Chapter 9: Are You Looking for Me?

After crossing the bridge, you can see a forest in the distance.

The moonlight was a little dim, and even if I tried to keep my eyes open, I couldn't see much clearly.

"Whew-"

Liang Jiu exhaled a breath of turbidity, took another step, and entered the woods.

The forest was not big, but because the light was already dim and there were leaves blocking it, Liang Jiu wanted to see the situation in the woods clearly, but he couldn't do it at all.

"For the sake of world peace, for the great cause of the Death Hall, I ......" Liang Jiuda waved his sleeves and raised his feet to walk forward.

"I suddenly felt that my strength was still not enough to affect anything, so I might as well not go." Liang Jiu retracted his foot again.

"But...... If I don't go, won't it seem like I'm timid? Liang Jiu frowned and thought about it seriously.

"No! Isn't that for others to look down on me? Isn't it just a little ghost? In order to...... For the sake of the hall master. Liang Jiu nodded with satisfaction, yes, just so that the hall master can get more people's love, let the sun shine into her heart, and she is willing to be this apostle of light.

With the sound of "clang, clang", Liang Jiu lifted heavy steps and stepped into the woods.

The woods were not big, and Liang Jiu had already finished wandering around after a while, but he didn't find anything abnormal. Not to mention the imps, not even slimes.

"You can't blame me for this, I've come here, but I haven't found the target, so it's a mistake on the part of the hall master." Liang Jiu breathed a long sigh of relief, found a perfect reason for himself, and turned around to leave.

"Uncle, are you looking for me?" A timid little girl's voice rang out from behind her.

Uncle?

Liang Jiu thinks he is not handsome, but he is quite passable, even if he works night shifts every day, he doesn't look so old, right?

Liang Jiumeng turned around, wanting to educate this open-mouthed little guy well.

Bang Bang

"Uncle, are you afraid of me too?" The little girl raised her head, and although she could not shed tears because of her undead form, her expression was full of sadness.

"How can I, I, be afraid? It's just a little ghost, but I'm from the Afterlife, you know the Afterlife, right? It's the place dedicated to catching ghosts, don't come here, I don't want to bully you. Also, who is your uncle? ”

"But ......"

"But what's the matter, our hall master has to eat three little ghosts in one meal, and he has to put on the sterilization ...... Phew, Bah, Jueyun pepper powder is dipped in and eaten, you hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to leave when our hall master comes. ”

"But the branch you're holding on to is about to break."

……

Click-

Well?

Bang –

With the dull sound of hitting the ground, Liang Jiu only felt a burst of happiness now. When I ran to climb the tree just now, I fell off all those things, otherwise I would have to do my own funeral now.

"Now." The little girl reached over and tried to pull him up.

Liang Jiu subconsciously went to pick up her little hand, but it suddenly passed through, making him lose his mind for a while.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The little girl seemed to cry and hurriedly apologized. "I forgot I can't touch something tangible."

Liang Jiu got up, rubbed his waist, and said with a smile: "Don't cry, don't cry, my brother is fine." ”

Although the other party is a ghost, he is kind-hearted, not only did he not hurt him, but even wanted to lend a hand. How can such a little girl, even if she is a ghost, not feel soft-hearted? But the "thing" she said ...... Made, I'm not ...... Bah!

"I want to help you, but I can't." The little girl's nose twitched, and her little face was full of grievances.

"You've helped my brother, thank you." Liang Jiu stood up and smiled.

"Really?" The little girl looked up, her eyes full of hope.

"Of course it's true."

Of course it's true, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I'd still be afraid of ghosts. Unexpectedly, the difference between ghosts and people is only a body, they will also be happy and sad, and they will also take the initiative to reach out their hands when others need help - although they can't hold it.

"Can the uncle chat with Xiao Ming? Xiao Ming is so lonely. The little girl lowered her head, not daring to look at Liang Jiu's eyes.

"Absolutely. Wait, you're a little Ming, no, that's not the point. Liang Jiu shook his head vigorously, making his head clearer.

Well, even more dizzy.

"Really? Thank you, uncle. Xiao Ming raised his head, his big eyes full of surprise.

"Xiao Ming, my brother will ask you a question first, why do you call me "uncle"? Liang Jiu tried to put a kind smile on his face.

"Why? There's no why, that's what Da Ming said, he said that anyone his age should be called 'uncle'. I'm a fast learner. Xiao Ming looked happy.

"The Great Underworld? No, you're going to call me 'brother' in the future. Liang Jiu emphasized.

Xiao Ming's face was embarrassed: "But Da Ming said ......"

"Are you good friends?"

"yes."

"Then Xiao Ming and I are very good friends, and there is one more 'very good' than Xiao Ming and Da Ming, so I have to call my brother." Liang Jiu is kind and seductive.

Xiao Ming thought for a moment, and then smiled: "Is a very good friend to be called 'brother'?" I'll call you brother from then on. ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Liang Jiu's heart was full of a sense of accomplishment at the moment, and after his careful teaching, he successfully pulled back a child who had gone astray.

Why is that big underworld so damaged?

Wait, who is the Great Underworld?

"Da Ming is a big ghost who came here not long ago, and Da Ming's memory is not very good, but he will give Xiao Ming a lot of interesting stories, and he will play with Xiao Ming, Da Ming is good, just like the little one, the little two, and the three." As if he could see through Liang Jiu's thoughts, Xiao Ming introduced Da Ming.

"I forgot what my name was, and I still gave it to Xiao Ming. My name is Xiao Ming, and his name is Da Ming, which sounds good, right? ”

"Sounds good, sounds good." Liang Jiu nodded in agreement.

No, that's not the point!

"You said the Great Styx came not long ago?"

"yes, what's wrong? Do you know the Great Underworld? Xiao Ming looked up curiously.

"Know, know, know. So can Xiao Ming tell his brother where Da Ming is now? Liang Jiu tried to make himself appear sincere, according to Xiao Ming, this Da Ming should be the protagonist of the haunting incident of Wangshu Inn. Even if it's not him, it probably can't be done.

"Da Ming used to go to Wangshu Inn every night, and then he would come back here during the day to chat and play games with Xiao Ming. However, in the past few days, the Great Styx has not returned, and I went to the Wangshu Inn to find the Great Stylus, but I don't know where the Great Styx is hidden. I obviously feel the breath of the Great Underworld, but the Great Immortal just doesn't come out to see the Little Underworld. It was Xiao Ming who did something wrong to make Da Ming unhappy. As soon as he talked about the big underworld, the little underworld was depressed again.

"Don't be sad, Xiao Ming, Da Ming is just busy, and he will come back to play with you when he is done." Liang Jiu said comfortingly, but his mood was very heavy. The ghost can feel the breath of the same kind, which is the knowledge point in the induction training of the employees of the Afterlife Hall, that is to say, the ghost is still in Wangshu Inn!
