She took out the "Skeleton Fantasy" painted by the short man from my hand and said to the young woman: "Sister, just take a look at it. We just want to ask if anyone has had this kind of tattoo." Pattern tattoo?”
The young woman glanced at the pattern in Lang Ni's hand, curled her lips and said, "What a crappy pattern, no, no customer in our shop has ever had a tattoo like this."
Although I don’t know whether what the young woman said is true or false, but what they said has reached this point, if we don’t leave, there is no point in staying.
I winked at Lang Ni and Bai Ze, and after leaving the tattoo shop, I sighed: "Oh, it seems things are not as simple as we thought."
Bai Ze scratched his scalp and said, "This is indeed the case. I guess the store did this because he was afraid of getting into unnecessary trouble."
However, Lang Ni said: "I mean, you two are not big men. Why do you become dejected and sigh when you encounter such a little setback? Don't forget, we just asked one tattoo shop now, let's ask about other tattoo shops. , it’s impossible for all stores to have this attitude.”
I nodded and said, "Lang Ni, how about this? Next, you take the lead, and Bai Ze and I will follow behind. You women are easy to talk to."
Lonnie nodded in agreement, and then Lonnie took the lead. After that, we entered a tattoo shop.
This shop was opened by a young man. After Lonnie explained her purpose, the young man looked at the pattern in Lonnie's hand and shook his head: "We don't have tattoos with such weird patterns in our shop."
Did you hear that? We walked out of the store disappointed and searched the streets again. However, after asking a few stores, we found that most shopkeepers were very taboo about this matter. Some simply shook their heads as an answer and asked again. They stopped talking.
Finally, we came to a tattoo shop where the tattoo artist was a middle-aged woman.
After hearing our explanation of the situation, the middle-aged woman took a look at the pattern in Lang Ni's hand and was surprised.
She said in surprise: "With such a weird pattern and tattoos, aren't you afraid of death?"
I was surprised to hear her say such a thing, so I asked her what was going on.
This middle-aged woman was very enthusiastic. She explained to me: "This weird pattern looks like Guan Gong with his eyes open. It is a big taboo to have it tattooed on the body. I guess no one would dare to get this kind of pattern tattooed, right?"
I don’t know much about tattoos and taboos. I remembered that Lang Ni had said the same thing just now, so I asked the middle-aged woman what the taboos about this kind of pattern were.
The middle-aged woman told us about it, and through her words, I finally understood what was going on.
According to her, tattooing is very particular. Before getting a tattoo, it is best to choose a pattern that suits you according to your five elements.
This kind of suitability, to put it bluntly, means choosing a pattern that is mutually reinforcing and incompatible with oneself.
Among the orthodox tattoos, the two most difficult to get are the designs of Guan Gong and the evil dragon.
And the "Skeleton Fantasy Picture" we are holding is similar to the existence of Guan Gong and the evil dragon.
The middle-aged woman said that the two patterns of Guan Gong and Evil Dragon are relatively evil and cannot be carried by ordinary people.
The so-called unbearable means that after these two patterns are tattooed, there will be a conflict in life. Once you get these two patterns, not only will you not be able to bring good luck, but you may also be unlucky. What’s more serious, you will also suffer. There will be a bloody disaster.
We were all shocked to hear her say this.
I didn’t expect that a tattoo requires so much attention.
"Thank you, eldest sister, for letting us know so many things we didn't know before."
The middle-aged woman smiled: "Brother, you are too polite. Everyone encounters difficulties when they go out. Even if I say so much, I can't help you."
"No, no, we have benefited a lot from what you said. Thank you again."
After saying the polite words, when we were about to leave, the middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment and then stopped us.
"Little brother, if you really want to ask about a tattoo shop with your kind of pattern, ordinary tattoo shops won't work. You need to find a specialized shop."
I was surprised and said: "Sister, do you need a special shop to tattoo this kind of pattern?"
The middle-aged woman smiled and said: "Of course, I didn't say it just now. Generally, we don't tattoo this kind of pattern. Not only do we not tattoo, we also dissuade customers."
I asked her urgently: "Then, where is the place where such evil patterns are specially tattooed?"
The middle-aged woman said: "There is a big guy nearby. He has a strong character and specializes in getting tattoos with this pattern. You should go to his place and have a look."
I didn't expect that a middle-aged woman would know about such a place. I couldn't help but be overjoyed and asked her about the place that specializes in tattooing such evil patterns.
The middle-aged woman pointed to the south: "About six or seven miles away from here, there is Bashui Township. When you get there, find a boss named Lin Xiaoqi. He specializes in making this kind of pattern. You can go there and ask. "
After receiving this news, I thanked the middle-aged woman in front of me profusely and walked along the southern road to Bashui Township.
After arriving, I saw that this was a village with a large area. The next step was how to find Lin Xiaoqi.
After asking an old man sunbathing on the roadside, he gave us directions.
"Go straight along the street, about a mile away. There is Lin Xiaoqi Tattoo Parlor in Daonan. This shop is named after the owner."
After expressing our gratitude to the old man, we continued walking eastward along this east-west street.
After walking for more than a mile, I looked around and saw the signboard of a shop with six characters written on it: Lin Xiaoqi Tattoo Parlor.
I nodded and said, "It seems this is it. Let's go in and take a look."
We went directly into the store. When we came in, we found that the store was not busy. There was a man lying on his back on the lounge chair facing the door. This man was about thirty-six or seventeen years old. He had his eyes closed and was snoring slightly.
Bai Ze looked at me, and we looked at each other.
There is only one person in this tattoo shop, and this person is definitely Lin Xiaoqi.
"Who are you and why have you come to me?"
A slightly hoarse question came from the person on the recliner who had woken up.
Hearing his inquiry, I quickly said: "Excuse me, master, are you Lin Xiaoqi, the big boss in the tattoo industry?"
When the other party heard my inquiry, his face was cold: "I can't talk to you, boss. I am Lin Xiaoqi."
We were all very happy to hear that he was Lin Xiaoqi.
I quickly explained my purpose: "Master Lin, look at this pattern. Has anyone ever gotten a tattoo with this pattern?"
After hearing what I said, Lin Xiaoqi looked ugly. After he glanced at the pattern reluctantly, his eyelids drooped.
