I'm back after slacking the paranoid villain

The two spent a day cleaning the yard, Shen Shu rejected Gu Yan's proposal to let him sleep with him, and tidied up the room next door as his bedroom.

In the evening, after making the bed, Shen Shu coaxed Gu Yan, who had been holding back all this time, back to his room, and then unpacked the luggage he had carried back.

Apart from a few sets of slightly worn clothes, there was only a dark wooden box left in the backpack.

Shen Shu tidied up his clothes, closed the closet door, and placed the wooden box on the table.

The wooden box looks like it has been around for a while, and some places have been worn down to the paint, slightly glowing wood yellow, and the pattern on it is also intermittent, and the original shape cannot be seen.

Shen Shu opened the box, and there was a piece of rusted iron inside, and other than that there were a few pieces of oddly shaped wood, it was hard to tell what it was at first glance.

He took out the three pieces of wood and assembled them together with nimble fingers, and the three pieces of wood suddenly became the shape of an arm.

At the moment when the last joint was buckled, the one-finger-long wooden arm seemed to be a real arm with flesh and blood. The muscles and bones were clear, the joints were flexible, and the slightly protruding blood vessels seemed to have blood flowing in them.

Shen Shu looked at it for a while, then removed the fingers and palms from the arm one by one, and the arm became a few pieces of wood with no characteristics.

Apart from looking for Gu Yan this time, he had another task, which was to find other parts of the puppet with only one arm left, and assemble it completely.

Shen Shu never understood why the teacher picked him up back then. It wasn't until the teacher handed the box to him before he came back this time that he explained the cause and effect to him.

In this world, there is something invisible to human beings. It is born in the bad luck of the heaven and the earth, and grows in the filth of the world. It is called "spirit".

Spirits are inherently evil, and the newly born low-level spirits will attach to human beings according to their instincts, affect their minds, and magnify their negative emotions.The attached person will suddenly change his personality drastically, from gentle to irritable, from sincere and kind to selfish and hypocritical.

When these people are completely dragged into the abyss, the lower spirits will harvest their souls as nourishment.

The lower spirits will grow slowly, and when they become the higher spirits with thoughts, they become the nightmare of human beings, and they can directly absorb the souls of human beings.

But the evil is hidden deep in the body of this kind of thing, they disdain to kill people directly, they like to play with human beings, watching human beings struggle in despair, the souls in despair are the delicacy of the soul.

And the puppet master is the only natural enemy of these spirits.

Puppeteers can counter-control spirits, erase their consciousness and imprint their own marks, seal them into dead objects, and make their own puppets.

The stronger the puppet master's spiritual awareness, the easier it is to perceive the existence of spirits, and he can also control higher-level spirits, so the puppets he creates are naturally more powerful.

As for things like spiritual knowledge, two points depend on acquired hard work, and eight points depend on innateness. Without talent, no amount of effort is useless, so many puppeteers cannot improve their skills throughout their lives.

Shen Shu is different from others, he is born with a nine-to-nine score, and he only needs a little effort to get a full score. His physique is called a puppet physique.

It stands to reason that the spirit puppet's physique will definitely become a favorite, and no matter what, he doesn't have to sit in a corner and suffer.But the word "puppet" in the spirit puppet is broken, and the spirit puppet's physique is not only a natural puppet master, but also the top puppet container.

The higher the level of spirits, the more high-level containers are needed. Ordinary puppets and puppets cannot accommodate high-level spirits, so puppet masters try their best to find good materials to use as containers, but no matter how good the material is, it is definitely not as good as The body of the last puppet physique.

The few so-called "spiritual puppets" that have been scrambled for now are just defective products, and the arm in the box is the real spiritual puppet refined from the bones of the spiritual puppets.

The teacher couldn't bear that he became a puppet in the hands of others without knowing anything, so he took him back.

Shen Shu thought of his own dream at that time, no wonder, a small person like him would inexplicably bring about a murderous disaster.

"You are still young, it is impossible to stay here forever, you always have to go out and have a look, but you must be careful in everything when you go out."

The teacher's words were still in his ears, Shen Shu pulled out the key chain from his neck, besides the two keys, there was also a crescent-white sailing pendant on it, the sailing pendant could help him conceal his special physique, but it was not safe after all.

So he needs to piece together the spirit puppet in his hand as soon as possible, so as to ensure his safety.

But where to find it, Shen Shu was very worried. If he wanted to find other parts, he would most likely have to contact other puppet masters. If he came into contact with the puppet master Gu Yan, he would be easily exposed.

We can only take one step at a time.

Shen Shu let out a long breath and put away his things.

There was no dream all night, Gu Yan got up early the next day to cook, Shen Shu woke up and smelled the aroma of the rice, he was worried that Gu Yan's change of personality after sleeping did not happen.

After breakfast, Gu Yan sent him all the way to the gate of Xihua No. [-] Junior High School.

"Shushu, I'll pick you up at noon, and you must wait for me before you go home." Gu Yan solemnly instructed.

Shen Shu nodded, watched him turn and leave, and then walked into the school.

The school did not know when it was renovated, and the previous fence gates were replaced with large iron gates.

After Shen Shu walked in, he looked at the brand-new but unfamiliar teaching building, looked around twice, turned into a small shop in the corner, and asked the boss about the location of the back office, then walked back along the side path.

Bypassing the teaching building, there was a row of low buildings next to the back wall. Shen Shu couldn't help showing a smile on his face as he looked at this row of familiar buildings.

This used to be the teachers' offices. I didn't expect that the teaching building was replaced with a new one, and the old office was still here.

It's just that there were no words or signs on the door, Shen Shu could only find Teacher Song's office before, and tried to knock on the door.

Was it Mr. Song who opened the door, but a handsome and gentle young man.He touched his glasses lightly, and smiled before he could speak.

"Hello, what's the matter?"

Shen Shudao: "Hello, I'm here to find Mr. Song from the logistics department. May I ask which office Mr. Song is in?"

The young man turned sideways and signaled Shen Shu to come in: "Are you Shen Shu? Mr. Song told me yesterday that you are coming to work. I am also in the logistics department. My name is Shen Junqing. Come in first."

There are two desks in the office, one of which is messy and has half a bowl of unfinished instant noodles on it, and the other is clean and tidy, with a computer on it.

Shen Junqing asked Shen Shu to sit at his desk and poured him a cup of hot water.

"Ms. Song got up late, and she won't be here for a while. Drink a glass of water first."

After speaking, he sat in his seat and slowly introduced the work of the logistics department to Shen Shu.

He spoke unhurriedly, and he had an aura that made it easy for people to like him. When he introduced the work, he also told Shen Shu the temperament of some people he would contact.

After the introduction, he said with a smile: "Probably that's the content. In fact, there are no big things on weekdays, but it will be a little busy when there are holidays and school activities."

Shen Shu nodded, it was really not difficult, he just took care of the purchase and allocation of equipment and tools in the school, and checked the hygiene every day.

Shen Junqing opened the drawer, took out a form and handed it to Shen Shu: "From now on, you will follow the content on the form, and come to me if you encounter any problems."

Shen Shu didn't take the form, his eyes fell on a small wood carving in Shen Junqing's drawer, and his eyes widened slightly.

The wooden carving is a puppy, with fine workmanship and lifelike, but a few intermittent dark lines on the body spoil the overall beauty.

Shen Junqing glanced at him, smiled and took out the wood carving and put it on the table, asking, "Do you like wood carving?"

Shen Shu subconsciously touched the pendant hidden in his clothes, and a slightly surprised smile appeared on his face: "Did you carve this? You are so skillful."

Even better than Gu Yanshou five years ago, at least ten years of practice.

Hearing this sentence, Shen Junqing frowned slightly for some reason, his smile became a little forced, and a bit of bitterness appeared on his face.

He shook his head slightly: "I used to carve it, but now my hand...is born, and I can't afford a carving knife, otherwise I can carve one for you as an entry-level gift."

Speaking of his right hand unconsciously curling up towards the inside of his wrist, Shen Shu just glanced at it casually, and saw a hideous scar running through the palm of his hand.

Shen Junqing also looked down at the scar on his palm, smiled and said: "When I was young, I was ignorant and too playful, but it's okay, it won't affect my normal life."

Naturally, Shen Shu would not ask about other people's private affairs, so he wanted to change the topic. He thought of Teacher Song's state that did not match his age, and asked Shen Junqing softly: "Mr. Shen, is there something wrong with Teacher Song? 50 years old, how could..."

Shen Junqing shook his head slightly: "I don't know exactly what's going on, I've been here for less than a year, and Mr. Song's health was already very bad when I came here, but it should have something to do with his son."

Teacher Song's son?

Shen Shu has met Mr. Song's son, he is very knowledgeable and friendly.Like Mr. Song, he chose to be a teacher, and he has a high degree of education. After graduation, he seems to be teaching in a high school in the city.

"What happened to him?" Shen Shu asked.

What happened to make Mr. Song look like that?

As soon as the words were finished, the office door was knocked open, and a figure staggered in. Before Shen Shu could see his face clearly, this person threw himself down in front of Shen Junqing.

Shen Junqing quickly helped the person up, and only then did Shen Shu see the person's face clearly.

Although he was not familiar with Mr. Song's son, he recognized him at a glance. He was the young man he had seen before.

However, he is in a very embarrassing condition right now, his hair is messy and tangled on his head, his beard is brushed, his face is black and white, his clothes are dirty and rotten, and black cotton wool is exposed in several places .

The most frightening thing was his eyes, his left eye was empty, and the shriveled eyelid drooped down, without the support of the eyeball, it was deeply sunken.

He held Shen Junqing's hand, whimpering, not knowing what he was talking about.

Shen Junqing anxiously asked him if something happened to Mr. Song and where he was. Before he could ask clearly, two security guards chased him to the door of the office, swinging sticks and panting.

"You idiot, get out of here!"

As he spoke, he swung the stick down and hit Mr. Song's son on the back.

Shen Junqing quickly pulled the man behind him, frowned and said: "This is Teacher Song's son, I will send him out immediately."

The security guard sneered: "Of course I know that he is old man Song's son, Mr. Shen, you'd better take care of their family's affairs, so as not to get bad luck."

"Okay, okay, let him get out quickly. This kind of person can't stay in the school. If you see him approaching the door in the future, you will break his leg and throw him to the door of their house." Another person said with disgust.

Teacher Song's son, who is about 1.8 meters tall, is shivering behind Shen Junqing's back now, whimpering sadly like a puppy in his throat. After the security guard left, Shen Junqing calmed his emotions and asked softly: "Shao Yuan Don't be afraid, he's gone, tell me, did something happen to your father?"

Song Shaoyuan raised his head cautiously, with snot and tears streaming all over his face, he said inarticulately: "Dad... is dead, Wang... Wang beat Dad, he died!"
