Chapter 477: The Paper Man Without the Finishing Touch
(Cat flutter Chinese) "What about people?"
Xin Xingxing seemed to have thought of something, and in addition to doubt, there was also a trace of fear on his face.
Turning her head, she glanced at Gu Feng's flesh-and-blood body and the four pitch-black phantom butterflies, and without saying a word, she plunged directly into the spring.
"Escaped?"
I was dumbfounded, something I hadn't expected.
"Let's go!"
The next moment, I gave Ryoko a look, no matter why Xin Xingxing fled, but one thing was certain, she must have felt the danger.
Ryoko quickly evacuated the cave wall, came to the spring, and plunged headlong into it.
I followed closely, and before entering the spring, I glanced back at Lao Liu, who didn't seem to be in a hurry, and walked slowly to the spring, with an indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth.
Thirty seconds later, I crawled out from the other end, and Ryoko pulled me up and said in a deep voice, "Xin Xingxing has run!" ”
"Let's go!"
We didn't delay and immediately retreated.
Came to the flint cave, Liangzi in front, I in the back, the two of us climbed up along the grass rope one after the other, and when we were halfway up, Lao Liu walked out of the passage.
He is still like that, he doesn't seem to be in a hurry, looking at him, it doesn't look like a pretend, but it looks like he is calm after being confident.
He wasn't in a hurry, and when I got to the top, he was grabbing the straw rope and climbing up, but he was a little fast, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that he was walking on the ground.
According to conservative estimates, it took him twice as long to climb up as he did with Ryoko.
Standing on the top of the mountain, you can see that Xin Xingxing has returned to the entrance of the village, she is walking in a hurry, her legs are a little weak, and her waist is twisted and twisted, this posture is very similar to a snake moving forward.
"Lao Liu, why do you want to warn?"
Liangzi and I didn't follow, we deliberately waited for Lao Liu, and when he came up, I asked directly.
"What warning?" Lao Liu and I were sloppy, and after throwing down such a sentence, he quickly went down the mountain to catch up with Xin Xingxing.
He didn't want to talk to me at all.
"Brother, I saw Xiaowei before!" Ryoko spoke suddenly.
"Hmm!"
I didn't know how to interface for a while, so I snorted randomly.
The relationship between Ryoko and Xiaowei is still messy.
Last time, Xiaowei ruthlessly severed the relationship, and the words were very clear, that time I thought that Xiaowei was controlled by Taoist refining, and I didn't think much about it.
But now it seems that it is not like that.
The Taoist priest was seriously injured and hid in the hot spring village to recuperate, and he had no time or energy to control Xiaowei, that is to say, Xiaowei had the ability to be independent.
I can't say these things to Ryoko.
"Xiaowei said that she didn't want to be separated from me, but she was forced to do so!" Ryoko muttered, her eyes bloodshot and her fists clenched.
"Hey, hurry down, it's not safe up there!"
Lao Liu turned around and roared at this time, and after roaring, he trotted away.
"Brother, I see Xiaowei again!"
Ryoko shuddered and woke up.
"Let's go!"
I subconsciously glanced at the flint cave, and I didn't know when a mist rose below, so I pulled a handful of bright seeds and ran down.
Obviously, Liangzi caught the road again just now, and Lao Liu helped me again.
When I returned to the village, I immediately went to find Xin Xingxing, she was not at home, and there was no one at Xin's second aunt's house, except for the slightly dilapidated yard, there was nothing.
I thought about it for a while, and when I returned to Lao Yaotou's shop, no matter how slow Lao Yaotou was, he always knew and knew the situation from the people in the village.
In the small hotel, Lao Yao was napping behind the counter, and his wife was leaning next to him, with a faint smile on her face and squinting her eyes.
I knocked lightly on the counter, woke up Lao Yao, and asked, "Lao Yao, where is the one surnamed Liu who came in the morning?" ”
"Him!"
Lao Yao dragged his head for a long time, carefully removed his wife's head from his shoulders and put it on a cushion, and then walked out from behind the counter and said, "I'll take you to him!" ”
Lao Yao's speed was not fast, he carried his hands on his back, slowly led the way in front, and said in a strange tone, "Lao Liu, don't look at him as a gambler, he has made himself a family wall, and he doesn't even have a person to talk to, but he has a good hand!" ”
Liangzi and I didn't say anything, but I was more curious, why did Lao Yaotou talk to the two of us about this?
Since we met, even if it was to rent his house, he rarely took the initiative to talk to us, and this was the first time he took the initiative.
"Lao Liu will tie paper, the nearby ten miles and eight villages, which does not praise his craftsmanship, the paper people he tied out have a kind of spirituality, they all say that they have bought it is good, and they say that they have used it!" Old Yao Tou said slowly.
"Wait a minute, you said you used it too?"
The first time I interrupted Lao Yaotou, paper figures are burned for the dead, and what can be said to be good can only be dead people, that is, ghosts.
"yes!"
Lao Yaotou turned around slowly, his eyes were a little dazed, and he muttered, "The people below have all said that they will make dreams, and some will personally go to Lao Liu to place an order." ”
"It's okay, let's go!"
Looking at those cloudy old eyes, I inexplicably didn't want to ask more, so I waved my hand.
"Oh!"
Old Yao nodded stunnedly, turned around and stepped forward again.
The village is not big, even if Lao Yaotou walked very slowly, ten minutes later, we also arrived at Lao Liu's house.
The door of Lao Liu's house is very broken, half-covered and half-hidden, and there are a few paper figures in the courtyard, and the paper figures are colored, but they are not eye-catching.
"This is Lao Liu's family, if it's okay, I'll leave!" Lao Yao pointed to the small courtyard, ignored me and Liangzi, and walked back with slow steps.
The two of us didn't care, pushed the door in, and looked carefully at the paper figures in the yard.
There were six paper figurines, three boys and girls, and three adults.
It is a little different from ordinary paper shops, and many paper figures in paper shops are framed with colored paper, but in this case, the color on the paper people is painted.
The heads, feet, limbs, and limbs of these paper figures were colored everywhere, except for the eyes, where they were blank.
There is a saying in the paper-binding world called paper-binding eye-catching, eye-catching has a spirit, which means that there are some capable paper-binding craftsmen who can give souls to paper people.
It seems that Lao Liu is likely to be such a person, which I didn't expect.
"Why are you here?"
was looking at it intently, and a familiar voice came from outside the door, Lao Liu came back.
I turned around and found Lao Liu standing at the door with two packets of cooked food and a bottle of wine, still with that indifferent expression on his face.
"It's okay, look at you!" I looked at him and said.
"Drink?" Lao Liu shook the wine in his hand.
"Drink some!" I nodded.
Lao Liu took out a broken table from the house, got a few stone benches, put the dishes on the table, and said, "You guys are in a hurry, I have a little spare money in my hand, so I got some food!" ”
It is said to be eaten, but it is actually a few slices of dried tofu rolls and some peanuts.
The dish was not plated, the cup was a porcelain cup with a piece missing, and the wine was a two-pot head, Lao Liu filled me with a cup, and gave himself a full cup, so he couldn't wait to take a sip and let out a satisfied moan, "It's so cool!" ”
I also took a sip, and after putting the glass down, I stared into his eyes and asked, "Why are you warning today?" ”
"What kind of warning?" Lao Liu chewed peanuts in his mouth and asked vaguely.
"Once inside the flint cave, once outside the cave!" I said.
"What is inside and outside the cave, I don't understand!" Lao Liu slurred and took another sip of wine.
"If you don't drink it, if you don't drink it, I won't pour it for you!"
After drinking the wine in the cup, Lao Liu filled himself and looked at me nervously, afraid that I would say that I would drink again.
"Don't drink it, you drink it!" I waved my hand, this Lao Liu is interesting, it seems that he won't admit it.
"Then I won't pour it for you!" Lao Liu said as he protected the wine, as if he hadn't drunk it for a long time.
"What do you see in the illusion created by the Phantom Butterfly?" I made a surprise attack and suddenly asked.
"I won money, won a lot, a lot of money!" Lao Liu was stunned and grinned.
"But then I woke up from a dream, and it was all fake!"
The next moment, Lao Liu scolded and snorted a glass of wine.
I feel a little emotional, Lao Liu's acting skills are too good, just like the real thing.
"Why don't those paper figures have the finishing touch?"
I shifted the subject to the paper figures in the courtyard.
"What if they run away?" Lao Liu said with a serious face.
"Will the paper man still run?" I asked with a smile.
"I don't know if other people's will run, but my paper man will really run!" Lao Liu came over, his eyes widened, and a few bloodshots popped out of his white eyes.
