Chapter 118: Tears of the Merman
It turned out that this pair of male and female paper figures was the first pair of paper figures made by Red Chrysanthemum when she decided to start a paper shop.
A few years ago, Red Chrysanthemum's sister Wan Ting once reminded her that these two paper figures could no longer stay.
Because, when she came to the paper shop that day, she vaguely felt that the atmosphere here was abnormal, and there was an extremely cathode atmosphere.
Wan Ting followed this yin qi and found this man and a woman in a dark corner of the paper shop.
On that day, she carefully observed the two paper figures and found that the paper figures had been possessed by an unknown monster due to their storage time for too long.
Because, anything that is humanoid and left at home for too long, such as more than a hundred years, is easy to be possessed by some inexplicable monsters.
Originally, Wan Ting had advised Red Chrysanthemum to burn the two paper figures as soon as possible to prevent any accidents in the future.
But the two paper figures, a man and a woman, have special commemorative significance for the red chrysanthemum, so she has never been willing to burn the two paper figures.
Therefore, this change happened today, these two paper people don't know what kind of monster they are controlled, and they actually devour their masters, turning red chrysanthemums and rejuvenating incense into paper figures at the same time.
At this time, Mu Furong was hurriedly running in the direction of the Empress Temple.
She looked at the map in her hand as she ran, and ran in the direction of the Empress's Temple according to the instructions on the map.
Running and running, Mu Furong was pleased to see a wooden sign in front of her, with the words "Empress Temple" written on it.
The moonlight was particularly cold tonight, and a lone crow stood on the bare locust tree outside the Empress's Temple, making a strange cry in the dark night.
Mu Furong was so frightened by the crow's cry that she shuddered in her heart, and hurriedly entered the empress's temple.
It was the first time she came to the Empress Temple, so she didn't know that the magical "statue" enshrined at the door was Wan Ting.
So, after she entered the Empress's Temple, she just glanced at the strange idol, and then walked past the statue towards the Empress's Temple.
The temple is darker than the paper shop, and because it is relatively remote, there are not too many people who come to worship on weekdays, so only two not-so-bright candles are lit in the lobby.
"Senior Wan Ting?!Senior Wan Ting?, are you in there?"
Mu Furong asked tentatively as she walked towards the Empress's temple.
However, all that answered her was a cold wind.
"Oh no, how can this be good, how can we revive the red chrysanthemum and the rejuvenating incense?" Mu Furong muttered to herself in the Empress's Temple.
"What did you say happened to the red chrysanthemum?"
A woman's voice suddenly sounded in the empress temple, startling Mu Furong.
"Who's there? Is it Wan Ting?"
The idol enshrined in the main hall of the Empress Temple suddenly turned around and squeezed out a very strange smile towards Mu Furong.
The big red dahlia on her head set off her red lips even more weird and bewitching.
Mu Furong looked at her weird appearance and trembled, "You, are you a human or a ghost?"
Wan Ting grinned at her and smiled: "Wan Ting still wants to ask who you are?
Mu Furong sighed and said: "Huanting is here to find Huanting, it was the red chrysanthemum who told Huanting that the red chrysanthemum was turned into a paper figure, and she asked Huanting to come here to find Huanting for help." ”
Wan Ting was surprised: "What?!She was turned into a paper figure?! Wan Ting had already told her that she would burn those two paper figures as soon as possible, but she wouldn't listen to Wan Ting." Well, something is wrong now. ”
Mu Furong stared at the statue and said, "Could it be that you are Huanting?"
Wan Ting nodded and said, "Yes, you wait for Wan Ting, Wan Ting will go find some magic weapons, and then I will set off with you to save the red chrysanthemum." ”
Mu Furong said "um" and sat down on a wooden chair in the main hall.
After a while, Wan Ting walked out of a room in the Empress's Temple, carrying a unique lantern in her hand.
The lantern was translucent stone, emitting a faint blue light in the dimly lit temple of the Empress.
"Let's go. They're trapped in a paper shop, aren't they?" said Wan Ting, holding the lantern.
Mu Furong nodded and followed Wan Ting in the direction of the paper shop.
Mu Furong curiously stared at the lantern in Wan Ting's hand and asked, "What is this?
Wan Ting nodded and said, "Not bad." Precisely. ”
Mu Furong was surprised: "What kind of magic weapon is this? It's the first time that Wan Ting has seen such a strange magic weapon." ”
Wan Ting tugged at the corners of her mouth and said: "This magic weapon is called the Tears of the Shark, and the fuel in it is made of Shark oil, which can burn for tens of thousands of years. ”
Mu Furong was surprised: "But isn't this merman's tear a lantern?
Wan Ting said mysteriously: "When you get to the paper shop, Wan Ting will use this merman's tears, and you will understand." ”
Then, Wan Ting used immortal magic to ignite the merman's tears, and the fire in the merman's tears grew bigger and bigger, even lighting up the entire night sky.
After that, Wan Ting jumped on top of the Tears of the Shark and floated on the fire of the Tears of the Sharks.
Mu Furong stared at Wan Ting who was flying up in surprise and said, "What's the situation?"
Wan Ting smiled at her: "Hurry up and jump up and hold Wan Ting's hand, you can quickly reach the outside of the paper shop with this merman's tears." ”
Mu Furong didn't ask any more questions, just jumped up cooperatively.
Then, the merman's tears were like a hot air balloon, driving the slender bodies of Wan Ting and Mu Furong into the air.
After that, Mu Furong felt that her eyes were dark, and her body actually floated away towards the dark front with the merman's tears.
It didn't take long for the two of them to float to an open space not far from the paper shop.
Wan Ting manipulated the merman's tears to stop, and the two slowly floated towards the ground.
At this time, Wan Ting shook out a light shirt from her arms, and the shirt was glowing with a faint pale green light.
Immediately afterwards, she saw Wan Ting put the shirt on her body, and then she said something in her mouth, and her figure flashed and disappeared outside the door.
In fact, this dress is called "Diluo Jin", and wearing this dress can freely shuttle through all walks of life and hide invisible, even if it is an immortal with high mana, he cannot see the clothed person hiding in it.
Mu Furong looked ahead blankly and said softly, "Hey, Huanting, where are you going?"
At this moment, she suddenly felt her mouth covered by a hand.
Just as she was about to scream, a familiar voice sounded in her ears: "Shhhh Don't be silent. It's Grace. ”
"Wan Ting, when did you come here?" Mu Furong whispered in a low voice.
Wan Ting pulled her into the "Di Luo Jin", and at this time, Mu Furong saw Wan Ting's face in the "Di Luo Jin".
At this moment, the two of them were hiding together in the invisibility cloak that emitted a pale green shimmer just now, and their white faces looked particularly infiltrating in this pale green shimmer.
"This, what's going on?" asked Mu Hibiscus, staring at the Soul Returning Incense in disbelief.
"I'll explain to you later, let's hide here with Huanting for the time being. With that, she leaned in the direction of Hibiscus to prevent the two of them from being seen.
Then, the two slowly walked towards the paper shop.
When she arrived at the door of the paper shop, in order to prevent being discovered, Wan Ting planned to jump in from the outer wall with Mu Hibiscus.
Just as the two of them jumped into the air, they were suddenly bounced back by a mysterious and strange force.
"Oops, they seem to have put up an enchantment here. Wan Ting whispered to Mu Furong.
Mu Furong nodded and said, "It seems that it is, so what should I do? Will you unravel the enchantment arranged by this paper man?"
Wan Ting sighed and said, "Wan Ting can only try." ”
Just as Wan Ting was about to cast a spell to break this barrier, the pale-faced male paper man suddenly appeared from the paper shop.
He leapt and floated in mid-air.
Then, he kept muttering strange incantations and flicked his green sleeves forward.
Suddenly, two rows of strange little paper figures ran out of his cuffs.
The paper figures babbled and screamed as they rushed towards Grace and Mu Furong.
It turned out that this paper man had been with Red Chrysanthemum for many years, and he had secretly learned a lot of spells from her, and even learned the stunt of using the paper figure method.
Wan Ting subconsciously took out a handful of yellow talismans from her pocket and threw them at these paper figures.
When they saw these yellow symbols, they seemed to be a little frightened, and they "squeaked" and exchanged ears, as if they were discussing what these yellow symbols were in a language that Huanting could not understand.
Then, a paper figure led by him took the lead and walked towards a yellow talisman.
It stepped on the yellow charm with its foot, and found that it had no effect, so it said a few words to the paper figure behind it.
I saw them rushing up, stepping on Wan Ting's yellow charm and rushing towards the two of them.
It seems that these yellow talismans do not work on them, after all, they are not ghosts or demons.
Just as Huanting wondered what had changed with these paper figures, some of them were already lying on Huanting's body, and they opened their mouths to bite her arms and legs, and large and small wounds were suddenly bitten out on her body.
Wan Ting struggled to twist her whole body, trying to shake them off, but she didn't expect that these paper figures were not as fragile as they looked, and they were like terrible piranhas.
If you don't take some measures, it is estimated that Wanting will have to become a skeleton in the future.
Yellow Fu doesn't seem to work on them, so what should be used against them?
Suddenly, Wan Ting had a plan. Since they are paper figures, they must be afraid of fire.
So, Wan Ting took out the fire fold on her body. After a quick hit, he burned at one of the paper figures.
Suddenly, the paper figure was burned to ashes in an instant.
Wan Ting was overjoyed and finally found a way to deal with them.
Wan Ting lit a paper figure with a lighter, and several paper figures next to it were burned one after another, and they also let out a scream of "babbling".
