Chapter 164: The Young Miss
To be honest, Chu Jiang also read online novels, so he naturally knew the tricks in those novels.
He always wanted to make a point about the beginning of time travel stories. It’s always "strange ceiling…" and always "woke up…"
Can’t you change the formula??
But now, it’s his turn to face this situation, Chu Jiang can’t laugh anymore.
What a joke, it’s definitely not time travel. Either he’s still dreaming, or he’s in the old man’s Ghost Domain.
Thinking of this, Chu Jiang immediately tore off the strips of cloth wrapped around him.
During this process, pieces of black scabs fell off his body, revealing the fair and tender skin underneath, just like a newborn baby.
This made Chu Jiang somewhat unbelievable. Is he really still a human?
It can be said that Chu Jiang’s entire skin has been replaced now, and even his flesh might have been replaced, probably only the skeleton hasn’t been changed yet.
Oh, right, your hands!
Chu Jiang lowered his head and saw that his dark blue-black hands, which had looked like dead bodies before, had unknowingly returned to normal human appearance.
Something very strange had happened – Chu Jiang now had two ghosts inside him. Normally, his body would gradually die and transform into that of a dead person.
These signs had already appeared when he was being invaded by the Blood Hand Ghost.
The living blood inside him was slowly being replaced by ghostly blood; he could even feel his heartbeat slowing down, his blood getting colder, and his body temperature dropping.
Even though there was later a balance between the two ghosts, the erosion of the body by the ghosts was irreversible; the balance could only delay the process, not cure it.
However, what was amazing now was that after being partly burned by the Black Sun and having his entire body undergo a major blood transfusion, Chu Jiang felt "healthy" again.
If replacing body parts could resist the invasion, then that could be understood, because even a normal Ghost Master couldn’t replace body parts.
But Chu Jiang’s mental condition also seemed to have slightly improved, even though it was impossible for him to return to his normal state of mind as a regular person; he was no longer as indifferent and inconsiderate as he had been in the previous stage.
This is very unbelievable, can the soul really be reborn with the injuries of the body?
Looking back now, Ghost Diary has had really bad luck for generations, unexpectedly picked up by this guy named Chu Jiang.
Generally speaking, whether it’s an ordinary person or a Ghost Master, it’s very difficult to immediately escape from this state after being on the brink of death, they can only be obediently devoured by Ghost Diary.
Once death occurs in a state of being on the brink of death, the speed of devouring will increase dramatically.
But this weirdo Chu Jiang, he somehow has an incredibly strong ability to heal.
As a result, Ghost Diary has instead become a lifesaving tool for Chu Jiang.
Before being completely devoured by Ghost Diary, it’s very difficult to kill Chu Jiang with other ghosts, even if it’s an S-class ghost.
By the way, where is Ghost Diary? Chu Jiang looked on the bed but surprisingly didn’t find any trace of the diary.
He also searched inside the dark space of the Left Hand Ghost, but still nothing. There was only a red ball, which he had casually stuffed in there earlier.
Did someone who saved his diary take it away?
To be honest, Chu Jiang isn’t really afraid of losing this thing. Ghost Diary has been hoping for his death. As long as Chu Jiang is on the verge of death, that thing will definitely fly over to take his life.
Of course, not being afraid doesn’t mean he can just ignore it. Chu Jiang still has to borrow the abilities of the Ghost Diary.
Also, it seems like the curse of the Curse Tape has been spontaneously consumed by the diary. I wonder if it can provide Chu Jiang with a new diary and a new ability to borrow.
While Chu Jiang was contemplating, the door creaked open and someone entered.
Chu Jiang instinctively pulled the blanket over and covered himself.
"Oh, Miss, he’s awake," said a young servant girl dressed in blue clothes, probably around sixteen or seventeen years old.
Following behind the servant girl entering the room was a woman wearing a red qipao and high heels. She had a tall figure and a beautiful appearance.
She had long black hair, adorned with hairpins, and her qipao had a high slit, revealing smooth and fair thighs as she walked.
To tell the truth, when Chu Jiang saw this woman with pale complexion coming in, he felt like he was in a different time and place. Could it be not ancient times, but the Republican era?
Because whether it’s a cheongsam or high heels, they are not the attire of the ancient feudal dynasties.
In addition, after these two people came in, Chu Jiang always felt a creepy sensation from them.
Actually, these two people are indeed a bit strange, not to mention their pale complexion.
Although the little maid seems to be smiling, in reality, she is not really smiling. Her eyes are like those of a dead person, showing no emotional fluctuations at all.
As for the young lady, she is wearing bright red lipstick and her fingernails are also painted red. But instead, it enhances her eerie demeanor, making her seem unlike a living person.
Lastly, both of them walk without making any sound, and they can easily scare people in a different environment.
Seeing Chu Jiang sitting on the bed without a shirt, the young lady silently approaches. With an indifferent expression, she says, "You are the one I picked up. From today onwards, you are my servant."
"Xiao Yu, give him a set of clothes to wear, and also give him a tag."
"By the way, do you have a name? If not, I can give you one."
Faced with the woman’s condescending tone, Chu Jiang remained calm and simply looked at her, asking, "Who are you? Where am I?"
"How dare you speak to the young lady like that!" The maid crossed her arms and seemed a little angry.
With this action, she opened one eye on her left cheek, opened one eye on her right cheek, one eye on her nose bridge, and one eye on her forehead… Soon, the maid’s face was covered with countless eyeballs!
Each eyeball was restlessly moving, staring at Chu Jiang, as if trying to cover every inch of his flesh and blood.
Chu Jiang furrowed his brow slightly, sensing a hint of danger. Indeed, these two in front of him were not humans…
Both of them are ghosts? But how could ghosts engage in such a level of conversation with him, just like living beings?
The woman in the cheongsam waved her hand, and Xiao Yu immediately withdrew her hand, obediently closing her eyes on her face without leaving a trace.
"This is the Lin family mansion, and I am the young mistress of the Lin family."
"Get up quickly if there’s nothing wrong, come with me on a trip. In three days, it’s the birthday of the elderly gentleman, I need to pick a gift for him."
In Lin’s family, in Chu Jiang’s heart, he gradually confirmed that this was probably Lin Daosheng’s Ghost Domain.
But the other party, for some reason, didn’t send him outside, but instead kept him here as a "guest"?
What’s even more ridiculous is that the elderly gentleman let himself be found by his granddaughter, who seems unaware, and made him her servant directly.
