Ordinary people in the world of Uncle Nine

Chapter 244 Corpse Demon
...

The speed at which Li Mu changed his face caught the man a little off guard, and he stared blankly at him, not knowing what to say.

Patting and looking at their children, Li Mu turned and left with the bamboo shoot bag he bought from the man, while the man kept looking at his back with flickering eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

"Father, what's wrong?"

Seeing his father standing there motionless, Xiao Bao took his hand and asked.

"It's okay! Let's go back!"

"Are you not selling it?"

"Ah."

After speaking, he lifted the basket on the ground to carry it on his back, squatted down, picked up Xiaobao, turned and left, and let the old man behind him shout without looking back.

"What's going on? Go back as soon as you come here!"

The old tobacco leaf seller looked puzzled at the leaving father and son, and finally he could only shake his head and start puffing again with his bong.

After the father and son who left the market arrived home, the man immediately packed his luggage. In fact, there was nothing to clean up in this house. The main thing to pack was the handmade toys made for Xiaobao.

And when they packed their luggage and the man was about to leave with Xiaobao in his hands, suddenly there was a sound of bells outside.

"Jingle bell~"

"Bang!"

I saw that when the bell rang, the luggage that the man was carrying suddenly dropped his hand and fell to the ground.

The man staggered and stretched out his hand to support the door panel, with a painful expression on his face.

"Father, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing his father like this, Xiaobao couldn't help being a little scared.

"Father is fine, Xiaobao, don't be afraid!"

Sensing Xiaobao's emotions, the man forced a smile on his face to comfort him, then the man left Xiaobao at home and told him to go to the village chief if he didn't come back.

"Father, you must come back!"

Looking at the back of his father leaving, Xiaobao vaguely sensed something in his heart, and couldn't help shouting to his father, his voice was trembling at this moment, although Xiaobao is still young, but the child of the poor family has long been in charge of the family, and more What's more, Xiaobao is still a child who suffers from illness and is mentally more mature than ordinary children. From his father's behavior just now, he already has a vague premonition that his father will never come back after leaving.

...

"It's really you!"

When he saw Li Mu, the man was not surprised. From the very beginning, he noticed a different aura from Li Mu, but because Li Mu didn't find out his identity when they met for the first time, he had a fluke mentality. In order not to be suspected by Li Mu, he was even more careful, but he didn't expect to be noticed in the end.

At this time, Li Mu had a solemn expression on his face, an iron sword was slung around his waist, and a Dharma bell was in his hand.

And the reason why he appeared here is because when he was in contact with the man just now, he didn't sense the pulse of a living person from the man.

Although he didn't know what method he used to keep his breath from showing, but after realizing this, Li Mu quickly judged the identity of the man in his heart.

wight!

It is an advanced version of ghoul. After a person dies, the soul is fixed in the corpse and becomes inhuman and non-ghost through secret methods. The activity of the body will be corrupted to varying degrees every day. If you want to maintain the activity, you must The blood of living people must be sucked, and it must not be exposed to direct sunlight, otherwise the corpse will eventually turn into a puddle of pus and blood under the scorching of the sun.

But the corpse demon can walk under the sun openly, or even though the corpse demon has the word corpse, its essence is a demon rather than a ghost, and a demon is not afraid of the sun.

So although the names are similar, the two are essentially different classifications.But whether it is a ghoul or a wight, although they can retain the memory of their life, they are no longer human after all, and they are inhuman.

At this time, the man in front of Li Mu was a corpse, but he didn't know why this corpse could hide his evil spirit so thoroughly that Li Mu almost lost his sight.

For a wight to swagger in a town of living people, it's like a weasel being kept in a chicken coop, and a wolf and a flock of sheep living in the same pen.

But what surprised Li Mu was that the man, as a corpse demon, was able to restrain his demon nature in such a town full of life, and went to the market to sell bamboo shoots every day like ordinary people.

Li Mu didn't know whether the big event that the thin ghost belonged to was related to the man, but a corpse demon was right under his nose, if he didn't care about it, something really happened, and he couldn't pass the test in his heart.

So after he left the street market, he immediately rushed back to his residence and took the guy to the door, just in time to see the scene where the man was about to leave with the child.

How could Li Mu allow the man to leave without confirming how he became a corpse demon and whether he could really restrain his nature? This is how he shook the bell to stimulate the man to come.

And Li Mu naturally saw in the dark that even if the man was stimulated by Fa Ling, he could still maintain his rationality and settle down his child, and then came alone. These performances were very different from the corpse monster Li Mu knew.

"A corpse demon is so restrained, I have to say, I admire you very much!"

The man stared at Li Mu intently to prevent him from attacking suddenly, but he did not expect that Li Mu did not attack him.

"What do you mean?"

Li Mu's operation completely made the man unable to deal with it, and he was ready to see death as home, but at this time you said you admire me?

"Don't get me wrong, I have no hostility towards you, at least not yet!"

Li Mu put Fa Ling back in his arms, and spread his hands to show that he was not hostile to him, at least until he didn't realize that the corpse monster in front of him had harmful intentions.

It's like a person suspects that another person may kill someone and kills him first. What kind of behavior is this?
As a normal person, Li Mu thought he couldn't do such a thing.

Since he practiced, as long as he doesn't harm others, he won't meddle in other people's business. Even when the female ghost Xiaohong took revenge back then, he didn't stop it, because it was karma, and Ma owed it to her, but Later, after she tasted the sweetness, she attacked Ah Xing and the others irresistibly, which was the reason why Li Mu shot her soul apart.

So even if there is a thin ghost's warning, before the corpse demon is not contaminated with human life karma, he will not kill the corpse demon just because of the skinny ghost's words.

"Long story short, what's going on with your current state?"

Li Mu looked at the corpse and asked, this was something he was always curious about, even now, Li Mu still didn't feel a trace of evil spirit from the corpse in front of him.

When the corpse demon heard Li Mu's question, his face was a little dazed, and then he seemed to recall some terrible memory, and the horror in his eyes could be felt by Li Mu standing in front of him.

　The plot is a bit outrageous, but it is already the limit I can think of
