"What the hell was that wooden villain just now?" Wei Yiyi was still a little shocked.

Before Gui Yuan could answer, a loud protest had already arisen outside, "Wood is not a ghost!" It sounded like the voice of the little wooden man.

Then a man's voice seemed to reprimand it lightly, and then said aloud: "Jingshan disciple Zhu Rihe, on the order of Mingyue Zhenren, will send some daily things for my junior sister." In a hurry, I didn't tell each other in advance, which disturbed the peace of the junior sisters. ”

Mingyue is really upright, and even his name seems to have the effect of clearing the heart and concentrating on the town house to drive away ghosts.

The two girls immediately relaxed a lot, and Wei Yiyi was even more excited, and said repeatedly: "Don't dare to be, senior brother, please come in quickly." ”

As soon as the words fell, a man with a sparse expression had already appeared in the small courtyard, and at his feet stood the little wooden man who called himself Wood. The man was dressed in a light green robe, and the two women knew that it was the color of clothing that Jingshan's disciples often wore, but they didn't see how he entered the courtyard at all.

The wooden villain saw that the two sides saluted each other, but no one paid attention to it, and hurriedly circled around at the man's feet, and said loudly: "I am wood, I am wood!"

Zhu Rihe smiled apologetically at the second daughter and explained: "This is a puppet puppet made by my own hands, because it is a wooden braincase, so it is simply called wood." It's lively, and it's really noisy. ”

Wei Yiyi was still scared to death just now, but now he felt very rare, raised the wooden villain in his hand again, and said with a smile: "Good wood, we all recognize you." ”

She touched the villain with her hands and feet, and asked curiously, "Is there anyone in this world who can make puppet puppet arts?" ”

At the mention of Yanshu, she suddenly remembered a key point in the legend, and couldn't help but let out an "ah", her hand trembled again, and she almost threw the wood down again.

was shaken twice in a row, no matter how good the wood is, he couldn't stand it anymore, he jumped directly from Wei Yiyi's palm to Zhu Rihe, and then grabbed the placket of his clothes all the way to his shoulder and sat down, and made a look that he couldn't tell whether he was disgusted or aggrieved.

Zhu Rihe was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Senior Sister Wei probably misunderstood something. Although the wood is a puppet figure, it is quite different from the legendary Yanshu. ”

Guiyuan, who was itching and unbearable, couldn't wait for this, and immediately hit the snake with the stick, and arched his hand: "Senior sisters, you are stupid, and please ask Senior Brother Zhu for detailed guidance." ”

It turns out that the legendary Yanshu is very magical, and the puppets made are almost indistinguishable from real people. The most brilliant Yanshu is called Yanshi, and the last Yanshi is also the pinnacle of Yanshu, he once dressed up his proud work as a servant, and together he saw King Mu Xianjun.

This King Mu is a female monk who has been enlightened for many years, and her cultivation is profound, but she also did not distinguish that the servants who followed Yanshi were not real people. This puppet even performed a song and dance on the spot, and it is said that the song deceived the sound of the stone, and the dance had the state of an immortal, and the audience applauded. King Mu was very fond of him, and summoned him to the throne to reward him heavily. Who knew that this puppet would die by himself, and he would have the audacity to speak and tease King Mu.

Everyone in the world knows that although King Mu is beautiful, he is also fierce and unparalleled. She has made great achievements in her life, is unruly, loves to drink famous wine, tames fierce horses, and has an inexplicable relationship with the Queen Mother of the Immortal Monarch.

Grape wine luminous glass, want to drink pipa immediately urge. It is the story of King Mu on the way to meet the Queen Mother of the West, she drove eight horses, the sound of hooves moved the ground, and drank wine all the way. It is where the Kyushu mainland is located today, and there are still many legends and relics that have been passed down to this day.

After listening to Zhu Rihe's explanation, Gui Yuan immediately admired King Mu, a drunken female driver, and asked, "Did King Mu kill Yanshi on the spot?"

Zhu Rihe shook his head and said, "That's not it." ”

"King Mu was furious, and he really wanted to arrest the servants and the Yanshi together and ask them for guilt. The Yanshi hurriedly pleaded guilty, and only then did he say that this was just a puppet with Yanshu refining, without wisdom and ignorance, and he did not intend to offend the Immortal Monarch. ”

Sure enough, after the Yanshi dismantled the puppet on the spot, everyone saw that although the servant's belly was full of internal organs, it was not made of flesh and blood, but leather, wood, spirit stones, and so on. There was no blood flowing out of the disembowelment, and the puppet did not feel anything unusual at all. ”

"It is said that King Mu was still suspicious, and tried to puncture its heart first, so that the puppet could not speak, punctured the liver, and could not see, and punctured the kidney, and the puppet could not move. Only then did she rejoice in her anger, and instead praised the master's mastery, and exchanged a lot of money for this puppet from the Yanshi and brought it back to the palace for collection. ”

Gui Yuan sighed, always feeling that there was something strange about this story, but he couldn't say it clearly for a while.

Sure enough, Wei Yiyi said: "There is no follow-up in the general classics, but in fact, this story is not over at all. She was a little embarrassed for no reason at this time, and glanced at Zhu Rihe boldly, "Senior Brother Zhu must also be clear, so you should continue to talk down." ”

Zhu Rihe smiled and praised his junior sister for her erudition, and then said, "That's true." In fact, the Yanshi's Yanshu can pinn a wisp of Yuan Shen on his own puppet, as if he was incarnated outside the body. At this time, you can not only manipulate the puppet, but also share the five senses of the puppet. And if you don't trust the original spirit, the puppet can only follow the instructions and do some simple activities such as following, sitting, or holding slippers. ”

"That day, Yanshi didn't know what kind of wind he was smoking, and he made a bet with others that he could tease King Mu without angering her, and he could get out of the way. He just made up his mind to use the puppet as his doppelganger, so every move of the servant can be equated with his own doing. ”

Gui Yuan sighed and asked, "This person is really hateful, but King Mu broke this puppet at that time, is it because she has already discovered the clues?"

Zhu Rihe nodded, "Senior Sister Gui is right, Yanshi should have taken the opportunity to cut off his connection with the puppet when he dismantled it, but these actions did not escape King Mu's spiritual sense after all. As far as I guess, she just doesn't want to damage her reputation by making a public announcement, and then stabbing the puppet's heart, liver and kidney is also a small punishment in front of her. Otherwise, everyone is a monk, how could King Mu destroy someone's magic puppet for no reason, and finally forcibly take it away and refuse to return it to the Yanshi. ”

"It's a pity that this last generation of Yanshi Yanshu is strong, but people are too frivolous. I didn't know how to restrain myself once I escaped death, and I actually used this thing to show off to my friends in private, saying that he had won the bet, and he was the only one who had played with King Mu in the world but retreated. ”

"Before King Mu could do anything, the Queen Mother of the West was already furious, and soon there was no news of Yanshi in the immortal road, and Yanshu has declined since then and even completely lost, so that future generations can only think about it. There was a lot of sighing and emotion in Zhu Rihe's words.

After listening to the story, the eyes of the two girls fell on the little puppet wood together.

Mu sat on Zhu Rihe's shoulders upright, listening to the story very energetically, and suddenly was stared at like this, and after being startled, he turned over, hugged his master's neck and hid behind his collar. Its appearance is really funny and cute, which makes people laugh, but thinking that these cute actions may have been manipulated by Zhu Rihe, Wei Yiyi and Gui Yuan both felt a little sick to their stomachs, and the soft-hearted bird eggs just now seemed to be unable to be saved, and they began to rebel in their stomachs.

Zhu Rihe hurriedly took a step back and waved his hand: "Senior sisters, don't misunderstand. Yanshu has long been lost, and although Mu is also a puppet, the principle is not the same. ”

Seeing that the two women were still skeptical, he smiled bitterly and said: "Entrusting the Yuan Shen must be above the Yuan Shen period to do it, I am a Jindan disciple, how can I have such skills." ”

Only high-level monks can perceive the realm of low-level monks, but low-level monks cannot spy on the cultivation of high-level monks. Zhu Rihe took out his immortal jade pendant, and verified it with Wei Yiyi and Guiyuan, and sure enough, it was Zhu Rihe, a disciple of Jingshan Jindan.

Wei Yiyi apologized again and again, the courtyard was not a place for hospitality, and asked Zhu Rihe to come into the house and sit down to talk. She became more and more interested in wood, but each person would never allow others to watch each other's practice, let alone such a miraculous creation technique.

Fortunately, Zhu Rihe didn't mind, and Xiao Mu didn't hold much grudges, and when the owner whispered a few words, he came over one after another to show that he had reconciled with Wei Yiyi. Then suddenly, a mouth spit out a package, and Zhu Rihe took it firmly in his hand.

This puppet puppet is only three or four inches tall, even if it is in that package, it doesn't take up much space, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it can hold such a big thing in your belly, obviously like the osmanthus storage bracelet, it is a space spirit weapon.

This time, Zhu Rihe came to hand over this package for Mingyue Zhenren.

He explained: "The cultivation of the real person has reached a critical time, and he is breaking through the retreat, and I am afraid that I will not be able to go to the bottom of the mountain to visit the two junior sisters in the next few days. He was worried that you were new to the palace and would not be able to adapt to the life of Yunshan Immortal Academy, so he specially asked me to bring you some daily applications and auxiliary cultivation things for emergencies. ”

Mingyue Zhenren's strong support came at the right time, and two bottles of Bigu Dan solved the urgent needs of Wei Yiyi and Guiyuan. Zhu Rihe also complained about the food in the upper courtyard of Yunshan.

"It wasn't like that before, and I don't know what year it suddenly arose. At first, the nuns were embarrassed to go out to meet people when they ate a meat dish, but then they simply fooled around in the kitchen of the entire fairy courtyard, and cooking some green vegetable gruel every day was even a meal. ”

He comforted again: "Don't look at those senior brothers and sisters, they are very clear, in fact, they are all looking for compensation in private, or they are supported by the Bigu Dan." ”

"Mingyue Zhenren is the most impatient with these, just wait for him to get out, and you don't have to hide in the room to eat secretly. ”

At this time, the peak protruded, Gui Yuan was bluffed, and said with a forced smile: "Where did the senior brother say?"

Wei Yiyi is quite a bachelor, she has a good impression of this Senior Brother Zhu, and she didn't want to hide anything from him, so she stuck out her tongue and said, "If we had known that Senior Brother was coming, we would have left a little for you." But how did Senior Brother know that we were secretly cooking something to eat?"

Without waiting for Zhu Rihe to answer, Mu Tou had already said loudly: "Here." ”

Gui Yuan followed the direction of the wooden finger, and sure enough, she found that there was a little egg liquid left at the corner of Wei Yiyi's mouth, she was afraid that her senior sister would be annoyed, so she quickly moved her eyes away, but her stomach hurt a little with a smile.

The wood had already crawled back on Wei Yiyi, rubbed it on her mouth with his hand, and then actually swallowed this bit of residue into her stomach.

This time it was not much different from the light girl in public, Zhu Rihe couldn't stop it, so he hurriedly made a move and took the wood from his junior sister in the air.

Who knew that the wood actually smacked a few times, and spit out the slag again, with a disgusted expression.

Gui Yuan, who was familiar with Wei Yiyi's temper, secretly mourned for this puppet puppet, shrunk his head and hid behind pretending not to see it. Zhu Rihe's face immediately changed, and he grabbed the villain and asked, "Wood, can you tell what this thing is?"

"Xuanniao's egg, it's terrible to eat!"

"What?!" the two girls exclaimed in unison.

"That's a Xuanniao egg?!"

Xuan is red and black, and as the name suggests, Xuan Bird is a bird with a red coat in black color. However, there is usually only one kind of Xuanyu that people in practice refer to.

In ancient times, Jian Di, the concubine of Emperor Yu Xianjun, bathed by the river, saw the eggs of the Xuanniao, picked them up and ate them, and felt conceived and gave birth to a contract. There are many descendants of the deed, gathered together, and created a line of Shang people.

Therefore, the Xuanniao is also called the child and mother bird, or the child bird.
