Chapter 94: Divine Being, Three Disasters And Eight Tribulations
After Jiang Shan sat in the driver’s seat of the Ghost Bus, no weird phenomena occurred.
At this time, the wheels of the Ghost Bus were still turning nonstop, but it, stuck in place, could not move an inch.
“After the Ghost Blood fused with the Ghost Characters, the suppression power far exceeded before. Although it is incomplete, I don’t need to drive the Ghost Bus for a long time. I just need to shift into reverse, and the Ghost Bus can drive out from where it’s stuck.” Jiang Shan thought to himself while looking at the gear shift beside him.
Following the method Yang Jian once used to drive the Ghost Bus, to control the supernatural vehicle, one must first form suppression. Only after suppression succeeds can you seize a portion of control.
Bright red Ghost Characters overlapped each other, densely crawling all over Jiang Shan’s hands.
Immediately after, a piece of Silver Light began spreading from his body, stopping only when it reached the gear shift.
Although ghosts can be suppressed on the bus, it does not completely immobilize them. Fierce Ghost power can still be used on the bus, but it is subject to very great restrictions.
So Jiang Shan not only chose the Ghost Characters but also activated the Dead Face Ghost that can devour supernatural phenomena.
“Although it can only devour a very small amount of supernatural phenomena, that is enough.”
After suppression and devouring were stacked, Jiang Shan began attempting to shift into reverse.
The Ghost Bus’s reverse gear is backward, which is undoubtedly even more effortless and fitting.
Even so, when he pulled backward, it was like turning some heavy jammed object; an immense resistance came from his hand.
“Clack clack”
A strange sound came from the gear shift, as if the gears were jammed or something had gone wrong somewhere.
Suddenly Jiang Shan felt his whole body instantly cool, just like when something good is about to happen. That feeling of inspiration made him instantly understand something.
The Luck Ghost’s good luck produced some unknown effect. Taking advantage of this feeling, Jiang Shan yanked backward fiercely.
“It’s in!”
Seeing the reverse gear engaged, Zhang Dongxing’s face lit up with joy as he exclaimed in his heart.
Next,
Jiang Shan in the driver’s seat had veins bulging; he gripped the gear shift tightly with both hands, holding on for a full seven or eight seconds.
After suddenly feeling a jolt, his gaze glanced outside the bus and discovered that the Ghost Bus had already driven out of the Mud House, so he instantly released his hands.
With the suppression gone, the Ghost Bus’s gear immediately returned to neutral, and control was taken away.
As time gradually passed.
When the Ghost Bus that had left the Mud House returned to the “right track,” it shuttled between the Supernatural Land and the Real World as usual.
Perhaps because of the Luck Ghost, the rest of the journey had no sudden situations.
Not to mention Flame Out or ghosts blocking the bus.
Even passing more than a dozen stops, with over forty ghosts getting on and off, it didn’t even reach full capacity.
In a certain sense.
Jiang Shan and Zhang Dongxing were indeed very lucky, but in another sense, very unlucky.
Because the Ghost Bus drove for a full two days without ever stopping at a stop in the Real World.
Five days without eating or drinking.
Jiang Shan’s condition was barely able to keep him Alive.
As for Zhang Dongxing, without supernatural power sustaining his Life, he would have long been deader than dead.
At this time, his body had already developed severe malnutrition.
Plus the Ghost Bus stopped at stations with short intervals, not allowing enough rest.
Zhang Dongxing, with both body and mind on the verge of collapse, had fallen into a Coma; his entire state was almost no different from a dead person.
With the Ghost Bus’s forward progress,
At a certain moment, the unchanging scenery outside the window finally changed.
A lively and prosperous Street appeared before Jiang Shan. As the doors slowly opened, the long-missed Real World atmosphere surged into the bus.
Seeing Zhang Dongxing had lost Consciousness, Jiang Shan stood up from the driver’s seat, picked him up, and walked toward getting off the bus.
“Hey hey hey, why are you the driver getting off? You’re not driving, making us drive? I’ve already paid! What kind of thing is this? Wait for me to report you!” said a woman who had just gotten on.
“Damn, what’s that smell on him? Why is he covered in blood? Get off quick, get off quick!”
Most people on and off the bus noticed Jiang Shan’s abnormality.
Some angrily picked up the Phone to report him, while others noticed the blood on him and got off the bus with terrified faces.
As for Jiang Shan, he ignored these people and casually hailed a Taxi and got in.
“To the nearest Gold Shop.”
The middle-aged man about to drive suddenly smelled a strange foul odor. He looked back through the rearview mirror.
A man covered in dark red Weirdness sat in the back seat, with another person beside him. That person had a pale face with no sign of life.
Like a dead person!
“Brother, this fare of yours…”
The man frowned tightly, his tone revealing deep dissatisfaction, but before he finished speaking, a gold ring was shoved in his face.
“Pure gold, 12 grams. I don’t need to tell you the gold price. Let’s go, or I’ll find someone else.” Jiang Shan said.
This ring was one he had just pulled off Zhang Dongxing’s Finger. After these five days of events, forget money and Bank Card—he was now in tattered Clothes, barely covered.
“No no no brother, for this fare, I’ll take you no matter what!”
Seeing the gold ring, the man’s eyes lit up. He took it and carefully confirmed several times that it was real gold.
Whatever dead person, whatever beggar.
As long as the money was right, he dared to take even a ghost!
The delighted man feared Jiang Shan would change his mind. Even at a red light, he ignored it and floored the accelerator toward the nearest Gold Shop.
A few minutes later,
Jiang Shan briskly sold the Gold Box. Standing at the Gold Shop entrance, he thought for a moment and finally decided to go to the Hospital to rest and recuperate.
Although Zhang Dongxing was a Ghost Wielder, the Luck Ghost did not Exist within Zhang Dongxing’s body. If his condition continued to worsen, perhaps without the Luck Ghost’s Resurrection, he would starve to death.
After spending a large sum of money,
Jiang Shan finally arranged everything properly at a private Hospital in Dasha City.
Refusing all checks, after taking a shower, he lay on the hospital bed in the private ward, closed his eyes, and fell directly into a deep sleep.
After all, five straight days of high mental tension were enough to drive anyone mad.
Even if the body could endure, for the mind, it was absolutely at the limit’s edge.
Because Jiang Shan chose a private Hospital this time, under heavy payment, they didn’t even register him.
So neither Headquarters nor anyone paying attention to Jiang Shan had any information about him.
An extremely peaceful sleep.
Two days later.
Jiang Shan opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. After resting for a while, he looked around.
On the Table beside him were the Clothes and Mobile Phone he had asked someone to buy before sleeping.
With a flash of Silver Light, a black Handbag that had previously been buried thousands of meters underground appeared before him.
The Handbag contained a Rusty Chain and several ghosts wrapped in Gold Leaf.
Jiang Shan put on the Clothes, got out of bed, checked the Handbag, and found nothing missing. He looked out the window, lit a cigarette, and thought to himself while smoking:
“Without sufficient identity to Handle these matters, it’s indeed too troublesome. Perhaps I should ask Zhao Jianguo for an International Criminal Police identity. At least that can provide me with a lot of convenience.”
After getting off the Ghost Bus, this series of events really made Jiang Shan feel weary. If someone could Handle these things for him, it would save a lot of time and effort.
“If no Unexpected Change occurred, the Starving Ghost should have grown to the fourth stage by now.”
Jiang Shan searched on his Mobile Phone for the latest news about Dachang City and confirmed that the Starving Ghost Incident had been happening for quite some time.
He glanced at the map to confirm Dachang City’s location, then picked up the Handbag and walked out of the Hospital.
Subsequently, a dazzling Silver Light appeared in the sky above Dasha City.
Spanning a thousand miles.
