Chapter 267: Lying Flat and Waiting for Death

Next, Chu Jiang took out the Ghost Dragon Seal. He had used it once in the ancient castle. The five ghost dragons inside could help the holder resist supernatural attacks.

However, Chu Jiang was not very clear about the specific uses of the Ghost Dragon Seal and it needed testing.

Oh, by the way, this seal had a very fierce negative effect. It was almost impossible for normal people to use it. It would cause the person who touched the seal to die in various ways without noticing.

This could also be a type of curse, but it was ineffective against Chu’s Jiang, an upper-level ghost.

After Chu Jiang took out the thing, even though Duan Mingen couldn’t recognize what it was, it had a scary smell that made Duan Mingen instinctively nervous.

Not to mention a curse that would bring negative thoughts, he always felt like he would die at Chu Jiang’s hands.

"Don’t worry, this is not meant to be used directly against you."

Chu Jiang released the ghost dragon again and asked Duan Mingen to "practice" with him.

Then he realized that this thing was much more versatile than he imagined. It could both attack and defend, and he could even ride the dragon and fly.

"The Ninety-Ninth Break of the Way, Five Dragons’ Destruction…" Chu Jiang was reminded of the days when he used to watch "Bleach" anime.

……

In the remaining time, Chu Jiang took out the strange black box.

Duan Mingen felt very curious when he saw this thing. Chu Jiang didn’t explain much, he just asked Duan Mingen to come over and help him open the box together.

Finally… it couldn’t be opened.

What surprised Chu Jiang the most was that even with Chu’s Jiang’s power, he couldn’t open it??

So the Ghost Mirror at the headquarters must have been deceiving people. That sniper rifle couldn’t possibly open the box.

You see, the current Chu Jiang, although not fully transformed, could already distort the body of an S-class ghost forcefully. But now, he couldn’t do anything to this metal box.

This somehow indicates that this box is truly extraordinary.

Chu Jiang was thinking that once he fully awakened the power of Chu’s Jiang, he should be able to tear this box open, right?

If, even at that time, it still couldn’t be opened, even if someone told Chu Jiang that the secret of supernatural revival was hidden inside the box, he would believe it.

In any case, Chu Jiang decided to put away the black box. He felt that this thing could really deceive people in the future.

No one can stare at this thing for long, or else curiosity will become more and more severe, even leading to the desire to take it away and claim it as one’s own.

……

After releasing the Ghost Domain and returning to the office, Duan Mingen looked surprised for a moment. Is it over already??

In his imagination, he thought he would suffer terrible torture. He didn’t sleep last night. But he didn’t expect that it would end so easily when it came to the experiment.

Although he still carried a curse…

"How long do you think you’ll live?" Chu Jiang sat behind his desk, calmly looking at the Ghost Master.

From the previous sparring just now, Chu Jiang could also see that Duan Mingen’s condition was not good. His body had already been consumed by the Tunneling Ghosts for the most part.

"Not more than two months, maybe even shorter," Duan Mingen honestly answered.

"Well, if you manage to survive this experiment, I can authorize you to be transplanted with a second ghost at headquarters in my name. Of course, if you die during the transplant, then you’re dead."

Duan Mingen was pleasantly surprised, "Thank you, Captain!"

The risk during the transplantation process, Duan Mingen understood very well, but he didn’t care. What he lacked was this opportunity.

The folk Ghost Master chose the path of "balance," which is actually very difficult to find suitable ghosts. Most of the time, it’s a matter of life and death.

Some Ghost Masters couldn’t even get their hands on a sealed ghost, let alone be choosy.

Only by joining a large organization could one dare to say they have some certainty.

Chu Jiang waved his hand, "Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

Duan Mingen nodded forcefully, "Since Captain Chu is willing to give me an opportunity, I will definitely repay you."

"And my grudge with Sincerity Company won’t involve you and the local branch. Right now, all I want is to survive. Once I become truly powerful, then I’ll have the qualification to seek revenge against those people."

"What about after your revenge?" Chu Jiang continued to ask.

"I will still be your subordinate. You can assign me to do anything," Duan Mingen said firmly.

Chu Jiang simply said, "Talking about this is too far-fetched. You should focus on staying alive first."

"By the way, you must have come across the underground black market for selling ghosts, right? These days, help me purchase a few ghosts, any kind will do as long as they’re weak and cheap."

"Try to pay with money. If the other party refuses, you can add some supernatural props produced by the research institute."

"Specifically, talk to my assistant and the finance department about it. They will provide you with the necessary funds and resources."

Duan Mingen didn’t quite understand why Chu Jiang wanted to do this, but he nodded and said, "Actually, I also have a ghost that I secretly sealed and hid at Sincerity Company. Can I bring it to the captain?"

"What kind of ghost?" Chu Jiang didn’t refuse.

"Just a Hanged Ghost. It’s very dangerous for ordinary people, but it shouldn’t pose a threat to you."

"Alright, go and get it."

……

In the following two weeks, Chu Jiang kept observing himself and Duan Mingen’s condition.

In the past few days, Duan Mingen was still manageable, barely considered normal, except for his negative words.

On Chu Jiang’s side, the vengeful female ghost gradually started to come out from the diary, invading his body.

By the last second of the seventh day, Duan Mingen didn’t die, but his negative situation became even worse. He even felt like lying down and waiting for death.

Then came the eighth, ninth, and tenth day.

Duan Mingen still didn’t die, but his condition became more and more severe. Sometimes, even when facing Chu Jiang’s questions, he wouldn’t answer.

By the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth day, Duan Mingen had completely shut himself off from the world.

If his body hadn’t been severely affected by the ghost invasion, making it harder for him to die naturally, he would probably have died from not eating, drinking, or sleeping.

On the fourteenth day, Chu Jiang officially announced the end of the experiment.

If it doesn’t end soon, the curse on Duan Mingen will probably kill him directly.

It’s not like dying from hunger or thirst, but the curse will directly turn into a deadly force.

Chu Jiang also realized that the curse still has a 50% power to kill people, but it takes twice as long, fourteen days.

As for the removal, it’s quite simple. Right now, it’s a person who controls the curse, not a ghost. Chu Jiang just needs to take the curse back voluntarily.

Now let’s talk about Chu Jiang’s situation. In fact, on the third day, the cursed ghost had already completely come out of the Ghost Diary.

And this kind of "escape" within the rules didn’t cause any reaction from the Ghost Diary.

According to reason, at this point, Chu Jiang should have been killed by the escaped ghost, but…
