Her face was excited, her eyes were shining, and there was no trace of fear on her face.
Da Mu next to him lowered his head, but did not dare to speak in agreement at this time.
Su Wu was still looking at the patterns outlined with gold and red paint in the corners of the courtyard and the eaves of the pillars - those patterns mostly looked like human faces or animal faces, and they looked extremely hideous and terrifying.
There is no breath flowing over them,
But combined, they firmly blocked the black mist spreading outside the door.
This method reminded Su Wu of Haruko's oil-paper umbrella that was bitten into pieces by the 'Slit Mouth Girl'.
When the oil-paper umbrella came into play for the first time, beating the 'slit-mouthed girl' back, Su Wu clearly heard a babble-like sound of chanting a sutra and mantra.
——Who blessed the oil-paper umbrella with a certain spell?
In this current era, what are the methods used by Dongliu Island to resist Li Wei?
"Miss Haruko!
You came back too late today, I am very worried about you, please go see me first!"
At this time, a short young man emerged from the many male servants. He was stooped and straightened at the waist. He was speaking respectfully to Haruko, who was actually a head taller than him.
Qingzi nodded: "Okay!"
Surrounded by many servants, she took a few steps forward and suddenly turned around.
Seeing other male servants staying at the door, they surrounded Da Mu, while Su Wu was selectively ignored by the male servants and stood outside the crowd.
"You are not allowed to embarrass Damu and Abu!" Qingzi wrinkled her nose, pointed at the male servants and yelled.
The short young man who spoke just now bowed again and said: "Miss Haruko, Omu was ordered to take you home, but he kept you on the road for so long that you almost didn't make it back before dark.
He must be punished.
This is the family motto of our Inoue family!”
The short young man spoke calmly,
But he chose Su Wu, the ‘Abu’ who also had not completed his duties, to go out.
Su Wu watched this scene thoughtfully.
The reason why I can avoid punishment is
It seems that it is not because of Haruko, a noble lady,
Is it because I officially entered Mo today and am now qualified to become a master craftsman at An Gang Sword Forging Institute?
The past life opened by spending three hundred yuan jade,
Sure enough, it still gave me some status conveniences.
My status is higher than Ohmu and the many Inoue servants at the beginning, and my potential in the future can be seen. At least becoming a master craftsman of Yasuna Sword Forging Factory is not a problem.
"I was the one who delayed him on the road,
I dragged him not to go home, so he could only obey my instructions!" Haruko raised her chin and said loudly, "If you want to punish him, then punish me first!"
"this……"
The short young man and all the male servants lowered their heads.
"Are you going to punish me?
If you don't dare to punish me, don't say anything like punishing Damu.
Let’s let everything go as it is today!”
Miss Haruko suddenly smiled again: "Hehe, I will pay attention to it and promise not to go home so late tomorrow!"
Listen to her talk,
Su Wu below looked up at her.
This noble lady is quite interesting.
Compared with her previous character of being 'unable to read the air', 'single-minded', and 'silly and bold', she now seems to have a moderate attitude towards advancement and retreat. She actually knows not to damage the face of the head valet too much and proactively promises to be on time.
Go home and give the other person a step down.
From this point of view, this Haruko does not seem to be a person who does not understand the world...
Then it makes sense that she was not afraid of Li Gui before, so it seems that she is not a "stupid" person, but "silly and bold".
She knows her own worth,
He even took the initiative to stop two servants.
Protect the servant from the ‘slit-mouthed woman’?
What kind of behavior is this?
Could it be that he has learned the style of the powerful men of the Tang Dynasty in his bones?
After hearing what Miss Haruko said, the head valet's originally stiff face softened a bit, and he said calmly: "Well, since the lady has made a promise, let's forget it this time."
He turned to the trembling Damu and said seriously: "Damu, there will be no next time!"
Omu was so grateful that he fell to the ground and said to the head male servant, "Toshikaza": "Yes!"
Then he turned to Haruko and still performed the same etiquette: "Thank you, Miss Haruko!"
Haruko frowned, but didn't say anything after all. She turned around and went with the other maids to report to her father that she was safe.
The servants gathered here dispersed one after another,
Damu stood up like a normal person, patted the dirt on his body, and said to Su Wu who was waiting for him: "Abu, let's go back, let's go back to sleep."
The young man looked kind-hearted and slightly timid.
The previous scene where everyone squeezed him into a corner and threatened him didn't seem to have much impact on him.
Su Wu glanced at Da Mu who didn't care about what happened before.
I sighed slightly in my heart.
He walked with Da Mu,
After turning around the exquisitely built garden houses in the courtyard, we arrived in front of a row of low wooden houses.
The "Inoue family" seems to be quite powerful in the local area. The garden they built is quite large. The garden is paved with fine sand, and the moonlight shines on it, like a flowing silver lake.
At present, the buildings of the aristocrats of Dongliu Island imitate the Tang style and have not yet developed their own style.
Therefore, although these buildings are extremely exquisite, they lack the bold and comfortable style of the buildings in the Tang Dynasty and appear to be quite "small-minded".
"Abu, where is your home?
Where are you going?" Damu saw Su Wu walking toward the row of low wooden houses, and hurriedly stopped him, pulling him to point to another taller and spacious wooden house opposite the low wooden houses.
"I understand." Su Wu nodded without changing his expression and said to Damu, "See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow!"
After the two teenagers said goodbye to each other,
One walked towards the tall and spacious house,
One approached a low, narrow wooden house.
‘Squeak!’
Su Wu pushed open the wooden door and heard a tooth-grinding sound from the door hinge.
There wasn't even a light in the dark room.
At the moment, all of Su Wu's talents remain in his true body, and he does not have the ability to see in the dark.
But the power of his mind also gave him outstanding perception.
Just relying on the moist air circulation in the house,
He can identify obstacles in objects and walk freely in a dark room.
Close the door,
He took off his straw sandals and walked silently in the house with his feet on the wooden floor.
After walking a few steps and crossing the entrance hall,
His steps paused slightly, and his body tensed slightly——
A few steps in front of him, a lamp lit up in an instant.
It reflected a tall but thin figure sitting cross-legged on the floor.
The tall figure had a hunched back and was covered with colorful tattoos. Under the light of the fire, those complicated patterns depicted a group of ferocious monsters dancing around a huge pot in the sea of fire.
Ohmu once mentioned that the original owner Abu also had a father suffering from a strange disease.
From Su Wu’s point of view now,
The father ‘Abu’ is not suffering from a strange disease.
——It is completely eroded by Li Wei!
In other words, it contains a Li Wei within itself!
Moreover, the charisma of this sly and mysterious expression is so strong that its terror level must be hovering at the 'ferocious level'!
Su Wu didn't expect that,
The most terrifying person I encountered today was actually the father of the original owner.
He was still thinking about it in his heart,
The man opposite has already spoken,
The words spoken by the man were not Dongliu Island dialect, but some kind of local Chinese that Su Wu was quite familiar with!
"Has Kira inked you?"
Su Wu was shocked for a moment,
Realizing that the original owner's father might have some other hidden identity,
When you speak, it’s local Chinese that tastes so pure!
"Already inked."
He also answered in Chinese, deliberately speaking Chinese in a more awkward and awkward manner, and it was somewhat similar to the local dialect spoken by men.
The man's expression remained unchanged,
I didn't have the slightest doubt about Su Wu's accent.
"The ink painting of 'Mount Tai's Hundred Demons and Cannibals' Banquet' lacks the most critical 'Ritual of Worshiping Mount Tai' and cannot truly summon the mountain to suppress the demons. As a result, the power of this ink painting cannot be fully utilized. Bring it into play.
But at least,
It's enough to make iron and forge swords." The man's beard twitched slightly, his eyes were red, and a strange and strange charm had penetrated his eyes.
His current situation is extremely wrong,
It is obvious that he has been deeply invaded by the evil spirits, and the "Ink Drawing" he is carrying not only cannot provide him with strength,
On the contrary, it is encouraging the resurgence of evil in his body!
Su Wu looked at each other,
There shouldn't be much time left to live.
the day of his death,
That’s when the evil in the body comes back to life!
The man seemed to notice Su Wu's gaze. He smiled silently and took out a three-layered lacquer box from behind.
He opened the three-layer paint box one after another,
The paint box is divided into three parts.
A box was filled with fat pork that glistened under the lamp;
A box contains a tall layer of rice;
In a box, there is milky white milk!
"Spring is coming.
That wild boar meat won't last long,
I took some meat today and exchanged some milk with a peasant woman.
Her child died, and this milk is left for you to drink to strengthen your health!
Injecting ink with your body consumes too much,
If you don't accumulate yourself, you will definitely not be able to withstand the gnawing power of the group of monsters.
Eat quickly!
After eating, please eat and go to bed quickly!" The man pushed the food in front of Su Wu.
Su Wu was silent for a while,
Only then did I understand,
Why does the original owner's height stand out among the Dongliu Islanders?
The reason for this is the blood of the original owner - at least half of the blood of the Tang Dynasty flows in the original owner.
It’s also because his father tries to give him extra meals every day!
Today’s Dongliu Island,
‘Meat bans’ are prevalent,
The nobles and wealthy families took the lead in abiding by the meat ban, and the common people below naturally had to follow suit.
Without meat to supplement protein, nobles can still eat venison, birds, and rabbits that are not within the scope of the ban. Common people can only eat fish and seafood for daily use, and even these cannot be eaten.
This resulted in the people of Dongliu Island being short and wretched, and naturally quite different from the people of the Tang Dynasty.
Su Wu picked up the lacquer box and ate the food.
The man watched him gobble it up,
Grinning happily.
Laughed for a while,
He suddenly said: "It has been more than two hundred years since Master Jianzhen traveled eastward...
A ghost from the old world like me may not be able to return to my homeland before I die..."
