The years of reselling the haunted house

I wondered, who could this be?Is it the ghost cook who didn't leave the island?Or someone else?

This island is not as peaceful as it looks on the surface.

I thought about it, and decided to ignore these things for now, I will not offend others if they don't offend me, and I will respond to all changes with the same, as long as I raise my vigilance.If everything is normal, after Li Laohai repairs the boat, we can leave here to find Qisha Island, and what happens here has nothing to do with us.

We had been away for a while, and we were afraid that something might happen to Shi Xuan'er who stayed in the camp, so we rushed back as fast as possible.

Fortunately, both the tent and Shi Xuan'er were there, and she was still soundly asleep.But Li Laohai, who was in charge of vigilance, did not, as he promised, was already lying on his broken boat and snoring again.It seems that this old man is still unreliable when it comes to critical times.

It's just that the fire we lit has gone out.

I’m also a bit scared about this, Ju Chengan and I both left here, but left the security issue to the unreliable Li Laohai. If something happens during this period, even if we get the inner alchemy, we will regret it beyond reach.

"This Li Laohai is just a trash snack." Ju Chengan said angrily.

I smiled wryly and said, "He is the boatman we hired. Don't expect him to do anything. It's lucky that he can fix the boat as soon as possible."

After returning, I sent Ju Chengan to sleep, and I stayed on duty overnight.

I feel that the aura on this island is also good, suitable for practicing Qi.

Ju Chengan got into the tent, and soon there was a slight snoring sound.

I practiced Qi quietly, and the surroundings fell into silence.

With my eyes closed, I try to integrate myself with the whole nature, and connect myself with all things in nature through Qi.

In such a state, even the sound of a needle falling to the ground can be captured by me.

At the end of my little week, my keen senses suddenly felt that something was coming through the wind, and the target was myself.

I opened my eyes suddenly, and sure enough, I accurately captured a pebble-sized thing flying towards me in the night.

Intuitive reaction, although the speed of that thing is not slow, it is not heavy.

I stretched out my palm and grabbed the thing that flew close to me.

It turned out to be a crumpled paper ball.

I looked in the direction of the flying paper ball, but I didn't find anyone.

Chapter 2053 Scarlet fire pill, can it be refined

I was very puzzled, and quickly unfolded the paper ball in my hand.

By the moonlight, I saw a few words written crookedly on it: I want to go to Qisha Island, see you at the Dragon King Temple.

I was shocked, someone asked me to meet at the Dragon King Temple.Could it be that blurry shadow I saw?Moreover, this person was afraid that I would not attend the appointment, so he specifically mentioned Seven Kill Island.

So, I have to go and see it anyway.Because here, I have no other choice.

I know very well that even if Li Laohai fixes the boat, we don't know how to find Qisha Island.Because the waterway map that Shi Xuan'er got has been used up.It does not continue to indicate how to enter the Seven Killing Island, and the rest is up to us.

If the person who asked me to go to the Dragon King Temple knows how to get to Qisha Island, I can make a fuss from him.

I took the note and decided to take this trip.

I have been to the Dragon King Temple once, and this time I am even more familiar with the road.

Coupled with light footsteps and brisk feet, I soon arrived at the dilapidated Dragon King Temple.

Before I got close, I saw a figure standing in front of the Dragon King Temple, as if someone was waiting for me.

Hearing my voice, he also turned around slowly, and I came close to meet him.

"It's you? The ball of paper you threw?" I recognized it at a glance, it was the ghost cook I had fought with.His hair was still hanging down, covering his entire face.

"It's me." Ghost Cook said in a deep voice.

"who are you?"

"Haven't you already guessed my identity? I'm a ghost cook."

"You really are a ghost cook." It seems that Ju Chengan's guess is not wrong.To my surprise, our conversations and actions turned out to be under the control of others.

From this point of view, he should also know that I took the inner alchemy by the side of the earthen wall.

I took a step back, fully on my guard.After all, the ghost cook's intentions are unknown, and in that abandoned village, he still controls so many dead souls.

"Don't worry, I don't mean any harm." Ghost Cook said again.His long hair was like a tight black veil, preventing me from seeing the expression on his face.

"Then what are you looking for me for? Do you really know where the Seven Killing Island is?" I asked.

"Are you a pharmacist?" Ghost Cook didn't answer my question, but asked back.

I tried the medicine cauldron and the alchemy furnace on the other side of the earth wall, and he saw it, that's why he asked this question.People in the Taoist sect, only pharmacists can use the medicine cauldron and pill furnace.

I didn't hide it and nodded.

The ghost chef seemed a little surprised, took a step forward, and asked again: "Da Luo Jiuzhuan Red Fire Pill, can you make it?"

I shook my head: "That is top-level elixir, non-top pharmacists can't make it. I'm still a high-level pharmacist, Chihuo Dan, I can't make it."

The ghost cook was a little disappointed, and his voice lowered: "You can't make it. Scarlet Fire Pill, is it so hard to find?"

I know that Jiuzhuan Scarlet Fire Pill is a top-notch medicine for healing.It is said that it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life. In this sense, returning the dead to life is not just talking, it can really bring the dead back to life.When a person dies, as long as the soul has not been reincarnated, it is said that no matter how many injuries or diseases they have suffered, they can be rescued.

I couldn't help asking: "You want the Scarlet Fire Pill, but you want to heal your wounds?"

After asking, I regretted asking more.

Since the ghost chef knew the name of Da Luo Jiuzhuan Scarlet Fire Pill, he naturally knew what the Red Fire Pill was for.Scarlet Fire Pill is a good medicine that can bring the dead back to life. If it is just an ordinary injury, it is really a waste of money.

The ghost chef himself can walk and run, and there is no sign of injury, let alone a terminally ill, serious injury. He inquired about the red fire pill, and it must not be used by himself.

Sure enough, when I asked, Ghost Cook shook his head: "Of course I didn't use it. But it's useless to talk about it now. You can't make the Red Fire Pill. It's useless to talk about it. She must be hopeless."

As he spoke, Ghost Chef's voice suddenly choked up, but it could be heard that he was trying to control it.To show such emotions in front of an outsider like me, or even a former enemy, it is obvious that he is extremely sad, and it is a transition process from a glimmer of hope to despair.

Although this ghost cook looks weird, and what he has done is difficult for people to understand, but his emotions moved me a little bit.Obviously, those who are injured or seriously ill and who urgently need the Scarlet Fire Pill are his closest relatives.

From this, I thought that when Liang Yue was poisoned, I was so anxious to find Qinghucao for her. I was very excited when I had hope, and I was so sad when my hope was shattered.

Maybe because I had the same experience, I said something out of nowhere: "Senior pharmacist, it's not like there is no chance to upgrade to a top pharmacist."

"What?" Sure enough, my words made the ghost chef excited again. He lowered his head, but suddenly raised his head and looked at me: "You said you have the opportunity to upgrade to the top alchemist? Nine-turn Scarlet Fire Pill?"

"Ah... I just said it's possible. Every high-level pharmacist has the possibility to rise to the top level." I hurriedly rounded up my words again. I wanted to attack the top-level pharmacists. Sun Yulou asked me to keep a low profile as much as possible. Make a statement, otherwise it will easily lead to disaster.

"Sir, what happened before was that I was offended because I didn't know Taishan with my eyes. If you can refine the red fire pill, I would pay any price to ask you for a magic pill. I will keep my mouth shut about the matter of the top alchemist." , if you can't trust me, after saving someone, I, Ghost Cook, will die to keep this secret for you."

As the ghost cook said, he bowed respectfully to me.

Apparently, the ghost chef also knew that I didn't want to let the top pharmacist leak out, so he actually proposed that he could keep this secret with his death.Who is it that makes him so persistent and so reckless?

"Senior, I can understand your feelings, but I'm really just a senior pharmacist now, and I'm still far from the top. I really can't help you right now."

The ghost cook shook his head: "It's okay, there is still time, there is still time, you tell me, what is the difference between you and a top alchemist, I will help you."

"Senior, I actually want to know more, who is it that makes you do this for him?"

The ghost chef thought for a while, and pointed to the Dragon King Temple behind him: "If you don't mind, please come and sit inside?"

I nodded, I still want to know how to go to Qisha Island from Ghost Chef, so naturally I will not refuse his invitation.

I followed the ghost cook and walked into the Dragon King Temple.

Chapter 2054 One person with two sides

The Dragon King Temple looks very dilapidated from the outside, but when you walk in, you find that it has been tidied up by the ghost cook.In the middle stands the statue of the Dragon Lord, sitting high on the altar, and there is even a stick of incense burning in front of the altar.

The incense smell is so light that I didn't smell it at all outside, and I always thought that there was no incense in the Dragon King Temple.

Next to the statue, there is a simple bed made of stones and covered with planks, which is obviously the place where the ghost cook rests.

The ghost chef pointed to a stone slab in front of the statue, and said, "This is the condition, sir, please feel wronged, can we just sit here?"

The stone slab should be used to place offerings, but it is now empty.Below are two futons.

Of course, I didn't pay too much attention, so I sat on a futon in front of the ghost chef.

The ghost cook ran to the bed, took out some things from a stone box, and put them on the stone slab.

As soon as the thing was taken out, I smelled a fragrance, which was also very attractive.

I saw that it was a few pieces of ready-made dim sum.

"I don't have anything good to entertain you here. I made this for myself. If you don't mind, you can try it." The ghost chef also sat down and said.

"Okay..." I couldn't wait any longer, just as I reached out to take it, I stopped suddenly.

Lesson learned, how did I forget what happened just now?

Who knows if these snacks are those rotten fish and rotten shrimps?

Seeing my hesitation, the ghost chef smiled bitterly: "Sir, don't worry. These are not ghost meals, they are for people to eat. It's about this time, and I can't harm anyone if I harm you."

As he said that, Ghost Cook picked up a piece of snack by himself, put it in his mouth and took a small bite.

In fact, to be on the safe side, I don't have to eat this food, but in such a situation, if I don't eat it, I will be underestimated by the ghost cook.

In a fit of anger, I grabbed a piece of snack and stuffed it into my mouth.

This action of mine surprised Ghost Cook. He flipped the long hair in front of his face to both sides, and looked at me seriously.

I chewed the snack a few times, only to find that the snack was fragrant, soft and glutinous, and it almost melted in the mouth, and the fragrance was overflowing in my mouth.

Before I could swallow the snack, I couldn't wait to give a thumbs up.

The ghost cook shook his head, and said helplessly: "Mister eats my dim sum, it is comparable to a cow..."

Before the ghost cook finished speaking, he stopped abruptly. He couldn't continue talking. He thought it wouldn't be a good thing, and he was afraid that I would argue.

I swallowed the snack and said with a smile: "I'll say it for seniors, seniors want to say that I eat your snacks like a cow chewing peonies, don't you?"

Ghost Cook smiled awkwardly, nodded, got up and lit a candle on the incense table.

As soon as the candlelight came on, the ghost chef put his hair on his head again, and I saw the ghost chef's face more carefully.

He tied his long hair into a bun on the top of his head, with hairpins inserted, like a Taoist priest.

On the street where the accident happened, I once saw the ghost cook's face.That face was covered with scars, and there were many ugly bumps. To say he was ugly was to beautify him.So I can also understand that he often shows people with long hair covering his face. Whoever has such a face must not let outsiders see it.

Who would have thought that here today, I saw his face again, but it was completely different.I even thought I recognized the wrong person, or that the person standing in front of me was not the person I had fought with on the street at all.

The ghost chef in front of me has a face as white as jade, without any wrinkles or scars, and has regular features and sharp edges and corners.Because the complexion is very pale, it gives people a sense of femininity, but there is a masculine beauty in the femininity.

Such a face, not only is it not ugly, it is already worthy of the title of handsome man.

But I don't know why, such a handsome face, Ghost Cook has been covering it with long hair for a long time.If he hadn't entered the Dragon King Temple, he might not have tied his hair up.So which of his two faces is his real face?

Seeing me staring blankly at his face, Ghost Cook asked in surprise, "Sir, what's the problem?"

At this time, the ghost cook didn't give people the feeling of being eerie and weird. On the contrary, listening to him, he was like a brother next door.How can I not dare to compare him with the one who sold those rotten fish and rotten shrimps in the shop.

Hearing his question, I murmured, "So you look so good-looking."

The ghost chef smiled wryly: "Even if you look like Panan, it's just a skin. If I can choose, I'd rather choose a stinky skin."

The ghost chef obviously expressed his feelings, and he didn't know what setbacks and ups and downs he had encountered in his experience.

"That face I saw before..."

"It's all my face. It's just that my current face will turn into that ghostly look at night, and it will return to normal during the day. It's almost dawn now, and my face is also recovering."

It turned out to be like this, so to speak, wouldn't that ghost cook's face be more handsome when the sky was completely bright?It is almost miraculous that one person has two faces.

It seems that the ghost chef must have experienced something before he can change his face between day and night.I believe that these mysteries can be slowly revealed after talking with the ghost chef.

"Senior, your dim sum is really good, it is the best dim sum I have ever eaten." I admired sincerely.This is not an exaggeration.

The ghost cook nodded: "That's all I can do. Since you like to eat, eat more."

I shook my head: "You haven't told me yet, who do you want to use the Nine-Turn Scarlet Fire Pill for?"

The ghost cook sighed and said, "It's my wife."

In fact, I have already thought about it. According to the legend, both the parents of the ghost cook died in prison, so if you ask what love is in the world, maybe at this time, only the love between men and women is the most sincere and hard to let go.

"Then your wife was hurt, or?"

"Come with me." The ghost cook stood up and walked directly behind the statue of the Dragon Lord.

I also followed, but there was still a small space behind the statue.There was a bed there, and there was a person lying on the bed, covered with a quilt, with his face exposed, motionless.Around the bed, there were seven candles. The flames of the candles were so weak that they could barely be extinguished.
