Chapter 51 The Ghost King of the Ancient House
After dealing with the monster who liked to eat human heads and turn people into fish to sell in the market, the scholar took the little girl and walked towards an ancient house in the city.
It was already completely dark. The reason why he rushed to the ancient house so quickly was because he was worried that the ghosts in the house would eat the corpses of the big monsters he threw in.
Although the scholar had given them a serious warning when they threw the corpses in, there was still no guarantee that the ghosts would not be greedy for the corpses of the great demons. If they ignored the scholar's warning and ate the corpses of the great demons,
, the scholar had no way to explain to Bai Ling.
When he thought of Bai Ling, the scholar raised his head and looked at the dark sky. The battle between the demon kings was about to come to an end, and he didn't know whether Bai Ling would win or lose.
But this has nothing to do with the scholar, as long as Bai Ling does not harm the people around him. Under this premise, no matter what kind of demon Bai Ling fights, the scholar will not interfere in this matter.
There are still many officers and soldiers surrounding this house, but the eyes of these officers and soldiers are full of fear at this moment. After all, it is completely dark today, and this house is also haunted. If they continue to stay near this house, what if?
If they annoy the ghosts in the house, what should they do if those ghosts come out to deal with them?
The general was a bit confused at this time. He had obviously received the news that the two monsters were hiding in the house, but they kept guard until dark and did not see the two monsters come out.
He had heard of how powerful the ghosts in this mansion were. No matter how powerful the two monsters were, there was no way they could survive in the hands of these ghosts.
Of course, this is just what the general thinks. In his opinion, if these two monsters are really strong, how could they be caught by him.
"Keep guarding. We just came here to catch the monsters. We didn't take the things in this house. The ghosts here shouldn't be able to deal with us. But the two monsters who went in will be in a very embarrassed state later.
He escaped with his life."
The general believes that his judgment is not wrong, and he must catch these two monsters today, otherwise his position as general will be in jeopardy.
Now hundreds of people are eaten by monsters every day in Hu County. The rich and wealthy families in Hu County are all frightened, because the monster kings seem to like to choose those wealthy families when they eat people, and those
Each large family has a population of at least sixty or seventy, some with more than 100 people, and even larger ones with more than 200 people. Those monsters who choose families like them are probably also interested in the large number of people in their families.
The county magistrate has been putting pressure on him these days. If he can't catch more monsters to solve this problem, not only will his position as a general be in danger, he will even be convicted and imprisoned.
…
The scholar and the little girl came to the street near the house and saw that there were still so many officers and soldiers guarding the place, which made the scholar feel a little funny.
"Brother, why are they still here? Do they really want to catch us?" The little girl really found it funny about the determination of these officers and soldiers. If she didn't know that these officers and soldiers would only bully people like him.
Man, the little girl really thought these officers and soldiers were killing monsters for the common people.
There are so many monsters in Hu County pretending to be ordinary people. If they really wanted to catch them, it would be easy to find some monsters, but they obviously did not dare to do so. It was not possible for them to go crazy when those monsters went crazy.
Even a very weak monster can easily kill a dozen officers and soldiers.
"Let him do whatever he wants, they can't catch us anyway." After saying that, the scholar took the little girl and used the wall-penetrating technique, quickly crossed the street, and came directly to the house.
From the outside, this ancient house looked dark, without any lights, and eerie. But after entering the house, I saw that it was actually brightly lit and full of people.
But these people are not real people, they are all ghosts in this house.
When the scholar and the little girl came to the courtyard, the main door of the house suddenly opened, and a rich middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes walked out with a smile.
The man was accompanied by a dozen maids.
"Hahahaha, welcome to my humble home. Brother, why don't you come inside and have a few drinks."
The ghosts in this house still know the scholar's strength, so they treat the scholar with great respect at this moment, and they don't dare to show any slightness. As for the corpses of the demon kings that were thrown into the house by the scholar, they still treat him with great respect.
Leave it intact in the yard, no ghosts dare to approach it.
The ghosts in this house also know how to survive.
In short, if you don't take anything from this house, then they won't actively provoke you.
If you encounter some very powerful demon kings or ghosts, then the ghosts in this house will treat you very respectfully, and you can even take away whatever you like.
As for just putting a few corpses of monsters here, that's not up to you.
Seeing that the middle-aged man was not hostile to him, and there was no murderous intention in his eyes, the scholar smiled slightly and said: "There is no need to go in and have a few drinks. I am in a hurry today. You should also know that in this city,
These demon kings have created a cannibal feast. If I don’t take action tonight, I don’t know how many innocent people will be eaten by these demon kings. So after I capture all these demon kings, I will have a good time with you.
Have a drink."
Of course the middle-aged man knew the scholar's purpose. The reason why he proposed to have a few drinks with the scholar at this moment was because he wanted to tell the scholar some secrets he knew. This could be regarded as forming a good relationship with the scholar.
"Oh, don't worry, don't worry. I have something to say to brother. Maybe it can be of some help to what brother needs to do next." The middle-aged man was still smiling.
He said this to the scholar. The scholar wanted to refuse again, but when he saw the middle-aged man's firm eyes, the scholar nodded: "Okay, let's have a few drinks."
So the scholar took the little girl and walked towards the nave.
The ghosts in this house have basically never left the yard, and they don't know much about the outside world. They just want to stay in this house and have never thought about leaving here.
But after all, we are in Hu County, so the ghosts in this house are still very clear about what happens within Hu County.
Because they don't know much about things in the outside world, the ghosts here don't think the little girl has anything to be afraid of when they look like a little girl. In their eyes, the little girl is just a mortal. If she hadn't followed the scholar here
, these ghosts are too lazy to pay attention to the little girl, they even threw the little girl out long ago.
For people who enter the house after dark, there are usually two ways to deal with the ghosts in the house.
If a person enters this house by mistake and does not know what is in this house, but is just passing by and wants to stay or take refuge, the ghosts here will usually not embarrass him and will basically send him away.
That’s it.
