Chapter 321 Broken Headlights (Happy New Year!)
Countless “Jiang Shan” holding candles have surrounded the ghost bus. They have strange smiles on their faces, making everyone on the bus feel chilled.

“Where’s Jiang Shan? These are definitely not him! Where are the others?”

“Why isn’t the door closed yet? Damn it!”

The sour smell in the air became stronger and stronger, and the breath of death like poison gas rushed into everyone’s brain like crazy. Some people even started shouting in horror.

“It’s closed! It’s closed!”

Someone shouted, and everyone’s eyes were instantly focused on the car door.

At this moment, “Jiang Shan” who was about to get on the car seemed to have encountered some invisible resistance. He stood straight at the door and did not move.

Although the door of the ghost bus was not completely closed, it was nearly half closed and could barely allow a thin person to pass through.

suddenly,

A piece of scarlet blood-like text followed the silver light on the ground and shuttled under the feet of the crowd like a poisonous snake, and began to spread madly towards the door of the ghost bus.

Some of the “Jiang Shan” who accidentally came into contact with the “Blood Silver Red Snake” felt as if their souls were sucked out, and the candles in their hands were instantly extinguished.

“boom!”

At some point, the bus doors slammed shut.

“The car door is finally closed, huh.”

“Jiang Shan didn’t get on the bus, and those Jiang Shans didn’t get on the bus either. Damn it, we were almost killed by him!”

As the car door closed, everyone in the car had an expression of surviving a disaster. The Jiang Shan holding the candles was really too weird.

It is clear,
They are all ghosts.

And it seemed that it was because Jiang Shan got out of the car and went to the intersection to snatch things from the ghosts that he attracted such a group of terrifying ghosts.

So some people are already cursing at this moment:

“A little brat with a small arm, he was so lucky that he managed to control a few ghosts. He really doesn’t know how to show off. That was obviously a trap set by the ghosts. He walked into the trap and wanted to die. I can’t do anything about it, but he almost got killed by me. What a beast!”

“Are you done scolding?”

A calm voice suddenly sounded from somewhere in the carriage.

“Who?!”

The familiar voice made the man who was cursing Jiang Shan feel cold all over. He looked in the direction of the voice, but what he saw was Jiang Shan who was unharmed!

“!”

Before the man could come to his senses, a long black whip flew towards him as fast as lightning.

After a loud noise.

“Ahhhh~!”

I saw one of the man’s arms being knocked off by the long black whip.

At this moment, the man’s broken arm was bleeding and he was kneeling on the ground wailing in pain.

Even a ghost rider can still feel pain when the ghost’s erosion is not too deep, so the pain of having his arm broken alive made the man experience the price of his bad mouth.

“At this intersection, some of them saw a mountain of gold, while I saw a pile of ghost money. But the ‘past me’ just now did get the ghost money, and the ghost money was real.”

“Even if I fought hard enough to revive the evil spirits, I couldn’t survive the attacks of these ghosts? And I have no memory of being attacked. Are these ghosts like the ghost heads able to steal memories?”

Jiang Shan, who was sitting in the back seat of the ghost bus, stared at the strange intersection ahead with a serious expression.

When he saw the intersection piled with ghost money, he summoned his past self over, so the person who got off the bus just now was not him, but his past self.

It’s all for that pile of ghost money at the intersection.

If those ghost coins really exist, then their value is inestimable. “The past Jiang Shan” just grabbed a handful, and the face value of the ghost coins in his hand added up to hundreds.

And what he got was not even one thousandth of the “ghost money pile”!

“It seems that the ghosts that set traps at this crossroads are very similar to the ghost road in Baishui Town. They both turn what people want most or what they want to save into reality. As long as they have enough power, fantasy can become reality.”

Mountains of gold, mountains of silver, and piles of ghost money.

Real ghost money.

All these things made Jiang Shan think of the plot in the original novel where Zhang Xianguang and Yang Jian discussed the Road of the Dead.

Zhang Xianguang said that he brought his mother on the road of the dead to reality. Even though the “mother” who came back to life became increasingly weird, the ghost’s supernatural power did turn the disappeared illusion into reality.

And the ghost that left a pile of ghost money at the intersection is exactly the same.

“Puzzle?”

Jiang Shan shook his head slightly, then returned to the driver’s seat with a calm expression, smoking a cigarette.

That calm expression was as if the brink of life and death just now was no big deal.

He is sometimes unwilling to take risks because the benefits are lower than the risks;
But when all this is turned upside down and the benefits are extremely beneficial to him, he becomes a madman again, killing people without blinking an eye, daring to fleece the sheep in the supernatural world, without fear of life or death.

Just as everyone was still in a daze and Jiang Shan walked towards the driver’s seat,
The ghost bus had now arrived in front of the pile of ghost money with different things piled up, but it seemed to have encountered no resistance. It went straight through the pile of ghost money under Jiang Shan’s gaze like a ghost.

Jiang Shan didn’t say anything, but just looked back at the intersection they had just passed.

A horrifying scene happened.

All the ghost money at the intersection just now has disappeared. There is no so-called naked beauty; there are no piles of gold ingots. Everything has returned to normal.

But what was abnormal was that in the same position there were people with identical and extremely strange faces standing, at least hundreds of them.

Through the faint light of the candle, one could vaguely see that it was Jiang Shan’s face on each person’s face.

These gingers held candles in their hands, and the scarlet flames looked like the few sparks on the grassland, but in this black and white world they were as chilling as blood.

Other people also saw this scene, and many of them broke out in cold sweats.

Until now, they still didn’t know when Jiang Shan got on the ghost bus; how on earth did he manage to survive in the hands of these ghosts?
And these things that look exactly like Jiang Shan, what are they?
Although these doubts filled everyone’s mind, they knew.

If it weren’t for the evil spirit standing at the car door blocking the door like a rock.

Once these ghost creatures get on the bus, they will probably tear the people in the bus to pieces alive.

Fortunately, nothing happened
Gradually, everyone found that the world around them gradually became colorful, and the ghost bus began to restore its original color. Another long, winding and quiet road appeared in front of them, exactly the same as before.

At this time, many people slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense atmosphere in the carriage gradually eased.

After all, the situation encountered in that county town was too horrific. If there was any unexpected change, everyone on the bus would most likely be wiped out.

Although the “culprit” of all this was smoking calmly in the driver’s seat, no one dared to express dissatisfaction. Because after escaping from danger, Jiang Shan was even more terrifying than a ghost.

As the vehicle travels longer.

A feeling of worry and anxiety gradually came over me.

The bus had been driving for a full half hour since leaving the strange county town. During this half hour, nothing unusual happened and everything seemed so calm.

But when something different from the previous scenery appeared on the roadside, everyone knew it.

The bus is not far from the next stop.

At this moment, Jiang Shan gave up recalling his past experiences outside the car. His attention shifted and he began to pay attention to the changes in the scenery outside, because he also felt that this journey was a bit long and they might be arriving at the station soon.

“It seems that I will not be able to go to the ‘Slaughterhouse’ this time. Although the original book does not clearly state the route of the ghost bus, based on Yang’s various experiences, its route is planned to a certain extent.”

“The white bone pagoda we passed by, the ghost porcelain girl who got on the bus, and the special stop where the ghost bus seemed to have stalled due to some special supernatural means, it’s obvious that these correspond to each other.”

He began to recall the different rules about the ghost bus. This ghost was really strange, both for humans and for animals.

Both humans and ghosts can get on the car, and the most important thing is that it can travel through supernatural places.

The last point is the most important.
What is a haunted place? What is its nature? Where is it?

This “mystery” that runs through the entire book was not solved until the end.

Yang Jian’s deification is unrepeatable.
This also means that if others want to become gods, they must understand more about the supernatural and master more secrets about the supernatural.

Time passes slowly every second.

At some point, the ghost bus was surrounded by a thin layer of white mist.

Even though this layer of white fog was not as thick as the smog in some cities, it was such a thin layer that even Jiang Shan, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, could not see anything three meters away.

“Ghostland?”

Jiang Shan murmured in his heart the first moment he found that his vision was blocked by the spirit.

At the same time, he was also paying close attention, because the appearance of the white fog that was suspected to be the ghost domain meant that the ghost bus would soon arrive at the next stop.

Sudden.

The bus was running normally when it suddenly braked. Everyone in the bus, even the ghosts in the seats, began to shake.

“What happened? Sudden brakes? Is there some emergency?” In an instant, everyone became suspicious.

Some people even suspected that Jiang Shan suddenly stepped on the brakes when he was bored.

After all, Jiang Shan was sitting in the driver’s seat. Although no one knew whether he had the ability or not, he was the most suspicious person at this time.

“No, that’s not it, not the emergency brake!”

Someone suddenly noticed something and shouted.

Subsequently,

The lights in the car began to flicker, as if they would go out at any moment.

In addition, the entire car seemed to have suddenly lost power after the sudden brake, and the speed slowed down all of a sudden, and it kept getting slower and slower, and it even seemed to be stopping.

“Damn it, it’s stalling, the bus is stalling.”

A bespectacled ghost rider in the car stood up suddenly, a look of horror on his face.

Everything happened so suddenly, without any warning.

The bus seemed to have a sudden problem while driving on the road and suddenly stalled. This stalling situation was slightly different from the last time Yang Jian encountered it, but the nature was the same.

The lights in the car flickered, sometimes going off and sometimes flashing.

“Turn off the engine. What happens when you turn off the engine?”

Someone asked hurriedly, and it was obvious that this person had just got on the bus and was not very aware of this special situation.

The ghost driver immediately explained: “After the engine is turned off, the bus suddenly loses its supernatural power and breaks down on the road. At that time, all the people and ghosts have to get off the bus until the bus restarts, and then they can get on the bus again.”

“I’ve experienced a flameout before, but don’t worry, the flameout time varies, and if you’re lucky, it might restart immediately, and…”

Before the man with glasses could finish, the other man asked in horror, “What if you are unlucky? How long will it take?”

“It could take ten minutes or even half an hour. But what you should worry about is not this. When we turn off the engine and get off the car, the ghosts will have to get off as well. Once we get off the car, these ghosts will start to revive and move around.” The man with glasses said solemnly.

It is obvious that this man with glasses is not an ordinary ghost rider.

After all, anyone who can survive a flameout on a ghost bus must have some skills.

“But it’s okay this time. Even if these ghosts revive and start to move, there are only three ghosts in this car at most. There are eleven of us in total. Even if we are unlucky, the probability of surviving together is still very high. And Minister Jiang is here, what are you afraid of?”

Then his eyes moved to the others.

After hearing his words, the pale faces of the others finally eased a little.

Eleven ghost riders against three ghosts, no matter what, the possibility of their survival is still very high.

Moreover, the meaning of the last sentence of the man with glasses is very clear. If there is an extremely terrifying existence among these three ghosts, there will be a tall man to hold up the sky if it falls.

After all, the ghost didn’t just attack them and not Jiang Shan.

At that time, even for self-protection, Jiang Shan would choose to take action. In this way, the threat posed by ghosts to them would be greatly reduced.

Everyone was just feeling relieved when suddenly the ghost bus began to shake violently.

The entire carriage seemed to have turned into an out-of-control rocking car. The violent shaking almost shook everyone off their seats, and even some ghosts broke free from their seats.

“What’s wrong? What’s going on?!”

A ghost rider who was shaken dizzy asked loudly.

“Be prepared. The ghost bus is not just stalled. If I’m not mistaken, it’s a ghost that’s stopping the bus.”

Jiang Shan, sitting in the driver’s seat, was like a mountain, steady and unmoving, as he spoke slowly.

A fully developed deceptive ghost, its supernatural power can even temporarily deceive the ghost bus, making it think that the position where Jiang Shan is sitting is independent, so he will be as steady as a rock as if he is not affected at all.

And it was precisely because he was not affected that he was able to discover it.

One of the ghost bus’s lights broke at some point.
