Mysterious Resurgence: Starting with the Strange Bus

Chapter 5 Bus stalls

"Get ready, the next stop is the mail delivery location that the Ghost Post Office asked us to go to. This mail delivery mission is very strange, it's a haunted place, everyone be careful."

suddenly.

He Qin, who was sitting in the middle of the carriage on the right side near the rear door, suddenly spoke up, reminding the other four people who were participating in this mail delivery mission with her.

Hear the words.

Among the five, one of the men looked away from the electronic screen on the bus and muttered to himself, "Hopefully everything goes smoothly and no ghosts will get off with us at the next stop."

The red lights on the electronic screen clearly recorded the number of 'real passengers' inside the vehicle at that moment.

Seven vengeful ghosts—getting off the bus with them is no laughing matter.

Even if all five of them are ghost tamers, and even He Qin, who is in charge, has already controlled two fierce ghosts, they probably still can't withstand it.

They might all perish there. Even if they manage to escape the vengeful ghost by sheer luck, they will pay a heavy price, and they themselves may not be far from the ghost's resurgence.

Not to mention the other potential dangers that might arise when delivering the message later.

This time, He Qin and the others didn't deliberately lower their voices, and Li Hui heard them clearly, knowing that they were preparing to get off at the next stop.

But this didn't concern him much, since he wasn't a messenger. So Li Hui didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, he was happy that the five people getting off the bus would reduce the number of ghosts in the bus by one.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The ghost bus continued to travel at a constant speed and did not pull into the station again for a long time.

Two hours later.

"Hmm? The environment has changed."

Li Hui looked out the window. The scene outside was very different from before. Although the sky was still dark, the land on both sides of the road was no longer wasteland, but had turned into fields of wheat planted with rice.

As far as the eye can see, there is nothing but golden rice paddies, stretching as far as the eye can see. There are also many scarecrows standing in the rice fields, one every few meters.

Li Hui wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt like the scarecrows in the rice paddies were watching them, their gazes following the eerie bus as it moved forward.

"The scarecrow mentioned in the original work, but never actually appearing?"

In such a supernatural place, Li Hui knew that those scarecrows were certainly not ordinary; each scarecrow possessed supernatural powers.

"Hey, wait!"

Suddenly, Li Hui noticed that the road in front of the supernatural bus was now filled with scarecrows. There were at least twenty of them, lined up in two rows, blocking the road. They were clearly trying to stop the supernatural bus.

"No way?"

"A supernatural car stop?"

Li Hui was clearly not the only one to notice this; several people in the seats on the right side of the aisle also had drastic changes in expression.

"I heard someone at the post office say that this haunted bus will stall if it encounters a ghost blocking the way, and all passengers will have to get off, or they will surely die," He Qin said with a gloomy expression.

"Damn it, there are seven vengeful ghosts on the bus right now. Getting off at the same spot as them, and with countless scarecrows outside, is this any different from courting death?"

The scarecrows seemed determined to stop the supernatural bus. Taking advantage of the lull, about a dozen more scarecrows emerged from the rice paddies on both sides of the road and blocked the highway.

The other scarecrows in the paddy field also sprang into action, taking stiff steps as they surrounded the area. There were many of them, covering all directions.

Li Hui wasn't sure exactly how many scarecrows were in the nearby rice paddies, but he estimated there were at least several hundred.

"It's about to hit!"

The people in the middle of the carriage, including Li Hui, had their hearts in their throats, their eyes fixed on the road ahead, silently praying that the supernatural bus would continue moving forward after crashing through the scarecrows.

If the bus were to stall in such a strange and terrifying place, almost none of them would have a chance of survival.

"Bang~"

With a loud crash, the bus struck and sent the thirty-odd golden scarecrows that had been blocking the road flying, right before Li Hui and the others' eyes.

However, the ghost bus stopped right there, and the engine only made a few roars before going completely silent.

At the same time, both the front and rear doors opened, and a cold wind blew in from outside, causing the temperature inside the car to drop several degrees instantly.

"It's over." Upon seeing this, Li Hui's face turned deathly pale, and his brain went completely blank.

The intense fear left him completely bewildered. In this situation, as an ordinary person, he had no idea what he should do to survive this desperate situation.

However, before Li Hui could think further...

The wailing ghost sitting in the front of the vehicle slowly stood up and got off. After it got off, the number of passengers recorded on the electronic screen instantly decreased by one.

The ghost who appeared to be a middle-aged woman, who had also been sitting in the front row, got off the bus next. After she got off, the number became 5.

Then, in order, got off the bus the passenger whose body was so swollen from being soaked in water that it was impossible to tell his gender, the charred man, and the little boy next to Li Hui...

The final number of words on the electronic screen became 2.

Of the remaining two vengeful ghosts, the bus itself counts as one, and Li Hui guesses that the last one is one of the five messengers.

"Sister Qin, what should we do now? Should we get off the bus?" Seeing that the ghosts on the bus were getting off one by one, one of the messengers couldn't help but ask.

"Down!"

He Qin said with a gloomy face, "I don't know if we will be killed by the evil spirits after we get off the bus, but we will definitely die if we don't get off. Besides, we are not going to fight the evil spirits. We just need to find a way to hold on until the bus is restored."

撑？
Are you kidding me? What are you going to use to support this?

The others looked extremely grim, but there was nothing they could do but get off the bus through the back door under He Qin's instructions.

Before getting off the bus, He Qin glanced at Li Hui, who was sitting in the last row of the carriage in a daze, a hint of confusion flashing across her face, as if wondering why he hadn't gotten off yet.

“There really was a vengeful ghost that infiltrated their group of five.”

What He Qin and the others didn't know was that after they got off the bus, Li Hui noticed that the number of passengers displayed on the electronic screen had changed to 1.

This means that one of the five people who just got off the bus is a vengeful ghost!

The most terrifying thing was that the moment He Qin and the other four got out of the car, eerie and sinister crying sounds rang out from outside the vehicle.

Among the group of vengeful ghosts who got off the bus, the Grave-Crying Ghost's killing pattern seemed to be triggered first, and it immediately began to take action.

"What should I do? Whether I get off the train or not, I seem to be going to die anyway. Those messengers are at least ghost riders, but I'm just an ordinary person..."

After his brain recovered from its malfunction, it began to function rapidly, trying to find a glimmer of hope in the desperate situation. But no matter how he thought about it, Li Hui felt that what he was facing was a dead end, a situation where death was inevitable.

Unless he can travel back in time...

Just then, the lights at the front of the bus suddenly went out, and then the lights in the aisle inside the bus also quickly went out.

A wave of darkness suddenly began to spread rapidly from the front of the carriage to the back.

"Damn it, we have to get off the bus."

Seeing this, Li Hui gritted his teeth and decided to leave the eerie bus that was about to completely shut down.

Instead of getting out of the car through the door, he opened the side window and jumped out.

Just as Li Hui jumped out of the car, a strange red light emanated from his pocket, and the whole world seemed to freeze.

The scarecrows that surrounded them, the eerie crying... all the ghosts who got off the carriage and the messengers were frozen in place at that moment.
