MTL - Okay, I Can’t Eat This-Chapter 73
After a long silence.
"So...why are we kneading mud here?" The girl's boyfriend was blank, holding two pieces of mud in his hands.
On the other hand, the dumplings had a great time playing, so they first squeezed a chicken and showed it to Xie Chi.
"Didn't you say it? Make it something to possess." Xie Chi also pinched it there seriously, but to be honest, she really didn't have any talent in this area, and the pinched thief was ugly and crooked.
She looked at the clay figurine she had pinched for a long time, and finally silently patted it back and turned it into a clay cake.
"I know this, but why are we kneading clay figurines..." The girl's boyfriend was still at a loss.
Meng Shu gave him popular science: "Have you heard the legend of Nuwa creating a human?"
"Have heard..." No one doesn't know this legend, unless they are not natives.
"Nuwa uses mud to create people. You can understand it as grounded air, so it is easier to have spirituality." Meng Shu briefly explained two sentences, mainly because it is too annoying to explain this kind of thing. Completely explain it clearly and don't know how many allusions to tell, he is lazy.
Sun Wen, girl, and her boyfriend:…
Is grounding gas still used for this?
In the end, the dumplings were hilarious. They squeezed all kinds of small animals and came out. Xie Chi also played with her, but the other people were very serious. The most unexpected thing was that the best-looking clay figurine was not the girl, but the girl. her boyfriend.
"Since that's the case, I'll leave this task to you." Xie Chi asked the girl to tell her birth date. Meng Shu immediately put a talisman on the table, wrote the birthday charisma on it, and then rolled the talisman paper. I took the roll and gave it to the girl's boyfriend.
The girl's boyfriend was under a lot of pressure with this thing, so he daringly began to pinch a new clay figurine. Before pinching, he had to put the birthday characters in it, then wrapped it in mud, and finally kneaded it into a complete clay figurine.
After pinching, a few people gathered together and carved facial features on it.
Eyes, nose and mouth are a must, but it doesn't matter if you don't have hair or something, but Miss Sister is very determined to get her hair out: "Even if it's a clay figurine, I can't be bald!"
Xie Chi looked at her hair and said, "Do you often stay up late?"
girl: QAQ
She is not particularly bald, but she can already see that the hair on the top of her head is thinner than elsewhere, especially the mid-section line on the top of her head, which is so clear.
Xie Chi comforted her: "It's okay, although it is easy to lose hair when you are alive, but after death, the hair transplant will not fall out again. My pretty sister is very good at this, and I will give you a 20% discount when the time comes."
girl:…
I didn't receive any consolation, and I even wanted to cry a little.
After the clay figurine was pinched, it was dried immediately. It was as long as forearms and lay on the table. Meng Shu put the talisman on the girl again, suppressing her breath: "You don't go out for the next two days, Apart from going to the toilet, he spends the rest of the time in the bedroom."
"Okay." The girl was very nervous: "Is this all right? You don't need to open an altar to do a ritual or something?"
"It's a big scene that really needs to open the altar, and I don't need it at ordinary times." Xie Chi was still accompanying the dumplings to dry the small animals made by the dumplings, and said without raising his head: "You don't need this small scene. "
"Hey, okay." The young lady retreated into the bedroom again.
Meng Shu is sticking talismans in her bedroom, and sealing all the doors and windows can be considered preventive measures.
After doing all this, he went out to buy some things and came back. He sat in the living room and started to cut paper. If you want to deceive ghosts, you can't just rely on a clay figurine. That is just the core, something that can be possessed by ghosts.
Now to do is shell.
That is, paper figures that look like people.
In this respect, Meng Shu can be called very strong. The paper figurines he cut out look very professional, no worse than the ones sold in human stores.
"You still have such craftsmanship?" Xie Chi said in surprise.
Meng Shu laughed: "This is what our family does. Although I didn't inherit the old man's craftsmanship, I still helped a lot at home when I was a child. It's not a problem to cut a paper man."
Xie Chi suddenly realized that in fact, many veteran craftsmen in the funeral industry know a little bit of metaphysics, but with the changes of the times, not many have been passed down.
In the past, many veteran craftsmen in the funeral industry could still make utensils, but now they are almost invisible.
"My grandfather made the peach wood sword on my back." Meng Shu said while cutting paper: "He told me when I was young that I have talent in this area, and taking this road is better than selling it at home. The income of the coffin is more promising."
"That's pretty good too." Xie Chi sighed, it's really much better for someone in the family to understand this than no one at all. Many children have opened their eyes to Yin and Yang when they were young, especially some talented ones. If they can learn the Tao If so, the achievement will not be bad.
But the family doesn't understand it, so they think it's a child talking nonsense. Many children will become withdrawn and autistic because of this, because they can see things that adults can't see, and adults think it's a lie, so they will be less willing to talk to them. people communicated.
Some people who are superstitious at home will also look for godmothers and teachers to show them to children. Eighty percent of them are liars. They pour talisman water into children at any time, and it is a good thing that they are not sick.
Xie Chi had seen one before, he was in his 20s, and his yin and yang eyes were still there, but he usually pretended that he couldn't see those things, and he was very withdrawn because he was involved in a murder case, and he knew Xie Chi. .
After knowing that many people in this world can see ghosts, and knowing that he is not hallucinating, his mental state gradually improved.
"It's done." Meng Shu cut the paper figurine, put down the pen, and used a wooden stand to support the paper figurine. The facial features must be drawn, just like the finishing touch, so as to have a spirit.
Xie Chi took out the human skin mask and threw it to Meng Shu. Meng Shu put the mask on the paper figurine's face and clapped his hands: "Then just wait."
If it is fast for one day and slow for three days, it should be effective, so there must be someone watching at all times to prevent problems.
There were only three people present who understood this, Xie Chi, Tuanzi, and Meng Shu, so the three of them had to take turns on duty.
Sun Wen should go home, but he was too curious about this kind of thing, so he stayed after telling the family. When the family heard that they were with Xie Chi, they naturally wouldn't object. After all, it was a safety issue with her. It's nothing to worry about.
Xie Chi also said to him: "Aren't you too curious about this? This is not a good thing. If you are not careful, you will bump into it yourself."
"I was very curious about this aspect, otherwise I wouldn't watch the live broadcast. Later, something like this happened around me, so..." I'm even more curious.
Sun Wen is the kind of person who is very curious. The other rich second generation usually watch live broadcasts to watch beautiful girls and sisters, singing and dancing, and no matter how bad they are to play games, he likes to watch those supernatural adventures. Ah or something.
His style of painting can be seen from his personal hobbies.
Xie Chi glanced at him: "You have no talent, don't think about it."
Sun Wen: …
"I'm just curious..."
Although he had seen a lot about his sister last time, he had never seen a ghost with his own eyes, so it was inevitable that he was a little regretful.
"You want to go to hell." Xie Chi said vaguely, "There is always a chance."
Sun Wen didn't know why, but he subconsciously shivered after listening.
Meng Shu offered to keep a vigil, and handed it over to Xie Chilai during the day. In the second half of the night, Tuanzi would also help watch it for a while. All of them stayed in the girl's apartment.
The girl lived in the bedroom, and the rest of them stayed in the living room. The living room was quite spacious, with a large sofa that could be used as a bed.
Xie Chi and Tuan slept here.
Sun Wen and his friends, including Meng Shu, all built the floor, and looked so desolate.
Especially Sun Wen and his friends, both of whom are second-generation rich, with more than one property under their names, when have they ever had a floor shop? Can only sleep in the corner of the kind.
Fortunately, there is air conditioning in the living room, otherwise the two of them may be in a worse state.
Xie Chi slept with the dumplings in her arms at night. The dumplings were small and nestled in her arms. Although the body was a bit cold, it was not uncomfortable because of the air conditioner.
Because the sofa bed is quite wide and soft and comfortable, it is not uncomfortable to sleep. It was probably late at night on the third day. When Xie Chi was sleeping just right, he was suddenly poked.
She slowly opened her eyes, and she was still a little confused. She squinted, and Meng Shu woke her up. Meng Shu didn't dare to speak, and made a mouth shape: Look.
Xie Chi followed his gaze to the place where the paper figurines were placed in the center of the living room. The paper figurines had undergone great changes. It was not so obvious during the day, but at night, it made people feel a little uncomfortable.
Xie Chi saw the paper figurine that Meng Shu cut out of a piece of white paper with his own eyes. Although the cut was very delicate, the paper figurine was a paper figurine and could still be recognized at a glance.
But at this moment, the feeling of the paper man lying on the ground has changed completely. The paper on his body even gave people a soft feeling, almost as soft as the skin.
The facial features are also slowly changing, and they tend to be more and more living.
If someone got up at night to go to the toilet, at a glance, they might really think that they were lying there alone.
This paper figure is slowly changing in a very strange direction, getting closer and closer to the appearance of a human.
Meng Shu still didn't say a word, he stared at the paper figurine lying on the ground tightly, and said silently: Just now, I seemed to see the paper figurine's eyes and moved.
