Su Chi has always been thankful that she can't see ghosts, but this kind of luck has never been so strong as it is today, especially when she saw Xiaolong's face, she confirmed this even more.

If you can't see it, you will have fewer troubles.

Xiaolong's expression was very ugly, she was always staring at the night market outside the glass door, her eyes were straight, her lips were tightly pressed, and her cheeks were pale.

Su Chi couldn't bear it, so he gently held Xiaolong's hand.

Xiao Long turned his head to look at her, and smiled bleakly.

Su Chi asked, "Are you afraid?"

Xiaolong reluctantly shook his head.

Su Chi knew she was lying, but she didn't intend to expose her. She squeezed Xiaolong's hand a little harder, and looked out of the glass door and window with her.

The wind and rain were raging on the street. Not to mention pedestrians, not even a car was seen. I don’t know which circuit had a problem. Two rows of street lights flickered one after another, and then one after another went out. The remaining shops on both sides of the street are still providing sporadic lights.

Other than that, Su Chi couldn't see anything.

On the same street, what Xiao Cage sees is completely different from hers.

On the same stormy street, street trees compete with the wind, lights and darkness, and people hiding behind doors and windows are also contending with another thing.

Thousands of ghosts.

They are free, floating, aimless but only moving on this street.

They have different faces, men, women, and children. If it weren't for their erratic bodies, the blood flowing on them, and the black holes like dry wells under their pupils, they would look no different from ordinary people.

One ghost is not scary, what is scary is that countless ghosts are all gathered on the street in front of your house, like a Halloween carnival, full of ghosts and winds.

Su Chi suddenly remembered something and asked, "What day is it today?"

As soon as she reminded Xiaolongjing, she counted on her fingers and said without tears: "...today is July and a half, and it is the day when the gates of hell are opened."

When the typhoon meets the Ghost Festival, if there are people who compete with bad luck in this world, Su Zhi feels that they are almost invincible.

"What should we do now?" Su Chi asked, "As long as they don't come in, we'll be fine."

"Well, as long as they don't come in." Xiaolong just finished speaking, but remembered that a ghost had actually entered their supermarket, "Oops!"

Xiao Long turned her head and immediately saw the ghost she had thrown in front of the cash register crawling towards the warehouse on all fours, half of the ghost's body had already slipped through the door.

Xiaolong chased after him in a few steps, grabbed the ghost's legs and was about to pull it out, but when she moved, the ghost's upper body also pulled with strength, Xiaolong raised his head, and screamed "Wow".

The dark and narrow warehouse was full of all kinds of greedy ghosts at some point. These ghosts occupied the entire supermarket warehouse, squatting or standing, or leaning or hanging upside down, or bleeding or turning purple. Xiao Long raised his head, and their empty eyes looked at Xiao Long in unison.

Xiaolong's back felt chilly, and after pulling out the ghost under his hand, he hurriedly closed the warehouse door and slapped his chest in fright, "Oh my god..."

Su Chi stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Cage pushed her away from the warehouse door, took the recaptured ghost, put it on the ground, and asked seriously: "What's the matter with you? Even if the gate of ghosts is wide open, if you don't go back to your respective homes to visit relatives, all of you will gather together." What are you doing on this street?"

Su Chi watched Xiaolong talking to the air, and waited for the next sentence.

"What?" Xiaolong squatted down, facing the ghost and said depressedly: "You and them are not on the same road? Hey, hey, you misunderstood my question. No one cares whether you and them are on the same road or not. What I asked was... ..."

Not knowing what the ghost said, Xiao Cage scratched his hair even more frantically, and said angrily, "That's not what I asked!"

"Xiao Long..." Su Chi interrupted Xiao Long, and said coldly, "Look."

Xiaolong followed the direction indicated by Su Chi and looked towards the glass wall along the street of the supermarket.

Seeing this, her mind was shocked again.

The ghosts who were originally displaced on the street seemed to have been attracted by their supermarket since they didn't know when, they turned around and surrounded the supermarket one after another.

Because there were too many ghosts, the ghosts in the first row leaning against the glass wall were squeezed and deformed by the ghosts behind. The faces of ghosts stuck to the glass, like pancakes of different shapes, ready to be sprinkled at any time. Add black pepper and cumin powder.

The glass wall squeezed by so many ghosts could hardly bear it, and it was making a slight creaking sound. What Su Chi noticed was that the local temperature suddenly dropped due to the gathering of ghosts, resulting in A thin layer of frost formed on the glass wall.

Seeing Xiaolong's expression, Su Chi immediately guessed the scene outside the glass wall, and she pondered: "...Now this is...the zombie siege?"

Xiao Long covered his forehead and said depressedly: "With so many ghosts gathered together, no one knows what will happen next."

"Is there no way to drive them away?" Su Chi asked.

Xiao Long said pitifully, "I've never learned how to exorcise ghosts."

Su Chi stared at the glass wall for a while, and suddenly asked, "Why can't they get in?"

A word reminded Xiaolong, Xiaolong immediately jumped up, climbed onto the long wooden table, and looked into the decorative wooden lattice on the ceiling.

Sure enough, yellow paper talismans were pasted on the four corners of the ceiling separating the wooden boards. The paper talismans were very new and powerful, and they strictly kept the ghosts out of the door.

It seems that it was newly pasted after the supermarket was looted, and it would be pasted on the roof of the supermarket. The whole supermarket has nothing but the store manager.

But when did this chunky and kind old man put the talisman on, Su Chi and Xiao Long didn't notice it at all.

Xiao Long jumped back to the ground and said worriedly: "I don't know if these paper talismans can last all night, as long as they wait until dawn, they will disperse by themselves."

Su Chi nodded, and after a while, she looked at the empty cash register and wondered, "...then why is this ghost only able to get in?"

Xiao Long jumped up angrily, "That's right! Why did it only come in?"

The ghost squatting in front of the cashier silently glanced at Xiaolong, and then his eyes drifted to the rows of dairy products on the shelves.

Su Chi asked Xiaolong, "What does this ghost look like?"

Xiao Long pursed his lips and said, "It's a young man with short hair and a baby face. There is a mole under the corner of his right eye. He is very weak and only has milk in his eyes."

Su Chi thought about it for a moment, and couldn't remember the young man with this appearance who had been buried in this street.

Xiao Long crouched in front of the ghost, puzzled, "You were born a ghost, but you are not afraid of spells. Is this the only spell that doesn't work on you, or is it because you are so gifted that you are not afraid of anything?"

The ghost didn't answer her question.

"It's simple." After Su Chi finished speaking, he walked around to the cash register, bent over and took out a bunch of things, big and small, from the cabinet, and threw them all in front of Xiaolong and the ghost.

Throwing them in front of them were all treasures collected by the store manager over the years to exorcise evil spirits, including mahogany swords, paper talismans, canine teeth, red strings, Buddhist beads, Maitreya statues, Jade Guanyin, and even A cross necklace.

Xiao Cage piled all the things in front of the ghost, but the ghost didn't move.

Su Chi also saw that these things didn't work, but she still had doubts, so she grabbed a red string and stuffed it through the gap in the glass door.

Xiao Cage let out an "ah".

The red rope is like a drop of oil into clear water, within a radius of one meter, all ghosts will be dispersed.

"It's useful!" Xiaolong poked the other red string straight in front of the ghost's eyes.

The ghost blinked and was not affected at all.

Xiao Cage really didn't understand, "Why?"

Su Chi frowned, and murmured, "Could it be...it's not a ghost at all?"

Xiaolong said depressedly: "But it is a ghost, it is exactly the same as a ghost, it cannot be a demon, let alone a beast."

Su Chi didn't understand either.

Xiao Long thought about it, and suddenly made a decision. She stood up, clenched her hands, pulled the ghost up, blocked it in front of her, and walked resolutely to the closed warehouse door.

"...What are you going to do?" Su Chi asked inexplicably nervously.

Xiao Long pursed his lips tightly, the corners of his mouth drooping, his smile was uglier than crying, "Is it a ghost, just try it and you will know."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaolong pulled open the door of the warehouse. Inside, old and young, men and women, dozens of big and little ghosts crowded together. After being alarmed, they looked over collectively again.

"Hmph!" Xiaolong raised his hand and threw the ghost in his hand into the warehouse like a snowball.

Crash, all the ghosts in the warehouse dispersed as if they had seen a ghost.

Xiaolong's eyes widened in shock, but she immediately leaned over and grabbed the ghost like a chicken, lifted it up high, and ran to the glass wall.

The ghosts crowded into pancakes behind the wall saw the ghost, coaxed them, and took three big steps back collectively, not daring to approach it again.

"...Where is this a ghost..." Xiaolong stared dumbfounded and said, "This is clearly an artifact to exorcise ghosts! Zhong Kui among ghosts!"

Su Chi stood behind Xiaolong with his hands raised high, and saw the frost on the glass wall melt instantly, and said in surprise: "It seems that the store manager only needs to enshrine this ghost in the store in the future, and all ghosts will be invulnerable."

Xiao Long looked up at the ghost on his head, and asked, "What's your name?"

Su Chi waited for a while, seeing that Xiaolong didn't respond, he asked, "What did it say?"

Xiao Cage said depressedly: "It said it forgot..."

Su Chi was speechless.

Xiaolong put the ghost down, casually took a carton of milk from the container and handed it to it.

The ghost happily took the milk, shrank under the long wooden table, hugged his knees and gurgled milk.

Su Chi stared at the milk box on the ground without speaking.

Xiao Cage got under the table, grabbed the ghost and put it on his head, and said happily, "Let's try your ability to exorcise ghosts!"

"What are you going to do?" Su Chi asked with raised eyebrows.

Xiaolong has already pushed open the door of the supermarket and ran out, the bustling dead ghosts of all colors on the street saw Xiaolong, they all covered their faces in fright and avoided, Xiaolong became very playful, coercing the emperor to command the princes, in front of all ghosts, they pretended to be powerful, so they were very unhappy.

The timid look that was frightened by Hyakki Yaxing at the beginning was gone.

Su Chi stood in the store and looked out. She couldn't see ghosts, so she could only see the white-haired Xiaolong walking back and forth with his arms up like a fool on the rainy night street.

Let people who don't know see it, maybe they will be frightened to death by Xiao Cage.

"Fool..." Su Chi couldn't help laughing, and after laughing, he couldn't help thinking deeply.

In the end, will such a small cage choose to inherit the nine-tailed fox, or eventually become a wolf demon.
