"What's wrong, strong woman, are you scared?" Ji Chenling asked jokingly.
Bai Xi heard Ji Chenling's ridicule, pursed her lips, and looked straight at Ji Chenling.
Ji Chenling was really hateful sometimes. He knew she was afraid of ghosts, so he told her ghost stories on this eerie hillside without any lights.
"Mr. Ji, do you have a girlfriend?" Bai Xi asked provocatively,
Ji Chenling paused, looking down at her stubborn little face, "What's wrong?"
Bai Xi raised a smile and said, "Being your girlfriend is definitely not an ordinary person. I need to have a cold-resistant physique, a Buddha's character, and be gentle, considerate, tolerant, and not afraid of ghosts."
Ji Chenling looked at her vivid appearance and remembered their first meeting.
It was the first day of school. His driver took him to school. When he got out of the car, he attracted a lot of sideways glances from his classmates, but no one dared to approach him.
Carrying a backpack, she walked towards him and asked with a smile: "Classmate, do you know where to go to the Cultural and Education Building?"
At that time, he was rebellious at heart and was in a bad mood because of certain things, so he casually pointed her in a direction and said in detail: "You follow this road to the end, turn right to the end, and you'll be there."
She was naive and actually walked in the direction he pointed. As a result, she was late for class on the first day and turned back to glare at him.
After the first class, she walked up to him with the same smiling face and asked, "Do you have a girlfriend?"
He still remembered that his heartbeat suddenly beat very fast at that time, and then he heard her smile and say: "I think it is difficult to find you. How can you be such a bully? My girlfriends have bullied me away."
That day, he couldn't sleep, and all the girlfriends she mentioned were bullied away. He had a feeling that she was his girlfriend, and then he really bullied her away.
Return to reality
"Is this how you treat your boss?" Ji Chenling asked in a deep voice.
In an instant, Bai Xi was frightened, and the little temper he had just generated was completely worn away, "Who asked you to scare me first?"
"I'm not scaring you." Ji Chenling looked behind her, "She is standing behind you now."
Bai Xi looked behind him in fright, but there was nothing there.
She realized that she had been deceived by Ji Chenling, and looked at him angrily, "Is it fun to play tricks on me?"
"If you're afraid, just stay in the car." Ji Chenling said and continued up the mountain.
She promised to do her best, even if there was really a ghost, she would follow her boss even more.
They climbed for about twenty minutes and reached the top of the mountain.
Ji Chenling looked into the distance.
Bai Xi followed his line of sight and saw that it was pitch black in front of him and he couldn't see anything.
"What are you looking at?" Bai Xi asked curiously.
"Haitang Village."
"Ha. It's night now, the moon is dark and the wind is high. What can you see?" Bai Xi felt funny.
"Didn't you listen to what I said, that ghost is silver-white and glowing all over? Of course you have to look at it." Ji Chenling replied.
Bai Xi couldn't help but rolled his eyes and looked away. A man appeared one meter behind them. Bai Xi was really frightened this time.
"Ji Chenling." She held his arm without thinking.
When Ji Chenling saw the person coming, he frowned and said displeased: "You scared her."
"I'm the security guard here. It's so late, what are you doing here?" the security guard asked suspiciously.
"What am I doing here? Do I need to report to you?" Ji Chenling said coldly.
The security guard got angry and said rudely: "This is not a place for you to fight in the jungle. Leave quickly."
"What jungle? Do you think we brought shotguns or bows and arrows?" Ji Chenling said righteously.
Bai Xi understood what the security guard meant by playing in the jungle, blushed, and pulled Ji Chenling away.
"What are you afraid of?" Ji Chenling held her hand instead, "You can come and go freely here."
"One more thing is worse than one less thing. Anyway, we can't see anything at night. Let's come back tomorrow." Bai Xi said in a good voice.
Ji Chenling listened to her soft tone and was quickly soothed, "Just watch the road."
Bai Xi saw that she was still being held by him and it was inappropriate, so she wanted to pull out.
He looked at her and said, "Don't move. The road down the mountain is more difficult than the road up. If you fall, you still need me to carry you."
"I won't fall." Bai Xi said firmly.
"Would you like to hear another legend about Haitang Village?"
"Huh?" Bai Xi's thoughts were successfully diverted by Ji Chenling.
Ji Chenling led her away and said: "Haitang Village was once the most famous village within a hundred miles, covering an area of 4.26 square kilometers."
"4.26 square kilometers, that's huge. Not even a brigade has 4.26 square kilometers."
"There are temples, shops, doctors, tailors, and some wealthy families in this village. They mainly grow medicinal materials, tea, and do business. Later, people in the village were infected with the plague, and the whole village died. The place was also sealed off because of the plague.
Because it was so remote and separated by mountains, it was not discovered until 1962."
"How can we do business in such a remote area and separated by mountains? It's too laborious to climb mountains and ridges. At that time, there weren't steps to climb like there are now?" Bai Xi asked.
"The mountains here have the appearance of fault zones. That is to say, a long time ago, this place was not surrounded by mountains. Relatively speaking, the roads were still very smooth. Not only that, the Posuo River passed through here. Whether they were transported by land or river,
It's all smooth. It's just a crustal movement that blocked this place. It also brought the plague." Ji Chenling explained.
"I think this legend is much more reliable than the first one."
Ji Chenling's eyes were a little helpless. He held her hand a little tighter and said meaningfully: "You are really a coward."
His tone sounded very doting and gentle.
Bai Xi became embarrassed, took out his hand, and brushed the hair from his forehead, "Are you planning to develop this place?"
"I have this plan, so I will come to inspect this time." Ji Chenling said solemnly, not shaking her hand again, but slowing down.
Suddenly, he understood what the security guard meant by jungle. "You are often misunderstood and don't explain?"
Bai Xi smiled slightly, "Those who believe in me, even if I don't say it, will know that I have been framed. People who don't believe me, even if I say nothing, will not believe it."
"Then tell the facts and present evidence so that those who don't believe you have to believe it. Those who are doubtful will stand by your side, and you won't give those villains a chance to be proud." Ji Chenling said solemnly.
Five years ago, Qi Feng knew that she was drugged. His father also knew that Bai Yichu was pregnant with Qi Feng's child and betrayed her in front of her. Qi Feng even knew that Bai Yichu fell down the stairs by himself.
They sacrificed her for their own interests and feelings.
"I don't care, just stay away from them."
"It turns out that you are the extraordinary person. Not only are you resistant to cold and heat, but you also have a Buddhist character, gentle, considerate, kind, tolerant, and patient, and you are not afraid of ghosts." Ji Chenling said with hatred.
