Modern Little Town God
Chapter 87 Big Locust Tree┃Huang Village, the entrance to the Ghost City.
Before Ruan Jiao could answer, the head of the paper pierced man turned 180 degrees, looked forward, and said in a hurry: "Oh, it's almost here, you see how time flies. Brother, let's talk later, we have to hurry to get off the bus."
Ruan Jiao felt his heart beating a hundred and eighty-he realized that this guy turned his head around to talk, if he hadn't turned it back suddenly, he really wouldn't have noticed!Do you want to be so scary?
Zong Suizhong's expression was also a little strange. He also saw the scene of the paper piercing man turning his head, which was quite horrifying.
After regaining his composure, he whispered to Ruan Jiao, "Is the paper pierced man a ghost?"
Ruan Jiao also gave him some popular science in a low voice, and said: "Senior should have heard that after the paper-made man is burned, the same paper-made 'human' will appear in the underworld to serve the sacrificed ghosts. Yin-passing. Some ghosts can save a lot of ghost power by possessing a special paper piercing person, and can also reduce the damage caused by things that ghosts are afraid of. However, this kind of paper piercing person cannot be used by all ghosts. If it’s not enough, it’s also difficult to move when you get in the paper piercing person. That old ghost has lived for a long time, and he uses the paper piercing person like his second body.”
Zong Suizhong nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
Ruan Jiao couldn't help laughing again and said: "But the senior is very domineering, there is no ghost in the car full of you who is not afraid of you, I think that old ghost just bowed down and wanted to ask I will be your little brother."
Zong Suizhong had always been flattered, but at this time he listened to Ruan Jiao's teasing, he only glanced at him, and said, "You know, I'm very short of people."
Ruan Jiao understood the meaning, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
"What does the senior mean...?"
Zong Suizhong said: "If there is a new batch of employees who can work at night, why not? According to what you said, the old ghost has lived for a long time and is very powerful, but what I need is not strength, but strength. It’s business ability. If he’s been learning all these years, maybe he’s trying to come and be scouted when I’m hiring.”
Ruan Jiao: "...Senior is right."
In short, even ghosts are not spared.
As the old ghost said, the ghost car seemed to have arrived at a stop, gradually slowed down, and finally stopped.
At this moment, a chilly, gloomy voice sounded.
"Huangcun, arrive at the station; Huangcun, arrive at the station."
"Ghost passengers arriving at the station, please get off the bus, ghost passengers arriving at the station, please get off the bus."
"The living people who arrived at the station..."
The voice suddenly and strangely paused.
Many passengers in front turned their heads in unison, with a strange expression on their ferocious ghost faces, but that expression was also stiff like the pause of their voices.
Those grimaces reacted in the next moment of stiffness, scrambling towards the front car door as if they were frightened, you pushed me and squeezed you, and a few crazy people who lost their heads grabbed their hair and picked them up. Rolling, climbing, and sprinting—only a second, and it's all gone.
Ruan Jiao was speechless.
It is customary for this ghost car to do something to the living people at the end. I just realized that the living people who came over after I said it smoothly were not fucking ordinary living people, so I was scared.
Well, with such a big black hole, no matter who it is, it can run so fast... How are they going to ask the specific location of the ghost city?He didn't even have time to ask the old ghost for the exact location just now.
At this time, Zong Suizhong stood up and walked towards the driver.
Ruan Jiao's eyelids twitched.
Zong Suizhong's voice was very calm, and he asked directly: "How can I get to the ghost market?"
The driver's body was trembling, and his voice was also trembling: "Yes, yes, right ahead, turn right, and then..."
After a long time, there was no further text. Ruan Jiao saw that the driver was about to collapse, and felt deep sympathy in his heart.
...Why bother, senior, don't you know how scary you are?
Zong Suizhong waited patiently for a while, but the more he stood still, the more trembling the driver became.
Ruan Jiao finally couldn't stand it anymore, walked to the front in two or three steps, pulled Zong Suizhong behind him, and said to himself: "Brother, I see that you can't explain clearly, or you can lead us the way."
driver:"……"
After only a second of pause, he spoke the route very smoothly and clearly.
Ruan Jiao raised his eyebrows—he already knew that the reason for stuttering was that the pressure was not strong enough. If the pressure was really high enough, he would definitely have to perform beyond the bottom line.
"Thanks then, man, let's get out of the car first?"
The driver said quickly: "Please, please, welcome again in the future..." He shut up and decided not to come again.
Ruan Jiao didn't mind either, and pulled Zong Suizhong's forearm to let him get out of the car with her.
Zong Suizhong stood beside Ruan Jiao and glanced at the ghost car.
As soon as the driver stepped on the accelerator, the ghost car made a "swish" sound and disappeared in seconds.
Ruan Jiao: "Pfft."
Zong Suizhong: "Let's go."
Ruan Jiao: "Hahaha! Let's go, let's go now. Senior, come this way...puhhaha."
Zong Suizhong gave Ruan Jiao a helpless look.
He himself didn't know what the black hole on his body was, and why it was so deterrent to ghosts.However, after getting into the car, he vaguely discovered that as long as the ghost didn't have any malice towards him, the black hole didn't seem to have any reaction.
That's fine—since there is another world, the ghosts that people become after death are equivalent to the residents of this world. If he makes the other party disappear casually, it's no different from killing people.
·
Ruan Jiao's ability to recognize the road is quite strong. After the ghost driver explained the route clearly, he quickly brought Zong Suizhong to the vicinity of Huangcun.
Huangcun is a very quaint town, and there are many traces of folk customs throughout the year. The village itself is connected to four sides, and there are many small roads and streets, which are very lively.
Ruan Jiao and Zong Suizhong stood in Huangcun, looking around.
It is said that a very strong old pagoda tree can be seen from the four positive roads on all sides, and there is a tree hole in the old pagoda tree. After entering inside, you can enter the ghost market—that is, the tree hole is Entrance to the Ghost City.
Zong Suizhong heard the sound of several buses honking, and after looking around, he saw ghost cars "clicking" coming on different roads, and the distances between the places where different ghost cars stopped and Huangcun were also different. This may be because different roads have different stops in Huangcun?
Many ghosts got out of the car and ran around one after another, seeming to be looking for the existence of the old locust tree.
The old locust tree was very ordinary at first, but it probably felt a large amount of ghost energy, a thin old tree suddenly rose upwards, became thicker in all directions, and gradually turned into a giant tree.
Ruan Jiao: "It's right there."
Zong Suizhong: "Let's go."
—It is indeed very conspicuous, very thick.
There were many ghosts, and they all went towards the old tree one after another.
In the blink of an eye, there were already ghosts crowding ghosts in front of them, and many ghosts were so crowded that they were doubled with people. The ghost that was doubled stretched out its hand to grab and swallow the ghost, and immediately became weaker and quiet as a chicken.
Next, the ghosts understood the reason for queuing.
Ruan Jiao and Zong Suizhong looked at each other, walked over slowly, and lined up behind many ghosts.And when they stood still, a group of ghosts wanted to follow, but Zong Suizhong was behind Ruan Jiao.
Ghosts: "..."
There was another "whoosh", and they lined up in the queues on both sides of the next door.
Ruan Jiao felt his heart beating a hundred and eighty-he realized that this guy turned his head around to talk, if he hadn't turned it back suddenly, he really wouldn't have noticed!Do you want to be so scary?
Zong Suizhong's expression was also a little strange. He also saw the scene of the paper piercing man turning his head, which was quite horrifying.
