Siheyuan: Steel Mill Driver

After returning to the guesthouse, Li Feng lay on the bed and looked at the harvest of the past two hours, feeling very happy.

His harvest this time included not only the ginseng he had bought before, but he also bought some deer antlers, ganoderma lucidum, grain, pork, mountain products, game, and the various tickets he had wanted to buy before.

This time he spent more than two thousand yuan in total. What made him most regretful was that he saw a tiger skin, but unfortunately he couldn't afford it!

Li Feng came back to his senses and felt a chill around him. He looked up and saw that the room was already full of ghosts.

There are several ghosts blowing air at some sleeping people. One of them is breathing air into the nose of a driver apprentice.

Li Feng's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he immediately put all the ghosts into the space of the jade pendant.

Li Feng entered the jade card space and said, "Do you guys take my words as bullshit? All of you, come out here."

"And Li Ermazi and Wang Wu, what did I tell you two when you left?"

Li Feng did not listen to their excuses. He was afraid that if he became soft-hearted, these ghosts would confront him again in the future. He did not need so many ghosts anyway, so he directly threw the four ghosts with greatly increased strength into the soul refining furnace.

The Soul Refining Furnace, which had been silent at first, suddenly began to rise with black flames, enveloping the entire furnace.

The ghosts retreated in fear, as if they had seen their natural enemy. At this moment, a very shrill scream came from the soul refining furnace.

The screams seemed to come from the abyss of Hell, carrying with them endless pain and despair.

First there was a burst of sharp high-pitched sound, like a sharp dagger piercing straight into everyone's eardrums. The sound was filled with the pain of a soul being torn apart, making people shudder.

"what--"

The sound was extremely long, as if life was making its last struggle, every syllable was trembling, and every breath was filled with fear.

"Please, please, Master, give me another chance. I, I, I won't dare to do it again."

Then the voice became hoarse and broken, as if the speaker's throat had been burned beyond recognition by fire.

"Help...help me!"

Every word was filled with deep pleading, yet was distorted beyond recognition by endless pain.

Afterwards, the screams became more and more shrill, as if millions of steel needles were piercing into the deepest part of the soul at the same time.

“No—don’t—”

The sound was no longer something a human could make, but rather a desperate roar from hell that sent chills down one's spine and numbed one's scalp. The entire space was filled with this horrific scream, as if it was going to drag everyone into an endless abyss of pain.

The other ghosts who were not punished all looked pale and their bodies were trembling.

Some ghosts covered their ears, but they could not stop the heart-piercing screams from entering their minds.

Some ghosts opened their eyes wide, their eyes full of fear and helplessness, as if they would suffer the same torture in the next second.

Some ghosts felt their legs go weak and they collapsed to the ground, trembling and muttering to themselves, "How terrible, how terrible..." The whole scene was in extreme panic and chaos.

Li Feng was also very frightened now. Fortunately, his consciousness was now in the jade card space, otherwise, he would definitely be trembling with fear.

Looking at the black fire on the soul refining furnace, called the "Nine Netherworld Fire", he did not expect it to be so powerful.

Li Feng paused for a moment, pretending to be indifferent and said: "You all remember this, behave yourself in the future, or I don't need to say anything more about the consequences, right?"

He looked at Li Ermaizi and Wang Wu and said, "Humph, as for you two, I'm sleepy now. I'll deal with you when I have time."

After Li Feng finished speaking, he left the jade card space. After his consciousness returned to his body, his body couldn't help but tremble. He didn't expect the soul refining furnace to be so terrible! In the future, when refining souls, he would not be in the jade card space no matter what he said.

After a long while, he adjusted his mentality and found that he was soaked in cold sweat. He quickly took out a set of the same clothes in the space, changed into them, and then fell asleep.

He did not sleep well, and his dreams were filled with all kinds of shrill screams. Not only did he not sleep well in the room, but the other apprentices also did not sleep well, especially the one whose breath was sucked by the ghost, who was now covered in sweat.

Everyone was woken up by the experienced drivers. After Li Feng and Niu Dali woke up, Ding Youtian said, "You two brats, I've been driving for the past few days. Why do you feel more tired than me?"

Niu Dali rubbed his neck and said, "Don't mention it, Master. I feel that this sleep is not as comfortable as the sleep I had before!"

At this time, a voice came from the other side, saying, "Xiao Si, Xiao Si, wake up, what happened to you? Oh no, Xiao Si, I don't know what's wrong with you, no matter how I call you, he won't wake up."

Another veteran driver said, "Hurry up and take him to the hospital."

Ding Youtian looked at all the apprentices in the room. They all looked listless, as if all their yang energy had been sucked away.

Thinking of this, he said solemnly: "Gou Sheng Dali, come with me. Master will take you to the bathhouse to take a bath."

Li Feng felt that Ding Youtian must have noticed something, so he said, "Okay, Senior Brother's feet are really smelly, let's soak them properly."

Ding Youtian nodded and said, "It's just right that there are few people in the bathhouse at this time."

Li Feng and Niu Dali followed Ding Youtian to the bathhouse. Niu Dali asked, "Master, how did you know there is a bathhouse here?"

Li Feng said speechlessly: "Master has been a driver for many years, and he must have come here many times. Isn't it normal for Master to know where the bathhouse is?"

"Yeah, that's right, why didn't I think of that?"

After entering the bathhouse and buying the package ticket, I followed Ding Youtian to the men's bathing area. At this time, a staff member had just changed the water in the big pool and said, "Wow, you three are so lucky. The water has just been changed." After saying that, he left.

Ding Youtian said with a smile: "It's better to come at the right time than to come early. There are two pools here, one with warm water and one with slightly hot water. If you want to relieve your fatigue, you have to go to the hot water." After that, he tested the water temperature of the two pools with his hand.

Niu Dali originally wanted to jump into any pool, but after listening to it, he felt uncomfortable all over, tried it with his hand, and then went to the hot pool.

Li Feng went directly into the warm water pool. Niu Dali said, "Junior brother, come over here too? It's so comfortable to soak here."

"Just soak if you feel comfortable. My place is also fine. I'm not married yet, so this place suits me."

Niu Dali…….

Ding Youtian…….

"Junior brother, what does taking a bath have to do with being married or not?"

"Um, this..."

"Just tell me what you want to say. How can I laugh at you?"
