Chapter 36: Pretending to be a ghost

I will never forget the tension of walking alone in the woods and still having enemies lurking in the woods!

Even if I was holding a rat in my arms, my heartbeat was still so fast that I almost didn't jump out of my throat...

Compared to me, the rat is a little calmer, at least not as scared as he was at first, staring at the little glasses, constantly scanning from side to side, looking very vigilant.

"Who?!"

Suddenly, someone in front of him shouted, and his tone was very suspicious: "Who is there??" ”

Hearing this voice, I stopped, resisted the fear in my heart, and replied, "Me! ”

Soon, several green dots lit up in the forest ahead, like the light emitted by fireflies, which looked very eye-catching.

Four, five, six, seven.... Eight! Eight points! That's supposed to be four people!

As soon as I stopped, the people also stopped, and seemed to be a little wary of me, and did not continue to 'press' closer.

"Who are you?"

"Like." I replied briefly, with my right hand behind my waist, clenching the coffin nails, and my left hand behind my waist, but clenching my fists, and my knuckles aching, trying to calm myself down.

"The same kind?"

The person who asked me just now opened his mouth again at this time, and asked very suspiciously: "Is it our kind?" ”

"Not necessarily." I replied, squeezing out a smile, "I seem to be a little different from you. ”

"You're not alive, are you?" The man asked me, his tone a little lost: "You have the smell of the dead, it's not the same as the living, it's not the same as us"

"What are you doing here?" Another person opened his mouth and asked me, "What are you holding in your arms?" ”

"I happened to be passing by, and I didn't expect to meet you," I sighed, "I'm holding my friend." ”

"Mouse is your friend?" The man was stunned.

"It's the same as us." I laughed.

Hearing my words, the man said with certainty, no, not at all.

"It smells like a beast, and the weasel we called some time ago also smells like it." The man asked me, "Are you going to eat it?" ”

"What are you eating it for? It's my friend."

As I spoke, I dropped the rat on the ground and walked slowly over to the men.

Every step is very steady, but with every step, my heart will be more empty.

When I walked in front of those people, I only felt that I couldn't breathe well, and my 'chest' was like being pressed against a stone, and I couldn't do it.

"How did you die?" I looked at the people in front of me and asked with a smile, "Are you ghosts after death?" It's not like me! ”

These four people are dressed like the two villagers we dealt with, 100% from Mao'er Village.

The villager standing at the front was an old man of about sixty years old, with white temples, but the top of his head was still black, with big earlobes but small eyes, and he looked like a thief.

The other three are all around 20 years old, and all of them have ordinary public faces, all of which have no characteristics.

"We're not ghosts." The old man smiled at me, not hostile in his eyes, just a little wary: "We are human. ”

"People?" I looked at them with a look of doubt, and asked, "Then why do you smell of dead people?" ”

The old man shrugged and said that the smell was stained.

"Are you a human or a ghost?" Another young man asked me, with a curious face, "You are similar to us, but the taste is different, where did you come from?" ”

"Outside the mountains." I said.

"Are you a ghost?" The old man asked me.

I thought about it and said, "I'm a demon."

Judging from the current situation, the brains of these unjust people are not easy to use, and of course, it can be said that the 'yin' body has successfully bluffed them

Thanks to the old man who helped me refine the 'yin' body, this is really a life-saving magic

If we don't have the protection of the 'yin' body, we will definitely have to face this huge trouble at this time

Don't look at them, there are only four of them, if they clean up us together, we will have to plant ten **!

"Demons?" The old man looked very surprised, but the vigilance in his eyes was gone, but he looked at me with some fear: "What kind of demon are you?" ”

"Corpse Demon." I shrugged my shoulders: "From the corpse, swallow the 'yin' qi, refine the yang qi, and then use the Tao to forge the 'flesh' body, and finally become like me." ”

"Corpse Demon ?!!" A young man shouted, "I've been to the temple!" I heard the old monk say that the devil is."

"Aren't you too?" I asked rhetorically, "Is it necessary to be so surprised?" ”

The old man glared at him, turned back to me and smiled at me and said, "Don't mind, the baby in the mountains has never seen the world, dare to ask the little brother your surname?" ”

Hearing this question, I subconsciously wanted to sign up, but after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was not appropriate, so I fooled around for a while in the name of the old man.

"My surname is Shen, and everyone in the industry calls me the Living Hades"

"Yo! This name is domineering! The old man smiled and stretched out his hand: "My surname is Zheng, and my full name is Zheng Shi." ”

I shook his hand and said goodbye politely.

"After all these years in the mountains, it's the first time we've seen a similar kind of you," Old Man Shi looked at me eagerly and said, "If you don't hurry up, can you go to the village to sit down?" I think we must have something in common! ”

I have to say, as soon as I heard Old Man Shi's words, I immediately panicked in my heart.

Could it be that this old thing has seen my true identity? Want to trick me into eating in the village??

But it shouldn't be!

If they really saw that I was a living person, they would have to do it now with their 'sex' that was almost like a hungry ghost beast.

"Going to sit in the village?" I frowned: "There is still a village in the mountains?" Why didn't I see that? ”

"Over there!" Old man Shi said, and eagerly pointed me in the direction: "Maybe you were in too much of a hurry and didn't notice, our village is there!" ”

I coughed twice and dared to ask him, "How do I feel like you have something to say?"

"Hey! I have nothing to say! Are you worried?! Old man Shi seemed a little anxious: "I have absolutely no malice in inviting you to the village as a guest!" The village is full of people like us! Just wanted to talk to you! ”

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

Old Man Shi hesitated for a moment, as if he was embarrassed to speak, and thought for a while before asking, "King Shen Yan, you also rely on cannibalism to cultivate?" ”

I shook my head and said no, I don't eat people.

"Then how did you become so powerful??" Old man Shi looked at me in surprise: "You look like a living person, more like us, I heard the village chief say that the more powerful the ghost, the closer you are to the living person, you must be better than us, right?" ”

"Let's be about the same, I can't compare to any other, anyway, I feel that you are similar to me" I smiled: "Speaking of which, I'm also curious, you don't look like you are practicing qi..... You all rely on eating human 'flesh' to cultivate, right? ”

Old man Shi snorted and said yes.

"Let's eat less." I sighed, pretending to be bitter: "I've heard the old-timers in the industry say that the more flesh and blood we eat, the more we look like beasts, look at you like this."

I pointed at them as I spoke.

"You're all out of shape! If you continue like this, you will suffer a catastrophe! ”

"The Great Tribulation?" Old man Shi was stunned, and asked me with some fear: "What kind of catastrophe?" ”

"Eating blood and 'flesh' gathers filthy qi in your body, and you are not ghosts refining qi, so these filthy qi will definitely not be dispersed." I sighed and said: "If the filth does not disperse, it will melt into your limbs and bones, so that you can get out of the human body's 'flesh' womb, and after a while, these filthy qi will also bring you thunder tribulation, just like those cultivating beasts in the three eastern provinces, a thunder will split your body and mind when it comes down."

The old man said that the immortal families in the Northeast have all been struck by thunder, without exception.

As far as Qiqihar is concerned, on average, dozens of cultivators have to be killed every year

"Oops!! Why didn't anyone tell us about this?! Old man Shi was immediately anxious, and asked me in a hurry: "King Shen Yan!" Do you have a way to save us?! ”

I hummed and said.

"Yes."
