Volume 1 Chapter 48: Why the Little Monster Baby Came
It's strange to say that the crying baby last night was clearly in the inn, but when he opened the door to talk to his parents with a fan, the crying stopped unexpectedly. He stumbled back to bed and was about to fall asleep.
, but the crying sound reached her ears again, so annoyed that she got up and wanted to look again, but as soon as she opened the door, the crying sound suddenly disappeared again.
After struggling like this for three or four times, she was too lazy to hold the fan, and directly ordered Ruoli to wait outside the door. After Ruoli confirmed which room the crying came from, she went to have a good talk with the baby's parents.
Ruoli waited outside the door for more than two hours, and the crying did not stop. She was able to sleep peacefully for half the night with a fan. As soon as she got up this morning, she yawned and went to the shopkeeper to ask him about the inn.
Besides myself, who else came with children, and which room did they stay in?
The shopkeeper told her without any resentment that she was the only one with a child in the inn. He also said that the other people in the inn were kept awake for half the night by the crying, and that several guests had come to check out this morning.
house.
This fan was very depressing. When I got back to my room, I lay down listlessly on the table, not wanting to move at all.
Not to mention, without Guan Shutao around, there is no one with whom she can talk, laugh and quarrel. It’s really boring. Boyuan has been very well-behaved recently, but he babbling and can’t speak. If this continues
, her beauty will fade before her old age, and she will die of depression.
Holding the fan and thinking for a while, I decided to go out for a walk with Boyuan in my arms, maybe I could meet Guan Shutao in some nook and corner.
Outside the inn is a noisy and bustling wide long street. On both sides of the street, there are all kinds of silks, jewelry, fruits and vegetables, snacks, delicious food, fun things, and acrobatics. But these things are only available at the beginning.
It looks fresh and fun, but once you see it too much and eat it all, after the novelty wears off, you will no longer be interested.
She wandered aimlessly on the street until three o'clock in the morning, holding a fan and being bored, she walked back to the inn. She called the waiter to bring hot water for bathing, and she skillfully washed the baby first and waited for him to sleep.
After that, he cleaned himself up again. Finally, with nothing to do, he grabbed Ruoli from the treasure bag and put it on the round table, picked up the diced chicken specially prepared for it and fed it to it.
The flattered little owl shook its head and refused to open its mouth. Unlike His Highness, it did not need to be fed by others as long as the food was of moderate size. The smelly girl must have had bad intentions for being so diligent, so she gave her a weak look and said
: "What do you want to do?"
"What else can I do? I'm just bored!" He shrugged while holding the fan, put down his chopsticks, took out a small bag of melon seeds from his treasure bag and started to eat them. Then he asked aloud, "Vulture,
What do you think happened to the child last night?"
Ruoli picked up a piece of diced chicken, swallowed it with a look of enjoyment, and replied to her: "It's either a human or a ghost!"
"That's right!" Zhifan agreed casually.
She is not afraid of ghosts, and even less so for a few-month-old ghost baby. However, it is a bit annoying for the ghost to hide in the dark and come out crying in the middle of the night, disturbing her dreams. After thinking about it,
Holding the fan, he said again: "When you are full, go and guard the door for me to see if it dares to come tonight. If it doesn't come, I can sleep peacefully. If it dares to come, you can
Catch it. It’s good to have one on either side, and it’s good to have a pair. I don’t mind finding another companion for Boyuan.”
Ruoli looked at her in astonishment, speechless, but his expression was extremely unhappy. But there was nothing he could do, my aunt's words were imperial edicts, and those who disobeyed them would be beheaded.
After devouring a plate of diced chicken, Ruoli gave many instructions, telling him to be careful when holding the fan to look after His Highness, and never to kick him out of bed again. After all, after he went out, no one would be able to give it to His Highness.
Used as a meat pad.
Zhifan smiled and promised that he would sleep with Boyuan in his arms and would never kick him out of bed. Although Ruoli was dubious, he still behaved and went to watch the door.
The inn is divided into two floors. It has the structure of a courtyard. In the center of the courtyard is a rockery that is as tall as a person. There are some flowers and plants around the rockery and a wild-growing Podocarpus pine. The pine tree is higher than the rockery, which is quite suitable for little owls to hide.
.
Its sharp little melon grasped a thick branch, and its round orange pupils stared unblinkingly at the southeastern building. Because it faces the street, there is only one room there, which is where the fan lives.
That room.
At the beginning of Haishi, the candlelight was extinguished in the room where the fan was holding the fan. At the end of Haishi, only one room in the inn was still lit. That was the diligent shopkeeper waiting for the last batch of guests to come and stay at the inn.
Afterwards, the inn was completely plunged into darkness.
The night is dark and windy, and everything is silent. This is the best time for ghosts and monsters to be active.
Suddenly there was a rustling sound in the darkness, and then, a louder cry resounded throughout the inn. The cry was like a hungry baby who couldn't find its mother. It was aggrieved and very pitiful.
.
However, Ruoli could see clearly that the thing was not a normal baby, it was clearly a little monster that came out of the ground.
The little thing was smooth and translucent, and its entire body was translucent blood-red. Its body had bones, tendons, internal organs, and other objects vaguely visible, and its appearance was similar to that of an underdeveloped embryo in its mother's womb.
But at this moment, it stuck its butt out, crawling forward on all fours like an eight or nine-year-old baby, crying at the same time, crying heartbreakingly and lung-breakingly.
Ruo Liyuan wanted to catch it off guard and take it to the fan to claim credit, but as soon as it spread its wings, the pine needles around it immediately began to stir. The movement was neither big nor small, and happened to be heard by the little weird baby, so it turned around
Revealing his two cute little baby teeth, he giggled at Ruoli, his eyebrows crooked and innocent.
Perhaps it was because His Highness was a baby now, Ruoli was really infected by its smile, but that didn't mean it wouldn't catch it. With a pounce, Ruoli felt like he had an extra flesh under his body.
The Huhu little thing was as slippery as a loach, but when it raised its head to take a closer look, it felt like it was empty, and it suddenly hit the ground hard.
The pain was not very painful, but it was a pity that the little freak escaped. Ruoli stood up and instinctively dug his claws into the soil, trying to dig out the little freak from the ground, but it was all in vain.
The little owl turned its neck and looked around. Seeing that there was no movement around it, it simply transformed back into the body of a divine servant, snapped its fingers to stop time, and took off the 'Ice Breaking' sword from his waist.
The moment the fan was hidden in the treasure bag, Ruoli took back his sword from the storage space of the treasure bag. At this time, he pulled out the ice-breaking sword and thrust it into the ground. His powerful sword
He was so angry that he immediately shook the Earth God out of his body.
The short and fat earth man was leaning on a fairy crutch hanging from a wine gourd. He leaned forward and backward to hold his forehead. Although his eyes were closed, he could feel the world spinning, and there was a constant buzzing in his ears and heart. Waiting.
After recovering from his dizziness, the Earth God opened his eyes and shouted angrily: "Who doesn't have long eyes..." The word "dog thing" stuck on his neck, because opposite him, a handsome young man with stern features and arrogance gave him a cold look.
The sword was pointed directly at his throat.
"Master Shen, if we have something to say, let's talk it over. Swords don't have eyes!" The Tudong looked sad, and the corners of his mouth twitched unnaturally. Although he didn't know Ruoli, he recognized that the sword in Ruoli's hand was a first-class divine sword, an ordinary fairy.
The attendants are not qualified to wear it at all, only the immortals and gods who have a good reputation in the heaven can match it.
Seeing that the other party remained unmoved and only looked at him coldly with a pair of stern eyes, the Lord of the Land was really a little panicked. However, he thought that although he had no great achievements in protecting a piece of land, he had no major fault. At most, he was just a little greedy.
Rather than violating the laws of heaven, he simply apologized with a shy face and said: "I don't know that the Lord of Gods is coming here, so I am disappointed. I still hope that the Lord of Gods will come. Don't be surprised!"
Ruoli raised his chin and scolded: "Old man, don't try to slander me here. As a landowner who protects a land, you can't even watch your own baby, and let it come out in the middle of the night and howl in distress.
Qingmeng, was your family's ancestral grave dug up or something like that?"
The Earth God's smile froze, and he blew his beard and glared in anger, shouting: "The Lord of Gods must not talk nonsense. This little old man has been alone for hundreds of thousands of years. He has no parents, no wife or children. Where can he find a baby to take care of?"
"Oh? So it seems that I have wronged you?" Ruoli smiled and suddenly changed the subject, "Since it's not your baby, why don't you hand it over quickly." As he said,
The sword in his hand was pushed forward an inch closer.
If he had pushed it even half an inch closer, Tudigong would have been splashed with blood on the spot. Wiping his hands with cold sweat, Tudigong had the intention to use the Earth Immortal Wand to knock the divine sword away, and then retracted underground to continue living his leisure life, but after thinking about it, he decided to let it go
He retreated to the ground, but the other party was still able to shake him out, so he could only cry out with a grimace: "Shenjun, you are wronged! I have never seen the baby you mentioned. If you don't believe it, little old man
I can take you to my house to search."
Ruoli didn't think that the Tugui Guild had hidden a little strange baby in his home. This move was just to give him a show of strength. Now that his goal had been achieved, Ruoli also put away his sword and only slapped the Tugui Guild three times on the shoulder.
Next, he said earnestly: "Look at what you said, you and I are both working under the Emperor of Heaven, so we can be regarded as colleagues. How can I not believe you? But, we have to catch the ghost doll, and we have to worry about it.
Lord Tutu, do me a favor and find out where it is hiding?"
"No trouble, no trouble, I'll help you look for it right now." The Tuigong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly clenched the Earth Fairy Wand and slammed it on the ground, closed his eyes, and pointed two fingers at his Yangbai point.
, and then used the 'earth spirit technique' to detect the movements underground.
After a moment, the fairy crutch in his hand suddenly turned around and pointed to the southeast. Looking up, it was the room where the fan lived.
If the way of separation is not good, the 'quiet time technique' will only work on mortals and some demons and ghosts with low spiritual power. The little monster baby has already taken form, and must have already cultivated into a ghost, so this technique may not be effective on it.
Coincidentally, at this time, a familiar cry came from upstairs. Ruoli immediately realized that something was wrong, and was shocked and said: "Isn't it good, Your Highness?"
