The man who came out of the back room was about 2.3 meters tall. His thin body like a dead branch gave people an inexplicable and strange feeling. His hands hung down to the knees, as if he was the kind that often appeared in concerts. A weird pianist, each exposed finger is extraordinarily long, and the slender knuckles seem to have no flesh and blood.
His skin was pale as death, and he was wearing a well-made black suit with a scarlet blood tie, which formed a stark and artistic contrast with the extremely white lining.
No matter how you look at it, he is a standard human being, at least he has conformed to the appearance that a human being should have, but if you look carefully, you will find... no matter how you look at him, he is not a human being.
He has no hair, no eyebrows, not even fine hair, every pore on his body surface is empty, and his whole skin is like a pale plastic shell, which is slightly reflective when standing under the light.
That human-like face should be vivid and full of vitality, but at this moment, it seems that his face is just a dull mask. In his sunken eye sockets, only those black and white eyes reveal a little breath of life But this breath of life was not enough to counteract the ominous smell emanating from him.
He is very quiet.
Discomfortably quiet.
"Have you put on the skin?" Chen Xian looked at this man who made him feel a little weird, and couldn't help but sit up straight on the chair, staring at him intently, "This skin looks... quite suitable."
Hearing this, the man turned his head slowly, stared at Chen Xian silently, and then suddenly showed a dull but bright smile.
"I thought you didn't recognize me!"
"Oh shit! Master Ge's skills are good!" Lu Yisheng couldn't help but ran to Mr. Skeleton, looked him up and down, and then carefully touched the skin on the back of his hand, "The touch of this skin It's exactly like real leather! Why don't you come and try it!"
Seeing Lu Yisheng's frenzied expression, everyone shook their heads and said no, just try it if you are happy!
"What on earth is this made of...it shouldn't be human skin...but the touch is obviously similar to human skin...even the size of the pores is similar..." Lu Yisheng studied the back of Mr. Skeleton's hand with excitement on his face, that kind of enthusiasm His vigor made people look indescribably scared, "Master Ge's skin grafting operation is so powerful... It's almost like plastic surgery... No! It's even more surprising than plastic surgery! This is a fucking work of art!"
Just when Lu Yisheng was amazed, the old liar suddenly came out from the back room. Seeing that he seemed quite tired, he was so exhausted that he couldn't even speak, so he waved his hand and sat aside.
The old liar drank two cups of hot tea poured by Chen Xian, and then he recovered a little bit, but he was still out of breath when speaking. It is estimated that the previous skin grafting operation had put a lot of burden on him, and his face was pale from exhaustion!
"I'm exhausted from operating on you bastard!" The old liar said cursingly, and then stared at the brand-new Mr. Skeleton, "I tell you, if it wasn't for Xiao Xian's sake, I would have to do half of the operation." kill you!"
"What's wrong?" Chen Xian looked at Mr. Skeleton in some confusion, seeing his aggrieved face, he was even more puzzled, "Did he make you angry?"
"Angry?" The old liar sneered, looking at Mr. Skeleton with contempt and anger in his eyes, he gritted his teeth when he spoke, "This grandson is more afraid of pain than a three-year-old child, he screams like a pig when he moves a knife, From the beginning to the end, I have to hold him down to perform the operation, if he cooperates better, I won't be so tired!"
Mr. Skeleton scratched his big bald head. It seems that he has not completely gotten used to the skin on his body, so every expression he makes looks a little stiff, like the kind of robot that can perfectly trigger the uncanny valley effect, even if he is smiling , making people look and feel hairy.
"It hurts." Mr. Skeleton muttered, "I won't cry if it doesn't hurt."
"You fucking dare to talk back?!" The old liar glared.
As soon as the words fell, the old liar started to push people away, waving his hands tiredly.
"You are still young, and you are energetic at night. I can't stand it at my age..."
"Grandpa Ge, is there anything special about his skin?" Chen Xian asked curiously, looked him up and down a few times, and felt that there was nothing special about this skin except for its strong imitation. .
"Don't you know if you let him show his real body?" The old liar said, and then poured another cup of tea and drank it down.
Mr. Skull remembered the previous agreement with Chen Xian, so he subconsciously asked at this moment: "Chen Xian, can I show my real body now?"
Chen Xian nodded.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Mr. Skeleton seemed very happy. On his face, which was so pale that blood vessels could almost be seen, red meridians gradually swelled up, and his black and white eyeballs were quickly covered with spider webs of blood. , accompanied by the sound of ticking water, everyone found that the black suit he was wearing was "melting".
That's right.
Like a lit candle, it melted slowly and methodically, gradually turning into a smelly and pungent bloody water all over the place.
At the same time, the layer of skin on his body changed color silently, from white to red showing a dazzling scarlet hue, and his entire body began to swell continuously, losing weight at a speed visible to the naked eye. Humanoid...
When the old liar saw that Mr. Skeleton's head was about to reach the ceiling, he hurriedly yelled to stop.
"Hurry up and change back! Don't smash my ceiling!"
"oh oh… "
Under the dull eyes of everyone, Mr. Skeleton quickly changed from his real body again, and those skins that seemed to have been dissolved by himself reappeared on his body... as if nothing had happened before.
Chen Xian looked at those suits that could be called "regrown" suits, and then at the smug old liar, and couldn't help giving a thumbs up.
"sharp."
"I wipe it?!" Lu Yisheng exclaimed with bright eyes, "What are these clothes made of? Made in the same factory as Hulk's pants?"
The old liar smiled and lit a cigarette. Seeing that everyone looked like curious babies, he took the initiative to explain.
"That body skin is actually an evil weapon with parasitic properties, but this thing can only affect living people, so it's no problem to use it on it..." The old liar smacked his lips and said, "As for the clothes It’s not a domestic product, it was given to me by a foreign friend two years ago.”
"Foreign friends?" Chen Xian asked curiously, "Why haven't I heard from you?"
"There are still many things you don't know." The old liar smiled, "Although we had a falling out with him because of some things... But overall he is good, this kind of parasitic clothes made of Haitian witchcraft can be given away as soon as you say it ... It's not that I'm bragging to you, this dress is priceless in the market, maybe it can be sold for a higher price than this skin!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xian immediately became nervous, and ran to Mr. Skeleton's side to help him undress without saying a word. After all, what the old liar said sounded too dangerous, and it was obvious that he wanted the lion to open his mouth to kill people!
"Take off your clothes quickly! I'll buy you some new ones when I go back!"
"I like this."
"You are done with it, don't like it, wait for the next life!"
The corners of the old liar's mouth kept twitching. Seeing that Chen Xian was really going to take off his clothes, he couldn't help uttering a few dirty words, but at the same time, he felt a little guilty. Seeing that he scared the child, it seemed that he had His bad style made him fall to the root of his illness!
"Don't take it off, don't take it off! There are girls here!" Xu Yanan hastily stretched out both hands to cover Mu He's eyes, then opened his eyes wide and looked at Chen Xian and the others.
"Xiao Lu, what are you waiting for?!" Chen Xian grabbed Mr. Skeleton's clothes desperately, and shouted without looking back, "This thing seems to grow on the flesh, I can't take it off, come and help me!" I!"
"I'm coming!"
"Don't come here! Don't take off my clothes!" Mr. Skeleton is like a woman who is being molested, trying her best to defend her clothes, and at the same time struggling, "I like this clothes! Don't take off my clothes!" !"
Looking at the people in a mess, the old liar took a few deep breaths, and barely restrained the urge to curse.
"Did I say this was sold to you?"
"Huh?" Chen Xian was taken aback, looked at the old liar strangely and asked, "Isn't it? From your tone, it's obvious that you want to pay a high price to blackmail me."
"My mother..." The old liar coughed a few more times after cursing here, and swallowed all the swear words with gritted teeth, "This is a gift! It's an unconditional gift!"
"Are you kidding me?" Chen Xian asked cautiously.
The old liar nodded and said, no kidding.
"Oh, then you can wear it." Chen Xian let go of his right hand holding Mr. Skeleton's collar, then patted him on the shoulder, smiled and gave him a thumbs up, "You really look good in this outfit." Yes! Upgrading!"
"..."
Everyone looked at Chen Xian silently, and felt that they had never met such a picky searcher in their entire life. This Sichuan opera face-changing trick is really fucking amazing!
"When did you learn to be shameless?" The old liar couldn't help asking, completely unable to understand how a simple and good boy like Chen Xian could become like this.
Hearing this question, Chen Xian carefully recalled it.
"Around 4:32pm on May 30, 2015..."
"Remember so clearly?" The old liar was taken aback for a moment, then asked curiously, "What happened at that time?"
"I was here at that time, yes, in this position..."
Chen Xian pointed to a certain corner of the front hall, his expression seemed to be a little emotional, as if he was telling a distant but unforgettable story.
"You lied to me for two thousand yuan and fifty cents with a defective magic weapon from the factory, and then you lied to me to spend more than six hundred to buy a five-year extended warranty for that magic weapon, saying that you would give me a special gift every month. Maintenance service... As a result, the magic weapon was useless that night."
At this moment, the old liar seemed to be in another parallel space, and his powerful self-hypnosis ability made him "not able to hear" what Chen Xian was saying at all.
"Aren't you going to eat? Why don't you go?"
Chen Xian habitually ignored the old liar's forcibly changing the topic, and still unhurriedly told the answer the old liar wanted before.
"So... I lost my face here, and I have to be shameless when I'm with you."
"..."
