Chapter 41 The real face

Lu Jing is really not skilled in following this kind of work. Fortunately, the old man has not received anti-tracking training. Although he occasionally looks back along the way, Lu Jing can basically detect it in advance and hide it first.

After more than 20 minutes of "dragging" back and forth, the old man finally stopped in front of a small courtyard or workshop in the north of the city. When he went up to knock on the door, he looked around and looked around.

Lu Jing sat next to the pancake stall, with his back facing him, holding a pancake in his hand.

Haha, this old man is still too young!

"Hey! What cakes did you give me?"

“…I’m sorry, how much?”

While checking out, Lu Jing adjusted his position. He looked at the figure appearing in the open door over there, his gaze suddenly froze, and his expression became a little strange.

Why is this guy?

Holding the baked cake, he put the umbrella in his hand down, and walked around from several cars parked on the street to the other side of the courtyard. During this period, Lu Jing noticed that the old man didn't enter the door and stood outside and talked to her. He probably wanted to leave after he finished speaking.

"Xiao Ju, I won't read it wrong, that's the soul-sending puppet. I really don't know what's wrong. The making of that kind of sinister thing seems to have been circulated. A group of people came not long ago, but I didn't expect that people would come again this time... Listen to me, hurry up and find a place to avoid the limelight. I won't stay here for more, be careful yourself!"

Perhaps because he was worried that he would be noticed after staying for a long time, the old man then left from the other side with his hat under his hat.

Bang ~

Close the door, Fu Ju leaned against the door panel, and sighed silently with his frown.

"This group of bastards is obviously just a little bit..."

He spat in a low voice, ran through the open-air yard in the rain, pushed the door and walked into his workshop, his eyes stayed on the utensils placed on the workbench in the middle, and turned to the wide wooden box next to him.

Dingling ~

A crisp sound of bells rang.

Fu Ju's movements suddenly paused, and he suddenly turned around and looked towards the direction of the gate. He came so quickly...

Oh no, Mr. Wu was followed!

Realizing the danger, Fu Ju immediately picked up a chisel placed on the workbench and stood behind the door, holding his breath and waiting for people outside to break in.

However, what she didn't expect was that the footsteps that were approaching suddenly stopped outside the door, and then a familiar voice came.

"Cai Opera Master, I'm here to ask for that golden leaf. Even if you don't get it out, there is no need to hide behind the door and kill someone to silence him... Besides, I don't plan to ask you to pay back the money now. I just have a few questions about the doll and want to ask you for advice."

Lu Jing naturally noticed the movement inside the house. He did not intend to keep it in secret, and deliberately mentioned what happened at the sea a few days ago.

After saying that, he didn't rush to go in, but took a step back and pressed Liuli, who had just poked his head out of his backpack and wanted to jump down, waiting for the people inside to react.

Crunch ~

The door opens.

Fu Ju stood in front of Lu Jing in silence. As soon as the latter revealed her identity, she thought of where the soul-sending puppet that Mr. Wu mentioned before came from.

"It's you!"

Looking at the girl in brown work clothes in front of her, she looked much calmer now than the two faces she showed when she met on the Youhai Flower Boat. After a brief silence, Lu Jing squinted her eyes and smiled,

"A few questions are made to exchange for 1 golden leaf. This price should be sincere enough, right?"

"The soul-sending puppet has arrived in your hands?"

"Of course, that's the trophy I found in the suitcase of the Nightmare Ghost Pirates. It must be a very valuable thing. You also know that people like us who have just gone to sea for a while have to use money, so I want to figure out its value first and then find a place for sale."

Lu Jing took out the soul-sending puppet from his backpack and asked.

He neither asked why Fu Ju was a colored actor on the Youhai Flower Boat a few days ago, and a few days later appeared on Qihuang Island, which was not on the Youhai Flower Boat route at all.

I didn't even go into the details why she, the descendant of the Fu family, used the identity of a colored opera master on the ship, and the members of the Nightmare Ghost Pirate Group who accidentally took the soul-sending puppet were also on the ship...

The intuition told Lu Jing that there was a big trouble here, and his purpose in coming to Qihuang Island was just to find out what this soul-sending puppet was.

"You can't sell it!"

Hearing Lu Jing’s thoughts, Fu Ju almost subconsciously denies it.

"This is my thing. If you don't let me sell it, you have to tell me the reason, right?"

Lu Jing still responded without any haste.

"You... are waiting for me in the house, and I will go get something."

As if he had noticed Lu Jing's intention, Fu Ju pursed his lips and finally let go of his position.

"Please, girl, don't be polite to me."

Lu Jing was not worried that Fu Ju would take this opportunity to leave, as the monk could run away, but the temple could not.

Putting the umbrella with water outside the door, as soon as he entered the door, Lu Jing's attention was immediately attracted by the obviously unfinished work on the workbench. Among a large number of mechanical or wooden parts, one looks like a paraglider, but there are some special structures in the riveted joints in each part.

I took the first two steps and saw a drawing on the table that I had not had time to put away. I thought it was the drawing for making the "pargliding". I glanced briefly but found that the drawing on the drawing was more like a planning drawing...

A mountain, a three-story building, there is a connecting arc in the middle, and in addition to a large number of calculation formulas and certain specific annotations.

Before Lu Jing could see the reason from here, the drawing was pulled away by one hand, and then the "pargliding" on the workbench was covered by a piece of black cloth.

"After all, I'm a descendant of the Fu family, and my ability to do things is really extraordinary."

This is what Lu Jing said in his heart. He wouldn't understand anything else, just those formulas.

"Some small items made by homemade are not worth mentioning... In short, you can take a look at this first."

Putting an incense burner on the table, there was a red incense stick inside. Seeing Lu Jing's face full of confusion, Fu Ju continued,

"Put the soul-sending puppet over the incense and you will understand what this thing is for."

"ah?"

Lu Jing didn't quite understand what Fu Ju meant, but he still put the soul-sending puppet on her as she said.

The gray-white smoke emitted from the incense burned lingered around the Soul-Submitting Puppet. At first, there was no change. Just as Lu Jing was about to ask questions, he saw that the puppet with the scarlet talisman changed a bit, and the next second it turned out to be a twisted wailing face!
