Chapter 120 Is this the power of money?

Yun Shu frowned as she looked at the route back to the capital. "I can only find a place to stay here for the night. I'll buy a plane ticket back tomorrow."

But they found out that this place was too far from the capital, and the return ticket alone would cost three thousand yuan!

"Airfare is so expensive."

Yun Shu sighed, torn between buying a train ticket or a plane ticket. Although train tickets were cheaper, it would take more than thirty hours to get to the capital.

Yun Shu was standing at the exit of the cemetery, still struggling with the issue of buying tickets. Chu Xingnan came out and saw her, so he came over and asked her, "Why haven't you left yet? Go back and rest quickly. I'll handle the rest."

“My home is in Beijing, which is too far away. I’m thinking about how to get back.”

"Buy a plane ticket? My car broke down, so I can't take you. I'll ask you to buy me another one another day."

In fact, besides driving a sports car, Chu Xingnan could also travel to various parts of the world via the underworld passage, but that passage is for underworld officials and not for living people, so Yun Shu cannot use it.

Yun Shu rubbed her little face. "This place is too remote. Even if I want to take a plane, I have to take a car to the city first."

She was in the countryside of the county town, and it was late at night. There was no car to take her to a hotel in the county town, so she had to use her light-footed skills to get there.

However, there was no other way besides this method, as her cultivation level was not yet sufficient to support her flying on a sword.

If I could fly on a sword, that would be so convenient. Tonight, I could just whiz back to the capital.

"Oh right, I'm going to the county town too," Chu Xingnan suddenly said. "Let's go together."

What are you going to the county town for?

Yun Shu asked curiously.

"It's all because of that mother and daughter from the Hu family," Chu Xingnan said. "Hu Runnian has already been sent to the underworld to receive his judgment. Although he kept saying that he was a fake underworld official who tricked him into harming people, his crime is still unforgivable. That mother and daughter were his accomplices, so they should also be punished."

"But they are living people, and you are a messenger from the underworld, so it seems you can't just take them away directly."

Chu Xingnan flipped through a notebook in her hand. "They'll all die violent deaths in a few days. I'll go to the county town first and wait to capture their souls. Especially this old lady from the Hu family, besides harming people, she's committed many crimes. I'll send her to a special hell to be punished."

Yun Shu thought about the faces of the two people she had seen earlier, and realized they were indeed about to die.

"Okay, let's go to the county town together."

The two set off together, and having company made the journey less boring.

As they approached the county town, Yun Shu finally made up her mind: she would take the train back to the capital. Not only would it save money, but it would also allow her to skip two days of training.

She messaged An Zhonglian to ask for leave, saying that she was rescuing people in another city and it would take two days to get back by train. She would need to rest for a day after arriving home due to the long journey, so she needed to ask for a total of three days off.

An Zhonglian knew she was dealing with the wedding dress issue, but three days later, the finals were about to begin, and Yun Shu hadn't been shown on camera during training.

He could grant Yunshu leave, but he couldn't guarantee that Yunshu wouldn't have her salary docked. He suggested that Yunshu go directly to ask the big boss.

Yun Shu copied the same leave request script and forwarded it to Lu Shijing.

She added, "I went out to rescue people, I didn't intentionally skip the training, could you please not deduct my salary?"

Lu Shijing didn't answer that question. Instead, he asked her, "Where are you? Send me your location."

Yun Shu thought he didn't believe her, so she sent him the location of the small county town in Northwest China.

Lu Shijing was stunned for a long time after seeing it.

I never imagined she would travel to such a far place. Just taking a plane would take several hours, let alone taking a train back, which would take several days.

He asked, "Why don't you take a plane?"

Yun Shu honestly replied, "I have no money. All the money I earn has gone to pay off debts, and flying is too expensive."

Lu Shijing: [I've come to pick you up.]

Yun Shu: [Huh?]

When Yun Shu saw the message from Lu Shijing, she was stunned and had to read it several times to make sure she wasn't mistaken.

He came to pick her up?

How can he come pick her up? She lives in a small county in the Northwest, not in the capital.

Just as Yun Shu was about to ask, Lu Shijing sent another message, telling her to find a place to stay in the county town and wait for him to come, and not to wander around.

Yun Shu scratched her head and texted him, "Are you coming to buy me a plane ticket? Actually, you don't need to come; you can buy the ticket online."

Upon seeing Yun Shu's message, Lu Shijing's eyes showed a hint of helplessness: "No need to buy a plane ticket. It'll take about three or four hours to arrive. Just wait a moment."

Yun Shu: [Why? Why don't you need to buy a plane ticket? A plane ticket costs over three thousand!]

Lu Shijing: [Why should I buy a plane ticket when I paid for the plane myself?]

Yun Shu: [?]

Yun Shu stared wide-eyed at the chat interface. Is this what rich people in this world are like?!

Okay, you win!

Upon arriving in the county town, Yun Shu first found a hotel to rest and obediently waited for Lu Shijing to arrive.

She slept lightly for a while, and then received a call from Lu Shijing, who said he had arrived.

Yun Shu came down from the hotel with sleepy eyes and saw a tall figure standing at the entrance. He was wearing a long, dark black trench coat, and the cold morning wind had ruffled his hair. His handsome face had a touch of casual laziness.

Yun Shu came out, yawned, and asked him, "Why did you come so fast? I remember that after arriving at the airport in the city, I still had to drive to the county town."

"The helicopter can be parked in the suburbs."

Seeing that she was only wearing a shirt, Lu Shijing pondered for a moment, then took off his trench coat and draped it over Yun Shu's shoulders.

Let's go.

Lu Shijing naturally took her hand and led her towards the outskirts. The hotel was in the suburbs, and the aircraft parking area was just a short walk away.

Yun Shu had just woken up and was still in a daze. She was led by Lu Shijing the whole way and only came to her senses when she saw the helicopter in the suburbs.

Not only are there helicopters, but there are also professional pilots to help Lu Shijing fly the planes, so they can catch up on some sleep on their way back to the capital.

Back in the capital, the helicopter flew directly to Lu Shijing's house, because a helipad had been built on the roof of his villa.

"It's good to be rich."

Yun Shu glanced longingly at the helicopter parked on Lu Shijing's rooftop before coming downstairs. Lu Shijing had her eat breakfast before taking her home.

As she drove to the entrance of Yun Shu's residential complex, Yun Shu thought about asking for leave. "Do I still have to go to the training?"

Lu Shijing turned to look at her and saw that she was frowning and looked worried, so he knew that she didn't want to go.

"You've just come back from such a far place, you must be tired from the journey. You are allowed to rest at home for two days."

Yun Shu's eyes lit up. "The kind that doesn't deduct wages?"

"Um."

"Yay!"

Seeing her leave happily, Lu Shijing smiled slightly. He watched her figure disappear before driving away from the entrance of the residential area.

When Yun Shu returned home, she posted on Weibo, tagging those bloggers whose souls had been taken away, telling them to buy some protective items to dispel the lingering resentment in their bodies, otherwise their luck would be damaged, their health would deteriorate, and they would be more likely to encounter evil spirits.

However, one blogger didn't believe it and asked, "What soul-stealing? I have no recollection of it at all. I slept quite well last night and didn't have any nightmares. This wedding dress was a gift made by my fans. I don't believe my fans would harm me."

I remember this Yun Shu is a metaphysical streamer who sells paper offerings and amulets in her live streams. I think she's trying to attract viewers and get us to help her sell her amulets, right?
