Chapter 395: Ha, Scumbag
No matter what, Chu Jiang quickly sealed the black concentrated ball, this thing doesn’t seem like a ghost servant, it’s more like something created with supernatural power.
Then, Chu Jiang put away the temporarily calmed five ghost dragons and hurried towards the Lanruo Temple in the illusionary world.
He planned to first bring Belfast out of the Ghost Abyss, and do it before the effects of 666 disappear.
Because Chu Jiang wasn’t sure if, when he tries to bring someone out for the second time, a new Yamata no Orochi would appear again.
If that’s really the case, Chu Jiang plans to forcibly send Sister Bel out first.
Previously, he actually thought it was just the main body, the oppressive feeling was terrifying after all, and the power to manipulate negative emotions brought him great threats…
On the other side, Soga Hayayuki turned into Kaguya-hime, and Tanakano turned into the old man who adopted her.
The most unfortunate one was Kujo Kazuki, he turned into a government official called "Ishikami Maru" in a island country, with the position of Chūnagon.
Kaguya-hime grew up to be extremely beautiful and famous far and wide. There were two princes, a chief minister, and two advisors who were deeply in love with her.
Kaguya-hime didn’t want to marry these ordinary men, so she set a test for them. She asked each of them to bring her five things: a stone bowl from in front of the Buddha, a jade branch from Mount Penglai, a fur coat made from fire rats, a pearl from the head of a dragon, and a shell from a swan’s nest.
Whoever could bring these things to her would be the one she would marry.
These five things were almost impossible to obtain. Kaguya-hime wanted them to give up, but the five suitors still tried to acquire them.
Two of them cheated, one of them spent money to buy from ancient Kyushu, one of them went to sea to slay a dragon, and one of them went to dig out a swan’s nest.
In the end, none of them had a good outcome, and the minister had the worst fate.
This "shell" called "Anbei" was used in ancient times in the island nation by pregnant women to help with childbirth by holding it in their hands.
There has long been a legend in the local area that the shape of this shell resembles a certain part of the female body, so when a pregnant woman grips it during childbirth, it is believed to bring safety to both the mother and child.
Therefore, the "Anbei" used by swans while laying their eggs is a special type of this shell.
This thing, if you think about it, you know it cannot exist. It is the most unbelievable one among the five treasures. And the other four are overseas, only the Subayara shell comes from a local legend.
However, Chunan, the royal adviser, still sent someone to search for the swallow nest. In the end, he even attempted to do it himself but fell from the sky and broke his waist.
And he thought he had found the Subayara shell, but when he opened his hand, it turned out to be a piece of dried, hard bird droppings.
This greatly discouraged Chunan and made him feel extremely ashamed. He was afraid that people would know about this and mock him because of it.
So, he couldn’t obtain the Subayara shell, his waist was broken, and he felt fearful and depressed in his heart, which caused Chunan to fall seriously ill.
After reading the letter of sympathy and consolation that Kaguya-hime had written to him, Chunan struggled to lift his pen and wrote a reply. But after finishing the letter, he took his last breath.
Kaguya-hime could only deeply apologize for this.
Present-day Kujo Kazuki, of course, is not going to pass away so quickly. However, if the story unfolds as planned, he will probably inevitably die in the illusory world.
……
Chu Jiang came back to his room at Lanruo Temple and was relieved to see Belfast still there.
At this moment, Sister Bel placed a piece of gold on the mattress according to the plot, and she was surprised to see Chu Jiang return.
She was about to say something, but when she saw Chu Jiang’s face, she was momentarily captivated…
Chu Jiang immediately reached out and held her hand, "I changed my mind, come with me."
Unexpectedly, Sister Bel suddenly hugged Chu Jiang and kissed him passionately.
Chu Jiang hesitated for a moment, but eventually fell into Belfast’s embrace.
The reason for this happening is because the number 666 has a side effect of "seduction," which affects both men and women. Chu Jiang was in a rush to come back earlier and put this matter out of his mind.
Looking at Sister Bel in his arms, who was blossoming with spring feelings, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
After passionately kissing Sister Bel back, Chu Jiang stopped her from touching him, saying, "Please behave yourself."
After speaking, Chu Jiang took out a rope and tied her behind him, then began to escape from Ghost Abyss again.
On the way, Chu Jiang seemed expressionless, but he was actually cursing himself as a "jerk" in his mind.
……
Just as they were about to leave Ghost Abyss, unsurprisingly, another Yamata no Orochi appeared.
This time, Chu Jiang was not scared by this ghostly creature and still had 666 remaining for the last minute.
He decisively used the same strategy as before, bombarding Yamata no Orochi fiercely! And he even skipped the step of sealing, directly rushing out of Ghost Abyss.
After succeeding, Chu Jiang was actually somewhat surprised. Can’t the actual body of that ghost come out freely?
Moreover, when he looked back, he suddenly saw dozens of large snakes appearing!
However, all the large snakes didn’t leave Ghost Abyss, and as Chu Jiang and his companions flew farther and farther away, the densely packed hundreds of snake heads all retracted back into Ghost Abyss.
At that moment, Belfast also changed. She held her head in pain and her figure started to flicker.
After about one or two minutes, Sister Bel’s body gradually stabilized and became clear. Her mind also started to wake up, and she remembered everything that happened before.
Chu Jiang immediately loosened the rope and looked at her with concern, "Are you okay?"
Belfast paused for a moment, then she immediately gritted her teeth and her chest heaved with anger, "You actually took advantage of me when I was vulnerable?!"
Chu Jiang was speechless, "You’re the one who threw yourself at me, and that was just a side effect of the Level 0 seal."
"You didn’t stop me? And why did you come back? I knew you, this jerk, couldn’t forget about me since the last time we met." Sister Bel angrily wiped her mouth.
Chu Jiang nodded candidly, "I’ve said it before – I want you."
"Of course, I respect your personal choice. Let’s talk about this after I stop your Sleep Talking. Right now, your thoughts are being controlled by that ghost, and I don’t want to see that."
When Chu Jiang mentioned sleep talking, Belfast became calm. She partly covered her lips, pondered for a moment, and then revealed a smile that showed she had everything under control.
"Is that so?"
Chu Jiang had a bad feeling. "What are you up to again? And why are you following me this time?"
Sister Bel shook her head. "This time, when I entered the Ghost Abyss, I didn’t receive the same protection from the gods as I did in El Paso City. Perhaps the gods foresaw this and wanted our relationship to deepen."
It was only now that Chu Jiang realized both he and Sister Bel had experiences dealing with the electronic world. Why did she not fall into the trap last time but fell for it this time?
So it was because of Sleep Talking playing tricks behind their backs…
"I understand now, Chu Jiang. Let me be your companion. I can stay with you for everything, day and night." Belfast changed her attitude and said in a tempting voice.
But Chu Jiang sighed. "I won’t act against you until I get rid of your god."
"Also, don’t disturb me this time. Go away and wait until I solve the Ghost Abyss." After saying that, Chu Jiang headed towards the Ghost Abyss again.
Belfast tactfully didn’t follow. She muttered to herself, "If you think my name is too long, you can call me Bella. Sister Bel sounds awful."
"Okay, Bella sister," Chu Jiang said without looking back.
Belfast clenched her fist, wanting to beat up the annoying brat, but forced herself to hold back.
"There’s something I need to remind you about. After I had a hallucination, I noticed some very scary things."
Chu Jiang stopped walking temporarily when he heard this.
"Those scary things are beneath the Ghost Abyss. I don’t know how to describe them, but I know that place is filled with a lot of negative emotions, dark thoughts, and all other kinds of bad things."
"If you get trapped there, even if you don’t die, you might never be able to get out. So I advise you to be cautious and not sacrifice yourself for a condition."
Chu Jiang pondered for a moment, "Understood. There are two women in this world that I can’t forget, and one of them is you, so I definitely won’t die down there."
"Ha, scumbag," Belfast heartlessly mocked.
