He hadn't slept for two days and two nights, and Iron Man couldn't hold it anymore. As soon as Xia Ge lay down, he slept until noon the next day.
When he opened his eyes, Xia Ge could still feel a deep tiredness and a headache that couldn't be awake.
The little puppet lay quietly on the head of her bed, losing the agility of yesterday. The glazed skin that was radiant yesterday has now turned wood-colored, and it is much smaller. Yesterday, it was the size of a palm, but now it is only the size of a palm, one inch. Square, like a puppet doll that a child sculpts and plays at will.
Xia Ge rubbed his temples and got up, picked up the doll, and his voice was hoarse just after he woke up, "…Why is it different from yesterday?"
The system's voice was also lazy, "I said, it is a low-level puppet, and it can only become what it was yesterday when it is driven by you."
Xia Ge held the doll with a bewildered face, "... How do you drive it?"
"{Spirit Controlling Voice}." The system paused, "This skill is something that every puppet master must know. It is the most basic skill for manipulating puppets."
"Host, you must know the same musical instrument."
Xia Ge: "… "
Xia Ge silently put the puppet doll in his pocket, "Ah, let's talk about it later."
They are so poor that they can't afford to eat, so how can I have time to study piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
It hurts.
After a brief tidying up, Xia Ge looked up at the crumbling black sickle above his head, took his identity jade pendant and went out the door.
The system thought that Xia Ge would ask Carpenter Zhang at the end of the village to help take down the sickle, but who knew that this guy would go straight to the mountain as soon as he went out.
System: "...You don't repair the house anymore?"
Xia Ge: "Salary today!"
system:"… "
The salary of 90 copper plates is indeed a huge sum of money for the host.
But shouldn't normal people find someone to fix the house first? !
Xia Ge: "I want to make out with my huge sum of money for a while longer."
System: "..." = =
The House of Internal Affairs, where Danfeng sent the money, was not far away, and Xia Ge arrived not far. Today is indeed the day to send money to the outer disciples, but everyone who should have received it in the morning, and there are very few people who come after noon to increase the workload.
The accountant, Liu Xiaoqian, stared at the account book, with a brush in his hand drawing on the rice paper, his brows furrowed.
"Hey, Brother Liu, I'm here to get my salary."
A clear young voice with a smile interrupted Liu Xiaoqian's thoughts. Liu Xiaoqian came back to his senses, and when he saw Xia Ge, his face suddenly became unpleasant, "Xia Wuyin? Why are you here so late?"
Xia Ge scratched his head and giggled, "I was caught by Senior Brother Ye today to do something, and I didn't come back for a while, so why don't I come to collect the money as soon as I come back?"
The system complained silently, and his host's ability to open his eyes and talk nonsense became better again.
"Forget it." Liu Xiaoqian's expression softened slightly, and many outer disciples were temporarily called to do things for inner disciples. It was no surprise that this reason was reasonable. He was official and made a few strokes in the account book, "Xia Wuyin... three hundred copper coins."
Xia Ge was stunned, three hundred coins
Isn't it ninety coppers
There was still a bright smile on his face, "I'm really bothering you."
Liu Xiaoqian tore the note and handed it to Xia Ge, "Go to the cashier over there to get it."
Xia Ge took the note, took two steps towards the accountant, but stopped.
She turned her head slightly, "...Brother Liu, do you have too much money?"
Liu Xiaoqian snorted, "Whoever counts more won't count as more than you. Yesterday, Senior Sister suddenly changed the system, saying that Shou Danfeng, an outer disciple, is also meritorious, and will double his salary."
He squinted at Xia Ge, "It's cheap for you, go and collect the money."
Xia Ge's eyebrows suddenly rose, and she happily went to the account room to receive the money, and when she left the account room with a heavy copper plate, she called out inexplicably.
"Little puppet."
The system lazily said, "Huh?"
"you're right."
The system is at a loss: "???"
Xia Ge smiled but did not explain.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the young man with the green hair band kissed the purse, his black eyes shimmering with light.
- It was indeed a beautiful piece of light black jade.
Silent, silent flashes.

In the vast wilderness, there are wolf howls.
"A soul-soothing song."
The voice of the girl in blood is gentle and lingering, with a three-point hook, "Singing the best in the world."
The girl was wearing a blood-colored fur coat, half leaning on the roof, a white bone flute was hooked on her hand like jade, the red knot at the end of the flute fluttered in the wind, the moon was like silver, and her eyebrows were slender and demonic. , red lips and fair skin, charming bones.
Some immature voices sounded, and the child wearing half an iron mask knelt down on one knee, "Sect Master, the time has come, you should go to bed."
"Tonight's moonlight is very good." The girl's voice was round and charming, her long and narrow eyes slanted into her temples, she was obviously only fifteen or sixteen years old, but her frequent smiles were all in a bone-chilling style, "I have no sleepiness. "
"Yes." The child answered in a low voice.
Cool night.
The girl pointed like a white onion, and gently stroked the bone flute, as if she was stroking her lover, "How about Lingxi?"
"Lingxifeng found out the news that the demonized puppet that was released was taken by the candidate for the top disciple of Jianfeng..." The child hesitated for a while, "...killed with one sword."
"So." The girl didn't care much, she gently took the bone flute into her arms, her long red sleeves covered the shadow of the flute, and her long eyebrows were slightly raised, "It's the one from the Chu family in Chang'an, Chu Yao. ?"
The child was slightly startled, then nodded, "Yes."
"It's really sad." The girl's voice was soft, "It's such a good mountain... but there are always some people who can't be seen."
Inadvertently, the child trembled, his body trembling invisibly.
"Are you afraid of me?" The girl chuckled lightly, "Afraid of me for what?"
The child was about to answer, but the girl raised her hand slightly to stop him.
She got up slowly, her red lips slightly hooked, "I'm afraid, that's fine."
The child Nuonuo dared not speak.
"Let's talk about it." The girl covered her lips and chuckled, "Lingxishan, who are the rising stars recently?"
The child bowed his head and said, "In addition to Chu Yao, the candidate for the top disciple of Jianfeng, and Chang Lan, who was sent by [Rank] to temporarily take charge of the position of the top disciple of Jianfeng, there is also the new top disciple of Danfeng, Gu Peijiu..."
"Gu Peijiu?"
The wind suddenly stopped.
"I can't see the name of this eldest disciple."
The child was silent.
"Bai Zhi, I'll give you three thousand puppets, you can find a way to kill Gu Peijiu." The girl said gently, "Okay?"
The boy named Bai Zhi trembled slightly, "Yes!"
The night wind moved slightly, light and gentle.
Bai Zhi knelt in the wind, not daring to move.
The girl looked at the bright moon in the sky, and her long and narrow eyes were full of moonlight, wispy and gentle.
After a long silence.
"It's been so long..." The girl rubbed her bone flute and murmured, hunting in red fur, and the silver moonlight in her dark eyes was like the glaciers shattering in the deep winter, "It's time for someone to find the soul of the soul. ' news."
The bones are mournful, and the soul is unparalleled.
The flute sounded leisurely, and above the wilderness, in the eye sockets of countless puppets, along with the flute, a faint blue soul flame suddenly lit up.
The sound of the wolf howling quietly stopped, replaced by the low roar of the controlled demonized puppet.
- It's been so long.
- You should come back.
"I won't let anyone who should be killed."
At the end of the song, the puppets roared, and in the vast wasteland, the soul fire in the eyes of the puppets was terrifying, converging into a vast ocean.
The girl gently stroked the bone flute and said softly, "I must be the first to find you."
- "Only I remember."
I remember how much I love you.
Even if the earth is turned upside down and the soul sacrifices millions, I will guard your mountain, your soul, and your bones, here, waiting for your return.
