After a long time, Shui Yanling's condition improved slightly, and she returned to her original appearance, although her face was still pale.
Shui Yanling turned her head and glanced at me lying on the ground, then slowly walked towards me. After the ghost head was destroyed, the barrier that Shi Long had set up also disappeared.
And this carriage revealed its true form. It turned out to be the dining car located between the hard seats and sleeper berths. However, the carriage was now in a terrible state, with signs of a fight everywhere. In the middle of the carriage, there was a huge hole that looked as if it had been struck by lightning.
Halfway there, Shui Yanling suddenly stopped without turning around. She simply said quietly, "This matter has nothing to do with us. Fang Shuang and I don't want to attract attention, let alone be targeted by any strange forces. So you should know what to do!" Shi Long, who was lying on the ground, struggled to sit up after hearing Shui Yanling's words. He then thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I know what to do! No one else will know that you two were involved."
Shui Yanling nodded, and was about to come over to my side when she suddenly stopped, turned her head and looked at Shi Long with a puzzled expression.
Shi Long was still unable to recover and remained seated, too weak to even get up. When he saw Shui Yanling's gaze, a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.
Chapter Thirty-Eight: Revenge is Always Found
Shui Yanling slowly walked back, a malicious smile on her face. She had been a vengeful ghost for a thousand years and had learned many things in the process, such as revenge and paying back debts.
Thinking this, Shui Yanling couldn't help but rub her other fist with her palm before walking up to Shi Long.
"What...what are you going to do? No...don't do anything reckless!" Shi Long looked at the woman standing in front of him, at the faint smile on her face, and suddenly panicked. A sentence suddenly came to mind: "Women and petty men are the most difficult to deal with." "Ah!" Then Shi Long's wails could be heard throughout the entire carriage, extremely miserable. Of course, Mei Li and I were both unconscious, so we couldn't see this scene.
If I were to see the usually gentle and weak Shui Yanling transformed into such a violent woman, I would probably be quite frightened.
After a long while, Shui Yanling finally put away her fist, let out a deep breath, and felt extremely relieved. She slowly walked up to me, picked me up, and carried me back to our original carriage.
Shi Long, on the other hand, could only lie on the ground, bruised and swollen, like a dead dog, not moving an inch.
Looking out the train window, the sky outside wasn't as dark as it had been at the beginning, and the time until dawn was getting closer and closer.
Some distance from the train, a helicopter roared down from the sky at an incredible speed, far exceeding the train's speed. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before it caught up with the train.
When I woke up it was already noon. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Shui Yanling sitting next to me with a worried look on her face.
Her brows relaxed when she saw I was awake, and she asked me if I was hungry and if I wanted something to eat.
Seeing that Shui Yanling was only a little pale, perhaps because she was frightened by what happened last night, and that she was otherwise unharmed, I felt relieved.
He shook his head at Yanling, then got up and recalled what happened last night. From discovering the greasy man's death to the moment he saw lightning flashing across the sky, then a gust of air rushed over and he passed out.
I turned my head and glanced at the bed opposite. Shi Long and the woman named Mei Li were gone. Now, only Shui Yanling and I were left in the private room.
Could something have happened to them? What about that ghost? How is the ghost? I hurriedly went to ask Shui Yanling. Yanling smiled gently when she saw my anxious look, and then said, "Don't worry, they're all fine. That ghost was also eliminated by Shi Long. But later, a lot of people came, including police officers and some people who seemed to know Shi Long. Shi Long took the woman and left with them."
Hearing that Shi Long was safe and sound and that the ghost had been eliminated, I felt a little relieved. From my brief encounter with Shi Long, I felt that he was not a bad person, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to get involved in this matter.
I was a little disappointed that Shi Long left just like that. Judging from the strength he displayed, he was really powerful, and he knew a lot of things. I was thinking of asking him indirectly about the ghost hand on my body.
I also wanted to ask him some questions about the ghost. I always felt that the ghost was somewhat similar to the ghost hand on my body, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it.
After all, the ghost hand on my body is the most pressing issue right now. What if Stone Dragon could help me? Although I thought this way, I quickly let it go. You can't force things like this. The fewer people who know about the ghost hand on my body, the better. Maybe it would be a good thing for Stone Dragon too.
I thought the old beggar was already very strong, but he was still helpless against the ghost hand on my body. Although the stone dragon was strong, in my mind he was still a little bit inferior to the old beggar.
Thinking this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly. When I turned around, I saw Shui Yanling looking at me with a mournful expression.
After a long pause, he finally said, "Are you reluctant to let that woman leave like this?"
His words were laced with murderous intent, which made me shudder involuntarily, and a cold sweat instantly broke out on my back.
Under Shui Yanling's enigmatic gaze, I quickly clarified my relationship with the woman and said many kind words, such as "That woman is not even half as beautiful as you," and "I don't even know her name." Finally, I even swore an oath to the heavens and made an extremely sincere statement.
