I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster

Chapter 38: This grandson wants to be a grandpa



Sitting in front of the easel, the person who depicted the human skin was blood red all over.

Because he has no human skin, his flesh and blood are exposed to the air, and he can even clearly see his blood vessels beating.

As for the facial features, there are only a few blood holes left.

Looking at the pen in his hand, it's also not easy.

The barrel of the pen looked like a human bone, and the material of the bristles was unknown.

When this man was painting the skin, every time he drew a few strokes, he would turn his head towards the sleepy maid and nanny next to him, open his blood-hole-like mouth, and take a breath.

What he inhales is the yang energy and vitality of these people.

Every time you take a breath of yang energy and vitality, the maid and the wet nurse will have a few more white hairs on their heads, and the wrinkles around the corners of their eyes will also increase a bit.

And this man, after absorbing the yang qi and vitality, first let it go through the body for a circle, and then opened his mouth, spit out a snake-like forked tongue, licked it on the tip of the pen, and then continued to paint the human skin.

Obviously, it uses the yang qi and vitality of people as its ink.

Only in this way can people's skin be immortal, suppress its deadly and demonic aura, and prevent others from seeing its flaws.

The paper figurines who went to the inn to attack and set fire before were placed on the desk beside them, looking like naive dolls with New Year's pictures.

No matter who it is, it will be difficult for them to be linked to the ghosts who kill people.

Although Zhu Xiucai had already guessed that Zhang Benwu had a problem, he couldn't help shivering after seeing the strange scene of the painted skin with his own eyes.

Even Su Jianqing had a solemn expression.

Only Qin Shaoyou and Su Tingyu reacted differently.

Both are not normal.

When Qin Shaoyou saw the fake Zhang Benwu, the thought of "this guy should be delicious" appeared in his heart again.

Even, I don't know if it was a psychological factor or what was going on, but he actually smelled an alluring fragrance, which stimulated his taste buds and made saliva secrete from his mouth.

In short, it is: this product is so fragrant, I really want to eat it!

Su Tingyu was also very interested in fake Zhang Benwu.

But she didn't want to eat fake Zhang Benwu, but thought that this demon looked so novel and interesting, and wanted to bring it back to the Jade Emperor Temple to dismantle the bones and shave the flesh for anatomical research.

The two people who became interested in the fake Zhang Benwu quickly noticed the abnormality of each other.

They invariably raised their heads and glanced at each other.

After seeing the expectation and excitement on the other's face, they all frowned again, thinking:

What's wrong with this woman (man), why is she so excited when she sees a ghost? Is there something wrong with the brain?

Immediately afterwards, they thought together: Could he (she) be like me, wanting to study (eat) ghosts?

Is this still a fellow man?

Qin Shaoyou and Su Tingyu were not happy, but secretly guarded.

One is that he is afraid that the other party will steal his food.

The other is that they are worried that the other party will take away their research materials.

Su Jianqing didn't notice that her sister was staring at Qin Shaoyou.

She said in a very low voice: "It's a painted ghost! This kind of evil ghost likes to rip the skins of living people to make clothes, and mix in the crowd to steal the yang and vitality of the living people. Those who are sucked by it, light up the yang and vitality of the living people. If you are seriously ill, you will suffer from bad luck and even die!"

Zhu Xiucai was puzzled: "Why did the painted skin ghost pretend to be Zhang Benwu? It can't be just to steal the yang and vitality of Zhang's servants, right?"

Su Tingyu was eager to try: "Why do you think so much? If you catch it and ask, you'll know it all? Taking off the skin is when the skin ghost is at its weakest. With the strength of the four of us, it's not difficult to catch it alive."

She couldn't wait to capture the Painted Skin Ghost alive and conduct various experiments.

Without waiting for Qin Shaoyou to stop him, Su Jianqing took the lead and said, "No. The Painted Skin Ghost pretending to be Zhang Benwu definitely has a big plan, and it is probably related to the follow-up actions of the Black Lotus Sect. Fighting the grass to startle the snake will make the demons of the Black Lotus Sect aware of it, but it will ruin the business."

Su Tingyu felt a little regretful that the proposal was rejected, but she did not insist.

Qin Shaoyou also thought that he couldn't scare the snake, but if he didn't do anything, he would be a little unwilling.

So he asked: "Two Daoists Su, is there any way you can smite it without letting the skinny ghost notice it?"

Su Tingyu shook her head.

Her Taoist methods are all upright and upright, and there are no tricks of yin people.

Su Jianqing had an idea: "I can curse under the human skin, activate it when needed, and temporarily ban the painted ghost, so that it can't move, but I need someone to lead it away from the human skin."

"How long does it take?" Zhu Xiucai asked.

"At least five breaths of time."

"Five breaths? I'll try."

Zhu Xiucai quietly climbed down the wall and disappeared into the darkness.

After a while, several dog barks came from outside the big wall of Zhang Mansion.

The Painted Ghost in the study suddenly stood up after hearing these barks.

Because these barks are very similar to the barks of the dog that Qin Shaoyou bought.

The Painted Ghost was about to rush out of the study subconsciously, but soon realized that he hadn't worn human skin yet, so he held back.

After thinking for a while, it walked behind the closed door of the study and shouted to the outside: "Come on!"

The nursing home who was guarding in the distance heard the voice and hurried over, asking across the door, "What are your orders, young master?"

"Go and see where the dog barking is coming from, and bring that dog to me."

The voice of the Painted Skin Ghost now has changed from when Qin Shaoyou and others saw it in the afternoon.

The hoarseness was obviously much less, and it was more like Zhang Benwu's voice.

Although the nursing home outside the door was surprised, they didn't dare to question, let alone refuse.

Apart from leaving a few elites to continue to watch the hospital, the rest of the people all scattered out to find the dog.

But painting Peders is still not satisfied.

It really wanted to find that dog and cook it for Zhang Shilang to show his filial piety.

So after instructing the nursing home outside the door, it turned back to the desk, picked up the New Year picture doll on the table with its skinless hands, and muttered words.

After a while, these cute, chubby and cute New Year picture dolls swayed and turned into pale and eerie paper figures, and got out through the gaps in the doors and windows.

At the same time, Zhu Xiucai, who is as smart as a cat, has returned to the roof.

He couldn't wait to ask: "How is it, did the curse succeed?"

"Success." Su Jianqing nodded.

In the short period of time when the skin ghost went to call the nursing home, Su Jianqing, relying on her as a ghost cultivator, went straight through the roof, flew to the human skin, and added a few strokes of mana to it.

The few strokes she added formed a curse, but because it was colorless and traceless, the skin ghost couldn't even notice it.

Qin Shaoyou was worried about another thing: "Monk Ma and the others are still outside. You pretend to be a dog and you won't hurt them, right?"

Zhu Xiucai said, "Don't worry, my lord, I sneaked out to say hello to Monk Ma and the others. And the position where I learned to bark was far away from where they were hiding."

"That's good." Qin Shaoyou was relieved this time.

Now that the fake Zhang Benwu's identity has been discovered, and his painting skin has been manipulated, Qin Shaoyou and the others will leave Zhang's residence and go to the next suspicious spot for investigation.

It is also a stepping-stone for the encirclement and suppression operations after the arrival of the large troops.

But just as they were about to leave, a servant led Shilang Zhang over with a lantern.

Zhang Shilang was about to rest, but when he heard the noise outside, he called someone to ask, only to find out that his grandson had sent the nursing home to find the dog, so he came over to have a look.

Zhang Benwu in the study looked a little flustered when he noticed the arrival of Zhang Shilang.

It didn't care to continue painting the skin, and quickly grabbed it and put it on, and blew a black breath at the sleepy maid and nurse.

The maid and the nanny immediately woke up. While blaming themselves, she was also wondering, why did she fall asleep inexplicably?

Zhang Shilang quickly entered the study.

After Zhang Benwu greeted him, he said, "It's so late and I haven't slept yet, what are you doing?"

Painted Ghosts put on a serious look of learning.

"My grandson is reading the "Book of Documents". I used to rely on the sixteen-character heart biography to get rid of ghosts, which made me realize the importance of the book of sages and sages."

Zhang Shilang was really overjoyed. After a few words of encouragement, he asked him a few more questions in the "Book of Documents". Seeing that he answered all well, he was very relieved and nodded again and again.

"If you have any questions about your studies in the future, you can ask me at any time."

"The grandson thanked the grandfather."

The Painted Ghost accompanied Master Zhang Shilang to be kind to his grandson for a while, and then suddenly said, "Grandfather, can you tell me about your past office?"

"Why do you suddenly remember to ask this?"

"Because the grandson will be like his grandfather in the future, to be a clean and well-known minister who cares for the people and takes the country's government as his responsibility!"

"Hahaha."

Zhang Shilang was delighted by the flattery of his "good grandson", and he really talked about what happened when he was an official.

In the process of painting skin ghost, he raised several questions from time to time, and calmly changed the topic from how to be a good official to talking about Zhang Shilang's interpersonal relationship in the officialdom.

Zhang Shilang, who has been immersed in officialdom for many years, although he is an old fox, how can he suspect that his good grandson has bad intentions?

Only when he is curious.

But Qin Shaoyou and others, who were lying on the roof, felt that something was wrong the more they listened.

This skin ghost really wants to be an official!

To be precise, it wants to be Zhang Shilang!
