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

Chapter 104: Changes in the Level Ghost Body [Two-in-one]

Xiaocao said this when he saw this old wolf when he first went into the mountains.

This wolf pretended to surrender to Madam Liu, and was very cunning.

So, this old wolf knew his mother, and that night... plus so much time had passed since then.

With this old man's methods, it is impossible that he doesn't know his own identity.

That's why Liu Bai acted this way.

He came openly and roasted its little brother in front of the old wolf.

Given the old wolf's temperament, even if he didn't show up, he would still be observing secretly nearby, trying to figure out what he wanted to do.

So this old wolf can definitely hear what I am saying now.

After saying that, Liu Bai ignored him, peeled off a piece of hot snake meat and put it into his mouth. It was bland and tasteless.

What a pity. I should have brought some spices from home and sprinkled them on the food after it’s roasted. Everything tastes delicious.

But fortunately, these things can increase qi and blood when eaten, so Liu Bai naturally would not waste them.

After tasting that it was cooked, he took off the whole piece of snake meat, blew it to cool it down, and then devoured it in big mouthfuls.

It doesn't have much taste in the first few bites, but if you eat more, you can taste the fragrance.

I have to say, the taste of the monsters is really good.

While eating, Liu Bai suddenly heard a noise behind him, but he didn't turn around.

The old wolf is cautious and timid. Even if it is given the opportunity to attack from behind, it will not dare to do so.

After eating for a while, Liu Bai saw a figure as tall as a person walking out from behind him.

It has the body of a wolf, with thick hind legs and short forelimbs. It stands upright, its fur is shiny dark gray, and its eyes emit a faint green light.

"This Mr. Liu is quite courageous." The old wolf's voice was hoarse, with an inexplicable accent that made people feel irritated.

Liu Bai casually took out a snake thorn from his mouth, threw it into the river, and said nonchalantly:

"I can't help it. My mother said that if anyone dares to bully me, she will kill their entire family."

The expression on the old wolf's face froze and his eyes narrowed. He did not doubt whether this was true or not.

It knew about the Wangjiatun incident.

"Haha, of course I want to live, not die." The old wolf still had that apologetic smile on his face.

"Want to live? Okay, I'll tell you after I finish eating."

The calmer Liu Bai appeared, the less courageous the old wolf was to take action.

"Okay, okay, please eat slowly, sir."

The old wolf stood aside and laughed, then looked around as if searching for something. After a long while, it asked, "Master, did a strange creature follow us into the mountain just now?"

"Oh, that's the one my mother sent to protect me." Liu Bai said casually, then looked up, "What do you want from him?"

"No, no, we work under the queen, but I haven't met her yet." The old wolf said with a smile.

Liu Bai said "Oh" again and continued eating.

Xiao Cao's words echoed in his mind, "Humph, is it worthy of serving the Queen?"

"You want to be my colleague? Bah! This old wolf is not even worthy of carrying my shoes."

Liu Bai couldn't help laughing when he thought about Xiaocao's arrogant look when she said this.

The mountain spirit meat was digested very quickly, so Liu Bai managed to finish the whole black snake meat and was only 80% full.

After eating and drinking, he came to the river to wash his hands and summoned the panel to take a look.

[Name: Liu Bai]

[Identity: Human]

[Realm: Spirit Body]

[Qi and blood: 24.6]

【Spirituality: 25.3】

[Attribute points: 20.2]

The original Qi and blood was 24.3 points. After eating the snake meat, it increased by 0.3 attribute points.

It is equivalent to three days of hard training.

Not bad.

As for these attribute points...they are still a long way from being promoted to the ghost body. Liu Bai is not in a hurry to leave the mountain, so naturally he is not in a hurry to use them.

It's the same if I just keep it here.

If it really doesn't work, just use it on the human panel, at least it can burn the spirit to completion.

After eating everything, Liu Bai sat back in his original seat. The old wolf who had been waiting for a long time seemed to have finally come back to his senses.

It tucked its front paws into its tucked-in clothes and leaned forward slightly, as if to show respect for Madam Liu.

"May I ask, sir, what does the queen want?"

Liu Bai burped and looked up, meeting the old wolf's dark green eyes, but he was not afraid.

He stared at the pendant hanging on the old wolf's neck. The pendant was actually a white wolf's tooth, slightly curved inward and very sharp.

The old wolf noticed Liu Bai's gaze. Without any hesitation, it took off the pendant from its neck with one claw and handed it over.

"This is our first meeting, and I am not prepared. I will consider this as an apology to you, my lord. I will prepare it carefully before presenting it to you."

It was so close that Liu Bai could even smell the stench coming from the old wolf's mouth when it opened.

Suffocating.

"That's not necessary. After all, you have already given me a meeting gift."

Liu Bai said this quietly, and took the wolf fang from the old wolf.

The old wolf also realized that something was wrong. It wanted to escape... but it couldn't, because it found that its front paws were actually grabbed by a ghost hand.

And the "Mr. Liu" in front of him turned out to be a ghost!
The old wolf didn't hesitate at all. He swung his left claw and directly tore off his right claw, escaping with the broken claw!

Liu Bai was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that this old guy would be so cruel.

No wonder he lived so long.

After the old wolf lost its claws, it let out a wolf howl, but the voice was very hoarse, just like the howl of an old wolf before dying.

Then Liu Bai discovered that a strong lone wolf jumped out from the middle of the cliff, and was about to take the old wolf away.

But fast... Liu Bai was even faster. He flapped his wings and almost instantly stopped the lone wolf in mid-air.

He threw his clenched right fist with all his might, and with almost no hindrance, he pierced the lone wolf's head.

It was so easy that even Liu Bai himself was a little surprised. Was it because the evil mountain spirit was too weak, or was it because he was too strong?

Seeing the lone wolf turned into a Yin bead and fell to the ground, Liu Bai kicked the jumping old wolf to the ground again.

The old wolf fell to the ground with a muffled groan, and its whole body curled up into a ball, but it was soon startled again and rushed into the nearby woods.

Unfortunately, its front paws are too short to touch the ground, so it runs very awkwardly.

Liu Bai's body only slid slightly and he was already blocking it.

Seeing this, the old wolf knew that he had no way to escape today, so he stopped struggling, sat down where he was, and grinned bitterly.

"I have served under your majesty, and although I have not achieved any meritorious service, I believe I have never committed any wrongdoings..."

Before it could finish its words, it saw the wolf fang it had just sent out actually fly straight towards it and pierce its forehead.

Then the monster in front of him was stained with the blood from his broken claws and smeared his face with his own blood.

It's like a sacrifice?

Do not!
The old wolf reacted and opened its mouth quickly. In an instant, a huge black shadow stood up from its body.

Its appearance was exactly that of a wolf.

There was a wolf riding on top of it.

But before it could make a move, Liu Bai grabbed the old wolf's belly with one hand and pulled hard, tearing out all its internal organs in an instant.

The scene was extremely bloody.

But Liu Bai didn't show any fear, and one could even see... excitement in his eyes!
With its internal organs pulled out, the old wolf had no reason to live anymore.

The black shadow of the wolf that it had just released from its body also disappeared immediately.

If it had released this thing at the moment Liu Bai started fighting it, it might have been able to entangle Liu Bai for a moment.

Then it can take the opportunity to follow the lone wolf away.

It’s a pity that the old wolf was too cautious to fight with Liu Bai, but it was precisely because of this caution that it lost its life.

"Sir, why are you so hasty?"

"Don't you want to hear what this old man has to say?"

Xiaocao's words woke Liu Bai up. He threw away the internal organs in his hand and looked at the corpse of the old wolf.

It did not turn into a Yin bead.

The method used by the carnivores is indeed very useful. The description is: "For a wolf, take the wolf's fangs and pierce its forehead, then cover its face with its blood, and it can be subdued."

When Liu Bai was still in Laobeipo, he had already thought about getting its corpse.

But because I didn't have wolf fangs, I never thought about it.

This old wolf actually equipped himself with wolf fangs, so it can’t be Liu Bai’s fault.

Just treat it as a gift from fate.

"Mountain spirits and evil spirits are used to deceiving people, especially the wolf-dogs, fox spirits, and snake spirits. You can't trust them."

"It may appear to be begging for mercy, but it may be thinking of a sneak attack or escape."

While Liu Bai was explaining to Xiao Cao, he dragged the old wolf's body to the river.

I have to say that the place chosen by the old wolf is very good. There are mountains and water, and you can skin the wolf on the spot after killing it.

As for not?

That’s okay, violence can always work wonders.

Having just eaten the black-banded mountain snake, Liu Bai couldn’t eat any more, so he planned to kill this old wolf and take it home to eat slowly.

After all, we will have to stay at home for a long time.

After skinning and dismembering the body, Liu Bai picked up some of the fleshier ones and wrapped them with the wolf's skin. As for the head...

……

At midnight.

Master Ma urged Liuzi to bring his old smoking pipe so that he could satisfy his craving. He had almost died these days, so naturally he hadn't smoked a single puff.

Now that I can’t die, the addiction naturally comes back.

Liu Zi refused to give it.

He just stood by the door, smoking a cigarette.

Master Ma also knew the temper of his disciple, who was very stubborn.

Just like last year, Hu Wei actually came back last year and said that he had found a job in the Short Knife Gang. If Liuzi was willing to go with him, he could hang out there for a year or two and become a gang member.

This was actually a very good thing, and Master Ma also advised him to go.

But no matter what this brat said, he just didn't want to and insisted on staying in the Ma family farm.

Unable to persuade him, Hu Wei had no choice but to leave.

Just like now, Master Ma couldn't persuade him...

"boom--"

The door had been smashed in, and now the intact window had been smashed to pieces by a large rock.

Liuzi immediately stood up and lit the two life fires on his shoulders, looking around vigilantly.

Master Ma glanced at it, his nose twitched again, and then he sighed and said, "Okay, open the cloth bag and take a look."

……

After dealing with the old wolf, Liu Bai's life returned to normal again.

All he does all day is eat, sleep and bully the grass.

It was not until half a month later, one afternoon, that Master Ma drove his carriage to the Liu family. He said nothing, but walked in, came to the eaves, lit three incense sticks, and then kowtowed... three times. Three for the gods and four for the ghosts.

Liu Bai naturally didn't dare to accept this gift, especially since it came from a Yin person, so he naturally avoided it.

I just don't know if my mother can accept it.

After bowing, Master Ma left.

Just by seeing his back, Liu Bai felt that his spirits should have been lifted a little, after all, his back was straighter when he walked.

After he left, Liu Bai looked at his panel.

[Name: Liu Bai]

[Identity: Human]

[Realm: Spirit Body]

[Qi and blood: 26.7]

【Spirituality: 25.6】

[Attribute points: 21.6]

After eating old wolf meat for a few days last time, my qi and blood increased by almost two points, which made me feel very good.

As for the spirit...now, only the part below the calves has not been burned out.

Liu Bai estimated that this spirit body also needed to reach 30 attribute points before it could be burned to perfection.

As for the advancement of the ghost body, it is even more distant, but fortunately his mother will not drive him away, so Liu Bai is not in a hurry to leave.

Anyway, he is still young. How can he be kicked out of the house before he is even three years old?

More than two months passed like this. After both the spirituality and the qi and blood reached 30, the spiritual body was finally burned to perfection.

He continued to add points, and just when he thought he could gather the five energies... there was still no reaction.

Then when he was puzzled, his mother appeared.

Tell him that in order to gather the five elements, he must have the corresponding five elements as a trigger to successfully gather the energy.

For example, if you want to gather the fire energy in your heart and give birth to a good fighting ape, you have to use fire-related objects as a trigger in order to gather the energy successfully.

After listening to this, Liu Bai blinked and looked at his mother.

Madam Liu also looked at him, and then said: "There is no such thing as the best thing for gathering energy, only the most suitable one."

"If you want to walk your own path, you have to rely on yourself. Walking the Yin path... depends on fate, but more on yourself. I have to intervene too much. Although it seems that you can walk much easier now, when you walk to the back, for example, when you want to create your own domain, you will find that it is very unfamiliar and you have no idea where to start. Moreover, the road you walk will be full of thorns."

Madam Liu was probably worried that Liu Bai would think that she really didn't want to help him, so she said a lot and explained things in great detail.

"Remember, make it a habit to rely on yourself, not on others."

When Madam Liu said this, she raised her head slightly and looked towards the sky.

She thought about where she came from and where she is now.

This is the advantage of having a powerful backer. If you have a backer but it is not strong enough, it will most likely be like what Madam Liu said before.

At the beginning, I just helped my relatives.

But when this relative reaches a high enough level, he will find that all the help in the past was actually a hindrance.

And when that time really comes, it will be too late to regret.

"Don't worry, mother. I know what's going on!"

Having lived two lives, Liu Bai naturally knows this truth. The greatest help his mother can provide is to protect him from death.

As for other things, I still have the golden finger. If I still can't reach the highest level, it would be better to change the account and start over.

"Well, if you come across a suitable object that can gather energy in the future, you will be able to sense it and will naturally know it."

After Madam Liu finished speaking, she gently touched Liu Bai's little head, then turned around and went underground.

This incident also served as a wake-up call for Liu Bai.

Maybe it's time to leave the mountain...

But there’s no rush, just wait for the ghost body to be upgraded once more and then leave!

Not just him.

Even Madam Liu thought that Liu Bai was going out.

After all, I didn't give him anything to gather energy, so he can't improve his strength by staying at home.

He would have to go out and look for it himself.

As for safety... Madam Liu felt that with Liu Bai's current perfected spirit and his evil identity.

There is definitely no need to worry in this Blood Food City. Besides, even if there is danger.

And myself too.

So Madam Liu felt that Liu Bai should have no reason to stay any longer.

Moreover, during this period of time, she also realized that Liu Bai had been thinking about going out for a long time.

But she never expected that after waiting for ten days, she found out... Liu Bai had no intention of going out at all.

The whole day was the same as usual, eating, sleeping and bullying Xiaocao.

Madam Liu was too lazy to care about it and went back to her own business.

Nearly another year passed like this, and Liu Bai was almost numb from waiting.

He finally discovered that when the attribute points jumped to [50].

The “+” sign he had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared!

It takes 30 attribute points to upgrade from level 50 to level , and attribute points to upgrade from level to level . Liu Bai no longer dares to imagine how many attribute points will be needed for subsequent upgrades.

But it doesn’t matter, now I can finally reach level 4!

It was still that familiar night, and still that small courtyard, but last time it was early autumn, and this time it was early summer.

The peach trees in the yard are lush and the peaches are already bearing fruit, but they are still green yet.

When Liu Bai walked through the peach forest and arrived at the door, he had already completed the transformation from human to ghost.

Looking at the body that was no longer dark blue, he no longer felt excited or nervous.

Everything is so natural.

Just taking a few deep breaths has completely calmed my mind.
Then, with a thought, he lightly touched the "+" sign behind the [Ghost Body] on the panel.

In an instant.

The ghostly aura filled the entire yard, even forcing the nearby peach trees to tremble uncontrollably, and it seemed as if the fruits hanging on the trees would be blown off.

Just then, Madam Liu appeared again.

As soon as he appeared, the yard, which seemed to be in the center of a storm, suddenly returned to calm, and even the fruits that had fallen were hung back on the trees.

"My lady, the young master..."

In just two years, the ghost body had been upgraded one after another. Now even Xiaocao knew something was wrong.

"Shhh."

Under Madam Liu's delighted eyes, she made a gesture to keep quiet, and then saw Liu Bai's body slowly changing.

In just a breath of time, the original light blue color on his body completely disappeared.

What appeared instead was white, very white, as white as a dead person's skin.

Her body was getting taller, and the bone wings behind her were also getting bigger. Madam Liu thought about it, and the cloak behind her changed accordingly.

In just a few breaths, Liu Bai's ghost body changed from a boy of thirteen or fourteen to a boy of sixteen or seventeen.

His body stopped growing and he felt the changes in himself.

I first looked at the exposed skin on my body. Apart from being extremely white, there were no other strange features.

Then, after feeling something strange behind him, he suddenly spread out his bone wings. In an instant, the spread bone wings were almost as long as the yard.

Liu Bai had no doubt that he only needed to gently flap his wings to fly dozens of meters away.

If you want to go to Majiazhuangzi now, it may take less than ten breaths.

He slowly retracted his bone wings and folded them behind himself to hide them. Then he turned around and looked at Madam Liu standing on the stone steps, and shouted happily, "Mom!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his voice had changed.

No longer like a child, but with a bit more youthfulness, and then there is the deepness of an adult, which is commonly known as... a duck voice.

When Liu Bai came closer, he realized that his mother was no longer as tall as him.

Based on the height in the previous life, Liu Bai felt that Lady Liu might be around 168cm tall, and his ghost body... should be around 180cm tall at the moment.

But what is shown on this panel...

[Name: Liu Bai]

[Identity: Ghost Baby]

[Ghost Body: 4]

[Attribute points: 0]

His identity was still a ghost baby, but now his body didn't look like a ghost baby at all.

Liu Bai estimated that once the ghost body was upgraded to level five, the identity would change.

What comes after the ghost baby?
It's just a ghost?
Or will he turn into some other kind of ghost, for example, a painted skin ghost like my mother?
Or maybe turn into some other ghost.

Liu Bai didn't know.

Madam Liu looked at Liu Bai's current appearance, and while she was happy, her expression was also a little complicated.

"My son has grown up and looks like this..."

"What does it look like?"

Liu Bai reached out and touched his face, but didn't feel anything unusual.

Madam Liu smiled and waved her hand, and a cloud like a mirror appeared in front of Liu Bai.

Liu Bai looked over hurriedly.

A black and gold robe appeared on his body, making his already pale skin look even whiter.

There is no need to say much about his appearance, with regular facial features and those sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes... no, not starry eyes.

Liu Bai blinked and found that his eyes were still scarlet.

The two pointed horns on the head also turned pure black, as if carrying a hint of mystery.

Now he is truly the most handsome ghost... When Liu Bai saw his appearance as a ghost, he couldn't help but praise himself.

In comparison, what was that level 1 ghost body before?

Just like a goblin.

If I looked like this the first time I turned into a ghost, I wouldn’t have been so repulsed by it.

While thinking about it, Liu Bai seemed to sense something, and he shook his body slightly.

Immediately, a dark shadow walked out from behind him.

This is... a ghost? !

Liu Bai also remembered that this corresponded to the evil spirit that nurtured the Yin God among the Yin people, which was the ghost shadow.

For example, the few who came out of the Yin meridian at that time.

At that time, only the ancestors of the four great families could deal with it, and now... I have also become an evil spirit of that level?

So, I am now at the level of the ancestors of the four great families?

For a moment, Liu Bai felt that the waiting time didn't seem so unbearable.

It is the ability of this ghost that needs to be carefully studied.

As he was thinking, Madam Liu's voice suddenly rang in his ears, "Is it about time to go out now?"

Liu Bai was also suddenly shocked.

He turned around and looked at the peach forest, and whispered, "After eating the first ripe peach of this year, I will set off."
