Chapter 12: The True Face of Youkai

The papier-mΓ’chΓ© window paper, under the reflection of the bright moon, clearly depicts the shadows of the surrounding trees on the panes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Call...... Call......

In the middle of the night, the wind was blowing, and the shadows of the trees were swaying, and the swaying rattans and branches were projected on the windows, like a group of demons dancing wildly.

The wick the size of a mung bean on the table swayed gently, listening to the whistling sound outside the window, looking at the shadows of the trees on the pane out of the corner of his eyes, and then thinking of everyone's strange performance and Ah Si's last words, Ah Ling's heartbeat beat twice for no reason.

However, Ah Ling quickly calmed down and laughed at himself.

- They are foolish, can I be as foolish as they are?

Superstition, this is the superstition of Chiguoguo!!

Ah Ling got up and drank some water, it was late at night, he felt a little cold in his single clothes, and the air was slightly cold.

Goo-goo......

Ah Ling scooped a large spoonful of well water with a big scoop in the big vat of water in the corner of the wall, and poured it violently with his neck up, only to feel that the irritability in his heart was completely suppressed.

"Cool!"

Ah Ling wiped his mouth, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and prepared to go back to the floor next to the stove and sleep well.

Smack......

A very soft sound sounded outside the door, like the sound of something flicking on the wooden door.

The sound was very soft, but in this silent night where there was only the sound of the wind, this 'snapping' sound came into Ah Ling's ears, but it was tantamount to a thunderbolt!

Ah Ling was about to put the water scoop back into the vat, and was stunned in mid-air.

He held his breath, all his attention focused on the closed wooden door of the 'dining hall'.

Time passed little by little, two minutes passed, except for the 'whoosh' sound of the night wind dragging the branches, there was no other sound, insects did not chirp, birds did not chirp, cockroaches and rats were sleeping...... Quiet! Surprisingly quiet!

Ah Ling's highly vigilant spirit gradually relaxed, perhaps he had auditory hallucinations, even if the wooden door really made a 'click' sound, what could it mean?

Maybe it was the dead branches or small stones blown by the strong wind that happened to hit the wooden door, maybe it was a small insect that didn't have long eyes hitting the door panel, maybe it was the wooden door that had aged after more than a dozen spring and autumn years, the wooden structure changed, and the thermal expansion and cold contraction......

In short, this is a normal thing, no need to make a fuss!

"What's wrong with me? When did you become so timid? ”

The corners of Ah Ling's mouth showed a self-deprecating rise again-it's all to blame Ah Si, this kid, what kind of goblins and ghosts, it's really terrible!

No matter what...... Go to bed!

Ah Ling made up his mind and slept with his head covered first.

Smack...... Bang ......

This time, there was a continuous 'click' sound from the wooden door, and Ah Ling heard it so clearly!

"Who?!"

Ah Ling let out a low voice, rushed to the door with an arrow, and suddenly stretched out his hand to open the wooden door!

Call......

The wind was howling, and there was nothing outside except the trees that were swaying in the moonlight.

Hiss...... What the fuck I do!

Ah Ling closed the door, not afraid, just confused.

There is no wind and no waves, the panic and horror of Meng He, Ah Si and others is not out of nowhere, they must have experienced something when they 'watched the night' on the fifteenth day of every month!

- What's going on? Is there really a monster? Vixen or Snake Spirit? Are you here to get sperm or to borrow the womb to give birth?

Ah Ling secretly thought, I don't mind being Ning Caichen, Xu Xian and the like, sacrificing some 'essence' as a charitable donation, I'm afraid that it is not the enchanting snake demon and fox spirit who incarnate in human form, but the old demon of Montenegro......

Thinking of the picture of the old demon of Montenegro holding down himself who was sleeping in a formal suit, and his terrifying and disgusting mouth slowly came up to inhale his yang energy, Ah Ling only felt a burst of nausea.

Sou......

A dark shadow swept through the window and flashed through the corner of Ah Ling's eyes!

Ah Ling was very sure that this was not his hallucination, but that something was really floating outside the window.

What the hell?!

It seems that this time it is really evil, the kitchen of this 'dining hall' is not clean, I don't know if it is a feng shui problem, or it happened to be built on a mass grave?

Ah Ling quickly glanced at the kitchen, knowing that the 'black donkey's hooves' could not be found for the time being, so he quickly grabbed two handfuls of peeled garlic from the bamboo basket and stuffed them into his clothes and pants.

The dark shadow outside the window floated by again, this time much slower than before, and Ah Ling could clearly see that it was a terrifying figure floating in mid-air......

"Hasten as a law, Jesus Christ will soon appear!" Ah Ling was so frightened that he hit a fierce spirit and shouted in a panic.

Ah Ling thought that he couldn't be afraid of these demons and monsters that the gods and gods were chattering, but when it came to the end, he still instinctively gave birth to fear.

Pretend to be asleep!

Yes, pretend to be asleep!

Ah Ling thought of what Ah Si had said before leaving, and hurriedly walked to the floor and got into the quilt.

Squeak ......

The wooden door was pushed open, and there was a long, hoarse sound.

Then, there was a faint sound of footsteps, the footsteps were so light that they were almost inaudible, and if it weren't for Ah Ling's excellent ear, they wouldn't have been able to hear it at all.

After the footsteps entered the house, I listened to it, and it seemed that I was observing Ah Ling who was hiding in the quilt, and after a while, the footsteps sounded again.

Then, Ah Ling heard the sound of pots and pans being turned......

Hey? Could it be that this monster has come to the kitchen to steal something to eat?

For some reason, an irrepressible anger suddenly appeared in Ah Ling's chest, he felt so aggrieved, and if he hid in the bed like this, even if he was not eaten by the monster or scared to death, he would be suffocated to death!

- A youkai who broke into the kitchen and stole something to eat? If I, Ah Ling, are even afraid of such a lifeless monster, wouldn't it be more unproductive than it? If it's so useless, even if it's eaten by a monster, it deserves it!

Call......

Ah Ling, who was hiding in the quilt and was motionless, suddenly shook off the quilt covering his head and jumped up.

"Phew! Who is the demon, dare to come here to be presumptuous, and die quickly! Ah Ling stuffed two raw garlic into his mouth, chewed violently, and the pungent smell of raw garlic suddenly filled the room.

I saw a terrifying figure shrouded in a black robe, removing the basket and staring at the leftover oily hooves and braised pork inside......

The 'monster' didn't seem to expect that the guy who 'watched the night' tonight was so bold that he didn't pretend to be dead or asleep, but jumped up to kill the demon.

After the tall black shadow was stunned for a moment, he shook the black robe on his body and let out a strange roar......

Looking at this tall black shadow, for some reason, the only fear left in Ah Ling's heart was gone, and he always felt that the 'monster' in front of him was very funny, deliberately pretending to be scary, just like a clown.

Burst......

Ah Ling spat out the pureed raw garlic in his mouth at the black shadow, and then his people pounced on the 'youkai'.

"Oops!"

The youkai seemed to be taken aback, and in a panic, it took two steps back, tripped over something under its feet, and fell to the ground.

"Haha, there are still monsters who are scared when they see people!" Ah Ling swept away the grievances and gloom in his chest, and laughed loudly.

But the next scene made him unable to laugh!

The monster shrouded in black robes actually broke off from the middle and split in two......

Ah Ling's hairs stood up one by one, which was beyond the limit of his psychological endurance!

"Oh, stinky boy, get out of the way of your stinky feet...... You've kicked me! ”

A delicate voice suddenly came from the wriggling robes.

"Sister-in-law, it's your ass that is too big and stuck in the exit......"

Another milky, childish voice also came from the black robe.

Hiss...... What kind of monster is this? Could it really be the old demon of Montenegro who is both male and female, old and young, androgynous?!

Before Ah Ling came back to his senses, he saw two people coming out of the black robe that kept turning!

One is a boy with a fat head and a fat brain, and his whole body is like a small leather ball, eleven or twelve years old, blinking a pair of cute little eyes, and constantly looking at Ah Ling in front of him.

Immediately after coming out of the black robe, it was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, her skin was like clotted fat, and her eyes were charming.

Judging from the decent and gorgeous costumes and clothing of the two, it is known that these two people have an extraordinary status in the Li Mansion!

"Keeping you on your feet, why did you fall?!" The girl blamed the chubby boy, and a pair of Danfeng eyes gently picked up, not only did not have a trace of murder, but added a bit of charm.

"I said that you are below, and I stand on your shoulders, and you must not agree, but you must stand on my shoulders...... How can I be blamed for this! The chubby little boy pouted and retorted unconvinced.

"You don't look at yourself, you're as fat as a pig, how can my shoulders bear you!" The flower-like girl snorted.

They didn't seem to take Ah Ling on the side seriously at all, as if Ah Ling was a non-existent piece of air.

The two of them replied to each other, but it amused Ah Ling.

Especially when I saw the hemp rope in the left hand of the fat little fat man and the slingshot and pebble held in his right hand, I immediately understood everything!

A black shadow flashed outside the window, and the 'click' sound came from the wooden door...... It's really a shame that this little chubby dun can figure it out!

"Hey, what are you two doing?! Pretending to be a ghost, sneaking around, and stealing things from the dining room, isn't it?! ”

Ah Ling deliberately kept a straight face and put on a very fierce look.

Unexpectedly, the faces of the little chubby dun and the beautiful girl not only showed no fear, but also showed an indignant expression of disapproval.

- Such a domineering 'thief', it is the first time that Ah Lingzhen has encountered it.

"You're new here, aren't you? Who told you to jump up and be a hero?! The girl's jade hand was on her waist, and she said fiercely: "Every time someone else is scared and trembling, you can bear it!" Hmph, it's not fun at all! ”

Ah Ling couldn't cry or laugh - it was his own fault! In these days, it's wrong not to pretend to be asleep or afraid?

"Who the hell are you? Why do you go to the dining hall to pretend to be a ghost? Ah Ling asked.
