Siheyuan: Hang Jia Dongxu, smash Banggeng to death!

"Bang--!!!"

The car window shattered instantly, sending countless shards flying into the car.

Several unfortunate passengers screamed, covering their faces with their hands, blood seeping from between their fingers.

"ah--!!!"

"Help!!!"

"He's in! He's in!"

Screams filled the car as more than a dozen people scurried around like headless flies.

Some people squeezed into the aisle, some crawled under the seats, and some even tried to jump out of the window, but when they saw the dark shadows outside, they were so frightened that they shrank back.

Lin Feng gripped the driver's arm tightly, his eyes wide with fear.

"Driver, faster! Find a way to shake the evil spirit off!"

Old Wu's forehead was covered in sweat, which trickled down his eyebrows and into his eyes, stinging painfully.

But he didn't bother wiping it off; his hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, and his eyes were fixed on the road ahead.

Throw it away?

How do you shake it?

This is a passenger bus, not a race car.

This is already the limit; any faster and it will overturn!

But just then, a sharp turn appeared ahead.

It was a nearly 90-degree bend, with a mountain wall on one side and a cliff on the other.

During the day, Lao Wu has to slow down when driving this road, let alone in a life-threatening situation like this.

but……

Old Wu gritted his teeth, a resolute glint in his eyes.

"Hold on tight!!!"

He jerked the steering wheel sharply and slammed on the brakes at the same time.

"squeak--!!!"

The tires screeched, leaving four long black tracks on the dirt road.

The entire bus tilted violently, with the left wheels almost off the ground, and the passengers inside were thrown into a heap like rolling gourds.

The scenery outside the window was spinning rapidly.

Mountain walls, cliffs, sky, dirt roads...

Then, everyone heard a muffled thud.

"Bang!"

Immediately afterwards, the bus jolted violently, as if it had run over something.

But Lao Wu didn't care about any of that. He held the steering wheel firmly and struggled on the verge of losing control for three seconds.

The bus finally came to a stop.

The front of the car was aligned with the straight road ahead, and all four wheels were back on the ground.

Aftermath.

There was a three-second silence inside the car.

Then, one passenger was the first to react, rushing to the back window to look out. The dirt road was empty, with only a cloud of dust rising.

The dark figure clinging to the car window disappeared.

"The evil spirit... the evil spirit was thrown away?"

The passenger screamed, his voice filled with incredulous elation, "He's gone! He's disappeared!!"

The car instantly erupted in excitement.

"Really?"

"Let me see! Let me see!"

Several people rushed to the back window.

There was indeed nothing on the dirt road, only the moonlight shining on the winding mountain road and the gradually dissipating dust.

"We're saved!!!"

"That's great! That's great!!"

"God help us! God help us!"

Aunt Li slumped into her seat, tears welling up in her eyes. She grabbed Li Tiezhu's arm, laughing and crying at the same time.

"Honey! We survived! We survived!!"

Li Tiezhu's eyes also reddened. He nodded vigorously, unable to speak, and simply held his wife tightly in his arms.

Lin Feng leaned back in the driver's seat, panting heavily.

My legs were still shaking, my hands were still shaking, my whole body was shaking, but the corners of my mouth were already uncontrollably turning upwards.

survived.

They really survived.

He turned to Old Wu, gave him a thumbs up, and said, "Driver, your skills... are amazing! Incredible!"

Old Wu wiped the sweat from his face and let out a long sigh of relief.

That move was entirely instinctive, and thinking about it now makes my legs feel weak.

"No, no..."

He waved his hand, speaking modestly, but a hint of pride was clearly on his lips. "I've been driving for over ten years, so I have some skills."

A chorus of praise erupted inside the car.

"The driver was amazing!"

"I must present my master with a banner when I get back!"

"Forget banners, we need a plaque! You're our savior!"

Old Wu was a little embarrassed by the praise and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "No, no, no, it's nothing, it's nothing..."

After recovering, Aunt Li suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Li Tiezhu: "Husband, did you hear anything just now?"

Just as the evil spirit was being thrown out, something seemed to make a sound.

Li Tiezhu thought for a moment: "It seems...there might be. Perhaps the bus chassis scraped against a rock?"

"Oh……"

Aunt Li nodded, not thinking much of it.

The excitement of surviving the ordeal continues.

Some people started discussing where to go next, some started talking about how thrilling tonight's experience was, and some started planning how to celebrate their lucky escape.

Nobody noticed—

A soft, rhythmic sound came from above.

"Da...da...da..."

The sound was very soft, almost drowned out by the noise inside the car.

But for some reason, Aunt Li heard it.

She looked up at the roof of the car.

"What is that sound?"

She asked, not in a loud voice, but several people nearby heard her.

"What's that sound?" Li Tiezhu asked.

"Listen..."

Aunt Li perked up her ears. "It sounds like...there's a leak?"

The car gradually quieted down.

Several people followed her gaze and looked at the roof of the car.

"Da...da...da..."

The sound continued.

And it's getting clearer and clearer.

It's not leaking.

Leaks don't happen rhythmically.

That is……

"Footsteps."

Lin Feng's voice suddenly rang out, dry and terrified.

His face was completely bloodless, his eyes were fixed on the roof of the car, and his pupils were contracted violently with fear.

"It's footsteps... He's on the roof of the car..."

The car fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone looked up at the thin sheet metal roof and listened to the increasingly clear "clattering" sound.

step.

Two steps.

Three steps.

That thing was moving slowly and unhurriedly on the roof of the car.

It's like taking a walk in your own backyard.

"No...it's impossible..."

Li Tiezhu's voice trembled, "We clearly threw him off...we clearly saw him fall..."

"How did he get up here?" Lin Feng practically shouted. "When did he get up here?"

No one can answer this question.

All they knew was that thing was never truly gone.

He has always been there.

It's on the roof now.

"Driver!"

Lin Feng lunged towards the driver's seat, shouting, "Driver, please think of something! Quickly, think of something!"

Old Wu's hands were trembling as he gripped the steering wheel. Looking at the road ahead through the windshield, his mind was blank.

Think of a solution?

What can he do?

That was his limit.

If we try again, we won't have that luck; the bus will definitely overturn.

and--

The "tap tap tap" of footsteps suddenly stopped.

Immediately afterwards, a piercing metallic scraping sound came from the roof of the car.

"Squeak—creak—creak—creak—"

That was the sound of an axe being dragged across the roof of the vehicle.

The evil spirit is looking for a place.

"He...he's coming down..."

Aunt Li muttered to herself, slumped in her seat, trembling like a leaf, "He's getting off..."

Desperate screams erupted again from inside the car.

Some people crawled under the seats, some squeezed into the aisle, and some desperately pounded on the windows, trying to jump out.

But outside the window is a cliff, a bottomless valley.

There is no escape.

The metallic scraping sound from the roof stopped.

then.

"Bang!!!"

A loud crash came from overhead, and a piece of the metal roof of the car suddenly bulged out, as if it had been hit hard by a heavy object from the outside.

"Bang!!!"

Second tone.

The bulge grew larger, and the edges of the sheet metal began to tear.

"Bang!!!"

Third tone.

A triangular crack appeared, and moonlight shone through it, illuminating the pale, terrified faces of everyone inside the car.

It also shone on that bloodstained axe.

The axe reached in through the crack and swayed from side to side, as if testing the waters.

Then, the tear was torn even wider.

Immediately afterwards, a face peered down.

Lin Tian looked down at the terrified crowd in the carriage, and then he smiled.

"Little mice, we've found you."
