Chapter 120 - 401 To survive, one needs divine protection, or... luck.

above?"

Upon hearing this word, Jiang Qiao was startled.

"This bus is indeed something special."

He narrowed his eyes slightly.

The two words the driver inadvertently revealed likely indicate the existence of a secret organization behind the bus.

Moreover, this secret organization is so powerful that even the City God has to give way to it.

"Incredible."

A chill ran through Jiang Qiao's heart.

An organization that allows buses to travel freely in the supernatural world, yet most people are unaware of its existence.

Many people even thought that the bus was just a special kind of ghost or a strange tale, running on a certain route in a recurring cycle.

After all, they didn't even have the right to talk to the driver.

Naturally, they could not comprehend the immense terror hidden within.

"Hehe, the supernatural world is a deep and complex place. But there's no need to be curious about everything."

The driver observed Jiang Qiao's changing expression through the rearview mirror and said something meaningful.

You're right.

"These are far too far away for me; they are not even in the same world. To rush into them would be a recipe for disaster."

Jiang Qiao nodded, not denying the driver's statement.

"However, this female ghost... is the 'Death-Bringing Woman' you mentioned? She came to Yancheng by bus and caused a series of crises."

"As a bus driver, you failed to stop her dangerous behavior, which is a bit of inaction."

Jiang Qiao changed the subject and began to probe for information about the female ghost.

After all, the female ghost on his back had interacted with the female ghost on the bus once, which made him more vigilant.

"You want to know what the Death-Chasing Woman does and why she came to Yancheng?"

The driver asked with a half-smile.

"After all, I paid to get on the bus. It's not unreasonable for me to have a right to know if there's any danger, is it?"

Jiang Qiao said.

Along the way, he roughly understood.

Anyone who pays a fee will receive a certain level of protection on this bus.

While this protection isn't absolute, it can help you avoid attacks from vengeful ghosts within the limits of what some drivers can manage.

The reason why other passengers felt unsafe after boarding was simply because they hadn't bought tickets.

Of course, Jiangqiao's current situation is an exception.

Although he bought a ticket, he was unlucky and encountered a special situation that even the bus driver couldn't handle.

Therefore, they can only barely survive by relying on their own efforts and self-reliance.

But, he felt...

Asking for some compensation wouldn't be unreasonable, would it?

The driver didn't speak, stared at Jiang Qiao's face for a long time, and then nodded.

"You're right."

"You are different from those passengers who evade fares. I have an obligation to ensure your safety."

"But I failed to do it, which is a pity."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiao was overjoyed, knowing there was a chance, and immediately pressed his advantage.

"I'm not asking for much. I almost died twice, so you have to give me my money back."

"Then tell me what the current situation is."

He made his request to the driver.

After listening, the driver thought about it carefully and said:

"A refund is impossible."

"But I can get that bowl out for you in a bit."

It was obvious that the driver knew about Jiang Qiao throwing a broken bowl into the abyss.

"What exactly is this abyss? Why does your bus lead to a place like this?"

Jiang Qiao turned around and looked back.

The stone-paved road remained quiet, with no unusual occurrences.

But he always felt that something was hidden in the darkness.

"I don't know either."

The driver laughed.

"I'm just a working man, the bus isn't mine."

"You're lucky, though. You opened the wooden door but didn't go inside. Otherwise, you wouldn't be here chatting with me."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiao's heart stirred.

"I was standing at the door just now, and I had the urge to jump down. Are there any evil spirits inside?"

He asked.

"A vengeful ghost?"

The driver shook his head.

"There are no evil spirits inside, at least I have never seen any evil spirits come out of there."

"But occasionally, strange tales enter through this door and travel along the stone path to the other side of the abyss."

"This time, when the 'Death-Bringing Woman' got on the bus, she summoned a terrifying old man who entered through the wooden door."

The driver then added in a somewhat serious tone:

"Wherever a harbinger of doom appears, it will attract bad luck and misfortune, and trigger inexplicable supernatural events."

"So if you run into her in the future, you'd better stay as far away as possible."

"This thing is really weird."

elder?

Jiang Qiao was somewhat puzzled.

After the bus stopped, he stayed nearby and didn't see the elderly man get on the bus.

but...

A strange feeling arose in Jiang Qiao's heart.

The previous paranormal event did seem a bit like child's play.

The vehicle is turned off.

The driver fled.

Passengers disembark.

A thick fog blanketed the area.

Connecting to the unknown world...

This series of preludes gives one a sense of impending storm.

But in fact, apart from the vengeful woman who boarded the bus, none of the vengeful ghosts he encountered from beginning to end were as powerful as the middle-aged man.

The end of the supernatural world also left him with a feeling of starting strong but ending weakly.

So he always felt a sense of unease.

"What? Have you noticed something's wrong?"

The driver chuckled as he drove.

"That's why I said you were very lucky, you almost missed that old man."

Seeing that Jiang Qiao still seemed somewhat puzzled, he continued:

"You should have seen that street by now. Two passengers who tried to evade fares got off at the back door and entered that street earlier."

"It came out from the very end of that street."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiao suddenly realized what was going on.

The street in the woods appeared abruptly. At the entrance, he also encountered a drowned ghost and killed it.

It now seems that the drowned ghost may have been with Ah Qiang all along, following him out of Wild Dog Ridge.

After Ah-Qiang wandered into the street, he died inside. So he began to wander around the area and eventually met Cambridge and Ah-Zhen.

"That old man, don't be fooled by his funeral clothes and dead-looking appearance, he's actually quite fierce."

The driver continued.

"It can split itself into a second, third, and fourth self. If you provoke it, be prepared to be surrounded and killed."

"Very difficult to deal with."

The driver's tone became very serious at the end:

"So you're very lucky, and worth talking to. Otherwise, even if you were ten times stronger, I wouldn't bother with you."

"Is it worth exchanging ideas just because you're lucky?" Jiang Qiao was taken aback.

"That's right."

The driver looked out the window, his tone tinged with reverence:

"In the supernatural world, no matter how strong or powerful you are, it's all fake. In the face of true terror, you're as fragile as paper."

"If you want to live forever..."

"Either God will protect you."

"Or maybe, luck just comes knocking at every crucial moment!"
