Chapter 196: Storyteller
In fact, everyone thinks like this, just now they have been wandering around the city without any purpose, but there is no way to do it, otherwise what else can it do? Who knows where that ghostly nest is?
But Xi had actually already thought of a clear plan, and asked Yang Chen and Du Shuang, who were familiar with the hundred ghosts, "Do you know that there is a monster called 'Storyteller' among the hundred ghosts?" ”
Du Shuang and Yang Chen glanced at each other, thought carefully in their minds, and replied, "If I'm not mistaken, it's a good and bad monster, he was a storyteller when he was alive, but no one likes to listen to his story, it is said that after he dies, he will arrest someone and force him to tell the story, if he is serious about being an audience, he will repay that person, but if he doesn't listen, he will kill him immediately, and then carry the person's body and continue to tell the story until the person becomes a pile of bones."

He Zhenyu raised his eyebrows, feeling a little strange when he heard the background setting of this monster, and complained, "Is there still such a persistent ghost?" If you don't listen to his story, you're going to be killed? Hum... This real-world educational constitution is very similar."
Hu Xiaoyun didn't care about He Zhenyu's evaluation, but just asked Xi, "What does this monster have to do with us looking for a ghost?" ”
Xi pointed to the other side of the river, where the houses are more densely built, but the lights are not as bright as the main street behind, "That ghost lives in the deepest part of this city, I have dealt with it before, it is indeed a well-bellied monster, if we look for it to hear the whereabouts of the ghost, we should have eyebrows"
After running all the way, Ma Chun's spirit has eased a little now, but her face is still very pale, and the exposed skin is red and blue by herself, she asked stupidly, "Go directly to the ghost to solve your doubts?" Does it tell us exactly what we want to know? ”
"Of course it's not that easy" Xi sneered, "but a hundred ghosts have a hundred preferences, and that guy's preference is nothing more than to let people listen to his story, as long as we are patient and be a loyal listener, when he is in a good mood, he will naturally be able to talk."
The others looked at each other with a very strange idea in their hearts. This Japanese hundred ghosts are inevitably too humane, can there be such a good thing? You don't have to give anything, you can get paid just quietly listening to him talk about the mountains? Xiang Xi cast questioning glances, obviously not convinced.
Hee said naturally, "Otherwise, why do you think I took you all the way in this direction?" Actually, I didn't expect you to be able to find the monster that took the face of the person on your own in the first place, let alone you, even I have no clue at all, so I have to rely on the strength and wisdom of some other people. That guy knows a lot of things, and he has lived in this city for a long time, so he can be said to know all the members of the hundred ghosts well, don't worry, he must know"
"Then you didn't say it earlier in the first place? Won't it be long before you go straight to him? If we hadn't watched the night walk of a hundred ghosts in the city for a long time, we probably wouldn't have been targeted by the sparrow that killed a thousand knives, right? He Zhenyu asked Xi with some complaints.
"Is it necessary to say it sooner? Aren't you paranormal enthusiasts? I'm trying to show you as many wonders as I can, and I didn't expect this to happen except for the fact that the inside finch was really there. ”
As they discussed, a dozen or so "women" in various kimonos walked along the riverbank with lanterns, their steps slow, and the sound of clogs colliding with the ground rattled rhythmically.
Because they were frightened by the birds, the attitude of the people of the supernatural community towards these ghosts is not the same as when they first watched the night walk of the hundred ghosts, and they are treated from an ornamental point of view, as if everything here is an extremely terrible and hateful murderer.
Almost all of them reacted in the same way, and one dodged and hid behind Hee.
Hee waved his hand at them with his backhand, "Don't be afraid, these are harmless"
Ma Chun, who was most frightened, asked listlessly, "How can we distinguish between those ghosts that are harmful and which ones are not?" The sparrow looked like an ordinary bird, but I didn't expect it to have such a ferocious habit. ”
In fact, Xi didn't dare to say that he knew all about the hundred ghosts, but he could still distinguish most of them, and the appearance of the inner bird was indeed too easy to confuse people's eyes, and he couldn't see clearly in that small alley just now, so he didn't shoot him at the first time.
The women with the lanterns approached them in a column, all wearing masks with different patterns that made it impossible to see their faces, but it seemed that as Xi said, it was basically air. Because they directly ignore the frightened supernatural community, even if they pass by and don't make any superfluous actions, just like the group of monsters on the street at the beginning.
After seeing this team go away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Hu Xiaoyun looked at the river in front of him, although it is not very wide, but it is impossible to flow directly over, not to mention how deep the water is, the color of this river is also pitch black in the dark night, and there is no such terrible monster in it.
"How are we going to cross the river? There don't seem to be boats or anything like that around here."
Hee raised his head in the direction the group of women were coming from, "Why do you need a boat?" There's a bridge over there, just walk over it."
Yang Chen urged, "Then let's go, time is gold now... No, time is life! If you delay a little longer, you will be killed! ”
Yes, among the six people, one died tragically, and the bodies of the other five people have been laid off, and I don't know when these eggs will hatch, and this world is too weird, no matter how good the psychological quality is, I don't want to stay for another minute.
Hee also knew the current situation, no longer hesitated, and led them towards the small arch bridge in the distance, now it is indeed a race against time, so no matter where he goes, at least trot forward. In fact, not only the invitees, but also the guides were reluctant to come to this theme, not because of the large number of youkai here, but because the level of weirdness was the highest among all the themes.
The types of monsters are mixed, which means that the types of danger are also unpredictable, even the most experienced guides can't anticipate every surprise attack, just like the inside of the finch and the ghost, which have not been encountered before, this is of course the arrangement of the half-soul, there must always be some new tricks to stump the invitee or even the guide, otherwise there is no point in testing them.
