C75 (2/2)

”Great Master Liu …” Liu Qi appeared behind me. Where did this guy learn his mistakes? He was secretly watching me go to the toilet.

Liu Qi said apologetically: ”I'm sorry, Master Liu. I just wanted to say, can you protect Zhou Qing for me?”

I whispered, ”What do you mean? Tell me clearly.”

”I just hope that Master Liu can protect Zhou Qing, because I know Master Liu is collecting souls, I guess I can be counted as one of them.”

”Are you negotiating with me? To tell you the truth, when this matter is resolved, I will send you to Samsara.”

”I... ”I know, but I hope that you can protect Zhou Qing, I do not want anything to happen to her.”

I whispered, ”Don't worry. I'll protect her.”

I walked out of the bathroom, sat back in my seat, and asked, ”How long until we arrive?”

Wang Bo said softly, ”We're almost there. We have two more stops to go.”

”What's wrong?”

”Nothing, I'm just asking.” Half an hour later, the train slowly stopped at the station, and we were the only ones to get off.

”What kind of place is this? There's no one around. Did we get off at the wrong place?”

Saying that, he glanced around and spoke with a bit of resentment. I also felt that it was a bit strange, why was this place so desolate. ”Is this where you guys came from?”

Zhou Qing said softly: ”It is here, this was originally a station, but it was changed later on, so it is gone.”

”Then how did you find that place?”

”It was Zhang Long who found it. Back then, he proposed to come here to explore, but who would've known that something like that would happen?” There was no need to speak any more nonsense, it was already late. There was a cold and gloomy atmosphere around them, this was indeed not a good place.

We walked about two miles before we saw a deserted village. At this time, the sky had already darkened and the air was somewhat moist. It seemed that it was about to rain.

”What the hell is this place?” The few of us walked into a yard, which should be where Zhou Qing and the others stayed that day.

Zhou Qing whispered to me: ”It's here, I remember that coffin is in that room.”

”I think we should hide inside for a while.” Just as I said that, raindrops as big as beans fall on my body.

We ran into the house, which had a table and chairs covered with dust. There was a musty smell in the room. It must have been a long time since someone had lived here.

I was puzzled as well. The few of them were quite powerful. They were able to find such a remote and destitute place.

Lu Fei said softly, ”This is the place. We just threw Fang Yan's corpse into an old well behind the room.”

I coldly laughed, ”You guys are really ruthless. No wonder he wanted to kill you all that much. If it were me, I would also do the same.”

It seemed that the rain wouldn't stop anytime soon. They would stay here for the night. We cleaned up the house, and I even went to the backyard to take a look. There was indeed a dried up well in the backyard, and I really couldn't believe that they would be so crazy as to throw Fang Yan's corpse into the ancient well.
