Chapter 64: Wood Armor
Dou Dabao asked curiously, who were those two.
Listening to me tell the story of the plain skirt girl and my brother, everyone was embarrassed.
I noticed that although Zhao Qi had been staring at the river, it was obvious that he had also been touched by the expression between his eyebrows.
"Can people really become puppets?" Sang Lan asked suddenly.
"Oh, I've never seen a person's spiritual sense so powerful, not only can they appear in front of people, but they can also speak!" Jing Hai's thin eyes unconsciously aimed at her chest.
The old monk was not a womanizer, he probably began to think about the piece of ghost head jade that made Sang Lan different again.
Dou Dabao couldn't help frowning, "Old man, you're a lot older, are you ashamed to stare at other girls like this?" ”
Jinghai's old face turned red, coughed dryly twice, and put on a serious appearance and said:
"What is impossible when it comes to love? Besides, those are not ordinary puppets, but wooden armor people who have conquered the creation of heaven and earth. ”
"Is there really a wooden armor in the world?" The blind man asked.
"Of course!"
Jinghai nodded and said: The legend about the wooden armor technique first originated in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Legend has it that King Mu of Zhou hunted in Kunlun and met a craftsman named Yanshi on the way back. King Zhou Mu saw that there was a slave covered in wood grains beside Yanshi, and couldn't help but ask who that person was and why he looked so weird? The Yanshi replied that it was not a real person, but a wooden geisha made of wood.
King Zhou Mu couldn't help but be shocked when he took a closer look, it was really a wood carving person. The most peculiar thing is that this wooden armor man can not only talk like a real person, but also sing and dance. King Mu of Zhou was amazed and called his concubines to enjoy the performance of the wooden armor people, but he didn't expect that when the performance was over, the wooden armor people actually winked at the most beautiful concubine of King Zhou, trying to seduce her.
King Zhou Mu was furious: What are you talking about the wooden armor people, it turns out that a real person pasted a wooden bark to deceive me, the son of heaven. The Yanshi had no choice but to disassemble the wooden armor man to prove his innocence. Only then did King Zhou Mu discover that the wooden armor people were carved from the outside to the inside, along with the internal organs. When the Yanshi regrouped the Wooden Armor People, the Wooden Armor People were the same as real people again.
At this time, King Zhou Mu couldn't help but admire and sigh: it turned out that the skills of craftsmen could reach the level of heaven and earth creation.
Jing Hai shook his head and sighed: "Alas, before the change, I was also half-convinced of the wooden armor technique, but after this trip, there is no doubt about the existence of thaumaturgy." ”
Dou Dabao's eyes suddenly widened in horror: "That beauty has survived after so many years because her soul and the wooden armor man are blended together. To put it this way...... Those puppets wearing cheongsams can kill people because each puppet is mixed with a person's soul? ”
"Oh, my little Buddha, where do you want to go?" Jinghai said exaggeratedly: "In order to stay with your lover for a long time, it is the wonder of the craftsman to send the soul to the wooden armor people. If it's just to create wooden armor for the sake of killing, isn't that sorcery? Most of the other puppets wearing flag costumes are just ordinary wooden armor artists made by wooden armor craftsmen, and they are manipulated to kill people because the people who make them have a grudge against them. ”
"How are they manipulated?" Dou Dabao broke the casserole and asked, "You can't use wood to make the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys that are as good as the real thing, right?" ”
"After all, if a wooden man can move, then he must also have motivation. What motivates them? Ji Yayun and Sang Lan were also full of curiosity.
Jinghai said, "It's magnetism!" Each Wooden Armor has a magnetic tenon embedded in its joints, and with the help of a special magnet, it can be made to act like a real person. ”
Magnet?!
After listening to Jinghai's explanation, everyone felt incredible.
Jinghai sighed: "If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it was true. It can only be said that the wisdom of the ancients is also inferior to that of modern people. Perhaps, it is precisely because some skills have taken over the creation of heaven and earth that they are destined not to be passed on to the world. It's just that I didn't expect that this strange wooden armor technique was lost because of love. ”
Xu Jie and I looked at each other, thinking of the life of the woman in the plain skirt and the wooden brother, and our feelings were complicated.
Dou Dabao looked at Sang Lan, suddenly covered his face, squatted on the ground and said sadly:
"O iniquity! The last wooden armor man was demolished by me and the blind man! If it hadn't been destroyed, how much would it have to sell for if it was carried out? ”
The crowd was speechless.
Jing Hai turned his eyes carefully and looked at Zhao Qi's back: "This Zhao Shizhu, you have a good baby this time." Don't take it out and open our eyes? ”
My heart is pounding, baby? Could it be that the red crescent stone that Zhao Qi took from the coffin was the magnet that could control the wooden armor man?
Zhao Qi didn't seem to hear Jinghai's words, and it wasn't until the speedboat docked that he turned to look at me and said, "Let's go." ”
The blind man wanted to say something, but I stopped him.
The changes in Zhao Qi's performance this night were so great that I felt like he had completely changed into a different person. I don't think he'll be able to listen to what he says now.
Before getting off the boat, Hao Xiangrou seemed to inadvertently glance at the female white-collar worker.
The female white-collar worker acted as if she didn't see it, and walked slowly towards the shore with her hands behind her back.
When the speedboat drove away, I asked the female white-collar worker, "Who are you?" ”
"Yuan Junyao." The female white-collar worker continued to walk forward slowly.
What is this called?
I was about to ask again, but she suddenly stopped, but without looking back, she said:
"If I hadn't been to the inn the night before, you wouldn't have thought of preparing a sacrifice to take the place of the innkeeper's family to worship the river. I was the one who saved their family's life. ”
Jing Hai and I looked at each other, and Jing Hai lowered his eyes and nodded.
As it turned out, the night before I saw my boss and his family jumping into the river in a dream, it seemed to be just an omen. If we don't get a warning, it will be difficult for Jinghai and I to react at once, and then the life or death of the boss's family is a big unknown.
"When did you get on board?" Ji Yayun suddenly asked.
I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that something was wrong.
Including Zhao Qi and Hao Xiangrou, we all swam on the Daiwen from the water, and we are all embarrassed now.
This woman who called herself Yuan Junyao seemed to have suddenly descended from the sky to the boat, and she was wearing a neat and straight skirt, without the slightest trace of water.
Yuan Junyao finally turned around, but said without raising his eyelids: "I don't have time today, if you want to know more truth, come to me the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow in the afternoon." ”
She gave an address, and then suddenly the corners of her mouth raised, revealing a complicated smile: "Remember to bring more money when you come, so that you can find me more easily." ”
The blind man smiled: "Beauty, we can't think of any more truth." ”
Yuan Junyao didn't respond to him, but looked at the hand that Xu Jie and I were holding, raised his eyes and looked at me deeply, turned around, and walked slowly forward with his hands behind his back.
In the next second, she disappeared before our eyes......
