At this moment, Li Chaiyuan felt as if he was being doused with a basin of ice water, and his whole body fell into coldness.
In a trance, it was as if his soul was scared out of his body, but the reason why he was not scared out was because this was not reality, and his body was not here.
"Run!"
Li Chaiyuan took Qin Li's hand and got up and ran away.
But before they could take a few steps, the group of grandmothers who were still washing dishes with sand stood in front of them together, blocking the way.
Their seemingly shriveled and old bodies remained motionless no matter how Li Chaiyuan pushed and collided.
In despair, the thought that appeared in Li Chaiyuan's mind was: No wonder the grandfather's paper-making business is good, and the materials and workmanship are indeed here.
In fact, there is no hope for breaking through, because he is still young and has no strength at all.
He originally thought that he could avoid this incident by hiding, and he was almost successful, but he was ruined at the last minute.
He turned around and looked at the cat-faced old lady, forcing himself to calm down, and then began to quickly recall whether there was any knowledge that could be used in his mind.
There is no need to bother rummaging through it, because he has only read one book, and it is still an entry-level encyclopedia...... I only read four volumes.
It was really a book that he hated when it was used, but now, he could only try to rely on his existing knowledge points.
As a result, Li Chaiyuan really found someone who seemed to be a good match.
In the twelfth chapter of the third volume of "Jianghu Zhi Wei Lu", a special kind of death is recorded - a corpse demon.
When a person with deep resentment was floating in the water, he came into contact with a certain animal corpse that also had an evil aura.
This kind of death will have some special abilities, such as the corpse demon given in the book is located in the northeast Changbai Mountain area, which is a combination of man and Wong Tai Sin, which can arrange miasma and bewitch people, and will eventually be destroyed by the righteous path.
As for what the "righteous way" refers to here, Li Chaseyuan is not clear, and he feels that there is no need to be clear, because every dead ending is "destroyed by the righteous way".
Is it really destroyed, by which sect, is it a monk, Taoist, lama, or sorcerer...... It doesn't matter at all, the author of this book seems to have used "destroyed by the righteous path" as the end of each article.
The cat-faced old lady in front of her looked like a corpse demon.
But if you insist on putting together concepts, you must first make sure that you died in the river, and if you die in other places, you are not dead and do not belong to the "Records of the Strange Scenes".
But this old lady has clean clothes, gray and fluffy hair, no matter what, she doesn't look like a water ghost.
Li Chaiyuan thought...... It should be out of line.
The cat-faced old lady withdrew her sticking head, she bent down, reached out to pick up a piece of tiger skin meat and a chicken leg on the ground.
She only noticed something was wrong through these two on the ground, because it did not conform to her simple cognitive habits in her dreams.
"What a good food, how can you waste food like this, this is to be ......"
The last word was stopped by the cat-faced old lady, obviously, saying those two words in her current identity was the real taboo.
She opened her mouth, regardless of the dirt, and put the piece of meat and chicken leg in her mouth, chewing it so much that she was intoxicated.
"At that time, it would be great if I had a bowl of porridge on a stick."
Her eyes revealed memories, which were the biggest thoughts she had had in a long time when she curled up on the bed and looked at the closed door, even ...... Extravagant hopes.
But in the end, she couldn't wait for a grain of rice or a sip of water.
The cat-faced old lady looked at Li Chaiyuan again, but before she could speak, Li Chaiyuan spoke first:
"Hello grandma, I wish you a happy birthday."
Cat-faced old lady: "......"
This birthday wish silenced the corpse demons.
After a long time, the cat-faced old lady stretched out her hand and leaned in front of Li Chaiyuan.
Li Chaiyuan noticed that the other party also had hairs on the back of his hands, and his nails were very long and pointed.
Without dodging, Li Chaiyuan let the other party's hand touch his face.
The familiar feeling of ice cubes appearing again, which was exactly the same feeling I had in Liu Jinxia's hall that day.
"Grandma, I found out, you little girl, not only handsome, but also very smart.
That day, when my eldest son was leaving, you deliberately asked him to go to your side to wash his hands, so that grandma and I could leave you and go back to him, right?"
"I'm afraid that grandma will forget her way home."
"Really?"
"I also think you are more used to him carrying you."
"No......" The cat-faced old lady's fingers slipped down to Li Chaiyuan's lips, "Now I prefer to carry it on my back."
Immediately afterwards, the cat-faced old lady looked at Qin Li standing behind Chase Li: "What a good-looking girl."
Li Chaiyuan introduced: "She has a brain problem, she can't speak, she has a bad temper, and she bites people at every turn."
"Oh, yes. No wonder when I saw her during the day, she sat there motionless, alas, it's a pity, such a good-looking little girl."
Saying that, the cat-faced old lady focused on Li Chaiyuan's face again: "Xi Ling'er, grandma, I really like you, you can accompany grandma."
"Don't you have ......" Li Chaiyuan immediately realized something and changed his words, "Okay, I'll accompany grandma."
He originally wanted to say that you don't have your own grandson, but isn't this not a pot that doesn't open which pot?
The cat-faced old lady smiled and nodded, and said to the fat master and the others: "Everyone has worked hard, let's eat together."
According to local customs, when hosting a banquet, the first and second batches are eaten, the guests are all entertained, and finally one or two tables are set up for the cooks, helpers and their families to eat.
"Alright, old lady." The fat master and the old grandmothers regained their anger and began to pack their things and prepare to go to dinner.
"Come too."
Li Chaiyuan noticed that the footprints she left behind had watermarks, and the cloth shoes on her feet were also exceptionally dark in color.
This is, betting on the right question?
"Come on, Xi Ling'er, go eat." The fat master grabbed Li Zhuiyuan's hand and interrupted Li Zhuiyuan's thoughts.
Obviously, the cat-faced old lady was not interested in her, a girl with a "bad brain", so he let go of Qin Li's hand, turned his head and said to her:
"You go first...... No, you just stand still."
I don't know where to go, it's better to stay safe in the kitchen, anyway, what the old lady wants is herself.
Li Chaiyuan was taken out of the kitchen, which was originally full of people, but now it seemed dead silent.
It's not that there are no people, on the contrary, there are many people, shoulder to shoulder, crowded together, but no one makes a sound, and there is no movement at all.
The original tables, chairs, and benches have been put away and piled up against the wall, leaving only two slightly empty areas.
There was a table of wine and food in one place, and in the other place were the three singers who sang children's plays.
The others were all standing tightly around, waiting to watch the performance after the meal.
Li Chaiyuan was forcibly pulled to the table by the fat master.
The cat-faced old lady was already sitting in the first seat, and patted the empty seat beside her: "Come on, Xi Ling'er, sit next to grandma."
Li Zhuiyuan had to sit over, during which he deliberately looked in the direction of Shi, but found that Qin Li was actually disobedient and stayed well in the kitchen, so he walked out and stood among the crowd, looking at himself.
People don't care about you anymore, why do you still want to move forward?
The old lady with a cat face also found out and asked with a smile: "Otherwise, let's call her over and sit together."
"No, grandma, she has eaten it, she has a bad temper, and she recognizes life, which can easily make everyone restless."
"Oh? Then why are you still playing with her?"
"Neighbor, then take her to play."
"Hehe, you are kind." The cat-faced old lady's hand was placed on Li Chaiyuan's head and touched gently, "My grandchildren were also brought by me when they were young, and at that time, they also called 'grandma' one by one, but when they grew up, they all wished I died sooner, and they all felt that I was the one who did not die, so that they would not be able to live a good life and make a fortune."
Li Chaiyuan listened quietly.
"I can't figure it out, how could they become like that, maybe, it's really my fault, I lived too long, sucked their blessings, I'm sorry for them?
I think it's better for me to die early and be reborn early, also for their own good, little girl, do you think so?"
If you really think like this, how can you still die?
According to the general outline at the beginning of "Jianghu Zhi Wei Lu", death is an existence catalyzed by resentment.
How can you sit here now without resentment, do you rely on your thoughts?
"Grandma, you can't think like that, my mother told me that when facing an animal, it is ridiculous to reflect on yourself and try to understand it."
"Oh...... Your mother really makes sense." After a pause, the cat-faced old lady laughed to herself, "Hehe, I think so too, but I still feel a little unbearable, after all, I am the one who raised and raised me."
"Then did they treat you as a mother and grandmother?"
"In my eyes, they are still children after all, they are children, they will always make mistakes, right?"
"But they have all been fathers and mothers, and they have all been fathers and mothers, how can they not understand your feelings, but they still do this."
"Yes, they are so hateful!!"
The green light in the cat-faced old lady's eyes began to flow rapidly, and her sharp teeth turned out and her lips were exposed.
"Xi Girl, you are really right, so right, grandma and me, you are really rare!"
This time, it was two hands that grabbed Li Chaiyuan's face and kept kneading it.
Li Chaiyuan felt that his face was about to freeze.
"Milk...... Don't let them go." The cat-faced old lady let go of Li Chaiyuan's face, grabbed the desktop with both hands, and left ten deep dents on it with her nails:
"That's right, how could I let them go, this group of guys is simply worse than us beasts!"
Li Chaiyuan: Worse than us beasts?
So the leader of this corpse demon is a cat?
The cat-faced old lady turned her head to look at Li Chaiyuan and said word by word: "Xi Ling'er, you are optimistic, I will let them pay the price for what they have done!"
Can I see it alive?
Li Zhuiyuan immediately echoed: "Grandma, definitely!"
He didn't feel guilty about the hatred guidance above, he just knew the answer and filled in the process of solving the questions.
If you persuade him to open a little, then his head will be opened first.
At this time, the fat master asked: "Grandma, can we open this table?"
The old lady with a cat face asked: "Are all the people here?"
"It's just us."
"Where's my family's?"
The fat master scratched his head: "You are the only one in my family, none of your children came."
"It's not them, if they borrow other people's land, tables, stools, and chopsticks, and don't invite people to the table, it's unruly."
Li Zhuyuan: "Grandma, they are not hungry, they are already asleep, don't wake them up."
"How can this be done?" The cat-faced old lady suddenly stared at Li Chaiyuan grimly again, "This tail seat, you must call everyone out, otherwise you will lose the rules and be poked in the back."
"Really don't need it, grandma."
"Buzz!"
The cat-faced old lady grabbed Li Zhuiyuan's neck with one hand and lifted him up.
"Xi Ling'er, you were not good just now, hehehe."
……
At this moment, in the bedroom on the second floor, Li Chaiyuan, who was sleeping on the desk with his forehead pressed against the desk, looked painful and fell into suffocation.
……
"Milk...... I was wrong...... I was wrong......"
Li Chaiyuan grabbed the other party's hand with both hands, but he couldn't break it, and his legs could only be kicked aimlessly.
The feeling of death is so clear.
Qin Li, who was standing in the crowd in the distance, her eyelashes began to beat, and her body began to tremble, and the amplitude was getting bigger and bigger.
"Snap!"
The cat-faced old lady let go of her hand, and Li Zhuyuan fell to the ground, freeing himself from restraints, and began to gasp heavily.
She will still kill herself!
She is not a human, she is a corpse demon, and fierceness is her nature!
Li Zhuiyuan turned his head to look at Qin Li in the crowd, Qin Li seemed to have been somewhat comforted after meeting his gaze, and slowly lowered her eyes again, and her body gradually stopped shaking.
……
In the bedroom on the second floor, Li Chaiyuan, who was sleeping on the table, the pain on his face slowly faded, and his breathing calmed down.
……
Cat-faced old lady: "Little girl, you have to teach it well from an early age."
"Grandma, you're right." Li Zhuyuan got up and walked back to the table.
"If you think you can't teach him well, you have to drown him early, so that he doesn't grow up, but it becomes an unconscionable scourge, right?"
Li Chaiyuan picked up a plate of braised fish on the table and switched places with the fried peanuts in front of the cat-faced old lady.
Afterwards, he sat down, nodded and said:
"That's right, yes."
"Hmm......" A smile appeared on the old lady's face again, and she reached out and gently touched the red mark on Li Chaiyuan's neck, "Or are you a good girl, did grandma hurt you just now?"
"Grandma is educating me, I understand."
"Hmm." The cat-faced old lady looked at the fat master, "Go invite someone, invite my family to dinner."
"Okay, let's go now."
The fat master and the old ladies washing dishes got up and left the table to call someone.
And when the fat master walked to the staircase, the stairs that had disappeared reappeared, and he trotted up, the fat on his body shook off.
Coming to the terrace on the second floor, he walked to Li Sanjiang's bedroom, pushed the door in, and saw Li Sanjiang sleeping on the bed.
"Come on, have a meal!"
The fat master walked to the bedside, stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Sanjiang's wrist, and next, he would pull out the man's soul and take it away to eat.
However,
Suddenly,
The fat master only felt that the environment around him was distorted, and he was originally standing in the bedroom, but now he appeared in a square, surrounded by majestic palaces.
Immediately afterwards, he saw in front of him:
There was an old man wearing white ripped pants who was at the front, leading a group of zombies to jump.
The old man jumped, and the zombies behind him also jumped collectively.
The old man didn't stand still when he landed carelessly, and the zombies behind him also staggered collectively.
The fat master was frightened by this scene and directly restored his original color - his face was as paper color.
At this moment, the last zombie in the platoon reacted the slowest and fell, his face looked behind him, and he saw the fat master standing there.
The zombie seemed to see a novelty and jumped over at the fat master.
The fat master immediately started running, and the zombies began to chase.
"Buzz!"
The fat master appeared next to the bed and returned to the bedroom, he reached out and touched his face, and felt a thick powder putty, which was so frightened that his makeup fell off.
"Boom!"
The floor suddenly shook.
It seemed that a behemoth had fallen to the ground.
……
"Come on, Xi Ling'er, they are going to call someone, let's eat first."
The cat-faced old lady reached out and grabbed a handful of dried fruits and placed them in front of Li Chaiyuan.
Li Chaiyuan looked embarrassed, he had tried this thing, let alone eat it, and it was not easy to put it in his mouth.
"Eat ......"
The old lady's tone was suppressed.
In an instant, a strong feeling of nausea and nausea hit him, but looking at the old lady's expression, he could only reach out and cover his mouth to prevent himself from spitting it out.
"Well, it's so good, little girl, that's right, no matter when you can't help but cherish food, grandma, I, in this life, starved before liberation, after liberation, a widow raised three children starved, and the children starved to death when they grew up.
So, grandma really knows the preciousness of food."
Li Chaiyuan could only endure the nausea and nodded, but he really couldn't swallow this bite.
At this moment, the fat master rolled down the stairs in great panic and shouted loudly:
"Grandma, it's not good, grandma, it's not good!"
"What's the matter?"
The cat-faced old lady stood up, this was her "territory", and she was the controller here.
"Bang!"
A pair of boots fell and hit the fat master, directly trampling him into a pile of waste paper and wooden strips.
"Ah......"
The stern guttural sound surrounded the entire banquet hall, causing the temperature here to drop suddenly.
Li Zhuyuan raised his head and looked at the existence that suddenly appeared in front of him with a stunned expression.
This is a statue.
A zombie wearing a Manchu official robe and a flower feather on his head!

There is one more watch before 0:00.
