“Uh…”
The rag doll clearly had not expected that its ultimate trump card would actually be broken by soone.
And it even noticed that Ethan was pointing an arrow straight at it. It has been exposed.
(°ー°〃)
The rag doll turned around and tried to run.
But Ethan was even faster than it. He directly loosed an arrow without even bothering to aim, shooting straight at the rag doll.
“Ah!”
The rag doll let out a miserable scream.
Right after that, Ethan heard the sound of sothing falling from midair. He imdiately rode the bone horse toward the direction of the falling sound, while the scarecrow was almost jolted so badly it nearly shook the crap out of itself.
[“Lord, slow down, the kerosene is about to splash out!”]
“If the rag doll gets away, you can just wait to die!”
As Ethan spoke, he even flicked the reins, and the bone horse ran even more wildly.
The scarecrow’s two eyes went completely cross-eyed, staring fixedly at the kerosene lamp on its mouth, terrified that the kerosene inside would spill out, splash onto it, and then it would no longer be a scarecrow but a little fire man.
Whoosh!
When the bone horse reached the spot where the rag doll had fallen, Ethan imdiately pulled the reins to stop it. Only then did he jump off the horse and start searching the surroundings.
But the fog here was simply too thick. You could not see anything clearly at all, let alone find sothing.
So even though Ethan knew the scarecrow had fallen sowhere nearby, he just could not find it.
[“This! This!”]
The scarecrow suddenly shouted inside Ethan’s spiritual sense, [“On your right, three o’clock direction!”]
“How do you know?”, Ethan was sowhat surprised by the scarecrow’s eyesight.
After all, being able to see a rag doll on the ground in this foggy place was a real skill.
[“I… I need to pee,”] the scarecrow said shyly, [“The closer you get to the rag doll, the more urgent it feels, so I know it must be there!”]
“Alright.”
Ethan realized he had overestimated it.
Turns out the scarecrow was not a pair of far-seeing eyes, but a piss compass.
Tap! Tap!
Ethan walked in the direction the scarecrow pointed out. Once he got a bit closer, he heard the sound of sothing flopping around on the ground.
He lifted the kerosene lamp to take a closer look, and only then did he discover a dirty humanoid doll on the ground, nailed firmly to the earth by the tycoon arrow.
The humanoid doll was the traditional kind of rubber doll, about the size of a newborn baby. It was wearing a small dress with patches sewn all over it, but its golden hair was combed very neatly.
At a glance, one could tell that its forr owner must have loved it dearly. Otherwise, they would not have styled its hair so elaborately.
At this mont, the humanoid doll was angrily kicking its lotus-root-like little legs, using its tiny hands to brace against the ground, trying to struggle up. But its small body was pinned down tightly by the tycoon arrow. No matter how much it struggled, it was all in vain.
“Damn thing, I advise you to let go right now, or I’ll curse you!”
“I will curse you to definitely die today!”
The humanoid doll stared with a pair of eyes identical to a human’s.
It stared straight at Ethan like that.
And within that gaze, there was even an extre, venomous malice revealed.
“Heh! Heh!”
At first, Ethan was a little worried, that this humanoid doll might really be able to curse people.
But after waiting for quite a while, the guardian necklace hanging around his neck showed absolutely no reaction at all.
“I believe your ass!”
After saying that, Ethan reached out, intending to burn the humanoid doll’s little clothes.
Because he was really curious whether a talking doll with a soul might be sowhat similar to a human.
For example, in terms of body structure…
[“Don’t move!”]
However, at that mont, the scarecrow suddenly spoke up and stopped Ethan, [“Everything the doll said is true! Once you touch it, you will form a connection with it. When that happens, its curse will naturally take effect on you.”]
“Holy crap! This thing is really damn sinister.”
Ethan sucked in a sharp breath and hurriedly pulled his hand back.
Only then did he quickly ask the scarecrow, “Then does this ghost thing have anything it’s afraid of?”
[“Afraid…”]
The scarecrow thought for a long ti, then shook its head and said, [“Probably not! It’s like . Even though it has intelligence, it doesn’t seem to feel pain or anything like that. And look, it’s still got an arrow stuck in it. If it were a normal person, they would already be in agony. How could they still struggle like this?”]
“That makes sense.”
Ethan nodded and did not dare to casually touch this venomous humanoid doll.
But when the humanoid doll saw that Ethan was just standing there ignoring it, it imdiately beca even angrier and started cursing furiously, “You dog thing! Trash human! Weren’t you here to kill ? Co on then!”
“Why aren’t you daring to make a move? What, lost your balls already, so you’re useless?”
“Coward! Co kill !”
“……”
Looking at the humanoid doll’s furious, hysterical appearance, Ethan beca even more convinced that this thing was indeed poisonous.
But letting it go just like that made Ethan feel unwilling.
What was more, he still wanted to ask it about Daji’s whereabouts.
Naturally, he could not just let it go like this. So even knowing it was poisonous, Ethan could only prepare proper safety asures before making a move.
“Brother Scarecrow, if I don’t make direct contact with this thing, but teach it a lesson through so object in between, I shouldn’t get cursed, right?”, Ethan asked humbly.
After thinking for a mont, the scarecrow replied, [“I’m not completely sure either. But you can take sothing and run an experint.”]
“That makes sense.”
Ethan imdiately picked up the scarecrow and used the bamboo pole underneath it to poke at the splitting arrow stuck in the humanoid doll.
[“Lord, what are you doing?”,] the scarecrow said in shock, [“I just told you to find sothing to test it. I didn’t tell you to use to test it. Isn’t this going too far?”]
“Experint one, poking the arrow on the humanoid doll is fine.”
Ethan completely ignored the scarecrow’s words. He continued holding the scarecrow, using the bamboo pole underneath it as an experintal tool.
The scarecrow cried pitifully, [“Lord, I beg you, please be a human being!”]
“Experint two, using the stick under the scarecrow to poke the clothes on the humanoid doll is also fine.”
Ethan continued the experint.
(´இ皿இ｀)゜
The scarecrow wept bitterly, [“Lord, even if you refuse to be human, at least treat like one, okay?”]
“Treat you like a human is impossible. You’re not a human,” Ethan shrugged, “What kind of person would tell a scarecrow to be a human? Wait, no. Scarecrow does have the word ‘man’ in it. Truly treating you like a human, this concubine cannot do.”
“Hoo!”
Seeing that he had not been cursed, the scarecrow finally let out a sigh of relief.
But Ethan still had no intention of being human. He raised an eyebrow and said, “Although going through an object won’t trigger the curse, I wonder if directly having skin-to-skin contact with this humanoid doll would also be fine?”
