Chapter 155: Scarlet World(1/2)
The eraser is indeed a professional tool for pencils. Under Cheng Ying's meticulous wiping, in just two minutes, the drawing paper in front of her that was filled with various sketches turned into blank. All traces were on the girl's face.
Wipe it carefully and disappear without a trace until it turns into white paper, a piece of ordinary white paper with no trace of painting anymore.
"call!"
Take a deep breath and blow through the scraps. After all the rubber scraps remaining on the paper are blown away, a piece of white paper is revealed in front of their eyes.
Of course, even if all the scenes in the painting have been cleared, He Fei and Cheng Ying, as a veteran, still remain cautious and still stare at the white paper with a nervous expression. It is obvious that unlike newcomers who often only look at the surface, even if the painting
Now that it was a clean slate, in fact they were still worried, always worried about an accident happening, and as a result...
As time continued to pass, staring at the empty white paper in front of them, He Fei's expression gradually changed, Cheng Ying's expression changed, and their faces gradually changed, first from nervousness to paleness, and then from paleness to twitching.
Until it progressed to the point where both bodies were shaking, as if they had fallen into an ice cave!
Because, half a minute later, I saw that the empty white paper tiled on the desktop in front of me began to change. It changed again. Scenes and things emerged out of thin air at a speed visible to the naked eye. Many scenes that had been erased under the eraser earlier disappeared.
In this way, the drawing paper emerges again and comes into view clearly!!!
Plop.
Determined to restore the original sketch on the table, He Fei was stunned for a moment. He Fei's body softened and he sat back on the chair. During the sitting period, his body froze, and he bowed his head like a sculpture without saying a word.
He Fei was like this, and Cheng Ying, who also witnessed the transformation of the painting, was not like this. In other words, the girl had already frozen in place the moment she discovered that the scene had reappeared on the painting paper, frozen in place, wrapped in an indescribable fear.
Invalid, everything is invalid, destruction is invalid, damage is invalid, even eraser is invalid!
Invalid means danger, which means that from now on, in addition to half of the executors who set foot in the forest, the other half of the executors stranded on the farm are also facing danger, facing some kind of danger that can neither be seen nor felt, something that is enough to
The group is in danger of killing everyone here!
I would like to ask if you can't figure out the specific principle of the worm's ability, can you defend it? Can you deal with it?
The answer is no. Since there is no way to prevent it, what will be the final outcome waiting for you?
Although Cheng Ying didn't know whether the ending would be death or living, she knew that it was not the time to despair and wait for death. However, just when she was about to adjust her mentality and cheer up, it was also when she was about to look away from the painting.
, she saw something, accidentally discovered changes, found a slight change in the strange picture that had just been restored, and then...
"Hey, He Fei, look at the painting quickly and look over there in the forest!"
(Um?)
When Cheng Ying shouted, He Fei, who was sitting in front of the table with his head down in a daze, subconsciously raised his head and looked up at the picture. Then, at the prompt of the other party, he turned his eyes to the left side of the drawing paper, looking at the position representing the forest, and at the same time looking at the tight
The 6 firewood people in the forest, next...
An incomprehensible scene came into view:
Looking closely, he saw that the six stick figures clinging to the forest had undergone some changes. Two of them had changed from standing to half-falling at some point. They neither stood up straight nor completely fell to the ground.
The way he bent down and knelt on one knee, both of them maintained a weird posture that they had never seen before, almost falling, and their bodies were shaky!
………
The streets are bustling with people and vehicles are constantly shuttling back and forth. As the center of the urban area, prosperity is a must and noisyness is a must. However, a disharmonious figure appears in this obviously prosperous urban street. No, no, no, no, no.
Harmony, but no matter how you look at this person, he is very different from the clothes of the people around him, and always seems a little out of place.
He lifted up his loose sleeves and shook away his messy hair. At this moment, Chen Xiaoyao, who was wearing a shit-yellow wide robe, was looking around anxiously, waiting anxiously. He just sat against the wall in the crowded street and observed silently.
From time to time, his eyes swept over the men and women passing by. Similarly, when Chen Xiaoyao was observing others, passers-by also cast curious glances at him. After all, no one expected that
A guy wearing an ancient Taoist robe actually appeared. I didn’t expect that this person was so young. To be honest, if the man in front of me was an old man with a gray beard, wearing a wide Taoist robe might still give him an air of immortality.
With a sense of Taoism, even though the clothes are unusual, it is not too out of the ordinary. But what about the reality? The reality is that the person in front of me is extremely young. He is in his early 20s and wearing Taoist robes always feels out of place. He is simply weird.
Whether it's weird or not is always what passers-by think. In fact, Chen Xiaoyao himself doesn't seem to see it that way. In other words, he doesn't care about what others think of him. What he cares about is money, and he urgently needs money. The reason is very simple, because...
He hasn't eaten in two days!
After burying his master a week ago, Chen Xiaoyao was forced to go down the mountain, and now he is wandering the world alone. Before leaving, he even swore in front of his master's tomb, vowing that after he came down from the mountain, he would act heroically to eliminate demons and defend the law, and restore peace to the world.
He was very impassioned at that time, but after going down the mountain, he was dumbfounded. Especially when he took the subway to the city, Taoist Chen suddenly
However, I found that the world at the foot of the mountain is extremely complicated. Not only is the world complicated, but the human heart is even more terrifying. It is at least a hundred times despicable than the simple villagers who live at the foot of Lushan Mountain and often interact with them. Why do they have to use the word 'despicable'? That's because of his money.
I was deceived completely, and as soon as I arrived in the city, I was deceived by several people who claimed to be employment agencies, and then disappeared without a trace.
Of course, as the saying goes, one learns from the experience. As a naturally resourceful person, Chen Xiaoyao was praised as a Taoist wizard many times by his master in public. When he saw his property being defrauded, Chen Xiaoyao, who was very savvy, decisively learned the experience and applied it, and he was able to do it that day.
I used the same trick to deceive an old lady who was passing by!
Chen Xiaoyao was very happy, but it was a pity that he had bad luck. He had just used the fraudulent money to eat a seafood meal, and a group of police officers came to the restaurant to investigate...
Chen Xiaoyao never expected that retribution would come so quickly. This really fulfills Master's words. If you don't know it, and if you don't do it yourself, you will get retribution for doing bad things. What's more, you are also known as slaying demons and defending the Tao.
My appointed Maoshan disciple?
After he was released from the detention center, although he was already penniless, Chen Xiaoyao finally realized that he would never dare to cheat again. That was true, but the pain of not eating or drinking for two consecutive days was very difficult for people to bear.
, in desperation, Chen Daoshi had to choose a noisy neighborhood
He set up a fortune-telling stall in an attempt to rely on his immature fortune-telling skills to make a living on his own. The tools were simple. In addition to a yellow cloth with a gossip pattern spread in front of him, there were only two low horses around him.
Taoist Taoist Chen dug the pomaza from a nearby trash can.
There is no greater misery in the world than this. Who would have thought that a Taoist priest from Maoshan with real talent and knowledge would be reduced to rummaging through garbage as soon as he got off the mountain?
At this moment, enduring the hunger in his belly and facing the various looks of passers-by, Chen Xiaoyao observed and waited for a long time, but unfortunately no one paid attention from morning to night. Upon noticing this, the young man was greatly confused, and then he became more and more suspicious of his master.
After all, when I first became a disciple, my master made a vow to
He swore that when a Taoist priest was respected by thousands of people, not only would girls like him, but he would also have no worries about food and drink after coming down the mountain. Chen Xiaoyao didn't believe it at first, but after he discovered that every time the master came down the mountain, someone would always treat him to dinner, and gradually, the young man believed it.
, only then did I completely strengthen my determination to practice Taoism.
Can……
Why?
Why did he end up living on the street without enough food after he came down from the mountain? Not to mention that he had not yet realized that he had enough to eat and drink, and the girls passing by all looked at him with the eyes of a mentally ill person?
Because the gap between reality and hope was too big, Chen Xiaoyao was confused and at a loss. Of course, he didn't know that what the master said at that time was purely to lie to him. It was just the nonsense of an old bastard, and the purpose was nothing more than to lure him up the mountain.
Accepting him as a disciple is a matter of course
Of course, after finally encountering a Taoist wizard with great talent in his later years, how could the old magician let him go so easily? For the future inheritance of Maoshan Taoism, as expected, the old magician, who never liked to lie, immediately broke his precepts and deceived the other person.
Fooled up the mountain.
The above are cruel truths, but what is even more cruel is that no one showed up when Chen Xiaoyao set up his stall for a day. He had a vague premonition that his master had been deceiving him. Unfortunately, it was too late to realize it now, so he had no choice but to hold on while suppressing the hunger in his belly.
On the other hand, he cursed loudly in his heart.
(Ah! Master, you old bastard, this is how you fooled me. I, I was fooled by you...)
As the saying goes, persistence is victory, and waiting will eventually lead to results. Just when Taoist Chen was sighing up to the sky and cursing his master secretly, a miracle happened. He listened to a series of footsteps approaching, and not long after, a fashionably dressed female passerby stopped in front of the stall.
(Um?)
Sure enough, when he saw someone stopping to look at him and seeing that he was young and beautiful, Taoist Chen was overjoyed. He smiled and greeted politely: "Huh? Does this lady tell fortunes? Come on, come on, sit down, sit down!"
I don’t know whether the attentive greeting had the effect or the other party had this intention. Following the attentive greeting of the young man, after laying a piece of white paper towel on the Mazar, the beautiful woman bent down and sat down, and then asked tentatively with a curious face: "This little Taoist
Chief, are you sure you know how to tell fortunes?"
(Damn! If I don’t know how to tell fortunes, no one in the world will know how to tell fortunes!)
As mentioned above, because Chen Xiaoyao looked too young, the woman asked tentatively. Unexpectedly, this question was equivalent to giving Chen Xiaoyao a loud slap in the face, which immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the young man. Obviously, since he had the guts to set up a fortune-telling stall,
Then he must have two brushes. Let alone whether the calculation is accurate or not, just his identity as a direct disciple of Taoist Priest Ziwei of Lushan is enough to explain everything. Of course, not
Feeling unhappy, in order to have money to eat and fill his stomach, Taoist Chen still kept a smile on his face and nodded frequently. He immediately waved his sleeves in a noble manner and replied: "Real gold is not afraid of fire to refine, real people are not afraid of sticks, poor Taoist
Although his age may seem ordinary, he actually comes from the sect of Zhenren Ziwei from Lushan Mountain. He is usually best at exorcising worms and subduing demons. As for this mere fortune-telling? Haha, you are killing chickens and cows with a knife!"
Not to mention, with her naturally excellent verbal skills and her bragging and chest-beating assurances, the woman became interested. After looking at the young man for a few times, she nodded and continued: "Okay, since I have nothing to do, I'll just invite you.
Please do the math for me."
Business is coming!
Facing the first business that he had waited for all day long, Taoist Chen could not have been happier. His smile grew even brighter and he quickly asked: "In that case, what do you think Miss is thinking? Fortune? Life? Or maybe it's...
Marriage in the future? I’m not boasting, but there is nothing that Pindao can’t calculate above, and the price is fair and fair!”
As the saying goes, sex means a knife to the head, and profit means evil around you. Many times, driven by interests, people tend to ignore others and only focus on the present. This is the case for others. This is especially true for Chen Xiaoyao, who is in urgent need of money for food. Seeing someone giving away
When money came to his door, Chen Xiaoyao, who had been hungry for two days, focused all his attention on
He was all focused on the wallet in the woman's hand. While observing the thickness of the wallet, he guessed how much money the other party could give him after everything was done. Anyway, he had already made up his mind. No matter what the outcome would be, he would always put the best forward.
If the woman is happy with the deception, the other party might be able to give her a little more reward!
However, precisely because Chen Daoshi was too focused on his wallet and making money, he overlooked something in the process, ignored a detail, and thus did not see the woman opposite her mouth slightly twitching when she took out her wallet, and a flash of light flashed across her face.
The cold smile is gone.
"Um, I wonder if the little Taoist can read palms?"
"Palmistry? No problem, no problem! It's a trivial matter. I can see everything. Come on, come on, extend your hand!"
The so-called palmistry refers to a fortune-telling method based on the lines on the palms to predict fortune and misfortune. Let’s not talk about the specific principles for the time being. Chen Xiaoyao has dabbled in the common palmistry predictions among the people. Chen Taoist originally thought that such a beautiful and clean beauty could not be possible.
