Chapter 260: Only One Way Left
"Hey, hey, don’t be so stingy. I’ll bring it back for you right away."
Chu Jiang tried to use the power of the Blood Hand Ghost to stop the black blood rushing towards him. He rushed towards the Ghost of the Open Door and punched it in the head!
The attacked Ghost of the Open Door naturally wouldn’t be polite to Chu Jiang. It immediately turned around and prepared to kill.
But if Chu Jiang could knock it down once, he could naturally knock it down a second time.
While Chu Jiang was beating up the Ghost of the Open Door, the Ghost Diary didn’t intend to give him time to tidy up.
Luckily, the Blood Hand Ghost had some restraint on the black blood flowing from the diary. The ability to control blood played a big role for the first time.
After Chu Jiang finished beating up the Ghost of the Open Door and put it back into the diary, the black blood finally flowed back and no longer tried to kill Chu Jiang.
Wiping away the nonexistent cold sweat on his forehead, Chu Jiang picked up the Ghost Diary again.
This thing is still the same as before. In the diary there is a lifelike ghost drawing, and Chu Jiang can still borrow the ghost’s abilities.
But this time, it’s also a way for Chu Jiang to test a new rule of the Ghost Diary:
Sealed ghosts can be taken out, but it’s like taking out the meat that was eaten and sealed inside the Ghost Diary, which will directly trigger an attack from the seal against the owner.
And Chu Jiang suspects that the longer the time drags on, the intensity of the attacks will increase. Remember, there are still three hundred and four chains on the Ghost Diary that haven’t been used on him.
In addition, Chu Jiang sealed back the freed door-opening ghost. But the firefighter wasn’t sent back to the castle, at least not back to the original place. Hopefully, he has safely returned to the real world.
Then it’s just Chu Jiang and police officer Michiko, holding the baby that he had put aside.
To be honest, Chu Jiang is a bit worried now.
Because his guess was correct. The purpose is not to kill the card holder; the purpose is to release the ghost.
But this way, it might not be so easy for Michiko and Chu Jiang to leave.
The reason is simple, the ghost on the firefighter card is likely a C-class ghost.
The door-opening ghost that was just released by the firefighter should also be at this level.
So even though it’s not the same ghost that was released, as long as the amount is the same, the castle will accept it.
Just like before when Black Sun was replaced with White Tiger, the castle doesn’t care which ghost is released, but there must be a ghost of corresponding amount released.
So here’s the problem, Ghost Bride is likely an A-class ghost, and White Tiger should be S-class, but there’s no mention of any A-class ghost, let alone an S-class, in Chu Jiang’s diary…
Wait, Chu Jiang remembered something. The zombie ghost lying in the dark purple coffin is currently considered to be sealed.
This ghost is a bit special. Normally, a regular seal shouldn’t be able to completely contain it. But it has been sealed for three to four hundred years and seems to have entered a deep slumber state, which is why it hasn’t broken out of the coffin.
If Chu Jiang were to release it from the coffin now, the zombie ghost is likely to be directly revived by the power of the castle.
This can be seen from the previous door-opening ghost. Under normal circumstances, a door-opening ghost would never immediately recover as soon as its chain is broken.
After thinking carefully, Chu Jiang felt that doing this would really lead to success.
But this comes with a price. Judging from the disappearance of the firefighter, once he succeeds, he will immediately be sent out of the castle. Then, won’t the zombie ghosts be left here?
No, they might be sent back to the real world by the castle, causing a huge disaster.
And on Michiko’s side, if Chu Jiang leaves, she’s as good as dead.
Unless Chu Jiang jumps into the pit and takes the risk to find and seal an A-class ghost.
Oh no, even if he does that, it’s impossible to succeed because a baby can’t release the ghost. Even if it’s not sealed in the Ghost Diary, but in a jar, it’s the same.
Because Michiko is really small right now, she can’t even hold a jar. In theory, it’s impossible for her to accidentally drop and break the jar.
While thinking about this, Chu Jiang opened the diary again. It was the second time he summoned the door-opening ghost and the second time he broke the chain. The Ghost Diary indeed retaliated a second time.
However, as Chu Jiang pushed the ghost back in, the Ghost Diary quieted down again.
Of course, if Chu Jiang keeps provoking Ghost Diary like this in a short time, it’s hard to say what the consequences will be.
After Chu Jiang did this, he didn’t disappear in the castle, which further proved his guess. The card he drew was an S-class one, so he can’t leave without releasing an S-class ghost.
This brings us back to the question of whether to use violence to break the deadlock or to give up the S-class zombie and Michiko and choose the safest way to escape.
Folding up the diary, Chu Jiang shook his head and stood up. Running away timidly was not his style; he would choose violence to break the deadlock.
And although it’s said to be a choice between three options, Chu Jiang only has one road to choose: that is to become highly Chu’s Jiang and gain even greater power.
Asking for help from the Holy Word Religion has been ruled out; letting the zombie out of the coffin would just send Chu Jiang away directly, so he can only choose option 1.
Holding the baby again, the little one is still sleeping, not waking up yet; her little face is rosy and chubby, very cute.
However, Chu Jiang is a bit worried because next he has to jump into a pit of many people and experience a life-and-death battle. It’s impossible for him to carry a baby on his back.
If he hides in the dark space of his left hand, that place is a supernatural space and cannot store air, so it’s definitely not possible to put the baby in there.
As for Ghost Diary, let’s not talk about whether the diary can seal people or not, even if it can, there is definitely no air inside.
What should we do then? We can’t just leave it on the ground, it’s even more unsafe to take it back to the previous room.
Unfortunately, Chu Jiang only has one high-end oiled paper umbrella left. He used the previous one. Otherwise, he could have placed the baby under the shelter of the oiled paper umbrella…
Just when Chu Jiang was in a dilemma, he suddenly noticed something unusual. Wait, where is that card? The card with the Ghost Bride that Michiko drew?
The previous card was clearly stuck on the baby’s chest, but now it has disappeared without a trace.
Chu Jiang took the baby out of his clothes and searched through it, but surprisingly, he couldn’t find that card. It’s as if it was accidentally lost, but how is that possible…
Suddenly! The sleeping baby grabbed hold of Chu Jiang’s wrist.
Chu Jiang’s body instantly froze as he saw the baby slowly open its eyes. But the expression in those eyes wasn’t what a normal baby should have. It was cold, lifeless, without any emotions.
