Chapter 10: The long night is long, come and make a comedy

For many years, the nights of the Underground City have been the territory of ghosts.

At first, there were believers who didn't know the seriousness of the matter, and at night they would open the door because of curiosity. There was no doubt that their figure would be gone in the food room the next day.

I will never see you again.

Over time, not going out at night has become an iron rule known to everyone in the underground city. Besides, it takes a certain amount of time to open the door, but it is so dangerous that believers who have tasted the pain will no longer waste their power on the wooden door.

Therefore—

The wandering ghosts have not seen "people" for a long time.

At first they came to find food and vent of resentment, and the fear of "human" is the best way for them to breed more power.

Later, when there was no goal and the house could not be entered, the ghosts learned to entertain themselves. At least they could also set foot on the unfair places. Isn’t it a kind of comfort?

Yes, they feel unfair.

Why do these ghost things raised by ghost trees regard themselves as humans when they live in underground cities? Whenever they see them, they will show a hostile and terrified expression?

They are obviously the same, as dirty, as negative, and not living.

Hypocrisy and unfair, why should the so-called believers who were chosen to live in the underground city be treated the same as living people?

Why didn't they have this kind of luck? They were even turned away by the Underworld City... Perhaps these believers who live in the Underworld City themselves don't know that they are not considered human at all.

But they are so angry that they can't see the believers. Even if they see them, they have no mouths. They cannot appeal to the public and cannot let the lucky ones see the facts clearly.

Because they are born underground and do not need to communicate with each other, they have long forgotten their ability to speak. Unlike ghosts on the ground, they can linger around humans and still tell pain.

...It seems that some people can speak, such as leaving only one head after another, and the group of guys hanging deeper, but the ghost tree seems to consciously separate those heads from the underground city. If they hadn't been traveling through the branches and flesh and blood, they might not have even known about the existence of those heads.

Anyway, night is the time for them to defile the abodes of believers, and they are happy even if it is useless.

It would have been the same tonight.

But what's going on now?

This...is a human.

The ghosts near the food room fell into silence. Before cursing and intimidating, their first reaction was actually stunned.

Especially this human was greeting them as if he had seen an old friend, and no fear appeared on his face.

Seeing that these ghosts didn't take action, Yu Xing sighed secretly, "Why are the ghosts in the food room so stupid that they are not as clever as the ones who just knocked on the door."

He walked forward a few steps and came to the front of the gate of the food room. The door could have been pushed open without a lock. After nightfall, he was cursed and blessed and closed tightly like the house.

From the outside, the food room is like a simple iron house with no shape at all. It is just a big box and very flat.

Yu Xing put his hand on the door. At this time, the big-headed ghost he had just passed finally reacted, and howled shrillly, rushed towards him.

The facial features on the big head were also extremely huge, especially the mouth, which accounted for one-third of the entire face. When it was opened, there were blood stains on its sharp teeth, and there were also a few strips of flesh hanging on it.

Yu Xing felt the sound of breaking the wind and gently avoided the side. Among his physical fitness, strength was not the most advantageous, but speed was.

After leaving the big-headed ghost's bloody mouth, he glanced at the place where the big-headed ghost had just squatted.

There was a ball of meat paste spread on the ground. From the rolling eyes and the five or six mouths on the meat paste, it could be seen that the meat paste was still an ugly ghost a few minutes ago. It was just killed by a big-headed ghost and ate a little bit - and it was spit out.

The big-headed ghost, who had fallen into nothing, stood in gloomy place, staring at Yu Xing with his eyes that were not separated from humans.

Under the tiny neck, the body of a child who only exists during famine is thin and his stomach is bulging, not because he is full, but it is just an alternative deformity.

It was probably a very powerful ghost here. If it had it, the other ghosts around could not be suppressed for the time being, and did not all come to Yu Xing.

Yu Xing was not angry or fought back - if it were ghosts elsewhere, he probably had no choice but to find a way to eliminate ghosts from the source according to the rules of the world. But here, the power of curses is the source of everything, and this may be his cemetery and his paradise.

He just didn't plan to solve such an interesting thing with force.

Yu Xing patted the door and discussed it with a good tone with his brothers: "Is it true that the traditional hungry ghost in ancient times? He has a big mouth and a big belly. He is always in a state of extreme hunger, but his throat is as small as the tip of the needle. He can't swallow the things in his mouth when he eats. He can only vomit after eating, and then he is still hungry."

"You will be condensed here, it seems that a branch of the Ghost Tree extends into the world of famine."

The big-headed ghost - that is, the hungry ghost, actually doesn't care much about what Yu Xing said.

Even if that is true, there is no "pain point" in the ghost's mind. It is not a ghost with causal resentment in the city. It is just hungry and just wants to eat full.

The humans in front of you are delicious. No matter whether they can really eat it in their stomachs, it smells very fragrant anyway...

The hungry ghost grew up and seemed to swallow Yu Xing into his stomach.

"Don't worry, even if you break me into countless pieces, you can't swallow it. I think you are pitiful, let's discuss it with you." Yu Xing smiled and easily dodged again. From the previous stunned ghosts, you can see that these ghosts, as companions after the ghost tree absorbed nutrients, were nourished by the ghost tree for countless years, and had evolved their thinking ability.

He likes to deal with brainy ghosts the most. It happens that the night is long and it’s too boring to be alone. It’s not bad to find a few ghosts to play with him.

"I just happened to want to go to the food room and see. You can go in with me. If there are ingredients in it, I will make you a liquid meal to ensure you can eat it. What about it? This is a rare opportunity. Even if you wander here for a thousand years, you will never have the chance to eat food." Yu Xing licked his lips and bewitched in a low voice.
