In the white matter shop.
Su Mo looked at the dozens of paper figurines in front of him, formed a seal, and softly called out,""Retract!"
These paper figurines began to shrink silently, and finally, they were only the size of soybeans, lying quietly on the ground.
"Interesting!" Surprise flashed in Su Mo's eyes, and his hand seals changed.
In just an instant, those paper figurines that were the size of soybeans returned to their normal size.
This was the Pean-to-Army Technique rewarded by the system!
"It's much more convenient."
Su Mo smiled.
Although his Paper Figurine Spirit Technique was mysterious, as long as he was given time, coupled with the Shifting Form, he would be almost invincible.
However, it had a fatal weakness, which was that it required time.
It was still fine in the white matter shop as there were paper figurines everywhere. However, if he went to other places in the future, he would not be able to carry the entire white matter shop on his back.
Su Mo casually turned the dozens of paper figurines into the size of beans and put them in his pocket before walking towards 9th Uncle's memorial hall.
In the mortuary.
"Junior Brother, you are in a hurry to leave again. Can't you stay for a few more days?”Ninth Uncle advised.
Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng, who were beside him, also echoed,"That's right, Uncle-Master. In order to celebrate peace, Old Master Ren specially invited an opera troupe from the provincial capital to set up a stage to sing a big show tonight. Stay for another night and leave tomorrow after watching the show.”
Faced with the two people's urging to stay, Si Mu's attitude was quite firm. He carried the bag on his body and said,"I have to leave. This time, all the customers I brought were burned by Junior Brother Su. The bosses are still waiting. I have to leave quickly and explain to them door to door and discuss compensation.”
"Senior apprentice-brother Four-Eyed is blaming me.”A burst of laughter rang out as Su Mo walked in wearing a Chinese tunic suit.
"Junior Brother Su." The four-eyed man shook his head with a bitter smile." How can I blame you? It's my responsibility to kill the demons. As for my customers, they're just unlucky. I still have to go back and prepare the money, so I won't stay any longer."”
"Junior brother, do you have enough money? I still have some savings here."
"Forget it, Senior Brother." "I know what you have. Even if you took out all of it, it wouldn't be enough for me to compensate a customer."”
Upon hearing this, Ninth Uncle also revealed an awkward expression. He coughed a few times and did not say anything else.
He had learned the art of slaying demons and devils, and he had always lived in Ren Town. Whenever his neighbors asked for help, he would help them out.
Since everyone was too familiar with each other, they were too embarrassed to ask for money. They would take as much as they were given and would not say anything if they were not given.
As a result, he had not saved much money over the years.
"Senior Brother Lin, Junior Brother Su, we'll meet again.”Four-eyed bowed to the two of them and walked out.
Seeing Si Mu leave, Ninth Uncle shook his head and went to the backyard.
Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng, on the other hand, became lively and said to Su Mo,""Martial Uncle Su, I heard that Old Master Ren spent a lot of money this time. The troupe he hired is famous in several nearby provincial cities. If he goes a little later, I'm afraid there won't be any seats left.”
"I have to take care of the shop for Aunt, and Wencai has to clean the mortuary. So, Uncle-Master Su, can you go and ask Old Master Ren to prepare a few good seats for us in advance?”
"If the two of you had spent half of your time on cultivation, you wouldn't have been unable to pass the Daoist priest's test and receive the talisman.”Su Mo knocked Qiu Sheng's forehead and left.
"Uh, Uncle-Master Su Su?" Qiu Sheng shouted from behind.
Su Mo waved his hand and said without looking back,""When I see Old Master Ren, I will mention it.”
In this era, people did not have many entertainment activities. Other than watching movies and listening to music, there were gambling dens and brothels. Therefore, such a famous troupe was naturally very rare.
As for Su Mo, he had experienced movies and television dramas in his previous life, so he was naturally not interested in these dramas.
.........
In the house beside the Ren residence.
This was originally the place where the Ren family's ancestors used to entertain guests. Later, as time passed, the Ren family gradually declined, and the number of guests who came to ask for an audience decreased.
In the end, it was abandoned.
Now, after Old Master Ren instructed the servants to clean up, he let the troupe from the provincial capital stay here for the time being.
Bai Yang, this was the name of the troupe, meaning that it would not fall.
At this moment, people were coming and going in the courtyard. The actors were sitting in front of the dressing mirror, carefully examining their makeup and costumes.
The foreman was an old man in a mandarin jacket. He instructed the actors beside him,"You have to sing well tonight. You have to bring out all your strength. On the surface, the mayor of Ren Town has the final say, but the real local emperor is Master Ren! As long as we can please him, we will definitely benefit from it!”
"Understood." They nodded heavily.
"By the way, where's Little Lychee?" The old foreman suddenly frowned.
"She's still in her room dressing up." A young girl replied with dissatisfaction,"Hmph, he's the only one who puts on airs all day. Every time, he always comes out last. He's so mysterious.”
Little Lychee was the pillar of the Bai Yang Troupe, and he was the one who made the entire troupe famous.
It was just that this person was cold and unsociable. In addition, his treatment was obviously much higher than others. When they were assigned rooms, he was even assigned to a room specially used for personal dressing. Naturally, it caused a lot of dissatisfaction.
The old man glanced at her but did not say anything. He only said softly,"I'll go urge him."
In the dark room.
A graceful figure was sitting in front of the mirror, holding a handkerchief and slowly wiping her mouth. The handkerchief was covered in red marks, as if she had applied too much lipstick.
However, there was a man lying at his feet.
The man had been dead for a long time. His eyes were wide open, and his face was filled with fear and pain, as if he had seen something terrifying before he died.
He continued reading.
The man's stomach was torn open, and all his internal organs were gone!
