Chapter 1: The Ghost Train
When the clock struck midnight twelve, Fang Rui began to regret why he didn't work hard to go back to school to get his luggage, but he had to be lazy and follow Bai Jingjing to take a free car?
There were still a lot of people on the platform at midnight, but if you look closely, you will find that some of these people are missing arms and legs, some of their heads are covered with blood, and some of them seem to have been squeezed into a lump of flesh, and they can't tell which is the head and which is the body.

"What kind of train is this?" Fang Rui asked Bai Jingjing, who was calm beside him.
"The ghost train is specially for some ghosts and some monsters and elves who don't want to die in a foreign country and have to return to their roots. The bottom line is, it's free. Bai Jingjing patted Fang Rui's shoulder and said earnestly, "Young people still have too little experience, don't make such a fuss." ”
The white eyes in Fang Rui's heart were about to turn to the sky, there was really no free lunch in this world, and it was not easy to take the train with these things that seemed to make people unable to eat for three days.
After being forcibly dragged onto the train by Bai Jingjing, they came to the train car, and the ghosts who came up together all followed the order and found vacant seats one by one. After a car was full, the door of the back car was opened, and a new car gradually emerged on the track that had been empty. Fang Rui and Bai Jingjing followed the ghosts into the next carriage and each found a place to sit down.
"This train automatically adjusts the number of carriages according to the number of ghosts coming in, so it is absolutely guaranteed that everyone who comes up will have a seat!" Bai Jingjing sat down and explained softly to Fang Rui.
"I'm not a ghost or a monster, are you sure you can take this train too?" Fang Rui was still very uneasy.
"You have a 'bastard', so you can't be considered a person in the strict sense!" Bai Jingjing smiled and took out a packet of potato chips from her bag, Fang Rui really admired that this monster wallet could not take potato chips but carried it with him, and there was more than one pack.
Fang Rui temporarily relaxed his mind and began to look around, this ghost train was no different from an ordinary green train in appearance, but the passengers were a little weirder. For example, the two creatures sitting opposite Fang Rui, one is a middle-aged uncle who looks no different from a normal person, and the other is the Shamat clan who is blooming by the head at first glance, there is still red blood and yellow brains on the already red and yellow dyed hair, and the top of the right temple is still cracked, and the brains inside are clearly visible, and the eyes are bloody and tearful. But this guy actually opened his mouth and smiled at Fang Rui, the blood in his mouth made him look more like a clown image in a horror movie.
Belch~~! Fang Rui felt disgusted in his heart, but he couldn't help but lower his head, and if he looked at it again, he estimated that he would vomit out yesterday's dinner. Bai Jingjing on the side was still chewing on the potato chips heartlessly, and even handed the potato chips to the two creatures opposite in a friendly way and asked them if they wanted to eat them.
Can you still eat it after all this? Sure enough, Shamat, whose head was blooming, rejected Bai Jingjing's kindness, but the middle-aged uncle on the side smiled and took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Bai Jingjing immediately started talking to him, and after dancing the square dance set, the monster in the mouth of the middle-aged aunt was fully fired, and it didn't take long for the middle-aged uncle and the head of Shamat next to him to be able to get a clear picture.
The middle-aged uncle's name is Ying Guang, non-human, and he is a yin person in the Peach Blossom Garden. This peach blossom source is Tao Yuanming's peach blossom source, but it is not a paradise, it is indeed a gray area between the underworld and the human world, a gathering place for some dead and unwilling to reincarnate. For some reason, the human ghosts living there can combine and give birth to offspring, but these offspring are somewhat different from the ghost body and are collectively referred to as Yin people. Yin people can leave the Peach Blossom Spring, so Ying Guang came to the human world to experience human life and then took the ghost train home.
Shamat, whose head is blooming, is called Zhao Hongfeng, a post-90s Internet addict, because he made a girlfriend on the Internet, he came all the way to give his girlfriend a big surprise, but he didn't expect to come here instead of seeing the imaginary goddess, he found that the so-called girlfriend was still a man. In a fit of rage, he felt deceived and fought with his 'girlfriend', the other party was not only a man, but also a powerful man, and his subordinates did not control a brick and knocked him on the head, and he was killed on the spot. Zhao Hongfeng, who was destined to return to Huangquan, only discovered his unfilial piety after his death, and thought about how to go home to see his parents, so he also took this ghost train.
In general, whether it is Ying Guang, Zhao Hongfeng, Fang Rui, or Bai Jingjing, the four of them are all going home, and they have the same goal. Zhao Hongfeng looks terrifying, but he is used to watching it. After all, there were four or five ghosts he had seen, and Fang Rui quickly adapted to Zhao Hongfeng, and even chatted with him for a few words. The way home was still quite long, Bai Jingjing even suggested that the four of them should not play cards, Ying Guang cooperated and took out two cards from his luggage, so for the first time in his life, Fang Rui played cards with a white bone spirit, a ghost, and a yin person.
After only three rounds, Fang Rui was a little sleepy, after all, he still needed to sleep. Bai Jingjing, who felt disillusioned, pouted and complained for a long time before she had to agree to Fang Rui's request to sleep. Closing his eyes and leaning against the car window, Fang Rui quickly fell asleep while shaking.
In his sleep, Fang Rui returned to the mountain, and a pair of Qing Dynasty soldiers still meandered up the mountain road, but this time Fang Rui saw clearly that there were countless human heads and corpses on the carriage they carried, as well as the shaman wearing a strange mask in the team, what shocked Fang Rui was that this shaman's hairstyle was not the kind of bald head in front and pigtail braid behind the Qing Dynasty people, but a short flat head, only a small braid with the thickness of a thumb at the back of the neck all the way to the waist. Isn't this the same hairstyle that the mysterious man has?
The shaman who was riding on a tall horse seemed to sense Fang Rui in the air, and actually raised his head slightly to look at Fang Rui and slowly took off his mask, under the mask was a surprising face, half handsome and half black skeleton with metallic luster, especially the red eyeball in the eye socket of half of the skeleton.
Yes! Fang Rui, who was so frightened that he screamed, woke up from his sleep only to realize that it was just a dream, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead Fang Rui found that Bai Jingjing and Ying Guang beside him were sleeping, only Zhao Hongfeng looked out of the car window with a sad face, it is estimated that the ghost does not need to sleep.
I glanced down at my watch and found that it had stopped, and it seemed that the time could not be recognized in this ghost train. Sitting up a little straight, Fang Rui was completely sleepy at this time, so he could only look around boredly, but he saw an acquaintance, the fox spirit Hu Yue'e in the school and her lover, the old woman. However, the old woman's figure looks a little transparent, and it doesn't seem to be a physical entity.
Hu Yue'e also seemed to notice Fang Rui's gaze, and a kind smile appeared on her face, and she nodded slightly. Fang Rui immediately nodded slightly, which was regarded as a greeting. Looking around, only a small half of the carriage was full, and the second half of the carriage was empty. Opposite Hu Yue'e and the old woman were two ponytailed girls with a pair of dog ears, but because they were facing away from Fang Rui, he couldn't see their looks.
Facing Fang Rui across the aisle from Hu Yue'e was a mother and son, who looked like nothing unusual except that their faces were a little pale. It seemed that the two children were facing away from Fang Rui, because Fang Rui could only see the two backs of his head slightly.
Across the aisle from Fang Rui and them was the aunt foursome, but these four middle-aged women were all missing arms and legs, and there were wounds on their heads, revealing the white bones inside.
After looking at all the creatures in the carriage, Fang Rui began to feel a little sleepy again, leaned his head against the window again, and prepared to continue sleeping. Unfortunately, before he slept for two or three minutes, his stomach began to growl. It seems that the small bowl of noodles eaten for dinner in order to save money is really not hungry, Fang Rui, who is very helpless, can only reopen his eyes and take down the bag on the luggage rack, take out a loaf of bread from it, and then open the bag, and the four aunts next door looked at Fang Rui together, staring at the bread with an expectant expression.
"This... Do you want to eat too? Fang Rui was very embarrassed, so he could only ask politely.
"Alas, young man, you can eat it yourself, we are all dead, and now we can't eat if we want to, just take a look." The aunt with a towering bun sighed.
"Yes, young man, leave us alone, eat, eat, let's see!" The curly-haired aunt next to her immediately continued to persuade.
"Ouch, if it weren't for that damn tourist bus that overturned in the mountains, the four of us might still be eating and drinking spicy somewhere!" The short-haired aunt on the opposite side complained.
"Death is dead, what are you complaining about, it's all fate!" The aunt who also had short hair but red hair on the side glanced at the short-haired aunt with disdain and said, "Fortunately, the sisters can't be born on the same day and month of the same year, and they can be regarded as dying together on the same day and month of the same year. ”
"That's it, don't you say it, don't let the young man eat?" The big bun aunt patted the short hair aunt's shoulder, and then looked at Fang Rui expectantly, "You eat, we still want to see others eat." ”
The corners of Fang Rui's mouth twitched, please let the four ghost aunts with such a bad image stare at themselves! Looking at the bread that had been opened, Fang Rui felt that he couldn't bite it.
"If you don't eat it, I'll eat it!" Bai Jingjing didn't know when she had woken up, she snatched the bread and took a bite of it, and looked at Fang Rui and the four ghost aunts very proudly.
"Do you want to eat?" Suddenly, Hu Yue'e walked over with a bag of things and asked the four ghost aunts, and at the same time opened the package, which turned out to be a big white steamed bun with a small red dot on it.
As soon as the four ghost aunts saw these steamed buns, even saliva flowed out, and their eyes lit up, and they almost pounced on them.
"These are all steamed buns for the deceased, I made some more for you to taste!" Hu Yue'e smiled and put the steamed buns on the table of the four ghost aunts, but they were not polite at all, and they picked up the steamed buns and stuffed them into their mouths.
"You're so kind." Bai Jingjing looked at the steamed bun and then at the old woman who was still sitting in the position, Hu Yue'e looked back at the old woman affectionately before turning her head to Bai Jingjing and said, "I just envy that they can die together." ”
Bai Jingjing and Fang Rui didn't answer, the love between Hu Yue'e and the old woman was not accepted by the fox demon clan, but for the two people living in the human world, this was actually not a big deal, love had nothing to do with gender and race.
Fang Rui felt that the atmosphere was a little sad, and hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"I'll take her back to Fox Village, our fox demon clan is going to enter the ancestral hall in the end, otherwise how can we be reincarnated?" Hu Yue'e replied.
Bai Jingjing didn't speak, but lowered her head and took a bite of bread, she didn't say that in fact, she had also met a pair of same-sex monsters who loved each other before, but unfortunately these two monsters were not only not accepted by the clan after death, but even did not even enter the ancestral hall after death, and really became lonely ghosts.
After giving the steamed buns, Hu Yue'e didn't talk much and returned to her position to accompany her lover, Fang Rui looked at Bai Jingjing with a heavy face and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Bai Jingjing whispered: "That old woman, maybe she can't enter the ancestral hall." The demon clan has a lot of rules. ”
"Why are you so particular about all the deaths?" Fang Rui frowned, even if he was no longer accepted when he was alive, why bother now that he was dead?
Bai Jingjing silently put down the bread in her hand, she remembered her parents, although the demon clan is much more capable than humans, and the rules are much greater, sometimes she wishes that she was a human and would not have so many worries.
Seeing that Bai Jingjing stopped talking, Fang Rui didn't speak anymore, and also sat back in his position silently, touching it by the way, still gurgling his stomach. The four ghost aunts next to them ate very deliciously, it may be that they haven't eaten since they died, and this time they can eat again, which moved them to tears, but the appearance of the four ugly ghosts who died together and whined and cried is really a bit infiltrating.
When the four ghost aunts swallowed the last bite of steamed buns and made a big burp, the carriage door was suddenly kicked open, and two masked men with machine guns shouted at the ghosts and monsters in the carriage: "Don't move, rob!" ”
