The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 80 Hummingbird Night Patrol
Lu Qian and Zuo Qiuling walked out of the Shearing Moon Gate hand in hand, and returned to the room.

He originally wanted to explore far away, but unfortunately, if the distance is too far, he will lose the spiritual connection with Jing Yanxiu, so he will easily get lost in this world, and the danger is too great.

Therefore, I had to give up.

Jing Yanxiu obediently stood under the Jianyue Gate, and when she saw Lu Qian appearing, she immediately smiled and said, "Sir."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to help him down from the Shearing Moon Gate.

Looking at Jing Yanxiu, Lu Qian said in his heart: "I thought it would be useless if there were too many brides, but now it seems that there are still some uses."

However, a pure vase like Jing Yanxiu is still a broken vase, and Lu Qian is really not very interested.

Jing Yanxiu glanced at Lu Qian's face, and didn't know if she had noticed something. She took a step forward and said, "Master, it's getting late, I'll serve you to bed."

Saying that, without waiting for Lu Qian to nod his head, he started to untie his clothes.

Lu Qian grabbed her hand and said with a smile, "No hurry, there are still things to do."

"Oh……"

Jing Yanxiu let out an "oh" in disappointment, and said, "What does Xianggong want to do, can I help you?"

Lu Qian shook his head and said, "Do whatever you want, as long as you don't leave this room."

After that, he came to the table, picked up the scissors, and started cutting paper again.

Such a big "one lamp" was lit in the room, illuminating every corner of the room, and the light was dozens of times stronger than the original oil lamp.

Lu Qian finally bid farewell to the original little black house.

Jing Yanxiu saw that Lu Qian was busy by himself, her eyes flickered a few times, she walked towards Zuo Qiuling, and said, "Sister, what's your name, how long have you been with your husband?"

Lu Qian didn't care about the two women chatting, but concentrated on cutting the paper.

Not long after, a piece of "Crying Doll" and a piece of "Laughing Doll" appeared in his hand.

These two small paper figurines are about the size of a palm, similar to the "Little Paper Dolls of Dementor".

However, the appearance is completely different from it.

"Crying Baby" is a fat baby in a sitting position, with two braids and only a bellyband on his body.On his chubby face, his mouth was open, as if he wanted to cry at any time.

The "laughing doll" is also in a sitting position, slightly thinner than the crying doll, with a croissant braid and only a red apron on her body, with her mouth wide open, and she looks like she is laughing heartily.

Looking at these two dolls, Lu Qian couldn't believe how powerful they would be.

At least it seems that a harmless appearance to humans and animals is far worse than the "eye-catching white forehead".

Two dolls, each cut two.One pair is used and one pair is put away for spare use.

Then, Lu Qian began to cut the "hummingbird".

Hummingbirds are small and more complicated to cut.It took Lu Qian a long time to finish cutting a hummingbird.

This paper spirit is only the size of his little finger.Small body means that it is easy to hide and will not be easily found.

Moreover, hummingbirds can fly, both in terms of movement speed and vision, which are far stronger than paper-cut bunnies.

Lu Qian picked up the hummingbird that had just been cut, walked to the door of the house, opened the door, let it fly out, and closed the door again.

Then, Lu Qian sat on the stool, closed his eyes, and entered the field of vision of the hummingbird.

The next moment, when he opened his eyes again, there was already a night sky in front of him.

He didn't fly too high. In front of him, there were houses in Zhaojiatun on one side, and the wilderness outside the village on the other.

The night wind was blowing on his body, feeling the buoyancy of the surrounding air, Lu Qian felt the happiness of a bird for the first time.

When will he be able to fly.

Lu Qian controlled the hummingbird, and first went around Zhaojiatun Village.

In the process of circling, Lu Qian discovered that he could use the hummingbird's body as a fulcrum to spread his spiritual perception around, covering a range of more than twenty feet.

This discovery surprised Lu Qian a little.

That is to say, in the future, he doesn't need to enter the hummingbird's field of vision personally, but he can rely on it to project his mental power perception to a long distance and start a search point.

Moreover, this search point can still move quickly.

Although it is not as clear as the eyes, the benefits are obvious.

First of all, he can use the hummingbird to explore around without leaving the field of vision of the main body.

Moreover, with his current mental strength, he can control multiple hummingbirds at the same time and perform searches simultaneously.

While groping for the hummingbird's abilities, Lu Qian searched around the village, but found nothing.

Then, he flew towards the largest courtyard in the village.

That was the house of the village head, Zhao Youde.

From a distance, Lu Qian saw a circle of red lanterns hanging on the surrounding walls in his yard.

When he flew close, Lu Qian realized that these red lanterns were not the same as the lanterns that the villagers held when he got married tonight.

On each lantern, there are two pictures of male dolls with bare buttocks printed on them.

The two male dolls lay facing each other across the lantern, with their buttocks exposed.

However, their faces are also exposed outside, in the same direction as their buttocks. It looks like their necks have been twisted half a circle.

This is not the first time Lu Qian has seen this kind of lantern.

The last time he was at Zhu's house, he had seen a lantern exactly like this kind of lantern.

Now, these lanterns actually appeared in Zhao Youde's house.

Red lanterns hung around the courtyard wall of Zhao Youde's house.

Lu Qian is also very clear about the role of these red lanterns.Hanging on the courtyard wall can prevent ghosts and evil spirits from entering.

Lu Qian took a glance, then flew over the wall, landed on a tree in the courtyard, and looked down.

Many people are busy in the yard.

Lu Qian is no stranger to these people, they are all from Zhaojiatun Village.

Moreover, they just finished eating at Lu Qian's house.

Unexpectedly, none of them went home, but came to Zhao Youde's house.

There are many dark bamboo tubes placed on the ground of the yard.

These bamboo tubes are more than one foot long, one end is thick and the other end is thin, and two bamboo tubes of different thicknesses are set together.

Dozens of bamboo tubes are all ordinary, and their shapes are almost exactly the same.

On one side of the yard, there was a carriage.

On the carriage, there are many sealed wooden barrels.

Beside the carriage, there were seven or eight people, busy around there.

They were divided into two groups. One group held the bamboo tube, while the other group picked up the wooden barrel on the carriage, opened the seal, and holding the wooden barrel, poured some black liquid into the thick end of the bamboo tube.

When a bamboo tube was filled, someone took it away and put it neatly aside.

Then, he took another bamboo tube and continued to pour the black liquid into it.

Lu Qian looked at it for a while, and suddenly understood.

These black liquids turned out to be kerosene.

The so-called kerosene, to put it bluntly, is oil.

The people here don't have the technology to refine oil, and of course they don't need refining, since they can light a fire anyway.

These bamboo tubes filled with kerosene are obvious.

It's the flamethrower.

When in use, they set up a torch at a certain distance from the thick end of the bamboo tube, or directly tied a red-hot iron wire to the bamboo tube.

Then, you only need to aim the active device at the target, push the thin end of the bamboo tube, and the fire oil filled in the bamboo tube can be sprayed out.

The kerosene is ignited by a torch or a red-hot wire during the spraying process, and the fire and oil are sprayed onto the target together.

A beggar's flamethrower.

However, judging by the length of the bamboo tube, the spray distance of this simple fire-breathing tube may not be short.

What's more, once the kerosene is ignited, it is extremely difficult to extinguish.

Therefore, although this flamethrower is simple, it should not be underestimated.

They gather here late at night, what are they doing with these flamethrowers?

Its intention is self-evident.

At this time, a voice suddenly entered Lu Qian's ears:

"This Zhu family is really capable. He can even think of a method like a flamethrower, and he can get so much fire oil."

"Yes, this carload of kerosene is enough for us to light lamps for many years."

"Are you stupid, can this thing light a lamp?"

"Hey, I just feel a little wasteful."

The people in the yard were chatting, only to hear a "squeak", the door of the north room opened, and a person came out from inside.

Lu Qian turned his head and saw that it was the village head of Zhaojiatun, Zhao Youde.
