Chapter 10: The Stars of the Year (5)
At this time, five or six little flower girls had surrounded Ah Guan, and the newlyweds stood behind them, staring at Ah Guan with expressionless faces.
Ah Guan's head was dizzy and painful, and his heart was terrified, and these eerie little flower girls and the bride and groom in front of him didn't look like people. Suddenly, he felt a tingling pain in the back of his neck.
It was the little flower boy who was climbing on his back, laughing strangely, and began to gnaw at the back of his neck.
"Ahh Guan struggled to his feet, grabbed the flower boy by the hair, and pulled it hard, pulling the little flower girl off his back. I saw that there was still some blood on the corner of the little flower boy's mouth, and he kept opening his mouth to laugh, his tongue and sharp teeth were bloody, he screamed twice, pulled Ah Guan's arm and opened his mouth to bite.
Guan was so frightened that he kicked the little flower boy away. The little flower girl struggled to her feet, sobbed twice, and began to cry.
All of a sudden, the rest of the flower girls stopped laughing, looked at Ah Guan, then looked at the little companion who was crying, and then at Ah Guan, all of them faded their smiles and replaced them with a gloomy and indifferent expression.
Just when Guan was feeling frightened and desperate, there was a slight vibration from his waist, which startled him. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a gray cloth bag.
"Ahh That's right! Only then did he remember what Tai Sui said before leaving—this cloth bag is for you to use as a self-defense weapon before the gang arrives...
"So that old man knew I was going to hit a ghost!" Ah Guan hurriedly took out the eight talismans in the cloth bag, threw the cloth bag on the ground casually, and slowly retreated to the wall, trembling and clenching the eight life-saving talismans.
"Ahh
Ah Guan didn't know how to use the talisman at all, and instinctively stretched out his hands to resist.
The little flower boy's body was stained with the talisman in Ah Guan's hand, and a burst of white light exploded on the ground. Guan closed his eyes with the bright light, and when he opened them again, he saw only a burst of fly ash and a severed limb in front of him—the remains of the little flower girl. The wreckage fell to the ground and instantly shattered into ash.
The Ghost Flower Girls let out a terrible scream, and they stamped their feet in anger and whirled around in anger as if they were mad.
And the yellow, thin-faced ghost groom, staring at a pair of blood-red eyes, strode towards Ah Guan.
Ah Guan looked at the talisman in his hand, two or three of them had turned to ashes, he took out one of the remaining talismans, waved it at the wizened ghost groom, trembling and said, "Get out..."
The ghost groom stared at the yellow charm and stopped. Suddenly, another ghost flower boy pounced behind Ah Guan, climbed on his back, and bit Ah Guan on the back of the neck. Ah Guan shouted, and put the talisman on the face of the ghost flower boy with his backhand, and another burst of white light flashed, blowing up the ghost flower boy's head entirely.
Ah Guan only felt that the back of his neck and face were a little hot, and there was some tinnitus, but the light and heat from the life talisman did not hurt him. He touched the back of his neck again, and let the ghost flower boy bite a few times one after another, but he didn't bite the middle artery, and the blood didn't flow much.
The ghost bridegroom reached out and grabbed the two ghost flower boys, and threw them at Ah Guan. Ah Guan was taken aback, and hurriedly used the talisman in his hand to block it, and blew up the oncoming ghost flower boy.
He looked at his hands, and there was only a pile of ashes left, all the charms were used up, but there were still two or three ghost flower girls around, and the evil ghost couple.
Guan was desperate. At the same time, his inexplicable headache and dizziness worsened, and his strength to stand was gone. He went limp, fell to his knees, opened his mouth and vomited.
The ghost groom walked slowly, stretched out a pair of withered yellow hands, tightly grabbed Ah Guan's neck, and lifted him into the air.
Ah Guan only felt that the ghost groom's hands were getting tighter and tighter, and he gradually lost his breath, and his eyes slowly darkened.
Suddenly, the ghost groom let out a terrible scream, let go of Ah Guan, jumped back, and retreated a long way.
Ah Guan finally sobered up and saw clearly. Something flew in the air, standing between him and the ghost bridegroom—the gray rag bag he had casually thrown on the ground.
And the ghost groom bent down slightly, covering half of his face with his hands, and black blood kept dripping from his fingers.
The cloth bag that soared in mid-air, and a hand slowly stretched out from the mouth of the bag. The arms were lean and strong, with blue-black veins floating on pale skin, and thick inky black nails about three centimeters long, which looked very sharp.
It wasn't like a human hand, it was more like a ghost's arm.
The ghost groom's hand covering his face was slowly lowered, and there were a few more terrifying scars on his face, and black and brown blood kept flowing.
It turns out that the magic weapon that Tai Sui said is this cloth bag, and the yellow charm is just an accessory.
"Ahh
The cloth bag quickly flashed the ghost flower boy's pounce, and the pale ghost hand that stretched out the mouth of the bag grabbed the head of a ghost flower girl, crushing the head like pinching an egg, and the colorful brains exploded in the air.
The other ghost flower boy pounced halfway, and when he saw that the pale ghost hand was so fierce, he screamed in fright, and before he could escape, he let the pale ghost hand grab his chest and scratch a big hole in his chest. It fell to the ground and struggled for a while, then turned into smoke and dispersed.
The ghost bridegroom roared viciously, opened his arms, and rushed towards the bag, as if he was going to fight the bag ghost hand.
The pale ghost hand swooped forward like a hawk, and his fingers pierced into the ghost groom's blood-red eyes. This stabbing method is also peculiar, with the thumb piercing the right eye and the other four fingers piercing the left eye.
The ghost groom screamed miserably, grabbed the bag hand tightly, and pulled it desperately, but he couldn't tear the bag hand off. The bag hand grabbed the eye socket of the ghost groom, lifted him into the air, and threw it hard against the wall, causing the ghost groom to snort miserably.
The ensuing scene was extremely tragic, with the bag holding the ghost groom and slamming into the surrounding walls one by one. Every impact made the stunned Aguan, who was on the sidelines, tremble, and he felt that everything was shaking all around, and the walls were stained with blood. And the ghost bride howled and rushed up to help her husband deal with the bagman.
Ah Guan took advantage of this opportunity, plucked up all his strength, and ran away without looking back.
The splattered blood stains and fierce screams gradually faded away.
He finally ran out of the alley.
Although it was midnight, there were still many people on the street. Somehow, Guan's head was less dizzy and less painful. He patted his face to sober himself up, leaning back in the shadows to reflect on what had just happened.
Since he woke up in the hospital, he has encountered strange events one after another, and even encountered ghosts that could only be seen in movies and comics before.
He hesitated whether he should go back and retrieve the sack, or walk away.
The eight yellow talismans that Tai Sui gave him have run out, and there is no magic weapon on his body that can resist ghosts, if he encounters any demons and monsters again, it will definitely be a dead end. But if there was a tragic fight in the alley just now, and in the end, the bag hand lost, and the ghost couple won, and now he is turning back like this, wouldn't he be caught in the net?
Guan didn't want to take any chances, and when he thought of the blood-red eyes of the ghost couple, he still had palpitations. He tried to stay in crowded places and wandered aimlessly. Although the filthy stench on his body caused him a lot of embarrassing eyes, it was at least better than being chased by terrifying ghosts.
At this time, it was close to the early hours of the morning, and Ah Guan stayed at all the convenience stores that could be stayed nearby. He was penniless, dirty, and embarrassed to stay in it and buy nothing.
Physically and mentally exhausted, he walked farther and farther away from home, and finally came to a river embankment. It was a river embankment that he would pass every day when he was still in night school, and there were not many people nearby, it was very quiet, and it was a place where he could relax.
He walked over to the embankment and found a place to sit. He had smelled the stench of the rune water for too long, almost numb and didn't feel it, but the clothes and pants that had been drenched in the rune water were still wet, and the winter nights were extremely cold, so he shrunk up into a ball to keep as warm as possible.
There are buildings on the other side of the river, and behind the low-rise old apartments are towering buildings, creating a fantastic visual contrast. The sky was full of dense clouds, and the moon could not be seen, only a few starlight could be faintly seen from a few gaps.
At this time, the lights around him were almost turned off, and Ah Guan looked at the river in a daze, he should have felt sad, but he couldn't. From waking up in the hospital to the present, a series of strange things have happened, and it seems to be a farce.
