C17 Ancient Town

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the long vacation. Su Ye and Luo Li packed up their bags of stuff and hurriedly rushed to their own seas and beaches, while I leisurely dragged my luggage to the train station and sat down on a stool in the waiting room. I felt completely empty inside.

After a while, I started to check my ticket, found the car, and got into my seat. Because it wasn't a national holiday, there weren't many people coming out to play, and there were plenty of empty spots in the car. I looked at the empty space beside me, sighed, put on my headphones, and prepared to sleep until I reached the terminal.

I took off my eyepatch and looked at the guy in front of me. This guy looked like a sunny boy with a handsome face and sharp horns, wearing a pure white shirt, light jeans and white sneakers, which made him look like the ideal student of the school. Looking at me smiling, a deep dimple appeared on my face when I smiled, I couldn't help but sigh, is this the welfare of the psychic envoy?

"No, no." The boy sat down beside me.

"My name is Chen Ran, what about you?" The boy opened his mouth in a friendly manner.

"My name is Xiang Yuxing." I returned his friendly smile.

"Are you a student of G school? Me too. It's just that I've gone off to join the army and just left this year. I'm about to return to school to finish my studies. I'm from the Mathematics department." The boy's voice was low, but there was something about it that didn't quite match his appearance. Perhaps it was because he had been trained in the army.

"I'm also from the Mathematics department." According to Chen Ran's looks, I would be going to find our System Grass. I am someone that the System Grass knows, and just thinking about it makes me happy, I can go back and brag to Su Ye and the others.

We talked about talents along the way. Chen Ran was a special gentleman, and he was also very polite, and we chatted about things very carefully, and when we arrived at the station, he took my luggage, and we left each other's contact information and went our separate ways. I didn't have any other feelings, so if it was fated, we would meet again.

I took a taxi to the room I had reserved, packed my things, and fell on the bed, intending to sleep first, then go out in the evening. It was already evening when I woke up again, touched my stomach, and feeling a little hungry, I got up to wash my face and put on my coat and went out.

The sun had set and the weather was beginning to turn cold. On both sides of the road were brightly lit merchants, but the commercialization of the town wasn't that serious, and all the shops were made of wood, and although it wasn't the peak season for tourism, there were still a lot of people in the ancient town. There were golden haired and blue eyed foreign people, and big sisters in Han clothing, and everyone in the ancient town had changed into their favorite clothes, but they couldn't wear anything in the ancient town.

Just as I was about to order dishes, I heard a surprised voice sound out from behind me. "Xiang Yuxing, what a coincidence, we met each other again." When I saw that it was the boy Chen Ran in the day, I was also a little surprised, but could only nod my head.

"Are you also a person? Me too. If you don't mind, then let's go together." Chen Ran smiled magnanimously. I nodded after thinking for a while.

After a while, the waiter started to serve the dishes. I was really hungry, but when I saw Chen Ran's shocked eyes, I suddenly realised that there was someone else on the other side, and that it was a handsome one at that, it was too embarrassing, so the moment I felt the spiciness of the food, I coughed loudly in my throat, hurriedly handed me water, I drank a mouthful of water, and only after a while did I recover from it. When I saw Chen Ran's smile that was not a smile, I felt even more embarrassed.

Chen Ran insisted that he would send me back to my inn at night. We walked together, "You came here to travel alone, aren't you afraid?" Chen Ran said.

"Don't be afraid, your guts are all cultivated out." I smiled.

"Do you believe in ghosts?" Chen Ran continued to ask.

"I didn't believe it before, but I did." Although I didn't know why he asked that, I still spoke honestly.

"Are you afraid of ghosts?"

"Don't worry, every single thing has its own reason for existing. Humans are the same, as are ghosts. They are actually the same as us." I said very seriously.

Chen Ran did not expect that it would be this answer. He stiffened for a few seconds before laughing, "This is the first time I've heard of ghosts being like people. You are very special." When Chen Ran said this, he saw that I was looking at him with shining eyes, so I looked away uncomfortably. As I happened to see the inn, I quickly bid farewell and ran back to my own room.

I drew some runes and put them in my bag, packed my stuff, changed into a set of black clothes, and left the house. I still don't know how to use invisibility.

I looked at the tall wall and thought about it. A large area of the ancient house's walls had fallen off, and dark red mud leaked out, making it look a bit strange under the moonlight. It looked like mottled blood, and there was a heavy lock on the ancient house's door.

"What kind of Glyph Devils are these? They're too ugly, these liars are too unprofessional." I stuck the pirated yellow talisman back and snorted disdainfully. I walked around the house, not knowing what to do. I complained in my heart: Dead white, stinky white, said to come and stay with me, but in the end, I didn't see any ghosts. I picked up a branch and beat it against the wall in boredom.

At this time, there was a creaking sound in front of me, like the sound of a wooden door being opened, I carefully walked forward, it was the back door of the house, it was very short, I could only allow one person to pass through it, after a long period of inrepair, the wooden door was already on the verge of collapse, a gust of wind blew past, the wooden door was slowly being pushed open, the scene was very strange, as if an invisible hand was slowly pushing the door open, I subconsciously retreated, focused on taking out a handful of peach wood sword s from the space of Spirit Treasure Jade, protecting me, waiting for a moment, nothing, the inside of the wooden door was pitch black, I gritted my teeth as I walked inside.
