I kill the gods in the infinite script

Chapter 21 Puppet Town (4)
Shu Li handed the two books to the two people who came back from rinsing their mouths, and then went to search for other items in the shop.

There are three large cabinets in the front space, one horizontally and two vertically. The horizontal cabinet is the largest and contains the most and most exquisite jewelry.

There is a small door on the right side of the horizontal cabinet. When you push the door open, you will find a bedroom.

It's said to be a bedroom, but it's actually just a small, narrow room.

There is a simple bed at the end, then a round table, and then two bookshelves on both sides of the door.

It is already narrow, but with so many furnishings, the cramped space makes people feel cramped just looking at it.

Shu Li still looked through the bookcase first. The rest were some ordinary jewelry-made books, only a few slightly thinner books were very different.

These books generally record the rumors about the wishing puppet, as well as its detailed appearance.

"If you are of the same height as others, how can you still blend in with the crowd?" Shu Li made a sound unconsciously and continued to turn over the pages in confusion.

One of them, "Qi General Zhi", has the most detailed records. The summary is as follows.

【In the third year of Mingzuo's reign in Qi Dynasty today, Emperor Ming failed to send out his troops, and reinforcements did not arrive for a long time, leaving the army in panic.The enemy general forced me into a ravine, but the emperor came to rescue me.However, Emperor Ji led the troops at least, but the morale of the troops was not calmed. 】

[A few days later, Di Ji asked an expert to sit in the role of a puppet and defeat powerful enemies. 】

[The posture of a puppet is as high as a human being and can be used for human speech.And bless you all, if there is light on your fingertips.It’s so strange, God bless me! 】

The above is a personal journal written by a border guard general from an imaginary dynasty. It is the earliest record of wishing puppets.

This book also had two annotations. Shu Li could only understand the meaning of the annotations, regardless of whether the ink was old or new.

Firstly, it is said that "the treasure is lost and cannot be found, the witch clan is in decline, and future generations should search for it with all their heart." 】

Secondly, it is said that "there are rumors spreading everywhere today, and it is hoped that a family biography can be found." 】

Shu Li had a guess in her mind, and when she searched inside again, she found a piece of paper from under the table, with the time Zuo Si left and entered the house written on it.

Then there was a palm-sized puppet placed in a secret compartment on the bed. It was invisible and made of ordinary wood.

It seems that Boss Cuoyue and the wishing puppet have quite a connection.

Shu Li took what she found and walked out of the small door, and saw Hua Rong and Lin Meiren carefully carrying an ornament to the counter.

After seeing them place the ornaments, Shu Li walked over and asked, "What is this?"

"It was moved from there. It seems quite important." Huarong pointed to the wall beside her. The opened secret door was still dangling.

The base under the ornament is a solid rectangular parallelepiped, which looks very heavy.

On the top of the ornament is a bright moon, holding a puppet with its eyes closed and sitting sideways with its knees clasped.

Engraved on the base are the words Fengyue Clan.

"I also found some clues." After just one glance, Shuli put what she found on the table.

"Cuo Yue is the heir of the Fengyue clan, and we found his token." Huarong pointed to other things on the table. She and Lin Meiren gained quite a lot.

Lin Meiren also spoke: "The ledger on the open side only records these ordinary jewelry, but the jewelry made in Cuo Yue that contains the secret method of the Fengyue Clan, only a dozen pieces were sold sporadically."

Shu Li also highlighted the key points of the clues she found.

"In that case, Cuoyue's suspicion has become smaller." Lin Meiren said: "Zuo Si knows the whereabouts of the puppet, and Cuoyue should be the one who wants him alive the most."

Hua Rong smiled: "Then what if he has learned everything from Zuo Si and wants to silence him instead?" Shu Li voted in favor: "Not to mention the small town residents who rely on the wishing puppets for survival, even a few of us have I came here because of that puppet. So it’s not impossible to silence him.”

"There is nothing to search here, let's go to the next one." Lin Meiren had the same idea as them: "We'll talk about it after we finish searching."

Shu Li nodded and took a look at the exploration level. This time it had increased to [-]%.

He Jian's shop was face to face with Lin Meiren's, and when Shu Li and the others walked over, they happened to see their leaving figures.

After seeing them, Lin Meiren's expression was a little unpleasant.

The three boys almost all had something in their hands, and they looked like they had gained a lot.

Compared with the three of them who only picked up important and light things, the three of them seemed to be moving.

Seeing this, Shu Li comforted her kindly: "They are very strong. Maybe they have taken everything that is useful and useless."

Lin Meiren said "hmm", but turned around and entered He Jian's shop, with a "very serious" attitude all over her body.

Shu Li touched her nose, and the beautiful girl on the side turned around and went in after seeing enough of the excitement.

Although He Jian's shop is a blacksmith shop, the small shop is filled with all kinds of knives and sharp tools.

"It's a bit unreasonable." Huarong didn't rush to search. It was enough for Lin Meiren to search for the places that could be seen at a glance.

Seeing Shu Li's doubts, Huarong continued: "It is known that we temporarily heard about the magic of this town, so we decided to come here together."

"In just one year, everyone has a shop. Does it mean that everyone comes with a huge amount of money?"

Shu Li agreed with her idea and continued: "And according to what the residents said, Zuo Si often asked for money and wealth from my identity. And the sentence I saw at Zuo Si's house, what about Boss Shu's money?" It’s his, and what happened a year ago should also be the focus.”

Hua Rong looked up at her in surprise, and couldn't help asking: "You say that, aren't you afraid that I will be the real culprit and put the blame on you?"

Shu Li looked at her up and down and said seriously: "Indeed, you provided a good opinion."

Huarong:?
Shu Li imitated her and smiled: "If I were the murderer, I would also throw dirty water on you."

Shu Li folded up her sleeves and joined the search, but the general was stunned by the general's beauty for a while.

Although He Jian's shop was not big, the layout was too messy, which cost the three of them a lot of time.

The smelting fire was still warm, as if it had just been extinguished a few hours ago.

In the thick charcoal ashes, Lin Meiren, who was extremely serious, found a broken sword with a cracked blade.

Apart from this, there is only a poorly painted portrait, which vaguely shows the appearance of Lin Meiren.

Smelling the smell of gossip, the calm-looking Huarong's eyes lit up, but...

Seeing the delicate beauty who was already a little irritable because she found so few things, she swallowed the words back in her stomach.

Hua Rong silently came to Shu Li's side and whispered: "Persuasion?"

Shu Li spread her hands with the smallest range of movement, but she couldn't persuade him at all.

Whoever likes to persuade is advised.
