"Thanks to the nightmare that is still on me, it gave me a nightmare." Wang Qiyi's four legs bounced quickly, and he had time to explain in detail, "In the dream, the paper puppet touched the backyard, causing an explosion and The fire immediately woke me up!"
As they talked softly, they chased further and further away. No sound could be heard from the top of the mountain, only the sound of the night wind blowing through the forest.
The paper puppet in front walked faster and faster, and eventually it got down on all fours and started running like an animal. From its impatient movements, you can feel the excitement and urgency of its owner.
Probably because they thought it was easy to get the worms, they wanted to evacuate as quickly as possible.
In order not to get lost, the two of them also started running. The rugged mountain road was a bit difficult for the bastard. Wang Qiyi started to breathe heavily before running far, and he was not in the mood to continue chatting.
"It's right in front, hold on." Qingfeng was very considerate of him. As a lazy and slow bastard in the wishing pool, his endurance could not last long when he was running at a fast speed. He pointed ahead without losing breath while chasing. Said: "In about five hundred meters, we can reach the parking lot halfway up the mountain."
Five hundred meters in a straight line is definitely not the same concept as five hundred meters on a rugged mountain road.
Wang Qiyi, who did not have extensive mountain climbing experience, did not understand it at all, and although it was downhill, it was not very steep. He could not shrink back into his shell and climb down.
Finally, when he was almost exhausted from climbing, he saw from a distance a parking lot that was even quieter and had a wide view under the blue moonlight.
The cars lay neatly there, looking like a bunch of iron beetles of different colors and sizes from the top down.
"Ooo!"
Several long roars suddenly sounded from the branches above his head. Wang Qiyi was so frightened that he was unprepared. He looked up and saw two small, monkey-like black shadows flashing past the treetops.
"Well, we were discovered." Qingfeng was still unhurried, and his voice seemed to be a little relaxed and joking.
Sure enough, almost at the same time as the roar sounded, the sound of a car engine starting suddenly came from the huge parking lot.
"Oops, he wants to run away!" Wang Qiyi didn't care that his legs were tired and the air in his lungs seemed to be on fire. The prey he had been chasing for so long actually wanted to drive away. When his mind became hot, he shrank into the bastard's shell and thought Speed up and roll over.
Qingfeng stretched out his hand to stop him and chuckled: "Don't worry, he can't run away. I just wanted to scare the snake away. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to find the suspect from so many tourists' cars."
While talking, a white SUV rushed out from the corner.
"Creak~" The speed of the car was so fast that the wheels almost drifted away with dust and screeching brakes, and it hit the lift pole in the parking lot and sped away, leaving behind billows of dust.
Behind the car, three black figures, one large, two small, ran faster. Under the bright moonlight, Wang Qiyi could clearly see that when the vehicle turned, they successfully climbed onto the roof and jumped into the car through the sunroof.
The next second the mountain blocked the view, leaving only the distant roar of cars in the middle of the night.
"Captain, his license plate number is blocked!" Wang Qiyi scratched his paws anxiously. The three worms he finally caught were released just like that?
Qingfeng looked at him with bright eyes and couldn't help but smile, "Qiyi, see clearly."
He stretched out his right hand and put it in front of him, as if placing it on an invisible piece of glass.
Wang Qiyi was confused, and the next second he saw cracks appearing in the air near the captain's right palm!
"Is this going to... break the void?!" His mind suddenly became hot, and he thought of a possibility - the captain has the ability to tear apart space, and maybe the space jumps to the puppet master's car in the next second!
I'm the best! This skill is great!
"You can put your hands up and feel it." Qingfeng heard the four words he shouted excitedly and couldn't laugh or cry. "Don't always listen to the nonsense of those tourists. This is reality, not a novel about cultivating immortals."
Wang Qiyi's cheeks felt hot, knowing that he had guessed wrong, and he quickly stretched out his paw to touch it.
As a result, as soon as the tip of the claw came into contact with the air that was beginning to crack, cold sweat broke out on the turtle's shell - there was really a layer of glass in front of him!
"Bang bang!"
I patted it twice curiously, and the air in the cracks even made a sound of slapping the glass window.
The parking lot that was originally seen in the distance has now become a flat surface, like a picture printed on the glass.
"This is... fake?!"
"Yes, it's all fake."
As soon as Qingfeng finished speaking, the cracks in the "glass" became larger and larger, and finally shattered with a muffled "bang" sound.
In an instant, all the scenery around him began to shatter. Wang Qiyi craned his neck and stared with wide eyes in surprise. The scene gradually changed and finally turned into what it looked like in the captain's bedroom.
The surroundings were quiet. The captain sat cross-legged on the bed and looked at himself lying on the ground with a smile.
The clear black and white phoenix eyes show a light blue, and the furry black and white stripes on the smooth forehead are hidden in the skin.
"Let's go and show you what the paper puppet looks like up close." Qingfeng stood up and lowered his voice to remind: "Keep your voice down so as not to wake others up."
When I opened the door and came out, it was quiet in the courtyard.
There were no explosions or flames shooting into the sky, and he didn't even see the paper puppet.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Wang Qiyi realized something was wrong.
With the speed at which the paper puppet climbed over the wall, and the time it took to shuttle through the courtyard, he was running very fast at that time. How could it be possible that he had just woken up the captain and it followed him?
So from the moment he woke up the captain and he noticed something abnormal, everything that happened around him was fake!
"It's an illusion, one of my major abilities." Qingfeng explained patiently: "Actually, the moment you woke me up, I sensed the danger and pulled you both into the illusion at the same time. Now that you're awake, it's because of us Instead of continuing to pursue him, I took the initiative to break the barrier of the illusion. The puppet master was still immersed in the illusion I created, thinking he had succeeded and escaped successfully."
As he spoke, he opened the courtyard door and walked out first.
Wang Qiyi followed and climbed over, and found that the paper puppet had indeed just climbed over the Taoist wall and had walked a few steps in the courtyard. At this time, it was standing in a daze, covered with a layer of blue gauze by the moonlight.
"Here, this is the elementary paper puppet." Qingfeng stepped forward, took a look, and greeted: "Its owner fell into the illusion and lost the ability to control it, so there is no need to be afraid. It has no lethality now that it loses control."
Only then did he dare to get closer and take a closer look.
The paper puppet standing motionless in the yard is actually a paper puppet as tall as a person!
It looks worse than the craftsmanship of the funeral shop owner in my previous life. It is a crude frame put together, with only a simple head, body and limbs. The baggy clothes he saw before were just a set of clothes and pants made of paper. The bright red and green ones looked very perfunctory.
The features on the face are highlighted with bright red paint, and the crudely made paper sticks reveal a strong and strange style of painting under the moonlight.
"Although the craftsmanship is rough, the materials used for paper puppets are actually very particular. If it is under control, it will be very powerful in close combat, and ordinary weapons will not cause much damage at all. Moreover, these papers are fireproof and waterproof. , burning fire and pouring water on it won’t do much.”
Qingfeng pointed to the facial features painted on the face of the paper puppet and gave a live lesson, "This is a pigment made of rooster blood and special materials, commonly known as the finishing touch. It is said that the key to the puppet master's control of the paper puppet lies in its eyes, without dots." A paper puppet with eyes can't establish a long-lasting connection, and it can only be driven easily if its eyes are clicked."
