felt chills all over my body, and I couldn't help but glance in the direction of Yulan, but Yulan smiled at me and said, "What are you still doing in a daze?" You go paint your eyes now, and I'll give you candy. ”
Magnolia really coaxed me like a child, and took out a lot of candy from her arms, those candies are the same as the candy just given to the boy, the packaging of the candy is very exquisite, but each candy exudes a strange smell.
At first, I was very disgusted with such candy, but I don't know why, when Yulan put the candy in front of me, I actually wanted to eat it so much that I even drooled.
Magnolia directly dialed a candy and put it in my mouth, and it tasted a little weird.
I couldn't help but spit out the candy. A hint of gloom flashed on Yulan's face, and the speed was very fast, so I didn't notice it for a while, and Yumo on the side pushed me very unhappily, and stuffed a brush into my arms: "To paint your own eyes, it is difficult to draw the skin and bones, the most difficult thing to draw is the human eyes, you paint yourself is the best, only if you draw it yourself, that will work." ”
I don't know what that means, but I was very upset by his push, and Yumo was very impatient when he talked to me, and he pushed me, so I just stood there and didn't move.
Yumo's voice is soft. softened: "Wei Ziyang, we are for your mother, can you figure it out, if your mother becomes a demon, what should you do?" At that time, the whole village will die, do you really want them all to die? ”
I froze on the spot, and for a long time, I didn't want to move.
Yulan whispered in my ear: "Wei Ziyang, if you want your mother to be well, you must listen to us." ”
I walked in the direction of the paper man, I didn't learn to draw, I can usually draw a phoenix as a chicken, at such a level, can also draw a person's eyes well?
Even if Yulan and the others believe it, I don't believe it myself.
I walked up to the paper figure and started drawing, but when I drew the first stroke, I suddenly found that I was like a cloud, and I naturally drew the rest of the details.
I was like a master painter, and I was able to finish painting both eyes at a rapid pace. When I took a step back and looked into those eyes, it felt as if the whole paper figure had come to life, except that the other person was made of paper.
Looking at each other with such a paper figure with blush on his face, especially the appearance of the other party, which was exactly the same as me, made me hairy, and felt a little uncomfortable, I stood there and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Just when I was stunned, Yumo quickly pulled out a handful of hair from my head, grinning my aching teeth, and then he tied my hair and a gray hair together, and put it in a yellow paper bag.
I looked at Yumo with a puzzled expression, wondering what he meant by doing this?
Yumo turned his head to look at me, with a smug look on his face. He rubbed the colored paper bag twice, and I saw that the bag was burning in his hand.
Immediately afterwards, Yumo put the paper bag into an iron plate, and then put the iron plate under the nose of the paper man.
To be honest, the smell was really indescribable, and I almost cried because I was smoked.
Yumo and Yulan both had a look of reverence on their faces, and Yulan began to chant scriptures on the side, not knowing what he was reading, buzzing like flies, very annoying.
The yellow paper was wrapped in an iron plate and burned out, and all the black smoke from the burning went into the nostrils of the paper man, who looked like a living person and inhaled all the black smoke into his nose.
When the yellow paper bag burned out, the paper man suddenly rolled his eyes and smiled at me.
I was scared: "It moves, it just moved, and it smiled at me." ”
Yulan said to me helplessly: "Wei Ziyang, you can see clearly, this is a paper man, how can he move?" ”
I looked carefully at the paper man, as Magnolia said, the paper man really didn't move, standing there dumbfounded, like a mechanical puppet, at this time, I finally put my mind at ease.
After doing all this, Yulan gently stopped the two little boys standing at the door, took out the candy from her arms, patted the back of the heads of the two little boys, and said to them: "You can go now, go home, go home and eat." ”
The two children hurriedly took the candy and ran away happily.
At this time, Yulan called the village chief. It didn't take long for the village chief to come with everyone, and the villagers were standing guard nearby.
But I didn't see Ye Kun in the crowd.
Yulan said to the village chief: "The matter here is basically settled, and the rest of the things will be completed by us, you don't need to stay here, go back all, and we will notify you when we solve the matter of the ghosts." ”
The village chief was grateful, shook Yulan's hand and said, "Thank you, master, I am really grateful to be able to help our village solve such a problem." ”
The village chief said that he was going to bow again, and he was about to kneel again, but Yulan hurriedly helped the village chief up and waved her hand. The village chief then left with the rest of the people.
By the time they had all dispersed, it was already dusk.
Yumo put on a strange posture on his hand, and suddenly roared: "Get up!" ”
The man's voice was so loud that it startled me, and I was about to speak when I noticed that the paper figure stood up and staggered out the door.
It was the first time I saw such a scene, and I was stunned for a while, and even felt a little scared, that person who could only walk when his body made a creaking sound, like the rattan and joints of the body. The sound of rubbing out is very uncomfortable to listen to.
Yulan saw that I was scared, so she explained to me next to me: "Ziyang, this is actually a little trick of Mr. Yin and Yang, it's not that the paper man is alive, don't worry, he will help us find where the ghost is, so now, just follow the paper man, be careful not to get too far away from him." ”
As she spoke, Yulan followed the paper man, and I saw that everyone ran away with the paper man, so I naturally followed them.
When I came out of the ancestral hall, my double. My legs were like I was filled with lead, and I almost fell to the ground at that time, if it weren't for the magnolia next to me, who quickly helped me, I'm afraid I would have fallen into the mud.
I reluctantly smiled at Magnolia, who patted me on the shoulder and said to me, "Be careful." "I don't know why, when Magnolia said this to me, I always felt that he had a very weird smile on his face.
