Volume 1 The First Arrival Chapter 61 The Soul Stone Was Stolen
I turned my head to see that the person who came was somewhat familiar, and I filtered it in my mind, and suddenly I thought of someone.
Isn't this the second shopkeeper who persuaded me to leave outside the tavern before?
"What?" I asked, and the shopkeeper looked at me with interest and said, "Benefactor, can I go with you?" ”
"Together? What do you mean, you're going to follow me? I looked at him in surprise, only to see him wrying and saying, "Hmm! I want to learn from my benefactor! ”
I turned around and left, saying, "I can't protect you, I can't even protect myself, and if you follow me, you may pay with your life." ”
The shopkeeper said in a calm tone: "What are you afraid of, I've already died once, even if it's really gone, I'm not afraid to follow my benefactor!" ”
I said, "You're not afraid of me, you're still going to be your shopkeeper." ”
"Benefactor! I don't want to stay in a small town forever, I'm a ghost with ideals and ambitions, and my goal is to reach the peak of ghost life! I'm going to let all the ghosts know me! ”
I turned to him and said, "Good! This ideal is great enough, I will top you! ”
In this way, I took the shopkeeper towards the peach forest that Long Yuan said.
The name of the shopkeeper is Zhou Bao, a very festive name, not long after he died, he is a modern person, a dead person in the 80s, and he can be regarded as using a common language.
Tuesday Bao asked, "Benefactor, where are we going?" ”
I replied, "I don't know, but I only know the directions." ”
After speaking, I pointed ahead, which was the direction given by Long Yuan, and I could walk in this direction to the peach forest.
Zhou Bao looked in the direction I pointed and said, "Benefactor, if you go further, you will pass through a few towns, but eventually you will pass through Shuntian Prefecture and reach Weihai Prefecture." ”
It turned out that the place I had been staying in was Shuntianzhou, so I continued to walk forward, and then Zhou Bao continued: "Shunhai City is the only way to Weihai Prefecture, because Weihai Prefecture is surrounded by water, and Shunhai City is the only place connected to Weihai Prefecture and Shuntian Prefecture. ”
According to Tuesday Bao's introduction, Weihai Prefecture is basically a state surrounded by the sea, while Shunhai City is a city built on the sea, and it is also the only place connected between the two states.
It is unrealistic to cross the sea, because the sea of the underworld is not as good as the yang, and the sea of the underworld is full of fierce beasts and monsters, and it will be wiped out at every turn, and Shunhai City may have its own wanted warrant, which is really a dilemma!
Straw Town is still a short distance from Shunhai City, and we walked forward on foot, just like Journey to the West, but the only difference is that when we reached the location after a lot of hardships, what awaited us was not to become an immortal or a Buddha, but to become a greater difficulty.
Tuesday Bao is indeed an ideal and ambitious ghost, even if he has never left Straw Town, but he has a clear understanding of the surrounding population gathering places, I have been in the underworld for so long and I don't know what state I am in.
Zhou Bao pointed to the front and said: "Benefactor, after ten miles of road, there is a village with a population of thousands in front, and after that village, about thirty miles further forward is Shunhai City." ”
I nodded and said, "Let's go to the village first, and now we have to think about how to spend Shunhai City." ”
"What? Wouldn't it be better to just walk over there? "Tuesday Bo looked confused, he didn't understand what I meant, and I didn't tell him about my wanted.
I said to Tuesday Bao: "Erbao, my identity is a bit special and I can't show up in the city, so let's study how to spend Shunhai City without showing up." ”
Tuesday Bao didn't have any doubts, and directly gave a thumbs up and said, "Heroes, there should be a different life!" ”
"Hmm...... Ahem, it's over. I said modestly.
We came to this village, although it is a village, but the village of thousands of people is really not small, walking on the street feels like walking in the market, passers-by come and go, street vendors, taverns pulling people.
I looked at Tuesday Bo with a slightly tired face, and I said, "Let's go, let's go in and have some wine before leaving." ”
Tuesday Bao said excitedly: "Really! That's great! ”
It turned out that Tuesday Bao was really hungry, although there were a lot of dishes ordered, but Tuesday Bao's appetite was greater, and the wine and food mixed with fatigue were swallowed by Tuesday Bao in his stomach, Tuesday Bao put down the dishes and chopsticks, and smiled at me: "Benefactor, I'm full, let's go." ”
I said, "Don't worry, it's getting late, let's rest here for the night." ”
Tuesday Bao said: "Everything is up to the benefactor." ”
Although I told him not to call me that, Tuesday Bao said: "You are my benefactor, the benefactor of our town, I have nothing to repay with the town, only a 'benefactor' to express my heart!" ”
I didn't say anything more, whatever you want.
We stayed in the inn, of course, it had to be a room for one person.
I took the parcel off and carefully counted the contents of the parcel, which were extremely important and precious except for money.
The two cheats that Meng Ci gave me have not yet learned, and the drawing tools brought by the Yang World are precious, as well as the soul stones given to me by the two old Red Army soldiers before.
I put the Long Yuan Sword on my right side and lay on the bed and slept in my clothes.
Early in the morning, Tuesday Bao was waiting for me early, I counted the contents of the package again, and after making sure that it was correct, I continued to set off towards Shunhai City.
I was walking down the street with Tuesday Bao, and then I noticed that there were begging spirits in the underworld, like beggars on TV, holding broken bowls and a walking stick, constantly wandering around passers-by.
And I also found that these beggars were not far apart, and I sneered, because the practice of using compassion has existed since ancient times.
After a while, a kind soul put a beggar in a beggar's bowl, and at the same time, all the beggars around him surrounded him, and kept shouting to the man: "Uncle, okay, give some money for food, I haven't eaten for three days, and the good man has a safe life!" ”
The ghost was in full view, and for the sake of face, he had to give each beggar the money, and finally left the place quickly, while the beggar continued to beg, and the same words.
"Hey, how do you walk, don't you look at the dots!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded across from me, and it turned out that I had just been so focused on watching the beggar begging that I had forgotten to look at the road ahead, and I had collided with a ghost.
The ghost said to me, and I said, "I'm sorry. Then he walked on.
But this is, Long Yuan's voice sounded in my head: "Boy, your things have been stolen!" ”
I immediately turned my head to check the package on my back, and found that the package had been cut a small hole, and the money in it was missing, and the soul stone was missing.
This is, gang crime!
The ghost I bumped into just now was in the same league as the ghost who stole my things.
Tuesday Bao looked at me with an unnatural expression, and then he noticed a cut in my backpack.
Tuesday Bao immediately shouted: "Benefactor, your things have been stolen!" ”
"I know." As soon as I finished speaking, Zhou Bao looked around, found a 'handy' guy directly from the ground, and chased after the ghost who had just collided with me!
This Tuesday Bao is also quite socially experienced.
However, I was also anxious when I lost something, so I immediately sorted out the package and followed Tuesday Bao to chase the thief who stole something.
It doesn't matter if you have money or not, but the soul stone that the old Red Army gave me must not be lost!
Because it carries a story and remembers a relationship!
Most of my cash has been recharged by me into the guide, only 10,000 cash, and those thieves have probably stolen about 7,000, which can be regarded as capable.
The thief's speed was not very fast, and I could easily catch up, but he relied on his familiarity with the village to keep shaking off me and Tuesday Bao, and it wasn't long before he disappeared at a fork.
"Benefactor, let's split up!" Tuesday Bao said.
I nodded and said, "Erbao, money doesn't matter, but they stole that stone and must take it back, if you see them, tell them, that stone is worthless, but it means a lot to me!" ”
Zhou Bao nodded solemnly and said, "Understood, benefactor!" ”
So we split up and chased after each other, he went to the left and I went to the right, agreeing to meet at the fork in the road.
Since the ghost's yin aura was not particularly strong, the Ghost Seeking Talisman could not target him at all, and I could only rely on my eyes and feelings to find it.
As it turned out, I didn't feel right at all.
I walked along this fork in the road, and finally, I came to a dead end.
If I didn't find the thief, it proves that I went wrong, and the thief took the same path as Tuesday Bao.
I went back to the fork in the road, and I didn't follow this road to look for Tuesday Treasure, because I didn't know if there were other forks in the road, and if I went in hastily, I might pass by Tuesday Treasure.
I waited silently at the fork for Tuesday Bao, for a long time, I still didn't see Tuesday Bao, I was a little worried, I was pacing back and forth at the fork, no! I was careless!
They are a gang crime, and Zhou Bao is unarmed, how can he be their opponent!
I can't wait here anymore, I'm going to go in and find Tuesday Po!
I got up and walked towards the intersection, which was as I had imagined, intricate, winding, and easy to get lost.
I came to a fork in the road again, and I looked around, and I was looking for something, something that I didn't even know what it was.
Finally, I found the thing, which was a 'two' written on the side of the road, a mark made by Zhou Bao, proving that he was on this path.
Tuesday Bao has a lot of social experience, and he must have experienced some moments of life and death to understand social skills so well.
I immediately walked towards the road, and again at a fork in the road, I found the mark again.
After walking for a long time, I felt that I had gone from a place of concentration of people to a wilderness, and the rest of the area was barren except for a road and a few houses scattered in front of me.
And I heard the sound of beating and scolding coming from a house in front of me, and listening to the sound, it seemed that there were four or five ghosts.
"Grass! Be nosy, isn't it, is it your thing, you just chase Lao Tzu here, be a hero, and today Lao Tzu will let you be a hero! ”
"This kid is so thin that he chased the two of you all over the village, it's not a shame!"
"Hey, don't mention it, I ran away as soon as I got my hands on it, no matter how many people are chasing after me, if you know it's him, I'll have turned around to get him a long time ago!"
For a moment, I heard four voices, and then I heard a fifth.
"Give me back that stone! That stone is worthless, take the money, and return the stone to me!" ”
This is! Tuesday Po's voice!
I walked slowly towards the house, and then I heard a voice again: "It's worthless, haha, I just like worthless things!" ”
"Since you said it's worthless, then we can't ask for it, so let's do it, we took a stone from you, and now we give you a bunch!"
At this time, Tuesday Bao's voice sounded again: "Don't! ”
"Ahh ……”
I heard a knocking sound, and when I walked into the courtyard, I saw Tuesday Bao lying on the ground, holding something in his hands, and four ghosts standing beside him, one of them was holding a big rock and smashing Tuesday Bao's hand, and he and the three ghosts were punching and kicking Tuesday Bao.
I immediately picked up a stone and threw it directly at the ghost who was holding the stone.
"Bang!"
The stone slammed into the ghost's head, sending him flying away, and I ignored the three ghosts' reprimands and walked forward slowly.
The other three ghosts saw that I was menacing, and the ghost flew up inexplicably, and they suddenly felt scared for a while, only to see the ghost who had collided with me before trembling and pointing at me and saying, "Don't come here!" I'll just give it back to you! ”
As he spoke, he put the money he had stolen from me on the ground, and then he was about to leave slowly.
I came to Tuesday Bao's side, and after watching him almost deform, I resisted the anger in my heart.
"Don't leave any of them!"
I shouted at the three ghosts who wanted to leave, and the three ghosts were so frightened that their legs went limp, and they couldn't help but sit on the ground, and the ghost I knocked away was slowly leaking yin qi from the wound on his chest, and if I didn't treat him in time, I was afraid that he would be wiped out.
Because the blow I just hit has already fatally wounded him.
It stands to reason that in the underworld, there is usually no soul that dies in ashes, because in the underworld there are already people who are too dead to die.
But as long as you master the method, it won't be a problem to kill again.
Previously, in Straw Town, the death of the two girls was due to the burning of the Yang flame in the talisman seal, and the usual way to kill the soul of the dead was to use the Yin Qi to break the spirit body of the dead soul to store the Yin Qi, once the spirit body was broken and not repaired in time, the Yin Qi would slowly escape, just like bleeding to death.
This is also the reason why ordinary revenants do not use Yin Qi, otherwise, the dungeon must be in chaos.
Zhou Bao looked up at me, smiling with difficulty, he held the thing in his hand with his almost deformed hands, handed it in front of me, and said, "Benefactor, I got it back." ”
His hands could no longer be opened, his legs were also broken, and he needed to repair the spirit body, so I took the soul stone and said to him: "Erbao, rest well, I will take you to repair the spirit body after I finish dealing with these few miscellaneous pieces." ”
"Benefactor ......"
Tuesday Bao choked up and couldn't say anything, I gently put Tuesday Bao down, and Tuesday Bao kept choking and didn't say anything.
I looked at the three ghosts with anger and screwed their heads off raw, because I didn't want to waste time on the crumbs.
After losing their heads, their yin qi instantly burst out of their bodies, and it didn't take long for them to turn into ashes and disappear into the underworld.
I picked up another stone and threw it at the head of the remaining ghost, ending his life of sin.
Then I picked up the money and walked slowly towards the village with the Tuesday Treasure on my back, hoping that there would be a store in the village to restore the spirits.
Although the Yin Qi of the Zhou Bao will not disappear, the severe pain from the spirit body cannot be endured.
But Tuesday Bao was like a fool, he didn't know how to say anything when he was in pain, so he endured it and kept silent.
I carried him through the village, and finally found a shop to repair spirits in a corner.
"Doctor, quick, help him fix his body." I carried Tuesday Bao to the house, and the doctor looked at Tuesday Bao's strange hands, couldn't help frowning, and said, "Hey, you can't do this." ”
I thought about it for a moment and knew why he was not doing well.
I took out the more than 7,000 bills, slapped them on the table with a bang, and said to him, "Don't worry, money is not a problem!" ”
The doctor's eyes were as wide as brass bells, he had been here for so long, and he had never seen so much money, he immediately said with a smile: "Easy to do, easy to do!" ”
As he spoke, he was about to reach out and take the money away, but I pressed my hand directly on the money and said to him, "Save people first." ”
He said repeatedly: "Oh yes, yes, save people first, save people first!" ”
Saying that, he walked into the back infirmary with Tuesday Bao in his arms, and Tuesday Bao looked at me, and I said to him: "Don't be afraid, go in, I'll wait for you outside." ”
Tuesday Bo nodded.
After a while, Zhou Bao walked out intact, and he smirked and said to me: "Benefactor, that little paper figure is really amazing, my injuries are all healed."
I smiled and said, "It's fine if you're okay." "I walked up to the doctor with that wad of money.
The doctor was about to take the pile of coins happily, so I immediately pulled out one and handed it to him, then turned to Tuesday Bao and said, "Erbao, let's go." ”
"Wait a minute, this guest officer!"
I turned my head to look at him, why did I still call the guest officer, and I said, "Is there something wrong?" ”
The doctor looked at a piece of dark money in his hand and said slowly: "This money, that's not what I said before." ”
I put the rest of the money away, stared at him and said, "Oh, what did you say before?" ”
I see that he is not good at words, and he seems to want to be strong.
