Chapter 177: Book of Gods (3)

Tang Cuo pulled out his sword, but the book was still clutched by Polly. Maybe it was because he was too tight, or maybe his body was already badly beaten. When Tang Cuo went to get the book, he actually pulled his arm down.
He held his arm in silence for a moment, and put him back again.
Polly was gone, just like a broken doll.
Tang Cuo opened the book, there was no text on it, and it didn't work to inject magic power. I don't know if it was because the sword was too hard.
One thing is certain: this book is not ordinary.
This book can not only exert such magical power in Polly's hands, but also withstand Tang Cuo's full blow. It is not a legendary level but also a rare level of equipment.
For the time being, call it "No Word Book".
Either way, the book was abandoned when it was in Tang Cuo's hands, and he was not wrong. It was still very early at this time, he turned around in the library, and he did not find Jin Cheng's figure.
Then he must have triggered another side mission.
There was no second person in the library, and Tang Cuo simply returned to Polly and sat cross-legged. He intends to dismantle Polly to study it, because whether in the stories of the East or the West, or in the real world, the masters like to leave their own marks on their works.
Who made Polly, why he can hold such a powerful wordless book, and what caused his violent run, perhaps he can find clues by tracing the source.
Time passed slowly, Tang Cuo was gradually immersed in the fun of dismantling the puppets, and Jin Cheng on the other side was still fleeing.
The atmosphere in the puppet kingdom is getting weird.
The ubiquitous dolls, carrying embroidered needles and swords, and holding triangular ruler sickles, weave a bloodless murder in the fairy tale world covered with red carpet.
The puppets will not bleed, they will only be bad.
Even if the neck was cut and only a little cloth was attached, they could still go. The crooked face grinned at Jin Cheng, the embroidery needle pricked up, and his head was crooked to ten thousand miles away.
Such a puppet can never be killed.
Half an hour later, Jin Cheng could not see the dawn of hope. Looking to the left is a group of puppets, looking to the right is a group of puppets, he retreats decisively and hides in the small workshop behind him.
Who knew the door was closed, he faced the unfinished puppets on the shelf. The heads were neatly arranged, three full layers, and their bodies were hanging on the beams in the house, as if they had just been brushed with tung oil for maintenance.
"Ahhhhhh!" They started shouting in unison, calling out the rhythm and rhythm, as if they could sing in the next second.
"Fuck." Jin Cheng chose to jump the window.
After several turnovers, Jin Cheng touched the vicinity of "Aesop" before being nervous by these dolls. The oversized puppet was left here alone, and showed no signs of coming alive.
Jin Cheng climbed onto his shoulder, looking down at the entire puppet kingdom here, like looking at a pile of colorful blocks. This reminds him of the home in this world, the set of Lego that has not been finished yet.
I don’t know if his brother’s hand is broken. Still feeling the passing of the lovely younger brother, so she put it in the cabinet.
Thoughts ran away, Jin Cheng pulled it back again.
Looking at "Aesop" up close, it's not very similar to Aesop, because he doesn't have the iconic tassel earrings, and it looks a little worse in appearance.
"Hi!" There was a brisk voice above.
Jin Cheng raised his head and saw that the thief with pearl teeth protruded from "Aesop's" eye socket and waved to greet him. Without saying a word, a sound blade flew past, the other party smiled and avoided, shrugged, and turned to disappear into the pair of black gems. But at this moment, he found that his clothes corner was hooked.
He turned his head, Jin Cheng had been killed.
The sound blade is just a blind eye, the real attack is the hook tied to the prop rope. Jin Cheng can let him escape once, and never can let him escape a second time.
The thief laughed again, his body suddenly shrunk, and out of the hooked clothes, a golden cicada came out of the shell.
Jin Cheng chased him into his eyes, and the two were trapped in the ocean of black gems. That taste was cooler than thumping in the children's favorite marine ball park.
The shrunken thief is more flexible, although without the magic hat, it is still slippery and difficult to catch. Just after Jin Cheng came in, he escaped from the other eye, and finally turned back and waved at Jin Cheng, full of ridicule.
"Interesting." Jin Cheng raised an eyebrow, but did not rush to chase. He yanked the black gem out of the edge of his eye socket and raised his hand to beat Aesop's face.
The dust rose and fell gently, and outlined pale blue fluorescent footprints on Aesop.
Witch's ashes. The props that Jin Cheng once used in the copy of "The Return of the Snowy Night" are excellent equipment for tracking.
He followed the footprints, but did not chase too tightly. He wanted to know what the thief wanted to do than grab the thief immediately.
But ten minutes later, when he broke into a candy house, he only saw a pair of shoes outside the huge sugar bowl. The sugar bowl also painted a self-portrait of a thief with white powdered sugar.
A neat row of pearl teeth, like pomegranate seeds.
Jin Cheng was not angry even after the chase. He picked up the shoes and looked at them, thinking: the first time was a hat, the second time was a dress, and the third time was a shoe.
Next time, what else can the thief throw?
He had a hunch that the purpose of the thief must be related to "Aesop". So Jin Cheng once again returned to the square where the giant puppet was located, hiding under the brim, intending to stand by and wait.
Sure enough, the thief appeared again soon.
He sneaked up from the back to the shoulder of "Aesop", hiding in his collar and looking left and right, making sure that no one around him found him, and continued to climb up his ears. He remained small, slipped into the cochlea of ​​Aesop, and drilled into the head of Aesop from his ears.
Jin Cheng actually discovered him when he appeared nearby, but Quan Dang didn't know that he was lying on the brim with a lollipop and watched the whole process of climbing.
This time, Jin Cheng finally saw what the thief was doing-he was stealing gems. He took a cloth bag and desperately put gems in the bag, and no matter how much he stuffed, there was no sign of saturation in the bag.
Jin Cheng hooked the brim, and an upside down golden bell protruded from above Aesop's eyes, waving a lollipop, and greeted him enthusiastically: "Hi."
The thief froze, and for the first time a funny expression appeared on his funny face. He responded quickly, almost immediately grabbed a handful of gems and threw them on Jin Cheng's face, and then ran away.
Jin Cheng jumped off and threw another hook, successfully hooked his pants.
The thief turned his head and his eyes widened.
Jin Cheng raised an eyebrow: You have the ability to take it off again.
The thief really took off.
It was another golden cicada shelling. The thief had lost his hat, clothes, shoes, and now he had no pants. Wearing a shirt and a pair of white pants, the loach slid down the nose bridge of Aesop.
"Eh--" He thrown the whole person in a parabola, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, and then landed on the black umbrella.
Stunned.
The thief looked down at his hand: what about my bag?
He hurriedly raised his head and saw Jin Cheng protruding his head from the shoulder of "Aesop", throwing his cloth bag in his hand, and he smiled uncomfortably and was not punished.
"Give me back!" The thief jumped angrily, and the teeth made of pearls were shaking.
"No." Jin Cheng turned his head back and put the black gem in the cloth bag back into his eyes. There was no idea how much he had installed, but he hadn't finished it for three minutes.
The thief climbed up again, trying to take the bag back from him. But at this moment, the other puppets finally found the two who were messing up, and they came in droves.
The scene, looking down from above, is like countless ants stacking up and crawling up, the more they gather, the more they gather. In the blink of an eye, the ocean of puppets has already crossed the knee of Aesop.
Because of the large number of puppets gathered, "Aesop" began to disturb shaking, with a tendency to fall.
"fall down!"
"fall down!"
"fall down!"
The puppets shouted loudly, but did not stop climbing. Perhaps they wanted to kill two abominable invaders more than protect Aesop.
It was at this time that "Aesop" really began to tilt.
The thief was about to climb up into his eyes, and at such a tilt, a stump under his foot slipped off his cheek. Fortunately, his eyes caught his collarbone quickly, which saved him from the catastrophe.
Jin Cheng speeded up his movements, and the black gems in his eyes became more and more full. With a clatter, the last black gem was poured out of the cloth bag, but his eyes were already full. The gem was ejected and fell on Jin Cheng's palm.
The screaming wind blew his ears, and "Aesop" had fallen halfway, only 45 degrees from the ground. The puppets slid off the "Aesop" one after another, and fell like dumplings on a square full of fragments of porcelain puppets.
"puff!"
"puff!"
"puff!"
The sharp fragments pierced the puppet's body and damaged the puppet's joints. From a distance, it looks like a large doll throwing away the scene.
Jin Cheng also slipped from the eye socket to the bridge of his nose, but his movements were still not in a slight panic. Even at this moment, the thief climbed up again and grabbed his ankle.
"Give me the gem!" he shouted loudly.
Jin Cheng smiled, took the last black gem, and embedded it in the right eye with a crack left in the last second of "Aesop" about to fall to the ground.
"Click." Perfect.
The magic light flashed over the black gemstone, and Jin Cheng jumped backwards to avoid "the fall of the doll", when he saw "Aesop" blinked suddenly.
Those eyes are alive.
The porcelain-white cheeks were alive, and the stiff body became soft. "Aesop" stretched out his hand when he fell to the ground, cleverly supporting the body.
But he was too big, and the strong wind blowing from the palm of his hand blew the puppets in the square far away. The fragments of porcelain dolls jingled in the wind, and the whole square was in disarray.
And when he came alive, Jin Cheng confirmed-he is Aesop.
They look exactly the same.
"It's you! You took my gem!" The thief charged him with Aesop's leg.
"You obviously stole it." Jin Cheng spread his hand.
"Villain!"
"Ai."
Aesop looked down, looking at the two small dots at his feet, his eyes showing a trace of ignorance and confusion.
Jin Cheng showed a friendly smile to him, and then shot out, grabbing the thief's neck with a thunderbolt, and knocked him to the ground.
"Thank you for your compliment." Jin Cheng said.
The thief struggled desperately but couldn't open it, kicking his legs.
Jin Cheng also wanted to ask him what he did to steal the gem, but the earth suddenly began to shake. All the puppets still standing in the end, even Aesop could not help but hold the black umbrella, so that he could stand.
A trace of panic appeared on the thief's face, and the embarrassment of being caught by someone who had done something bad.
Jin Cheng took this expression into his eyes and raised his head to see the most fantastic picture he had seen since he entered this puppet kingdom-the sky was slit in the middle and opened.
An old face with a white beard appeared in his sight. He looked at Aesop with satisfaction, then reached out and touched his head, and said, "Lovely boy, you are finally done."
Oh, it’s not God, it’s the puppet master Herodotus.
Jin Cheng finally understood where the puppet kingdom was, and it was in Herodot's toy house. Aesop is not a giant puppet, but Jin Cheng has shrunk and became as big as the villain here.
Pearl Teeth is a greedy stupid thief who stole things and didn't run, and stayed at the crime scene to be caught.
Fortunately, there was no sign of trouble at the moment. He turned around and took out a small red velvet box. Opened, it contained a pair of tassel earrings.
He took the earrings and put them on Aesop’s ears with his own hands, and said, "Boy, this is a new gift I gave you. Remember not to take it down anytime, take it with you, you see, it How well it matches you."
Aesop still opened her ignorant and naive eyes and looked at Herodotus with curiosity. Herodotus was like a kind elder, looking at his child with compassion.
"May God bless you, my child."
Aesop blinked and asked, "What is God?"
Herodotos: "God is the one who controls everything and knows everything."
Aesop tilted his head and wobbled tassel earrings, obviously not quite understanding what he meant. Herodotus did not explain to the depths, just smiled and said to him: "My child, if you encounter any problems in the future, please explain to God. With such a lovely child, God will listen to you. "
Aesop seemed to understand, but nodded obediently, "Okay. What is my name?"
"Aesop." Herodotus said the name without hesitation. Obviously there was already a plan. "Your name is Aesop."
Jin Cheng looked up and looked at everything in his eyes: it turned out to be the case.
At the same time, Tangcuo finally dismantled all the dolls Polly, and finally found the name of the producer on a small part with a big thumb.
His name is-Herodotus.
