Just as I was about to go to the door, suddenly Stein pulled me back and asked, "Do you have a needle and thread? And you're just going to open the door?"
I didn't think about that, I just wanted to know who it was that was knocking on the door outside the stay and why I needed to borrow a needle and thread.
"Have you?" I asked rhetorically.
Stein turned around and pulled the needle and thread out of his rucksack before handing it to me, saying that people like him basically bring this with them when they come out and don't ask for it!
I rolled my eyes, there's no need to talk so proudly about a big old man going out with a needle and thread, right?
Grabbing a needle and thread, I took a step to the door and opened it.
Outside the door stood a middle-aged man, dressed in rather old-fashioned clothes, with an anxious expression on his face.
"Hello, do you have a needle and thread?" The middle-aged man asked when he saw me open the door.
I sized him up and couldn't tell if he was a man or a ghost, so I had to hand him the needle and thread, "There, take it, Uncle, why are you going up to the temple in the middle of the night to borrow a needle and thread?"
I see that his clothes are old but not torn, they don't need to be sewn or mended at all, so what's the point of having a needle and thread?
"Sewing things, what else would I need a needle and thread for?" The middle-aged man replied, then lifted his shirt with one hand.
When I saw his stomach, I immediately sucked in a cold breath.
Only a big hole was pulled open in his stomach, even the intestines inside were clearly visible, while the middle-aged man was holding a needle and sewing his broken stomach one by one.
Ghost ... It's a fucking ghost!
He had finished sewing while I was wondering what I should do with him, and after pulling the thread off, he handed the needle and thread back to me with a grin on his face.
"Thanks!" The middle-aged man said.
After saying that, he picked up a bowl of noodles on the floor and wolfed it down.
"Finally I can eat, met a good man, hehehe, met a good man." The middle-aged man was happy while eating.
But the weird thing was that while he was eating, the noodles flowed out of his stomach, and the hole in that stomach just now he hadn't sewed it tightly at all, and there was still a slit where the noodles were squeezed out.
When he ate a bowl of noodles, a bowl of noodles came out of his stomach and fell to the floor.
"Why, why don't you give me a full meal? Why?" The middle-aged man was so angry that he slammed the bowl down and stormed out, he put his hand into his stomach and then yanked it, and all the intestines came out in a disgusting batch.
I almost threw up, but I covered my mouth tightly and finally managed to tough it out.
The middle-aged man glanced at me at this time, suddenly turned his anger into joy, then narrowed his eyes and smiled at me, "Young man, you're a good person, or else a good thing to the end, you let me eat it ..."
After saying that, the middle-aged man suddenly lunged at me with a fierce face.
"Eat your arse and get out!" I reacted quickly and slammed the door with a bang.
Maybe he's afraid to go into the Fox Fairy temple, so after I close the door, there's no movement outside.
When I opened the door just now, Stein was also standing back to get a good look at it, and he said to me that it was hungry ghost, and that he couldn't get enough except on the day of the Ghost Festival, and that no matter how much he sewed up, there would always be a slit in his stomach, and that he'd never get enough to eat.
hungry ghost?Thinking about that stomach of his just now I feel chills, intestines are pulled out, and want to eat me, in vain I also lent him a needle and thread.
"There's a ghost, get Stella up." I said.
When we finished, we both looked towards the Fox Fairy stage in unison, but to our surprise, Stella wasn't even there.
Where is everyone? Where is she? I was anxious, quickly with Stein in the temple to find everywhere, but this temple is so big, digging three feet and did not see Stella, eighty percent of the time when we fell asleep went out, no wonder just now we talked so loudly she did not wake up.
This girl, where the hell is she? Why did she leave without saying a word?
I rushed to call her, but there was actually no signal here, and I called a dozen times to no avail.
"No, we have to go find her, if anything happens to her, I can't explain to her sister and Raul Master." I'm a little worried about Stella, we're not familiar with this place, we don't know what kind of danger there will be, if it's a normal ground even if it's normal, but the ghost of that dead man's ditch actually climbed up, it means that there's still danger.
Once you leave this Fox Fairy temple, anything can happen.
Stein disagrees a bit, saying that Stella is a Celestial Master, so she doesn't need us to protect her, and if she meets an opponent who is more powerful than her, then we can't deal with it, so we might as well wait in the Temple of Fox Fairy, and the moment we leave here, we're in danger too.
What Stein said wasn't without merit, but I couldn't just sit back and wait for something to happen to Stella!
"Wait an hour, if Stella isn't back I have to go out and find her." I said.
Stein had nothing to say but to wait with me, but an hour later, Stella still hadn't come back, and even the hungry ghost from earlier hadn't moved.
"No wait, go find her." I lifted Copper Coin Sword and got ready to get out of here.
"Don't worry, even if we're going out, we shouldn't be the ones to take the lead." Stein's eyes glanced at the huffing little fox at this time.
The little fox was sleeping really well, and baring his mouth and drooling, not knowing what kind of beautiful dream he was having.
"Hey, wake up, little fox." We both woke up Little Fox together, then both of us looked at her with a bad smile.
Little Fox was startled, then clutched her chest tightly and said, "What do you want? We Fox Demon sell our art, not our bodies, and this is my last line."
"You're overthinking it, hurry up and head off for me." I kicked towards the little fox's arse and she flung herself directly against the door.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, humph, if you have something to say, why are you kicking someone's bum." The little fox scolded in a milky voice.
I said can you wake up without kicking? You have to remember you are a fox, not a pig, how can you sleep more heavily than a pig? Hurry up and open the door and go out.
"Out? Aren't there ghosts out there? It's safer to hide here in Fox Fairy's place, so why go out?" The little fox asked in disbelief while then mischievously glancing at the doorway with her eyes as if trying to peek outside, but it was dark, so she shouldn't be able to see anything.
"Stella's missing, we're going to find her, you're Fox Demon you shouldn't be afraid of ghosts, you take the lead." I said.
The little fox put up her little finger at this time and explained that although she was not afraid of ghosts, she could not help the ghosts with her Taoism, that is to say, she was not afraid of the ghosts, and the ghosts were not afraid of her, and she would not be able to protect us when the time came.
What the hell, there is such a thing, I thought the little fox could clean up a ghost or two.
"Never mind, you can just take the lead, in case of danger, I have this." I gripped the Copper Coin Sword in my hand.
The little fox said she understood and then opened the door like a thief, she looked around for a moment and then whooshed a few calls towards us to indicate safety.
I said there's no need to be like this. We're going to look for someone, it's not like we're thieves, and seeing the little fox like this, Stein and I hid our faces and laughed bitterly.
The little fox said she was used to it, when she used to go and steal chickens and eggs from the villagers down the hill.
Forget about it, since it's safe out there, Stein and I hurriedly walked out as well.
It's dark outside but quiet, nothing around, the hungry ghost from earlier should be gone, and when I look at Deadman's Gulch again, I realise that Will - o' - the - wisp have all disappeared.
I'm kind of wondering where all the will-o'-the-wisp went. Why did they disappear?
At this time, the little fox sniffed its nose, then said quietly, "Master, I seem to have smelled a lot of yin energy."
