The BMW was a graduation gift from my parents. It had only been driven for less than two months, how could it be a haunted car?

Xing Lu's father asked, "On your way here, did you park the car near a cemetery?"

I thought about it. Yes, when I went to pick up Li Ping, I parked the car on the road at the entrance of his village and waited for Li Ping for half an hour. There was a cemetery by the roadside.

"That's it."

Xing Lu's father said that it was a local custom to burn paper cars and horses for the deceased, to be used in the afterlife for transportation.

When our car was parked at the cemetery, it caught the attention of the cemetery ghosts, who exchanged it with their ghostly car.

"A journey of a thousand miles ends at home. If the ghost car enters our home, our home will become the ghost's home. The four of us will become substitutes for those spirits. The spirits will take over our bodies for resurrection, and our souls will reside in the graves. Since the graves are not ours, we will essentially become wandering ghosts."

Nonsense!

If they didn't want to host us, they could have just said so directly. Why make up these stories to deceive us?

Xing Lu's father probably felt awkward about my identity and didn't want things to get uncomfortable. The other three classmates were truly burdened by me.

"Uncle, please don't scare me. We are here for Xing Lu. If you let her come out and she says she doesn't want me to enter, I will turn around and go home immediately, as if I never knew this friend."

Xing Lu's father shook his head repeatedly, saying Xing Lu was busy and didn't have time to see us.

He also mentioned that we were now connected to the ghost car. If we entered anyone's home, that home would be destroyed, including our own.

He instructed us to drive the car back to the cemetery, circle the entire cemetery clockwise ninety-nine times.

Using the auspicious number of ninety-nine to dispel the yin energy on the ghost car.

Anything ghostly fears yang energy. With each increase in yang energy, the ghost car would be destroyed, and the cemetery ghosts, in order to protect the ghost car, would have no choice but to exchange it back.

After saying this, he made an excuse of being busy and went back into the yard, locking the gate firmly.
