Lu Jing is really not skilled in tracking this kind of work, fortunately, the old gentleman has not been trained in anti-tracking, although he occasionally looks back along the way, but Lu Jing can basically detect it in advance and hide first.

After "dragging on" back and forth for more than 20 minutes, the old man finally stopped in front of a small courtyard or workshop in the north of the city, and looked left and right when he went up and knocked on the door.

Lu Jing sat on the edge of the baked cake stall, with his back to there, holding a cake in his hand.

Oh, this old man is still too young!

"Hey, what kind of bread didn't you give money for?"

“...... Excuse me, how much?"

Adjusting his position while checking out, Lu Jing looked at the figure that appeared in the open door over there, his eyes suddenly froze, and then his expression became a little strange.

How is this guy?

Holding the baked cake, he put down the umbrella in his hand, and walked around to the other side of the courtyard from a few cars parked on the side of the street, during which Lu Jing noticed that the old man did not enter the door, so he stood outside and talked to her, probably thinking about leaving after speaking.

"Xiao Ju, I can't be mistaken, that's the soul puppet, I really don't know what's wrong, the production method of that kind of poisonous stuff seems to have been circulated, a group of people came not long ago, but I didn't expect it to come again this time...... Listen to me, you hurry up and find a place to avoid the limelight, I won't stay here for long, you be careful!"

Xu was worried that he would be noticed after staying for a long time, so the old man pressed the hat and left from the other side.

Boom~

Closing the door, Fu Ju leaned his back against the door panel, frowning and sighing silently.

"These bastards are obviously only a little bit close......"

With a low whisper, he ran through the open-air courtyard in the rain, pushed the door and walked into his workshop, his eyes resting on the utensils placed on the workbench in the middle, and then walking to the wide wooden box next to him.

Jingle bell~

A crisp bell rang.

Fu Ju's movements suddenly stopped, and he turned around sharply to look in the direction of the gate, he came so fast......

Oops, Old Man Wu is being followed!

Realizing the danger, Fu Ju immediately picked up a chisel placed on the workbench and stood behind the door, holding his breath and waiting for someone outside to break in.

However, what she didn't expect was that the footsteps that were constantly approaching suddenly stopped outside the door, and a familiar voice came.

"Painter, I'm here to ask for that 1 gold leaf, even if you can't come out yet, there's no need to hide behind the door and plan to kill people, right...... Besides, I'm not going to ask you to pay it back right now, but I just have a few questions I want to ask you about dolls. ”

Lu Jing was naturally aware of the movement in the house, and he didn't plan to sell it, and deliberately mentioned what happened at sea a few days ago.

After speaking, he didn't rush in, but took a step back, and pressed back the glass that had just poked his head out of the backpack and wanted to jump down, waiting for the person inside to react.

Crunch~

The door opened.

Fu Ju stood silently in front of Lu Jing, and the first time the latter revealed his identity, she thought of where the soul puppet that Old Man Wu said before came from.

"Sure enough, it's you!"

Looking at the girl in front of her who was wearing brown overalls and facing the sky, compared to the two faces she showed when she met on the sea flower boat, she looked much calmer now, and after a short silence, Lu Jing squinted her eyes and smiled,

"1 gold leaf for a few questions, this price should be sincere enough, right?"

"The Soul Puppet is in your hands?"

"Of course, it was the loot I found from the suitcase of the Nightmare Pirates, it must be a very valuable thing, and you know, for people like us who have just been out to sea, there is a place where money is needed, so I want to find out its value first, and then find a place to sell it. ”

Lu Jing took out the soul puppet in his backpack and asked.

He didn't ask Fu Ju why he was still working as a color performer on the sea flower boat a few days ago, and a few days later he appeared on Qihuang Island, which was not on the route of the sea flower boat at all.

didn't delve into why she, a descendant of the Fu family, would steal money on the ship as a color dramatist, and the members of the Nightmare Pirates who coincidentally held this parasitic puppet were also on that ship......

Intuition told Lu Jing that there was probably a big trouble here, and the purpose of his coming to Qihuang Island was just to find out what this soul puppet was.

"You can't sell it!"

Hearing Lu Jing's thoughts, Fu Ju almost subconsciously denied it.

"It's my thing, you won't let me sell it, you have to tell the reason, right?"

Lu Jing still replied unhurriedly.

"You...... Wait for me in the house, I'll go get something. ”

As if sensing Lu Jing's intentions, Fu Ju pursed his lips, and finally moved out of the way.

"Girl, please, don't be polite to me. ”

Lu Jing was not worried that Fu Ju would take this opportunity to leave, and the monk would not be able to run away from the temple.

Placing the umbrella that was still dripping with water outside the door, as soon as he entered the door, Lu Jing's attention was immediately attracted by the obviously unfinished work on the workbench, among a large number of mechanical or wooden parts, a shape resembles a paraglider, but there are some special structures in the riveted joints of various parts.

Leaning forward two steps and seeing a drawing on the desktop that had not had time to put away, I thought it was the production drawing of this "paraglider", but after a cursory glance, I found that the drawing on the drawing was more like a plan map......

A mountain, a three-story building, a connecting arc in between, a large number of calculations, and some specific annotations.

Before Lu Jing could see the reason from here, the drawing was taken away by one hand, and then even the "paraglider" on the workbench was covered by a black cloth.

"In the end, it is a descendant of the Fu family, this hands-on ability is really extraordinary. ”

This is Lu Jing's heart, not to mention anything else, just those formulas, he can't understand them at all.

"Some small things made by home, not enough to worry about...... Anyway, you take a look at this first. ”

Placing an incense burner on the table, there was still a red incense stick in it, seeing Lu Jing's face full of confusion, Fu Ju continued,

"Place the soul golem on top of the incense stick, and you'll understand what it's for. ”

"Huh?"

Lu Jing didn't quite understand what Fu Ju meant, but he still put the soul puppet on it as she said.

I saw that the gray-white smoke emitted when the incense stick burned around the soul puppet, and there was no change at first, just as Lu Jing was about to ask a question, he saw that the face of the puppet painted with a scarlet charm changed for a while, and the next second it was actually a distorted wailing face!

Suddenly, Lu Jing only felt a tingling on his scalp!
