The mention of the ghost candle immediately brought to Zhao Yi's mind the image of Carriage Number One.
It was also the carriage that Little Ghost Xuan Xuan had asked Zhao Yi to go to.
Xuan Xuan was a name from a textbook.
After expressing his gratitude to the three evil spirits, Zhao Yi headed towards Carriage Number Three but was stopped by a middle-aged man who grabbed his arm.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
"Zhao Yi, where are you going?"
Zhao Yi replied earnestly, "I'm going to pursue my freedom!"
The middle-aged man saw that Zhao Yi was determined to go and hurriedly said, "I'll go with you!"
Although the three evil spirits had already promised that they were safe for now, Wang Xu still believed that it was safest to follow Zhao Yi. Even if he had to do something at times, as long as it wasn't too dangerous, it wouldn't be a problem.
But Li Miaomiao refused.
"What about me if you all leave? What am I supposed to do?"
A hint of displeasure flashed in Wang Xu's eyes, but he didn't say anything.
"You can come with us," Wang Xu suggested.
Li Miaomiao looked at the two of them and sneered.
"Go and court death with you guys?"
"I finally found a temporarily safe place. Do you think I'm stupid?"
At this point, Wang Xu couldn't hold back anymore and frowned.
"We are all in the same mission instance. Are you planning to sit back and reap the benefits without doing anything?"
Li Miaomiao sarcastically remarked, "Oh, Mr. Experienced is in a hurry!"
"Let me tell you, since you brought me in, you must bring me out!"
"Besides, if Zhao Yi is so powerful, can't he complete the mission alone? It's as if you guys are doing the mission for me!"
"If the mission fails, we will all die!"
Even Wang Xu, who was usually smooth and cautious, was extremely annoyed by Li Miaomiao's attitude.
But they were still on the same boat for now, and he didn't want to cause trouble for himself.
He couldn't afford to break ties with her.
"We have no obligation to protect you. If you want to come with us, come. If you don't want to, you can stay here and wait for us to finish the mission. It's up to you!"
With anger in his voice, he left these words behind and followed Zhao Yi.
Li Miaomiao's face, which still had some charm, was filled with coldness and resentment. After reluctantly glancing at their retreating figures, she reluctantly followed them.
She didn't want to do this, but she knew that staying in Carriage Number Five would be even more dangerous!
The safety mentioned by the three evil spirits was only temporary.
There was no specific time frame.
When the two insignificant people in her eyes left, she would be left alone to face the danger.
So, even though she felt unhappy deep inside, she still followed behind the two.
Upon entering the fourth carriage, they were greeted by a rather eerie sight.
Unlike them, the fourth carriage seemed to have no challenges. Between the flickering lights, six evil spirits huddled in a corner, trembling, seemingly afraid of something.
And sitting on a hard seat in front of them was a lovely girl, humming an unknown nursery rhyme.
As the three approached, they realized it was Tian Tian, holding a tattered teddy bear.
When Tian Tian saw Zhao Yi, she happily jumped off her seat and threw herself into his arms.
"Big Brother Zhao!"
"Vinnie just told me that you would come and save us, and I didn't expect you to actually show up!" Zhao Yi touched her hair and glanced at the corner where the evil spirits were. Their eyes were filled with fear when they looked at Tian Tian. It seemed that Tian Tian had done something to frighten them!
"Haha, let me introduce you. These gentlemen are passengers in this train carriage. They were very enthusiastic earlier and wanted to play games with me... Hmph, but they stopped playing halfway through, so annoying!" Tian Tian said, sticking her tongue out at the trembling evil spirits in the corner. One of the female spirits even wet herself out of fear! The scene was shocking and powerful! If it weren't for Zhao Yi and Tian Tian's quick reflexes, they would have been sprayed all over.
Li Miao Miao, who was behind them, looked at the evil spirits with a strange tone, "What a stroke of luck! Encountering a bunch of cowardly losers." She felt particularly aggrieved. Why did she encounter vicious ghosts while this seemingly gentle girl stumbled upon a group of scaredy-cats?
But still, no one paid any attention to her, as if they treated her as air. Zhao Yi swept his gaze around, confirming that there was no way out of this train carriage. There was a film of flesh membrane on the door that couldn't be broken by external force. It seemed that the mission didn't want them to take shortcuts. Or perhaps, the rules of the system were protecting them.
The outside world was filled with unimaginable dangers. They had to obtain the ghost candle first before considering leaving the train!
So, they had to go to carriage number one.
"Alright, stop trembling. I'll take Tian Tian to carriage number one, and you guys can play by yourselves," Zhao Yi said, and the six evil spirits immediately expressed their gratitude, kowtowing to Zhao Yi. "Woo! Kind person!" "We kowtow to you!" These guys were truly terrified by Tian Tian.
Zhao Yi ruffled Tian Tian's hair and led her towards carriage number three. Wang Xu followed closely behind, being cautious enough to give the evil spirits a wide berth as they passed by. Although these evil spirits were indeed lowly, he was still wary of them.
As for Li Miao Miao, who was walking at the back, she even spat in the direction of the six ghosts. She looked proud, as if she had finally transformed from a victim to a perpetrator. However, when the ghost hit by her saliva raised its head, revealing a pair of cold eyes that glowed with a green light, Li Miao Miao's legs turned weak. She was frightened and stumbled towards carriage number three. Along the way, she accidentally tripped on her high heels and fell flat on her face, her icy expression smearing against Wang Xu's sweaty and mysteriously scented buttocks.
The eerie smell almost made Li Miao Miao vomit. She pushed Wang Xu away and leaned against a seat, retching with a pale and green face.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what had happened. Li Miao Miao's complexion was extremely poor, and she looked at Wang Xu with increasing disgust in her eyes.
The second and third carriages were the birthplaces of Wen Ling, Bai Shui Ji, and Qin Xiu Fang. By the time Zhao Yi arrived, they had successfully completed the ghost games in their carriages. From their descriptions, the ghost games in their carriages weren't too difficult and didn't pose a lethal threat.
Except for Zhao Yi's sixth carriage.
However, as a player with a luck value of 0, Zhao Yi didn't have much expectation for himself.
The group of seven, all currently alive and with no losses, entered carriage number one.
There were no seats here, only a blood-stained wooden table blocking the path to the driver's cabin. On it were six bloody severed heads, with eerie expressions. Their scalps and skulls were sliced open horizontally, and the brains were lit by six green candles!
The stewardess turned around, her neck broken with only a layer of skin connecting it. She smiled at everyone and said, "Welcome... to the D19 train!"
Upon seeing this woman, Zhao Yi finally realized that they had barely touched the main point of the mission...
