Fox Demon and Ghost

The ghost and the man in red walked side by side on the street paved with bluestone bricks.

Ordinary people can't see ghosts, so they only saw a good-looking man in red, who seemed to be stupid and stubborn, holding a black cloth umbrella, but he didn't shade himself, but left a cloud on the ground on the right hand side. Intense shadows.

In fact, he is holding an umbrella for the ghost beside him.

The ghost is afraid of the sun, so he asks the man in red for a black robe and a black gauze hat. The man in red's hometown is far away, so the ghost said that it is better to go there by himself, and the journey will be faster day and night. .

The man in red readily accepted. He was taking the ghost to the market to buy a carriage and clothes for the ghost. Fortunately, he still had a black cloth umbrella in his luggage to cover the ghost.

The ghost wanted to hold an umbrella by himself and be self-reliant, but he was just a phantom during the day. If the man in red wanted to hand the umbrella into his hands, he had to burn it in advance.

In the end, the clever way to get the best of both worlds is naturally for the man in red to hold an umbrella for the ghost.

It's a pity that the umbrella of the man in red is really small, and the ghost subconsciously avoids the sun, walking further and further inside, until there is nowhere to go and "sticks" to the man in red.If the ghost squeezes in again, half of its body will be submerged in the scarlet letter man's clothes.

The ghost muttered in his mouth, as if he didn't realize that he was "sticking" closely with the man in red, and was only thinking of ways to avoid direct sunlight, "You will buy black clothes and a black gauze hat later. Burn it for me, and call my name three times while burning it, or I won’t receive it.”

The ghost thought for a while and added, "But at night, I exist as a physical body, so you can just hand me the clothes to wear."

The man in red didn't answer the ghost's words immediately, but stared at the back of the ghost's head in a dazed manner, looking down at a section of snow-white nape, the man in red suddenly said irrelevantly, "As long as there is no sunlight , you will exist as a body?"

"correct."

The man in red stretched out his hand and cast a spell to form an enchantment, and the inside of the enchantment was as dark as night in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, the ghost was shocked to see his transparent body return to normal inch by inch. This scene verified the ghost's previous guess—the man in red was not an ordinary person—so the ghost asked, "What did you do?"

"A barrier that blocks the sun." The man in red put away the black umbrella, raised his eyebrows and smiled.

At this time, the ghost's body is actually sticking to the red robe of the man in red. Even though he made the move to hide under the umbrella, now that there is a barrier, there is no need to stick his back to the other side's chest. .

Thinking of this, the ghost's cheeks were slightly hot, and he hadn't been close to anyone for hundreds of years. At this time, the ghost's face suddenly became thinner, and he felt a little uncomfortable. The ghost quietly stepped forward with a foot, trying to stay away from the man.

The man with the scarlet letter raised his lower eyelids, stretched out his arms to wrap around the waist of a ghost who just wanted to escape, and pressed him against his chest, "Don't move around."

"The enchantment is very small, it can only block the incoming sunlight, but not people. I'm afraid you will go outside the enchantment." The man in red explained with an indifferent expression, but exerted a little force on the ghost's arm, as if he was a little loose The other party will flee to the ends of the earth and never leave a trace, "Otherwise, I can't guarantee that you won't be hurt by the sun."

The ghost was terrified, thinking that fortunately the man in red had quick eyesight, otherwise he might have to suffer from direct sunlight.

Although ghosts remain in the world for a long time as an obsession, it is said that if you are exposed to direct sunlight for a long time, your soul will fly away.This is something that ghosts have heard from hearsay, and it has not been verified, but I dare not practice it myself.

The ghost clung to the man in red obediently and cautiously, not even daring to take a step outside.

If the ghost raised its head, it would be able to see the expression of success in the eyebrows of the man in red.

If the ghost takes three steps forward, he will find that he will be knocked back by the barrier, instead of "can't stop people" as the man in red said.

It's a pity that there is no ghost. Except for his feet, he tentatively took every step forward, and the rest of his body remained motionless like a stone sculpture, for fear that he would accidentally break through the so-called "small" enchantment.
