I have a book of ghosts and gods

Chapter 458 Lantern Flower (Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass)

"Gahhhh..."

A burst of strange laughter sounded out of thin air.

It sounded like a night owl was chirping, with a piercing feeling like an iron knife rubbing against a stone slab.

The woman who just lay down seemed to have been stabbed, and sat up suddenly, her face pale and panicked.

Niu Dashan's face was also pale, but he forced himself to suppress it, stood up and stood in front of the woman.

He looked at the mud wall with flickering lamps and shadows in horror.

A shadow stretched from under the light to the wall, stretching long and thin.

With this burst of strange laughter, the shadow got longer and longer.

Eventually it fell off the wall.

Then it gets shorter and shorter.

Gradually retracted into the lights.

Then with a slight tug, he actually got away from the light.

A crooked black shadow slowly walked out from the flames.

In the meager light, an old face gradually appeared.

Patterned like old bark.

With a white head and a rickety back, he leans on a stick.

A lantern is hung on the head of the stick.

Niu Dashan swallowed a few times, and said in a shy voice: "Old man, you, why are you here again?"

"Hey hey..."

The strange old woman laughed strangely and said: "Your wife is seriously ill, and I am the only old woman who can take care of it. I had good words beforehand. When the illness occurred, light a lamp and pray, and the old man will come out and save your wife. Why don't you do the same? "

Although Niu Dashan is a villager and farmer, he is brave and stubborn.

He knew that the old woman was most likely not human, so he didn't believe her words at all.

Taking a step back, even if what the old woman said was true, he didn't want to ask a demon.

Niu Dashan restrained his fear, and said: "Old man, this woman and I both have low lives, and we will die when we die. I really don't dare to bother the old man."

"It's rare."

The old woman giggled again when she heard the words.

This is the second time she has come, and the second time she has been rejected.

But she wasn't angry at all.

"Quack, you villager is still a brave man, it's a pity..."

"If you come from a better background, you may not be able to achieve great things."

"Even if you met the old man ten years earlier, the old man can give you a fortune,"

"Although you are courageous now, you have been exhausted by this poverty."

Niu Dashan said cautiously: "Don't worry about the old man, I'm just a villager, my family is poor and my life is low, I don't dare to extravagantly ask for any big things, as long as I have something to eat."

As he said that, he hurriedly said: "Old man, if you want to find that great immortal, but you are late, the nobles who came today have invited that great fairy away."

"is it?"

There was no joy or anger on the old woman's old face, she just glanced at the bowl on the table.

The black soup that the woman had just finished drinking was still left at the bottom.

There are still a little worms wriggling in it.

"So it was her three corpses and nine worms..."

The old woman didn't seem to be talking to Niu Dashan, but she was muttering to herself: "Based on her way of life, the corpse has been sealed for nearly ten thousand years. Achieving the body of an immortal..."

"Looking at the appearance of this corpse insect, it is indeed so..."

"It's just a pity..."

"Quack quack..."

The old woman laughed strangely again: "Nine hills and nine feet, and the effort falls short, it should be the old man's good luck..."

The old woman raised her head amidst a strange laugh, and looked at the terrified Niu Dashan: "That man, although this corpse insect has miraculous effects, your mother-in-law has exhausted her vital energy and blood. To put it bluntly, it is her vitality." At the end of her life, no matter how miraculous it is, it will be difficult to save her."

"If you don't want to watch her die from being strangled, you can light a lamp and pray to me, and maybe you can save her life..."

As he spoke, his feet turned into black shadows, which gradually elongated and connected with the lights.

The whole person slowly changed into a shadow, retracting into the lights.

After a while, we will never see each other again.

"call!"

Niu Dashan exhaled heavily, and sat down on the straw couch.

Already sweating profusely.

His mother-in-law was terrified, and when she relaxed at this moment, she fell asleep directly.

……

on the official road.

Jiang Zhou and Qu Qingluo were flying in the air at high speed.

King Guangling threw off his legs and chased wildly on the ground.

Although a little embarrassed, he didn't fall behind.

While running, he yelled: "Hey! I said what are you running! Wait for me! I can't run anymore!"

"You expected it to be right, but you didn't expect it to be Granny Denghua."

Jiang Zhou and Qu Qingluo ignored his shout.

They didn't leave just now.

Instead, he saw that Niu Dashan seemed to have something hidden, so he wanted to stay and explore.

But unexpectedly, a mother-in-law Denghua came out.

On the day Jiang Zhou was intercepted by Monk Baoyue, he once had a face-to-face with this Denghua mother-in-law.

So when I saw the old woman walking out of the lights, I recognized it.

He didn't dare to look any more, he directly pulled Qu Qingluo up and ran away.

King Guangling was at a loss, he didn't watch the excitement that he wanted to watch, and instead ran all the way.

My lungs are almost gasping out.

Jiang Zhou knew that although he and the others hid far away and ran extremely fast, the Denghua mother-in-law must have noticed it long ago.

That is a first-class product.

Being spied on, how could he not notice?

With the ability of the first-rank holy, Jiang Zhou didn't think that he could escape if he waited for others to run fast.

So they ran on this official road.

First of all, there are people coming and going on the official road, and there may be some important people passing by.

Secondly, intercepting and killing pedestrians on the official road is a serious crime according to the law of Daji.

However, no matter which one it is, it is an extremely small probability, but it is just a last resort.

Granny Denghua, as a first-class sage, is unlikely to be afraid of Daji's law.

Instead of counting on these, Jiang Zhou might as well hope that the old woman will be afraid of the status of the Nine Heavens Xuanmu Sect and Guangling King, and will not hurt Qu Qingluo and Guangling King.

As for himself, it's easy to handle.

He left the city this time, but it was just a dream body.

This is to prevent Granny Denghua from appearing.

I didn't expect to come across it.

"Quack quack..."

The three of them were running desperately when they suddenly heard a strange laugh.

Jiang Zhou, Qu Qingluo, and King Guangling all noticed that the surrounding light suddenly became distorted.

In Jiang Zhou's eyes, the surrounding scene is like a kaleidoscope, overlapping, yet twisted and spiraled.

The three of them seem to be stuck in an extremely weird place.

No matter how they ran, they were still in place, unable to move forward an inch at all.

Qu Qing Luo Yunshou flicked lightly, the top of the head, under the feet, and around, one by one brilliant roulettes manifested.

Dao Dao Yao hexagrams rotated and changed, and the void swayed for a while, and the three of them seemed to be swallowed up at once, falling into the void and disappearing.

The next moment, it emerged from the void again.

It was still a weird scene around.

Jiang Zhou and Qu Qingluo simply stopped.

"Hey! What's the matter?"

King Guangling finally caught up with the two of them, and shouted with surprise on his face.

Before Jiang Zhou could speak, he suddenly saw a little flame lighting up in front of him.

It turned out to be a crutch, with a lantern hanging on it, unmanned, floating slowly from the air.

Just like what he saw at Niu Dashan's house, a figure slowly appeared from the lamp.

Turned into a three-foot-tall old woman...
