Chapter 63: The Puppeteer's Gathering
The copper puppet saluted Li Xiaohei slightly, she was a woman, and her movements were like a woman, and her actions were fluttering. It's a pity that the copper skin wrapped around her outside is seriously decayed and her image is miserable. In between the salutes, the patina fell.
Although I don't know how the copper puppet escaped the two stewards, it is obvious that this Xiaohong still has some means.
Li Xiaohei returned the salute and said: "You saved my life, I didn't repay you for saving you, after all, you were injured because of me." ”
If there is kindness, you will repay it, this is Li Xiaohei's criterion.
Li Xiaohei asked, "Is there any way to restore the purple copper skin on this body?"
The puppet shook his head. The formation in the warehouse can only repair the ordinary damage, but there is nothing that can be done about the decay.
Li Xiaohei took out the golden pole and asked, "Can you use this?"
Seeing Jin Zhiji, the puppet took a few steps back and shook his head again and again. It seems that even the puppets are afraid of the power of the golden extreme.
So, Li Xiaohei had nothing to do.
There are still puppeteers in this world, although they are not as powerful as the puppeteers of the year, and there is no way to create super puppets that can move mountains and reclaim the sea, but Li Xiaohei thinks that there should not be much difference in the production of puppets.
After routinely inspecting the fermented liquor and hiding the copper puppets in the cellar, Li Xiaohei decided to visit some puppeteers.
To this day, puppeteers are not an unpopular profession.
At the moment when the puppeteer is at its most declining, creating a puppet can only engage in some simple activities and is not taken seriously.
Later, a clever puppeteer created some elaborate puppets capable of cleaning the courtyard and serving tea and water. These puppets are exquisitely packaged and given a very high price, and the demand is outstripping supply!
So from that day on, the profession of puppeteer was associated with luxury.
Because of this, it is not so easy to ask to meet a puppeteer, most of them do not like to go out, do not like to deal with people, and have gloomy eyes. Because I'm always in contact with puppets, it seems that people have become a little strange. However, Li Xiaohei didn't come to try lucky, he had already heard that a puppeteer's meeting was being held here.
Even the most withdrawn puppeteers don't always work behind closed doors, they get together to exchange experiences. This time it happened to be held at the Moon Gate, and today is already the last day.
Li Xiaohei arrived in a hurry, and there were not many people in the huge venue. A few days ago, all the well-known puppeteers took the stage to show off their latest puppet achievements. Today's puppets are not as human and lifelike as they were back then, but puppeteers have always tried their best to get closer to those days. Whenever there is a small improvement that makes the puppet more human-like, it will make the puppeteer ecstatic.
And this last day, as the final stage, will be left for the unknown puppeteers to show off their results. Although there are not many people watching it, there are still some puppeteers who have found an opportunity here.
At this time, in the middle of the venue, a sloppy old man was giving a loud speech, and there was a large magic puppet beside him, taller than ordinary people, covered in iron armor.
The eyes of the other puppeteers around him were disdainful and smiling, but none of them were interested.
I only heard the old man continue: "In ancient times, the puppet was extremely powerful, with rare ore as the core, covered with metal, and then driven by the formation The power is infinite, and the strongest can even move mountains and reclaim the sea, and even compare with the immortals......!
"Hahahaha!"
Before the sloppy old man's words were finished, a burst of chic laughter came, and on the stands, a young man cranked a folding fan and laughed loudly, and several followers around him were even more disdainful.
The old man stopped and asked, "Why is this boy laughing?"
The young man put away the folding fan and said, "Naturally, it's because of your nonsense!"
The old man shook his head and said, "What I said is true, why do you talk nonsense?"
The young man got up and jumped into the room, his attendants with him.
The young man came to the old man and his puppet, and sighed: "You puppet, the workmanship is rough, the formation is chaotic, I'm afraid that even the monk who has just cultivated the spiritual spring can't beat it." ”
The old man's face was embarrassed, and he hurriedly distinguished: "It's just that I am poor, and I have no money to buy better ores and metals." If only I had better ores and metal ......"
"That's enough!" the young man interrupted the old man and said in a loud voice, "To this day, as long as we and other puppeteers are not lazy, there can be no poor people at all. Seeing that you are old and frail, you must not learn and have no skills, otherwise how could you end up like this?"
The old man was so angry that he trembled all over, and he was anxious to distinguish something, but the young man didn't give him a chance, and then said: "There may be some of you who don't know me, I am the East Log Family, my name is Mu Tiande, and I have been a puppet family since the beginning of the Five Elements Country. It has never been broken, and it has been passed on to my generation, but I have never heard of any puppets that can move mountains and reclaim the sea!"
Speaking of this, Mu Tiande walked up to the old man, took out a small pocket from his arms, and said, "I saw that you have come all the way here, it is not easy, there is some gold here, enough for you to buy a good outfit, leave quickly." ”
As he spoke, Mu Tian had to throw the gold at the old man's feet.
The Wood Family?
The old man was helpless, this was not the first time he had been frustrated, his theory was not recognized, and he was ignored. However, he was not a recipient of charity, shook his head, pinched it in his hand, and controlled the puppet to follow him away.
The puppet's steps were heavy, but their steps were almost natural.
Mu Tiande smiled slightly, and glanced at the attendants beside him, and the group of followers understood and shot together to stop the puppet.
The old man frowned and said, "What do you mean by that?"
Mu Tiande smiled and said: "Just because I can't see you continue to cheat, so, you puppet, stay here, and you will destroy it!"
The old man couldn't help but sneer, and said: "The old man has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and he has seen a lot of people with different opinions, and there are also many people who destroy my puppet if they don't agree with each other." But a hypocritical villain like you is still rare. They say I'm a liar, but you want to rob my puppet? That's how your Mu family inherited it?"
Mu Tiande was not annoyed, and still smiled: "Didn't I already tell you what you said, I will destroy your deceitful puppet, you leave quickly!"
The old man naturally refused to leave, the law in his hand changed, the puppet immediately struggled to attack, it seemed to be bulky, but the puppet itself was extremely powerful, and Mu Tiande's two followers were defenseless and were immediately sent flying. The rest of the henchmen immediately used their aura, and suddenly, the bulky puppet was forcibly controlled.
The old man was anxious and wanted to rush forward, but he was set up by someone, and he couldn't get close at all, so he could only shout and scold: "Mu Tiande! Sure enough, people are as good as their name, and they have no heavenly virtue!
Obviously, the old man has excellent cultivation, and he doesn't even have a single dirty word.
Mu Tiande smiled and said, "You think too much, I'm just eliminating harm for my puppeteer peers." ”
The old man was set up, and the puppet was about to be carried away.
Li Xiaohei looked at it for a long time and confirmed that this puppet should be similar to the structure of the copper puppet, maybe this old man can help himself.
If you ask for help, you must first give them kindness.
What's more, the other party is still the Mu family who disgusts him!
Li Xiaohei jumped down and came to the middle of the two sides, with a shy face, and smiled: "I really like that puppet, this old man, how much are you going to sell it?"
