Chapter Twenty-Six: The Official Comes to Check the Stall!
Huang Jun...... Let's go back quickly...... There may be a lot of poisonous insects in this mountain village. It feels dangerous......"
Jiang Yiyi stood at the entrance of the mountain village with a thick melancholy on her face, looking like she didn't want to go in.
After they separated from Fan Ren, they originally planned to go back to Mingzhou directly. The snakes really scared the students who lived in the ivory tower, so Huang Jun, the organizer of the event, proposed to take a shortcut back to Mingzhou and walk along...... And they got lost. When he was about to collapse emotionally, he found a raging fire and came here.
"Huh! Yiyi...... Schoolmate. Rest assured, aren't we lost...... Spend the night here and return to Mingzhou after dawn. Isn't it nice? ”
said. Huang Jun took the lead. One foot stepped into the entrance of the village.
Chen Ting walked to Jiang Yiyi's side and bumped Jiang Yiyi's waist with her elbow: "So, none of these men are reliable, but we can't go back so late now." When I return to Mingzhou tomorrow, I won't have anything to do with this group of people in the future. ”
Jiang Yiyi nodded, biting her lip and not knowing what she was thinking: "I know cousin." ”
Chen Ting beckoned back gently. opened his mouth and said, "Ling'er, you come over too." Let's go into the village and rest. ”
The last person, the woman known as Ling'er, shook her head: "You guys go first...... I looked around for herbs. Wait a while, and I'll be reconciled with yours. ”
Without waiting for Chen Ting to answer, he immediately turned around. Go in one direction.
"Hey! Ling'er! Lan Ling'er! ”
looked at Lan Ling'er's back as she walked away. Chen Ting stomped her feet angrily, and muttered, "One or two don't let me worry." ”
……
"Young Master Ren, look. Those are not the college students we just met. ”
Step into a ghostly town. Fan Ren and Xie Miao deliberately restrained their breath. It was not discovered by one ghost after another. The two of them were patrolling around, estimating the possibility of boiling this group of ghosts, and they saw people who didn't want to see them...... In fact, at this time, they can say that they don't want to see anyone.
Xie Miao looked in that direction, and finally determined that those people were indeed college students who had just escaped, Xie Miao smiled coldly and shook his head: "These people are really ...... Not a long memory......"
After walking in for a while, Xie Miao saw an interesting scene. Immediately, he couldn't help but lower his voice and laughed out loud.
I saw that the group of college students were strolling through the stalls. There was a boy with a food box in his hand and didn't know what he was eating.
"Huh! Master Jen. Guess what he's eating? ”
Fan Ren rubbed his aching head and sighed: "It's nothing more than something that has changed like a toad lizard, and if you're lucky, you can eat something that isn't too problematic like dirt." If only he could get out alive tonight. At most, one serious illness is there. Let's hope he won't be so unlucky that he dies."
As a young man who has read Journey to the West, Fan Ren naturally knows the food made by such a ghostly stall. It's essentially a thing, although its appearance has changed. The taste has changed. But the essence will not change, and the average person will get seriously ill at most if he eats this kind of thing. Not life-threatening.
But this is also limited to the food itself. As a ghost. When trading with people. The price paid by humanity is not limited to money. It often comes with its own vitality. Luck, and even longevity.
Therefore, like Huang Jun, he makes a big deal with ghosts, and after a serious illness, if he is lucky, he does not die. There is also a period of bad luck.
And now. Fan Ren could only mourn for Huang Jun in silence.
……
Huang Jun felt that he was still relatively lucky, although he didn't find his way back, but he successfully ran into the rumored natural village.
The villagers here are hospitable, and it seems that there is still some kind of celebration going on, and they don't know what the pastries on their stalls are made of...... It's so delicious!
It's a pity that except for myself, the other people don't have much appetite...... Is...... I don't know how to enjoy life.
As they walked, a group of five people came to the only hotel in the village. Five rooms were opened, ready to rest.
……
Huang San is an evil ghost from the underworld, born more than a hundred years ago. Before his death, he was a businessman who did some small business, and he accumulated a lot of family business by relying on cheating, abduction, and shoddy.
It's a pity that because I ate my own salted fish mixed with poisonous salt, I kicked my legs and arrived at the underworld. Because the responsibility for the sins committed in his life was too heavy, he was sent to hell to be punished.
Later, I heard from my fellow inmates on the same floor. It seems that every once in a while, some big people will secretly send evil ghosts to the yang world, and Huang San, as a profiteer, doesn't know what way he has found, and he really got the opportunity to return to the yang.
thought that after returning to the yang, Huang San could show his strength and harm the living as much as he wanted. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be like death. It's muddy, and it's completely involuntary. Unconsciously, Huang San followed the large army to the deep mountains.
That's called a deserted place.
It's just deserted...... There are beasts of prey on this mountain.
Of course. As a ghost, the ordinary beast Huang San would not be afraid at all, but when he was a human for decades, he had been a ghost for decades, and no one of his kind had told him...... Beasts can eat ghosts, too!
Originally, there were two or three hundred ghosts in the team including himself, but after entering Guiming Mountain, for various reasons, there were thirty or forty ghosts. Huang San couldn't believe this situation.
Good thing after settling down. Originally thought that no one would approach the deep mountain, there were really a few stupid forks, and one of them also traded with himself, feeling the huge vitality he had absorbed, Huang Sanmei lowered his head and counted the money.
……
"How do you sell this squid!"
Just as Huang San lowered his head to settle the vitality he had absorbed, a voice came. When Huang San heard this voice, a smile like a daisy bloomed on his face...... Another fool has come to the door......
It's just that after Huang San raised his head, the shovel in his hand fell to the ground.
Seeing the two humans with demonic smiles on their faces in front of him, Huang San's eyes widened, and he used the largest decibel in his life. The most miserable voice, the highest intonation. shouted out the words in his heart: "Mom! Run!! ”
"The official is here to check the stall!!"
Suddenly, after a burst of hula sound, before Fan Ren and the others could react, the two dozen stalls around them were emptied in an instant.
"Hoo ......"
A cold wind blows the fallen leaves. Bring a hint of normal coolness.
Fan Ren looked at the small col that was empty. Turn your head. looked at Xie Miao with some embarrassment, and said in disbelief:
"Student Xie...... Do you think I'm that scary? ”
