Chapter 98 Huangquan Inn (11) My cat hasn’t had enough to eat in a long time...



The corpse that looked like Zhuang Yan rushed towards Yue Ya. The corpse's movements were very stiff, as if its limbs were tied by an invisible string and controlled by an invisible person. Yue Ya didn't have time to think about it, because a sharp scimitar suddenly appeared in the corpse's hand and the corpse chopped at his head with the scimitar.

Before Yue Ya could get angry, Fei Fei, who was lying on his head, got angry first. When Yue Ya heard Fei Fei's humming, he knew that Fei Fei had already shown his claws. If he didn't take action, Fei Fei would pounce on him. Yue Ya immediately summoned vines with his mind, wrapped them around the neck of the corpse, and hung it on the roof of the car.

The corpse stared with lifeless eyes and let out a terrifying growl from its throat. Yue Ya looked at the face that looked exactly like Zhuang Yan and thought that if Zhuang Yan saw his face become like this, he would probably collapse.

Yue Ya wanted to take a photo as a souvenir, but the corpse did not give him the chance - it was disabled but strong-willed, and threw the scimitar in its hand over.

Yue Ya turned his head to avoid it, and the cold wind raised by the scimitar cut off his raised hair.

"Bang——" There was a loud explosion behind him. It was obvious that the car window was broken by the machete. Yue Ya raised his hand to block it, but a piece of the wind that escaped the net scratched his cheek.

Yue Ya wiped the wound with her fingertips, and the cut flesh healed quickly, leaving only two camouflage-like bloodstains, which were particularly eye-catching on the porcelain-white skin.

"I'm injured, you have to pay me."

Yue Ya snapped his fingers, and vines appeared out of nowhere, wrapped around the corpse's hands, and hung it up.

The corpse had lost its weapons and hands, and it awkwardly kicked Yue Ya with its legs. This movement was not threatening at all, and it looked like it was doing pull-ups.

Yue Ya didn’t find the corpse of a disabled person with a strong will and love for sports scary, but rather a little funny.

He used new vines to wrap around the corpse's restless legs. Looking at the five vines on the corpse, Yue Ya felt more and more that it was like a soulless puppet that would only move according to the instructions of the person pulling the strings.

Is this the puppet?

"You are so cruel. You have the heart to treat your companion's body like this." A strange voice sounded in the carriage. The tone was unfamiliar, and Yue Ya was sure that he had never heard this voice before.

Ghosts can change their voices at will, and we can't judge anything based on this.

Yue Ya looked into the air and said nonchalantly, "My companion is not that ugly. These fakes of yours are really poorly made."

The strange voice gnashed its teeth and said, "You are too arrogant. Do you think your few broken vines can control my puppet?"

Just as he finished speaking, the vines that bound the corpse suddenly broke off. Yue Ya caught one of them. The broken end of the vine was very neat, as if it had been cut by a transparent blade.

The bodies in the car floated up one after another, and various sharp weapons appeared in their hands.

The ghostly voice added, "You have defamed my art, and you will pay for it."

The Wood God Blade appeared in Yue Ya's hand. He smiled lazily, "Your 'artwork' hurt my eyes. How are you going to settle this account? Otherwise, you should pay me several million dollars for mental damages."

The ghost hiding in the dark was very angry with him and issued an order in a harsh voice: "Kill him! I want to cut him into pieces!"

The cold mist penetrated the car through the broken window, and Yue Ya was so cold that he had goose bumps all over his body. He took a moment to look out the window, and the lingering thick fog had dissipated for the most part, and he could see the road ahead clearly.

No one knows when this bus drove onto the winding mountain road, with a cliff next to it. As long as the "person" controlling the bus drove to the side, the bus would fall into the abyss and be smashed to pieces.

The puppets were approaching, and Yue Ya spun the Wood God Blade in his hand: "Dad doesn't have time to play this game of chicken catching eagle with you."

[Chickens and eagles, so these dolls are the chickens, and you are the eagle, right?]

[Anchor, recognize the situation, you are surrounded now!]

[Yuezi smiled evilly: Woman, I can surround all the puppets by myself]

[You are on the host’s hit list, so just do what you want!]

The puppets raised their weapons at the same time. Yue Ya narrowed his eyes and counted down leisurely: "3, 2-1."

As if by magic, as soon as the countdown ended, all the puppets stopped and red lines appeared on their wrists and necks.

Yue Ya gave the doll a gentle push and it fell to the ground.

He looked towards the driving seat. The driver who was pretending to be the corpse was held on both sides by the puppets he had secretly released. His hands were unable to move. Thin red threads were wrapped around the driver's fingers, connecting them to the puppet's body.

The driver was lying on the steering wheel, but was secretly manipulating the puppet to attack Yue Ya.

Yue Ya walked forward and lifted the driver's chin with the Wood God Blade: "Mr. Driver, using a puppet to fight a puppeteer is not a wise decision."

The driver's eyes were filled with gloom, and he asked him viciously: "Have you discovered me a long time ago?"

"You are the only stranger in the car. Do we need to guess?" Yueya thought for a while and said, "I heard that there was a car in this area that encountered a lot of ghost money on the road. The passengers in the car opened the window and let the ghost money fly into the car. Later, only two people in the car survived. Could you be the driver of that car?"

The driver's eyes widened in surprise, with a look of humiliation and anger as if he had been found out. "So what if it was me? I don't know where you heard this story from, but it's a fake story because no one in that car survived... They were all dead!"

The car was filled with a negative energy and the driver's illusion was exposed. The puppets took off their disguises, revealing even more decayed bodies and their original faces. They were the victims who died in the accident, and their bodies were made into puppets by the driver who held the most resentment.

"Let everything return to normal. You continue to take us to our destination and I will forgive you for what happened." Yue Ya stood among the corpses in the car. He was the only bright sight. However, the driver's soul was in his hands. Even though he had a god-like face, the driver did not dare to look at him for even a second glance.

The driver nodded blankly, his chin hitting the sharp blade, causing another sharp pain. He said timidly, "Thank you for letting me go. Actually, I have no grudge against you, so why would I deliberately cause trouble for you? I was entrusted by someone to give you something in this illusion."

Yue Ya didn't believe that the driver would change his attitude in such a short time, but his last sentence was quite credible.

Because the housekeeper reminded Yueya to "wait", maybe she was waiting for the thing in the driver's hand.

"Where is the stuff?"

The driver lowered his eyes and said carefully: "The thing is hidden in my soul consciousness. You will know it when you see it, but I can't move now, so I can't take it out for you."

"Let go of his left hand." Yue Ya gave the order, and the puppet immediately let go of the driver's hand.

The driver moved his left hand, his tense body relaxed a little, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

"Things." Yue Ya urged.

"I know, I'll take it out right away." The driver put two fingers into his forehead and took out an envelope.

It must be painful to take things out of the soul. The driver's facial features were distorted. He grumbled a few times and handed the envelope to Yue Ya.

Feifei climbed down and sniffed the envelope: "Meow!" No problem, meow.

There was a faint seal on the envelope. Yue Ya rubbed it with her fingertips and the seal disappeared. This means that even the driver responsible for delivering the items didn't know what was inside.

Yueya opened the envelope, and inside was a piece of letter paper, a piece of paper money for the dead, and a blood-red thread.

Yue Ya hooked the red silk thread, and it immediately merged into his palm and became the fourth palm print. It turned out to be a puppet string. Yue Ya was now the master of this puppet string and could use it to capture any prey.

Yue Ya let the puppet hold the driver's left hand again, and calmly opened the letter, which read:

"When a person is about to die, six puppet strings are implanted into the person's body. Five of them are used to control the limbs and neck, and one is used to control the seven emotions and six desires. The seven emotions and six desires strings entangle the soul. As long as the strings are cut, the soul will not enter reincarnation. Only when these six strings are cut will the puppet's body reveal flaws, and then all it will take is a fire to burn it to ashes."

This is how you destroy the doll.

Yue Ya looked at the ghost money again. It had a face value of 200,000.

Now it is certain that this envelope was written by the butler. The butler rejected Yue Ya in the inn, but took the trouble to arrange an illusion on the road, so that he could make a deal with Yue Ya without anyone knowing, and test Yue Ya's strength to see if he is worthy of cooperation.

Yue Ya received this envelope, which meant that he passed the test. The 200,000 ghost money was the down payment for the transaction. As for the puppet string...

"Go to hell!" The driver stretched out his third hand and pulled the red line between his fingers. The fallen puppet stood up again and rushed towards Yue Ya with weapons in hand.

Yue Ya understood after a little thought. After taking the envelope, the driver created an illusion to deceive Yue Ya's puppet and hid his real left hand. Until just now, the driver thought Yue Ya was distracted, so he burned his boats and launched another sneak attack.

This move is quite interesting, but it stops there.

Yue Ya spread out his palms, and the other end of the puppet string pierced into the driver's heart. The driver's eyes widened and widened, and finally became round beyond human limits, like a puppet that had lost its soul.

The driver who manipulated a car full of puppets eventually became a puppet in Yueya's hands.

Yue Ya looked at the driver with pity: "You are really stupid."

The butler didn't want anyone to know about their deal, including the driver who delivered the letter. This puppet string was for Yue Ya to control the driver.

After the transaction is completed, Yue Ya is not sure whether the butler will treat him the same way he treated the driver. He has a hunch that the butler's purpose is not just to prevent the wedding.

Maybe the butler will ask him for a second cooperation, but the price will be different then.

Yueya manipulated the driver back to the driving seat. With someone controlling the steering wheel, the bus, which was drifting more and more, finally stabilized a little.

A crack appeared in the illusion created by the driver. Yue Ya looked towards the carriage and saw familiar players and passengers returning to their seats. They sat in the old and dilapidated car with the corpses lying all over the place, giving the illusion of overlapping time and space.

Gradually, the bloodstains in the carriage faded, and the rotten corpse turned into pieces of paper money floating in the air.

Yueya took a piece of paper money and glanced at the number: 1,000 yuan.

He put the paper money into his pocket and picked up another 500 yuan note.

Yue Ya was happily picking up the items, but the players didn't move. He looked up and saw that the players had dazed looks, with expressions like "Who am I? Where am I? What should I do?"

Yue Ya found it funny and reminded him, "Aren't you going to pick up money? Even a mosquito bite is still meat."

This statement awakened the players. They blinked their eyes, decisively threw away those philosophical questions, and bent down to pick up the money.

[Hahaha why does this picture look a bit funny?]

[Players: I get sober when you talk about money]

[I was stunned. So this incident was a carefully planned trap by the butler? The butler has been a zombie for so many years, how could he still be so cunning...]

[By the way, does this car belong to the anchor now?]

[A broken car is still a car, Yuezi, from today on you are the one who owns a car in the game!]

[I remember the host also had a small broken boat]

[What little broken boat? That’s called a ghost ship. Now this can barely be considered a ghost car?]

After the players picked up the paper money for the dead, the tattered car was restored to its original appearance. Even the window that was smashed by the machete was repaired. The car was clean and tidy, and it exuded a faint fragrance.

The players held the change in their hands and looked at Yue Ya happily.

Without asking, they knew that it was Yue Ya who first resolved the illusion and controlled the driver, so they were able to sit here safely.

One player said: "Thank you, Brother Yue. I accidentally hugged your thigh again."

One player waved a ghost money: "I left the illusion early and there is money to pick up. Can you please have a teammate like Brother Yue?"

[Do you believe that if there were one more player like Yuezai, they would be able to tear this game apart?]

[I believe]

[I have watched the live broadcast of the top ten players in the server. The host’s Pixiu bloodline is definitely not the strongest among them. Fans don’t need to brag so much, right?]

[We didn’t brag that the anchor is the best player, we just said he is the most shameless (dog head)]

Seeing that the players were injured, Yue Ya lazily said, "Stop joking. Treat your injuries quickly. We may have guests coming to visit us later."

In the wilderness, the only visitors were roadblocks, so the players quieted down and treated their wounds quickly and skillfully.

Zhuang Yan was not injured, and caught Yue Ya to chat: "I saw your corpse in the illusion, it scared me... But you have turned into a corpse, how come you are still so handsome? You look depressed and cool, this doesn't make sense."

Yue Ya: "I saw your body, too."

Zhuang Yan looked at him expectantly: "Isn't he handsome too?"

Yueya: "Do you want to hear the truth? I wanted to take a picture, but unfortunately I didn't have time."

Zhuang Yan saw his expression and guessed the answer: "I suddenly don't really want to know anymore."

Yun Yu was helping a female player treat her wound when she suddenly felt a sticky and disgusting gaze on her body. She turned her head and saw a pale face pressed against the car window, staring greedily at the female player's wound. The ghost's mouth was wide open and a pool of saliva was drooling on the car window.

"What are you looking at?" The female player followed Yun Yu's line of sight and blurted out, "There's a ghost outside!"

This sound alerted everyone in the car and they all looked over.

The ghost outside the window has disappeared, and only the saliva marks on the glass window can prove that something has been there.

In the silence, the female player asked softly, "Is the ghost gone?"

Yueya was behind the female player. He moved his ears and caught some noises in the distance: "No, it's calling its friends."

"ah?"

Yue Ya looked out the window, and a demon with a rotten face suddenly appeared, raised his hands and bared his teeth at him, showing his dagger-like nails: "Open the window!"

Yue Ya made a face at the ghost outside, and Fei Fei, who was lying on his head, let out a low growl like a wild beast, and the huge shadow of the beast covered the car window.

"Ahhhhh!!" The evil ghost was so scared that he let go of his hands and was thrown out by the speeding bus.

Zhuang Yan, who had been watching the whole thing, said: "..." What kind of bad taste is this? Even the cats he raises have the same temper.

Yue Ya looked innocent: "Is it really okay for such a timid ghost to be an NPC?"

Zhuang Yan: "If you don't encounter a big devil type of player, it should be fine." Who asked this NPC to have the bad luck to encounter one.

"Shh, the money is here." Yue Ya pointed to the car window. There was a piece of paper money for the dead with a face value of 100,000 yuan stuck to the place where his finger was pointing.

A gust of wind blew, and more than twenty pieces of paper money for the dead stuck to the car window, and the whole car was surrounded by negative energy.

At this moment, time seemed to go back to when they first entered the dungeon. At that time, the bus they were riding was driving on a deserted mountain road, and just like now, a dozen ghost money was suddenly pasted on the window of the bus.

When the tour guide saw the paper money, he reacted strongly: "It's this kind of paper money again! Don't open the window!"

Yueya and the players explained the cause of the driver's death. They knew how powerful these ghosts were. Now everyone is short of ghost money to buy their lives. If you want money, you have to take risks.

The players looked at each other and discussed:

"There is no safe way to make money in this instance. Let's just wipe out all these ghosts who are paying for their money!"

"I think so too. This is our chance. After we return to the inn tonight, we will have to adjust the money for buying our lives again. We have to hurry up."

"I agree to take the risk."

"I agree, let's work together and make something big!"

The players made up their minds and asked Yue Ya for his opinion: "Brother Yue, what do you think?"

Yue Ya said in a gentle voice: "Of course we have to open the window to welcome the money that comes to our door. There is limited space in the car, so we will limit the number of people and welcome them in batches. What do you think?"

One player said: "Brother Yue has thought it through very carefully. I think we should do this."

Yue Ya curved her eyes and said, "My cat hasn't had enough to eat for a long time, so it likes to eat some ghosts and spirits. Please take good care of it later."

Feifei raised his two round paws and bowed: "Meow~" Please, meow.

The players instantly forgot the fear of being surrounded by ghosts and their hearts were melted by the cuteness.

"Wait, sister will catch a ghost for you to eat in a moment!"

"Good little cat, I'll feed you first when I catch the ghost."

[Fei Fei is so cute, hurry up and give it food, the baby can eat whatever he wants]

[Haha, he is indeed Fei Fei, and he has won the hearts of the players]

[These brothers and sisters will find out later that it is not so easy to feed the Soul Devourer~]

“Bang, bang!!”

Yueya's car window was knocked again. He tilted his head and met the ghost's eyes through the window. The ghost's face was half rotten. He lay on the car window, opened his mouth and let out a long tongue: "Let me in... Let me in..."

Yue Ya curved her eyes and said, "Okay."

The evil ghost was shocked, and his lifeless eyes suddenly opened: "You agreed?"

Yueya nodded and opened the car window: "Yes, come in."
