CHAPTER 218: CHAPTER 191: IMPOSSIBLE TO EVER GET OFF THIS BUS AGAIN...

"Ghost! Ghost!"

The man shouted, looking back at Mu Yunchu, and pointed ahead of himself, "There’s a ghost, there’s a ghost here!"

Mu Yunchu subtly raised an eyebrow, her gaze falling on him with an air of unfathomable meaning, paying no attention to his excessive fright and near-fainting state.

The group of ghosts seemed to know which among the people present would be the most satisfying to scare.

Out of the four people, they decisively targeted the male college student.

Especially the old lady from earlier, who seemed particularly eager to regain her lost dignity by scaring him.

Opening her bloody mouth wide, "I’ll eat you, I want to eat you!"

"Get off! Let me off, I want to get off!"

But these words were merely for show.

Everyone knew full well that in this situation, it’s unlikely that they would stop the bus.

"Hehehe, want to get off?"

"You won’t be able to get off... for the rest of your life..."

...

As the group of ghosts surrounded the college student for quite a while, only scaring him without laying a finger on him, Mu Yunchu spoke.

"Had enough fun?"

The ghosts were all taken aback.

Including Li Shang beside her, ready to devour these ghosts at her command.

Mu Yunchu’s gaze swept over those fierce ghostly faces one by one, "You never intended to do anything to him."

If not, enough time had passed for this college student to die over eight hundred times.

After all that ruckus, no real harm was done.

They were merely pretending to scare him.

The ghosts glanced at each other, feeling bored for the first time after being seen through.

Then they all straightened up, each revealing their appearance at the time of death.

Some had their intestines spilling onto the ground, some had half their heads severed, while others turned into flattened meat patties...

No matter how they changed, Mu Yunchu’s expression remained unchanged.

A huge sense of defeat swept over them.

They suddenly understood how the old lady felt earlier.

"It can’t be," Li Shang also understood, showing extreme disappointment as he retracted the looming eerie aura, "You guys are staying on this bus in the middle of the night just to scare people?"

"Can’t you have a bit more ambition!?"

Like trying to harm someone.

Even if they had done something to the college student earlier, he would have had a reason to act.

Unaware of her identity, some people felt resentful after hearing this.

"Who says all ghosts are meant to harm people after death?" The old lady beside them pouted, looking unhappy, "We’ve never harmed a single living person."

At most, they would scare people for fun.

Otherwise, staying here every day was far too dull.

"Besides, even if we harmed someone, we’d still be trapped here, seeing each other every day. How awkward is that?"

"Every day?" Li Shang didn’t fully grasp their meaning. "Why every day."

An older man with his intestines hanging out responded, "Because once someone boards this bus, they absolutely can’t get off again."

So there’s no need for them to kill anyone; over time, the living naturally run out of energy.

"Huh?"

"Can’t get off!?"

The male college student finally managed to compose himself from the terror of a bus full of ghosts.

At least they wouldn’t harm him, so let it be a bit scary.

After all, he thought once the bus stopped, they’d each go their separate ways and never see each other again in this lifetime.

Give it a few days, and once he completely forgets about this, he’d still be a good man.

But now he’s being told he can’t get off the bus?

Unbelieving, he stood up from his seat, grabbed the rear door handle with both hands, and shook it vigorously.

Though the bus seemed on the verge of falling apart, no matter how much force he used, he couldn’t damage the door in the slightest.

"Don’t just stand there watching, come help me, I refuse to believe I can’t open it!"

The others didn’t move, only Ye Zhixia stepped forward to meet his gaze; however, unlike him, before he could touch the door, an invisible barrier bounced him back.

Looking at his hands in confusion, though uninjured, experiencing such a situation for the first time.

The ghosts already on the bus were not surprised at all by this scene.

They had experienced it countless times as well.

Thus, they had long accepted reality.

Only the male college student was unwilling to accept everything he was experiencing, crying and begging for mercy, vowing never to sneak off to an internet cafe again without his family’s permission.

Everyone: "..."

The old lady from before, though furious at this person, couldn’t help but think of her grandson whenever she saw him, so she consoled him kindly, "Don’t cry, at least there’s one piece of good news here."

Hearing this, the male college student turned back to her excitedly, "What good news?"

"According to our experience, the people who die on this bus generally don’t suffer much," the old lady said.

Meaning, a perfectly healthy living person would unknowingly die.

Even the body is nowhere to be found, leaving only a soul behind.

Male college student: "..."

Couldn’t figure out where the good news was in that.

Wasn’t death still inevitable?

"Is there a way not to die?"

His question was met with a shared silence.

The old man shook his head, "If we knew, we wouldn’t have been trapped here all this time either."

Unable to reincarnate at all.

They had truly felt the hardships of being a ’lonely soul’.

Speaking of this, the ghosts’ faces all showed regret and loneliness.

Here, there’s no sense of time, being trapped on the bus for so long, they couldn’t quite remember days.

"So, I suggest you accept this reality sooner." The old man glanced over the young faces present and shook his head again, resignedly.

"Not necessarily," Mu Yunchu said calmly, "You are trapped here because the bus has gathered too much Yin Sha."

In other words, if the Yin Sha is eliminated, all problems would be resolved.

This wasn’t a difficult task for Mu Yunchu.

Yet the ghosts showed no signs of happiness.

"But how can the Yin Sha be broken?"

Mu Yunchu answered with action, stepping forward a few steps.

She walked to the front of the bus, suddenly stopping in her tracks, raising her hand to draw a talisman in the air under surprised gazes.

Leaving in haste, she didn’t bring the talisman paper and could only resort to this method.

Wherever her fingers traced, golden light flickered in mid-air, dazzlingly bright.

All the ghosts sensed danger and instinctively retreated to the back of the compartment.

Even Li Shang slightly withdrew his neck.
