Chapter 95: Prisoners
"Boy, I warn you, you'd better act quickly. If you don't have my antidote before dawn, you will know how powerful my poison is. This medicine is my own creation, called the One-Day Three-Life Pill."
Night Ghost was walking in front, and because I had taken his poison, he wasn't worried that I would run away from behind. But even if I ran, I certainly wouldn't be able to escape.
Three-Life Pills a Day. Oh my god, that doesn’t sound like poison ?
"If there is no antidote, you will experience life and death three times in one day. The drug's effects will take effect once in the morning, afternoon and evening, and each time it will make you live a life worse than death."
Damn it!
I looked back at the place where Lu Xiaofeng and I were before. I was now quite a distance away from there. Even if Shangguan Xian came back, he probably wouldn't be able to catch up.
I didn't expect that this operation was like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth. Not only did I not get the person's soul back , but I also lost my whole body.
"Hey old man, where are you taking me?"
Don't give up until the last step, maybe the opportunity to escape will suddenly appear.
"Ghost tribe."
Night Ghost responded coldly.
Ghost tribe? Hey, it seems that my uncle has gone to the ghost tribe. If I can meet him there, then I will be saved. I hurriedly followed him without wasting any more time.
The Night Ghost glanced at me and grinned, "He who knows the current situation is a hero."
"I don't care whether you are handsome or not, you have to give me the antidote on time. Also, why did you bring me back to your ghost tribe? What do you want to do to me?"
No matter what this old eunuch wants to do, I can be sure that it is not a good thing. He must be trying to harm me.
"I'll show you something fun."
This guy had a sinister smile on his face.
"Fun stuff? I see you want to fucking play with me, right? F*ck!"
“Hehehe!”
His face was slightly grim and he showed a hideous smile.
"Damn it, can you please stop laughing? It's painful to watch."
…
Yegui, the old eunuch, is really a weirdo. He doesn't like riding in a car. Damn, I've been walking behind him for ten days, but I haven't reached the ghost tribe yet. It's been so long, I guess the old man, Master Uncle, has already left the ghost tribe. My little plan is going to fail.
But I didn't dare to say anything more, let alone delay. Because in these ten days, I have tasted the taste of that shitty three-life-a-day pill twice. It's really worse than death.
Once the drug took effect, my skin became numb, my hair stood up, and I collapsed to the ground, unable to move. It felt like there were thousands of ants crawling all over every inch of my skin, biting me frantically. The pain and itching were enough to make my brain crash.
"Night ghost brother."
When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Calling by a nice name is just a matter of curling your tongue. There's nothing wrong with that.
"Look, I've already been hit by your Three Life Pills a Day, so why don't you return my human soul to me first? I can't run away now."
Now twenty days have passed in a month. If I don’t get the soul back, I will be in danger.
The night ghost glanced at me, then made a strange seal with his right hand. I felt my hair suddenly stand on end, and I shuddered.
A breeze blew by and my whole body shivered, then I felt as comfortable as if I was standing under the warm sunshine in winter.
"You are quite smart. You even knew to set up protection for your soul. I have released the soul-binding spell, and your soul has returned to your body."
I finally put down the heavy weight on my heart, but now there is something more serious. I was poisoned by his three-life pill, and I became his captive.
We slept in the and after walking for another half a month, I had no idea where I was.
"Brother Nightghost, it's been almost a month. Where are you ghosts? When can we get there?"
Although it might be safer on the road, once we really reach the ghost tribe, I'm afraid that Night Ghost will take action. But I still couldn't help it.
"We'll be there soon. Don't worry. I won't let you die before we reach the ghost tribe."
Damn it, what this means is that as soon as I get to the ghost tribe, they will kill me.
What he meant by "almost there" was that we had walked for another eight days. On the ninth day, which was the thirty-fourth day of being a night ghost captive, in the evening, we seemed to have finally reached the ghost tribe's location.
Half a month ago, we entered a deserted area. There was nothing but jungle and mountains, no human habitation, no houses, and not a single person in sight.
When it was getting dark, the night ghost suddenly stopped.
"The entrance to the ghost tribe will only open after dark. We will continue to move forward after dark."
Damn, this place is spooky enough. Why do we have to wait until night? Damn!
Of course, even if I had an opinion, I wouldn't dare to say anything. I don't want to experience the effects of the Yiri Sansheng Pills again.
During the break, I ate some snacks I bought in my bag. Damn it, I get angry just thinking about food. I don't know what kind of evil magic this damn eunuch has practiced. In the past month, I haven't seen him eat anything.
Damn, it's really a way to save money. Luckily, I bought a big bag of food when I passed by a supermarket a few days ago, but there is not much left. If I don't go to the ghost tribe again, I will probably have to eat weeds on the roadside.
"Brother Night Ghost, how is the food for your ghost tribe? Three dishes and one soup? Four dishes and one soup? How many meals a day? Is there meat? Is there a midnight snack?"
I was chewing on the last piece of sausage and chatting about random things.
It seems that Ye Gui's injuries have not recovered yet. During his rest days, he meditates alone, looking like he is healing his wounds, just like the meditation and exercise in martial arts TV shows.
I have thought about escaping while he was healing more than once, but when I thought about the taste of that Three Life Pills a Day, I immediately gave up the idea of running away.
Night Ghost closed his eyes and ignored me, I was used to it. This guy basically said nothing except some warnings to me.
It was getting dark soon. My phone ran out of battery long ago, and I forgot to calculate what day it was, but it should be mid-June now. Even after it got dark, it was still quite hot.
"By the way, do the ghosts have air conditioning? Is there electricity hiding in such a shabby place? You usually..."
"Shut up and keep going. We have to reach the entrance of the ghost tribe before midnight."
Night Ghost stood up and snorted coldly, then took the lead and continued to move forward. I cursed inwardly and followed him. From what he said, it seemed that there was still half a day's journey.
