Chapter Seventy-Seven: Engong
The husband felt a little strange in his heart, and he also felt a little curious.
Although there is no curfew here, who doesn't turn off the lights early and go to bed early to hug their wives and children on the hot kang at night, and who will run out to hang out when they are bored?
And there are quite a few of them!
Could it be that it is a guest from out of town?
Probably driven by the wine, he didn't think much about it, and went up to see what was going on, maybe he could lead the way to make a little money.
However, the other party walked towards the other end of the town, and on the contrary, he had just turned the corner, and the other party had already walked some distance, so he had no choice but to follow suit.
It's just that the closer he got, the more strange he felt.
The six thin figures in the middle carried a red-topped sedan chair, crooked but not much swaying, but it looked as if it would collapse in the next moment......
Looking at the backs of this group, the husband wanted to turn his face to see what these guys looked like, as if he was enchanted.
However, no matter how many blocks he walked, he was never able to catch up with the other party. I don't know how long I followed, but the husband stopped panting, and was about to rest for a while, and then his eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of the ground, and suddenly showed a frightened expression like seeing a ghost!
This group of people is actually floating away?!
No wonder he couldn't catch up, the other party just didn't touch the ground with his feet, and he was always floating and walking like a ghost!
At this moment, the figure walking at the back seemed to sense something, and slowly turned around, and it was the head of a large hairy gray mouse. A pair of dark eyes rolled, and glanced greedily at the graft who was frozen in place, and then withdrew his gaze, and quickly disappeared into the depths of the fog with the group......
"Ghost ...... Hell! ”
After a while, the husband finally came back to his senses, his face was pale and frightened, his legs instantly fell to the ground, remembering that he was running after the ghost like crazy just now, and he was so scared that he almost peed his pants!
At this time, Zhou Shize's home.
The husband and wife had already fallen asleep with their clothes together, and they were already asleep at this time. However, at some point, there was a crisp bell outside, accompanied by a joyful call from the girl: "Engong...... Eun Gong ......"
"Huh?"
This voice sounded a little familiar, Zhou Shize gradually woke up from his dream, but saw that the light outside the window seemed to be daylight, and the gongs and drums were noisy!
He was stunned for a moment, and when he looked down, he found that his body and his wife on the bed were still sleeping soundly, but he was now in a fluttering shape, as if the wandering soul had no body.
"Out of body?" He was amazed.
Compared to the previous time, his consciousness was clearer, and he could think clearly about everything in front of him, and he was more aware of the extraordinary things at this time.
At this time, there seemed to be something faintly attracting him outside, and he hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward to see what was going on.
In his soul state, he went straight through the wall, and the scene outside made him even more stunned.
I saw that the small courtyard outside was full of dozens of strange-looking "people", some with tiger heads and human bodies, some with human heads and snake bodies, and a few rats the size of children with their waists straight, holding small gongs in their hands, dancing and beating gongs and drums, as if they were celebrating and lively.
Such a bizarre and somewhat bizarre and inexplicable scene, if ordinary people see it, they may be scared to death on the spot. Thanks to the previous experience, Zhou Shize had some preparation in his heart, although he was still a little uneasy and frightened when he saw him again at this time, but he did not lose his sense of proportion.
And at the front was the girl in red who had met before, claiming to be the fox he had rescued.
"Engong, your good fortune has come!"
Seeing his surprised appearance, the girl smiled lightly and said softly.
"What do you say, girl?"
Zhou Shize frowned slightly, and asked.
He could vaguely feel that the other party had no malicious intent, but this sudden and headless appearance made him not understand the situation at all, and he was confused.
The girl naturally knew about it, so she explained it to him one by one, including that the purpose of their trip was to hire him as a teacher in the ghost town.
"Lessons for the demons?"
After hearing this, Zhou Shize's face suddenly changed, and his heart was full of strangeness.
If it weren't for the vixen's words, he would have thought that the other party was teasing him.
Greedy and bloodthirsty youkai also have lessons? This is not a big joke in the world!
However, at this moment, under the eyes of this group of monsters, it really doesn't look like a fake.
Just, is this really appropriate? Teach the culture of the human race to these blood-drinking demons?
He had some doubts in his heart, and hesitated for a moment.
Seeing this, the girl continued: "Engong, do you know why the concubine said that this trip is a blessing? ”
Zhou Shize was stunned, shook his head slightly, and looked at her curiously.
"That's because of the great pay you get for our lessons." The girl flipped her hand and said with a mysterious smile, "Whether it is gold or elixir, it is at your fingertips, I dare not say that it is immortal, and it is not a problem to prolong life for decades at all......"
Zhou Shize was unmoved, he had always been indifferent to them. What he believes in is whether he can live a more meaningful life in this life, not waste his time. If he had a heart for those wealth, why did he come to this wild land?
Seeing that his face remained unchanged, the girl secretly admired in her heart, and continued: "And...... Madame Zun's illness may be incurable in the human world, but for our demon clan, this is not necessarily the case. ”
As soon as these words came out, he saw that Zhou Shize, who had been unmoved, had a moving face, his eyes were staring at her tightly, and he was surprised but afraid that it was a fake complicated mood.
"That's it...... Seriously?! ”
"Seriously! As long as you are our teacher in the ghost town, your lady's illness is naturally not a problem. ”
The girl said with such a light smile, but there was some indescribable envy in her heart.
What a blessing it must be to have a husband who loves him so much......
Zhou Shize finally agreed, and the other party also promised not to let him act as a tiger, just teaching some cultural courses, coupled with his wife's illness, he did not hesitate anymore.
Slowly sitting on the sedan chair prepared by these monsters, he was still a little uncomfortable. He naturally sat on the sedan chair, but at that time, it was a person who carried the sedan chair, not a strange-shaped monster.
He tried his best not to squint, there was a dwarf rat spirit with thief eyebrows and mouse eyes on the front and back and left and right carrying the sedan chair smoothly, and several graceful banshees walked on the side singing and dancing, and the gongs and drums were noisy like a celebration, but the town was still calm with such a big movement, as if all sounds were cut off, and no one could hear it.
