Chapter Fifty-Eight: Mourning Stick

Luo Xiaoyan's sudden action made the Grim Reaper Yu hurriedly pause the video, and stretched out his hand in the face of Duanmu Zhuoxue, and a white stick suddenly appeared in his empty hand, and a small white piece of paper was stuck to the stick.

"What is this?" Luo Xiaoyan looked at the white stick in front of her and couldn't help but wonder.

"Mourning stick, you just have to knock it on the soul, and the soul that is knocked will faint. You ask Gu Qi to pull a small piece of paper and stick it on the unconscious soul, and the soul will be attached to this mourning stick. The Grim Reaper said with pride in his tone, "The latest improved version of Bai Impermanence, how many souls can be attached to a small piece of paper, I lend you." ”

Luo Xiaoyan hesitated and took the mourning stick from Death's hand, and couldn't help but be surprised: "I can pick this up without going out of my body?" ”

Death turned on the video, looking like he didn't want to pay attention to Luo Xiaoyan anymore: "If you want to take it, what will I do for you?" ”

After getting the mourning stick, and seeing that the god of death didn't want to pay attention to herself, Luo Xiaoyan began to rummage through the clothes she planned to wear out, as well as washing. When Luo Xiaoyan went to the bathroom to change clothes, the mobile phone rang, but the grim reaper turned it off without even looking at it.

"Your phone rang." After hearing Luo Xiaoyan's voice, the Grim Reaper said absent-mindedly.

"Who?" Luo Xiaoyan put down the pajamas she had changed into, and walked to the table where the Grim Reaper was while asking.

Because he was watching the video, the Grim Reaper didn't answer Luo Xiaoyan's words, and he didn't look at his phone, so naturally he didn't know who it was. As Luo Xiaoyan turned on the missed call, she couldn't help but exclaim, and said angrily at the god of death: "Gu Qi called, why did you hang up on me?" ”

Although complaining about death, Luo Xiaoyan did not stand, and quickly called back the phone, packed up her things and ran out of the bedroom. The Grim Reaper didn't react all the time, sitting and watching the TV series. It wasn't until Luo Xiaoyan was about to lock the door that Death Yu reached out and threw out the mourning stick that Luo Xiaoyan had forgotten on the table next to her.

The white mourning stick hit the door, and because of the sound of the impact, Luo Xiaoyan stopped locking the door and opened the bedroom door: "What's wrong?" What did you throw away? ”

When Luo Xiaoyan's voice appeared, the mourning stick that was pushed to the corner behind the door after hitting the door and opening the door suddenly let out a cry, and the sound was extremely miserable. Luo Xiaoyan was so frightened by this voice that she trembled for a while, and she didn't react for a long time.

"You forgot to bring your mourning stick." Seeing Luo Xiaoyan stunned for a long time, the Grim Reaper finally spoke, "You use it carefully, don't break it for me." ”

Luo Xiaoyan answered, picked up the mourning stick at the door and left quickly. walked to the stairs of the bedroom with a mourning stick, and Luo Xiaoyan couldn't help muttering: "Throw it around, but let me be careful, is he really a grim reaper?" ”

Muttering, Luo Xiaoyan walked downstairs, Gu Qi was already waiting downstairs, and showed a gentle smile after seeing Luo Xiaoyan. Luo Xiaoyan couldn't help but be stunned, but then the smile on Gu Qi's face disappeared, and she looked at the white mourning stick held by Luo Xiaoyan in her hand with a strange expression.

"It's not Qingming Festival yet, what are you doing with this hanging mountain?" After looking at the mourning stick for a long time, Gu Qi opened his mouth in confusion.

Luo Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment, and looked at the mourning stick in her hand. She didn't notice it when Gu Qi didn't talk about it, but after Gu Qi said this, Luo Xiaoyan remembered that in the past, she would go to her hometown to hang a mountain for her deceased relatives on the Qingming Festival at home, and she would buy all kinds of paper decorations and put them on the grave mountain. Luo Xiaoyan looked at the things in her hand at this time, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that it was like an ornament hanging on the mountain every time.

"The Grim Reaper gave it to me, saying that it was a mourning stick, and it was the latest improved version of Bai Impermanence." Luo Xiaoyan explained with a sad face, but at this time, she had a feeling that she had been deceived by the god of death.

While explaining, the two did not stop and walked forward, gradually moving away from the dormitory.

"White impermanence's mourning stick? It's possible. But Gu Qi nodded suddenly in realization, "This should be a new product, compared with the previous ones, the material, workmanship and design are much worse." However, they are all mass-produced things, and the quality is definitely not as good as what was done by hand before. ”

Listening to Gu Qi's words, Luo Xiaoyan was completely stunned this time. Although she is the owner of the Grim Reaper's notebook, acting for the Grim Reaper; Although she had also been to the underworld, she had only been to the Lethe River, and she had never seen a ghost other than the Grim Reaper except for the exercise of the Lethe River. But Gu Qi is just a soul master, and he doesn't know why he is so familiar with Bai Wuchang.

"People in the underworld know all these things." Seeing Luo Xiaoyan's thoughtful look, Gu Qi explained with a smile, "I have been following ghosts around me for a few years, and every year on the Halloween Festival, there will be ghost markets in every city in the human world. Xiao and I go almost every time, and I've heard people from the underworld say that Bai Wuchang always researches something strange and sells it. In the past, it was all made by hand, but in the past two years, I heard that mass production has begun. ”

Luo Xiaoyan listened very seriously, although she was still a little afraid of ghosts, but Luo Xiaoyan was extremely curious about the ghost market that Gu Qi said. After listening to Gu Qi's words, Luo Xiaoyan glanced at the mourning stick in her hand again, and suddenly understood why Death Youyou would lend this to her so generously, it turned out to be just an inferior product that was mass-produced.

"Although it is only a mass-produced thing, except for the ghost market, it is not easy to get the things that Bai Wuchang has researched." Looking at the loss in Luo Xiaoyan's eyes, Gu Qi continued to explain, "And this crying and mourning stick has not appeared in the ghost market this year, it may be the latest research, until everyone else knows and owns it, and it will be after Halloween next year." If you don't have a relationship with the god of death, you can't get it first, right? ”

Luo Xiaoyan nodded and shook the mourning stick in her hand. She has too much curiosity about the ghost market, Gu Qihui goes there every year, there must be something interesting there that attracts him. At this moment, Luo Xiaoyan really wished that she had also been to the ghost market, so that she could have more topics to talk about with Gu Qi. Thinking about it, Luo Xiaoyan couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little lost in her heart.

"What's wrong?" Hearing Luo Xiaoyan's sigh, Gu Qi couldn't help but wonder. His comfort didn't seem to have worked.

"What does a ghost market look like?" Although Luo Xiaoyan was lost, she couldn't help but ask, "Will there be a lot of ghosts?" The stalls and shopping are all ghosts? Will there be ghosts too? If those ghosts found people, would they eat people? ”

Gu Qiyan shook his head with a smile and said: "It's not all ghosts, there are people, demons, zombies, etc., although it is called a ghost market, it is not just a ghost market." You're half a Grim Reaper now, and if you want to go to next year's ghost market, we can go together. ”

Luo Xiaoyan's eyes burst out with a light of hope in an instant, and she nodded with great excitement and expectation, not because she could go to the curious ghost market, but because she could go there with Gu Qi, this is the point.
