Chapter 60: Driving Into The Ghost’s World
After boarding the bus, Jiang Shan noticed there were no ghosts on the bus, so he turned his gaze to the interior of the bus. He began observing several suspicious existences inside the bus.
First was the handsome uncle behind him who was following the ghost. Since the TV display screen on the bus showed only one ghost, it meant this handsome uncle was also a Ghost Wielder.
Because only the ghost inside a Ghost Wielder’s body wouldn’t be recorded by that display screen.
Next was the last row of the bus.
From the time Jiang Shan got on the bus until now, one man had remained completely silent, sitting there motionless like a normal person.
He was wearing a baseball cap and a long-sleeved shirt, head lowered leaning against the bus window, stiff like a corpse, exuding a strange sense of weirdness.
“Lin Bei, a Buddhist Academy student who can fake death through sleeping. The fierce ghost he controls is suspected to be related to sleeping.”
A memory surfaced in his mind, and Jiang Shan recalled this man’s identity.
Unlike Yang Jian’s first time on the Ghost Bus, Xiao Chun City’s Xu Feng hadn’t boarded this Ghost Bus yet, so Lin Bei was sitting alone in the last row.
Both of them were Ghost Wielders, Jiang Shan was 100% sure.
There were also two others that made him suspicious: the two sisters sitting behind him to the right, who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old.
He didn’t know if it was an illusion or something, but on their bodies, Jiang Shan vaguely felt a strong malice.
Clearly, this pair of beautiful sisters looked very pretty,
but the faint gloomy deathly stillness on their faces made it hard not to feel psychologically uncomfortable.
Jiang Shan glanced at them and kept a sense of vigilance toward these two girls in his heart.
After observing around, he shifted his body and sat in the seat closest to the aisle.
Because he didn’t know when the Ghost Bus might encounter a special situation,
If it flamed out, this position would also make it easier for him to get off the bus—nothing but benefits.
Just as Jiang Shan sat down not long ago, the Ghost Bus suddenly stopped at a bus stop.
“Looks like the Ghost Bus is still in the Present World, so this time the people boarding are all ordinary people, no ghosts.”
Jiang Shan glanced out the window at the bustling urban area of Xiao Chun City, and he couldn’t help but silently mourn for the ordinary people about to board for a few seconds,
hoping only that they could get off early before the Ghost Bus entered the Supernatural World.
As for why Jiang Shan didn’t stop the crowd from boarding.
If he stood at the boarding door and prevented these people from getting on, not to mention whether they would curse him and ruin his mood.
Most importantly, if his unnecessary actions caused an error in the Ghost Bus’s basic logic.
Then, whether he would be attacked by the Ghost Bus was uncertain.
Trading his own life for others’ lives, and strangers at that.
Jiang Shan asked himself honestly—he couldn’t do it.
The people boarding at this bus stop seemed to be a tour group, about seven or eight people, all young faces.
After boarding, they started finding seats on their own. One girl saw Jiang Shan’s window seat with an empty spot next to it, and she sat down happily.
Among this group was a woman who looked relatively older. She wore a small red hat and a red vest. As soon as she got on, she was talking to the young people in the front row.
Because his body had become a Half-Anomaly, Jiang Shan’s five senses were greatly enhanced, so he heard the female tour guide’s words clearly. He only heard her say:
“Handsome guy, pretty girl, the company’s shuttle bus broke down, so we can only squeeze onto the bus with all you handsome guys and beautiful girls. Really sorry to everyone. Our company will definitely give satisfactory compensation afterward!”
“Looks like they really are just ordinary people.”
Jiang Shan narrowed his eyes observing the new group that boarded, and after finding no anomalies, he stopped paying attention, adjusted his position, and prepared to rest for a bit.
After all, driving continuously for six hours without a break was really exhausting.
If he could use the Dead Face Ghost’s Ghost Domain, following Yang Jian’s method, Jiang Shan’s time to reach Xiao Chun City would even only take a dozen minutes.
After waiting a few minutes, the Ghost Bus started again.
While Jiang Shan was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly he felt someone lightly pushing his shoulder with a hand.
“Hello, are you injured? I see your back is full of blood. Should I ask the driver to stop and call an ambulance for you?”
The girl next to Jiang Shan asked softly with a nervous expression.
This girl was Liu Yingying, a university student from the neighboring city. Just now, after finishing playing on her mobile phone, she inadvertently saw the bloodstains on Jiang Shan’s clothes.
This glance wasn’t careful, but upon closer look, she discovered: the seemingly cold boy next to her had his entire back covered in blood!
In an instant, countless possibilities flashed through Liu Yingying’s mind:
Vendetta killing;
Love killing;
Gangster on the run;
Debt dodger hacked.
When she saw Jiang Shan had closed his eyes, out of kindness she pushed his shoulder, worried that this boy might have fallen into a coma due to excessive blood loss.
“Normal human body temperature, looks like it’s not a Ghost Wielder testing me.” Jiang Shan thought to himself.
Because of his body’s abnormality now, his body temperature was always maintained at a very low level. Even through that layer of jacket, he could feel the temperature from that hand.
Since there was temperature, it meant the owner of this hand wasn’t a ghost, but a person.
After instantly making the judgment, Jiang Shan’s tense body relaxed. Hearing the girl’s question, he slowly opened his eyes and looked over.
“I’m fine. This clothing is a prop from the film crew. I just got off work after doing an extra.” Jiang Shan smiled at the girl.
“Oh, oh, like that, hahaha.”
Liu Yingying awkwardly scratched her head, trying to cover the awkwardness with laughter, but after laughing, seeing Jiang Shan’s calm gaze, she felt even more embarrassed.
Just as their conversation ended, the female tour guide suddenly stood up from the front row. She looked puzzled at the roadsides, then loudly asked toward the driver’s seat:
“Driver, isn’t this the wrong route? This isn’t heading toward the Xiao Chun City Museum either.”
The female tour guide’s words instantly drew the attention of others on the bus. Except for that group of university students who didn’t seem local, most of the remaining people furrowed their brows and also looked toward the roadsides.
When they discovered the route was really wrong, someone else spoke up questioning:
“Where the hell did you bring us? Is this still inside Xiao Chun City? Driver, did you take the wrong way?!”
They waited a full few minutes with no response.
Before the female tour guide could speak, a burly man stood up from his seat and stormed toward the driver’s seat aggressively.
“Damn it, are you sleeping here?!”
When the man reached the driver’s seat and looked inside, he saw the driver with a pale face, head lowered, sitting there as if asleep.
A surge of anger instantly rushed to the man’s heart. Originally today, his private casino had been raided by the police, and the houses and cars under his name were also seized by the authorities.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have stooped to taking a rundown bus.
And now the driver of this bus was sleeping on the job?
“What rotten luck!”
The man, full of pent-up anger, emanated heavy hostility. He raised his hand, gathered his strength, and fiercely slapped toward the “driver’s” head.
He wanted to use this opportunity to vent the anger in his heart!
Before the man struck, he had already found an excuse for the driver in his mind:
“Anyway, the driver was fatigued driving first, so even if a civil dispute arises, I’m in the right.”
Reminding a dangerous driver, this was called:
“Serving the country and the people, selfless!”
