In Hu Qing's imagination, fighting a will-o'-the-wisp was nothing more than spreading phosphorus powder. Unexpectedly, the scene was so exciting.
I saw a huge square with layers upon layers of white bones and high buildings, which made people wonder if all the corpses of the ghosts in this city were transported here.
And the will-o'-the-wisp is naturally inside the bones.
Fighting means really fighting.
The white bones may be complete or incomplete, but without exception they are so clean and white that even a dog wouldn't even look at them.
There were many people standing on the Bone Plateau, holding python whips, and beating them. As the python whips flew, the bones were lifted high into the sky, and exploded into various patterns and various shades of green light.
.
There was cheering all around, all locals.
Outsiders can’t laugh. Isn’t this a real-life version of corpse whipping?
"Brother, may I ask, where do all these bones come from?" The foreign boy dressed in justice asked the locals solemnly.
The smiling faces of the locals distorted in the green light: "Ah, our own."
The righteous young man blocked me: "Aren't you hurting yourselves by doing this?"
The locals were both contemptuous and proud: "Young man, you will understand when you die as long as me. Skins and bones are useless foreign objects. For us people in the ghost country, the bones are just souvenirs. Apart from beatings,
Will-o'-the-wisps are of no use. Young man, your ideological level is not high enough."
After saying that, the local looked at the young man carefully and said, "Are you considering immigrating? I promise to help you make your bones beautiful and clean. You will definitely be the most handsome boy at the will-o'-the-wisp party."
"..."
Hu Qing wiped her face. What is excitement? This is extremely exciting. Why on earth would she bring her children to participate in such a parent-child activity?
Turn around decisively and go back.
Hu Nuan's suspicious eyes glanced at her again and again.
Hu Qing bared her teeth under the green clouds, so Hu Nuan resisted her questions.
On the way back, Hu Qing took another route. When she arrived at a certain place, she stopped and pushed her broken hair behind her ears.
"Oh, I'm tired from walking, let's go in and rest for a while."
At this time, this long street is empty, with no stalls or pedestrians, and the shops are closed. There are only tall wooden pillars and half-lit red lanterns dotted on the walls on both sides. The red silk hanging on the trees and under the eaves is swaying, faint.
The black ghost fog became thicker at some point, but the red lanterns were swaying even though there was no wind. During the day, I didn't notice that the wooden bars supporting the red lanterns actually formed the images of sad and grim faces.
"Mom, are you afraid?"
The three of them unanimously surrounded Hu Qing in the middle.
Hu Qing said firmly: "As long as they are not Ah Piao, I am not afraid."
Three people: "..."
They really don't understand what it is to be afraid of ghosts.
Hu Qing walked towards a closed shop door and pushed hard. The unclosed door creaked open, as if there were thousand-year-old rotten wood under the fresh red paint.
Hu Nuan took a few steps forward and crossed the threshold first, but Hu Qing pulled the clothes on his back and pulled him back.
"The owner of this house has made an appointment with me. You guys are waiting outside."
Hu Qing walked back calmly.
Tang Yuzi stepped in and immediately raised her hands to cover her nose to stop sneezing.
Hu Nuan: "The ghost spirit here is very dirty."
In the ghost country during the day, the ghost atmosphere is as clean as the air washed by rain. At night, a layer of cloth seems to be removed to reveal the fermenting smell inside. But the ghost atmosphere in the shop is like rotten food filled with dead things.
Pond, pungent fishy and smelly.
Tang Yuzi's golden body couldn't bear the filth.
"Are you going outside?"
Tang Yuzi shook his head and swallowed a handful of pills.
"Our mother will definitely go kill ghosts. This shop sells utensils, why not-"
They exchanged glances, and there was no doubt that it was robbery.
Hu Qing felt the turbid ghost energy roaring in his blood vessels. He walked easily to the last hall, found the stairs in the corner and walked up. The shop on the first floor lived on the second floor. It was a big mom-and-pop shop.
However, it seems that this couple can only use the same ghost body.
"Are you too old and you can only unite as one to resist the defeat of the ghost body?"
The figure slowly raised his head in the two-foot-wide and three-foot-high dressing mirror. It was very different from Bai Ri. The figure's face was half male and half female. There was no symmetry at all, and the facial features of Bai Ri's face were all different.
The half-male face grinned at Hu Qing with a terrifying smile, and a mixed voice of male and female came from the mirror: "After I eat you, we husband and wife can face each other."
Then the female voice said coquettishly: "Come on."
Then a male voice said in a low voice: "Come here."
There were no lights in the room, only the mirror emitted a slight light, which seemed to have warmth in the cold air.
Men and women kept calling, and the air became thick and fragrant, as if there were circles of ripples swaying and reverberating into people's minds. Hu Qing's head slowly lowered, and his whole body became stiff and wooden, and his feet
Dragging it heavily, it moved towards the mirror little by little.
"Come on, come on."
The calls became more urgent and exciting: "Come in, come in quickly."
Hu gently raised an arm and thrust it straight into the mirror. The smooth mirror surface was not hard, and it was penetrated as if it were nothing.
"Come in all, come in all -"
The arm did not continue to stretch forward, Hu Qing slowly raised his head, his bright eyes were indifferent and sober.
"Why are you so careless? Do you think that after your ghost energy marked me, I won't be able to resist? I obviously behaved normally when I stepped here."
On the other side of the mirror, the ghost couple was horrified. That hand, that hand that stretched out, that hand that was obviously a living person! There was actually a ghost energy in the palm of the hand. It was a ghost energy that was pure, pure and powerful than theirs.
No, it's impossible. Is she not a ghost?
No matter how confused and unwilling they were, they could only watch as they were sucked into the whirlpool of ghostly energy in the palm of their hand and dragged in bit by bit until their consciousness was completely wiped out and they were unable to make another sound.
Hu Qing held his hand and pulled it out, and the mirror shattered all over the floor. The whole room suddenly became deserted, dilapidated, decayed, and lost its color, as if countless hours had passed in one go.
She calmly went down to the first floor, but the first floor was exactly as it was before, except that everything was empty.
so--
"Mom, we've put them all away, here."
Hu Nuan gave her a storage bag, and Hu Nuan glanced at it. When he saw that the ghost weapons and materials inside were unchanged, he felt relieved and put them away in the space. Don't give this kind of thing to children.
The three of them asked what was going on.
Hu Qing talked about what happened during the day: "I want to eat my soul and give them a body to grow. It's a beautiful thought. Is it true that I have attracted so many people here for food? This kind of thing didn't happen before, otherwise Cunzhongjie wouldn't know about it.
.”
So, what big trick did the Ghost Emperor hold back after getting married?
Leaving the empty shop, the four of them went directly back to the yard, and they were the first to come back.
The boss was sitting at the door admiring the moon. When he saw them, he said, "I haven't been eaten yet."
The tone was a bit regretful.
Xuan Yao said: "Master, aren't there any ghosts coming to eat you?"
Judging from the strength of the soul, the person in front of me is the real delicacy.
The owner's left hand on his lap turned over: "Let's play with it."
A few black beads shot out, and Xuan Yao caught them: "Ghost beads?"
It seems that if there are ghosts who have come, they have all been turned into beads by the old man.
