Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin
#108 - Slender figure
Although this villa looked very grand from the outside, Zhang Jingtian discovered its problems as soon as he walked in.
It was too gloomy inside, and there wasn't a single sound.
If the man's child wasn't still sitting on the sofa, he would have suspected that this villa was a deserted haunted house.
The man sighed and explained, "Ever since everyone started having nightmares, my servants have all run away."
Zhang Jingtian was taken aback and asked, "Didn't they have dreams?"
Before the man could open the door, Zhang Jingtian summoned Loulan first.
Just in case anything unexpected happened.
"She won't scare you, will she?" Zhang Jingtian asked.
The man shook his head, "No, she, she is very beautiful, is she also your Heroic Spirit?"
Zhang Jingtian rolled his eyes in his heart. These people are really something, they are afraid of Heroic Spirits and Card Makers.
But when they see that they are beautiful, they completely forget their fear.
"Yes, but she is not a human, but a kind of ghost." Zhang Jingtian said in a low voice.
At this time, Loulan also cooperated and showed a ghostly face.
The man's heart skipped a beat when he saw it, and he shut his mouth.
He opened the door to the room. Inside hung a painting, and other than that, it was empty.
Seeing this, Zhang Jingtian could also be sure that the problem in this house was obviously this painting.
He thought it was some other item.
Zhang Jingtian walked forward, like a viewer, carefully examining the painting in front of him.
He had to admit that the painting skills of this painting were actually quite good.
The picture shows a mountain road, which looks like a country path.
If it was just this path, this scene would actually be quite beautiful.
However, on this path, there is now a long shadow cast on the road.
It makes people feel that the owner of this shadow is a terrifying monster.
"What did the monster you saw in your dream look like?"
Zhang Jingtian knew why he wouldn't be found by the monster just by looking at the painting, because the painting didn't have its appearance at all, only its shadow.
"A, a person." The man also knew that although the person in front of him was young, he was a genuine Card Maker.
If he couldn't solve it, he could only ask the association for help.
"A man, very tall and thin, and wearing a hat, he only shows half of his face each time. When he opens his mouth, the teeth inside are sharper and sharper than a tiger's..."
"Every time he is about to get close to me, I smell a disgusting, damp smell, like the smell of a stinky ditch after it has just rained."
Zhang Jingtian was silent for a while, not saying anything more.
This thing reminded him of a foreign folklore legend, the Slender Man.
But how could it appear here?
"Where did you buy this thing from?"
The man was stunned, not expecting Zhang Jingtian to ask him this.
But he still told the truth:
"I, I bought it from a friend. He seemed to have bought it from the black market, so I probably can't find the source now."
Zhang Jingtian nodded: "Okay, then I'll see if I can burn it directly."
When Zhang Jingtian reached out to grab the frame, a strong chill suddenly struck.
He felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar.
This cold and humid aura made Zhang Jingtian unable to breathe.
At this time, Loulan shot directly.
She directly took the painting from Zhang Jingtian's hand and tore it in half with force.
However, what Loulan didn't expect was that after being tossed around like this, the painting actually reassembled itself.
"So magical?"
Zhang Jingtian was obviously not convinced, so he simply asked Loulan to take it and throw it into the stove.
Watching the portrait being burned to ashes, Zhang Jingtian smiled and was about to praise himself, but the man said tiredly: "Look there."
Zhang Jingtian returned to the room and found that the painting was already hanging in its original place.
"This..." Zhang Jingtian understood that to destroy this painting, he could only kill its main body in a dream.
Other methods are useless.
"I've tried it," the man said weakly, "This method is useless."
Hearing him say this, Zhang Jingtian smacked his lips and then showed a helpless expression.
"Then I can only wait for him to come into my dream tonight."
But the man now looked at Zhang Jingtian in a pleading tone: "Why don't you sleep now... If it's later, I'm worried that he, he will come into my and my son's dreams first, and we will die."
Zhang Jingtian also understood the client's feelings, so he nodded and lay down in the guest room.
Strangely, Zhang Jingtian, who usually had to think wildly for a long time before falling asleep, fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow today.
And unlike before, he was not aware that he was in a dream when he was dreaming.
But now, Zhang Jingtian could be sure that he was in a dream.
He was also walking on a country path, just like the man said.
The golden afternoon sunlight shone on the mountain road. He stepped on the flying leaves. If he didn't think about that strange figure, this place would actually be quite beautiful and pleasant.
But soon, Zhang Jingtian heard the sound of running coming from behind him.
He turned around and saw a slender man, much taller than himself, approaching him with his very uncoordinated long legs.
But Zhang Jingtian didn't run, but stood there, waiting for the other party to arrive.
He snapped his fingers and confirmed that he could summon cards even in his dream, so he felt relieved.
As long as this trick is still there, he doesn't have to worry about himself.
Seeing that the other party was about to get close, Zhang Jingtian had already summoned Ying Ning.
The fox demon glanced at the figure in front of him and sneered:
"What a monster so ugly, dare to chase my master? I will let you know what it means to have no return!"
When the figure was about to get close, Zhang Jingtian really felt the cold and humid feeling that the man said.
But he found that this was not simply a physical sensation, but more like a debuff, because his hands and feet were slowly solidifying at this time.
Even Ying Ning, her speed was significantly reduced.
Zhang Jingtian immediately became serious. This guy is at least a Purple Card level, he can't be giggling.
So he immediately summoned Loulan and Huapi, and he sat on the sedan chair and flew into the air.
