It is strictly forbidden to pay for the ticket after getting on the bus

Sure enough, after approaching Mr. Xuetang, he suddenly stretched out a hand to block in front of him, like a door god, making it clear that he didn't want them to go out.

"Go to the other side!" Bai Jue growled.

The four of them ran towards the other door with all their strength. The back room of this kind of house is connected to each other, and there is another exit through the corridor.

But as soon as they arrived at the other door, the ghost of the school teacher appeared at the door again like a gust of wind, and the air flow brought by it blew up a large pile of white rice paper at the feet, like throwing paper money.

"What do you mean?" Bai Jue's face darkened, "You want to keep us here?"

"Ugh--"

A soft sigh resounded from the mouth of Mr. Ghost, and the whole school seemed to tremble twice following the sigh.

Bai Jue had never heard such a heavy sigh, as if he had suppressed the pain for a hundred years and hadn't been released for a day, it made everyone who heard it tremble.

"...I have committed a lot of sins... I have... let... be happy!" It seems that I haven't spoken for a long time, and this ghost said very It was strenuous, and the sound seemed to be ground by a saw.

"Happy what? Are you saying that you are called Happy Ghost?" Bai Luochuan looked up at him with a smile.

Bai Jue choked for a moment, and said helplessly: "Little clever ghost, promise Dad, don't be so clever at this time, okay?"

Bai Luochuan rolled his eyes, but his eyes suddenly froze. He stared blankly at the body of Mr. Ghost in the school, and murmured: "...my friend who is already a father, your child asked you to go back to eat gone."

"WTF?"

Bai Jue frowned and looked over, only to realize that what Bai Luochuan was staring at was not the body of Mr. Ghost, but through the body, he saw two familiar little boys at the entrance of the yard.

It was the two boys at the Hermitage Inn.

Holding hands and standing side by side at the gate of the courtyard.

Like a child waiting for his parents to pick him up at the school gate after school.

It's just that the gray and dead air all over the body, coupled with the gloomy sky, cold wind, and mottled white walls, make the whole picture not so innocent and cute.

"Sir, we are here to pick up the guests." The older brother said.

"Mom," Si Qi rubbed her arms, "This voice sounds so scary, the guest is talking about us, this inn is quite conscientious."

"Children's voices are like this. This is your psychological effect." Lin Jiu said.

Si Qi wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Bai Jue's booing.

She shut up helplessly, tearing up countless unequal treaties in her heart-damn, you two were still flirting in front of the school teacher just now, think I'm deaf!What if it's my turn to flirt?

Mr. Xuetang turned his head when he heard the sound, looked at the two boys, remained silent and didn't speak, his figure looked desolate.

The child continued: "Grandpa said that those who live at home are guests, and we will pick them up."

Another younger brother repeated: "Yes, take the guests back."

Bai Jue said in a low voice: "Sure enough, the younger brother is the older brother's repeater."

Bai Luochuan glared at him: "Son, you agreed not to shake your head?"

Si Qi: "..." It was only aimed at me, and I reported it disheartened.

The two sides stalemate for a while, Xuetang Mr. Gui finally let go, and said calmly: "I'm afraid it's not as a guest, but as a shield..."

Bai Jue and the others walked out, he looked into Mr. Xuetang's ghostly eyes, the eyes were a bit sad, they fell gently and slowly on a corner of the yard, and sighed again.

It was inexplicably sad to hear.

There was no time to dawdle any longer, and they followed the two little boys and walked back in the direction of the Hermit Inn.

Along the way, it endured countless attention gifts from residents of the town a hundred years ago.

"Hey, tell me," Si Qi thought suddenly, "Can we talk to this kid?"

"You ask and try." Lin Jiu said.

"Little friend, how did you die?" Si Qi took a step or two forward and walked to the side of the boy.

"You're crazy!" Lin Jiu was so angry that he shook his head, "Did you ask that! At least ask the name first, how old are you, do you understand step by step! Once you come, you will poke someone's sore spot!"

Si Qi rolled her eyes: "You girls don't have as many twists and turns as you guys, they are all straightforward, okay?"

After saying that, he glanced at Bai Luochuan meaningfully.

Lin Jiu: "..."

Bai Luochuan: "..." It feels really uncomfortable to beat around the bush and be shot.

"Big monster! The big monster was chased away by Mr.—" the younger brother answered in a childish voice.

Fuck, I really asked!

Bai Jue was startled for two seconds. He remembered the monster he saw on the train the first night, and asked eagerly, "What big monster, is it the one-eyed thing? Is it the beast from the back mountain?" ?”

And the child didn't seem to hear what he asked, just kept repeating: "The big monster was chased away by the husband... The big monster was chased away by the husband..."

Can't find any other useful information.

Back in the inn, Bai Jue went around the kitchen, the 'grandfather' gave him a cloudy look, but didn't say anything.

Bai Jue pretended to inadvertently ask, "When will the big monster that the kids mentioned appear?"

And at the moment when the word 'big monster' just uttered, Bai Jue clearly saw that the old man's face twitched, his eyes, which were always as quiet as stagnant water, were filled with fear and hatred, and his withered palm quickly grasped the old man's face. A stick with blood on it.

The speed is so fast that you can't even catch your eyes, it seems to be the most feared thing in your life.

Even after he died, this fear still remained clearly in his heart, took root, and could never be eradicated.

Bai Jue glanced at the wooden stick, sighed and walked out of the kitchen.

"Tomorrow is the Lunar New Year's Eve here, and it's also the last day for the train to stop." At night, Bai Luochuan rested his head on the bed leisurely, "The ticket will definitely appear at the last time."

Bai Jue washed his face, shook the water off his hand, and said, "Then guess how the ticket will appear."

Bai Luochuan relieved himself, huddled into a ball on the bed, buried him in the quilt, and said, "In the game, the important items will only appear after killing the boss, and it's the same as the previous few times here."

Bai Jue lay down with his clothes on: "The key is how to kill him."

"Let's kill like this," Bai Luochuan stretched out his hands and gestured randomly, "First, a set of Taiji Wuyingquan, then a Qinglongyanyue knife, then Baguazhang Helix Pill, and then..."

Lying beside him, Bai Jue caught off guard and laughed out loud, clapping his hand: "...How long have you been sick, young man? It's cured!"

Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, Bai Luochuan fell silent. After a long time, until Bai Jue thought that he had fallen asleep, and he was already in a daze, he whispered: "You are right."

It is a disease that can be cured, but what if it cannot be cured?Then he has nothing to lose.

----------------

The [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, New Year's Eve.

Today is also the last day for trains to stop at this platform.

When Bai Jue woke up in the morning, he saw that the thick fog outside the town had dissipated a lot, and he could faintly see the scenery outside the town.

And this town has become a veritable ghost town today.

All the 'aboriginal people' who only appeared after dusk appeared in the morning, and at first they scared Lin Jiu half to death who had just come downstairs.

Apart from their ghostly appearance, this place looks more like an ordinary New Year's town.

The red lanterns on the street are obviously much brighter, and the shops of various houses are open, forming the appearance of a market, with the flow of people, oh no, the flow of ghosts.

It's just that the jubilant New Year's market is set against the decadent ghostly atmosphere, which is weird no matter how you look at it.

"Wow!" Bai Luochuan muttered by the door, with a trace of uncontrollable excitement in his voice, "Is this a ghost market? We won't be torn apart by them when we go out, right?"

"First, if they are interested in tearing people apart, you will be torn apart whether you get out or not," Bai Jue said. "Second, it's obvious that the ghosts here have no interest in eating people."

"Then what is it that ate Zhang Feng and Yang Zhen?" Si Qi asked, "The beast on the back mountain, or the innocent souls of those girls?"

"It's possible," Bai Jue pondered for a moment, "The girl in the inn didn't show up today."

"That's right, it's the same on the street, there aren't many young girls." Bai Luochuan said.

When they left the inn, they felt a layer of goose bumps on their skin.

It was so much colder outside than the previous few days.

This is the breath from the ghoul, and it also has a rotten smell.

"What the hell is this?" Bai Luochuan hugged his hands and rubbed his arms, his teeth were shaking from the cold, "This is clearly a mobile freezer for the whole street!"

This kind of cold is not simply a low temperature, but a coldness that can penetrate into the bones, making people feel cold from head to toe.

"This is Huangquan Road, right?" Si Qi clicked her tongue.

"Don't say such unlucky words." Lin Jiu trembled, shaking his hands together on his chest.

"Hey, it's this time and you still pray to God and worship Buddha," Si Qi poked Lin Jiu's arm, "Look at you, you don't have any fat at all, I guess in a few hours, you will be the most god-like popsicle on this street .”

"Objectively speaking, this kind of cold can't freeze people into popsicles." Bai Jue said.

"Don't be objective," Bai Luochuan interrupted mercilessly, "If we can't find a ticket, we have to consider the housing price here."

"Why?"

"Long live!" Bai Luochuan said solemnly, "Otherwise, do you think you can escape?"

"What do you think is the key to killing the boss?" Bai Jue asked.

Bai Luochuan thought for a while, and said, "The death conditions of the people here are similar, only that Mr. Xuetang is a bit special, maybe you will find something on him."
