Yao Feiran and Xu Yueyin took the high-speed rail back to school. Both of them looked very serious. Xu Yueyin said, "Mom told me today that Dad was murdered because of Grandma, so he has never been able to forgive her. Now I realize that it was actually Grandma who was the one who was biased all along."

"Judging from the concentration of resentment in that seal, it's from a ghost king that's been sealed for a very long time. It might not be able to control it in time."

Xu Yueyin's expression grew increasingly grim. She had witnessed an entire village being wiped out, covered in blood, and that was just a vengeful ghost that was not even a Ghost King.

At this moment, Yao Feiran watched the high-speed train enter the tunnel, and in the darkness, a bloody handprint appeared on the window.

"Ah—a ghost—"

A burly man tumbled off the chair and crawled to the end of the corridor.

Another older woman laughed and said, "Young man, you're so big, yet you're so timid."

As he spoke, everyone around him burst into laughter.

Yao Feiran's lips twitched. Wasn't it said that the Ghost King rarely appeared? How come she encountered him again? Could it be because he was traveling with the female lead?

Xu Yueyin's face was grim. She was only a Yellow-rank Celestial Master and had no chance against the Ghost King. Yao Feiran was only a Profound-rank Celestial Master. Although she seemed to have an easy time last time, it was because Chen's mother killed the Ghost King directly with a talisman when he possessed her.

As everyone was talking, the high-speed train entered another tunnel, and Yao Feiran saw several more bloody handprints. After exiting the tunnel, where the big man had been, there was now an old man carrying a flower basket, and the big man had long since disappeared.

But no one noticed the problem, as if the old man was supposed to be there.

Xu Yueyin said softly, "Code name: Flower Basket Old Man, he was already at the Ghost King realm three years ago."

Xu Yueyin felt someone pat her shoulder and was so startled that she quickly looked back. It turned out to be Yao Feiran's hand; she was putting a talisman on her.

Yao Feiran took out a stack of talismans from her schoolbag and slowly stuck them together with glutinous rice paste, which amounted to two large buckets.

"Feiran, how many talismans did you bring?"

"Oh, there are a lot. There are new ones recently, so you can post a few more yourself."

Yao Feiran was also afraid of suddenly encountering trouble she couldn't solve. Xu Yueyin saw that she had almost covered herself up like a hedgehog, and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"This tunnel is way too long, and it's pitch black."

Some people started complaining.

"Ah—someone's dead."

At that moment, a human head was hanging outside the high-speed train window. It was the same head of the big man from before. Moreover, even though they were inside the tunnel, a faint red light was flashing outside, making the big man's head look particularly terrifying.

Chaos erupted instantly inside the high-speed train, with various sounds of trampling and screams mingling together. Yao Feiran noticed the old man staring at her coldly, then disappearing again after being blocked by someone.

"If I get possessed, will I die a terrible death?"

Reversal of Fate Bead: "If you are possessed, the other party will die a terrible death. Most of my energy has been used to strengthen your soul, otherwise how could you withstand the erosion of spatial power and travel through the world?"

Yao Feiran touched her chin. Although this matter reassured her a lot, she still had to preserve her physical body, otherwise she would have to go to another world.

At that moment, a man with a buzz cut patted Yao Feiran on the shoulder: "Hey girl, did your talisman work? Could I have one?"

"You're pretty calm about that."

Everyone else had jumped up and started running, but the man with the buzz cut was still sitting in the back. He gave an awkward smile and said, "I just saw that none of you had moved."

Yao Feiran slapped the talisman against his chest, and the man with the buzz cut felt the chilling aura that had seeped into his bones instantly disappear by more than half.

The man with the buzz cut looked at Yao Feiran with teary eyes: "Master, I'm not cold at all anymore. I'll transfer the money to you right away. Could you give me another bill?"

"It's free."

Yao Feiran knew the other party couldn't afford it, but she didn't care about a few talismans now; she would save as many as she could.

The girl next to him was shivering from the cold. Seeing the buzz-cut man's face turn rosy, she quickly said, "Master... could you give me one?"

"...Okay, then you don't need to pay."

It was the peak of the holiday return travel period, and many college students saw the girl putting on talismans. Their pale faces instantly disappeared, and several of them believed it and ran over to take the talismans on their own.

The others seemed to have found a lifeline and also stuck the talismans on their bodies.

Yao Feiran accepted all comers, and her space was also filled with talismans.

The main reason is that I'm too afraid of dying.

This delay caused the high-speed train to unknowingly exit the tunnel, and the people who had been there earlier were gone, leaving many people still in shock.

An old man, just woke up, complained, "They're all just charlatans. And you, young lady, don't try to swindle people at such a young age."

Yao Feiran said indifferently, "I didn't take any money, so what's it to you?"

"Hey, you little girl have no manners."

As he spoke, the old man stood up. Yao Feiran smelled alcohol on his breath. The man with the buzz cut blocked his way, saying, "Get out of here! Don't cause trouble."

Encountering ghosts is annoying enough, but then someone else comes along and causes trouble.

No sooner had she finished speaking than a great commotion broke out in cabin number 8, and soon a number of people tumbled and scrambled to Yao Feiran's cabin.

That's business class, mostly for wealthy people. Now, they can only flee in a sorry state.

"Oh, sir, you!"

The people here discovered that the old man was bleeding from all seven orifices, and then, with a thud, his head fell off.

He was the only person in the carriage who didn't have any talismans pasted on him.

The man with the buzz cut shuddered in fright, and looking down, he felt a burnt sensation on the edge of the first talisman.

He knelt down and grabbed Yao Feiran's leg: "Master, help me!"

Yao Feiran: "..."

Xu Yueyin tried calling several times but there was no signal. Someone went to carriage number six to take a look, and their voice was trembling.

"Carriage number six is ​​empty."

It goes without saying that no one represents anything, Yao Feiran thought to herself, and there must be all sorts of speculation outside about this kind of accident.

"Miss, are you a Taoist priest?"

Yao Feiran turned her head and saw a tall, upright man standing in front of her. His face was cold and aloof, and he looked like someone of high status and wealth.

Zhao Zhiran.

In the original storyline, she ended up with Xu Yueyin.

It is said that his family were just ordinary merchants, and each generation was burdened with a curse. Later, after falling in love with Xu Yueyin, Xu Yueyin relieved the Zhao family of a lot of trouble, as well as his curse.

"I am."

Yao Feiran handed over the talisman.

Zhao Zhirang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you very much, Miss. May I have your contact information? If I have the opportunity to leave, I will definitely compensate you."

"No need. This talisman isn't omnipotent anymore. Whether you survive or not depends on your fate."

A woman next to Zhao Zhiran was clinging to him, looking frightened.

"Zhi Ran, I'm scared."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here with you."

Zhao Zhiran looked at her with a pained expression, and Yao Feiran also recognized who this woman was.

Xia Ying, Zhao Zhiran's childhood sweetheart, is not immune to the tragic love story of Xu Yueyin, who is a Taoist priest. The misunderstandings and hurts between the two are basically related to Xia Ying.

Yao Feiran was now relieved that Xu Yueyin hadn't fallen in love with Zhao Zhiran. After all, Xu Yueyin was a genius Taoist priest. It was bad enough that she had to become Zhao Zhiran's maid, but she also had to act out a love triangle, and she didn't even get her mother-in-law's blessing. It was too much of a loss.

The survivors in the carriage were now huddled together. Yao Feiran distributed another round of talismans: "If anyone's talisman shows signs of burning, come here and take another one. Don't fight over them, I have plenty here."

These words seemed to reassure everyone, and the commotion in the crowd subsided considerably. Everyone stared intently at the talisman, ready to raise their hands as soon as it started to burn. Yao Feiran decisively flew the talisman over.

Xu Yueyin: "How many do you actually have?"

"Ten more cards would be more than enough for each person."

All the danger stemmed from insufficient firepower. She would slowly wear them down, and the outsiders would eventually find a way, or she would find the other party's true identity.

Gradually, the vengeful ghost changed its methods again. Heads and corpses floated on the glass outside, and seductive music began to play in the air.

One passenger was so frightened that he couldn't help but run away. In the process, the talisman was knocked down, and under everyone's gaze, his body twisted into a pretzel before he finally died.

Yao Feiran and Xu Yueyin are searching for the ghost's true form.
