Chapter 353 Don't Hold an Umbrella in the House
Chapter 353 Don't Hold an Umbrella in the House
The boss had a very forced smile on his face and nodded, saying, "You can live anywhere you want. I'll listen to you, young man."
I was already filled with resentment in my heart, and kept cursing inwardly, saying, this is not your home, why are you making such random promises here?
However, he knew he was in the wrong when he wanted to kill Su Ming before, and thought that the other party might want to make him pay a price in this way, so he did not dare to get angry.
After all, if you accidentally annoy the other party, and he doesn't play any tricks but kills you directly, then you will be the one who is unlucky.
Su Ming said to the herbalist, "Look, I told you this family likes to do good deeds, so you can stay here and live in peace."
The herbalist was very moved. Seeing that the boss had gauze wrapped around his hands, he quickly took off the medicine basket and took out a bright red blood Ganoderma lucidum from it. This blood Ganoderma lucidum was quite magical, as if it had life and was beating slightly, like a heart constantly expanding and contracting.
He handed the blood-activating Ganoderma to the boss and introduced it, "I think this gentleman must have been injured and bled a lot recently, and his complexion is not very good. It just so happens that I picked this blood-activating Ganoderma from the mountain, which can replenish blood and qi, and gave it to this gentleman as a living allowance."
How could the boss dare to accept this thing? The first time he saw it, he felt that the blood Ganoderma lucidum was evil and did not look like a serious thing. His ancestors had collected many similar items, which had trained his vision.
He pushed it directly to Su Ming: "This is not easy for me to accept, so I'll give it to this young friend. He can do whatever he wants with it."
"Well, as for which room you stay in, leave it to the housekeeper to arrange. I have something else to do here, so I'll leave first."
After giving the instructions, he left the small building with two bodyguards and went to the ancestral hall to seek protection from his ancestors. He only left an old housekeeper to entertain Su Ming and the herbalist.
The boss stood at the entrance of the ancestral hall, looking at the two-story building, muttering, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor, and it's not me who kept you here on a rainy day. Go find trouble with whoever kept you here, don't come find me."
It would be perfect for him if the herbalist could use his magical powers to drive away the stranger in the green raincoat completely.
In addition to the things he needed to worry about here, he could also hear that the golem and the monkey-faced monster were fighting fiercely over there, and the noise could be heard in the ancestral hall.
For him, the most favorable outcome would be if both the golem and Su Ming died.
He also hoped that this would happen, although from a rational point of view, he could analyze that the possibility of such a situation occurring was not high.
But this does not affect his beautiful expectation that things will develop as he imagined.
The boss put his hands together and prayed earnestly again: "May our ancestors bless us and kill that golem and that person! I beg you..."
The two bodyguards had already taken out their muskets, confirmed that they were ready to fire, and were on alert. They couldn't help but complain, "Why is this town suddenly not peaceful?"
"It's really like one crisis after another. When will everything be as peaceful as before?"
In the past, they also felt that there were various taboos in the town, which could be violated if they were not careful, and it was not very safe.
However, compared with the current situation, the previous days were simply calm and safe as can be.
……
……
The old housekeeper took the herbalist to a room, put down the key, and left in a hurry. Although he was old, his legs and feet were still agile, and he wanted to live a few more years. He didn't want to lie down so soon because of taboos. Only Su Ming was left, staying with the herbalist.
The herbalist walked around the room and came out again, saying with emotion: "I never thought that I could live in such a nice house in my lifetime."
"It is really thanks to the noble man that I can enjoy this great blessing."
He changed the subject and said, "I don't know if you have ever heard of this saying. If a doctor saves lives with medicine, and saves many people, he will have merits. After he dies, the King of Hell will take special care of him, and he will have a good family in his next life. However, doctors have to use medicine to save people. The older the medicine, the stronger the medicinal properties. This medicine is transformed from the corpses of plants. People have spirits, and plants also have spirits. The older the age, the stronger the spirituality. Picking old herbs is equivalent to killing and creating karma. Therefore, most herbalists will not have a good end. Even if they die, they will not be at peace..."
Su Ming nodded and continued, "Of course I have heard of it. Every time it rains and the yin energy is strong, the vengeful spirits of the herbs that died tragically will haunt the herbalists, causing them to accidentally fall off a cliff while picking herbs, or to accidentally eat poisonous herbs and poisons and die. There are also special vengeful spirits that will take over the herbalists' nests and parasitize in their bodies, gradually influencing and replacing them..."
"Is this what you want to say?" Su Ming directly helped him finish what he wanted to say.
The horror game hint also appeared at this time.
[You have violated the taboo "Don't keep anyone on a rainy day"]
[Current cumulative number of taboos touched: 9]
The herbalist was a little surprised at first, and then a strange smile appeared on his face: "Since you know everything, why do you want to let me stay here overnight?"
As he spoke, several colorful vines crawled out of the medicine basket behind him. They looked like some kind of plants, but their postures and expressions were very similar to snakes. It seemed as if the colorful snakes were scrambling to crawl out of the medicine basket, which looked quite creepy.
The herbalist's own face also turned into a giant ginseng. The ginseng lines on it formed human facial features, and he looked very similar to the original herbalist.
The herbalist's voice was extremely low: "Haha, I originally wanted to wait until you were asleep before sending you to death. Now that you have seen through me, I will give you a quick death."
"People have always eaten ginseng. Today, I will let you see and experience how ginseng eats people."
As he spoke, the colorful vines crawled towards Su Ming from all directions, leaving him no chance to escape.
The herbalist: "I'll eat you first, and then the rest. None of them can escape. You go ahead, they will come over to accompany you soon."
Su Ming held a green umbrella in his hand, his face showing no panic: "Yes, if I know everything, why should I let you stay here overnight? What do you think?"
As he spoke, he had already opened the green umbrella in his hand.
The herbalist's face changed color in an instant, and the lines on it became chaotic and trembled wildly. He was obviously panicked to the extreme: "You, you, how dare you?"
The horror game prompt appeared again in front of Su Ming.
[You have violated the taboo of "Don't open an umbrella indoors"]
[Current cumulative number of taboos touched: 10]
