C3 Ethereal Opening

"Ethereal Opening?" I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't figure out what the word meant.

The old Daoist nodded. "Of course you don't know. Ethereal Opening is actually an ability that allows one to communicate with the Yin." Even I, the old Daoist, do not have the ability to do so. Once my soul enters the Nether Realm, I will immediately become a wandering soul without any consciousness, and I will definitely not be alive. "

He frowned and continued, "Normally, it's impossible for an ordinary person like you to succeed at Ethereal Opening. But not only did you succeed, you were even able to wake up. Strange, strange."

"I feel like I just had a dream, that's all. I've often had this kind of dream before. Taoist, is there a problem?" I feel that what the old Daoist said is too outrageous, or I subconsciously don't want to believe it.

"Strange, it's really strange, it doesn't make sense!" Return to Ethereal Opening, it's a legendary event. " The old Daoist ignored me and continued to mutter to himself.

After a long while, the old Daoist gave up his thoughts and looked at me. "Benefactor, have you encountered any strange incidents recently?"

"Strange event, what does the Taoist mean?"

"It could be a strange person, or a strange object. It could also be some kind of strange scene."

After hearing what the old Daoist said, my expression slightly changed. I suddenly thought of something, but I didn't say it out loud. Instead, I shook my head and said, "No. Aside from that weird dream I had this morning, I didn't encounter anything abnormal."

"If that's the case, then I really can't understand. However, I need to tell you something. Strictly speaking, I'm afraid that you can no longer be considered to be completely alive. You need to be careful in the future."

I was shocked and hastily asked, "Leader, please don't scare me. Why am I not alive anymore?"

"Since you have already entered the Netherworld and have a cause and effect on the ghost and death aura on you, how can you be considered alive? With your current condition, I'm afraid you will provoke a lot of ghosts in the future, so you should be more careful in the future. If anything strange happens to you, you can ask this humble one for help. Although this humble one's mana is low, I still have some ability to kill monsters and ghouls. "

"Thank you, Taoist-sir."

The old Daoist's words made me a little distracted. I kept on feeling that there was no practical way for the other party to get around it. On the contrary, he was trying to scare me, but I had no idea what his intentions were. Furthermore, I just recalled an unusual matter from me, so I bid farewell to the old Taoist and left the Taoist temple.

The old Daoist didn't keep me and didn't mention anything about ghosts. Instead, he gave me three talismans, saying that he can guarantee my safety three times. If he runs out of talismans, he can come find him again.

When I was far away from the Taoist temple, I suddenly remembered that I forgot to ask about the advertisement. I would probably be found out by Huang Tianming, but I wasn't in the mood to think about it right now. Instead, I rolled up my sleeves and looked at a light green scar on my arm.

This scar has existed since I could remember, and I thought it was a birthmark. However, a few days ago, this scar suddenly turned red, and I thought it was an inflammation, so I went to the hospital to examine it. The illness was not found, but instead, I discovered that it was not a birthmark at all, but a tattoo!

I grew up in an orphanage since I was a child. Perhaps this was left behind by my birth parents to confirm my identity, but after so many years, I have long since lost the hope of finding my birth parents. Even if the other party really did come looking for me, I might not be able to recognize them.

What bothered me was that after the mark turned red, it kept burning up. I took a lot of anti-inflammatory drugs, but since I didn't have any money in my pocket, I decided to wait until I got my salary before going to the hospital to check it out.

I discovered that the mark had returned to green. When did it recover? Yesterday, it was still red. That was today, after the awakening of the dream!

My face grew more and more unsightly. The combination of various signs seemed to indicate that I was really contaminated with something unclean.

With a heavy heart, I came to the highway at the bottom of the mountain. Looking around, I tried to find a convenient car that didn't cost money. After looking for a long time, I still couldn't find a car.

The online booking would have to be about 100 yuan this time. I didn't know if I could pay for it. I hesitated for a long time with my cell phone. Even after a long while, I still couldn't bear to take the order.

Suddenly, there seemed to be a car speeding towards the city. I immediately stood at the side of the road and waved crazily. But when I got closer, he realized it was a motorcycle. He was a little disappointed, but he didn't stop.

The motorcycle actually slowed down and finally came to a screeching halt in front of me.

"Can we hitchhike to the city center?" I asked with the kindest smile I could think of.

"Get in!" The rider didn't say much, just two words.

"Alright, thank you!" I crossed my legs in the back seat, was in a good mood, and said thank you.

The rider didn't reply. He hit the gas pedal and the motorcycle shot out like an arrow.

It almost knocked me off my feet, and I grabbed the rider by the waist and pressed him closer. The other party's waist was very soft and had traces of fragrance on it. My mind jolted as I thought to myself, So, it was a woman.

The motorcycle was fast. At first, I thought it was cool, but as the motorcycle got faster, I couldn't take it anymore. My legs were shaking a little.

"What are you doing riding so fast? Slow down!"

I patted the rider in front of me twice to signal him to slow down. It's easy to get into an accident.

After a few shouts, the motorcycle didn't slow down, but instead sped up. My face turned pale from fright as I hastily shouted, "Stop! Stop!" Even if you don't want it, I still want it! "

I raised my voice higher and higher and my words became more and more intense, but no matter how I shouted, the people in front of me didn't budge. The motorcycle roared like a madman, and the scenery on both sides flew backwards.

"This is bad!" There was a car! There was a car in front! "Halt, quickly slow down!"

In the distance, a large truck appeared from the opposite direction, and I warned her loudly, afraid that the female rider would take us both under the wheel with a shudder of her hand.

But what was there to be afraid of? As the big truck got closer, the motorcycle suddenly charged into the middle of the road, charging straight towards the big truck.

This almost scared me out of my bladder. I immediately pulled the rider in front of me hard. Even if both of them fell into the ditch, it would still be better than running into a truck. At least there was still a chance of survival.

After grabbing, it was as though I had seen something inconceivable. I didn't even remember that I was about to crash into a car. My eyes were fixated on the empty spot in front of me.

The driver of the motorcycle was gone!

In that instant, the driver of the motorcycle was gone. The motorcycle charged straight towards the truck, but the truck didn't seem to be able to see him. It didn't seem like it had any intention of dodging. It didn't even step on the brakes.

What was even more ridiculous was that my body seemed to have lost control and I couldn't move at all. I could only helplessly watch as I got closer and closer to the truck.

"It's over. I've really seen a ghost. I won't be able to survive this!" Just as I was about to collide with the truck, I lost all hope and closed my eyes, ready to die.

At that moment, the spell paper that I had been holding in my hand suddenly flared and flared. Then, as if I had been struck hard by something, I was pulled off my motorcycle and dropped into a ditch by the side of the road.

The van roared past, and I even felt my clothes being swept, and I lay panting in the ditch.

After lying on my back for ten minutes, I recovered my strength and regained control of my body. I quickly got up from the ground and ran to the main road to observe the situation.

I was afraid that it was an illusion. If that was the case, then the female motorist and her motorcycle would have been crushed into cake by the truck. The truck didn't even stop, and it would have been a hit-and-run.

When they arrived at the roadside, they did not see the bloody scene that they had imagined. Instead, they found a flattened paper man and a motorcycle that could barely be seen — it was also made of paper!

Looking at these two objects, I felt a buzz in my head. My body felt so cold that even my teeth were chattering. With a loud scream, I turned around and ran away.

He ran several kilometers and reached the city center. It was dark the day after tomorrow. He immediately took a taxi and returned to his rented house.

I opened the door and saw Zhu Qilin sitting on the sofa. His mountainous figure gave me a sense of security. He leaned on the door frame and breathed heavily.

As he walked over, he said, "Why have you only just returned, and your complexion is so bad. Let me tell you, you didn't return to report in the afternoon, and Huang Shiren gave you a painful reprimand during a meeting. You're probably going to be expelled."

At this moment, I was still in a panicked state, so how could I have the mood to care about this. After I felt that I had recovered some strength, I waved my hand at the Scarlet Kylin.

Zhu Qilin frowned as he followed with a puzzled expression. Looking at me, who was trembling on the bed, he said, "What's wrong? Are you having a fever? Do you want to find a doctor?" "But let's make a declaration first. I can help you find a doctor, so you should pay for it yourself."

"No need, I'll be ready in a moment." I shook my head to show that I was all right.

"It's good as long as you're fine. Right now, it's getting more and more expensive to see a doctor. "Oh yeah, Sun Lingling asked me several times this afternoon why I couldn't get through to you. It seems like she has something to say to you."

"How could my phone be dead? Did he not say anything?" I felt a little better, so as not to show it, I sat up.

"I didn't say, but your phone is really out of contact. See if you've touched the flight mode."

I took out my phone and looked at it to see if there were any problems. The call was immediately connected to the Scarlet Kylin. The Scarlet Kylin tsk-tsked in surprise, but I had an ugly expression on my face.

"What a coincidence!" I grinded my teeth as I muttered.

"What did you say?" Zhu Qilin, who didn't hear clearly, looked at me and asked.

"Nothing, that Sun Lingling really didn't say anything about finding me. Did Huang Shiren harass her again?" "That guy won't cry until he sees the coffin. If I don't, I'll beat him up." I didn't want to tell him that I met a ghost, so I suppressed my anger. I really wanted to beat up Huang Tianming.

Zhu Qilin nodded his head and agreed with me, "That old man is asking for a beating, but you should first give Sun Lingling a call. She seems to have urgent business with you. Maybe it's because she wants to confess to you, hahaha!"

Because I helped Sun Lingling resist the harassment from Huang Tianming several times in the company, everyone in the company thought I liked Sun Lingling and treated this matter as a joke.

I know that Sun Lingling doesn't have any interest in me. She might even use me as a shield more often. However, I have to admit that I have a good impression of Sun Lingling.

When I found Sun Lingling's number and called it back, the other party was really in a hurry to find me. There was an anxious tone in his voice, but he didn't say it over the phone. He repeatedly requested to see me immediately.

I was also curious about the other party's urgent matter. In addition, I couldn't sleep at all, so the moment I closed my eyes, I would be full of that little paper man. It would be better for me to go out and clear my head.
