Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 190 Fresh Ingredients. (Third Update!)

Both Linghu Yuniang and Shi En were slightly taken aback by the chaotic scene.

But soon, Linghu Yuniang realized that although she couldn't understand what the female ghost was saying, she recognized its appearance as Zheng Que's ghost servant!

Given the current situation, are Zheng Que's ghost servants attacking the ghosts in the Forget-Worry Inn?
However, before Linghu Yuniang could figure out what was going on, Shi En, who was standing next to her, stared intently at the dishes on Miao Xirong and Zuo Baozhi's table, his mouth watering involuntarily. He said urgently and greedily, "I want to have a bite!"

Upon hearing this, the proprietress became even more enthusiastic and immediately replied, "Okay!"

"Master, someone's here to grab a bite."

The burly man who was slaughtering the pig immediately stopped what he was doing, wiping his blade and hands haphazardly under the hem of his robe, and then eagerly came forward, pulling out the nearest chair to invite them to sit down.

Without the slightest hesitation, Shi En immediately sat down.

Linghu Yuniang realized something was wrong and wanted to speak, but her gaze was also firmly drawn to the leftovers, as if her eyes were glued to them, unable to look away.

Soon, Linghu Yuniang also moved her legs and came to Shi En's side, quickly pulled out a chair and sat down.

The burly man walked to Miao Xirong and Zuo Baozhi's table, grabbed a handful of the chicken bones they had left over, and put them on Linghu Yuniang and Shi En's table before continuing to slaughter the pig.

These chicken bones were gnawed into pits and covered in saliva and seasonings, making them look disgusting.

But in the eyes of Linghu Yuniang and Shi En at this moment, it was like a supreme delicacy, full of great temptation!
The two knew something was wrong, but they were still like they were in a nightmare, picking up chicken bones little by little and stuffing them into their mouths.

Just then, Linghu Yuniang suddenly felt a pain in her neck and immediately woke up. She saw that the woman who had hung the landlady from the beam had somehow rushed in front of her, grabbing her neck with both hands, staring at her with a fierce expression, and repeating a few strange syllables.

Linghu Yuniang suddenly realized that Zheng Que's ghost servant must know her and had just saved her life!
In a flash, Linghu Yuniang didn't even have time to break free from Niannu's control. She immediately waved her hand and knocked the chicken bone that Shi En was about to put into his mouth to the ground.

Snapped!
The chicken bone fell to the ground, making a sound that seemed out of place with its shape.

Shi En paused, looked down at the ground, and found that it was not a chicken bone at all, but a blood-soaked severed arm!
The severed arm was dark and thick, clearly belonging to an adult male. Most of the muscle had been eaten away, exposing the white bone in many places. Blood that had not yet fully congealed was still slowly flowing out from the remaining flesh, quickly wetting a patch of floor tiles and emitting a strong, sweet, and pungent smell.

Shi En and Linghu Yuniang's eyes widened instantly.

Shi En was frightened, while Linghu Yuniang's eyes were rolling back because Niannu had pinched her too hard.

Just then, a creaking sound came from the stairs.

Two figures walked down the narrow staircase, one after the other.

※※※

The Forget-Worry Inn, second floor, inside a guest room.

Gazing at the Qi Refining Level 5 cultivator who had been disemboweled and died in the corridor, the remaining ten cultivators in the room fell silent, not daring to utter a sound. The large guest room was instantly plunged into deathly silence.

boom!
At that moment, the door suddenly closed automatically.

The ten cultivators in the room finally came to their senses, and while they breathed a sigh of relief, a great fear also welled up in their hearts.

"What's going on?! Weren't you told that it would be perfectly safe to stay in this guest room?!"

"If I hadn't dodged quickly, I would be the one dead!"

"Who said ghosts can't get in? That giant hand isn't a ghost!?"

"Hey! Think of something quick! Otherwise we'll all die here!"

Hearing the cacophony of curses and seeing their hostile gazes, Shi Shaoshan took a deep breath and hurriedly shouted, "Everyone! This must be an accident!"

"When I last entered this Forget-Worry Inn, something similar happened, but that occurred after I had been in my room for an hour."

“Apart from that giant hand, no other ghostly creature can enter this room.”

"Given the current situation, we absolutely cannot leave here!"

"The bloodstains from that fellow Daoist's death will attract the other ghosts in the inn."

"Now, whenever we go out, we are bound to encounter other ghosts."

"Many of my companions from last time died in the same way!" "Based on my experience, that giant hand will reappear in about an hour."

"In five hours, at most six of us will die."

"But if people go out now, they will die, and those who stay in the guest rooms will also have a hard time surviving."

"If there's only one person left in the guest room, they're basically doomed!"

Seeing how certain Shi Shaoshan was, the people in the room stirred slightly for a moment, but gradually calmed down.

However, just as they quieted down, the door suddenly opened again, and the giant hand reached in once more.

The cultivators' expressions changed drastically, and Shi Shaoshan was equally incredulous.

This time, the giant hand had a clear target, heading straight for an obese cultivator.

The obese cultivator didn't even have time to question Shi Shaoshan before he hurriedly dodged to the side. The surrounding cultivators were also in a panic, desperately trying to hide in the house.

Whoosh...

Before long, the obese cultivator used his movement technique to twist and turn several times, but was still grabbed by the giant hand and forcibly dragged away.

Like the Qi Refining Level 5 cultivator from before, this obese cultivator was dragged out of the guest room and slammed onto the floor of the corridor. The door was left open, and he was disemboweled right in front of everyone else in the room…

"Ahhhh!"

"Ahhh!"

“Help! Ahhhhh…”

The obese monk writhed and screamed in agony, tears streaming down his face.

Soon, his internal organs were removed and he was thrown aside.

Immediately afterward, the giant hand showed no sign of stopping and continued to reach into the room, grabbing at the tallest of the cultivators.

Just like before, the tall cultivator tried his best to dodge, but the room space was only so big. He only managed to delay for a moment before the giant hand grabbed his arms and dragged him out.

The giant hand sliced ​​open the tall monk's neck, bleeding him out as it began to peel off his skin.

"Ahhh... Help... Help me..."

"S-spare me..."

"Help... Ahhhhh..."

A piercing scream erupted again, echoing through the corridor for a long time.

Looking at this scene, Shi Shaoshan exclaimed in horror, "This, this... this is different from last time!"

"This is an accident!"

"Yes! It was an accident!"

"It was definitely an accident!"

However, before Shi Shaoshan could finish speaking, the giant hand had already peeled off the tall cultivator's skin and reached into the room once again.

This time, all the cultivators were horrified to discover that they were unable to move!

It was as if an invisible force had imprisoned them all on the spot, preventing them from even blinking.

The giant hand, without missing a beat, chose Shi Shaoshan, grabbed him and pulled him out the door, twisted off Shi Shaoshan's head, and then squeezed it forcefully!
Gululu...

Warm blood poured out like wine.
