Chapter 608: Clues Appear, The Misty Forest
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it is because after all, Wang Hu is not particularly familiar with us yet. So he is a little reserved and can't let go. As a weak ghost, he must be afraid of practitioners like me and Lao Cao. Uh.
...Okay, I shamelessly put myself together with Lao Cao. Actually
I'm still far away! But even with my current strength, I'm still very powerful to Wang Hu. I smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Wang, Lao Cao and I
They are all very kind people, righteous practitioners with upright roots. You should just get along with us normally while you are still alive."
Lao Cao also said casually: "Yes, if we met in life, even if I were your boss, I would definitely not be so reserved, right?"
Wang Hu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. "Okay, Mr. Wu, good boss."
After solving this matter, I had time to talk to Lao Cao in detail about the matter of finding Li Miao to retrieve corpses from the Sichuan River tonight. The thrills during the process made Lao Cao's face change slightly. Wait.
After I finished everything, he frowned and sighed. "It seems,
In recent years, there have been more and more troubles in Lianghe Town. Just as you and Brother Li speculated, I also think these things are related. The good thing is that as long as one of them
If there is a breakthrough in this case, there should be clues to solve the rest."
I think what Lao Cao said makes sense, but the problem is... I don’t have a clue about these things at the moment. I can only do this for now, take it one step at a time. Wang Hu also sat next to me and listened to the conversation between Lao Cao and me.
But of course such a weak ghost like him is of no use in solving these problems. Just listen to it and gain some knowledge. Looking at the time, it’s almost one o’clock in the morning. I’m going to go back upstairs to sleep.
Before going upstairs, I looked
Wang Hu was at a loss what to do and seemed hesitant to speak. Only then did I realize that I hadn’t arranged where he would sleep at night! Although he was a ghost, he could stay anywhere. But since he was already a regular employee of the coffin shop,
I have to arrange a fixed place to live, right? I thought about it and said: "Brother Wang, if you don't mind, you can live in the empty corridor room next to me. It was originally the paper man and horse that Lao Cao had tied up there.
of."
After hearing what I said, Lao Cao suddenly realized. He was a little embarrassed to say that he was older and didn't think things through enough. Just let Wang Hu tell me where he wanted to live. Wang Hu thought for a while and finally said: "
Boss, Brother Wu, I’ll just live in the front of the shop. I’ll just keep watch on the door.”
"That's fine, as long as you like it, Brother Wang."
After saying that, I went upstairs to sleep. At six o'clock the next morning, I woke up on time. After sleeping through the night, I felt refreshed and all the fatigue from last night had been wiped away.
Even the strength of the soul and body has increased very slightly. Yes, sleeping skills are so magical! After Lao Cao taught me this skill before, Master also said that he is really willing to give it up. As long as you insist on using sleeping skills every day
Sleeping, even if you don’t practice anything, after a long time, your soul and body will
The strength of the body will also be far beyond that of ordinary people. The strength of the fists and feet is strong, so stay away from sneaky people. Of course, he is a lazy man. It is impossible for me not to practice. Instead, I should take advantage of the sleep power to practice more spells and learn more cultural knowledge.
!I got dressed and got up
, walked through the corridor room on the second floor, and said hello to the paper people and horses - although they were impossible to answer. But I had a feeling of being responded to. Then I went downstairs and heard a greeting. "
Brother Wu, good morning."
I was startled and subconsciously took a step back. Then I immediately remembered that this was the ghost Wang Hu who had taken in last night. When I looked closely, I saw that Wang Hu was already cleaning with a broom, looking at me.
When he came downstairs, he stopped and smiled and said hello to me. This is how Lao Cao and I are like Xuanmen.
A cultivator can see that he is sweeping the floor with a broom - if an ordinary person came in, he would probably only see a broom moving by itself out of thin air, and he would probably be frightened! "Good morning, Brother Wang. Actually, you don't have to be like this.
It has been cleaned a long time ago. Anyway, our coffin shop doesn’t usually have many people coming here.”
Wang Hu scratched his head and replied honestly: "It's okay if I can't sleep anyway. I'll just do some exercise."
Since everyone said that, I smiled and nodded. In fact, what he said makes sense. Ghosts also need to be exercised! The soul body and the physical body are actually similar, and they both need to be strengthened through exercise. So he used the soul grip
Sweeping the floor with a broom is indeed exercising the soul. Of course, any [exercise] method without a method cannot be called [cultivation]. The speed of getting stronger is very slow, and it can only be said to be a win.
Yu Wu. But neither Lao Cao nor I have the method of ghost cultivation - and even if we do, we are not familiar with it to that extent yet, and it is impossible to teach it to Wang Hu. I admire it, I admire it, he is indeed a good father!
But it's impossible to trust him so much as soon as you join the coffin shop. You have to do some research first - there is still a three-month probation period for working as a living person. But I must keep these words in my heart, no
Maybe to put it bluntly. Since I was a child, I have been a quite complicated person. Many times I actually wonder, if it weren’t for the fact that I have a pair of parents who love me very much and are kind, and live in a happy family.
After I grew up, I had a master who encouraged me to study hard. I’m afraid that a person with my personality might have to go astray! After I left home, I went to Baozi not far away as usual.
I bought breakfast at the shop. Aunt Wang, who sells steamed buns, asked me with a smile, why I bought two more today. Are they guests at home? I shook my head and said no, it’s just that I may be growing and my appetite has increased. In fact,
This is for Wang Hu... I went back to the coffin shop and put Lao Cao's on the wooden table in his room, then gave two more to Wang Hu and let him eat. "Thank you, Brother Wu! I haven't had this for several years.
I’ve eaten steamed buns.”
He looked at the meat buns in his hand and felt a little emotional. Indeed, Wang Hu was crazy in the years before his death. He probably wouldn't be given fresh meat buns when he asked for food. As for him, he became a weakling after his death.
Although the quarrelmaker has recovered his normal consciousness and thinking
. But I didn’t dare to show up during the day, and I couldn’t eat the buns I bought in the morning. How do ghosts eat? It’s very simple, the gas from eating food! Wang Hu picked up the buns, put them to his mouth, and then opened his mouth.
I opened my mouth and inhaled hard. Exhale! I saw a faint white smoke coming from the bag.
The bun was sucked into Wang Hu's mouth, and inside his nose, his face showed a very satisfied expression. The bun quickly became rotten and shriveled up at a speed visible to the naked eye. It also exuded a unpleasant smell.
It smells sour, as if it has been left out under the high temperature in summer.
The same thing happened for two or three days. Wang Hu "ate" two buns in a row, absorbing the food energy in them, and the buns quickly went rancid, broken, and shriveled. I thought it was quite interesting and nodded: "
It turns out that ghosts really eat like this, and this is the first time I’ve seen it.”
Wang Hu was a little embarrassed and said, "I made Brother Wu laugh."
Then I put the spoiled buns into the trash can. I ate my own buns and went out. So, ghosts "eat" by absorbing the breath of food, and were "eaten" by ghosts.
The food will rot, shrivel, and go rancid very quickly. So, if people find the food at home, it is obviously in the winter when the temperature is relatively low. They just leave it on the table for a long time.
The food is spoiled. It is probably not natural decay, but... there is a ghost in the house! It has eaten your food. At this time, you have to be careful, because sometimes the only people who come in are hungry.
