Chapter 146 Want to Eat Human Bones
"Cursed souls?" Fang Yanli was stunned. She had indeed heard Mrs. Gu talk about the dead, but she didn't hear it clearly at the time. Now that Song Yan asked her a question related to Mrs. Gu's teachings, she was a little at a loss.
Seeing that Fang Yanli couldn't answer her question, Song Yan narrowed his eyes, snapped his fingers, and let the Yin Qi that was always running in his body hit Fang Yanli's face. "Stupid, if you keep going like this, I guarantee that even if I find a way to revive you, you will die in two days."
Fang Yanli's face wrinkled after being beaten. She rubbed the place where she was hit by the whip-like energy and wailed a little aggrievedly: "I just forgot a small thing, but you are like this. I haven't forgotten my master's teachings. Why are you so angry every time?"
Without hearing Song Yan's answer, Fang Yanli opened her eyes and saw Song Yan turning her head in the dark. She followed her gaze and saw nothing, so she frowned. There was no evil there, so why would Song Yan look at that place? "What's wrong——"
Seeing Song Yan's serious expression, she fell silent and instinctively retreated behind Song Yan.
Song Yan took one last look at the thing that was following her, then walked away without doing anything, although she could still hear the slight rustling and crunching of leaves behind her.
Everything, she seemed to have forgotten what was hanging on Mrs. Lin. It seemed that the ghost did doubt her and came to hunt her down. Song Yan clenched his fingers, thinking about how troublesome it would be to deal with this ghost whose cultivation was comparable to Fang Yanli.
And now seeing her talking to the gods, it would definitely not make her feel good.
"There's a black-eyed ghost standing behind you, trying to eat human bones." The thing behind her hummed, and Song Yan felt goose bumps all over her body. The ghost was using her mother's voice to hum a distorted version of the nursery rhyme her mother sang to her when she was alive.
"After eating human bones, it will devour your soul and burp..."
"There is a black-eyed ghost behind you who wants to eat human bones..."
"After eating human bones, it will devour your soul and burp..."
"A soul..."
Song Yan turned his head, his eyes cold, looking at the black figure standing almost behind him. Since it knew that she could see it, there was no need to pretend that it could not feel it.
Not wanting to disrupt her plan, she casually pulled out the ring and threw it into the air. The figure tilted its head towards the sickle, making a squeaking sound. Song Yan squinted and said, "Can you feel it?" As she spoke, she released her Yin Qi. "I may not be able to deal with you all at once, but I can deal with you. If you push me too much, I can deal with you too."
She raised her scythe, pointed it at where she guessed the thing's throat was, and warned, "Sing that song again, and I'll show you what it's like to be afraid for your life."
The thing flickered and retreated. Walking in the moonlight, Song Yan vaguely saw the outline of a thin woman of about 17 or 16 years old. Her thin limbs and malnourished body were still rotting. As she walked, Song Yan saw black ink-like tar mud flowing from the wounds.
She narrowed her eyes and watched the figure retreat and disappear.
After it disappeared, Fang Yanli, who had been hiding behind Song Yan, came out and stammered, "What...what is that?"
Song Yan raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Fang Yanli, who was trembling all over as if she had seen a ghost for the first time. "You act as if you are not dead yet."
"Well, I'm glad to see that you care about me so much." Fang Yanli snorted, flew into the air, and used her extraordinary head to see if the thing had disappeared. "She seems to have disappeared, but I can't feel her again." Fang Yanli frowned and looked at Song Yan. "Why can't I see her?"
"Because that thing's cultivation is the same as yours, it can hide your existence." Song Yan took a final look at the direction where the thing disappeared, turned around and said. "However, my level is higher than both of you, so it can't hide from me."
Fang Yanli ignored the subtle letting go and asked, "But why did it catch up with you?"
Song Yan then told Fang Yanli what happened on the set and what was caught by Mother Lin: "Mother Lin seems to be very possessive and regards me as a threat. She came here to warn me not to get close to Mrs. Lin and interfere with what it is doing. "
"You mean, you suppressed it, but it sensed your Yin Qi?" Fang Yanli gasped.
"No." Song Yan shook his head, his eyes flickering in the moonlight. "That spirit seems really smart. Rather than saying that it can detect my Yin Qi, it's better to say that it has been testing me. Because the Song family is full of formations, it has no way for it to get in, so it stares at me from afar to see if its suspicion is correct."
