Chapter 1225: The Paper Binding Shop Continued 1
Meng Po: "Well, I met a lot of people and things when I left, and I know that the world is so big, and when everything comes to an end, ten years have passed when I look back." β
Su Xin is deeply aware of this, and sometimes going deep into a case and following the clues in it often involves a lot of things.
It's really a decade in the blink of an eye.
"When I came back ten years later, I found that the entire Fengzhi County was very deserted, especially in the east of the city, and the surrounding shops had basically moved away. When I asked, I found out that not long after I left, the place naturally deserted somehow. Everyone felt eerie when they arrived here, and after a long time, no one came, and the shops naturally moved away. β
"I felt that something was wrong, and hurried back to this place, and as soon as I pushed the door open, I saw a woman sitting upright in the middle......"
"At first glance, I thought it was a paper piercing person, but I sensed a faint soul power on it, and a voice was calling my mother, and I was a spirit. That's my Jane. β
"I picked up that Zhen'er at that time, and found that the other party was so light, and then slowly turned into a real paper man. I saw that the yin qi emanated from the paper figures around me and wrapped around Zhen'er, I hurriedly blindfolded these paper figures with notes and paste, and then replaced Zhen'er's body through the method, but unfortunately, her soul did not know where it went. β
Su Xin sighed, "I see. That... What did you say about moving things around the house at will? β
Meng Po: "I left a soul mark on Zhen'er, as long as the soul is not extinguished, the mark will not disappear." The soul mark on her body is still there, so I want to get her soul back by conjuring spirits, but... Those things come and make a mess of the house, and if I move, they hide in the paper figures. β
Su Xin: "Can't you just burn those paper figures?" β
Meng Po shook her head: "Zhen'er must have something to do with those paper people when she becomes like this, if she burns it, she will lose the only clue, I can't..."
Su Xin listened to a long story, looked at the sky, it was already the second half of the day.
In other words, the root of the problem now falls on Meng Po's apprentice, Zhen'er's husband, Luo Pingzhang.
Su Xin: "When you came back, you saw your apprentice?" β
Meng Po shook her head, "That's it when I come back. β
Su Sin: "That...... You've checked the paper figure, but what's out of the ordinary? β
Meng Po shook her head again.
Su Xin took a breath, and the clue was broken again here.
Meng Po has been here for five years without clues, and Zhen'er is her daughter, so it is impossible to be sloppy in the slightest.
Su Xin saw that Meng Po was like this, and she couldn't figure out anything for a while.
Su Xin thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, do you know the paper shop in the west of the city?" β
"I've heard that Zhang Miao had an accident two years ago, and then there has been no news."
Su Xin: "I heard before that there is an apprentice who is still there and has opened a shop elsewhere. Do you have any impressions? β
Meng Po thought about it and said with a puzzled expression: "Does Wu Miao have an apprentice?" I haven't heard of it. I passed by twice from there, and I only saw Zhang Miao alone, and I didn't see anyone else... Is it that every time I go in, there is only one person and the others are busy with other things? β
The last sentence was more like she was talking to herself.
Su Xin was taken aback, "What, you mean you only see one person?" No one else? β
Meng Po shook her head, "How could I be wrong. β
Su Xin believed that although Meng Po looked old, because of her abilities and the blessings of powerful merits, she was not old and dizzy at all.
Since she only saw Wu Miao alone when she passed by several times, there must be only one person in that paper-binding shop!
In this case, the person pretending to be the apprentice of the shop is very problematic.
Immediately, a question surfaced: since there was only one person, why did Su Xin learn about the information before, and even the neighbors said that the shopkeeper had two apprentices?
Is everyone wrong?
Su Xin thought for a while, and it was not early, so she got up and said goodbye.
As for Zhen'er lying on the bed, Su Xin didn't have a good solution, so she could only take one step at a time.
Meng Po sent Su Xin out, and when she passed the long and narrow shop in front again, Su Xin subconsciously glanced at the paper figure next to her.
Those paper figures stood layer by layer, not knowing if it was her psychological effect, and always felt that as she left, they all turned to her unconsciously.
The blindfolded eyes under the white paper stared at her, which made Su Xin wonder in the bottom of her heart: What are these paper people staring at themselves? Do you want to fix yourself?
Why not get your hands dirty? Or are you afraid of your own strength?
Su Xin's heart suddenly moved, jealous? Now that they have gathered all their spiritual power and aura, they now look like an ordinary person, how can they be afraid?
Don't?
Before she knew it, Su Xin had walked out of the paper shop.
Meng Po said something to Su Xin, then turned back, bent back to the store.
Su Xin's shop was a little lower than the street, and there was a ladder, but it was only three or four meters away, but Meng Po's figure suddenly became blurred, as if they were separated by dozens of meters.
Su Xin's brow furrowed slightly, becoming more alert.
A strange palpitating feeling floated up, so familiar...... It's like camping with a caravan that day.
Wrong!
Su Xin was completely reflexive, and slammed the two spirit runes in his hand on the stone stairs in front of the store, on both sides, and then returned to the store with a move.
Her eyes fell on the paper figures on both sides, and it didn't matter if she looked at it, her hairs stood on end in fright.
I saw the place where the paper man's eyes were originally covered with paste and white paper, and when Su Xin looked at it, the white paper was slowly torn off, revealing his eyes and eyebrows.
Immediately after, the paper figures began to move left and right, becoming more and more intense, and then touching all the paper figures around them.
For a moment, the whole store was shaking.
With a clicking sound, the white paper that was blindfolded fell off one after another, as if someone had torn off the white paper note by an invisible force.
Wisps of white mist bubbled out of the eyes, quickly filling the room.
"Ah, Jane, Janeβ" A hoarse old voice came.
Su Xin turned her head to look and saw that Meng Po had gradually turned into a paper figure under her nose!
And Meng Po's soul is still struggling in the paper figure, just like the night watchman he met when he was camping.
