Chapter 47: No God In This World
Previously, when Jiang Shan wanted to find the Newspaper Ghost’s location through the Ghost Cabinet, the Ghost Bus that suppressed the weirdness issued a warning to him.
This represented a signal.
Yang Jian’s growth cannot be changed or influenced.
So after that, even when asking if the Newspaper Ghost was the third ghost he needed most, Jiang Shan chose to get the Ghost Cabinet’s answer through questioning.
But today, perhaps because his days are numbered, Jiang Shan’s heart kept restlessness, and he wanted to verify a guess of his.
So the moment he saw Wang Yue, he already harbored killing intent toward him.
Since the Ghost Rope is an indispensable step for Yang Jian to cause the Ghost Shadow to dead machine in the future, what changes would occur if he took the Ghost Rope?
When he truly obtained the Ghost Rope, Jiang Shan discovered:
Old Qin did not appear, and even the Ghost Bus had completely vanished.
This couldn’t help but make him think:
Can Yang Jian’s future really not be influenced? But he had clearly taken the Ghost Rope.
But what was that warning from the Ghost Bus in the Ghost Cabinet last time?
A series of questions made Jiang Shan certain of one thing: he didn’t need to be as cautious about Yang Jian as before. After he arrived in this world, the future was filled with unknowns.
“Yang Jian!”
Suddenly, Jiang Shan shouted loudly toward the blue sky like a madman.
One minute, three minutes, five minutes
If following the story’s end, as long as he shouted the name Yang Jian, a “god” with “ghost body divinity” would appear before the shouter.
This god ignored the future, ignored the past, and lived in every moment.
But when Jiang Shan shouted this name, no one appeared before him.
The “god” is not in this world,
not in any part of this world!
Jiang Shan’s eyes gleamed faintly. He already knew that the god of the future did not exist in this world, and he no longer needed to fear anything about Yang Jian!
A exhilarating rush breaking through the gloom pierced through Jiang Shan’s entire body from the top of his head. He glanced at the Ghost Rope in his hand and murmured to himself:
“The path lies beneath my feet.”
If previously Jiang Shan’s attitude toward Yang Jian was neither provoking nor getting close,
then now he only wanted to act freely and face everyone frankly, including Yang Jian.
“Next time Yang Jian dares to strike first, I guarantee I’ll crack his skull open, you little bear ghost.”
Jiang Shan put the Ghost Rope into the gold box he had long prepared and thought silently.
Wang Yue was already dead, but Zhao Kaiming, who was targeting Yang Jian, was not yet dead.
Yan Li’s family’s location had been exposed. For the sake of his promise, Jiang Shan called Chen Yue:
“Hello, Chen Yue, my bank card is in the closet of that room of mine. Take my bank card, go to Guanjiang Residential Area, and buy a villa. Remember, the closer to the sales office, the better.”
“Okay.” Chen Yue on the other end of the phone answered immediately without any hesitation.
Now Chen Yue felt that Jiang Shan’s body was full of secrets. No matter what Jiang Shan wanted to do, she would choose to support him unconditionally, even if it meant doing something that seemed certain to kill her; she would do it without hesitation.
Although she didn’t know why Jiang Shan treated a classmate like her, who was neither relative nor friend, so caringly.
But after being saved by him so many times, the trust and dependence she had for Jiang Shan in her heart had reached an unprecedented level.
After Jiang Shan hung up the phone, Chen Yue immediately set off to prepare to buy the house.
After burying Wang Yue’s corpse underground through the Ghost Domain, Jiang Shan let out a long sigh and slowly walked into the house.
“Mom, it’s Brother Jiang Shan.”
Xiao Feng, who had been in a coma, had now woken up. When he saw Jiang Shan, he looked happily at his mother.
As if he had completely forgotten that he had almost been hanged alive just moments ago.
“Sister-in-law, I have some words I want to say to you.”
“I know, Little Jiang. You want to tell me that Yan Li won’t come back, right? Actually, I already know everything.”
Yan Li’s wife suddenly interrupted Jiang Shan and said with a face full of grief:
“Don’t I know Yan Li? He’s so honest; how could he possibly earn so much money? He’s been coming home less and less lately. Before, I saw blood all over the floor in his room. He’s so family-oriented; how could he not call me for three days?”
“Today Xiao Feng almost got hanged to death. There are ghosts in this world, right? Little Jiang, don’t hide it from Sister-in-law anymore. Please tell Sister-in-law: can Yan Li come back?” The woman’s voice grew more choked up. Even though tears streamed down her face, she never cried out loud.
Yan Li’s wife was holding back. She was afraid that if she cried out, she would collapse.
She still needed to stay strong and alive, to raise their child and support Yan Li’s parents.
Jiang Shan looked at the woman before him with unbearable reluctance, but he still decided to tell Yan Li’s wife the truth:
“Yan Li and I are both Ghost Wielders. There’s a ghost hidden in each of our bodies. Without other methods, we can live at most five or six months. Yan Li, he…” Jiang Shan didn’t finish his words, because there was no need to say what came next.
“I’m actually not really friends with Yan Li. I made a transaction with him: before dying, he had to hand over the ghost in his body to me, and in return, I promised to ensure your and the child’s safety.”
Jiang Shan frankly told Yan Li’s wife everything; there was nothing to hide.
The grief that was coming wouldn’t decrease because of his words, nor would it increase because of them.
It was better for the woman to live deceived and muddled than to experience one unforgettable grief and then live on tenaciously.
As Yan Li’s wife, she deserved to know the truth.
Looking at the woman with an extremely grief-stricken expression, Jiang Shan said nothing more and just squatted down to silently stroke Xiao Feng’s head.
After a long time,
The woman, who had no idea how many times she had cried in her heart, looked at Jiang Shan with her already red and swollen eyes, her voice trembling with sobs:
“Thank you, Little Jiang. Really, thank you so much. I don’t know what to say. I…”
“Sister-in-law, after Chen Yue buys the house, your family can move there to live. I don’t know how many days I have left to live either, so I found a relatively safe place. Live well there.”
After Jiang Shan finished speaking, he walked out. At the door, he lit a cigarette and then took out his mobile phone.
While Yan Li’s wife was speaking earlier, he had felt his mobile phone vibrate. It seemed someone was calling him.
And at this time, the people who could be looking for him were only a few,
Yang Jian, Yan Li, Wang Xiao Ming.
So after arranging everything, Jiang Shan took out his mobile phone, glanced at the caller ID, and clicked to call back.
If it was Yang Jian or someone else, he would choose to ignore it.
But the name on the phone was exceptionally glaring at this moment—Yan Li.
“It’s finally coming, huh.” Jiang Shan thought to himself.
After a few rings, the call connected on the other end.
Brothers, if you think anything is off, you must tell your brother. I will quickly and promptly make revisions to ensure a good reading experience for my brothers.
Thank you brothers for your support, thank you for your love!
Once again shamelessly, this little brother kneels and begs for brothers’ votes and support!
