Lord Shenxiu

Chapter 652: Intersection (Extra 1600)


"There's nothing much, just some enthusiasts for doing live streaming events..."

Xia Tian waved his hand, feeling that the person opposite might be an outsider: "You shouldn't wander around here alone at night, it's very dangerous."

"Yeah, at this Ten Evil Intersection, after 11 p.m., even taxi drivers are reluctant to come here..."

Zhong Shenxiu nodded in agreement: "Are you waiting for a ride?"

Xia Tian was stunned there, feeling as though he had encountered a competitor.

His task was to try to hitch a ride here at midnight and live stream for 1 hour!

And what if he couldn't catch a ride?

This question... Xia Tian really hadn't thought about it.

It wouldn't just show a task failure, would it?

He glanced at the live stream unconsciously, only to discover a string of notifications:

[Zhenzhen Aipajing has left the room...]

[Fu Fu Xiaojiang has left the room...]

[Coconut has left the room...]

...

"Did all the big shots leave? What's going on?"

Xia Tian was confused, staring at the screen and the figure that appeared beside him, suddenly had an idea, then shook his head, feeling it was unlikely.

'It couldn't possibly be that they were scared away by this person, right?'

'According to Lv Xin, terror only retreats in the face of greater terror, unless this young man is a Gui Yi! And a very powerful one at that...'

'Wait, Gui Yi?!'

Xia Tian's expression froze, as beads of cold sweat emerged on his forehead.

He stepped back subtly, glancing at the ground.

'Well, there's a shadow... so probably not...'

'But that's not right, who said Gui Yi don't have shadows...'

Xia Tian fell into a quandary.

And this change was also noticed by Zhong Shenxiu.

'Live stream?'

'Gui Yi transmitted through the internet, are they all so up-to-date now?'

'Some trouble now, how do you deal with metaphysical Gui Yi?'

Unlike the go-everywhere company, which has a large building as its entity, this time's target seemed to be a conceptually based Gui Yi.

How to harm such a Gui Yi?

Zhong Shenxiu tapped his chin, deep in thought.

Xia Tian also didn't dare to move recklessly, and time flew by in the awkward silence between the two.

In the blink of an eye, it was midnight.

Along with the sound of a horn, a small car slowly drove from one direction of the Ten Evil Intersection.

To ordinary people, this was just an ordinary red taxi.

If they encountered an emergency at night, six or seven out of ten would directly hail it.

But Xia Tian felt as though his breath was choked, as if a large stone was placed on his chest.

Of course, he knew that at night at the Ten Evil Intersection, there would definitely not be a taxi daring to pass through!

He closed his eyes and then opened them again, only to see that the color of the taxi was somewhat off, seeming too bright.

Moreover, it appeared to be very thin, as if it would be blown away by the wind.

That was... a paper vehicle!

Specifically made to be burned for the deceased... a Spirit Car!

'I knew it, I just knew that the live stream room wouldn't just let me off easy... This task is practically playing with my life!'

Xia Tian was certain in his heart that the one the live stream room wanted him to ride was this car.

But he still harbored a glimmer of hope, feeling that if he waited a bit longer, maybe a second normal vehicle would pass by, right?

Just as he was internally debating, Zhong Shenxiu had already suavely extended his left hand and gave a thumbs up.

Beep beep!

The sound of tires scraping the ground arose as the Spirit Car came to a halt right in front of Zhong Shenxiu.

He deftly pulled the door open, got in, and then asked Xia Tian, "Fancy a carpool?"

Xia Tian clenched his teeth, looked at the crossroads devoid of all other vehicles, and pulled the door open.

The Spirit Car started swiftly.

Inside the car, the seats were very comfortable, one could hardly feel any friction or trembling from the road surface, making for an excellent riding experience.

If only the driver in front wasn't made of paper, it would be even better.

"My name is Gui Yi, how about you?"

Zhong Shenxiu sat next to the driver, striking up a conversation with Xia Tian in a casual manner.

"I... I am Xia Tian! I'm a streamer!"

"A streaming host, huh? I heard those streaming hosts make good money, take me with you..."

Zhong Shenxiu didn't mind becoming a peculiar kind of streaming host.

Unfortunately, Xia Tian couldn't quite explain how it all happened.

He just started receiving rewards and became a peculiar streamer.

And that 'Chu Chu Beauty', as soon as Zhong Shenxiu made an appearance, she ran away... ran away...

"Big brother... is now really the time to discuss this? Look outside..."

Xia Tian said with a gloomy face.

Zhong Shenxiu looked outside the window, to find that at some point, a dense fog had enveloped the surroundings, revealing vague dark silhouettes.

This place could be anywhere, but it was definitely not in G city anymore.

"Oh, pretty standard stuff... Ever heard of alternate dimension theory?" He shrugged and said, "This Spirit Car is probably transporting us to a deeper level of alternate dimension... There are lots of Gui there, lots of them..."

"Big brother, you knew all along?"

Xia Tian said with a dismal face, "Then why did you still get in the car?"

"Let me introduce myself again, I am Gui Yi, but you can call me Uncle Zhong, a part-time security guard at the go-everywhere company, a specially invited consultant for the Foundation, a budding real estate baron in G city, and a part-time feng shui master!"

Zhong Shenxiu extended his right hand.

Xia Tian instinctively shook it: "Although I don't know what you're talking about, it sounds impressive... The key issue now is... how do we get back?"

"It's simple, the Spirit Car has a route. It starts from Ten Evil Intersection, then goes to depth one of the alternate dimension, followed by depth two... So, theoretically, if you just sit in the car and don't get off, there will always be a chance to return to the real world."

Zhong Shenxiu's lips curved into a slight smile, "But... there might be some unexpected incidents, like..."

As the words fell from his lips, the taxi suddenly came to an abrupt stop.

The grey fog around them dispersed, carrying a tint of dim light.

That was, a series of emerald green lights...

Amidst the surrounding darkness, it seemed as though countless faces were gathering, drawing ever closer...

This was... one of the scenarios the Foundation feared the most, the scenario that company employees claim is certain death if encountered—the attack by multiple ghosts or monsters!

More than one paranormal entity, all launching attacks at once!

Absolutely unavoidable!

Cackle!

Cackle!

Underneath those ghastly green lights, Xia Tian saw face after eerie, wooden face, receiving such an immense fright that even his thoughts began to muddle.

"And the second method..."

Zhong Shenxiu seemed oblivious to these events, continuing, "is to hijack the Spirit Car and drive it back to the real world..."

Before he finished speaking, the black umbrella in his hand already thrust out like a sword, piercing through the paper driver, grabbing him, and tossing him out.

The surrounding ghost tide seemed to pause for a moment, or perhaps not, and continued to draw closer.

As if the paper driver was just a pebble thrown into the raging tide, causing a splash before disappearing after a leap...
