Chen Tong's wooden box looks ordinary.
The things inside were unremarkable. The top layer contained a few pairs of bowls and chopsticks and various bottles and jars.
In the middle were pens, inks, papers, inkstones, and some scattered daily necessities. As for the bottom layer, they were mainly his clothes.
Chen Tong first took out two small bottles and a small bowl from the upper layer, then took out a pen and inkstone and a piece of gavel from the middle layer, and then took out a cut paper figure from the lower layer.
Judging from the appearance of the paper man, he should be a general, wearing armor and holding a spear in his hand, looking majestic.
Chen Tong arranged these things on the box one by one.
Then he looked up at Lu Jing and Xia Huai and said, "There are two of you, can I also find a helper?"
"Please."
Lu Jing said cheerfully.
So Chen Tong looked around and said to the girl singing Beijing lyrics, "Please help Miss Xiaolian to grind the ink for me."
"me?"
Xiaolian was a little surprised, but she stood up after hearing this, walked up to Chen Tong, got some water into the inkstone, then picked up the ink ingot, and was about to start grinding the ink, when she heard Chen Tong say again.
"Wait a minute while I add some fairy powder."
As he spoke, he opened the two vials, poured some powder into the inkstone, and then asked Xiaolian to continue grinding the ink.
As Xiaolian turned her wrist, the water in the inkstone began to change color.
However, it does not turn into the black color of ordinary ink, but has a golden luster, which looks very magical.
Everyone couldn't help but marveled when they saw this.
And the monkey-playing old man Sanle shouted directly, "Hey, could this really be a fairy water?"
Chen Tong said to Xiaolian, "That's it."
So Xiaolian put down the ink stick and returned to her position again.
Chen Tong grabbed the brush, dipped it in the golden juice in the inkstone, and then carefully touched the paper man's eyes.
But when he put down the pen, the paper man remained motionless.
Although people in the cabin had seen this trick many times, they still couldn't help scratching their heads when they saw this scene.
"What, but the fairy water has lost its effect?"
"Don't worry, I haven't cast the spell yet."
Chen Tong shook his head as he spoke, and then muttered something in his mouth, "The air of nothingness, the common man is close to the Tao, the knowledge of the true spirit, the foundation of creation, the finishing touch, the craftsmanship of Zhou Tian, the Supreme Immortal Lord, urgent as a law ~ an edict!"
After saying that, he lowered his head and blew another breath on the paper man.
As a result, the paper man still didn't move. It seemed that there was someone in the sky who didn't want to give Chen Tong face.
So Chen Tong became anxious, picked up the gavel on the side, slapped it hard, and shouted, "You lazy boy, why don't you get up!"
And when he finished saying this, a miracle finally happened.
I saw the paper man standing up from his wooden box!
Then he kicked off his legs and jumped onto a porcelain bowl fastened to the wooden box. He held up the spear in his hand and stabbed left and right, which seemed to be similar.
When he was done, he turned around and struck a pose, then his body softened and he slipped off the bowl again.
Chen Tong, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed the paper man in his hand.
The cabin suddenly burst into cheers and cheers.
And the old man Sanle who performed the monkey trick even made the monkey on his shoulder do somersaults, and while doing so, he said, "As expected of Chen Chen, this is an eye-opening trick!"
Chen Tong also had a look of satisfaction on his face and looked at Lu Jing and Xia Huai.
As a result, the two of them were seen eating melon seeds, just like the guests of Vasili who came to see his performance.
When Lu Jing saw him looking at him, he even gave a thumbs up and said, "I do have a hand."
"It's your turn." Chen Tong's face looked a little ugly.
The relaxed postures of Lu Jing and Xia Huai made him feel slighted.
"No, I can do it alone."
Lu Jing's words made Chen Tong's already ugly face become even more gloomy.
He had just talked about the two people on the other side, so he also called Xiao Lian to help. Although it was just to show off, he was defeated by Lu Jing in a one-on-one backhand.
This also made Chen Tong feel like he was being tricked by Lu Jing again, and he said coldly, "Humph, you're being a little clever. I want to see how much real ability you have."
Lu Jing smiled and did not argue. He just said to Chen Tong, "Can you lend me a piece of paper? You can also lend me some scissors."
Chen Tong was startled when he heard this, "What do you want to do?"
"Paper cutter."
"Cut now?"
"Cut it now." Lu Ding nodded.
At this time, everyone else in the cabin was also stunned.
This... this is too bold for an expert.
Although Chen Tong said that his bottle was filled with fairy powder, he recited the magic spell after dotting his eyes, and when he was pushed into a hurry, he had a little friction with the paper man and scolded the other person, which can be said to be a show of force.
But these are actually just for performance purposes, tactics used to increase the sense of mystery and divert attention. They may be able to frighten the lay viewers, but they are all well aware of this.
It is almost a consensus in this industry that a juggler's tricks rely half on technique and usually on props.
When Lu Jing came to Chen Tong to ask for scissors and paper, he gave up half of the props. So how powerful is his technique?
Or are they really, as Chen Tong said, just bluffing liars?
"I don't lend out my things." Chen Tong shook his head and said in a strong tone.
Lu Jing did not force himself, and turned to the others, "Then who can lend it to me?"
"Use my scissors. I have one because I usually cut my own clothes." Xiaolian said.
"I have the paper, can I give birth to it?" Then a chess waiter asked.
He was also curious about how Lu Jing's trick was going to change.
"sure."
Lu Jing was really not picky. After getting the scissors and rice paper, he glanced at them casually, and then used his hands to perform the most advanced paper-cutting technique.
After finishing the work, I didn’t hesitate, I cut directly and started cutting.
He couldn't cut out a lifelike paper man like Chen Tong. He just made a few random cuts and could barely make out the human shape.
It has a head and legs, plus a body and two arms, so it can move in as many directions as possible.
However, the little paper man, so scrawled that it was impossible to stand it, started running after landing. He first circled the scene twice, and then ran towards the outside of the cabin.
Taking advantage of the moment when everyone was distracted, he disappeared in a flash.
Including Chen Tong, everyone in the cabin was dumbfounded.
For a full quarter of an hour, no one spoke, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After a while, Lu Jing clasped his fists and said, "You're showing off your shame. There's nothing else to do, so my wife and I will go and rest first."
Mr. Bai just woke up from a dream and said hurriedly, "I...I will take you to your room. There happens to be an empty room on the ship."
