Chapter 19: The Whereabouts of the Ghost Baby
The man recovered from the initial momentary shock, slowly stood up from the sofa, looked at me and said slowly, "Really? So who am I? ”
I stood at the door and put down my bag, and then found a random place to sit down: "You should have run out of the underworld!" As for the time, it should be a year ago when I broke into the underworld, and you escaped from hell during the chaos in it. ”
The man was stunned! Then he laughed out loud and looked at me wondering what he was thinking: "How do you know?" I watched as the person in front of me took out a piece of yellow paper from his pocket, and it read: Three hundred and thirty evil spirits have escaped from hell, and the ghost pawns of the underworld are pursuing them with all their might.
"Since you know about the fact that I once broke into the underworld, you should know that I have a special friendship with several yin handsomes in the underworld, so I just asked the underworld to find out. It's not unusual, as for why I know you're from the underworld, or maybe you're not careful enough when you speak. ”
I put the yellow paper on the table, then looked at the person in front of me and continued: "When I called Cen Si his wife, I only called it this in the underworld, and I didn't call it at all in the yang world, so when you said the sentence that killed the ninth ghost baby who killed your wife, I knew that you were from the underworld. ”
After listening to my words, the man looked at me and said with a hint of caution: "Then are you going to arrest me back, or notify the people in the underworld?" I looked at the person in front of me and shook my head, then slowly walked to the door and picked up the bag I had just dropped.
"I don't have such idleness to do, as long as you don't kill the people I know, tell me about the whereabouts of that ghost baby, and do whatever you like for the rest, what does it have to do with me! I'm here today to tell you that I won and for you to fulfill your promises. As I spoke, I pulled out a bottle of liquor and a bit of charcuterie from my backpack.
Then he took out two paper cups, poured two glasses of wine, looked at the person in front of him and said, "Drink?" The man or the ghost was stunned! It is estimated that he has never encountered such a thing in his experience for so many years, and a Mr. Yin and Yang with Taoist skills actually invited a ghost who ran out of the underworld to drink!
The ghost was a little overwhelmed for a while, and after being stunned for a while, he said stupidly, "How do you know that I like to drink?" I looked at him and took a sip of wine and ate something to himself, and replied, "How can a ghost have a glass of wine before killing someone, so you must be a ghost who likes to drink." ”
The ghost slowly walked across from me and sat down, then picked up the glass in front of him and drank the wine in one gulp, then closed his eyes with satisfaction, and I said without raising my head while eating: "Where you came from, it doesn't matter to me whether you hurt people or not, I don't care about these things at all."
All I care about is the whereabouts of the Ninth Ghost Baby, you tell me where he is, and we'll walk half the way to the sky. After that, I picked up the bottle and filled it with the ghost in front of me.
The ghost looked at the liquor in the cup and thought for a while, then said: "I know you because of what you caused in the underworld, and it is also because of you that I can leave hell, if you hadn't caused a mess in the underworld, I wouldn't have been able to come out when there were few guards in hell." ”
The ghost in front of him took a sip of wine and put down the glass and continued: "So I owe you a favor in this matter, and then I met you in the bar, I didn't recognize you at first, but then I remembered who you were, and I went back there to play such a game with you."
What I didn't expect was that you would find out my identity so easily, and it seems that I thought that you would definitely use Taoism to find me to make it like this. ”
I laughed: "You think I'll notify the people in the underworld to arrest you?" The ghost in front of him nodded: "Yes, I thought you would notify the underworld to arrest me, but I'm curious why you didn't do it?" I looked at him and said lightly: "Except for the Ninth World Ghost Baby, there is nothing that can interest me, and what you want to do has nothing to do with me, why should I inform the underworld?" What's more, I don't have a good impression of the underworld at all! ”
The man was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "Yes, the underworld has taken your wife to hell to be tortured, and you will definitely not treat them." "Okay, let's not talk nonsense, let's talk to me about ghost babies."
"Well, I'm not sure if the ghost baby is still there, because it was two months ago when I met him. Two months ago, I was eating and drinking in a rural village near Chongqing, because I didn't know what to do since I left the underworld and came to the yang world.
I'm not like other ghosts, I was greedy in life, and I didn't get rid of this problem after I died, so during the time after I came to the yang world, I went to various places every day, cheating on food and drink. On this day, I was looking for something to eat in a rural village, when suddenly a ghost was eating in the cowshed of a farmer's house.
So I went over and talked to him for a while, of course he ate the heart and liver of a cow, and on the way to chat, I learned that he was a ghost baby of the ninth generation. Because we are both ghosts, we don't have so many constraints when we talk. Soon, he told me his story.
And after I listened, I realized that you broke into the underworld, and he caused it. So I told him about your invasion of the underworld. The ghost baby was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then his face became not very good-looking.
I asked him what was wrong. He told me that he thought you would definitely look for him, because since he dared to break into the underworld, he would definitely not let him go. However, the two of us are friends in Pingshui, and I can't do anything against you for him, so the two of us talked for a while and then left.
That's why I know your story, it's been two months ago, and I don't know if he's still there. ”
After listening to his words, I did not speak, I was silent for about three minutes, I raised my head with red eyes, looked at him with bloodshot eyes, and said: "Tell me the address, even if there is only a slight possibility, I will go and see, and if I can find him, I will kill him with my own hands." ”
Without hesitation, the man gave me an address, then tilted his head and drank the wine from his glass. I stood up, swept the imp next to me with my peripheral vision, then looked at him again and said, "You have already promised to help this imp avenge it, so now that you have lost to me, how should this account be calculated?" ”
To my surprise, the man said very freely: "How else can it be calculated, I promised to help him avenge, but I didn't promise to help him when." So I waited for the day before that person's life was dying, and I went to kill him, so that it could be regarded as helping him take revenge! ”
After hearing this, I was silently speechless, there is really nothing that can explain the things between ghosts and ghosts. Anyway, that's not something I should worry about.
I picked up the bag on the ground and whispered to the man, "I'll leave you with that little wine and that little food, and I'll go." With that, he pushed the door and left the house. The ghost sat on the couch in the room, drinking from his glass, not knowing what he was thinking.
After leaving the room, I went back to the bar to get some things, took a taxi overnight, and went straight to the address that the ghost in front of me said, yes, I couldn't wait a moment, I wanted to find the ghost baby right now, and kill him!
It's just that maybe I wasn't lucky, or maybe it was the damn fate, and when I got to that address, I pounced. There was not a trace of yin qi in the entire village. The sun has gradually risen in the east, and I stood at the entrance of the village, looking at the rising sun, and my heart was a little mixed for a while.
It's just that I'm not depressed, for two months, this ghost baby can't still stay here, and it's normal to throw yourself into the air, but I still haven't given up, and I continue to turn around in the village. Walking around the village, I found that there were only three cattle families in the village.
I inquired a little to find out who died of a cow two months ago, because the cow is a very important thing in the countryside, and it can be said unceremoniously that if a cow dies, then the family will have a lot less income this year.
I pretended to be a veterinarian from the city, and I was going to do an inspection of the cowshed in the village, so I smoothly mixed into the cowshed of the family of the dead cow, because I didn't give up thinking that as long as this ghost baby had eaten here, it would leave a little bit of clues, and what I was looking for was this clue, as long as I found a little trace, I could follow these traces to find him.
I was in the cowshed, and I looked carefully for more than half an hour, and finally I found something in a corner of the cowshed, which was a piece of cow intestines only the thickness of the index finger, and there were bite marks on this cow intestine, and there was a familiar breath on this bite trace. It's the breath of that ghost baby, and I will never forget his breath until I die.
I picked up the intestines of the cow, wrapped them in paper and put them in the bag, I stood in front of the cowshed with the bag on my back and whispered: "Ghost baby, you run slowly, one day we will meet, and I don't think this day is too far away!" When I find you, I'll let you know that sometimes death really isn't the scariest thing! ”
