Chapter 40: The Grave Keeper
The throbbing in her heart grew stronger as the stone door opened, almost making her rush in desperately, but fortunately there was still a glimmer of will for her not to do so.
Finally, the stone door opened, and out of the darkness came an old man who was hunched, he approached with a smile, and stopped a few steps away from Fang Chi, and the stone door behind him also slowly closed at this time.
Fang Chi felt that the child under his feet was struggling more and more violently after the door began to close, and he could only secretly increase his strength to prevent him from escaping.
Don't look at this old man smiling kindly, who knows if it's with him.
"Don't be so nervous, little girl, I'm not the same as this ghost boy."
A gust of wind blew away the gray hair that covered half of his face, revealing the gray eye, while the other narrowed with a smile, as if it had no ill will towards her.
"Who are you?" Fang Chi didn't let her guard down, Song Xiuyu was not there in front of her, she didn't have the confidence that she could escape from the two enemies.
The old man's smile paused, and he said, "Grave keeper." ”
"It doesn't matter if I don't know, I'll explain it to you in detail later, let me teach this thief a lesson first!"
After speaking, the old man's face changed, and he conjured a slender wooden stick about two feet long out of thin air, and his bent waist gradually straightened, and his eyes looked gloomily at the ghost child at the foot of Fang Chi.
Fang Chi was surprised to find that this old man was so tall, and such a long wooden stick was not abrupt at all when he held it in his hand, but as if it was tailor-made for him.
The ghost boy was so frightened that he was even more frightened than just now. His body had long since returned to its original state, but he did not dare to move.
The fear of the evil thing to the grave keeper is engraved in the bones, just like a mouse meets a cat, after all, it cannot resist the restraint relationship between species.
The old man didn't care if there was anyone else, he jumped up and beat him down, if Fang Chi hadn't flashed fast enough, it was estimated that he would have beaten her together.
In fact, he wanted to get rid of the thief quickly, and forgot to remind the little girl to get out of the way.
When you're older, be more considerate.
The ghost boy crawled away from the place, only to see a large cloud of dust raised from the place where he was lying just now, and the smoke and dust dispersed, revealing a deep mark on the ground, which was enough to see that the old man had made a real move to kill him!
The ghost boy was horrified, and he didn't dare to stay here for a long time, leaving the green mountains without worrying about the lack of firewood, and ignoring the broken lanterns he fell, he rushed to the jungle with his little short legs.
The old man pretended to chase a few steps, drank loudly, and broke the surrounding logs with a stick, making a loud noise.
The ghost boy didn't even dare to turn his head back, how did he know that the old man didn't chase after him at all, he just wanted to run and run, and it was okay for him to bluff people, but no one could beat him if he really fought!
"Ahem......"
Fang Chi watched the whole 'performance' in a daze, not understanding the meaning of what he was doing.
Retracting the stick, the old man turned into the bent appearance again, he walked briskly, bypassed the broken wood and came to Fang Chi, and explained: "The ghost child bullies the weak and fears the hard, but he has not done the most evil things, and he does not need to kill them all. ”
Although Fang Chi felt that his approach was a bit problematic, he didn't bother to correct it.
She now wanted to know what the purpose of his appearance was, whether the stone door opened directly above the tomb, whether it was related to the whereabouts of the monks, and most importantly, she should have come out of the ghost child's spirit binding domain now, but why didn't she see Song Xiuyu, and where did he go?
