Chapter 90 Like a Ghost
After getting off the highway, the four cars drove one after another on the winding mountain road. As expected, Hei Xia Zi's car made a lot of noise all the way.
Zhang Qiling and Jie Laoyang were a mute and a stutterer respectively, so naturally they had nothing much to talk about. It was mainly Hei Xia Zi and Wu Xie bragging and singing little songs, chatting about everything from trivial matters to all sorts of things. Hei Xia Zi even told Wu Xie about his story of how he got rich with great interest.
Twelve little tricks for setting up a street stall, how to quickly determine a customer's family background, the myriad tricks of bargaining with middle-aged women at the vegetable market, how to sell someone something they don't need...
Wuxie listened with great interest and was amazed by Hei Xia Zi's various ideas.
To be honest, he really needs this knowledge!
When it comes to saving money and making money, he is willing to call Hei Xiazi the best...
The car was driving along the winding mountain road. When it turned a corner around the mountain, it suddenly started to drizzle.
Through the car window, Wuxie looked at the dark sky, the fine rain, and the misty fog in the forest on the mountainside, and thought the scenery was quite artistic.
But it became boring after watching for a long time. After watching for a few times, Wuxie quickly lost interest. When he looked away, he inadvertently glanced at the rearview mirror and suddenly found that there was no shadow of Xiaohua and the others' car in the rearview mirror. He quickly told others about it.
"Are we driving too fast? I didn't see Xiaohua and her friends' car in the rearview mirror, or did their car break down?
Brother Jie Jingan, please contact your master immediately. Blind man, please stop the car and wait for them."
Xie Jing'an was the guy Xie Yuchen arranged for in their car, and he was also one of Xie Yuchen's trusted confidants.
Hearing Wuxie's reminder, Hei Xia Zi glanced at the rearview mirror on the driver's side. Although nothing was clear in the rain and fog, he could still see things within a few dozen meters.
He looked left and right, but really couldn't see the shadows of the cars behind him. Hei Xiazi frowned, stepped on the brakes, and pulled over to the side of the road.
"What's going on? Master Hua'er isn't such a rude person. He wouldn't have informed us of what happened..."
Obviously, Hei Xia Zi also thought that the car behind him had a problem while driving and stopped halfway.
Xie Jing'an first took out his cell phone, ready to send a message to the owner to ask, but was surprised to find that the cell phone had no signal.
There’s no signal just after entering the mountains?
While lamenting in his heart that the signal base station was unreliable and that his family had indeed had foresight, Jie Jing'an turned on the radio hanging around his waist.
"You guys are now... sizzle, sizzle—"
Xie Yuchen on the other end of the radio had just said a few words when a crackling sound kept coming from him, a bit like an electrical appliance that had been flooded or had poor contact and was broken.
Before Jie Jing'an could figure out when he broke the communicator, there was a sudden sound of knocking on the glass from the driver's window, followed by a rough and anxious male voice.
"Hey brother, our car broke down on the road. Could you please give us a ride? This place is in the middle of nowhere. We waited for a long time before we saw your car."
When Hei Xia Zi turned around, he saw a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard, smiling at him ingratiatingly in the rain. There were two young men and one woman blocking the road in front of the car, as if to say, "If we can't get in the car, then you can't leave either."
Hei Xia Zi raised his eyebrows and showed a smile that seemed kind but was actually very unfriendly. He put his hand on the door handle and prepared to get out of the car to argue with them.
If you need help, why not call the police? Waiting here to stop the car of these tomb robbers, it's really rare to see such a thing.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong!
With Wuxie, the "homeless young master", around, he felt that these people were either a trap set by the old fox Wu Sansheng, or the old fox had been watching them and wanted to push the rats into the trap. He would first take a look at their composition.
But before he could open the door, Zhang Qiling's hand reached out from behind and grabbed his wrist tightly, preventing him from moving any further.
"Don't move."
Knowing that his old friend was kind-hearted and never did anything in vain, Hei Xiazi paused when he touched the door handle. The smile on his face became formal. He tilted his head slightly to maintain his smile while asking in a very low voice.
"What's going on...Mute, please explain clearly..."
Zhang Qiling stared at the man outside the window. Instead of answering Hei Xia Zi's words, he urged him directly.
"Drive, go first."
Out of trust in Zhang Qiling, Hei Xia Zi restarted the car without saying a word, but the car failed to start after three attempts. Now the others also felt something was wrong.
Wuxie, who was kind-hearted and had never experienced the dangers of the world or the harshness of society, originally thought that they had something to do on this trip and could not take these people with them.
It would be fine to open the door and give a raincoat and a few hot packs to show your humanistic care. Look at the young lady standing in front, she is cold in the rain, her face is as pale as a ghost...
Like a ghost...
Like a ghost...
Thinking of a certain unlucky word, and then thinking about where they are now...
At this scene, Wuxie shuddered suddenly and lowered his head quickly. Then he felt that it was not appropriate to lower his head, so he turned sideways and stared at Zhang Zhen, the auspicious sign on earth, Qi Ling.
He avoided her gaze, but the young lady outside did not let him go.
She had long noticed the young man who had been staring at her. She was indeed still as charming as before. The woman thought so and lowered her head with a strange smile.
She straightened her wet hair, walked to the passenger window on Wuxie's side, reached out and knocked on the window three times, and spoke softly with a pitiful expression on her face.
"Brother, please help us! Please, I'm just a recent college graduate. I really regret traveling. My car broke down in such a deserted place. It's really scary."
Wuxie thought about how the kind-hearted young man had told him to just leave and ignore the people outside, and he felt more and more that something was wrong. He stiffened his neck and didn't even dare to look back at the woman.
Zhang Qiling frowned and looked at the woman.
During the time in the Xisha underwater tomb, the Kun he met on the way helped him open his spiritual awareness. Later, Zhang Moyu taught him how to sense and distinguish different auras, spirits, and vitality.
The color of the light ball represents the nature of spirit and vitality, the degree of condensation represents strength, and the feeling it gives people can express the sense of belonging. The size of the light ball is linked to the volume of the creature.
In his perception, the six light balls in the car, bright or dark, represented the spirits behind the five of them and Hei Xia Zi respectively.
