ghost craftsman

Chapter 83 The Shadow
At that moment, I was stunned, and my brain turned rapidly. I was so stunned that I couldn't figure out what was going on with this gate, and I couldn't explain it at all.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Qin Laosan said, "Chuanzi, why don't we burn this door down?"

I gave him a blank look, can this gate be burned with the current situation?

If it really burns, God knows what will happen.

Just as I was in a daze for a while, something happened to the gate again, and a two-finger-wide opening was split from the left side of the gate, and countless ants drilled out of it.

No, it's not an ant. That thing is indescribably weird. It's the size of a soybean, and its color is jet black, with a shimmer of light, like ants soaked in ink.

After those black ants got out, they rushed towards the room suddenly, making my scalp numb with fright. The main reason was that there were too many of them. In less than a moment, the entire gate was completely covered by black ants.

When Qin Laosan saw this situation, his face turned pale, and he subconsciously stepped back.

I didn't dare to hesitate, and stepped back outside.

It’s okay if you don’t return it. As soon as I retreated, those black ants rushed towards me. In an instant, my whole body was covered by those black ants, leaving only my two eyes outside.

I was completely stunned. I wanted Qin Laosan to call Master, but I didn't dare to speak. I was afraid that if I spoke, those black ants would get into my mouth.

Fortunately, Qin Lao San had seen the world, and when he saw something was wrong, he scooped up a bucket of water from somewhere and poured it on me.

As the clear water poured on me, those black ants seemed to be afraid of the water, so they swarmed away.

The moment they dispersed, my whole body became unprecedentedly relaxed, as if it had been washed by something, and even the strange feeling behind me was gone.

"Get out!" At this moment, a voice came over.

Turning around, it was the master.

The old man led the three Xu family brothers over slowly.

When I saw the master, I almost didn't cry. Although the scene just now was only a few seconds, it left a shadow in my heart.Even now, when I see groups of black things, my scalp goes numb subconsciously.

When Master came to me, I trembled and said, "Master, those black ants..."

Before I could finish speaking, he glared at me and scolded: "Useless things, the old man knew that you couldn't handle them, so I came here on purpose."

It's hard for me to refute a sentence, mainly because the whole thing is beyond my cognition.After all, I have only been an apprentice with my senior brother for one year. In the words of my senior brother, it takes at least three years and one festival from an apprentice to a teacher. This is the rule of our ghost craftsmen.

Seeing my squeaks, the master scolded me, saying that I was too timid, and said, "Learn a bit, this is how a real craftsman works."

While speaking, he gave me a wink, which meant that I should give him the tree of heaven.

I didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately handed it over to him, and said, "That room is full of black ants, I can't..."

Before the voice fell to the ground, the master interrupted my words and said: "Ghost craftsmen should not shrink back because of external factors when they work. Could it be that because of the rain, people can't take a bath or wash their clothes?"

I didn't speak anymore, I felt that what I said was wrong, so I stopped talking, and stood beside the master, and saw the master holding the tree of heaven, looking at it, and walking into the room with a cane .

I don't know if the master's aura is too strong, or what's going on, as the old man entered the room, those black ants actually took the initiative to give way, which made all of us dumbfounded. There was only one thought in our hearts, this old man It is a living fairy.

Qin Lao San even pulled me secretly and said, "Chuanzi, your master is not a fairy!"

I gave him a blank look, and was about to speak, when I realized that the master looked towards us, and gave us both another look, which meant to tell us not to talk.

After the master entered the room, because the old man's legs and feet were inconvenient, he didn't walk very far, so he stopped, looked up at the house, and said coldly: "Young man, I really think that the old man can't do anything about you."

After finishing speaking, the old man slowly raised his hand and threw the Sky Tree into the air. The Sky Tree spun a few times in the air, and stood straight on the ground in a daze.

That's right, the tree was standing that day.

Based on this skill alone, I guess I will have to learn for several months. The reason is very simple. The wood of the day is very thin. If you want to make it stand upright, you will definitely not be able to do it without a certain technique.

I suddenly understood why the master asked me to worship Zhang Zhishan as a teacher. I guess it wasn't because I was often bullied.

Having figured this out, I immediately looked at the master, and found that the old man had already squatted down, as if he was feeling the change of the sky tree.

After about 1 minute, the master walked out with a cane. I don’t know if I’m blind or what’s going on. Cold sweat broke out on the master’s forehead, and even the hand with the cane , trembling slightly.

After the master came out, he said to the three brothers of the Xu family with a stern look: "Your house was not built at the right time, and the gate was not installed at the right time. You can only wait a year later and let the old master and apprentice solve this problem for you. The only way to do it right now What I did was..."

Having said that, the old man glanced at all of us and stopped talking.

I wanted to ask the reason, but I thought the master would scold people, so I didn't open my mouth. Instead, the three Xu family brothers came up and asked, "Master Liu, why did you have to wait for a year?"

The master said: "Jiashangeng, Yishanxin, Maoshanyou, the monkey and the mouse are not here, and the room has been bullied again. I am afraid that your house has been used by others."

To be honest, I don't quite understand the meaning of the master. I thought that the matter would be resolved if the old man came over. Who would have thought that the master would come to such a trick, which made me a little confused, but I didn't dare to ask.

The three brothers of the Xu family, like me, were also at a loss, so they asked the master the specific reason.

The master sighed and said: "The old man is getting old, and there are some things that he can't handle. We can only wait for Chuanzi to become a ghost craftsman, and then this matter can be completely resolved. By the way, within this year, don't let him Anyone who comes near this house, even Nanmen Village will not live there, it is best for the whole village to move out."

"Ah!" I exclaimed, "Master, did you find something?"

He ignored me and walked forward. I was about to follow when the master said, "Close the gate."

I didn't dare to delay, I glanced at the room, and saw that the whole room was full of black ants, my scalp was numb, and I tremblingly closed the door.

The moment the door was closed, I suddenly felt something was staring at me in the room. When I turned my head, I saw a black shadow flashing away.
