than a gangster!She rested her elbow on the car, leaning close to the half-open window, and flashed me a smile that revealed a row of pearly white teeth —"Because, I'm the one who guides ghosts, you s...To move a corpse to a cemetery, what operation is this
Should we hang a "RIP" banner and hold a funeral to pay respects
Baffled, I honestly went to Changling Road.
The name of this road tells you it leads to the cemetery. This area is probably a newly built cemetery, with new roads and some humane-designed buildings on either side.
In the Chinese mindset, burial is meant to be on a mountaintop. At the foot of the mountain, there are two rows of shops lining the street. These businesses cater to funeral arrangements, offering banquets for mourning events, and car washing services.
I also saw our family's company sign, Archie probably opened a shop here too but doesn't have the energy to run it.
I was driving up the mountain, carefully observing the rearview mirror. Mu Wanchen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, glanced at me and said, “ … You’re a special advisor to high-level officials now, how come you’re still so timid”
"How much weight do I carry Even I don't know. What use are titles like 'special advisor' or 'head of the Shen family' when danger comes They won't save your life," I retorted with a sneer.
Mu Wanchen slightly hooked his lips: "You're surprisingly clear-headed."
He paused for a moment and said, "Women are often blinded by worldly desires, and many things remain unclear to them."
A whole bunch of question marks popped into my head. How could someone like him, who was as sturdy as a tree trunk and probably hadn't interacted with women other than Xiao Yinluo, talk about "women"
Let me know if you have any more text you'd like translated!
"Hey, what do you mean by that You wouldn't be behind Xiao Yinluo's back, getting involved with other women, would you" I eyed him warily.
Mu Wanchen glared at me. "Watch the road."
"Hmph, I doubt he dares to... However, besides Xiao Yinluo and myself, who else could the woman he's talking about be"
I stole a glance at him. Mu Wanchen's profile was still cold and hard in the moonlight. His gaze was silent and resolute. I couldn't see any signs of guilt on him.
He’s such a wooden block. Besides being a dutiful husband to Xiao Yin Luo every day, what else could he possibly do
At most, they are those temporary residents from their tribe who live outside the Dharma Gate. Without the obstruction of Mount Wuzhi and the Palace of the King, they can more conveniently fawn over Mu Wanchen.
These wildflowers and weeds probably wouldn't even catch Mu Wanchen's eye, nothing to worry about.
I was thinking to myself when, out of the blue, Mu Wanchen reached out and grabbed my steering wheel!
"Hey!"
I was startled and slammed on the brakes. With a screeching sound, the car came to a halt at a bend in the mountain road.
"W-what How... "I looked at the front of the car, the direction was right.
“That thing is still following us.” Mu Wanchen frowned.
"What is it" I swallowed hard.
"Just outside the entrance to the Corpse-Eater's Path, there was a strange person lurking. He used weird spells to conjure translucent demon insects that had hallucinogenic properties. After being shaken by Gu Ling, he fled." Mu Wanchen stated briefly.
It's strange, Old Chen also said that someone unusual came to see me, and Mu Wanchen also said that someone suspicious was lurking around me.
What have I done to make so many enemies
"You take the five ghosts and leave first, it's best to call the master over. I'll get out of the car and search along the mountain road. This time, I must catch him." Mu Wanchen said, then unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.
"Hey hey, I'm scared being alone..." I whispered.
I don't know if he heard or not.
I'm a little hesitant to summon Jiang Qiyun. He knows I'm moving corpses, but he hasn't shown up yet. Maybe he's visiting Yu Gui and You Nan. Every day there are small things that need doing, and I feel like I have to summon him for everything. I feel so useless.
And now, there's a powerful demon god from the Netherworld lurking around. I keep calling upon Jiang Qiyun… It seems like it's embarrassing for him.
Things like ghosts and spirits...they're just... indescribable. You don't really think they're scary in your everyday life, but once you're alone, in a quiet environment, it's...
"Little Empress~~~ Why aren't you continuing to walk"
A long head of hair hung from the roof of the car, dangling a shadowy greenish-gray face that grinned at me.
"Oh my god!!! Can you guys be normal for once!" I said, both amused and exasperated.
These five ghosts have been following my car, and one of them is really mischievous! Very mischievous!
"Hee hee hee... It's so fun to scare her," the ghost bragged to its companion.
"Don't be afraid, just watch out for her, she could strike you dead with a single thunderbolt."
She's so soft and gentle, she wouldn't hurt a fly.
"You may not be good at cutting people, but you might be better at cutting ghosts."
"Shut up, get out of here, her car's moving."
"Were these five little ghosts from Wuzhishan City a traveling troupe of comedians in life"
I pressed down on the accelerator and continued uphill, seeing Mu Wanchen's figure in the rearview mirror growing farther and farther away.
At least I have several "people" following me behind... No, several "ghosts"! I can't let these little ghosts see me as a joke.

On the halfway up the hill, there was a speed bump with guard rails for vehicles to slow down. In the middle watchtower, there was a dummy, which made people's scalp tingle.
...
The scanner scanned the license plate and automatically opened the gate. I drove my car into the central area of the cemetery.
This Qingzhuyuan cemetery is a newly built modern cemetery. Because of urban expansion, many graves and small cemeteries in other places have been relocated here.
Those who have been to cemeteries should know that these places are inexplicably cold and eerie.
In our country, the higher one's position in society, the more they tend to value traditional culture. Public cemeteries are privately inspected and selected by specialists who also consider modern urban planning and development when determining their location.
Here you can see traditional paper cutouts and paper horses, as well as flyers with WiFi passwords and signs that say "Please be quiet".
The area is too big. Chen Ruo sent me her location on her phone, saying it's in Area C. My car is all alone parked in front of the main building in Area C.
The so-called main building refers to the spirit hall in Area C.
Here, looking down the row, there are several identical triangular-roofed small halls, probably all mourning halls.
Chen Ru stood alone by the parking spot, wrapped in a thick cotton-padded jacket in the night wind, waiting for me.
Since there was no one here, I parked wherever I wanted. As soon as I got out of the car, the cold air hit me and gave me a shiver.
It's freezing, freezing... What's wrong with this C zone
To say that going to the cemetery is commonplace for me, but the atmosphere here is very ominous!
This girl, Chen Ruo, is younger than me. How can she be so nonchalant
I locked my car door and was just about to greet Chen Ruo in a low voice when a faint white figure behind her startled me!
Is it possessed!
"You...you..." I reached into my small handbag.
Chen froze, looking at my guarded expression, she was a little stunned. She stopped her steps, raised the cotton-padded jacket in her arms, and whispered, "Miss Mu Sister Xiaoqiao It's cold here, isn't it I brought you one of my cotton-padded jackets, just wear it..."
I was taken aback, she wasn't possessed
Then what was that white shadow behind her!female ghost looked like in her lifetime, perhaps she died from a broken neck bone.Behind the door panel of the hall, a swollen face appeared, with features squeezed together, becoming more and more p...
