Chapter 171 Nightmare Ghost
"Give the melon seeds to the nightmare ghost. The nightmare ghost will grab the melon seeds with both hands. At that time, the scepter in its hand will fall to the ground. You have to take the scepter away..."
With a buzz, he suddenly remembered why there was a bag of melon seeds at his feet!
The nightmare ghost clasped his hands together and saluted Ma Zhang politely. After the salute, he raised the five or six-inch-long sceptre in his hand towards Ma Zhang.
Ma Zhang opened his eyes wide!
Seeing the nightmare ghost raising the sceptre in his hand, he quickly bent down, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and handed them to the nightmare ghost!
The moment the nightmare ghost saw the melon seeds, the sceptre in his hand stopped!
Even the mist that covered it gradually dissipated as the nightmare ghost withdrew!
"Bian Guo!"
The mist dissipated, and the nightmare ghost in front of him revealed its true appearance!
He was wearing a green robe, had a rat face and body, and stood upright in front of people on his feet like a human!
Just as Feng Zhibai said, it's a rat spirit!
Ma Zhang was so frightened by the rat-like face of the Nightmare Ghost that his hands began to tremble, and the melon seeds in his hand fell to the ground!
"Um!"
The Nightmare Ghost looked displeased and glared at Ma Zhang!
Ma Zhang squatted down hurriedly and quickly grabbed another handful of melon seeds and put them in front of the nightmare ghost.
When the nightmare ghost saw the melon seeds, greed showed in his eyes and he licked his lips. He put the tablet in his left hand, opened his right hand and grabbed all the melon seeds!
Ma Zhang looked at the nightmare ghost's left hand in panic!
The sceptre didn’t fall!
He swallowed his saliva, bent down and grabbed the second handful. He thought he was fast enough and the nightmare ghost didn't have time to stretch out its left hand.
But he never expected that when he handed the second handful of melon seeds to the nightmare ghost!
A handful of melon seeds are gone!
He gasped and frantically searched for melon seed shells around the nightmare ghost.
Where did the melon seed shells come from on the empty ground!
He couldn't help but curse inwardly: "Damn! Eating melon seeds without spitting out the skins!"
"Um!"
Seeing that Ma Zhang did not bring the melon seeds to him, the nightmare ghost made an unhappy sound again.
Ma Zhang lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him.
He hurriedly handed the melon seeds forward, and when he felt the seeds leave his hand, he sped up again!
But when he picked up the third handful of melon seeds, the nightmare ghost's hand had already reached in front of him.
"Bian Guo."
"Bian, Bian Guo."
Ma Zhang's voice trembled, and his hands shook as he handed the third handful of melon seeds to the nightmare ghost.
The nightmare ghost grabbed all the melon seeds and put them into his mouth!
The crisp sound of melon seed shells breaking echoes in the white dream!
Fine beads of sweat began to seep out of Ma Zhang's forehead!
This is completely different from what Feng Zhibai said!
Didn’t they say that if you give the melon seeds, the nightmare ghost will put down the tablet in his hand?
Now this nightmare ghost has eaten three handfuls of melon seeds!
Why haven’t you put down the tablet in your hand yet?
"Idiot, give it the bag too."
Just when I was wondering what to do, Feng Zhibai's familiar mocking voice suddenly came from above my head!
He looked up, but could not see anything above his head!
Where does the sound come from?
"Mm! Bian Guo!"
The nightmare ghost swallowed all the melon seeds, stretched out his hand and shouted angrily at Ma Zhang.
Ma Zhang looked down at his feet in panic, gritted his teeth, and picked up the whole bag of melon seeds!
With his heart beating hard, he brought the opening to the nightmare ghost.
"Please, please."
Nervous voice.
When the nightmare ghost saw the whole bag of melon seeds, his rat eyes lit up and he excitedly opened his arms and snatched the whole bag of melon seeds from Ma Zhang's hand!
At the same time, the scepter in the Nightmare Ghost's hand fell to the ground.
It buried its head in the melon seed bag and savored the sweet melon seeds to its heart's content!
Ma Zhang was delighted and quickly picked up the tablet that had fallen on the ground!
And the nightmare ghost quickly wasted half of the bag of melon seeds!
Ma Zhang held the tablet tightly in both hands and ran back two or three steps, away from the nightmare ghost.
When the bag of melon seeds was empty, the nightmare ghost patted his stomach contentedly and instinctively stretched out his left hand to touch his waist.
The empty waist froze the expression of enjoyment on its face!
It hurriedly stood up by grabbing the ground, a hissing sound coming from its mouth, and its whole body was spinning on the spot in a hurry!
It stretched out its rat head and stared at its empty waist!
But there was no tablet for it!
"Where are my belongings?"
Realizing that the thing was not on him, the Nightmare Ghost suddenly raised his head and looked at Ma Zhang with anger in his rat eyes!
Ma Zhang retreated again in fear, raising the tablet in his hand tremblingly.
"You, don't come over here! I have your stuff in my hand! If you dare to come over here, I will hit you with this!"
Seeing his hu tablet in Ma Zhang's hand, the Nightmare Ghost jumped up and down in frustration: "Sir, please don't use violence! If you have anything to say, please talk it over nicely!"
"I was trying to talk to you nicely, but you came up and hit me! How can I talk to you nicely?"
Looking at it with grievance, Ma Zhang thought of the dream he had a few nights ago. This nightmare ghost kept knocking on him, full of resentment.
"I have no other intentions, I just like to play tricks on people. If you have anything to say, I will listen quietly. But please return my things."
"No, no, I won't return it! You, tell me first, what kind of devil are you! Why are you pestering me? How have I ever offended you?"
Shaking the tablet in his hand back and forth, Ma Zhang mustered up the courage to ask the question he wanted to ask.
The Nightmare Ghost blinked his eyes, as if thinking about this question.
"Don't even think about it! Tell me now! Otherwise, don't blame me for hitting you with the thing in my hand!"
Intent on frightening the nightmare ghost, he took a step forward and made a striking gesture with the sceptre in his hand!
The Nightmare Ghost held his head in his hands in fear and said, "I was sent by someone else to come and knock on your dreams! That person only told me to come to your dreams every day, but he didn't tell me why!"
Ma Zhang was confused.
"What do you mean? Someone ordered you here? Then tell me quickly, who sent you here? Was it a man named Liu?"
Subconsciously, he felt that what happened to him was related to Liu Ping.
His son's black magic must be related to Dai Shi!
Then this nightmare ghost might be used by Liu Ping, Dai Shi and Liu Kai to deal with themselves!
"I don't know! That person is wearing a tattered Taoist robe, and his Taoism is very advanced! Although I am a thousand-year-old rat spirit, I am not a true cultivator and can only do evil things. Therefore, I dare not disobey and have no choice but to come and knock on your dream!"
Ma Zhang was a little confused when he didn't hear the answer he was satisfied with.
Tattered Taoist robes? Was he a Taoist priest? As far as he could remember, he had never sinned against a Taoist priest wearing tattered robes, not even a beggar.
"What does that person look like? Or does he have any notable features?"
"I don't remember clearly."
The nightmare ghost waved his hands left and right.
His eyes kept moving back and forth following the tablet in Ma Zhang's hand.
"That's all I know. Can you please return what's mine to me?"
It stretched out its hand, trying to take the sceptre, but its hand couldn't touch it!
A deafening roar suddenly came from above Ma Zhang's head!
"I can't give it to you!"
As Chen Xiaodao's voice came over!
Ma Zhang looked up at the sky vigilantly!
Two dark shadows came from afar through the fog!
"Mr. Chen! Miss Feng!"
Seeing the familiar figure, Ma Zhang's eyes filled with tears and he almost cried out loud.
"Oh my god, you guys are finally here!"
Hammering his legs in grievance, he ran towards Chen Xiaodao and Feng Zhibai!
The nightmare ghost felt that someone had broken into his dream, and he took a breath from his nose, staring at the tablet in Ma Zhang's hand with a sly look!
He cried out in secret, then bent his legs and jumped directly towards Ma Zhang!
Before Ma Zhang could react, he felt something in his hand was snatched away!
"My stuff!"
With a scream, he looked back!
The nightmare ghost held the snatched sceptre in his hand, stood in the distance with his teeth bared, staring at him viciously!
"It's over..."
He rolled his eyes, it felt like he might as well die!
Feng Zhibai opened her hands and steadied herself. Seeing that the tablet had been snatched away by the nightmare ghost again, she waved her wide sleeves unceremoniously, her mouth twisted with anger.
"You old fool, you are so stupid! I told you to take the sceptre, why did you give it back?"
The scolding broke Ma Zhang's legs, which could no longer hold on, softened and he collapsed to the ground.
"I, I don't know! I heard Mr. Chen talking and just took a look, and it snatched the scepter away! Miss Feng, it's not my fault!"
"Oh, you mean to blame me?"
Chen Xiaodao got angry when he heard what Ma Zhang said.
"No, no! Mr. Chen misunderstood! It's not your fault, it's my fault, it's my fault!"
He waved his hands anxiously and was almost kneeling on the ground to apologize.
The nightmare ghost was standing not far away. Seeing that Feng Zhibai and Chen Xiaodao, two strangers, had actually broken into his dream, he angrily raised the sceptre in his hand and attacked them while shouting!
"Hey! How dare you, a mortal, trespass into the dreamland I created! I'm tired of living!"
As the tablet was swung down, a mist suddenly rose in the vast expanse of white!
The lingering white mist quickly separated the three people!
Chen Xiaodao stood there, squinting his eyes as he glanced around. He snorted in disdain, then pulled out a Bagua mirror from his bag. He placed it in front of his chest, turned it around, and shouted, "Master has given an order!"
With a whoosh sound, the entire white fog surrounding him was instantly dispersed!
Feng Zhibai shrank his neck in disgust, and waved his sleeves in front of him. The white mist turned into shimmering tiles and ceased to exist.
"Help! Mr. Chen, Miss Feng, help!"
Only the Muggle-like Ma Zhang was still sitting on the ground, frantically shouting for help.
Feng Zhibai rolled his eyes, stretched out two fingers, grabbed Ma Zhang's hair, and lifted him up easily.
Ma Zhang thought it was a nightmare ghost pulling his head, so he shook his head and body vigorously.
"Let me go! Let me go! Help! Help—!"
“Snap—”
"Can you please shut up? It's so noisy."
Before he could finish shouting for help, Feng Zhibai's slap landed crisply on Ma Zhang's face.
Chen Xiaodao stood aside. Although he couldn't see clearly due to the fog, the familiar and crisp sound of slapping made him shiver with fear!
He still remembers the taste of that slap from his grandmother.
Very spicy!
"Feng, Miss Feng..."
He didn't dare to get angry even when he was beaten, and could only look at Feng Zhibai pitifully.
Taking his hand back, Feng Zhibai took out a handkerchief and wiped his fingers: "I haven't washed my hair in so many days, it's so greasy."
Ma Zhang smiled sheepishly: "I washed it. I just washed my hair yesterday."
