Chapter 66 The Fourth World Do you want me to accompany you?
In today's Three Realms, although puppet masters are not common, they are definitely not rare.
Therefore, all the disciples of Fumen present here have seen the puppet master before.
It's just that most of the puppets used by those puppet masters have strange looks, some look fierce, some look like ghosts, and some even don't look like humans at all, but various strange-shaped animals.
The puppet masters will make the puppets into what they think is the most suitable, and manipulate the puppets to fight, so the combat power is the top priority, and the appearance is second. Few puppet masters will pay any attention to the appearance.
Probably except for the one in front of me.
Everyone really didn't expect that such a beautiful person sitting here would be a puppet.
And it is also the rumored Xeon battle weapon puppet.
The disciples of the Disaster Sect had lost their words in front of Su Jun countless times. They looked at Su Jun in a daze. Although they didn't feel that the lifeless puppets could understand their words, they still followed Su Jun's intentions and thought about lowering their voices. The voice said to the puppet: "Excuse me, are you willing to go with us to help the human world fight against the army of the demon world?"
The puppet named Yan Yu was still sitting obediently on the stool. After several Fumen disciples looked at him and said these words, he turned his head slightly, looked at them without focus, and frowned slightly. He frowned, but seemed to understand something.
Can you really understand?
The disciples of Fumen couldn't help being a little surprised, and of course they were also curious. They hesitated for a while, and continued to say to Yanyu in a tone as if coaxing a child: "The human world needs you very much. Without you, this battle may not be possible. Many people die, you are a good..."
The disciple looked at Yan Yu's bright and beautiful appearance, swallowed the three words "good boy", and said in another way: "You are a good puppet, you will definitely help us, right?"
Yan Yu still maintained the action just now, she didn't even blink her eyes, and she didn't intend to speak.
Now the disciples couldn't help but began to doubt again, they suddenly felt that Yan Yu's reaction just now was their illusion, this guy couldn't understand what they were saying at all.
Everyone raised their heads to look at Su Juan in embarrassment, but Su Juan watched them seriously when they were talking. Seeing a few disciples looking at him for help, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, try again. .”
There was really no other way, and the disciples couldn't tell because they were suffering, so they could only look at Yan Yu again, and continued to coax.
"If you promise us, you will definitely become a hero in our human world in the future, and everyone will know you wherever you go."
"Yes, yes, beauty and food, we can give you whatever you want."
"The heads of the various sects will personally meet you and present you with various magic weapons. By that time, whether it is you or your master, you will all be able to become the most beautiful figures in the entire righteous way!"
"At that time, not to mention this Yangchuan Mountain, even this mountain range belongs to you! You can have a lot of money, build a big manor on the mountain, and what jewelry and accessories..."
When the last disciple said this, his voice was suddenly interrupted. He quickly looked at the other person who was pulling him, and asked, "What's wrong?"
The man quickly pointed to Yan Yu in front of him, blinked his eyes again, and whispered with his lips: "There is movement!"
Only then did everyone look at the puppet Yan Yu again, and Yan Yu, who had been silent since just now, finally seemed to be told something when he heard the last sentence, and slowly blinked at them eyes, and then nodded.
Although the purpose of several disciples was to get Yan Yu to nod, when he actually responded, everyone still felt a little weird.
The puppet can really move by itself?
Does he have a consciousness of his own?
Everyone couldn't help wondering again, then what was the reason for his nodding just now?
Just when the disciples were hesitating, the puppet's beautiful eyelashes blinked again, and then he slowly uttered a jerky and low voice: "Money, a lot."
Several Disciples of the Disaster Sect: "..."
They also never imagined that this puppet was not interested in all the honors and benefits they mentioned just now, but was only interested in the most useless money for cultivators.
But no matter what, their persuasion this time has at least paid off.
Several disciples breathed a sigh of relief with complicated emotions, and then looked up at Su Jun beside him.
Su Jun kept his word. He had watched them coaxing the puppet hard from just now, and now that the puppet Yan Yu finally nodded in agreement, he certainly didn't have any intention of going back on his word, and immediately said with a smile: "Okay, I've already done it. Understood, since Yan Yu has already agreed, then let's set off and leave here."
It seemed that he actually didn't mean to embarrass the disciples. Seeing him turning around to pack his things, the disciples suddenly felt that the puppeteer simply wanted to use them to tease his puppet.
In any case, the group of them finally embarked on the road to leave Yangchuan Mountain and go to the door of disaster.
As one of the sects with the strongest foundation in the human world, the Fumen is naturally the main force against the demon world this time. All the major sects are now going to the Fumen to gather. Several disciples of the Fumen invited Su Jun to come out of the mountain, so naturally they are also going to gather location.
Although they have many ways to reach the door of disaster as soon as possible, but due to various reasons, their speed of travel is not fast.
The biggest factor in this is probably the puppet.
At first, the disciples of the Fumen only thought that this puppet was a pretty guy with a bad mind, and at most they could add the word "greedy for money". Very troublesome guy.
What surprised them the most was that this puppet turned out to be an extremely squeamish guy.
It was obviously manufactured as a combat tool, but this tool is obviously different from other tools. He obviously doesn't speak very well, he can't speak many words, and he doesn't know how to express his emotions.If it weren't for knowing that this guy was a puppet, the disciples of the Fumen thought he was actually more like an ignorant baby.
I was just born in this world not long ago, so I am very curious about everything I see after I go down the mountain. No matter what I encounter, I want to touch it with my hands, or just bite it with my mouth, from as small as a carriage they use as a vehicle to as big as The beasts and monsters I saw on the road, as long as this guy is interested, he will immediately bite his mouth, and he is the kind who refuses to let go after he bites.
After seeing this scene, the disciples of the Fu Sect naturally did not dare to approach this one again, and kept a safe distance throughout the journey.
What made them feel even more helpless was that, as the maker of the puppet, Su Juan obviously had a preference for the puppet he had made by himself. During the whole journey, as long as the puppet made a request, no matter what it was, he would never accept it. to refuse.
Even along the way, he would teach the puppet various things like a patient elder, as if he meant to raise this guy as a child.
Now there are still about a few days away from returning to the sect. When resting at night, several Fumen disciples finally couldn't hold back their curiosity. At that time, they came to Su Juan's side.
Su Juan was carving a piece of wood with a knife. He didn't know what he was going to do. After hearing the noise, he raised his head, looked at the disciples of Fumen who came over, and asked amusedly, "What's the matter?"
Several disciples tentatively asked Su Jun if he raised the puppet as his son, and how he made such a real-like puppet.
Su Juan listened to their questions, and said in a good-tempered manner: "You should have just come down from the sect not long ago, right?"
The few disciples didn't understand what Su Juan meant, but they nodded honestly: "This is the first time I received an order from Master to go down the mountain to do something."
Su Juan smiled gently: "In the future, don't ask people such questions casually."
Whether it is taking the liberty to ask about other people's private affairs, or inquiring about the puppet master's unique skills, this is a very big taboo.
Now hearing what Su Juan said, several disciples realized what they had done wrong. They couldn't help but feel ashamed, but Su Juan didn't pursue anything, and even gave an answer: "I didn't treat him as a It's my child, to be precise, I actually regard Yan Yu as my companion, or in other words, my savior, we are equal."
Several disciples asked in surprise: "The savior?"
Su Jun himself also found it funny: "I didn't expect it, but it is indeed like this. Before making the wild goose feather, I kept myself locked up on Yangchuan Mountain. I had many unpleasant memories in the past. At that time, I thought, In fact, even if I die on the mountain, no one will care about it."
Several disciples hesitated and didn't know whether they should continue to ask: "After that..."
"Later, someone came to Yangchuan Mountain to visit me. That person was actually your master, Ji Shan, the head of the Fumen." Su Jun's eyes fell on the distance, and Yan Yu was still playing with the flames on the other side. He is not afraid of fire, so the flames fluttered in his hands like butterflies fluttering around.
Su Juan watched him playing with a smile on his face, and then said: "He knew that I had the will to die, but he didn't persuade me, he just asked me to make another puppet for him at the end, a puppet for him. A puppet that incorporates my life's skills."
The reason why Su Jun was asked to make puppets was because at that time, Fumen had already noticed the changes in the demon world, and knew that sooner or later the human world would have this battle with them, so he asked Su Jun to make puppets to fight against them in advance.
Besides this reason, it is also because Ji Shan hopes that Su Jun can continue to live.
He used many reasons to persuade Su Jun to make puppets, and Su Jun finally agreed, because he has never produced a work that collected his life's culmination since he inherited the puppet art. way to save.
So many years later, there was Yan Yu.
Su Jun collected half of the materials for making the wild goose feathers himself, and half of them were provided by Ji Shan. After such a long time of making, Su Jun's mood gradually became calmer for some reason during the process.
He began to feel that surviving didn't seem to be such a bad thing.
What really made him finally decide not to seek death was when the puppet was made, when it opened its eyes.
The puppet's eyes were very dark, but they were shiny inside. It blinked at Su Juan. At that moment, Su Jun saw curiosity about the unknown world in his eyes. He suddenly felt that the puppet should be alive.
From that moment on, Su Juan no longer referred to the puppet as "it". He gave the puppet a new name, and began to try to teach him to live like a human being.
This process was long and encountered many difficulties. Under the control of the master, the puppet could indeed look like ordinary people, but this was not what Su Jun wanted. He hoped that the puppet could have its own consciousness, not He needs someone to control him.
At the very beginning, he encountered many setbacks. Apart from the initial curiosity, the puppet never did anything independently. Su Jun couldn't help but feel doubts about the emotion in the puppet's eyes when he first saw it. Is it hallucination.
But Su Jun firmly believed that Yan Yu was different from other puppets.
Under such firm belief, Su Juan insisted on interacting with his puppet every day, patiently teaching him how to speak and know various things like teaching a child.
And his hard work has indeed been rewarded. The moment Yan Yu raised his head and watched him say his name, Su Jun felt that all his previous efforts were worthwhile, and that he lived in this world, at least It is also accompanied by someone.
In various senses, Yan Yu is indeed Su Jun's savior.
Su Jun told these things to the disciples of Huomen, hiding the past suffering process in the middle, and only exposed it lightly, only when he mentioned Yanyu, his eyes flashed with a gentle smile meaning.
The disciples of the Fumen had only a half-knowledge, but they seemed to be able to understand something from his words.
And after knowing these things, the expressions of several disciples changed when they looked at Yan Yu. Although they still couldn't see this guy as a normal person, they did not completely regard him as a normal person anymore. It is a simple object.
After Su Jun said these words, he nodded slightly to several disciples, then got up and came to Yan Yu's side again.
Yan Yu was already tired of playing with this little flame at this time, he seemed to have discovered that his clothes could ignite a bigger flame, so he began to stretch his sleeves into the fire with great interest.
Fortunately, before he did that, Su Juan reached out to stop his movement: "Be careful."
Yan Yu raised his head, originally his expression was a bit dull, but after seeing that the person beside him was Su Juan, he immediately smiled with his eyes crooked, and rubbed his cheek against Su Juan's palm affectionately.
Su Juan carefully protected him, and pulled him away from the fire. Although Yan Yu itself was indeed made of materials that are not afraid of flames, the clothes on him are definitely not fireproof. Show your work to others without reservation.
He took Yan Yu back a few steps, and said softly, "Are you sleepy?"
Yan Yu blinked, then shook his head again.
Su Jun looked at the surrounding sky, the stars were twinkling above their heads, he turned to Yan Yu and said, "But it's already night, you need to sleep."
While saying this, he noticed that the disciples of Fumen behind him were looking at him hesitantly.
Su Juan understood what they were trying to say, of course he was very clear that puppets don't need to sleep, and of course they can't eat, although on the way, He Yanyu did express a strong interest in what they ate every meal , but Su Juan still couldn't let him enjoy these things.
But even so, he still hopes that Yan Yu will act more like a flesh and blood person in other aspects.
So knowing that the puppet doesn't need to do these things, Su Jun still taught Yan Yu to go to bed every night when it was late, and to wake up when the sun came out, to dress, wash and comb her hair, everything must be done.
Only when they have similar life experiences as humans can puppets really learn how to be real people.
Yan Yu is indeed still a child at the moment, knowing that he should sleep, but he still dawdles and refuses to get into the carriage to rest.In order to avoid sleeping, he even stared at Su Juan silently with his black eyes, deliberately dragged Su Juan's hand and stood there, but refused to move half a step.
Su Juan was both funny and helpless, coaxing the puppet in a low voice. When he noticed that the puppet was holding his hand tightly on his wrist, he seemed to understand a little bit, and asked, "Do you want me to accompany you?"
The puppet nodded without making a sound.
When he could be silent, the puppet seldom made a sound, but his pitiful eyes revealed his emotions.
Su Juan rubbed his head, nodded and led the puppet to the carriage: "Don't be afraid, I will accompany you."
As he spoke, he took the puppet into the carriage.
When the disciples of Fumen saw this scene, they had already forgotten that the puppet was a combat weapon capable of defeating ten thousand with one enemy. Looking at it, they thought it was some pet that would act like a spoiled child.
