Hundred Ghosts

The watchman sat slumped on the ground, staring in horror and despair at the figure approaching him step by step.

It was the body of a very strong man, wearing only unlined clothing, his arms were muscular and visible, and there were many whip marks on his chest. This man was the head of a bandit on the eastern mountain, and was caught by the court half a month ago. After tortured and confessed, he was beheaded at the vegetable market this afternoon.

He had no head, and blood flowed from his neck until it covered his upper body.

Lin Zi was startled when he saw the headless body, and bravely helped the watchman up, but the headless ghost was already approaching, stopped firmly in front of the two of them, and then grabbed the watchman's head.

Lin Zi pulled the watchman over and rolled him behind the headless ghost, "Ahem...your head is to the east! You go to the east and look for it, don't touch anyone else's!"

The headless ghost stood up slowly, stayed in front of them for a while, and then walked eastward.

The watchman was so frightened that he almost passed out, Lin Zi dragged him to the west, "Get up—I tell you, listen carefully, don't run west for three days... No, it's best not to go out , otherwise I will meet him again, do you know?"

"I, I, I... I get it!"

"Where is your home? I'll take you back."

"Good good..."

"You go by yourself! I can't pull you!"

"My legs are weak..."

"..."

Helping the watchman to walk around the corner of the street, he happened to meet He Huai who was chasing him. He looked anxious and ran over to Lin Zi and asked, "Are you okay? I just saw a headless ghost, and it scared me to death!"

Lin Zi was also sweating profusely, but he still teased He Huai, "It's just a headless ghost... The general is so timid."

"I'm not afraid of ghosts, I'm afraid you will encounter them!"

Headless ghosts are not much better than painted skin ghosts, and they are also very scary. They are ghosts whose heads were beheaded during their lifetime.

After death, the body must be intact, that is, the whole body must be kept.If the body cannot be found, a clothes tomb should be made, or a head made of wax, wood or stone.Because headless ghosts will look for their own heads everywhere, looking for round, head-like stones, balls, or watermelons to use as heads, and sometimes they will wring off other people's heads and put them on their own head.

When encountering this kind of ghost, usually tell it a random direction to trick it to find the head, and just don't go in this direction for three days. It belongs to the category of ghosts that are easy to deceive.

Lin Zi remembered this kind of scary ghost very clearly.

"It's okay, it's okay, you go back quickly and take a bath with wormwood to get rid of bad luck."

The watchman's voice was soft, "Okay...okay..."

After sending the watchman back again, Lin Zi was so sleepy that he just wanted to go back to sleep, but when he passed by Mr. Qian's house, he was awakened instantly by a strong, even stinky, bloody smell.

He looked at He Huai, who nodded and pulled him over the outer wall.

The smell of blood became stronger, and the stench was really unpleasant!There is a feeling that someone died and left the house smelly and moldy.Lin Zi endured his nausea and walked forward slowly. He Huai suddenly grabbed his waist, wrapped him in his arms, and motioned him to look at the shadowed place under the corner of the wall.

The place was pitch black, nothing could be seen, and the surrounding was eerily quiet, when Lin Zi suddenly heard the sound of chewing.

It sounded like a wild animal tearing apart meat and swallowing it contentedly.

Lin Zi shuddered, He Huai reached out and touched the back of his neck to comfort him, and then took out a fire bag from his arms.

I lit a fire bag and threw it fiercely in that direction, the flame was blown extremely high by the wind, and the light brought up made everything in front of my eyes clearly presented.

A humanoid monster is biting a person's stomach. The person is dead, and the contents of the stomach are bleeding out, and the humanoid monster screams in horror when it encounters flames. The sound is like a throat that has been scalded He screamed as if being pinched out again.

The flames quickly filled the monster's body, and He Huai took out a small bottle of black dog blood from Lin Zi's body and sprinkled it on. The fire grew stronger and stronger, and an unpleasant stench filled the air.

It was a double torture of sight and hearing. Lin Zi pushed Lin Zi away, couldn't help but vomited out his lunch, and at the end he started to vomit acid water.

He Huai patted him on the back, "Are you okay?"

Lin Zi held his stomach and waved his hands weakly.

Soon, the flames burned out, leaving a handful of black bones on the ground.

An unpleasant stench permeated the entire Qian Mansion, and soon woke up the servants and Master Qian and Mrs. Qian and recruited them.

However, there are too few servants in his family, there is only one housekeeper, two maidservants, and two servants, all of whom are very old.

Lin Zi suddenly remembered that in the restaurant that day, he vaguely heard someone saying that something happened to the servants in Qian's mansion when they returned home. I don't know what happened. When the family touched their stomachs, it was actually empty!

But Mr. Qian has a lot of money, so he can take care of it in a few clicks, but no one dares to work in his house except the old servants.

"What... what's going on?" Master Qian said in a panic.

A bold servant took a picture of the torch in the corner. In the corner, Zhang Ji's eyes were terrified, his stomach was half empty, and his whole body was stained with blood!

Madam Qian covered her face and wept.

Lin Zi stepped forward and asked, "Are you even alarmed? What about your daughter?"

Madam Qian stared at him resentfully, "..."

In fact, the real Miss Qian died at the beginning of last year, and she has been pretending to be a painted skin ghost for more than a year.

Mrs. Qian found out that something was wrong with her daughter at the beginning of the year. A maid in her daughter's house suddenly asked her to be fired and go home, even without wages.Madam Qian felt very strange, her daughter was gentle and dignified, and treated her very well, there was no need for them to do this.

Madam Qian went to her daughter's room to have a look. As soon as she entered, she could smell a strong smell of blood, but her daughter was gone. She waited in the room until midnight before her daughter came back.

She smelled fishy.

She didn't care, so she asked her daughter to take more baths.

The next day, the servant girl's family came to make trouble. A girl who was fine when she left last night had her skin ripped apart and her stomach was emptied by something.

Madam Qian was so frightened that she almost fainted.

But along the way, there were people who could prove that the maid was fine when she left, so it shouldn't be the matter of Qian's house. There was also a son in that family who lacked money to marry a wife, so Master Qian spent money to privateize the matter.

However, one day later, an errand boy also wanted to go back. Madam Qian thought he was afraid, and after a few words of comfort to no avail, she had to let him go. Who knew that the second person who went back would have the same consequences.

The skin was peeled off and hung on the body, and the stomach was emptied.

This is a terrible situation, the family members are panic-stricken, they all say that the house is weird, they leave one after another, only a few old servants who have been in the Qian family since they were young, leaving is a dead end.

Afraid of further accidents, Mrs. Qian hurriedly asked the Taoist priest to come and take a look, and the Taoist pointed directly at Miss Qian's room.

There are ghosts haunting it!

Painted Skin Ghost is quite clever, it ate those servants, but left Qian Mansion in disguise to reduce others' suspicion of Qian Mansion...or, to put it another way, suspicion of it.

Facing Mrs. Qian who was crying so badly, it slyly defended, saying that he was Miss Qian, and crying pitifully at Mrs. Qian.

Madam Qian was only her daughter, and she could bear this, so she asked the Taoist priest to lock it up in the room, and not allow it to go out to harm people, nor allow others to get close to it.

The Painted Skin Ghost, who hadn't eaten human flesh for a long time, had another idea. It said that it wanted to get married when it was old, but it didn't want to leave its parents and wanted to find someone who could marry.

Its docile appearance moved Madam Qian, and Madam Qian agreed.

Through the wedding, it coaxed the groom to destroy the formation set up by the Taoist priests, and then ate him.

Afterwards, I cried to Mrs. Qian, saying that it was so hungry that it had to eat human flesh once every three months or it would starve to death...

Madam Qian acquiesced, and after three months, she found a homeless man to clean it up and send it to its room.

It emptied the homeless man's stomach on his wedding night, wrapped his skin and sent the rest to a mass grave.

It pretended so well that even if the formation was withdrawn, it would obediently stay in the room. Sometimes Madam Qian would come over to see it and tell it something about the outside world, and it would even act coquettishly with Madam Qian.

It looked like a mother and daughter with such a good relationship.

It's just that this time it was too hungry, Zhang Ji was wandering around in front of its room again, it couldn't hold back, it didn't even wear Miss Qian's skin, and used its real body to push people into the corner and eat them.

The man was terribly bad, and tasted good too.

But He Huai and Lin Zi came over at this time.

Madam Qian wept bitterly while holding the black bones, "Daughter...it's all my mother's fault for not protecting you well..."

Lin Zi couldn't help frowning, "Think clearly, your daughter is not it! She was killed by it!"

Ghosts are so confusing to people, if Madam Qian is sober, she should have poured a pot of black dog blood on it after knowing that it killed her daughter, and then threw a fire bag.

Master Qian grabbed her, threw the black bones on the ground, and said with tears in his eyes that he was too busy on weekdays. After so long, he didn't even know that his daughter had been transferred...

Lin Zi asked to visit Miss Qian's boudoir, and Master Qian agreed.

Ms. Qian's boudoir has a stench and looks bright and bright. In fact, there are a lot of bird, cat, dog and mouse fur piled up in the corner. It must be that she was hungry and caught the nearby small animals and ate them. .

And on the big bed on the side of the boudoir, a beautiful woman's skin was spread out on it.

It was a beautiful face that couldn't be painted with the best paintbrush, with slender willow eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes, which looked like lotus flowers on the water, and with a little makeup, it looked beautiful but a little charming.

Mrs. Qian stumbled forward, stared at the beauty skin, covered her head and screamed and passed out. Master Qian didn't have the courage to step in.

But Zhang Ji's body was left alone, and no one cared about it.

Lin Zi took off his coat and covered the corpse. Lin Zi yawned and said, "Birds die for food, man dies for wealth... Oh, this is really true..."

"Isn't that what you people are like?"

Lin Zi rubbed his eyes and muttered, "What do you call you people... aren't you a human?"
