An Ling looked steadily at the child in Guo Zichou's arms and found that the child had miraculously opened his eyes. His ink-black pupils dilated and his eyes stared at her closely.

An Ling felt uncomfortable under the child's sinister gaze. She walked a few steps to the side, out of its sight, and hurriedly said to Guo Zichou, "Senior Guo, please let it go! It can still move!"

Guo Zichou only felt that his arm was tightly gripped by the child's small hand. He looked down and saw that the thing was slowly raising its head with its mouth wide open, trying to get closer to him.

Oh my god, this is haunted!

An Ling pulled out the Xiangzhu, ready to stab the ghost to death with a sword, but was stopped by Guo Zichou. An Ling looked at Guo Zichou in disbelief and said, "Senior Guo, this is..."

"I know, it's not a human, it's a red evil." Guo Zichou's face was heavy, and his rock-hard arm muscles trembled, and he shook the red evil down, then grabbed its belly and clamped it around his waist.

Hongsha seemed to find it very amusing and laughed and babbled. Apart from its peculiar appearance, the rest of it was the same as an ordinary human child.

Guo Zichou took a deep breath and slapped Hongsha on the forehead! Hongsha fell down and hung softly on Guo Zichou's waist.

Guo Zichou threw the ghost child, or simply called it Red Evil, to An Ling, said just "help me watch it first", and walked towards the group of people lying on the ground.

An Ling was startled by his sudden attack, and hurriedly picked up the ghost child. Touching the cold ghost child, she felt disgusted and weird. She had never held a child before, and now the first time she held a child, she was holding a time bomb!

She placed her hands on the ghost child's back and thighs. The ghost child was cold all over, as if he had been kept in a freezer for ten days or half a month. He felt very smooth and elastic, like plasticine, a soft ball, spread out in her arms.

If it was a living child, it would be fine and I could even barely praise it as cute, but this is a dead child!

An Ling didn't dare to move at all, waiting anxiously for Guo Zichou to come back. She stood on tiptoe and looked around, only to see Guo Zichou slapping everyone on the ground on the head. Somehow, that group of people slowly woke up, sat up and looked around in confusion.

"Wasn't I just eating pork elbow? Why am I here?"

"Damn it! Where did the young lady go? Is this a shady shop?"

Most of the people were having their first time at a banquet and had no idea of ​​the twists and turns involved. They just thought that this red banquet was just a "fairy banquet" held on a regular basis with only benefits and no harm. Little did they know that these so-called small profits were just baits to lure them.

Guo Zichou leaned his huge sword on the ground and said in a cold voice: "It is indeed a black shop, and it is specially used to deceive people like you who love leisure and hate work and always dream of pie in the sky!" After that, he looked at Jin Gunyuan who was in a daze, pointed at him and said: "You can ask this guy about the inside story of the Ghost Banquet."

When Jin Gunyuan saw that he was being pointed at and everyone was staring at him, he collapsed instantly, holding his head and crying, "Don't look at me! Don't look at me!"

No one paid any attention to him and just let him go crazy for a while. Then he took a deep breath, lowered his head, and confessed what he knew.

It turns out that this wealthy man who was known as "Golden Half of the City" was just a gangster who couldn't even afford a meal ten years ago!

That day, he, like An Ling, accidentally broke into the venue of the red banquet, and was very lucky to survive to the end, and obtained the wealth, fame and status promised to him by the paper man shopkeeper. However, there is no free lunch in the world, and such a generous gift naturally has its corresponding reward, which is the reason why Jin Gunyuan said those inexplicable words to An Ling when he sat at the table.

Rather than saying that you have to pay to dine here, it is better to say that you owe it money. One day, the paper man will bring his companions to ask the guests for "rewards".

"Wuwuwuwu... I was bewildered at the time. I don't know why I actually agreed to their request. As a result, the next day, a fire broke out in the city for no apparent reason, and a full 120 people died! A hundred and twenty! In just a moment of my thought, they took away a hundred and twenty lives! How can I live in peace?"

Guo Zichou shouted: "Who are they? What conditions did you agree to?"

"They asked me to leave the city at 3 a.m. and then go home as usual. I thought it wasn't a difficult task and they didn't ask me to kill anyone, so I agreed." Jin Gunyuan hurriedly looked up to defend himself. Facing the disgusted looks of the crowd, he quickly added, "If I don't agree, they will take back all my property and tell the Land Surveying Bureau in the capital everything I've done over the years! That's the Land Surveying Bureau! If you fall into their hands, you will be neither alive nor dead! I, I just want to save my life!"

Guo Zichou kicked Jin Gunyuan in the chest and said viciously, "Stop talking nonsense. Who are 'they'? Tell me now!"

Jin Gunyuan hurriedly said: "Hey uncle, let me tell you, their name is the Blood Demon Sect, and they only attack at night...ah!" Before he could finish, Jin Gunyuan screamed and fell to the ground. Dark red dirty blood slowly flowed out of his seven orifices. He was already deader than dead!

Guo Zichou cursed angrily, probed Jin Gunyuan's inner body, and said in a deep voice: "This is a kind of curse! If Jin Gunyuan tells anything about the Blood Ghost Sect, his internal organs will be destroyed and he will die of bleeding from all seven orifices."

He leaned dejectedly against the giant sword, his fists clenched tightly, his body shaking constantly. Damn it, the clue was broken again. When will he be able to kill all these monsters and avenge A Miao!

When everyone saw how cruelly Guo Zichou died, and remembered that they had also eaten food from the ghost banquet, they quickly stretched out their wrists, hoping that Guo Zichou could help them check whether there was such a curse.

Guo Zichou was in no mood to care about this group of people. He said coldly, "What does it have to do with me? I'm not some hero who likes to uphold justice. I just saved you for the sake of convenience. If you want to know if you have a curse, go find a doctor or a Taoist priest. Don't bother me!"

After saying this, he drew out the giant sword, tied it behind his back again, called for An Ling to follow him, and walked away without looking back, leaving behind a group of idle people in the martial arts world looking at each other in bewilderment and the messy wreckage in the distance.

……

An Ling held the child and quickly followed Guo Zichou. It was not until Guo Zichou started a fire in the cave that the atmosphere seemed to ease a little.

Guo Zichou felt around and found that there was no wine. He scratched his head in annoyance and asked An Ling awkwardly, "Hey, is there any wine?"

An Ling has a shortcoming of liking to steal things. She was able to steal a batch of gunpowder from the military camp before, and she could also steal the shopkeeper's collection of fine wine in front of him at the ghost banquet.

An Ling took out a pot of wine from the big bag she was carrying and shook it towards Guo Zichou. It was the extremely precious amber wine on the table. She smiled and said, "I have wine, do you have a story?"

Guo Zichou cursed, grabbed the amber wine, took a few gulps, and then said with a smile: "It's really good wine! It's worth it!"

An Ling looked at Guo Zichou with a smile, stood up, bowed to him earnestly, and said: "I am An Ling, a disciple of the Three Immortals of the East China Sea, and also a disciple of your former elder Yu Lang. An Ling, meet Senior Guo!"

Guo Zichou quickly pulled An Ling up, smacked his lips, and said disdainfully: "That guy actually accepted a scholarly apprentice like you. The world is really going downhill! Come on, why are you still calling me senior? It doesn't sound fun at all! Come on, little An Ling, call me uncle!"
