Chapter 393: The True Form of the Giant Snake?
The further Chu Jiang went into the depths of Ghost Abyss, the more his scalp tingled. Is this haunted place truly bottomless?
After descending for three hours, his speed increased and became more audacious, but he still couldn’t reach the bottom.
Looking up from where Chu Jiang currently stood, he could hardly see the sky of Ghost Abyss anymore, only a tiny dot of light.
Apart from the raindrops and the sounds, the surroundings became increasingly cold and eerie, making Chu Jiang feel like he was descending into the eighteenth level of hell…
Chu Jiang halted his steps. He couldn’t go on like this anymore.
He doubted that there was no end to this way. He must find the real body of Yamata no Orochi. But where is it? It disappeared after having an illusion.
The story in the illusion world progressed quickly. The scene of the conversation between the woman and the old lady under the moon has started. Next, it’s Nie Xiaoqian’s turn to appear.
Chu Jiang looked up and ignored that side. He was only thinking about how to make Yamata no Orochi come out.
However, at that moment, he suddenly heard footsteps and smelled a familiar person.
Chu Jiang looked up and was shocked to find that Belfast in a black robe had appeared not far in front of him, seemingly out of nowhere.
Moreover, Sister Bel actually started a conversation with the woman and the old lady in the illusion world. "If grandma doesn’t praise me, who will say I’m good?"
This made Chu Jiang cover his eyes in disbelief. How did you come here? Did you follow me all the way?
And why are you Nie Xiaoqian? You even speak the lines so proficiently. Oh, right, Sister Bel seems to be a mixed-race, so it’s not surprising if she has seen "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio"…
This made Chu Jiang overturn his previous thoughts. Could it be that next, Soga Hayayuki, Kujo Kazuki, and the person named "Tanakano" will also appear in this Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio script??
But they probably don’t know this story, right? Or maybe it’s not necessary for them to know, as long as the main character of the story, which is Chu Jiang, knows.
Thinking this, Chu Jiang let go and turned his gaze towards Sister Bel, who was "too immersed in the role".
Actually, before setting off this time, I had already contacted the Holy Word Religion.
Chu Jiang’s idea is: I’ll handle the S-class ghost on my own; after the Soga family collects all the Honping Bells from the national shrines later on, you can come and help me identify them.
It turned out that Belfast is a stalker, which was unexpected. Last time, when Chu Jiang and Jade went to deal with the false god, she followed them.
This time, even though Chu Jiang came to Ghost Abyss alone, she still managed to keep up, and her methods were very clever; she wasn’t even discovered by Chu Jiang.
All of this made Chu Jiang suspect if it was related to that flyer, to the point where he overlooked Sister Bel’s aura, which was present near him.
Although Chu Jiang has always been guarded against this woman, he can’t deny that she really captivates him, so he can’t let Belfast die here.
Forget it, Chu Jiang shook his head, a bad woman should still be saved, hopefully, after getting rid of the sleep talking, the bad woman can become a good woman.
Chu Jiang walked straight towards Belfast, wanting to bring her closer to him.
But what horrified him was that his hand actually passed through Sister Bel, as if Sister Bel was also part of an illusion world.
Moreover, these three people in front of him seemed to be unaware of Chu Jiang’s approach, because in the play "Chats at the Fairy Cottage," Ning Caichen should have peeked for a while and then returned to sleep, without daring to come forward and start a conversation.
Chu Jiang frowned and thought for a while, then turned back temporarily to his house in the illusion world. Soon, "Nie Xiaoqian" should come to him and seduce him on her own.
……
Sure enough, after Sister Bel and Grandma finished their conversation, they quietly entered Chu Jiang’s room.
At the moment she pushed the door open, Chu Jiang shouted in a proper manner, "Who’s there?!"
Sister Bel first greeted him politely and then softly said, "Sir, no need to be nervous. I am a well-bred young lady living in the vicinity of the Fairy Cottage."
"Tonight, under the perfect moonlight, I find it hard to fall asleep. I have admired your handsome appearance during the day, so I came here to spend a pleasant evening together."
What a sleepless night under the moon, Chu Jiang murmured to himself.
Then he took the initiative to step forward and tentatively held Sister Bel’s hand. This time, he finally succeeded, because in this scene, the two of them had a scene together.
After touching, Chu Jiang didn’t follow the script and just said, "Coincidentally, I am also worried and unable to sleep."
Sister Bel blinked her eyes like water ripples and smiled lightly, "Although young, you carry the worries of a thousand years, my lord."
Before the other party finished speaking, Chu Jiang interrupted and said, "Days are short and nights are long, why not enjoy a candlelit stroll?"
After saying that, he picked up the candlestick from the illusionary world and dragged Belfast to leave.
Moreover, when it’s said that he was leaving, Chu Jiang was clearly going along the path he came from.
He wanted to take this opportunity to bring fully immersed Sister Bel out of the Ghost Abyss, otherwise who knew if she would permanently stay here and become a part of the illusionary world.
Sister Bel was a little confused, but at this moment, she remembered that she was Nie Xiaoqian and needed to find a way to extract the bookworm’s blood for her grandmother to drink. So, for now, she pretended to go along with the other party’s actions.
Like this, Chu Jiang’s feet moved rapidly, almost lifting Belfast into the air, and even using the Ghost Domain in the end.
But just as the two were about to leave the edge of the Ghost Abyss, Chu Jiang saw a snake!
To be precise, he saw giant snake heads, one after another, emerging from the walls of the Ghost Abyss. They were all black, with smooth and shiny scales, and blood-red eyes.
They stared at Chu Jiang with lifeless, indifferent eyes, devoid of any human emotion.
In that instant, Chu Jiang’s breath almost stopped, and all kinds of negative emotions surged within him, overwhelming his will.
Chu Jiang’s expression twisted, and his body trembled slightly, as if he were fighting against an invisible force.
After a few moments, Chu Jiang clenched his teeth and barely restrained the turmoil within him. He suppressed the overwhelming negative emotions, refusing to drive himself crazy.
Next to Chu Jiang, Sister Bel seemed unaffected as she looked at him suddenly stopping. "Master? We’ve already gone far from the temple. Where are you taking me?"
Chu Jiang temporarily disregarded Sister Bel, who was immersed in her role, and took a deep breath, looking at the eight motionless snake heads staring at him.
Why doesn’t this scary ghost come over to kill? Is it because he hasn’t stepped out of the Ghost Abyss boundary yet?
Anyway, Chu Jiang unexpectedly forced out the true form of Yamata no Orochi, although it was in a situation he didn’t really want.
There’s no other way, what needs to be done next is to keep Sister Bel away and find a way to seal this ghost…
