Chapter 341
After obtaining the consent of the three.
Wei Hengbo held the umbrella and led Wei Qinglan and the others, walking a distance in the wind and rain, and came to a small courtyard with four paper retainers.
The guards stood under the eaves, scanning around. Clearly, this courtyard was very important.
Wei Hengbo led the three of them halfway around, found a hole in the wall, avoided the guards, and drilled into the courtyard. Pushing open the door, he saw that this was actually the room where the He Fu stored paper!
The left side of the room was piled with uncut yellow paper, as well as a small amount of dyed red and green paper. On the right side was a pile of paper people. These paper people were piled together messily, hands and feet intertwined, eyes dull. In the center was a copper furnace, not knowing what was inside.
Because of those paper people.
The atmosphere in this room seemed a bit eerie, making the three who came in later feel a chill down their spines.
Wei Qinglan asked Wei Hengbo: "Brother, why did you bring us here?"
Wei Hengbo put down the umbrella and smiled honestly.
"After I crawled out of the soil, I discovered that the biggest obstacle to our exploration in the He Fu is those ubiquitous patrolling paper retainers."
"So I thought, is there any way to deceive the perception of those paper retainers?"
"I conducted some tests, and I really found a way. Those paper people actually judge enemies and friends based on skin. Except for a few on the 'white list,' other people will be regarded as enemies by the paper retainers if they have human skin."
"So... as long as we paste a layer of paper on ourselves, won't that be fine?"
Wei Hengbo picked up a piece of red paper: "There is rice paste in that furnace. As long as we find some paper to wrap our bodies, we can deceive the perception of those paper guards and come and go freely in the entire He Fu!"
After listening to Wei Hengbo's words, Wei Qinglan fell into deep thought, while Su Xuan and Li Xian were a bit conflicted.
Wei Hengbo's words made sense. If they could really come and go freely in the He Fu, the help to them would be immeasurable.
But one must know.
This Fudi has a Paper Immortal! Will wrapping a layer of paper on oneself attract the attention of the Paper Immortal, or simply be controlled by the Paper Immortal?
Su Xuan raised his own doubts.
Wei Hengbo was a bit speechless.
"You have also fought with paper retainers. Didn't you notice that the inside of the paper pasted on the paper retainers has special incantations drawn on it?"
"Only paper with incantations will be controlled by the Paper Immortal, so I brought you here. The paper here is all new paper, and there are no incantations on it!"
"Incantations?" Su Xuan was stunned: "Are there?"
Li Xian frowned and thought hard: "It seems there are."
Su Xuan couldn't refute, so he raised the second question: "Since this method is so good, why don't you use it yourself?"
Wei Hengbo rolled his eyes.
"Do you think pasting paper on your body is simple? You have to brush rice paste evenly first, then wrap the paper on it. You have to ensure it's secure without affecting movement. This is not something one person can do."
"If you really don't trust me, just paste paper on me first. I'll go find those four paper retainers outside and test the effect in front of you, and you'll understand everything."
With things said to this point.
Su Xuan and Li Xian had to believe it.
Next, Wei Hengbo found a table and lay down. Su Xuan and Li Xian prepared to get paper, but just as they took a step, they were pulled by Wei Qinglan.
"Don't go over, he's fake!"
Su Xuan and Li Xian were suddenly covered in cold sweat.
Although Wei Qinglan didn't state the evidence, and they didn't see any flaws, this matter concerned life and death. As long as someone pointed it out, they had to believe it, not to mention the person pointing it out was Wei Hengbo's sister.
Wei Hengbo was full of confusion: "How could I be fake?" "You've been holding an umbrella all the way, but you never thought of shielding me from the wind. My brother would absolutely never do such a thing!"
Hearing this reason, Su Xuan was a bit speechless.
"Your brother has an injury on his side, he can't get wet."
Wei Qinglan shook her head and said through gritted teeth: "You don't understand sister-complexes. Even if my brother is injured himself, he would definitely prioritize taking care of me. Of course, I would also consider him and refuse, but he wouldn't have no reaction at all!"
This reason.
To others, it sounds a bit unreasonable.
But to Wei Qinglan, it already counted as ironclad evidence.
Wei Qinglan continued: "Although the words are a bit harsh, my brother is actually very stupid and likes to use force more than his brain. When he is with me, he will use his brain, but once he is separated from me, his brain only has finding me quickly..."
"The paper-pasting theory you mentioned is very perfect, and I can't find any points to refute, but its biggest loophole is... this theory shouldn't have been discovered by my brother!"
The four people in the room were silent.
Wei Hengbo sighed: "I didn't expect you to see me like this. This really disappoints me. Do you remember when I was a child, I took you to the outskirts of the city to steal sweet potatoes? Do you remember you once provoked a wolf dog, and it was me who was bitten twice before saving you..."
One past event after another was brought up, and every sentence hit Wei Qinglan's soul.
Wei Qinglan's ears turned red.
These things only they, the brother and sister, knew. This Wei Hengbo couldn't possibly be fake. She had wronged her brother...
Wei Hengbo became more and more excited as he spoke.
"I've been so good to you, why do you still suspect me? Do you want me to cut my heart out for you to believe your own brother?"
Wei Qinglan was ashamed and immediately wanted to apologize: "Brother, I..."
Wei Hengbo stretched his hands towards his chest, and accompanied by a teeth-aching tearing sound, he tore his chest open, revealing a bloody, beating heart! "Look, my heart is beating!"
Seeing this scene.
Wei Qinglan felt a tightness in her chest, her body swayed twice, and her hair almost exploded.
She suddenly realized a reality even more terrifying than Wei Hengbo being fake, and that was that this brother was real...
Blood stained the abdominal cavity, and Wei Hengbo was still full of madness.
"I did all this for you! The Paper Immortal promised that as long as you paste your whole body with paper, we can be together forever!"
"Come on, Qinglan!"
"Don't you want to accompany your brother?"
Wei Hengbo's ribs were like an opened cabinet door, closing and opening with his movements, stimulating the eyeballs of Wei Qinglan and the other two in a near-extreme way!
*Whoosh! * Su Xuan's body flashed, easily bypassing to Wei Hengbo's back, and the short dagger in his hand cut towards Wei Hengbo's throat.
Whether it was true or false, only by solving this Wei Hengbo would they have a way to survive! But Wei Hengbo's reaction was faster than his. The Yanling Saber flashing with blood light stabbed out from under his armpit, straight at Su Xuan's chest, while Su Xuan's body suddenly rose in a straight line strangely, dodging this fatal saber!
Wei Qinglan looked at the three people entangled.
Her trembling hand gripped a talisman.
She couldn't hesitate any longer.
