Xiao Chang'an didn't know why Mu Wenxi had suddenly become so downcast: "What's wrong?"
Mu Wenxi shook his head: "It's okay. Where else do you want to go? I'll take you. What else do you want to eat? I'll take you there. Let's go to more places together. I want you to experience more of the world. You didn't get to eat these things before, and times are changing so fast now. You probably haven't experienced many things."
Xiao Chang'an: "Okay."
Whenever Mu Wenxi had free time, he would take Xiao Chang'an out to play and eat together. For several weeks in a row, except when Mu Wenxi didn't have classes, the two of them were always out. Xiao Chang'an gradually felt that Mu Wenxi was in a hurry to take him to do a lot of things.
Inside the Ferris wheel at the amusement park, Xiao Chang'an asked his question: "Why are you in such a hurry to take me to so many places?"
Mu Wenxi, who had been looking out the window, turned back and said, "Wouldn't it be better for you to experience what it's like to be human and see the beauty of this world?"
Xiao Chang'an: "Okay, I'm very happy, but I think we can take our time and play it later, there's no need to rush."
Mu Wenxi: "But I'm afraid that one day you'll leave like Xinyi, disappearing without leaving any happy memories. Won't you feel regretful?"
Hsiao Chang-an: "No."
Mu Wenxi pouted, a little annoyed, wondering if Xiao Chang'an thought she was being presumptuous: "Fine then, I won't bother with you anymore..."
Xiao Chang'an squatted down and looked into Mu Wenxi's eyes: "Don't worry, I won't leave, at least not while you're alive."
Mu Wenxi: "Really?"
Xiao Chang'an: "I've lived here for thousands of years, what's a few more decades?"
Mu Wenxi: "Oh, right."
Hsiao Chang-an: "So you don't need to be in such a hurry. We still have plenty of time to do what we want to do."
Mu Wenxi: "You found out."
Xiao Chang'an rubbed Mu Wenxi's head: "Yeah, thank you."
The two returned to school amidst their bickering, and their roommate Dong Lihua immediately greeted Mu Wenxi the moment she saw him.
Mu Wenxi: "What's wrong? Why do you seem to be in such a hurry?"
Dong Lihua: "It's extremely urgent, let's talk as we go."
Mu Wenxi turned around and glanced at Xiao Chang'an, gesturing for him to join them.
Dong Lihua: "I remember you told me before that you, Han Chao, Jiang Qi, and Yu Zhiyuan went to the haunted building, right? And because Han Chao looked for you, and because you have a jade pendant that makes you unafraid of ghosts, everyone was finally able to get out, right?"
Mu Wenxi: "More or less, what's wrong?"
Dong Lihua: "Do you still remember Shen Jiaqi, who lived a few dorm rooms away from us?"
Mu Wenxi: "I remember."
Dong Lihua: "Oh dear, she and her friends went to take pictures, but it turns out they got trapped in an abandoned amusement park."
Mu Wenxi: "How did you know?"
Dong Lihua: "One of her friends was late and let them go in first. When she got to the amusement park entrance, she couldn't contact the other two no matter what. She thought it was strange that she couldn't contact any of them. She quickly went back to school to ask, but she couldn't find them. She asked around and found out about you, but you stopped contacting her."
Mu Wenxi: "You should go to the police or an exorcist. What's the use of coming to me? I'm scared myself, and I'm not an exorcist."
Dong Lihua: "Because you had told me about haunted buildings and haunted houses before, I guess it was Han Chao or Jiang Qi, anyway, one of them who praised you a lot. Li Na heard about it and insisted on finding you. She won't listen to anything I say now. I thought something was wrong, so I quickly came to find you."
Mu Wenxi: "Then call the police."
Dong Lihua pulled Mu Wenxi to the school gate, where Li Na rushed over: "Are you Mu Wenxi? Please help me."
Mu Wenxi: "I think if you are concerned about your fate, you should find a professional master or call the police. I don't have any ability to help you."
Li Na: "Going to the police won't help with this. Besides, you've already saved Yu Zhiyuan, so please help them out. We'll give you a reward, okay?"
Mu Wenxi frowned upon hearing her words: "This isn't about money. My life is precious too. And how can you be so sure they encountered something supernatural rather than just getting lost?"
Li Na was somewhat anxious: "If they were lost, it's impossible for two people to be unable to contact each other. The main thing is that even if they are missing, it's not time to call the police yet, so it's useless."
Mu Wenxi didn't speak, so Li Na asked again, "How did you rescue Yu Zhiyuan and the others before?"
Mu Wenxi: "I didn't save them; we came out of this together."
Li Na was utterly devastated. She grabbed her hair, squatted down, and started crying.
Mu Wenxi and Dong Lihua were at a loss for what to do.
Mu Wenxi looked at Xiao Chang'an and mouthed, "Can I go?"
Xiao Chang'an nodded.
Mu Wenxi: "Stop crying, I'll go, okay?"
Li Na immediately scrambled to her feet: "Okay, just think of it as helping me find them. It would be best if we didn't encounter anything unclean."
Dong Lihua: "I'll also go and broaden my horizons with you."
Mu Wenxi: "What if there's danger? I won't be responsible."
Dong Lihua: "Okay, okay, okay."
The three of them quickly took a taxi to the abandoned amusement park in the middle of nowhere.
Driver: "Young ladies, are you sure you want to stop here? There's nobody here."
Li Na: "Yes, thank you, Master."
Mu Wenxi: "Master, could you leave your contact information? We'll pay for your travel expenses when we come out."
Driver: "Sure, it's not easy to get a taxi here. Call me when you come out."
Mu Wenxi: "Thank you, Master."
The driver waved and drove away.
The three of them turned around and stood at the entrance of the amusement park.
Li Na took a deep breath: "Wait a moment, let me make a call and see if I can get in touch with them again."
The call still didn't go through.
Li Na: "Then let's go in quickly."
Mu Wenxi: "How big is this amusement park? Where are we supposed to find them?"
Li Na shook her head: "I don't know. I just came here because Jiaqi said it had a great atmosphere. I don't know how she found this place."
Dong Lihua: "Why don't we go in and take a look?"
Mu Wenxi: "Okay."
There are cartoon animal statues at the entrance of the amusement park, and an iron gate separates the inside from the outside into two worlds.
There was a map of the amusement park on the information desk, covered with a thick layer of dust.
Li Na took the map, unfolded it, and pointed to one of the locations: "Let's go here first. Jiaqi said before that the place she most wanted to go was this movie theater."
Dong Lihua glanced at the general ending of the amusement park scene: "I also think we can focus on the indoor areas, while the outdoor areas are more obvious. If it's a ghost, don't they usually prefer dark places?"
