I think the bang bang ping pong sounds that came from the woods just now should be the sounds made by this paper brother chopping wood.
But this is not the point. The point is: such a thin paper man, who looks like he can be blown away by a gust of wind, can actually carry so much firewood!
Jiang Xiyan glanced at the thin paper man in front of him, and then at the pile of firewood on the ground that weighed at least a hundred pounds. The surprise in his eyes was like a wave, surging out one after another, almost overflowing.
He couldn't help but stretch out two fingers, grabbed one of Paper Brother's arms and shook it, then he heard a "swish" sound, and one of Paper Brother's arms was broken by him.
Jiang Xiyan: “…”
Curiosity kills. Seeing everyone looking at him, Young Sect Leader Jiang was dumbfounded and quickly explained, "I didn't mean to do that! I was just curious and wanted to touch and shake it, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect..."
Unexpectedly, he accidentally shook the paper brother's arm off!
——To be honest, that paper brother’s shoulders could carry a bundle of firewood weighing more than 100 pounds, but his arms were more fragile than bean sprouts and broke with a single shake. Who could have imagined that?
The paper arm held between the fingertips was so light that it swayed from side to side when the wind blew. Its weight was almost negligible.
However, Jiang Xiyan felt that the arm seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, so heavy that he couldn't lift it. He subconsciously let go and threw it to the ground, but suddenly felt that it was too rude to throw it away like this, so he quickly picked it up and frantically tried to help the paper brother put his arm back on... In the end, he naturally couldn't put it back on, and could only look at Shen Qiqi with a sad face, asking for help.
Seeing him like this, Shen Qiqi couldn't help but shook her head in amusement, stepped forward, took the paper brother's arm, and connected it easily.
Jiang Xiyan was surprised and said, "That's it? It's so simple!"
Shen Qiqi turned her head to look at him, and instead of answering, she asked, "Is it simple?"
"..." Jiang Xiyan thought about the embarrassing situation where he had just used all his strength and was sweating profusely, but still couldn't help the man reattach his arm. He quickly changed the subject and said, "It's not easy. It's not easy at all!"
There is nothing truly simple in this world. Any smooth and skillful work is the result of countless sweat and hard work.
Shen Qiqi smiled and said nothing more. She grabbed a stack of folded paper figures on the table, raised her hand and scattered them. Twenty or thirty yellow paper figures flew in the air, stretching and widening the moment they landed.
Then the next moment, those paper people with flat bodies and no facial features started to get busy under the leadership of the original paper big brother.
Kill chickens and fish, chop meat and wash vegetables, climb up the tree and break off straight and thin branches, pick up stones and pile them in two rows to form a long and narrow ditch, then throw firewood into the stone ditch and light the firewood.
boom--
The flames leaped up, and the vision, which had been darkened by the approaching dusk, suddenly became bright.
After a few paper men placed a few burning torches around, the view became brighter, almost as bright as day.
Jiang Xiyan was stunned to see a group of paper people doing their tasks with clear division of labor. They were busy but not chaotic, and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner. They were even more capable than the servants in his house.
Since he grew up, at least ninety-nine demons have died by his sword. When he was fourteen years old, he single-handedly destroyed the lair of a water monster. Since then, the river has been calm and has never suffered from a flood disaster.
Therefore, he is not one of those ordinary people who have never seen the world.
But this was the first time Jiang Xiyan had seen such an obedient and capable paper man.
When Jiang Xiyan found out that Shen Qiqi had made such a big scene and was really going to entertain ghost guests from all over the world, his jaw dropped to the ground in shock.
Sect Master Jiang stared at Shen Qiqi, his eyes wide open as he observed her carefully, trying to determine whether Shen Qiqi was joking with him or was serious.
In the end, he found out that Shen Qiqi was not joking with him, and the other party really wanted to entertain ghost guests from all directions.
Young Sect Master Jiang, who thought he was quite knowledgeable, was now really upset. He pointed at the flames burning in the stone ditch, then at the fresh ingredients in the paper man's hand, and asked Shen Qiqi in disbelief: "Those are all ghosts! Can ghosts eat these things?!"
The dead can only eat offerings made with incense, and it will only eat when the living invite it by name, otherwise it can only watch helplessly.
Ghosts must also abide by the rules of the ghost world and cannot commit robbery or robbery.
Jiang Xiyan had never heard that the dead could eat food that the living ate. It was simply a fairy tale and unheard of.
There were five people in the group. Except for Shen Qiqi, the person involved, and Xie Beiming, who had seen Shen Qiqi conquer ghosts with food in his previous life, the other three all found the idea of entertaining ghosts from all over the world a terrifying and surprising thing. At this moment, they all looked at Shen Qiqi eagerly, wanting to hear her explanation.
Shen Qiqi: ...How should she explain this?
Under normal circumstances, dead people cannot eat the food that living people eat.
However, it is possible under abnormal circumstances.
For example, the meals she cooked.
This is a special benefit bestowed upon these talisman practitioners by Heaven.
Shen Qiqi looked at the three people in front of her who were still eagerly waiting for her to explain their doubts. She thought that if she didn't give an explanation, it would not work, so she organized her words and said:
"I practice the art of talismans. During the cooking process, I can infuse the ingredients with magic to change their properties. This way, the ghosts can enjoy the food of the mortal world just like when they were alive."
