Chapter 87 (5k) The money-keeper and Li Huachao

【Act 3】

You smashed the wall and released the monster in the wall. The monster's evil energy spread, and the entire town was affected.

But that doesn't seem like a bad thing to you.

You thought of a new key point, so you decided to go back to the girl's house and take a look.

[To be continued...]

"This fog seems to have no effect on living people."

Li Huachao watched the humans running out of the mist. He had been observing one of them. Ten minutes had passed and that person still had not mutated.

Yu Liang said: "I also discovered that this fog will only turn dead people into monsters."

Although he said he wanted to go to the girl's parents' room again, the fog still made Li Huachao stop.

Centered in the girl's parents' room, the fog had expanded to almost the entire town, but it seemed to have reached its limit and did not continue to spread for a long time.

Now after ten minutes of observation, Yu Liang has finally determined that this fog is useless to living people and will only resurrect the dead and turn them into monsters.

He switched his profession back to "Writer", then summoned the four shadow warriors and paper figures, and took out the chess pieces and put them in his pocket for emergencies.

Yu Liang took out about ten small paper figures, and they were hidden in Yu Liang's pocket. Since their bodies were just a thin piece of paper, they took up no space at all.

The four shadow attendants were placed at Yu Liang's feet, moving with his steps. No matter what angle the light came from, there were five shadows under his feet.

As for the kid...

Forget about being a cub, he looks like a monster at first glance and can easily scare others.

When everything was ready, Yu Liang also walked into the mist. He took a few simple breaths and did not feel anything strange in his body.

But the moment he stepped into the fog, he chose to continue playing the role of hunter Li Huachao.

If he appears as a writer, he will not be able to enjoy the bonus of physical fitness, and his nerve reaction speed is not fast enough. If he is attacked by a monster hidden in the fog, he will be doomed.

Li Huachao asked: "So now you go directly to the girl's house?"

"Well, let's see if there are any stationery stores or the like on the way." Yu Liang said, "I want to see if there are any extra chess sets, so I can replenish resources appropriately."

"That's true." Li Huachao nodded, "This is a small town, I guess it has everything."

"Yes." Yu Liang nodded, looking forward to it.

He can kill randomly in this world with just a few chess sets. Unfortunately, he cannot prepare the chess pieces and bring them in before entering the dungeon. Only things belonging to the Kaitan World can be brought into the dungeon.

"It's already two o'clock in the morning." Li Huachao turned to look at the shops on the street. In this fog, the visible range was only about five meters, so he could only see the clock in the shop when he walked in front of the shop.

This shop sells gold and silver jewelry. It shouldn't be open at this time, but at this time, the shop door is wide open. There are blood stains on the walls and the floor, and there are broken limbs in the corners. It seems that there was a monster here. Cruelly tearing people apart.

"There will still be people in the jewelry store at this time?" Li Huachao was a little surprised.

Yu Liang thought for a while and said, "Maybe someone broke into the store during the chaos and happened to run into some monster."

"That's true." Li Huachao touched his chin, then walked to the store, "Come, bring some gold and silver back to improve the lives of you and our lovely sister."

Yu Liang: "..."

He didn't have any objections to what Li Huachao said about improving his life, but the last sentence "his sister"...

She might be older than your previous life, Lao Du, right?

In other words, you can't come out to bully others now. Why didn't you dare to say that when you were at home two days ago?

Yu Liang glanced at his own page. His eyes had recovered after the last copy of Ghost Story, so his character column was still ten squares, and the "Zhi" character stayed on a separate eleventh square.

At this time, the character bar in the eleventh frame was shaking constantly, just like the window of a computer icon shaking.

It seemed like she heard everything she just said.

Fortunately, Li Huachao's body and hers would not appear in the same place, otherwise Yu Liang would have had a moment of silence for Li Huachao.

Maybe he will really be turned into Li Erha.

Um……

Yu Liang suddenly felt an inexplicable little expectation. What was going on?

Li Huachao walked into the gold and silver jewelry store. He banged the glass cabinet twice with the handle of his table knife. After smashing the glass, he reached in to retrieve the gold and silver jewelry.

Yu Liang took the opportunity to throw a "check" at the gold and silver.

——

gold ring

Name: ring

Texture: metal

Note: Mirror items are all illusory.

Um?

The words in the note made Yu Liang stunned.

Mirror items?

Are they all illusions?

Does this mean that these things have no practical use?

"Li Huachao, try to see if you can use these gold and silver to form characters." So Yu Liang asked.

"Oh." Li Huachao followed the instructions and soon got a negative answer, "No, remind me that these things are mirrored items and they are all fake."

"Okay." Yu Liang was helpless, but this was normal.

If he was really allowed to collect the raw materials used to synthesize characters unscrupulously, he would be worried that he might not be able to leave this copy of the ghost story. It would always feel like the last supper.

Generally speaking, this weird world is quite tricky and will not easily give players the opportunity to take advantage.

"But the things in that grocery store should be real, right?" Li Huachao murmured.

Yu Liang: "..."

Why are you still thinking about that grocery store? !

"Forget it." Li Huachao muttered, grabbing a handful of gold necklaces and stuffing them into his pocket.

"Huh? Do you still want to take the fake one away?" Yu Liang asked.

"At least it's true in this world. Others can recognize the gold and maybe use it to buy things." Li Huachao explained, grabbing a handful of gold necklaces from the cabinet and putting them around his neck, and carefully selected ten rings. , one on each finger.

Li Huachao seemed to know what Yu Liang wanted to say, so he quickly explained: "This is the finger tiger, my attack weapon. One fist can kill a wild monster, okay?"

Yu Liang glanced at the mirror next to him out of the corner of his eye. There was still no reflection of himself in the mirror. Fortunately, he couldn't see what he looked like now. Otherwise, seeing himself look like a nouveau riche, he might He would switch back directly and would not easily give Li Huachao a chance to control his body.

"That's... that's my thing." A weak voice came from inside the gold and silver jewelry store, "Don't touch my gold."

A skinny little boy walked out of the darkness. He was short in stature and had thin limbs. He looked like a goblin.

His face was pale, and the skin on his face was dry and cracked, like the cracked earth during a drought.

No heart.

Yu Liang added in his heart.

This is not human.

There is a big hole in the chest of the skinny monster. Through this big bloody hole, you can see the wall behind him clearly. In his hand, he is holding a dirty piggy storage tank. There is a gap in the back of the piggy. This is probably the savings. The entrance to the property, and presumably the exit in the abdomen, were tightly blocked with a plastic stopper.

"Don't touch my gold." The skinny monster said tremblingly. As he spoke, he stuffed the gold and silver jewelry in the cabinet next to him into the gap in the piggy's back, as if he was afraid that "Yu Liang" would snatch it from him. generally.

Li Huachao glanced over and saw that the glass cabinets close to the monster were empty. It looked like they had been plundered by the monster a long time ago.

The monster looked thin and had a weak voice, but his hand speed in grabbing the gold and silver was not slow at all, like a wind blowing through the remaining clouds.

"Huh?" Li Huachao's eyes fell on the piggy storage jar in the monster's arms. The monster had stuffed nearly ten glass cabinets into it, and the combined volume of gold far exceeded that of the piggy jar. volume, which is obviously unscientific.

In other words, this piggy storage jar is a treasure that can help the monster hold a large amount of gold and silver treasures, and the monster's appearance of holding the piggy jar with one hand has not changed at all.

Either this monster has amazing arm strength, or this piggy storage tank does not change its mass according to the amount of things it contains.

What a good thing.

Li Huachao's eyes suddenly lit up. He grabbed a handful of gold necklaces and bracelets in each hand, walked forward and put them into the pig storage tank in front of the skinny monster.

"You..." The thin monster was stunned for a moment, then bowed respectfully to Li Huachao, "Thank you, thank you!"

"Quite polite." Li Huachao muttered, and then he saw the monster staring at the ten paper tigers on his fingers, his eyes shining.

"Can you give me this?" the monster asked.

Li Huachao nodded, and then said: "Okay, but you have to answer some questions from me."

This monster seems to be able to communicate, unlike the monster I saw before that only knows how to kill.

"Okay." The monster nodded.

"what's your name?"

Li Huachao took off a gold ring and threw it into the piggy jar.

The monster shook his head, "I don't know."

Li Huachao threw a "check" at it, and the guy's basic information immediately appeared on the page.

——

Unsatisfied

Name: Wudi (cannot be used for character synthesis)

Texture: None

Note: A special strange creature created when Yin energy enters the body, with greed as its nature.

Not satisfied?

Yu Liang explained to Li Huachao in his heart: "This should be its name. 'Wudi' is the same as 'Wuyan', which means insatiable. The name of this monster is quite good."

"It actually sounds pretty good? No way." Li Huachao muttered in a low voice.

He said sternly to the monster, "In that case, I'll call you a miserly ghost."

"No, it doesn't sound good." The monster refused.

But Li Huachao took off three rings and threw them into the piggy jar, then looked at the monster and asked, "What now?"

"From now on, I will be called the Scrooge." The Scrooge covered the entrance and exit of the piggy jar, as if he was afraid that Li Huachao would regret it.

Li Huachao nodded with satisfaction, and said to Yu Liang: "Actually, I originally wanted to call it Yan Jiansheng, but unfortunately it doesn't understand who Yan Jiansheng is."

Yu Liang urged: "Stop doing boring things and ask questions that have practical value."

"Oh." Li Huachao nodded, then looked at the money-sucking ghost and asked, "Do you know why you can communicate, but other monsters like you only know how to kill?"

"I...I don't know, I'm also afraid of them, so I hid inside, but they didn't seem to be interested in me." The Scrooge said in a trembling voice. He looked very scared, but seemed to be sure that there was no one nearby. There will be monsters, it returned to calmness, "But I think... maybe it's because I haven't eaten anyone."

"Then why didn't you eat people?" Li Huachao asked curiously.

"Because..." The Scrooge was about to answer, but it seemed to have thought of something. It took off a gold ring from Li Huachao's finger and threw it into the piggy jar before continuing, "Because I think it's better to make money." It’s important, eating people is boring.”

Li Huachao looked at his empty finger and raised his eyebrows.

"Those cannibals have become stronger, but also more irrational. As for me, the sight of human flesh now makes me sick." The Scrooge muttered, with some distress in his tone, "I don't know why. Yeah, I'm obviously a monster, how could I have anorexia?"

Yu Liang was thinking about the information in its words.

These monsters are formed by dead people inhaling gray gas. Their nature is to eat people, but if they are interfered by other desires and do not eat people for a period of time, they will become rational and their cannibalistic nature will be suppressed.

"In that case..." Li Huachao chuckled, "Then just follow me and I'll take you to make money, how about that?"

"Really?" Scrooge's eyes lit up again, "Can you really accept a monster?"

"Of course, they are all buddies." Li Huachao laughed, "I also raised a cute little monster called Zaizi. I will take you to see it someday."

"Really?" Seeing Li Huachao's friendly and natural smile, the Scrooge Ghost was a little moved in its heart. It thought that it was a monster and could not be accepted by humans, but the man in front of it not only accepted it, but also helped it. It makes money.

So touching.

It was so touching.

"Of course." Li Huachao laughed loudly, acting like a big brother. He took out his own dormitory suit and threw it in front of the money-keeper, "Here, put on this and the hood."

"Okay." The Scrooge nodded and followed the instructions. It put on the overalls and then the hood, and asked, "What's the use of this? Why should I wear this?"

Scrooge is already thin, but this overalls is loose and large, so it looks extra big after being put on Scrooge. The top alone covers it near the knees, and the two trouser legs are trailing On the ground, coupled with the big paper hood, it makes the Scrooge look inexplicably cuter and smaller.

"Do you think you have to cover up people's eyes to make money? You are so weak now. If you can't show yourself as a monster, you will be beaten to death." Li Huachao said seriously.

"Yes, that's right." The money-keeping ghost naturally accepted it completely. It held the piggy jar in its hand and followed Li Huachao, like a little follower.

Yu Liang also sighed in his heart.

Why does this guy always have good dealings with monsters?

Obviously when getting along with human beings, Li Huachao can always make others angry to death at the right time.

Is this the hidden trait of a hunter?

Close to monsters and far away from humans?

But now that the money-sucking ghost has fallen into the trap, Yu Liang will not interrupt Li Huachao. After all, he is also very curious about the piggy jar in the money-sucking ghost's hand.

To use the formula of fantasy novels, isn't this a treasure like a Na ring or a space ring?

Unexpectedly, a money-keeping ghost in the mirror can actually use the laws of space. This copy is so terrifying!

Well, it’s actually easy to understand. The characteristics of monsters are all for ghost stories and have nothing to do with their own strength. When I was in the bird garden before, the Han Hao Bird also involved the law of timeline causality, and I didn’t see it really Can travel through time and space.

Li Huachao walked into the thick fog and walked in the direction of the girl's home relying on his memory.

Nothing could be seen clearly in the fog, only vague outlines could be seen, and vague light groups floating in the sky on both sides of the street were the street lights on both sides.

"Is it too quiet?" Li Huachao thought.

If a dead person inhales the fog, he will turn into a monster. There should be a lot of monsters in this area.

"hiss--"

A strong suction force came from the fog, sweeping away the fog on this street.

On the street twenty meters away, there was a fat man more than ten meters tall. He sat in the center, his huge butt taking up most of the street. The flesh on his body hung down in layers and piled up on the street, blocking the road tightly. Strictly.

Probably because it was too big, it didn't wear any clothes and just used a few quilts to cover its lower body private parts.

There were densely packed human heads on its belly, which looked like chickenpox or sarcoma.

The heads' eyes were dull, and they seemed unable to speak. They could only stare straight at Li Huachao in front of them.

The fat man's left hand rested casually on the street lamp, and with the other hand he picked up the corpse on the ground and stuffed it into his mouth. After biting off half of the corpse in one bite, he handed the remaining half to his belly button and said, "Daughter-in-law Son, are you hungry? My husband will give you something to eat."

The human head on the belly button immediately looked up at the fat man's chin and said delicately: "I'm still hungry."

However, the numerous human heads began to twist when they smelled the smell of the corpse. They seemed to be trying to snatch the food from the woman's head, and they screamed one after another, as if fifty kettles were boiling at the same time.

The woman opened her mouth and swallowed half of the body in one gulp, then stretched out her tongue to lick the red meat juice at the corner of her mouth, and smiled brightly.

And Li Huachao also recognized the fat man: "Is this the stupid guy? He's become quite strong after a while, so this is a training game, right?"

"call--"

The fat man's hearing seemed to be extremely sensitive. It instantly turned its head and looked in the direction of Li Huachao. It also recognized Li Huachao. The enemy was extremely jealous when it saw it, so it roared:

"die!"

I'm a bit busy at the moment, so I'll update more slowly.
