Midnight Forced Marriage

Chapter 276 The Mysterious Puppet Maker

I listened quietly.

"Think about it, people who do things like this are away from home all the year round. Those at home are worried about those outside, and the people outside are also worried about those inside. So many people bought various talismans and magical instruments to put At home, or on the body. This master Hua specializes in doing these things, now that I think about it, he should be a magician, right? Many of Baixi’s puppet makers are also magicians themselves?”

"Yes." I was still pondering, and I was a little perfunctory to her answer, "... Puppeteer... jade hairpin? Magical artifact?"

"Chi'er, what are you thinking about?" Mrs. Jia interrupted me immediately this time, "Don't think about it, if you don't follow, you will be lost. What about the mist?"

"Yes, yes." I smiled, and hurriedly held hands with her to follow the apparition talisman, but my mind was still spinning, "Mrs. Xiaojia, all the dolls in your family have such a precious purple jade hairpin on them." Do you wear it on your body? It is very valuable, you got it back before you sold it to Mr. Zhou, right?"

"no."

"what?"

"No, no, I mean, I didn't take it back." Mrs. Xiaojia said, "The purple jade hairpin is worn on Xiao Ziwa's body, and I sold it to Mr. Zhou together with the accessories on her body. Because that's how she was delivered to me from Master Hua."

"Eh?" I was taken aback, amazed at this strange value, "Then how much do you pay him for making clay dolls from that master Hua? Does he make any money?"

"I don't know about that." Madam Xiaojia looked indifferent, "Anyway, Master Hua is like that, sometimes he wears gold and silver on my clay doll, and sometimes the gems on his body are enough for me For a lifetime, but the price is the same."

"So weird?"

I really don't understand, is this Master Hua too rich?Still can't count?

"Of course there are others that are ordinary, such as your Xiaohong. Oh, those like Xuanyu are relatively rare, because they can withstand repeated blowbacks. Master Hua specifically told me to use them. On the right person. As for me, I have never felt that any one is right, so I kept it until the end, and the result fell into your hands. However, thinking about it this way, you should not be an ordinary person, so capable, Your dreams are also strange, and you have a backlash. In my opinion, you are already powerful. Maybe, you are the right person that Master Hua said? Haha!"

"Master Hua sells you the same price, so you will sell it at the same price regardless of what is on the clay doll?"

"Of course." Mrs. Xiaojia nodded, "You are a fool!"

"This……"

"Because what I sell is my mana, my talent, which is a gift from God." Mrs. Xiaojia explained, "It stands to reason that what I sell is my ability to help people enter the dream world, and the clay doll is just afraid of guests. It will bear the backlash, so it is given to the guests, so no matter what is on it, it will be corroded in the end anyway."

"Aren't you afraid that people who plot evil will come to you to test your dreams just to get something from your doll?"

"Of course not." Mrs. Xiaojia replied confidently, "Because my dream-testing guests are predestined people, and this clay doll was handled by Master Hua, so of course it won't just fall into the wrong hands. , They are also looking for their own destiny. In fact, I think, it may be that Master Hua wants to save them from rebirth, maybe they are all spirits in the first place."

"what?"

"What's wrong?" Madam Xiaojia was startled by my cry.

I reached out to stop her from continuing to speak, and my mind was spinning fast.Her last sentence just now made me feel like I was pricked by a needle, as if everything would work out at once, everything was not a coincidence, it was just a coincidence, everything was destined...

"I...can I talk now?" Mrs. Xiaojia was a talkative person, and it was impossible to shut her up for a while.

I smiled wryly and nodded, "Mrs. Xiaojia, that master Hua in your village may be a ghost ferry."

"Ghost crossing?"

"Well, a thousand-year-old ghost who specializes in helping spirits or gathering lonely and wild ghosts to go to the underworld and enter reincarnation." If I guessed right, he is a kind of existence like ghost mediums and ghosts. Except for gods and ghosts, they are strictly speaking ghosts, but they do not enter reincarnation.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xiaojia fell into deep thought, and after a while, she said with a look of hesitation, "Samsara, is it really good?"

I shrugged, "For those of us who haven't lived enough, of course the unknown is terrible, and for the gods and ghosts who have lived for a thousand years and have a chance to live longer, this is a catastrophe. But Woolen cloth"

"Huh?" Madam Xiaojia frowned and listened.

"For many lonely ghosts who have to attach to something and cannot move, isn't this a chance for rebirth?"

Mrs. Xiaojia understood, and smiled softly, "Then Master Hua is a ghost who specializes in helping ghosts enter reincarnation... what the hell?"

"Ghost crossing." I looked at her seriously and said, "It's to help lonely ghosts cross. I guess he must be."

"Then Master Hua," Mrs. Xiaojia hesitated, "then he really came to our small village on purpose, and implanted everyone's memories on purpose, and lived in seclusion in the mountains, just to cross the lonely soul here Wild ghost?"

I raised my eyebrows and nodded, "It's very possible."

"It turns out that Master Hua is such a good person."

"All the thousand-year-old ghosts have a mission to wander in the world." I said, "For example, the ghost knowledge and ghost perception I knew before, one can know everything in the world and work for ghosts and gods. But they can make any conditions in exchange , You can also provide information on a voluntary basis. There is also ghost perception. He can help the practitioners or spirits who are practicing in the world to improve their cultivation. It's been decades, but now it's free. And the mediums..."

I told Mrs. Xiaojia in detail the differences in abilities and personalities of the thousand-year-old ghosts I have known.

"It sounds amazing." Mrs. Xiao Jia looked adoring and looked forward to it, "When I go back this time, I must have a good chat with Master Hua. You don't know, he is very nice, gentle and amiable."

"Well, because ghosts have lived in the world for too long, but due to their own abilities and missions, they are all very lonely." I said.

"However, there is still one thing I don't know."

"what?"

"Tell me, how did Master Hua get here?" Madam Xiaojia looked down at herself, "Before I was born, he had lived in our small village for decades, not to mention, I also Can't test dreams. Could it be that he is a prophet?"

"Is it difficult for a ghost of this level to predict the future?"
