I become a god in another world

Chapter 47 Confrontation with Ghosts
Chapter 47

The two reached a consensus.

Liu Yizhen wisely gave in, and Zhao Fusheng also knew the powerful relationship and did not force entry into the temple without breaking the existing balance of evil ghosts. Both parties breathed a sigh of relief.

Under Liu Yizhen's half-defensive and half-vigilant gaze, Zhao Fusheng cautiously took a few steps forward, stood in front of the knee-high threshold of the Confucius Temple, and took a look inside.

I saw that the main hall of the temple was extremely quiet and dark.

In the darkness, there seemed to be a malicious force 'staring' at her, making her tremble with fear and instinctively wanting to retreat.

Zhao Fusheng suppressed the feeling of uneasiness after being spied on, and looked inside with his eyes wide open. After a long time, his eyes adapted to the darkness, and he could barely see the blurry shadows in the darkness.

I saw that there was indeed a wall shrine deep in the hall, a few feet away from the area and located in mid-air.

There is a 'god statue' enshrined in the niche. The 'god statue' sits cross-legged on the altar table, with several strange things wrapped around its body. A strong fishy smell emanates from the hall.

In the darkness, the 'god statue' looked at her with cold eyes.

The face of the fierce ghost loomed in the darkness, and those gray eyes were malicious and malicious, with blood and violence, making her feel the most terrifying murderous intent.

Zhao Fusheng confirmed Li Gui's whereabouts and silently took a few steps back.

It wasn't until he returned to the light of the ghost light that the thrilling feeling of being spied on by evil spirits completely disappeared.

"I'm done."

She endured Ruan Ren's cold feeling and said something.

Liu Yizhen was silent for a long time and asked:
"What are you going to do next?"

"I'm going to do it tonight." She thought for a moment, then responded decisively.

"So fast?"

Although Liu Yizhen had vaguely sensed a little bit of her temper and character from several conversations, he couldn't help but be surprised when he heard her say this.

"This ghost has reached the evil level——"

"It's okay. You can survive the first grade of junior high school, but you can't survive the fifteenth grade. If you survive any longer, it will only increase casualties."

She has basically figured out the killing methods and rules of the evil spirits. Continuing to observe is a waste of time. The more people die, the more powerful the evil spirits will be.

"I don't want to delay it any longer. Either it dies or I die tonight!"

Liu Yizhen listened to what she said. Although he was still not optimistic about her actions, he still nodded noncommittally.

"In this case, I have other things to do, so I wish you good luck in advance."

Zhao Fusheng smiled.

She couldn't find many clues about Liu Yizhen. He might still know some secrets, but judging from his expression, maybe he didn't want to say more.

The ghost trouble in Begging Alley has progressed to this point. Zhao Fusheng has mastered a lot of information, which is enough for her to analyze a lot of things. After that, she will have a confrontation with the ghost.

This was not the first time she had faced off against a fierce ghost.

The revived corpses of the Zhao couple were also suppressed by her, but at that time the Zhao couple had just woken up and were different from the evil spirits enshrined in Beggar Alley.

But now, there is no room for her to retreat.

Zhao Fusheng lost his intention to wander around and immediately retreated to the house where he had previously hidden.

The door of the house next door left traces of the entry and exit of evil ghosts, and the broken door melted open by the ghosts could not block the tragedy in the house.

Blood spilled all over the floor, and the strong smell of blood irritated people's eyes.

Although Zhao Fusheng knew that he would have to deal with ghosts in the future and would face such a scene like Shura Hell again sooner or later, it was definitely not now.

She thought for a moment, then decisively gave up her plan to use this room, and turned her attention to the room next to her.

The houses in Beggaring Hutong are closely built, and the partitions between the walls are not tight.

Most of the lower part is an earthen wall made of bamboo fence, and the upper part is separated by woven bamboo curtains to block simple sight.

Such a wall should not be able to withstand hard impacts.

Li Gui goes out to kill people every day, and "one house" is used as the unit of measurement. If she digs out the barriers between the houses and jumps between the two houses when the Li Gui comes, does it count as escaping from the "one house" rule? ?

It was related to her life and safety. Although such speculation had not been measured and verified, Zhao Fusheng still took action as soon as he said it.

She picked up the pole that was used to hold the door and weighed it in her hand. This thing was useless for holding the door. After all, evil spirits did not follow martial ethics when entering the house.

But it's a good tool if used to smash walls.

After controlling the ghost, Zhao Fusheng was much stronger than the original owner. She made up her mind and stopped delaying, holding a pole and hitting the wall next to her.

'Boom—'

With the heavy blow, a large amount of sand and stones fell to the ground, and the whole house trembled.

"what--"

The screams of terror and despair came from the next room.

Zhao Fusheng did not expect that in addition to his unlucky left neighbor, there was also someone living in the right room next to his room.

She smashed a big hole in the wall several times.

The broken bamboo strips inside were exposed in the flying dust and smoke. She poked her head over and saw a terrified survivor huddled in the corner of the house.

"Sorry."

She grinned:
"I have use for this room. You can find a seat next door."

In the past two nights, she had experienced the fear of ghosts knocking on the door and killing people. She knew very well what this kind of knocking sound meant to the survivors.

But the survivors were more qualified than her. They were greatly relieved after seeing her talking and confirming that she was human.

There was a smell of urine. After a while, the survivor who was half paralyzed by fright gathered strength, silently opened the door and fled quickly.

"..."

Zhao Fusheng continued his work and did not stop until he smashed a large hole in the wall between the two houses for people to pass through.

After that, she set up traps and tried her escape directions countless times, clearing away all the debris and sand that might snag her on her escape route.

After doing all this, she began to recharge her batteries.

Time passed quickly, and when the gong for alms rang again in the evening, she had everything ready.

'Dang, Dang, Dang——'

Liu Yizhen struck the gong, while Zhao Fusheng stayed in the house and did not go to receive today's porridge.

Li Gui kills people according to the life book of the alms, but it is not rigidly based on the top of the daily alms, but randomly selected.

Her name had already been entered into the list. All she had to do was wait for the evil ghost to appear and find a way to intercept its footsteps.

And her battle was related to her life and death.

If she loses, it doesn't matter whether she eats the meal or not; but if she wins, then she has to keep her belly to enjoy the soup that the old woman promised her.

Although he was mentally prepared for a head-on confrontation with Li Gui, as time passed, Zhao Fusheng's heartstrings were still tightened a little bit.

The sound of the gong outside disappeared, and the footsteps of the people receiving alms could be heard, and then they returned to their places.Zhao Fusheng took advantage of this time to inventory the items he had prepared.

Although the previous suppression of the Zhao couple's Li Gui's recovery confirmed what Fan Bisheng said: Human brute force has no effect in front of Li Gui, and only Li Gui's power can deal with Li Gui.

But the price to pay for dealing with ghosts is too high. Zhao Fusheng only has one chance and must be cautious.

Therefore, she still prepared wooden sticks, spikes and other objects, and set up several small traps on the ground to try to stop the ghost's footsteps.

In addition, the human skin lantern has been unfolded and the lamp oil has been placed inside.

She tried the fire fold in advance and was not affected. She could light the fire.

After taking stock of her preparations, she calmly adjusted herself and waited for the time to pass.

On the street, the footsteps of the panicked crowd gradually disappeared.

Instead, there were the sounds of doors closing and knocking one after another. After a while, these sounds became quiet.

After a while, the familiar feeling of depression returned, black fog filled the air, and a chilly feeling instantly enveloped the entire begging alley.

In the extreme silence, Liu Yizhen, who was sitting behind a dark coffin in the Confucius Temple, saw the sound of 'Xisuo' finally coming from the shrine.

On the sacred table that was enshrined, the awakened ghost slowly walked down the table and climbed down to the ground along the table.

With the sound of "ta, tap" footsteps, it walked out of the Confucius Temple and started a new round of hunting.

……

In the dilapidated wooden house, Zhao Fusheng kept listening to the noise outside. When she heard footsteps coming from the direction of Confucius Temple, she knew that the evil ghost was coming.

You can't hide even when you have to hide.

The evil ghost killed two people in a row. She had witnessed with her own eyes that the door could not stop the evil ghost from attacking.

Thinking of this, Zhao Fusheng simply opened the door with a clang.

The sound echoed throughout the long street, causing everyone to breathe heavily at this moment.

In the black fog, ghost figures could be vaguely made out slowly walking out of the fog.

Zhao Fusheng's heartbeat began to accelerate, but she still stared calmly into the distance, watching the ghost appear in front of her.

Still the cold and terrifying figure, the ghost is wandering the streets, searching for the person he plans to kill tonight.

It didn't turn around because Zhao Fusheng opened the door and peeked in. Obviously, ghosts have their own criteria for selecting people to kill people.

Quickly, it selected its target, and just as it was about to turn around and walk away to another part of the street, Zhao Fusheng picked up the human skin lantern and opened the cap of the lamp oil with his fingernails.

This time something strange happened.

The moment the lamp cover was opened, a stench came out of the sealed oil lamp box.

The lamp oil did not need to be lit by fire, and it spontaneously ignited with a "pop" sound.

The light was dimly green, and a painful human face suddenly appeared on the human skin lantern, seeming to be screaming in despair and pain.

This scream suddenly attracted Li Gui's attention.

Li Gui, who was about to turn around, stopped, turned around suddenly, and turned his gray eyes in the direction of Zhao Fusheng. Then he seemed to have changed his mind and strode towards her.

Zhao Fusheng was shocked by this sudden change.

"..."

As the ghost approached, a terrible feeling of suffocation hit my face.

The unexpected automatic lighting of the ghost lantern and the ghost's chain reaction were beyond Zhao Fusheng's expectations, causing her to panic for a moment.

The paper man Zhang lied to her!

She was on guard against the paper man Zhang, but she still didn't expect to fall into a trap on the lamp.

The human skin lantern used to ward off ghosts in the Demon Suppression Department and Zhang Chuanshi's words misled her to some extent.

The ghost lamp this person gave her was not a lamp to ward off ghosts, but a lamp to attract ghosts.

Fortunately, she had expected to fight a ghost tonight and did not place all her hopes on the ghost lantern sent by Paper Man Zhang. If she really believed in Paper Man Zhang's lies, she didn't know how she died in the end.

The ghost came very quickly, Zhao Fusheng cursed in his heart, but he was glad that he had taken revenge in advance and burned down the paper man Zhang's house, otherwise he would have felt even more unlucky at this time.

She blew the light hard, but the green light was quite strange. She blew it several times and it still didn't go out, but the stench became even stronger.

The ghost quickly walked up the steps. The closer it got, the brighter the light in the lantern became.

A black wick in the lamp oil burned very vigorously, and the fire roared, illuminating the house in Beggar Alley, as if guiding the evil ghost in the dark, making it pay attention to Zhao Fusheng's existence for the first time.

This is the purpose of Paper Man Zhang, he wants to use ghosts to kill people!
Zhao Fusheng couldn't blow out the lights, so he simply gave up on blowing them out.

A cold, fishy feeling spread into the house along the open door. Li Gui walked to the door and stared at Zhao Fusheng inside with a pair of gray and greasy eyes.

It did not step in immediately, but stood still at the door. Then it raised its hand and knocked on the door aggressively.

'Duh, duh, duh. '

This ghost's behavior made Zhao Fusheng stunned for a moment.

After observing the ghost for two nights, she naturally knew that the ghost would knock on the door before killing people.

But before that, most of the people killed by it had their doors closed, and she couldn't tell whether the ghost's intention was part of the law of killing or a preparation before breaking into the door.

To this day, when her room door is wide open, the ghost still knocks on the door, which proves that this is one of the rules that ghosts use before killing people.

She hesitated for a moment, then stood behind the house with a pole in hand and shouted:
"Come in."

Although she knew that even if she didn't say this, the ghost would definitely force his way into the house the next moment, but as soon as she finished speaking, she saw that the ghost seemed not to hear her at all, so he still raised his hand and knocked twice. Then, as if the ceremony had been completed, he stepped into the house.

As soon as he entered the house, the ghost's breath instantly caused the temperature in the house to drop sharply.

Li Gui stepped in the air and fell into the trap. Her body fell in half. At the same time, she stepped on a rope ring that Zhao Fusheng had prepared. She threw the lantern in her hand.

The lantern fell to the ground without extinguishing it, and the grimace on the human skin paper was twisted.

She tightened the straw rope and lifted it hard——

Ever since she controlled Li Gui, her physical strength had become much stronger. However, the mention at this time did not shake Li Gui. Instead, she snapped the straw rope that she had worked so hard to pull out.

If the first plan failed, she tried the second plan.

He picked up the pole he had prepared earlier and hit Li Gui on the head with all his strength!
With the sound of "whoosh", the pole passed through the body of the ghost, and the ghost in front of her turned into a black shadow and disappeared. She exerted too much force, and her body was carried sideways by this force.

At this moment, the black shadows reunited and transformed into the ghost's pale body.

Zhao Fusheng was so horrified that he hurriedly turned around and fled to another room.

She had tried this route countless times during the day, and her body had already adapted to it, and she could escape within seconds.

But although she was fast, Li Gui's movements were even faster.

As soon as she moved, she felt the cold and fishy wind blowing, and goosebumps suddenly stood up on her body. The two withered white arms of Li Gui, intertwined with blue and purple, appeared mysteriously and wrapped around her neck.

The cold ghost hands pinched her like plasticine and lifted her body off the ground.
