Chapter 12: Ghost City
Just as he was descending the mountain, Lan Qi was hungry. Speaking of which, it seems like I haven't had anything for days. At this time, he saw a waiting meeting in the distance and took a closer look. It turned out to be a bazaar, but I didn't expect there to be such a lively place at night. Just to see if there was anything to eat, just as he ran forward, the system suddenly asked: "Where are you going?" Don't you go back? 】
"I'm hungry right now and I have to find something to eat. Isn't there a bazaar ahead? There must be something for sale, hehe! Lan Qi said, pointing to the brightly lit street ahead.
But the system didn't see it, but it didn't detect anything wrong. So I didn't pay much attention to him, and waited until he came to the bazaar. There are pedestrians everywhere, and it seems to be quite lively. So he found a noodle restaurant, and the smell was quite good: "Boss, come to a bowl of noodles!" ”
"Okay!" The owner of the noodle shop here kept his head down and kept busy with himself, and the root was not looking back at Lan Qi and then agreed. At this time, what the system saw was Lan Qi's only son sitting on a grave and talking to the air. Could this be the legendary 'ghost city'? But nothing unusual was detected, was there?
After a while, the shopkeeper broke a bowl of noodles and brought it to Lan Qi. He looked at the face in front of him, and couldn't help but drool and said, "It's so fragrant!"
At this time, those people nearby suddenly turned their heads to look at Lan Qi, who was eating noodles. The faces of these people were all black, and they couldn't see their eyes and nose at all, only a mouth with an evil smile. But the system can't see it, and Lan Qi is just burying his head in his own noodles. didn't care about these things, and suddenly those 'people' rushed directly towards Lan Qi, instantly knocking him to the ground. Lan Qi shouted, "What are you doing? Let me go! ”
As for the system, seeing the continuous twitching on the ground when it was pulled up, the system, which had a premonition that something was wrong, immediately controlled Lan Qi's body and took out the robe from the system's backpack. And draped it on his body, but at this time, Lan Qi's eyes saw this group of people gathering themselves above their heads, and he shouted to the shopkeeper just now: "Boss, save me!" Hey, boss. ”
But no matter how Lan Qi shouted, the boss didn't seem to hear it. He kept making noodles repeatedly, and then he saw the faces of those bosses, and there was nothing else but a mouth. And the same is true of these people who carry themselves, and he reacted in an instant. This is a ghost market, and only ghosts can come here.
Then the demons led him to a gate. After seeing this gate, Lan Qi was stunned. This is a ghost gate! Want me to die? Thinking beautifully, Lan Qi immediately broke free of their hands and ran back. And when those ghosts saw Lan Qi running away, they immediately chased after him and muttered: "Come back, come back quickly." This is the Pure Land of Bliss, don't go back. ”
I'm back with a fart! I don't want to die, or you can go. Goodbye!
Suddenly, Lan Qi opened his eyes and found that he had returned to the thatched hut and was lying down. And he was wearing a robe: "I'm back?" ”
Seeing that Lan Qi woke up, the system couldn't help but taunt: [You finally woke up, how is it? Is the ghost market fun? 】
Lan Qi sat up and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. said helplessly: "It's funny, I almost died." Those ghosts, carry me to the door of ghosts. I almost became one of them, and it scared the hell out of me. ”
[Like you, if I don't help you. You don't think you can survive a day, what are you talking about? The system is also helpless, this Lan Qi is simply stunned. Without me, I don't think it would have been tonight.
"Yes, yes, hey! What time is it? Lan Qi got up and took off the outer garment, and then put the robe on the inside. The dress was worn outside, and then asked.
[Six o'clock in the morning, now this o'clock.] The oni and youkai have gone back, so you can rest assured. Hearing the system say that the time has passed, Lan Qi finally doesn't have to worry about ghosts anymore. Just as he walked out of the hut, he suddenly felt sick to his stomach. Then he spit it out, only to see that he spit out a bunch of things that were still wriggling. Take a closer look,! Frogs, earthworms? What is this? Could it be the stuff I ate last night? Isn't that a soul snatched away? How can it be physical?
Vomit! It's disgusting, what is this!
After vomiting, Lan Qi came to the restaurant and wanted to vomit when he saw the noodles. So I still ordered something to make myself look less disgusting, after eating. Lan Qi finally felt comfortable: "Comfortable!" Eat your fill! ”
After eating, Lan Qi returned to the grass shed and asked the system: "System!" Why, was there a ghost market at that time? ”
After a while, the system said slowly: [According to the data query, the ghost market is generally only accessible to people who can see ghosts. Whether unintentional or intentional, the ghost market will lure you in at night. Usually they don't kill people, presumably because of your special body. 】
"Hey! There is this problem, this trouble. By the way, are there fewer monsters coming to me around the corners of my mouth? Lan Qi, who only reacted at this time, seemed to feel that there were not as many ghosts as there were the days before yesterday.
[Now you have three pieces of equipment and two pieces of defense equipment.] And a sword! 】
Lan Qi was also confused, would he not have such a piece on him soon? Suddenly, he saw the string of Buddhist beads he was wearing on his wrist, and then he reacted. That's the other one? "Two pieces of armor? Which two? Will you be wearing this robe soon? Well? ”
No wonder there have been fewer monsters recently, it turns out that it is because of this Buddha bead. It seems that this is really a good thing.,It seems that as for the monsters encountered, the system has to clean up.。 Didn't the system say that this bracelet and the plus can only resist some weaker ghosts. If you encounter a strong one, you will definitely have to let the system come. Otherwise, I don't know how I died!
Now that I'm on the second day of rest, it feels the same as not resting. Still so tired, speaking of which, what was the three-headed ghost last time: "Hey, system." What was that three-headed ghost you met last time? ”
[The three-headed ghost is formed by the combination of three people after death! 】
"That's it...... Gone? Lan Qi said that the system only said this, and then asked.
It can be heard that this system is really a little helpless. I'd rather say a lot of nonsense than explain the story of this monster to him: [I don't want to say, it's troublesome to explain to you, the elm head. So you don't want to explain, you just need to know how it came to be. 】
Why is that? I think I'm pretty smart, why do I have an elm head? "Ah......h
