In the hazy night, the moon has set, and the sun has not yet risen. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Only the sky was covered with a hint of fish's belly white, faintly bringing a touch of light to the dark blue earth.

In the silent hamlet, one figure after another, with their heads slightly bowed, walked out of their house and towards a house built on the hill at the foot of the grave mountain.

Inside the house, there is a narrow cave that is more than three trees high.

The two walls of the cave are smooth and flat, and they are inlaid with fist-sized fluorite, which dyes the whole cave with a layer of cyan halo.

Li Qing glanced at the cave with some solemn eyes, and walked in behind Father Chen.

In the long and narrow stone cave, after walking for about three to five minutes, a huge empty square appeared in front of me.

The square is larger than two football fields, and in the middle of the square, a dark green tree five or six meters high grows.

The leaves are shaped like maple leaves, and they are dark green all over.

At the bottom of the big tree, there is a white jade sarcophagus more than two meters long, and in front of the sarcophagus, there is a green ghost with a rickety figure and an old and thin face.

The green ghost looked haggard and lonely, and the crumpled cyan skin all over his body was full of folds.

Around its neck, a silver iron chain was attached.

The chain is about the thickness of two fingers, and there are countless secret patterns carved on it, which are complex and cumbersome, and full of mystery.

And in front of this old and green ghost, a lovely girl with some baby fat, was standing on the ground, and pulled out a living heart from the chest of a living person.

The heart beat slightly, and a thread of blood flowed from the girl's palm.

The girl's baby fat face showed two charming dimples, holding the heart in both hands, and her mouth was slightly open, as if she was tasting a delicious cake, and she ate the heart completely in one small bite.

"Uh-huh......" The cute girl with baby fat let out a comfortable snort in her throat, stretched out her tongue and licked the blood on her palm, and then, with both hands, reached the position of the heavenly spirit cover above her head, and gently peeled off the painted skin she was wearing, revealing a cyan body stained with slime.

Immediately afterwards, the ghost creature that took off its painted skin, the ghost claws with sharp nails, went directly into the stomach of the corpse on the ground, disemboweled, grabbed some internal organs and intestines from the corpse's stomach, opened its hideous mouth, and ate it quickly.

And as this green ghost devoured, its originally flat belly bulged little by little, and in just two or three minutes, its belly swelled like a pregnant woman.

"Over...... Come and ......" Under the dark green tree, locked by the secret pattern iron chain, the old green ghost sitting cross-legged in front of the sarcophagus, drooping his eyelids, commanded the pregnant green ghost.

A trace of fear and excitement flashed on the blood-stained face of the pregnant woman green ghost, and she obediently walked in front of the old green ghost.

The old green ghost closed his eyes, stretched out his wrinkled paws, and gently placed them on the belly of the pregnant green ghost.

"It's ...... Good ......"

The old green ghost nodded, and with a snort, the sharp nails pierced directly into the pregnant woman's belly.

"Hmm!" The pregnant woman green ghost snorted, and her face showed a hint of pain.

The old green ghost turned a blind eye, pierced the nail into the belly of the pregnant green ghost, and gently swiped down.

Crash!

The pregnant woman's bulging belly was suddenly sliced open, and a black meat ball the size of a basketball rolled out of the slashed belly.

Bang bang bang!

The black ball of flesh fell to the ground and bounced a few times in a row before rolling to the side and stopping.

The old green ghost glanced at the black meat ball expressionlessly, beckoned behind him, and suddenly, a child-like green ghost walked up with a bowl of black hot soup, and handed the hot soup in his hand to the pregnant woman green ghost who was dissected.

The pregnant woman green ghost's originally painful face suddenly showed a trace of excitement, and she couldn't wait to take the bowl of hot soup, raise her head and drink it quickly.

And as it drank the hot soup, the wound on its stomach that had been cut open by the old green ghost suddenly healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving no trace in a moment.

"Thank you...... Thank you, Ancestor! The pregnant woman green ghost knelt on the ground and bowed to the old green ghost.

"Alright." The old green ghost waved his hand and instructed the child-like green ghost who came over with the black hot soup, "Xiao Qi, go and bring it over." ”

"Yes, Ancestor." Xiao Qi nodded, bent down towards the old green ghost, and walked in front of the black meat ball with curiosity.

Xiao Qi's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he lightly touched the black meat ball with his hand, and suddenly, the meat ball that had been quietly stopped in place suddenly rolled to the side to dodge.

"Don't be afraid...... Xiao Qi screamed milkily, quickly took two steps forward, and held the meat ball that was a little resistant.

"Ancestor!" Holding the meat ball, Xiao Qi respectfully returned to the old green ghost.

"Put it down." The old green ghost touched the meat ball and commanded Xiao Qi.

And the meat ball, which was still struggling in Xiao Qi's arms, suddenly became quiet as the old green ghost put his palm up and stroked it.

"Go serve another bowl of soul soup." The Green Ghost Ancestor commanded Xiao Qi and gently placed the black meat ball on the ground.

After a while, Xiao Qi walked back with a bowl of black viscous liquid soul soup.

The Green Ghost Ancestor took the stone bowl and poured the steaming soul soup on top of the meat ball little by little.

An intoxicating aroma pervades the air.

The skin of the black meat ball agitated, and the soul soup poured on it was like water seeping into the sand, which was quickly absorbed by the meat ball.

And as the black meat ball was absorbed, the black flesh wall on the surface of the meat ball melted little by little, revealing a baby-like cyan ghost creature lying in the meat ball.

This baby-like green ghost, with its eyes tightly closed, lay on the ground, quickly absorbing the nutrients after the melting of the flesh wall.

And beneath its lying body, a portion of the black flesh that it pressed under it did not melt.

After a while, on the entire ground, the flesh wall that originally wrapped the green ghost baby disappeared, leaving the green ghost baby and a thin layer of humanoid black flesh under it.

The old ancestor green ghost nodded with satisfaction, grabbed the green ghost baby with one hand, and came to the sarcophagus.

In the same place, the remaining unmelted black humanoid flesh wall slowly agitated, like blowing, and in a few breaths, it turned into a black baby.

"Green Ghost, and, shadow puppet?" Li Qing's heart was shocked, and his eyes looked at Wang Ming beside him.

Shadow Puppet ......

Isn't the skin inside this shadow puppet the skin of the black meat ball?

And the so-called shadow is the black flesh wall that is pressed under the green ghost's body, like a shadow, without melting!

It turns out that this is the true origin of the name shadow puppet!

And at this time,

In the middle of the square, in front of the white marble sarcophagus.

The old ancestor held the green ghost baby in one hand, and looked at the white jade sarcophagus greedily.
