Volume III: The Ghost Is Immortal Chapter 127: The Legend of Dead Souls

The moon is cold, and the ancient town is forested.

In the inn, Si Quan and the two continued to listen to the shopkeeper's narration.

"In the past hundred years, there has never been a person who can survive at night, and the two of them are good at themselves. ”

Outside the house, it seemed to be dark for a moment, leaving Sunset no time to retreat. Tianxue also understood what Xiao Er meant, others would never walk out of the inn, so she took out a few hundred taels of tickets.

"If someone is giving up their room to stay in the hall for the night, the money is his. ”

Si Quan saw Xiao Er's inquiring gaze and secretly said that it was not good, the money on his body was not as good as Tianxue, but don't show his stuffing, so he had an idea, grabbed Tianxue's big bill and said, "I'll sleep in the hall tonight." ”

Tianxue's face immediately turned gloomy, as if she felt that Si Quan's behavior had lost face, so she pretended to be unfamiliar with Si Quan, and called Xiao Er to step forward and lead the way.

The disappointment on Xiao Er's face could not be concealed, and he looked at Si Quan and left step by step.

Si Quan secretly regretted that this kind of method could no longer be used on Tianxue in the future. A man glanced down the hall and the table was already cleaned. In the entire store, it seems that there is only one shopkeeper.

"Guest, your companion has taken over. ”

Si Quan was still thinking about it, and Xiao Er came downstairs.

"I'm doing well for you, and I've given you the money. ”

Xiao Er immediately smiled, and what Si Quan handed over was a few big bills before Tianxue.

"I've seen a lot of people over the years, but it's still unheard of for Childe to be so naturally noble. Childe, rest assured, it won't be long before you can hold the beauty. ”

Regarding Xiao Er's sycophancy, Si Quan turned a deaf ear and asked, "Why are you the only one in the store?"

"No, everyone else has gone home early, and today it is my turn to be on duty, except for the guests who have already slept, just you and me. ”

"So early?"

"Yo, the guest officer won't think that what I just said was deliberately deceiving your girlfriend, right?"

"What's going on?"

"This town is very weird!"

Xiao Er looked left and right for a while, and whispered: "There are dirty things roaming in this town at night, and they will kill the living." Childe, let's go back to your room, and remember that if someone calls your name at night, don't make a noise anyway. Needless to say, I'm going to hide under the covers too. ”

Speaking of dirty things, Xiao Er's face was full of panic, and he told Si Quan the location of the Tianzi room and hurriedly ran away.

Maybe it was because of Xiao Er's infection, Si Quan felt that the whole hall was gloomy, and vaguely, he seemed to think of something.

In the middle of the night in Jiangjia Town, it was the time when the yin qi was at its heaviest.

The crowd was already asleep, and a scream tore the night sky, the dog did not bark and the rooster did not crow, and the people who heard it clung tightly to the quilt.

Si Quan got up from the bed, opened the window and listened carefully to the direction where the sound came from, when there was movement outside the door.

"Authority"

A woman's shout made Si Quan's scalp tingle. When he first arrived in this strange town, how could anyone know about him, let alone call the door in the middle of the night? He instantly thought: What Xiao Er said is true!

"If I don't open the door again, I'll come in by myself. ”

The slightly angry voice sounded again, Si Quan breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door, and it was Tianxue standing outside.

"How do you know I'm here?"

Tianxue pointed to the next door and said, "I'm separated from you by a wall, what do you say?"

Knowing that his trick had been discovered, Si Quan immediately changed the topic to avoid embarrassment: "The strangeness here is definitely not a natural phenomenon, why don't we go out and have a look." ”

"It turns out that you still remember the business" Tianxue glared at her and continued: "Listening to what this shopkeeper said, I suspect that it is the means of Ghost City, so I want to come and discuss it with the landlord." ”

Tianxue bit and said the word landlord, Si Quan didn't seem to hear it, and nodded slightly in agreement.

"The people of Ghost City disappeared around this town, and I felt that this matter had something to do with them. Isn't it incredible, as the townspeople say?"

"It's just chasing after the wind, just like the mainland thinks that our Xuanji Building is wonderful, but laymen don't understand it. ”

"Makes sense, change clothes, let's act together. ”

The moonlight in Jiangjia Town was distant and cold, and in the streets and alleys, it was dark and dreary at this time.

In the northwest of the town, under the miserable white moonlight, a corpse lay not far from the thatched house. It seems that he should have been killed by getting up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet.

The deceased was a man, with no scars all over his body, his eyes were cracked, and he maintained the fear before death, if he was scared to death, his skin turned purple-black.

Si Quan and the two first hid in the dark to observe, and along the way, except for the moonlight, which was relatively white, the night was too quiet, and none of the dirty things in the shopkeeper's mouth were touched.

"You watch around, I'll take a look. ”

"I'd better go, although I don't want to admit you, but it's my responsibility to risk the landlord's life. ”

"Listen to me when you know I'm the landlord. ”

Si Quan has always been machismo, not to mention that a woman like Tianxue, who gathers the aura of heaven and earth, is still the object of his ill intentions.

Looking at Si Quan's back, Tianxue was dissatisfied, he knew that the other party would do this. Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of a floating shadow in the corner of my eye, and when I looked closely, my heart was instantly nervous: in the dim moonlight, a shadow that flickered white and green, and my feet did not touch the ground, floated towards Si Quan.

Without being reminded by Tianxue, Si Quan had already seen the shadow floating towards him. He could see the real thing behind it through the shadow's body, and he had always flattered the living, let alone the psychology of the dead, Si Quan waited for the shadow to approach.

"Pretending to be a ghost"

Before Si Quan could move, Tianxue stabbed at the shadow with a cold sword. The shadow stopped, and reached out to catch it with an illusory hand. Si Quan took the opportunity to step up, and just as he was about to stab in, the shadow disappeared.

Tianxue changed color: "It's weird, the internal force can't perceive it!"

"Maybe it's something other than the Yin Ghost!"

The two of them were nervous, back to back guarding against their surroundings.

"Go back, it probably won't come out tonight. ”

Tianxue nodded and replied, and the inexplicable scene also scared her unconsciously.

As soon as he returned to the room, Tianxue tore off the mask without changing his clothes, took a sip of tea, and Si Quan sat aside and pondered.

"Hey, you're not going to be stupefied, are you?"

Seeing that Si Quan had been in a daze, Tianxue sneered.

"What happened before was too weird, can you be sure that it was a method of Ghost City?"

Tianxue felt uncomfortable when she thought of the white-green changing figure, and replied angrily:

"How do I know? You also saw that sword, the other party is clearly just an illusory shadow, but he really caught my sword empty-handed. ”

"And the question is, why did it disappear out of thin air?"

"Think slowly, by the way. ”

used the move that Si Quan used at the beginning, and Tianxue kicked his shoes and lay directly on Si Quan's bed. Turned around on the side that Si Quan couldn't see, and quietly pressed the silver needle that he was going to let Si Quan enjoy.

Si Quan didn't have to think about it to know that Tianxue just stayed in his room because he had palpitations. She would certainly not fall asleep on such a night, so she pretended to be a gentleman and kept watch until dawn.

The customers in the store woke up with the rising sun, and the screams of last night were commonplace as after-dinner conversations.

Si Quan and the two sat in a corner of the hall for breakfast, Tianxue tirelessly endured the peeking glances of other men, and was about to go back to the room after eating a few bites, when a man who didn't know what to do came over.

"You two don't mind taking a place in the next place, do you?"

"Didn't you see that there were already people here?"

The other party said politely, but Tianxue shouted without raising his head.

Si Quan's first impression was that the other party was hiding too deeply. Not to mention that it is a good way to hide the amazement of Tianxue in his eyes, after being scolded, he still has a warm smile.

"I see that the two eyes are not locals, I wonder if I can use a local legend of dead souls to change seats?"

Si Quan's heart froze, and he pointed to a direction that blocked the eyes of other men and smiled:

"Brother sit on the stage, and we're almost done eating. ”

Obviously, Si Quan was interested in this legend.
