Cui Youyou has his own opinions on these questions that Qin Shaoyou is confused about.
"I don't know if the people sent by Mianyuan County to deliver the letter encountered any accidents. But the paper crane talisman they sent must have been interfered with and lost its way. It is not impossible that it was even captured and destroyed using magic. "
Qin Shaoyou raised his eyebrows slightly: "So sure?"
"Of course, this kind of thing has never happened before."
There was a hint of disgust in Cui Youying's tone.
"So, things like talismans are still not as reliable as magic. Once you practice your spells, you will be able to detect them immediately even if you encounter interference or obstacles. Unlike talismans, it doesn't matter how or when they disappeared. have no idea."
When Qin Shaoyou heard this, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes. That was to give Brother Cui face, so he didn't complain to his face.
Judging from Senior Brother Cui's sour tone, one could tell that it was because he couldn't draw or use talismans that he said such words.
If he can draw and use talismans, and they don't explode when he touches them, then what he is complaining about now must be that the talismans used by the people in Mianyuan County are not good, not that there is anything wrong with the talismans.
Because he knew Cui Youguil's thoughts, Qin Shaoyou did not argue with him, but just said: "Then why the paper crane talisman sent back by Xiucai and Lao Sun was not disturbed or destroyed?"
"Because the paper crane talisman they used is a new product you got from my junior brother Tu at the last time you went to Jade Emperor Temple."
Although Cui Yougui couldn't use the talisman, he stood up and observed it after Qin Shaoyou got back the new paper crane talisman.
With his eyesight, he could naturally see that the paper crane symbols drawn by Junior Brother Tu were very different from those drawn by others.
"Although I have not used these new talismans, I can see that they have many improvements and enhancements compared to ordinary paper crane talismans. The interference and capture spells against ordinary paper crane talismans are different from these The improved paper crane talisman may not be effective."
"So that's it."
Qin Shaoyou nodded slightly.
At Jade Emperor Temple, he not only got a batch of paper crane talismans from Su Jianqing, but also asked for another batch from Brother Tu's talisman painting room.
The paper crane talisman given by Su Jianqing had a faint milk fragrance, so he kept it for his own use. The paper crane talisman given to Zhu Xiucai and Sun Xianzong were both painted by Senior Brother Tu.
Unexpectedly, it was given correctly.
What’s more, I didn’t expect that the paper crane talisman painted by Brother Tu was actually an upgraded version 2.0.
Hmm... No, this is not version 2.0 yet. After all, it is just an improvement in 'signal strength' and 'security'. The picture and image transmission function has not yet been loaded successfully, so it can only be considered version 1.10.
But no matter what, this upgraded paper crane talisman is indeed much stronger than the old version in actual use.
And this also made Qin Shaoyou look forward to Brother Tu's further improvement of the Paper Crane Talisman.
I hope that the day when pictures and images can be transmitted using paper crane symbols will come soon.
As they spoke, the team continued to move forward.
After passing through a dry forest, everyone saw the distant county town in the distance.
"It's finally here."
An Mutong raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The weather in Mianyuan County was uncomfortably hot, and his mouth had even become dry and cracked.
He felt thirsty in his throat, so he picked up the kettle and shook it. There was still about half a kettle of water in it.
Even so, An Mutong didn't dare to drink more, he just took a sip in his mouth to moisten his throat.
Cui Yougui made a list on horseback.
He wrote down all the utensils and materials he needed to use for his method of praying for rain. Fortunately, after arriving in Mianyuan County, he asked Qin Shaoyou and An Mutong to help him get these things so that he could try to pray for rain as soon as possible and relieve the pain. Disaster in Mianyuan County.
The children sitting on the carriage became quiet after seeing the distant county town.
Each face showed complex expressions mixed with nervousness, worry, excitement and expectation.
Qin Shaoyou discovered this situation keenly.
He knew that these children were timid in their hometown.
Although they had not been away from home for a long time, their experience was extraordinary.
Now that they have finally regained their human form and are about to return home, I don’t know what their parents and relatives will think of them and what kind of reaction they will have, so while I am looking forward to being reunited with my family, I am also very nervous and scared.
Qin Shaoyou smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, Zhu Xiaoqi has sent someone to notify your parents before. According to him, your parents were very excited when they learned that you were still alive, and they wanted to leave to find you right away. .I believe your parents will be very happy after you go home."
The children really felt at ease after listening to his words.
But Qin Shaoyou suddenly changed the subject and said, "But you must cherish this time, because it will not last a few days."
The children were stunned and asked in confusion: "Why?"
Qin Shaoyou laughed and joked: "Because after a few days, your parents will find that you are still as naughty as before, and then they will start to annoy you, or even beat and scold you."
The children thought for a moment that such a situation might really happen, and they all started laughing.
With this smile, the little worry and tension in their hearts disappeared.
However, there are also children who confidently say, "I won't annoy my parents because I'm sensible and grown up."
While Qin Shaoyou was joking with the children, a team came out of a village ahead, playing music.
Everyone's attention was immediately attracted.
This is a team welcoming a bride, and at the front is a group of musicians playing gongs, drums and suonas.
Behind them were a few people holding "Welcoming the Marriage" signs, and behind them was a certain sedan chair.
Next to the sedan, there was a person dressed as a matchmaker.
But the strange thing is that the groom was not seen in the wedding team.
The night watchmen under Qin Shaoyou were also discussing this matter:
"We actually met a marriage team. It seems that we are quite lucky. When we enter the city later, I will definitely go shopping. Maybe I can win the big prize."
"Hey, why don't we see the groom in the team?"
"Yes, where is the groom? He didn't even go to the wedding in person? What about the bridal chamber?"
"In my opinion, there is probably something wrong with the groom. Maybe he is seriously ill and bedridden. His family has found a bride to celebrate the wedding."
"That makes sense. If it weren't for the sake of happiness, who would get married during a drought like this? The groom's official hasn't even shown up yet."
"Others can get married even if they are bedridden, but we are still single and alive. Damn it, the more I think about it, the more angry I get."
While she was talking, the wedding team had already arrived in front of her.
The night watchmen still gave the wedding team a bit of humiliation, and they all closed their mouths, reined their horses to the side of the road, and got out of the way.
Seeing this scene, the people in the wedding team nodded and bowed with smiles and thanked the night watchmen.
The suona player worked hard to raise the sound a few degrees, causing several night watchmen to sigh softly: "This suona is so powerful, it can play from birth to death, and everything big or small is inseparable from it." .”
Qin Shaoyou didn't think about this.
His eyes were fixed on the sedan chair.
This is a hard-clothed sedan chair with a wooden structure all over. It is shaped like a pagoda with four square corners and canopies. It is all red and has some festive and auspicious patterns painted on the sedan body.
But I don't know if the craftsman's skills are not up to par, or what happened, but this sedan chair feels more like a big coffin to Qin Shaoyou.
The red paint painted on the sedan chair is not bright enough, and it gives off a dark red and eerie feeling, like dried human blood...
Through the gap in the sedan chair, Qin Shaoyou saw the bride sitting in the sedan chair.
Although she was wearing a red hijab and could not see her face clearly, Qin Shaoyou still saw that she was unwilling.
If you are really rushing to get married, it is normal for the bride to be reluctant.
But what really made Qin Shaoyou feel something was wrong was that at this moment, he had the idea of eating it!
I just don’t know who he is heading towards with this desire to eat.
Is it the bride sitting in the sedan chair?
Or is it this sedan chair with a strange aura?
Or maybe someone in the wedding party?
Or the groom who never showed up?
