Chapter 13: Nowhere to Run
"Oh, big brother, why are you here now, we're all off work." An eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl came over and grabbed Li Xian's arm and said, "But if you're fast, I can work overtime." But the price has to be good, at least two dollars of yang! ”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" A woman in her thirties apologized to Li Xian while pulling the girl away and scolded in a low voice, "Xiao Tian, are you dying to earn yang energy?" He used to be a staff member here, and I guess he's back for revenge! Didn't you sense his aura? At least from the earth-level Heavenly Rune! ”
The girl stuck out her tongue and hurriedly followed the woman away.
Li Xian found that when the half-ghosts in the club saw him, they all felt afraid.
But he didn't pay attention to them, he just walked straight to the secret room he was responsible for, the haunted house.
His character has always been, people don't offend me, I don't offend people, if people offend me, don't bother to pay attention to you.
But this is too lazy to care, and it also scores the situation, one is that you can't hurt the people I care about; The second is that you can't go too far, for example, now, others have taken their own lives, if you are too lazy to pay attention, you are a fool.
He guessed that the ghosts in the haunted house were there, and he was going to find out Xiaoqian's whereabouts from their mouths.
He wanted to ask her what kind of enmity he had against her! Why should she kill herself!
Since he has to live in this world as a half-ghost for a long time, he doesn't want to carry this confusion all the time.
The haunted house was in the deepest part of the club, and as he walked to the door, he heard a burst of reprimands coming from inside:
"Hurry up, don't be verbose, two money yang! It's been a night on our site, and I don't even want to pay this rent! Li Xian heard it at once, this voice was from the fat ghost.
"Big brother, your room is in the corner, it's too remote, I didn't get any guests last night, and I didn't make any money......" was a girl's voice about to cry.
"Less nonsense! In order for you to do business here, our brothers went out for a night, regardless of whether you sold it or not, the rent must not be less! "It's the old ghost's voice.
"Uncle, I don't have a card, I only have more than a penny of yang energy in my qi ......"
"Damn, you're also a serious human-level rune, and you don't even have a yang card!" The old ghost said, "Fat Wu, I sucked this money Yang Qi, and that money is what she owes you, let her pay you back in the future." ”
For half-ghosts who don't have yang energy cards, they can only trade with other half-ghosts through the sea of qi.
When trading, the receiver presses his hand on the payer's abdomen, and the payer takes the initiative to release his own qi sea, and most of the yang energy in it can be sucked away by the other party.
Of course, this kind of trading is limited to small transactions by low-level miscellaneous ghosts.
Normal transactions are actually the same as humans, with bank cards and POS machines.
"Forget it, you can suck it." The fat ghost known as Fat Wu, although he agreed, there was a lot of dissatisfaction in his tone.
As soon as the old ghost pressed his hand on the girl's abdomen, Li Xian walked through the wall.
"Boy, no, no, Brother Li, Brother Li Xian, your soul is not scattered-" When he saw Li Xian, Fat Wu was a little dumbfounded.
The old ghost, who was about to inhale yang energy, also looked at Li Xian in astonishment, and didn't dare to move.
Li Xian looked at the poor girl, and saw that she was skinny, had a vegetable face, and had a mediocre appearance - no wonder she couldn't receive customers at night.
"Every night from now on, this place will be yours." Li Xian said to the girl, "No one is allowed to charge you again!" ”
"Thank you, thank you, big brother!" The girl saw that all the ghosts were afraid of Li Xian, and knew that his words were useful, so she was so excited that she bowed to Li Xian again and again, "Big brother, my name is Zhang Juan, I will definitely report to you in the future!" ”
"It's okay here. Let's go. Li Xian waved at her.
The old ghost, fat Wu and other half-ghosts watched Zhang Juan leave happily, with a look of injustice on their faces.
"Young man, I sensed it, you are at least from a ground-level rune," the old ghost finally couldn't help but step forward and reasoned, "But you can't bully the weak, this territory has been occupied by us for several years, and it is not easy for us, the little yang energy we breathe during the day is only enough to survive, and it is all up to earning some extra money at night-"
"Yang energy is not a problem, I can give it to you." Li Xian glanced at the half-ghosts, "But you have to tell me, who is Xiaoqian?" What enmity do I have against her? Why did she kill me? Where is she now-"
Before Li Xian's words fell, the ghosts were shocked, and they scattered and fled with a "bang".
Li Xian doesn't chase other half-ghosts, he only chases Fat Wu.
Before the transformation, he had heard the name "Xiaoqian" from Fat Wu's mouth, and he believed that Fat Wu must have known.
Fat Wu first ran in the club, and was almost caught by Li Xian several times, so he became more and more panicked, and flew directly through the outer wall of the club.
At this time, it was about eight o'clock, and it was the rush hour for work, and every street in Qianshan City was crowded with cars and people.
And those half-ghosts who work as human beings, in order to hurry, are also flying in the sky at this time, and the density is comparable to that of flocks of migratory birds.
"Be careful!" Fat Wu is too fat, his actions are not as flexible as Li Xian's, and he bumped into the half-ghost who went to work in a hurry several times, and each time he would get an impatient and stern warning.
Ten minutes later, the two flew to the outskirts of Qianshan City.
Seeing that Li Xian was getting closer and closer to him, Fat Wu was anxious and plunged into the Qianliu Lake under him.
Seeing this, Li Xian was slightly stunned.
He couldn't swim when he was alive, and he didn't know if he was afraid of water with his current half-ghost body.
Seeing that Fat Wu had not shown his head since he entered the water, he had not shown his head for a long time, and he had not seen a trace of splash.
He frowned and flew straight in.
I didn't expect to fly underwater in a state of nothingness to be another interesting experience.
Unlike through a wall, when you go through a wall to the middle of a wall, everything around you is black.
But in the water, it is still a bright world, and the flight speed is only slightly slower than in the air, and from time to time there are schools of fish swimming in front of him, Li Xian gently touches them with his fingers, scaring them to bump around, but he can't see Li Xian at all.
Li Xian chased along the bottom of the lake for a while, and then saw Fat Wu's fat body.
The yang energy in the sea of fat martial qi is about to be exhausted, and the action is becoming more and more difficult.
"Big, big brother, I, I can't run!" Fat Wu raised his hand, "As long as you don't ask me about Xiaoqian, I'll tell you everything else-"
Li Xian didn't speak, walked over and grabbed his arm, dragged him straight out of the water, and threw him on the grass by the lake.
Miraculously, the clothes, which together with the body were transformed into a state of nothingness, were completely dry and did not get a drop of water.
"I'm not interested in anything else, I just listen to Xiaoqian's affairs." Li Xian looked at Fat Wu, who was paralyzed on the ground, and said coldly.
