Chapter 167 Human Skin Turns into Paper
  Half an eye?
  What a strange title.

But upon hearing it, he is a very good fortune teller.

Why do you feel this way?

Is it because many fortune tellers are blind?

Thoughts flashed through my mind, and I heard the sound of a glass of water shattering from Uncle Du’s cell phone:

"It's because I didn't give him the money, it's because he wanted to add money at last minute!"

“In this life, I’m the only one who yells at others for more money. How can anyone else yell with me?”

The noise on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, as if he had finally recovered from the scolding, and there was a flurry of chatter:
  "Forget it, keep the situation stable, I'll go find Half Eye immediately."

"Ah Chi, Ah Chi's godfather will be here soon."

The call was hung up, and Uncle Du was obviously a little annoyed. He made a few more calls, ordered a few things that snakes would be afraid of, and then asked the other party to send them up the mountain.

I sat on the ground and took a few deep breaths before focusing on the safe in my hand. The safe was completely rusted and broken after leaving Li's abandoned building.

The iron box, which was originally difficult to cut open with a sword, would fall out with a slight touch of hand.

Without much hesitation, I picked up the knife and knocked open the corner of the safe, revealing the contents.

Inside was a stack of pamphlets and a small box.

The small box was only a quarter of the size of a palm. Inside was a gold ring with '李' engraved on the surface. It looked quite heavy.

This is obviously a so-called family inheritance, and I don't intend to look at it any more. I put the things back into the ring box and began to look carefully at the stack of important booklets.

It is not appropriate to call it a booklet, because it is not bound into a book, but only some scattered papers.

On the top are two pieces of leather paper with excellent craftsmanship. Perhaps due to lack of maintenance, there are some signs of drying and cracking.

I twisted it, but I couldn't tell what animal the paper was from just by the feel of it.

But there was a slight odor on the paper, not like the stench of cattle, sheep, pigs, etc., but like a faint fishy odor.

Maybe it was the skin of some kind of reptile.

I secretly made a judgment in my mind and continued to scroll down. They were all letters and evidence of exchanges. I glanced at them briefly and found that they were all favors between Regal Li and some politicians in the government at that time.

The reason why it was put here is probably because Father Li thought it was a leverage and a threat?

After flipping through the letters, there was another piece of tightly rolled up leather paper.

I carefully took out the paper, but when my fingers touched the paper, I trembled for no reason. The reason was very simple——

This paper is very smooth.

Paper is usually very smooth, but this one is obviously different. It feels 'delicate' and 'silky' to the touch.

Based on what I have learned, it is difficult for me to describe the feeling, but I can be keenly aware that the production process of this paper seems to be different from the previous two pieces of leather paper.

Even the year of production is different.

The pages of this vellum are all yellowed, and the edge is a row of holes used to hold the vellum open when making the vellum.

The holes were obviously considered family heirlooms, and they were not deliberately cut out, but retained.

This is also the largest piece of paper in the entire safe. I spent some time and spread a layer of large white paper on the ground before completely spreading it out.

The moment I opened it, I finally knew what this thing was. At the edge hole at the end of the paper, if you look closely, there are even remnants of the tip of the chest.

This is clearly a piece of human skin!
  It’s still a piece of human skin paper with the head and tail removed by the maker’s superb skills!

On the surface of the human skin paper, that is, on the 'human back', there are also tattoos to spread the leather-making method!

The writing on it was ancient and I couldn't recognize a few words, but it didn't make my scalp numb at all.

No wonder the texture is different from the previous two pieces of leather paper. It turns out to be human skin.

Is there any animal skin in this world that can compete with human skin?

No, there are no other animals, only humans!
  Among the craftsmen who make leather paper, in their search, some people will definitely cross that red line.

The 'leather-making techniques' recorded on human skin paper may also be a hint to the inheritors that they can use human beings.
  But fortunately, it seems that Fuhao Li has never done these things in his generation.

The leather paper that can be put into the safe is obviously an outstanding work that is highly valued.

But the material of the two pieces of leather paper had a fishy smell, so it obviously didn't cross the line.

Otherwise, what appears in Li's abandoned building may not be the snake demon, but countless human souls.

I breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the tattooed human skin paper a few more times. I felt a little suffocated, so I immediately rerolled the human skin paper, tied it tightly with the empty cloth bag I brought with me, and put it away properly.

I have got what I am looking for, but things are far from being completely relaxed. Uncle Du has been busy making arrangements and ignored the situation on my side.

I really wanted to step forward and ask where I could help, but then I heard the cell phone that Uncle Du had been holding tightly in his hand ring again.

It was still the voice of the Eleven Taibao, who was very anxious and shouted in a series of overlapping voices:
  "Come on, come on, where can you find how many people there are? Go in now, I'll be here right away!"

"Half Eyes said, Ah Chi and Ah Chi are going to have a hard time this time. The longer they are entangled with things, the more dangerous they will be. Just like a lamp will dry up when the oil runs out, the later it gets, the more trouble will happen!"

I was startled and immediately came to my senses——

What the half-eyed master said is absolutely correct.

Snakes are venomous, but the more entangled they become, the more dangerous they become! ?
  Uncle Du was also anxious. He lost his previous calmness and opened his mouth to curse:

"I've even found a few of them and I'm looking for a ghost!"

"There aren't many people in your hall, and the most powerful Ah Shi is in there. Who else can I find? It's just me and Liu Bai here. Don't talk nonsense. Come here quickly. Together, we should be able to get in." Bring people out.”

The phone hung up again. I pondered for a few seconds, and my eyes fell on the shadow puppet box and newspaper next to the abandoned safe not far away.

After only a few dozen breaths, I made a decision:

"Uncle Du. You wait here until Uncle Eleven comes over. I'll go in first to explore."

"What!?"

Uncle Du didn't even think about it and immediately rejected it:
  "It's very dangerous inside now. If you were able to escape just now, you must have wasted your efforts. Now if you go in alone, won't you die?"

I'm a little embarrassed to say that my physical strength is not very good:
  "Actually, it didn't take much effort. I just walked around, looked at some things and then came out."

"Uncle Eleven also said that the longer we wait for them, the more dangerous they will be. Your poison will be of little use in front of natural enemies. I might as well take a chance that the snake demon will infect the fake Miss Li's blood, and his behavior should be similar to that of the fake one." Miss Li is similar, she is a soft-hearted and emotional person. No, a snake."

"I thought about it carefully. I couldn't beat the Tzu Ching girls in the past, but I can't be a coward for the rest of my life."

"I'm going to try and see if I can bring them out."
