Chapter 145: A Banquet of Evil Spirits

Chapter 145: A Banquet of Evil Spirits
The grandmother of the Liu family is dead?

Didn’t Liu Baoyu entrust Wu Xian and others to kill the grandmother in the guest room before? How come the grandmother was already dead before they could do anything?
Shouldn’t this banquet be the birthday party for Grandma Liu?

Wu Xian narrowed his eyes.

After hearing the news of Liu's grandmother's death, he finally understood the mechanism of this blessed land.

The time of this blessed land is very strange.

The events that took place in the Liu family mansion were broken up and dispersed among several rooms. The existence of these rooms themselves is non-linear and do not interfere with each other.

But the time experienced by Wu Xian and others, as well as the dead passengers, was linear.

In order to cope with the changes they bring, several rooms will be slightly adjusted according to the changes in human status.

As for the order in which the story develops, it is actually not important, except that in some rooms, you can obtain props that are useful for clearing other rooms.

Young Master Liu boasted loudly about how happy he was after his grandmother died. Every time he got excited, there were many strange noises joining in.

Butler Hu, who had just returned, was suddenly speechless.

"Master, you are drunk."

"I'm not drunk, now you have to call me master!"

Liu Bao's attitude was extremely arrogant, completely different from his polite demeanor in the guest room before.

"Back then, that old woman was still asking people to assign me homework!"

"Now that my grandmother is dead, my master is gone, and even that big toad Liu Xiucai has been cooked for me, who can force me to do my homework?"

"Who else?"

Wu Xian was quite speechless.

It seems that not only human children hate homework, even monsters are almost driven crazy by homework.

But the master left, which made Wu Xian a little disappointed. He had wanted to use the master to spy on the truth about the blessed land.

But maybe it's a good thing that he's gone.

If the 'Master' is really the one who sows the seeds of strange disasters in different worlds as Wu Xian guessed, then his strength is definitely not something that Wu Xian and others can challenge now.

If he were still here, Wu Xian and his men might have been wiped out.

"The old woman died, and I took the 'immortal technique' from her. After being improved by that disgusting old leech, this magic technique has become much more powerful. It is no longer limited to absorbing the life span of offspring, but can also directly absorb the life span of living people!"

"Let Butler Hu tell you about the effect of this magic."

Butler Hu laughed obscenely.

"Rather than listening to me, you might as well just watch the results. Those of you behind the stage, please come out quickly."

Hear the call.

Wu Xian and his companions walked out awkwardly and finally saw the whole picture of the banquet hall.

The entire banquet hall is huge.

The front half is a stage that is more than ten meters long and six or seven meters wide. Below the stage are dozens of tables filled with people... or rather, things.

There are strange birds with human heads and bird bodies, smooth coffin boards, jackals, tigers, leopards, mandrills and sea monsters. Most of these things are strange in shape, with more or less human features on their bodies. It can be said to be a dance of demons, which makes people feel confused.

The human features on the evil spirits are not as harmonious and beautiful as those carefully designed by humans in movies and TV dramas. The human organs they grow are all extremely abrupt and do not match their original bodies at all, which makes people feel nauseous when looking at them.

Wu Xian and his companions had seen most of these evil spirits before, the group outside the circular open space. They had to enter the room to hide in order to avoid them.

Unexpectedly, they also came into the banquet hall!

What is even more horrifying is the food on the tables of these monsters and demons. Most of the food is blood, with pots of maggots, toads, snakes, rats, fish heads, chicken butts, and main dishes that have been chopped into pieces and placed in large pots on the table... Some are raw, some are cooked, and the few that are cooked make people feel even more uncomfortable.

Wu Xian and the others had already felt cold in their hands and feet, and could only try their best not to look at those evil dining tables.

Surrounded by so many evil spirits, it would be impossible to solve the problem in this room by force. They could only follow the arrangements of the host of the banquet and try their best to find a way to survive.

Butler Hu walked onto the stage and passed by Wu Xian and others, his eyes looking as if he was sizing up livestock.

"These guys are incredible. Grandma's death is closely related to them. That's why Master Liu called them here today to seek revenge!"

Liu Baoyu raised his eyebrows.

"Who said I wanted to avenge that old woman?"

His expression was much more lively than the last time I saw him, and he seemed to have upgraded just like Butler Hu.

Although Liu Baoyu doesn't care, Butler Hu still has to consider the reputation of the Liu family.

"Master Liu has decided to have these extremely evil people perform a show to liven up tonight's banquet."

"If their performance is successful, they will not be held responsible for killing Grandma. If their performance fails... then the master will take revenge. You can add another dish to your table!"

After Butler Hu finished speaking, the evil spirits below all stared at Wu Xian and the others viciously. They all hoped that the human performance would fail and they would be put on their dining table. Even if they could get an extra foot, it would be a good deal.

Butler Hu waved his hand and a lottery bucket appeared.

Using magic to create small objects is the fox spirit's specialty, so the evil spirits in the audience didn't react much.

"There is a program engraved on each lot. You must perform the one you draw. Each of the six of you must participate in a program. You can stop only when you have drawn six lots."

"Who will draw the lots, then?"

The six of them discussed it quietly.

Liang Fang will represent everyone to draw the programs.

Du E firmly refused to go up. Wu Xian wanted to try to draw lots, but was opposed by everyone. They all knew that Wu Xian had bad luck. If they let him draw the programs, he might draw some programs that would kill people.

Liang Fang reached in and drew the first stick, which read 'You draw, I guess' and had the number two written underneath, indicating that this show required two people to perform.

She showed the stick to everyone with a confused look on her face.

Just based on the four words "You draw and I guess", no one could imagine what danger this would bring.

Then Liang Fang continued to attack.

Three more program lots were drawn, namely tightrope walking, Telepathy, and Learning to Walk in Handan. Among them, Telepathy is a two-person program, while the other two are for solo performers.

Butler Hu pointed to an empty table below.

"That's where you'll be sitting tonight. You can go there and discuss who should perform each show. I'll give you a cup of tea to think about it."

The six people followed his instructions and came to the empty table.

After seeing the dishes on the table, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps because there were living people on the table, the food on the table was at least edible, including cooked rats and frogs, some chicken butts, fried insects and the like. The only thing that made people feel sick was the staple food on the table.

The plate containing the staple food was one meter in diameter. On it lay a big, steaming frog with a sunken head. Some coriander and chili were sprinkled on the frog's belly.

It looks like pure megafauna.

But Wu Xian saw a sense of familiarity from its wound. This big frog was the one that Wu Xian and his team had killed in the tomb in the study room before...

Toad spirit Liu Xiucai!
