NOVEL NEXT Chapter 8
"You've seen... Ghost? "
Saburo lowered his body, and his voice was a little low.
It can be seen that the old man is trying his best to restrain his body at this moment, but his slightly trembling body is still telling the fear in the old man's heart at this moment.
Obviously, the so-called evil ghost must have given the old man an extremely frightening scene, and perhaps, this is also the reason why the old man is lonely.
Perhaps, there are also happiness belonging to the old man who is destroyed by evil spirits along with the smell of blood.
"I haven't seen a ghost."
Su Mu shook his head.
Hearing Su Mu say that he had never seen a ghost, the old man seemed to be relieved, and his whole body seemed to relax a lot.
"Then why do you believe that there are so-called ghosts in this world?"
The old man was a little puzzled.
Although there are legends or stories about ghosts in this world, for most people, they only think that they are just legends or stories, and the so-called ghosts do not exist in the world.
"Because, I think there are so-called ghosts in this world."
Su Mu said lightly.
Of course, he couldn't tell the other party why he knew there were ghosts in this world.
Su Mu's answer made the old man feel a little surprised, but he was also quickly surprised.
In this world, most people think that the so-called ghosts are just characters in stories, and they don't really exist in the world, but some people believe that they are not stories.
It's like someone who believes that there is a so-called 'God' in this world.
"What happens when an ordinary person encounters an evil spirit?"
Su Mu asked.
"It can only be reduced to food for evil spirits."
Saburo took another sip, a deep layer of fear in his cloudy eyes.
"Then if you encounter evil spirits, how can you not let yourself become food for evil spirits?"
Su Mu whispered.
"Ordinary people don't have any ability to resist in the face of evil ghosts, and only by becoming a ghost hunter can they resist the ability of evil ghosts."
"So how to become a ghost hunter."
Su Mu continued to ask.
The old man raised his head and looked at Su Mu, at this moment, San Lang seemed to see the other party's expectation, and the young man seemed to have discovered something.
"It's not that being a ghost hunter gives you the ability to fight against evil spirits, but the most important thing is the courage to fight evil spirits."
The old man clenched his fists slightly, his cloudy eyes filled with struggle and self-blame, once, driven by hatred for evil ghosts, he embarked on the road of becoming a ghost hunter.
After becoming a ghost hunter, he thought he could finally slay evil spirits.
But it wasn't until he really faced the evil ghost that he realized what a terrifying creature it was, and he didn't realize that he was far from having the courage to fight the evil ghost.
"Courage ..."
Su Mu murmured.
"Only by confronting the evil spirits will you understand what a terrifying monster it is."
The old man gulped wine, perhaps, there was some painful and sad experience that the old man could not forget, and he could only numb himself through alcohol.
"Courage."
Su Mu repeated again, and looked up at the other party again:
"Maybe in the face of evil ghosts, I will understand the horror of evil ghosts, which will make me afraid and make me tremble, but I think that if the other party wants to take my life, take what I care about, and seize my happiness, I think I should not lack the courage to confront the other party."
San Lang put down the wine jug, his eyes fell on Su Mu's body, and when he saw the other party looking at him seriously, he also understood that the other party may have discovered his identity, although he didn't know how the other party found out his identity, but these are not important.
He was just a failed swordsman who had lost the courage to fight the demons, a cowardly man who had faced the demons only to tremble and hide beside his teammates.
I can only live in pain and fear for the rest of my life.
"You want to be a ghost hunter?"
San Lang got up slightly, his old eyes staring at him deadly.
"I think I should have the ability to fight against evil spirits, so that when the evil spirits come, my happiness will not be destroyed by the evil spirits with the smell of blood."
Su Mu spoke quietly.
When he came to this world, he didn't want to be food for evil spirits.
The old man closed his eyes, his mind echoed with his own painful memories, once he also had a happy family, but with the arrival of the evil ghost, with the smell of blood, his happiness was broken, once he watched the terrible evil ghost destroy all his happiness.
"If you are willing, I, a pathetic coward, am willing to give you some guidance and teach you some knowledge about fighting evil spirits, but I just hope that when the time comes, if you really face that terrible evil spirit, don't be like me, lack the courage to face it."
The old man sat down and gulped down his wine.
"And so, thank you."
Su Mu said gratefully.
As for whether he has the courage to face evil spirits, he feels that when he has the strength to fight evil spirits, the so-called courage, he will not lack it.
