C47

An hour had passed, but there was still no movement from the car. The car began to clamor again. Everyone was calling out to the train attendant. The noise was getting louder and more ear-piercing.

Just as the ruckus was about to break out, the radio in the car rang, "Dear passengers, please calm down. The train was running in an emergency and the staff members have already got off the car to fix it. Suddenly, an ear-piercing sound came from the broadcast.

Shortly after, the lights were all turned off and the entire carriage became dark. Screams and cries filled the air.

My heart felt as if it was struck by something, and I inexplicably panicked. Could it be that I met some evil spirit?

Wang Lanlan tightly held onto me. In the darkness, I could feel …

I looked out. The light in the tunnel was still on, and I could see the stone walls of the tunnel.

I leaned against the window and looked out at the front of the train. I couldn't see anything, so I had to give up.

I leaned back in my chair, thinking, when someone in the carriage screamed, "Ghost fire, ghost fire." His voice was filled with fear.

I looked out of the window and saw a few ghostly fires outside, pale blue and floating like ghosts, moving in a strange way, as if they had life, and when they came to our window, they froze there, and I had a strange feeling that they were looking at us, and the very thought froze me all over, how could I have such a feeling?

If there was a ghost fire, then there would be dead people. It seemed that the tunnel wouldn't be peaceful either.

Wang Lanlan was so scared that she was crying non-stop. I was in a trance, why do I feel like I know him?

Wang Lanlan fell into a deep sleep. I pulled her hand away from mine and quietly left the position.

Arriving at the junction of the two carriages, I concentrated on passing through the closed doors and windows and going outside. A chill came over me, and I folded my arms.

I got off the car and walked to the side of the tracks. I held onto the peach wood sword tightly as I carefully looked around.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew by my neck. I felt goosebumps appearing. Then, all the lights in the tunnel went out. In an instant, the entire tunnel was left with only darkness.

I looked at both sides and couldn't see any light. The tunnel seemed long enough, but it was still raining outside. I might as well stop in the tunnel and avoid the rain.

There was another scream, and I smiled. Luckily, there were so many people with me, so it wasn't that bad.

There was a rustling sound from the roof. I looked at the roof and couldn't see anything. My Yin Yang Eyes also didn't work. I was a little angry.

I heard the voice again, getting closer and closer to the top of my head.

I might as well close my eyes. When one of your organs is lost, the other will be enlarged and more sensitive. I carefully chose a direction.

"Crack! Crack!" There was a sound that made my scalp tingle, like a fingernail scraping across steel. I felt my whole body go numb, and I was most afraid of hearing that sound.

I flew up to the roof. Luckily, there was an emergency light on the roof, glowing a faint blue light, but I could vaguely see it.

On the roof of the car was a grotesquely ugly ghost, with a thin, bony face and wrinkled, dark brown skin. His eyes were sunken in and his nose was bulging out. He looked like a octopus in a sponge baby.

He was lying on the roof of the car, looking up at me with his head slightly raised, and I could feel the strange green light shining in his eyes.

I took out my peach wood sword and chopped at him. He nimbly dodged and climbed to the top of the stone wall.

Was this fellow a gecko? How could he climb on a rock with his bare hands?

I took out a rune from thin air and chanted it as I flew towards the evil ghost. The evil ghost froze for a split-second as I grabbed the opportunity to slash at him. He actually dodged it. I chopped off his right hand.

Then I felt the mountain sway. Luckily, there was no falling stones or anything like that in the tunnel.

I suddenly realized that this evil ghost was painted by a mountain ghost. It was said that a mountain ghost's appearance was gorgeous and could captivate a person's soul. Looks like the rumors were not believable.

I felt as if he were summoning something, and a moment later I heard rustling sounds coming from all directions, and then I felt a dark mass approaching me, cold and dark.

It was the aura of resentment. He never thought that so many vengeful spirits would gather in a single tunnel. It seemed that something big had happened here.

I concentrated, and suddenly a piece of news came into my mind, as if I remembered a few years ago, when I was still in junior high school, and reported that there had been heavy rains during the construction of a tunnel, mountain landslides, blocking the entrance to the tunnel, and that the rain had affected the rescue, and that there had been many landslides during that time, and that none of the twenty workers on the construction team had survived. I was still sad for a long time.

It seemed like this was the place, the souls of the dead were wandering around this place, slowly building up their resentment, adding on to that, they already died wrongfully, it just so happened to be a cloudy day today, so they triggered the Corpse Transformation, turning into evil spirits and wandering around the place where they died.

One Mountain Ghost is already difficult enough, I can't handle so many vengeful spirits.

Bai Jing said that he can absorb vengeful spirits and has his own array formation. As long as those evil spirits go in, they won't be able to come out, so I just have to put them all away, then I'll transform them one by one and lure them into the Underworld.

Thus, I took out a Spirit Gathering Bag from the Space. It was actually a Fortune Bag, and it looked like a beanbag. On it was embroidered an anti-lock incantation and array diagram, and it was said that the silk used for the embroidery was immersed in the River of Forgetfulness for forty-nine days.

I chanted and opened the Spirit Gathering Belt. All of the surrounding vengeful spirits were sucked in. Satisfied, I tightly tied the bag's opening and threw it back into the space.

There is still that mountain ghost left. My eyes flashed brilliantly as three talismans simultaneously flew out. After which, I viciously separated my fingers. Touch? On the sword blade, he shouted out, and the runes followed the peach wood sword and flew towards the mountain ghost.

When the sigil touched the Mountain Ghost's body, it immediately turned into a raging inferno. The Mountain Spirit was burnt to the point that it bared its teeth. I was very satisfied. This was the pure Samadhi True Fire that I had just cultivated.

The entire blade of the sword entered the Mountain Ghost's body. He let out a whimper before turning into a wisp of green smoke, dissipating onto my sword.

As the ghost disappeared into the tunnel, all the lights came on, but the interior was still dark, and I breathed a sigh of relief. It would have been terrible if the passengers had seen me outside.

I was back in the car, invisible, in an empty corner, when I heard footsteps.

"I told you to check the line. You broke the line. What's going on? It's making the passengers anxious." It was the voice of an elderly, middle-aged man. It belonged to the staff on the train.

I held my forehead. To my surprise, they mistakenly turned off the electricity. I thought I had met a ghost blowout.

When I returned to my seat, the interior of the carriage was still noisy. I wasn't worried about the sounds of the battle I'd just heard. The interior was so noisy right now, and even if I did hear it, everyone would only suspect that it was a ghost.

I cast Wang Lanlan's Incantation, she rubbed her eyes and woke up.
