The talisman instantly burned up, a golden light spread across the car, followed by… the ghostly figure of the woman in white revealed itself!
Her face was ashen without a shred of color, large areas of facial muscles rotted and oozed pus, the eyeball even laid suspended outside, and countless maggots squirmed around her straw-like messy hair…
Her tongue! Her tongue hung out over one meter long!
The horror was extreme!
At that moment, the shaved-head man could clearly see the woman in white’s ghostly appearance!
“Hehehe~~hello…I’ve been following you for quite some time…” The woman in white said to the shaved-head man in her husky, chilling voice.
That smile, weird and terrifying, belonged only to a ghost, not a human.
“Ah!!!!!!”
A short piercing scream was let out by the shaven-headed man, his face in an instant turned pale as a piece of tile.
All his hairs stood on end, his scalp swung between numbness and coldness.
He felt like sucked dry of vitality, no strength left in his body.
He was paralyzed.
Not just paralyzed, he broke out in a cold sweat, tears streamed down his face, and on top of that, he wet himself, his trousers were soaked in urine!
“Don’t worry, Brother Driver, there’s nothing to fear since I’m here. Also, Sister White, don’t scare our Brother Driver to death.” Huang Xiaolong had an affable smile, he even casually draped his arm around the woman in white, seeming quite chummy with her.
“You…you…you are a Taoist? Did…Did you see me when you got in the car?” The woman in white obviously feared Huang Xiaolong, she tried to escape, but after Huang Xiaolong hooked her shoulder, she couldn’t move a muscle, like a snake immobilized by seizing its vital part.
“A Taoist? I may know Taoist magic, but I wouldn’t say I am a Taoist.” Huang Xiaolong randomly replied, then said to the shaved-head man, “Hear me out, Brother Driver, let’s talk business. You pay me 3700 yuan, and I solve this for you. Of course, you can choose not to. To tell you the truth, Sister White has memorized your scent. From now on, wherever you go, Sister White will follow. Imagine this, Sister White watches you as you sleep, accompanying you into your dreams; Sister White counts stars with you when you walk at night; Sister White cheers for you from the bed while you’re making love with your wife… isn’t that nice? Plus, you won’t need an air conditioner anymore for Sister White’s chill would keep you cool all the time…”
“Right, Sister White?” Huang Xiaolong asked with a grin.
“Yes~~~I’ll stick to him!” The woman in white cooperated.
“NO! NO! Don’t follow me!” The shaven-headed man was shaking like a leaf, his voice trembling as he spoke. “Young man, I’m wrong, I’m sorry, I didn’t realize your importance…I beg of you…help me out…save my life, I’ll be your servant forever. I’m not a bad person, I did blackmail a few times driving unlicensed taxis, but I’ll never dare to again, never again…”
“Brother Driver, no need to exaggerate, I’m not that important, and as for the servant part, I don’t dare accept. Flat rate, 3700 yuan.” Huang Xiaolong stretched out his hand for the money, “So, are you paying, yes or no?”
“Yes! Yes!” The shaven-headed man handed over the money with trembling hands, he opened the car’s sun visor, a fanned stack of crumpled notes was hidden inside, he scooped out more money from under the cushion.
Unexpectedly, the guy had some really weird hiding spots for his money.
The shaved-head man handed over the money to Huang Xiaolong with both hands.
Huang Xiaolong collected the money calmly and smoothly.
The money ranged from one hundred yuan notes to fifties, tens, twenties, even ones, and fifties cents.
“Brother Driver, I counted clearly, but the sum is wrong, it’s only one thousand three hundred and fifty-two yuan and seventy cents.” Huang Xiaolong looked at the shaven-headed man helplessly. “Brother, we’re far from the total.”
“Don’t worry, young man… let… let me gather some more…” The shaven-headed man then frantically searched himself again, finally found two hundred more yuan, and handed it over to Huang Xiaolong. “Young man, this is all I got…”
“Well, that’s still not enough… my principle is to never reduce a single cent when doing business…” Huang Xiaolong looked at the shaven-headed man somewhat indecisive.
The shaven-headed man burst into tears, “Young man, I really have no money left. How about… I give you this car?”
Under no circumstance, would the shaven-headed man ever dare to drive or keep that car.
What a jinx!
This is just a haunted car, a hot potato!
“Oh well.” Huang Xiaolong smirked, “The car does seem easy to attract ghosts. Fine, let’s settle for that.”
Hearing Huang Xiaolong say this, the buzzcut man seemed to have a load off his mind. “Bro, um…I’ll leave first, you…you handle the rest, okay?”
“Sure! Go ahead, big bro. I’ll clean up here. Remember, don’t do anything evil in the future, or else, ghosts will come for you.” Huang Xiaolong advised solemnly.
“I won’t dare! I won’t dare anymore! If I do anything wrong again, I’ll be a damn…” The buzzcut man hurriedly opened the car door, running away as if his life depended on it.
“Wow! My first business deal, I’ve made quite a big fortune! Big success on my first business day!” Huang Xiaolong exclaimed excitedly with his eyes fixed on a bundle of cash in his hand, “More than a thousand yuan! Hahaha!”
More than a thousand yuan, for Huang Xiaolong who just came from the countryside, also counted as a substantial sum.
And that’s not all, the key is, Huang Xiaolong also ended up with a car!
“Now I’m part of the car-owning class too!” Huang Xiaolong couldn’t close his mouth from laughing. “They say that city life is full of deceptive tricks, but the changes in the countryside are also deep like a sea!”
“Bro… You… What are you going to do with me…” The lady ghost in white clothes asked weakly.
Huang Xiaolong exuded a kind of aura that it dreaded.
“Hmm.” After hiding the money close to him, Huang Xiaolong asked, “White Lady, why didn’t you report to the Underworld but instead linger in the human world? Do you know that this is wrong? If you run into any monk or Taoist, they will shatter your soul, and you will never find salvation.”
“I… I missed my time to report to the Underworld… It’s not on purpose… Bro, I’ve never harmed anyone” The lady ghost hurriedly protested.
“Hmm, I know you’ve never harmed anyone. And though you hanged yourself, you didn’t die unjustly, you wanted to die. Is that why you committed suicide by hanging?” Huang Xiaolong smiled, “Here’s what I’ll do, I’ll give you two choices: first, I obliterate your soul with an exorcism charm; second, I give you one chance to report to the Underworld.”
“I choose the second!” The white lady ghost didn’t even think twice and blurted out. She paused. “But wait, Bro, I’ve missed my opportunity. The gate of the Underworld isn’t open to me anymore.”
“That’s simple.” Huang Xiaolong nonchalantly said. “Come on, let’s get out of the car.”
Huang Xiaolong got out of the car with the white lady ghost.
By then, it was almost dusk, and with the white lady ghost holding up her umbrella, she was not afraid of sunlight.
“Bro, are you playing with me? The age of dharma decline is here, all the gods have disappeared. How… how possibly could you send me to the underworld?” The white lady ghost looked fearful, “You’re not trying to obliterate my soul, are you?”
At this moment, Huang Xiaolong’s face became slightly serious as he whispered, “Unseal!”
Boom~~~~~~~~~~
Suddenly, an eerie aura emanated from Huang Xiaolong. In the windless area, his hair spiked while the surrounding trees rustled, with countless leaves fluttering as if a multitude of devils were applauding!
Humans and ghosts perceive things differently. If a human saw Huang Xiaolong now, there would be no noticeable change.
But Huang Xiaolong appeared differently in the eyes of a ghost!
The white lady ghost saw Huang Xiaolong wearing a battle helmet, clad in lead armor, belted at the waist, in leather boots, cloaked in black, the cape stretching to the sky, with streams of hellish magma flowing on it.
“Ah! Sir Ghost Envoy! You…you are… Ghost… Sir Ghost Envoy!”
The white lady ghost screamed in horror. Then, like a mouse seeing a cat, she fell to her knees trembling.
The look on Huang Xiaolong’s face turned slightly stern as he chanted, “Open the ghost gate, living beings, avoid!”
Above the void, black air currents churned like boiling water. An awe-inspiring ancient city in black emerged. A large sign hung on the city gate, with the words “Yumen Underworld Ghost Gate” written in gold.
Squeak~~~~
The city gate slowly opened, a gust of cold wind sweeping out, carrying with it countless mournful ghostly wails.
A path, black as an abyss, extended from inside the city gate to the front of the white lady ghost.
Huang Xiaolong took out a piece of paper and handed it to the white lady ghost. “This is the path to the underworld. Take this guide and report to the Underworld. You haven’t done any harm, so I have reopened the Underworld for you. Go now.”
Taking the guide paper from Huang Xiaolong, the white lady ghost stepped onto the path to the underworld. But she quickly turned around, knelt back down to Huang Xiaolong, and kowtowed three times. “Thank you, Sir Ghost Envoy, thank you, Sir Ghost Envoy~~~~”
