Chapter 79: Shouldn't You Go to the Morgue?
The sound of the bell only caused the monster to pause for a moment, and then it leaned towards them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Ming Chuan shook the net bell in his hand again.
"Jingle bell", the bell is crisp and pleasant, with an aftertaste that slowly spreads in the humid air.
The monster's footsteps paused for a moment again, and Cheng Wenqu's moaning intensified at the same time.
Ming Chuan stepped back and glanced at Cheng Wenqu behind him.
Wu Shuyu's trembling voice rang out: "That...... That one...... Here it is again. ā
The skinless monster took two steps forward, and this time it didn't wait for Mingchuan to rattle, it jumped up with both feet and pounced directly on them.
Ming Chuan put his hands together, protected the two behind him, and quickly retreated.
But his speed was never as fast as the other party's, and the monster's hands pressed directly on Ming Chuan's shoulders, knocking him to the ground.
The wet body felt very bad against himself, coupled with the faceless face that was infinitely magnified after approaching, and the unique stench of the rotting corpse, Ming Chuan felt like beeping the vicious dog Carter at this time, and the disgusting was incomparable.
Seeing that terrible monster pressing on Ming Chuan's body, Wu Shuyu suddenly had no idea, wanted to help but didn't dare to step forward, he could only watch it open its big mouth at Ming Chuan's face, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth.
Although the monster has the appearance of a human, from the point of view of details, no matter where you look at it, it has completely detached itself from the appearance of a human. This tooth is as sharp as two rows of white awls, and the number is far more than that of a normal person, if it is bitten, it is estimated that it can bite off Mingchuan's entire shoulder in one bite.
When Ming Chuan saw it, he just wanted to rattle the bell to stop the other party, but a black shadow jumped over from the side, wrapped directly around the ghost's neck, and successfully pulled the other party away.
The monster was slammed around its neck with a pained expression, its pitch-black tongue sticking out to the side, its bulging eyeballs rolling upwards.
After noticing the movement here, Ying Lan, who rushed over, pulled his body hard, and then grabbed the other party's neck and dragged it into the air.
The monster struggled desperately, and its strength was also extremely great, and it almost broke free from the shackles of Shadow Lan.
Without pressure on his body, Ming Chuan quickly got up from the ground, took a few steps back, and shouted into the air: "Yinglan, don't be polite to it!"
Listening to Ming Chuan's words, Ying Lan's body paused slightly for a moment, and then, the thick black shadow seemed to tremble, and then entangled with the monster again.
After finishing speaking, Ming Chuan turned around and said to Wu Shuyu and Cheng Wenqu: "Run!"
Wu Shuyu turned around and ran away without saying a word, but Cheng Wenqu looked a little hesitant, staring at the monster all the time, his face pale as if it might turn into a cloud of green smoke at any time.
"Xiaowen, run!" Wu Shuyu turned his head and shouted at Cheng Wenqu as he ran.
Cheng Wenqu seemed to have just come back to his senses at this time, and with an "oh" sound, he turned around and ran with them towards the other end of the reading room.
After running for a while, he felt the distance between himself and the monster widen, and Mingchuan slowly stopped.
"Mr. Mingchuan, don't we continue to run for our lives?" Wu Shuyu also stopped when he saw this.
"Just complete the mission of escaping for your life. Ming Chuan lit a cigarette for himself as he spoke, turned to look at Ying Lan and the ghost, and said calmly, "I'm here to work, and I ran away before I started working, what do you mean?"
"Eh, sir, do you have a way to deal with that monster?" Wu Shuyu asked in amazement. He originally thought that Ming Chuan was just a warlock with strong inspiration and could do things to exorcise evil spirits and ghosts, but now looking at his calm appearance, he thought that he had some real kung fu, and he even dared to deal with such a terrible thing.
"It's easy to deal with that guy, just let Ying Lan eat it. Ming Chuan said nonchalantly, "The real problem is the reason why that guy is here." ā
"Eh?" Wu Shuyu and Cheng Wen looked at each other, not understanding the meaning of Ming Chuan's words.
"That guy isn't a ghost in the usual sense of the word. Mingchuan explained to them while smoking a cigarette, "Because it's rare, I didn't expect to see anything like this here." ā
"Not a ghost, so what is it?" Wu Shuyu asked.
"Actually, I don't know what its official name is, but because it feeds on corpses and ghosts, I generally call it a 'ghoul'. "So far, this is the second time I've encountered this thing. ā
"Devouring corpses and ghosts?" Wu Shuyu asked suspiciously, "Then why did it come to the library? and tear up the books in the library in the middle of the night every day?" "Shouldn't this kind of thing go to the morgue? Why are you running here? and there is no corpse for it to eat." Is it because I didn't find anything to eat, so I vented my anger at books?
"If I had known the cause, I wouldn't have had such a headache. Ming Chuan replied with a half-squinted eye.
After a pause, Ming Chuan exhaled a puff of smoke and said lightly: "Actually, there is a point that you are mistaken. ā
"What?" Wu Shuyu said inexplicably.
"It's not the guy who tears books in the middle of the night. Ming Chuan raised his right hand as he spoke, and pointed at the two guys who were in front of him with his index finger and middle finger holding a cigarette, and said lightly, "Ghouls are not interested in anything other than corpses and ghosts. ā
"Not it?" Wu Shuyu was stunned, and his eyes followed Ming Chuan's fingers to look at the monster over there.
If it wasn't "it", what would it be? Is it really ......
Wu Shuyu's heart, which had already been settled, "Peng Tong", skipped a beat.
"The ghost who tears books in the middle of the night every day is not so exaggerated, if I am right, at most it is just a guy who has just turned in the direction of a ghost. Ming Chuan said lightly, "This ghoul is probably attracted by the ghost aura on that guy's body." ā
"In other words, the target of this monster is actually the ghost who makes trouble in the middle of the night every day?" Wu Shuyu finally figured it out, "Then why did it attack us?"
"I have a ghost aura on me, and he," Ming Chuan said, pointing at Cheng Wenqu, "is also food for ghouls." If you don't attack us, will you just watch the food slip under your eyelids in vain?"
"Then, we will be in danger?" Wu Shuyu was a little worried.
"It doesn't matter, although Shadow Lan's power is limited, a mere ghoul can't defeat it. ā
As soon as Ming Chuan finished speaking, as if confirming his words, Ying Lan threw his body and threw the ghoul to the ceiling, and then fell down again, with a snap, lying on the ground and unable to move for a long time.
