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

Chapter 110 The Uncontrollable Ghost Body [asking for monthly votes]

So... this person is here to cause trouble, rushing to get himself slapped in the face?
Liu Bai looked at the scene in front of him, wondering whether he should light a fire first. Even if he didn't take any action, it would be a good way to scare this person.

But unexpectedly, Master Ma just nodded, and the man laughed and changed his attitude.

"You must be Master Ma, I often hear Hu Wei mention you."

After saying that, he straightened up again and said, "My name is Wu Ming. Like Hu Wei, I work at the back door. I call him Brother Hu."

Upon seeing this, Mr. Ma took his pipe out of his mouth and laughed.

"So your name is Wu Ming. Hu Wei has mentioned you to me many times."

"Okay, Brother Hu is on duty at Dingkou to deliver the goods. He will be back soon. I will take his place and you guys go and do your own things."

Seeing this, Liu Bai also thought that this was right.

When he was still in the town, Hu Wei was quite smart, but he didn't show it much because of Liuzi.

Now that he has entered the city, he, a boy from the mountains, is a person who is unwilling to suffer any loss.

Therefore, he will definitely handle interpersonal relationships well. If he really offended people so easily, he would not have made it to this headquarters.

Finally, before anyone was seen inside the mansion, the crowing of roosters could be heard.

Liu Bai raised his eyes and saw a young man walking out with his hands behind his head, looking up and humming a tune.

Although his clothes were ragged, they were very clean.

His face was tanned, but his eyes were very bright.

The doormen bowed and saluted.

Wu Ming also hurriedly stepped forward and called out "Young Gang Leader".

Gongsun Shi glanced at him and said, "Xiong Dayou? What are you doing here? Isn't it your turn to patrol the south of the city today?"

"Uh……"

Xiong Dayou turned his head to look at Master Ma and found that the latter's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He was about to apologize and leave.

However, he saw that the young leader, who was originally extremely lazy, actually took a step forward and came to Master Ma... no, in front of the child, and then shouted in a flattering tone:
"Brother Xiao! Why did you come just now? I have been waiting for you for several years."

“Isn’t this coming too?”

Liu Bai replied.

Mr. Ma couldn't stand the injustice of being tricked, and angrily shouted, "You bastard, come here quickly!"

Gongsun Shi looked back a few times and realized what was going on. He said with a sullen face, "Xiong Dayou, right? You don't have to patrol the streets anymore. Go back to your original hall."

Xiong Dayou was still laughing, but after a few laughs, his mouth drooped and he opened his mouth several times in a sad manner.

But he couldn't say anything, so he just lowered his head and walked away.

Gongsun Shi looked at his back and muttered a few words.

"I told you not to bring this guy into the hall earlier, but you didn't listen."

But when he turned to look at Liu Bai again, he regained his brilliant smile and explained: "This guy is just like that, he can't control his mouth and says everything."

"There's not much truth in his mouth. I just think it's fun. I don't have any bad intentions."

Mr. Ma tapped his pipe and nodded, but he didn't really try to embarrass the man.

"Little brother, you guys are here to look for Hu Wei, right? Okay, I'll go get him and let him have a good rest tomorrow. When you're done, little brother, you have to come look for me."

"it is good."

Liu Bai himself also planned to stay in this Blood Food City for a while, so it would be good for him to get to know more people.

Not to mention that the two had already had contact earlier in Huangliang Town.

But before he could shout, Hu Wei had already come out.

He first greeted Master Ma and Gongsun Shi, but when he saw Liu Bai blocking Gongsun Shi, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Junior Brother Liu!!!"

He even rushed over and picked up Liu Bai, the joy in his heart was beyond words.

What’s different from Liuzi and Mr. Ma is that Hu Wei himself was saved by Liu Bai.

In addition, they had spent a lot of time together before, so the relationship between them was naturally extraordinary.

Seeing Liu Bai and his fellow disciples reunited, Gongsun Shi was tactful and excused himself on the pretext of having something to do. However, before leaving, he repeatedly asked Liu Bai to come and see him when he was free.

And he did not forget to remind the doorman.

This way, I won’t have to report and wait next time Liu Bai comes.

Liu Bai narrowed his eyes and looked at him a few more times. This man... is a meticulous person.

When Hu Wei had some time, the three brothers got on the carriage, and Master Ma was driving happily.

After just a few words, and even before Liu Zi could say anything, Hu Wei took the initiative to say, "Tonight, at Zuiyun Tower, I, Hu Wei, will treat you!"

Before coming, Liuzi had already told Liu Bai that Zuiyunlou was the best restaurant in the city, and that there were even many dishes that could only be purchased with Yin beads, and eating them would increase qi and blood.

Therefore, whether Hu Wei is truly happy or pretending to be happy can be recognized at a glance.

Just as he was talking about going to look for Liu Tie, Hu Wei said, "If we go now, he must not have come home yet. He works in the back hall of Zhou's paper-making shop. He is different from me. We won't be able to find him even if we go there."

"It's okay. I'll take you to Zuiyunlou first, and then I'll go to his house and wait for him."

Master Ma, who was driving the carriage, said happily.

In his opinion, he had no wife or children, only these few disciples.

But fortunately, his disciples all worked hard, and now his frustrated spirit has been lifted up. Of course, there is nothing more joyful than this.

"That's fine. This Zuiyunlou also belongs to the Zhou family. Let Liu Tie register his identity then. We can save some money on meals."

Hu Wei had obviously figured out the Blood Food City thoroughly and knew all the tricks.

Liu Bai was also happy about this. He took this opportunity tonight to ask about the situation in the city.

While waiting for Master Ma to drive the car to a restaurant facing a small lake in the south of the city, Liu Bai realized that there were indeed some good places in this city.

For example, the Zuiyun Tower has three floors, and each floor has a flying eaves gallery. Even in such a desolate city, it is bustling with people.

Apparently, no matter what time it is.

The poor are only the lower class people.

Master Ma sent the three of them here, turned the car around and went back. Now that Liuzi, Huwei and the others have grown up, he is not worried anymore.

Liu Bai followed between the two of them. Before he even entered the door, Hua Niang, who was wearing uniform clothes, came up to him and greeted him with a suitable smile on her face.

This made Liu Bai sigh. No wonder Zuiyunlou was doing so well.

Just the girls who greet guests are incomparable to any other place.

The first floor is for ordinary people to sit, and those who want to go to the underworld can go to the second floor. As for the third floor, Hu Wei mentioned it before, those who can go there are either rich or noble in this Blood Food City.

There are also private rooms on the second floor, but unfortunately the three of them arrived late and could only ask for a table by the window.

Liuzi seemed to be here for the first time and seemed quite embarrassed.

But when I thought about the fact that I had also lit three fires, it seemed more natural.

Liu Bai took the opportunity to ask Hu Wei about what happened after he entered the city.

Hu Wei also recalled for a while, his facial expression changing, and finally it all came down to one sentence.

"It's all right. That's how it is in the gang anyway. I chose a slightly easier path.

Although the benefits are a little small, the risks are also small. Fortunately, my spirit body is about to burn out now. "

Liuzi took a few melon seeds from the table and said while eating them: "I heard that not long ago, your Short Knife Gang had a few fights with the Five Clothes Hall. Are you okay?"

"I do not."

Hu Wei shook his head, "We who are hanging bags don't care about these things, they have to be the ones carrying knives."

As he spoke, Liu Bai noticed that the thing on Hu Wei's chest that looked like a decoration was actually a cloth bag.

So Hu Wei is now... a one-bag elder? I don't know when he can become an eight-bag elder.

Liu Bai thought it was interesting, "So you and Liu Tie should see each other often, right?"

"It's difficult." Hu Wei grabbed a handful of melon seeds and put his legs on the chair, doing whatever he wanted to make himself comfortable. "They are very busy in the paper-making business. It's good enough to have one day off in a month."

"But it's safe, too. He can make a profit there, and all he has to do is take care of the paper-making."

"He's good at knitting and is hardworking. He often does some private work after returning home at night. He's very rich now and he's well-off. You'll know when you see him."

Although Liuzi didn't say anything after hearing this, he nodded repeatedly.

This also aroused Liu Bai's curiosity, and then he asked about Hu Wei's situation in the city.

As for the rest... I didn't ask them here, there were too many people talking. So after waiting for about an hour, Liu Bai saw Mr. Ma popping out from the stairs, and then a fat young man came out from the bottom and looked around.

When he saw the figure sitting by the window clearly, he exclaimed and then ran straight over.

His not-so-thin body ran on the second floor, and the whole floor was shaking.

At first, several people who were walking in the underworld were about to raise their heads and say a few words when they saw the clothes Liu Tie was wearing. However, their expressions immediately changed, and some even laughed and said, "This little brother has to run slower."

Liu Tie looked like he couldn't handle this, so he simply ignored it and ran directly to Liu Bai, asking with a twinkling look in his eyes:

"Brother Xiao Liu, when did you come back?"

"I...you...I..."

He tried to hold back for several words, but didn't know what to say.

Mr. Ma finally came over and said, "Okay, that kid came back the day before yesterday and set out for the city yesterday."

Liu Bai was also a little surprised when he saw Liu Tie, who had changed so much.

He originally thought that it was Hu Wei who had changed, but he never expected it to be him. "It seems that the food in the Zhou family is pretty good."

Liu Tie was also a little embarrassed, and finally sat next to Liu Zi, "It's mainly about eating every day, and then there's nothing to do in the paper-making business, that's it."

"Okay, I know you eat well."

Hu Wei waved his hand, "Master Ma and Junior Brother Liu are here today, you, the landlord, have to pay a little and do something good."

"It must be fixed!"

Liu Tie waved his hand, obviously he had really made a fortune.

The result was exactly as it was. Liu Bai had a very satisfying meal tonight. Since he traveled through time, this meal had been ranked second in his heart.

The first one is naturally the meal cooked by my mother, there is no doubt about it.

No one can compare.

After eating and drinking, it was already dark and pitch black. Hu Wei and Liu Tie both had homes in this city, but neither of them planned to go back.

Finally, the master and his disciples found an inn nearby and asked for two rooms.

The elderly Master Ma stayed in a room by himself, while his fellow disciples gathered together. If they didn't chat until midnight, they would not be able to fall asleep.

In fact, it was almost the same, waiting for them to go to bed.

After a long chat, Liu Bai didn't even need to ask any questions.

Both Hu Wei and Liu Tie turned the topic to Wufutang.

"Have you heard any news from the Zhou family? You have a lot of people there, so the news should be widespread."

After talking about this, the room became quiet.

Originally there were some things that could not be said, but in front of his fellow disciples, Liu Tie felt that there was nothing that could not be said.

So he organized his words a little, and then said, "I haven't heard much news in the paper-making business. The only thing I heard a few days ago was the guy who was in the same room with me. His second uncle has some connection with the Zhou family."

"He said that this Wufu Hall can actually be related to the original Hong family."

"Hong family?"

Liu Bai was a little surprised when he heard this. Didn't his mother say at that time that the Hong family should be handed over to Zhang Cang to deal with?

How come Zhang Cang can’t even handle this cleanly?

Perhaps Liu Tie could sense Liu Bai's surprise, so he quickly explained, "It's not the Hong family. It's just that the Hong family was originally supported by the City Lord's Mansion, and they specialize in handling matters that the City Lord's Mansion cannot handle."

"Later, when the Hong family disappeared, the City Lord's Mansion was like missing an arm."

"So now there is another Wufutang."

After hearing this, Liuzi couldn't help but ask, "Didn't they say that the Short Knife Gang was supported by the City Lord's Mansion?"

After listening to this, Liu Tie glanced at Hu Wei and said, "Brother Hu, go ahead and speak."

Hu Wei was now in a somewhat carefree state, lying on the bed with his legs crossed, "These are all rumors spread by outsiders. Among the three families, the relationship between our Short Knife Gang and the City Lord's Mansion is the most strained."

"If it weren't for our gang leader, Sister Hong, who is still quite strong and capable of chopping, our Short Knife Gang would have been wiped out by the City Lord's Mansion."

Liu Tie asked again, "I heard that last month, Sister Hong had a fight with the city lord, and the result was a draw?"

"Then this is not something we should know."

"That's true."

Liu Bai just listened to them talking until they were silent, then he said, "Then this Wufu Hall was really created by the City Lord's Mansion, right?"

"It should be. Now the Wufu Hall is deceiving the common people and constantly trying to sow discord between the remaining three families."

"If they didn't have the City Lord's Mansion backing them up, they wouldn't be so arrogant."

Liu Bai wrote it down.

Since I plan to stay in this Blood Food City for a while, it would always be a good idea to get more information.

"What about the Situ family in the Red Lantern Square? Is there any news?"

"The Red Light House... they are still running the business, and no one is competing for the profits. It's just that recently, due to the instigation of the Five Fu Hall, their relationship with the Meng family has become increasingly strained." Hu Wei explained.

After the explanation, Liu Bai had a better understanding of the current situation in the city.

But at the last moment, he suddenly thought of what he had heard in the old woods, and asked, "Have you heard of any staff at the funeral temple in the city?"

"Funeral temple?"

Hu Wei thought about it after hearing it, "No, this should be happening in the state capital, not here. Buddy, did you hear it?"

Liu Bai pricked up his ears again. He had found the piece of gold paper with the word "Zhou" written on it from the two people in the funeral temple. Now the gold paper was still in his Xumi.

Liu Tie also shook his head after hearing this. "I've only heard of funeral temples once or twice. I don't know anything about them."

"Junior Brother Liu, why are you asking this? The funeral temple is coming to our Blood Food City?" Hu Wei was surprised.

"No, I just heard a few words from others and I was a little curious."

As he was talking, Liuzi started snoring.

Liu Tie was in much the same situation, lying on the bed, speaking incoherently.

Liu Bai called out the panel and took a look. All the attribute points had been refreshed, and it seemed that it was already past midnight.

Hearing that no one was talking, he turned over, crawled into the corner and started to sleep.

Xiaocao, who had listened to the whispers all night, had already dozed off in his arms.

Seeing that Liu Bai didn't say anything at this moment, it tilted its head back and fell asleep, even snoring slightly.

It was almost midnight and I didn’t know what time it was.

Amid the snoring of several fellow disciples, Liu Bai, who was half asleep and half awake, felt as if someone was always looking at him.

And this is the benefit of having extraordinary spirituality.

I can feel it as long as someone looks at me a few more times.

At first he just opened his eyes without standing up, and after a little perception he felt that the gaze seemed to come from outside the window of the inn.

That’s not so bad. It’s not like Hu Wei and the others stayed up all night staring at me.

Just as he was about to take action, ready to stand up and rush out of the window, the feeling suddenly disappeared out of thin air.

Then there was a sound like birds flapping their wings outside.

So, a bird?

What on earth is this thing? In the city, the City God is also very popular.

It's impossible to let the evil spirit in... unless it's the same evil spirit as yourself.

Thinking of this, Liu Bai pushed himself up with his hands and jumped off the bed, landing silently on the ground.

Xiaocao, who was awakened, also lay on his back without saying a word.

Liu Bai came to the window, gently pushed it open and looked outside.

Apart from finding that the moonlight was a little dim, I couldn't see anything else and didn't discover anything else.

I could hear the snoring of Mr. Ma from next door. Old Deng was sleeping soundly.

Since he didn't find anything, Liu Bai was ready to go back to bed and continue sleeping, but just at this time, he had just laid down...

But suddenly, he felt his hands and feet getting cold!

For him now, this feeling is no longer unfamiliar, it is even very familiar.

Gonna turn into a ghost!
