I'm useless, but my apprentices are all gods who protect others.

Chapter 17 17. Accepting a disciple seems like an old friend.
Ghosts patrolled the streets, and every house in Furui Town extinguished the candles and closed the doors tightly. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Sheng Yi's "Nice to meet you" was sudden and vivid in the silence. Not only did it frighten the people next door who were panicking in the dark, but even the ghosts on the street looked at Sheng Yi.

Ghosts: It’s been a long time since I heard a living person speak.

People nearby: No, who is so not afraid of death?
After being discovered, Kindness became even more unscrupulous. He leaned out of the window and took in the scene of the entire street.

Ghosts covered the entire street, some kneeling and some lying on their stomachs, walking crookedly forward.

However, even so, they were still arranged in a square formation, as orderly and orderly as an army.

The smile on Sheng Yi's lips gradually faded, and she stared at the ghost downstairs for a long time, lost in thought.

More and more ghosts discovered Sheng Yi. Several ghosts in armor screamed at Sheng Yi. Seeing that Sheng Yi was unmoved, they actually stacked on top of each other to climb up Sheng Yi's window!

Shenyi lived on the third floor, and the ghosts climbed up staggeringly. Although there was no shadow, the smashed windows made a loud bang, and the guests staying on the first and second floors were frightened.

The shop owner lived in the wing on the second floor. When he heard the noise outside, he cursed in his heart:

Who is not afraid of death? Why bother with them?If there was a bloody disaster in the store tonight, how could he keep the store open...

Sheng Yi calmly watched the ghost crawling up to her tremblingly. What came up was a ghost whose head was chopped off with only half of it left. His hands with broken fingers were holding on to the window eaves, and his bloody one eye was looking straight at Sheng Yi. It was making babbling noises, and looked very scary.

Shengyi listened to his nonsense for a while and sighed: "I don't understand."

The face of the beheaded ghost suddenly became ferocious, and he clawed at Shengyi with all his teeth and claws, but Shenyi closed the window leisurely.

Headless ghost:......

The owner of the inn calmed down and paid attention to the movement here. Unexpectedly, he didn't hear any screams, but felt a dim light appear from top to bottom outside the window.

Oh, it was the one who was not afraid of death who turned on the oil lamp.

Turning on the lights at this time will attract the attention of ghosts!
The innkeeper remembered that there were two private rooms on the third floor, and only a pair of masters and apprentices lived there.

The master's face was pale and unremarkable, but the apprentice's appearance was handsome and impressive.

So who is so unafraid of death?

He must go up and ask in person tomorrow.

Of course, that person has to survive until tomorrow.

After Sheng Yi knew what was going on, she packed up and prepared to go out. Before leaving, she didn't forget to light an oil lamp and write a note for Duan Yanyao.

I wrote on the paper that I would go out to find out the news and let Duan Yanyao have a good rest without worrying.

The ghosts outside seemed to be stimulated by the light, and the ghost with a missing head crawled in, just as Shangyi was about to go out.

"Are you okay?" Sheng Yi said calmly, "But the time is not coincidental. I have to go out now for something. There are pastries on the table. Please eat while you wait."

The missing-headed ghost paused, stopped showing his teeth and screaming, and just stood and stared at Sheng Yi.

As soon as he stopped, the brain matter on his head began to patter down his ears and onto his shoulders. For a moment, all he could hear was the gurgling sound of blood and brain matter flowing together.

The headless ghost was puzzled.

When other people saw them, they all ran away in panic. When they were frightened, they ran home to hide and did not dare to move anymore. Why was this girl so calm?

Isn't he scary enough?
But his brain was leaking out.

Probably because he was missing half of his brain, the short-headed ghost thought for a long time and couldn't think of a reason, so he could only stand stiffly on the spot.

He remembered what Sheng Yi said about eating and waiting.

So the short-headed ghost looked at the cakes on the table and fell silent again.

His stomach was bitten through by the demons, and he lost everything he ate.

Sheng Yi was about to stuff a note into Duan Yanyao's wing, but before he could do anything, Duan Yanyao opened the door.

"Where are you going, master?" Duan Yanyao smiled.

"There is something wrong with both this town and Yujiazhai. I'll go and find out the news first." Sheng Yi put the note away.

"I'll go with Master. It's very dangerous at night." Duan Yanyao pointed out the window.

He was very pleased to see Duan Yanyao's kind words, and patted Duan Yanyao on the shoulder: "Master is very pleased that you are willing to take risks with me. It's just that you haven't entered cultivation yet, and you don't know how to use spiritual power or sword. I'm afraid there will be more variables. I see that you are tired today, so just take a good rest first and don't worry too much." I didn't intend to ask Duan Yanyao to do anything when I came here this time. I just wanted to help him improve. Just knowledge.

She is an elder, how can she let a junior put herself in danger?

After saying this kindly, he took the wooden sword and left, leaving Duan Yanyao alone.

Duan Yanyao touched the spot he had just kindly photographed, only to realize it later.

Is he... taken care of?
strange.

It's rare.

Duan Yan looked at Sheng Yi's leaving figure from a distance and didn't look away for a long time.

As a young master, he is not very capable, but he seems... quite reliable?

Duan Yanyao laughed.

Since Sheng Yi asked him to go to bed, Duan Yanyao followed her wishes. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he met the decapitated ghost floating out of Sheng Yi's room.

The decapitated ghost wanted to chase Sheng Yi, but stopped when he saw Duan Yanyao.

It's not that the decapitated ghost doesn't want to move, it's that he can't move.

The person in front of him just looked at him quietly, which made the decapitated ghost feel like he was about to lose his soul.

Like a tiny speck of dust in front of the Buddha, full of hierarchical oppression.

"She asked you to wait while you eat. Don't betray her good intentions." Duan Yanyao said casually.

It wasn't until Duan Yanyao spoke that the stiff soul of the decapitated ghost could move.

He nodded numbly and returned to Shenyi's room obediently.

……

Shenyi left the inn in the darkness. The lamp lit in her room attracted the attention of the ghosts. In addition, she was more careful when she came out, and the ghosts did not block her way up the mountain to the ancient city.

If you really get stopped, Shanyi is not afraid.

The waiter once said that when ghosts make trouble, people will not be peaceful during the day.

According to the rules of the ghost world, those who can appear during the day are not evil ghosts.

He is a white ghost who has never harmed anyone or committed any crime during his lifetime. He is unwilling to enter reincarnation because of his obsession.

Shangyi has observed that these ghosts have no resentment and are actually not lethal.

Scary at best.

Walking on the mountain road with kindness at night.

Yujiazhai has a close relationship with Fuu Town, so naturally they will not hide it and build a spacious mountain road directly to Yujiazhai.

Shengyi did not take the main road, but used his spiritual power to shuttle between the trees above the road, looking at the footprints on the road from time to time to identify the way.

However, as I was walking, I suddenly heard a faint sound of footsteps.

The other party was deliberately hiding his aura, but it was still easily sensed by Sheng Yi.

Kindly continue on the way.

……

Xiang Qingzhao wanted to go to Yujiazhai, but finally escaped the pursuit of the ghosts, but saw a person after entering the mountain.

Judging from the figure, she must be a girl, with a veil on her face, and she seems to be traveling with her.

Xiang Qingzhao followed him without thinking. Unexpectedly, the person who was in front of him just now suddenly disappeared.

Xiang Qingzhao stopped and stood on the roadside looking around. Suddenly a wooden sword was placed in front of her neck, and a cold voice sounded:

"Follow me...seeking death?"
