#122 - Chasing the old man for two miles
“I’m going to catch you!”
“Almost! Almost!”
“My stomach is so hungry! So hungry! Let me eat you!”
Lin Jue roared, increasing his speed. In a few steps, he arrived behind the old man. The dagger in his hand tore through the air as he brought it down.
“Damn it, how come even after becoming a ghost, I'm still being chased by a fierce ghost! Can't I just quietly be a shop owner? I just want to sell all my goods and enjoy my ghostly life!”
The old man let out a terrified scream, black blood flowing from his eyes. His speed suddenly increased a lot, and he darted away in a flash.
This strike missed, of course, because Lin Jue deliberately aimed wrong. If he really wanted to attack the old man, he could have just grabbed the other party's neck, pulled him back, and stabbed him a hundred times.
“This old man looks quite old, but he's agile. He's definitely a good helper who can win battles.”
Lin Jue sped up again, the bronze dagger narrowly brushing past the old man's body each time.
This scared the old man so much that blood was flowing from all seven orifices. He wished he had two more legs and didn't dare to look back, so he didn't notice that the footsteps behind him had disappeared.
After钻进into a dark alley, before the old man could even breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a figure in white standing not far ahead, like a ghost, appearing there silently.
I’m done for!
How come there's another ghost!
The old man was about to break down. Was heaven trying to kill ghosts?
The figure approached step by step, and the old man's legs were shaking. He huddled against the wall, trying to hide in the darkness.
The figure stopped in front of the old man, pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, and looked puzzled: “Eh, isn’t this the shopkeeper? What are you doing here?”
Hearing this tone, which was completely different from that of a ghost, the old man dared to slowly raise his head, revealing one eye from the crook of his arm. By the pale moonlight, he finally saw the figure clearly.
Wearing a crisp white coat, gold-rimmed glasses, and a face that exuded a refined and gentle temperament.
The old man recognized him. It was the living person who came to buy a lot of snacks that day!
“Run! Run! There's a fierce ghost behind us!”
He hurriedly got up, grabbed Lin Jue, and tried to escape.
“Fierce ghost?” Lin Jue was taken aback, then smiled: “Old man, I specifically moved into this street to kill fierce ghosts. I'm not afraid of any fierce ghosts.”
Moved into this street to kill fierce ghosts?
The old man didn't expect the living person in front of him to say such a thing. Before he could react, he saw Lin Jue walk out of the alley, his reassuring voice carried over by the wind.
“Old man, with me here, rest assured! I will definitely not let the fierce ghost hurt you. I will go out and kill him right away. You just wait here for my good news.”
The figure quickly disappeared around the corner. Immediately afterward, the sound of metal clashing came from outside the alley. The living person seemed to be fighting with that ghost, and the battle sounded very intense. From time to time, twisted laughter could be heard.
“Living person!”
“The scent on your body is too delicious. I want to eat your flesh bit by bit, crushing every bone in your body!”
These sounds made the old man shudder. He could imagine the scene outside, which must be very bloody. Weapons were drawn, and both sides must be fighting to the death.
“Who exactly is this living person? He actually dares to face such a terrifying fierce ghost. That ghost alone makes my legs weak with its aura.”
The old man hid in the corner, trembling. The sounds of fighting outside made him panic. He wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but he felt uneasy. After all, the living person had run out to fight the fierce ghost alone to protect him.
“Should I go out and help? He's fighting the fierce ghost alone to help me, but I'm hiding here…”
“No, no, that ghost is too scary. I still have so many goods that haven't been sold yet.”
“But there are two of us. Two against one might be an opportunity! If that ghost doesn't die, I won't be able to open my shop.”
The old man's eyes were conflicted. In the end, he overcame his fear. He gritted his teeth and stood up, ready to rush out of the alley.
But soon, a shrill scream rang out from outside.
“It's the voice of that living person! Could he have been eaten by the fierce ghost!?”
This scream made the old man's leg, which was about to step out, freeze instantly. He almost fell to the ground. The courage he had mustered disappeared in an instant.
Thinking of the scene of the fierce ghost eating people, his scalp went numb. He wanted to turn around and run, but he found that his legs seemed to be filled with lead, making it difficult to move.
Today was really too exciting. An old man like him couldn't handle it at all. Every nerve was tingling.
The next moment, the living person who he thought had died rushed in from the alley, looking flustered. The white coat on his body was no longer neat and tidy, but wrinkled and covered in dust.
“Old man, I'm no match for him. Quick, I'll take you away.” As he spoke, he took out a raincoat from somewhere: “Quick, get in! I'm very fast! I can easily shake that guy off!”
Looking at the raincoat, the old man sensed something was wrong, but the living person suddenly let out a scream, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying chasing after him.
The refined face twisted together, his eyes filled with horror: “Old man, it's too late! Hurry! That guy is catching up!”
The latest and most complete novels are available on 6_9_Shu_Ba.
These words instantly made the old man lose his ability to think. Without any hesitation, he got directly into the raincoat.
On the raincoat, the old man's ghostly face slowly emerged. He looked at the person still standing in place, his face full of doubt, urging: “Aren't you going to run! What are you still standing here for!”
What he didn't expect was that the panicked and horrified expression on the face of the person in front of him completely disappeared, replaced by a smug smile: “Old man, do you have a dream?”
These familiar words made the old man stunned instantly. Everything that had just happened flashed through his mind again.
He knew what was wrong!
When this person went out just now, there was only the sound of that ghost outside. But when this person ran back, the sound of the ghost disappeared again. The person and the ghost had never appeared at the same time!
Moreover, he just said that the ghost was chasing after him, but the figure of the ghost had not been seen until now.
The old man's pupils trembled, and he finally realized that he seemed to have been tricked: “That ghost, is it you?”
Lin Jue smiled and admitted frankly: “There's no way around it. In order for you to do me a small favor, I can only do this.”
“You beep beep beep——!!!”
The old man cursed loudly in the raincoat, no longer having the kind and benevolent image he had in the store before.
Lin Jue listened quietly. After a few minutes, the old man finally finished cursing: “You acted out this one-man show just to get me into this raincoat?”
“Mainly because I'm too kind. If it were someone else, they would definitely beat you up and then force you in.” Lin Jue sighed, looking very understanding: “I'm different. Considering that you're old and can't take a beating, I chose to use this gentle method…”
“Gentle, my ass! Did you consider that I'm old and wouldn't be able to take a beating, but did you consider whether my heart could take it?”
“Your mother's kiss, did you consider that I'm old and don't have the stamina! You forced me to run almost two miles!”
The old man cursed again. This was worse than being beaten! That kind of psychological torment was even more unacceptable to a ghost than physical pain.
