The time came in a moment, and early the next morning, they had already split up.
The light box was formed, the cage was moved, and the shadow puppet show team was already in place. In order to prevent Bannu from breaking out of the chains and hurting others, Banshu decided to wake her up in the main hall of the stone building. Everyone else was guarding outside the main hall to prevent accidents.
Yue Guanchao and the others followed Ban Shu into the hall and approached Ban Nu. After a few days of feeding with flesh and blood, Ban Nu's already emaciated state gradually became normal. He still looked a little thin, but at least he had returned to his human form, ignoring the sharp teeth and dark eyes. Tongren looks like a slightly thin woman.
"ha!!"
When Ban Nu saw so many people approaching, his eyes instantly became frightened. He licked his tongue and shook the chains desperately, as if he was coming to devour the living people.
"Let's go, send my sister to the cage!"
After Ban Shu gave the order, they picked up the numbing needles, puffed up their mouths and blew it on Ban Shu. Not long after Ban Shu felt the pain, his eyes immediately became sleepy. Very difficult.
This kind of hemp powder will not kill anyone, it will only make her drowsy. After Ban Nu's eyes were also distracted, they opened Ban Nu's chains, put her into the cage again, and then chained her Her wrists and ankles are fixed to the cage, and the outer chains are controlled by a craftsman, who can restrict her movements at any time.
After all this was done, the effects of the medicine on Ban Shu's body had worn off. After he was completely awake, he returned to his animalistic appearance, dragging the chain back and forth in the cage, just like a monkey holding on to the cage, with a vigilant face and fangs grinning. It's horror.
"can we start?"
Ban Shu looked at Song Siyuan, and she nodded to everyone: "The musical instrument team is already in place. We just need to wait for the class leader's order before we can start."
"good."
After Ban Shu nodded, Song Siyuan clapped her hands, and all the craftsmen around them exited the hall. Even Sun Daqiao and Tan Yanqiu all exited. Except for the musical instrument troupe that must be present, only Ban Shu, Yue Guanchao, Song Siyuan, and Xu Xiake were left in the hall. , and several craftsmen who control Bannu's chains.
After everyone dispersed, the hall door closed with a bang. This place was originally a stone building embedded in the mountain. Not much light came in. As the hall door closed, the hall became a little darker, and it seemed like the setting sun in broad daylight. At dusk, light shines into the room through the window, casting a grid of light spots.
"It's not dark enough!"
Song Siyuan looked around and said.
"Isn't it dark enough? This is the least amount of light coming in. If it gets any darker, there will be no light at all."
Yue Guanchao said.
Song Siyuan snapped her fingers at them: "You're right, what I want is that there is no light in the stone room, only the light from the shadow puppet light box is left. We must be completely hidden in the darkness, otherwise, Ban Nu will only be smelled by the smell of living people." affected, becoming restless.”
"I just discovered that Ban Nu is very sensitive to light. Probably, her eyes cannot see light. Being immersed in a dark environment is a completely safe state for her."
Ban Shu nodded: "Sister, I am indeed afraid of light. Otherwise, we wouldn't have prepared the stone chamber. I remember that when this stone chamber was built, the windows could be completely closed with door panels. I asked them to completely seal the windows." stand up."
Ban Shu stood in front of the window sill and winked at the craftsmen outside.
After muttering a few words, these God-pressing craftsmen picked up the wooden boards outside the window and covered all the windows. As the windows were covered, the light in the hall continued to decrease until the last window was covered from the outside, and the room sank into darkness. There is no more light in the night.
In the darkness, Song Siyuan looked at Ban Nu through the opening of the shadow puppet light box. After the dazzling light disappeared, Ban Nu's eyes began to open slowly. The green pupils were like cat eyes, which were particularly clear in the dark environment.
Ban Shu clapped his hands a few times, and the originally dark light box was instantly lit up by the musical instrument team. The dim yellow light shone on the white cloth on all sides, making the cloth look like gold spilled, full of golden heat.
Since the room was dark, only the light from the light box illuminated the room. This light completely illuminated the cage, forming the de facto focus of the room and attracting everyone's attention.
Ban Shu's eyes had already adapted to the darkness. After the shadow puppet light box illuminated her, she was slightly irritable by the light and crawled around in the cage.
As the first gong sounded, the musical instrument team began to play musical instruments. The strings of silk and bamboo gradually became clearer with the beating of bangs and drums. It was like floods pouring through the room, and shadow puppet scenes began to appear on the shadow puppet light box.
In the picture, a large river begins to appear. On the river beach where the rivers meet, you can see densely populated cities and mansions. Various industries are prosperous and bustling in the county. Fishing boats are racing and fishing is busy in the suburbs. On the ridges further away, farmers hold boats. Cows planting rice, chatting in the fields, everything is like a Peach Blossom Spring, a paradise on earth scene.
After a few moments, the sky began to turn into darkness, and night in Wushan came!
The tides changed during the day and night, and the originally calm river began to stir up waves. It can be seen that many bandits and bandits gathered on the boat to rush to Wushan County. On the banks of the moat, the brave young people from Wushan County each held torches and firearms to kill those The bandits who crossed the river were beaten to death by the riverside, and their corpses floated on the river.
In a remote direction on the bank of the moat, a young man held the weeds in the river and drifted with the current. Due to his personal weakness, his physical strength had been exhausted in the turbulent river. He was almost drowned as he held the weeds and was tossed up and down by the waves.
The young man was lucky. When he was drowning, a butcher was hunting hogweed by the river late at night. When he saw the grass floating on the shore, he immediately fished it out with a rope, and the young man escaped. After a disaster, he was fished out to the river bank by the butcher.
Afterwards, the young man woke up from the pigsty, and before the butcher got up, he cut grass to feed the pigs, climbed over the wall and fled into the mountains. The young man was injured and hungry, and finally fell to Chaoyun Villa. Fortunately, he was Chaoyun Villa is rescued by the goddess Bannu, and the fate of the two begins...
The pictures flow and the shadow puppets are vivid.
These shadow puppet plays are all based on Ban Shu's oral narrations and letters. From the time when Sun Tianqi was washed away by the river to Wushan, until Sun Tianqi left Wushan, all the scenes, pictures, and events were gathered into these shadow puppet plays, which is equivalent to the transformation of Bannu and Sun Tianqi's life. The story was told in every detail.
In the picture, except for the human face, there are no facial features. As long as you look at their movements, you will know who they are and what they mean.
"Is this useful?"
Yue Guanchao whispered in the dark.
"Don't make any noise, these shadow puppets have just begun, at least wait until the performance is over."
While speaking, Song Siyuan's eyes were fixed on Ban Nu's appearance. The musical instrument troupe was playing and playing. Ban Nu was still acting like a beast, showing no signs of spiritual recovery. When the musical instruments were being played, she could only see a look of terror on her face. She was in the cage. Restless, like a frightened beast, he kept climbing on the cage, and even started to cover his ears.
Boom!
Boom!
Ban Nu covered his ears with both hands. It was no longer possible to climb the cage. He started to slam into the cage with his body, as if he wanted to knock a hole out of the cage. Every blow was so hard that everyone was frightened. What if? She really broke the cage and no one present could escape.
"Leader of the class, is your cage strong? Can it withstand collisions?"
Xu Xiake stared at the bright cage and shrank his neck.
Ban Shu said, "Don't worry. The material of this cage is taken from the iron mines near Wushan. It is made of fine iron and has been forged thousands of times. The impurities in the iron have been completely forged out. No matter how strong I am, my strength is limited to flesh and skin. As long as it is not a transparent iron bone, it is impossible to break the cage."
Yue Guanchao saw Xu Xiake shrinking his neck, and said with a teasing smile: "Why, haven't you monks seen through life and death? Why are you still so afraid of death? In the worst case, you can start over again and become a good man again in eighteen years."
The little Taoist priest rolled his eyes at him in the dark and snorted coldly: "Master Taoist, I eat fairy grass when I'm hungry, and drink dew when I'm thirsty. I've been practicing for ten years, why don't you start all over again..."
When the two were bickering, Ban Shu continued to explain: "Back then, after my sister lost her mind, before we had time to build the stone tower, we temporarily locked her in this cage. It has never been broken before. It is estimated that this time There's nothing wrong with it, but why did she suddenly start covering her ears? Could it be that she doesn't want to listen to this music."
Song Siyuan observed Ban Nu's abnormal behavior and explained: "Maybe the music of these shadow puppet shows is noise to her, and she covers her ears because she can't stand the noise, or there is another possibility."
She lowered her voice: "Ban Nu's consciousness may have been partially awakened by the shadow puppet show. However, due to her mental madness for thirty years, she could not accept that her feelings were back for a while, so she seemed anxious and tried her best to cover it up. Close your ears.”
When they were talking, Ban Nu had no intention of stopping rushing against the cage. He saw that his whole body had been bruised and the blood was very clear on her snow-white skin, which made her look even more terrifying and pitiful. Ban Nu knew that his sister had suffered a lot. Sin, there is some unbearable expression on his face.
"Otherwise, forget it."
Ban Shu's eyes were a little pitiful.
"Leader of the class, we have already reached this point. If we try to take it back at this time, all our previous efforts will be wasted. If you ask me, we should increase the stimulation. Only by breaking through can we stand up."
After that, Song Siyuan clapped her hands. Not only did the musical instrument team not stop, but they played more intensively, and even the rhythm was much faster. Surrounded by suitcases on all sides, she couldn't even escape. No matter where she went, Musical instruments were coming from all directions, and she couldn't avoid them but had to listen.
In this instrumental music, Bannu's miserable roar finally turned into a cry, like a wild beast crying full of resentment. Even if you cover your ears, you have to be affected by these instrumental music.
At the same time, Ban Nu's mood became worse and worse. He seemed to have a splitting headache and covered his ears. He purred from his throat like a night owl in danger. His teeth creaked and rubbed, and he let out a high-pitched scream, which made people feel like There is an awl stirring, and it hurts.
Amidst the rumble of the cage being hit, Ban Nu's eyes also turned red, and translucent red tears began to flow from the corners of her eyes, leaving blood on her cheeks as if she was crying, making her even more terrifying.
"ah!"
Ban Nu's physical strength has been exhausted, and he has no strength to even move around in the cage. He is like a puppet with broken strings, slumped on the ground of the cage like mud. After the blood and tears in the animal's eyes have run out, crystal clear eyes finally begin to appear. Human tears.
As tears streaked across the corners of his eyes like gold and jewels, Ban Nu's heart kept heaving, as if something was about to burst out of his chest. His upper body was thrust upwards like a bow, and blood spurted out from his heart with a slurp. When he lay down again, he was already See her regaining her composure and regaining the rhythm of a human breath!
