Strange Cards

Chapter 248 The Strange Monk

After strolling around for a while to digest their food, the three of them went home to sleep.

While Shigure was sound asleep, he suddenly heard something fall onto the table outside the window.

The sound was crisp, like some metal object falling onto the table.

Shi Yu got up, raised her hand to draw the evil sword to her side, and then pushed open the balcony door.

Shi Yu turned on the balcony light and found a copper coin placed perfectly on the table on the balcony.

"This thing is..."

"Ghost weapon?"

"Why isn't there any aura corresponding to the rank?"

Shi Yu pondered for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer, so she simply used the slashing knife to press down the copper coin and went to bed.

Shortly after Shigure fell asleep, wisps of black smoke rose from the balcony, eventually coalescing into a human figure.

Chun looked at the sleeping family of three inside and muttered softly.

"The boss is really something."

"Why are you asking me to deliver copper coins in the middle of the night?"

"Seriously, can't we find a way to give him the script tomorrow?"

Just as Tsubaki was muttering to herself with her head down, Yoru's voice suddenly came through the earphones in her ears.

"Tsubaki."

"Why did it take you so long to go out and buy a late-night snack? Hurry up and come back!"

"The next game is about to start."

"Okay, okay, I'll be right back."

After Chun finished speaking, she turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared again. Steel Claw, hidden in the shadows, watched Chun leave and then disappeared back into the shadows.

……

When Shi Yu woke up at dawn, he found that a red string had appeared in the middle of the copper coin, and the copper coin had become a decoration on the scabbard of the slashing dagger.

"This thing is..."

Just as Shi Yu was about to see what was going on, Shi Yanlan rushed in, grabbing Shi Yu's hand.

"Come on, brother."

"Don't just stand there! Didn't you promise to go to the amusement park with me?"

Shi Yu looked at Shi Yanlan, who was dressed as a little yellow duck and looked excited. After putting away the evil sword, he placed the cloak on the table and patted Shi Yanlan's head.

"So, are you planning to have breakfast at home?"

"I know a breakfast place that's really good, and it's right on the way to the amusement park."

"Walk."

After hearing Shi Yanlan's answer, Shi Yu changed into a white tracksuit, then casually put on a light jacket and went out.

What Shigure didn't notice was that the copper coin tied to the demon blade was gradually rusting, and some sticky red substance was appearing on it.

However, the red substance was absorbed by the evil blade as soon as it appeared, and had no chance to spread.

After leaving Jiangtian Haoyuan, Shi Yu drove a car at random and went to a wonton shop. After having breakfast, he took Shi Yanlan to Nanhai Amusement Park.

Shi Yu looked at the amusement park, which was packed with people because of the holiday, put Shi Yanlan on her shoulders, and then helped her buy tickets and go inside.

"Where would you like to start playing?"

"That carousel."

Shi Yu looked at the carousel and remembered the first time she brought Bai Yu here.

Shi Yu only paused for a moment before starting to play with Shi Yanlan.

Then Shiyu discovered that Shiyanlan's order of playing the attractions was exactly the same as Baiyu's first time playing them, even the roller coaster was the last one they rode together.

As expected, Shi Yanlan screamed in fright, and her legs felt shaky after she got down.

Upon seeing this, Shi Yu hugged Shi Yanlan tightly and began searching around.

"No, the haunted house is still there?"

"I remember Yu Yan blew up this haunted house, didn't she?"

Shi Yu looked at the haunted house that had once housed two S-class ghosts, and then went inside to take a look.

Although Yu Yan demolished the old haunted house, Shi Yu still had a vague sense of unease.

Shi Yu always felt that this piece of land had some bad feng shui; the feeling was mysterious and mysterious, yet it was real.

After entering the haunted house, Shi Yanlan was so frightened that she turned into a koala, clinging tightly to Shi Yu's chest.

Fortunately, nothing went wrong. Shigure even sent his shadow to check, and there was no sign of ghosts at all in the entire Nankai Amusement Park.

After learning that there were no ghosts, Shigure breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the South China Sea Amusement Park was, in a way, his starting point, and he still felt a bit nostalgic about it.

However, Shigure's starting village was teeming with two demons who were considered the ultimate bosses at the time, and Shigure almost collapsed before he could even start his business.

At this moment, Shi Yanlan, who had just come out, seemed to have seen something and tugged at Shi Yu's hand.

"Look over there, Shigure."

"What's that over there? It's reflecting light!"

Shi Yu glanced in the direction Shi Yanlan was pointing, and then her eyes were directly illuminated by the reversed light.

Shi Yu took out the sunglasses hanging on her collar, put them on, and looked in that direction.

It would have been better if I hadn't looked, because wow, everywhere I looked, all I saw were bald heads!

Without exception, the group of bald men were all dressed in bright red robes, and each had an enormous string of Buddhist prayer beads around their necks.

Shi Yu looked closely and found that the bald men were just sitting there chanting sutras and striking wooden fish, and there wasn't a guy with a side-parted mustache giving a speech.

But if it really existed, Shigure would not hesitate to whip up a Gatling gun to put him to physical sedation.

After all, Little Mustache's illustrious reputation is clearly recorded in history books; those 500,000-mark loaves of bread represented the birth of a devil.

Shi Yu looked at the group of monks chanting sutras while striking wooden fish, and suddenly sensed something was wrong.

"Bloodlust?"

Why do these bald men exude a bloodthirsty aura?

"Bloodlust?"

Shi Yanlan turned around, a lollipop dangling from her mouth.

"Didn't Sister Baiyu say that this thing will attach itself to anyone who has killed? Surely no one has never killed anyone, right?"

"It's normal for normal people to kill animals; even the eldest brother kills pigs."

"But it would be abnormal for a monk who is supposed to be compassionate to have a bloodthirsty aura on him."

Shi Yu took out a cigarette from his pocket, struck a match on his thigh, lit the cigarette, and took a puff.

"Moreover, this bloodthirsty aura is unusually strong, unlike anything one would expect from normal killing."

"This level of bloodthirsty aura clearly indicates that someone has killed someone."

"I sensed the mournful cries within it using the Asura technique."

"But...were they killing good people or bad people?"

Shi Yu glanced at the leading monk, then slowly moved closer.

P.S.: After finishing this new event, there should be one or two more things to do, and then I'll prepare to move on to the later stages.

This is the knife-wielding man that everyone knows.

This time, the author has really sharpened their blade, hehe.
