I survive in the weird Liaozhai

Chapter 55 Ghost Infant

So Gu Nian'an asked directly, "Have you ever heard a ghost story?"

Ghost stories, who hasn’t heard of ghost stories? Ghost stories can be found in folk tales or strange stories.

"Master, what do you mean?"

Xu Chongxiao's red eyes also showed a bit of confusion.

So do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?

This…~

Are there really ghosts in this world? Xu Chongxiao had never seen one and didn't know how to answer.

"The Taoist priest has something to say. I am stupid and don't know what the Taoist priest means."

Ugh!

From his expression, I can tell that he doesn't believe in ghosts and gods. This is a bit difficult to deal with.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Nian'an pointed to his eyes.

"My eyes are very special. I can see things that ordinary people can't see."

Then he pointed to the broken sword embedded in a wooden stake not far away.

"Did you see the black mark on the tip of the sword? It exudes a strong aura of death and evil."

Xu Chongxiao looked into Gu Nian'an's eyes, then shifted his gaze towards the wooden stake not far away.

"So the Taoist priest stopped me from touching the tip of the sword in order to save me."

Gu Nian'an nodded gently

"It can't be considered rescue. I don't know what the consequences would be if you were scratched by the tip of the sword."

"So what the Taoist priest means is that the murderer who killed my senior sister is not an ordinary person."

He roughly understood what the Taoist priest said. The thing that killed his senior sister might not be a human, but a ghost. But how could this be possible?

"Yes, not only is it not a human, but if I'm not mistaken, I may even know what that thing is."

Gu Nian'an's words directly interrupted Xu Chongxiao's reverie.

"What is that thing? Please tell me, what exactly killed my sister?"

Xu Chongxiao's eyes suddenly turned fierce, and his voice trembled slightly.

"It's just a guess, I'm not sure yet, but I have another question, is your sister pregnant?"

He was a little concerned about this. The ghost baby had a special liking for children, and adults over ten years old were not on its menu.

Therefore, as long as you are not unlucky enough to bump into its gun muzzle, it is generally not a big problem.

Seeing Xu Chongxiao's face becoming increasingly ferocious, Gu Nian'an felt a little overwhelmed for a moment.

I hope he guessed it right. The probability that this is a ghost baby has increased again.

The veins on Xu Chongxiao's hand holding the spear were exposed, and the murderous intent in his eyes almost burst through his body.

He exhaled lightly, trying his best to suppress the murderous intent that was boiling in his heart, and squeezed out a word from between his teeth.

"Yes"

After hearing Xu Chongxiao's affirmative answer, the last glimmer of hope in his heart was completely shattered.

Alas! The ghost baby is powerful, fast, and as strong as steel with almost no weaknesses. It is a true hexagonal warrior.

In terms of combat power, she is far superior to the Ghost Mother and is very difficult to deal with.

But it had to be dealt with, not because of Xu Chongxiao, but because it feeds on children.

I totally cannot accept this.

Children are the purest and most beautiful creatures in the world. How dare a dog-like creature treat children as food?

As long as he is still a human being, as long as he still has a little bit of humanity, he will definitely blow that damn thing to pieces.

"Ghost baby, I am more than 80% sure that it was that thing that killed your senior sister."

Gu Nian'an's eyes were cold and his tone was chilly. It seemed that he could only say sorry to Sister Hongguan, and he would have to kill his ghost son himself.

"What is a ghost baby? Where is the ghost baby now?"

Xu Chongxiao raised his head and stared at the young man opposite him, with a red light flashing in his eyes.

"The ghost baby is a terrifying ghost that feeds on children under ten years old. It is brutal, cunning and vicious by nature and is extremely difficult to deal with.

I've heard my master mention this thing. The last time it appeared was in Muzhou.

After it caused a large number of casualties in Muzhou, it was finally killed by a wandering Taoist priest. "

“As for where the ghost baby is now, I don’t know either.

I can only tell fortunes, I can’t predict the future, fortune telling can only give general information, it’s impossible to be comprehensive.”

Gu Nian'an is now a little helpless, he also wants to find the ghost baby as soon as possible.

After all, if you let that ghost thing stay out for one more second, one more child might die.

But there are only so many clues here. This is the source of the strange airflow.

The gray and black air currents in other parts of the forest are becoming thinner and thinner, so this place is either the ghost baby's lair.

He stayed here to test the waters.

But it seems to have no effect. It has been here for quite some time. If this is really the ghost baby's lair, it should have reacted long ago.

Or if just a few drops of black blood could cause such an effect, then that would be even more difficult to deal with. The difficulty of the ghost baby might be beyond his imagination.

"Then Taoist priest, is there a way to find it?"

There was a hint of urgency in Xu Chongxiao's voice, and even his body leaned forward slightly.

You know what, he actually had some ideas. After all, the senior from Muzhou had already given him some examples.

The two things "Blood of a Hundred Infants" and "Three Yang Rope" should have a good effect on ghost babies.

It’s just that the “San Yang Rope” is easy to make, it just takes some time.

But as for the "blood of a hundred babies", that would be a bit difficult to deal with. The blood of hundreds of children is not something that can be easily obtained.

"I have some ideas, but they will take some time to prepare."

Hearing this, Xu Chongxiao was slightly relieved. It was good that he had an idea. What he feared most was that the Taoist priest knew about the viciousness of the evil ghost and would no longer care about the matter.

He, Xu Chongxiao, was just a martial artist, and ordinary fights in the martial arts world were still feasible for him.

But when it comes to solving the case and tracking down the murderer, I am unable to do so, not to mention that this matter may be related to ghosts.

Although it was hard for him to believe that an evil ghost could commit crimes.

But the clues along the way, coupled with the Taoist priest's extraordinary qualities, forced him to believe it to some extent. As for the rest, he would witness it with his own eyes.

Gu Nian'an is not a talkative person, and Xu Chongxiao is immersed in hatred and unable to extricate himself. The two of them, with a bonfire, could no longer find common topics and could only silently wait for the sunrise to come.

Time flies like water, and the years pass by in a blink of an eye. The sky gradually brightens, and a red sun rises slowly from the east.

However, this warm sunlight cannot penetrate the coldness and silence of the mountains and forests.

The bonfire had gone out, leaving only the ashes with residual heat. At this time, Gu Nian'an stood up, took out a silk scarf from his arms, and slowly tied it around his eyes.

He was ready to leave. Nothing happened the whole night. It seemed that this place was just a hunting ground for the ghost babies. Waiting any longer would yield no results.

Besides, sitting back and waiting isn't his style. Now that he has made the decision, it's time to do something.

Xu Chongxiao followed him silently, his eyes still bloodshot, revenge for his senior sister was a must.

The Taoist priest in front of him is his only hope for revenge. He will follow him all the way and will not relax for a moment until he avenges his senior sister.

The hatred was fierce, the anger was burning, it ignited his hope for life, but it would also burn him out.

Gu Nian'an once again came to the east gate of Anyang County, and he saw the young gatekeeper again.

At this moment, he was still conscientiously fulfilling his job of guarding the city, but this time he did not stop himself from entering the city.

Yan Xiaoyi saw the suspicious figure again, but after just a glance, he no longer paid attention to it.

He listened to his second uncle's words, but didn't take them to heart. As a gatekeeper, wasn't it his duty to stop suspicious people?

But…~~…

Alas! Now Yan Xiaoyi didn't quite understand the meaning of his goalkeeping.
