Those dead ghosts all turned pale when they saw the bubbling green wine. Ghosts are not afraid of nothing. They will still die after drinking the poisonous wine from the underworld.
The old ghost pretended to be surprised and said, "What is Mr. Xi trying to do?"
I ignored him and picked up the glass of wine. I turned to look at Jia Hai and asked, "You drank this glass of wine and then you were in ecstasy and finally you didn't want to go back to your hometown, right?"
Jia Hai said in astonishment: "Mr. Xi is truly a god. He knows all this."
"This kind of wine is called intestinal rotting wine. If a living person drinks it, his internal organs will rot in a few minutes. Is it necessary to say whether he will die?" I said, shifting my gaze to the old ghost's face, and then said: "I'm afraid the wine in your hand is different from mine?"
The old ghost looked extremely surprised and was speechless for a moment. I knew clearly in my heart that they must know that I had lost my memory and thought that I had not fully remembered the Taoist magic, and wanted to take the opportunity to kill me. But the old bastard was completely wrong. There were many things that I could not remember, even my mother and the secret recipe for making ghost medicine, but I remembered all the Taoist magic without missing a single thing.
After a while, the old ghost came to his senses and said, "Mr. Xi, you are too suspicious. This is a kind of spring wine, just like the Yin-replenishing pills in your store. If Mr. Xi doesn't like it, then change it for another cup." He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.
Old man Zhang came in from outside with a wine jug, smiled at me kindly, poured wine into the glass, and then left without a word.
I glanced at the wine sideways and was sure there was nothing fishy this time. However, this was aged wine from the underworld and was only suitable for ghosts to drink. Living people who drank it would have diarrhea until they became dehydrated. If they did not drink talisman water to drive away the negative energy in their bodies, they would die.
But since the other party has changed the wine, if I still don't drink it, it will seem that I am not a genuine person. Then I squeezed a drop of blood from my finger and dripped it into the wine glass. The blood slowly spread and merged with the wine. The yang blood dissolves the yin energy, and now it can be drunk.
After I finished the glass of wine with them, the old ghost smiled and said to me: "Mr. Xi, you may not recognize me. It's not your fault. When your grandfather was alive, I went to the ghost store to ask for medicine. You didn't exist at that time, hehe!"
Damn, there’s no need to mention it if I’m not involved, so just mention something that has me involved.
I wasn't in the mood to be polite with him, so I said directly, "I came here today to ask Jia Hai for a cat. I'm leaving now. Thank you for your hospitality, owner of the manor." I turned and stared at Jia Hai, meaning that he should return the cat to me soon.
This kid Jia Hai pretended to be stupid in front of me. He looked at me blankly, at a loss as to what to do.
I said angrily, "Where's the cat?"
Jia Hai rolled his eyes and nodded at the old ghost. The old ghost immediately said, "The cat is very cute and is in Hongye's hands now."
I snorted, thinking, "I don't care if you don't give me the cat, I'm going to get mad. I was just thinking about how to deal with you, a black shop that kills people!"
"Where is Hongye? Ask him to bring the cat over here!" I said coldly.
The old ghost chuckled and said, "Mr. Xi, don't be so angry. Look, the red leaves are right here." Then he turned around and pointed at the wall opposite me.
After hearing this, all the ghosts turned their heads with greedy faces and looked at the wall. The whole wall was painted with a mural, which was a scene of twelve girls in palace costumes dancing gracefully. The colors were bright and lifelike. Each girl had a light veil covering her face, and her eyes were alluring and soul-stirring. Just looking at the picture made people blush and their hearts beat faster. If this was real, wouldn't it be fascinating
