996 Work System, Reincarnation 2
was truly happy today. The past year had been spent in anxiety, worry, and apprehension almost constantly. Now, I felt a sense of tranquility as if time had stood still.I can set goals and start takin...The air outside didn't know when it became so low, we were sitting in the car, and suddenly a faint layer of white mist appeared on the car window glass.
I caught a glimpse of a hand out of the corner of my eye.
The fingers were very long, an unnatural length, with a seductive and flamboyant air. I felt as if they were about to pierce the car window glass.
Perhaps it can truly pierce through
The finger bones were clearly visible, the skin was ghastly white. At first glance, it looked like the finger was about to touch its own eyeball.
I had forgotten to gasp, my whole body was covered in goosebumps and I trembled violently. Mu Wanchen reacted instantly, raising his hand to make a seal, pointing his sword finger at me.
A talisman flew and stuck to the car window, bouncing off a small halo of light. The hand outside the window instantly retracted.
The edges of the paper rustled lightly, poking my cheek, and I suddenly yelped, "Ouch!"
Long Xiaogē has flipped over and sat up from the back, watching cautiously out the car window.
"What was that just now!" I stammered, feeling a surge of panic. "Where are the people Isn't this the checkpoint The border control Shouldn't we be in our country by now"
If it wasn't already parked, I panicked and floored it, driving straight through.
"Calm down." Mu Wanchen put his hand on my head.
I raised my hand to wipe the cold sweat from my forehead.
" ...I, I just felt like I was finally home... Just let my heart down... How, how is there this kind of horror again..." I almost cried, took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here," Mu Wanchen said calmly. "We're already at the border. I haven't felt any danger along the way. This place... must be strange."
He was saying something while getting ready to open the car door. I held onto his arm and said, "I'll go down with you. I'll walk from your side!"
Mù Wǎnchén was taken aback for a moment, didn't say a word, reached out and hugged me from the driver's seat, placing me directly on his lap, then used his other hand to open the car door.
The space in the car is so small, being this close and hugged tightly like that is...no, not dignified at all!
I saw Long Xiao give me a disdainful glance, >.<
Mulan just opened the car door, and a cold, piercing wind blew in. Dust swirled on the ground, and I cowered, covering my eyes and peeking through my fingers.
No abnormalities.
Outside, there was nothing but a cold and eerie silence.
The entire border inspection station was eerily silent, as still and quiet as a deep pool of water. The lights seemed to have solidified, casting the place in a deathly stillness.
"Mu, Mu Wanchen..." I don't know why, but my whole body was covered in goosebumps, shivering uncontrollably.
This chill was more frightening than the stench of a giant snake's venomous spirit.
It's as if ice crystals are forming in my very bones.
But there was nothing outside the car!
Mu Wanchen was a little confused, he shook his head and said: “There must be something here, be careful…”
As soon as he finished speaking, I saw a staff member in a uniform suddenly stand up at the checkpoint responsible for inspection and clearance.
Is anyone there
I immediately shouted in a hoarse voice, “Hello, please let us go!”
The man moved and reached out his hand from the small window, was he checking for identification
I immediately pulled out Lao Zhang's ID card from my pocket. This guy is a slippery character, and he had slipped some red bills into his ID to bribe the lower-level personnel checking at the checkpoint.
This kind of border inspection station job is physically demanding and the work environment is tough. It's common for low-level personnel to solicit bribes.
I hurried around the front of the car to hand over my ID, thinking that if this person wanted to detain us, I would jump in the car and run!
Just ram through this barrier, drive as far as I can, even if the traffic police catch me, I'm happy.
My mind was racing. As I approached the guard post, I suddenly saw a staff member "bam!" Their face smashed against the glass of the guard post!
That large face suddenly extended from the guardhouse window, causing me to jump in fright. Immediately, a terrifying and eerie smile appeared on his face!
Crimson lips, a deathly pale complexion, the workers suddenly changed expression, pressing against the glass and grinning at me!
"AAAAAAAAAAH!" I was so scared that I instinctively slapped a security guard in the head with my ID card.
Mù Wǎnchén pulled me back with one hand, and a shield-like glow flashed before my eyes.
"Tut tut tut... Such a fierce little girl..." A cold, mocking voice suddenly sounded.
Shaken to the core.
I'm so scared that hearing a word in Mandarin made me lose my strength instantly.
Mu Wanchen grabbed me with one hand, shielding me in his chest, and drew his sword with the other.
His sword seemed to have a spirit of its own.
When concealed, it is a short sword. But when unsheathed, it transforms into a three-foot long blade of frost and snow.
A sword qi slashed out, cutting through the iron railings of the watchtower.
"Hmph hmph… such domineering sword energy, worthy of being the disciple of the Emperor! Hmph hmph…"
Uh Master
I rubbed my bloodshot eyes and saw... no, a... white cloth
White cloth
"Can cloth... can cloth also become a spirit" I asked in a hushed voice.
"What cloth, look carefully." Mu Wanchen's voice came from above my head.
I really saw a white cloth, floating and drifting…
"Look up." Mu Wanchen reminded me.
I looked up, following the white cloth upward.
One meter, two meters, three meters...
It was probably about two stories high, a gaunt, pale face looking down at me.
The most striking feature on this face is a pair of crimson lips stretched into a wide, revealing grin. Then there are the slightly narrowed eyes, hinting at a mischievous and cunning nature.
Is that enormous figure a ghost
"Little girl~~ You're so fierce~~ Want to hit my face Hehehe..." The giant white ghost chuckled.
His voice and tone made it difficult to tell if he was good or bad, and I didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"...Ghosts and spirits, impermanence." Long Xiaoge whispered.
"Untimely My mind froze for a second, Black and White Impermanence"
They aren't like that in the Taoist temple!
So, so tall and mighty!
"The Ghost King is here... What does it mean" Mu Wanchen asked, frowning slightly.
"Hee hee hee... You're probably the first Wuzhi King throughout history to see us... Nice to meet you, Wuzhi King!" Bai Wu Chang giggled and floated about, his figure getting smaller and smaller until he was about two meters tall.
Two meters, well, he's about one meter eighty, and his hat must be 20 to 30 centimeters…
And he was still floating, I could only look up at him.
"I wouldn't dare to be called 'Master' by you. My master is revered as a god by you all, and I am just a junior disciple." Mu Wanchen slightly retracted his sword point and said to him.
"Hee hee hee... What's there to be afraid of The Witch Clan is not under the jurisdiction of the Underworld... That's right, even Your Majesty the Emperor has been implicated in the Witch Clan's karmic cause and sent us to guide you..." Bai Wu Chang said with a smirk.
Before he could finish his sentence, a roar from afar interrupted him.
"Are you kidding me! You just take all the credit for everything, while I'm stuck doing all the work! Do you even have any shame You've been playing these games for centuries and haven't gotten tired yet!"
Bai Wu Chang narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, slowly turned his head, covered his crimson lips with his sleeve, and said coldly: "La Ba, shut up..."well... Scents...I steadied my mind, trying not to judge others. Karma, karma... even if he wore ten diamond earrings, I would pretend not to see them."Miss Mu, I apologize for my previous disrespec...
