Chapter 56: The Marriage Engraved on the Wooden Sign

Paper figures are made of wood as bones, paper as skin, paint, and needles as eyes.

There are many skills and specialties in the papermaker's profession. The biggest taboo is that paper figures are not allowed to have eyes painted on them. Painting eyes gives it aura and makes it look evil.

The paper figures Su Yu encountered today were all eyes-open, either happy or sad, with completely different expressions.

After accusing a punch and blowing off the last paper man's head, Su Yu dialed Su Tangxue's phone number.

The ring only rang once and then a busy tone appeared.

I originally wanted to inform her and ask her to open the door, but now it seems I can only knock on the door.

I could faintly hear the conversation between two people through the door.

Su Yu gently knocked on the door and said, "Open the door. I'm Su Yu. I'm fine."

The conversation stopped abruptly.

"The scumbag is here?" Yu Shasha looked at Su Tangxue in disbelief and asked.

Su Tangxue was also a little hesitant, not sure whether it was true or not.

The two girls tiptoed to the door. When Su Tangxue saw Su Yu's pale face through the door, she immediately became happy.

"It's him!" Su Tangxue said happily, her eyes shining brightly.

The two quickly moved the cabinet and unlocked the door.

Su Yu was a little weak at this time. He put his hands on the door frame and asked with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Why don't you answer the phone?"

"Ah? I didn't hear the phone ring?" Su Tangxue was confused by the question. She quickly took out her mobile phone and saw the text prompt on it. Her pretty face turned pale and she hurriedly hid the mobile phone behind her back.

A trace of grievance appeared on his face.

Su Yu's sharp eyes had already seen the words above, and he looked at Su Tangxue with a strange expression.

Calls from blacklisted scumbags have been rejected.

Su Tangxue looked a little embarrassed: "I didn't block you."

When Yu Shasha saw that the situation was not good, she immediately pointed her finger at Su Tangxue and said righteously: "She gave you the scumbag to note."

The friendship between classmates of three years fell apart.

"Come into the house and talk about business." Su Yu said as naturally as if he were entering his own home.

"Oh." Su Tangxue was like a child who made a mistake, following behind with small steps, not forgetting to turn around and give Yu Shasha a fierce look.

Yu Shasha stuck out her tongue and walked at the end with a proud look on her face.

Su Yu sat on the sofa and asked confused: "Where did you provoke the paper man?"

"How do I know? I go home from school at 2:00 a.m. every day, and occasionally go to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities. A few days ago, a paper man followed me for no reason, but today is the first time that it blocked the door of my house." Su Tangxue was very worried.

I don't like his slightly questioning tone.

"It? Do you know how many paper figures came outside your door today? If you sell the waste paper, it would be enough for a feast." A sneer appeared on Su Yu's pale face.

There is absolutely no unwarranted pursuit and revenge in the world.

Su Yu looked at Su Tangxue's face coldly, trying to get some clues from her expression.

The prince had just died, so it was a coincidence that she appeared at his door, and it was a coincidence that she could not help but be involved in this matter.

The whole thing was weird.

"I said, I don't know!" Su Tangxue also lost her temper and glared back stubbornly.

"Why did you come in and act like you were interrogating a prisoner? What did I do wrong? Why am I being chased by ghosts and bullied by you!" Su Tangxue couldn't stop her tears from flowing down as she spoke.

"Scumbag, don't go too far! It's true that you saved me, but that doesn't mean we have to be angry with you here!" Yu Shasha hugged her arms and spoke in a high-pitched voice.

Su Yu didn't answer. It wasn't until Su Tangxue lowered her head to wipe her eyes with a tissue that she looked away and said slowly: "Do you know how many people you have affected and how many people have died because of you?"

"I want to confirm one thing now. In addition to my neighbors, how many people have lost their lives because of paper dolls? Tell me their names, genders, ages, and all the information you know."

Seeing that Yu Shasha was about to open her mouth again, Su Yu raised his palm to stop him and said calmly: "I'm not here to see your sisterly love, nor to question anything. You have also seen the development of the situation. Yesterday it was a paper man, today it is

A bunch of paper people, just because I can save you for one day doesn’t mean I can save you all the time, so for your own sake, you have to cooperate with me, okay?"

Yu Shasha opened her mouth and closed it again. It seemed that the relationship between the two was not what she thought, and his words were indeed reasonable. For a moment, her eyes turned to Su Tangxue.

"Okay." A smile appeared on Su Tangxue's pale face, and her eyes became more calm.

After a simple inquiry, Su Yu closed his eyes silently.

The four deceased people had no contact with each other, their ages were even more varied, and they met Su Tangxue by chance.

If I had to name something they have in common, it would be that they are both men who have interacted with Su Tangxue.

Su Yu dialed Pei Rui's phone number again.

"Brother, did you take the wrong medicine? The phone number you left yesterday has been asking me incomprehensible questions today. Do you hope that something will happen to me or nothing will happen to me? Let me tell you for the last time, I am fine! Don't miss me!"

The living room was very quiet, and all three of them heard Pei Rui's irritable voice.

Su Yu put down the phone. As long as he wasn't embarrassed, it would be Su Tangxue who was embarrassed.

"Although the communication is not smooth, fortunately, there is a situation that confirms that the paper man will only go to men who have had contact and communication with you. This is the first time I have encountered this situation."

"Think again, have you ever been to any weird places or experienced strange things?" Su Yu asked.

Su Tangxue fell into deep thought after hearing Su Yu's words, and after a long time her expression suddenly became serious.

"I suddenly remembered that a few years ago I went hiking with my friends and passed by a village. There was an old locust tree in the village that was hundreds of years old. It was said that this tree was particularly miraculous. Many people tied red strings on the tree to seek marriage.

"

"Did you tie the red string too?"

Su Tangxue shook her head: "The place had changed when I went there. There were wooden signs at both ends of the tree, tied with red ropes in the middle. Men and women were separated, and they wrote their names and contacts on the wooden signs.

You can pull down the red rope and see if someone has left a message on the wooden sign at the other end."

"This is nothing like seeking marriage, it's more like a blind date game." Yu Shasha couldn't help but say.

Su Tangxue frowned and said: "I thought it was fun at the time, I just wanted to see what kind of person would be on the other end, but when I pulled it off, there was only a kind of text and a string of numbers on the wooden sign that I couldn't understand.

"

"Is this a strange thing? After all, it's been a few years. If there was really a problem, it wouldn't have taken so long to come to the door, right?" Su Tangxue said uncertainly.

"Do you still remember that string of numbers?"

"Can not remember."

"Then do you still remember what the paper man said to you every time?"

The time is coming, come with me.

"You mean that string of numbers represents the time when he came to see me?" Su Tangxue said in surprise, "But this is too far-fetched."

Su Yu said with a strange expression: "I think these two things are related. The moment you wrote your name on the wooden sign, you have reached some kind of agreement with him."

"For example, a marriage contract."
