Demon, he has something to say

Jimochi carried a hostile spirit, in the past, when ten ordinary people met him, ten would make a detour, but now the people in this small town are all exceptions, and they don't seem to be too afraid of evil heretics like him.

Xiao Shitou's words sounded like thunder on a sunny day. As soon as he finished speaking, the people guarding the gate began to whisper, and the crack in the city gate became wider and wider.

When the two sides were at a stalemate, Xing Yishan looked up and found that the small town was so dilapidated that it couldn't be described in words.

The gate of the city was unguarded, and a part of the city wall had collapsed, and it had been soaked with mud. There was not even a sign on the gate, and weeds were all underfoot.

With a sound of "creak", the city gate was pushed wide open by everyone, revealing the scene inside the city.I saw men, women and children consciously divided into two groups. On the left, there are men, women, beautiful and ugly. The only thing in common is that they all wear gold and silver, and have the words "We are all rich people" written all over their bodies.The group on the right is mostly old and weak women and children, all of them are tightly packed from head to toe, their faces are pale and lifeless.

There are so many "living dead".

Little Stone is crowded into the crowd on the right.

Jimochi and Xing Yishan were looking at the people in the city, and the people in the city were also looking at them.Different from the searching eyes of the two, most of the people in the city were looking at them with unfriendly, even disgusting eyes.

This aversion to small stones is especially manifested.

"I saw it all. They were the two who beat the Great Immortal away." After a long silence, Xiao Shitou suddenly hummed: "They both wanted to catch the Great Immortal, but they couldn't catch it."

Hearing this, everyone frowned.

Seeing that none of the people in the city was willing to answer the question, Little Shitou had his hips on his hips, with dozens of life-exorcing talismans bulging in his arms, and rolled his eyes to the sky: "What? You! If you are in the way here, the Great Immortal will not dare to come back!"

Little Shitou took the lead, and the gang of gentlemen on the left followed suit, and everyone shouted loudly.

"That's right, why are there two more quarrelsome people here? There are so many other things in the world, it's not enough for you to take care of them? We live a good life here, who cares about you..."

"The Great Immortal is right, you guys are always self-righteous, it's not helpful all day long and you think you're a very powerful stick, it's annoying!"

"Good job, if you have this skill, why don't you go home and enjoy the blessings, don't block other people's way of making money unwisely!"

……

The common people scolded one after another, at first it was relatively civilized, but gradually it became something unspeakable, relatives and ancestors from all walks of life joined the battle, and were forced to take turns to have various ambiguous relationships in everyone's mouth.

Jimo Chi was furious at being scolded, his temples twitched, he clenched his fists instinctively, but Xing Yishan held it down in time.

"Master, this small town seems to be a world of its own, people outside don't come, and people inside don't leave. The rules in the city are different from other places." Xing Yishan said to Jimochi: " The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and there is no prosperity in the waste, and the people in the town have long been accustomed to seeing strange things, so they don't have the slightest respect for them."

Jimo Chi sneered.

How fresh, other places are full of ghosts to scare people, but here people call ghosts.

"Give us back the Great Immortal!"

Suddenly, I don't know who yelled this, and the others followed immediately. After a while, the sparse cursing turned into a massive denunciation.

Jimo Chi is the head of all demons, although he is usually reticent, the demon cultivators either respect him or fear him, and they will flatter him when they meet.Jimo Chi has been in the Wangui Sect for many years, every day except for eating, he finds people to discuss with others. It can be said that he has developed a good habit of being able to fight but never speak, and rarely argues seriously with anyone.Doing a good deed is even worse, facing these mortals who have no power to restrain a chicken, it is not good to have a good temper, and when they are scolded, they will only silently recite the Taoist Qingjing Sutra thirty times in their hearts.

Just when the two of them were thinking about trying to force their way in, a weak voice suddenly came from behind and asked, "You...are you also immortals?"

Xunsheng turned around and found that it was a woman in a black dress——and a living dead.

The woman was born not to be short, with a black gauze covering her face, leaving only a pair of cloudy eyes exposed, her figure was a bit stooped, and her right sleeve was empty, as if an arm had been broken.

As soon as the woman appeared, the people in the city immediately fell silent. After a while, they heard a man in his forties ask her: "Miss Zhang, are you still going home?"

Hearing this, the woman shook her head lightly, then fixed her gaze persistently on Jimochi, staggered two steps forward, her eyes were wide open, like a drowning man catching driftwood and refusing to let it go Kai: "You... If you are also immortals, can you do me a favor?"

Jimochi had an intuition that this woman was weird, but he couldn't point out what was wrong with her.Just as he was about to answer the conversation, he found that the people who were still screaming and cursing just now had silently closed the city gate.

forget it.Jimochi thought calmly.Is there anyone here who is not to blame?The one in front of me can still communicate at least.

Beside him, Xing Yishan promptly asked, "What do you want us to do for you?"

Hearing the loose mouth, the woman seemed to be afraid that the other person would regret it, and hurriedly continued: "I can't explain in a few words, but I live in a small thatched hut outside the city, not far from here, can you come with me? I ... I really have no one to talk about, they all think I'm crazy and don't listen to me."

This may be a breakthrough.Jimo Chi pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes."

After getting a satisfactory answer, the woman gave a hoarse smile, then turned around and led Jimochi and Xing Yishan to her residence.There was no words all the way, the woman walked very slowly, her left leg was still a little limp, and she was shaky as if she would fall to the ground in the next moment. The trail that was not far away was wobbled by her for a long time before she finished it. When we got there, it was completely dark.

As soon as the sky darkened, the woman's empty sleeves fluttered in the night wind. Coupled with her pale blue face, it was just like the ecstasy of black impermanence.

But there really wasn't an iota of hostility about her.

Jimochi followed her into the house, shielding Xing Yishan behind him without a trace, seeing her tremblingly lighting up the oil lamp, taking off her veil, her white face being dazzled by the dim light, he was secretly surprised.

Jimo Chi thought to himself: Sure enough.

This woman had a face of less than 30 years old, her voice was very young, and she should have looked good, but unfortunately she had a palm-sized burn on her right cheek, and she was also a living dead.

The woman was a little embarrassed. She wanted to pour some water for the guests, but when she picked up the teapot, she found that it was empty. There was no food or water, so she smiled timidly, pointed to a straw mat on the ground and said, "... Sit down, sit down, I really have nothing left to entertain you, I'm a dead man now, I don't need to eat or sleep, I..."

No one actually sat down.

After a while, Jimo Chi interrupted her in a cold voice: "Okay, let's get down to business."

Because everything in front of him is too similar to what he saw at the bottom of Baisong Cliff 300 years ago, even though he still has reason, Jimochi still feels a strong discomfort.Xing Yishan, who was still standing beside him, noticed it in time, reached out and gently grabbed his sleeve, chatting for comfort.

On the other side, the woman was frightened by Jimo Chi's cold tone and took two steps back, lowered her head, moved to the side of Xing Yishan who seemed to be more talkative, and whispered: "Actually... Actually, my name is Zhang Huanhuan , is the first person in this town to worship the Great Immortal."

Xing Yishan froze for a moment, and found that Zhang Zhang was actually talking to him.

"...No, no, it's not a great god, it's a monster." Zhang Huan still had a crying expression on his face, and his facial features were tangled together, making the scald scar even more hideous: "I, I'm sick, It was a man who couldn’t see his face clearly who gave my brother a talisman and took him to pray in a temple outside the city.”

"At the beginning, we sister and brother didn't believe it at all, but I was dying at that time, and it was better to have Zhang Xiemen's talisman than nothing. My younger brother secretly used the life-borrowing talisman for me according to the method that person said. , I was able to get out of bed the next day."

"I did come back to life, but I didn't like the sun, I wasn't hungry or sleepy, and I didn't even feel pain. My brother was very happy and took me to a temple outside the city to fulfill my vows. Although I felt evil, I still followed him. went."

Zhang Huan also said that her voice became softer and she even cried a little. She grabbed Xing Yishan's hand and squeezed her bloodless fingers tightly with all her strength: "We went to the temple to burn incense. We didn't expect that. The stone statue suddenly came back to life, and told us...that I can only live for three years, if I want more life span, I have to bring more people to worship him, and just a few years for a few people.”

Xing Yishan said clearly: "So you took people there, didn't you?"

Zhang Huan still bit his lips and nodded: "At that time, we really didn't have any bad ideas. We just wanted to live. The monster said that he could help all of us get what we wanted, so I thought, this is also a good thing."

While the two were talking, Jimochi glanced at Zhang's hand that was still clasped with Xing Yishan, and curled his lips impatiently.

Xing Yishan didn't realize it, not only didn't let go, but comforted Zhang very considerately and said: "Don't be afraid, you are also kind."

"Yes! Of course we are kind!" Zhang Huan also said sharply: "We brought a lot of people to worship it, because of this, it gave me a 50-year life-giving talisman, and slowly, people in the city who believed in it More and more, and know that it's not just healing."

"I survived, watching the people in the city getting more and more crazy, the government office became a decoration, and the officials changed one after another, most of them because they couldn't stand the weird atmosphere in the city, they secretly traded the lifespan of the family members for promotion And now the remaining official has become the most loyal believer of the monster. Our place is almost isolated from the world. Whenever someone from above comes to investigate, the official will order us, the living dead, to hide at home. Then let those rich merchants put on a show."

"Originally, it's nothing." Zhang Huan also gave a sharp smile: "But later I discovered that the existence of us living dead will slowly eat away at the virtues and bodies of those around us. Since I lived When I came here, my brother became worse and worse, and the doctor couldn’t tell why, until one morning, I found him lying on the bed and died, his facial features were distorted, as if he had seen something particularly terrifying, I put this I told people in the city about it, but everyone didn’t believe it, and they all thought that my brother died because of a sudden illness.”

"But I know that my brother was killed by me, I just know it! Those in the city who have living dead in their families, their relatives are not in good health, often before long, the whole family will turn into living dead. Use the life talisman to continue your life!"

Zong Ying patted her on the shoulder and heard her continue: "I was terrified at the time, and hurried to the temple to ask for a new life-borrowing talisman, but the monster told me that the life-borrowing talisman had to be borrowed from a stranger. To put it bluntly, that thing can only extend life, but it can't bring the dead back to life. Furthermore, even if my brother didn't die, it was because we brought people to worship him that he gave away the life-exorcising talisman for nothing. Give it to us, since the free gift has been used up, if you want it again, then... you have to exchange it with the one thing I value most."

Jimo Chi listened silently for a long time, until then he sighed: "At this moment, you must know that it is not a good thing."

Zhang also nodded quickly: "I know, I know, I know it's a monster, it—"

Before Zhang was still terrified, Jimochi suddenly sighed again, and said to himself: "No...that's not a monster, it's a human being, a person completely manipulated by evil spirits."

Just like in the original plot of "Nine Heavens", he was manipulated by evil spirits to try to prove the truth with bones, and he was killing indiscriminately.
