"What's the matter?" Seeing Su An stop, You Li also stopped his own steps, and asked softly.

"It's okay, maybe it's my delusion." Facing Youli, Su An showed a smile on his face, hiding the anxiety in his heart.

……

In a remote place in Nancheng, a shadow puppet show has just ended, and the audience who rushed to watch the shadow puppet show has begun to disperse. The old man who played the shadow puppet show greeted the dispersed audience with a smile on his face, and his hands were methodical. I packed up the shadow puppets I used in the performance, and put them carefully into the box.

With a sound of "click", suddenly a box opened by itself, and a shadow puppet jumped out of the box by itself and stood on the box.

This shadow puppet cut is a six-eared macaque. I have to admire the exquisite technique of the maker. The shadow puppet is only a thin layer, but this macaque is so lifelike that even the hair on its body is clearly visible.

At this time, the shadow macaque was standing on the box containing the shadow puppet, listening attentively. I don't know if it was an illusion, but the six ears of the macaque were trembling slightly.

Seeing this, the old man who played the shadow puppet disappeared the smile on his face, looked around, then stood up straight and took two steps forward, blocking the six-eared macaque standing on the box behind him, while shaking himself Two paper figurines cut out of red paper slipped from the sleeves.

The paper figurine was three inches in size and held a pair of scissors in its hand. After landing, it grinned and moved its legs to spread around, guarding the box in the middle.

The old man playing the shadow puppet lowered his gaze to cover up the sharpness in his eyes, but he controlled every move around him in his heart.

"ah,"

After a while, the six-eared macaque behind the old man let out a low cry. Hearing this sound, the old man turned around and looked at the shadow puppet of the six-eared macaque.

"Ah, ah," the macaque seemed to be a real living thing, pointing in the direction of Nancheng, yelling in its mouth, as if talking about something.

The old man who turned around stared at the shadow macaque with a pair of abyss-like eyes, quietly listening to the cries of the macaque, with a flash of brilliance in his eyes.

"Hey, old man Pi, your shadow puppet show is really authentic, where is it going to be performed tomorrow, I will go to see it tomorrow,"

At this time, the audience had dispersed, but there was still a man who was reluctant to part with the shadow puppet show before, and said to the old man who blocked the shadow puppet monkey with his body.

The man's words did not get a response from the so-called old man Pi.

"Huh? Old man Pi, what's the matter with you," the man looked at Old Man Pi's motionless back, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, he couldn't help but stepped forward, and came to Old Man Pi's side.

The man who came close saw the six-eared macaque covered by old man Pi's body.

"Oh, old man Pi, where did you get this little monkey? This should belong to protected animals," the man didn't realize for a while that the macaque was just a shadow puppet.

"Erzhuzi from the same village as me once caught one like this, and it was finally discovered by the Forestry Bureau, and it has been squatting in a cage for more than three months," the man didn't notice it when he stood beside Old Man Pi. , a small figure appeared behind him, it was a villain cut out of red paper, holding a pair of paper scissors in his hand.

Slowly, the man seemed to have discovered something, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then he took two steps to the side, and after two steps, he went to look at the macaque, the doubt in the man's eyes turned into shock, and he couldn't help but widen Mouth wants to scream.

However, just as the man's voice reached his throat and before he yelled out, he saw a flash of cold light from the corner of his eyes, and then blood sprayed, his throat was cut off, and the voice in his mouth could no longer be uttered.

"Ho, ho ho, uh..."

The man covered his neck with both hands, trying to block the blood that was slashed and sprayed everywhere, but it didn't help, the hot blood spilled down the man's fingers to the ground.

Feeling the passing of vitality, the man looked at the small figure standing in front of him, staggered backwards, his pupils were full of horror.

I saw a villain standing in front of the man, a real villain, as small as three inches high, with a thin layer, holding a pair of scissors reflecting the cold light in his hand, and cutting out a pair of red paper scissors, which cut the man's throat.

"laugh,"

There was another sound of a sharp weapon being scratched on the flesh. The man felt the pain from his leg. He paused backwards and turned his head in panic. It turned out that there was an extra paper man behind him at some time, who was next to him. It was exactly the same as the previous one, cut out of red paper, a three-inch tall paper figurine.

Old man Pi is of course not the name of this old man who plays shadow puppetry, but he has always called himself this way to the outside world, and he likes this name very much. The old man who plays shadow puppetry is definitely old man Pi.

However, the old man who turned around at this time did not have the naive smile he had when playing shadow puppetry, and his expressionless face showed a trace of disregard for human life. He watched the man whose throat was cut and sprinkled his own blood all around There was no change in the eyes from beginning to end.

As the blood flowed, the cold surrounded the man. Slowly, the man's legs softened and he could no longer stand. He collapsed to the ground and fell straight into his own blood. The brilliance gradually dimmed, and finally there was no sound.

Until the man died, Old Man Pi's eyes did not have any fluctuations, only after his death did his eyes change slightly.

"It's windy, you should move more quickly,"

Old man Pi took one last look at the dead man on the ground, then raised his head to look in the direction of Nancheng, and said faintly,

And following Old Man Pi's words, a rustling sound sounded behind him. From the box behind him, thin shadow puppets found out one by one, and walked up with their calves. The red paper figurine is exactly the same, except that instead of scissors it is holding a small shovel.

The paper figurine walked up to the dead man with its calf. The calf stepped on the blood, and the blood spread upward along the paper figurine's legs, infecting the already red paper figurine with even more evil charm. Even the shovel cut out of red paper also flashed a metallic luster at this time, giving people a hard and sharp feeling.

"laugh,"

The shovel in the paper figurine's hand actually shoveled into the ground, and the ground that was trampled by people looked like tofu under the shovel cut out of red paper in the paper figurine's hand.

This scene was really weird. Two red paper figurines with shovels dug a big hole in the ground one by one. Behind the paper figurines stood many shadow puppets whose faces could not be clearly seen.

In just a few minutes, a hole big enough to accommodate a person appeared on the ground, but the two paper figurines with shovels did not stop until they dug the big hole to a depth of about two meters.

The shovel in the paper figurine's hand shoveled into the blood-red soil, and it actually absorbed the blood in the soil. After digging the big hole, the blood that the man splattered around before disappeared completely, and there was no trace of it. The two paper figurines became more and more bright red.

In the end, the four paper figurines pushed the man with his eyes wide open, who was dying to die, into the pit, and then the man with the small shovel filled the pit with soil.

And at the place where the man fell to the ground and died, there was actually another figure, with the same appearance as the man, but he seemed a little erratic from top to bottom, exuding a ghostly aura.

This is the man's ghost. After experiencing the initial confusion, the man seemed to understand his situation. Looking at the murderer who killed him standing in front of him, a burst of resentment rose in the man's heart. As the resentment surged, the man's body The ghost aura in his body fluctuated, becoming stronger and stronger, and gradually reaching its peak.

But just when the man stood up and was about to take revenge with his own hands, he found himself surrounded by a group of shadow puppets. The flashing light in the eyes of the shadow puppets surrounded him was like a wolf seeing food.

"Hurry up, we still have to hurry,"

Old man Pi completely ignored the glaring glaring at him from the ghost of the dead man, and said lightly as he still looked in the direction of downtown Nancheng with his lightly raised head.

And following the old man Pi's words, the shadow puppet who surrounded the man and couldn't bear it earlier swarmed up.

"Ah, ah..."

After the screams, everything returned to calm, and the place remained the same, with no trace of what happened before.

Only a figure carrying a shadow puppet box walked here, heading towards the direction of Nancheng City.
