In front of Wang Changsheng sat a young woman dressed in Taiqing Palace attire. Her body did not emit a single trace of magic power. Beside the two of them were many other diners. However, they did not seem to notice the existence of the two of them and only ate their food peacefully. [No pop-up window.]
"For you to be able to make it to this stage, you are indeed not bad." The woman sized up Wang Changsheng and praised.
"Senior, you flatter me. This junior was just lucky. I don't know what this stage is about. Please enlighten me." Wang Changsheng humbly said and went straight to the point.
"It's very simple. There is a ghost here. It does not have the ability to attack, but it knows some illusions. It could be a person, an animal, or even a table. What you need to do is find it and bring it to me. You have two hours and you only have three chances. In other words, if the three people (things) you bring do not have this ghost, it will be considered a failure," the woman said word by word.
When Immortal Wang heard this, his brows furrowed. This trial was just too difficult, right?! It was one thing for the ghost to transform into a person, but it could also transform into an animal or an inanimate object. How was he supposed to find it?
Suddenly, Wang Changsheng's gaze stopped at the wooden table in front of the two of them. He had a thoughtful expression.
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. In the previous stage, the formation core transformed into the imperial jade seal and was on the Emperor's desk. This time, the ghost might be right in front of him.
Thinking of this, Wang Changsheng pointed at the wooden table in front of him and said, "Senior, this junior found the ghost. It's this table."
"You still have two chances." The woman took a sip of tea and said indifferently.
When Wang Changsheng heard this, he bitterly smiled and swept his gaze across the surrounding diners.
There were men and women, old and young. The dishes they ordered were all different.
Wang Changsheng took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He walked towards the diners and vigilantly scanned the diners' faces, trying to find something.
"Eh?" Wang Changsheng suddenly stopped and couldn't help but exclaim softly.
Following Wang Changsheng's gaze, there was a seven or eight-year-old little girl and a seventy or eighty-year-old old woman. There was nothing unusual about their expressions.
What made Wang Changsheng feel strange was that the two people were wearing coarse clothes, but the table was full of J duck fish. There was a dog tied to the table, and the little girl threw some food to the dog from time to time. This was too unreasonable.
Although Wang Changsheng did not grow up in the secular world, he also knew that coarse cloth was the clothes worn by the lowest level of mortals. With their financial resources, they may not be able to eat R during the New Year, let alone order a table of J duck fish R, especially the little girl who fed the dog R food. No matter how he looked at it, there was a problem.
Of course, it was also possible that they deliberately created an illusion to mislead Wang Changsheng.
With this thought in mind, Wang Changsheng walked towards the little girl and said, "Don't worry.
"Auntie, little sister, there are no more seats. Can I sit down and eat with you?"
"Of course! Big brother, if you don't mind, eat with us! We can't finish it anyway. "Before the old woman could answer, the little girl opened her mouth and said with a smile.
"Then I'll have to bother you." Wang Changsheng did not refuse and sat down to eat.
"By the way, little sister, where are the others in your family? Why is it only you and your mother-in-law? "Wang Changsheng asked casually.
"My parents died when I was very young. Only my mother-in-law and I are left. The little girl's expression was a little sad.
"Yuner, are you full? Don't talk so much to strangers." The old woman frowned and rushed.
"I'm full, mother-in-law." The little girl nodded and was very obedient.
"If you're full, then let's go!" The old woman threw a piece of silver on the table and hurriedly left with the little girl.
Looking at the backs of the grandmother and granddaughter leaving, Wang Changsheng had a thoughtful expression.
The little girl was innocent and there was nothing unusual about her. However, the old woman did not even look at Wang Changsheng from beginning to end. She did not even allow the little girl to talk to Wang Changsheng. If there was no problem, Wang Changsheng would not believe it.
Thinking of this, Wang Changsheng quickly followed.
The old woman did not notice Wang Changsheng behind her. Holding the little girl's hand, she walked in a certain direction. Wang Changsheng followed closely.
After several turns, the old woman led the little girl into a secluded alley.
Wang Changsheng hesitated for a moment before following. As soon as he entered the alley, he put on a Concealment Talisman.
The old woman led the little girl into a remote courtyard. Wang Changsheng did not follow.
He only suspected that the old woman was a ghost. He did not have any real evidence. It would be great if he could test it out, but ordinary things might not work on her.
Suddenly, Wang Changsheng's eyes flashed. He seemed to have thought of something. He took off the Concealment Talisman on his body. With a flip of his right hand, the Golden Moon Sword appeared in his hand. He held the sword and slashed at the wooden door.
With a "bang", the wooden door was broken by Wang Changsheng. Wang Changsheng walked straight in.
"Woof, woof." As soon as Wang Changsheng walked in, the dog barked at him non-stop. However, it was afraid of Wang Changsheng's aura and did not dare to approach.
"What's going on? It's you." The old woman also walked out of the room. When she saw Wang Changsheng, she frowned slightly and said, "This old woman has lived for so long, but I have never seen someone like you. Just now, when I invited you to eat, you were not grateful. Now, you broke my door. What do you want?"
"Big brother." When the little girl saw this scene, her young face showed a touch of fear. She hid behind the old woman and poked her little head out to look at Wang Changsheng curiously.
"Nothing. I just want you to go somewhere with me." Wang Changsheng put away the Golden Moon Sword and said lightly.
"What if I don't go?"
"That's not up to you." After saying that, Wang Changsheng flipped his right hand and a long wooden sword appeared in his hand. It was the peach wood sword that had a restraining effect on ghosts.
Seeing Wang Changsheng take out the peach wood sword, the old woman's eyes flashed with a touch of panic.
When Wang Changsheng saw the old woman's reaction, it confirmed his guess. It seemed that this ghost was most likely the old woman.
"Please! I don't want to be rough. "Wang Changsheng pointed the peach wood sword at the door and said.
Seeing this, the old woman sighed and walked out. The little girl led the dog and followed.
"Big brother, can you not kill granny? I can treat you to another meal." On the way, the little girl put on a pitiful look and pleaded with Wang Changsheng.
Wang Changsheng was unmoved. He pointed the peach wood sword at the old woman and told her to walk faster.
"Help! Someone wants to bully this old woman! " As they walked, the old woman suddenly cried and complained. She shouted loudly as she ran forward quickly.
Wang Changsheng frowned and quickly chased after her.
The passersby on the street seemed to be unable to stand it anymore. They stopped Wang Changsheng and began to criticize him.
"You're too much. Bullying an eighty-year-old woman."
"That's right. Let's capture him and send him to the authorities."
"You don't even know how to respect the old and love the young."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the old woman ran into a small alley and disappeared.
Wang Changsheng's face turned cold. He took out more than ten fireball talismans and threw them at the crowd. Those who were hit by the fireballs were immediately burned to ashes.
"Ghost!" Someone shouted, and everyone ran away. In the blink of an eye, there was not a single pedestrian on the street.
"Big brother, let granny go! Granny is very pitiful. "The little girl pleaded.
"Let her go? No problem. Then come with me!" Wang Changsheng pointed the peach wood sword at the little girl and sneered.
"What do you mean, big brother? I don't understand what you're saying. "
"Still playing dumb. How do you know I want to kill granny? How do you know I can kill granny with the peach wood sword? Just now, I used the fireball talisman to kill some mortals. The others all ran away. You're just a seven or eight-year-old child. How can you not be afraid? Other than the fact that you're a ghost, I can't think of a better reason. "
"Big brother, what ghost? I really don't know what you're talking about. I want to find granny." The little girl shook her head and turned to walk in a certain direction.
With a whoosh, a red fireball fell at the little girl's feet. A washbasin-sized hole appeared on the ground.
"Come with me obediently. Otherwise, next time, I can't guarantee that the fireball won't hit you," Wang Changsheng said indifferently.
The little girl's tender face showed a trace of panic. She turned around and reluctantly followed Wang Changsheng to the restaurant.
The restaurant was still the same as before Wang Changsheng left. People were eating and drinking tea. The young woman wearing Taiqing Palace clothes sat in her original seat with a cold expression.
Wang Changsheng pushed the unwilling little girl in front of the young woman.
The young woman glanced at the little girl and said indifferently, "This little girl is a ghost?"
"Precisely. Senior, I wonder if this junior passed or not?" Immortal Wang nodded, asking.
