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

Chapter 12 I am actually... a ghost!

Liu Bai was guarding behind Madam Liu. His body was just about the same height as the skinned ghost kneeling on the ground, so he could just see its face clearly.

Liu Bai has had the experience of facing Madam Liu day and night, and even had various close contacts with her... He is basically immune to such terrible evil spirits.

So he looked very carefully.

The skeleton of this skinned ghost is relatively small, and judging from its facial features, it should be a female ghost, so... is it really exactly like my mother?

It’s just one skinning and the other painting the skin?
"You...are you worthy enough to imitate me?"

Madam Liu spoke again, but her action while speaking was... She raised her leg and stepped on the skinned ghost's forehead, directly pressing it to the ground.

Madam Liu didn't even bend her waist.

She looked around the wilderness and sneered:
"Tell those old bastards behind you that there's no need to hide. I am right here in Huangliang Town."

"If you're not afraid of losing that damn hat on your head, come on."

After she finished speaking, she was about to turn around, but she seemed to remember something and said again:

"By the way, if you dare to let something like this disgust me again next time..."

After saying that, she stepped down with her right foot, and the skinned ghost who was stammering and screaming had his head smashed into pieces.

"I'll go find them myself."

Immediately, the skinning ghost turned into six Yin beads, two red and four green.

This was the first time Liu Bai saw red Yin beads.

But Madam Liu exerted more force and even the Yin Pearl was crushed to pieces.

When Liu Bai saw this, he knew that his mother was really angry this time.

So on the way back, Madam Liu walked very fast and had no intention of waiting for Liu Bai.

But fortunately, Liu Bai, whose energy and blood are almost as strong as three adults, can barely keep up.

But all the way he was thinking about what Madam Liu had just said.

This skinning ghost must have been sent by someone to test whether Madam Liu is hiding here.

But what do they want to do with their mother?
And judging from what my mother said, she should not be afraid of them.

The premise is that she didn't brag...but she shouldn't be that kind of person, Liu Bai thought.

They walked all the way until they were near the town. Madam Liu seemed to have calmed down. She turned around and looked at Liu Bai, who was out of breath, and said coldly, "Aren't you curious about why you can see these evil ghosts, but others can't?"

Liu Bai was slightly stunned, and then nodded.

Madam Liu raised her hand and patted Liu Bai hard on the back of his head.

How heavy is this?

Liu Bai staggered, as if he saw his grandmother. Just as he stood firm and wanted to ask a question, he felt his whole body becoming cold.

The coldness spread quickly from the back of the head to the entire head, then to the chest, and then to the hands.

Liu Bai finally saw clearly that his originally white and tender hands had turned dark blue.

Moreover, the nails that were originally trimmed very delicately by Huang Yiyi were also growing longer rapidly, then curled inward, and his hands turned into a pair of claws.

But if that is really the case... then the problem is on my body and head.

Liu Bai quickly hugged his head with both hands, which was still cold and smooth to the touch. He opened his mouth and wanted to call out "Mom".

As a result, the sound produced was no longer the childish voice, but became extremely sharp and harsh.

He suddenly looked up at Madam Liu.

It turned out that when Madam Liu looked at him again, her eyes were no longer cold and indifferent.

Instead, his face was full of kindness, just like... the dream Liu Bai had when he was praying in the blood pool underground in the Liu family.

Madam Liu squatted down slightly, reached out and gently touched Liu Bai's forehead, and said softly: "Xiaobai, be good and call me mother."

"Do not……"

Liu Bai took a step back in disbelief, because he had just seen his current appearance in Madam Liu's clear eyes.

His face was livid, his eyes were red, his ears were pointed and large, and even his originally black hair had turned into a small tuft of yellow hair on top of his head. What was this?
This is a monster! This is a ghost, this is not me!

"I am a ghost too."

He muttered something, suddenly woke up, and summoned his own panel.

[Name: Liu Bai]

[Identity: Ghost Baby]

[Ghost Body: 1]

[Attribute points: 0.1]

The panel that originally displayed [Human] has now turned into... a ghost baby.

So, even the panel doesn’t recognize me as a human being?

That’s right, how can a child born by a ghost be a human?

Liu Bai looked up again and found that Madam Liu's originally loving eyes had turned cold again.

But in these cold eyes, Liu Bai saw a hint of... pain?
"Did I hurt her with what I just said?"

Looking at her, Liu Bai didn't know what to say, or even how to face her.

"You really want to be a human being, right? Fine, I'll satisfy you."

Madam Liu looked at him, said this coldly, and suddenly reached out and punched herself in the chest.

Madam Liu, who was not injured when facing the hanged ghost or the skinned ghost, actually spat out a mouthful of blood at this moment.

But her expression did not change at all, and the spurting blood did not fall to the ground. She stretched out her hand and drew a few obscure runes, then stretched out her hand again and pointed.

The blood fell on Liu Bai's head.

The next moment, Liu Bai felt the coldness and discomfort in his body gradually fade away, his originally long nails returned to normal, and his hands became delicate and white again.

He looked at the panel again.

[Name: Liu Bai]

[Identity: Human]

[Qi and blood: 2.7]

【Spirituality: 0.7】

[Attribute points: 0.1]

The panel returned to normal, but the abnormal thing was that there was an extra box next to this person's panel.

What is displayed above is the data of [Ghost Baby] just now.

But what was different from before was that the panel of [Ghost Baby] was locked with two crossed blood-red chains.

Even the numbers above are dim.

So... this is the effect of Madam Liu's blood just now?
She sealed her ghost body so that she could live peacefully as a human being?
By the time Liu Bai reacted, she had already walked away.

After a brief hesitation, in just a moment, the trees around him closed together again and turned into a dense forest.

Liu Bai had no other choice but to stand up and quickly catch up, returning to Madam Liu's side again.

But this time… no matter how he stretched out his hand, he clearly grabbed Madam Liu’s skirt.

But there is nothing in the palm of my hand.

Empty.

Liu Bai opened his mouth and wanted to call his mother, but he felt that he was in the wrong first and there might not be any response even if he called.

So the word "mother" seemed to be stuck in the throat, unable to go up or down, like a piece of phlegm.

It was not until he reached the door of his house that Liu Bai shouted out, which was also a question he asked.

he asked:
"Mother, where is my father?"
