After smoking a cigarette, the driver got in the car. He couldn't find a reason for the car to break down, so he refueled the car as usual. The driver didn't refuel the car, leaving only enough gas for a one-way trip. There was basically no gas left once they reached the abandoned village.
Abandoned village? Haunted? Lin Yi looked at the brochure in his hand, thinking that this was most likely the resort's way of attracting tourists. Lin Yi couldn't say that he didn't believe in ghosts, but at least Lin Yi hadn't seen one yet. Even when he was exploring the tomb, he didn't see any so-called ghosts.
Of course, it wasn't as if these things didn't exist. Lin Yi had read in some ancient texts that when a practitioner trained to an unimaginable level, they'd be able to cultivate a primordial spirit. The primordial spirit could leave the body, and even after the physical body died, it could still survive.
However, this was different from ghosts. This was a great power of the practitioner, and there was a fundamental difference from ordinary ghosts.
The car started slowly. Lin Yi's car, whether it was intentional or not, became the last car in the entire team. After refueling, it followed the team in front of it down the hill.
The mountain road was very rugged. It wasn't a regular mountain road, but the resort's own training path. It wasn't open to the public, so there weren't even any street lights. One could only rely on the car's searchlight to see the road clearly. As for the two sides of the road, there was dense forest. If it was a coward, it would be especially creepy.
Lin Yi wasn't afraid of this kind of mountain night at all. When he trained at West Star Mountain, it was scarier than this, and Wulonhaote Mountain Range wasn't any better, so Lin Yi didn't care.
Han Jingjing, on the other hand, didn't seem to care about what was going on around herself- she'd been playing with her tablet the whole time, not even bothering to look out the window. Lin Yi was speechless- this girl was way too carefree.
Xinyan, on the other hand, was obviously nervous. She didn't look out the window. Unlike Han Jingjing, Han Jingjing didn't have time to look. She didn't think that the ghosts outside the window were as fun as refining pills. Xinyan, on the other hand, was a little scared.
"What ghosts? It's just a rumor, a way for the hotel to make money. "Zhaolong couldn't help but speak up after seeing Xinyan's fear." What the hell? We are medical students. How can we be afraid of ghosts? It was just a trick to trick children. I dare to laugh at ghosts in front of their faces in the cemetery, hahahaha! "
Xinyan frowned at Zhaolong's words. Even if it was the hotel's way of making money, there was no need to say it in the car, was there? There was a chauffeur in the car. How could he be happy when he heard that?
As expected, the driver of the exploration car felt sorry for the people in the car, but after hearing Zhaolong's arrogant words, he felt a bit guilty. That trace of guilt in his heart suddenly vanished! Isn't this a scam? Didn't he not believe it? I'll let you guys have a look.
"You can't say that there is no soul," Lin Yi said, "You can't say that everything that can't be explained by science isn't science. It can't be explained now, but it might be explained in the future. Didn't you think you saw a ghost when you saw a car a few hundred years ago? "
What Lin Yi didn't say was that cultivation and pill-making were impossible in the eyes of normal people. It was just that there was a chauffeur in the car, so he didn't make it that clear.
"Hey, Lin Yi, what do you mean by that?" Zhaolong curled his lips. "I think you're scared. If you're scared, get off the car now. We're going to the abandoned village. You don't have to go. "
Lin Yi didn't bother with Zhaolong anymore. He turned his head and ignored him.
Zhaolong thought that he was better than Lin Yi in terms of theoretical knowledge. He was overjoyed, thinking that he would regain his heroic image in Xinyan's heart! He was beaten up by the robbers and Su Lengzi, and then bullied by the turtle. Why would he be afraid of ghosts?
From Zhaolong's point of view. He'd act bolder and more fearless, and Xinyan would think that he wasn't that useless after all.
The car slowly drove into the abandoned village. The huge arch at the entrance shone with a sad light under the moonlight, and Xinyan subconsciously shrunk back. Zhaolong saw this and couldn't help but say, "It's just a broken arch. It looks like a soccer goal in the daytime. It's not that big of a deal."
But after entering the village, the car Lin Yi was in changed its direction, going in a different direction from the rest of the cars. It went into a small road at the fork in the village …
"Why isn't it going the same way as the cars in front?" Lin Yi noticed the problem and asked.
"Oh, every car has its own itinerary. There'd be no point in exploring if they were all gathered together, and we'd lose the fun of exploring the village." The driver had already thought of an excuse beforehand, and so he explained it when Lin Yi asked.
"Is that so?" Lin Yi frowned. Lin Yi didn't see the car in front, but at least the two cars in front were going the same route, one in front and one behind. They didn't split up, so Lin Yi doubted the chauffeur's words.
"I say, Lin Yi, are you scared? Just say it if you're scared, there's no need to find excuses! "Zhaolong heard Lin Yi's words, and felt that Lin Yi was getting more and more scared! Lin Yi was an Earth class mid phase peak, and he didn't even flinch when facing the robbers and the turtle, but that didn't mean he didn't have a weakness!
Fear of ghosts had nothing to do with strength level. Many people would maintain a respectful heart in front of the unknown. If Lin Yi was especially sensitive to things like ghosts, then it was reasonable for him to be afraid.
Lin Yi wanted to ask a few more questions, but since Zhaolong had already said so, Lin Yi didn't bother. They were within the range of the resort, so there shouldn't be any big problems. He just felt that there was something wrong with the route the car was taking, so he asked.
But then again, even if there was a problem with the route, Lin Yi didn't care. So what if there was a problem? The chauffeur wanted to rob them? That was simply courting death.
After the car entered the fork, the road became a lot more bumpy. The car may have been modified, but it was still difficult to walk on this kind of road.
"Why is this road so hard?" Lin Yi was even more confused. If every car had a different route, then Lin Yi could force himself to believe it, but to say that this road was this hard, Lin Yi didn't believe it! (To be continued …)
