Folklore: The baby starts the game, and the mother takes off her painted skin

Chapter 103 My mother asked me to ask a question (1000 monthly tickets plus more)

Master Ma was not dead, but from the look of his face, he looked very bad, so bad that even Liu Bai thought he was about to die.

But even so, Master Ma's tiger eyes were still wide open, staring at him intently, and then he said in a calm voice:

"Where did you come from?!"

"Our place is owned by that old wolf. If you come here to intercept it, aren't you afraid that you can't defeat it?!"

Things have come to a point where there is almost no way out.

Master Ma was still trying to sow discord between the strange creature in front of him and the old wolf, hoping that after he died, the strange creature would be able to fight with the old wolf.

Even if I can't kill him, at least half-crippled him will be fine.

But to his disappointment, after he said this, the creature didn't react at all and just stared at him.

Yes, Liu Bai just looked at Master Ma lying on the bed in front of him.

It is said that if a person's spirit is lost, he will age very quickly.

He also didn't expect that after not seeing Mr. Ma for more than a year, he would have aged to his current state.

His originally gray hair had almost turned completely white, and his face was full of wrinkles.

Those bright and sharp tiger eyes are now much cloudy.

If it weren't for the fact that he still had blood and energy in his body, and that his life force was still burning, he would actually be no different from those old men in the town.

This time, the injury was in his lower abdomen.

The weather was hot, so Liuzi didn't cover him with a quilt, but just covered him with clothes. However, the clothes had already been stained red with blood and also emitted a slight foul smell.

It was obvious that the wound had festered.

The reason why Mr. Ma can live to this day is all thanks to his foundation and physique as a ghost walker.

Seeing this appearance, Master Ma became more and more confused. Based on his many years of experience in ghost business, he knew that the thing in front of him was indeed a real weird creature.

If it wants to deal with me...even if I were in my prime, I wouldn't be able to withstand a single punch from it.

But why doesn't it take action?
If I don't do anything, why is it coming here?
Soon, Master Ma knew what the creature was going to do, because he saw it take out a strip of cloth from its arms, then walk to the candle and light it, and finally throw the burning strip of cloth under his bed.

With Mr. Ma's experience in ghost travel, how could he not know what this strange creature is doing?
This was clearly an attempt to exorcise the evil spirit from himself... As the cloth strips burned out, Master Ma felt a sense of relief all over his body.

At this moment, Master Ma knew that he would not die this time!

It’s just that this weird thing… He was lying on the bed and suddenly turned his head to look, but where was this weird thing?
In the entire room, there was no other figure except Liuzi, who was lying on the ground and his life or death was unknown.

If he hadn't seen the wooden door broken into pieces and lying on the ground, Mr. Ma would have thought that he was suffering from hysteria and was imagining things.

In a trance, Master Ma remembered something.

He remembered that when he came back from the city today, Liuzi seemed to have taken him to stop at Liujia Alley for a while...

Thinking of this, Mr. Ma just guessed something, but didn't dare to think too much about it.

Some things are just right if you do them just right.

He smiled bitterly, lifted up his clothes, and looked at the hideous wound on his abdomen and the rotten flesh.

He picked up a dagger from the side, then suddenly lit his life fire, placed the dagger on the life fire and burned it repeatedly, then began to cut the meat.

Seeing that Master Ma was so cruel to him, Liu Bai couldn't bear to watch it any longer.

Finally, he looked at Liuzi on the ground again, and only left after he was sure that he was just a big bastard and knocked him out but not to death, and then he left.

Now that Mr. Ma’s safety problem has been solved, the next thing to deal with is the old wolf.

Liu Bai didn't know where the old wolf was.

But it didn't matter. He headed north, and after finding a "ground worm" and asking for directions from a "bluebird", he quickly located the old wolf's location.

Speaking of this old wolf, he and Liu Bai are old friends.

It was just his first time entering the mountains. When he followed Madam Liu to look for the skinning ghost, he had seen the old wolf from afar.

I didn’t expect that I would have to take the initiative to look for it now... Thinking about it, Liu Bai jumped onto a hill.

This hill has no name, but the hill opposite it has a name, and its name is Laobeipo.

The name was given by the people of Huangliang Town because this old wolf often appears on this mountain.

At this moment, there was only a small valley between Liu Bai and Laobeipo.

If he wanted to get through, it would only take a flap of his wings.

At such a close distance, if this old wolf was really in this den, it would definitely be able to feel Liu Bai's breath.

The realms of the two are not much different, plus Liu Bai came here like this.

The meaning is almost self-explanatory, but... the old wolf did not show up.

It’s as if it’s not on this mountain.

Xiao Cao, who was hiding in Liu Bai's cloak, poked his head out at the right time and said, "Sir, this old wolf is the most cunning and cowardly."

Liu Bai naturally knew this.

The wolf and the wolf are in cahoots... It means that this wolf has very short front legs and cannot walk at all. It can only lie on the wolf's back and let the wolf carry it.

In the wolf pack, this wolf-dog plays a role like a military advisor.

It is extremely treacherous and cunning, so... it is understandable that it does not show up, because it is afraid of death.

But Liu Bai didn't give in. He flapped his wings and glided across the small valley and reached the top of the old slope.

The top of the mountain is filled with a foul smell, and even a forest cannot grow there. There is a stone house built in the center of the mountain. All around the stone house are various furs. Some of them are just like the ones Liu Bai saw in the city, and their eyeballs can even move.

As soon as he arrived here, Liu Bai sensed the aura of several evil spirits on the hill.

There was a shadowy figure in the house, a peregrine falcon hovering high above, and a black-necked snake coiled in the grass on the back hill a little further away. It was a serious evil spirit, probably the lackey of this old man.

Liu Bai was too lazy to look for it. He stepped into the stone house and grabbed the black shadow's neck. It was not until this moment that he could see clearly.

This black shadow was a ghost, a scabby ghost at that, and it emitted a foul odor all over its body. Liu Bai felt that his hands were contaminated just by grabbing it.

So he was very annoyed and just used a lot of force to crush the scabby ghost's head.

In just one move, several green beads fell to the ground.

Feeling the violent power in himself, Liu Bai couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

Sure enough, it’s fun to be an evil spirit!
I remember that when I was in the Yin Vein, an evil ghost behind me forced me into a desperate situation.

But now?

A scabby ghost with similar strength couldn't even withstand my attack...

He picked up the green beads on the ground and went out.

The black snake that was originally hiding behind the stone house has fled for its life.

While running away, he was also calling out to other ghosts, and his mouth kept making sharp noises.

"The wind is tight, pull!"

As soon as it made a sound, all the evil spirits on Laobei Hill started to move.

Liu Bai glanced at the peregrine falcon above his head and found that it was heading southeast.

Liu Bai did not rush to chase it, but first looked for the black-necked snake. While passing through the woods, he grabbed its tail and pulled it hard before the black-necked snake could drill a hole.

This thing... is a mountain spirit.

Eating it can increase qi and blood, and it tastes delicious, so it is a favorite of many meat eaters.

Liu Bai had no intention of missing this opportunity.

I know many tricks of the carnivores, but I have no one to practice them on... This is an insult to the carnivores!
So after Liu Bai pulled it out, he didn't rush to do anything, but grinned and asked, "Where did the old wolf go?"

The black-banded snake was held at its vital point and dared not move. Besides, mountain spirits and evil spirits were always timid.

So the black-necked snake had no intention of taking on the responsibility.

"Early on, when the king just entered the mountain, the wolf king rode away on the wolf king."

Without even waiting for Liu Bai to continue asking, the black-banded snake blurted out everything.

"The wolf king... no, that old wolf went to the northwest. It has a hiding place in Wozi'ao, a very deep hole in the ground. It must be there."

"But the cave actually has an exit. I accidentally discovered it when I was digging the hole. Even if the king finds the cave, the old wolf will definitely escape from that exit."

Looking at this black-banded snake who was so aware of the situation, Liu Bai felt a little hesitant about where to take action for a moment.

Perhaps because the "king" in front of him didn't say anything, the black snake quickly said, "Little snake can lead the way for the king, lead the way."

"Hurry up!"

Liu Bai kicked the black-necked snake away. The latter was not afraid but happy, and said quickly: "My king, please follow the little snake."

Liu Bai followed, and Xiao Cao's voice rang in his mind.

"This is not a snake spirit, this is clearly a flatterer."

"Hehe, this black-banded snake that sells out its master for fame and fortune, you must kill it later, young master."

"..."

Listening to the grass's mumbling.

Liu Bai followed the black-banded snake all the way to the northwest. After crossing several mountains, he saw a cliff with a waterfall in front of him.

When they got here, the black-necked snake said cautiously: "My lord, the cave is on the hillside in front of this cliff, but the exit is in the middle of this waterfall."

"If you go forward, my lord, the old wolf will definitely escape from the exit at the back."

Liu Bai looked around. A cunning rabbit has three burrows... Now it seems that this cunning wolf also has three burrows.

It's not difficult to kill it, the main thing is how to prevent it from escaping.

Liu Bai couldn't help but wonder, how would he respond if his mother were here?

If my mother were here, I'm afraid she would just say a word and this old wolf would obediently come out of the cave and die.

Just like the skinned ghost back then.

Although I don't have my mother's abilities, as her only child, I can't bring shame to her.

So... Liu Bai grabbed the Bidens thorn grass that he had caught on the way, and the juice of the Bidens thorn grass immediately fell on the head of the black-necked snake.

"Your Majesty, you..."

Without waiting for it to speak, Liu Bai picked it up with one hand, then inserted its tail into its mouth and squeezed it hard.

The black-necked snake died instantly.

But after it died, it did not turn into a Yin bead, but retained its original appearance.

The carnivore's method really worked.

Liu Bai held the black-banded snake and walked forward a few steps, and then the ghost body retreated and turned into a human form.

He lit the life fire, cut through the mountains and cleared a path, all the way to the foot of the cliff and beside the river, killed the snake, made a fire, and started roasting.

Until the aroma of meat filled the air, Liu Bai said without turning his head:
"My mother asked me to ask you a question. She asked you whether you want to die or live."
