Chapter 7: Where did the flamboyant ghost run?! (7)
"Outflanked..." Shi added.
Qianye was stunned for a moment, looked at the light barrier still glowing with golden light around the yard, and fiddled with the talisman in his wide sleeves, while blaming: "Isn't it just outflanking? It's not like I haven't been outflanked before."
"Nearly a thousand innocent ghosts." Shi added.
"What?!" Chiba suddenly raised his voice, "Can you finish the sentence in one go?"
Shi looked aggrieved and said, "Sir, you always interrupt me, but I have already finished my words."
Qianye looked at Death with grief and anger as he spoke in three parts. Youyou took out a ghost-burning talisman from his sleeve, shook it in front of Death, and said, "Are you sure you've finished speaking? Why don't you tell me where I can escape?"
"
Shi took a slight step back, but still said sternly: "Sir, I just said it was outflanking."
The expression on Qianye's face became even more sad and angry, and she was almost about to cry. She looked at the innocent and aggrieved person who died, surrounded by nearly a thousand ghosts and ghosts...
She quickly began to make calculations in her mind. It cost one or two and a half silvers to kill a ghost using a gold ingot candle. Even if she wanted to escape, she would still have to fight her way out of the siege.
Breaking through the encirclement would require at least a thirty-degree area, so even if she didn't want to destroy the ghosts, she would still have to kill hundreds of them.
If the owner of the incense shop is willing to give her a 20% discount, the most conservative price would be two hundred taels of silver!
There were only two big words left in Chiba's mind for a while, the gray color was covered with cracks, "Bankrupt!"
And if she was injured again, wouldn't she have no money for medical treatment and her body would be exposed in the wilderness?
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! No!!!!"
But at this moment, there was no room for her to complain anymore. The ghost moved very fast, and in a moment it had reached the surrounding area of the courtyard.
The ghostly atmosphere shrouded in black mist seemed to have filled the sky, and the gloomy wind almost froze the rainwater on the ground. Among them were many hungry ghosts, ghosts and ghosts crying loudly, which was creepy.
Shi couldn't bear so much evil energy, so he shuddered and floated back into Qianye's wide sleeves.
Chiba stared at his sleeves with grief and anger, wanting to cry without tears.
The innocent ghosts began to touch the barrier, and countless hands seemed to be illuminated by the golden light. They kept scratching the barrier like a wall. The sound of scratching nails stung the eardrums, and there were also bursts of putrid stench. It was probably...
…zombies.
"Sir, run away quickly. You still have two hundred and seventy-three taels of silver in your sleeves. If you're lucky, you should have enough money for food and drink for a few days."
Qianye shook his sleeves vigorously, "Death, I raised you for nothing. At the critical moment, as my messenger, you just don't protect me, and you hide in your sleeves to count my belongings?!"
"Sir, as you said, I can't touch those dirty things. The soul is contaminated and it will be very troublesome to clean." Death Yan said firmly, and then added, "It will cost more money."
Chiba's face darkened again. When it came to money, it was her Achilles' heel.
Resigned to his fate, he took out the dagger from his sleeve, squeezed it, and took out a few talismans. With a glance from the corner of his eyes, he remembered that there was an unpleasant monster beside him.
He should also understand the current situation. He stood beside the thatched house, his body covered with blood and mud, and the color of his white robe was almost indistinguishable.
He held his hand on the door frame and didn't move.
He may have accepted his fate. Once the innocent ghosts with little spiritual consciousness wander around, they will definitely eat everything alive wherever they go.
And she... after all, she took advantage of him just now. If it were normal times, with her cultivation, how could she dare to provoke a four-tailed fox?
