Chapter 65: The Little Girl Holding The Porcelain Bottle
Jiang Shan frowned tightly. He was very familiar with the fetid smell permeating the air; it was the smell of flesh and blood that had rotted for a long time mixed with fresh blood.
Unlike the fetid smell of ghost blood, this scent seemed to have fermented for a long time. Just smelling it for that moment made one’s heart feel intensely uneasy.
“What the hell is this thing! Mom!” A girl on the bus screamed in fear.
Not only did Jiang Shan see the weird Buddhist pagoda outside, but the others on the bus saw it too. Their hearts all began to pound wildly in unison.
No one dared to speak, and no one dared to get off the bus.
Even Lin Bei, who had been on the ghost bus for a while, now had an extremely ugly expression on his face.
The atmosphere was oppressively despairing.
A platform suddenly appeared abruptly on the road passing by this temple. The modern bus station looked out of place with the temple.
At the station, a weird tiny figure was standing there, seemingly waiting to board.
Jiang Shan merely glanced from afar at the Buddhist pagoda built of white bone, and a strong sense of unease surged in his heart.
The dead face ghost in his body was in fear!
It wasn’t just the dead face ghost; even his half-anomaly body was now involuntarily resisting.
Jiang Shan’s body was resisting all his actions, as if getting off the bus would lead to unimaginable terror!
“Dong dong dong~!”
A sudden crashing sound came from the front door, instantly terrifying everyone on the bus.
The sound was like several marbles placed in a porcelain jar, produced by the porcelain bottle colliding with the marbles.
But everyone present knew no one would pull such a prank. The source of the sound could only be a ghost!
“Dong~dong~!”
A little girl in red clothes, hugging a porcelain bottle taller than her by half a head, staggered onto the bus. Her clothes were tattered, like a little beggar by the roadside in the Republic of China era, instantly evoking pity at first sight.
But no one felt pity. There was only fear in everyone’s eyes!
Because of the porcelain bottle, the bus couldn’t see the little girl’s face—or rather, her face had fused with the porcelain bottle! As she approached, everyone saw the source of the red on her clothes.
Blood!
Dried blood!
Everyone on the bus had pounding hearts, not even daring to breathe. Their gazes were fixed dead on the little girl, watching where she would sit.
The fear this little girl brought them far exceeded that of the grave crying ghost. A chill inexplicably rose from the bottom of everyone’s heart.
Just as the little girl was looking for a seat, Jiang Shan noticed,
As soon as she boarded, the number on the electronic screen inside the bus changed.
It was 1 before, but now it flickered abruptly and became 6.
It jumped by 5 numbers directly.
One ghost boarded, but the ghost bus recorded five ghosts!
“What the hell, what’s going on, five ghosts?”
Jiang Shan’s expression changed drastically. He remembered that when Meng Xiaodong boarded the ghost bus back then, the display only jumped by two numbers.
But what was the deal with this ghost in the form of a little girl?
The number recorded by the ghost bus wouldn’t mark randomly; it precisely recorded the number of ghosts in the compartment.
In other words.
This little girl appeared to board alone as one ghost, but in reality, she brought four more ghosts with her.
“Is it that porcelain bottle?”
Jiang Shan’s eyes narrowed, his gaze fixed on the weird porcelain bottle,
The porcelain bottle looked nothing special; its old appearance was no different from antique porcelain bottles in those curio shops, except for the little girl’s face stuck tightly to it. Jiang Shan really couldn’t spot any other anomalies.
“What a joke, this thing would require the Cave Emperor to handle.”
Jiang Shan silently took out the straw rope. Still uneasy, he then held the white cloth with a crying face in his hand.
He already had a new use for this crying face.
Since the crying face also counted as one ghost, if he encountered a fierce ghost, he could completely stick this white cloth onto the ghost’s face.
Whether the crying face ghost confronted the ghost or fused into its puzzle piece would not be up to Jiang Shan to decide.
He would only choose to use the crying face as a last resort when absolutely necessary.
But now.
Jiang Shan clutched two ghosts tensely, watching the little girl. He didn’t know if this ghost would suddenly attack on the ghost bus, but being cautious was always right.
Perhaps because the porcelain bottle was too big to squeeze into a seat, under everyone’s gaze, the little girl hugging the porcelain bottle went straight and sat beside Lin Bei in the last row of seats on the bus.
“!!!”
Lin Bei sucked in a sharp breath, his face ashen as he looked at the little girl sitting beside him, cold sweat pouring down his body.
Time ticked by second by second,
Aside from this ghost in the form of a little girl boarding, no other ghosts appeared.
The moment the bus door closed, seeing the little girl remain in a deathly stillness, Jiang Shan breathed a sigh of relief and put away the crying face.
But he still kept the ghost rope in his hand for precautions.
Time flew by to the day after Jiang Shan boarded the ghost bus.
Beyond everyone’s expectations, after that little girl hugging the porcelain bottle boarded, for the next full day, the ghost bus didn’t stop at any supernatural world station, nor did it stop in the real world.
The ghost bus seemed to have a clear destination, heading unstoppably toward an unknown place.
“Does anyone have food? My daughter and I are starving. I just want a bite of food, just one bite.”
A pleading voice suddenly rang out in the deathly still bus. The speaker was an old lady, her face somewhat pale and weak as she said:
“Please, everyone, I’m so hungry I’m dizzy and seeing stars. I’m going to starve to death.”
Jiang Shan glanced at the mother and daughter pair but said nothing.
Ever since his body was eroded by those three ghosts and turned into a half-anomaly, he hadn’t felt any physiological needs in his body.
From being picked up by Chen Yue until boarding the ghost bus, Jiang Shan hadn’t eaten or drunk for a whole day, yet even now he felt no hunger at all.
Moreover, he had boarded the ghost bus in a hurry back then, so he carried no food.
“Can’t help.”
Seeing everyone choose silence, the old lady, already dizzy from hunger, suddenly stood up and angrily cursed loudly:
“I’m about to starve to death and you all don’t care? I clearly saw he has food in his pocket. Can’t you share a little? A bunch of heartless things. I’m at least your elder, are you all mute?”
The old lady angrily pointed at Zhang Dongxing beside Jiang Shan. Not long ago, she had seen Zhang Dongxing eating something unknown, so she was sure he had food on him.
Jiang Shan unhesitatingly drew his gun and aimed it at the snarling old lady, his cold voice carrying threat and killing intent:
“Sit down immediately, or I’ll kill you right now.”
Once the ghost bus started moving, without a seat, walking around on the bus would cause unknown changes.
Especially now in this special situation where the ghost bus wasn’t stopping, no one knew what unexpected change might occur. Even Jiang Shan didn’t dare nap lightly, always ready to handle sudden situations.
Wanting food was no problem, but her standing up while the ghost bus was moving was endangering everyone!
The old lady froze upon seeing the gun barrel. Starving to madness, she didn’t care and was about to speak.
Suddenly, the ghost bus made a sharp brake, flipping her off her seat onto the ground.
Lin Bei and Jiang Shan, also feeling the ghost bus’s sharp brake, changed expressions. They both knew:
The bus,
Stopped.
The following plot is very important; it can be said to be the key to Jiang Shan’s seal gods ability, and it’s all original plot. I’ve already outlined the subsequent plot. If I can write it out, I’ll update more to ensure the brothers enjoy it!!!
