I sell demon meat in the city
Chapter 133 Ghosts Scaring Ghosts
Chapter 133 Ghosts Scaring Ghosts
"what is that?"
The three of them stood still, none of them daring to step forward.
It's not that I'm afraid, it's that there's no need, because it's obvious that the person who ran away was a person.
Dongfang Shuo scoffed, "It's probably just the ghost that other people call haunted. Let's go, this is boring."
The three continued forward. Meng Qi used her divine sense to probe the direction the person had run off in and discovered that about a hundred meters away from them, behind a house, were three people squatting down. They were all dressed in white, holding wigs in their hands, and their faces were painted as white as a whitewashed wall.
The fourth person ran away, panting as he spoke a few words to them. The three of them suddenly stood up, put on their wigs, and then, in pairs, they sneaked towards Meng Qi and the others in two different directions.
Is this an attempt to encircle them?
Meng Qi frowned slightly, not understanding why these ordinary people would do such a thing.
She pulled Dongfang Shuo and Wei Xiaole aside and whispered a few words to them.
The three continued walking forward, using flashlights.
About ten minutes later, as they passed an unfinished two-story building, a white light suddenly flashed, and the three of them turned to look at it simultaneously.
As expected, a "ghost" dressed in a white dress and with a pale face appeared at the second-floor window.
Meanwhile, opposite the "ghost," in mid-air outside the second-floor window, floats a female ghost with a long tongue sticking out and blood flowing from her eyes, mouth, and nose.
The "ghost" froze, and so did the other ghosts hiding in other places, ready to emerge at any moment. Although they, unlike the "ghost" at the window, could clearly see the female ghost's long tongue and bleeding face.
However, because of the flashlight in Meng Qi's hand, they could clearly see that the female ghost was floating in mid-air and her hair was long enough to reach her ankles, which was completely different from the wigs they had bought.
"Aaaaaah! A ghost!"
After a few seconds of stunned silence, the "ghost" in the window reacted, screamed, and turned to run away.
Five seconds later, the female ghost in mid-air disappeared.
But it reappeared in an instant, this time in front of one of the other three. Although its appearance was slightly different from the long-tongued female ghost, it was similar, except that it had no facial features below its forehead, so they probably couldn't tell it apart.
What was unexpected was that the person fainted.
Dongfang Shuo, Meng Qi, and Wei Xiaole were all speechless. With this kind of guts, you still dare to impersonate a ghost?
Dongfang Shuo threw out two more frightening talismans, and in the end, one of the two fainted and the other ran away.
There were four people in total; two ran away and two got dizzy.
Wei Xiaole had no choice but to call the police, and then he and Dongfang Shuo each took one of them to the entrance of Happy Valley.
Twenty minutes later, a police car arrived with sirens blaring, along with the developers of Happy Valley.
If something happens on his turf, the police will definitely notify the boss to come and take a look.
Wei Xiaole showed his identification to the police, briefly explained why the three of them had come, and even took the police to see the bear footprints. In the end, he explained that they had run out of clues after chasing the bear to this location, and that the bear had escaped.
Then, by chance, I ran into these four people.
It was perfectly reasonable, and the police had no suspicions whatsoever; they even saluted the three of them.
It was late at night, how could it be easy for three children? At this moment, the two who had fainted from fright woke up. The scene just now had terrified them, and they immediately told the police everything as soon as they asked the first question.
It turns out that this was all the work of a friend of Mr. Hu, the owner of Happy Valley. The reason was that Mr. Hu had promised to sell him the demon meat but failed to deliver and instead sold it to someone else.
This person harbored a grudge and, taking advantage of the incident at Happy Valley, hired a group of people to pretend to be ghosts and cause damage every now and then, forcing the project to stop. Then, he took the opportunity to spread rumors, saying that Boss Hu was disregarding human life, that he would not compensate workers who died, and that the wronged spirits of the workers would not rest.
Mr. Hu had suspected that someone was up to no good, but after several investigations, he found nothing. In addition, every time the construction team was changed, the foreman would see the "ghost" with his own eyes. Over time, no one dared to take on the projects here.
As a result, Mr. Hu lost a lot of money.
Now that the truth has finally come out, he was so angry that he couldn't help but curse.
Seeing that they had nothing to do with it, Meng Qi and the other two said goodbye to the police and left.
Upon entering Qingshui Town, Wei Xiaole parked the car by the roadside and moved the items from the trunk to the back seat. Then, Meng Qi raised her hand, and the green Jeep suddenly sank down. The trunk, which had looked quite spacious, was immediately filled with the body of a black bear, with one arm and one leg dangling outside.
There are only a few steps left, so there's no need to put the lid on anymore.
As the car pulled up to the gate of the compound, Zhang Jinwu and Fu Dong came out.
Under the dim streetlights, the two saw the huge black body behind them, and their eyelids twitched involuntarily.
These three little things
Therefore, Zhang Jinwu agreed to let them head towards the Grand Canyon the next day to search for demons along the way.
But they repeatedly emphasized that one must not enter the Grand Canyon without permission.
The next day, after breakfast, Mengqi went to Jiaolongtan to see Xiaolong before leaving, while Wei Xiaole and Dongfang Shuo checked the car, refueled it, and organized the items and supplies for the journey.
With everything prepared, the two drove to the gate and waited for Xiao Qi.
"Can't you all be reasonable? This used to be my home, the house is still here, why can't I go in? We came all the way back from out of town to pay our respects to our ancestors, how are we supposed to do our worship if you won't let us in?"
As soon as the car stopped, before Wei Xiaole could even get out, she heard a dispute coming from the gate.
What do you mean?
People from Sanshui Village?
All those who stayed in the village back then have died. Of those who went out and were lucky enough to survive, none of them have survived except for him. Over the years, apart from a few descendants occasionally visiting the cemetery in Sanshui Village to pay their respects during Qingming Festival, not a single one of them has ever wanted to return to the village.
After all, the village was truly gone, and the houses had been almost completely destroyed by the monsters. Only a few intact buildings remained, but since the settlement was built here, no one would go inside.
After he turned off the engine and got out of the car, he heard his comrade on guard call him, "Xiaole, come here for a moment. He said he is from Sanshui Village."
The other party thought that Wei Xiaole was also from Sanshui Village, so they asked him to come and see if they knew him, and then persuade him to leave quickly, because this place is not a place that ordinary people can just enter.
Upon hearing the guard's shout, the middle-aged man who had been arguing with him suddenly froze, then abruptly turned to look at Wei Xiaole.
"Xiao, Xiaole?"
Wei Xiaole stopped after walking a few steps in their direction. He looked indifferently at the middle-aged man who was staring at him with wide eyes and was obviously agitated. Then he glanced at the middle-aged woman and a young man who looked about his age standing behind him.
All three were carrying things, including two plastic bags containing gold ingots, which could be clearly seen through the open bags.
“You know Wei Xiaole? That’s perfect. Xiaole, could you explain to him again that I’ve already explained that the villagers of Sanshui Village built a cemetery in the south. If they want to pay respects to their elders, they can go there to burn paper money. They don’t need to go into the village, and there’s no village anymore anyway.”
Good afternoon!
