Chapter 1150 Scenery Burial
The headless general's greeting brought the three of them back to reality, so that they would not suspect that the ghost town where they had experienced life and death before was a fake ghost town.
As soon as Qian Cang walked out of Qingshi Lane, the gray sky made people feel a little depressed even when they breathed.
He looked around and saw that the original street was covered with white cloth, and no matter how it was a restaurant or a courtyard where he lived alone, every household had left behind.
White seems to have become a must-have color in ghost towns.
The teams in the distance have gradually left the street, and suddenly the whole street has become empty.
"What happened in Ghost Town?" Qian Cang once chose to get straight to the point, and directly asked the most puzzled question in his heart.
Since the headless general knew them and did not attack, it means that both sides could have a good talk. Therefore, Qian Cangyi did not intend to waste this opportunity.
The black horse kicked the hind legs and turned to look at Qian Cangyi. His black eyes seemed to have endless resentment.
"Don't you realize it? This is not like your previous performance when you left Ghost Town." The headless general asked, his voice was relatively low, and the echo of his armor seemed to have a reverberation.
Because most of the time, the headless generals didn't say a word, so Qian Cangyi didn't realize this until now.
"I need a certain answer. I hope you won't tell me that the human snake Bai Lian is dead." Qian Cangyi gritted his teeth. He didn't really want him to get this result, because it means that he completely lost control of the human snake Bai Lian, and the situation in Ghost Town will be even more confusing.
Whether human, snake, Bai Lian, died real or fake death, the situation became increasingly serious.
First of all, the scales of human snakes have disappeared, and their advantage over ghosts will disappear due to the death of human snakes. Although it is not clear whether the scales in Wang Qingfen's hands still exist, it is not a suitable idea to pin your hopes on this matter.
Secondly, the protection of humans and snakes for them will disappear. They cannot walk freely in the ghost town. The resentful ghosts and evil ghosts in the ghost town will notice that they are living people. According to the newspaper ghost and the blacksword, the taste of living people is like drugs to ghosts and is almost irresistible.
These two points alone can make them difficult to move forward, not to mention that doing so is itself planning a bigger plan.
"It is indeed as you said, the human snake Bai Lian has died. Now the mayor of the ghost town is Xu Su." General Wutou replied.
"Xu Su?" The shadow puppet frowned. She didn't understand why the situation became like this now.
"Can we meet Xu Su?" Wutong took a deep breath and made her request.
"I have no objection, but Xu Su didn't see anyone, and we couldn't even see him. If he had any requests, he would tell us the news through a letter." The black horse under the crotch of the headless general shook his head, which was to help the headless general make up for the regret of having no head.
"Wait." Qian Cang called out General Wutou. He found something was wrong. He asked, "You mean, after the death of the man, snake, Bai Lian, Xu Su ruled the ghost town. What he did was just to take over the man, snake, Bai Lian?"
"Yes." The headless general pulled the reins and replied, "I still have a lot of things to do. I don't have time to waste time on you. If you stay where you are, I will find someone to take you to visit. After all, you are still our guests now."
The black horse raised its feet and ran forward, and the headless general galloping away raised dust.
The three of them looked at each other in a glance.
Even if the headless general Li Kuang did not answer their questions again, the answer just now could shock the three of them. Of course, all this was based on the fact that Li Kuang said was true. Perhaps the situation in Ghost Town is the same as before, but they have not seen it yet.
About five minutes later, a gentle man appeared at the entrance of the alley, and there was a faint smell of corpse stinking on him.
As soon as Qian Cang saw this ghost, he quickly pulled the two people around him back.
This ghost is Hou Wenyao. It only needs to touch it to kill a living person. In view of this, when the human and snake arranged the trial, it not only arranged it in the last level, but also turned it into a chase battle. Even so, one of the four actors who fled at the beginning died at Hou Wenyao.
"Just stand there." Qian Cang pointed to the ground, meaning that this is the limit.
Because even when he got the human snake scales, the three of them were unwilling to get too close to Hou Wenyao, so Qian Cangyi made this request and would not arouse Hou Wenyao's suspicion. Perhaps Hou Wenyao also believed that they had human snake scales.
"Li Kuang asked me to come. He asked me to take you to see the current ghost town. To be honest, there have been many things in the ghost town during this period, and you will never think of what happened." Hou Wenyao patted his hands and made a gesture of invitation.
"You lead the way!" Qian Cang nodded.
No matter what the situation is ahead, they must understand it before they can know it.
As a guide, Hou Wenyao led the three of them to walk on the empty street.
"Now the ghosts are all gathered at the lucky memorial hall. They are praying for the human snake Bai Lian, hoping that the human snake Bai Lian can rest in peace and nostalgia for the affairs of the ghost town again." Hou Wenyao turned around, and while walking backwards, he told the three of them about the situation of the ghost town at this time.
"Why will the human snake Bai Lian die?" Wu Tong's expression on her face was completely unbelievable.
"I don't know the specific reason, but I heard from Li Kuang that it is related to Xu Su." Hou Wenyao shook his head, and he gradually slowed down. Qian Cangyi and the other two also slowed down when they saw this situation. It is worth mentioning that even though Hou Wenyao acted harmless at this time, the three of them still kept a safe distance from him.
"Have Xu Su killed the man and snake Bai Lian?" asked the shadow puppet.
"Ah? You don't know?" Hou Wenyao showed a look of surprise on his face. Of course, even if he was surprised, there was still a faint smile on his lips. Seeing that the three of them did not answer, he continued, "Human Snake Bai Lian committed suicide."
"Self-...self-...self-suspicious?" The shadow play opened its eyes wide.
Qian Cang blinked without answering. He was observing Hou Wenyao's expression, but he could not tell the truth.
"Yes, commit suicide." Hou Wenyao nodded heavily.
"Why did he commit suicide?" Wutong frowned.
"He said that he wanted to end all this and continue to fight Xu Su, and he might not win, and it seemed that he could not see the end. This was not the result he wanted. He thought it was not important who led the Ghost Town. What was important was that the Ghost Town could continue to develop." Hou Wenyao said this and looked up at the sky.
At this time, Qian Cangyi and the other two had already walked to a wider street. This street was different from the empty street just now. The street was filled with white candles, which were placed along the edge of the road, and four were placed at equal intervals of one meter. The white candles extended to the end of the field of view.
"All the main roads in Gui Town are filled with candles," Hou Wenyao explained.
Qian Cang thought of the map he had seen from the ghost of the newspaper boy. The overall structure of the ghost town was not regular, but the main road in the ghost town was crossing horizontally and vertically.
"I'll take you to the lucky memorial hall!" Hou Wenyao pointed to the right and said, and after he said that, he took the lead in walking forward.
The three of them exchanged their eyes. They planned to stay away from Hou Wenyao and discuss it separately.
The distance between the two sides gradually widens.
"In theory, Xu Su's purpose should be to save the resentful ghosts, and resenting the resentful ghosts will gradually reduce the scale of the ghost town. How can we develop it? In this case, the result of the human snake Bai Lian handing over the ghost town to Xu Su should be that the ghost town gradually returns to normal." Qian Cangyi expressed his thoughts.
"What if Xu Su is lying to us? Xu Su is also a resentful ghost. If he lies with our purpose only to seize power, then everything is very clear." Wutong proposed a possibility.
"Indeed, and if it is to seize power, it can also explain the reason for the suicide of Man Snake Bai Lian. With the power shown by the scales of human snakes, Man Snake Bai Lian can regain control of the Ghost Town at any time. Anyway, I think so, that is, if Xu Su wants to control the Ghost Town forever, Man Snake Bai Lian must die!" The shadow play continued along Wutong's guess.
"When it comes to controlling ghost towns, did Xu Su get the main body of the ghost town? The so-called controlling ghost towns must have enough symbolic items or real power. I think the main body of the ghost town is not a symbolic item. It is likely that the ghost town itself can control the survival of the ghost town itself, and even have more powerful functions." Qian Cangyi said in a low voice.
"Did we have been used by Xu Su before?" Wutong's face turned dark.
"No matter what Xu Su's purpose is, we are all used by him. The only problem now is that his purpose conflicts with our purpose, and it is not the same." Qian Cangyi sighed lightly.
"You have to talk to Xu Su!" Shadow Pian licked his lips.
"Li Kuang said just now that Xu Su is not seen anyone, I think we may not see Xu Su." Wutong pointed out this.
"Maybe Li Kuang is lying to us, and Xu Su never appeared from beginning to end." The shadow play said.
"In this way, we still cannot see Xu Su. No matter what the situation is, we cannot face-to-face with Xu Su. Moreover, He Jian is not in the ghost town now. Without him as a reference, we don't know if the ghost we see is real Xu Su." Qian Cang gritted his teeth, and he suddenly thought of a possibility.
After all this was connected, a guess came to Qian Cang's mind, "I suddenly thought of the purpose of human snake Bai Lian's fake death."
"What purpose?" Wutong asked.
Qian Cang replied: "The reason why Xu Su can sneakily make noise under Xu Su's nose is that the human snake is in the light, while Xu Su is in the dark, so he can do things while the human snake Bai Lian is not paying attention. But once he pretends to die, even if all the ghosts know that the human snake Bai Lian is fake death, the human snake Bai Lian hides in the dark."
"In this way, no matter what Xu Su is doing or what he intends to do, he needs to be wary of being caught by the human snake Bai Lian behind the yellow bird. I think this may be the plan of the human snake Bai Lian. He knew that after we used the scales of the human snake to save the star ghost, we did not become angry, but grabbed the point in an instant. He planned to solve Xu Su at one time."
After hearing Qian Cangyi's thoughts, Shadow Pian and Wutong fell into deep thought. After a few seconds, the two of them raised their heads almost at the same time and were about to ask questions. The atmosphere was suddenly awkward.
"You talk first." Wutong said to the shadow puppet.
The shadow play nodded and she said, "If the man, snake, Bai Lian, hide in the dark, then who will execute his plan? If "Lucky 2" cannot be filmed, the resentment of the ghost town will naturally dissipate. Even if it is best to maintain its current scale, it will not be possible to realize the idea of the man, snake, Bai Lian, who wants to expand the ghost town."
"This is indeed a question, but I can't answer it yet, so I'll see it later." Qian Cang nodded.
"My thoughts are the same as Tao Zhenru, because if he didn't need the leader of the man, snake, Bai Lian, then he could have given the filming of "Lucky 2" to his subordinates. However, he did not do this, which means that this matter is not that simple." Wutong also expressed his opinion.
The discussion between the three people has come to an end, and there are two conclusions.
One is Xu Su who deceived them. Xu Su did not intend to save the resentful ghosts. Everything he did was to seize control of the ghost town. The other is that this was the plan of the human snake Bai Lian, who deliberately pretended to die and let himself hide in the dark, waiting for Xu Su to appear, and then he appeared and wiped out Xu Su in one fell swoop.
As we get closer and closer to the Lucky Memorial Hall, the number of ghosts around us gradually increases.
These ghosts knelt on the side of the road, wearing white clothes and white cloth on their foreheads, and their expressions were sad, as if they were sad about the death of humans, snakes and whites.
On the wide streets, paper money can be seen everywhere, and a gust of wind blows, blowing the paper money all over the sky.
"Do you know? In fact, they are not only commemorating the human snake Bai Lian, but also commemorating the star ghosts who have been saved by you." Hou Wenyao turned his head and said to the three of them.
What? Why did he know?
Qian Cang was stunned for a moment. He looked around and found that some ghosts had indeed black and white photos of the hands of star ghosts. Although the number could not be compared with that of human, snake, Bai Lian, but there were indeed.
Hou Wenyao seemed to notice the expressions of the three people, and he replied in a relaxed tone: "What the human snake Bai Lian told us is that he said that only you can do this. In fact, he planned to persuade you, but humans and ghosts have different paths. He knew that this is a good deed for you, so he did not punish you, just let Li Kuang and the others return to the ghost town."
Qian Cang took a deep breath and felt that the situation was developing more and more than his expectations. He couldn't help swallowing and looked at the resentful ghosts kneeling on the ground on both sides of the ghost town. A creepy feeling arose.
These ghosts are actually commemorating the rest of the ghosts...
Shocked, fear, and anxiety, these emotions surged into my heart at the same time.
"Isn't it good to resent the resentful ghosts? They all thank us..." Wutong tried to refute, but her tone was not firm.
"Little girl, why do you think it's good? Do you know what happens to us in the next life? What if it becomes worse? Since it may not necessarily become better after reincarnation, why do we have to reincarnate? Isn't it good to stay in the ghost town?" The old man kneeling on one side suddenly looked up and answered Wutong's question.
After the old man spoke, the resentful ghosts around him all looked up at the three of them, their eyes full of questioning.
When Qian Cang saw this, his movements slowed down, and he was worried that these resentful ghosts would suddenly attack.
