Chapter 104: The Beast Attack (1)
Xiang Zixi shook her head helplessly, and Ji Yan looked at her with interest: "You don't believe it?" ”
Xiang Zixi really couldn't tell the other party that he was actually an atheist. Well, even if she believed it, she would rather believe that someone was playing tricks and scaring people.
Of course, it is not excluded to cover up other purposes of oneself and achieve the purpose of attacking the west.
At this time, the merchant who broke the news continued: "The third person who died, it was a bit mysterious, it was an old lady, because when this old lady was going to the grave, she accidentally stepped on a woodcut engraved with a divine beast, and then this old lady was magically choked that night. It is said that when her daughter-in-law changed her longevity clothes, she also found the woodcut of the divine beast that she had trampled on in her hand! ”
When the merchant said a word, those who listened shuddered.
The so-called profiteers, profiteers, businessmen who are not traitors and businessmen, how many businessmen who walk back and forth have not done anything about cheating? So, listening to it, everyone looked weird, and even some of them had cold sweat on their heads.
"The last one to die is called a miserable one!" This person said with a sinister face: "I heard that this person had done a sin before he died, he fell in love with a girl nearby, and he came to ask for marriage but was refused, and this person was resentful When this girl's parents were not at home, he gave this girl to ———— and then, this girl committed suicide in shame, and in the first seven days after this girl's death, this person also died, and his death was extremely miserable, as if something choked his throat, and he grabbed his chest to pieces!" Some people say that this mythical beast changed into the appearance of that girl, and then avenged that girl and took away that girl's soul in exchange! ”
Xiang Zixi shook his head while listening: "This has simply become a myth!" ”
"Looks like you don't believe much in these things!" Ji Yan ate quickly, and when others were still listening to the story intently, he had already finished his lunch.
Xiang Zixi replied while eating: "It's not very convincing!" In the first case, the unfilial son may have died of alcohol poisoning, the second businessman may have died of vendetta or robbery, and the third person is more normal and has died of life, nothing unusual, as for the so-called sacred beast woodcut in his hand, maybe it is just a toy engraved for his grandson? And the fourth, this kind of thing only happens in mythical ghost stories, and these mythical and weird stories are often not verified by everything. ”
Xiang Zixi's words immediately attracted the attention of other people who listened to the story, and when she saw that it was a little girl who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, she immediately bluffed and said: "This girl, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense, otherwise if you offend the divine beast, you don't know how she died!" ”
"Where are there so many ghosts and gods in the world, in fact, people make up their own to deceive themselves, especially ————" Xiang Zixi suddenly stopped when he said this, and the old immortal face of Yue Lao flashed in his mind, and he sighed in his heart, isn't this Yue Lao also a character who only appears in people's myths and legends? has not yet appeared alive in his own world, but also pulled himself from his own world to this space.
Could it be that there are really ghosts in the world? Isn't his own atheism untenable at all?
Thinking of this, Xiang Zixi's face turned pale!
Those people saw that Xiang Zixi's faces changed, so they believed in the saying that there were ghosts in the world.
Ji Yan also saw Xiang Zixi's face, and immediately smiled: "Huh? Didn't you just swear that there are no ghosts in the world? ”
Xiang Zixi's face turned even paler: "Ji Yan, if there are really no ghosts and gods in the world, then how can you explain what happened to me overnight?" ”
Ji Yan and Xiang Zixi looked at each other, and both of them found that each other's faces had become a little strange.
Yes, Xiang Zixi is obviously an incorrigible fat man, or a pockmarked face, as ugly as he wants. But overnight, all of a sudden, the ugly duckling turned into a white swan, and turned into a slender and flexible beauty with an extremely flexible body, how to explain this?
If this is told by someone else, probably no one will believe it, and most of it will be regarded as a joke. But this incident really happened to me, or even to myself, which can't be explained, right?
Especially Xiang Zixi, she was clearly kicked over by Yue Lao and crossed into this world, if there are really no gods and ghosts in the world, then what is herself?
Xiang Zixi lowered his head, took two mouthfuls of food in a panic, and lost his appetite anymore.
Ji Yanqiang smiled and comforted her: "It's okay, even if there are ghosts, don't be afraid!" We didn't do anything wrong! That beast, ah no, it's a divine beast, won't find it on our heads! ”
Xiang Zixi swallowed hard, I'm sorry, she really did something wrong! She's really afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night!
"Big brother, where did you last see this beast?" Xiang Zixi suppressed the anxiety and fear in his heart and asked the businessman who broke the news.
The merchant thought for a moment and said, "It seems that there is a nearby village called Baisong Village, which is not far from here, only about thirty miles. ”
Xiang Zixi felt that she was a little frightened, and turned her head to look at Ji Yan tremblingly: "Let's leave tomorrow!" ”
Ji Yan looked at Xiang Zixi's face was pale, and quickly nodded in agreement.
Xiang Zixi shivered, got up from his seat, and went upstairs with shivers all the way.
Looking at her appearance, Ji Yan couldn't help but smile and endure internal injuries. Well, even if there are beasts, are you so afraid? Just like Xiang Zixi said to himself, if it is artificial, then it is even less worth being afraid!
Xiang Zixi, who returned to the room, lay on the bed, pondering this matter repeatedly. Perhaps, there is really such a thing as a divine beast in the world! You see, this world is a world that is separated from the world from which it was and re-independent.
There are no more Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties here, and it is estimated that there is no Republic of China and the People's Republic of China anymore.
Since this world is not the world you know, what else is impossible? You see, although this world is very similar to your own world, there are still differences. For example, writing, for example, language, is also slowly evolving.
Thinking of this possibility, Xiang Zixi was even more restless.
The more scared he was, the more Xiang Zixi wanted to know what was going on with this divine beast. In his previous life, he was a female thief, and he was basically exposed to high-end technology, but he rarely touched these gods and monsters. And in this world, even if you are high-tech, you can't die, and you encounter such a supernatural event. With her usual curiosity, it wouldn't be her if she didn't go to see what was going on!
So, after torturing himself in bed for a long time, finally after dinner, Xiang Zixi bravely said to Ji Yan: "Ji Yan, do you have the courage to go to Baisong Village with me to see what this divine beast is all about?" ”
Ji Yan looked at Xiang Zixi in surprise: "Are you sure?" ”
Although Xiang Zixi's face was pale, he still nodded firmly: "If I don't figure it out, I will definitely lose sleep tonight!" ”
After most of the guests turned off the lights and went to bed, Xiang Zixi quietly appeared outside Ji Yan's room and knocked on Ji Yan's door gently.
Ji Yan gently opened the door, and was almost startled by Xiang Zixi standing in front of him!
I saw Xiang Zixi combing a pigtail, with a circle of garlic hanging around his neck, and a silver glittering cross in his hand kept chattering. Xiang Zixi saw Ji Yan open the door, looked up and smiled, almost scared Ji Yan in advance!
Xiang Zi Xi drew some ghost painting charms on her face, twisting and turning, completely painting her originally delicate face hideous!
"Xiangxiang? ————" Ji Yan tentatively opened her mouth, pointing to the ghost drawing charm on her face and the garlic on her neck, and asked with a little stuttering: "You, what are you, get that?" ”
Xiang Zixi mysteriously stepped forward, looked east and west, and whispered: "I've been thinking about it all afternoon!" I think this world is completely different from mine, so I judge that this so-called divine beast is most likely an unknown vampire! ”
"Huh? ————" Ji Yan glared, what is this talking about!
"This vampire is very afraid of holy water and garlic, but we don't seem to have a church in Yaoguo, so forget about holy water! Garlic can still be found, though! Xiang Zixi pointed to the garlic hanging around his neck, and said confidently: "I also considered that this might be an improved vampire, so I specially painted it all over my face according to the exorcism charm in the book, so that I would not be afraid of him mutating!" ”
"Wait, wait, I don't understand what you're talking about, can you tell me first, what is a vampire?" Ji Yan was about to go crazy: "What is holy water?" And what is this one you have in your hand? ”
"Ahh It's the same thing Jesus was crucified! Ahhh Vampires you know, right? It's a monster that specializes in drinking human blood! A bat during the day turns into a human at night! And then come out specifically to bite! The more Xiang Zixi talked, the more he felt that he was simply a genius, and sure enough, only after his own thoughtful thinking, the truth was immediately discovered by himself!
"You see, the first one who died was an unfilial son, the second one was a merchant in a carriage, the third was an old lady, and the fourth one was a rapist-criminal, did you find what these four people had in common?" Xiang Zixi looked at Ji Yan with blazing eyes, and after seeing the other party's blank face, he became more and more sure of his guess: "Stupid, that is, I was bitten by a vampire when I appeared alone!" ”
Ji Yan still didn't understand that what these four people had in common had anything to do with the strange words that Xiang Zixi said.
