The three slowed down Before Master Bai could finish, the sound of a nursery rhyme came from behind them Master Bai turned to look behind him The two kids with red paint on their faces did not co They just stood a distance away to look at Chen Ge’s group
“Talk as we ed Ol’ Wei and Chen Ge to move forward He combed his mind to come up with the stories that his father had once told hies deep in the ht Other than the Pillar Ghost, Sedan Kids, Wall Spirit, the more difficult ones include the Pillow Ghost, Mummy Wraps, and Skull Lantern”
“Skull Lantern? Can you tell us specifically what these three look like?” Chen Ge and Ol’ Wei had not heard of this before
“In these villages, the pillows that people sleep on have to be burned after the person passes away This is to prevent the forhost is nor in the pillow If one falls asleep on these pillows, they will be tor in their ears
“If you’re lucky, you ht wake up in thethe pillow, and that person will be the Pillow Ghost” The senior did not have a talent in storytelling; the description was rather dry However, Chen Ge made a not of the details of this Pillow Ghost—perhaps he could use it in his Haunted House in the future
“Pillow Ghost cannot stray too far fro as we don’t enter these houses, it should be fine The things that really concern us are the Mummy Wraps and Skull Lantern,” Master Bai said carefully He orried these thing ht really appear in real life
“Mummy Wraps are more difficult to deal with coers put the dead person in when they carry out the burial There are taboos and traditions to abide by for the clothes that dead bodies are buried in If they are not followed closely, it ht form the Muathers They look like a person, but it is actually only a layer of cloth
“They will attack by wrapping the person Theyperson wear the clothes of a dead body and use it to control the living hu a new set of clothes but they sht be wearing a dead person’s clothes”
Master Bai looked around hi, and the streets were empty Only the two Sedan Kids trailed behind the’s baby and sped up He continued to explain, “The skull lantern is the scariest ghost from all the stories my father has told me
“No one kno they’re fores or places where high concentration of resenthts inside a village They rushed over, thinking it’s hu away froht to stop, and it did When they got close, it was actually a floating head, and it was biting a lantern with its teeth According to legend, Skull Lanterns are spirit trying to seek help, so they float about with the lantern”
After Master Bai finished the last story, he realized that neither Ol’ Wei nor Chen Ge replied “What’s wrong with the two of you? I still know quite a bit of this village folklore”
“Master Bai, you said the Mummy Wraps look just like normal people?” Ol’ Wei looked at the street behind them
“Yes, they look just like humans because the clothes will take on the shape of a human However, they have no face or hands; they are only clothes” Master Bai had a very bad feeling
