Chapter 801 Grease

I reached out and touched the cage. This unknown grease was spread in almost every corner of the cage.

I suddenly remembered something - Zhenwa.

Many years ago, this kind of acrobatics flourished everywhere, but it has long disappeared today.

The reason for the disappearance is also very simple - it is so cruel that it is outrageous.

The so-called baby is a child in a jar.

In terms of form, she is somewhat similar to the Porcelain Vase Girl, but the difference is that the Porcelain Vase Girl relies on external force to cripple a person and stuffs her into a vase. The principle is similar to that of binding feet.

In comparison, Zhenwa is cruel.

It involves smearing the child's body with grease and baking it in a pot. Oil needs to be poured into the pot every three days. The whole process takes about two months.

When the time comes, most of the child's skin and flesh have merged into one body.

The cruel thing about Zhenwa is that her body cannot move, but her hands and feet are intact.

Only in this way can various programs be performed on stage.

Because I had been selling crafts on the street with my master before, and we were in contact with people from all walks of life. When we usually get together to talk about mountains, we always talk about these things.

The key point is that in order to make the limbs more flexible, grease needs to be replenished every day to provide lubrication.

And the oil they use is from spawning wax fish.

Xiaomei also said just now that the oil on it has a strong fishy smell, which is consistent with the characteristics of wax fish.

This group of people really opened my eyes. First they hid poison in their mouths, then they tied sulfuric acid bottles to their bodies, and now they may be using long-lost secret skills.

I really don’t know what surprises it will give me.

This detail is tantamount to allowing us to more accurately locate the movements of the mysterious man.

Tao Zi also narrowed the scope according to my wishes.

No matter what kind of pagan you are, if you are a living person, you must eat.

They are a group of people who eat horse chews, and every move is worth money.

So, they must need money.

People in Taozi should pay more attention to the group of performers on the roadside, and they might be able to find clues.

However, one day passed and the news came that no trace of the mysterious man was found in the entire Monan.

This result made the three of us fall into silence.

Tao Zi said firmly: "I just asked Lao Huang. Dozens of people in Yueming Tower are active on the street. He hired some more people, adding up to at least several hundred people."

"He..." Taozi hesitated: "Will he leave Monan?"

I barely hesitated and blurted out: "No way, he wants to crush me to ashes now and will never leave."

While we were worrying about this, the phone in my pocket suddenly rang.

I took it out and saw that it was Xia Min.

The excitement spread to my ears along the phone. Xia Min told me that she had returned to Monan.

I already told her the news of catching the mysterious man yesterday. We all know that catching the mysterious man means solving all the mysteries.

But now, all that was waiting for her was an empty cage.

I didn't know how to explain this disparity between joy and sorrow to her.

After struggling for a while, I sent her the location of the abandoned building without saying much on the phone.

When Xia Min arrived, she looked around in astonishment, but without saying any nonsense, she went straight to the point and asked.

She's already here, I definitely can't hide it.

Simply, I confessed the whole story.

For a moment, Xia Min seemed to have been cast a restraining spell. After a while, her eyelashes trembled slightly.

Shock and disappointment flashed through her eyes at the same time, and in an instant, she lowered her head again.

The atmosphere was so solid that it made people feel a little panicked, and it was Xia Tian who moved to speak.

"You don't have to blame yourself, I don't blame you."

When Xia Min raised her head again, her eyes had returned to normal: "You have helped me shorten the time. Without you, I don't know how to find the year of the monkey, the horse and the moon."

"At least, the information I collected in the past year is far less than what you have provided me these days."

Indeed, I also admit that there are a series of external factors.

But the more she said this, the more guilty I felt: "Just keep your heart in your heart and promise you something, and I will make it come true."

"I believe you."

I looked behind Xia Min: "Your husband's brother..."

"I was afraid something would go wrong on the road, so I sent him home."
