Chapter 114 - 114: Paper Doll Is a Substitute? Or a Cursed Item?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Li Yidao’s hands moved quickly and precisely.

For him, every step of making the paper dolls was ingrained in his memory.

After all, he had been dealing with these things for two lifetimes.

If he couldn’t stand at the pinnacle of this field, he would consider himself a failure.

As the paper doll gradually took shape, the discussions among the fans in the live stream became increasingly intense.

“No way! Brother Dao, why does this paper doll look so realistic? It’s different from the last time!”

“I feel the same way. Is this really a paper doll? It looks more like a puppet!” “Wait a minute… Why does this paper doll seem so scary?”

“Brother Dao, what are you doing? Why are you making such a lifelike paper doll?”

“Wait… Can this paper doll actually burn? Will it hurt?”

“You’re going too far upstairs! I’m getting goosebumps!”

“What kind of eerie story is this?”

No wonder the fans in the live stream room looked utterly puzzled.

At this moment, the paper doll in Li Yidao’s hand could indeed be described as a puppet!

Three-dimensional!

Li Yidao had actually created a three-dimensional paper doll!

Normally, paper dolls were just a framework with a layer of paper on top.

But Li Yidao… He had crafted a three-dimensional skeleton for this paper doll, even including the head!

As the paper doll took shape, Li Yidao’s expression showed no signs of relaxation.

Instead, he opened a package that was placed by his feet.

Through the live stream, everyone could see that it was a special dye box!

This was…

The fans in the live stream room became even more puzzled!

“What the heck is Brother Dao trying to do? Could it be that he wants to paint clothes?”

“Hey, don’t laugh. I heard that traditional paper craftsmen used to paint the doll’s clothes.”

“Really? You know, this isn’t something you can just casually paint. If it’s not done well, it might cause problems!”

“Haha, look at Brother Dao. Does he look like he’s not doing it well?” “Oh my god! Is Brother Dao so amazing? His painting skills are incredible!” “Bowing down, bowing down!”

“But… there’s something odd. Isn’t Brother Dao’s painting too realistic?”

“Are you serious? Is that even a golden boy? Is that a thing?” “… I don’t know what you guys are talking about.”

“Brother Dao? D*mn it! What is Brother Dao trying to do?”

“Didn’t Brother Dao say he couldn’t draw eyes before? What’s this?”

“D*mn it! What’s gotten into Brother Dao today? Do you think this paper doll…

could be a prop for Brother Dao?”

“A prop? Using a paper doll as a prop? Come on! Seriously?”

“It’s possible… Brother Dao is just like this, anyway… Look at his expression.

Someone must have provoked Brother Dao. Let’s have a moment of silence.” “No, what are you guys talking about? How can a paper doll be used as a prop?”

“Haha… Guess? What do you think?”

“Yeah, take a guess!”

“Do you think I’ll guess or not?”

“You big-headed ghost! If I’m guessing right, what you guys are saying is that it’s a cursed item, right?”

“Shh!”

“Shh!”

“Shh!”

Li Yidao didn’t pay attention to the live stream’s chatter. He seriously added a pair of eyes to the paper doll’s face.

From a conventional perspective, this was no longer an ordinary paper doll.

The little girl had asked for a paper doll for a reason, and it surely wasn’t meant to be burned.

So, there must be a certain purpose behind it.

As for that purpose, Li Yidao had already figured it out.

Substitute!

This was a rather mystical practice he and his sister had learned from their parents.

They could use paper dolls as substitutes!

For example, there were wish-fulfilling paper dolls!

And there were also other special uses for this kind of paper doll!

Some could even be used… as life-saving measures!

Moreover, as a cursed item, a paper doll was an excellent vessel!

The better the quality of the paper doll, the more realistic it was, and the more effective it would be for any purpose!

Li Yidao knew that the paper doll Li Yinuo had asked for had a specific purpose.

That was why he had drawn eyes on it, imbuing it with spirit!

And then he used the Soul Attachment!

In this case… it should be sufficient, right?

Looking at the lifelike golden boy paper doll before him, Li Yidao took a deep breath.

He was about to do the final step.

Without any hesitation, he directly activated the Soul Attachment!

He used a hundred years lifespan!

As the skill was activated, Li Yidao felt a momentary emptiness wash over him.

The paper doll in front of him also suddenly turned very eerie.

With a slight upward curve of the mouth and the liveliness in its eyes, It was as if… it had come to life!

At this moment, even Li Yidao felt an icy coldness all over his body!

A wave of cold air rushed to the top of his head!

What had he created here?

“Very well! This should be enough!”

At an unknown time, the beautiful woman was already standing beside Li Yidao.

Even before Li Yidao could say anything, she directly took the paper doll in her hand!

Perhaps it was Li Yidao’s imagination.

When the paper doll was taken into the woman’s hand, it seemed to have an expression of fear.

The beautiful woman admired the paper doll for a while, and then her expression froze!

With an astonished look, she gazed at Li Yidao.

“You… this is… you’ve consumed your own lifespan?”

Holding the paper doll, the beautiful woman looked shocked.

Li Yidao didn’t say anything and remained silent.

But at this moment, he was far from calm inside.

The fact that the woman could immediately recognize the paper doll’s uniqueness was surprising to him.

Who exactly was she?

Although Li Yidao didn’t speak, seeing his weakened state, the woman seemed even more certain of her deduction.

A faint smile appeared on her lips.

“No wonder…”

“No wonder she would do this…”

As she spoke, the beautiful woman shook her head. It seemed like a mixture of relief and resignation.

“I’ll take the paper doll. We’ll meet again.”

The beautiful woman took the paper doll and placed it somewhere that could not be seen. Li Yidao couldn’t even sense the doll’s presence.

Afterward, she put on her glasses, turned around, and left the funeral shop.

Watching her departing figure, Li Yidao hesitated for a moment before abandoning his unrealistic thoughts.

He could sense that the woman didn’t harbor ill intentions.

Since that was the case, he had no reason to attack.

Furthermore, even if he did, he might not necessarily be her match!

At this moment, Li Yidao turned to look at the live stream screen.

The live stream was still lively, with time-sync comments streaming incessantly!

However, the direction of the discussion was somewhat puzzling to Li Yidao.

“What the heck! The platform froze and went black again! Brother Dao took the paper doll away, and I didn’t even get to see it!”

“Yeah! Brother Dao, Brother Dao, hurry and invite the golden boy out so we can pay our respects!”

“So realistic! My son just asked me where he could buy this doll.” “This d*mn platform! Can’t they get a dedicated server for Brother Dao?”

“Exactly! It’s failing us at a crucial moment! Trash black screen!”

Looking at the live stream comments, Li Yidao furrowed his brows.

Frozen? Black screen?

If he remembered correctly, the live stream hadn’t experienced any glitches just now, and certainly not a black screen.

But why were the fans in the live stream room claiming there was a black screen?

This…

Suddenly!

Li Yidao seemed to have realized something.

He suddenly lifted his head and looked in the direction the beautiful woman had left!

The black screen during the live stream just now definitely had to be the doing of this beautiful woman!

Who exactly was she…

At this moment, Li Yidao was once again lost in thought.

One thing after another was continuously reshaping his understanding.

He felt like he had thought enough!

But now, looking at it again… his thinking seemed too narrow-minded..
