Chapter 239 The Purpose of the Wandering Taoist Priest?
"This inn burned paper ingots and found three copper coins." Xun Xi grabbed three copper coins and gave two of them to Wu Maang and Chen Mo.
In addition there are two room keys.
"What to do next?" Chen Mo took the key and the copper coins and said tremblingly: "Do you want to move in? Is it too risky?"
".oh?"
When Xun Xi heard this, he glanced at Chen Mo. Wasn't the prediction novel on his phone updated? Or is it that the inn’s setting of death at dawn is only for me? Or is it only for residents in rooms with floor font sizes? Because it's too strong? Several guesses flashed through Xun Xi's mind.
But soon, he put away his distracting thoughts.
"fine."
In any case, if my guess is correct, the reason why the inn must die at dawn is because the number of residents inside exceeds the capacity limit.
But I know the problem.
Then things will be easier to handle.
Aren’t there many residents? Then I'll kill them, send a few away, and reduce the number, right?
If you can’t solve the problem of the inn, you can’t solve the problem of the residents?
"Let's go." Xun Xi raised the dog-headed guillotine and waved his hand: "Go up to the first floor. Let's go to the herringbone room first to visit our friends there."
"Squeak~"
Stepping on the wooden stairs, the sound of wood squeezing echoed in the dark inn. Xun Xi took Wu Maang and Chen Mo to the first floor, where the herringbone room was located. Chen Mo's target was suddenly the number 12 on the left hand side of the stairs.
"Open the door."
"Huh? Oh!" Chen Mo was stunned after hearing Xun Xi's words, and then he realized what he was doing, took out the key and walked to the door carefully.
The door is covered with all kinds of charms.
In addition, there is a scarlet nail staring at the four corners of the door, which is surrounded by iron chains, and is tied together in the middle of the door, and finally is completely bolted with a gold lock. To be honest, just looking at this appearance, it looks like it is suppressing some horrible and strange evil spirit.
"Kacha."
Chen Mo slowly put the key into the golden lock, turned it hard, and then hurried to Wu Maang's side, and followed Wu Maang to stand behind Xun Xi.
At the same time, the golden lock clanged to the ground.
The chain suddenly opened.
"boom!"
The next second, the talisman on the door was instantly blown away, and the entire door suddenly opened. Behind the door, a face covered with sarcoma was seen grinning, and the mouth became wider and wider in the laughter. Finally, it turned into a bloody mouth and rushed towards Xun Xi.
It's like a scare box.
As soon as the door opened, the monster inside launched a surprise attack, as if it had been prepared. After he pounced, Chen Mo saw its lineup clearly.
There is only one head.
There were tumors all below the head, one after another, one after another, and finally turned into the neck of the head, like a bloated snake.
I saw the sarcoma head flying out.
I saw Xun Xi raising the dog-headed guillotine.
Then--
"Uh-huh!"
——
Xun Xi raised the knife and dropped it, and the sarcoma head fell to the ground with a sound. His expression remained fierce and ferocious, and it dissipated without even having time to react.
"Fancy."
Xun Xi shook his head, and then strode into the herringbone room No. 12. The experience just made him confirm one thing: "As expected, the rooms are allocated according to strength."
After speaking, he glanced at Chen Mo again.
Strictly speaking, the current Chen Mo is actually not weak. However, although he does not lack strength, his mental quality is completely substandard. Needless to say, if Chen Mo had been standing in Xun Xi's position, he would have had his neck bitten off by the sarcoma head.
"continue."
Xun Xi looked around the room, without stopping, but went directly to Room 11, and then pulled the confused Chen Mo over.
"It's time for you to show off your skills."
"Ah?" Chen Mo blinked.
"Ah, what? Let's see if your ability can be used on the room. I guess this room is a confined space, and your supernatural powers can be used."
".oh!"
This time Chen Mo finally reacted, and his face suddenly showed an excited expression. Although he doesn't have the courage to start a group physically, he still has the courage to stand and deal damage, and it's very big. Thinking of this, Chen Mo immediately opened his mouth and put his hand on the door of Room 11.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Mo's body changed.
I saw that his lips were slightly deformed and became somewhat feminine. The bright lipstick and good shape make him look a little weird.
Immediately afterwards——
"Woo." The cry started.
Originally, the voice of the mourning girl would not be heard. However, after being controlled by Chen Mo, the cry that came out of his mouth was no longer as hidden as before, but the effect was still powerful. The cry even ignored the barrier of the door and fell directly into the room, echoing in the room.
Also appearing at the same time were wet handprints.
Ghost handprints also appeared in the room. A cold mist filled the corridor, and ghostly handprints and songs emerged one after another.
It's like a song and dance.
They were husband and wife during their lifetime, and the supernatural beings they transformed into after death were in perfect harmony. One sang and the other danced, and they completely complemented each other.
More importantly, they are all mortal beings.
Although supernatural beings with certain death rules are easy to deal with as long as they find their weaknesses, they are equally invincible as long as they are used in the right place.
"Boom!"
The singing and handprints lasted less than thirty seconds before a loud noise came from Room No. 11, and then the door opened automatically.
And behind the door, there was a dead body.
The corpse was covering its ears, and its whole body was covered with handprints, as if someone pressed their palms hard against his skin from inside his body.
"Uh-huh!"
Xun Xi was not careless. He stood at the door of the room and threw the dog-headed guillotine in. He cut off the corpse's neck with a single click. Then he saw the corpse suddenly let out an unwilling roar and then disappeared in a burst of smoke. . It looked like it was really pretending to be dead just now.
"interesting."
Xun Xi touched his chin when he saw this: "Most of the supernatural beings should be overwhelmed by the supernatural power and find it difficult to maintain their own sanity."
Although not without exception.
For example, Lin Xiao and Si Nian.
But Lin Xiao was sent to the ambulance of the Love Without Borders Lunatic Asylum just because he became a supernatural being, and Si Nian was because he became one with Xun Xi.
They are all rare exceptions.
But in this Ghost Gate Inn, a kid with a herringbone number in Room 11 and an absolutely low status actually knows how to confuse his opponent by pretending to be dead?
Why does it have such intelligence?
".Next."
After Xun Xi thought for a while, he took Chen Mo and started to sweep the room with the herringbone number. Facts have proved that Chen Mo's supernatural powers are simply miraculous in this place. Each room was broken into by him, and the supernatural beings in the room either stayed in the room until they were killed by Chen Mo.
Either rush out of the room and be killed by Xun Xi.
However, as more ghosts were killed, Xun Xi's expression became more serious, and he was not at all happy that he had solved the problem of too many residents in the inn.
the reason is simple.
"All are intelligent!?"
——
That's right.
From herringbone number ten to herringbone number one, all the supernatural beings in the ten rooms are all intelligent! The supernatural being located in the herringbone room No. 1 even took the initiative to ambush at the door. The moment Chen Mo made a move, he made a shameless sneak attack and almost killed Chen Mo.
This is no joke.
So far, the reason why humans can balance each other with supernatural beings is because humans are far more intelligent than dull supernatural beings.
But what about now?
If a supernatural being possesses intelligence, it does not have the weak human body, and there is no risk of losing control. It can even devour other supernatural beings to become stronger.
For such existences, one or two is okay.
Thousands or hundreds?
Then humanity is definitely hopeless.
But now, the supernatural beings in this Ghost Gate Inn all show a tendency to be intelligent, and this is just the last sign.
What about the place name?
What about Tianzihao?
Thinking of this, Xun Xi suddenly had a terrible guess: "That wandering Taoist priest...could he want to use this inn to raise ghosts?"
It's like raising a gu.
It's just that if you raise Gu to the end, you will only raise a Gu King.
However, if the wandering Taoist priests continue to send out guides to attract ghosts, they will raise a ghost king who is wise, powerful and has countless supernatural powers!
