1465 Mysterious Funeral Home

ddle-aged man and woman immediately grabbed the child and ran away, giving me a hard glare.... out of the blue.I tossed the small wooden stick in my hand and sniffed, "Even a child is suffering like t...The apparition wasn't just clinging to the car; from the rearview mirror, you could even see the bottom half of the apparition running incredibly fast!

"Ahh ahh ahh—" I slammed on the steering wheel in fright, almost veering into the ditch.

Jiang Qiyun was startled by me, reaching out to grab the steering wheel and glaring at me: "What are you doing!"

"There's a ghost chasing the car!" I panicked, my scalp tingling as I nervously looked out the side window.

“Look closely.” Jiang Qiyun sighed helplessly, “How can Mu Yunfan let you drive”

"I can drive! But I'm scared..." I unbuckled my seatbelt hurriedly and looked out the side window.

Outside my car window, a ghostly figure was grinning.

But any ghost with a shred of sentience would avoid the gods of the underworld at all costs. Jiang Qiyun's presence naturally emanated the aura of an underworld deity. Even wandering spirits and wild ghosts couldn't run fast enough to escape. This was the first time I'd ever seen a ghost desperately "racing" after us!

Please don't scare me!

Jiang Qiyun saw my bristling expression and said with a smile, "Aren't you scared witless by Yin Su Bai and his band of demons Are you jumping at shadows now Take a closer look."

I patted my chest and turned my head to look out the car window.

The shadowy figure outside the car window retreated, allowing me to see his attire.

The ghost wore a robe from an unknown dynasty, with a hat shaped like a basin on its head. It was thin and small.

At my sight, the ghostly figure recoiled and bowed in deference.

I was taken aback. Ghosts who bowed to me were usually minor officials from the underworld.

"Is this... the Fuk Tak Chin of this place" I turned to look at Jiang Qiyun.

So-called "Fude Zhengshen" are the land deities of a particular area. In my daily life, I've encountered many land deities while traveling. Most of them were people who were well-known and virtuous in life, contributing to living beings. Their attire is truly diverse; sometimes, at first glance, it can be quite frightening.

This land god is also dressed in "strange and unusual attire," and he was sitting on a cow chasing my car. He suddenly came up to me just now, scaring the living daylights out of me.

"You... your mount... it's pretty fast..." I said, lowering the car window a bit awkwardly.

Land God bowed and said, “Heh heh… My apologies, my apologies. Because the Celestial Emperor has arrived, the small deity heard the call and feared causing trouble, so I hurried over quickly. I startled the little Madam, I am guilty, I am guilty.”

"No, no, no... It's nothing... It's just that I'm short-sighted. Lord Fude, please guide me. My brother chased someone and ran forward, I'm going to look for him now. Is there anyone ahead" I asked hurriedly.

Land Lord frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "My Lady, although this place is next to the city, it's sparsely populated due to the terrain. It's not a good place for sightseeing. How did you end up here"

“I’m not here to play around. I was heading out of town to a remote area, and somehow ended up near here. I saw a cloud of black mist appearing behind my car, so I stopped to ask for directions. The elderly couple living in the house by the roadside were very impatient and shooed us away, saying there were only a few scattered houses ahead.” I explained quickly.

Landlord nodded, in order to be eye-to-eye with me sitting in the car, he knelt on the back of the "shadow ox" and said to me: "Little Empress, although you live in this city, you rarely walk around the surroundings. In this direction there is a range of mountains..."

I had never been on a tour group before. When I was a child, I lived in an old house in my hometown. After being brought to the city by my dad, my life revolved around school and the apartment building. Even after going to college, whenever I went out with Song Wei, we only visited nearby shopping malls.

I've never paid attention to what tourist attractions are around the city, nor do I know the terrain surrounding it.

"To the northwest of this city, mountains stretch endlessly with dense and deep forests, making it difficult to develop. Therefore, the government relocated its inhabitants, leading to a gradual decrease in population. The villages that once existed in these mountains have also gradually become deserted. In recent years, only adventurers who climb mountains come here sporadically." The土地公公 said with a serious expression.

"The population is sparse, and all things in nature are imbued with spirits; yang energy is insufficient, and yin energy pervades... Little Lady, if you wish to find someone, this old man will lead the way for you and His Majesty."

"Okay, thanks. We can talk as we walk," I nodded.

Driving the car forward, I didn't dare to speed. The Yin soldiers were searching for my brother and Zheng expert along the road.

My brother, I'm not worried about him. He's a bold and meticulous person. Ordinary people and even ghosts wouldn't be able to take advantage of him. However, Zheng expert's unusual actions make me a little uneasy.

Archie is clueless and can't find the mysterious funeral home. Our only hope lies with Zheng, the expert.

Zheng, the expert, seems to have something up his sleeve. Although Achi works in the funeral industry, he's a businessman at heart. Zheng's professional level is many times higher than Achi's, and he has an academic demeanor and meticulous nature. He must have discovered something before fleeing from the car.

Otherwise, in this desolate and misty wilderness, where could he run to after leaving his car

I was getting anxious and couldn't help but honk the horn, hoping my brother and Professor Zheng would hear it and hurry back. Please don't wander around in this foggy place anymore.

"Shut up!! What's with the blasted music so late at night!" someone yelled from the darkness ahead.

Land God frowned and gestured for the Yin soldiers not to act rashly.

A wiry old man in his sixties, carrying an axe, yelled at me from the roadside.

"...Old man, I'm looking for someone. Have you seen two—"

"Two men, weren't they They chased each other from in front of my gate up the mountain! I couldn't even call after them!" The old man glared at me and said, "You young people, don't go looking for excitement in the mountains in the middle of the night! This mountain is desolate. After the old forest, there's nothing to see."

"Okay, thank you." I parked the car on the side of the road and got ready to go up the mountain.

Jiang Qiyun clutched my wrist, shaking his head. "Don't be rash," he said. "This man is like that old man just now. Staying in such a place filled with evil energy isn't ordinary."

"You're not here, or else I wouldn't dare to go down." I replied in a low voice.

Jiang Qiyun curled her lips into a smile: "Human hearts are more treacherous than the fear of demons. Even if I were here, you would have to be more composed... little empress."

I swallowed nervously. That whisper from the little lady seemed to be reminding me, in front of these civil servants in the underworld, I should pay attention to my image. Otherwise, if these low-level officials spread rumors about the little lady's clumsy and embarrassing appearance everywhere, it wouldn't do her any good.

"Cough..." I adjusted my emotions, rubbed my face, and the car window was only slightly open. I spoke to the Land God outside: "Please send your Yin soldiers to search for my brother's whereabouts. There is also a man who came with us, surnamed Zheng, over fifty years old. My brother chased this man into the mountains."

"This old one will take your order… However, finding the elder sibling of the young lady would be easier as they possess an aura of nobility. Ordinary people might easily get lost in this gloomy atmosphere... It will take some time.”

"Okay, I'll look around here too —"

The man outside, holding a cleaver, interrupted me angrily: “What are you looking for! Look for it at dawn. Why run into the mountains when there's nothing to worry about There are still wild animals in the mountains these days. Don't joke with your life!”

I purse my lips, I'm not very good at dealing with this kind of person. My brother isn't here either, and outsiders can't see Jiang Qiyun, so they just bully me as a woman.

Before leaving, the Land God whispered to me, “Little Lady, if you want to enter the mountain, you must be accompanied by the Emperor. Be careful... chopping wood..."ergency acupoints, it also treats epilepsy, delirium, even toothache, nosebleed, and jaundice...Of course, acupuncture treatment is required.But it's about acupuncture, not just for treatment, but usi...
