The ghost appeared and disappeared just as quickly. After this incident, it likely wouldn’t dare to scare anyone again, much to the regret of the Taicang Sect’s employees. Commuters on the subway, having lost sight of the unidentified shadowy figure outside their windows, began to speculate. Some suggested frost from the cold weather, while others suggested it was simply track debris blown up by the train and berated those waiting for the train for their usual unsanitary behavior.
But someone also sensed something was amiss. She rubbed her arms nervously, then looking around, asked her companion, “Don’t you think this train is a little weird today? It’s usually packed, but it feels even more crowded today than before. It feels like it’s completely packed.”
Her companion didn’t take it seriously: “What nonsense are you imagining? There are already enough people here. Do you really think there’s a ghost on the train? Haha!”
The girl was bewildered after hearing this. She looked around in confusion at the people who were so crowded together that she was almost suffocating. She thought to herself, could it really be her illusion?
The train finally arrived at the station, and the passengers swarmed down the platform. A gust of wind came from nowhere and followed the crowd, blowing out from the carriage, making people grimace in cold.
The girl thought about it for a long time but still felt something was wrong: “I really think there was something strange in the carriage!”
Her friend was nearly shoved to death, while desperately trying to protect her high heels, which had nearly been stepped on and knocked off. She wiped her sweat and cried with tears welling up in her eyes, “Sister, please wake up and look at the people around us, okay? How could ghosts come to squeeze into the morning rush hour with us, a bunch of miserable office workers? Are they really that upset?”
At the same time, the ghost employees of Taicang Sect who were almost suffocating also stood on the platform with lingering fear and dull eyes.
“F**k, the morning rush hour in Beijing is too terrible.”
“I’ve been dead for over a decade and haven’t breathed, yet I felt like I was about to suffocate. I’ve regained my youth.”
“It’s really not easy to be alive. You have to be squeezed like this to go to work every day. Forget it, I won’t take the subway again until I am reincarnated.”
The demons from the Taicang Sect Brokerage Branch, who had listened to the entire rant from both the humans and the ghosts, said: “………………”
….
After Tuan Tuanyi came down, he seemed to have suffered a serious illness. Only Wei Xi was protected by Shuo Zong, and he was thus not affected by the crowd in the carriage throughout the rest of the journey.
The ghost employees around him were all talking about it——
“There are too many people on this subway. I think there are at least thousands of them. Even a ghost like me can’t stand it, so how can living people be so patient?”
A colleague who died relatively late and was familiar with the hardships of life explained, “They certainly wouldn’t like it, but Beijing’s housing and rent are so high that most ordinary people can only live in the suburbs. What else can they do if they can’t take the subway to work? The subway may be crowded, but at least there’s no traffic. Taking the bus or driving is not only crowded, but you might also get your salary deducted for being late.”
When the unfortunate employees heard this, they all looked sympathetic: “It’s really hard…”
Then they thought again, not only did their company provide dormitories, but the dormitories were also located in the city center of Beijing. There were large shopping malls around it that provided one-stop services, making travel convenient. They could also go wherever they wanted, and the treatment was a world apart from that of ordinary office workers. Then they couldn’t help but feel grateful.
“Our company’s employee benefits are really good.”
“Stop talking! The moment I got on the subway, I swore I would work in our company forever!”
Seeing the visibly improved cohesion among his employees, Wei Xi sighed to his second apprentice beside him, “Your senior brother is right. Team-building activities really can motivate employees. We should organize them more often in the future.”
The second disciple who put his hands in his pockets and looked at him: “………………”
Tuan Tuanyi suddenly woke up: “Master! That premonition of fatal disaster has come again!”
….
The Beijing National Forest Zoo was located in the suburbs of Beijing and covered a very large area. The demons in the team became excited from a distance, looking at the zoo wall vaguely visible in front of them. Their left eye said “Worship” and the right eye said “Holy Land”.
This was the unit they had been dreaming of applying for, but unfortunately they were all local breeds and their bloodline was not of good quality.
After entering the park, they spread out the exhibition area distribution map and sighed –
Weasel: “Oh, really, this meerkat is not prettier than me, so why can it stay in there?”
Pheasant Demon: “Humph, what’s so great about a peacock? It just has a longer tail. Can it fly as high as me?”
But who the demons envied the most was undoubtedly the pandas. The exhibition area of the panda house was not only large but also located in the very center of the zoo. It could be said to be the moon surrounded by stars, and the scenery was endless.
The demons were so jealous that their eyes turned red. This was the treatment given to national treasures. It was blatant corruption by officials!
Visitors to the park today were lucky enough to witness many bizarre scenes, such as a group of beautiful young men and women standing outside the panda exhibition hall, indignantly criticizing the pandas inside.
“Tsk, I don’t think it looks that good. Its belly is fat as a ball.”
“And look at it, it’s been lying there for ages, just busy eating bamboo. There are so many people watching and cheering for it, but it didn’t even bother to get up to say hello, thank everyone, or show off its talent.”
“That’s right, its professional qualities are not good enough.”
Tourists: “…”
The panda in the venue: “…”
The panda silently got up, turned its back to everyone, and continued lying down to eat bamboo, ignoring the group of companions who seemed to be here to disrupt the event.
The demons got even angrier when they saw this: “It’s acting like a big shot! It’s really been flattered!”
Panda:”……”
Where’s the housing manager? Can you clean it up?
These tourists here were just a little noisy and crazy at best, but the development in the South American Animal Pavilion was truly puzzling.
Several young girls stood in front of the viewing area for the prairie peccaries, quietly noting a lone young tourist standing nearby.
The young tourist had a somewhat dark skin, but was very handsome, with distinct facial features, a tall and strong build, and unruly hair standing up. He exuded an attractive wild charm and was truly a rare handsome guy in the crowd.
The girls blushed and their hearts beat fast. They were a little afraid to get close and shyly pushed each other: “Go ahead and see if you can get WeChat.”
“Go ahead, go ahead.”
Everyone pushed and shoved, but there was no result. The girls were too embarrassed to go forward, so they had to stay where they were and peek at the handsome guy. As they watched, they felt something was wrong——
“It’s been over half an hour, why hasn’t he left yet?”
Several visitors who had passed by this exhibition area earlier also noticed his striking appearance and whispered to each other, “Why is this guy still here? He was here when I first entered the park as well. It must have been over two hours, right?”
More than two hours?!
The girls were stunned. They had only been to the zoo for a quick tour, even spending only 20 minutes at the panda enclosure. Yet, this man had spent over two hours there! How bizarre!
So they looked at him more carefully and found that he was indeed very focused. His feet seemed to have taken root, and his deep eyes were staring at the exhibition area without blinking.
Is it… is it really that good looking?
Everyone couldn’t help but follow his gaze. Inside the exhibition area, the steppe peccary, which was said to have been introduced from the United States, was lazily basking in the sun, and its posture had not changed for a long time.
This… although it’s a little different, doesn’t it still look like an ordinary wild boar?
Everyone was puzzled, but the man in front of the exhibition area was watching intently. Whenever the steppe peccary occasionally shook its hooves, or smacked its lips and hummed, he would lean forward with a fiery look in his eyes.
The look was just like looking at a lover in love. The girls who saw it all blushed and their hearts beat fast. Even though the other person was not looking at them, they still felt very embarrassed.
The girls couldn’t help but speculate with pounding hearts that to be able to stay in an exhibition hall for two hours without leaving, this person must have a soft heart that was very different from his wild and unruly appearance.
The look they gave him at that moment became even more appreciative.
Here the wild boar demon was completely unaware of being surrounded by admiring gazes. His gaze only remained fixed on the steppe peccary basking in the sun in front of him, his eyes burning so hot that they seemed to be oozing magma.
What a round belly… What a thick, bristly mane… What a dark skin… What long hooves…
Ah! I really want to mate with it!
