Chapter 480: Calculating
It turned out that the man who lived here was surnamed Du, and he settled in Hexiang Town with his wife and young son, and lived there for ten years. He looks ordinary, but his wife is as delicate as a flower, and this strong contrast has sparked discussion and curiosity in Hexiang Town for more than half a year.
But this family lives in a simple place and rarely interacts with the villagers. The male host, Du Heng, said little, and heard that there was a part in the big chamber of commerce, so that he didn't have to travel outside for a long time; his wife, Mrs. Zhao, was gentle and introverted, and she only smiled when she saw people, and rarely paid attention to other people's conversations.
However, their child Du Mingyun is lively and active, and often mingles with his peers.
When Master Park heard this, he asked, "How old is this child?"
"Teens. ”
Lord Park was dissatisfied: "Be precise. ”
"Ah, before Du Heng lived in Hexiang Town, the child was already born, and we don't know his specific birthday. Li Zheng said, "According to his own words, he is thirteen years old." ”
"Thirteen?" Master Park mused, "The age is right, but this is from a ...... background" This little guy surnamed Du has lived in Hexiang Town for ten years, so it is unlikely that they will be targeted.
No, there's a teenager!
A teenager who stays at an inn with a beautiful woman.
Could it be that the little prince who has been missing for two years?
Remembering what he had seen in the house, Mr. Park came to the same conclusion as Tsubame Saburo: "They didn't leave in a hurry. ”
The family had already packed their bags and was ready to leave, so it wasn't because they were uneven and pulled out their knives to help.
That is, they knew it in the first place?
Now that five of the living people have disappeared, and five officers and soldiers have also died, where did the people Wei Wang was looking for flee to?
At this moment, a stranger came out of the crowd and saluted him: "Lord Park." ”
"East ...... Brought?" almost uttered the word "something".
"Brought. ”
Master Park finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked back to the Du family's house: "Come with me." ”
According to his wishes, the guards had already collected four or five things, and hurriedly handed them over.
Most of them were clothes, stoves, and small pieces of furniture, and the stranger examined them one by one, and then shook his head: "No, what you want to find out must have been the beloved things of the master's family, so that there are bonds, bonds, and traces between people and things." ”
He pointed to the iron pot in front of him: "This pot is smoky and burning, and all traces are gone, no!"
He looked at the clothes on the table again, and it was exactly one for each of the three members of the family: "What are you looking for clothes to do, and you don't want the dog to smell and track them! Clothes can be replaced and replaced, and they will be abandoned by the owner at any time, what kind of 'beloved thing'?"
Master Park also said in a deep voice: "Look for it again! ”
The guards only divided their heads and looked for them, but they all secretly slandered themselves: If it was really the beloved thing of the master, I am afraid that it would have been taken away with it, and where would it be lost in the house? Besides, there are thousands of good things among thousands of people, and it is unknown which inconspicuous object is the master's beloved thing. There is no label on it, so how can people find it!
So this time the search took quite a long time, and finally a small soldier pulled out a cloth tiger from under the bed in the house.
I don't know how many years this colorful cloth tiger has been lying in the dust left in the corner, but the stitches are fine, showing that the embroidery is good.
When Lord Park saw it, his eyes lit up: "Maybe this thing makes it." ”
Judging from the furnishings in the house, the so-called Du family is only a solid family, and it is impossible for Miss Liao's children to be like the children and grandchildren of the Liao family, playing with kitkat objects.
His toys are limited, so this cloth tiger is still worth a try.
At that moment, Master Park found a small room, ordered people to close the doors and windows, and then lit oil lamps, and then pasted several gold talismans on the cloth tiger.
Depending on its utility, ordinary rune paper is drawn from different materials, ranging from ink to dog blood to added cinnabar. But these photos pasted on the cloth tiger are made of gold clay!
It is made from real pure gold water.
The strip of paper, which is less than two pieces of paper, looks like it is full of the colors of local tyrants under the oil lamp.
It wasn't until the smoke from the oil smoke was straight into a line that the stranger took out a puppet.
This doll is made of locust wood, only the size of a palm, but the craftsmanship is delicate, not only has all four limbs, but also has a nose and eyes, and even a pair of attractive ears.
He put the puppet close to the cloth tiger and put it away, and then the real fire was sacrificed.
With a "whew", the cloth tiger caught fire, and even the golden clay rune paper on it turned into ashes in an instant.
Instead of dispersing in the air, the smoke drifted towards the puppet as if guided.
Immediately afterward, the surrounding guards saw a strange scene:
The puppet moved.
It had been completely still, but suddenly it looked up and moved closer in the direction where the soot was drifting. And then, I blinked!
Only then did others discover that the wood carving attainments were really good, not only carving the eyes in black and white, but even turning left and right.
This idol had just woken up, and he was confused for a few breaths, and suddenly he used his limbs together and quickly crawled in the direction of the ashes of the cloth tiger!
Although the facial features of the wood carving do not show its expression, others can easily feel from its demeanor, and it seems to be very intoxicated.
Immediately afterward, an angry voice sounded in the hearts of everyone in this room:
"Little thief, little thief stole my gold!"
It's done. Yi Shi was overjoyed, and said to the puppet: "It was the thief who stole your treasure! ”
"Be sure to get it back!" the puppet finished and began to look around.
Originally, this room was gloomy and weird, but when it opened its mouth, others only felt funny, and the terrible atmosphere was swept away. The soldiers guarding here looked at it curiously, but naturally no one explained it to them.
Rather than picking people up like a fly without a head, Lord Park would rather wait a while longer and be targeted in this way.
The talking puppet is not a puppet, it is just possessed.
The locust wood is extremely yin, and this doll is made of three-hundred-year-old locust wood, which can raise lonely souls. At this moment, what is resting in it is a very rare kind of wandering spirit, called "Calculation".
It has a more colloquial name:
Cheapskate.
This thing was stingy in life, and after death, it must hold on to its obsession in order to stay in the world for a long time. It regards the treasures of the world as its own, and the strangers take advantage of this characteristic to drive it to serve themselves.
Master Park burned the gold talisman with the cloth tiger to "Ji Jiao", so it decided that the owner of the cloth tiger had stolen his gold, and he would grit his teeth and go to track it down. Theoretically, as long as Master Park follows the guidance of "calculation", he can find the owner of the cloth tiger.
Master Park immediately stood up: "Let's go!"
He's already wasted too much time here.
