Projecting the heavens from One Piece World

Chapter 133
The moon hung high in the sky, and the town was completely silent, not even a single candle.

In a house near the edge of the town, the darkness was suppressed to the corner, and only a fleeting rustling could be heard, but listening carefully, it seemed to be an illusion again.

This house is an abandoned one in the small town, and only wandering beggars would live in it on weekdays, but after the famine, such people became less and less, and even insects and rats did not patronize it.

A five or six-year-old girl in the room was shivering in the corner of the wall where the sundries were piled up. Her clothes were soaked in cold sweat. She tightly covered her mouth to keep herself from making a sound.

Mikiko is one of the few girls in the town. She watched her familiar friends disappear. Although the adults didn't tell them clearly, the legend of ghosts and ghosts still spread among the children.

In this case, the only thing Mikiko can do is to "hide and seek", hide as much as possible, so that ghosts can't find her. This is what she is best at on weekdays, but now it is too cruel. decided his life and death.

It has been more than a month since playing "Hide and Seek", and the ghost has lost patience and is approaching the prey in the trap little by little.

Mikiko's parents have both died long ago, and she usually relies on the kind-hearted people in the small town to give her a living. After she disappeared, she didn't even notice a single one, so she could only rely on sneaking into other people's kitchens to eat some Leftovers, or bark wild vegetables to fill the stomach.

I don't know how long passed in the darkness, only the sudden sound of tick-tock water droplets, and the whistling sound of the strong wind blowing through the alley.

The surroundings were terribly quiet, and she could even hear her own breathing clearly. She didn't dare to make any movements, for fear of making even the slightest movement.

It turned out that Mikiko was avoiding ghosts with several friends who were also orphans, but as the days passed, she was the only one who survived to the end.

Thinking of this, her eye sockets became moist, and she wiped away her tears unwillingly.

suddenly.

"Tread...tread..."

The sound of heavy footsteps sounded from a distance, and became more and more clear from far to near.

Mikiko's stained face turned pale, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble.

As the footsteps approached, the sound of barking dogs also sounded around. Listen carefully, the barking of dogs was mixed with miserable screams, but it was like an illusion caused by the sound of the wind.

The footsteps stopped at the door of this room, and Mikiko's body froze in place. For her, this second passed like a long day, and the sound of violent heart beating came and went.

After a long time, there was no movement, and Mikiko's original fear gradually regained her composure. She opened her eyes, and because of the dilapidated house, the moonlight shone in through the gap, and also gave the few people inside bright.

She looked towards the door, the wooden door was in disrepair for a long time and was dilapidated, Mikiko could see outside through the crack of the door.

In an instant, her whole body tensed up, because in the darkness, a wild dog standing on all fours could be seen motionless in front of the door.

"It's absolutely impossible to be a wild dog..." Mikiko's face became even more frightened, her body shook uncontrollably, sweat flowed more and more, and then her body fell into a state of lack of water and oxygen.

After waiting for a while, the wild dog seemed to have lost the last bit of patience, and poked its head in through the crack of the door.

Through the night, Mikiko finally saw its appearance clearly.

It was a seemingly ordinary khaki dog, with a thin body and a fair coat color, but its fur seemed to be torn apart, missing a piece, revealing the pink flesh underneath.

But in fact, these are not places that scare Mikiko.

The most important thing is that the face of this earth dog looks like a person, like the desperate expression of a middle-aged woman.

Mikiko recognized at a glance that it was Haruko Kumota's reclusive mother. Although she was seriously ill, she was kind-hearted and often gave away excess food to others.

"Wang...wang...wang..."

The dog ghost let out an indistinct bark, stretched out its tongue, licked its paw lightly, and then rubbed its face with its paw.

"Don't come close, don't come close, don't come close..." Mikiko prayed desperately in her heart, but it didn't seem to work at all. The dog ghost opened the wooden door with his head, and stepped in.

The dog ghost came to her bed, scratched the ground with its paws, dug a hole, and then retched into it.

Soon, some sour-smelling mucus was spit out from the throat, and some people's eyes or fingers were mixed in it.

"This is too difficult to digest, is this my limit?"

The dog ghost said to himself, its voice was that of an ordinary middle-aged woman, but it was extremely hoarse and deep.

"Impossible, impossible, I want to become the last quarter moon, I want to keep eating, keep eating, keep eating..."

Its voice was full of obsession, and then it also looked at the pile of debris, and walked towards the little girl hidden in it with small steps.

At this moment, the dog ghost's footsteps suddenly stopped. After it raised its head, it faced a face on the roof.

"Hey, I want to ask, what is Xia Xuanyue?"

Roach's plain voice sounded like a thunderbolt suddenly appearing in the silent night sky.

"Ghost Killing Team, the guy from the Ghost Killing Team, kill him, you must kill him."

Since Gougui was born, he has never seen a ghost-slaying swordsman like Luo Qi, but the words "ghost-slaying team" popped out of his mind as if engraved deep in his memory.

It seems that the existence that transformed it into a ghost was doing this deliberately. Once seeing Roach's outfit and the ordinary-looking sun wheel knife, the only thing left in the ghost's mind was the urge to kill him.

"You haven't answered me yet." Roach said again, then shook his head helplessly.

"Forget it, I'd better go back to the headquarters of the Ghost Killing Squad to ask others, and find a more open place to deal with you."

After finishing speaking, his head shrank back from the gap, and then turned over lightly, and came to the outside of the house.

"Look here, dog."

The dog ghost stared at Luo Qi, and then rushed towards him with his hind legs. The speed was not fast, but the force was great, smashing a waist-thick tree trunk.

Luo Qi ran extremely fast, heading towards the direction outside the town, and looked behind him from time to time, lest the ghost would not follow.
