I remembered that I had once read in the space of the Psychic Jade a copy of the 'Book of Changes of the Ancient Era'. It recorded many strange and bizarre events from ancient times until now, and it might contain records of puppeteers.

I concentrated, took out the book from the air, and started flipping through it beside Bai Jing.

"Puppeteer, a person who practices puppet techniques. With a puppet as a guide and Yin as the support, one can manipulate the mind, change the mind, and use their nature for their own use. It won't stop until one side dies." I read a few words about puppeteers.

"When the puppet technique was created, the creator harbored resentment in his heart, and his heart was unrighteous. When this art is obscene, it was created by defying the will of the heavens, and it is naturally shamed by the heavens, the person who cultivates it is equivalent to sacrificing himself to the devil, and needs to endure the pain of having his bones corroded and his heart burned. Furthermore, although the person who cultivates it can live forever, all things in the world are born in accordance to the will of the heavens, nothing can be eternal." Bai Jing's eyes darkened.

"If so, why was it created?" I was suddenly filled with curiosity towards this founder. Just how much resentment did he have to come up with such a sinister cultivation method?

"In the end, he's still a person who has made a mistake. He's not worth being remembered again." Bai Jing's expression was a little unnatural. I didn't pursue the matter any further. After all, I still despised the matter of tearing open a person's scar.

"What about that person afterwards? Is he still alive? Didn't they say that they wouldn't die of old age?"

"He … his body, the Deathgod, was destroyed. He didn't leave anything behind. He transformed into a wisp of azure smoke that dissipated into the heavens and earth."

"That tragic? Who killed him?" Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to create such a powerful technique. It's just that my original intention was wrong, if I could guide him, he might be able to achieve something big. What a pity.

"I killed him." Bai Jing's voice was so cold that I couldn't help but shiver. I couldn't afford to offend him.

"Good killing, for the sake of the people." I gave Bai Jing an appreciative look.

Bai Jing looked at me and smiled. He didn't say anything.

The next morning, I was awakened by a phone call.

The fellow townsman who was coming home with me also finished his final exam and urged me to go back to pack up and go home.

Bai Jing returned to the Underworld early in the morning. He promised to come find me after dealing with the matters of the Underworld. I made three promises to not appear in front of my family, so I didn't want to scare them.

When we got back to the dormitory, most of the students had already gone home. The corridor was cold and unspeakably eerie. Coupled with the fact that our dorm was shady, even a hot summer's day would make us feel extremely cold.

I dragged a suitcase along with me to find Wang Lanlan. This Wang Lanlan is my hometown, her body is a little round, but she has a cheerful personality and is loyal to others. I really like to get along with her.

Arriving at the dormitory building, she was already waiting there, happily making a ruckus while waving at me. Right now, it's winter and the cold wind is bone-chilling. She was wearing a thick cotton dress, looking like a cute little ball from afar.

I looked at her large and small luggage, then at my simple small suitcase. "Are you going home or moving? Why do you have so many things?"

"You don't understand. I'm fully equipped, have changed clothes, and also have the New Year products that I want to bring home. There are also some food that we eat on the way." Wang Lanlan excitedly opened her big backpack and showed it to me.

It was filled with snacks, biscuits, chips, candy, and cola. It was a huge bag.

I smiled and patted her on the shoulder. " Are you done eating? We only have a car ride of five hours and your sleep will be over soon. With this much food, we will once again take up space. "

"There was an accident along the way. I was just taking precautions." Wang Lanlan said with a face full of pride.

"Can we hope for something better? Besides, the train is so safe, what can happen to it?" I reached for one of her bags and helped her carry it.

We took a taxi to the train station. There was a sea of people everywhere, but luckily I had already picked up the tickets when Wise sent Su Ye and the others yesterday.

In the waiting room I always felt uneasy.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly and the car drove on steadily for two hours. The only regret was that it began to rain as soon as we entered the station, and that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, which was a rare occurrence this time of year.

I don't like this kind of rainy weather very much.

The car passed through one tunnel after another. It was pitch black.

Suddenly, the car shook violently and we both leaned forward involuntarily. My head knocked against the seat in front of me, causing me to grin in pain.

There was a hubbub, and people called to the conductor. The conductor hurried over to explain. It was said that something in front of them had blocked the rollers of the train in the tunnel, and the train had been forced to stop.

Because it was in the tunnel, and it was dark outside the window, and I was sitting by the window, and I looked out, and there was only the faint light, and nothing to see, and I had to give up.

Wang Lanlan nervously pulled at me, "Nothing will happen, right?"

"Let's see if you dare to spout nonsense in the future." So many people. What are you afraid of? " I patted the back of her hand to comfort her. I found that my peace of mind was becoming increasingly calm.

At the beginning, the passengers didn't have much to do as they continued doing their own things. However, after about an hour, the car was still not moving at all. Some of them were no longer able to move. Sounds of discussion rose one after another.

I couldn't sleep because of the ruckus, but I was also a little confused. This doesn't make sense.

He checked his phone and indeed there was no signal. That would be difficult. The car would definitely be late, but how could he contact his home?

After a while, people began to move about one after another. As the carriages conversed, a middle-aged man came to our carriage and spoke to others. He was still quite far away from us, but I could clearly hear their conversation.

"I'm telling you, there's something wrong with the door. I just heard a few flight attendants talking. There's nothing ahead, but the car just can't drive." There was a hint of fear on the man's face.

"How is this possible? Did the car break down?" The other man's tone was full of doubt.

"Who knows? This place is so dark that I can't see anything."

"Let's wait a little longer."

The two of them gradually quieted down. I closed my eyes in meditation. How could that be? The unease in my heart surged up again. Ever since I started to deal with ghosts and gods, I felt that everything that happened was abnormal.
