"Are you going to stay?"
Facing the somewhat anxious eyes of the innkeeper, Cheng Hao nodded subconsciously. He raised his head and looked at the street that appeared to be gloomy due to the gradually darkening sky. His tone was unprecedentedly firm.
"Stay!"
As Cheng Hao's voice fell, the innkeeper swiftly closed the door of the inn. He then took out two yellow talismans from his sleeves and neatly stuck them on the two doors.
"Let's go, I'll take you to your room. Your room is on the corner of the first floor. It's very easy to find!"
Carrying a somewhat dim oil lamp, the pale white flame lit up the lobby. The innkeeper's face, which appeared somewhat pale under the illumination of the flame, revealed a trace of relief.
Cheng Hao cautiously followed behind him. After passing through the lobby, they didn't walk far before arriving at the guest room.
"This is your room. If you have nothing to do at night, just stay in the room. Don't wander around. The nights here are not peaceful!"
After opening the door, the innkeeper left with the oil lamp. From beginning to end, he didn't mention the cost of the room to Cheng Hao.
Taking a deep breath, after the innkeeper left, Cheng Hao locked the door. At this time, he had the mind to carefully examine the situation of the room.
This was a small room of about ten square meters. The area wasn't large. Other than a bed, a table, and a chair, there was almost no extra furniture.
On the table was a tea set. Cheng Hao touched it. The water in the teapot was still warm. It should have been freshly brewed.
Next to the teapot, there was a small oil lamp. Next to the oil lamp was a flint. Under the flint, there was a large stack of talisman papers.
Seeing this, Cheng Hao didn't hesitate at all. He took out the stack of talisman papers and stuck them on the door, windows, walls, floor, and other parts of the room. Strangely, these talisman papers didn't have glue or anything like that. But as long as they were close to the walls, windows, and other parts of the room, they would automatically stick on. It didn't take much trouble.
After pasting these places, Cheng Hao still didn't feel at ease. He stood on the table and pasted talisman papers on the roof. After pasting talisman papers all over the room, he let out a sigh of relief. He held the remaining talisman papers in his hand for self-defense.
After being busy for so long, the sky outside was already dark. Through the gap in the window, Cheng Hao saw that the peddlers and pedestrians on the street outside hadn't left. The street was still brightly lit and very lively.
"Could it be that I lost the bet? The street outside is the real living place? And this inn is the real dead place? "
Cheng Hao's heart trembled. He even wanted to open the door and rush into the street. But then he shook his head and stayed in his room. Since he was going to bet, he might as well bet to the end. Swaying back and forth was a big taboo!
Dong dong dong!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Cheng Hao held the talisman papers and asked in a low voice.
"Young Master, I'm a little thirsty. Do you have water there? Can you let me in to drink some water?" A woman's voice that made one feel weak all over sounded from outside the door. Just a voice could make one's heart fill with endless desire.
Although Cheng Hao only had the body of a mortal, his temperament had not been weakened in the slightest. This bit of bewitching voice was really unable to affect his mind.
"Sorry, I don't have any!" Cheng Hao replied coldly.
"Oh, Young Master, why are you so cold? It's a long night. Aren't you lonely? Why don't you open the door and we can enjoy the night scenery together? Isn't it beautiful? "The woman outside the door still didn't give up and continued to tempt him.
Cheng Hao frowned and looked at the talisman papers in the room. At this time, the talisman papers were faintly smoking. Obviously, the woman outside the door was not a human at all!
"I'm not lonely. Get out!" Cheng Hao didn't want to talk nonsense with her, so his voice became much colder.
"Humph!"
The female ghost outside the door seemed to be irritated. She banged on the door, but with the talisman papers, the door couldn't be broken at all. After trying for a long time, she didn't know where to start. Gradually, there was no sound, and it seemed that she had left.
Phew!
Cheng Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Not long ago, he was an Immortal Golden Celestial. Now, he was nervous because of a small female ghost. If this news spread, he would be laughed at.
"Haha, Young Master, I'm coming!"
Cheng Hao just breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, outside the window of the room, there was a gloomy laughter. Then, a female ghost with only half a face and empty eyes appeared in the gap of the window.
Perhaps because of the talisman papers, the female ghost's whole body couldn't come in, but her long tongue, which was as thin as a cicada's wing, extended slowly through the gap of the window.
Humph!
Cheng Hao's eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. When the female ghost's tongue reached in, he directly stuck a talisman on it. Immediately, green smoke rose up and the female ghost's long black tongue disappeared into thin air.
"You win!"
Perhaps the female ghost knew that she couldn't do anything to Cheng Hao, so she didn't pester him anymore. After saying this, she didn't make any sound and seemed to have gone far away.
After waiting for a long time, Cheng Hao didn't receive any more harassment from the female ghost. Instead, he heard continuous shrill screams coming from the street outside the inn.
Cheng Hao looked out the window and saw that the originally brightly lit street was now filled with an eerie Yin Qi. The merchants and pedestrians who had been talking and laughing all revealed sinister smiles as they floated up into the air, turning into malicious ghosts. They looked at the three True God powerhouses standing in the middle of the street, their jaws dropping in disdain.
"Damn it, what world is this?"
"Ah, my arm, my arm is gone, who tore off my arm?"
"My leg, my leg is gone, damn Human Tribe boy, what world have you put us in? Give us back our cultivation bases! "
Hearing the hysterical screams, Cheng Hao swallowed his saliva. Although he couldn't see clearly through the gap of the window, Cheng Hao could vaguely see that the three Real God experts, who were originally invincible in the Universe Sea, were now being eaten by countless Ghost Qi!
Cheng Hao shuddered at the thought of all the pedestrians on the bustling streets during the day being transformed from malicious ghosts.
Fortunately, he had made the right bet this time! Otherwise, he would have ended up like the three Real Gods who were being eaten by hundreds of Ghost Qi.
The mournful cries gradually faded away. Obviously, the 3 True God powerhouses had died. Vaguely, Cheng Hao could see that the 3 of them had also turned into evil spirits, joining the army of evil spirits as they roamed the streets.
