The Host in Quick Transmigration Always Wants to Break Her Character
Chapter 168 My Roommate is Having a Secret (12)
"Hey, how can this girl be so heartless? xxx University? You two must be alumni, right? It's so late at night, it's hard for a young girl to wait for a bus, what's wrong with sharing a ride?"
The driver immediately became dissatisfied, as he could have earned some extra money on the side.
Lin Jingyi's expression turned cold upon hearing this.
She didn't care what was blocking the car; she just couldn't stand the driver's moral blackmail against her.
"We're not taking a carpooling trip, so be careful you might earn this money but not live to spend it."
Drivers who have to work late at night are already resentful, and now they're being told they're not living to spend money, so how can they be happy?
He ignored the passengers who were trying to stop the car, and turned to Lin Jingyi with an angry expression: "Little girl, what's wrong with you? Are you cursing me?"
Lin Jingyi grinned, revealing his perfect eight teeth: "How could that be? Don't you want to look outside the car and see what's that?"
It is completely harmless to humans and animals.
Seeing that she was just a young girl, the driver felt embarrassed to stay angry and followed Lin Jingyi's gaze to look out the window.
The moment the driver looked out the window, Lin Jingyi took out a talisman from his spatial storage and threw it through the car window at the female ghost blocking the car.
When the female ghost who was stopping the car saw Lin Jingyi take out a talisman, she sensed the power contained in the talisman and instinctively dodged to the side.
Unfortunately, the talisman seemed to have eyes, following the female ghost's every turn.
"what……"
As the talisman touched the female ghost, a shrill scream rang out.
From the driver's perspective, the little girl who stopped the car seemed to have seen a ghost as she tried to dodge a piece of yellow paper, but she couldn't. After being touched by the yellow paper, she changed her appearance.
The blue dress was instantly torn to shreds, and the dark red bloodstains on the hem looked eerie in the night.
His arm hung limply as if dislocated, a deep black ligature mark ran down his neck, his head was tilted to the side unconsciously, and dark red blood trickled from the corner of his mouth…
Seeing this, the driver was taken aback.
With trembling hands, I released the handbrake and started the car.
"Little...little...auntie, have you seen...that...that...that ghost?"
As the driver started the car, he asked Lin Jingyi and the other person behind him.
Lin Jingyi gently comforted the frightened Li Lian, and after hearing the driver's words, he replied in a relaxed tone, "I saw her." Thinking of the driver's previous behavior, he continued, "Uncle, weren't you going to give her a ride? Why did you drive off?"
The driver froze, a host of terrifying thoughts surfacing in his mind.
Judging from how relaxed those two girls look... could they be ghosts too...?
Thinking of this, the driver became uneasy.
Without replying to Lin Jingyi, she stopped the car and took out the jade Buddha she was wearing from her neck. It was a talisman she had obtained from a temple.
"Uncle, why did you park your car? Did someone stop you again?"
Seeing that the driver had stopped the car, Lin Jingyi gently patted the driver's shoulder from behind.
"Ugh!" The driver was startled by Lin Jingyi.
He held the jade Buddha in his hands, making a prayer-like gesture, and kept chanting, "Amitabha... the compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva... Amitabha... Laozi, may your decree be swiftly fulfilled..."
"Uncle, we are human!" Seeing the driver's reaction, Lin Jingyi realized that the driver also thought of them as ghosts, and she found it somewhat amusing.
"I struck the female ghost that was blocking the car with a talisman, which is why you were able to see through its disguise. Otherwise, you would have definitely let it get on the car."
Upon hearing this, the driver opened his eyes wide, narrowed them into slits, and slowly turned to look at Lin Jingyi.
Lin Jingyi took out another talisman and waved it in front of the driver.
"So that was a talisman you just threw away!" The driver suddenly understood when he realized he hadn't seen the yellow paper clearly and then looked at the talisman Lin Jingyi was holding.
I felt a little more relaxed and wiped away non-existent sweat from my forehead.
"Where did you get the talisman, young lady?" The driver was relieved and wanted to go home now, but he remembered that he hadn't finished his fare yet, so he had no choice but to start the car and try to start a conversation with Lin Jingyi.
Thinking that this was the first time he had encountered such a situation while driving for many years, he wanted to inquire about and ask for a powerful talisman for protection.
Lin Jingyi folded the talisman in his hand into a triangle and handed it to the driver.
"I got this from Chongyuan Temple, here you go." The female ghost had Nie Juntao's aura on her, and Lin Jingyi guessed that the female ghost was acting on Nie Juntao's orders. Not wanting to implicate innocent people, he handed a talisman to the driver.
The driver took the talisman from Lin Jingyi, his face full of gratitude. "Thank you, thank you, young lady."
As the car drove along, the two soon arrived at the campus.
Upon entering the school gate, the two individuals were required to register at the gate before being allowed entry, as they had returned late.
The school gate is about three kilometers away from the dormitory, and the two of them had to walk back to the dormitory in the middle of the night.
There were few pedestrians on the road, and Li Lian stayed close to Lin Jingyi, not daring to let go.
"I don't know why, but the campus looks particularly eerie today." Li Lian looked at the deserted road with some unease.
"There are fewer people around than during the day," Lin Jingyi said calmly.
The two walked to a road built along the foot of the mountain and saw a familiar female ghost standing in the middle of the road ahead.
Dark red blood dripped from the blue dress onto the ground; the female ghost's hair was disheveled, and blood oozed from the corner of her mouth.
But at this moment its body was not standing upright, but rather somewhat twisted.
Lin Jingyi felt that it must have been the talisman he had thrown that caused it to become twisted like this.
“Cheng Xue…”
Li Lian gripped Lin Jingyi tightly, feeling a dull ache in her lower abdomen again.
Lin Jingyi shielded Li Lian behind him, saying, "Stand behind me and hold on tight." He then turned to the female ghost in front of him and said, "Tell Nie Juntao not to make a move on Li Lian."
"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business!" The female ghost's voice was hoarse and shrill.
Lin Jingyi remained calm: "You're already dead, do you want to die again?"
"Hand over the Ghost Queen!"
"Impossible." With that, Lin Jingyi took out the peach wood sword he had prepared a few days ago from his spatial storage, channeled his spiritual power, and stabbed it at the female ghost.
The female ghost stretched out her dislocated arm and reached out to grab Lin Jingyi and the other person.
Lin Jingyi used his spiritual power to leap and cut off the female ghost's long arm, which fell to the ground.
The female ghost seemed oblivious. Her severed arm, as if possessing a mind of its own, took flight and flew towards Li Lian.
Seeing this, Lin Jingyi took out two talismans and struck the female ghost's two severed arms.
The female ghost screamed, and her severed arm fell to the ground again, remaining motionless for a moment.
Li Lian was so frightened by this scene that she fell to the ground.
Lin Jingyi disregarded Li Lian and thrust his sword at the female ghost once more.
The female ghost dodged left and right, but whenever she touched Lin Jingyi, she would be repelled by the merit on Lin Jingyi's body. The female ghost had no way to deal with Lin Jingyi.
Finally, the female ghost was pierced through the heart by Lin Jingyi's sword, turning into a wisp of black smoke and disappearing from this world.
"Cheng Xue, save me..."
Just as Lin Jingyi was about to sheathe his sword, he heard Li Lian's cries for help behind him.
