Today's test was another major failure.

"Beep beep beep—"

The narrow road was only wide enough for one car to pass at a time. By the time the blinding high beams came on in front of him, You Yonghuai realized it was too late.

"Watch out ahead!"

Because his attention was focused on the body parts in the sack, the driver only belatedly turned around after You Yonghuai loudly reminded him.

"Holy crap!" the driver screamed, slamming on the brakes in an attempt to avoid a collision.

However, the large truck in front of them seemed to have no intention of stopping, and didn't even honk its horn, but drove straight towards them.

The proximity rendered all efforts futile, so the driver forcefully turned the steering wheel, positioning the side without passengers towards the oncoming truck.

You Yonghuai sat in the back row, reaching out to protect his head, not too worried about his safety.

As long as it's not an instant kill, the Source of Life can heal you back to health.

Needless to say, Si Xuanyin, in her soul form, was also an exception.

"boom!"

The heavy truck crashed into the car that You Yonghuai was riding in, denting most of it. Fragments of the broken and deformed car door pierced You Yonghuai's calf, leaving a horrific wound.

Fortunately, the deployed airbags protected the driver and saved his life.

With the help of the truck's high beams, Yu Yonghuai quickly pulled the shards off his leg, wiped away the blood, and the wound began to heal quickly.

After climbing out of the car, You Yonghuai rushed to the driver's side and hurriedly asked, "I'll get you out right now. Are you hurt anywhere?"

"My leg, my left leg seems to be trapped..." The driver's face was contorted with pain, his voice trembling, his eyes filled with agony and pleading, "Brother, please help me..."

You Yonghuai forcefully opened the deformed car door, squatted down to glance at the driver's lower body, and said, "I'm sorry, this might cause further damage to your car."

"It's alright, sir. I definitely won't make you pay for it. I'm so grateful to you for saving my life."

As the driver spoke, You Yonghuai began to pry open the part that was pressing down on the driver's left leg.

As the pressure on his leg gradually decreased, the driver quickly pulled his left leg back the moment he was able to move it freely.

"Thank you so much, sir!" As he got out of the car, the driver grabbed You Yonghuai's hand and thanked him repeatedly, though he was somewhat puzzled.

Why is this guy so strong?

And what's in that sack?

"It's good that you're alright." You Yonghuai replied with a smile, feeling unworthy of such gratitude.

After all, strictly speaking, the current situation is caused by his own misfortune.

"Yonghuai, come and see!"

While You Yonghuai was trying to rescue the driver, Si Xuanyin, who couldn't help, simply flew into the truck to see what was going on with the driver.

Without asking any questions, You Yonghuai walked around the severely damaged car and went to the truck door.

Looking through the car window, You Yonghuai's pupils contracted slightly.

The truck was empty.

"Did the driver run away, or..." You Yonghuai tried to open the car door, but found that he could not succeed. Just as he was about to break the glass and force his way in, a phone call came in.

I picked it up and saw it was a call from Li Yongqi:

"Xiao You, what happened on your end? Why did the call suddenly drop?"

"Captain Li, I've been in a car accident. Could you send someone over?" You Yonghuai typed a few words on his phone and said, "I've sent the location."

"Okay, tell the people over there not to move for now, we'll get over as soon as possible—don't hang up yet, it's the middle of nowhere there, if something happens, it'll be troublesome."

"Captain Li, don't say that. You know I've always had terrible luck. If something really happens, I'll definitely come to you," You Yonghuai said, half-jokingly and half-self-deprecatingly.

At the same time, Si Xuanyin landed beside her and shook her head: "I didn't see anyone around."

After finding no one in the truck, Si Xuanyin took to the air and looked around, trying to find any possible driver who had abandoned the vehicle and fled.

But at least there were no similar figures in any place she could see.

"Is there really no one driving?" You Yonghuai frowned, walked to the back of the truck, and glanced at Si Xuanyin.

After taking a quick look inside, the girl shook her head again: "There's nothing in the car."

This was a completely empty truck; the most valuable thing inside was probably the diesel fuel.

"Brother, what do we do next?" The driver leaned closer to You Yonghuai, his voice filled with worry.

His left leg was still aching, and his car had broken down. Staying in this desolate wilderness made him increasingly apprehensive.

I should have just endured the traffic jam a bit longer.

I'll never walk down those back paths again.

"I've contacted the police, they'll send someone to pick us up, let's wait here for now." Yu Yonghuai ignored the truck driver who might not even exist, pulled out the sack he had left in the truck, and started eating bread.

"Want one?"

This time, the driver didn't refuse. He took the bread and sat on the fallen chair, slowly munching on it.

Putting aside the fact that these breads were mixed in with those bizarre body parts just seconds before, they actually tasted pretty good.

Seeing that the other party had not noticed the truck driver's problem, You Yonghuai did not bring it up himself, because he did not want to create unnecessary panic.

It's summer now, but the outdoors is quite cold late at night. Even though You Yonghuai was wearing a coat and gloves, he still felt a bit cold.

Not to mention the driver who was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt.

[Check failed! Something seems to be appearing in the distance?]

Taking a bite of the remaining bread in his hand, You Yonghuai frowned slightly and said somewhat vaguely, "Captain Li's jinx really came true..."

In the darkness, a humanoid creature slowly emerged.

【Name: False Ghoul (Artificial)】

Upon seeing the text appear on the screen, You Yonghuai narrowed his eyes and quickly became alert.

He had seen the same name a long time ago; it was the fake deliveryman.

"It reminds me of bad memories..." You Yonghuai scratched his head.

"?" The driver was a little confused. He followed You Yonghuai's gaze and froze. The remaining half of the bread in his hand fell to the ground.

"Don't look at it," You Yonghuai stood up, stretching his body, no longer as panicked as when he first saw it. "It's a good opportunity to see if what I've learned is useful."

Before he could attempt to use flesh magic through self-harm, Si Xuanyin materialized and threw a fireball.

"Can't you be kinder to yourself?"

Seeing the pseudo-ghoul fall to the ground under the scorching flames before it could even get close, You Yonghuai could only nod and tearfully replicate the fireball spell.
