Chapter 84: Thugs

~8 min read 1,540 words

In the dark carriage, Lin Lin Xian looked at the radio in his hand, his face full of solemnity.

He tried adjusting the frequency band, but the result remained the same; no matter how he adjusted it, the frequency band would return to 1542.

Lin Lin Xian was somewhat panicked. He had clearly seen through this ghost thing's fear invasion—it was just a disturbance of mental emotions—but he didn't know how to escape this place.

Cold wind blew through the carriage, and the chill was desolate.

Lin Lin Xian's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

That's not right.

I remember I turned on the lights when I picked up the silver antenna earlier...

He then activated his Mechanical Heart, *clang*, and turned on the train's entire lighting system.

And this time, the light was perfectly normal; it wasn't swallowed by darkness, nor did it flicker eerily.

*Click. *

But strangely, only a few seconds later, the lights were turned off again.

Lin Lin Xian looked at the control panel at the end of the carriage in surprise.

"Who turned off the lights?"

The "Infinite" lighting system had no problems. Lin Lin Xian felt that this had been turned off manually, which looked very eerie.

He suddenly thought of a possibility, so he activated his Mechanical Heart and started the heating system in Carriage No. 1.

The carriage was cold.

But on the other side, Chen Chen Sixuan felt a wave of warm air.

"It's Lin Lin Xian!"

Chen Chen Sixuan realized this. She didn't hesitate at all and decisively turned off the heating system again.

At this moment, Lin Lin Xian stood up from the sofa with a *whoosh*.

"Saving electricity like this... it's definitely Chen Chen Laoshi!"

Lin Lin Xian widened his eyes and picked up the radio, looking surprised. "So I really am trapped in a frequency band!"

As for why he was trapped in the 1542 radio frequency, Lin Lin Xian had no time to think about it. He was thinking about how to get out.

"Frequency band..."

"Yes, frequency band!"

"The Phoenix Society has a lot of important information on the LW01 long-wave frequency band, while we drifters now mainly use the AM07 and 09 frequency bands..."

Lin Lin Xian's pupils constricted; he realized it now.

He was in an eerie frequency band, so no matter how he adjusted it here, this radio would definitely always show 1542.

"If we follow this logic, then perhaps if the frequency band outside is adjusted to a frequency that isn't 1542, I might be able to adjust accordingly here, and then there might be a chance to get out of here, right?"

Lin Lin Xian looked at the radio in his hand and frowned again. "But it seems I can't adjust it either."

"Right."

He remembered something and picked up the silver antenna in his hand. "Almost forgot, there's this thing."

But at this moment, Lin Lin Xian hesitated.

If he put this thing back, would the terrifying scene appear again?

"So what if it appears? It's all fake."

Lin Lin Xian's expression darkened. He gritted his teeth and plugged the silver antenna back in. Sure enough, the moment the silver antenna touched the radio, a red ghost shadow suddenly appeared out of thin air in the depths of the corridor ahead, standing there eerily.

The red-clothed female ghost stood motionless, her pale face in the shadows wearing an eerie smile.

"What are you looking at?! Tell me how to get out!"

He didn't know where the anger came from, but at this moment, Lin Lin Xian's anxious mindset completely overwhelmed the fear.

He suddenly shouted, which made the red-clothed female ghost freeze.

The female ghost's eyes flashed with anger. In an instant, she teleported before Lin Lin Xian, raised her bloody claws, and tore at Lin Lin Xian's neck!

*Clang! *

Lin Lin Xian's gaze was cold. With a slash of his blade, the female ghost's head flew off directly and fell to the ground with a *thump-thump-thump*.

"Still trying to scare me."

The air quieted down. The red-clothed female ghost's head rolled to the corner on the ground, its gaze looking at Lin Lin Xian maliciously, while her headless corpse still stood in place, raising its bloody claws.

Lin Lin Xian knew these were all illusions, so he simply ignored them. After plugging in the silver antenna and turning the knob, he found that the frequency numbers on it had indeed changed.

"As expected!"

His guess earlier should have been correct. The main body of this eerie radio station was definitely this silver antenna, which could swallow people into some kind of frequency.

So if he wanted to get out, he likely needed someone outside to adjust to the same frequency as him—a frequency that was the same but not 1542.

Thinking this through, Lin Lin Xian felt a sense of clarity in his heart.

"Then how can I let Chen Chen Laoshi and I adjust to the same frequency?"

*Gurgle~*

The red-clothed female ghost's head rolled quietly to Lin Lin Xian's feet. Lin Lin Xian lowered his head and saw the female ghost staring at him with a sinister gaze.

"Damn it, are you annoying..."

Lin Lin Xian kicked it away, feeling irritable in his heart. He looked at the headless female corpse before him; although he knew it was fake, having this thing standing eerily beside him still made one's hair stand on end.

!

Lin Lin Xian's heart moved. He suddenly reached out and grabbed the red-clothed female ghost's dress. *Rip! * He tore it directly.

After the red-clothed female ghost's dress was torn, it revealed a well-proportioned female body, still wearing a red bikini.

"So female ghosts also wear bikinis..."

Except for being somewhat skinny...

The female ghost's head on the ground rolled to the side. At this moment, the sinister gaze suddenly became terrified, and as the female ghost's clothes were torn, the terrifying feeling vanished instantly.

Instead, it became somewhat lively, and the sinister chill also vanished instantly. Lin Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief, pointed at the female ghost's head, and threatened:

"Don't bother me again, or I'll strip you completely!"

*Hum~*

On the other side, the sound of car engines approached from near and far outside the "Infinite." In the mountains and forests, it seemed a large convoy was approaching the train.

"Chen Jiejie, there are more and more of them!"

Through the walkie-talkie, Lou Shasha said angrily, "It looks like they've targeted us today!"

Chen Chen Sixuan frowned. "No choice, you guys keep watching. Lin Lin Xian seems to have some movement here."

For her, the top priority was to help Lin Lin Xian solve his predicament. She had finally heard Lin Lin Xian's movement, so all her attention was now focused on Carriage No. 1.

*Da-da-da! *

As soon as the words on the walkie-talkie finished, the tail carriage suddenly exchanged fire. It seemed that over a dozen cars had driven over, preparing to surround the train.

Lou Shasha and Gao Ta immediately opened fire in retaliation, and at the same time, quite a few zombies also ran rapidly from the snowfield toward this side.

A gale blew outside the train, and a snowstorm arrived!

A sound of *thump-thump-thump* suddenly rang out on the roof of the train; it seemed someone had climbed onto the train!

"Chen Jiejie, ahead!"

Lou Shasha realized something at this moment and immediately picked up the walkie-talkie to shout to Chen Chen Sixuan in Carriage No. 1.

Chen Chen Sixuan realized this and immediately ran toward the driver's cabin, preparing to close the door to the driver's cabin corridor first so that the outside world couldn't probe the internal scene.

If the people outside found out there were only three of them on the train, things might get out of control.

*Thump-thump-thump! *

The sound ran from the tail of the train to the head at extreme speed. Every carriage poked its head out from the gaps to probe with flashlights, and then it drilled to the train head. Before Chen Chen Sixuan could run to the driver's cabin, a face with a strange smile suddenly hung down from the windshield and shone a high-power light inside.

The person had insect-like limbs resembling a scorpion tail. Chen Chen Sixuan took one look, her expression changed drastically. An ability user!

The person shone the flashlight on Chen Chen Sixuan, his eyes glowing, and he let out a strange cry:

"Haha! So there are only three people in total, and two little beauties!!"

After saying this, he immediately jumped off the train agilely and ran toward the distant convoy.

"Oh no." Chen Chen Sixuan thought to herself, and immediately picked up the walkie-talkie. "Lou Shasha, there's an ability user who saw us and ran toward the back!"

In Carriage No. 5, Lou Shasha's small face darkened. She turned around, picked up her gun, and called Gao Ta. "Brother, hurry and take that guy out!"
