8. Plague Spirit Villa

When the hunt came back, it was already late, the blood-red sunset in the west shone on the blue sea sparkling, and the howl of the sea monster seemed to come from the distance, but there was a trace of sadness in the lowness, and the endless sea during the day seemed to carry such an unknown weirdness at night, listening to the continuous wailing, Li Qi was restless (Chapter 8 of the Legend of the Other World).

"Imperial Master, why don't we live in the place that Nie Huan arranged for us?" Li Qi had some complaints in her heart about Haohan, who was looking for a place to live in Canghai Town, the nearest town by the sea, at night, but after thinking about it, she knew that Haohan was that kind of elegant person, and she couldn't stand the rudeness of pirates.

"Although we are guests, we can't trouble others, and besides, Canghai Town has a place to live." Hao Han said, "Before Lone met the Dragon Girl, this was still a small fishing village, I remember that we were in a house next to an osmanthus tree day and night, and then Lone became the emperor, the house was also protected, and the Dragon Girl arranged continuous repairs, that is, Lone reigned for more than 8,000 years and never stopped." ”

Haohan said, sighing secretly, "It's just that after becoming the emperor, I threw a lot of old things out of the clouds, and it wasn't until I lay in the grave and had nothing to do that I remembered a lot of inadvertent past events in the past, and it was useless to regret and redeem at that time." Haohan raised his head, looked at the vast sky overhead, and his eyes became very distant, "I thought that I would never see the place I had remembered in the grave in this life, but God gave me a chance to regain my life, perhaps, he just wants to be lonely, and he will never forget some people and things." ”

Li Qi looked at the vastness and almost talked to himself, and suddenly had a feeling that he had lived too long and too long, although he was only 10,000 years old, compared to the long-lived dragon clan, ghost officials, or day and night are insignificant, but for people, the vast emperor who opened the human name has a feeling that it is too ancient, perhaps, people are born very complex animals, they carry too many things, too many feelings, so they are all very short-lived, decades, hundreds of years, at most only a few thousand years of life, However, after tens of thousands of years of emotional vastness, there is even a feeling of being older than the oldest creature in the world, more than his father who has lived for tens of thousands of years, perhaps, day and night are demons, such a race, born for tens of thousands of years without too many feelings of life, until about three hundred years ago the appearance of the city, Li Qi felt that the life of the night really began, until that time, he became a cold-blooded animal with feelings, but it was also in these years, almost immortal him, Aging very fast, perhaps, but also because it carries too many unbearable feelings, like a heavy burden, so that the sentimental night can't afford to carry, can't afford it, so it died, maybe, that's a relief.

Thinking of this, Li Qi said with emotion: "You say, is it okay to carry too many feelings?" Shouldn't you forget, get rid of it, my lord, you once chose death as relief, why were you reborn with all your memories? ”

Haohan was surprised to see that the young Li Qi would actually say such a thing, smiled with relief, and said: "Because people are originally animals with feelings, if they have no feelings, then they can only be the walking dead when they are free, and they will never remember everything they have ever loved, just like you can never forget day and night." But people can never immerse themselves in the past, many feelings are buried in the bottom of their hearts, and then, to find their own feelings that may be more poignant in the future, maybe one day, you will meet the person you are destined for, and then have a more poignant relationship than your father. ”

"Is it meant to be?" Li Qi muttered to himself, "I am destined to be the one of the wind and the moon, and I am the ...... of the wind and the moon."

"Feelings are mutual, not unrequited love, like a dead person will have feelings......" Haohan looked at the infatuated Li Qi and shook his head incessantly. In the blink of an eye, they had walked into the deepest part of Canghai Town, but what Haohan didn't expect at all was that the depths of Canghai Town were actually a village as silent as death.

The night wind swept up the thick leaves on the ground, the crying of the sea monster in the distance was more clearly visible, and on the hideous dead trees on the roadside, many crows landed on it, croaking and croaking, and the air was filled with a turbid and disgusting smell, and the whole village felt so uncomfortable. Everything here is dilapidated, there is no light in the dark and dreary village, only the deepest part of the village, at the end of the stone road a big house is lit up, just next to this big house in a hut came the fragrance of osmanthus, looking for incense, I saw a huge hanging flower tree growing in the wall, however, this hut is dilapidated, compared with the renovated big house around it, it is really heaven and earth.

"You...... Are you sure this is the room where you and the dragon lady stayed? Didn't you say that there was always a repair? How is it like...... Haunted house, how can the whole village be like ......" Seeing this scene, Li Qi couldn't help but feel creepy.

"Hmm...... Maybe I've been alone for more than 2,000 years, and I can't take care of it anymore......" Hao Han said with a whin.

"I won't live anyway!" Li Qi glanced at Haohan and knocked on the door of the mansion next to him, but there was no reaction inside, Haohan sighed, although this place is terrifying, there is still nothing that can threaten him and Li Qi within a radius of a few miles, he doesn't like to live in a haunted house, he can only open the door of the hut and prepare to tidy up tonight, and he will live wherever Li Qi wants.

It wasn't until after waiting for a stick of incense that the door of the mansion slowly opened, and an old servant slowly opened the door with a dim candle, and the flickering light shone on his face, "Who is still knocking on the door so late......" The old servant asked slowly,

"Hmm...... Can I stay here at night? Li Qi asked cautiously, looking at this, the master here is neither hospitable nor kind.

"No way!" The old servant said this unceremoniously and prepared to close the door.

"Wait......" Li Qi hurriedly stuffed a lot of silver into the crack in the door, and at this time, the movement of closing the door became slower and slower.

"If you're not afraid of death, just come in, outsiders who come here will definitely die......" The old servant opened the door and said leisurely.

At this time, the candlelight illuminated the words on the plaque on the gate, and it was written in a few big words, such a silent village, the terrifying old man, and the strange plaque, Li Qi's heart was very uneasy, she wanted to escape back to the vastness, but she would definitely be preached by the vastness when she left, so she could only walk in, only to see that the huge house was actually full of guards, and what came to the nose was a strong and pungent smell of medicine, and in the distance, with the cry of the monster, the faint coughing sound came.

"There are people here who have infectious diseases, and those of us who have stayed for a long time can resist it, but you outsiders are different, if you live here for one night, you will die, not only that, but even in the whole village, many people have died, and people say that there is a plague ghost spreading plague in this village, and they can't stop this ghost, so they can only lock him here so as not to infect others, and the rest of the living people have also run away."

"Plague ghosts?" Li Qi said in his heart, "So have you seen it?" ”

"No, there are many people guarding the house where the plague ghost is locked up for a long time, and I am only guarding the door, and I don't know many things......" The old servant said angrily, "You sleep in the outhouse at night, don't listen to anything, don't think, and don't walk around casually." ”

Li Qi nodded on the surface, but her curiosity was great, the more the old servant didn't let her meddle in her affairs, the more curious she became, thinking about how to explore the secret after the old servant went away.

However, as soon as he arrived at the house, the old servant locked all the doors and windows with a snap, and if it was an ordinary person, he would not be able to get out.

Li Qi muttered twice, felt so boring, and fell on the bed, but the coughing sound in the distance did not stop, making people unable to sleep at all, like the ** of a dying person.

"Who's coughing? Is it tuberculosis, so there is an infectious disease, and if you keep him here, is he dying? Li Qi thought wildly in her heart, and suddenly, she remembered Nie Huan's medical treatment, and thought in her heart that maybe Nie Huan worked hard to find Kong Fang, maybe it was to save the lives of the people in the house, "Then, who is in the house?" Kong Fang said that it was Nie Huan's father who got sick, and it was so pitiful to have such an illness. Li Qi thought wildly, but the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, "Simple tuberculosis, all the doctors in Shi Tangzhai are cured well, why are everyone helpless?" Kong Fang said that he couldn't help himself, and he couldn't be cured, could it be that the ghost locked up in the house was really a plague ghost? ”

Thinking of this, Li Qi's pores suddenly stood up, although she was also a ghost, she was really a coward, she regretted why she didn't go to live in that broken house with Haohan and came here, "Since they are all ghosts, look whose Tao is high!" Li Qi thought boldly, a gust of evening wind blew, the tree rattled, in the flickering candlelight, Li Qi suddenly saw a flower in front of his eyes, and saw a rickety figure on the wall, pasted on the wall like a painting, "Is this the shadow of the tree?" Li Qi was startled and didn't dare to think about it, but after a long time, the figure neither moved nor disappeared, which made Li Qi very strange, she walked over and wanted to see the shadow clearly, but the shadow was very afraid of Li Qi, trembled, and ran away against the wall.

"Wait! Don't run" Li Qi pointed at the figure and scolded, chasing after him, but the figure did not stop at all, and in a blink of an eye, he turned to the other side by the wall, Li Qi saw this, and also went through the wall, and I don't know how many rooms he passed through in a row, and the figure disappeared.

"Where did you go?" Li Qi muttered, and roughly understood in his heart that the figure was not a ghost at all, nor was it a plague ghost, but a style god controlled by a sorcerer, but at this time, the sound of coughing became clearer, and Li Qi found that he had passed through the layers of guards and had arrived at the center of the small courtyard.
