The Taste of Ghosts in the World

As soon as he returned to the human world, Qi Mu couldn't wait to feel the familiar air around him, but he didn't find any abnormalities, let alone felt any strong spiritual power fluctuations. The human world was still the same, it seemed that there was no difference from when they left.

So he asked Feng Baisui: "Do you feel any difference?"

"Yes." The other party said without hesitation, Qi Mu felt cold when he heard this, and asked, "What is it?"

"That," Feng Baisui pointed to the big cloth bear girl in front of the house, "I didn't have it when I left."

"..."

Resisting the urge to kick his face, Qi Mu took a few steps forward and carefully sized up the child——

The exquisite puff-sleeved princess dress, the huge and conspicuous cloth bear toy, and the pale and lifeless little girl, this combination gave him a strange and familiar feeling, as if he had seen it before...

Seeing them, the little girl's eyes lit up and she stood up quickly.

Qi Mu approached suspiciously, and the first thing she said was: "I found you!" That excited expression was like finding a long-lost relative.

The two of Qi Feng were stunned for a long time, Feng Baisui turned his head and asked Qi Mu: "Is it your illegitimate daughter?"

"Huh?" Qi Mu stroked his chin, "I think it looks like yours. Look, there are dragon horns on the head."

"...that's a bow."

"No, she said 'we'?"

Feng Baisui's eyes wandered to Qi Mu's stomach...

"It was definitely not born by me!" Qi Mu stared and pushed away his thoughtful face.

The child didn't notice their whispering, and said very seriously to himself: "So you are hiding here! I haven't played this game before, so I thought I couldn't find it, but when I asked, everyone nearby knew you , and enthusiastically led me here, it's not difficult at all!"

"I remembered!" Qi Mu finally understood why she looked familiar. Before they left the human world, they met this child once. He tricked her into playing peek-a-boo and asked her to come and find them. Afterwards, they went to the demon world, and this incident was also forgotten.

I didn't expect this child to be so stubborn that she took it seriously. Even though they left for almost half a year, she actually waited here for half a year.

Looking at the little girl's shining eyes, clearly saying "I'm so smart, please praise me", Qi Mu suddenly felt a sense of guilt, he quickly patted her head, and praised her softly: "You are really smart!" Great! You actually found it."

"Hey..." The little girl smiled a little embarrassedly, "I can't see anyone, and I thought it was because I didn't find the right one, and you guys wouldn't play with me."

Qi Mu's heart trembled, and he felt even more guilty. He hurriedly pulled her into the house, sighed to Feng Baisui before entering the door, and said in a low voice, "I just told you not to lie to children! Sooner or later I will be punished!"

Feng Baisui pouted disapprovingly.

Seeing them coming back, the two members of the family were so happy that they circled around several times. Qi Mu took out a specially chosen gift, and the female ghost screamed and hugged him hard, but was dragged down by Feng Baisui with a cold face. Throwing her head out of the door, the uncle is used to this kind of thing, and went out silently to find the girl's head back.

When the female ghost was finally able to speak, Qi Mu asked the housekeeper, father and daughter, if anything special happened after they left.

"Special thing?" The female ghost shook her head and thought for a while, "For us, we just feel that the city is much safer. It turns out that those bastard celestial masters who wander around everywhere and accept them when they see ghosts have not been encountered very often recently, and they can be fine at night. Went out to play...Hey! When it comes to Heavenly Master, I think of that kid surnamed Qi, he came here to look for you once."

"Qi Buyang? What is he looking for me for?"

"I don't know. He came to ask me if Qi Mu was there. I was afraid that his grandpa would follow, so I didn't dare to go out. I just told him that you are no longer alive, and he left without saying anything."

"Oh." Qi Mu nodded, Qi Buyang used to come to him often, it's nothing special, "Is there any more?"

"And... that's her!" The female ghost pointed to the girl behind Qi Mu, and floated over to pinch her face, "This stubborn child has been sitting at the door for a long time, saying that he is playing peek-a-boo to find someone who lives here. Two elder brothers, I told her that my elder brother was not here and came in to play with my elder sister, but she didn't listen, she just refused to come in."

The little girl stuck out her tongue and said honestly: "Mom said you can't enter other people's homes without the owner's permission."

"Then you found us now, you won the peek-a-boo, what are you going to do next?" Qi Mu asked her.

The little girl hugged her big cloth bear who never left her body tightly, with a dazed expression.

Qi Mu smiled, "Then stay here for now."

"Really? Can I live in your house?"

Before Qi Mu nodded, the female ghost had rushed over to hug the cute child, rubbed her face, and said with a smile: "Little sister, what's your name? How about living here and playing with my sister? My sister is very fun." , Look! The head can be taken off!" He said and threw his head out, and the uncle said "Oops" and hurriedly caught it in his arms.

"My name is Xiaoqi." The little girl said in a soft voice, she glanced at Qi Mu questioningly, and seeing him nodding, she happily said, "I'm not very good at playing, sister, you have to teach me."

"Of course, of course!" The female ghost began to pull the ear of Bu Xiong in his arms again, and asked, "Xiao Qi, you are so old that you just love to play, and you don't know how to play. Is it because your mother is too strict?" ah?"

"No, no!" Xiao Qi shook his head again and again, feeling a little wronged: "It's because I'm not in good health, I can't go out, and no children are willing to play with me... Mom bought me a lot of toys, and I just played with them."

"That's it..." The female ghost patted the cloth bear's head gently, "Then it's your best friend? Let me guess what it's called...Xiao Xiaoqi?"

"Wow! How do you know? Little Qi is my best friend!" Xiao Qi showed an expression of admiration on his face, and then he seemed to suddenly think of something, and lowered his head in frustration, "But it's not my Little Qi, this The baby bear was bought for me by my mother, and she said she wanted a new one to accompany me there, but I only want Xiaoqi..."

The child's dark eyes were foggy, and she was about to cry. After all, the female ghost was young before she was alive, and she didn't know how to coax the child, so she was so frightened that she hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay, we'll help you find Xiao Xiaoqi, don't worry." Are you sad?"

"Really?" Xiao Qi was delighted when he heard that, his pale white face lit up, "Can you really find Xiao Xiao Qi?"

The female ghost made a promise casually in a panic, but now she was embarrassed when being questioned, so she had to ask Qi Mu for help pitifully.

Qi Mu immediately caught the attention of the two ghosts, one big and one small, and nodded helplessly, "Don't worry Xiao Qi, we will find a way for you."

"That's right, your elder brother Qi Mu has great powers, and he will definitely find it!" The female ghost immediately lost the pressure, and without guilt, she shifted the responsibility to the head of the family.

The other parent has long been used to Qi Mu's troublesome upper body, and just raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked him annoyedly, "How do you plan to find him?"

"I don't know." Qi Mu answered easily, "Take your time."

Then I asked Xiaoqi carefully about the characteristics of the cloth bear, anyway, that's all I can do now.

Although it was rare to come back, Qi Mu and Feng Baisui didn't forget the reason why they came back to the human world. They didn't care about visiting relatives for a while, and ran around every day where they felt strange, but they still found nothing.However, there is one thing that is rather strange—the monster race is the most common, most numerous, and most well-informed foreigner in the world. If you ask them, you may be able to ask something, but every time they rush to the place, there are always demons. Rare and lifeless, let alone find out the demons who have become fine to inquire about the situation.

As for Xiaoqi's big cloth bear, Qi Mu suddenly remembered the privilege granted to him by the thrush fairy before he left, so he asked all the birds in the city to help him find it, but there is no news yet.

"Xiao Qi! Catch it!"

Following the female ghost's reminder, her dark head drew a parabola in the air and flew steadily into Xiaoqi's arms, but the next second, the head fell off Xiaoqi's hands with a thud, smashing to the ground.

The little girl quickly picked it up and patted her hair guiltily. The female ghost comforted: "It's okay, I'll definitely pick it up next time!"

"Ok!"

Xiaoqi threw his head to the female ghost and started playing happily again.

Feng Baisui came out of the kitchen and handed a glass of water to Qi Mu who was on the sofa. The latter took it, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Do you think Xiao Qi is becoming more and more transparent?"

"Obviously," Feng Baisui raised his eyelids and glanced over there, "her spirit body is getting thinner and thinner. If she doesn't reincarnate, she will die naturally."

"But her bear hasn't been found yet..."

"Have you noticed?" Feng Baisui interrupted him, "The aura of the human world is becoming more and more unstable."

"It can't be balanced forever," Qi Mu said with a frown, "but the current speed is too fast, if this continues, even uncles and others who have reached a stable state will have to reincarnate."

Just as he was talking, a little sparrow flew over and pecked at the window. Qi Mu got up to open the window, and the sparrow fluttered in and landed on his shoulder.

"Any news?"

It chirped a few times and jumped up and down on Qi Mu's shoulder, but unfortunately no one could understand it.

At this time, there was the sound of flapping wings again, and three magpies flew over with a large gray-brown object in their mouths, but something went wrong when it was sent into the window—the unknown object blocked the window frame.

The three birds chirped and chatted for a while, the leader one fell to the ground and turned into a dark-skinned young man, stretched out his hand and dragged the thing in, and delivered it to Qi Mu.

Only then did Qi Mu see clearly that it was a broken big cloth bear, one of the plastic eyes had been lost, the stitches in many places were torn, exposing the stuffing inside, and the fur color had faded to gray. The original color cannot be seen.

"I found it in a human's house. They didn't throw it away. They just put it on the bed." The young man who changed into a human form explained.

Qi Mu quickly thanked, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"You are the leader's friend, so it's nothing." The young man waved his hand, bit his lower lip after saying this, hesitated for a while and said, "The leader told us to obey your orders, and we should stand by for orders." , but recently the human world is not very peaceful. Many demon people who have settled here have begun to move back. We also plan to go back to the demon world to avoid it. If you need anything during this time, please go to the entrance of the demon world and let us know. Come."

"Okay." Qi Mu smiled and said, "Go back quickly, don't worry about me."

"There will be a period later."

After the young man finished speaking, he turned back into a magpie and flew away with his companion.

Qi Mu looked at Feng Baisui, "It seems that these little monsters have also noticed the change."

"I have a hunch," Feng Baisui frowned, "Maybe the reincarnation of the Three Realms will be advanced."

Qi Mu opened his eyes wide, "Why..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a surprised voice shout: "Xiao Xiaoqi!"
