I have a ghost diary

......
Ten minutes later, Chu Jiang first put away the white-haired zombie and the ghost taxi.
In just a short while, headquarters had already contacted him urgently to inquire about the situation in Luohe City. After all, the area covered by the domain was so vast that it was hard not to notice.
Chu Jiang explained briefly, and the other party finally felt relieved.
Oh right, Chu Jiang also gave the white-haired zombie a name, since he'll be his underling from now on, and he can't keep calling him "zombie" forever.
Although Chu Jiang doesn't yet know how to control it, he plans to consult the old man, who might be able to offer some guidance.
As for the name given to the zombie, it's very simple: just call it "General".
This character is clearly Jiang Chen from "My Date with a Vampire," and his appearance matches the white-haired zombie ancient general very well.
Putting away the ghost, Chu Jiang took out the black sniper rifle again.
According to expert Chen, this was originally an ancient sealed artifact, and the ghost inside was originally residing on a longbow.
Later, because the longbow itself was on the verge of decay, Mr. Xu transferred the ghost inside into a modern sniper rifle.
Although it has changed its vessel, since the ghost remains the same, its power has not been weakened; in fact, it could be said to be even more potent.
However, correspondingly, this sniper rifle has terrifying recoil, enough to annihilate a person's soul and consciousness.
Chu Jiang thought for a moment, then took out the black box that couldn't be opened and casually threw it a hundred meters away.
Then he rose into the air, raised his sniper rifle, aimed at the box, and fired!
"Bang!" With a piercing whistling sound, the bullet struck the iron box and produced an even louder explosion.
After the explosion, everything centered on the box was annihilated by a strange force. It didn't look like it had been bombarded by modern weapons like bullets or bombs; it looked more like it had completely disintegrated and been destroyed in an instant.
Moreover, this range is terrifying; Chu Jiang estimates that one shot could easily wipe out a villa.
Chapter 330 The Unreliable Ghost Mirror
As for the recoil, it was indeed abnormal. Even with Chu Jiang's current physique, a mark was still shaken out of his shoulder, even though that part had completely transformed into Chu Zhan's body.
If it were Chu Jiang before he awakened his bloodline power, this spear would probably have killed him too, making him disappear into thin air.
Finally, there was the black metal box that was used as a target... It was still perfectly fine, without even a trace of damage.
This made Chu Jiang shake his head, "Liar."
He was referring to the Ghost Mirror, which had once displayed a scene in which Chu Jiang used a black sniper rifle to open a box.
When Chu Jiang tried to open it, he couldn't open it at all, which shows that the Ghost Mirror is not a reliable thing.
Nevertheless, Chu Jiang first put away the two sealed items, and finally took out the Ghost Mirror.
This time, as soon as the Ghost Mirror appeared, it seemed to have sensed the thoughts in the owner's mind and generously displayed some images.
Chu Jiang's idea was: if they continue to play dead, then send them back to headquarters to continue facing the wall until the end of the world.
However, the scenes shown seem to have nothing to do with Chu Jiang's background or his parents.
The background of the image resembles a quiet Western-style chapel.
There were two women in the church, standing one in front of the cross. Both were dressed in black robes and hooded, looking mysterious.
The taller woman in front was facing the cross, talking to herself.
Behind her, the slightly shorter woman seemed agitated after hearing this, but she tried her best to control herself, only clenching her fists and trying to argue something.
The tall woman smiled slightly and said something in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, the woman behind seemed somewhat taken aback... Gradually, she unconsciously loosened her clenched hands, as if she had completely resigned herself to her fate.
Chu Jiang couldn't read their lips because they seemed to be speaking English or something similar.
Just as Chu Jiang was beginning to make his guess, the woman behind him took off her hood, revealing long golden hair and a fair and delicate face.
This was Sister Jade Williams from the Church of the Holy Word, the one who visited headquarters last time.
But at this moment, Jade shed tears, her lips tightly pressed together, unsure of what fate awaited her...
Just as Chu Jiang was about to continue watching, the tall woman suddenly turned her head, seemingly looking in his direction.
At the same moment, the image on the ghost mirror vanished with a snap, and the mirror surface was empty, without reflecting Chu Jiang's face.
"That's it? Why are you showing me this?" Chu Jiang patted the mirror.
"You know what I'm interested in? Where is the Chu family's ancestral cemetery? If you don't show it to me, I'll destroy the mirror and give you to the Ghost Diary to eat."
Chu Jiang really wanted to do that, but he wasn't sure if the mirror could be destroyed. And if it was destroyed, how would he extract the ghost inside?
This kind of thing doesn't seem so simple. Like that crystal house before, it was torn to pieces by Chu Jiang and Chen Xiaodong's battle; but after their battle ended, the crystal house was almost completely repaired by itself, so there was no possibility that a ghost escaped.
As for the longbow itself being on the verge of decay, that's a different story; it wasn't violently destroyed.
After Chu Jiang threatened it, Ghost Mirror still didn't move, so Chu Jiang threw it into the air and immediately took out a sniper rifle to snipe it.
For others, the side effects of this sniper rifle are enormous, but for Chu Jiang, it's perfectly acceptable, as long as he doesn't fire 10,000 shots in a short period of time.
"Bang~!"
The bullet, imbued with supernatural power, struck the ghost mirror.
But to Chu Jiang's utter dismay, his reflection suddenly appeared on the mirror.
What's even more unbelievable is that the sniper bullet mysteriously pierced through the mirror and then shot out from the mirror, aiming directly at Chu Jiang himself!
Chu Jiang immediately used his power to interfere with reality, attempting to deflect the bullet from a distance.
But to his surprise, the bullet exploded immediately upon contact with the Chu Zombie Power he had unleashed, annihilating a portion of the Chu Zombie Power.
This unexpectedly led Chu Jiang to discover a use for it. If he was truly unafraid of death, he could consider firing multiple shots at a troublesome ghost, so that the ghost would either dodge or have its strength continuously depleted by him.
Coming to his senses, Chu Jiang looked at the ghost mirror that had fallen to the ground, frowned, and reached out to grab it back.
Destroying this thing doesn't seem to be that simple, Chu Jiang continued his experiments.
He held the ghost mirror in his left hand, deliberately making sure the back of the mirror faced him; then he gripped the mirror with his right hand, trying to crush it alive.
But to Chu Jiang's surprise, his right hand went straight into the Ghost Mirror and appeared on top of his own head.
This left Chu Jiang speechless. 360 degrees without any blind spots, huh?
He turned the mirror over and, sure enough, his reflection appeared in it again.
It seems difficult to destroy it. The Ghost Mirror has a special self-protection mechanism; all attacks against it will be directed at the attacker.
Chu Jiang even took out the Ghost Diary to try it out, but unfortunately it showed little interest in the sealed item. Moreover, even if it was a ghost, it wouldn't actively try to swallow it; at most, it would give Chu Jiang a hint, urging him to quickly pack the ghost up and feed it to it.
"If you keep this up, I won't even send you back from headquarters. By the way, how about leaving you at the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall? After all, I came here seeking a favor, and it wouldn't be very polite to come empty-handed."
Even after Chu Jiang said that, the Ghost Mirror still didn't react, so he shook his head and could only put the thing away for now.
Chu Jiang wasn't sure whether this ghost mirror could be considered a conscious being. If so, what was its purpose?
Currently, Chu Jiang only knows that it doesn't like staying in deserted places and hopes someone will take it away from headquarters.
In other words, Chu Jiang could only use this to threaten it.
If Ghost Mirror prefers to remain hidden rather than provide any clues, then Chu Jiang will be powerless against it.
Even if it really gave him a clue, Chu Jiang wouldn't dare to believe it. He could only try and fail little by little because there was a precedent of Ghost Mirror using false information to kill people.
Judging from this, this thing is indeed extremely difficult to use.
Never mind, let's go see the old man first.
With this in mind, Chu Jiang turned around and flew back to Luohe City.
As for the images shown by the ghost mirror, Chu Jiang didn't know if they were real or fake. Even if they were real, it wouldn't matter, as there was too little information.
He only knew that there were two nuns, the one in front of him was clearly of a higher rank, and was very likely the one who had given him the flyer.
That one in the back is Jade; she's just a pawn. We'll see them later when Chu Jiang goes abroad...
PS: The results are extremely dismal. The number of new subscriptions is decreasing day by day, and the subscriptions for the new book that is currently being serialized are even less than those for the old book that was completed more than half a year ago.
This book should be completed in about a million words. In fact, the plot has already started to accelerate, and it will be completed normally according to the outline, so don't worry.
When I started writing the book, I envisioned that if it did well, I could write several million words and expand into more subplots.
Now, we'll just go straight to the main storyline. I've fulfilled my promise when the book was launched: to see it through to the end, even with the terrible number of subscribers.
Chapter 331 Returning to the Lin Family Ancestral Hall
Lin Family Ancestral Hall, Luohe City.
It's very lively here today. The ancestral hall is open, people are burning incense inside, old men are playing chess and chatting outside, and old women are dancing in the open space.
Actually, it's not just today; the ancestral hall has been quite lively lately, with people coming every day to pray for the old patriarch's blessing.
Some citizens even suggested that since the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall is a local cultural relic, ordinary people should also be qualified to go in and offer incense, and it doesn't necessarily have to be a descendant of the Lin family.
This isn't because everyone has suddenly started practicing feudal superstition; it's just that something's not going on outside.
Even ordinary people can vaguely sense that something is wrong. Ghostly incidents occur frequently in various places, and some even have videos and photos leaked, making it hard not to believe.
Not to mention Luohe City, which once experienced a tragic paranormal event; although the research institute made some modifications to the collective memory afterward, the fear in the hearts of the survivors could not be completely erased.
Coincidentally, ever since Chu Jiang became the person in charge, he has been promoting the deeds of Old Master Lin:
For example, Lin Daosheng was the reincarnation of a celestial star lord, and was a renowned ghost-catching master a hundred or two hundred years ago; for example, the Lin family of Luohe once protected the common people, and even big shots in both the righteous and the evil worlds had to show them some respect.
For example, the old man made a great vow before his death that he would be eternally protected in the underworld after his death. He rests in the ancestral hall, silently protecting the people of Luohe.
Among the stories that were spread, it was also said that when Luohe City suffered a natural disaster last time, it was the old man who secretly protected everyone, which enabled them to survive the calamity.
This surprisingly awakened the memories of some of the Lin family descendants. They remembered that in times of crisis, someone asked the old patriarch for help; at the same time, people living near the ancestral hall also said with certainty that they heard everyone calling for the old patriarch to save their lives.
This news spread like wildfire. People were already somewhat uneasy, and now that they heard the old man was a guardian deity like the City God or the Earth God, they naturally flocked to his doorstep to pay their respects.
Even some of the Lin family's descendants from other places have been busy moving back to Luohe City lately.
When Chu Jiang arrived, this was exactly what he saw. He nodded to the few employees who were secretly watching over him at the research institute, and then stepped into the ancestral hall filled with the scent of incense.
