Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 138 Little Gui

To be honest, although Lan's vow was deafening, Yunzhi could not think of anything else besides feeling...extraordinarily heavy-hearted.

Why are you suddenly bringing this up?

There's a little bit of... pressure.

This feeling lasted until I got back to the hotel and slept for one night...

The question of who to live for is truly a lot of stressful.

Lan slept very well, completely unaware of her wild words.

And today's destination, without a doubt, is Suiyuan.

The situation in Suiyuan is now somewhat complicated.

In order to arrest Suiyang, the Ten Kings' Office had two judges stationed inside. Oh, I heard there was also a probationary judge.

It's that fox-girl loli I saw at the Industrial Construction Bureau last time. That child even had a Suiyang on her tail—although that Suiyang was as quiet as a chicken in front of Lan.

But as my thoughts drifted, I couldn't help but think about what Lan had said yesterday.

—Actually, whether he dies or not isn't that scary for Yun Zhi. After all, he has died once before, but luckily transmigrated and was given a different way of living.

Over the years, he has known that many people hate him. Even if he fails to live up to his potential fate, he will die a worthy death—although he hopes he won't die too badly.

But what Lan said yesterday...

We really need to try our best to survive.

—Wait, what does it mean to try to live? I'm clearly living a good life.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Yunzhi tried very hard to get yesterday's memories out of her mind.

To reach Suiyuan, one must first pass through the cave in Jinren Lane and proceed via the Jinren Lane waterway.

Today should go smoothly.

Yunzhi had absolutely no awareness of the flag she had set for herself.

He felt that since the Ten Kings' Division was there, escorting one or two criminals was no big deal. Even if he saw it, he would just laugh it off as someone passing by.

After such a long and unpleasant experience in Luofu, we've finally found a normal place to visit.

Yunzhi was very happy.

Lan's expression remained unchanged.

—He had a bad feeling.

That place seems a bit dangerous.

------------------

The Jinren Alley, which has become incredibly popular, is now bustling with people, and mechanical birds are delivering goods back and forth in the air, creating a thriving scene.

—As expected, we still have to rely on outsiders to boost the economy. But is this really something that outsiders should see?

Even if the Star Train and the Immortal Ship are on good terms now, the most important thing is, who would want to let others see their family's messy affairs? It would only make them a laughing stock.

And Suiyuan...

How should I put it? It's a haunted house, after all.

A place that looks like a haunted house.

Of course, haunted houses are a type of place...

It's actually quite appealing, isn't it?

Yunzhi and Lan had just arrived at the dock leading to Suiyuan, preparing to board the starship and fly directly to their destination...

A young girl suddenly appeared next to me, holding a phone and live-streaming.

"...Family members, if you're curious about what happened at Suiyuan, you can come find me at Xingcha Wharf in Jinren Lane! Little Guizi will be waiting for you there, see you then!"

When Yunzhi heard her live stream, her lines were almost finished. She saw Yunzhi put down her live stream equipment and was typing on her phone, which made her a little curious.

—It seems she knows Suiyuan quite well?

"girl."

Yun Zhi floated up behind her and asked, "Were you talking about Suiyuan just now?"

The red-haired, energetic-looking girl immediately looked up: "Yes, family, did you come to see Xiao Guizi because you're curious about paranormal events?"

Yunzhi: No, I was just going there for fun.

But judging from what this little girl said, there are supernatural events in Suiyuan?

Did you run into Suiyang?

Lan silently pulled up the hood of her clothes.

—Although there's no need to hide in the league, it's really troublesome if you get recognized, and then you won't be able to have fun.

"Suiyuan Garden was indeed abandoned for quite some time, but paranormal events?" Yun Zhi tilted her head. "Doesn't that sound like a publicity stunt?"

The red-haired girl replied, "Of course not! I have video proof! Look, family!"

She handed over the phone.

Inside is a screen recording of the live stream, right?

On the left are fan comments scrolling by, on the right is a small QR code, and there's also a running chicken...

What is that chicken?

Yunzhi's attention shifted to the video.

"Family members, I, Xiao Gui Zi, am currently in the most terrifying and haunted place in Luofu—Suiyuan!"

The camera then shifts to show a scene from Suiyuan Garden.

Yun's brow twitched.

It really does look a bit eerie.

Another girl appeared behind Xiao Guizi.

Yun was stunned:

"Oh my, isn't this Su Chang? You two know each other?"

The red-haired girl in front of me nodded: "Yes, we're good friends! Do you know Su Chang's family too?"

"......know."

Lan Ta is from the same hometown.

Then, the girls' screams came from the phone, and then... a distant voice:

"—I died a terrible death..."

The sound was long and lingering, cool yet intense, with bluish-green flames floating back and forth within it.

It looks really familiar.

Yunzhi: ......

Lan: ......

Which of you is so bored?

Yun Zhi continued to smile: "How interesting. Are you planning to organize an exploration team? How about adding the two of us? We're quite experienced in dealing with those guys."

He pulled Lan over from the side.

Lan nodded reservedly.

"Great, great! I can tell you two are in this line of work!"

Xiao Guizi was very excited and continued to fiddle with her phone: "Wait a moment, I've found another family member. Please wait here for me for a while."

"OK."

Yun doesn't mind.

Speaking of which, did you find someone else?

Xiao Guizi didn't seem to recognize Di Gong Siming's appearance.

This is not surprising, although Emperor Gong appeared in Jinren Alley and gave many speeches at that time, but only in Jinren Alley.

A question posed indirectly by Yun.

Xiao Guizi happened to be doing a live broadcast elsewhere that day.

Although some videos circulated on the Luofu Forum, Liu Yu promptly deleted a lot of them at Lan's behest.

This is what they call high technology, right? Information transmission isn't exactly fast.

------------------

A short while later, a gray raccoon came running from the other end of Jinren Alley.

Little Gui Zi—Gui Naifen waved excitedly: "Hi, over here!"

Yunzhi: Smiling.

Sure enough, it's a star.

How so?

That's exactly what I expected.

After all, aren't pioneers meant to explore the unknown?
