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

Chapter 111 You...have eaten people [ask for monthly ticket]

But why did he suddenly turn into a ghost?
And he couldn't be suppressed. He stood up again, this time even faster. After landing, he just stepped on the ground and jumped out of the open window.

But before he landed, he violently flapped his bone wings and flew towards the south of the city in a flash.

When he was about to leave the city wall, a scent of incense and charm descended upon him.

Liu Bai could vaguely see that it was the appearance of the City God.

In order to prevent him from taking action, Liu Bai kicked him hard, breaking up his golden body that was about to manifest.

After leaving the Blood Food City, Liu Bai flapped his wings twice again, and his figure disappeared among the distant mountains.

After finally making sure that no one was following him, he slowly folded his wings and landed on a hilltop.

There was also a strange creature that cast a spying look at them, but after sensing the aura of Liu Bai, it immediately moved away.

Liu Bai, who landed on the top of the mountain, frowned.

Suddenly turning into a ghost...the kind that can't be controlled.

This has never happened before. Could it be that the gaze did something to me when I was sleeping just now?

But is it really that magical?

Perhaps sensing Liu Bai's doubts, Xiao Cao poked his head out from under his cloak. Without saying anything, he spoke directly into his mind:

"Sir, are you curious about why you turned into a ghost?"

"Yes, you know?"

Liu Bai turned his head and looked at Xiao Cao, who seemed to be still asleep. "Could it be you who did this?"

"no no."

Xiao Cao shook his head repeatedly, and then explained: "I heard the queen mention this once when she was underground."

"Mom? What did she say?"

Liu Bai knew that his mother would know any changes in him!
"She said that your strength as a ghost is much stronger than your strength as a human. Your blood pressure cannot be controlled, so you have to turn into a ghost every once in a while."

"But it's okay. After you've been a ghost for a while, you can turn back into a human."

Xiao Cao said as he jumped from Liu Bai's shoulder to the other, "Besides, young master looks so handsome as a ghost. It's so nice to be a ghost. Shall we go and massacre the city?"

Liu Bai: “???”

Since he just can't be suppressed and has temporarily turned into a ghost, then it's okay.

But if this is the case, I have to find a way to gather my five energies as quickly as possible.

Even if you gather the five energies, you will still turn into a ghost from time to time, but at least the suppression time can be longer.

Not like now... Liu Bai made a rough estimate.

This time, he only transformed into a human for about two and a half days, and then he couldn't suppress himself and turned into a ghost.

Yes, when he was at home before, Liu Bai would release his ghost body to wander around from time to time, but not like this time.

Ever since I met Master Ma and the others, I have been acting like a human being.

The ghost body is almost equivalent to a wandering Yin person who nourishes the Yin spirit, but he has not even gathered the five qi.

But if you want to gather the five energies, you have to find things of the five elements... You don’t have to worry about your mother for now, so let’s go to Situ’s house early.

As for the Situ family... I don't know what their attitude will be towards me after I go there.

If he is not willing, Liu Bai would rather find one himself. He has no intention of living under someone else's roof.

Anyway, I have the strength now and I won’t starve to death.

If you can’t find it, just steal it!

They robbed the Situ family, the Zhou family and so on, and then ran away.

Once he entered the old woods, even if their ancestors came, they would have to think carefully.

After making up his mind, Liu Bai felt a little relieved. He found a slightly larger stone and lay down on it.

He planned to stay here until the time was up and then go back to the city.

Just lying there, he pretended to take out the little porcelain figure from his chest. Looking at her smile, Liu Bai thought of his mother again.

He gently stroked the little porcelain figure's face with his fingers and smiled.

"Good night mother, see you tomorrow."

After saying this, he put the little porcelain figurine away. As for sleeping, he was not very sleepy. He did not dare to sleep in this old forest.

I just kept my eyes open and watched the moon in the sky until dawn.

……

"Oh my god, Senior Brother Xiao Liu is missing!"

The fat Liu Tie jumped up from the bed, the fat on his face trembling, and he woke up Hu Wei and the others.

Liuzi and Huwei were stunned at first, and then quickly called Master Ma from next door over.

Master Ma, smoking a cigarette, glanced calmly and said, "It's been so long, and you still don't know what's going on with this kid Liu?"

"Suddenly appearing, suddenly disappearing, that's nothing we need to worry about."

"That's true."

Hu Wei also understood and sat on the edge of the bed.

Liu Tie moved closer to stare at Master Ma and asked in a low voice, "Master Ma, are you really not panicking? This Senior Brother Xiao Liu is missing."

"I'm panicking, but what can I do?"

Mr. Ma held a pipe in his mouth, spread his hands, and spoke excitedly.

Master Ma knew Liu Bai's strength. He was able to gather the five energies, which made him stronger than himself.

Someone like him could disappear out of thin air in the middle of the night. If he was captured by someone, how powerful would the other person be?

Even if I find it, I will die if I rush to the door.

Besides, with the strength of Empress Liu behind her... Master Ma felt that he really didn't need to worry too much.

"Wait until tomorrow morning."

After Master Ma finished speaking, he turned around and went back, leaving only Liuzi and his two fellow apprentices, staring at each other in bewilderment.

In the end, Hu Wei was more open-minded and lay down on the bed, "Go back to sleep!"

Fortunately, when it was noon, Liu Bai finally came back.

He was still jumping around as usual, nothing happened.

Before he could speak, Master Ma waved his hand and said, "No need to explain, we understand."

Then he held the pipe in his mouth and glanced at Liu Zi behind him, then turned around and said, "We are going to go back after lunch, where are you?"

"I plan to stay in the city for a while and try it out. If it doesn't work out, I'll go back."

Liu Bai said with his head lowered.

Liuzi felt a little disappointed, but Hu Wei and Liu Tie were delighted. They both rushed to say that his place was suitable for living and sleeping.

"Don't worry about that for now. I have a place to stay here. If it doesn't work, I'll come find you later."

"Okay, I'll take Junior Brother Liu to show him my home first." Hu Wei said immediately.

"And I and my family."

"..."

The few of them had dinner nearby, and then Master Ma and Liuzi were about to return to Huangliang Town.

Fortunately, it’s not far away and we can meet each other anytime, so there is no sadness of parting.

After bidding farewell to Master Ma, Liu Bai went to Liu Tie's house first, then met Liu Tie's parents. After being thanked by them, he went to Hu Wei's house.

Among them, Liu Tie's home is in Renxiaofang in the south of the city, and Hu Wei's home is in Changqingfang in the west of the city.

Both markets are relatively good, and the people living in them are all wealthy people in the city.

Hu Wei originally wanted to let Liu Bai stay at his place for one night, but Liu Bai refused and didn't even let Hu Wei send him off.

He came out of Changqingfang by himself, and not long after he walked away and saw that there was no one around, he put the cloth bag back into Xumi.

In this way, he was like a kid from a nearby family who came out to play and did not attract attention.

If someone who was walking in the underworld saw it, he would see the grass on his shoulders.

Knowing that this is a child possessed by a ghost, people are even more afraid to offend him.

Heading north, Liu Bai asked for directions several times and finally found a market town called Qingpingfang in the north of the city.

Unlike the market town where Hu Wei and his companions lived before, Qingpingfang is even a higher level. There are only a few families here, but each family is very large, and some families even have doormen.

Along the way, Liu Bai also observed the culture of the red light house from afar.

Hmm...how to put it?

Liu Bai just felt that he hated himself for being only three years old and unable to grow up!
Otherwise, I have to experience the three wonders in this Blood Food City... Or, try it with a ghost body?

Liu Bai followed the path forward, thinking that it would be difficult to find the path along the way.

But before he walked far, he found the target of his trip in front of him... Perhaps because he thought it was quite interesting, he did not rush to the door, but squatted behind a stone pillar nearby and listened.

Soon, the sound was carried into my ears by the evening breeze.

"Miss Situ, I just think the weather is so nice these days, it would be a pity if everyone stayed at home, so I came here to invite you, I have absolutely no other intentions."

Liu Baigang also saw the person who said this. He was a young man in a green shirt. Judging from the aura on his body, he was also on fire, but it should be just a fire. The spirit was not burned out.

And the target of Liu Bai's trip is Situ Hong.

Last night, I heard Hu Wei mention to Liu Tie that Situ Hong had visited their town once and was known as the number one prodigy in Blood Food City.

She had been unsuccessful in starting the fire, and not only had she lost her status as a young lady, she had even moved out of the Situ family and moved to Qingpingfang outside.

It just so happened that Liu Bai's destination this time was the Situ family, and Situ Hong was the one who took care of him in the past.

Even Situ Hong couldn't light a fire, all because of Liu Bai. Three years ago, Liu Bai wanted to see what Situ Hong would look like three years later.

So Liu Bai, who had originally thought of going directly to Situ's house, changed his mind and thought it would be better to go and see what was going on with Situ Hong first, and then go to Situ's house.

Liu Bai had even thought about it on the way here.

If Situ Hong is bullied badly, I will take her back to the Situ family and perform a drama of "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't bully a poor girl".

I think it would be quite interesting.

And now... Liu Bai stuck his head out and took a quick look.

I found that compared with three years ago, Situ Hong still liked to wear white dresses, but she no longer wore the veil on her face.

Moreover, compared with the cold face three years ago, she now looks a little more peaceful and natural.

How should I put it? It's probably that it lost that sharp feeling and became a lot gentler.

Just like now, this young man in blue clearly wants to ask her out.

Liu Bai felt that with Situ Hong's original personality, she would probably refuse directly, but now she heard her say:

"I think so, but it's getting late today, so why not wait until tomorrow?"

The man felt rejected, but not completely rejected, so he smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll come again tomorrow. I hope Miss Situ will do me the honor."

After saying this, the man clasped his fists slightly, then turned and left.

Situ Hong did not rush back. She still stood at the door, smiling at him as if saying goodbye.

The man looked back several times and waved with a smile when he saw that Situ Hong did not go back.

Liu Bai just watched and felt that compared with three years ago, Situ Hong's methods were even more sophisticated.

This man might be hooked by her and become a black bass without even realizing it.

Liu Bai guessed that Situ Hong would most likely not go out with him tomorrow. She would either come up with another excuse or simply refuse to see him.

Sure enough, at the last moment, a maid walked out from behind the door.

Situ Hong said without even turning her head: "Pack up your things, we will go home early tomorrow morning."

"Yes, ma'am."

The maid turned around and was about to go back to pack her things, but the moment she turned around, she looked at the young lady.

However, she discovered that her young lady, who was always known for her calmness, now had a look of surprise in her eyes and even her lips were trembling.

She followed the young lady's gaze and saw a child standing next to a stone pillar, who was not even as tall as the pillar.

Who is he?
The maid was about to ask, but then she saw her young lady take the initiative to step forward, walked in front of the child, and then bowed and said softly: "I am Situ Hong, your servant, greet you, sir."

Just like when they met at the ghost market that year, she bowed again when they met.

But at that time, she was still the eldest daughter of the Situ family. She also did not light the fire, but one word could indeed send away the ghost who gathered the five energies.

But now, she no longer has the status of a young lady, and there is no longer a ghost escort around her.

Liu Bai just raised his head slightly and looked into her eyes.

There was surprise, joy, and excitement, but the only thing missing was the regret I had at the beginning.

Maybe there is? It's just hidden deeper?

Liu Bai didn't know, and he was too lazy to know. He just said, "Let's go, pack up, don't wait until tomorrow, go home now."

"it is good."

Situ Hong was so excited that she even felt like crying.

Liu Bai then remembered that at that time at her door, Situ Busheng seemed to have said... Maybe this was a test from the Liu family for her, and as long as she passed the test.

Only then can she be considered to be on the rise.

It seems that she may have been thinking this way all these years. Now that she sees me reappear, she feels that the test for herself has passed?
Liu Bai thought about it and felt that what Situ Busheng said casually did make some sense.

Take this lighting of the fire for example. This time when he came back, Liu Bai felt that as long as Situ Hong was still obedient, he would really help her light the fire.

After all, it would be more convenient to have a ghost walker by your side.

Seeing that the maid wanted to pack more clothes, Situ Hong refused her. She just took some things and went out again.

"Sir, this place is close to our home, so I don't have a carriage..." Situ Hong seemed to have a hint of guilt when she said this.

"It's okay, let's go."

Liu Bai didn't bother to care about these things and led Situ Hong forward.

At this moment, Situ Hong kept his head down the whole time, looking submissive and docile, and was very well-behaved.

Liu Bai asked casually, "I heard that you are no longer the eldest daughter of the Situ family?"

"Well, three months ago, my family held a clan meeting and said that I was no longer suitable to continue to be the eldest daughter of the Situ family."

"Oh? Your ancestors didn't say anything?"

"He said...he said that the ancestor told me to wait patiently, saying that the time has not come yet."

This was another sentence that could not possibly go wrong. For a moment, Liu Bai became more and more curious about Situ Busheng.

This is truly an old fox.

Take this sentence just now for example, the Situ family’s meaning is actually very clear.

If Situ Hong can't start a fire, then don't occupy the position of the eldest lady. Situ Busheng actually has the same idea in this regard, but he doesn't say it out of consideration for the relationship.

So when he tried to appease Situ Hong, he said that the time was not right.

When does it mean the time is right?
Perhaps the time has come now... Situ Hong pointed the way, and after turning two corners, Liu Bai saw a large courtyard that occupied at least half of the street.

There is a plaque with the words "Situ" on it.

After walking all the way, we finally arrived.

Liu Bai stepped onto the steps of the Situ family without hesitation, and Situ Hong hurriedly followed and walked to the door.

The gatekeeper didn't know Liu Bai, but he knew Situ Hong.

"Miss, you...you are back."

Situ Hong nodded lightly without saying much. She just watched Liu Bai walk in and she followed him again.

At this point, she didn't even know what Liu Bai was doing here.

The redwood threshold was very high, and Liu Bai even had to jump to get over it.

After entering the gate of the Situ family, Liu Bai looked around curiously. He did not act pretentiously, as this was his first time entering such a wealthy family.

So, it is still necessary to take a closer look.

For example, the rockery and flowing water just after the entrance, as well as the fish and turtles swimming inside, were things he had never seen before.

Going around this place, we continued walking on the gravel road towards the depths of Situ's house.

Situ Hong did not dare to make a sound to disturb them, and just followed silently. But before he had walked for a moment, he saw a young woman in green clothes and a gold headdress walking hurriedly in front of him.

And from a distance, she guessed that the fire had already been lit.

Liu Bai, who was originally planning to go into the garden next door to take a look, stopped and looked back.

Situ Hong took a step forward consciously.

The beautiful woman in green clothes opposite came closer and also stopped.

Just when Liu Bai thought there would be some quarrel between the young ladies of a big family, he never expected that the woman would just say calmly:
"I didn't expect that my sister would have time to come home. I thought that my sister had gone to Qingpingfang and would forget even the door of the house."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Liu Bai knew where Situ Hong's tea art came from.

It seems that this is all family-related.

As for tea art, Liu Bai felt that Situ Hong should not be afraid of anyone. Just like now, she was obviously the last one to start, but as soon as she opened her mouth...

"Now that my sister has become the eldest daughter of the Situ family, could it be that she can no longer tolerate an elder sister like me?"

"No way... Sister, I remember that my sister was always very generous before."

Liu Bai couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing this.

The eldest daughter of the Situ family who had just arrived looked embarrassed. When she heard the laughter again, she naturally turned her gaze to Liu Bai.

Liu Bai naturally felt her gaze, so... is this because he couldn't defeat Situ Hong and is here to harm me?

Just when Liu Bai was ready, he saw the eldest daughter of the Situ family squatting down, looking at him with joy in her eyes and said:
"Sister, whose child is this? Is he ours? He's so pretty. Come, come here and let sister hug him."

Liu Bai: “???”

Although she was a little surprised, she had to admit that she was quite capable to become the eldest daughter of the Situ family after Situ Hong.

At least when it comes to treating people, there is nothing to complain about.

Someone was willing to hug him, and Liu Bai wanted to refuse, but the eldest lady of the Situ family acted too quickly... so he didn't refuse.

Of course, it has nothing to do with the great principles in other people’s hearts.

But when Situ Hong saw this, his expression turned a little ugly.

But at this moment, Xiao Cao suddenly came out from Liu Bai's body, sniffed, and then suddenly said:

"Your mouth smells so good...Have you ever eaten a human?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the eldest daughter of the Situ family, who was originally smiling, suddenly froze in laughter.

Liu Bai didn't expect Xiao Cao to have this ability. Just when he was about to struggle, he found that his body seemed to be tightly clamped.

This is interesting.

Just when Liu Bai was about to ignite the fire of life, Situ Hong came to the rescue faster.

Moreover, her way of saving the master was even more direct. She shouted on the spot: "Ancestor, Master Liu is here!"
