CHAPTER 219: CHAPTER 192: RESCUING THE BUS’S HAUNTING GHOSTS

In the crowd, the only person who was previously crying and howling to get off the bus, the male college student, was now exceptionally calm, looking thoughtfully at Mu Yunchu’s back.

Within mere seconds, the talisman was formed, and Mu Yunchu waved it forward, causing the golden spell in the air to expand several times and tightly attach to the bus. As soon as it touched the bus, a gale arose inside, the wind wailing, causing the ghosts behind almost to scatter all over.

The gale lasted for a full minute or perhaps even longer, long enough for them to feel like a lifetime had passed.

Finally, after a burst of extremely dazzling light at the center, the speeding bus finally came to a stop.

The driver who was driving earlier had disappeared without anyone knowing when.

As the light faded, it was followed by the automatic opening of the rear door of the bus, making creaking noises.

All the ghosts gasped in shock.

They were all stunned by the scene.

Since they got on this bus, they never saw the rear door open.

Does this mean... they can finally leave?

Even though they all thought this, not a single one dared to try first.

What if... stepping down leads to another abyss?

Even for lonely souls and ghosts that can’t reincarnate, at least being conscious is better than being completely scattered, right?

So they hesitated for a long time, none daring to go down.

No one suggested anyone else go first either.

Li Shang had one hundred percent trust in Mu Yunchu, both as a person and for her abilities.

Since she assured it, Li Shang didn’t hesitate at all and raised her foot to go down.

But she was met with obstruction.

Someone grabbed her arm.

Turning back to look, she found it was the old man with intestines hanging out, his hair white.

However, by now he had returned to normal appearance, dressed in a white elder shirt, looking scholarly, much like the distinguished professors seen in universities.

"Don’t go, girl."

He tightly held Li Shang’s arm.

At this time stopping her undoubtedly showed that he had recognized her identity as a ghost and couldn’t bear to see her risk herself first.

Li Shang was startled.

She caught the expressions of the other ghosts from the corner of her eye.

Everyone was frowned, slightly shaking their heads when she looked over.

It wasn’t that they didn’t trust Mu Yunchu; they just didn’t dare to gamble.

While the two were in a stalemate, a shadow quickly got off the bus.

"Hey?"

There wasn’t enough time to stop him.

The male college student jumped off the bus as if escaping.

Then shouted loudly, "We’re saved!"

"Finally saved!"

Outside the bus was white mist, they couldn’t see the scene beneath, only judging the situation from the sound after disembarking.

But judging from the other’s reaction, they could tell Mu Yunchu’s method was effective.

Li Shang also recovered from the shock earlier, politely bowing to the old man.

This was her second sincere bow since entering the world.

The first was to Mu Yunchu.

"Thank you for the warning."

"But my boss is really impressive, so you don’t have to worry at all."

Then turned around and got off the bus.

Seeing her disembark, the remaining ghosts looked at each other and all followed.

Mu Yunchu stayed on the bus for a specific purpose, waiting for them all to leave.

She turned to look at the bus driver’s seat, then without hesitation, pulled out the bus’s key and put it in her pocket.

Then, as if she had done nothing, she got off the bus last.

After she got off, the bus vanished from the spot.

The ghosts didn’t care, assuming it dispersed along with the so-called evil spirits.

And upon realizing their regained freedom, the ghosts trapped for so long looked up at the sky and around. For some, the buildings were familiar scenes, but for the few among them, these were buildings they had never seen before.

The confusion and fear in their eyes gradually faded, revealing a relieved expression.

Gratefully, they looked at Mu Yunchu, all expressing thanks.

She said, "If you want to reincarnate, I can help."

But the ghosts who recently said ’rather reincarnate than be trapped here’ all showed hesitant looks.

They didn’t want to reincarnate directly yet.

"I... I died rather suddenly, because of an accident." One ghost spoke bravely, "After dying, I didn’t know what happened, I muddled onto this bus."

So since dying, she hadn’t looked back home once.

"Can I go home and have a look first?"

Obviously, most of the other ghosts thought the same.

"Yes, yes, on the day something happened to me, my family called saying my wife was giving birth." One dark-skinned, young-looking male ghost echoed, "But I was on duty the previous night and had to go on assignment the next day, so I didn’t have the chance to go home and see."

Unexpectedly, he died in that fire.

His last mission when he was alive.

"I want to go back and see..."

Now, if they didn’t know Mu Yunchu’s identity, they’d be too foolish.

It’s known that Daoists catch ghosts, it’s natural.

Dispersing the evil spirits of the bus was merely saving them along the way.

But under these circumstances, could she let them go?

The male ghost spoke nervously, trying to appear normal.

But seeing Mu Yunchu’s face, which was considered ’cold’, their hearts sank.

Mu Yunchu yawned, "I’m too tired today."

Looking around, fortunately, it wasn’t far from home.

"Let’s go, we’re going home."

She turned and left, leaving the ghosts bewildered.

Li Shang ran to catch up, turning back seeing they were still standing there, feeling they were really dim-witted. Unable to bear it, she gestured, indicating they should do what they wanted to.

On the way back, Mu Yunchu suddenly asked, "By the way, did you see that student after you got off?"

Li Shang disembarked right after him, logically, she should have seen where he went.

But Li Shang’s expression showed some confusion.

"I can’t quite remember."

Because she didn’t pay much attention to that little brat at all.

When getting off, there wasn’t time to specifically watch him.

"But... I vaguely remember not seeing him after getting off the bus."

"I guess he was scared away."

After all, as a normal person, seeing such a scene at night might never be forgotten in a lifetime.

Not sure why Mu Yunchu suddenly focused on him.

Seeing Mu Yunchu not speaking further, Li Shang asked proactively, "What’s wrong?"

"Is there something suspicious about him?"
