The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 36 Mirror Face

Zhu Changqing walked ahead with a lantern, and the three of Lu Qian followed behind him.

When Lu Qian walked to his left, he saw the other side of the red lantern.

On that side, there is also a doll pattern, and the movements are exactly the same as the male doll on the other side.

However, she is a girl doll.

A group of four people left the courtyard gate.

When they got outside, a cloud of very light and thin mist suddenly rose from the ground, slowly approaching them.

Immediately following the mist was a cloud of coldness, surrounding them from all directions.

Feeling the Yin Qi approaching rapidly from all directions, Lu Qian was slightly startled.

He immediately covered his eyes with mental power and looked around.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, Lu Qian's eyes widened in an instant, full of disbelief.

Around them, there are densely packed "people".

These "people" are all naked and thin.

They were male and female, with different shapes, but all of them had deep-set eyes and haggard faces. They were densely crowded together, forming a circle, approaching them.

Looking at the dense and moving heads around him, at that moment, Lu Qian felt that the door he had just stepped through was like stepping into hell.

Subconsciously, he put his hand into his pocket, grabbing a handful of soul-destroying little paper figurines in each hand.

However, the next moment, these dense ghosts stopped in unison when they approached a range of nearly ten feet around them.

It seems that there is a circle of impenetrable barriers that surround them and keep these ghosts out.

Immediately, Lu Qian discovered that this circle of barriers came from the red lantern in Zhu Changqing's hand.

The red light emitted by the red lantern formed an invisible barrier within a radius of more than ten feet around it.

Although there are many ghosts, Guiliuzi can't break through this barrier at all. He can only stand outside, looking at them eagerly like a hungry cat that has found a fishy smell.

Zhu Changqing didn't seem to notice the uninvited visitors around him at all, and walked forward with the red lantern in hand.

The red lantern walked at the forefront, like the bow of a traveling ship, cutting through the waves and opening a passage among the dense crowd of ghosts.

Although Zuo Qiuling and You Shuishan couldn't see ghosts, such a heavy Yin Qi obviously made them very uncomfortable.

Zuo Qiuling already had some experience with the approach of these cold things, and she immediately noticed something was wrong, and turned to look at Lu Qian.

Afterwards, You Shuishan also looked at him.

Lu Qian glared at him immediately, then turned his eyes away.

Seeing this, Zuo Qiuling consciously withdrew her gaze, and followed Zhu Changqing forward.

Then, Lu Qian withdrew the mental power covering his eyes, and quietly expanded his mental power perception to a radius of ten feet.

The next moment, Lu Qian's face became ugly.

There are as many as seven or eight floors of ghosts around them, roughly estimated at no less than a hundred!
At this moment, Lu Qian only has about 150 dementor paper figurines accumulated on his body.

The number of his soul-destroying little paper figurines is just enough to take away the ghosts around him.

How could there be so many of these things suddenly? Did they also receive the invitation letter from Zhu Shiheng?

Zhu Changqing was the first to lead the way, leading them to walk upwards, which was in the direction of Zhu's ancestral hall in the backyard.

And the ghosts around them also followed closely.

Not long after, they came to an open ground, and a long row of walls appeared in front of them.

On this row of fences, a red lantern was hung at a distance of more than three feet and less than four feet.

It was exactly the same red lantern as Zhu Changqing was holding.

From a distance, it looks like a bracelet with a string of red gemstones in series.

Outside the wall, there were ghost heads moving and standing densely, almost filling the large open space.

Seeing this scene, Lu Qian's expression finally changed.

There might be thousands of ghosts in such a dense area!
What on earth is Zhu Shiheng doing to provoke so many ghosts?

Could it be that they heard the news and rushed to snatch the marriage?

Not so much, right?

What happened to these large numbers of female ghosts, who came to snatch the old man?

The gate of the ancestral hall in the backyard was opened, and Zhu Changqing was the first to enter the courtyard.

The three of Lu Qian followed closely.

Although the gate was not closed, there was an invisible door behind them, which blocked many ghosts from the courtyard, and none of them could enter.

In the courtyard and on the steps outside the ancestral hall, people were everywhere.

These are living people.

Most of the crowd wore filial piety, only a few of them wore ordinary clothes like Lu Qian and the others, and they were obviously guests who were invited to watch the ceremony.

Zhu Changqing led them up the steps of the ancestral hall.

The gate of the ancestral hall was also opened, and white silk was hung on the gate, inside and outside the ancestral hall.

Inside the ancestral hall, there is a very wide hall facing you.

In the hall, the lights were bright and crowded.

In the main hall facing the door, a huge portrait hangs on the wall.

On the portrait, it is an old man.

It seems that the old man must be six or seventy years old, with wrinkles on his face.

However, he was wearing a bright red dress, a bridegroom's official attire.

From the looks of it, this is the protagonist of tonight's funeral and also the bridegroom of the wedding, the "new" deceased old man of the Zhu family.

Under the portrait of the rich man, there was a pitch-black coffin.

The feet of the coffin are facing inward and the head is facing outward.On the outside side, the word "Dian" is not pasted, but the word "囍".

It was the first time Lu Qian saw such a dress.

Some people stood on both sides of the coffin.

Among them, there are a few that Lu Qian is more familiar with, such as Zhu Qingfeng, the village head of Zhujiazhuang.

As the chief host of tonight's funeral, he naturally stood at the top.

And behind him, stood a tall man in filial piety clothes.

Standing in the crowd, he was taller than the people around him, standing out from the crowd like a chicken, so that Lu Qian saw him at a glance.

Seeing his face, Lu Qian was stunned.

Almost at the same time, Zuo Qiuling's short exclamation came from beside him.

Lu Qian turned his head to look, and saw Zuo Qiuling covering her mouth with her hand, looking ahead in shock.

Then, she turned her head and looked at Lu Qian.

A pair of big eyes are full of unbelievable color.

At this time, Youshuishan, who was standing on Lu Qian's left, gently pulled Lu Qian's sleeve.

When Lu Qian looked at him, You Shuishan pouted in the direction of the tall man Lu Qian had just looked at, and said in a low voice:
"The tallest person standing over there who looks exactly like me is Zhu Shiheng."

Lu Qian understood who You Shuishan was referring to, he saw him just now, Zhu Family Patriarch, Zhu Shiheng.

However, what Lu Qian saw, Zhu Shiheng's face was not half similar to You Shuishan's.

On the contrary, he looks very similar to himself, almost exactly the same, as if carved out of a mold.

In other words, Zhu Shiheng, who fell in Lu Qian's eyes, had a face like Lu Qian's.

Just now, when Lu Qian suddenly saw his face, he was really surprised.

However, at that moment, Lu Qian understood.

Zhu Shiheng's face is not fixed.

Whoever looks at him, his face is like whoever.

The night before yesterday, in the morgue, the person Lu Qian saw was also Zhu Shiheng.

It was just because he was looking at it from the perspective of a paper-cut rabbit, so what he saw was the face of a paper-cut rabbit.

Now when he saw it with his own eyes, it was replaced by his face.

Lu Qian turned his head to look at Zuo Qiuling, and asked in a low voice, "What did you see?"

Zuo Qiuling was extremely surprised and said: "I... I saw that there was a person who looked exactly like me.

The most outrageous thing is that he is still a man.

It's there, do you see it? "

Lu Qian nodded and said, "I saw it."

Zuo Qiuling was still shocked and said: "This is too strange, my brother doesn't look as much like him as I do——

No, it's too similar, it's almost...exactly the same as my face! "

Lu Qian nodded and said, "That person is Zhu Shiheng."

"Ok?"

Zuo Qiuling and You Shuishan were startled at the same time, and turned to look at Lu Qian.

Lu Qian said: "His face is not a face, but a mirror."

You Shuishan asked suspiciously, "Mirror, what do you mean?"

Zuo Qiuling looked at You Shuishan, then at Lu Qian.

Her eyes suddenly widened.

That expression seemed to be more surprised than when he saw his face just now.

Obviously, she got it.

Zuo Qiuling said in amazement: "This... how is it possible, how can there be... how can there be such a face in the world?"

Yes, in the world, it is impossible for someone to have a "mirror face".

There must be something weird on Zhu Shiheng's face.

At this moment, Lu Qian really wanted to cover his eyes with mental power, and see with his own eyes what kind of secrets this Zhu Shiheng had on his face.

However, when his eyes are covered by spiritual power, they will turn blue, and he can be recognized at a glance.

At this time, Lu Qian didn't want to attract attention.

Therefore, he grabbed Zuo Qiuling's hand with his right hand and You Shuishan's sleeve with his left hand, and led them to lean to the right, fell behind the crowd, and stood behind a pillar.

You Shuishan came over, stood beside Lu Qian, and asked, frowning: "What mirror face, what are you talking about?"
