Boss, do you have a guess?

After hearing this answer, Qu Mo fell silent uncontrollably.In fact, to be honest, even if Bai Wangchuan hadn't said this to him, he would have guessed it more or less.

Because I have heard this kind of situation in the story, just like big fish eating small fish, and small fish eating dried shrimps, in the world of ghosts, the strong should also regard the weak as food.This is like the law of nature, and there seems to be nothing to say.

Bai Wangchuan pointed to the stairs leading to the basement, and asked, "Am I going down alone, or are you going down with me?"

"Of course we are together."

Qu Mo said, and walked down the stairs with him.

He originally thought that since there was no shadow of the so-called ghost king upstairs, the basement should be the only destination for him.

But what he didn't expect was that the two of them walked around the basement, and then went to the garage, and came to the conclusion that it was clean here, even better than what they felt on the roof just now. A little bit cleaner.

"This is really a bit strange." Bai Wangchuan stroked his smooth chin, his eyebrows almost knit into a ball.

Qu Mo's expression was not much better than his, and he frowned and stayed silent for a while with him, then he said: "Do you think it is possible that we went in the wrong direction from the beginning?"

Bai Wangchuan said, "You mean the dirty things were never in the building from the very beginning?"

Qu Mo nodded.

After all, the painting of this venue is really too big, and the ground floor only occupies a small part.It's just that the building hasn't come out yet, and most of the remaining things to be planned and built haven't started yet.

"Then we have to take a look," Bai Wangchuan said, frowning in embarrassment, "but the space outside is a bit too big, it's impossible to turn around."

"This..."

Qu Mo was also a little embarrassed.

He just stroked his chin and was silent for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with a smile: "I have thought of a way, but you may disagree."

"Say it out and listen." Bai Wangchuan signaled.

Qu Mo scratched his head, "Because to this ghost, I should be just a simple ordinary person. So you go away in a while, and then I will stay here by myself. Maybe at night, that big ghost will come to me .”

I have to say, this is indeed a way.

But Bai Wangchuan obviously wouldn't agree.His eyebrows were more serious than Qu Mo's, and his face was full of anger. He said: "You don't really think that the demon's soul said that you were a scavenger in your previous life, and you can be like your previous life in this life." Are you equally brave? At least from what I have observed so far, you are just an ordinary human being, can you clarify your current location, and what do you want me to do if something goes wrong?"

Qu Mo knew that he couldn't say any more hard words at this time, so he could only laugh along with him, and he said a few times: "I don't believe you will protect me? Otherwise, if you give me your mahogany sword, I think that would I hold things in my hands, and it seems to be able to manage things."

"You're thinking too much, there's no way I'd leave you here alone," Bai Wangchuan coldly rejected his proposal.

Qu Mo wanted to fight again, but before he could open his mouth, there was a shrill scream from outside.

The voice was that of a woman.

Both of them could hear very clearly, and they could immediately tell who the owner of the voice was.

"Didn't you already let her go?" Qu Mo spat, turned around and ran out towards the stairs.

Bai Wangchuan followed closely behind him.

However, in the next second, his eyes suddenly went dark, and he couldn't see anything at all, let alone Qu Mo who was running in front of him.

Bai Wangchuan was stunned for a moment.

Immediately, the corners of his mouth curled up into a bright smile.

"I originally thought you were a trash who only dared to bully little ghosts and humans, but I didn't expect that you have a big appetite, don't you?"

After the voice fell, a huge shadow gradually emerged from the darkness.

That shadow didn't look like a human being, it was four or five circles bigger than Bai Wangchuan.There was also a hazy circle of black smoke around him, and he couldn't see what the specific outline was, nor could he tell what it looked like.

Bai Wangchuan had a calm expression, staring at the black shadow indifferently.

I saw the thing squirming twice in front of him, and then a hoarse voice came out: "If I absorb you, I can leave here directly. There is no need for those wastes to waste my time. Then wait for me Going out from here, I can absorb everything in the Three Realms. Now it’s up to you, just wait for me to eat.”

Bai Wangchuan sneered.

"Who of us absorbs whom, maybe."

Before he could finish speaking, Sombra had already moved.

He rushed straight in Bai Wangchuan's direction.

The latter immediately took out the talisman paper to cover it.

However it didn't work.

The black shadow directly bumped into his body, but as if absorbed into his body, it disappeared without a trace in just a moment.

……

After Qu Mo ran out of the building, he raised his eyes and found that there was no sign of Ruan Ting on the flat ground.

After looking left and right for a while, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, and turned his head suddenly, only to find that the place behind him should be Bai Wangchuan, but it was replaced by the little girl in a foreign dress.

"Uncle, I saw your friend."

The little girl raised her head, stared at him with those big black eyes, and spoke at the same time.

Qu Mo looked up, but he didn't find Bai Wangchuan, so he hurriedly asked, "Where is he now?"

The little girl didn't speak, but turned around, stretched out a hand, and pointed to the building behind her.

Qu Mo looked up at the door he just ran out of.

The little girl said, "He is inside, and the big monster has caught him. Uncle, if you don't save him, the big monster will eat him."

Qu Mo listened to what she said, obviously some childish words, but he understood every word.

What the little girl meant was that Bai Wangchuan was targeted by that big ghost.

The moment he came to this conclusion, the string called reason in Qu Mo's mind broke immediately.He ran back in the direction of the building at the fastest speed, and the distance was almost negligible in his excessive speed.

After a while, he returned to the gloomy hall on the first floor.

Then he saw Bai Wangchuan standing in the middle of the hall.With his hands hanging by his sides, his head was lowered, as if he was thinking about something.

But Qu Mo knew that in the current situation, it was absolutely impossible for Bai Wangchuan to be distracted and think about other things, and still be so absorbed in thinking.So he took three steps and two steps, and quickly walked to Bai Wangchuan's side, but just as he was about to raise his hand to pat him on the shoulder, a black shadow suddenly flashed by.

Qu Mo subconsciously ducked back, "Er Hei?"

The black cat landed lightly on the ground, but this time it did not turn into a human again.He just looked up at him, and said: "He is fighting a fierce battle now, and if he thinks about it, he may never come back again. So don't disturb him, if you have time, why don't you go with me? Let the other souls here cross over."

Qu Mo was silent for a moment, but he was still a little worried and said: "Then he..."

"No one dares to approach here." Erhei said, "So let's go."

……

Bai Wangchuan lost consciousness for a moment the moment he was hit by the black shadow.When he came back to his senses, he found himself by a misty river.

The river is so wide that you can't see the other side.

There is no ferry on the river, only the mist that cannot be dispersed, floating for a long time.

"Wang Chuan? Why are you in a daze again?"

A familiar voice sounded beside him.

Bai Wangchuan looked back, and saw Erhei sitting beside him, holding a bowl of sake in his hand, and was drinking it down in one gulp.

Seeing his gaze coming over, Erhei also laughed: "What's the matter? You haven't gotten used to this body yet, have you?"

Bai Wangchuan shook his head.

He didn't understand, what does it mean to "get used to this body"?

Erhei continued to fill another bowl on his own, and after drinking it down again, he said, "However, it's normal not to get used to it. You have never transformed into a human form in all these years, and now you suddenly become Do you still feel aggrieved by this look?"

Bai Wangchuan opened his mouth.

I wanted to make a sound, but found myself as if someone had taken away the ability to speak. After holding back for a long time, I couldn't utter a word.

"Don't worry about it, it's very likely that you won't be able to learn to speak so quickly when you just turned into a human form," Er Hei smiled, and took out another empty bowl.Filling it with a bowl of sake, and handing it to Bai Wangchuan, he said, "Would you like to try it? This wine is quite delicious."

Bai Wangchuan subconsciously nodded, and then took the bowl.

The bowls of the two collided in the air.Erhei smiled and said, "Hey, but this is the first time I know that there is a river god on the river where I rowed for so many years."

Bai Wangchuan didn't understand what he was saying.I can only follow his example and drink the wine in the bowl in one gulp.

"I've heard people say before that all things have spirits, but there are reasons why they turn into human forms," ​​Erhei said, "For example, some flowers and plants turn into people because they fell in love with travelers passing by. .For another example, some animals turn into humans because they want to repay their kindness. Then you said that you suddenly became a human, can you tell me why?"

Bai Wangchuan was a little at a loss.

But Erhei obviously didn't intend to ask him to answer.

Just smiled again, and he continued: "Isn't it because of the general who came two days ago? Have you taken a fancy to him?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a muffled "dong".

Immediately afterwards, Erhei yelled "Ouch" in pain.

Behind him, a man in white with snowy white hair punched him in the head.But after seeing his aggrieved look, the man immediately stopped his stern look, and instead reached out and rubbed Erhei's head lightly twice, and said, "It's Lord River God anyway. Can't you understand some etiquette?"

Bai Wangchuan stared at the man.

He knows this man.

This person was also the one who had been with him and his master for many years before Erhei arrived.

Great white.

He wanted to call out the name, but still couldn't speak.

Before he could speak, Erhei rubbed his head, and began to complain: "What's the matter? We've always been a family of officials and people in the underworld. I believe that Lord River God will be able to chat with us." .”

"Like talking to you, did he take a fancy to that general?" Dabai's words were as sharp as ever.

Bai Wangchuan couldn't help curling up the corners of his mouth and showing a smile.

Erhei hummed twice, obviously not intending to admit his mistake.

Immediately, the scene in front of him became blurred.

When it became clear again, Bai Wangchuan found that he was still by that river.

Only this time he changed from sitting to standing.But when he turned his head to look around, Erhei and Dabai were no longer there.

"Excuse me, will you send me across the river this time?"

A familiar voice came from beside him, and Bai Wangchuan turned his head abruptly, and saw a man who looked exactly like Qu Mo, standing aside and looking at him with a smile.

Bai Wangchuan didn't know how to answer this question, but his body thought a step ahead of him, and nodded quickly.

Then he found that his body uncontrollably walked towards the river, boarded the boat, and paddled.Then slowly rowed forward.

Along the way, Qu Mo didn't say a word quietly, but he couldn't say anything at all.

Qu Mo didn't get off the boat until the boat stopped on the shore, then turned his head and smiled at him and thanked him.

Afterwards the picture is blurry and then clear again.

The process of ferrying was repeated repeatedly, and I didn’t even know how many times it was repeated. At last, Qu Mo raised his head and smiled and asked him, “What’s your name?”

Bai Wangchuan was taken aback.

After a long time, he heard himself blurt out two words from his mouth in an unprofessional tone——

"Forget River."

My name is Wang Chuan.

Bai Wangchuan heard these two words uttered from his own mouth, but the conversation he had with his master before he went down the mountain suddenly reappeared in his mind.

At that time, he asked Master why he gave him such a name.

Then his master told him—

"Because the place where I picked you up is by the Wangchuan River, and my surname is Bai. So you take my surname and call it Bai Wangchuan."

At that time, he always thought that Master was just finding a lie for something he didn't want to say.As for where he was picked up from, the master didn't say, and he himself didn't particularly care about it.

But at this moment, Bai Wangchuan suddenly began to feel that what the master told him back then might not be just a joke.

The screen went dark again, and then light reappeared.

Only this time, he found himself not on that river.

He returned to the lobby on the first floor of the unfinished building, and the black mist was still floating in front of his eyes.

The emotions in his eyes turned complicatedly, and when he raised his eyes again, there was only firmness left.He said, "You've seen my memory, do you think you'll have a chance to run?"

"you……"

This time, the black mist finally started to get nervous, and even the answering voice was a little more trembling.It said: "Impossible, how is it possible. You, aren't you just a third-rate Taoist priest who doesn't even know my exact location?"

"I thought so too," Bai Wangchuan shrugged, his appearance seemed to be more incomprehensible than the black mist, "but it turns out that I am not just a simple trash Taoist priest. So... "

"Sanqing is above, lend me supernatural powers. Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire, teach me to slay demons! Hurry up like a law!"

He uttered an incantation.

Just heard a loud bang.

A thick purple thunder fell from the sky and hit the black mist directly.

Then, along with the thunder, there was a heart-piercing scream from the black mist.

The beam of the house was broken by lightning, and huge stones kept falling on him.

Bai Wangchuan calmly listened to all the sounds around him, until the screams finally faded away, then he yawned reassuringly, and then slowly opened his eyes.

This time he was still in that building.

The building was not damaged in any way.

It's just that the person in front of him was replaced by Qu Mo.

Seeing him open his eyes, Qu Mo hurriedly said nervously: "Is there nothing wrong? Just now Erhei said that you are engaged in a very important battle and won't let me approach, but I think you just stand where you are, that is very important Is the battle over?"

Bai Wangchuan nodded.

Tilting his head to think for a while, he still chose to explain the situation in front of him first: "The big ghost got into my body, and then it was equivalent to in my consciousness space, and I got rid of him."

Qu Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Wangchuan said again: "But I also saw the hallucination you often talked about before."

Qu Mo was taken aback: "What did you see?"

"I saw you." Bai Wangchuan said, "And if this hallucination is real, I might really have appeared in this world for you."
