The Pathfinder (2)

es, she's about to die and she's still thinking about finding a rich husband. This Xu Qianjin is really something else.Lin Yanhuan also had a bodyguard with her. Who was the headless corpse from befor...I originally wanted to sit in the back, pregnant women shouldn't sit in the passenger seat.

But Jiang Qiyun drives, I'd rather drive myself!

"You need to materialize a body, or else everyone will see that the car is driverless..." I reminded him as I fastened my seatbelt.

He glared at me: “ …You think you can come up with something I wouldn't”

What do you mean Are you calling me stupid!

"Why don't I start then" I hesitated, saying, "Your Imperial Highness has never touched such common things, right Or maybe I—"

I hadn't finished speaking when the car suddenly moved!

I was so startled that I cried out. Jiang Qiyun coldly said again, "Sit down."

"Okay, okay." I dared not speak anymore, lest I distract him.

Even with the help of the Land God, I was still a bit worried. It wasn't until the car drove smoothly for a kilometer and remained steadily behind Big Treasure's car that I felt a little relieved.

He's much quicker than me. Now that it's late and there aren't many cars on the road, he's driving very relaxedly.

"...You can drive" I chided him a little reproachfully, "Then last time you should have driven for me, so that I wouldn't have been so nervous all the way..."

"This is my first time driving." He smirked, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "...looks like your stomach's about to hit the steering wheel, maybe I should drive"

I lowered my head and looked at my stomach. Sitting like this made my belly bulge out, making my body feel kind of strange.

"You... wouldn't find this a little strange, would you My body changed, and now I bump into things..." I hesitated to ask.

His eyelashes trembled slightly: "No."

After a moment of silence, he spoke in a low voice: "Seeing your physical changes, I have some subtle feelings, which I haven't experienced before."

I lowered my eyes, remembering what he once said.

"There is no change here, whether flowers bloom or wither. Over three thousand years, there has been no generation or transformation."

Even at the banks of Huangquan River and the grand Hall of the Underworld, Lord Yama's palace in the Six Heavens of Luofeng, the scenery wouldn't be much different.

Perhaps the most significant changes in the underworld are those of the countless souls endlessly reborn.

He smiled and said, "But pregnancy takes too long and is such a hassle... seeing you carefully guarding your belly, I don't even dare to exert myself."

"...You still don't dare to use your strength, my waist can't even straighten..." I mumbled, secretly glancing at his profile.

He chuckled softly without speaking, his eyes lazy, as if driving behind the car ahead left him bored.

As he drove over the elevated highway, the lights of the business center streaked past him in a dazzling display.

I'm a little intoxicated, I can't open my eyes.

“Are you tired” he frowned, “Why are you so sleepy”

"Heartburn and sleepiness, back pain and swollen legs are all normal reactions to pregnancy... My lord, you need to brush up on your knowledge," the old woman said, "A woman giving birth is like crossing a tribulation!" I adjusted my posture and hugged the cushion, preparing for a quick nap.

We arrived at an open bus station on the outskirts of town, a must-stop for those late-night buses.

The surrounding area was undeveloped land, fenced off with hard plastic boards. It was quite desolate, but at this moment a white sedan car was parked near the bus stop platform.

My brother stopped the car far away. Jiang Qiyun frowned and looked ahead, asking: "This place is so desolate, with no residential or commercial areas, why is there a car parked there"

I shook my head, indicating I couldn't guess either. My brother and the eldest one got out of the car and tiptoed over to take a look.

There were no streetlights, only the illuminated sign at the bus stop, a pale light that resembled a beacon in the darkness.

My brother and the eldest returned halfway and came back. After getting back to the car, my brother called me.

"Aha ha ha, someone's having a car shake session! Me and Dabao walked closer and saw that the car was almost falling apart! The sound was pretty loud! Ha ha ha." My brother's laughter came through the phone, and I heard Dabao laughing too.

My eyelids twitched twice. "Are you sure" I asked. "Couldn't there be something else going on here"

"Sure~~ people are driving with the windows open~~ car shaking is also a technical job haha, and be careful of carbon monoxide poisoning! That sound can be heard even when it's close, why don't you come down and listen" My brother laughed wickedly.

I quickly hung up the phone, to let Jiang Qiyun hear it too, I was on speakerphone. Awkward.

Who knew Jiang Qi started, calmly eyeing me: "What's there to avoid We were doing it in the car before"

I glared at him, the nerve of this guy to even say that!

I went on the car ride twice. Which time was a good memory Both times were...strong... ugh, forced on me, completely disregarding my feelings, hmph!

I was just about to put my phone away when WeChat suddenly popped up with Song Wei's message: "Awoo awoo awoo, I'm furious! The male god actually rejected my date invitation! Damn it, how much effort did I put in! I don't believe I can't seduce the male god!"

I laughed and replied, "Come on, she's just being coy. Who knows who will end up wearing the pants"

Jiang Qiyun leaned against the car window and reminded me: "Don't smile foolishly, that menacing car is coming."

I hurriedly put away my phone. Sure enough, a minibus came driving from the city direction. As it passed the bus stop, it didn't stop and continued moving forward slowly.

The menacing vehicle was shrouded in a faint grey mist, likely the result of a major accident. A car like this would normally cause an accident if driven by an ordinary person. But Da Bao, this friend of mine, has a strong fate and is also a bachelor—it's said that people with less yang leakage have more yang energy.

"Such a car, should be specially used to see ghosts." Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly: "Some Taoists raise ghosts and use evil things to control ghosts, this car should have deliberately preserved the gloomy air."

He let out a cold laugh. "Sometimes I think mortals are pretty terrifying too. Even if they can't become immortals or demons, they'll use every means possible to make themselves different from others and control powers they don't have."

To become immortal or a demon... How many ordinary people in the world are content with their lives and find peace Most people are not satisfied with their fate.

"My brother mentioned before that ghost-driven cars are called spirit vehicles, and ghosts see the road differently from us... Is that right So we need to find a living person to drive this trip"

Jiang Qiyun nodded. "That's about right. People have their own paths, and ghosts have theirs. It's probably that people and ghosts who come out of Qincheng Hospital need to go to a place where living people are, so ghosts can't be allowed to open it."

"So, we follow the car and see where they get off, and that will lead us to the mastermind"

"Maybe, as long as we don't get caught."

Qincheng Hospital was still as desolate and terrifying as ever. After Jiang Qiyun came to collect some souls last time, not even the public lights in the hospital were on anymore.

Dull and lifeless, occasionally punctuated by the shrieks and cackles of the insane, it stood like a giant tomb in the night.

Only a few small windows glowed with light, in the vast darkness. These windows, veiled by heavy curtains, resembled ghostly flames that beckoned wandering spirits and passersby.

Where is this like a hospital

I couldn't help but cross my arms and rub them together, looking towards the bus stop near the hospital entrance.

On the dark station bench, a shadow suddenly moved, stood up and walked towards the hospital entrance... black aura emanated from his body."Damn, this… how much is there! Shenglian, go get Long Xiaogē over here!" My brother looked at the endless black qi and hurriedly took out a talisman to stick on a m...
