Chapter 8: The Monk
Lan Qi couldn't help but sigh, and then asked the system: "Hey! I really don't want to complain about you anymore, what should I do now? ”
[Either run, or wait for them to lose and lose to collect people's heads.] 】
Let yourself go up, you won't be able to fight that. Even if they lose both, they are two ghosts after all! It's better to run safely: "Huh...... Then I'd better run away, which way should I go? ”
[Running down the mountain, no unknown creatures were detected at the bottom of the mountain.] It should be safe! 】
Hearing the system say that, it should be fine. After taking another look at the tiger and the headless ghost, he immediately jumped off the tree and ran down the mountain: "This road is right?" ....... System? TMD, pretending to be dumb again. Gan! ”
At this time, Lan Qi ran down the mountain without looking back, but there was the sound of ropes everywhere along the way. I guess it's a small animal, right? But just when he thought it was a small animal, he suddenly heard a man's roar behind him. He couldn't help but look back, and saw a youkai covered in green and no eyes running towards him, and the monster's hands and feet were in the shape of blades, running fast on all fours.
"! What the hell is this? System! You come out for me...... Help me! Ahaha, dying. Seeing that there was a monster chasing him, Lan Qi was so frightened that he could only speed up and run forward.
Lan Qi looked back again, and saw that the ghost who was chasing him in the distance just now was now getting closer and closer to him: "Ah~~, I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die." Help me! ”
I don't know if I was a little annoyed by Lan Qi's noise, and said: [Do you want to switch the system mode? 】
"What system mode?" He also didn't understand, what is a system pattern? But when he looked back, he found that the monster was less than five meters away from him just now: "Make sure to switch, hurry up and save me." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lan Qi immediately pulled out the peachwood sword at his waist. And jumped hard, and the whole person actually jumped higher. And the ghost who was chasing him just now immediately stopped and prepared to attack when he landed, but now Lan Qi was controlled by the system. So the system did not hesitate to hold the peachwood sword and slash directly towards this ghost.
The ghost had been split in half before he could react, and then the system ran down the hill without looking back. Lan Qi asked the system, "What the hell was that just now?" ”
[That's the sword ghost, which is the so-called 'lonely soul and wild ghost'. When no one buries it after death, that's how it will be. Generally, the knife ghost is two brothers together, a male and a female. The male is green, and the female is red. Just now it was only male, and the female system did not detect the model. For sure, though, it's nearby. 】
This...... In other words, the system killed its husband just now? That's what it means, right?
And then I don't know where the mother is, waiting for it to come to me? Isn't it, sir, is that what you do? If it doesn't come tonight, I'll be living in fear for the next few days. And I've been here for four days, and I haven't eaten a grain of rice. I'm afraid that I will either starve to death or be eaten by ghosts, which is really fatal.
At this moment, Lan Qi looked at the house at the foot of the mountain. It's finally at the bottom of the mountain, but it's ...... That's all it used to be. Will those goblins attack the villagers?
Lan Qi was also a little flustered, so he couldn't kill others because of himself, right? "System, run down the hill. Won't those goblins attack the villagers? ”
But the next answer from the system made Lan Qi stupid: [Yes! But it doesn't matter if they're alive or dead, as long as the host you're alive, it's fine. My mission is to make sure you don't die, and I don't care about the rest. 】
"That's not going to work, you can do it yourself." Then Lan Qi controlled his body and directly bypassed the house under the mountain, and ran quickly towards the right-hand side. But there are still a lot of little ghosts along the way, even if they are small, they are ghosts. He didn't want to go head-to-head with these goblins, so he ran straight in and ran past them quickly. And then ....... followed by a lot of imps: "Wow~~ Why are there so many?" There are too many ghosts on this mountain, right? ”
[You want to run this way by dying yourself, blame me? The system said as if it was a little helpless.
He looked back at the goblins behind him and asked, "What now?" You can't really die here, do you? ”
At this time, the system paused and said: [There is a temple three hundred meters ahead, where to run. There are Buddha statues in the temple, and they dare not approach. 】
Lan Qi looked ahead, and sure enough, there was indeed a temple on a small hill in front of him. Without saying a word, he ran towards the temple, and after a while. Lan Qi finally ran to this temple, but there was no one in this temple. And the Buddha statue in this temple looked particularly eerie at this time: "System, if there is a ghost here...... Then I have nowhere to run? ”
[Ghosts are afraid of Buddha statues, and once they enter here, they will disappear.] Even if there is a ghost here, it is a monk. As long as you don't bother it, you'll be fine. 】
"Hope...... So be it! Lan Qi looked outside the door of the temple, and sure enough, these ghosts did not dare to come in. He could finally rest, and a figure appeared in front of him. When he saw the figure, he immediately got up, but ...... Take a closer look. This person seems to be a monk, and since the monk is fine.
The monk clasped his hands together and held a string of Buddhist beads in his hands. looked at Lan Qi and said, "This donor, I don't know what happened when I came to visit late at night?" ”
Lan Qi looked at this person as kind, and he didn't know if he was a human or a ghost. Then he said kindly: "Hello master, I don't know where to go in the middle of the night. I happened to see a temple here, so I wanted to come and spend the night. ”
The monk smiled, looked at the ghosts outside the door and said, "Isn't the donor trying to avoid the ghosts outside?" ”
He didn't expect that this monk would be able to see it. He was also a little embarrassed and replied, "Huh? Can you see that? ...... Indeed, as the master said, I encountered a ghost in the middle of the night and was chased, so I came here. I'm sorry I hope it didn't bother you. ”
"It doesn't matter! Let's rest for the night before leaving, after dawn. Naturally, the ghosts retreated, and the poor monk went to rest first. After saying that, the monk turned and left.
How can there be monks in this temple? This is not a long-worn ...... Abandoned small temples? How could there be a monk here, and where he was when he came and when he left just now. There's no way out! It can't really be a ghost, right? I heard that the monks have become ghosts, which are even more fierce than these ghosts outside. Or don't mess with him, quietly.
