Chapter 16 Summoning Ghosts (15)

Blood kept flowing from the hole in his shoulder where he had been clawed, and his body grew colder and colder. Lu Jinzhao couldn't tell if it was because of blood loss or because of the approaching ghost.

Aside from the ghost following her, the deceased Lin Shuyue and Cen Duo, and Jiang Yingzhi, whose fate is unknown, there are at most five ghosts remaining here.

Five demons are beings that an ordinary human like her cannot contend with, no matter what.

Fortunately, she didn't need to fight back; she only needed to run away.

Lu Jinzhao heard the sound of the car door opening, accompanied by an even more distinct and particularly shrill meow from a cat.

She dared not open her eyes, unable to confirm what had happened, but she knew it couldn't be anything good.

Lu Jinzhao still had some doubts, but she couldn't care less about that now. She pushed off with her feet and broke free from the strands of hair, even though the sharp hair cut her ankles. She just ran towards the car door with all her might.

However, just as she tore off the tangled strands of hair, new hair began to entangle her the next second.

These strands of hair greatly slowed her down, and when the skin on her ankles was completely cut open, Lu Jinzhao felt something trying to crawl into her body through the exposed flesh.

She thought of the person wrapped in hair. If those strands of hair were allowed to seep into her body, she would probably end up like that.

But she didn't have time to worry about that anymore.

Even though she could feel strands of hair burrowing into her flesh and felt spasmodic pain in her calves, Lu Jinzhao gritted her teeth and struggled to break free of the newly bound strands of hair, running step by step toward the car door.

Thanks to the loud noise from the train, she was able to find her general direction even with her eyes closed.

However, the next second, Lu Jinzhao found himself bumping into something.

Cold, stiff, and motionless.

what?
Lu Jinzhao held her breath. She didn't dare to open her eyes, but even without looking, she knew that what she bumped into at this moment couldn't be anything normal.

The next moment, a cold hand suddenly grabbed Lu Jinzhao's neck.

The force was unusually strong; in an instant, Lu Jinzhao could no longer breathe.

The other party showed no mercy and went straight for her to kill her.

Furthermore, the moment it grabbed Lu Jinzhao, the pain of her leg muscles being torn apart by the hair subsided considerably.

It was a ghost, Lu Jinzhao immediately confirmed.

Moreover, it was an existence far more powerful than that hair demon, so at this moment, Lu Jinzhao was its prey, and the hair ceased its invasion.

Despite his breath being cut off and the pain of oxygen deprivation, Lu Jinzhao was still able to focus on confirming that there was also a power-based class difference between "ghosts".

The things that Lin Shuyue had been concerned about since that time have now been answered more definitively here.

There is indeed a conflict between ghosts.

But what's the use of knowing this?

Right now, she seems to have reached a dead end.

Even though her eyes were tightly closed, a line of bloody words appeared before her eyes.

Paying a price, exchanging a way to survive.

It's sheepskin.

It seems that the sheepskin also believed that she was in dire straits and doomed to die.

In this situation, if you propose a deal, do you believe she would accept it even at a great cost?
The brain was gradually losing its ability to think due to lack of oxygen, and the feeling of suffocation was extremely uncomfortable, even for Lu Jinzhao.

Moreover, she could feel that the hand gripping her neck was incredibly strong, unlike anything a human could feel.

If she doesn't get rid of it quickly, she might be strangled to death before she even suffocates. So, a deal?

--No.

Perhaps in the sheepskin's eyes, she was in dire straits and had no choice but to turn to it for help, but...
Lu Jinzhao did not want to make a deal with it, as long as there was even the slightest way, no matter how dangerous that way was.
She opened her eyes suddenly.

The next second, a familiar face came into view.

The passenger who drew the ultimate ghost-seeing mission was now dressed in a funeral shroud, his face bluish-purple, looking like a dead man.

No, that's not what I want to see.

The hand on her neck was tightening, preventing Lu Jinzhao from turning her head. She could only strain her eyes to look to the side, knowing that all it took was a sliver of light, a single glance that gave her an opening.
A rotting face, completely obscured except for one eye emitting a ghostly green light, suddenly appeared before her eyes.

It was that ghost that had been following her since the operating table, trying to possess her!
This is it.

She finally saw the ghost, the ghost that had been following her, and it finally discovered her.

The conditions were met, and the ghost face disappeared the next moment. But Lu Jinzhao felt a chill run through her body, especially in her eyes. Her world suddenly turned gray and hazy, filled with the color of incense ash. Everything was distorted and blurred, as if she were in another world. Only the ghost in front of her and the train not far away were clear.

"Is this the gaze of a ghost?"

Lu Jinzhao didn't have time to think too much, because she clearly sensed that her control over her body and mind was decreasing, and even this one thought became unusually slow.

It was as if something was vying for control of her mind and body.

Or perhaps, the ghost has already successfully invaded her body.

But thanks to this, the hand gripping her neck loosened.

It wasn't completely loosened, which was within Lu Jinzhao's expectations.

As the ghost summoned by the ultimate ghost-seeing technique, it will most likely be the strongest one in the platform.

Therefore, she uses the ghost that has been trying to possess her to fight against it, but she will not win immediately. In other words, during the fight, she will not be possessed immediately, nor will she be killed immediately.

The confrontation between the two ghosts will give her a brief chance of survival, but that's not enough.

The hand, which had loosened slightly, tightened again after only about five seconds.

"It seems that the ghost that possessed me is indeed not strong enough."

In just five seconds, they were already defeated in the battle between ghosts?
But it was also expected.

Without hesitation, Lu Jinzhao took advantage of the fact that she still had control over her body and had not yet been completely possessed. She raised her hand and forcefully pried open the ghostly hand that was gripping her neck.

Sure enough, it can be bent!

You can't move a ghost on your own unless another ghost possesses you!

This is an extremely dangerous practice, almost gambling with one's own life, but it doesn't end there!

After the hands of the shroud ghost were pried open, the ghost that had been suppressed inside the body immediately launched a counterattack!
Her mind went blank for a moment, and in that instant she could hardly feel her own existence.

However, the hair strands that had been suppressed and quietly buried in Lu Jinzhao's body also became active at this moment.

Even without the suppression of the shroud ghost, she wouldn't be possessed immediately, as there are still quite a few strands of hair that had previously invaded her body!

Before they decide the winner, there may only be a few seconds, but this is time that Lu Jinzhao has won.

It was her only chance of survival.
