Chapter 233: The Destination of the Supernatural Journey?
And there are two more questions: will these ghosts behind Chu Jiang also get on the car with him? And can Chu Jiang really survive and reach the destination with the ghosts?
Chu Jiang’s thinking process was extremely fast, taking less than a second for him to take out a Soul Guide Incense.
Instead of lighting it on the spot, Chu Jiang quickly moved through the darkness and arrived several tens of meters away.
He first took out a incense burner and inserted a stick of incense into it. Then, at the top of the incense, he tied a small piece of string. The other end of the string was connected to a remote control igniter.
This igniter was sent together with the Soul Guide Incense by the research institute. Its prototype is a firecracker remote igniter, which is also available for purchase online, costing only a few dollars.
Of course, the ignition developed by the research institute is much stronger than the ones sold online, and it also has a longer effective range.
Making all the preparations, Chu Jiang quickly ran back to the taxi, afraid that the car would drive away.
However, just as Chu Jiang’s left hand reached for the door handle, he felt something touching his skin.
It was a cold and chilly figure, which initially only reached his waist, but once touched, it immediately spread to his entire back.
Chu Jiang decisively pressed the remote controller in his right hand, while reaching backwards with his left hand!
A dark blue hand firmly grasped some invisible force, preventing it from further invading his body.
The Soul Guide Incense quickly ignited, and a strange fragrance drifted away. Even if a living person smelled it, it would create a sense of tranquility and peace.
Under the attraction of this fragrance, Chu Jiang felt the cold power behind him slowly leaving his body. It wasn’t too fast, but it was indeed leaving.
So he gradually loosened his grip, now the most important thing was to get in the car, not to be entangled with ghosts here.
Wait! Chu Jiang noticed something strange. The "female passenger" in the taxi slightly turned her head and looked in this direction.
It was also attracted by the Soul Guide Incense. Does it also want to get off?
No, maybe this is a good thing. You all get off, I’ll go alone.
But before the female ghost got off, Chu Jiang realized that something was off with the taxi. It turned its head as if it was going to rush towards the Soul Guide Incense.
This made Chu Jiang feel like hitting someone, oh no, hailing a taxi. Why is a car following along for the fun?
There’s no time to waste. Chu Jiang opened the door and rushed into the car, locking the door behind him.
"Drive! Driver, drive!!"
While shouting, Chu Jiang slapped the seat. If he could drive this car, he would have gone to the driver’s seat from the back.
Under the urging of the passengers, the taxi seemed to remember its duty. It slowly steered the front of the car in the right direction and drove towards the road ahead…
During this process, Chu Jiang once again picked at his left eye, daring to turn his left eye back for a glance.
With just one quick glance, Chu Jiang quickly retracted his eye, afraid that the ghosts behind him would catch up.
However, this quick glance was enough for Chu Jiang to see clearly. Behind him, there were hundreds of ghosts swarming around the incense burner, even more than when Chu Jiang first saw them!
This place is really messed up. How long has it been since he got off the car and he already attracted so many ghosts?
That piece of Soul Guide Incense probably won’t last for even two or three minutes before being completely consumed.
"Drive faster, driver!" Chu Jiang couldn’t help but yell. He suddenly rushed to the front and tried to grab the steering wheel, stepping on the gas pedal forcefully.
But the gas pedal wouldn’t move. If Chu Jiang wanted to force it, he would have to give it a punch.
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Jiang decided not to do it. He didn’t have confidence in waiting for a third car on this road.
Just then, Chu Jiang’s vision blurred for a moment. He felt as if everything he saw had turned upside down, as if the entire world had flipped.
It was a very strange feeling. The sky was pitch black below, and the silent road was above. Chu Jiang sat in an old-fashioned taxi hanging upside down on the road. What he saw seemed real, yet all was illusory.
Immersed in this peculiar state, after a few seconds, Chu Jiang suddenly realized something was wrong.
In this topsy-turvy state, his movements became somewhat stiff as he awkwardly retreated to the backseat of the taxi.
When Chu Jiang had fully settled down, the entire world instantly flipped back. The sky was still above, the road still below, and he was sitting comfortably in the taxi. Everything was back to normal.
However, Chu Jiang was drenched in sweat. He looked at the female ghost in the passenger seat, who remained motionless, just gazing forward without any intention to harm Chu Jiang.
Luckily, luckily, it shouldn’t have triggered her murderous tendencies. It was just that Chu Jiang had been too close to her earlier, and unconsciously felt her influence.
This ghost… was very special. Chu Jiang felt that it truly had the ability to turn the whole world upside down.
This reminded Chu Jiang of the distinguishing characteristics of an S-class ghost, which often possessed at least one nearly unsolvable abnormal ability, including manipulating space.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that this female ghost is an S-class ghost. It’s just that Chu Jiang suddenly made that connection in his mind.
The female ghost is very scary, even if she’s not an S-class ghost, just an A-class or even B-class, don’t provoke her easily.
Stay away from the female ghost as much as possible and position yourself diagonally opposite her, then Chu Jiang can observe what’s happening behind.
After a quick look with his left eye, Chu Jiang couldn’t see the ghost anymore, it seemed like they hadn’t caught up.
This is a rare piece of good news.
Now, we need to think about where to get off. It seems like there’s more than one taxi, and they carry not only people but ghosts too.
What mysterious force is controlling all of this from behind?
Chu Jiang tried dialing the satellite phone again, hoping to reach his operator, but it still didn’t work.
Helpless, he could only sit in the car and wait patiently, while also paying attention to any changes outside the window and any new danger inside the car…
After about an hour of driving, the taxi suddenly encountered a thick fog ahead, everything became a white blur, and nothing could be seen clearly.
Chu Jiang suddenly feels energetic, are we finally reaching our destination?
The taxi drives steadily into the fog, and in the fog, Chu Jiang suddenly hears a strange sound, "ding-ding-ding~~!" He even sees some blinking red lights in the distance.
This sound gives Chu Jiang a strange sense of familiarity. He must have heard it before, but where? For a moment, he can’t remember.
As the fog in front of the car gradually dissipates, Chu Jiang realizes that the taxi is actually driving on a railroad track?!
Yes, it’s that kind of railroad track where trains run.
In that instant, Chu Jiang remembers! He heard this kind of sound in some animations from a certain island country.
Although the island country is small, there are tens of thousands of railroad crossings nationwide, called "railway level crossings."
Because there are so many crossings, when a train is about to pass, warning sounds will be heard, lights will flash, and the crossing barrier will come down, reminding pedestrians to wait beside the crossing.
After the train passes, pedestrians can cross through the crossing.
Just now, Chu Jiang heard the sound of the island country’s railway crossing alarm.
Hey, hey, is it possible that he went abroad? Is it really that exaggerated…
