MTL - Mysterious World, I Have Special Understanding-Chapter 258 The coffin can't hold back
Chapter 258 The coffin can't be overwhelmed
"Comprehension! Eternal cooking method!"
As the comprehension bar in his consciousness entered the secret scroll, those ink characters flew into the air at once, spinning around him like a flowing ink-written shirt.
After a period of time, all the ink characters that he knew and didn't know fell on him.
The ink characters entered the body, like rainwater falling into a clear pond, causing circles of ripples.
For a while, a cool breeze came, and the fairy air was faint.
Ji Que only felt that he was in an extremely magnificent palace, where a young man with gray hair was holding a pot and shaking the spoon constantly.
There is nothing in his pot, but he is still shaking the spoon, every time he shakes the spoon, it looks extremely relaxed, and it seems that he has exhausted all his strength.
The most important thing is his eyes, as if he has read a thousand landscapes and turned them into nothingness, but he never forgets them, full of despondency and ecstasy.
In the empty pot at first, the air seemed to be fried at a certain moment, exuding the sweet smell of popcorn, and then turned into the bitterness of a dumb man eating coptis, once again sadness, joy, ecstasy, great sadness, anger, Slack, fear, dread, ecstasy.
Until the soul is overwhelmed.
I don’t know how many seasons have passed outside the window. The flowers on the branches withered and bloomed, bloomed and withered, and the sunset glow changed into various colors. The man with gloomy eyes never stopped shaking his spoon.
This is a person who can even fry the air.
Ji Que woke up from this feeling, and found that the air was really full of complicated smells.
What is even more exaggerated is that the beams of the house are all pitch black, as if they had been burned by fire.
And when Ji Que walked out of the house, even Tang Yi was so frightened that he jumped on the recliner.
Ji Que's hair was curled up, flames flowed from his clothes, and his whole body was smoking, as if he had just emerged from the flames.
Knowing the sea, a series of information has been generated.

"Hahaha I did it!"
In the process of comprehension, Ji Que learned to flip the spoon while experiencing various emotions, so he seemed a little crazy for a while.
The next moment, there was only a crisp sound, and an egg fell from it, landed on his head, and cracked.
In the sky high above the head, a row of wild geese turned into the word "person" for a while, and the word "one" for a while, and gradually flew away.
At this time, the egg on Ji Que's head was already cooked by his steaming heat.
He has practiced, but he still has to digest it for a while.
I didn't expect that besides the moves and strength, it would also involve various emotions.
It is worth celebrating that this suckling pig finally knows how to bite.
In Sangshui County, the wind is howling, and the leaves of the trees in the county have fallen off completely, leaving only bare branches, which looks quite deserted.
Since Ji Que left, Sangshui County, where there are no villages or shops behind, can have a wonderful time in a paradise.
Unfortunately, this period of time is not forever. Recently, there have been more rumors of ghosts and ghosts in the county, and there have been fewer people. People with a little background have begun to move.
The coffin of Li's family was laid on the west side of the town. Because of the coffin placed at the door, the wind seemed to turn gloomy here.
The store is a little deep, and the inside is a little dark.
After all these years, the academies in Sangshui County still haven't taught any great Confucianism, but Ji Que, a student who failed the ranking, has gained some fame, and there are some rumors even in this closed county.
But Sangshui County is still lonely, with no villages and shops behind.
Such a county town, which is a little bigger than the town, has a sense of decay no matter how you look at it. From a distance, it looks like a lonely grave.
Such a place is fine in ordinary times, it can be said to be a corner of peace, but in this extraordinary period when "rumors" are everywhere, it is easy to be abandoned.
Most of the people who stayed in the town in the end were unable to leave for various reasons.
In the small courtyard behind the coffin shop, Li Sankai just came out of the house, looking tired.
To be honest, with the current state of panic, the Li family should have moved out long ago.
After all, the Li family's coffins are famous far and wide. Even if his family earned some money, they could live in Liuhuai City, but they couldn't leave.
Since the old man left, Aunt Li has also been sick and unable to travel at all, so Li Sankai and her younger sister Li Mei can only stay here and continue to operate this seemingly good business.
The better the business, the more flustered Li San was. After all, it meant more people died.
At least half of the people left in the city are old people. This is a normal phenomenon, but it still makes him feel wrong.
Those who do funeral business pay attention to not being suspicious, but whether it is Li Sankai or his younger sister Li Mei, they all feel a little panic now.
Because on the way to Liuhuai City with Ji Que, they saw the ghost with a pair of bizarre big feet wearing embroidered shoes, so they became more and more taboo about ghosts and gods.
Li Sankai originally wanted to close the coffin shop, but was strongly opposed by his mother, Aunt Li, who was lying on the hospital bed.
Said that this is a century-old store and the root of his Li family, so how can it be closed as soon as it is said.
He was afraid that he would **** his old mother to death, so the coffin shop is still open until now.
Little sister Li Mei is still sleeping in the house. Due to the chaotic world, the two siblings are taboo for selling coffins, so they are still single until now.
At this moment, a voice came from the shop—"Is anyone there?".
Hearing the voice was a man, Li Sankai couldn't help frowning, and walked into the shop.
I saw the person standing outside with a knife on his waist, wearing a black robe, with a dull expression.
During this period of time, there have been some problems in the county, and the life of the headhunter is not easy, and he looks a little haggard.
After seeing that the other party was Xue Tutou, Li Sankai still had a sense of security in his heart. After all, Xue Tutou is considered the number one person in the town, and he has some tricks.
He couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "Why is Catcher Xue here?"
Xue Tutou looked at the coffin shop, and said calmly: "Bring me a coffin, I want the best one."
After hearing this sentence, Li San couldn't help but thumped in his heart.
Is the head catcher dead?
He didn't ask any more questions, but nodded quickly, and went inside to find the coffin.
For some reason, Li Sankai always felt that something was wrong with the head catcher today, his face was pale and his eyes were red.
It should be because of the death of a family member, so sad?
But after a while, Li Sankai's body froze there, because he suddenly remembered that both of Xue Tutou's parents died, he was still unmarried, and he came from another place. Where did his relatives come from?
Could it be a colleague in the yamen?
Something happened to the police?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling chills down his spine. When he secretly glanced at Xue Tutou outside, he found that the other party was just standing there coldly, like a wooden stake.
Suppressing the panic in his heart, Li Sankai pointed to a nanmu coffin in the shop, and said, "Captor, this is the best we have."
Xue Butou nodded and walked in.
She looked at the nanmu coffin and said, "How much money?"
Li Sankai said nervously, "Three taels of silver."
It stands to reason that this coffin usually sells for ten taels of silver, but Li Sankai thought of the identity of the other party, so he called such a "friendship price".
Xue Butou indifferently took out the silver from his bosom, and put it in Li Sankai's hand. When Li Sankai took the silver, he felt that the other party's hand was so cold, like a piece of ice, even though he didn't touch the other party. His skin felt a chill.
Xue Tutou really has practiced martial arts, and he is very strong. After paying the money, he went straight away with the coffin on his shoulders.
After the other party left the shop, Li Sankai carefully looked at the other party again, and found that something was wrong.
Is there too much shadow of the other party?
Although the weather is cold, there is still some faint sunshine in broad daylight. How could there be as many as three of those shadows cast on the ground?
He knows that sometimes people will have a little more shadow, but usually the depth and shape are different.
But the shadow of Xue Tutou
Li Sankai thought he was blindsided, so he hurried to the door of the shop and took another look.
I saw Xue Tutou walking on the road dully carrying the coffin, and three shadows, almost identical, surrounded him.
ghost!
Could it be that there are ghosts around Xue Tutou, so there are two more shadows?
Li Sankai couldn't help but tremble, and the next moment, his whole body froze there.
Because he found that, although Xue Tutou was walking forward with the coffin on his shoulders, he turned his head strangely and looked at him seriously.
The eyes were cold and malicious, like a cold poisonous snake.
Li Sankai was so frightened that he hurriedly closed the shop door and returned to his small courtyard.
At this time, he only felt that there were ghosts in the coffins placed in the courtyard.
Without any hesitation, Li Sankai woke up his younger sister Li Mei, who was resting on the bed, and told him what he had seen in a panic.
Li Mei trembled in fright, and said, "Brother, what are you talking about, Xue catcher turned into a ghost?"
Li Sankai nodded in panic, and said, "Let's move immediately, to Liuhuai City."
"But mother" Li Mei couldn't help but wonder.
"Even if we let my mother lie in the car, we have to leave. This place can't stay anymore. I'll go find the car, you pack up your things and start off right away."
It can be seen that Li Sankai has panicked, Li Mei didn't dare to wait any longer, and got up quickly.
Li Sankai hurried out of the door and headed for the horse market in the county seat.
Along the way, there were a few passers-by here and there in the city, all in a hurry.
Most of the shops on the street are closed, and some eaves have even been crawled with cobwebs, making them look deserted.
While passing by some passers-by, Li Sankai found that some of them had several shadows.
There is more than one ghost in the city?
This ghostly place really can't stay anymore.
Li Sankai tried his best to keep calm, but his hands in his sleeves still couldn't help shaking.
At this time, he couldn't help but think of Ji Que, that classmate who was born with supernatural powers and could push him out of the water with one shot.
With him here, he could feel at ease when he encountered that kind of thing.
But Ji Que has been away from this county for many years.
When buying horses at the horse market, his hands shaking when he gave money.
Because there are many people who have moved in the county, this horse market is considered the best place for business.
After buying a big carriage, Li Sankai hurried home, and when he returned to his yard, he almost sat down on the ground in fright.
I saw my mother got out of bed at some point and was standing in the yard, looking at him with a smile.
Li Mei stood beside her, trembling, "Brother, mother, mother said she can get out of bed now."
Aunt Li stood there, her face extremely pale, like a piece of paper.
He looked at his son and said, "Sankai, I heard you are going to move?"
Li Sankai's face suddenly lost all color. If he hadn't tried his best to hold back, he might have urinated.
My own mother has been sitting in the shadow of the eaves, and she can't see a few shadows, but this abnormal behavior is really scary enough.
The looming sunlight shone on his body, but he couldn't feel any warmth.
Aunt Li stood there with a rare smile on her face, like a dummy.
You know, my mother has always had a weird temper, and she rarely smiles a few times a year, so at this time, Li Sankai only thinks that this smile is fake.
Sister Li Mei should have discovered this a long time ago, so she couldn't hide her panic.
However, these two brothers and sisters are considered people who have experienced storms, and they can barely maintain their composure.
Li Sankai swallowed, and said, "Mom, why are you up? We are moving, and you can see that many people have almost moved."
Unexpectedly, Aunt Li did not object this time, but nodded in agreement: "Then let's go."
Looking at their mother's appearance, the two sisters naturally didn't dare to say anything, so they reluctantly packed up their things and set out on the road.
Aunt Li got into the carriage, and because she was very close to the other party this time, Li Sankai could even smell a faint smell of corpses.
As soon as the carriage was about to set off, Aunt Li asked, "Why doesn't Meier come up and sit with your mother?"
Li Mei was sweating profusely from fright. Just as she was about to speak, Li Sankai said first: "This horse is not very obedient. I asked my sister to help me."
There was no response from the curtained compartment, and the two brothers and sisters were in a cold sweat.
They pulled the horses, and they were not in a hurry to leave the county seat, but walked on the street.
There is often no one in the area outside the city, and if the ghost gets into trouble, no one will even hear the call for help.
The two siblings just hope to meet some people who can help them.
The time for a cup of tea passed, and Aunt Li's voice came out from the carriage again—"Which way are you going?".
Li Mei hurriedly said: "Mother, recently there is a shortcut to the east of the town, let's go there."
The carriage was silent again, and Li Sankai and Li Mei felt that their souls were about to lose half of their souls.
It is almost certain that sitting in this car is no longer their mother.
It is impossible for their mother not to know that there is only one entrance and exit in this county, and it is on the west side.
There is a river outside on the east side, so there is no road there.
The two brothers and sisters were walking on the road, as if they were mourning their concubine.
Sangshui County is considered half-abandoned. Even in broad daylight, there are very few people on the road.
Even if you meet a few people sometimes, some shadows are not right.
For a moment Li Sankai and Li Mei thought this was a ghost's lair, and they were the lambs who fell into it.
At this time, Aunt Li in the carriage was obviously a little impatient, and said, "Why are you still in the city?"
Li Sankai hurriedly said: "I'm going out right away, I'm going out right away."
No one saw it. When Li Sankai answered this sentence, his forehead was covered with sweat.
Li Mei next to her had a kitchen knife in her arms, and her hands were constantly shaking.
At this time, who can save them?
