Chapter 358: Ghost Stories
"Story ......" The old lady was stunned for a moment when she heard Li Si's words, and then said with a wry smile: "Since you have already done it, why do you have to tell any story?" ”
Then she looked around, and the "little tree men" with the heads of children were fighting with the three of them, but they were no match for the three of them, and they were about to collapse at the first touch.
The child's tongue was like a soft sword dozens of meters long, and it could tear the nearby "little tree man" to pieces between the rolls, and the strong man was even more powerful, like a brute bull rushing into the "little tree man".
It's just that the "little tree people" who were hit were not knocked into the air, but were smashed into pieces.
Branches and blood flying.
As for the last woman, she didn't look good, but as soon as the ruler in her hand touched the "little tree man", the "little tree man" was immediately beaten to ashes, and it was by no means easy to mess with.
Seeing this scene, the old lady's eyes showed a look of pain, and her body trembled even more.
Li Si closed his eyes slightly, and after a while, he opened them and said with a smile: "But I still want to hear it, can you tell me about it?" ”
Hearing his words, the old lady hesitated, then sighed softly, and said, "Since you want to hear it, then I'll tell you about it."
A long, long time ago, there was a small family living here, and there was a concubine in this small family, because there was no elder to teach, he had been greedy for fun, abandoned his studies, wasted his life, and finally could only do the work of a paper weaver and opened a paper figure shop.
But not long after becoming a paper man, he died in an accident in this wilderness and became a lonely ghost.
Becoming a lonely ghost, he had a troubled conscience, so he thought of his own life, and made this paperweight, so that some playful children could be better taught, unlike him, who wasted his life.
I brought those children here for their own good, and I hope you will let me go. ”
"yes, that sounds like a good ghost." Li Si heard this? Sigh softly? Then he said with guilt on his face: "It seems that I killed the wrong ghost." ”
That being said, he didn't mean to let them stop at all.
Ghost conscience upset? Thinking too much, right? He didn't dare to make it up when he lied to the ghosts.
"Outlander, let your friends stop? Forget about here and get out of here? Treat yourself as if you haven't been here. The old lady nodded slightly? Then he looked at Li Si kindly.
"But I can't control these friends when they kill them, after all, I'm a human being, and they're ghosts? Where can they be managed? Li Si shook his head? There was a distressed look on his face.
"...... you" The old lady looked at Li Si in a daze, and she didn't know what to say for a while, she told him for a long time, but it was all in vain?
Li Si nodded slightly, and then his face turned cold? "And, I said it?" I don't listen to the nonsense, what do you say? How could I listen? ”
Hearing Li Si's words, the old lady's face gradually became gloomy? The body is not shaking? A pair of peaceful eyes are gradually darkening? Hansheng said, "How the hell did you find out?" ”
Li Si glanced at the old lady, shook his head slightly, and did not speak.
When they killed those tree nobles, he had actually obtained some of the memories of the tree ghosts, and in just a few moments, he had already read all the memories.
The old lady wasn't all false, at least the paper seller's shop was real, and the boss's experience was indeed true.
The only thing that's wrong is that there is one less person and some things are omitted.
After the concubine left his family, he married a wife, and then started a paper business.
At first, their business was not very good.
But after a few decades, they found a suitable buyer who needed a lot of paper figures and was willing to spend a lot of money.
It's just that the paper person that the buyer wants is a little different from the ordinary paper person, that is, the head cannot be an ordinary paper head, but a hydrangea.
After that, the wife of the concubine began to sell sugar chestnuts, and when she sold sugar chestnuts, she would "kindly" give some sugar chestnuts to some beggars to eat.
It's just that she put medicine on the sugar chestnuts she gave to the beggar, and once she knocked the child unconscious, she stuffed the child under the cart and pulled him home.
Then, she began to make hydrangeas, and the concubine buried the corpse.
They were meticulous and never found out.
The main thing is that those who die are beggars, no one cares, and if they die, they die.
Perhaps, after they die, the people in the village and town will feel much more comfortable.
When all the beggars on the street were gone, they were not greedy enough to target the children of ordinary people.
Sadly, it didn't take long for them to be discovered.
After all, the children of these villages and towns are not like those beggars, no one cares, they have parents who love them.
After they were discovered, they were beaten to death by the people of the villages and towns, and in the end the corpses did not become humanoids, but became a pile of meat sauce.
At the same time, the money they earned also led to an even more serious fight, with at least hundreds of casualties.
After that, the couple became ghosts because of resentment, and they started a paper figure business again in the wild.
It's just that this time, they did something bigger, they not only kidnapped children, but also began to raise children, so that they could give birth to more children.
This is the paper man town that Li Si saw before.
In fact, it is not easy to abduct children, after all, they are all protected by the land, and ghosts cannot easily enter the town.
However, it is different if there are greedy people, and the old lady before is a greedy person, using abducted children in exchange for life.
That's all there is to it.
As for the old lady in front of her now, she is actually a ghost, the old woman who makes hydrangeas. The grandmother in the nursery rhyme is actually her.
And the old lady from before, as soon as she entered the forest, was dropped.
"Tell me, how do you want to die, grandma." Li Si looked at the ghost thing in front of him and said coldly.
As he spoke, a tall figure suddenly appeared beside him, it was Yan Ling.
Xiao Duan and Qi Sanniang also came over this way.
The reason why Li Si asked this old lady to tell the story before was actually to delay time, so that they could kill the tree ghosts and free their hands.
This ghost thing, he is not ready to let go, let alone a ghost, even if it is a human, he will kill it as soon as possible.
"You ......" The old lady's face gradually turned hideous, she didn't expect that she wanted to deceive this person, but she lost her chance to make a move.
"Ah......h
Then she screamed, dug through the ground, and pulled out a person who looked exactly like her.
Then, she grabbed the old lady's neck and said coldly: "If you want to kill me, I will kill her!" Aren't you trying to save people? Then this old woman is seventy or eighty, are you going to let her die in front of you?
You've already killed my father-in-law, and that should be enough. Let me go, and I'll never do this kind of thing again. ”
When Li Si heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then laughed, but the killing intent in his eyes became more and more serious.
