Speaking of terror, a sudden gust of cold wind blew in during the middle of the day.
Then all the paper figures came to life, staring at Zhao Youliang and the group of immortals with blood-red eyes.
"No way! They're making a scene in broad daylight?!"
Upon seeing this, the immortals realized that in their haste they had entered the paper-making shop and quickly retreated.
The paper figures chuckled and moved slowly toward the door with eerie steps.
"Stop them!"
As Zhao Youliang spoke, he and Liao Zhiyuan worked together to stop the paper figures:
It's the kind of thing where you pick them up one by one, and pick up the one that runs to the front first.
Unfortunately, there were too many paper figures, and the two of them simply couldn't keep up.
Finally, a paper figure stepped out of the paper shop amidst Zhao Youliang's despairing gaze, and then... it shrank rapidly, becoming like two little lackeys.
Then, giggling, he climbed onto the badly injured big yellow dog and kept kowtowing.
"Great Lord Huang is mighty! Great Lord Huang is mighty!"
"What?! What's going on?!" Just as everyone was incredibly surprised, the rest of the paper figures also ran out, turned into little lackeys, and climbed onto the big yellow dog's back.
Eighteen paper figures lined up in two rows, kowtowing loudly to the big yellow dog.
"Master Huang is so mighty! He beat Quantum until he cried out in pain!"
Zhao Youliang: "Holy crap..."
As the person involved... even the dog, Dahuang, was shocked by this scene.
Only after discovering that the little paper doll really wouldn't hurt him did he finally feel relieved.
Carrying eighteen little lackeys, he swaggered and showed off to Zhao Youliang and Liao Zhiyuan.
Then, amidst the two lads' sycophantic praise of "You're awesome, sir! May you be blessed, sir!", they swayed their big butts and went off to act like hooligans in the street.
Watching the backs of the big yellow dog and his legion of little dogs, Zhao and Liao remained silent for a long time.
At that moment, they seemed to realize that they would probably live under the tyranny of dogs for the rest of their lives.
"Wow, what's the deal with Big Yellow? It's getting weirder and weirder!"
No one could answer Zhao Youliang's question, and the scene fell silent for a moment.
......
As I always say, no matter how tough life gets, you have to persevere; as long as you're alive, you have to make money.
After nightfall, Zhao Youliang, along with Liao Zhiyuan, carrying Xiaojiaozi and with Egg Boy on their heads, went to work at the barbecue restaurant.
Customers continued to come to eat, and the chanting of sutras continued unabated during the water and land rituals across the street.
Judging from the current situation, they should still be in the seventh step, which is the [granting of the Netherworld Ring].
Guide the deceased to repent for the evil deeds they have committed in the past, vow to correct their mistakes and do good deeds, and seek the precepts.
Furthermore, the number of evil spirits gathering near the altar is increasing, including not only the hundred ghosts seen before, but also people who have died in the town over the past few decades.
Because of the "sealed gate layout," some of these people's souls were unable to leave this place and have now been drawn out.
He kowtowed repeatedly to the two puppets on the altar, completely dazed.
It was like a prayer, or perhaps a confession.
The two puppets smiled eerily, looking towards the barbecue restaurant.
Behind them stood Old Wu and his wife, the carpenters, and the evil spirit dragging a sack.
As for the three strange and vengeful ghosts from before, they were nowhere to be seen, obviously because they were completely annihilated after crashing into the small wooden knife.
Zhao Youliang could only pretend not to see any of the above and continue to attend to the guests.
Thus, the road in the middle, like a dividing line between Yin and Yang, separates the barbecue restaurant from the water and land ritual, representing life and death.
Just as she was busy, Sister Yingchun quietly walked up to Zhao Youliang.
"Quantum, quantum, don't you think there's something strange about the other side?"
Zhao Youliang was taken aback: "Strange? Sis, you can see the dirty things on the other side?!"
"Yes!" Sister Yingchun nodded slightly, her face pale.
"I couldn't see clearly before, but now I can."
"What...what happened? You even moved those two dolls from your shop onto the counter?!"
Zhao Youliang smiled wryly upon hearing this, thinking to himself: My dear silly sister, did they move them upstairs? They probably just ran away from home themselves...
Just as Zhao was speechless, he suddenly saw the long-lost Yinling Chariot appear beside the altar.
And this time, the Yinling Cart didn't "fight" with the evil spirits. Instead, a person stepped out of it, a person who almost made Zhao Youliang scream out loud—Sister Yingchun!
The woman who greeted the spring festival glanced coldly in the direction of the barbecue restaurant, then floated down and sat between the two puppets.
The puppet seemed terrified of Sister Yingchun and quickly made way for her.
In this way, it's as if Sister Yingchun is the patriarch of all evil spirits, just waiting for the right moment to take revenge on the creatures in the town.
Meanwhile, the ghosts inside the ghost carriage pressed their pale green faces against the glass, looking this way.
Granny Wenmi and Shopkeeper Sun, with tears streaming down their faces, spoke to Zhao Youliang, their lip movements clearly conveying the message: "Quantum, run!"
Zhao Youliang's strange appearance immediately aroused the curiosity of Yingchun's sister-in-law. "Liang, Liangzi, what's wrong with you?"
After calling several times, Zhao Youliang finally reacted: "Sister, sister, can you see yourself on the other side?"
"Me on the other side?" This time it was Sister Yingchun's turn to be stunned.
I mustered up my courage and glanced at it, then quickly looked away.
"Quantum, don't try to scare me. I'm not on the other side. It's the same as before!"
"Huh?!" Surprised, Zhao Youliang quickly said that he must have seen wrong.
Then, taking advantage of a busy moment, he asked Liao Zhiyuan the same question.
As a result, Liao Zhiyuan couldn't see Yingchun's sister-in-law on the other side; he could only see that there was an empty space between the two figures.
Zhao Youliang was not confident that his skills had surpassed those of Xiao Liao, and he hurriedly pondered what was going on.
Just then, Chang Jie, who was lying on his head smoking and flicking cigarette ash, suddenly spoke up.
"Quantum, you're not mistaken, there really is an extra woman on the other side, I can see that too."
"It's midnight now, and I'm not nearsighted anymore."
Zhao Youliang: "......"
“Egg Boy, do you know…” Zhao Youliang wanted to ask, “Do you know what’s going on?” But then he remembered how not very bright he was as a younger brother, so he simply didn’t ask.
He didn't ask, but listened to Chang Jie continue speaking.
"Quantum, I'm a little scared, can we go home right away?"
Chang Jie's words once again shocked Zhao Youliang.
You should know that although my little brother Egg is silly, when has he ever said the word "fear"?
Not only did he never say it, but he would also repeat "Chang family will fight to the death" whenever they encountered danger, and he never backed down in the face of battle.
Now he's actually scared. How strange must that "thing" on the other side be?
