Most importantly, the little girl moved even closer, and the curve of her smile widened. At this moment, she was less than five centimeters away from Chu Jiang.

Compared to the little girl, the second old farmer was also closer. However, he was ultimately not as close as the little girl, so it seemed she would be the first to succeed...

Chu Jiang clenched his fists, his heart sinking lower and lower. No! He suddenly emerged from the shadows on the road.

At this moment, Chu Jiang felt as if he were sitting on pins and needles, as if he had thorns in his back, and as if he had a fishbone stuck in his throat; he was even like an ant being roasted on a hot pan, spinning around in circles.

This feeling can drive a person crazy. You know that danger is approaching you, and it's getting closer and closer, as if it's about to completely devour you in the next second.

But you just can't find where the danger is. Neither your naked eye nor the wide field of vision brought by extrasensory perception can detect anything unusual.

Chu Jiang was certain that if this continued, he would be in trouble in no more than five minutes, no, three minutes!

As for what might happen or whether he would die, that was beyond Chu Jiang's ability to predict.

Chapter 232 The Second Car

This encounter with the supernatural event was too rushed. Chu Jiang had originally planned to acquire a few ghosts as backup before he officially went to the Three Gods Mountain to explore the River God incident, and he wanted them to be relatively weak.

The main reason for acquiring these demons wasn't to borrow more abilities, but rather to utilize the precognitive function of the Demon Diary. Furthermore, since the diary only displays text about demons he personally sealed, they had to be weak. This way, when he released them and then personally sealed them again, he wouldn't fail miserably.

Although the premonitions in Ghost Diaries are somewhat lackluster, often without explicit hints, some hints are always better than none.

For example, right now, Chu Jiang is completely clueless and has no idea where the problem lies.

If he still has the ghost in the jar, sealing it into the diary on the spot might yield some clues.

After thinking carefully for a few seconds, Chu Jiang felt that the danger still came from behind.

But if he turns his head directly and can't see anything, then...

Suddenly, Chu Jiang reached out and gouged out his left eye. Incredibly, no blood flowed from Chu Jiang's left eye socket.

Since Chu Jiang is currently in a ghost-like state, removing any of his body parts will not cause him any harm. He just needs to put the parts back together before returning to normal.

Then, Chu Jiang carefully and cautiously raised the eyeball, positioning it at shoulder level, and looked behind him.

In this way, Chu Jiang could see forward with his right eye and backward with his left eye, achieving a truly unobstructed view in terms of naked-eye vision.

In that instant, Chu Jiang finally realized where the problem lay...

There were so many people, no, so many ghosts! There were so many ghosts standing behind him!

The moment Chu Jiang finally raised his left eye, he saw a series of eerie figures. They flickered for a moment, but ultimately did not disappear from his sight.

These creatures are dressed in different ways, even bearing the characteristics of different eras; they include men and women, the old and the young; some have pale skin, some are bluish-black, and some have already begun to rot.

Their expressions are all different, but the only thing they have in common is that they all have some features that are not human.

Finally, and most dangerously, a little girl with a flat face and only a mouth was "leaning" against his back, almost overlapping with his body.

At the same time that Chu Jiang saw these ghosts, these ghosts also saw Chu Jiang at the same time, and they all raised their heads!

Even the little girl in the dress turned her head at a 90-degree angle to look at the eyeball that Chu Jiang had placed on his shoulder.

Before these ghosts could kill, Chu Jiang immediately clasped his hands together, blocking the view through his left eye.

Since his sight had vanished, Chu Jiang had no idea whether the ghosts were all rushing at him at once; he only felt a chill run down his spine.

Damn it, the last time Chu Jiang saw so many ghosts at once was inside the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall; and now, none of these ghosts have a god-like Old Master Lin to suppress them.

A few seconds later, after confirming that the ghosts were not attacking for the time being, Chu Jiang withdrew his left eye.

The situation is critical, what should we do next?

Chu Jiang could guarantee that once the nearest little girl pressed herself against his body, something terrible would happen.

And he still doesn't understand when all these ghosts came up behind him.

The only certainty is that as long as you don't make direct eye contact with these ghosts, they won't attack immediately; instead, they will keep following you until the nearest ghost touches you.

Chu Jiang quickly reviewed all his abilities and all the sealed artifacts he carried in his mind.

Ultimately, the red embroidered ball and the soul-guiding incense were the two items he chose the fastest.

Both of these sealing artifacts have the ability to lure away ghosts for a short period of time.

If we're talking about sheer power, then the Red Embroidered Ball is definitely the one; even S-class vengeful ghosts can't resist its "charm."

But here's the problem: the red embroidered ball can only buy Chu Jiang some time.

Moreover, he hadn't forgotten what Yun Changfeng had said: if there were multiple ghosts present, all of them would try to snatch the ball.

The ghosts won't fight amongst themselves because of this; they'll just compete to see who can grab it the fastest. If they all grab it at the same time, then all the ghosts who grabbed it will chase after you together.

Therefore, the more ghosts there are, the less you should throw balls carelessly. Some ghosts might not have targeted you yet, but if you throw a ball and they pick it up, you will definitely be hunted down.

As for the Soul-Guiding Incense, the high-end version should be somewhat effective, right?

But here's the problem: there are only two incense sticks in the Chu River, and there are so many ghosts here. If they all come together to suck the incense, the two incense sticks probably won't last long.

In this short period of time, how far can Chu Jiang escape, and where can he escape to?

Just as the situation reached a stalemate, Chu Jiang suddenly saw two beams of dim yellow light shooting out from the darkness in the distance.

Although the light appeared dim in the boundless darkness, for Chu Jiang it was like seeing an oasis in the desert.

It must be a taxi, right? Did it come back to pick me up?!

Although I don't quite understand why the taxi would come from the direction I came from, now is obviously not the time to think about that.

Chu Jiang waved vigorously in the direction the car headlights were shining from in the distance!

The taxi was indeed cooperative, showing no resentment for the violent damage Chu Jiang had caused it, and actually slowly drove towards them.

When the dark red old-fashioned taxi silently pulled up in front of him, Chu Jiang's expression froze.

This doesn't seem to be the same car as before...

Chu Jiang didn't deduce it from the license plate number or anything like that; he hadn't even memorized the license plate number beforehand.

The first taxi that stopped in front of him had an intact door, with no signs of him smashing it.

Secondly, although there is no driver in the driver's seat, there is already a passenger in it.

The passenger was sitting in the front passenger seat. She appeared to be a long-haired woman dressed in white, with horribly pale skin, as if she had been soaking in water, but without any corresponding swelling.

The most horrifying thing is that the woman's head was severed, but she neither held it in her hands nor reattached it to her neck...

No, the woman's head was indeed on her neck, but it was completely reversed.

What does this mean? It means that the white-clad woman's skull was pieced together from her lower neck; while the bloody upper half of her neck was directly facing the roof of the taxi.

The passenger was very quiet and never looked at Chu Jiang, but she didn't seem like a living person at all.

Now Chu Jiang faces a choice: stay and fight to the death against the devils behind him.

Let's get in the car and head to some unknown place with this female ghost who looks like she's not to be trifled with...

Chapter 233 The Destination of the Supernatural Journey?

Moreover, there are two other issues here. One is: will these traitors get on the bus with Chu Jiang?

Another question is: Can Chu Jiang really reach his destination alive while riding with a ghost?

Chu Jiang's thought process was extremely fast; in less than a second, he took out a Soul-Guiding Incense.

Chu Jiang did not light the fire on the spot, but quickly moved through the darkness to a distance of several dozen meters.

He first took out an incense burner, inserted incense sticks, and tied a fuse to the top of the incense. The other end of the fuse was connected to a remote-controlled igniter.

This igniter was delivered by the research institute along with the Soul-Guiding Incense. Its prototype is a long-range firecracker igniter, which can be bought on Taobao for a few dozen yuan each.

Of course, the igniters developed by the research institute are of much higher quality than those sold online, and their maximum effective range is also much longer.

Having made all the necessary preparations, Chu Jiang quickly rushed back to the taxi, fearing that the car might run away.

But just as Chu Jiang's left hand touched the doorknob, he felt something brush against his skin.

It was a cold, shady human silhouette. At first, it only reached my waist, but once I touched it, it immediately expanded to cover my entire back.

Chu Jiang decisively pressed the remote control button on his right hand, while simultaneously reaching behind him with his left hand!

The bluish-black palm forcefully grasped some invisible force, preventing the other party from further invading its body.

The incense was quickly lit, and a strange fragrance wafted from afar, bringing a sense of calm and tranquility even to the living.

Drawn by the fragrance, Chu Jiang felt the chilling force behind him slowly leaving his body. The speed wasn't too fast, but it was definitely leaving.

So he gradually loosened his grip. The most important thing now was to get on the bus, not to get entangled with the ghost here.

Wait a minute! Chu Jiang noticed something ominous: the "female passenger" in the taxi had actually turned her head slightly to look in this direction.

It was also attracted by the incense; was it going to get off the vehicle too?

No, no, no, this might be a good thing. You all get off the bus, and I'll just get on.

But before Chu Jiang could even see the female ghost get out of the car, he noticed that the taxi seemed to be acting strangely. It turned around and looked like it was about to rush towards the incense sticks.

This made Chu Jiang want to hit someone, or rather, take a taxi. Why did you come along in a car to cause trouble?

There was no time to lose. Chu Jiang opened the door, rushed into the car, and locked the doors behind him.

"Drive! Driver, drive!"

While shouting, Chu Jiang patted the seat. If he could drive the car, he would have jumped from the back seat to the driver's seat to drive it.

Urged on by the passengers, the taxi, seemingly not forgetting its duty, slowly straightened the car and drove forward onto the road...

During this process, Chu Jiang gouged out his left eye again, risking letting his left eye look back.

Chu Jiang immediately looked away, afraid that the ghosts behind him would follow again.

However, this was enough for Chu Jiang to see clearly. Behind him, there were at least a hundred ghosts densely packed around the incense burner, more than when Chu Jiang first saw it!

Damn, this place is really weird. I've only been walking for a short while since I got off the bus, and I've already attracted so many ghosts.

That soul-summoning incense stick probably won't last even two or three minutes before it's completely absorbed.

"Drive faster, driver!" Chu Jiang shouted, unable to hold back any longer. He rushed forward and tried to grip the steering wheel and slam on the gas pedal.
