Chapter 348 Finally couldn’t help but take action
Pei Anzhu lived a very regular life in the theater.
Every morning after breakfast, I go to the basement to learn how to carve shadow puppets. At noon, a waiter brings me food. I continue carving shadow puppets in the afternoon. After the evening, I go upstairs and wash up and rest after dinner.
Basically, Pei Anzhu was under the surveillance of Old Man Zhu all day long, and she couldn't do anything else even if she wanted to.
Only at night, after the entire theater was asleep, could she contact Shen Yueran and Officer Du, and her contact was to go out to meet directly, not through mobile phones and other tools.
Because at night, the entire theater seems to be in another space, and there is no signal at all for mobile phones.
More importantly, the dinner prepared by the theater contains medicine that can make people sleep. As long as you take it, you can basically sleep all night without waking up.
Such means are used to prevent people in the theater from contacting the outside world.
Especially for a person like Pei Anzhu who was chosen to be skinned. Once people notice the clues and leak the information, the entire theater will be exposed.
But fortunately, these methods are of no use to Pei Anzhu.
She is a powerful person in the Nascent Soul stage, and the poisons and poisons of the earthly world will basically have no effect on her; and entering the supernatural space in the theater is just a deception that she can see through at a glance.
So, in the dead of night, she would leave the theater, go to the hotel to meet Shen Yueran, and then tell her and Officer Du the news she had found out during the day, so that they could respond at any time.
Today, Pei Anzhu said to Shen Yueran:
“I have been living in the theater for three days and two nights. I guess that old man Zhu may attack me soon. Those of you outside should also be prepared.”
"Don't worry, Officer Du has mobilized a lot of helpers to closely control the other six places." Shen Yueran nodded, "As long as you take action over there, all Zhu's stores here will be closed. "
Pei Anzhu nodded, discussed a few more words with Shen Yueran, explained the next plan, and then returned to the theater.
Early in the morning, Pei Anzhu went to carve shadow puppets as usual.
Although she pretended to be a beginner, she couldn't be too stupid. Four days was enough for her to gradually carve out a shadow puppet that was barely decent. Even Old Man Zhu wasn't as fast as she was when he first started learning.
Old man Zhu was a little surprised when he saw Pei Anzhu's progress:
“You are really talented at carving shadow puppets. I wish I could have met you earlier, but it’s a pity...”
"What's the pity?" Pei Anzhu asked with a smile.
“It’s a pity that I can’t accept you as my disciple.” Old Man Zhu said.
Pei Anzhu didn't speak anymore, but she thought that it was a pity that Old Man Zhu said it. It should be a pity that she was going to die soon. She was so talented, but she was about to die.
After carving shadow puppets for a day, Pei Anzhu had dinner as usual, washed up and went to bed.
As she expected, Old Man Zhu took action.
In addition to the drug, her dinner also contained a poison, a poison that makes people die quietly in their sleep. After ordinary people take it, they will die within three hours.
Unfortunately, this poison has no effect on Pei Anzhu.
When everything was silent, Pei Anzhu heard footsteps coming from the door. She turned her consciousness and saw Old Man Zhu opening her door and walking in together with the waiter who had led the way.
She quickly performed a breath-containing technique, closing her five senses and seven orifices, allowing herself to enter a state of suspended animation.
In the world of cultivation, there are many techniques that can create a state of suspended animation, and the Breath Condensation Technique is just one of them.
Old man Zhu entered the door and first probed Pei Anzhu's nose. When he saw that he was not breathing, he turned on the light and looked at Pei Anzhu's face. He saw that the other person's face was pale, and he nodded with satisfaction:
“Yes, the skin this time is very good, young and beautiful, and has money, which can bring us more benefits.”
"Zhu Jin, go and move her to the basement." Upon hearing this, the waiter named Zhu Jin lifted Pei Anzhu off the bed like a sack, and then walked towards the basement.
Pei Anzhu silently pretended to be dead.
In fact, from the day she entered the theater and saw the waiter and Old Man Zhu, she could tell from their faces that they had a close relationship and that they should be related. However, the waiter kept saying that he was a part-time worker, so she did not tell the truth.
After all, she wanted to take a long-term approach to catch the big fish, and wanted to see what these two people wanted to do.
Now, the purpose of the two people is finally exposed.
They took Pei Anzhu to the basement and lay on a single bed.
This kind of bed is just about the width of one person, just like the kind of bed where customers lie down in a beauty salon while washing their faces.
“Zhu Jin, bring me my tools.” Old Man Zhu ordered.
Soon, there was a clanking sound, and Zhu Jin came over holding a box with a set of skinning tools inside. Old man Zhu put on his gloves and apron, picked up a knife, and pointed at Pei An Zhu gestured with his head.
After confirming the position, he directly lowered the knife and pressed hard.
According to Old Man Zhu’s idea, his first cut should be to break the skin on the head, and then pour some mercury and other things into it so that the human skin can be shed completely.
But unexpectedly, his knife failed to touch Pei Anzhu.
Just five centimeters away from her head, there seemed to be some invisible transparent barrier blocking his knife, preventing him from harming Pei Anzhu at all.
Old man Zhu tried a few more times and was sure it still didn't work. Suddenly he thought of something and shouted loudly:
“Zhu Jin, take the shadow puppets on the wall and leave!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Jin went to collect the shadow puppets hanging on the wall, but it was already too late.
Pei Anzhu opened his eyes, sat up, grabbed the knife from Old Man Zhu's hand, knocked him away with one palm, and threw him into the corner of the wall a few meters away, vomiting blood.
Immediately afterwards, Pei Anzhu took out a bunch of talismans, fluttered his fingers, and attached all the talismans to the hanging shadow puppets in conjunction with spells and spells.
Afterwards, screams were heard one after another. Those dark ghosts who were born with intelligence and were fed by humans could not make a move under her talisman, and they were instantly wiped out.
When Old Man Zhu saw this scene, he was filled with hatred:
"My decades of hard work!! You...you actually killed them, I will fight you!"
After saying that, he got up, picked up the carving knife that was at hand to carve shadow puppets, and rushed towards Pei Anzhu, but before he took two steps, he was trapped by Pei Anzhu with a talisman.
Zhu Jin is also trapped. He has taken down several shadow puppets, but without exception, all the dark ghosts inside are dead.
Upon seeing this, Pei Anzhu walked over and tied them both up with ropes:
“Have you harmed many people with this trick over the years?”
"Bah!" Old Man Zhu stared at her fiercely, "Young girl, you have some skills. I didn't expect that my old man would step into the coffin at such an age, but he would capsize in the gutter. You can kill or cut him into pieces, but I can't do anything. I'll tell you!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't say it." Pei Anzhu smiled, "Those shadow puppets you hung on the wall before said everything that should be said and shouldn't be said. For example... you skinned five people in total before, right? ?"
