Chapter Ninety-Three: The Painted Skin Ghost
Gao Nuo ran home in one go, the grocery store owner was staring closely at the situation in the room, the beads of sweat on his forehead slid down his face, and when he saw Gao Nuo returning, he asked anxiously, "Have you brought all my things?" β
"Here it is. Machinery is the fastest," Gao Nuo hurriedly handed over the cloth bag in his hand.
At this time, Gao Nuo looked at his wife in the room, and couldn't help but be startled, his wife had completely changed, her skin was black and veined, and she was staring at the two of them with her teeth bared.
The grocery store owner took out an unknown red orb from the cloth bag and threw it in the direction of his wife, however, when the wife slapped it casually, and was about to shoot the ball away, the red orb burst like a ball, and suddenly, a stream of red liquid sprayed out and splashed on his wife's body.
Suddenly, a puff of white smoke came out of his wife's whole body, and her skin was as if it had been splashed with sulfuric acid, and it was quickly corroded and peeled off, and the image was very terrifying.
"Boss, what's that?" Gono couldn't help but ask when he saw how powerful the orb he threw out.
"This sphere is filled with black dog blood, which is very harmful to these ghosts." The grocery store owner explained.
As soon as the words fell, I saw my wife wearing a cloak, thinking of them with a hideous face, and an invisible wind appeared in the room, blowing all the yellow talismans posted outside the door.
After losing the power of the yellow talisman, the grocery store owner suddenly felt bad, and hurriedly took out a sphere containing black dog blood again, and handed one to Gao Nuo.
The two of them decisively threw themselves towards the room, and one after another blood balls smashed on his wife's body, and the room became scarlet.
His wife also fell to her knees in the hot smoke, and Gano and the grocery store owner were drenched in sweat, and there were not many blood balls left in their hands, but fortunately his wife's movements had stopped.
"Bold ghost, get out of that woman's body quickly." The grocery store owner shouted, but she didn't have enough confidence in her heart.
However, the wife slowly raised her head at this time, and a strange smile appeared on her terrible face, and she said in a voice that did not belong to her: "You two actually broke my new clothes, but it doesn't matter, I will have a new clothes to change later, although it is not the style I like, let's make do with it first." β
"I don't understand what you're talking about?" The grocery store owner continued to shout at her.
"You don't need to understand, I'll peel off your skin without reservation." The evil voice of his wife lingered in their ears.
Suddenly, she rushed at the two of them at great speed, and Gono and the grocery store owner still threw the blood ball in their hand, but unfortunately, her speed was too fast, and the blood ball missed and smashed against the wall.
Gono also saw a terrible scene, his wife actually crawled on the ceiling like a gecko, looking down on the two of them from above, and the blood balls in their hands had been thrown, and the dangerous aura was coming.
Just as his wife was about to make a move, a gust of wind blew into the house, causing her to feel a little confused and temporarily stop attacking, while there was a knock at the door.
"Is anyone home, please?" A man's voice rang out outside the door.
Gao Nuo and the grocery store owner did not dare to move, and his wife was also very quiet lying on the ceiling, after a long time, Gao Nuo woke up like a dream, and replied angrily: "Who is it?" β
"Sir, you just lost your wallet outside, and I sent it back to you." Long Daoling, who was standing outside the door, replied softly, he originally wondered why the people in the room had not opened the door for so long, but at this moment, he felt a burst of ghost aura emanating from inside, and knew that something must have happened here.
At this point, Gono didn't want to get outsiders in, so he said, "Oh, you can just leave it at the door." β
"How can this work, what if you take it for someone, if it's inconvenient for you, open a crack in the door a little, and I'll throw it in for you." Long Daoling said with excuses.
Gao Nuo didn't know what to say for a while, however, his wife was very cooperative and didn't make a sound at the moment, he had to approach the door, opened the door and said, "You throw it in." β
At this time, Long Daoling grabbed the door with one hand and pulled it back hard, the entire door was open, and Gao Nuo looked at him blankly.
Long Daoling walked into the house unscrupulously, and the grocery store owner looked at him and felt that he exuded an unusual aura.
"Sir, you??" Gono was about to stop him from entering, but was pulled aside by the grocery store owner and motioned, "Don't be silent, this person might be able to help us." β
When Gao Nuo heard this, he also subconsciously looked at the young man in front of him seriously, and stayed aside and quieted down.
Long Daoling looked around the room, suddenly raised his head and looked at the ceiling, his eyes happened to be staring at Gao Nuo's wife, suddenly, her face became extremely terrifying, and a row of fangs appeared in her mouth, which fell from the ceiling and quickly pounced on Long Daoling.
Both Gono and the grocery store owner said in unison, "Danger! β
However, Long Daoling's figure moved faster than her, and in an instant, he jumped behind her, grabbed her with one hand, and then threw her back, and Gao Nuo's wife was thrown to the wall behind her like a cat.
With a bang, she was caught in the wall by this force, and a dent appeared around the wall, and Gono and the grocery store owner on the side were shocked, but they didn't expect this person to forcefully suppress his demon-possessed wife with his bare hands.
As if he saw hope, Gao Nuo hurriedly said to him, "Sir, please save my wife and let her get rid of the evil spirits." β
Long Daoling's brows tightened when he heard this, and the owner of the grocery store also said, "This master, I believe that your skills can help him." β
"I don't know how to explain this to you, if that woman is your wife, I can only tell you that she is not ghosted, because she is a ghost in human skin." Long Daoling replied slowly.
When the grocery store owner heard this, he suddenly realized: "I see, no wonder I always feel that something is not quite right." β
"Impossible, impossible, how can my wife be a ghost, there must be something wrong." Gono said incredulously.
Long Daoling patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'll help you figure it out!" β
After speaking, Long Daoling walked in the direction of Gao Nuo's wife, only to see her struggling on the wall with great difficulty, and finally jumped out of the wall and looked at Long Daoling viciously.
"Ghost servant, what the hell is this guy, it's still a ghost?" Long Dao Ling asked in a low voice to the ghost servant.
"Ghost master, this is a ghost who likes to strip people of their skin, called a painted skin ghost, this kind of ghost kills people, strips off the skin of the other party and puts it on, and then blends in with the other party's posture." The ghost servant explained.
"It turned out to be called a painter, and this way of harming people is so cruel." Long Daoling stared at her and said.
Although the painting skin ghost had a fierce look in her eyes, she also knew that she was not the opponent of Long Dao Ling, and suddenly, she quickly retreated to the glass window beside her and slammed her head into the window. With a bang, the glass shattered to the ground, and the painter actually jumped out of the window and fled.
Seeing this, Long Daoling also followed to the window, and then jumped into it, this is the fifth floor, his jump also made Gao Nuo and the grocery store owner startled, they hurriedly approached the window to look down, but found that there was no trace of them.
At this time, Long Dao Ling and the painted skin ghost carried out a retreat on the main road, although the other party is a ghost, but still retains the appearance of a person, and also drills to a place with a lot of people, which can make Long Dao inspiration very tricky, after all, he can't use too much ability in the public of other courts, and he is also worried about accidentally injuring ordinary people.
The only thing he could do now was to rely on his speed to follow the Painter and prevent her from disappearing from his sight, and at this moment, a nightclub appeared in front of him, and the Paintskin Ghost quickly rushed in.
Long Daoling chased after her and found that she had entered the nightclub, and couldn't help frowning, thinking, this guy is really troublesome, not only picking a place with a lot of people to run, but also entering a nightclub, which is dimly lit and noisy, and it is very inconvenient to move, and when he is helpless, he has no choice but to follow in.
Coincidentally, this nightclub is also the more famous nightclub he brought to Hyakki before, but he has no interest in these now, his eyes are carefully searching the crowd, at the same time, a woman in black is sitting on a chair at the bar, with a sleeve of gloves on her arm, messy and beautiful long burgundy hair is irregularly on her shoulders, and her eyes are thick black eyeliner, and she is enchanting and aura.
She elegantly held the wine glass in one hand, handed the wine to the bloody red lips and took a sip slightly, her eyes wandered around the nightclub, at this time, he saw a familiar figure appear in the nightclub, and also showed a smile, put down the wine glass and walked towards the other party. When Long Daoling was looking for the Painted Skin Ghost, he was patted on the back, and then turned his head.
"Dao Ling, if you are so free to come and play alone tonight, I will invite you to a drink!" Long Daoling looked at it, the woman behind him turned out to be Rosa, and said with a smile: "Sasha, another day, I'm not here to play, I was chasing a strange guy just now, and ran in with her, by the way, you have been in the nightclub, have you seen any strange people coming in?" β
"I see, I guess I'm right, you're catching ghosts again, right?" Rosa asked in his ear.
"That's right, I met a very troublesome guy this time, remember to tell me if you see it." Long Daoling nodded.
"This, I was just performing and didn't pay attention to it, but I'm familiar with this place, so I can help you find it." Rosa laughed.
"Okay, then I'll bother you." Long Daoling didn't say much, worried that the other party would escape, and then walked towards the crowd next to him.
Then, Rosa looked around as well, and soon spotted a woman with a disheveled hair quietly walking towards the back door, and a smile appeared on her face when she saw her.
After a while, the painter appeared in the alley at the back door of the nightclub, and after finding that he had escaped from the man's pursuit, he also tidied up his clothes, and smiled disdainfully: "Hmph, nosy person, it's not so easy to catch me, hahaha." β
Then, as if nothing had happened, she walked out towards the intersection in front of her, and when she turned the corner, she suddenly stopped, as if she had seen something terrible, and her face showed a look of fear, and her body slowly retreated back the way she came.
In front of him, a woman dressed in black with long burgundy hair walked slowly towards her, with a strange smile on her face, and suddenly, she stepped forward quickly, grabbed the neck of the painter with one hand, and pressed her against the wall effortlessly, this woman was Rosa in the nightclub.
"Where do you want to go?" Rosa asked her in a low voice with a terrifying look in her eyes.
The Paint-Skinned Ghost seemed to be very afraid of Rosa, and did not dare to make a sound, nor did she dare to have any intention of resisting, and Rosa said to her in a low tone: "Stay here and wait for that man to come, or I will kill you, understand?" β
The painter nodded in horror, not daring to disobey, Rosa said with satisfaction: "That's right, what he says to you later, you just have to agree, I found out that you have the intention of disobedience, you should know the consequences." β
After Rosa finished speaking, she casually threw the Painter to the ground, so gently fell, but the Painter had no way to stand up again, at this time, Rosa returned to her normal smile and turned around and walked into the nightclub.
Long Daoling couldn't find any trace of the painting ghost in the nightclub, and he was a little anxious, but at this time, Rosa came over and said to him: "Daoling, I seem to have seen a suspicious woman out the back door, why don't you go there and have a look." β
"yes, I'll go over and take a look now, Sasha, thank you, I'll drink with you another day." Long Daoling said gratefully.
"Anytime, you can go quickly, or let her run away." Rosa also smiled and gestured.
Long Daoling nodded, and immediately ran towards the back door, when he walked out of the alley, he saw the painter ghost lying on the ground honestly, motionless, as if waiting for his arrival, which made him feel very puzzled.
He decisively took out the ghost sword, put the knife on his neck and shouted: "It seems that you also know that you can't escape, so it's okay, as long as you are willing to be honest and explain everything, I will spare your life." β
However, the performance of the painted skin ghost really surprised Long Daoling, she explained everything to herself without reservation, it turned out that she had eaten that person's wife, leaving only her skin, just like a person's clothes, after changing it, she returned to her life as this person, waiting for the next opportunity to do evil, this kind of ghost is really vicious.
In this way, there is no hope for Gao Nuo's wife, but Long Daoling, as usual, will not let the Painted Skin Ghost have another chance to do evil, and wants to accept him as a member of the Hundred Ghosts.
He took out the book of 100 ghosts in the alley and shouted to her: "Painted skin ghost, follow me and become my 100 ghosts!" Then, as usual, the Ghost Ring sucked a drop of his blood, and the Painted Skin Ghost turned into a red light and was sucked into the book, and a picture appeared on a blank page, on which appeared a blood-red humanoid monster without any scissors, with two deep, hollow eyes on his face, and a mouthful of sharp teeth in his mouth, which was extremely penetrating, and the information about him appeared below:
Painted Skin Ghost: This ghost is a vicious and vicious ghost, they have a terrible ability, hide in human skin, with the help of the human body can move in broad daylight, and then at night, after eating people, they will peel off the skin, leave it for themselves to wear, and then appear in the image of the person being eaten.
Type: Goblin
Ability: Peeling
Looking at the ghost magic presented by the painted skin ghost, Long Daoling was very disgusted with this ability, maybe he would not use such a disgusting ability in his life, after subduing the painted skin ghost, Long Daoling returned to Gao Nuo's residence.
When the grocery store owner and Gao Nuo saw Long Daoling's return, they also asked anxiously, "Sir, how is it, my wife is fine?" β
"The matter is settled, but you have to be mentally prepared, your wife she" Long Dao Ling said again.
Gono had already guessed something, and his heart trembled, but he still insisted on asking, "What's wrong with her, tell me quickly?" β
Long Daoling handed him a black plastic bag and said, "This is your wife's belongings, please mourn and change." β
When Gono opened it, his eyes were blurred with tears, and it contained his wife's human skin, and he carried the bag and walked towards the door in a trance
When such a thing happened, he didn't know what to say, but the grocery store owner said, "Well, he still has to adapt to this kind of thing, and we can't help it." β
Long Daoling also nodded very clearly, and when he was about to turn around and leave, the grocery store owner asked, "Master, I don't know what to call you?" β
"My name is Long Daoling, and this is my card." Long Daoling also responded politely, and at the same time handed the other party his business card.
The grocery store owner took a look and thought: Hyakki Office? It turned out to be a place dedicated to receiving supernatural commissions, and he responded politely: "Thank you, I will also ask you for help if I need it in the future." β
"Always welcome!" Long Daoling replied with a smile.
