Hearing the headless corpse say this, the ghosts followed his pointing finger and saw an old woman picking up scraps.
This old woman was Xue Guilan, who had separated from Bai Suxiang and Liu Sandao.
The two of them had gone to help an old man push a cart.
"Okay, we'll go over and catch her, scare her to death, and drag her back to the Asura Field!"
Another emaciated ghost echoed.
Three ghosts tiptoed over.
"Hmph! You're all spineless. It's night, and we can walk openly! Why walk so creepily! She's the one who should be scared, not us!"
The headless corpse realized its movements were a bit odd after walking only three or five steps.
"Yes, yes! Big brother is right!"
This way felt much better, the fat ghost said, and started walking swaggeringly.
After walking about seven or eight steps, a hand patted the headless corpse's shoulder, right where its neck was.
"Ouch! Didn't I tell you not to touch my neck?"
The headless corpse reprimanded sternly. He disliked others touching his scars.
If it hadn't been for saving someone, his head wouldn't have been chopped off, and he wouldn't be so unsightly.
"Well, I didn't touch it!"
"Nor did I!"
Hearing neither of them admit it, the headless corpse became more cautious.
After walking only three or four steps, the hand came again. This time, how could the headless corpse let it argue?
It grabbed the hand, "This time, I'll see if you can deny it!"
"Hehehe! Brothers, what good deed are you preparing to do?"
The voice sounded unfamiliar. The headless corpse glanced over and saw a burly man over eight feet tall standing before them.
The headless corpse had no eyes initially, but to make it easier to see, not just rely on feeling, the past self specially found an awakening spell that opened up the nipples on its body to serve as eyes!
"You? You can see us?"
The headless corpse asked.
"Of course, otherwise, why would I be talking to you?" the burly man replied in a loud voice.
"We are going to..."
The skinny ghost was about to speak when the headless corpse interrupted, "We're not going anywhere, let's go back, go back! Heh, heh!"
After saying that, it pulled the fat and skinny ghosts and "slid" away!
They ran for about four to five hundred meters before stopping and looking back to see if the burly man was chasing them.
"Big brother, why did you run?"
The fat ghost asked.
"Slap!" If it were a normal person, that would have been a very loud sound. But because they were ghosts, there was only the action, no sound.
"If I hadn't reacted quickly, you and I would have been beaten so badly today that even our parents wouldn't recognize us!"
"Hehehe, we probably wouldn't be recognized by our parents anyway in this state, why bother beating us?"
The skinny ghost chuckled, finding the headless corpse's words amusing.
"Laugh, laugh, why don't you know what's good for you!"
The headless corpse said, while hitting the skinny ghost.
"I said at the beginning that we should enter the taming disc and absorb that taming fluid. Otherwise, we wouldn't have to tiptoe around everyone we meet now!" the fat ghost complained slightly.
"Go away, go away!" the headless corpse said, pushing it aside, and continued:
"What do you know? I'm telling you, the reason I let you follow me and not enter the taming disc is because..."
"Because why?" Su Dan Novel Network
The skinny ghost's question almost made the headless corpse lose its train of thought.
"Because, the Ten-Faced Rakshasa didn't go, and there must be a reason for it!"
"Big brother, I'm not saying this to criticize you, but you don't get along with that Ten-Faced Rakshasa, why be like it? It didn't go, but we did, and maybe we'd be the ones in the spotlight now!"
The fat ghost said.
"I can't stand it, that's true. But it didn't enter the taming disc so that it could reincarnate one day!" the headless corpse said with a sigh.
"This? We can reincarnate like this? Besides, even Death wouldn't agree!"
"What do you know? This is called keeping a backup. What if the Lord's wish isn't realized in the future? Those souls in the taming disc, although more powerful than us, can only survive by relying on that liquid, or else they will be destroyed. Do you want that?"
The headless corpse finished speaking and looked at the fat and skinny ghosts.
They quickly shook their heads.
"So, we should target those with weak bodies. This way, we can achieve results more easily!"
The headless corpse raised its voice, making its decision sound particularly clever.
"Yes, yes, yes, big brother's decisions are always right, we'll listen to big brother!"
The two ghosts echoed, with a sense of ritual.
The headless corpse saw that the burly man from before had a character "Xue" next to him, indicating he was probably Xue Guilan's guardian.
One should not confront directly, especially when facing an opponent whose strength is insufficient.
To capture that mortal, one must use cunning. As long as she could be lured out or scared to death, her soul could be captured. At that time, even her guardian would be powerless to change the situation.
Seeing that the guardian was not pursuing them, the headless corpse decided to take the fat and skinny ghosts and try their luck again.
After Liu Sandao and Bai Suxiang returned to the small courtyard, as instructed by Xue Guilan, they sent the old man home and then returned together.
As he entered the door, he saw a guardian on the roof.
The waist token on that person had the character "Xue" on it, and it was likely there to protect Xue Guilan.
Bai Suxiang was busy helping Xue Guilan move things and tidy up. She didn't notice these things at first. When she was free and saw Liu Sandao sitting on a bench in the courtyard, staring at the roof, she looked in the direction he was looking.
As a result, she also saw the "Xue" character guardian.
The "Xue" god initially didn't pay much attention to these two mortals, but they stared for a long time, and wherever he went, they looked.
On this small roof, he had nowhere to go and nowhere to hide.
"Sigh! I say, you two can see me?"
Finally, he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes!" Bai Suxiang immediately replied.
Liu Sandao quickly cast a spell, blocking Xue Guilan and other mortals' sight.
To them, it was an ordinary farmhouse courtyard that had gone dark and entered a resting state.
Since they had met fellow cultivators, they gradually began to converse.
The "Xue" god mentioned his recent encounter with the headless corpse. Liu Sandao had a premonition that they would definitely come again.
The "Xue" god was not worried at all and said casually, "They are just ordinary ghosts, nothing to be afraid of!"
Liu Sandao was not worried about ordinary ghosts, but he had to guard against the past self.
As they were talking, he saw the three little ghosts approaching.
He whispered a few words in the "Xue" god's ear, and the "Xue" god and Bai Suxiang immediately understood.
Liu Sandao cast a spell, and the three of them transformed into three children, two boys and one girl.
The headless corpse, along with the fat and skinny ghosts, still crept stealthily into the small courtyard.
"Look! There's a rabbit over there!"
