After coming out of Lelu's house, I hailed a taxi directly on the roadside.
When the driver heard that I was going so far into the wilderness in the middle of the night, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
His hands were on the steering wheel and didn't move.
"What's wrong, driver?"
I wonder.
"Brother, you are putting me in a bit of a dilemma. Who would run to such a remote place in the middle of the night? Seeing as you are young and strong, you are probably trying to make money or kill someone, and just give me to me when you get there... Click!"
He put his palms under his neck and made a gesture.
I burst into laughter.
"Master driver, this is too imaginable for you. How about you change your career to write novels? If you are worried, you can call the Ping Police Station and report it."
More than ten years ago, if a taxi picked up a long-distance or long-distance trip, it could be reported to the police station.
Of course, it is possible now, but as society is prosperous and stable, almost no one does it anymore. And the taxi industry has long since declined...
The taxi driver felt a little relieved when he heard what I said - after all, who is a real gangster who would take the initiative to ask the driver to report?
"But little brother, even if you are not a bad person, it is really too far to drive there."
"I'll give you two hundred more."
"Brother is generous, but..."
"Add five hundred!"
"Okay, brother! Sit tight. I am an experienced driver and my driving skills are superb."
Buzz!
The roar of the accelerator sounded, and the taxi had already sped forward.
I:"……"
At the foot of the mountain where the abandoned reservoir is located, the taxi stopped.
But the driver suddenly said, can you give me one hundred more? I couldn't get any customers back, so I lost too much gas money.
I'm a little unhappy.
Just give him the fare from the meter plus the five hundred yuan agreed upon before.
"Here, five hundred more as promised. No more!"
Unexpectedly, the driver got excited.
I guess they were chatting all the way just now, and they knew that I was a college student studying at a prestigious university. I seemed to be gentle and well-mannered, and I was definitely not a vicious person.
He rolled up his sleeves and sneered.
"What's wrong, young man? I advise you not to be disrespectful and take care of yourself."
oh?
I sneered and suddenly lowered my voice. A high-pitched laugh of "hey hey hey".
"Stupid living person, do you really think that I am the same as you?"
As I said that, I secretly used a blinding technique on my body from the neck down.
So, looking at it from the taxi driver’s perspective, I only had one head floating in the air! Staring at him with a cold smile.
"Ghost!!!"
The taxi driver was scared to death on the spot, how could he care about asking for more money? Step on the accelerator and go faster than a ghost.
I laughed.
It feels like a childhood prank.
"You are so greedy that you deserve to be frightened!"
At this time, a deep middle-aged voice sounded behind me.
"Young man, don't bully others just because you know a little magic. If you use magic on ordinary people casually, you might suffer some backlash."
oh?
I turned around and saw a middle-aged man in casual clothes standing behind him.
Under the gaze of my spiritual sense, there is a strong black ghost energy exuding - this is much more powerful than Hu Jiao before. She belongs to the best among [Fierce Ghosts] and is very close to the [Fierce Ghost] level.
I pretended to be surprised.
"Awesome! Are you a fierce ghost? You don't want to harm me, do you?"
The middle-aged man was very satisfied when he saw that I was scared.
"It's not like I'm going to kill you. I'm just giving you a little punishment to let this little guy know that you can't just rely on knowing a little magic... Ouch! What are you doing?"
Before he could finish his words, I punched him to the ground.
Then he stepped on his chest and smashed several [Evil Suppression Talisman] down on his head and face, causing him to scream and scream. Then I stretched out my hand and made a throwing motion, and the middle-aged male ghost was lifted into the air more than ten feet above the ground.
It was like being pulled by an invisible rope, hanging above my head like a kite.
"you you you……"
I deadpanned.
"What am I? If you want to show off, you have to be prepared to be slapped in the face. You are so sneaky. Seeing that you don't have any viciousness, I didn't kill you on the spot. You just have fun secretly. Bar!"
"Looking at the strong ghost aura on your body, with a cold and moist feeling, you must be a water ghost, right? There are no rivers or lakes nearby, just the reservoir halfway up the mountain. You must be a water ghost there? Just lead the way. Spare me found."
The middle-aged male ghost looked downcast, like an eggplant beaten by frost.
"You are so young, why are you so strong? This is unreasonable!"
"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way. Also, tell me your identity and background honestly. We'll see how we deal with you later."
The middle-aged male ghost immediately became frightened.
"Master, please don't beat me to pieces. My wife and children are still waiting for me. I came out this time just because there was a silly girl who left without saying goodbye. I was afraid that she would be kidnapped by evil cultivators, so I came out to see her. look."
oh?
As soon as I heard this, I thought of that "love brain" female ghost Hu Jiao.
However, in Hu Jiao's explanation, there was no mention of this middle-aged male ghost who was stronger than her?
I suddenly reacted.
"Wait! You have a wife and children who are also in the reservoir? Are you the original reservoir owner who committed suicide by jumping into the water a few years ago?"
"Oh? The master also knows about this. Yes, it's our family."
I feel strange.
"What do you mean? Are you really voluntary?"
When I first listened to Lucky's story, I subconsciously thought that he might have been possessed by an evil spirit or some evil spirit was looking for a substitute... I didn't expect that the person involved said it was voluntary?
That would be strange!
Seeing my confused expression, the middle-aged male ghost said cautiously.
"Master, if I tell you the reason, can you let me go?"
"If the reason you mentioned is useful for the information I came to investigate this reservoir this time, it's not impossible to consider it."
I deliberately look inscrutable.
In fact, when I felt that this middle-aged male ghost was not as vicious as Hu Jiao, I had already decided that I would not do anything to him.
The middle-aged male ghost gritted his teeth.
"Actually, it's because back then, I accidentally discovered a treasure under the contracted reservoir!"
oh?
I'm even more curious.
After discovering a treasure under the reservoir, are you going to commit suicide with your wife and children? What’s the point!
"What baby is it?" I asked.
The middle-aged male ghost answered quickly.
"Actually, I can't tell clearly. But from the appearance, it should be a stone tablet. Or to be precise, I think it is a damaged corner or a small part of a large stone tablet. Because I can vaguely see that there are some The weird inscriptions look like tadpoles or talismans drawn by Taoist priests. In short, they are quite mysterious."
Broken stone tablet?
There are also tadpole texts and charms on it!
I was suddenly surprised and thought to myself.
"It seems like... something extraordinary."
