Chapter 19: Nine Sons and Mother Ghosts
In the basement, Li Xiao was slumped on the large class chair, his feet resting comfortably on the table in front of him, holding a cigarette between his fingers, and puffing the smoke comfortably. The old ghost floated aimlessly with his hands behind his back, frowning, and occasionally gently twisting a few sparse whiskers under his chin.
Xiaoshan sat on the ground, holding a candy cup about the size of his body, and quickly peeled off the candy and threw it into his mouth one by one, and the crunch sound of chewing echoed in the basement.
The old ghost paced a few steps and asked again, "You didn't come back all night last night to get this bit of news?"
"What is this news?" Li Xiao was unhappy: "Last night, I risked my life to fight with those Interpol, which made them restrain their temper a little, otherwise there would be no news! For this, Li Daocheng even almost demolished his house by Zhang Biao, you old thing is light." Alas, damn it, it's always the one who stands and talks without backache!"
The old ghost snorted, shook his head and sighed: "The art of helping the beggars takes time to chant spells, I have only heard of asking the beggars to catch ghosts, and I have never heard of asking the beggars to fight with people, this Zhang Biao can also be regarded as a genius in the cultivation world! He met you and Li Daocheng, two friends, and no one reminded him, it can be regarded as carelessness in making friends!"
Li Xiao rolled his eyes and said, "He'll do this, what can we do?"
The old ghost gave him a disdainful look, paced two steps, and then asked, "According to you, the murderer has no fixed place to live, and is wandering around. By the way, how many did you just say?"
"Eighty-one. Li Xiao lazily spat out the smoke and corrected: "I didn't say it, it was based on the information from the Interpol investigation." In Japan, Taiwan, throughout Southeast Asia, plus Hong Kong, a total of eighty-one teenagers have been killed in five years, the youngest being seven years old and the oldest being twelve. Their birthdays are exactly the same. By the way, old ghost, there are always thousands of people born every day in the entire Hong Kong population of several million, right? But except for the seven teenagers who were killed, no one else has the same birth date as them, don't you think it's strange?"
"What's so strange about that. There are thousands of worlds, there are no wonders, and demons and ghosts like us are all the same, what else is impossible?" The old ghost looked like an old god was there, paced two steps, frowned, and said, "Eighty-one? Didn't Li Daocheng say anything?"
He was shocked, I thought he might have thought of something, but he wasn't sure, it seemed like there was something unspeakable. ”
"Ninety-nine to one, eighty-one dead, exactly nine. The old ghost's eyes were spinning around, and several goat's whiskers under his chin were about to be broken by him, he sighed, shook his head and said: "Li Daocheng must have thought of it, but the matter is serious, and he doesn't dare to draw conclusions lightly." ”
"Eighty-one is eighty-one, what exactly is nine? Old ghost, what do you mean? Don't sell it, okay? Can you talk more happily?" Li Xiao glanced at the old ghost and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you the same as Li Daocheng, looking like you are spitting and spitting?"
"Is Li Daocheng also spitting out? That must be not wrong, Li Daocheng must have thought of it together, that murderous master of evil art is refining the Nine Sons and Mother Ghosts!" The old ghost said with certainty: "If this master of raising ghosts is really cultivating the Nine Sons and Mother Ghosts, he has collected enough of the number of children and ghosts now, and there is only one female ghost missing." So in the next step, the target of his murder must no longer be a teenager, but a woman. No wonder Li Daocheng is not sure, think about it, if those Interpol believe his words and change the object of protection from teenagers to women, and then teenagers are killed, how can he explain?"
"Isn't it very powerful?" Li Xiao couldn't help but sit up straight, he had a vague impression, knowing that this was a very fierce soul, and it seemed that it was also recorded in the "Records of the Divine and Demonic Demons" of the Six-Fingered Daoist. The enchantress on the list in "Demon Case Records" basically belong to the category that can walk sideways, and they are by no means comparable to ordinary demons.
"Yes. However, "Demon Case Record" only records the ability of this kind of ghost, I remember another book, for this kind of ghost is recorded in detail, as long as you find out and see, whether someone is refining the nine sons and mother ghosts, it should be certain. ”
The old ghost walked to the bookshelf, looked at the dozen or so big bookshelves in front of and around, and suddenly cried and said, "You two come over and help! I forgot the title of the book, and I forgot where I put it." ”
Li Xiao sat up straight and fell back into the chair, and said weakly: "In order for you to live here in peace and stability, I worked hard, stayed awake all night, and worked outside all night, and finally came back alive, and my ass was not yet hot, are you embarrassed to let me do this little thing? Xiaoshan, why don't you go and help?"
Xiao Shan, who was concentrating on nibbling on candy, pouted suddenly, and said angrily: "When didn't you come back alive, and when did you come back dead? It's like it's true, and it's hard work?
Li Xiao was unhappy: "Xiaoshan, you have to be grateful, who bought you the candy?"
"See for yourself how you are the boss. As soon as he heard this, Xiaoshan jumped on Li Xiao's head with a snort, tore his hair dissatisfiedly, jumped to his feet and shouted: "Other monsters in other people eat human flesh, I have been with you for so long, I haven't even eaten a single human hair, take some candy and biscuits to coax me." Are you embarrassed?"
Li Xiao stretched out his hand and grabbed the small mountain on his head and threw it away, and said nonchalantly: "Isn't there such a thing, don't I always buy ice cream for you to eat? and KFC ......?"
Xiaoshan's feet seemed to have springs on them, and as soon as he fell to the ground, he jumped up again, and pounced on him reluctantly, shouting: "Where are these things that monsters should eat? ”
Li Xiao slowly puffed out the smoke ring, and sighed: "Xiaoshan, you don't know when you're young! In ancient times, monsters lived in the deep mountains and old forests, drinking blood, hungry and full, and living as if they were asking for food, they had no choice, what else could they eat without eating people? Now that the times are different, life is good, and there are candy, ice cream, and these good things to eat, don't be in the blessing and don't know the blessing!" With a bang, the poor little hill slammed into the opposite wall like a fly.
Xiaoshan slid down the wall, sat down on the ground, pounded the ground with two small fists, and cried out in grief: "I don't care! I'm going out to eat people tonight, I'm going to eat people, I'm going to eat people!"
"You two don't make trouble!" The old ghost walked over from the bookshelf, holding a yellowed ancient book in his hand, he flipped through a few pages, handed the open book to Li Xiao, and said, "Oh, look, look, this is it." ”
Li Xiao rolled his eyes up and looked at the ceiling blankly: "In order for you to live here in peace and stability, I have worked hard and stayed awake all night......"
"Aren't you? Seriously, okay?" The old ghost looked at Li Xiao pitifully: "How did you become a big brother and don't set a good example, no wonder Xiaoshan doesn't want to do anything all day long, except for sleeping, he will be lazy." ”
Xiao Shan Yan clenched the two little tiger teeth at the corners of his mouth, and licked his lips menacingly: "Dead old ghost, what are you talking about? Who is lazy?"
Li Xiao slowly brought the cigarette in his hand to his mouth and took a wild puff, staring at the ceiling but his eyes didn't move: "I have been running around and working outside all night, and I finally came back alive, and my ass is not hot yet, this little thing ......"
The old ghost couldn't help but roll his eyes, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, don't read it, I'll read it to you, right?"
Li Xiao perked up, flicked the cigarette butt in his hand, and sat up straight all of a sudden: "Say!" Xiao Shan Zhen also became interested, jumped on the table with a snort, and sat in front of Li Xiao, looking like a good baby listening to the story.
The old ghost held the book in one hand and twisted his goatee in the other, shook his head and read: "Heaven and earth have their own mysteries. All spirits, demons, monsters, wild ghosts and fierce spirits are all dependent. Outside the Three Realms, there is a small void, and there are those who exist! There are also those who say yin and yang, which means that the yin alone does not give birth, and the yang alone does not grow. Everyone in the world thinks so, but in fact, it is ...... big fallacy" This book is really well documented, and the old ghost is depressed and frustrated, and he has been reading it for a long time before he has finished reading the previous paragraph. He took a breath and took a look, only to see that Li Xiao and Xiao Shanzhen had straight eyes, shaped like sculptures, and were looking at him blankly.
The old ghost was obsessed with reading, and as soon as the book was in his hand, he immediately got carried away, he shook his head and shook his head when he read it, and enjoyed it, but he listened to Li Xiao and Xiao Shanzhen with a lot of confusion, and when he saw him stop, he asked in unison: "What do you mean?"
"No hurry, no hurry. The old ghost said slowly: "These are not the point, there are more below." After speaking, he cleared his throat, and unhurriedly began to read again, and as he read and read, he suddenly realized that the atmosphere did not seem to be right. Sneaking a look, I saw Li Xiao and Xiao Shan Zhen rubbing their hands, their eyes showing a fierce light. The two guys exchanged glances with each other, Li Xiao had quietly rolled up his sleeves, and Xiao Shan Zhen rubbed his palms, revealing the sharp claws on the tips of his fingers.
"Oh, don't rush, don't rush, I'll be short, long story short, long story short. The old ghost who shook his head suddenly panicked, and said hurriedly: "To put it simply, it is a person who was born with the most yin, and died in the body of a pure yang boy when the pure yin was unlucky, if he broke free from reincarnation, he would definitely turn into a fierce ghost." This kind of imp likes to devour the same kind, if there are nine such imps devouring each other, and only one is left in the end, then even if the ghost body grows and becomes the legendary nine-son ghost, the ghost power is all over the sky, and even the ghost king has to avoid it when he sees it. The temperament of the nine ghosts is very peculiar, before the ghost body grows up, as soon as they see the same kind, they will hunt and eat it, but once the ghost body grows up, they are very close to the same kind when they see it, and they often gather together to advance and retreat together. After the nine ghosts have gathered enough, they will find a woman who was also born in the pure yin period and kill them, and then recognize this female ghost as their mother, a total of ten ghosts, and they will be called nine children and mother ghosts. ”
The old ghost spoke very fast this time, muttering like a monk chanting scriptures, wiped his forehead after speaking, and sighed with relief, only to find that Li Su and Xiao Shanzhen listened with straight eyes again, and were looking at him with strange expressions.
"What's the matter?" the old ghost looked at the two of them very innocently, and said, "I said it very bluntly!
"Xiaoshan, do you understand?" Li Xiao turned his head and asked Xiaoshan.
"This guy said so fast, the ghost knows what he's talking about!" Xiao Shan squinted his eyes and said maliciously, "He did it on purpose, I think this old thing is itchy." ”
Li Xiao stretched out his hand, pinched the old ghost's neck, lifted his feet off the ground, and Xiao Shanzhen immediately jumped on his head with a familiar twist, screaming in his mouth, and his claws were all down, three times and five divided by two, and the old ghost's hairstyle suddenly became a very flowing explosive head.
