Seemingly sensing that something was not right about the atmosphere, the driver laughed and said, "This tunnel can save a lot of traffic. Don't worry, I'll get out as soon as I step on the gas."
But soon, the driver stopped laughing.
They ran in the tunnel for a full five minutes. At first, there were occasional cars coming from the other side, but now, except for the lights on the top of the tunnel, there was only endless darkness.
The surrounding blackness is like thick ink, and if you look at it, your sight will be swallowed up.
"What...what's going on?" The driver's voice sounded panicked: "I've been running on this road for a long time. When did the tunnel become so long?"
Of course there is no problem with the tunnel, it’s the people on the car who have the problem.
"boom!"
There was a strange sound coming from the roof of the car, as if someone had slapped it hard with a hand.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"Fuck! What's the sound?" The driver's voice changed with fright. He glanced at the roof of the car and his hands holding the steering wheel began to tremble.
"Give up." There was a faint voice in Jiang Cheng's ear. He turned his head and saw Xu Yi's pale face.
Her beautiful eyebrows were knitted together, and you can imagine the pain she was suffering at this time, "Let me get off the car, or it won't let you go."
Jiang Cheng didn't speak, but his eyes had shifted to the car door. He knew that Xu Yi was right, as long as he threw her out, they would be safe.
After all... all the ghost wants this time is her.
Xu Yi's left arm hung down weakly. Only her right arm could move a little, but it was obvious that she could not even open the car door.
Jiang Cheng slowly stretched out his hand to the car door beside Xu Yi, but before he made a decision, Xu Yi's weak but urgent voice sounded again.
"Don't hesitate." Her teeth were chattering and her mind began to blur.
She leaned against Jiang Cheng's shoulder and closed her eyes, so she didn't notice the movements of the latter's hands. She still said to herself: "Don't waste time on me. I have no value anymore. If you keep me, I will only give to everyone." Brings danger."
The next second, Jiang Cheng felt the person on his shoulder shake his head in pain, and a weak but firm voice sounded: "It's not worth it." Xu Yi gasped, "It's even less... pointless."
Jiang Cheng had already grasped the inner handle of the car door and paused.
Worthless, unworthy, meaningless...
These ordinary words seemed to come alive and were engraved in his mind like lightning. At this moment, Jiang Cheng felt his heart twitch violently.
In his opinion, throwing away a worthless teammate is not a sinful thing. The teammate has been targeted by ghosts, and everyone will be in danger if she takes her with her.
What's more... she proposed this on her own initiative, and I didn't force her.
This person is about to die. There is no point in doing anything now. At most, it will only help her delay time. There is very little hope that she can survive.
But why...do you feel like this?
He was inexplicably afraid, staring at the car door as if he were looking at a wild beast, as if as long as he opened the door, he would be lost in the darkness outside.
In just a few seconds, his back was wet with cold sweat, and his rapid breathing even covered up the sound of the wind outside the window.
Feeling the weak breathing of the person on his shoulder, his hand trembled, and then he slowly retracted it. He also pulled Xu Yi's hand towards the car door and placed it on his knee.
"Hold on a little longer." Jiang Cheng held her with one hand, rested his chin on her forehead, and said softly, "We're almost there."
Being shorter, he tried to make Xu Yi lean as comfortably as possible. At the same time, the cold atmosphere spread in the car, and the invisible pressure began to shift towards him.
"Drive faster!" Jiang Cheng shouted to the driver who was distracted.
It seemed that his efforts had paid off. Xu Yi's face miraculously softened a little, and her lips gradually turned red. "Ahem..." She coughed violently, and there was a little tingling on the corners of her lips. Bloody foam, she opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was a side face.
Jiang Cheng was shivering from the cold, but he still didn't let go of Xu Yi's hand. He stared closely at the darkness ahead, with a faint light shining in his dark eyes.
"What are you looking at?" When he found out that she was awake, Jiang Cheng's expression immediately turned careless. He glanced at her sideways and pretended to be vicious and said, "Let me tell you, I don't save people in vain. I either pay money or have sex. I guess you don't have much money, so just use sex to compensate. I wonder how the life-saving grace can be worth a hundred and eighty times. I have robbed you more than 20 times while you were sleeping. I will save the rest. Wait, let’s talk about it after we get out.”
Xu Yi just woke up, with confusion written all over her face, but soon she realized that it was the man in front of her who was shivering with cold who helped her.
"Don't look at me with that look." Jiang Cheng opened his eyes wide, seemingly frightened, and then changed to a breathless tone and begged: "Can you please let me take it easy?"
"Thank you." Xu Yi said softly.
"Thank you, no need." Jiang Cheng grunted, "When I get out and I see you on a mission, just ask your colleagues to let me go."
"I'm very easy to recognize." Jiang Cheng said with a beaming expression, "I have two stage names. One is Silver Spear Young Man, which is used in girls' clubs, and the other is Tahitian Dandelion, which is only used in rich women's clubs. Please remember it. Just don’t forget it.”
To Jiang Cheng's surprise, Xu Yi seemed to really think about it for a while, then looked into his eyes and nodded, "Okay."
After being stunned for a moment, Jiang Cheng slowly retracted his hand, then lifted his collar up before the situation worsened, and tightened it as much as possible.
There was finally light at the entrance of the tunnel ahead, and Chu Jiu was so excited that he almost jumped up, "Sister Xu Yi, we are going out!"
The driver also started to slam on the accelerator, and the vehicle made a wild roar. It didn't sound like a taxi, but more like an off-road vehicle that had been suppressed for a long time.
Staring at the light not far away, Jiang Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the cold feeling is still there, it has weakened a lot. It seems that its ability can only trap them for so long at most.
"What's your name?" Xu Yi looked at him and asked seriously.
Jiang Cheng glanced sideways at her, "Hao Shuai."
"real name?"
"I swear on my parents." Jiang Cheng raised three fingers.
"Okay." Xu Yi smiled helplessly, "Then I'll call you Hao Shuai. Thank you for saving me." She paused, looked into Jiang Cheng's eyes and said, "You are a good person."
Glancing out the window, Xu Yi turned her head and continued: "I hope you can survive, and if possible, please help others survive."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng's expression immediately changed. The entrance to the tunnel was right in front of him, and there was a faint light in the car. With the light, he quickly looked at the rearview mirror.
The next second, even his breathing stopped. He saw that all the ghosts who were originally riding on Xu Yi had appeared, and there were only the whites of his eyes.
What's even more frightening is that the female ghost changed her position, stepped on Xu Yi's shoulders with her two feet, and was crawling towards him.
"Mr. Hao." Xu Yi opened the car door, and the howling wind immediately rushed in. The rope buckle binding the ponytail was torn to pieces, and the black hair was messy in the air.
"Please stay alive!"
The next second, the car broke through the darkness, leaving only Jiang Cheng's hand in the back row suspended in the air.
Under the sun, the car was filled with dust.
