Chapter 15 Pearl World
Chapter 15 Pearl World
After leaving there, I didn't ask Mingnu to teleport me back to Infinite City. Instead, I asked her to switch my original body and clone, and replace and take back the clone of the blood demon art, because I wanted to go to the nearest city nearby to meet a familiar "person" of mine.
It was almost dawn at this moment, and households began to open their shops. In an instant, the small street was crowded with people, just like a market.
My hearing is very good (because I am a ghost so my hearing is very good), so I can hear the noise, footsteps, and even the slight sounds of beating and scolding. These sounds keep coming and make me feel very irritated.
Although it was not yet completely light, my body could still feel the burning heat. I quickened my pace, wanting to get to where I wanted to go quickly.
After a while, I came to a small wooden house with the word "Medicine" printed on it. Unlike other houses, it was built in the middle of a woods, as if it was isolated from the world. But at this moment, I didn't think much about it, because the pain of the burning sun made me feel so painful that I raised my hand in front of the door and started knocking.
Dong! Dong! — Dong! Dong! (Special knocking method, with different sounds, intervals, and strength, like Morse code.)
Passersby on the street saw me knocking on the door from afar, and one of them walked up to me and said to me.
"Sir, I don't know what happened to you, but the doctor here only works at night, so..."
Before the man could finish his words, there was a sudden "clang" sound, and the "door" opened, but there was no one inside to open the door.
The man was obviously frightened. According to his own knowledge, this small hospital has been open for a long time, but it was always open only at night. However, it opened in the morning today, which obviously made him feel a little unbelievable.
I ignored him and went in quickly. The door closed the moment I entered, leaving the man outside, staring blankly at everything in front of him.
After I went in, the burning sensation slowly dissipated and it was pitch black inside, but ghosts could see clearly in the dark. I looked at the decorations inside and my eyes were fixed on a vase with a blue and white pattern on the table.
I walked forward, held the vase, and turned right twice. After doing all this, I took two steps back. The floor under my feet suddenly seemed to disappear. I fell down without paying attention, and said helplessly with my eyes closed.
"Really? We've been talking about this for a long time. Why not build stairs? Why build a slide..."
It landed on the ground in just a few seconds. He was still considerate enough to put a sofa cushion on the ground.
In this basement, in front of me there was a "person" with his back to me, wearing a white coat worn by medical staff and standing on a flat table. He was holding a test tube in his hand and mixing different potions, and on the table there were many glass test tubes and beakers filled with potions.
"Jushi."
I spoke the name of the person in front of me in my original voice, but there was a gentle tone in my voice.
The person turned around in astonishment, and our eyes met at this moment. She had long black hair, parted in the middle and combed into a large, low bun, secured with a floral hairpin. Her eyes were obviously gentle, like a lavender mist, but unfortunately she was wearing a mask over her mouth, so I couldn't see clearly.
Tamayo immediately put down the test tube in her hand, ran to me quickly like a little girl, took off her mask, and spoke to me with surprise in her tone.
"Master Muzan?!"
Before she became a ghost, her physical age was 19 years old (because she got the disease at this age), but her baby face made her look closer to 15-16 years old. Although she had experienced a hundred years in her heart, she looked dignified, steady and elegant in front of everyone, but for some reason, she looked like a little girl in front of me.
I spread my arms, straightened my back, and spoke to her with a slightly excited tone. (After all, we hadn't seen each other for at least ten years.)
"Come, give me a hug!"
After hearing what I said, she jumped up and hugged me without any hesitation. If others saw this scene, they would definitely think it was an old father hugging his daughter.
Although her hug was not strong, the impact of her jumping up and hugging was very strong, and I even felt pain in my waist without any preparation. (Although it was not a big deal.)┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
“[Fuck… Is it necessary to use so much force? My waist…]”
I endured the pain and held Tamayo in my arms. I couldn't just put her down right after I picked her up, as if I were weak.
At this moment, the secret door of the basement suddenly opened, and a figure slowly came in, holding a wooden butterfly plate in his hand, and shouted words of concern.
"Ms. Tamayo, it's time to consume blood."
I looked towards the secret door in confusion, but I was holding Tamayo at the moment, and although it didn't block my entire head, it still blocked a little, so I couldn't see clearly.
But I heard the person's voice clearly, it was a woman's. I moved my head slightly and tried my best to look at that person, but she was looking straight at me at this moment, as if she was fixed by something.
She was wearing a green kimono and had long black hair. Her eyes were like bright emeralds that could even glow slightly in the dark. Her features were soft and beautiful, but her face was pale.
Obviously, she is a "ghost"!
After I saw the woman's face clearly in the distance, my doubts were put to rest and I spoke to her in a gentle voice.
"Long time no see, Ms. Qinye~"
