“Why are you so popular!” Ji Jing pointed at the doll helplessly.
She had expected someone to ask about the doll, but she did not expect it to become the most eye-catching existence in the entire stall.
They would glance at it when they passed by, not to mention the people who came up to ask. They racked their brains to ask for information.
“He probably recognized Master’s skill inheritance?” The doll shrugged.” Or are you interested in the wood of the body? It’s a divine tree. It’s said that it’s grown by cutting the branches of the Creation Tree into the soil of the human world. It’s very rare.”
Ji Jing nodded thoughtfully, or perhaps both.
Every person or demon who came up to ask about the doll had amazement and greed in their eyes. They all wanted to get it.
No wonder the doll had warned her to take good care of it. It had probably expected this outcome.
However, they seemed to want to get the contact information of the creator through the doll more than directly getting the doll. Therefore, they were more friendly than the last and left their contact information, hoping to establish contact with the creator.
Ever since Huaimeng’s fall, there had been no outstanding Puppet Master for many years. In recent years, even ordinary puppets that were easy to control were hard to come by, let alone those legendary puppets that could move as freely as a real person.
“Ah, if they knew that the creator of this body had actually passed away, what would their expressions be like? These greedy people.” The auction was coming to an end, and the number of people coming to the stall gradually decreased. The doll finally began to sigh leisurely.
However, such a sigh seemed to be filled with mockery and malice.
“I’m guessing that if you lose the way to contact the creator, won’t you become even more precious? They will probably fight for it more intensely, right?” Ji Jing said with a smile.
“…”The doll glared at her angrily. It was really picking on her.
“Hmm…Perhaps they have already realized it now.” Ming Ze looked at the bearded man in the corner and accidentally stabbed him again.
Ji Jing raised her eyebrows.” He looks like he’s contacting someone urgently. He’s not planning to make a move on the cruise, is he?”
“….”The doll clenched its knuckles so hard that they made cracking sounds. It was here to sell its inheritance for cash, not to let itself be hunted down, so it did not want to make a move. However, if someone wanted to provoke him, it was not impossible.
Seriously, even if it was only a pitiful puppet now, it was definitely not something they could covet, okay?
“The stall setting event is almost over.” Ming Ze looked at the increasingly dark sky outside and suddenly said,” Do you want to go outside and take a look? The starry sky above the sea is not to be missed.”
“Alright!” Ji Jing nodded excitedly.
As for the dolls, they naturally stayed at the stall until the waiter came to take away the auction items.
What could it say? Could it resist anything?
The doll met Ming Ze’s eyes and knew that it was time to leave. Damn it.
However, the doll was still being watched by many people. Ji Jing left an amulet for it, and Ming Ze picked up a bracelet that no one visited even though the doll was placed on the stall. He played with it for a while and handed it to the doll.
“It’s for protection. Don’t worry.” Ming Ze said.
The words ‘don’t worry’ were not so much to reassure the doll, but to reassure Ji Jing.
From the moment the doll took the bracelet, it knew that Ming Ze had cast an array on the bracelet in an instant. As long as it held it, no one on the cruise ship would be able to hurt it.
“Alright, alright. Let me face the storm alone.” The doll sat on the table expressionlessly.
Let it see who was so bold.
Should he use a sickle? Doll pondered. If it saw blood, it would be very difficult to clean up. It was better to just throw it into the sea.
He might come back again if he was thrown in. Why not knock him out and throw him into the sea? Monsters wouldn’t die anyway. At most, they would stay in the sea for a few more days.
The hall was gradually empty, but the doll seemed to be preparing to welcome an army..
