Seeing the bloody corpse of a demon on the paper, many people on the spot took a breath.
Lin Yi also felt that this trick was a bit strange and couldn't figure it out for a while.
People around were talking a lot.
The child here came again with a tray to ask for reward money.
Yes, I gave away another two cents.
"Thank you for the reward."
Lin Yi originally turned around and wanted to leave after seeing the sword slaying the demon, but his legs and feet couldn't control his movements.
Curiosity drove Lin Yi to stay.
The more I don’t understand, the more I want to see what happens.
No, he passively gave away two cents.
Suddenly, a burst of memories poured out of my mind.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Yi figured out the secret of this trick.
It turned out that the white paper had been processed in advance. First, a pen was dipped in alkaline water and a bleeding ghost shape was drawn on the paper.
After drying in the sun, the ghost will disappear.
During the performance, take out the turmeric water prepared in advance and spray it on the paper.
Turmeric water reacts with alkaline water to produce a red color.
The bloody demon corpse appeared on the white paper.
After figuring out this secret, it’s not surprising at all.
But how did Lin Yi know this trick?
Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh at himself. It seemed that when he was a charlatan, he had some pretentious tricks in his hands.
Fooling people.
That’s why this mystery was solved.
There is no way, Huhu wine and dog skin plaster cannot be sold.
Although the answer to the mystery was solved, Lin Yi was even more unable to leave.
Why?
A wealthy man took out two taels of silver and wanted to see the old man perform the magic rope.
As the saying goes, money can make a difference.
Those who perform tricks are meant to make money from performing tricks. I wish that a wealthy man would do something serious. What’s more, if someone wants to watch, that’s just to appreciate themselves.
After receiving the money, he prepared to perform the magic rope without saying a word.
Before the performance, the old man chatted for a few words, chatted and interacted with everyone.
After a cup of tea, the sky becomes slightly darker.
"Child, bring me the fairy!"
The child hurriedly took out a sack from the side and placed it at the old man's feet.
At this time, the clouds covered the sun.
The old man leaned down, took out a ball of rope from the sack, grabbed the end of the rope and threw it into the air. The end of the rope seemed to be hanging in the air.
Then, the rope rose higher and higher, and clouds and mist poured out of the sky.
The rope seems to reach straight into the sky.
After a while, the rope was finished.
This move has already won the house.
The old man tugged on the rope and said to the child: "My son, I am old and stupid. Come on. Remember to go to the Queen Mother's garden to pick a fairy peach.", given to the noble man who spends a lot of money. ”
After that, he handed the end of the rope to the child.
The child took it, moved his hands and feet on the rope, and gradually rose up like a spider crawling on its silk. The shadow disappeared into the mist.
After a while, a peach as big as a bowl fell from the sky.
The old man wiped it with his sleeve and handed it to the previous one. The rich man who rewarded me with two taels of silver
After taking it, he showed it to the people around him and feasted their eyes on it.
Then he took a sip and it was fragrant. Overflowing, crystal-clear and round, full of juice.
What a good word!
"It is indeed the flat peach from the Queen Mother's garden, it tastes great." ”
This mouthful made many people swallow their saliva silently.
Just when everyone stretched their necks to see what the fairy peach looked like, the originally straight rope Suddenly he fell to the ground as if the thread was broken.
The old man's expression changed and he exclaimed: "Oh no, God has cut the rope, my son is in danger!" ”
As he spoke, a bloody thing fell down.
The old man hurriedly picked it up, and it was the child’s head!
Picked it up and howled. Crying loudly.
“It’s so miserable. The god who was guarding me must have discovered it, and my son is finished. "
Following that, human feet, limbs and half of the body fell from the clouds.
While crying, the old man took out a wooden box and put the child's stumps together. After picking it up into the box, he closed the lid.
Turn around, the old man knelt down facing everyone.
“This old man is the only son who has followed me around to perform. What a good life, but I beg you gentlemen to give me some burial money so that my son can be buried in peace. ”
Everyone who was watching was panicked at this moment. They were really 70% scared and 30% sympathetic, so they donated their money generously.
Lin Yi knew that this trick should be fake, but in his acting skills In front of the lifelike old man, he couldn't help but take out five cents.
The man holding the fairy peach directly took out an ingot and handed it to the old man, accompanying Luo. There were a few tears.
The old man stood up and packed the collected coins, took pictures of the wooden box and shouted: "My son, why don't you come out to thank me!" ”
In the blink of an eye, the lid of the box was opened, and the child jumped out of the box, smiled and saluted, thanked the reward, and was unharmed.
Everyone was stunned.
Lin Yi was also surprised.
At this time, no matter how hard he thought, he could not figure out the reason behind this magic trick. Na!
Lin Yi couldn't help but be in awe of the old man and the young man.
Speaking of it, this father and son who are doing business in the world should belong to the Caimen of the eight gates of the world. .
What are the eight gates of Jianghu?
Jin, Pi, Gua, Cai, Ping, Tuan, Tiao and Liu are all about making a living. means.
Caimen is one of the eight schools in the world, and it is a magic trick.
This sect has a high status among the eight sects and is respected by everyone. After all, they all rely on real craftsmanship to make their meals.
Among the martial artists, the profession with the strictest rules is the Caimen profession.
The magician is called Cai Lizi.
Those who do magic tricks and martial arts are called sticks.
The person who performs foreign tricks is called Se Tang Lizi.
Tricks such as human-headed spiders, mountain spirits and sea monsters, chasing souls for life, etc. are collectively called the fish shed.
The great thing about these colorful buskers is that their tricks are all true and false, false and true, making people confused about the details.
......
Today's performance was over, and the old man was about to close his stall. The crowd suddenly dispersed, and several sturdy servants came out to watch. He looks fierce and has an arrogant attitude.
That look looked at the people around him with a mixture of coldness and disdain.
At first glance, it looks like the dog of a wealthy family.
Among the servants stood a middle-aged man with an elegant face.
This man is completely different from the few servants. He has a strong character and a strong character, and it is easy for people to feel friendly at a glance.
The middle-aged man raised his hands to the old man and the child and said: "I would like to pay my respects below. I am the head of the Su family in the city. The day after tomorrow is the seventy-fourth birthday of my old man. I have come to invite you two to my home. It’s a small gesture to perform at the old lady’s birthday banquet, so please agree.” After saying that, a servant next to him stepped forward and placed a bag of silver in the child’s hand.
This kid has probably never taken so much silver. He held it in both hands and looked at the old man with his eyes wide open.
Look, this is craft money.
You can make money in any profession if you become famous.
At this time, Lin Yi heard someone whispering around him.
"The Su family in the city is the richest man in our city."
"No wonder the Su family has been busy these days. It turns out that the old man wants to live Longevity."
"Strange, I remember that Mr. Su was only seventy-two years old last year."
"What do you know, seventy-two will be seventy-four."
Lin Yi listened to the chattering of several people, and his heart suddenly became bright.
There is a taboo among the people, saying, "Seventy-three or eighty-four, the King of Hell will not ask you to go."
It means that these two years are very unlucky.
In order to avoid loss, when you are seventy-three, you will say you are seventy-four, and when you are eighty-four, you will say you are eighty-five.
So in fact, Mr. Su should be in his seventies this year.
This birthday banquet must be a big one.
......
It is said that the bag of silver given by Manager Fang is enough to keep these two men busy for three months.
The old man hurriedly returned the gift and said: "This noble man, please reply to Mr. Su., my father and I will definitely be there the day after tomorrow! ”
