Chapter 0297: Corpse Stink
The ghost boy usually does not appear in front of Xu Yi and Tang Long's eyes, they don't remember when they last saw each other, although it is a ghost that does not grow up, but it can be cultivated in the ghost ornament worn by Xu Shu, which is really a little different from the ghost, except that there is no shadow.
The image of the ghost boy became clear, and if he could see it, ordinary people would think that what he saw was just a boy in fancy costume, and he could not be associated with the ghost at all, of course, most people could not see him.
The ghost boy approached, and in front of the three of them, he said to Xu Shu, "Young master, why are you here?" ”
The ghost boy asked, smiling at Xu Shu and Tang Long, but did not speak.
"I'm afraid you'll get lost, so I'm looking for it, do you find anything?" Xu Shu said casually, and then asked about tonight's situation.
The ghost boy shook his head: "No, it's normal!" ”
"Then you can walk with them!" Xu Shu wanted to leave, he was too sleepy, he should go back to the hotel to sleep, so he planned to let the ghost boy accompany Xu Yi and Tang Long to visit the ancient town at night.
At this time, Xu Shu found out that although it was raining in the sky, the rain could not wet the clothes on the ghost boy's body at all, this clothes were bought by Xu Shu for him, made of real cloth, how could it not be wet, I touched it with my hand, it was true, it was really not wet.
Just when Xu Shu was surprised why the ghost boy's clothes weren't wet, Tang Long immediately objected to Xu Shu keeping the ghost boy to accompany them around the ancient town, and shouted: "Let him go shopping with us, in case someone finds out, how can we explain." ”
That's right, it is taboo for a Taoist priest to raise a little ghost, and only a Taoist like Xu Shu can cover it.
"I can, I'm just an ordinary child!" The ghost boy saw that Xu Shu was really sleepy, and he wanted to help Xu Shu send the two old men, so he defended.
Xu Yi shook his head: "No, we are orthodox Taoists." ”
"Am I not?" Xu Shu asked rhetorically.
The two old men looked at each other, they had nothing to say, but they began to play old, Xu Yi glared at Xu Shu: "You white-eyed wolf, let you accompany and wronged you!" ”
The ghost boy stuck out his tongue at Xu Shu, it was so cute, Xu Shu smiled helplessly, so he had to comply, so as not to have to be educated again.
Xu Shu didn't want to accompany the two old men to wander around the ancient town late at night, bored, so he didn't let the ghost boy disappear, took his hand, walked side by side, and talked nonsense behind the old two heads.
After walking around the ancient town, it was more than an hour, and I went to the swamp in the north of the ancient town, and looked at the swamp, the scene was guarded, and I found nothing, and then turned back to the ancient town.
"Alright now, let's go back!" Xu Shu thought to himself that he was finally done and could go back to the hotel, he missed the big bed in the hotel very much.
"Well, nothing weird, let's go back." Xu Yi nodded, and Xu Shu breathed a sigh of relief.
The ghost boy endured it for a long time, and he could also smell the smell of Xu Shu's body, and shrugged his nose and asked Xu Shu: "Young master, what smell do you have?" ”
"What does it smell like?" When others asked, Xu Shu must have been embarrassed or even annoyed, but the ghost boy was so cute, Xu Shu was not angry, but had an interesting rhetorical question.
The ghost boy approached Xu Shu's clothes again and sniffed it, then shook his head and sighed: "It looks like a very special smell of corpses, very special, it looks like it has been treated, it should be added to some kind of smell." ”
As soon as the ghost boy's words came out, he was startled by Xu Shu, a four-grade Taoist, the smell on his body for a long time, and he was almost used to it, but he still didn't know what the smell was, it smelled like a foul smell of silt, but after the ghost boy said this, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his back.
"Wait?" Xu Yi raised his hand to stop everyone's footsteps, turned his head to glance at Xu Shu, then approached Xu Shu's body and sniffed carefully, shook his head, raised his head, and waved his palm in front of his nose to dispel the smell.
"Smell it!" Xu Yi frowned and let Tang Long smell it.
Tang Long put down his umbrella, approached Xu Shu and smelled the smell on his body, and then shook his head and frowned.
"Have you ever smelled like this?" Xu Shu asked puzzled.
Tang Long guessed noncommittally: "This smell is like the smell of a dead pig soaked in sewage, it is disgusting." ”
Xu Shu has the urge to kill, is the smell on his body so disgusting.
"So, it really smells like a corpse?" Xu Shu heard Tang Long say this and asked him rhetorically.
Tang Long hesitated, he was sure that he couldn't, Xu Shu moved his gaze to Xu Yi again, and Xu Yi fell into deep thought again, as if they had obviously smelled this smell somewhere, but they couldn't remember it.
Xu Shu breathed helplessly, and planned to give up and go back to the hotel to rest.
"Look at the notes." Xu Yi suddenly reminded Xu Shu.
Xu Shu frowned, "Taoist Notes" is in the ghost ornament, when there is nothing or need, he can take it out anytime and anywhere to take a look, the notes do record the smell of corpses, but he didn't really read it carefully, just read it as a story, and even now he didn't take it seriously, at this time Xu Yi mentioned it, and couldn't help but surprise Xu Shu.
Xu Shu glanced at the ghost boy: "Have you read the notes!" ”
"No, no!" The ghost boy waved his hand in denial.
Xu Shu took out the "Taoist Notes" and opened it to look for it, the notes with yellowed paper were not easy to flip, but it didn't take long for Xu Shu to find the record of "Corpse Stink Anecdotes", looking at the title, it was a story, so Xu Shu didn't take it seriously at first.
Xu Shu finished reading it in the dim light, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, the anecdote was recorded very clearly, it was the same as the foul smell emitted by the dead meat soaked in the sewage that Tang Long said, and this smell was really the smell of corpses, the same as what the ghost boy said, it was processed, and the person who processed and created this stench was also a master.
This kind of smell is aimed at the hands and feet of people who are advanced in Taoism, so that this smell covers or marks the identity of Taoist people, so that people can avoid it.
The source of this smell is the use of rotting corpses, from which corpse water is taken, and through the hands of the evil way, the water of the extreme yin is fused.
Xu Shu recalled the source of this smell, he had only been to the tomb, but he didn't find out how he got this smell of corpses, there was a smell of silt in the ancient tomb underground.
"Maybe there are ghosts in the ancient town at night, and we can't meet them, because this smell on your body has dispelled them, so wherever we go, we will be safe." Tang Long muttered.
Xu Shu smiled, suddenly had a bad idea in his heart, and said to Tang Long: "In this case, I have a way, maybe I can let you see the true face of the ancient town, I leave, you stay." ”
"Okay, you're redundant anyway." Xu Yi glanced at the ghost boy and said to Xu Shu.
Xu Shu didn't bother to refute, this old man had a dirty mouth, he had to say that he was a waste to be happy, let him go, nodded decisively, and pulled the ghost boy out of the ancient town.
Xu Shu returned to the hotel, didn't care about anything, and went straight to bed to sleep, regardless of whether the smell on his body was a corpse smell or not, how disgusting it would be.
