Chapter 17: The Checkmate of Man
"Pull the thread, pull the whole body...... "The bad old man muttered to himself and asked casually, "Senior sister, you have an antidote, right?" ”
"Nope." She glared at him and climbed up from the ground by holding on to the wall, "What about the bodies of Xiao Hei and Sister?" ”
"Blackie can't give it to you." The bad old man shook his head and said weakly, "If you give me the antidote, Sister A's corpse can be returned to you." After all, it is not easy to refine a puppet, if she is tired, she can still talk to you, and the black cat is not of that use. ”
"You ......" the female ghost was actually angry with him, "Okay, okay, okay, I want to see which of us takes longer." I can't hurt the ghost, and when you die, I'll look for it. ”
"But I hid them." The bad old man's tone looked innocent, "I'm dead, I'm afraid you won't be able to find it." ”
"You, bad old man, I'm not done with you." She staggered forward a few times, but had to stop because of her unsteady pace.
"Senior sister, go on."
"You ......"
The old man threw a behemoth out of nowhere, and the female ghost caught it in a panic, and she rolled on the ground several times before she could stop, and the stone slab on the ground was clearly printed with a few blood marks.
It's Sister A, and the female ghost is holding Sister A's corpse. Sister A's body was bigger than the body of a female ghost, and she touched it a few times and wanted Sister A-to stand up first, but found that both of her arms had been cut off shoulder-high, and the sleeves of her red coat were cut off, revealing flat brown jerky and white bones.
"I saw that she only had one hand, and it was not good-looking, so I cut off the other one as well. Isn't it pleasing to the eye now? She wouldn't hurt anyway. The bad old man opened his mouth casually, but his eyes were fixed on the black blood on the side of the female ghost.
"Sister, you stay here."
Sister A's face is still like a heavy shell on top of wood, this time she didn't make that creepy creak, she was very quiet, quiet so that Xiao He, who was hiding on the sidelines and watching the battle, felt that she was broken. However, the smiling face on her face unconsciously became a blood-colored "one".
The female ghost child's body could not last long, and her body was seriously injured, and she almost died trembling all the way to crawl towards the bad old man, dragging a few long black snakes behind her. The bad old man was also dying, so he looked at her without moving, waiting for her to crawl over.
"Senior sister, what are you trying to do?" The old man half-closed his eyes, the female ghost's body was too small, and she climbed too slowly, he couldn't afford to wait.
"Xiao Hei's corpse must still be with you."
"You seem to know this, junior sister, right?"
"I'm talking about you."
"Huh?" The old man was stunned for a moment, "Senior sister, don't you want to search me?" You are a ghost, and you can't get into me. ”
"Ahem, I'm still there."
The place where Xiao He stood was just a corner, far away from the two of them, and the light was not as good as in front of them. So he could see it all, but they had completely forgotten that he existed.
"That...... Need help? He looked at the female ghost a little apologetically, because he didn't know what to call the female ghost for a while.
"Hahaha......" The female ghost glanced at him, and then laughed, laughing and laughing her tears came out, but she still couldn't stop laughing.
"Well, can you stop laughing?"
"How?" The female ghost was afraid that he was going to help the old man, and her voice suddenly rose a little.
"It's scary when you laugh because you only have one eye and it's all mushy. Laugh again, and I won't be able to see your face clearly. ”
“……”
"Bad old man, hand over Xiao Hei, this is my last bottom line."
"No, no." The bad old man shook his head hard and posed himself into a comfortable "big" word. "You let that kid come and search for it, right?"
Xiao He looked at the female ghost waiting for her instructions, but her face was a mess, and he didn't understand it for a long time, and finally she said, "Protect yourself," and he walked over to search his body.
The bad old man didn't play tricks, obediently and actively cooperated with Xiao He's search, and even occasionally raised his hand to ask him to collect it more carefully.
Seeing him cooperate so much, Xiao He was a little embarrassed to search, and for some reason looking at this bad old man, a sentence popped up in his mind: People are dying, and their words are good.
Is the bad old man planning to have a good talk with the female ghost because he knows that he is going to die?
"Senior sister, why are you doing this?" He looked distressed, "Is it worth it for me?" ”
"It's worth it."
"Is it worth it? Your life has passed in vain, others have married wives and children and lived a harmonious and peaceful life, while you have wrapped yourself in hatred.
One day I'm alive, you chase one day, even if you're still alive this time, years of cultivation will be dissipated, right? ”
"Yes."
"Then why are you so persistent? Kill me, what good do you have, what do you get? Avenge that old thing? Have you forgotten what he did to you back then? ”
"I didn't forget."
"It's just that you hurt me, why are you even ruthless yourself? Do you know that if you use this lead a little later, you yourself will go one step ahead of me? ”
"Senior brother." The female ghost suddenly called him, looking at him with tears rolling in her eyes, maybe Xiao He's reminder had played a role. This time, the outline of her face gradually became clearer, but there was dirty blood sneaking into the stone slab underground.
"It's been more than sixty years, and I'm tired." She sighed, her words full of exhaustion. "I want to be over, whether it's life or death, it's enough for me.
I just don't want to bear the infamy of "bullying teachers and destroying ancestors", my life was picked up from the cutting board, if it weren't for him, maybe I would have become a bowl of broth for everyone to eat.
A lot of times I think how nice it would have been if I had eaten more that day, and maybe I would have been the one who died! That way, he won't become a little black, and I won't be sad for the rest of my life.
Oh, maybe, you'll call me stupid! ”
"Heh, you know what? When I first came down the mountain, I originally planned to go to death, because I didn't "deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors", and it was later that Xiao Hei told me that he saw a figure before he was dying.
That's when I realized that Master was not referring to me but to you standing behind me when he died, so I picked up a life, a life ready to take revenge on you. Because I don't remember what you look like, but Xiao Hei knows what you smell like.
In this way, I chased you and hid, and more than 50 years have passed. Master's revenge, but I still haven't finished avenging it. Brother, am I stupid? ”
"It's stupid." The bad old man was silent for a long time and then said, "You shouldn't use a thread to lead." ”
"You're still thinking for yourself." The female ghost shook her head and laughed self-deprecatingly, "I want you to hear it." ”
"The black cat taught you?"
"Don't worry, I'll ask." The bad old man was stunned when he saw her and explained, "I can live half a pillar of incense at most, and I can't make any big waves." ”
"Yes."
"Ahem, you're not going to treat him like an old thing, are you?"
