Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 139 Suiyuan

Xing is indeed curious.

A text message suddenly popped up on my phone, saying something like... "A young girl accidentally wandered into an abandoned garden, where she encountered wandering ghosts and was in grave danger."

Then, for more firsthand information on ghost stories, please follow Gui Naifen's channel.

At first, Xing thought it was just a gimmick.

However, the streamer's words didn't seem fake, and the other party extended the invitation very enthusiastically.

Hmm, I guess I should go take a look.

Of course, no matter what she thought, Xing was determined that no matter how eloquently she spoke, she would never spend even fifty credits on this trip.

—Besides, I don't have much spare money in my pocket.

Then she came.

Then, she met two acquaintances.

...the consciousness of an acquaintance, a relatively familiar god...

"Star, you're here too."

One of the parents on the Starry Sky Train greeted her with a smile.

Xing nodded.

His gaze drifted to Lan behind Yun Zhi.

—I couldn't help it, I simply couldn't help it.

You can skip the others, but you really should watch more of Star God.

Although we will likely see it frequently in the future?

Well, if it were really common to see them, Mr. Walter and Ms. Himeko would probably see them quite often.

Gui Naifen looked at the stars, then at her two teammates behind her.

"You two know each other?"

Xing nodded: "I know him...don't you know him?"

Is there anyone in Luofu who doesn't recognize Emperor Bow Master and Soaring Wind White Feather True Lord?

This is so unreasonable!

Gui Naifen didn't understand Xing's expression: "Huh? I've been in seclusion for training recently, and after I came out I went to Suiyuan to take a look... I didn't notice."

Although Su Chang did tell her that some important figures had recently arrived on the Immortal Boat, Gui Naifen believed that she was just a foreigner and that important figures had nothing to do with her, an insignificant person.

Su Chang was very nervous about the arrival of the important person.

However, they didn't say who the important person was, which made Gui Naifen imagine for a while, but she forgot about it when she went to do the live broadcast later.

Xing didn't continue the conversation, but silently turned her head and said, "Didn't we say we were going to explore Suiyuan? Let's go."

Once you get there, you'll know what true security feels like.

Gui Naifen was confused, but she still excitedly jumped into the Star Raft with him.

Yunzhi pulled Lan along as they entered the star raft.

Soon, the starship set sail, heading towards the Ghost Cave that had terrified Gui Naifen and Su Chang.

————————————————————

No matter what outsiders say, to truly understand a place, you really have to experience it firsthand.

The group arrived at Suiyuan.

Yunzhi raised her head and looked at the scenery of Suiyuan.

The scenery is beautiful, with deep bamboo groves, pavilions and towers, all quiet and peaceful. This garden was once created by skilled fox-people. Since the Great War of Fengraomin thirty years ago, the fox-people have come here to mourn their fallen comrades. Now, only desolation remains of the once beautiful garden.

A cold wind blew across the lotus pond, and some bluish-gold will-o'-the-wisps flashed by.

Did those people consider this place their home?

Lan felt the warmth of the sun from all directions, remaining silent.

—This thing called Suiyang is an old rival of His, having fought before He ascended to godhood. Now, given the current situation, He wonders if He should stand here and threaten to drive these little things away.

After all, these fragments of the sun are naturally no match for the original Emperor Sui, who was the most powerful aggregate.

If Lan were to make a move here, it would be a waste of her talents.

After all, we can't expect Lan to unleash his star-destroying power just to kill a chicken, can we?

"It was pitch black all around, and I had a feeling that someone was watching us."

Gui Naifen's slightly trembling voice came through.

—They were definitely watching them; those Suiyang were probably observing their old enemy Lan and Yunzhi himself.

Xing asked Gui Naifen where the rumors about Suiyuan being haunted came from. Gui Naifen pulled out the video script and read her a passage from Baidu Baike (Chinese Wikipedia)...

It was still paid to have Mr. west Yan write it.

Mr. Xiyan was the storyteller who recklessly spread the story that "the True Lord of the Startling Wind and White Feathers was originally a woman".

Upon hearing this name, Yunzhi couldn't help but turn pale.

"While the ghost stories might be false, it's true that the Ten Kings' Court sent people here." Gui Naifen said, her fear mixed with excitement. "Speaking of which, if there's any disturbance ahead, we'd better take a detour. Even if we run into a ghost, if we see the judge of the underworld, we'll definitely be kicked out!"

In that case, they won't be able to do anything, and their trip will have been in vain.

Of course, such a thing doesn't actually exist.

"Don't worry, the judge won't drive us away."

Yun Zhi rubbed his neck: "Haunted things are just nonsense."

"Huh?" Gui Naifen looked puzzled.

Hoshino asked, "So, what exactly is in here?"

"It's just something meaningless."

Another voice came from the other side, startling Gui Naifen so much that she almost jumped behind Xing.

Lan had somehow ended up standing by the bridge, staring intently at a tiny ball of spirit fire.

A wisp of flame flickered within his golden eyes.

The small flame seemed to tremble for a moment before disappearing instantly.

Gui Naifen remembered this thing: "This is the ghost we encountered back then, but the one we saw seemed to be bigger."

"The aggregated Suiyang is indeed enormous." Lan stood up and walked back. "The Suiyang is an old rival of the Immortal Ship people."

"Suiyang? I think I've heard of it... Let me look it up..."

Gui Naifen picked up her phone and started searching for information.

Yunzhi's gaze drifted towards the location of the ball of spiritual fire from before.

—Did that Suiyang have something to say just now?
