Chapter 99: Ghost Doctor
Night Ghost seems to be very famous in the outside world, even terrifying. Why is he so shabby in the ghost realm? And even if no one paid attention to us just now, it is impossible that no one recognized Night Ghost?
At this time, I started to imagine automatically.
This guy couldn't make it in the ghost realm, so he left the ghost realm and ventured into the outside world. He actually made it out and became famous, but his reputation was notorious. The so-called four ghosts of the ghost clan should have been given to them by people from the outside world without authorization.
The gate of the courtyard was not locked, but it looked like it had not been opened for many years. Night Ghost pushed open the gate and entered the courtyard first. I looked around again from behind, trying to remember some of the terrain and roads, and then looked at the direction we came from. Damn, there are too many and too messy paths, and I can only remember the general direction.
"Come in and clean up."
The voice of the night ghost came from the yard. Damn, you didn't bring me back just to clean for you, did you?
As a result, we were busy until the afternoon of the next day to clean up the courtyard and several houses. Although this ghost area is underground, it is not completely closed. You can still see the sky and the sun, but it is blocked by the surrounding mountains and cliffs, making the whole ghost area very dark.
There were three small houses, two for living and one for kitchen. Although there were some utensils in the kitchen, many of them had been damaged, and there was no food or vegetables, so it was impossible to cook.
This bastard, he can go without meals, so should I starve with him?
"Brother Night Ghost, do you have any food at home? I've been hungry for several days. If I don't eat, I'm going to die."
"There is a small restaurant not far away. Go eat there by yourself. The ghost tribe can also use the money outside."
Night Ghost threw a sentence at him, and then added : "Don't even think about running away. You probably don't want to try the taste of the Three Life Pills a Day again."
Damn it!
After leaving the yard, I stood on the slope at the door and looked down for a long time. Finally, I saw a stone pillar in front of a house in the distance with a flag fluttering on it.
Fortunately, I have good eyesight. Although it is quite far away, I can see that there is a set of bowls and chopsticks painted on the flag. It should be the small restaurant.
I walked along the crisscrossing paths for a long time before I arrived at the door of this small restaurant. The restaurant was not big, it was a bungalow building, and its ground was higher than the surrounding area, probably so that people could see it from far away.
There are stairs made of stone and mud in front of the door, and you can hear the sounds from inside the store before you even go up.
The layout of the restaurant is very similar to the ancient restaurants shown on TV, with a total of ten or so wooden tables and a counter in the middle. It is noon now, and there are quite a lot of people eating.
The ghost clan has the ability to control and raise ghosts, and they also practice the way of ghosts. Logically speaking, they should look like neither human nor ghost, and have a creepy and terrifying appearance.
In fact, these ghosts are no different from the people outside. I couldn't tell the difference just from their appearance. So I entered the restaurant without attracting the attention of other diners.
"Big brother, what would you like to eat?"
I found an empty table and just sat down when a teenager ran over and asked .
"What do you have to eat?"
The boy's eyes lit up and he smiled, "Brother, don't you live nearby?"
Not only is it not nearby, it's probably hundreds or thousands of miles away from here.
"Yeah, it's some distance from here."
The young man took out a piece of wood from behind and handed it , saying, "Brother, take a look at it yourself."
Oh my god, the menu. I almost vomited blood after taking a look at all the dishes.
The cheapest dish is a bowl of noodles, which costs 30 yuan. And the vegetables are 50 yuan a portion. Damn, is this a shady shop? There is a line of words under the board: Cash only!
Depend on!
I looked at the other people eating, and it seemed that no one ordered only rice and a dish. If I just ordered a bowl of noodles, it would be too embarrassing. In the end, I ordered a bowl of noodles, a dish, and a bowl of rice, which cost more than 100 yuan in total.
The food came quickly and I started eating. I only had a few hundred dollars in cash, which was not enough for three meals.
"It's trading day again in a few days, what are you going to buy?"
"Let's buy some for home use."
"He doesn't dare to buy anything without thinking. If his wife knew he was wasting money, she would hang him up and beat him."
"Hahaha."
I looked and saw a few people sitting around a table talking.
Are the people of this ghost tribe living a good life?
I was thinking about it when I suddenly felt a tingling sensation on my right hand. My heart tightened. There was a ghost!
I quickly put down my bowl and chopsticks and looked around cautiously. There were twelve other customers in the store besides me. There was a woman with her head down at the counter, and the boy should be in the kitchen at the back.
These thirteen people didn't look abnormal, and they were all doing their own things, eating and chatting.
Yue Lun couldn't have sensed it wrong, there must be a ghost here. The ghost clan controlled and raised ghosts, so it was normal for them to have ghosts in their homes or to have ghosts following them.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, someone exclaimed in surprise, and a man at a table not far away turned his head and looked in my direction. He was an old man, with half of his hair and beard white, and half black and half white in a very even pattern.
The old man seemed to be sizing me up. I quickly forced a smile and continued eating.
"Master Ghost Doctor, what's wrong?"
I glanced over there and saw a young man sitting next to the old man asking him. The old man nodded at me, smiled, turned back and said.
"fine."
After finishing my meal and paying the bill, I quickly got up and left, but as soon as I walked down the slope of the restaurant, I heard shouting from behind.
"Wait a minute, little brother."
I immediately became alert and turned around to see that it was the old man from before. The young man seemed to call him "ghost doctor", which was a really weird name. Could he be a doctor who treated ghosts?
I was alert, but I still asked carefully, "Is there something the old man wants to ask me?"
The old man walked over quickly with a smile on his face. He looked to be in his seventies or eighties, but he looked very energetic.
Damn, what does this old man want to do? He has a malicious smile on his face.
"Little brother, are you from outside?"
I was startled and took two steps back, staring at him closely. How could this guy not see?
"Don't be nervous. The ghost tribe has had a lot of exchanges with the outside world over the years. It's not uncommon to see outsiders in the ghost realm."
I frowned, not daring to let my guard down, and not knowing what the old man was trying to do.
