Business system: the gods save the world by opening a store

Xuntang lowered his head, full of obedient aura.

The little tiger lady didn't say anything more, she just brought out another plate of rice cakes and handed it to Xuntang, smiling softly:
"A Tang, take the rice cakes and go play with Xiaohu in the room."

Xiaohu beckoned Xuntang to walk in, but Xuntang, who was walking a little slower, clearly heard Xiaohu's mother sigh and say:

"It's a pity that both of Ake's family are girls, but fortunately, the little girl Ake has recruited a girlfriend, otherwise it will be bad when she comes back to the town."

The doubt that flashed in Xuntang's heart, patriarchal?

However, Xuntang felt that it was not as simple as patriarchy, so he didn't know what was hidden behind it.

Xiaohu's room is at the back, not very big, but the most conspicuous thing is a puppet placed a little higher.

An exquisite puppet that obviously doesn't fit in with Xiaohu's gray room. The puppet's face is made of ceramics. Its dark pupils are looking straight ahead. Two bright red dots are dotted on its round face, and its expression is extraordinarily lively. lifelike.

However, the clothes he was wearing were brightly colored and made of silk, which obviously shouldn't appear in Xiaohu's home, as it was too expensive.

You must know that the time in the scene is the ancient times more than 1000 years ago from the modern society, the era of imperial power and distinct classes.

Seeing that Xuntang was staring at the puppet, Xiaohu introduced:
"This is my older sister, but I'm the only one at home who calls her older sister. My parents call her Xiaojuan. I don't understand why I want to call a puppet my older sister. Obviously Maverick's older sister is a beautiful older sister."

Xuntang didn't answer Xiaohu's little annoyance, but just stared at the puppet with a lively expression like a real person, and then quickly looked away.

Perhaps, it was really his sister.

"Hey! I really want my sister. I am the only one in the family. There are several brothers and sisters in other families. There is no helper when I go out to fight."

Xiaohu was still complaining, then he picked out one of the rice cakes that Xuntang put on the table, and stuffed his mouth full.

Xuntang asked: "This puppet seems to be alive, are all the puppets here so alive?"

Xiaohu was in a hurry to speak, sobbing but was choked by the dry rice cake.

Xuntang handed him a glass of water, Xiaohu hurriedly took it and poured it down, let out a long cry.

"I almost choked to death on rice cakes. We are most famous for making puppets. Outsiders will come to us to order puppets."

Xiaohu thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty: "However, not every family here makes such exquisite puppets, and only a few families in the town who have a good relationship with the mayor can make such good puppets. "

Xuntang looked at Xiaohu, but his peripheral vision fell on the puppet.

It was obvious that when she praised the puppet for its beauty, the hand of the puppet, which should have been motionless, shook slightly.

She is relatively young, and is likely to be sealed into a puppet at birth.

Seeing that Xuntang had been staring at his sister, Xiaohu said warily:

"My sister can't take it down to play, she is very important!"

But he was worried that his new friend would be angry and would not play with him, so he hurriedly rummaged through the box and took out his beloved puppet toy.

"This is my toy, let's play together."

There are men and women, old and young, and there are quite a few puppets, but these puppets are obviously not as delicate and lively as the "sister".

Xuntang nodded.

Xiaohu assigned a girl puppet to Xuntang, and then looked at Xuntang expectantly: "How about I perform a puppet show for you? I performed very well!"

In addition to being famous for making puppets in this small town, it is the wonderful puppet show.

Xiaohu grew up in such an environment, so he naturally likes puppet shows very much, but there are more people in the town than he knows, so he is always thrown cold water when he performs.

Now that he finally has a new spectator, he naturally has to perform well, and then listen to the cheerful applause.

Xiaohu played with the puppet, looking decent.

"A long time ago, there was a family with two children, an elder sister and a younger brother. The elder sister was very beautiful. There was a monster on the mountain who wanted her to be his wife. The elder sister was unwilling, but was snatched away by the monster one night. up.

The younger brother cried sadly, and then a beautiful fairy appeared in front of him, and said majesticly, "I will teach you the puppet method, how about saving your elder sister?" '"

Xiaohu first held the puppets of two children, a boy and a girl, and they played happily. Then he put down a piece of black cloth as the sky, and manipulated a monster with blue face and fangs to capture his sister.

The little boy knelt on the ground and cried sadly, and a beautiful fairy in colorful brocade clothes descended from the sky.

Xuntang watched with relish, and then the sister puppet behind her was also attracted, her small body bent forward slightly, her dark eyes focused on the jumping puppet.

The little tiger girl outside the door vaguely heard the sound of the puppet show coming from inside the door, and couldn't help smiling, but her eyes were full of sadness when she saw the moving little porcelain figurine through the crack of the door.

Time passed quickly, and Xuntang was about to bid farewell to go home, but saw hanging on the altar was a beautiful god wearing Qiluo and riding a magnolia cart, followed by a red leopard.

Xuntang looked at the altar with some curiosity, and the little tiger lady said softly: "This is the protector of our town, the best mountain ghost in the world, and you will also ask the mountain ghost to protect you after your home is settled.

Lord Shangui protects us from the mountain to be peaceful, without flash floods and mudslides, and also protects us from the good weather and the safety of picking tea in the mountains. "

Xuntang nodded, bid farewell to Little Huniang and went out, when he was about to go home, he saw a passing young man staring at him.

With a strange expression, he was still chanting: "Good material, good man, good-looking! I found it, hahaha, I found it!"

Xuntang felt a little strange, and when he looked again, the strange young man stumbled away by himself.

It's just that no one knows that in Xuntang's eyes, that person is surrounded by a thick black mist of evil, but it is isolated by something and cannot hurt him.

Xuntang couldn't help but frowned, then turned and went back to his home.

Pushing open the door and entering the main room, looking at the expressions of Ke Mi and Jing Bai, it is clear that the two of them broke free and recovered their memories.

Komi asked, "Did you find anything outside?"

Xuntang: "The worship of mountain ghosts in this small town is consistent with the information we have obtained, but the love for puppets here can be called fanatical, and I guess someone here seals human souls in puppets, in order to get better puppet."

Ke Mi nodded: "After you went out, the mayor came once. He asked us to invite the mountain ghost, saying that every household in the town must worship the mountain ghost, and the mountain ghost protects Fengshan."
