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

Chapter 143 Liu Bai's Lung Golden Dragon [asking for monthly votes]

Huang Yiben was originally from this town and was married to the owner of a cloth shop in Huangliang Town.

They are considered a well-off family.

After Huang Yiyi's death, and even when evil spirits later besieged the town, Liu Bai also took good care of the owner of the cloth shop.

But I never saw the owner of the cloth shop have any children.

Thinking about it again today, it seems that there is indeed a problem...

When Sister Hong heard Liu Bai's question, her expression immediately darkened. Liu Bai knew that he had asked a bad question. He shouldn't have asked that question. He shouldn't even have asked this question.

How can you just ask this casually?

If I had known this earlier, I should have asked my mother first...

But Sister Hong is Sister Hong after all. She felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, but soon recovered and said frankly: "It existed at first, but it died later."

These days, the death of a baby is a very common thing.

It's not just ordinary families, but also some wealthy families and officials in the city, who are like this.

Only the offspring of those who have walked through the underworld are slightly better, after all, their children have slightly better physical constitutions when they are born.

But it’s not much better. After all, what really harms babies is the hygiene and medical conditions in this world.

But after Sister Hong said this, her eyes subconsciously glanced at Madam Liu again.

Ever since her death and being rescued by Madam Liu, she has often thought about this problem.

I didn’t know before, and maybe I didn’t feel anything.

But now that I have some doubts, I feel that there are suspicious points everywhere after my child's death.

Now that they were talking about this, Madam Liu no longer concealed the truth. She put down the teacup she had just picked up and said, "Yan'er did become a ghost after she died. She was still very young when she died, so her soul was too weak to be reversed."

"So I sent her to a friend of mine and asked her to help take care of her. With her help..."

Madam Liu looked at Huang Yiyi and said, "Your current strength should not be as strong as Yan'er's."

"what?"

When Sister Hong heard this, she stood up suddenly.

At first she was surprised that her child was still alive. After all, he had become a ghost... Even if he was a ghost, he was still his own child.

But what shocked her even more was what Madam Liu said about her child's strength.

"Madam Liu, I have now developed my Yang Spirit. I... I... am not weak anymore, right?"

Sister Hong is still very confident in her abilities.

But Lady Liu did not pamper her this time, but said bluntly: "It is indeed okay in Blood Food City, but it is still very weak in the world."

As Madam Liu spoke, she looked around. Huang Yiyi only saw the Bloody City, but she saw the whole world.

"After all, the world is too big."

These words were somewhat of a blow to Sister Hong, but soon she began to ask about her child's situation again.

"Wait a minute. I have something else to do right now and can't leave. Wait for a while and I'll bring her back for you to see."

"Okay, okay."

"Then I have to go back and walk the dark path properly. I can't wait to be beaten by Yan'er after I come back. That would be too embarrassing for me... ahem, too embarrassing for me."

Sister Hong said this while crossing her legs again, revealing her extremely long, snow-white legs.

After listening for a while, Liu Bai had already figured out that Aunt Huang's child was a daughter.

But now she has become a female ghost.

I don’t know if she inherited Sister Hong’s long legs... Liu Bai thought about it and almost slapped himself on the forehead.

This is Sister Hong’s body, not Aunt Huang’s body!
How could this be inherited?
So what did Aunt Huang look like originally?

Liu Bai recalled Huang Yiyi's original appearance. Her appearance could be considered good, but as for the rest... he suddenly thought of something.

Aunt Huang's daughter also became a ghost, so she must be a little ghost, right?

When we meet again, can I still bully him?
Liu Bai had nothing to do and was thinking about random things in his head. Not long after, Sister Hong said she wanted to go back.

Why go back?

Go back and walk the underworld!

Madam Liu did not try to keep him and sent him back to Blood Food City. When Liu Bai came back, he had already taken out the remaining pages.

This is his Qi-gathering item, and it is also a gold-element item.

"Okay, let's start." Madam Liu said casually.

"Huh? That's it?"

Liu Bai thought that his mother asked him to come at night for some reason, but now it seems that he was overthinking.

Madam Liu also said "Hmm?" Liu Bai didn't say anything, but suddenly ignited his own life fire.

As the three fires started, the whole room was immediately filled with warmth.

Madam Liu didn't avoid it either, just watched from the side.

After Liu Bai ignited the life fire, he picked up the torn pages with both hands.

The first time I gathered my energy, it took me several breaths of time to ignite the remaining page.

But this time... the torn page caught fire just as it was being dragged up.

And the fire was very fierce, just like a fire was lit in the wasteland covered with willow catkins... In the blink of an eye, the torn page turned into ashes and fell into Liu Bai's hand.

It's still that familiar warmth all over my body.

Next came the lungs. The pages of the book that had been burned out slowly condensed and a figure emerged.

After the pages of the book took shape, tiny flames began to rise from them.

At first there were a few fiery red flames, but in the blink of an eye, all the flames turned pure black again.

Just like gathering the fire energy before.

With previous experience, Liu Bai was not panicked or worried. He just watched the black fire grow bigger and bigger, and finally turned into a burning black cocoon.

After the black cocoon took shape, several breaths of time passed.

But this time, the black cocoon was not torn open with bare hands, but suddenly, the black cocoon that was already burning with black fire suddenly caught fire.

After the fire devoured the black cocoon, the true form of the golden lung dragon inside was revealed.

At just one glance, Liu Bai subconsciously widened his eyes.

How should I put it? Although I was mentally prepared, I was still shocked after seeing my own Golden Lung Dragon.

Other people’s Lung Golden Dragon looks like a small snake with four legs.

And this... white skeleton is on the outside, with black fire burning all over, and its eyes are blood red. It has four legs, and there is a ball of burning black fire under the four legs to help it fly.

Floating on this fragment of page.

Liu Bai's mind moved, and the lung gold energy left his body, still in the form of a ball of black flame. Before it hit the ground, it had already transformed into a white-skeletal dragon, circling beside Liu Bai. As its body floated, even a little black fire spewed out.

But when Madam Liu turned her eyes and glanced at it, the originally arrogant white bone dragon turned into a white bone lizard lying on the ground... exactly the same as the previous Heart Fire Ape.

Of course, we can’t blame them for being timid.

All we can say is that Madam Liu is too powerful. She can make them bow down to her with just a glance.

"Just give it a try."

Madam Liu snorted softly, then turned around and went underground.

As soon as she left, the Golden Lung Dragon became spirited again. It waved its four claws lightly, flew up from the ground, and circled around Liu Bai.

Seeing this, Liu Bai released his Heart Fire Ape again.

As soon as the latter landed on the ground, he took out a stick that reached his eyebrows, then bared his teeth at the Golden Lung Dragon and waved the stick in his hand.

The Golden Lung Dragon was not to be outdone. It took advantage of the fact that the Heart Fire Ape could not fly and began to spit out black fire when it flew above it.

The Heart Fire Ape was furious and jumped up and hit with a stick.

Liu Bai knew that the Lung Golden Dragon and the Heart Fire Ape did not get along. Both of them had murderous auras, but this was only the case when they were alone together.

If there is an external enemy, these two are more united than anyone else.

So Liu Bai also found it lively, but soon, a sound came from underground.

"If you dare to mess up the house, you can go dig a hole under the peach tree and bury yourself."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bai quickly suppressed his anger, then looked at the sky and felt that it was about time.

He took off his clothes and lay down on the bed he hadn't seen for a long time.

During the time I was away, I never treated myself badly and the place I slept in was always good.

But in terms of security and comfort, it is still not as good as my own doghouse.

Just after lying down for a while, Liu Bai felt sleepy. He called out dazedly, "Good night, mother. See you tomorrow."

Underground, Madam Liu, who had not slept for a long time, was also lying on the bed. She moved her lips slightly and said something silently.

"good night, see you tomorrow."

……

The next morning, Liu Bai was a little dazed when he just opened his eyes.

It was still the familiar room, everything around was the same as before, Xiaocao was lying on the table and humming, obviously someone was playing with a ball of wool or something.

The sound of Madam Liu cooking came from the kitchen. Sensing this familiar feeling, Liu Bai happily stayed in bed for a while before getting up.

After I tidied myself up, the breakfast made by Madam Liu was served on the table.

Seeing this, Liu Bai couldn't help but ask the question that had puzzled him for a long time, "Mom, why do you still maintain the living habits of ordinary people every day?"

"Three meals a day, food, clothing, housing and transportation... these are actually unnecessary things for you, right?" After hearing this, Madam Liu poured a bowl of white porridge and placed it in front of him without changing her expression.

"Want to know?"

Liu Bai nodded obediently.

"When you can beat me, you will know."

"Then I won't have a chance in this life. How can I possibly defeat my invincible mother?"

When Madam Liu heard this, she slapped him on the head.

"Eat yours."

"okay!"

After finishing his breakfast in a hurry, Liu Bai looked at his mother who was doing nothing, thought for a while, and tried to ask:

"Mom, do you know about Situ Busheng's situation?"

Madam Liu, who was reading a book, raised her head and glanced, "I know, this is his fate."

"Then mother, do you want to save him?"

Liu Bai thought about his half-dead appearance and said, "He is still quite pitiful."

"Do you think we should save him?" Madam Liu asked.

Liu Bai listened to this and thought about it seriously, and then said: "If saving him will not affect mother, then save him."

Liu Bai recalled the experiences he had along the way, not to mention how Situ Busheng treated others.

But there was nothing to say to himself. Since that was the case, Liu Bai felt it necessary to keep him alive.

"okay."

Her own child spoke, and it was a small request. Madam Liu didn't even ask any more questions, but just nodded and agreed.

……

In Xueshi City, inside the ancestral hall of the Situ family.

The former head of the family Situ Liang, the ancestor Situ Busheng who was previously a human and is now a corpse puppet, as well as Situ Hong, Situ Nvzi, and Situ Yue who just returned from Qingshan City were sitting there.

What they discussed today was nothing else but the future of the Situ family.

"I'm sure you guys already know that I have joined the Paper Umbrella Society, so I am destined not to stay in this Blood Food City for long."

"In the current situation of the Ancestor... you have to follow me, so the next step is the Blood Food City..."

As Situ Liang spoke, his eyes first swept over Situ Hong.

But before he could speak, Situ Busheng, who had already turned into a corpse puppet, struggled to speak, "No, Hong'er has to follow and serve the young master, she can't do it."

"it is good."

Situ Liang did not force it, as the ancestor had already told him clearly what the young master's identity was.

Even if there is only one person left in the Situ family, he must stand in front of the young master.

He then turned his gaze to Situ Nu's wife and Situ Yue.

After a little thought, he said, "Situ Yue, I'll have to let you take care of the house from now on."

"You don't have to worry too much. The current city lord is Sister Hong. Given the relationship between our two families, as long as we don't cause trouble, no one will cause trouble for us in the future."

"You just need to find a few good candidates. If there is a suitable one, you can pass the position of the head of the family to him."

"As for the missing ghost fetus Situ Rui, I will go look for her."

At this point, after traveling all over the country, Situ Liang will no longer set his sights on this small Blood Food City.

"In that case, I'll take it first." Situ Yue stood up with the help of a cane, without any hesitation.

After all, apart from her, the only other person could be Situ Nvzi.

But if the Situ girl is the head of the family...she might choose to take her life.

Seeing that Situ Busheng was about to start drooling like an old man with Alzheimer's disease, he still said at this moment: "Be careful about buying knives on credit... on credit... "

Situ Liang patted him on the back of his head and said, "Don't worry, I'll ask someone to find out."

As soon as he finished speaking, a cold voice came from the door, "No need to ask."

Hearing this voice, Situ Hong was the first to react. She stood up first, and then knelt down without hesitation, "Situ Hong greets Madam Liu."

In the past, when the ancestor saw his own son, he would kneel on the ground, let alone meet the real master.

So Situ Hong reacts quickly, and Situ Liang also reacts quickly.

He immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Madam Liu."

While waiting for Madam Liu to come in, she saw people kneeling all over the ancestral hall.

She was followed by Liu Bai, who walked past them expressionlessly without even glancing at them.

For her, if Liu Bai hadn't mentioned Situ Busheng, she wouldn't even remember the entire Situ family.

To her, this kind of thing was like seeing an ant on the roadside, she would look at it a little more when she was bored.

Once I get home, I will naturally forget about it.

She walked straight to Situ Busheng, who had a dull look in his eyes and looked like a puppet. Then she raised her hand and pointed at the old man's forehead from a distance. Then she led Liu Bai and disappeared.

For Madam Liu, who controls the entire Blood Food City, if Situ Busheng is dead, it would be more or less troublesome to rescue him.

But to save a half-dead person... that's something that can be solved in the blink of an eye.

In the end, Madam Liu and Liu Bai had already left, and the people from the Situ family didn't dare to get up.

Only when they heard their ancestor kneeling on the ground and then kowtowed heavily in the direction of Huangliang Town did they look up.

He finally understood why his ancestor praised the Liu family so highly.

This is truly a living god who can save lives!

……

After rescuing Situ Busheng, Liu Bai returned to Huangliang Town and went to Ma's farm that day to look for Liuzi and Master Ma.

As luck would have it, he happened to meet Hu Wei and Liu Tie who came back to visit their relatives.

After asking again, I found out that today is actually Mr. Ma’s birthday. After a few years, Mr. Ma is now 69 years old.

By next year, it will be my 70th birthday.

At first, several fellow disciples said that they would help him hold a grand ceremony next year, but in the end he said.

"I am a ghost who has completed the burning of the spirit body. I haven't lived to be a hundred years old. Do you have the nerve to say that I am celebrating my birthday?!"

That made sense, so Liu Bai quietly replaced the hundreds-year-old mountain spirit that he was about to take out with a mountain spirit that was only a hundred years old.

But even so, the brothers still enjoyed their meal happily.

But this time, no one made a breakthrough in strength.

As we chatted, the topic naturally turned to the major event that happened in the city some time ago.

Liuzi and Master Ma didn't dare to enter the city during that time. They just said that drops of blood appeared on their hands and then disappeared.

Hu Wei only had a half-understood idea, but he kept saying that almost everyone in the city was killed.

When asked again, he turned the topic to Liu Bai.

Liu Bai said a few words casually, saying that something big had happened, and then an extremely powerful, extremely young, and extremely handsome ghost man descended from the sky and solved the matter.

These fellow disciples were dumbfounded after hearing this.

Master Ma, who was smoking a pipe, listened to these words and thought he had already understood everything. In his opinion, it was possible for Liu Bai to praise him so much.

There is only one person, and that is Empress Liu.

Come to think of it, apart from the powerful Empress Liu, who else could have this ability.

Just thinking about it, Master Ma felt that it was necessary to go to the Liu family's courtyard to worship again, but he could only go at night.

So as to avoid being found out by Liuzi and losing face.

Then Liu Bai asked about Hu Wei and Liu Tie.

Since Hu Wei has this relationship with Liu Bai, he has naturally become a key figure in the Short Knife Gang... Oh no, the City Lord's Mansion.

Previously, he had to be yelled at by the mayor when he returned home, but this time when he returned home, he could yell at the mayor directly.

Although Liu Tie worked as a worker in the Zhou family before, he was not cursed to death by the left hand and right foot because there was no blood relationship between them.

As he is good at paper-making, he is always a guest of honor wherever he goes.

So naturally, when Hu Wei called him, he also went to the City Lord's Mansion.

If Liuzi wants to go to the City Lord's Mansion, that's naturally no problem, but he is now approaching old age.

I don't want to run around, I just want to stay in this Ma family farm.

The lives of several fellow apprentices also perfectly illustrate what it means "when one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit."

But when Liu Bai said this, his several "brothers" naturally "tortured" him.

In the end, Liu Bai had no choice but to defeat them one by one.

To deal with Liuzi, he shouted, "Liuzi plans to change Ma's manor to Liuzi manor after Master Ma is gone."

So Liuzi was taken away by Master Ma.

Dealing with Hu Wei and Liu Tie was even easier. All he had to do was tell Hu Wei, "Tiezi always wanted to know how you slept with women in the first place."

After hearing this, Hu Wei pulled Liu Tie out of the house, and kept saying to him, "Today I will let you know why I, Hu Wei, am your senior brother."

A few fellow disciples were playing and joking around, and when Liu Bai was about to go home, he saw the chessboard of life and death in his Xumi tremble slightly.

The black elephant, who rarely shows up, took the initiative to ask on the chessboard:
"Does anyone know what to do if you are being targeted by a ghost?"
