Princess Xin picked up two strands of broken hair and gently pushed them behind her ears. Her fingertips traced her flawless white cheeks, and it felt like they would be scratched if they were a little heavy.
Xu Wuzhou quickly caught two butterflies from a distance, which made Shengxian'er burst into laughter.
The breeze blew, refreshing the heart and mind. Princess Xin's hair could not be pressed against her ears, and she kept caressing Sheng Xian'er's face, causing her to keep avoiding it.
Princess Xin had no choice but to put Sheng Xian'er down. Sheng Xian'er was like an elf, running to Xu Wuzhou, holding Xu Wuzhou's hand: "Uncle Qin Xu, Hua'er... let's go to Hua'er to catch butterflies."
Xu Wuzhou was dragged by a little brat and had no temper at all. What could he do? Don't go! People will cry to you right away, and they are still the kind that can't be coaxed.
It’s just that I am playing the game of chasing butterflies with a little kid. How shameful!
Hey, that black butterfly is so big. It would be fun to catch it and tie it with a thin string.
…………
When Princess Xin saw the two of them running around chasing butterflies in the garden, a smile broke out on her face and she ordered the maid next to her to prepare some tea and desserts.
Then, she sat in the pavilion, took out some needles and threads, and started making needlework in the pavilion.
Where she sits, she is as quiet as a picture, with a plump body, just like a picture of a beautiful lady.
Sheng Xian'er likes rag dolls. She took out some leather that was as delicate as skin, and casually cut some with scissors. The needle and thread in her hand moved strand by strand, and she was very meticulous. Soon, a piece of cloth the size of a palm was made.
The doll has taken shape.
She did it very meticulously, and each strand of the doll's hair was sewn out one by one, showing every detail.
As long as you stay like this, an hour will pass.
Sheng Xian'er finally got tired of playing and pestered Xu Wuzhou to hold her and chase the butterflies. Xu Wuzhou had no choice but to hold her and chase her for a while, but when he lowered his head, he saw that she had fallen asleep in his arms.
Xu Wuzhou then carried her into the pavilion. Seeing Xu Wuzhou's arrival, Princess Xin poured a cup of tea for Xu Wuzhou: "Drink some water to quench your thirst."
Having said this, he said to the maid next to him: "Go and bring some freshly made desserts. These are already cold, take them back."
"It's okay!" Xu Wuzhou was not a fastidious person, so he picked up a piece of cold pastry and ate it. However, he immediately realized that his movements were a bit big, and he was afraid of affecting the Holy Fairy in his arms, so he ate in small bites.
Xu Wuzhou was eating cakes and his eyes fell on Princess Xin's red dress. When he saw the leather placed next to her, his heart trembled slightly.
If human warriors want to leave the demon clan, the best way is to let them pretend to be demons. His skin painting technique can do this. However, what is needed is human skin.
The human skins of hundreds of people were too cruel. Although Xu Wuzhou was not a good person, and the human race and the demon race were world enemies, he could not kill innocent people indiscriminately just to take human skins.
In fact, even among the demon warriors who were his enemies, Xu Wuzhou did not skin everyone. During this battle, many warriors died in his hands. But Xu Wuzhou only peeled off human skins like that.
Some.
Xu Wuzhou is not a pedantic person and will not give up stripping just because of cruelty. But what he can do is to do as little as possible.
If there were only dozens of people, Xu Wuzhou gritted his teeth. The warriors who came to kill him were killed by him instead. He could use the skill of painting skin to get their human skin, just to send the human race back safely.
Compared with kindness, human life is more important.
But hundreds of people were definitely not what the warriors who were chasing him could provide.
Human skin is of course the best way to perform the art of skin painting, but without human skin. If you can find the right materials, you can also perform the art of skin painting, but it is relatively more troublesome. Let’s not talk about the actual skin painting. The most important thing is to
Seal the spirit of the demon warriors, and then you can barely form a painted skin to disguise the demons.
Whether it is painting the skin or sealing the demon spirit into the leather, it is an extremely troublesome and energy-consuming task.
Moreover, the effect of painting the skin in this way is far worse than that of actual peeling. It is a thankless task.
But for Xu Wuzhou, he prefers this method. Although it is more troublesome, he feels at ease.
The leather in front of me is just the right material for painting.
"What kind of leather is this?" Xu Wuzhou asked Princess Xin casually while drinking tea.
Princess Xin said: "This is the leather of cicada fish. Cicada fish is as big as a cow, but its skin is like cicada wings and as delicate as human skin. It feels and looks great. Princes and nobles like it.
Making genuine leather items.”
After saying that, Princess Xin took out several more cicada skins, each of which was huge.
"No! That's it!"
Xu Wuzhou drank tea, looked at it and nodded, thinking about how to get this kind of cicada skin.
Just as she was thinking about this, she saw Princess Xin yawning.
"I'm a little tired! Give me Xian'er and I'll take her back to sleep for a while."
After saying that, Princess Xin reached out and took Sheng Xian'er from Xu Wuzhou's arms. Her hand touched Xu Wuzhou's body inadvertently, and her hand felt a little cold, like the feeling of an ice mat touching the skin in summer.
Sheng Xian'er turned in one direction in her arms, just nestled on her mountain-like softness, rubbed it a few times, and slept sweetly with a smile in her mouth.
Princess Xin hugged her lovingly and left, taking the rag doll with her when she left. However, she forgot to take away the pieces of cicada skin and left them in the pavilion.
