Chapter 213
This was the first time that Ye Shaoyang and Xiao Ma had taken a plane, so they were nervous and sat extra straight in their seats . Both of them were extremely excited and looking forward to the flight .
As the plane took off, Ye Shaoyang couldn’t help but let out a little scream .
Tan Xiaohui looked at him, smiled and said, “Are you okay? Too excited?”
Ye Shaoyang frowned and said, “No, I think I’m going to vomit…”
“Oh, it’s normal for first-time flyers . You’ll get used to it after flying more often . ”
Flying more often . . . what about now? After holding it in for some time, Ye Shaoyang couldn’t hold it in anymore . He didn’t want to vomit in public, so he quickly rushed to the lavatory and didn’t come out for some time .
After two hours or so, the plane finally arrived at Sichuan Rong Cheng airport .
With the help of both Xiao Ma and Tan Xiaohui, Ye Shaoyang was able to get off the plane . He was now pale and weak . Tan Xiaohui giggled and said, “Never knew a great Heavenly Master like you could get airsick . ”
Xiao Ma added, “Well, he is still human . ”
Ye Shaoyang nodded and was about to agree with him, then Xiao Ma continued, “And all humans are horny and greedy . ”
Ye Shaoyang wanted to kick him but was too weak to even raise his leg .
After everyone left the airport, Yu Ting and Teng Yongqing parted and went on their way . Ye Shaoyang was going to ask where they were going but was too weak to even speak . The three of them got into a taxi and went to the hotel Zhou Jingru booked . It was a five-star hotel . The room had three rooms and a living room .
Ye Shaoyang had only seen this kind of luxury on TV . He was completely shocked by how luxurious and clean the place was . Everything was dust-free and squeaky clean . Ye Shaoyang was almost scared to sit down in fear he would dirty the sofa .
The three of them settled in and rested for a while . Then, they went to the balcony outside their room . Since they were staying on the thirty-eighth floor, they could see the whole city .
“I wonder how much this room costs for one night,” Xiao Ma asked .
“It’s best you don’t know . It might render you sleepless,” Tan Xiaohui giggled .
“How much? three hundred a night?”
Tan Xiaohui replied, “Try adding another zero . ”
Ye Shaoyang was shocked . He scratched his head and said, “Never knew there could be such expensive hotels . What a waste . ”
“Jingru said that we must have a good rest, so she insisted on this . Luckily, we’re only here for one night . ”
Their destination was not Rong Cheng but a small city hundreds of kilometers away . Since the nearest airport was Rong Cheng Airport, they could only come here and take a coach bus . Two coaches had been available, but since they had missed both, they had to go the next morning .
Initially, Zhou Jingru wanted to get them a driver and just send them there . However, Ye Shaoyang rejected the offer because he felt that it was unnecessary for her to spend so much money . He didn’t feel comfortable about it since it would not affect the outcome .
Ye Shaoyang rested for some time in his room . When he felt better, Xiao Ma and Tan Xiaohui dragged him out for food .
Since Rong Cheng was known for its food, they didn’t want to waste the opportunity . Especially since Tan Xiaohui was a foodie .
Within a few hours, the trio had gone all over Rong Cheng and tried all sorts of food . They followed an online guide and tried all sorts of food: Long Chao Shou, Dan Dan Noodle, Zong Dumpling, FuQi Feipian and much more . All of the foods were tasty and unique . That night, Tan Xiaohui even dragged them to try Sichuan Hotpot .
Because of all the different foods, and because the foods were oily, the three of them had to keep using the toilet .
When it was deep into the night, it started to rain . The rain continued through the next morning . When they were all packed up, it was still raining, so it was a good thing that the hotel provided a shuttle service to take them to the bus hub .
After they boarded the bus, it still continued to rain . The sky was grey, but the rain was not pouring hard . Xiao Ma was surprised, “This is so strange . It rains so long here . ”
“Southern China is very rainy . It often rains like this . People never know when it’ll stop or start,” Tan Xiaohui explained .
After half an hour, the rain became light and stopped . Even though the rain had stopped, it was still dark, so the driver had to turn on the headlights .
Ye Shaoyang opened the window to look outside . By then, they had already left the highway and were traveling on a small winding road on a mountain . Greenery was everywhere around them . There were few buildings and even fewer people .
As they crossed a bridge, he saw a large, flowing river, but something was odd . There was not only the sound of rushing water, but there was also another strange sound .
Ye Shaoyang tried to figure out what the sound was, but suddenly, the bus turned swiftly to the left . Ye Shaoyang looked toward the front . The bus was going into a turn and the bus driver was pressing the horn .
Then, Ye Shaoyang saw a white figure appear in front of the bus . The bus driver reacted fast and was able to brake and turn to miss the white figure . Then, they finally stopped three to four meters away from the cliff .
Everyone on the bus was frightened, and they complained that the driver was reckless .
The driver was a thirty-year-old man . He explained that he saw someone standing in the road, and because he didn’t want to hit the person, he had to brake suddenly and turn . The strange thing was that all the passengers who looked in front of the bus didn’t see anyone on the road .
In order to prove this, some of the passengers even got off the bus and checked under the bus . They even walked around, but there was no one there .
Everyone was still angry at the bus driver . The driver tried to explain himself but he couldn’t . Finally, they all got back on the bus . The driver began to drive again, but he drove slower this time .
“I saw the person the driver spoke about just now!” Tan Xiaohui whispered to Ye Shaoyang .
Ye Shaoyang nodded, “Me too . ”
“Was it a . . . spirit?”
“It was a spirit . I detected a hint of Spirit Qi, but there was something else too,” Ye Shaoyang sniffed and looked around with a soft voice, “Do you smell . . . Undead Qi?”
