Chapter 16 The skin is beautiful
At some point, the snow stopped.
The ghost cry, who had recovered from his recovery, pushed open the window, and the window was quite tight, and with some effort, the snow on the roof slipped down.
Outside, the moonlight was faintly shining, and a silvery white ground reflected the light. By this time, it was already evening.
"I didn't expect to come here by accident. Devil Cry saw the avenue on the side, and the path that loomed into the depths, and determined the location of this place, which was the hunter's cabin in the shopkeeper's mouth.
The wind blew and it was cold. Devil Cry was about to close the window, when he suddenly snapped his hand and closed the window.
Then, when he got to the door, he went to open it.
"What's wrong?" Nangong asked by fetching a handful of firewood and throwing it into the stove, clapping his hands.
Ghost Cry replied, "There seems to be something out there, I'll take a look." ”
Nangong instructed: "Be careful." ”
"Hmm. Ghost Cry responded and pulled the door open.
Underneath the wooden ladder is a snowfield buried deep in the snow.
In the snow, on that avenue, a humanoid raised mark crawled on the snow.
Oni Cry pulled out his long knife, and the scabbard was thrown behind him, and it was caught by the big mouth wrapped around his waist.
Then, he crossed the threshold, gently closed the door, and stepped on the small wooden ladder in front of the threshold. The ladder was also covered with snow, and when you stepped on it, the snow slipped down and fell into the snow below.
One step down the ladder, and then his legs sank deep into the snow, directly over his ankles.
Ghost Cry was shocked in his heart, such a deep snow, how big the snow was just now can be imagined.
One foot deep and one foot shallow, he walked down the avenue to the raised mark of the human figure.
Before he could cut through the layer of snow on the surface, the raised mark of the human figure moved on its own.
The snow slid away on both sides, and then a man staggered to his feet.
He was wearing a fur coat, his long hair was simply tied up, he stared at a pair of dead fish eyes and looked at the ghost crying blankly, and slowly spoke: "Why don't you open the door, why don't you open the door, why don't you open the door......"
His breath became weaker and weaker, and as the last breath of hot air was exhaled, the white mist condensed in front of him was blown away by the wind, and he could no longer speak, just opened and closed his mouth.
This is clearly a dead person, but because the resentment is too strong, it is resurrected again, and the powerful resentment forcibly imprisons the soul in the body and drives the body to act.
Looking at the hunting bow he carried, the wood knife at his waist to open the way, and the rough leather boots on his feet, he must be a hunter, but it is also very likely that he is a corpse picker.
The words of the guy in the inn in Guobei County, the ghost cry has not forgotten. From his words, it is not difficult to guess that the group of people who originally picked up the corpses in the vicinity of the old forest outside Lanruo Temple were the nearby hunters, and who else had the courage to do so.
In any case, there is no objection to these speculations, the person is dead, and the corpse has become a corpse demon, for the sake of the future, it is better to let the bad corpse that can move become a good corpse that cannot move!
This corpse, which had been frozen to death and had been transformed, moved. He pulled out the firewood knife on his waist, opened and closed his mouth, and the firewood knife in his hand was rounded, and slashed at the ghost cry.
Ghost Cry raised his hand to block the chopping wood knife, and with a backhand, he cut off the head of the corpse demon in front of him and the arm holding the weapon.
Everything was as simple as drinking water, and as the head and the arm holding the weapon fell to the ground, the corpse collapsed into the white snow.
It can be regarded as a small hidden danger, and when Ghost Cry relaxes slightly, the bell shakes faster, and the louder it becomes.
In the distance, a wolf howl was heard.
Deep in the old forest, the undulating glow tells the ghosts to cry that the wolves are approaching.
Ghost Cry narrowed his eyes, and his brain kept recalling the previous scenes, and after making up for it, this situation was in his mind now.
In the snow, something seems to be scratching the door, most likely a pack of wolves. After the wolves walked away, the unlucky hunter who was hiding on the side was frozen half to death, and came to knock on the door, but Ghost Cry and Nangong had no intention of opening the door, and in desperation, he turned around and left along the avenue, who knew that he didn't take a few steps, his strength was exhausted, and he fell to the ground and was frozen to death.
It was not advisable to stay outside for a long time, and the three steps of the ghost cry turned into two steps, and returned to the wooden house.
"How's it going outside?" asked Nangong.
Ghost Cry rubbed his hands in anger and replied, "There is a newborn corpse demon that has been dealt with by me. But there are also wolves, which are quite troublesome. ”
After listening to the ghost crying, Nangong leaned down to the door, looked out through the small hole, and sure enough, there were many wolves. Their eyes reflected a ghostly light, peering into the depths of the old forest.
It is not clear exactly how many, but it must have reached the dozens.
"What should we do next?" Nangong asked.
"What else can I do. The ghost cried and leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, looking at the roaring fire in the stove: "Rest, eat, replenish your energy, and set off tomorrow morning." ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you. ”
......
In Lanruo Temple, the red waves on the bed are flying.
"No, no. ”
The shopkeeper poked his head out, his face was pale, his tongue was sticking out, and he looked exhausted.
"Old dog, is this not going to work, I remember you were pretty good when you were young!" Another head poked out of the cupboard, full of black hair, a face as white as pink, and red lips as red as blood. This is a beautiful woman, very beautiful and beautiful, so beautiful that it is false, so beautiful that it makes people feel frightened.
She flowed out of the quilt like water, licked her lips unwillingly, and looked at the shopkeeper with green eyes, like a she-wolf who had not eaten enough.
The shopkeeper's frightened face was as white as this female ghost, and he waved his hand again and again: "No, it's really not good, if you keep doing it, you'll die." ”
The female ghost covered her mouth and giggled: "Don't you often say that when the peony flower dies, it is also romantic to be a ghost?"
The shopkeeper laughed dryly: "When you are young, your thoughts are inevitably different from those when you are older, you want to enjoy when you are young, and you naturally start to think about health when you are older." ”
"People's minds are really changeable, why don't you come and be a ghost, after becoming a ghost, you will naturally understand the beauty of ghosts. The female ghost put on a hazy veil, facing the bronze mirror, combing her makeup.
"What's going on outside?" The shopkeeper diverted the topic, it is true that this female ghost is telling the truth, and she does think so, but the shopkeeper is not her after all, and she still thinks it is better to be a person.
"The snow has stopped. The female ghost took out a bottle of blood, smeared it on her lips, and then carefully applied powder to her face, and asked casually, "Is that man really as strong as you say?"
"Naturally, yes. The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I've seen so many people, and his strength can be ranked in the top ten." ”
The female ghost stretched out her scarlet slender tongue, licked her red lips, and showed greed in her eyes: "If that's the case, grandma should be very happy, grandma is happy, and I am also happy, so naturally your benefits are indispensable." ”
The shopkeeper said: "Not only that, but there is also a woman beside him, a very beautiful woman." ”
"Beautiful. The female ghost looked at herself in the mirror, after transformation, she was also very beautiful, but the beauty was too fake, this skin, which was about to expire, made her more and more dissatisfied, and her heart was anxious.
