Chapter 1201: Heartbreaker

  

That afternoon, Chi Shuyan took the others to Swan Lake.

Jiang Duo drove a cross-country vehicle, so there was enough space for everyone.

Going to that place again, Wei Panyang, Xiong Luoying, Jiang Duo, Xiao Ningjin and Chang Hao were no longer as excited and happy as they had been the first time round. This time, they were a little flustered. They subconsciously thought of the deaths of Wang Yu and the others, as well as about that ghost thing, and were a little scared that they would encounter something again.

It was only when they looked at Master Chi, who was sitting very calmly on the side, that they felt a little more at ease.

Wei Panyang, Xiong Luoying and Chang Hao had really been scared by that ghost thing this time. On the way, the three of them had many thoughts in their minds. In the end, Xiong Luoying couldn’t help but say, “Master Chi, there… there shouldn’t be anything else at Swan Lake apart from that ghost thing, right?”

Everyone could tell what Xiong Luoying was getting at, and they hurriedly looked at Master Chi anxiously.

Chang Hao and Wei Panyang also consoled themselves. “That’s right, Master Chi, there shouldn’t be a lot of those things, right?”

Chi Shuyan took in the nervous expressions of the boys and said honestly, “That might not be the case!”

As soon as she said that, the boys were so scared that their pupils contracted. Jiang Duo was so scared that he directly stepped on the brake. Chi Shuyan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was unperturbed. She patted Jiang Duo’s shoulder and told him to calm down and drive.

Jiang Duo’s palms were covered in cold sweat as he gripped the steering wheel. He shuddered but hurriedly focused. Driving wasn’t a joke. If he wasn’t careful, he would die first, to say nothing of ghosts coming after him. That would be too unjust.

Jiang Duo was still worried about what Master Chi had just said. As he drove, he gritted his teeth and stuttered, “Master… Master Chi, were you joking just now? Hehe, this joke is really funny!”

Chi Shuyan didn’t reply for a long time. In the end, Jiang Duo could only laugh dryly. When they saw Master Chi’s serious face, not to mention Jiang Duo, everyone else couldn’t help but want to cry.

Chi Shuyan was quite honest. She told them that as long as they wore the jade pendants, they would be fine. As for what she said just now, she was telling the truth. She had never been to Swan Lake, so how would she know if there were evil spirits there?

Because of this, the other boys who were originally interested in joking around remained silent and in a daze.

Chi Shuyan was a bit helpless and amused to see the boys so easily dealt a blow. She took out the paper man.

As soon as the little paper man appeared, it immediately jumped up and introduced itself to everyone, its head swaying around in high spirits. “Hello, everyone, I’m Shi Ran!”

As soon as the little paper man appeared, everyone except for Xiao Ningjin and Wei Panyang, who had already seen it before, were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Jiang Duo’s excited words were caught in his throat. He widened his eyes and stuttered, “What… what is this? Master Chi?”

“That… that’s right, this… what is this?” Xiong Luoying and Chang Hao also couldn’t calm down.

“Calm down and drive! Look at the road! Don’t be distracted!” Chi Shuyan didn’t forget to remind Jiang Duo.

Jiang Duo looked aggrieved. He saw his friends behind him start to communicate with the little paper man with Master Chi’s permission. They even reached out and had the little paper man jump onto their palms. The little paper man was especially obedient and immediately drew their attention. Jiang Duo was envious. Unfortunately, he had to drive, so he only dared to take peeks in the rearview mirror.

Jiang Duo felt wronged.

With the little paper man around, the atmosphere in the car became very lively. Chi Shuyan took in everyone’s excited expressions and heaved a sigh of relief. She propped her elbow on the window and prepared to rest for a while. She also informed Xiao Ningjin, who was the calmest here, to let her know once they arrived at Swan Lake.

Even though Xiao Ningjin and Wei Panyang had seen this lively little paper man before, they were still very excited at that moment. Xiao Ningjin hurriedly agreed.

Only then did Chi Shuyan close her eyes and lean back in her seat to rest.

Chi Shuyan didn’t know how long she slept. When they arrived in Y City and Xiao Ningjin called out to her, Chi Shuyan opened her eyes in a daze and looked out the window. It was already dark outside.

“Master Chi, we’re here!” On the side, Wei Panyang and the others thought that Xiao Ningjin hadn’t woken Master Chi up, so they chimed in. Moreover, if Chi Shuyan weren’t with them, this place would give them the creeps.

Only when she heard the louder voices of Wei Panyang and the others was Chi Shuyan roused completely. She saw that no one was getting out of the car, and the driver had changed at some point. The lively little paper man was now in Jiang Duo’s palm, and he looked excited.

Chi Shuyan stretched out her hand and called out, “Withdraw!”

The little paper man immediately jumped into Chi Shuyan’s hand and stopped moving; it just looked like an ordinary piece of paper.

The boys were especially curious. Chi Shuyan’s lips curved up. “Since we’re here, let’s get down to business. You should have had enough fun in the afternoon! Okay, get out of the car first!”

The boys looked at each other awkwardly, but it was Xiao Ningjin who said, “Master Chi, we haven’t reached Swan Lake yet. This is a hotel. I’m also afraid we won’t be able to return to the capital tonight since it’s so late!”

This time, the boys didn’t find the most lavish hotel. Instead, they found the hotel closest to Swan Lake. It wasn’t a hotel, but an inn.

Chi Shuyan was quite satisfied with Xiao Ningjin’s arrangement. She looked at the time. It was already past 10pm, and it was indeed a little late. She made up her mind to go to Swan Lake tonight to investigate, but didn’t tell the boys. She nodded and said, “Okay, stay here tonight. We’ll talk about the rest tomorrow!”

Xiao Ningjin and the others originally thought that Master Chi would go tonight, but when they heard her words, they heaved sighs of relief.

Going to Swan Lake during the day gave them the creeps, let alone so late at night.

Chi Shuyan led the way and got out of the car. Xiao Ningjin and the others followed behind her and entered the inn. It looked a little shabby on the outside, but it had a unique interior with a local flavor, which surprised Xiao Ningjin and the others.

The group registered at the front desk. As Jiang Duo waited for Master Chi and the others to register, he suddenly saw a young man walking down the stairs from the second floor. The man had short hair and wore a Daoist robe, which was a novel sight. If Jiang Duo hadn’t encountered a ghost before, he might not have been able to help but curse, “Stinking Daoist priest, what a poser.”

But now, Jiang Duo was thinking that this person in front of him might be an expert like Master Chi. Of course, in Jiang Duo’s heart, there was no one who could compare with Master Chi.

Jiang Duo couldn’t help but take a few more looks. Speaking of which, that attire couldn’t be considered Daoist robes per se. Not only the young man, but the woman next to him was also wearing similar attire.

Jiang Duo was curious about their identities, and couldn’t help but elbow Wei Panyang, who was the closest to him. Wei Panyang had always been loud, so when he was jostled, he yelled, and everyone looked at Jiang Duo.

“Don’t look at me, look over there. There are two people who are dressed strangely!” Jiang Duo flushed nervously when he saw Master Chi turn to look at him.

Chi Shuyan, Xiao Ningjin, and the others followed Jiang Duo’s gaze, and sure enough, they saw a man and a woman coming down from the second floor. Compared with Xiao Ningjin and the others, who were sizing up the duo curiously, Chi Shuyan’s face suddenly darkened when she saw the man and woman coming down the stairs, especially when she got a clear look at the face of the man. Her face was very unsightly and her eyes gradually turned icy cold.

Chi Shuyan’s mood was very obscure, and the others didn’t notice anything wrong for a moment. Wei Panyang couldn’t help but gossip. “Master Chi, are there really special and magical sects of Celestial Masters in this world?”

Wei Panyang had asked what everyone wanted to know the most. Their eyes lit up with curiosity.

The man and woman who had just come down the stairs were Celestial Masters with some skills and were very sharp. It could be said that when Jiang Duo first looked at them, they had already noticed it, but because the other party were ordinary people, they didn’t take it seriously.

It was just that when everyone’s eyes were fixed on them, Zhao Junrong and He Minrou frowned. Zhao Junrong was more reserved, and his frown was very subtle. Compared with Zhao Junrong, He Minrou looked impatient. She even gave Xiao Ningjin, Chi Shuyan and the others a lofty and disdainful look. “Senior Brother, we still have official business. Let’s go!”

Zhao Junrong’s eyes were also filled with disdain, but he maintained a mild smile on his face. He looked at Xiao Ningjin and the others and said gently, “Friend, is something the matter?”
