15. Paper man
raised his eyes and looked around, but when he saw that group of people listening to such a sad scene, there was no expression on their faces, as if they were like iron and stone.
And the people singing on the stage seemed to be fascinated by the acting, and they actually set a fire and burned it from the soles of their feet.
Li Guxing shouted: "Save people, save people!" ”
No matter how he shouted, many spectators did not mean to move, and it seemed that it had long been commonplace.
Li Guxing thought about it carefully, and couldn't help but shiver, he always felt that someone was blowing cool air on the back of his neck, and looked back, but saw that the person was standing behind him with a smile, although he was smiling, but his face was much colder, and he didn't feel much better than the ice cellar of Jiuhantian.
Li Guxing pointed to the stands and said hurriedly: "This, this is all burning, how can you sit still?" ”
The man smiled all over his face and bowed his hand to Li Guxing: "Please excuse me, these are all rehearsed in advance, and they don't have much impact." ”
Li Guxing's heart was a little relieved.
The man said: "The villain has a small matter that needs to trouble you, and I ask the guest not to excuse himself." ”
Li Guxing calmed down, glanced at the table, looked at the food on the table, and swallowed his saliva, "You say, I'll do my best to help if I can." ”
The man nodded, took Li Guxing's arm and walked away, saying as he walked: "My master is on his birthday, and there is a pair of words that are still missing. There have been no guests here for many years, and today's guests are coming, and it is better to hit the day than to hit the day, so I want to ask the guests to point a sum for the host, and talk about the heart. ”
This is not a difficult thing, Li Guxing is taken care of, if he doesn't even do this little thing, it will be too unreasonable, and he immediately nodded and said: "Okay, but listen to the master's orders." ”
The man pulled Li Gu to walk in the corridor, the corridor winding path was quiet and the atmosphere was strange, and a long lamp was placed every few steps, shining green, just like the lantern in the corridor of the tomb when he first entered.
Li Guxing said: "The master is so generous, he actually uses such a rare thing. ”
The man said: "It's not that my master has a lot of money, but it's just that he uses other people's things to facilitate himself." ”
"So, these lamps were taken from the tomb?"
The man nodded, "Exactly, there is no daylight here." We can't live here without a light. Ordinary lights are not long consumed, and only the lights made of the grease of the South China Sea mermaids can be kept bright. ”
While talking, Li Guxing thought that he was pulled to a room in front of him, he has always had a good memory, and he could walk back with his eyes closed, but he didn't know how many turns he had turned during the conversation, and he glanced back, but he felt that this corridor was long and winding, and he couldn't find the circuit for a while, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "How big is this corridor?" ”
The man ignored him, knocked lightly on the door, and whispered, "Master, the guest has arrived." ”
A young woman's voice came from inside the house, "Now that you have arrived, let me in." ”
The man gently pushed the door open and made a gesture of please, "Please wait." ”
Li Guxing entered the house by himself, a rich fragrance came to his face, it smelled very good, the decoration of the house was elegant and solemn and not playful and dexterous, it seemed that it should be a young woman's boudoir.
Li Guxing's face turned red, and he coughed lightly twice, "Hello Miss, I have no intention of breaking in, I am offended, please forgive me." ”
The voice said coldly: "Guests don't have to be polite, just sit down at will." ”
Li Guxing looked at it, there was only one stool in the room, just in front of the dresser, there was a bronze mirror on the table, and some women's eyebrows and faces were neatly placed around it.
He sat up timidly, always feeling itchy and uncomfortable.
The woman stopped talking after she said a word, and Li Guxing was inconvenient to say more, and when she was bored, she looked at herself in the bronze mirror.
"I don't know how long I've been in this tomb, but I didn't expect it to become so haggard, there is no blood on my face, and my stomach is still hungry. When I got the news, I came to Wanyou Inn to know the cause of my father's death, but I didn't find anything, but I fell into it. I can't help but sigh at the impermanence of the world.
He felt sorry for himself in front of the bronze mirror, and his mood was low, and suddenly he saw a vague figure in the bronze mirror.
He looked closely, but saw that the figure was becoming clearer and clearer, and finally changed to the appearance of a skeleton, and the two holes in the eye sockets of the skull were looking at him.
The skeleton moved suddenly, its chin moved slightly as if it was laughing, and after the smile, the head suddenly tilted and fell, startling Li Guxing.
He turned his head suddenly, but saw the man standing behind him with a tray and a smile.
"When did you come??" Li Guxing asked in surprise, his voice had changed.
The man said, "I've been here for a while, and I didn't make a noise when I saw the guests looking at me. ”
He turned his head to look at the bronze mirror again, and the bronze mirror reflected a complete person, where there was still the appearance of a half-point skeleton. Rubbing his eyes with both hands, he couldn't help shaking his head, "Maybe I was hungry and fainted, so I saw something terrifying." ”
The man said with a smile: "In this big tomb, the yin qi is too heavy, the ordinary body is weak, and it is normal to see some things, there is pen and ink here, and I hope that the guests will complete the words next to the welcome pine." ”
"Welcome Pine??" Li Guxing was stunned for a moment, he only saw the woman's thing when he entered the door, and he didn't see any welcome pine at all, besides, this is a woman's boudoir, and the delicate and small style does not match the old man's things like the welcome pine at all, but I don't know what this woman thinks.
The man pointed to a pot of plants next to him and smiled, "That's it." ”
Li Guxing rubbed his eyes again, surprised in his heart, and said in his heart: "When will there be such a pot of plants here?!" ”
He shook his head again and again, and said that when he entered the door, he was all attracted by the dresser and the bronze mirror, and had no idea of anything else, so he stood up, took the brush, lit some ink, and put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it.
This is his habit for many years, Li Guxing is a natural martial arts material, and for Wenmo Li Guxing is not good, after learning for many years, it is only the level of literacy and hyphenation, at most two more poems can no longer learn anything.
When I was bored, I sniffed the ink on the tip of the pen, and over time I practiced a kind of kung fu.
Hearing this, Li Guxing was a little dazed and asked, "Where did you get this ink?" I've never seen it. ”
The man said: "This is handed down by the ancestors, it has a history of more than 100 years, and it is normal for guests not to know it." ”
Li Guxing didn't think too much, and walked to the welcoming pine, but there was a painting behind the potted plant, which painted Guanyin charming and enchanting, which was less solemn and more soft than ordinary Guanyin. At the feet of Guanyin, a poem was inscribed, just because the poem was too small, and the light was too dim for people to see clearly.
He looked at it a few times, but he still couldn't see it clearly, and said helplessly: "I'm a rough person, I don't know how to write and ink, and I can't see what the words on it are, what words do you ask me to make?" Where is the word? ”
The man seemed to be very impatient, and said with a straight face: "It's the third word in the second line, the word is completely finished, and there is one less point written on that word, just make up that point." ”
"Just make up for that??"
The man said, "Yes, that's all there is to it!" If you can't see clearly, get closer!! ”
Li Guxing nodded, and suddenly his heart was shocked, and a bad premonition suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart, and he suddenly thought of what Zhao Wuqian had said, "I'll pinch my fingers, you have a bloody disaster......"
He turned around and said: "Can you bring a lamp over, it will be better to make up for the words if it is brighter, if it is crooked, wouldn't it be a bad picture of Guanyin." ”
The man's face grew colder and colder, "Don't hold the lamp!" Then he said slowly: "The palm lamp is not only a blasphemy against the Guanyin on the portrait, if you accidentally light the portrait, it will not be good, and the villain can not afford to blame the master." If the guest can't see clearly, he will take a closer look, and when he gets closer, he will see clearly. ”
“......”
Li Guxing was speechless for a while, looking at the man's expectant eyes, he only felt that there was a cat in it, a very big cat greasy, why did he want to let himself get close to that painting? There must be something weird in it!
Seeing that he didn't move, the man stepped forward and said sharply, "Go!" Hurry up and make up for that word! ”
Li Guxing pretended to be obedient, raised his pen, moved his steps forward slightly, and observed the person secretly, but saw that the person's face was immediately happy, and the slight words were full of temptation, "Closer, closer......"
"Whoever is close is a fool!" Li Guxing secretly said in his heart, guarded, and implemented the internal force on the tip of the pen, and a sword qi revealed a "snort" sound from the tip of the pen, if there was any abnormal movement of that person, it would make many holes in his head.
At this moment, a scream came from outside the door, interrupting him, the voice was very familiar, Li Guxing was overjoyed, and shouted: "Hai Yingchun, is it you??" ”
That person was Hai Yingchun, he heard someone's voice, ran all the way, pushed the door and entered, "Li Guxing!" Sure enough, it's you!! I'm scared to death!! It's all human...... It's all people......"
He was so frightened that he couldn't understand what he was talking about.
When the man saw Hai Yingchun, his facial features and eyebrows were twisted together, his face was pale, his eyes were shining, and he couldn't wait to peel Hai Yingchun's skin and bones, and after snorting coldly, he brushed his sleeves away!
Li Guxing hid the brush in his cuffs, and when he saw the man go out, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he stared at Hai Yingchun again and said: "There are strange things everywhere here, let's settle our affairs in a while, and we must not fight among ourselves now, you know?" ”
Hai Yingchun panicked, trembling all over, talking nonsense in his mouth, Li Guxing looked at him like this, afraid that he would be scared to death, round his arms, and gave him a mouthful.
"Got it?!"
This slap reminded Hai Yingchun of when he first entered the palace, and he instantly sobered up.
There is often a saying in the rivers and lakes that pain is relieved by pain, and compared to the fear of being a eunuch, the fear of all kinds of strange things in the tomb is nothing.
After a while, Hai Yingchun said: "Okay, okay, Li Guxing, do you know, outside the door...... There are people outside the door......"
"What's the matter? Okay, okay, don't say it if you can't say it, follow me, I'll save your life for the time being. ”
"Y-Are you okay?"
Li Guxing pretended to fight again, and was so frightened that Hai Yingchun knelt down, "If I can't do it, we'll die, it's better to have someone die with you than to die by yourself." ”
Hai Yingchun kowtowed a few times, "Okay, okay, all listen to you, can't we all listen to you?" ”
Li Guxing didn't talk nonsense with him anymore, he was now more curious about what was wrong with the painting, and kicked the welcome pine down in front of the Guanyin statue, but when he heard the "click" twice, two big knives flew out from the ground and the air to loosen the welcome into four!!
"It's so vicious!!" Li Guxing said angrily, and walked straight to pull the curtain, wanting to see what kind of heart the master had here!
As the curtain opened, the two of them were stunned at the same time, where was there any owner, and some were just a paper figure, a paper figure dressed in hardcover and lifelike.
"W-What is this??"
Hai Yingchun said: "What else can it be, burn it for the dead." ”
"Dead man??" This sentence woke up Li Guxing, he turned around, and came to the place where he was singing, and saw that the hall was full of paper figures wearing various colors, and there was still a little jubilation. On the stage, several paper figures held their heads in their hands, and their bodies were burned to ashes.
