Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Hungry Eats
"Of course, the hungry ghost likes nothing more than to enjoy the desperate cries of humans before eating."
"Relying on human blood, the power of radical ghosts, they have become extremely evil ghosts, which is why hungry ghosts can exist in this school for so long, and no ordinary Taoist monks dare to come in to recover and cast spells!"
The ghost old man knew a lot, so I couldn't help but ask him: "What about you, have you also eaten people?" ”
After asking, I suddenly felt a little stupid, how could I ask the ghost old man the truth.
You can't fully believe the words of the devil.
But the ghost old man was surprisingly honest, he said calmly: "I have eaten human flesh, and the rule of this ghost village is that ghosts who have never eaten human flesh cannot live here, and will be eaten by the same kind as a plate!" ”
"I can't break this rule!"
After he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly shot coldly to the door, and I looked in his direction, and saw a little girl in red, staring at me with a pale face.
I seem to have heard what the old ghost man just said!
I took a few steps back in horror, and then I saw the ghost old man immediately wave away the little girl in red.
The little girl smiled weirdly at me before leaving.
Makes my heart beat a few beats faster.
"It's okay, that little girl didn't hear the news, she just came to my door curiously."
The ghost old man closed the door directly this time, regardless of whether he was curious or not?
For me anyway. The little girl in red is also listed as the target of my key prevention!
In order to survive, I have to have an extra eye on everything.
After that, I didn't sleep one night in the ghost village, and while I was always on guard against the ghost old man, I also had to avoid the ghost coming up and knocking on the door during the period, and the act of coming in.
It wasn't until the old man came back from outside that on the third night, the ghost knocked on the door.
When the ghost old man came back, the corners of his mouth were stained with blood, and he looked pale, as if something had happened?
"What's wrong?" I asked him strangely.
The old man didn't answer me, but told me, "Boy, there will be a meat feast in the ghost village tonight, and you have to go there when you arrive, and no matter what happens during this time, you have to endure it." ”
He doesn't need to be prompted for his meat feast. I knew it was human flesh.
Probably the meat of the unlucky guy last night.
Thinking of this, my stomach churned and I almost didn't throw up.
That night, the night sky was dark and the surrounding was foggy, and after I followed the ghost old man out, I saw ghosts lining up around a large group of high green bonfires. Two thighs were roasted, and a few human heads were floating from the soup boiling in the pot.
The ghosts around him all had their tongues stretched out, and their eyes were staring greedily at the pot.
I almost didn't throw up, but I couldn't, and if I vomited, it would be equivalent to revealing my identity, and I would be treated as an alien.
I forcibly resisted my vomit, followed the ghost old man to a pot, and watched a few rotten ghosts emit a stench, which made me even more uncomfortable, and the ghost old man put my boiled fingers in the bowl and handed it to me.
"Eat, get used to eating, it's the ghost here!"
The ghost old man deliberately said this to me, so that the ghost next to him coaxed: "It turns out that this is the new ghost who just came!" ”
"Eat it! If you don't eat it, you'll be slaughtered by us! ”
They have terrible words in their mouths, but their expressions are smiling.
Even the ghost old man next to me gave me a look and reminded me to eat it quickly, so I had to patiently pick up my fingers inside, and when I was about to stuff it into my mouth, my hand was hit coldly, and even the contents of the bowl and chopsticks were spilled on the ground.
The moment the human flesh fell to the ground, I felt that the breath around me was filled with a cold aura, and then the ghost old man hurriedly played a round for me, picked up more pieces of human flesh and stuffed it into my mouth.
But halfway through, I was knocked off by a small hand, this little hand was the little girl in red from the ghost village last night, her cold eyes shot straight at me, and said emotionlessly: "Don't be reckless, no one can resist instinctive rejection." ”
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding ghosts quickly gathered and walked towards me.
Because of the words of the little girl in red, everyone in the ghost village stared at me with suspicion.
I trembled a few times with stage fright, but I still tried my best to maintain my composure.
Then a small hand holding an eyeball appeared in front of me, and quickly shoved it into my mouth, and I swallowed it at once.
Vomit! Vomit! I subconsciously picked my throat and spit on the ground, but nothing came out. Unconsciously shouted in his mouth: "Delicious!" ”
I don't know if I said this unconsciously, or because of the word "delicious", the group of ghosts around me suddenly dispersed, along with the rotten ghosts on the side of the pot, and also guarded the surrounding human flesh pot, for fear that I would snatch it.
I looked up and saw the little girl in red leaving, and the ghost old man breathed a sigh of relief and quietly explained to me: "Fortunately, you reacted in time, otherwise it would have been over." ”
But what he didn't know was that even I didn't know if he said that sentence himself, so he blurted out and saved my life in time?
I patted my chest in fear, but the cold hairs on my back still stood on end, and my scalp was numb, so that the skin on my arms got goosebumps, and this obvious human sign made the little girl who had left me go and come back.
Seeing the child running towards me with curiosity and excitement, I wondered if they were their kind at all times, wondering if I was their kind.
Now the adult ghost hasn't noticed it, but the little ghost has found out.
The little girl in red flashed to my side in an instant, grabbed my arm with her little hand, and when she saw the goosebumps on my body, her eyes were shining with wolf light, saliva began to appear from the corners of her mouth, and the two fangs that opened her mouth were about to bite into my hand.
At the critical moment, I grabbed a piece of meat in the pot of human flesh regardless of the heat, stuffed it into the little girl's mouth, and stuffed it hard, for fear that she would open her mouth to reveal my identity and make me more dangerous.
My move made the ghost old man cooperate next to him, shouting: "Little doll, don't rob it, I'll give it to you too!" ”
This made a few ghosts who were still paying attention to my movements just now quickly turn their heads and eat meat for fear that some kind of people would come to grab it.
"This is the greed of a hungry ghost, you hurry up and take this little ghost baby back to me!"
The ghost old man reminded me in a whisper, and I immediately picked up the little ghost baby and ran to the ghost old man's house.
I had barely run a few steps behind me when I heard the old ghost start shouting to the other ghosts, "That new ghost seems to be a human!" I've been deceived, the human has kidnapped the ghost baby, go and call the ghost village chief! ”
He suddenly demolished me, and I don't know what he meant? It made me feel very angry, and sure enough, the ghost couldn't fully believe it!
